Chapter 218 – The Mask (3)
Zhang Xian is a Hunter from China.
Although inferior to a hero, he is an overwhelmingly strong being compared to ordinary people.
A half-way position, neither a hero nor an ordinary person.
Still, he earns more money than most ordinary people. Although the problem is that the price is the price of life.
‘I hope that today’s work will pass safely.’
Zhang Xian prayed, seeking a God he hadn’t normally sought.
There was only one reason why he came here. This is because the time of a huge demon beast was discovered near Mt. Baekdu. An overwhelming number well over ten thousand.
That led to a state of emergency in both Korea and China.
South Korea, which was in the middle of development in the old North Korea, was gathering all kinds of heroes from the North, and from the Chinese side, troops led by the Void and Chinese heroes were coming in droves.
But that wasn’t the problem.
It is truly a big deal that thousands of demon beasts have gathered. It’s an enormous amount of power that could devastate any country in less than a week.
A bigger problem than that is
‘Why did the Demon King appear?’
Demon King.
He raised his gaze and looked in the direction where Baekdu Mountain was.
The distance between Mt. Baekdu and this place is more than 50 km. Even so, the existence called the Demon King could be identified here.
I saw a huge bridge like a mountain. And the bright yellow eyes you can see from afar.
‘Isn’t it really crazy?’
I was afraid just to look at it. Could there be a being of that size?
Zhang Xian, who was looking at the Demon Beast King in fear, suddenly had the illusion that their eyes met.
‘…’
No, it was not an illusion. Bright yellow eyes looked at him and smiled. It was like a beast looking at delicious food.
“Emergency, emergency, emergency! The demon king moves! Target China! Let me know now!”
The Demon Beast King started to move. The magicians under his command.
“Draft! What are you doing in a daze!”
Zhang Xian blankly stared at the Demon Beast King. The man who was his shooter approached him with a furrowed brow.
He has good eyesight, so he can see the movements of the Witchbeast. That’s why he was drafted to the front line. Although, his strength is weak, but since he is a hunter, he is better than ordinary people.
The story that if you give a firepower type weapon, you can do it for one person.
“The bastard, you wake up!
The man who slapped Zhang Xian on the shoulder to bring him to his senses was taken aback.
Zhang Xian was not idly by. He had passed out while standing with foam at his mouth. His complexion was pure white, and his skin looked older than it had been before.
‘What the hell is going on…’
The man quickly turned his head. The Witch King appeared. Bright yellow smiling eyes.
‘They knocked out Zhang Xian on that street… ?’
The man thought Maybe, maybe China is facing its biggest crisis since its founding.
***
Sigh.
I opened the door and stepped inside.
A huge pupil was visible inside. A doll was visible under the pupil.
The magic beast of the mask had an unusual shape. A gigantic Demon Beast that is over 5m tall.
It is a monster with a human body and a typical demonic form with bat wings and a tail. But the appearance was bizarre. This is because dozens of masks were applied to the body.
The masked beast raised its body. I looked at the demon of the mask. A purple brand was stamped on the head.
‘Is it already dependent?’
– You’re here, intruder. You don’t even know if your destination is your end.
Demonic beasts who have reached the highest rank start looking for Iji.
There is also an example of awakening an inherent ability in the form of a thought.
It seems that the demon of the mask also established its language that way.
‘But why is he talking like that?’
I decided to think about it first by grasping the demon of the mask.
“Rhinitis.”
-OK!
When I said it, rhinitis immediately went on the attack. I quickly activated my heavenly hand and put on the cloth mask. A mask imitating the sword, which is the easiest to recognize at first.
Fluffy.
The sword came out of subspace.
OK,
The Masked Witchbeast was greatly astonished.
-… How, how did you wear the mask?
I was puzzled. I noticed that he was wearing a mask, but the demon beast in the mask looked as if he had seen a life that shouldn’t exist. This is my first reaction. Do you know anything about masks?
– … How did you wear the mask? Those who wear masks must have already been banished by those who dream of eternity?!
“What are you talking about?”
-… Now that I see it, it’s not just the mask. The power of the owner of the library and the power of the black goat? This, this is impossible The invincible devil and those who dream of eternity would not allow the existence of aliens… No, before that, how could an existence possess the knowledge of the owner of the library and the power and mask of the Black Goat at the same time…
The Masked Witch was confused and said. I know about the invincible Demon God.
