Chapter 566 – Assassination Family Raven 6 (13)
A day after receiving the news from an intelligence agent that the warp gate had been activated and moving the Raven territory to the bottom of the desert, hero candidates came to visit.
I was waiting for the Demon King to descend without intervening as much as possible, but I was a little surprised when the Hero candidates just walked all the way to the Raven territory.
However, seeing the curse like that made me think that the warp gate’s brief activation yesterday was the work of the devil.
Could it be that they have prepared something like a curse in advance where if you pass through the warp gate you will be cursed to become a sacrifice for the coming of the Demon King?
It appears that there is a priest in the party, and seeing as he cannot understand the curse, it seems to be a very well-made curse.
Is it a curse that has stayed with us and permeated us for a long time? The devil may have taken advantage of the warp gate’s vulnerability.
The thought of red orcs pouring out of the warp gate briefly flashed through my mind.
‘But being able to figure this out right away… ‘It’s fascinating.’
Is this the insight that Master Yanwang had? It’s not yet at the level where I can figure it out just by looking at it, but as soon as I read mana, I can figure out a lot more.
‘If you mix the shadow energy, it seems like the curse will be broken.’
Skill Link-Boost
Dominate Shadow. Shadow Craft.
Swords made of shadows began to rain from the heads of the warrior candidates.
Pupupupupupup!
“Raid!”
“It stayed!”
More than half of the hero party was killed with the attack just now, but there were people who reacted.
It seems to be an automatic defense using artifacts, but it seemed difficult to organize it all at once by simply combining shadows.
‘Still, I killed everything that seemed quick on foot.’
Originally, there were still warriors with excellent defense and wizards who always had a way to protect themselves, but the balance of the party was already broken.
I retrieved the Shadow Craft and made the Raven Territory disappear.
The ground disappeared in an instant, and the members of the hero party fell down along with the corpses.
Thud! Boom!
“Devil! “Only a devil can do this kind of magic!”
“Allied with the devil… !”
The hero candidates who survived gritting their teeth began to get angry.
Now, I think that the devil and his gang are the ones who will be sacrificed …
‘I’m also the one trying to bring the devil to earth, so I can’t say it’s completely wrong.’
After retrieving the shadow wrapped around his body, he held the shadow sword with both hands.
The warriors who saw me appear quickly aimed their weapons.
“Good.”
Daepyeongbo (踏影步).
Stepping on the shadow, he quickly arrived in front of the leading warrior.
Yeonhwanryu (連環流) Chamjeol (斬切).
Suddenly! Suddenly!
While training with Asui Miyama, my mastery of Zentsu improved greatly.
Swinging the sword has reached the level of causing interference in space, but when concentrated, even if it is not at that level, it has a sharpness that is incomparable to throwing the sword of shadow with mana.
The shining weapon was split in half and the blessed armor could not protect the warrior’s body.
“Quick!”
“Zenjaaaaang!”
Suddenly! Suddenly! Suddenly!
The survivor of the warrior party let out a voice full of fear, and I swung my sword without stopping.
Paaang!
The wizard spewed out mana with a martial arts spear to deal with me as I approached, but reflexively surrounded her body with shadow energy and destroyed the mana.
He stepped on the shadow again and moved towards the opponent who was standing on two legs.
Suddenly! Suddenly! Suddenly!
All the Hero candidates who came to Raven’s territory were defeated while receiving a resentful look from the last standing wizard.
And when I looked up slightly, I saw a demon with dark purple hair looking down at me with a face full of fear.
Shadow Craft.
“Haha…!”
He created a huge hand out of shadow and brought the devil right in front of him.
The devil turned his head desperately and tried not to make eye contact with me.
“You know what you’re going to do, so get started.”
After hearing those words, the devil looked at me with purple eyes and said.
“Everything… No matter how strong you are, the Demon King will not lose!”
What should I say? I feel like a villain…
‘Right. Because he is an assassin of the Raven family.’
I retrieved the shadow and stepped back.
The purple devil, who had regained his freedom, placed his arms on the ground.
Dark magical energy began to surround the bodies of the hero party, and the mana they carried began to gradually be eroded by the magical energy.
‘The curse placed on them was to prevent their soul and mana from leaving their bodies even after death.’
The devil who had been tormenting souls and turning mana into demonic energy was currently making a contract with me, so I thought I knew roughly how it worked.
