Chapter 277 – Preparation
There is a place called the Demonic Realm in this world.
Cheondungsan near Mt. Baekdu.
I went to Scandinavia the other day to strengthen my rhinitis.
A snowy mountain in Alaska.
A black demonic landscape that exists in Africa.
The Bermuda Triangle in the ocean.
All of which are untouched by human hands. This is because the monsters there are lined with A-rank monsters that each receive a higher grade.
And the place I was heading to was the Black Magical Land. This demonic land at the tip of the African continent is a haven for all kinds of demonic beasts.
And it was also the place where the demon king was thought to have been born.
It didn’t take much time to come here from Korea. Right after coming to Africa through the warp gate, I moved to Hecate’s shadow magic and came at once.
‘Is this near the dungeon?’
After searching for about an hour, I found the dungeon. And immediately caught the monsters and reached the boss room.
-Kieheek!
Demon scene.
It is said that it is a dungeon that exists in the most dangerous black magic world there, but it was not a big deal to me.
‘Because the void is too deceitful.’
The void cuts the connection point of all things. Beings that can block that attack are extremely rare even among giants, and only the demon lord has the ability to block it. It is not an ability that a mere dungeon boss can block.
After defeating the boss, I went inside. Then I saw a platform that was shining with silver light.
Emotion.
==========================
Silver sheaf
Attributes and rank up can be obtained.
==========================
Rank up.
This trait is very special. It was possible to use other abilities by temporarily raising the rank.
Of course there are limitations.
You cannot go up to Ex-grade, and even if you reach Ex- rank, most of the powers that can be used cannot be used. Or, there is a problem of paying a huge price.
I was debating whether to get this or not.
‘Still, if it’s a grade below the Ex- grade, there’s almost no problem.’
I swallowed a sweet. Then I realized that the weak power inside my body had settled down.
He slowly drew out his power. What I want is ■■■.
Silver power enveloped ■■■.
‘I can’t strengthen it to the extent that the rank changes.’
It was a pity.
I tried Won Young Shin once. Body transforms into soul Throw away the framework of the body.
No new powers came out. However, I got used to it a little more, the stat increase part increased, and I came to accept the power of the void well.
‘I’m satisfied with this.’
Then it was time to head to the top.
***
I immediately headed for the tower.
During my absence, the tower has changed quite a bit.
First, the Emperor is dead. Instead, the princess took the throne as the empress.
‘I heard that the crown prince ascended to the throne as usual, and the decay of the empire accelerated.’
If Yeonah Lee goes back to the tower, she has said that she wants to change it first.
I stayed in the tower for a while and talked to the people around me. The tower was still on the ninth floor.
‘Did they wait for me?’
On the 10th floor there is a demon king in this world, and on the 11th floor there is a snake of jealousy.
Even if he is a demon king, he is not the same as the demon king in reality. Its power is several steps lower than that of the Demon Beast King. It might take a little bit of effort if you’re in a group with Lee Yeon-ah…
‘I don’t think it’s necessary because Ayane is here.’
Joe, starting with Ayane, is also strong. If you borrow the power of the Empire, the damage is great, but you can attack the 10th floor.
I headed to the 10th floor.
“All shields forward! Archers and magic troops, save your strength!”
“Kill all those dog-like bastards!”
As soon as I reached the 10th floor, what I saw was a war between humans and demons.
I put magic into my eyes. Eyes looking down at the sky began to scan the entire battlefield.
At one end of the battlefield, a familiar magic wave could be seen.
Jump.
I jumped at once and headed towards it.
When I headed to the place, Ayane, Xiaomei, and little Yuna were confronting a very large monster there. Next to her, Lee Yeon-a was watching her with her arms crossed.
– Oh, when did you come?
It’s quite a distance, but Lee Yeon-ah looked at me and naturally waved her hand and said with her mouth.
‘Is this Lee Yeon-ah’s domain?’
Lee Yeon-ah’s outfit was unusual. A pair of black jeans.
“Just before. What about the kids?”
“I was practicing a little because I lacked combat experience. But you have become very strong. You seem to be carrying something dangerous that you don’t know what kind of power it is…”
Yuna Lee scanned my body with her eyes. Then she smiled a little oddly.
“Hmm… Your body has improved a lot too. Shall we do it once in a while?”
“There’s a lot to deal with first, so later.”
“… Hey, is Siwoo right?”
Lee Yeon-a was taken aback by my words.
“By the way, the kids’ movements have improved.”
I saw Ayane. The monster raised her arm and swung her fist. Ayane swung her sword.
The 5m tall monster was wearing armor and looked infinitely hard, but its arms were split in two as if cutting off the head.
When I turned my gaze, I saw Lee Chae-ah and Yoon Seung-in. Han Nam-hoon was also fighting hard.
