99. Should Have Not Met (3)

“Kuhahaha!”

“…..”

The crack that was formed by his fists weren’t filled with swords.

His subordinates that he hid were filled to the brim there.

I immediately banished Iceberg.

It was supposed to block his attack, but there was no point in using it anymore.

They were all emitting a red glow.

The tear in the air wasn’t big enough for me to confirm their forms properly.

It was then.

The tear suddenly grew big enough to cover the ruins of the city.

Almost as if opening a bag of chips, the tear had grown big in an instant.

When the background behind him was completely enveloped in darkness, I could clearly see their forms and numbers.

It seemed that there were roughly three thousand there.

They resembled dolls, but didn’t appear to be human.

Pale blue mist were escaping their mouths.

With their forms hunched over, they fidgeted around with their sharp fingers.

Were they monsters?

As I cleared dungeons and defended monsters against portals, I had defeated a vast variety of monsters with different levels.

However, I had never encountered these monsters before.

These monsters weren’t from the Unknown Dungeon either.

Zekill opened his mouth.

“Seems you’re quite surprised.”

“…..”

“Try to jeer at me once more! You say that the portal explosions failed? You claimed that I did not have many subordinates left!”

“……”

“I’ve waited for 20 years! For this day!”

“What are they? Those monsters?”

“Kuha! Did you really think that the portals were blown up just to cause superficial harm with the monsters inside of them! Massive amounts of magical energy are already present in this world. The monsters that escaped through portals connecting to the world of monsters died here, adding on to the flow of mana. All for this day!”

Zekill was saying things I could not comprehend.

Monsters had appeared here on this planet through the portals explosions.

When they died, they left behind magical energy behind, and it seemed that he summoned these creatures using that very same energy.

This would mean that Zekill could control these beings.

My confusion only intensified.

At the same time, I thought of the portal explosions in Gapyeong and Incheon.

It was revealed to me that the portal explosions in these two areas weren’t prepared by the radical faction.

This meant that either the portal explosions occurred naturally or was set off by another party.

The worst case scenario meant that there were those with the same goal as Zekill out there.

“So, you’re saying that you used the magical energy to summon them?”

“For a kid, you catch on pretty quick.”

Zekill pointed at the creatures behind him and continued to speak.

“If they all die… Hue… Huehahahah! A greater magical energy residue will be left behind. And a greater one after that! More! More! More! Far stronger! Do you understand now! Eventually, I will dominate the entire world!”

“Oh boy. Who are you to summon them?”

“Kuhaha! Think about it thoroughly in hell!”

“Right. Seems no one is a pushover until they get hit. Guess I’ll be a little bit patient for now.”

Zekill’s hand pointed towards me and commanded them to attack.

I wasn’t sure if he was telling the truth or not.

To be honest, I had no idea what was happening at all.

I just wanted to pull the radical faction that was being a thorn on my side by its roots.

I didn’t know what magical energy or a demon realm was all about.

There was only one thing I could do now.

Killing Zekill.

“That just means I don’t have to touch them, right? Pretty easy.”

“Do you really think it’ll be easy as you assume! Kuhahah!”

“I’ll just have to confirm it myself then. Now shut up and become an addition to my stats.”

I move at an insane speed.

Using my strength stat that was beyond 20,000, I pushed off the ground to move.

And the very same strength stat would be used to swing this sword to lob off Zekill’s head.

However…

-SLICE!

“Haaa…. Ha…….”

“No way…..”

The impossible had occurred.

The creatures that escaped from the tear leapt to become his meat shields, being cut apart as they tried to defend Zekill.

It was obvious that they would guard Zekill.

On top of that, it was probably to summon even more of these monsters.

However, what I was surprised by was their speed.

Even if they had the advantage of being closer to Zekill than I, they had recognized my movements and reacted against it.

I couldn’t believe it.

They were on a whole different level compared to the monsters that I had faced so far.

-SLICE! SLICE! SLICE!

“…. These bastards….”

To make sure that they couldn’t predict my movements, I kept altering my stance as I moved.

However, the results were the same.

These creatures already saw through my movements perfectly.

Tens of hundreds of them used their bodies to block my sword.

I could hear Zekill’s laughter coming from between the gaps of the creatures, almost as if he had predicted this ahead of time.

“Kuhaha… Ku! KUHAHAHA!”

“These troublesome pricks.”

“Oh my. Looks like you can’t handle this difficult combat, hm? Kuhaha!

“It looks like you summoned them to die? Since they die easily from being cut apart half-assedly. Not sure about their offensive or defensive capabilities, but I’ll give credit to their speed.”

“Credit….. What an arrogant word for someone who will be subjugated. You can’t make progress with your wild flailing. Hurry up and kill more. I require more magical energy. I’ll summon more powerful evil spirits for you!”

“If you wish, I’ll do that. But even though I could supply as much magical energy, it’ll be difficult for you to summon anything.”

“…..”

“Starting from your wrists, your entire body will be cut apart. I’ll start now. Show time.”

“Hm…. Quite persistent you are.”

“Ha. My my. Ridiculous.”

-SLICE! SLICE! SLICE!

“Ugh.”

Even though the numbers decreased as they died as meatshields, there were still an enormous amount of numbers left.

Just with Zekill’s gesture of pointing towards me, packs of them came.

Their sharp nails and incredible speed were used to leave cuts on me.

The injuries only amounted to this only because of my ridiculously high stamina stat.

I had 50k worth of stamina stats after all.

Even for me, it was difficult to see their movements.

Casting all the buffs on me, I casted Meteor.

The number summoned were 6.

If I couldn’t do any damage to Zekill, I planned to annihilate all of the meat shields and kill Zekill while they were respawning.

“Kuru. Kelkeru.”

“Kureh.”

As soon as they saw Meteor, they covered Zekill with their bodies, forming a protective barrier.

Their bodies melted down into one huge half circle.

I thought it as a quite the pesky ability for creatures such as monsters to have.

I poured down Meteor on them.

At the same time, I casted Eye of Insight.

I had to find Zekill as soon as they all perished.

There was no way I could see his form without it, since the massive flames and intense impact from Meteor would make it impossible otherwise.

-CRASH!

“Now.”

-SLICE!

“KUAAAAA!”

“Got you.”

No matter how strong Zekill was, in front of my attack, he was nothing more than an Awakened beginner.

WIth my precise attack, I cut off one of his arms.

