64. Downfall (2)
“… He’s a great guy.”
Cha Shin Hyeon muttered.
“No, is there nothing to be surprised about? If you think about it, your actions fit more with the image of the devil. Up until now, it was rather awkward to do communal work.”
“I tried not to do this as much as possible.”
Duraus grinned.
“Even if Hana Jerichun and Bardos fight separately, in the current situation, will they only play the role of spectators anyway? I’m sorry, but that’s the truth.”
It was a bit disappointing that Theranil, Silen, and Malpine already absorbed the energy while they were corpses, but Bardos and Jerichun died fresh (?), so their vitality came in very quickly.
It was a pity that it disappeared after using it once because it was not his own energy, but even taking that into consideration, the power that was building up in his body was a huge flow that Duraus had never experienced before.
Of course, there was no way that five demon lords would die at once in one place and absorb it, so it would be natural, but only by realizing the existence of such a flow, even one-time, it seemed that he would gain enlightenment.
“That’s true, though.”
Cha Shin Hyeon, who laughed out loud, raised her sword.
The blue aura that was condensed to the limit and trembled anxiously on the sword was dazzling. All the power he had was concentrated in the sword form.
“So, does eating it help?”
The sword was swung.
An ultra-dense energy that could no longer be called Kang-gi stretched forward.
flash!
A light so intense that I couldn’t look straight at it burst out first. A shock wave accompanied by a roar was next.
Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!
The power was so great that it seemed as if the earth and the sky were connected by a pillar of Kanggi. The aftermath reached the fortress far away, and the frontal barrier was partially broken.
However, when the light of destruction lit the battlefield and disappeared, the being at the center remained undestroyed.
“Don’t be helpful.”
A satisfied smile was drawn on Duraus’s lips.
“Didn’t I have to block your attack so well?”
The situation that had been pushed back before has been reversed again. The newly absorbed vitality of the two demon kings made them strong enough to withstand their attacks!
“I can be a part of my power and help you kill you, so the dead will be happy.”
“Well, I don’t think so.”
However, although the attack didn’t do much damage, Cha Shin Hyeon didn’t mind.
This is because this strike was an attack that converges all of his aggression into one point.
It is ‘power’. Not ‘marital power’.
Until now, he had been using a mixed energy that greatly increased the ratio of pre-marriage power when driving Duraus. It is normal for the power to drop sharply since the premarital power has been removed from it. If the opponent had been hit, it would have been rather strange.
Cha Shin Hyeon, who had exhausted all her power, began to fill in the spirit and body of Cha Shin Hyeon. Pure divine power, unmixed with anything else. A power that has its origins in the very existence of Cha Shin Hyeon.
A soft, transparent light blue energy wrapped around the sword.
“I’ll see you soon, so go and ask. Do they really think that way?”
Duraus wasn’t stupid enough to not notice that he was returning the words to send him to the other world. He was outraged by Cha Shin Hyeon’s still arrogant attitude.
“Come on, let’s try it!”
The energy of the bloody luck wrapped around the whip exploded. A stream of blood-colored air spinning round and round stretched out and formed a tornado. He gave off a vicious force to change everything caught.Boo Woong!
Every time Duraus swung his arm, the tornado moved with it. To put it simply, the length of the whip has increased several dozen times. Along the moving trajectory, it ripped to pieces all around it.
The attack radius was only (?) about several hundred meters, but considering the destructive power condensed inside it, tsunamis and typhoons looked cute. If even the Demon King was caught, it seemed that he would not be able to see a very good one.
Cha Shin Hyeon was not caught.
The destructive power and attack radius were greatly increased, but because of that, the speed was a bit dead. A 3-meter whip and a 100-meter whip cannot be swung at the same speed.
“You bastard!”
Seeing Cha Shin Hyeon slowly avoiding her without having a hard time, Duraus took a revenge.
“I’ve never dealt with that kind of power myself, so there’s no way I can handle it properly.”
Cha Shin Hyeon replied bluntly.
“what?”
