Episode 215:
Tiring.
[You have feasted on a huge being.]
[Strength increases by 5.]
[Stamina increases by 5.]
[Speed increases by 5.]
[Magic power increases by 5.]
[Skill Typhon (S) has been registered. ]
“…!!”
It was expected that the stats would increase after feasting on Tartarus.
However, the registration of the skill was unexpected.
Moreover, the name Typhon is clearly the name of a giant king who was a prince before Orgal.
‘Is he still alive?’
All I could remember was that Typhon was defeated by Orgal.
This is because it is a memory of Tartarus, not a party involved.
‘You ate the Archduke’s descendants… Aren’t you going to summon me for no reason and kill me first?’
Taehyun’s thoughts did not last long.
This is because the message window that popped up was not the end.
[Skill Memorize (S) has been activated. ‘Fragments of tribal war’ were recorded.]
“…!!”
This was truly an unexpected and unexpected situation.
Taehyun’s eyes opened wide.
A tribal war that had no clue.
This was the first time something related to it was mentioned in the status message.
This is it.
‘It’s an unexpected income.’
The corners of Taehyun’s mouth rose.
Entering the labyrinth and increasing my stats was more beneficial than gaining a summoning skill.
It was when Taehyun tried to open the status window.
[You can eat it right away!!]
The doppelganger shouted in my head.
It’s dissatisfaction.
Taehyun is one step closer to the secrets of the world.
Not moving according to your will.
“Tsk. “Who do you think owns your body?”
Taehyun clicked his tongue and mocked his doppelganger.
What if that power was given without compensation?
This is Taehyun, who once lost his body to that guy, even if only for a moment.
Right now, it’s just a temporary truce.
The fact that he is as dangerous as the Archduke has not changed.
‘no. ‘It wouldn’t be strange to say that he is an archduke in the world of imagination.’
Just listing the monsters he dealt with is more than you can imagine.
What if he really takes over Taehyun’s body?
What if, by chance, this guy is a real monster?
At that time, it was possible that the new Korea would be destroyed.
Taehyun has become that kind of person now.
[Struggling as hard as you can. In the end, I will be the one who takes over the body.]
With those words, the doppelganger’s voice disappeared.
“ah. “Yes.”
Taehyun answered awkwardly and looked around.
Even though Tartarus was devoured, it was still a sea of fire.
‘I guess I’ll have to check the Titan skill later.’
Unlike before, I didn’t feel like the demons were alive.
Maybe he got scared by the force Taehyun showed and ran away.
‘There are no more mines left.’
Taehyun released his magic power without stopping.
“I guess we can check.”
Dark red magic spread into the labyrinth once again.
* * *
“Taehyun Kim took care of Tartarus.”
“Know.”
After hearing his subordinate’s report, the shadow spoke calmly.
Tartarus, the original owner of the labyrinth, and Taehyun Kim.
This is because the magical wave created by the two guys’ battle was so large that it shook them to the core.
In the first place, he was a monster that Min Ji-hong and Kasim Zort subdued and imprisoned.
The shadow was not something he could deal with.
Hundreds of S-class demons, Kasim Zort, and even Tartarus.
Kim Tae-hyun came this far alone, without proper armament.
‘I guess I’ve reached my physical limit now.’
Human mental power is not infinite.
Even if you are an anti-aircraft contractor, there is a limit to your mental power.
It was no different for Min Ji-hong and Kassim Zort, who were also anti-aircraft contractors.
Now all that was left was himself.
“Blow up the labyrinth.”
The shadow gave an order without hesitation.
“My name.”
It’s time for the subordinate who said that to disappear.
Pazjt.
A spark flew into the space where they were standing.
“…!!”
At the same time, it is almost like a tentacle.
Dark red magical power touched the subordinate’s feet.
The same was true for Shadow’s feet.
It was Taehyun’s magical power that had shaken the labyrinth with Tartarus just a moment ago.