Zekill’s eyes that were dark as night became larger.

It seemed that he was rather shocked.

Purple blood spewed forth from his shoulder.

The blood was rather thick, similar to thick mud.

There more I thought about it, the less it made sense.

Purple blood?

What kind of nonsense was this.

“What are you?”

-CRACK.

I grabbed a hold of his neck.

I did have the Eye of Insight, but it would be annoying if he suddenly hid his form and continued to summon more demonic spirits.

In front of my absolute power, all he could do was suffer as he choked.

Without Ghost or Dark Lady, this would have been impossible to even dream of.

The overboss of the radical faction was on his knees from one hit without being able to strike once.

Even his current form looked pathetic.

There were many things I wanted to ask him.

Magical energy, demonic spirits, and even the purple blood that just spewed out were all on the list.

Looking into his pitch black eyes, I spoke.

“Thanks to you cheering me on, it looks like things wrapped up nice and easy.”

-COUGH.

“To think that I would end up like this against a lesser lifeform. This is impossible….”

“Speak. What are you?”

“Kuyaaa!”

Even though he was suppressed completely, he was attacking away.

The reason why he did not carry any weapons came into light.

His hand morphed into a weapon and attacked me.

“Ha. This bastard.”

A pathetic attack aimed perfectly at my heart struck.

It barely pierced the armor, but it was far too weak to go through my body.

It felt as though a needle had pricked me.

“That’s right. It’s not enough with just one arm.”

-Slice!

“KAHHHH!”

“Next is your leg. I asked what you are.”

I stabbed my sword into his abdomen and reduced the strength of my grip on his neck.

He hung powerlessly to the ground.

Letting out labored breathing, he began to speak.

“Did you say something about a lower species? Just how much of a superior species are you to kneel before me like this?”

“Kuh…. Kuh…..”

“…….”

“I am one of the 4 demonic races in the demonic realm.”

“Demonic race? This is quite the news. When are you making your debut as an author? Seems you’re writing a fantasy?”

I turned the sword that was embedded in his abdomen.

I no longer wished to hear anymore bullshit.

His agonizing cries rang even louder.

“KUWAAAA!”

“I don’t like repeating myself.”

“Purian, Lubeta, Keruoh, Dabehneh. These are the four demonic races of the demon world.”

“First talking nonsense about magical energy and demonic spirits, then purple blood, and now talking about monsters that seems to possess some kind of intelligence. To top it all off, you’re telling me about demonic races?”

“Kuhu……”

“Continue.”

“The 4 demonic races are gathering strength to obtain one another’s territory.”

“…..”

“Out of the four, I rule the Purian, which is the weakest out of them all.”

“So.”

“That was why we avoided the eyes of the other demonic races and tried to increase our magic energy here on Earth in an attempt to win the war.”

“Hey. It’s been 40 years since the first portals formed. Didn’t you say that you came here 20 years ago? If you already have conflict in a setting like this… What should I do. It makes me want to cut again. Don’t you agree?”

“Kuhuk! 40 years ago, the devil king who was from the Lubeta declared a ceasefire. It was to reduce the bloodshed between the races and to expand to new territories. However, the other 3 demonic races used that time to grow stronger while keeping up appearances.”

“So the place you selected was here?”

“That’s right. I used all of my magic energy to connect the demonic realm with this world, forming portals. After that, I used the corpses of the monsters that died outside of the portals to recover my magical energy, waiting for this very moment. But I was foiled by a single human, even though your species are so puny…..”

“Quite the amusing story. But you know….”

There was a need for me to obtain more information from him, even if what he spat out were nothing more than lies.

98. Should Have Not Met (2)

In an instant, I defeated the monster with many arms that went by the name of Mutant Ogre.

Starting from their split head, I ripped its body to shreds.

They were a lot sturdier than I expected.

It had 100% physical resistance as well as some magic resistance.

However, they stood no chance against my attacks.

After taking them down, it didn’t take long before the sound of a helicopter filled the air.

It was probably the helicopter that Ho Jin, Jong Ho, and commander Yoon Jong-sun were riding on.

I summoned massive Meteors in the sky so that the helicopter would recognize that it was me and land nearby.

I had finished defeating all the monsters heading from Choe-jeon Bang to downtown.

Due to the start of the Gamman-Dong portal, there was no way to know how many monsters were left.

After covering the nearby area in dust, the helicopter’s propeller stopped.

The members within came out one by one.

“Huh?”

Out of those that stepped out, there was someone that I didn’t expect to see.

It was the Korean magician ranker Choi So-Hyeon.

When the portals exploded previously, she didn’t make any moves.

However, she was here with the commander.

It made me realized once more just how big the impact of the explosions of the portals was this time around.

I had only seen her on TV.

Looking at her in person, I could tell that she had a hidden smile that the cameras could never capture.

It was enough to justify why she had the popularity rivaling that of celebrities.

After looking around the surroundings, the commander came up to me and spoke.

“So, you were already here before us.”

“Yes. The monsters nearby have been mostly taken care of.”

“Right, good work. Have you not found the location of the overboss yet?”

“Yes. I know that Zekill is here for sure, but I haven’t found his exact whereabouts. Despite looking for him while taking care of the monsters, I haven’t seen him at all.”

“I heard as I was coming here that you took care of one of the leaders of the radical faction. Is it true?”

“Yes. Did you hear from Ho Jin?”

“Yeah. Hey! So what I heard wasn’t the screams of a monster! It was the sound of people dying! How can you lie so easily like that?”

“Ah…. I’ve never thought of them as people….”

“Even still!”

“Mr. Min-Cheol, are you hurt anywhere?”

“Yes. As you can see, I fine.”

“But who is that person in the back….”

“Ah. You already know, right? Ms. Choi So-Hyeon. Met her at the Changwon portal and came together.”

“Is that so. Glad to meet you. I’m Kim Min-Cheol.”

“Yes.”

She had the fear and respect of all the Awakened, as well as being the goal for them to reach.

Against monsters, none could match her combat capability in the entire world.

Only a few months ago, I also had the burning desire to become as strong as her.

The strength, wealth, and title she had, I envied.

But now, the situation was completely flipped over.

She had seen the countless magic pour forth from Jong Ho’s ring.

With just that, she must have realized that she wasn’t the best anymore.

On top of that, I was easily more powerful than Jong Ho and the commander.

I could sense her gaze that was filled with caution from the start.

