Chapter 250 – Chapter 62. Demon Lord Puratremos.
Demon King Pura Tremos snapped his finger. Dozens of bloody metal dolls that fell from the sky began to rush at the warrior team.
“Stop! Block it unconditionally!”
The warriors began stabbing and slashing them with their weapons, ordering them to defend the wizard, healer, and buff magician first. The buff magicians were busy trying to block the demons from trying to infiltrate their bodies. If you do something wrong and the curse comes in by mistake, the whole team will fall apart.
The opponent was none other than the Demon King. It was natural that even the slightest mistake could not be tolerated.
The wizards couldn’t use their full strength against the enemies who moved swiftly around. After all, magic only works when it’s right, but if you move that fast, the magic you’ve created doesn’t match and becomes useless.
So, they threw a few spells and didn’t want to, so they immediately focused on maintaining the mana shield. If you can’t attack, you should at least defend to help the team.
Without Jihyeok, Team Jihyeok united with Team Larosha to face the enemies. Orc Grendal fired arrows, but soon after confirming that he had run out of arrows, he picked up the iron club hanging from his waist. Although they did not learn how to hit with a club professionally, the innate strength of an orc was enough to break the heads of enemies even without particularly flashy skills.
As the ghost archer, Oro, went into battle, he erased his vulgar smile and fired an arrow with an infinitely serious expression. He sometimes beat enemies who came close to him with the ironclad bow he was holding.
The dreamer Castus also folded his hands and closed his eyes as if in prayer. And he didn’t open the eyes of mana called the third eye. Powerful telekinesis crushed the metal dolls in an instant in the air like paper trash.
The demon king Pura Tremos dropped his finger, which rose to the sky, towards the dreamer Castus. The moment the colossal magi pillar fell, the dreamer redirected it with telekinesis. The guard and the magician blocked the shock wave that exploded when it hit the ground.
At that moment when the gaze returned, Ji-hyeok rushed at tremendous speed without missing a beat and swung the holy sword at the demon king. However, he correctly grasped the distance to the point where he could not get close enough to avoid it, and fired a magic bullet at Ji-hyeok.
… Hold on!
Jihyeok did not dodge the follow-up hit and held on to the magic bullet with his whole body. He gritted his teeth and took a few more steps.
ㅡ!
Seeing Jihyeok attacking without avoiding him, the Demon King hesitated and stepped back. The guy didn’t want to dodge the holy sword, so he punched his opponent. It seems that he intended to give flesh and cut bones, but Ji-hyeok had no intention of giving away bones.
ㅡㅡ!!
The holy sword tore through the demon king’s body once and for all. His body staggered once. However, the severed part was quickly restored. … It won’t do much damage though.
– This worm…
Demonic energy began to boil in the silver-white eyes of the demon king.
Ah.
Beams poured from his eyes. Jihyeok threw himself quickly, but the beam hit his left leg.
The moment the beam hit his leg exploded, Ji-hyeok’s body spun and fell to the ground. His left leg disappeared without a trace, and Ji-hyeok seemed to be out of breath at the shock. But even in the pain, he gritted his teeth to keep his mind.
The demon king flew to Jihyeok and punched him in the face. The hero quickly blocked his fist with both hands, but the impact could not be completely offset.
ㅡㅡㅡ!!!
Jihyeok flew away and landed on the wall of a building in the distance. The precariously standing building collapsed. Even that was not enough, so the Demon King randomly poured magic bullets on it.
Bang bang bang bang bang bang bang
The stones became powder in an instant, and a thick layer of dust rose up around them.
The body healer, who was dealing with a metal doll, left her team to her unit leader and jumped at the demon king to help Ji-hyeok. However, against the demon king, who had almost the same speed as Jihyeok, the attack of the healer was slow enough to cause a yawn.
Demon King Puratremos lightly dodged the troll’s attack and hit the troll’s head with the back of his hand.
With a thump, Healer’s body swelled up and fell to the ground. At that time, Jihyeok slowly stood up in the dust. His left leg, which had been blown off, had grown back and recovered. However, his legs were tingling as if the blood was not flowing, and it was difficult to move.
Fuck… , It’s hard to be alone after all…
His confidence, which had soared to the sky after drinking the dragon’s blood, hit bottom again. No matter how much it was, it must have been reckless to fight the demon king alone.
Demon King looked a bit surprised when he saw Ji-hyeok, who was still standing up despite the concentrated attack.
– That’s pretty good. It’s pretty decent for bugs. Admit it.
Puratremos pulled the demons floating in the air with his own body. Then his limbs doubled in thickness and his body grew in size.
– I’ll give you one more chance. Will you serve me?
To be honest, he was a merciful guy for a demon king. … However, Ji-hyeok had no intention of cutting his head at the devil’s son, even if he had to go after him.
“Fuck it.”
The demon king threw his fist at Jihyeok. The bony healer ran urgently, but it was already too late.
Ji-hyeok also wanted to avoid his fist, but it was too late to dodge it completely as his regrown legs were still not normal. He has no choice but to hold on somehow.
… Fuck!
I wouldn’t die, but if I was hit, I could tell just by looking at it that it would just hurt and not end. What can I do though? I’ll have to hold on somehow and fight back later.
The moment his fist came close to Ji-hyeok’s nose, a huge ax suddenly hit his fist.
ㅡㅡ!!
As the fist and ax collided, a shockwave exploded in the middle. Jihyeok flew and rolled on the ground several times.
Princess Ganesha appeared in front of him as he raised his upper body.