The skill ‘Energy Drain’ was used for detection and drove many demons to death.
Although the same magical power was touched, the response was different.
The frightened subordinate hurriedly moved his body, and the shadow materialized a black scythe.
and.
Kyaang.
The shadow swung its scythe and cut off the magic power that touched its feet.
That split-second choice decided fate.
Poseok.
The subordinate’s body dried quickly.
Magic power is being taken away to its limit and even life force is being sucked out.
“Shadow…Sir…”
Before the shadow could belatedly cut off the magic power that reached his subordinate.
dump.
The subordinate collapsed, having had all his magic sucked out.
It looked like it had become a mummy.
It’s at least a mass-produced type.
It was so shabby that it was hard to believe that it was the end of a demon who had reached mid-level S rank.
The shadow that was watching quietly clicked its tongue.
If Kim Tae-hyun’s magic extends to this place, it is obvious without looking anywhere else.
The other demons deployed to explode the labyrinth would also be similar.
“Taehyun Kim. “It’s annoying.”
Ssssssut.
Leaving Yoo Ah-young behind.
The new form of shadow disappeared somewhere in the labyrinth.
* * *
It was less than 30 minutes later that Taehyun arrived at Yoo Ah-young’s location.
This is because Yoo Ah-young’s magic power was detected among the magic power caught in the ‘Energy Drain’.
Even though I ran with all my might, it took 30 minutes.
It was a place so deep that it would not be strange to call it the end of a labyrinth.
On one wall there.
There was Yoo Ah-young, whose arms and legs were bound with restraints.
“Guild leader Yoo Ah-young!!”
Taehyun ran over and checked her pulse.
Not only is the entire body broken, but one arm is torn off.
He looked haggard.
‘You ruined it really well.’
Not only the external injuries but also the internal injuries seemed serious.
If I don’t get proper treatment today, I will probably lose my life.
Quad deuk.
Taehyun tore off the restraints with just his grip strength.
“Try to come to your senses.”
Wow.
On the way, I tore up the healing scroll I had taken from Mine.
Wow.
Even though a cloud of white light permeated Yoo Ah-young’s body, she could not come to her senses.
‘I stepped on it just enough not to die.’
Taehyun, who checked her weakly beating pulse, stopped by to see her.
It’s time to run towards the exit of the labyrinth.
Wow.
The labyrinth shook once.
It was an explosion on a scale that had occurred during the previous rush.
the problem is.
Cooung. Cooung. Wow.
Explosions are occurring in succession.
‘These kids can’t believe it…’
The moment Taehyun assumes the worst and tries to run again.
“…!!”
Taehyun quickly jumped at the sudden presence.
Huh.
A cool scythe swept across the space where Taehyun was.
“I have a good feeling.”
There was a shadow there.
“We finally meet. Mr. Samrodu.”
That was when Taehyun was about to use his skill.
Phew.
The shadow that appeared behind him once again swung his scythe.
‘Tsk.’
Taehyun clicked his tongue and pulled away.
It was a cumbersome skill to use against Yoo Ah-young.
However, if a range skill was used here, there was a high possibility that Yoo Ah-young’s weakened body would not be able to withstand it.
at last.
‘I have to defeat him in person-to-person combat.’
Taehyun widened the distance and put Yoo Ah-young down in a corner.
The shadow watched with interest.
“Do you feel like giving it a try?”
“He is the type of person who does his best to catch flies.”
“….”
The shadow chuckled at the simple provocation.
Taehyun used the skill.
Tiring.
[Skill Blood Rush (S) has been activated.]
[A huge power awakens. Muscle strength increases. Strength has increased to 380.]
[Great power awakens. Stamina increases. Stamina has reached 380.]
[A great power awakens. The speed increases. Speed has increased to 385.]
[A great power awakens. Magic power increases. Magic power has increased to 520.]
Taebaek, the first form of the new Korean ancient martial art.
