Chapter 777 – Guardian of the Dungeon
While the tension is relieved, Seong-il throws a black ball to summon Argent. Then, a man with a vicious aura came out of his cheek. His eyes, which have the appearance of a handsome young man, emanate blood-red energy, making the viewer feel disgust and fear.
“How dare you…!! Play a trick on Jim!!”
Argent seems to be only momentarily aware of the time he is trapped in because Seong-il stopped time in the void space after he trapped Argent with a black ball.
“Oh…But were you aware that you were imprisoned?”
“You fucking bastard!!”
Argent feels his blood boil at Seongil’s mockery and glares at him with an enraged look. But, that’s for a while. Argent realizes that he has arrived in a completely different place from where he was initially sealed, and that there are many people he has never seen around him.
“…Wasn’t it just a moment?”
Otherwise, the situation couldn’t have changed like this, so Argent looks around with a nervous expression. Fearsome beings that come into the eyes when the anger is released.
Unidentified wizards and priests staring at themselves openly without hiding their mighty magical energy. And countless powerful warriors and strange spirits drive Argent into a state of extreme tension.
『Your kid has quite good spirits.』
And when the one who makes Argent the most nervous among the dogs opens his mouth, Argent looks at the being who uttered the words with a hard expression.
The appearance of a dragon that sprays bloody fire from its bones and eyes. Argent, who saw it, is an evil monster that appears only in legends, like the emperor of the Mage Empire in the past. He realizes that he is a Draco Lich.
“Eww…!!”
Argent, who is spreading his ferocious spirit, starts spraying all his magical powers on his body instead of answering. Then, in Argent’s body, dark red ominous power starts to burn like a flame.
“Oh… Is it really the power of the abyss?”
Although the enemy is clearly trying to do something, the strong people surrounding him just wait and see without taking any action. Like a cornered rat trying to see what it can do.
After such a short but intense time passed, the ominous flames surrounding the young man disappeared, and a lich made of jewels whose entire body radiated evil energy appeared.
“Dare…!! Does Jim know whose apostle he is and act like this?!”
Unlike a normal lich whose entire body is made of bones, a demilich made of jewels with dense magical energy through additional magical treatment of bones. Seong-il looks at him with evil power overflowing from his body and shouts half mockingly.
“Oh! As expected, he is full of dignity like Kishar VII, the emperor of the Mado Empire.”
“…You bastard. How do you know who I am?”
After receiving a revelation from an evil but great being, King Kishar VII, the emperor of the Mado Empire, waged a huge war against all the kingdoms and pantheon in the world, but was defeated and destroyed. For the past thousand years, he has been confined to the outskirts of Solanium, thoroughly feigning death in order to escape from the pantheon’s pursuit.
He boasted that he had barely escaped the pursuit of the pantheon and cautiously resumed the grand precept, but when the young human in front of him saw his true identity so easily, Kishar VII did not understand the situation and asked Seong-il, widening his eyes.
『If you know who I really am… You should know who I serve. I swear by my true name. If you let me go, I swear that I will not retaliate against you in any way, and pray to ‘Him’ that He will not retaliate against you either.
As a demilich with the power of a demigod, King Kishar VII had strong confidence in his own skills. However, the four powerful people in front of him were strong enough to make even Kishar VII nervous, so he tried to negotiate somehow by mentioning the name of Abyss.
“He? Fuhahahaha!!!』
Haha!!!”
“Hohohoho…!!”
However, as soon as Kishar VII mentions the abyss, the party starts laughing at him as if they had promised. Not understanding why they are laughing at him, King Kishar VII, with an enraged expression, emphasizes the greatness of the god he worships.
『He is the God of all gods and the end!! Insignificant creatures like you could neither die nor live for an eternity…”
“All right. If your god is the abyss that corrupted Nazarus, then there’s no need to threaten us by mentioning him. A threat like that won’t work at all.”