The boss that appears in the true ending while playing as Yoon Seung-ha multiple times.
Is the existence dreaming of eternity the boss that appears when playing as Yoon Chae-rin?
‘No matter what it is, first capture it.’
I thought that the demon of the mask knew information that I did not know.
That too is very important information.
Brain soul.
The thunder god inside his body caused lightning. In an instant, the lightning strikes every corner of the body, stimulating the body.
Time passed slowly. I quickly moved forward with the lightning wrapped around my body.
However, the mask’s witchcraft was faster than that.
The Masked Witchbeast stretched out its hand wide,
Kwadeuk.
Ripped out his own heart
-Kuh, heuh, masked apostle, keuhuk, to be subordinate to you, I will choose death.
And hit his neck with his arm. I could see the demon’s distorted face with his throat cut.
“…”
I accepted the stigma of the Demon Beast King, but would you refuse to be subordinate to me? It was a movement that seemed like even death could not be a repose. That death is better
‘A masked apostle?’
My head was complicated.
-Contractor, do you know what the magician said earlier?
“… I do not know.”
I said with a complicated expression.
“Do you know anything about rhinitis?”
-I don’t know anything either.
I glanced at the rhinitis. There is no sign of lying. The spirit that contracted with me in the first place couldn’t hide something like that.
‘Rhinitis was born from a high-ranking spirit.’
Perhaps he is the son of those called the Spirit Kings. However, it is a story that people who know that such rhinitis is really rare.
I looked at the mask.
A mask that imitates the opponent’s unique ability by having sex.
To be honest, I think it’s too much of a scam. The only thing that can be called a weakness is the ability to charm people around you.
‘A really weak penalty compared to being versatile.’
You can even imitate the abilities of those who have already died, and if you make a mask, your abilities will increase.
A cloth mask imitates the talents of others. However, the standard of imitation does not discriminate between the dead and the living. It’s small, but it also grants other abilities.
“Okay.”
My head was complicated. Even if I wanted to recall information about the mask through knowledge reading, knowledge reading did not work.
At that time, the magic power of the mask suddenly caused an accident.
Passsss – The masks near the mask’s demons suddenly began to crumble.
Then they were quietly absorbed into me. Strangely, I felt as if it had strengthened my strength.
‘… Status window.’
I opened the status window as if possessed.

“…”
Normally, I would say I was lucky.
Now I felt strangely uncomfortable.
***
Upon exiting the cave, I saw a very familiar face.
“Why is that, like someone who has seen a ghost.”
There was a woman at the entrance of the cave. She was seen as a woman wearing a black sleeveless tee and black jeans with a baseball cap.
Lee Yeon-ah looked at me with a smirk.
“I came to meet you. Now that the demon king is in motion, the association has sent a notice to immediately recruit all heroes in Korea.”
“…”
“How did you know I was here? It’s the eyes. Well, if you ask how did you know, telepathy? Or a lover’s feeling? Since then~.”
Yeon-a Lee said to me with her eyes singled out.
“Don’t look at me with those eyes. Because there is a way to know everything. More than that, I even had a helicopter on standby for Siwoo’s convenience.”
“Thank you.”
When I thanked her, Lee Yeon-ah’s expression brightened.
“Thank you, how about a date voucher?”
“…”
“Just kidding~. After all, I am a married woman.”
Looking at me with her strange eyes, Lee Yeon-a said.
“Are you going to fight the Demon Beast King this time?”
“Hey, are you worried about me right now?”
“… Absolutely. You are the most powerful person in the association right now.”
“Ah, I was surprised because it had been such a long time. It’s the first time I’ve been worried since I came here. Well, don’t worry. The Demon Beast King and I have really bad compatibility.”
“Are you compatible?”
“Yes, to what extent, do you feel that there is no problem even if the demon king becomes 1.5 times stronger than now?”
Lee Yeon-ah said as she raised her white arm.
“Even though I look weak, I am strong in my own way. Oh, were you worried that I might get hurt? Actually, I am very weak. Even if there are bugs in the house, my hands just tremble. I hope Siwoo will protect me.”
Lee Yeon-ah came next to me with a smirk and said.