“The fact that a guy who can’t know that he’s not a savvy man by recklessly wielding it massively is doing it, isn’t it proof that he can’t control himself at will?”
The situation is similar to that of Elter, who received the protection of the primordial dragon.
A power that exceeds his or her ability can, of course, be manipulated, but it cannot be freely used as usual. That is, it is more powerful than its ability.
Just as Cha Shin Hyeon helped control by sticking next to him, a stronger person from a higher level helped him or at least he had to spend enough time on his own to practice.
Duraus is neither.
Even without careful handling, his destructive power is so great that he can overwhelm him with his normal force, but Cha Shin Hyeon could not win with his strength alone.
“Even more so if you can’t even force it.”
Cha Shin Hyeon lightly threw the sword she was holding upwards.
The sword slowly floated above his head and slowly rotated. The blade pointed upwards to the left. It was a space where tornadoes were greedyly approaching.
Wedge love!
Igear swordsmanship was activated.
The red black rushing towards the huge blood stream looked shabby. Outwardly, it was no different from an egg being thrown towards a rock, or a leaf in front of a typhoon.
However, the preoccupational power that surrounds the entire sword has turned the impossible into possible.
shhh!
The sky-blue trajectory split the red wind. Just like before, Cha Shin Hyeon’s sword cut off the tip of the whip.
Shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!
The sword pierced through the tornado fragments (?) that were cut and floated. The tornado that was cut like a cake cut along the light blue line disappeared.
“no?!”
Duraus’s eyes widened.
Even in the midst of astonishment, Igear sword continued to progress. The sword that blew off the tip of the tornado was now riding upside down in the wind, scattering blood clouds everywhere it passed.
shhh! shhh! shhh! shhh! shhh!
No matter how large a piece of paper was, it was the same as if it were cut with a pair of scissors.
A sword infinitely small compared to a tornado the size of a huge building. The density of the preoccupational power condensed there could not be compared with blood luck.
woong!
At some point, the power dropped and the sword bounced out of the tornado. The sword, which had fallen, returned to its hand after receiving the master’s command.
In one flight, more than half of the tornado was gone.
“If you don’t call yourself too big, you’ll be fine if you put them together.”
The sword, which has been charged with pre-psychic power, shines in light blue again. The second gear sword flew away.
“Oh oh oh oh!”
Duraus, who was furious, poured more blood fortune, but it didn’t happen overnight.
The unrefined, unrefined, blood cloud that was close to pouring at will was destroyed without mercy by the refined preoccupation. The tornado continued to decrease as if it were a pencil being sharpened by a pencil sharpener.
In the end, the sword that had pierced all the blood stream advanced right in front of Duraus’s nose.
The evil Durus swung his whip wildly.
Quang!
Instead of blood luck, a whip with a physical substance directly blocked the sword’s path. The whip that struck the side wrapped around the sword. The thorns were intertwined, blocking movement.
The sword trying to advance and the whip trying to hold on to it were fiercely contested. The pounding sword resisted by scattering air waves in all directions.
“Aww!”
Excited, Duras shook his arm with all his might.
Enormous power was transmitted through the whip, forcing the sword to change its course. The sword he had been holding was exhausted and was eventually thrown away poorly.
Cha Shin Hyeon caught the flying sword.
He had been far away and had moved all the way here. No matter how focused he was on his sword, Duraus didn’t even notice him moving.
Whoa!
The sword in the master’s hand wept happily. To Duraus, it was a sword name that could only be heard as a creepy gimmick.
Immediately Cha Shin Hyeon’s slash came.
Of course, it was a completely different power from the time of the Igear Sword, which used up its power through the tornado.
Scratch!
The sword cut through the middle of the whip neatly. The whip, which had been cut twice, was now less than two meters long.
There was no longer the length or the gap to use the proper expedient method. Cha Shin Hyeon, who dug inward, lowered the sword vertically.
Kang!
In a haste, Duraus defended himself by raising his whip over his head. He took the whip and pulled it taut, risking being stabbed by a thorn in his left hand.
