Episode 477
“The punishment is severe.”
As Taehyun said that, it was time to feel the new strength added to his body.
The message I was waiting for came to mind.
Tiring.
[You have devoured enormous power.]
[Your physical strength increases.]
‘It’s faster than I thought. ‘It’s not outside, is it?’
Otherwise, it may have been because Horus’ eye and body had already been completely digested.
In any case, it wasn’t a bad situation for Taehyun.
‘The more time you save, the better.’
Even then, Cody Cruise seems to be continuing to let out a moan that resembles a scream.
Taehyun said it was a terrible death, but he knows because he once had his blue eyes taken away by Horus.
The screams now are not simply due to the pain of having one’s eyes gouged out.
‘A sharp decline in existence.’
It’s because of the pain that comes from that huge sense of loss.
Taehyun looked down at Cody Cruz indifferently.
“I’ll hear your excuses after the battle is over.”
Tiring.
[The omen of skill evolution (???) has been activated. Specifies the target.]
The screams died down due to the dark blue magic power.
‘It’s difficult to be downgraded like this. Cody Cruz.’
Aside from Taehyeon, he is the only one among humans who has accepted divine power.
It also meant that he had the potential to grow further in the future.
In the future Taehyun envisions, the more power the better.
Of course, this is assuming that rehabilitation is possible.
‘Ricky Harlis is enough to lose precious power. Still, just in case.’
Tiring.
[Skill Chain of Binding (???) has been activated.]
[Skill Energy Drain (???) has been activated.]
[Skill Ataraxia (???) has been activated.]
[Skill Contract of Desire (?? ) ?) has been activated.]
Taehyun took control of Cody Cruz’s mind and planted his magic inside him.
It took a lot of time and manpower to dig deep, but it was a worthwhile investment.
‘Preparations are complete.’
Now is the time to deal with Lucifer.
Taehyun grabbed the chain that bound Cody Cruz’s body.
at that time.
Tiring.
[——-Registered.]
‘This…’
Taehyun paused for a moment at the unexpected message.
Smirk.
The corners of my mouth naturally rose.
Following the rest of the Eye of Horus.
“There is one more card.”
I used the skill, satisfied with the rewards I got from the image world.
[Skill Gate Apostle (???) has been activated.]
[Specifies the coordinates.]
Quaaaaa.
A personal space within a personal space.
The world of imagery that came from there.
Taehyun immediately opened the gate to where Lucifer and the Archdukes were fighting.
“let’s go.”
As if transporting a criminal.
Taehyun crossed the gate with Cody Cruz.
* * *
The first thing I saw when I crossed the gate was a huge bloody cross.
Blood Cross (血十字).
Lucifer, who radiated noble existence, was bound there.
Igmun, connected to the cross, was absorbing enormous existential power, Hazard, who had transformed into a demon dragon, was oppressing him with great spirit, and Gilfer’s dark blue magic was interfering with Lucifer’s regeneration.
Orgal and Typhon’s limbs were not intact, possibly due to Lucifer’s resistance, Jormungand’s Odd Eyes were both pulled out, and Elven’s branches and Rosaria’s tentacles were rolling around on the floor.
“Rosaria?”
Taehyun called out the name of Rosaria, whose body was trembling as purple magic was scattered.
[….]
She twitched and turned her head to Taehyun.
That was about it.
The person who spoke was not Rosaria or any other Grand Duke, but Lucifer.
[this. It was faster than I thought?]
“….”
Taehyun made eye contact with him without saying a word.
It was clearly a situation similar to an execution, but I didn’t like the raised corners of his mouth on his calm expression.
“I don’t think it’s a situation to laugh about.”
The body is bound and unable to use the power of the archdukes, and the contractor, Cody Cruz, has also been subdued and is in Taehyun’s hands.
Even if it’s a loss, it’s not surprising.
This is a situation where predation can be successful if you put your mind to it.
Nevertheless.
‘There is room.’
I felt a sense of discomfort amidst the tense tension.
Tiring.
[Skill Dream King’s Eyes (???) has been strengthened.]
Taehyeon’s red eyes became even darker, and traces of magical power were seen in more detail.