‘Even the craftsmen have become stronger…’
At that time, something was about to pop out of Lee Chae-ah’s shadow.
“Uh?”
Before Yeon-a Lee could use her hand, I stepped out. She walked over to Lee Chae-ah’s side, and she stepped on the shadow.
The void condensed under my feet, severing the connection between the shadow and the monster.
-Kieheek!
When the monster jumped out of the shadows, it was burned with Levatein’s flame.
“Oh, thank you.”
“… Thank you.”
Lee Chae-ah and Yun Seung-in thanked me. However, the problem is that Yoon Seung-in is glaring at me with eyes full of jealousy.
This is really embarrassing
Looking at his emotions with a cloth mask, there were many dark emotions.
‘What.’
And I saw something like a slightly pink bud sprouting from Lee Chae-ah’s emotions.
Lee Yeon-ah was looking at me with very complicated eyes.
***
The way to subdue the monsters and return to the base.
Yeonah Lee sneaked up next to me and asked.
“I’m asking just in case, just in case, are you interested in Chae-ah?”
“… I? Why do you come to that conclusion?”
Even so, I felt uneasy.
Lee Chae-ah and Yoon Seung-in are grown-ups, so I want to treat them well, but Yoon Seung-in is jealous of me.
Lee Chae-ah’s eyes looking at me are complicated.
“Both of you are father-in-law, so I’m trying to do well for you.”
“… Well, if you’re not going to attack Chae-ah in the future, please don’t save her. Everyone likes Chae-ah, but she’s not the type to give her love to just one man…”
After thinking about it for a while, Lee Yeon-ah added a word.
“Um, but Siwoo oppa might be able to do it. Oppa has the ability to make only one man look at his pilgrimage.”
“… But why am I talking like I’m targeting Lee Chae-ah?”
“I’ve been doing a lot of research.”
Lee Yeon-ah turned her words around.
“The dimension Siwoo oppa moved to and this dimension didn’t seem to have anything to do with it. There is some connection, there is a cause, but it feels like the result is the same?”
“…”
Lee Yeon-a glanced at Yoon Seung-in and whispered to me.
“So even if Chae-ah beats her sister now, it won’t have any effect on her Seung-ha and her teeth.”
“But why did you do that to me… ?”
When Li Yeon-ah looked at me, she was startled.
“Is Siu oppa right? Aren’t you coming over?”
“Can you stop talking like I’m crazy for sex?”
“Isn’t that the incarnation of sexual desire?”
Yeon-ah Lee made a surprised expression, then she smiled mischievously.
“Well, actually, it was because I didn’t like that person. I also make my own side.”
As Lee Yeon-ah looked at Yoon Seung-won, she said.
“Why? What happened?”
“I wasn’t like that at first, but it just changed being a person. She said that she would only ever see one woman in her life, but later went around with her three concubines. After all, she almost abandoned her daughter and her sister.”
Lee Yeon-ah said with a sullen expression.
… Normally, I should have made her feel better by matching her words, but since the subject was an adult, I kept my mouth shut.
“Oh, come to think of it, who was it? You know that Japanese.”
“Japanese? Ah…”
It reminded me of her because she is Japanese.
At some point, she became a woman who prayed to me with a statue made in my image.
From a certain moment, she said that she would protect me closely, and she clung to me, and her defensive power was impressive.
“Why is he? Did you have an accident?”
“No, the growth rate was amazing. It wasn’t like that in the past, but now it’s kind of scary. With a friend named Ayane.”
Lee Yeon-ah glanced at Ayane.
“I don’t know what will happen to it because it’s awakening, but if I grow it, it will be really useful?”
“Yes?”
“Yes, I don’t know where the ability called disconnection will evolve and go, but if I succeed in awakening that ability, I can give Aporia a shot.”
Lee Yeon-ah smiled rottenly.
“Then, when are you going to attack the demon lord?”
“Are you in a hurry?”
“Yes. Killing a lot of giants this time… I don’t know if the demon king will move sooner or later.”
“Are you the Demon King? There should still be quite a bit of evil…”
Seeing Lee Yeon-ah bewildered, I explained the situation.
“… Kill Oberon, and kill God of War. Besides, I fought Aporia, but to hear that she came back intact…”
Lee Yeon-ah made a complicated expression.
“I thought I could still stand by your side and fight.”
“Didn’t you become a little stronger in the tower, though?”
“Yes, what. Even so, I finished climbing the top, so there is no penalty. I was about 20% stronger, so I had my own confidence.”
Lee Yeon-a hugged me and whispered in my ear.
“Oh, I learned a lot of sex skills, how about tonight? I really worked hard because I wanted to be loved by that oppa.”
I nodded quietly.