However, that didn’t matter right now.

“Commander.”

“Please speak.”

“There is an unknown number of Mutant Ogres between here and the portals still alive. I had only taken care of those that were heading to center of the city.”

“I see. From the damage done here, I can see that they shouldn’t be made light of.”

“Yes. Thankfully, as I fought them, I found out that magic does work against them. However, it looks like they have quite a lot of magic resistance.”

“Hmm….. Not only do they have physical resistance, but magical resistance as well? This won’t be easy.”

“That’s why we cannot separate our forces right now. It would be too difficult for a single person to face against one.”

“…..”

“Not only that, we do not know when Zekill will approach.”

“You’re right. If that’s the case….”

“Firstly, I’ll go find Zekill myself. Of course, I’ll take care of any monsters I come across.”

“Min-Cheol, will you be okay alone?”

“Don’t worry about that, hyung-nim.”

To Jong Ho, who had tears in his eyes with worry, I raised three of my fingers at him.

It was a gesture to show that I had gained 30k worth of stats.

He must’ve heard by now that I had taken care of Dark Lady’s forces at Incheon.

Seeing this, he was quietly repeating to himself something about 30k with a blank expression.

The commander, who was clueless as to what was going on between the two, continued on.

“If that’s the case, we’ll hunt the monsters together and rendezvous at the portal. Would that be okay?”

“Yes. Sounds like a good plan.”

“All right.”

“You must have heard from Mr. Ho Jin that Gapyeong Calbongsan has Pierro situated there.”

“Yes. After hearing that, I did not deploy any Awakened there.”

“Yes. From what I found out by questioning Dark Lady, they were only ordered to intercept those who were trying to get to the portal. Even if we head there after taking care of this, there shouldn’t be that much damage there. Of course, this is not accounting the damage from the monsters……”

“I had hoped that it was a portal where physical attacks would work but…. All of the magician class Awakened have headed to Yangpyeong. The damage they took is so severe that it’s difficult to describe it with just words.”

“Guess all we can do is take care of the situation here as fast as possible.”

“That’s is the case.”

“If Zekill heads for the commander…. Jong Ho hyung-nim.”

“Hm?”

“Please detonate a Meteor in the air. I’ll take that as a signal to head there immediately.”

“Alright, I got it. Be careful.”

“Yes. All of you, be careful as well.”

“Understood.”

“Yes. Then I’ll be off.”

****

After Min-Cheol left, the commander spoke while looking towards Jong Ho, Ho Jin, and Choi So-Hyeon.

“Did you say that your name is Jong Ho?”

“Yes, that’s right, commander.”

“Right. I heard your accomplishments from Ho Jin.”

“…..”

“Everyone is probably aware of this already, but this fight won’t be easy.”

“…..”

“…..”

“Perhaps it would be more accurate to say that we can only trust in our boy Min-Cheol.”

“Is that person…. that amazing?”

Choi So-Hyeon frowned as she asked.

She didn’t doubt Jong Ho because she had seen his ability firsthand, but that kid seemed barely fit to be a high schooler.

For even the commander to say something like this, this was a situation she could not understand.

At that, the commander continued.

“Thank you for coming out to help, Ms. So-Hyeon.”

“…..”

“It may be difficult for you to acknowledge that, but it’s the truth.”

“But…..”

“I do not know of his ability as well. However, that’s not the important thing now.”

“…..”

“How about hoping that this battle ends with us being safe for now.”

“Yes…..”

“Thank you. As our boy Min-Cheol has said, we need to work together right now.”

“Yes.”

“Yes.”

“Monsters will be monsters, but Zekill is probably a bigger threat.”

At his words, everyone nodded.

“Mr. Jong Ho.”

“Yes, commander.”

“Our mana is limited.”

“Huh?”

“Please handle the offensive.”

“Ah… Yes! Understood.”

“Ho Jin, So-Hyeon, and I will use the minimum amount of mana possible to focus on the defense.”

“Yes.”

“So-Hyeon. Please assist the attack with Jong Ho just enough for you to recover mana with your special ability. I believe that you already understand any attacks beyond that would only serve to weaken our defense.”

“Yes, commander. Understood.”

“From where we stand right now, please cast your defensive skill on the personal diagonally to the right of you. I’ll say it again. I’ll cast mine on Jong Ho. Jong Ho will cast it on So-Hyeon. So-Hyeon will cast hers on Ho Jin. Finally, Ho Jin will cast it on me. Even if our formations change, this rule does not change. Understood?”

“Yes.”

“Understood.”

“Then let us go. There cannot be any more losses.”

With the commander in the lead, they tread forwards to subjugate the monsters.

With Jong Ho’s attacks, the monsters shouldn’t be too difficult to handle.

However, when Min-Cheol and the commander’s worry of Zekill approaching near comes true, it would become a difficult fight.

****

-CRASH!

-BOOM!

“KUWEHHH.”

“Where is he?”

With my massive strength stat, I kicked off the ground and rapidly scanned around the area.

I searched everywhere to the point where I returned to the location I started at.

However, Zekill was nowhere to be found.

The buildings from the portal to here were all destroyed, which made it more difficult to find the monsters and him.

From far away, I could hear the sounds of destruction from the spells Jong Ho was spamming down.

Even as I took down the monsters, I continued look towards the direction of the sound to check.

It would be a huge crisis if Zekill appeared there first.

It was then.

An intense gale blew.

It was so intense that without the shield, I wouldn’t have been able to open my eyes due to the dust kicked up.

A cyclone of debris from the buildings and dust came towards me.

I felt it then.

Zekill was in the eye of the storm.

Almost as if to tell me that my instincts were correct, I heard his voice.

“Kuhaha.”

“……”

“Have you come here of your own will!”

“…..”

The sandstorm cleared and I saw his form in front of me.

A giant man roughly 3m.

An equally massive tattered cloak hung from his back, and he was equipped with armor dark as midnight.

His eyes were dark to the point where I found it strange.

As I was inspecting his form, I noticed that nothing was in his hands.

That meant that he had no weapon.

I spoke towards him.

“Are you Zekill?”

Instead of giving an answer to my question, he replied back with a question.

“Joker. Ghost. Dark Lady. You were the one who killed them all.”

“Looks like you know me well, so there won’t be a need for introductions.”

“Pathetic weakling.”

“Looks like the portals that you worked so hard to prepare are nearly cleared up. What shall we do?”