Taehyun’s hand blade and Shadow’s scythe collided.
* * *
It was a one-sided battle.
The Shadow’s Scythe had already been broken and canceled a long time ago.
Kwasik.
Taehyun’s footsteps sent the shadow’s body flying into the distance.
That wasn’t the end.
Chonjing, the second form of ancient Chinese martial arts.
Sangyeong, the second type of new Korean ancient martial art.
An ancient martial art of a completely different nature threatened Shadow’s life at every moment.
If you didn’t have the skill ‘Apostle of Darkness’, it wouldn’t be surprising if you died immediately.
It was difficult to call it a workshop anymore.
‘Kim Tae-hyun… he’s not tired at all, right?!!’
Ssssssut.
The shadow thought so as it once again dodged Taehyun’s attack.
On the contrary, he seemed even more tired from constantly trying to avoid it.
This is because a significant amount of magical power was consumed to blow up the labyrinth a little while ago.
Kim Tae-hyun is not at a level where anything can be done, even if he is in normal condition.
Now that the gap in physical strength had widened, there was no way he could be an opponent.
What if Kim Tae-hyun used a field-type skill without paying attention to Yoo Ah-young?
gulp.
‘This… almost cost me my life.’
Ssssssut.
The shadow widened the distance, admitting its mistake.
He realized that if he waited any longer, his life could be in danger.
“It’s a skill suited for a rat.”
Kwaang!!
Penetration mirror following the sun mirror.
Taehyun’s fist, which predicted where to avoid in advance, was stuck in the shadow guard.
“Wow…”
The shadow stuck on the wall of the labyrinth vomited blood for the first time.
It is an ancient Chinese martial art used with a strength of 380.
Although it was prevented, the internal injuries were not light at all.
“Kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk… The labyrinth will soon disappear.”
“I know, man.”
Taehyun’s fist hit the shadow guard once again.
Quad deuk.
Both arms of the shadow strengthened by magic were broken.
‘Now it’s clear.’
Taehyun muttered, looking for the missing shadow once again.
“Where did they take Min Ji-hong?”
“Kkkkkk… Do you understand now?”
Taehyun turned his head to where he heard the shadow’s voice.
The man’s magical response suddenly became unstable.
That was the energy I felt when I went crazy with my skills.
As expected, his body was consumed by the shadow.
‘Is it a mobile technology?’
It’s already too late to catch it.
It was a shame that I couldn’t use ‘Apocalypse’.
“Congratulations. Taehyun Kim. “I got to die here with Yoo Ah-young, whom I love so much.”
“…?”
Even before Taehyun said what nonsense.
Sssssss.
The guy just said what he wanted and disappeared.
I don’t know what method was used, but I escaped from the labyrinth.
Kugugoogung.
With perfect timing, the labyrinth shook once again.
30 minutes.
Or 20 minutes.
This was the time it took for the labyrinth to be completely destroyed.
“Kim… Taehyun…”
Yoo Ah-young, who had suddenly become conscious, muttered helplessly.
Although I was conscious, I was not in a state where I could move on my own.
“Abandon me…”
“It’s already too late for that.”
30 minutes is not enough to go back from here to the entrance.
More than anything.
If we went back now, of course the entrance would have been blocked.
“I’m sorry…”
Yoo Ah-young shook his mouth.
His name is Night Walker’s guild leader.
How can you be so incompetent?
While she was blaming herself, Taehyun was thinking of a way to get out of the labyrinth.
‘It’s a pity that I don’t have the gate skill in times like this…’
At that time.
A method flashed through Taehyun’s mind.
‘Energy Compose’ and ‘Energy Drain’.
A warp gate created by Ricky Harlis using two skills.
“Shall we try?”
There weren’t many choices.
Coo coo coo coo coo.
Kwasizik.Kwasizik.
In a labyrinth where cracks began to form.
Taehyun unleashed his magic with all his might.