All of the poor figures emerged next to the princes who were pressuring Lucifer.
Orgal is 5,000. Typhon is 6,000. Igmun is 3,000. Elven is 10,000. Gilperga 7,000. Hazard is 30,000. Jormungand 20,000. Rosaria is 300,000.
Except for Rosaria, all of them were so damaged that they could not be said to be at their usual strength.
In comparison, Lucifer’s magical power is 200,000.
It was a number that was not much different from Rosaria.
It is an understandable situation if you consider that the Archdukes became like this to create the current situation and that Rosaria, which maintains a personal space, is the only one that is still alive.
“It’s strange.”
Taehyun muttered and glared at Lucifer.
Tiring.
[Skill Absolute Eyes (???) has been activated.]
Ssssss.
As the divine power drained away, one red eye turned into a blue eye.
And it looked clear.
Lucifer’s magical power was only 200,000.
Next to that, the 800,000 divine power was quantified and floated.
“….”
Taehyun’s eyes trembled slightly.
Lucifer did not miss that moment.
[this. [Did you notice?]
Chuckle.
Contrary to his appearance, his body shook as he laughed frivolously.
Kwasik. Kwasik. Kwasik.
The chains that bound the body and the blood cross that was absorbing the power of existence broke with ridiculous ease.
Tsuzuzu. Tsuzzzz.
Rosaria’s tremors became proportionately more severe.
Lucifer touched his wrist and looked at Taehyun.
[Image world. Is it possible for someone who isn’t even a dream demon to come and go this freely? The more you know, the more surprising he is.]
It is even said that rather than his combat power plummeting, his presence becomes even greater.
Lucifer praised Taehyun, who was holding his contractor’s leash.
“well. I find that more surprising. Did you have the ability to hallucinate?”
Taehyun asked, glancing at the princes who seemed to have stopped, except for Rosaria.
[I don’t think this is reality.]
“Because I have pretty good eyes.”
Red eye and blue eye.
The Eye of the Grand Duke and the Eye of the Absolute.
Lucifer, who recognized the source, responded with satisfaction.
[You have digested both moon eyes. [The growth is visible to the eye.]
He said it felt as if the Absolute Person of the Upper World was standing in front of him.
“Because I don’t like jokes.”
As Taehyun said that, he unleashed his magic power.
I could feel the gray magic power that was interfering with Rosaria’s magic power and disrupting its power.
Damn. Damn it.
Taehyun’s magical power created a crack in the space.
Damn it!!!!
At the same time as the false world is broken.
The grand dukes appeared, looking miserable.
* * *
The appearance of the archdukes just a moment ago was not normal either.
It was nothing compared to what Taehyun could see now.
‘This… is real.’
Orgal Igmun Typhon, whose limbs had been blown off, was rolling around on the floor, unable to regenerate.
Gilper, with all his horns broken, was about to fall.
Hazard’s wings and scales were torn off, and Jormungand’s scales were damaged to the point where bones were visible.
Likewise, the Elven whose arms were blown off was grabbed by the neck by Lucifer and lost all resistance.
Even if Lucifer just broke his neck like that.
‘The presence of the Elven is being diminished.’
From the beginning, this personal space was designed for that purpose.
Taehyun looked at Rosaria, who was the only one standing on her own two legs.
Thousands of tentacle pieces and branches were scattered around her as she maintained her personal space.
She had a pale expression and was oozing purple magic power.
I hate to admit it, but Taehyun catches Cody Cruise for a moment.
All the princes were struck by one Lucifer.
[It was truly a worthy entertainment.]
“Two entertainments and the world will be destroyed.”
[Isn’t that the same for you?]
I didn’t expect Taehyun to subdue his contractor so quickly.
He said he had no idea he could move in and out of the world of images so freely.
‘Speaking of lip service.’
Taehyun thought as he looked at Lucifer’s blue eyes, curved like a crescent moon.
The situation a little while ago.
That’s because it was a remnant of Lucifer’s trick of interfering with Rosaria’s weakened power.
It’s not just Rosaria.
All the archdukes lying around here.
If Lucifer wants to, he can destroy it and aim for a strike from the outside.