“……”

“The only thing that’s left is you and the discarded small fries in Gapyeong.”

“KUHAHAHAHAHA!”

Instead of being taken back, Zekill was laughing out loudly.

Was he that confident in his strength?

That was the only logical conclusion that I could come up with right now.

After laughing for awhile, he spoke again.

“This is enough.”

“What?”

“With the portals that have exploded so far, it’s already enough.”

“What are you saying?”

After speaking gibberish that I couldn’t understand, he curled both of his hands into fists.

Then he punched the air on each of his sides.

Almost as if there was an invisible wall, the collision caused the earth to buckle.

Just like the skill Joker used before, a crack formed.

It must be the skill that Executioners have, just like Joker did.

I was sure that many sword auras would form and pour out from there.

“Are you also an Executioner?”

“Kuhaha.”

‘Iceberg.’

I casted Iceberg around him, just like the time when I had blocked Joker’s attacks.

However, nothing came out of there for despite a lot of time passing by.

When he punched the air once more…

-CRACK!

“KUHAHAHAHA!”

“…… What the……”

97. Should Have Not Met

After the commander finished talking with Ho Jin, he took up his phone to command Lee Sang-Ho and the other 2 magician rankers to head for the portal in Yangpyeong.

The call reported a dire situation.

The portal explosions affected a massive area.

They were defended against, but it was at the cost of many casualties.

On top of that, most of the Awakened magicians had expended their mana.

There was a way for the healer class to recharge the magicians’ mana by transferring their own.

However, they could only transfer up to their mana pool.

Thus, this meant that there was a limit as to how much mana they could transfer.

Hearing this, the commander’s expression didn’t look well.

That was to be expected, as the monsters they were currently dealing with were on another level altogether.

On top of that, the portal explosions occurred at 11 separate locations.

Most of those from the guild are summoned against their will to the scene.

However, since the nation was in a crisis, they volunteered willingly. Only due to their efforts was the situation contained at this level.

The call ended, but the commander kept staring at the smartphone.

The entire status of the nation was being reported to him, piece by piece.

Letting out a big sigh, he spoke.

“Ha…. What a dire situation…..”

“So the situation over there isn’t so good.”

“That’s right. I think I’ll have to make the call.”

“What do you mean….”

“The forces that headed out to Yangpyeong have taken too many casualties. However, it is true that the damage in Busan is far worse. Many innocent civilians are being butchered.”

“…..”

“I did make the call for them to go….. However, it looks like I could lose the lives that I hold so dear to me.”

“What will you do? After stopping the portal in Changwon, he’s heading to Yangpyeong…..”

“It seems that he’ll have to go to Busan as well.”

“Huh?”

“Look at this. What you predicted wasn’t wrong.”

The commander put the phone screen up to Ho Jin’s face.

The title read ‘Portal Explosion Scene of Gamman-dong Busan’.

Busan was currently a location where drone or Awakened would go missing if they were sent there.

That’s why no one knew of the situation until now.

Scrolling down the screen, Ho Jin saw pictures and data.

The portal exploded at Gamman-dong, moved through Dong-gu, and now was at Jung-gu.

Everything was being destroyed without discrimination by the monsters.

Massive loss of human life followed.

When the screen scrolled to the bottom of the page, there was a single low resolution picture that looked as though it was taken far away that caught Ho Jin’s eyes.

There was a single person’s form.

Looking at that, Ho Jin was surprised as he spoke.

“Is that…. This man is….”

“That’s right. This man is probably the overboss of the radical faction.”

“The one that Mr. Min-Cheol mentioned, Zekill.”

With the portal at his back, he looked upon the monsters.

That was Zekill.

Receiving the phone back from Ho Jin, the commander spoke in a very low raspy voice.

“Aging is a cruel thing. I am still running with heavy burdens on my shoulders because of my greed. But it’s not really a burden because I’m doing it due to my own desires….”

Ho Jin had been looking at him for 20 years, but this was the first time that he saw him open up like this.

He always encouraged and raised the morale of those around him.

However, he had become the symbol of righteousness.

What form did that righteousness take to bring him pain, Ho Jin could only listen in silence.

“When…. I have to make decisions like this…. I feel enough pain and agony to make me regret the path that I have walked. The tale of my life that everyone who hears it considers it to be a shameless life.”

“…..”

“Sacrifices always follow my decisions. Each decision I make, many innocent people lose their lives.”

“Commander, you can’t help it…..”

“Hey Ho Jin….. Everyone says the same thing. That it’s a choice that can’t be helped and it was the best call you could’ve made.”

“…..”

“However, now I’m afraid. Even if I’m consoled like so. Even if I try to make peace with myself. Now, I’m afraid.”

“Commander…..”

With weight in his voice, Yoon Jong-sun spoke.

He was looking at the sky.

The sky was clear and blue without a single speck of cloud, contrasting with the current gruesome situation.

His eyes were wet from the blinding sunlight.

He took a moment to organize his thoughts before speaking to Ho Jin once more.

It would mean that he made his decision.

“Head to Busan.”

“…..”

“Please request Min-Cheol and the man heading to Yangpyeong to head Busan instead.”

“Yes… Understood, commander.”

“Ah… The clear sky seems saddening. Alright, let us go. Time is short.”

“Yes…”

****

-ring ring

“Dark Lady. Did you find something special to report.”

“Is that you? The one called Zekill?”

Zekill, who had picked up the phone was speechless for awhile.

It seemed that he was trying to make sense of what was happening.

“…..”

“Nice to meet you. I should’ve contacted you earlier, but it seems I’m a bit late?”

“Who are you…”

“Me? Well… What should I say… Ah! Joker and Ghost’s friend. A very very close friend.”

“Kuuu….. You!”

“Enough of that. Dark Lady is slowly dying right now. When are you coming?”

“Overconfident bastard. I’ll rip your tongue out.”

“How scary.”

“…..”

“I’ll give you 10 minutes. Pulling tongues or whatever, just hurry up and meet with me.”

“Dark Lady….. Turn the phone over to her.”

“Now I feel like I’m the bad guy in a hostage situation.”

Changing the phone to speaker mode, I brought it near Dark Lady.

Glancing towards me, she cautiously opened her mouth.

“Sir Ze… Zekill.”

“Did you lose to him.”

“I have no excuses.”

“Worthless mongrel.”

“…..”

