Chapter 131 – 131. Heat Wave Magic Core (2)
================
The two magic cores that were split in half by the blow that cut off immortality began to come closer and closer.
Demon Lord of Heat Wave, Savnak.
Demon King Slayer, Yushin Gilead.
Sensing the existence of the detached alter ego, the demon nuclei emitted power as if they were trying to attract each other, just like a gravitational pull.
‘Your body is still hot. Is it near the power supply? . Damn it! They’re pushing each other’s strength in line with the embers accumulated in their hearts.’
Yushin, who was scattering mana through his body like an ultrasound wave, sensed the changes taking place in his body.
The embers of the lightning that had accumulated in the heart.
And the magic core of the newly entered heat wave.
Like women fighting promiscuously while holding onto her hair, fierce battles were fought within Yushin’s body.
“Yushin!”
Ardena shouted and struck the monster that attacked her with her shield.
The monster hit by the shield instantly turned into a piece of meat. Ardena, who managed to save Yushin, dealt with the other monsters while breathing a sigh of relief.
“Ha… Ha… !!”
Yushin felt her own breathing suddenly begin to quicken.
As if it continued to sprint,
I found that a lot of energy was consumed every time she swallowed and vomited.
She let out a breath through her mouth. Oddly enough, it was a reddish breath. As the reddish breath flowed out, even the sparks that were making sharp crackling sounds around Yushin began to turn red.
Hwareuk!
It was a fleeting moment, but a small fire burned from Yushin’s exhaled breath and then disappeared.
“Kuh! Damn, it’s swarming…. Ardena Warriors Commander, Miguel Warriors Commander and I will take the lead, so watch over your husband!”
“Shut up!”
He continued to defeat hundreds of monsters, but the number did not decrease at all.
Rather, it seemed to increase as if proliferating.
I had to go through many crises whenever the dark monsters rushed in like a tide and spewed ferocity stemming from hunger.
But there were results. Thanks to breaking through the fierce waves of monsters in a straight line, they began to get closer to Granada. It came so close that the walls of Granada could be seen over the horizon.
“Cheukhak!”
Yushin, who had been repeating to let out his breath, looked precarious as if he would pass over immediately.
Both of her eyes were bloodshot red.
Her heart was throbbing as if there was no way to calm her down, and the mana that ran through her body was recklessly running through every corner of her body, ignoring her master’s will, like a runaway locomotive.
“I think it will be difficult to break through any further!”
Warrior leader, Emily Leon shouted.
Despite defeating countless monsters with a sharp sword, the end does not come.
War of attrition, which depletes one’s stamina, is the biggest enemy. The elven warrior chiefs felt a sense of crisis. It was because the pursuing party was invariably driven into a corner.
“That’s a lot of fucking, really.”
Bariteon swung his spear and froze all the monsters that were rushing around. In addition, an ice barrier was erected to block the approach of monsters.
But it is only a temporary measure.
Those predators will somehow break through that ice barrier to satisfy their appetite.
“If you keep going blindly, the damage will only increase. It would be better to join the follow-up forces and clear the way.”
He said as Miguel drew back his fists stained with blood and flesh.
He destroyed countless monsters.
However, the monsters continued to multiply.
Miguel, who was examining the corpses of the defeated monsters carefully, witnessed that the monsters whose whole body had been devastated slowly recovered from their wounds and stood up, just like the undead crawling out of their graves.
‘He did not rise from the dead. Immortality is the realm of gods, there is no way that mere monsters have immortality. Its regenerative power is probably so great that it seems immortal.’
The monster converted the meat stored in its belly into mana and used it as the source of its regenerative power.
It had already been heavily eaten.
That’s why the monsters had enough energy to regenerate fatal wounds two or three times.
“Ah. A lot of people are hurt.”
When the elves reached Granada,
A spearman in black armor who was sitting on top of the castle wall greeted them.
He lamented greatly.
It was because they saw that the monsters sent down by the ruler were greatly consumed.
He felt great pity, like someone who saw his new purchase spoiled so quickly. Seeing that the shape has become an unrecognizable piece of meat, “How should I report it…?” .” He muttered.
“Of course, since a demon lord slayer with a great reputation came forward, it might be so.”
The red eyes that flowed from the helmet glanced at Yushin, who was being escorted by the elven warrior chiefs.
Their eyes met in midair.
Confirming Yushin’s gaze, the spearman jumped down from the top of the wall and landed on the floor.
He drooped his blackened spear. A spearman with a killing weapon who slaughtered tens of thousands of demons at once stopped the elven warrior chiefs to help Savnak escape. He judged that it would be difficult to block only with monsters, so he seemed to be on his own.
“Ah, my introduction is late. I am the ruler of the southern continent, and as a follower of the one who reigns at the pinnacle of all demons in this world, I am dispatched to support the return of the demon king Savnak….”
As if trying to forcibly cut off the spearman who suddenly began to introduce himself,
The Demon King Slayer, who had been acting strangely until now, rushed at the spearman with a reckless charge. The spearman raised a black spear and countered it.
“Demon king slayer, you have no consideration for your opponent, while introducing yourself in a mean way….”
The spearman, who witnessed the flash of red lightning begin to roll over, hurriedly shut his mouth.
He pressed his mouth shut.
The spearman’s red eyes shook quickly as he saw the thunderbolt mixed with the power of the heat wave.
He reacted furiously as if he had witnessed it with his own two eyes and yet saw an unbelievable strangeness. As soon as he saw the thunderbolts flying, he quickly distanced himself and was wary of Yushin.