It can cause you to experience pain similar to a catastrophe.
Still, that wasn’t the case.
“There must be something you want.”
[indeed. You’re different from those idiots.]
Lucifer said instinctively, looking towards where Typhon was.
“If you ignore a genuine man, you will get hurt a lot later.”
Lucifer laughed at Taehyun’s words and unleashed his gray magic power.
How strong is that power?
The horsepower, which was only 300,000, quickly soared to 400,000.
400,000 horsepower and 800,000 spiritual power.
It was considerable compared to the remaining strength after dealing with the great princes.
‘Let’s hold him here a little longer.’
First of all, the urgent priority was to get the Elven out of its clutches.
[Kim Tae-hyun. The Fairy King is afraid of dying. Are you afraid of losing control of Shinsoo?]
“First of all, we are partners.”
[Partner.]
Lucifer chuckled, remembering his relationship with the King of Underworld.
This is because it is a word that can only be used in an equal relationship, not a superior-subordinate relationship.
Phew.
Taehyun exhaled.
and.
He threw Cody Cruz, who was holding it in his hand, towards Lucifer.
[…?]
“I got drunk, but I didn’t let it go down. “I think I can let go of that hand at this level.”
Kick.
Giggling.
Giggle, giggle, giggle.
Lucifer burst into laughter again.
You hand over your hand first and make your request.
It’s one of two things.
Either you are an idiot who doesn’t even know the basics of negotiation.
Either you have the guts to recognize your opponent’s capabilities and know how to beat them.
That appearance reminds me of the Underworld King of the past.
It wasn’t easy to hold back the laughter that kept coming out.
[It doesn’t seem to be the former.]
Lucifer released his grip on the Elven’s neck.
dump.
Gray magic seeped into it, making high-speed regeneration impossible.
Even though he was freed from his grasp, the Fairy King only trembled and did not make any significant movements.
On the other hand.
Quad deud deuk.
Cody Cruz’s body recovered quickly after being touched by Lucifer’s magic.
My eyes, which had been blurry due to ataraxia, regained their clarity.
[Stand back and watch.]
Just watching will help.
Lucifer thus commanded his contractor.
“….”
Cody Cruz stepped back without saying a word.
[I’m getting tired of this place too.]
As Lucifer said that, two swords were placed in his hands.
Balmung, a holy sword made of divine power.
Gram, a magic sword made of magical power.
What could be called Cody Cruise’s season was made like a toy.
“There’s a problem with the weapon.”
Taehyun, who had encountered ‘arrogance’ before, immediately grasped the situation.
Tiring.
[Skill True Blood (???) has been strengthened.]
[Skill Heart of the Demon Beast (???) has been strengthened.]
[Skill Great Demon Heart (???) has been strengthened.]
Kiiiii-.
The three spinning magic stones screamed.
[Skill Energy Compose (???) has been activated. Specifies the shape.]
Tsuzuzuzu.
A blood sword made of blood-red magic.
I created Igmun’s signature weapon and held it in my hand.
[Are you trying to imitate a vampire?]
He says imitation is not enough to deal with him.
Lucifer clicked his tongue and declared.
“Imitate.”
Taehyun shook his head and controlled his magical power.
If you are not confident.
“It hasn’t even started.”
Tiring.
[Skill Apocalypse (???) has been activated.]
Huaaaaaaaaaaaaa.
Darkness fell over the area.
[Once a catch is broken twice….]
Even before Lucifer finished speaking.
Tiring.
[Skill Lust of Desire (???) has been activated. [Specifies the target.]
Dark blue magic enveloped the fallen Elven and Igmun.
therefore.
[Skill Blood Field (???) has been activated.]
[Skill Divine Beast Realm (???) has been activated.]
Tsuzuzuzuzu.
Kiiii.
Igmun and Elven.
Blood-red magic and colorless magic overlaid the apocalypse.
They imitated the territory of the two grand dukes by claiming their status as contractors.
[….]
“Lucifer. You have enough stamina, right?”
[The skill source element (???) has been activated.]
A thunderbolt is wrapped around the blood sword.
Taehyun jumped out.