“I thought of you as a smart little dog…. But for you to end up like this. You’re nothing but trash like the rest.”

“Sir Zekill… What… What do you mean….”

“There is nothing more you can do. Die. Die while suffering pathetically at the hands of the strong!”

“…..”

“That’s the only choice left for the weak who cannot fight any longer. Kuhahaha!”

-click

“Glad to see trash flocking to one another.”

“N….No way… Sir Zekill wouldn’t….”

“What’s his class?”

“D… Don’t know.”

“Are you expecting me to believe that?”

“H-Honest! Please believe me!”

“Where do I have to chop off this time to get you to speak properly?”

“Ah! AHH! It’s the truth. Please stop…. Just kill me!”

“Now, shall we review what we went over so far?”

“Ha….. Ha…….”

“You said the one in Gapyeong is called Pierro? And he’s the replacement for Joker as the leader of Joker’s forces.”

Dark Lady nodded her head weakly as her body had been battered into a mess.

“Zekill is in Busan?”

“T…That’s right.”

“But Zekill doesn’t have any subordinates other than the leaders?”

“That’s right. I’ve never seen or met any of them.”

“You also have no idea how many classes he has, what special ability he possesses, or anything else at all, even though you follow him as he is your master.”

She answered as her body shrank in terror.

“I’ve never seen what skill or weapon he uses. The one thing I’ve seen is that he used his bare hands to beat up 4 leaders before.”

“Hm…. So Zekill is causing a ruckus up there all on his own? He’s overconfident, acting without any subordinates.

“…….”

“Pierro and Zekill. Are they the rest of the radical faction? What about the ones that aren’t Awakened, such as the head of the association Choi Man Seo?”

“All of our associates are at my base, which isn’t far from here.”

“I’m guessing that even many of those in high rank will be present.”

“….. That’s right.”

“Good. You were a lot more cooperative than I thought, so I was able to end it quickly. Thanks for your hard work.”

“……”

“From now on, don’t do bad things and live righteously.”

“What? What you’re saying is…. You’re going to let me live….”

“Don’t talk nonsense. You can’t be left alive. You can reflect in the afterlife.”

-slice!

Dark Lady died on the spot.

The information I’ve obtained from her wasn’t that good.

I had more questions rather than answers regarding Zekill.

After that, as if waiting to see when this event would be over, a call came.

It was Ho Jin.

“Yes, Mister.”

“Sir Min-Cheol. How did it go?”

“It’s been taken care of. The portal has completely become a dungeon.”

“Is that so. Thank you for your hard work.”

“Not really. But I was able to reap quite the unexpected reward.”

“Huh? What would that be?”

“I took down Dark Lady.”

“What? Are you talking about one of the leaders of the radical faction, Dark Lady!”

“Yes. I’ll tell you the details later. Now is not the time.”

“…..”

“Do not send any Awakened to Gapyeong.”

“What do you mean?”

“It seems that the replacement for Joker by the name of Pierro is there. I’m not sure about his combat capabilities, but I’m sure it’ll be dangerous.”

“I see. Understood. I’ll relay it to the commander. However….”

“Hm? Is there something wrong?”

“Currently I’m heading to Busan with the commander.”

“I am thinking of going to Busan as well. I heard that Zekill is there. You’re going there with the knowledge that he’s there, right?”

“That’s right. Did you find out through Dark Lady?”

“Yes, that’s correct. I’ll head there right away and call when I get there.”

“I’ll send a helicopter over.”

“No, I’ll just head there with Warp. I’ve been to Busan before.”

“Then we’ll get there as soon as possible after recovering Jong Ho. If you’re worried, should we take your mother before moving?”

“No, mother should be okay. It’s not like there are portal explosions near there. I’ll call you later.”

“Yes, I understand. See you.”

****

“KUWWWEHHH!”

“KYAAAA!”

“KUWAAAA!”

“Damn. It’s chaotic here.”

It almost looked like a scene from a documentary that informed the viewers of the horrors of war.

The city was destroyed and corpses were strewn about everywhere.

Only a few hours ago, this park would have been filled with laughter.

However, only ash and the stench of blood remained now.

A few monsters came into my view.

Destroying everything around them, they were all heading towards a single direction.

It was important to take down Zekill.

However, preventing further damage came first.

The helicopter that everyone was on would be arriving here soon.

Until then, I needed to take care of all the monsters so that I can be completely focused on fighting Zekill.

In one movement, I closed the gap between them and myself.

“KUWEHHHH!”

“……”

Many of its arms spread out it all directions.

Other than that and the head being split in half, it was a monster that looked identical to a person.

I stared at them silently, but there was rage boiling inside of me that I could not suppress.

Each of its many arms held a part of a human body.

Even as they moved rapidly, they were busily shoveling the human corpses into their maws.

Just a moment ago, I had slain 500 radical faction members.

They were human as well.

I know it’s a huge double standard, but I was sure that it was different.

Magic resistance? Physical resistance? I didn’t care for something so trivial.

The only thought that filled my head was that I had to butcher these monsters without refrain.

Holding tightly onto my Butcher’s Sword, I ran towards them.

“Oraaaaa!”

96. 100+500 Event (2)

I couldn’t see any more monsters.

I wasn’t sure if the portal was completely destroyed.

However, I would be able to find out soon.

Those that followed Dark Lady’s orders to jump into the frigid waters of the sea would be returning soon.

When they return to see this scene, they would probably be shocked.

Other than Dark Lady and her personal guards, all of her forces were wiped out.

It wasn’t that surprising.

It was an obvious result.

To think I would be able to meet them while on my way to defend against the portal.

I wasn’t sure if I’d be lucky like this again.

It was almost like a buy one get one free event at a market.

The wavebreakers were devastated due to the explosions from the Rag and the barrage of spells I cast.

Despite that, not a single corpse remained of both the Rag and the radical faction members.

It was because I annihilated them as if they never had existed in the first place.

Their combat capabilities weren’t all the different from Ghost’s forces.

Barrages of Meteor Call with black intense flames came down.

Even a single one would have been enough.

What was left of her forces retreated to where the sea and the deep water marker lay.

Behind them was the ocean, while in front stood an insane man.

At this point, they wanted to die by drowning instead of facing him.

On top of that, I wasn’t even fighting seriously.

I was slowly advancing forward, taking care of them as quickly and cleanly as possible.

I was a human being as well, so how could I be unfazed when kill other humans?