“Baby, you’re ugly.”
“… Why are you so late?”
“Uh? Are you blaming me now?”
“It’s because I’m glad, because I’m glad.”
Ganesha smiled.
“But that bastard… , How fucking strong?”
Her arms tingled at the heavy jolt she felt in her palms. … Even if he bumped into him just once, he seemed to know at once that he was a tough guy.
“It is strong. You must not be careless.”
The tomboyish healer stood tall next to Ganesha, and the dreamer Castus, still in a prayerful posture with his eyes closed, floated slightly in the air and approached them.
Even in front of three S-class warriors, the demon king did not feel nervous at all. He started punching his fist again, muttering something like a habit of his mouth.
Castus tried to block his fists as much as possible with his telekinesis, but it was impossible to completely block his attacks because of his power. The body bread healer pushed back with her special skill, body bread, and Princess Ganesha attacked the gap. Oro, the archer of the ghosts, also fired arrows from time to time to distract the demon king.
While they dealt with the demon king, Ji-hyeok also quickly recovered his body. My left leg, which had been numb, is now slowly starting to feel.
The demon king, who had been under such a intensive attack, suddenly exploded his demonic energy and widened his distance from the warriors.
Then, he pulled all the bloody dolls that were fighting with the warrior team to himself. All the things that did not move turned into smoke and flew to the demon king, turning into something strange.
The bloody magic gathered in the demon king’s left hand became a huge and long spear. … It was a terrible weapon to look at.
Jihyeok, who had recovered, took a deep breath as he didn’t want to go on like this. Mana mixed with demonic energy boiled in the stomach.
Oops.
Jihyeok held his breath and collected mana again and again. The mana he had gathered right up to the point of exploding burned even hotter in his stomach.
He glared at the demon lord with open eyes and poured out his breath.
Pyaaaaa
The moment the enormous mana beam was fired, the demon king threw the magic spear he was holding in his left hand at Ji-hyeok.
It pierced the mana beam and penetrated Jihyeok’s chest.
ㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡ!!!
When Ganesha saw it, he let out a tearing scream.
“J, Hyukaaaaa!!!!”
The princess ran madly at him. … But he fell back and heard nothing.
Funny enough, he didn’t die even though his chest was completely penetrated. In spite of his panting breath and terrible pain, his mind was clear.
There were no more sensations coming from outside.
He knew very well what this was.
Death.
It was the process leading to death.
Ah.
Originally, the wound would have killed him instantly, but the dragon’s blood tenaciously held on to his life and refused to let go.
Healer Grug quickly poured her heel on the hero.
Meanwhile, Ji-hyeok was floating in his own world.
… Funny enough, so close to death, he was thinking about life.
What is life-.
To feel sensations.
What else is a sense?
To interact.
Interaction.
Collision of molecules.
The molecule.
Set of atoms.
Atom.
Source of everything.
Source.
Source.
Root,
One.
What if you can’t feel it?
No, there is.
Even if we don’t feel it, there are many things.
Just don’t know
Why can’t you feel it
No, what else do you feel?
The source.
Wu (wu) is.
Fight.
Victory.
Defeat.
What is the essence
Yes, essence.
I’m looking for the essence
You have to find the essence.
Is that the source
Is it atomic?
How small should we be?
How far do you have to feel?
Mana.
Yes, atoms are energy.
Everything is atomic,
Everything will soon come to an end
Okay,
That’s all.
… That’s all.
Is there anything else.
This world is mad
Only mana
Jihyeok came to his senses. The princess, who had slapped him on the cheek while crying, hugged him.
He woke up as if possessed by something.
The dragon’s blood raged more violently than ever before.
He could clearly feel the mana.
It was this.
Source of the world.
There’s nothing.
But at the same time
It is mana, not mana.
Jihyeok stretched out his arms toward the demon king and clenched his fists.
ㅡㅡ!!
The Demon King, who was tearing apart the body of the healer, was violently staggered by the unknown power penetrating the body. He turned his head and looked at Jihyeok.
This guy… !
The demon king threw away the troll he was holding and rushed toward Jihyeok. But he banged his head as if he had hit something very hard.
ㅡㅡㅡ!!!
The guy who fell backwards jumped up again and punched the wall with his fists.
Bang bang bang bang bang bang bang
A tremendous roar erupted. But the wall wasn’t broken. He pulled Magi away and fired a Magi beam out of his eye.
Quaaaaagh
The walls were still intact. … And it gradually approached the demon king.
No, solid walls tightened on all sides. The demon king made a bloody spear again. And he threw it hard against the wall. He was impenetrable though.
– What. What is this? What is this?
The demon king was outraged. However, the transparent walls tightened on all sides were not pierced.
Jihyeok spilled all the blood from the hole called the hole. Not only his arms stretched out toward the demon lord, but also his body trembled.
But he didn’t stop. He gritted his teeth and tightened the wall even more.
This was the last one … If even this fails, I will really die.
The Demon King screamed and ran wild. Joey hit the wall with all his might, but couldn’t stop it. All it takes is Joey slowing him down a bit.
ぅ, turn it off.
Jihyeok knelt down on one knee, coughing up his blood. But he never lost his concentration until the very end.
– Ah, aaaaa!!
The Demon King struggled, screaming at the wall that began to tighten his body. His body became more and more compressed.
“Aaaaa!!!”
Jihyeok also screamed and tightened mana with all his might.
– Aaaaa!!!
With a whoosh and popping sound,
The blue sky appeared again.