The squeezing force was so strong that the thorns mercilessly penetrated the palms. Duraus desperately took control of his left arm, which was shaking with pain and bleeding. Never miss out here.
“Didn’t I say that you don’t die until you run out of vitality? He wouldn’t have lost his strength already, but he’s pretty desperate.”
Cha Shin Hyeon said sarcastically. Duraus didn’t even have time to answer.
“By the way, I saw earlier that whenever you were injured, you were treated with magic, didn’t you? It is not an automatic recovery.”
If so, another assumption can be made.
What if the absorbed life force doesn’t make you immortal, but only delays death? What if the reason that you didn’t die from a heart attack was just to survive because you had time to heal?
“Then I wonder what it would be like to be unable to use magic.”
“… … !”
Duraus’ eyes flickered. It was only a brief moment, but it was enough to get an answer.
Cha Shin Hyeon, who grinned, gave strength to her hand.
“bye.”
The maximum preoccupational power he could control was concentrated on the blade.
The power of a god with the power of amputation crushed the whip. It was only for a moment that blood luck could withstand it.
Shh.There was no sound.
Cha Shin Hyeon’s sword fell down as if it were just splitting water.
“… … .”
Cha Shin Hyeon, who retrieved the sword, stepped back slightly.
After a while.
The Duraus, which was split from the top of the head to the groin along with the name weapon, split in two and fell to the ground.
This time I checked for sure. The vital reaction was cut off.
The circumstances in which he returned were markedly different from when he had stabbed his heart.
Kugugugugung!
The surrounding space began to shake. The Demon Lord Spirit of Duraus had begun to collapse. It was a scene I had seen many times when I killed the Demon Kings who turned on the Demon King Spirit.
“I’m glad they’re good liars.”
If it had been immortal, I would have been annoyed, but fortunately, Duraus, whose head was split, simply died. Cha Shin Hyeon let out a weary sigh.
Then Cha Shin Hyeon, who had enough time to look around, turned to the fortress. He looked back at his senses for a moment and then let out a faint smile.
“Looks like you won.”
Both are invisible on the battlefield. However, Artia’s presence is not felt, while Elther’s presence is felt inside the fortress.
Then you get the answer right away. Since Elter has won, he will be alive. It must have been a formidable confrontation, so it looked like he was healing any injuries inside the fortress.
The dragons at the back of the fortress still had 20. After all, the mission was to deal with a large number of intermediate demons, so even if he was exhausted, he would not have been seriously injured.
On the other hand, the number of demons was greatly reduced. Because he was dealing with three times the power, the damage had to be the greatest. It was encouraging that there were a dozen of them alive and holding on.
Well, there’s no need to intervene right away either.
After the battle with Duraus, who had fought so loudly, was over, everyone noticed the result. If all the demon kings are dead, do you think the demon spirits will feel like fighting?
“then… … .”
After quickly deciding that there was no problem, Cha Shin Hyeon turned her head back.
He murmured while staring at the Demon King’s main base.
“Is there one left?”
* * *
Have you ever felt so much despair?
It was only today that Naznel knew what it felt like to be lost.
He was proud that he was stronger than anyone else. He did not give up and persevered no matter what happened, so he thought he was able to survive the long battle with the dragon blood and rise to the position of the strongest demon king.
As of today, I think I need to change that thinking.
Seeing Cha Shin Hyeon for the first time, he felt fear.
He’s got to be an off-the-shelf monster. What would you do if even Duraus, who absorbed the power of the five demon kings, was defeated?
[Now… … .]
Did I turn my head because I was so scared? Now it seems to be hearing hallucinations. What is this? Misery filled my heart with depression.
“… Huh?”
Naznell, who had been shaking his head violently, stood still.
It’s the first time I’ve ever heard of it, but was it possible to hear auditory hallucinations so clearly? Besides, what about ‘just now’? I don’t understand what the hell you are talking about.
[I just got it… … .]
The voice continued to whisper.