I considered them as those that shouldn’t exist, treating them as monsters with a human form as I fought them.

Dark Lady’s eyes were covered in fear.

She didn’t think even for a second to lower her massive shield.

Steam rose from the Butcher’s Sword I held in my hand.

The fresh blood hadn’t gone cold yet.

Lifting my sword up to my shoulder, I pointed at her.

Noticing how she quivered, I spoke.

“Did you wait long?”

“M…. Monster…..”

“Hey. The monsters are you guys. You’re killing people who’ve done nothing wrong. Isn’t that right?”

“It’s obvious that the weak are ruled by the strong!”

“You said something good for once. Don’t you know that I’m about to apply that law here into practice?”

“…..”

“You’re the weak ones here, so accept your fate peacefully.”

“No matter how strong you are, you are nothing before Zekill….”

“Ah! Zekill? Hurry up and call him here. I’ll let you live until he arrives. Since that’s all the time you have left, make sure to take in all the fresh air while you still can, okay?”

“You little! Uwaaaa!”

It was Dark Lady’s first attack, who had been defending the whole time.

A weak Assassin Weapon Throw that wasn’t even a skill beyond ranking.

Any assassin classes such as Jin would have this kind of skill.

My Mana Shield shook a bit due to the high level of the skill, but it was meaningless against me.

“Assassin Weapon Throw. For a leader, this is too pathetic to be considered an attack you know?”

“You little!”

At Dark Lady’s command, 60 of her personal guards and protectors charged towards me.

There was no willingness to fight in their eyes, and who could blame them.

They had seen my absolute power after all.

Despite that, they charged like moths to a flame at her command, making me question what was going on in their heads.

They knew their fate, yet they still went.

“I acknowledge your loyalty towards your leader. However, do not expect it to earn you anything from me.”

“You dog! Uwaaa!”

“Die!”

I did not use any skills.

I had merely gripped my sword and charged forward with just my strength.

A simple stabbing attack.

However, the speed of it allowed me to pierce all their bodies in a single movement, like an arrow leaving its bow.

Not only that, but the armor that protected their body and their form were popped like a balloon.

Not a single cry or trace of them were left.

Only a mist of blood remained.

My attack continued.

My Mana Shield and body were dyed red as if I had dipped myself in a can of red paint.

The only one left was Dark Lady.

It seemed that she had no plans to fight me.

Joker and Ghost.

Both of them had fought me because they had believed in their own powers.

The ends they met were cruel.

Now, I walked towards her who had no longer a will to fight.

“Ah….AHHH! DON’T COME NEAR ME! PLEASE!”

“If someone else saw this scene, they must think I’m a killer who has killed hundreds of people or something, huh?”

“AHHHHH!”

“You can’t be like this already. The sun shows it’s only midday. It’s still too early for you to meet the reaper.”

A swing of my sword cut the shield in half.

The only things left in her hand was the handle of the shield and a shortsword.

I was going to obtain the information that I was not able to obtain from the other leaders out of her.

When I first faced of Joker, I wasn’t in a situation where I could obtain information from him.

His power was almost enough to overwhelm me after all back then.

If it wasn’t for Reflect Shield, it was possible that I would be the one that was done in rather than him.

For the case with Ghost, I was blinded by the rage that he had tried to harm my mother, and the Transcended Formless Sword Aura’s special skill Wild Beast activated, so I defeated Ghost while I had lost consciousness.

To destroy them at their roots, I needed to use Dark Lady.

“Let me live… PLEASE LET ME LIVE!”

“No. You’ll die.”

“Ah…. AHHHH!”

“But I’ll let you choose how you’ll die.”

“……”

“Will you die painlessly like the subordinates before you, or will you feel hellish pain unlike anything you felt before as you slowly die out, it will depend on your choice. Do you understand?”

“AHHH!”

“You can’t die that easily.”

Dark Lady had tried to stab her throat with her shortsword.

Rather than suffer unimaginable pain as she met a cruel death, she had tried to kill herself.

But did she really think that I’d let her go to hell so easily.

I immediately grabbed her wrist and shattered it.

On top of that, I grabbed her knife and stabbed it in her shoulder.

I did not know how strong the shortsword was.

It didn’t matter though.

Due the the strength stat I possessed, even a toy knife could penetrate her tanker class body with ease if used by me.

“Are you despairing on joining the radical faction, only to end up like this? We’re just getting started. Let’s do this properly. Yeah?”

“Ughh…..”

“Oh. Perfect timing. They’re here.”

I could see 30 radical faction members that had left to check the portals swimming back to shore.

They swam quickly to the ruins of the wavebreakers.

Looking around for a brief moment, they prepared to fight.

These walking stat points of stats dare do such a thing.

“So you’ve arrived? Were the portals sealed properly? They became dungeons, right?”

“Are you okay, leader!”

“You dare do such a thing!”

“They really don’t hold back. Only one of you will survive. I’ll ask again then.”

****

Commander Yoon Jong-sun and Ho Jin were able to destroy the level 35 portal that exploded in Paju successfully.

It was a portal where magic attacks went through.

Ho Jin was a warrior class and he had given the Balrock ring to Jong Ho, so he wasn’t able to do much.

However, thanks to the commander’s orders, he was able to at least draw aggro of the nearby monsters and cast AoE shields on the platoon.

After ending the call with Jong Ho, he was waiting on the commander’s next orders.

It was then that an Awakened of the association was approaching at high speed.

After saluting the commander, he spoke.

“Reporting the current situation!”

“Yes. Please begin.”

“Currently the 3 portals in Incheon and Changwon has stopped vibrating and from the lack of damage to the nearby areas, we can conclude that they have been taken care of.”

“…..”

“On top of that, Paju has been taken care of by you. The areas where Lee Sang-Ho, Kim Hye-won, and Shin Geon headed for have also been taken care of.”

“I see. Thank you for your hard work. Out of the portals left, is Yangpyeong the only one left that would be susceptible to magic attacks?”

“Yes, that’s correct. However, we have received news that the damage in Busan is severe. We lost contact with all the Awakened that were deployed. Even the drones we sent to scout have gone missing as well.”

“Hm…. Is that so…. Alright. Please let me know if anything else comes up.”

“Yes! Understood!”

Finishing his report, he headed down the mountain and out of sight.

Ho Jin, who was listening next to him spoke.