At that time, Shahemos was kidnapping people from ordinary villages and collecting small amounts of mana by converting them into demonic energy. But what the purple demon was touching now had a much higher amount of mana.
“Haha… Haha!!!”
The devil was so happy that he began to cry, bleeding from his eyes, ears, nose, and mouth.
‘Isn’t that called the Chilgong Bunhyeol?’
Thinking that if he survives like that, he is sure to be a demon, he looks at the gate of demonic energy that is gradually starting to take shape.
Now that the sun that illuminates the earth has disappeared and darkness has become the master of the world, dark blue mana stirs and disappears in an instant.
“You have come.”
As the devil said, smiling brightly and still bleeding from his face, the door to the demon world had not disappeared.
Should we say that we have completely assimilated into the shadow? At that time, it turned pitch black for an instant.
The moment it changed from really black to a glossy color, I swung the sword of shadow.
Kaaaaang!
By parrying the attack, the body was pushed back.
“The Demon King has descended.”
With those words, the purple-haired demon fell to his seat
The Demon King looked at the fallen demon in front of him and waved his hand slightly.
After flying far away, the devil fell on the floor.
“Hero.”
The Demon King said, tapping his head with his hand.
“The devil.”
A certain amount of Terrance Raven’s face remained in the Demon King.
Should I say that he has a younger face than when I saw him in the house? Another difference was that the curled horns protruded from the head
“In this body’s memory. The first person to be killed. I don’t think he was a hero, but that’s how it turned out.”
“I thought I would have a fight with the owner of that body someday, but it happened.”
If the Demon King took over Terrance Raven’s body, he would cause a big problem to the Raven family, so he created a quiet place where he didn’t have to worry about the attention of those around him.
I don’t know how many times the demon lord and the hero have appeared so far, but wouldn’t this be the first time I’ve had a battle where there was only a corpse of a hero candidate and a fainted demon around?
‘Or else.’
I erased the Shadow Sword and immediately raised my mana to use her full power.
Black and white twin wheels.
The ring of shadow and the ring of heat resonated within the body, spreading power throughout the body.
Paang!
The Demon King slightly moved his head, and black magic energy stretched out like a whip and aimed at me.
The speed was so fast that I could hear the sound of air exploding, and I used my insight to find out the trajectory and blocked it with my fist covered in a shadow.
‘I understand that the gods said they were on the same level as me.’
Falunbo (破輪步).
To the Dappy Comparedeongbo, I stepped on the Palyunbo, which allows for faster movement even though it is less stealthy.
As he approached in an instant, he threw out his right hand with a spinning and piercing force.
Breaking through the spiral flow.
Whoa, whoa!
A fist almost identical to mine appeared near the body of the Demon King, who had his arms crossed.
And it canceled out the spiral break very neatly.
Even though it did not contain any attributes or was not fused with another technique, I was able to clearly see the power it possessed by seeing it block very cleanly.
‘That guy has a power comparable to mine using black, white and silver.’
However, rather than having two conflicting attributes like me, they were all pure demon energy.
If it’s a monster that can freely use magic energy like hands and feet, honestly, wouldn’t it be higher than I?
If I had faced the devil after I grew up, I don’t know what kind of enemy I would have fought.
A fleeting moment of encounter with a black fist.
I gave up on overcoming the repulsion and stepped back.
Shoo shoo shoo!
The fists I made to offset the spiral breakthrough instantly filled the air and attacked the place I was in.
Kwaaaaa!!!
When the black fist hit the ground, a large crater was created.
What if you could easily copy something that rotates and pierces?
White wheel prayer beads.
White flames spewed out from the nine rings of heat surrounding the Demon King.
White flames began to flood the earth, and I used the flames to create a battlefield suitable for me to fight.
Blaze Field.
After the assassin family Raven’s territory disappeared, white flames began to fill the vast land.
The Demon King, who was protecting himself by surrounding himself with demon energy, uncrossed his arms and raised a black dagger.
If it had been Terrance Raven, he would have used a Shadow Craft, but the Demon King used a Diabol Craft, overflowing with dark magical energy.
“Slash.”
Suddenly.
When the Demon King swung a dagger full of demonic energy, the space split apart.
I was able to avoid it by reading the trajectory in advance through insight, but wouldn’t it have been a bit dangerous if I had tried to block it instead?
‘Let’s focus on evasion and create a clear gap where we can hit the afterglow in the chest.’
I took a step towards the Demon King, with the power of shadow and heat hovering in both hands.