『…!!』
Surprisingly, when the archmage in front of him seems to know not only the great being he serves, but also his actions to some extent, King Kishar VII asks Ruchel in a puzzled voice.
『Yeah… How are things? And how dare you listen to his great achievements and still say such a foolish thing?』
No matter how outstanding the archmage in front of him was, his soul would be instantly shattered by a whisper from the abyss.
He is also dumbfounded because he does not understand how Ruchel can do such disrespect, because a being who truly knows the identity of the abyss can call his whispers just by thinking.
“Only in the ‘world’ you live in, that being in the abyss would be a god of prudence… But not here. If you don’t really believe in it, why don’t you pray to that proud god?”
When the archmage in front of him mocks him very politely and in an old-fashioned way, Kishar VII tries something while glaring at him instead of being angry at his words.
『…』
Surprisingly, when he, who exists everywhere and answers everywhere, does not answer his earnest prayers, King Kishar VII realizes that the connection between him and him has been cut off at the moment and bites his teeth.
『Damn you bastards!! I will not die alone!!”
Kishar VII, after shouting so, casts his magic by swinging the staff he is holding, from which evil energy emanates. Then, fearsome energy spreading everywhere and magic exploding explosively.
‘The terrible death, the howl of the banshee, the fog of despair…’
Seong-il forgets that he is an enemy and admires Kishar VII, who pours out the strongest magic of the 9 classes at once with a gesture of his hand.
“Oh…?”
Then Seong-il momentarily feels the world around him turn gray. In addition, when the flames that were scattered in the air hardened as if they had been fixed, Seong-il realized that Kishar VII had cast the 9th class ultimate magic time stop.
『You bastard…!! How!?”
Despite casting an absolute spell that completely stops the surrounding time except for a small space around the caster, Kishar VII looks shocked when the holy day seems to be unaffected at all. Of course, the reason is that Seong-il not only developed a strong resistance to the power of time while training in time transformation, but also had a strong resistance to magic because he was holding an Arun Labe, but Seong-il did not tell me that fact.
“What are you surprised about? Time stop is not absolute magic. Aren’t there many high-level demons and angels who are immune to time stop?”
Seong-il thoroughly laughs at Kishar VII and raises Arunrabe. Every time he swings Arunrabe, which contains powerful magic-destroying power, cracks begin to appear in the time curtain cast by Kishar VII.
“Is everything over?”
『…!!』
Kishar VII, who was focused only on Seongil and could not take care of others. However, when he hears an additional familiar voice inside the time-stop magic field that has not yet completely collapsed, he turns his head to see where his voice came from.
『…』
Then, the monster-like beings who are still looking at themselves leisurely. In addition to being a castle, the demigod Dracolich and the Apostle of Harvest roamed around freely as if immune to time stop.
『Surely… I will repay you for this humiliation!!』
King Kishar VII realizes that the odds are out of the question and he abandons his arrogant attitude and uses his trumpeted artifact to open a powerful portal. However, for some reason, even though he tried to open the portal to his hideout, the dimensional door did not open.
“Are we fools? So that we can use dimensional magic?”
『…!!』
Kishar VII’s face begins to harden as he realizes that the mortal in front of him has thoroughly prepared even the difficult dimension blocking magic to subdue him. Either that or not, Seong-il raises Arunrabe and rushes towards him.
『Damn you bastard!! As much as you are, I will definitely bring you to him!!”
Kishar VII, instead of enduring tediously as if he was sure of defeat, blocks the attacks pouring in from the surroundings with all his might, then persistently pours out powerful magic toward the holy day.
However, Seongil succeeds in defending Kishar VII properly by using Jeongcheonjinkyung and the time domain, as if mocking Kishar VII. Meanwhile, Seongil’s alter ego and the messenger of destruction. And the colleagues who watched the battle scene of Seongil with interest gradually begin pouring powerful magic attacks toward Kishar VII to end this boring fight.