“Commander. The portal in Yangpyeong will be taken care of soon as well.”

“Is that so. Then I guess I’ll have to head for Busan.”

“Something feels off. Even if we discount the drones, it doesn’t explain the loss of contact with the Awakened.”

“I do agree with that as well.”

Leaning towards the commander, Ho Jin whispered.

“It is confirmed that the portal explosions were caused by them.”

“Hm….”

“If it’s of this magnitude, it’s a sign that they’re on the move.”

“I think so as well. Then what you’re trying to say is…”

“Yes, that’s right. I believe that all the Awakened that headed for Busan have been done in by the radical faction.”

“However, since it was an area that the association wasn’t able to deploy their forces to, a massive amount of members of the various guilds headed there. Their levels and the gear they were equipped are nothing to scoff at. Wouldn’t it be a stretch to say that they were all done in?”

“If my guess is correct….”

“….”

“Someone beyond a leader ranking is there. To be precise, the overboss of the organization.”

“If that’s the case, this is extraordinary. We’ll take care of the portals in Yangpyeong. It’s shameful of us to ask this, but could you have Min-Cheol to head for Busan? I shall be going as well, of course.”

“I shall request of him to do so.”

“Yes, thank you.”

They were right.

Dark Lady was deployed to Wolmi-do.

Pierro was deployed to Gapyeong’s Carbongsan.

Finally, the leader of the faction had headed for Busan.

The reason why contact was cut off with the Awakened that were deployed there had been predicted perfectly by Ho Jin.

The portal had exploded at the peak of the mountain of Busan Gamman-dong’s residence.

There stood Zekill, guarding the place.

The portal had already exploded perfectly, pouring out countless monsters.

The area fell into ruin, and the damage to the area was only spreading.

Countless people lost their lives.

On top of that, many Awakened from various guilds lost their lives to Zekill.

Zekill stood next to the portal, overseeing the monsters wrecking havoc.

However, there was something odd.

The monsters weren’t attacking Zekill, even though he wasn’t stealthed.

It was almost as if the monsters thought of him as their own, ignoring him completely.

Zekill looked at the city that was being destroyed, yelling out a line filled with lunacy.

“Destroy! Devour all the trash before you!”

95. 100+500 Event

At the level 30 portal in Changwon, Choi So-Hyeon, who was standing in Jong Ho’s way, fired many single cast magics.

She was considered second to none in terms of the amount of experience she had with dungeons.

That was why she knew there wouldn’t be that many monsters coming out of the level 30 portal.

However, the monsters weren’t coming out all at once.

Instead, they came out one at a time in intervals.

She could consider recklessly entering the portal, but it was too dangerous to do so.

That was why instead of using AoE skills that put a heavy toll on her mana pool, she was using single target spells that costs less mana in comparison to buy time until enough of them gathered where she could use a powerful AoE to finish them off.

Jong Ho knew well about the skill she was using, for thousands of that spell of stored in the Balrock ring he was wearing.

Roughly 10 monsters were currently outside the portal, and each of them were hit once by Explosion that she had casted.

The intense flames from this single target spell would not extinguish until the target was completely destroyed, allowing a constant damage over time.

On top of that, So-Hyeon used teleport to get in the center of the mob before casting Frozen Spear in an attempt to stop their movement.

Frozen projectiles flew out in the radius of the spell.

The intense flames burned at their chest while frozen spears pierced their bodies, forcing them to slow down as they chased at her.

‘Guess rankers are called rankers for a reason.’

Jong Ho blankly stared at the fight, amazed at how she was doing the most amount of damage possible while keeping the mana costs low like a true professional.

That didn’t last long though.

In an annoyed voice, Choi So-Hyeon, who was kiting all the monsters shouted out at him.

“How long are you just going to stand idly by?”

“Ah…. Ah! Sorry!”

“At least pull the aggro of the additional mobs coming in!”

That was right.

It was true that she had cleared the level 28 dungeon by herself, but the current portal they faced were a level 30 one.

It would be difficult for her to face this portal alone.

Jong Ho replied in a bashful tone with an accent that of a country bumpkin.

“That’s…. So you’re saying you want my help?”

“Are you seriously asking me that? I can’t believe it!”

Her pretty face were filled with scorn as she continued to complain.

Despite having a small frame, she spoke with great pride.

Jong Ho couldn’t help but find this display to be cute.

The charisma she carried when she was blasting spells into the monsters were nowhere to be found.

“Hurry!”

Muttering to himself quietly enough that she couldn’t hear about how she told him to go away before, Jong Ho ran forward while replying loudly.

“I’m. Going!”

-WHOOSH!

Jong Ho grabbed So-Hyeon’s arm and tossed her afar.

Using his high strength stat, he had tossed her.

It was to make sure that she wouldn’t be in the radius of his spells, as it wasn’t a targeted spell.

Her eyes, which was already wide open due to how Jong Ho acted before, only opened wider.

She landed on a boulder safely.

She had flown roughly 20m.

With a shocked expression, she spoke.

“Kya! What are you doing!”

“Just wait a bit.”

So-Hyeon could not continue speaking after what she witnessed next.

Jong Ho, who she had thought to be a warrior class was casting Fire Shock in front of her very eyes.

She could also tell at a glance that the spell was far stronger than her own Fire Shock.

The size and amount of falling flames were greater, and even the patterns of the fire were unpredictable.

It was completely different from what she had been using so far.

The monsters gathered up by her were covered in Fire Shock that Jong Ho casted.

The massive damage made the monsters howl in agony without ever being given the chance to attack.

The skills in the ring stored by Min-Cheol also had a cooldown time.

It followed the growth of the one who stored the skills in the ring after all.

Fire Shock had a 3 minutes cooldown, and the monsters weren’t completely defeated yet.

Thinking about what skills to follow up with, Jong Ho unconsciously spoke to himself what he had in mind.

“With Meteor, they should die in a single hit. I think the radius is too large to use right now though? Isn’t there something else more appropriate?”

Hearing his monologue from afar, she could only cough in shock.

While Fire Shock was still active, Jong Ho decided upon Iceberg.

The monsters already endured massive amounts of damage.

If he landed Iceberg at monsters in pairs of two to three, they should die instantly.

Of course, there wasn’t an issue to cast Iceberg for each and every monster separately though.

-CRACK!

“Im… Impossible….”

“Huh? What did you say? It’s too loud for me to hear you.”