‘The power carried by the thunderbolt is clearly the authority of the heatwave… , It must have been the authority of Demon King Savnak. How can a human handle the demon lord’s authority? No, no matter how one another, this doesn’t make sense… !’
If you get caught up in it, your body will be destroyed.
The spearman instinctively sensed his danger.
“Yushin!”
Ardena shouted, feeling uneasy at Yushin’s reckless act of rushing at the enemy.
She questioned his behavior.
Yushin is not the type to rush at random. He was a prudent type who observed the enemy through exploration and then decided to win.
And above all,
I felt fear at the fact that the lightning that held the blue flash turned red.
“Wow, this is really dangerous….”
Yushin grabbed the hilt with both hands.
The spearman murmured in fear at Yushin’s action to wield the blade with the red thunderbolt.
Wow!!!
Suddenly, lightning struck.
As the lightning flashed red, it severed the spearman’s arm and completely collapsed the wall behind him. It was unbelievable to see the walls of Granada, which boasted solid defenses as if claiming a fortress, were cut into pieces.
Kurrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrring—!!
The heavy walls of the castle collapsed.
Covered in his dust, the spearman struck his black spear, raising his sharp spines.
‘The trajectory suddenly changed while I was down. He can’t control his powers accurately.’
The attack that should have hit didn’t hit.
Only cut his arm,
A blow that could shatter the flesh struck the poor castle wall.
Through him, the spearman realized that the Demon King Slayer could not properly handle the power of the heat wave. It couldn’t have been more fortunate. If he had been hit by a single blow, he would have been unable to resist properly and would have been annihilated.
“Rise up, pierce through.”
Spines sprang to the ground.
The thorny hell that turned the demons surrounding Granada into skewers at once.
As if piercing a criminal sentenced to death, the spines protruded to the ground aimed at Yushin without hesitation. Sharp thorns came out all at once. Book-shaped spines surrounded it in all directions so that it could not escape anywhere.
“Put away your chopsticks.”
When Yushin slammed down on one foot, the spines that had been rushing at him like a paddle broke off like a rotten old tree.
Fragments flew in all directions.
The sharp thorns that should have turned the other into a beehive lost their shape and scattered.
As the red lightning spread around Yushin, the spines disappeared. The spearman had to keep his mouth shut as if he was at a loss for words at the sight of the huge waves of spines he had raised.
“Keugh….”
Yushin, who had driven the spearman into a corner in an instant with an onslaught of attacks, swallowed his pained saliva as he suddenly twisted his face.
The power output has exceeded its limits.
The output beyond the limit came back as a burden.
With a swing of his foot, he blew the spearman into the pile of rubble of the collapsed wall, then opened the distance for a moment to adjust his posture. And calming his breathing, he controlled the thunderbolts that were rampaging in his body.
“From now on, we will take over. Yushin, please step back.”
“Please.”
Yushin nodded at Ardena’s words and exhaled heavily as he wiped the sweat from his forehead.
That bastard is just buying time.
By now, Savnak should have crossed the strait and escaped to the southern continent.
If you have crossed the sea, you must have virtually missed it. He wasted his time dealing with monsters. But even so, he couldn’t return empty-handed, so he tried to capture a spearman who was presumed to be related to the southern continent.
“How many times has it been so one-sided? .”
The spearman, who had become one-armed by a thunderbolt, murmured as if lamenting.
Lowered the tip of his spear
It seemed to show that he had no intention of fighting any longer.
“Drop your weapon!”
“Tell me the whereabouts of Savnak right now!”
The warrior chiefs threatened the one-armed spearman by revealing a strong sense of intimidation.
It seemed that he was going to capture him and send him to Maherit. Seeing that, the spearman burst into laughter. Even though it must have been a situation where he was cornered, he did not forget his composure. It looked like he wasn’t prepared for death, as if he was just enjoying a brief moment of entertainment.
“The Demon King Slayer.”
The spearman met Yushin’s gaze, who was glaring at him from beyond the elven warrior chiefs.
At the same time, the spearman’s body began to distort like freshly formed clay. Dark mud dripped from the cross section of the severed arm. As the amount fell to the floor increased, the spearman’s body trembled dangerously.
“Unfortunately, it seems to have ended here. But it had a purpose. Demon King Slayer, because I knew that you could handle the power of heat wave. Haha, wielding the authority of the Demon King with a human body… I’m sure my master will like it. That person… , More than anyone else… Greed, Thrun… You are the monarch….”
Mud dripped off.
The spearman’s words became very unclear as if he could no longer withstand the disintegration of his body.
Eventually, the body completely collapsed.
The spear he was holding also seemed to be nothing more than a piece of mud, and it poured onto the ground as a handful of mud.
“Lord, are you dead? No, I don’t think so….”
Rosta muttered.
At that, Miguel, who was observing the mud, opened his mouth.
“It seems to be a transfer technique that is automatically reverse summoned when it receives near-death damage.”
Miguel, who was examining the pile of mud spilled on the floor, informed them that the spearman whose arm had been cut off was not an alter ego, but the main body, which was severely damaged and escaped through forced transfer, through a structure very similar to the teleportation magic.
“Yushin.”
Ardena approached and inspected Yushin’s body.
She put her hand to his forehead.
His whole body was like a hot ball of fire. He was sweating like a patient with a high fever and exhaling heat.
Yushin clearly used the power of heat waves. Ardena was very concerned about that.
