Acquired knowledge

The moment Ha Joon's back slammed against the ground, he felt it, a vast amount of knowledge within him had opened up.

Knowledge of things he had never heard of before began to fill up in his brain. His eyes turned red as his body violently stopped on the ground.

Merlin hastily landed on the ground, sprinting towards Ha Joon before she yelled at the lightning bird.

"Keep the Demigod distracted!"

And the bird obeyed, launching itself forward with a boom and slamming directly into the body of the demigod.

The impact caused a massive explosion, one so grand it caused the ground to implode on itself and send debris flying far and wild.

Merlin was now standing right in front of Ha Joon, a barrier summoned to protect them from the flying rocks and dust.

"Hey! Ha Joon! Ha Joon! Can you hear me?!" Merlin called out, looking over her shoulder while simultaneously observing the battle between her monster and the Demigod.

Ha Joon slowly opened his eyes.

"So that's how it is." He said with a calm voice.

"Oh thank goodness, you're awake. I'll give you an earful once all this is over, but are you alright?" Merlin asked.

Before Ha Joon could speak -

[You have sustained severe damage to three of your rib cages, medical attention is greatly advised.]

'Of course, that was a direct hit, I didn't expect the god to turn into clouds… sigh, I can't learn a healing skill right now, so I have no choice.'

Ha Joon turned to Merlin, firstly, he activated his own barrier in front of her, and then he spoke -

"My barrier will keep us covered, I need you to heal me, I know how to subdue the demigod."

"Are you insane?!" Merlin turned around to face him, her barrier disappearing, "Do you realize how close you were to dying? That is a demigod? That is no ordinary being , you can't be reckless every-"

"Do you trust me?".

"This is not about trust, one fatal hit from that thing and you'll be dead…. Even I can't -".

"I won't die." Ha Joon replied with a smile.

"Why don't you stand up and say that to face me." Merlin replied.

"A slight miscalculation on my part, but this time, I need you to trust me…".

Merlin stared at him for a while, and just a few seconds in, she heard the cries of the lightning bird, it was getting bullied to the wall, the demigod slamming its horn directly at the bird.

"Argh! Fine, but I swear to the gods, if you die, I'll kill you myself!" She went to her knees, and stretched out her hand before healing him.

With a smile, Ha Joon laid there, allowing her to fix him up.

[All three of your rib cages have been healed.]

'Very good.'

Ha Joon immediately stood up from the ground, massaging his hand while looking at the demigods.

Somehow, the second demigod had freed itself and was racing towards its partner.

"Let's do this thing." Ha Joon pulled off his jacket and wrapped it around his waist.

"I'll come with you."

"No, you'll only hold me back, no offense, but your thighs are too seductive." Ha Joon replied.

Merlin frowned, "I wasn't as-"

"And also, Just so you know, I was looking at your boobs the whole whole time."

Merlin's face turned red as Ha Joon zoomed off, a boom echoing behind him.

The two demigods, in a single clash, collide with one another, a huge light glowing in between as they form merge into one.

Watching this, Ha Joon still remained calm, he was getting closer.

A huge roar echoed from their midst, and the moment the light dimmed, a huge bull appeared, one with glowing markings all over its body.

Its eyes glowed and the energy around its body was two times its normal size. The demi gods had taken a new form.

Ha Joon, stopped in front of the Demigod, staring at it directly in the eye.

"A mortal dares to stand before us?" The demi uttredd, it's voice shaking the ground, "We merged, and once we complete our transformation, people of Camelot will feel our-".

"Yeah yeah, the whole bit. Say, I don't have time for all your words and godly speech, so why don't you step forward and watch your secret unravel." Ha Joon chimed in with a devious smile on his face while he pointed at the gods.

"You insolent child!!!"

The demi gods yelled in anger as it charged towards Ha Joon.

Ha Joon leaped up, his hand touching the head of the Bull as he flipped himself over.

"You, who call yourself the unstoppable trio, a false demigod stolen from a false identity."

Ha Joon landed behind the demigod, his hand now surrounded by flames as the demigod turned around, charging once again.

"You were nothing more than mere beast mortals, until you were cursed to become the beast of the land, a danger to gods when the three of you combined… tasked with the mission to kill the very god that looked over your kind, Pegula."

The demi god's eyes opened when he noticed, the more Ha Joon spoke, the more it felt like its body was getting weaker.

It tried to slam Ha Joon with its horn, but just like before, Ha Joon was able to evade it.

"But you three didn't, Pegula was a god you all worshiped, killing him didn't feel right, and so you decide to be his disciple, neglecting the duty that was given to you!".

"Shut up!!! How dare you speak such ludicracy!!!"

The demigod opened its mouth, sending an energy blast that hurtled towards Ha Joon.

Ha Joon reacted quickly, using his skill to construct a shield to help divide the blast into two paths.

Each path getting destroyed by the blast.

"Thus you were never the manifestation of the god of beasts, Pegula, you never were, you were just mortals cursed with negative power from a god who never ruled. You are not a demigod, you are simply a false demigod!!!".

The demigod fell on one knee, the blast leaving its mouth shot to the side as it lost balance.

It was losing its energy, and Ha Joon didn't stop.

[You have gathered all needed knowledge regarding the false demigod.]

"And so I pray, Decide for the law of the world, and cower under the might of my knowledge, I Ha Joon Kim permits that… Syncro!!!".

It felt like there was a sudden connection between Ha Joon and the demigod. But it was more than that.

The moment Ha Joon Kim uncovered everything about the demigods, he stole not only their authority, but also their powers and energy.

He was now able to tame them.