“Fire Shock. Iceberg. The size and damage of your spells are unlike anything I’ve seen before….”

“Huh?”

The monsters trapped within the iceberg were shattered to the point where it would be difficult to identify their form, and the pieces were spread all over the floor to boot.

When the sounds of destruction finally stopped filling the air and the air settled, Jong Ho used Teleport to get to So-Hyeon instantly.

“What did you say?”

“…..”

“Did you not say anything? Did I hear wrong…..”

“I… Iceberg….”

“Yes. Iceberg. What about Iceberg?”

“D… Did you A… Awaken it?”

“I think so?”

“…….”

She had already learned Meteor Call and Iceberg.

However, to think that these spells could be leveled and Awakened to the point where they both did not have cooldowns or cast times was something that she didn’t even dream of.

On top of that, these skills consumed massive amounts of mana.

But this man was spamming Iceberg as if it was nothing.

So-Hyeon could only stare blankly at Jong Ho’s face.

It was then.

Something started to float above the corpses of the shattered monsters.

It was not loot that the monsters dropped.

It was something without a solid form with a blueish soul like fire.

One could compare it with oni fire.

Ten oni fire floated up, matching the number of monsters slain.

These flames were absorbed quickly into Choi So-Hyeon’s body.

Seeing this, Jong Ho asked.

“What is that?’

“….Huh?”

“What did you absorb.”

“M… Mana…”

“Huh? You absorb mana after taking down monsters? Wow… You had such a cheat-like ability like that. That’s amazing.”

“I don’t think it should be surprising to someone who can spam Awakened Icebergs like nothing though?”

“Ah…..”

****

It didn’t take long for the level 30 portal to dissipate and change into a dungeon.

The two of them had stopped the portal on their own.

It would have been possible for Jong Ho to do this alone, but thanks to So-Hyeon’s understanding of skills and combat experience, it could be said that the defense was carried out perfectly.

Looking at him, she spoke.

“I think it’s over now.”

“Yes. Thank you for your hard work.”

“This is something I was curious from the start. I’ve never seen anyone spam cast Awakened skills before or even heard of them. What kind of ability do you have?”

“This… This isn’t mine. I’ve borrowed it all. As you know, I’m a warrior.”

With a cheesy smile, Jong Ho avoided the topic.

She did not pursue it further, but instead asked another question.

“I’m not sure if I follow. Whatever. Where are you going to next?”

“Hm…. I think I need to contact my hyung-nim and dongsaeng ¹ first. Are you going to go defend against another portal?”

“Well, I guess I’ll have to go to the ones where magic works against the monsters there, right?”

“Then please wait a moment. I’ll go confirm.”

Jong Ho called Ho Jin.

It was to find out the next location to go, as Ho Jin was with the commander who would know plenty about the current situation of the explosions.

-ring ring

-ring

“Hm…. Are they in the middle of a heated battle?”

Right as he was about to hang up, he could hear Ho Jin’s voice over the phone.

“You’re safe, right?”

The moment the call connected, Ho Jin was already showing his concern for Jong Ho’s well-being.

At his question, Jong Ho answered.

“Of course. Is hyung-nim okay as well?”

“Yeah. Just dissipated a portal.”

“Thank you for your hard work. It’s the same here.”

“I’m glad to hear that. Was there no contact from Mr. Min-Cheol?”

“Yes. Haven’t had any contact with him.”

“Right. Since there are two portals there, he must be very busy.”

“That can’t be helped. Could you tell me the next location that magic works on by the way?”

“Oh…. Just a minute.”

For a short while, he could hear Ho Jin speaking with someone.

It didn’t take long for Ho Jin to continue speaking.

“From what I’ve found out, magic works on the level 34 portal in Yangpyeong. However, since it is a high level portal, I think it would be better if you waited until the situation with Mr. Min-Cheol is resolved before going. The association is unable to spare manpower for that location as well, so the area has been sealed off for now. I’m guessing it’s not urgent to go there as of yet.”

“Hm… Understood, hyung-nim. I’ll go contact Min-Cheol.”

“Yeah. Please take care of yourself. Contact me right away if anything happens.”

“Yes! Take care as well, hyung-nim!”

-click

Ending the call and turning around, he found that Choi So-Hyeon was in a call with someone as well.

Probably gathering intel from Awakened that she knows of regarding the current situation.

Jong Ho then called Min-Cheol.

-ring

-ring

“Yes, hyung-nim!”

“Huh? Is it already over?”

“No. I’m still in the middle of it.”

“Hey. It’s already dangerous enough as it is. Call me after you’re done.”

“It’s okay.”

-huff huff

He could hear Min-Cheol’s labored breathing.

But stranger still was that the sound of horrifying screaming could be heard above that.

It definitely sounded like the cries of human beings.

“AHHHHH!”

“…S…. Sa.. Save me!”

“KU…. KUHH!”

“Hey! Min-Cheol, what’s that sound in the background! It sounds like a critical situation to me?”

“Ah. It’s nothing much. Some monsters acting like humans.”

“Is… Is that so? That’s really strange. Well, until everything is taken care of, don’t let your guard down. Be careful!”

“Don’t worry about it. Is Changwon taken care of?”

“KUAAAH!”

“KU… KU-UCK.”

“Those monsters are quite loud to be honest. Yep, I’m about to head to the level 34 portal in Yangpyeong for now.”

“Ah. Understood. Since it’s dangerous, please don’t approach it recklessly. I’ll finish up here quickly and head there.”

“Alrighty.”

-click

Ending the call, he spoke to her.

“Looks like the level 34 portal in Yangpyeong can be affected by magic. Will you come with?”

“Are you using Warp?”

“No. I used it to get here, so there is a lot of time until I can use it again.”

“Same here….. Let’s go there for now.”

“Ok.”

****

“Busy, so busy!”

The monsters that landed on the beachfront were charging in.

On top of that, the underlings of the radical faction were coming as well.

Without a moment’s rest, I was casting magic nonstop.

The Rag was a type of monster that caused a massive explosion.

The destructive force was enough to annihilate anything within 3m radius without a trace.

The areas where they exploded formed ditches, almost as if bombs were dropped there.

Due to them exploding, the underlings of Dark Lady were dying as well.

Looking at this scene, I couldn’t hold my anger back.

“Nooo! You pigs! Those are my stats…. Stop greedily looking at them and get out of my sight!”

-BOOOOM!
