Episode 131 Baek Woo-jin, who arrived at the 6th floor of Lion’s Castle (2),
smiled when he saw the three undead that appeared in front of him.
“I know those guys well.”
-It’s Dullahan.
A high-level undead Dullahan, carrying a huge flesh-covered ax on his shoulder and holding his own head in his left hand, was glaring at Baek Woo-jin while burning natural fire.
-The best attack used by Dullahan is charging. It’s fast and powerful, so be careful.
“The head is your weak point, right?”
-It is true that it is a weak point, but their strongest part is also their head. Usually I aim somewhere else.
“The head is the hardest.”
Baek Woo-jin rushed towards Dullahan with a strange smile. Before Dullahan reacted, he struck the guy’s head with his sword.
Pow!
It wasn’t a black king bullet, but a swordsmanship with a level 5 aura, but the sturdy Dullahan’s head burst like a balloon.
“So…”
The Dullahan, whose head exploded, could not even scream before it turned into ashes and disappeared.
“Big!”
“Kaaah!”
The moment the Dullahans on both sides prepared to charge at Baek Woo-jin, the Armin Sword turned and gave off two bursts of light.
Sigh!
The Dullahans couldn’t even move their feet as the two swords flew like beams of light, and their heads exploded.
“Keuuu….”
“Kuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu…”
The two Dullahan also turned to ash and melted to the floor.
“If the 6th floor is a Dullahan, then the 7th floor is a Death Knight, right?”
Baek Woo-jin had a calm expression on his face even after he took care of the three Dyurahans in an instant.
“Let’s go to the next floor.”
-The stronger the undead, the more fraudulent the title becomes.
It was absurd.
It would be understandable if many aurors were used, but Baek Woo-jin smashed Dullahan’s head with only level 5 aurors.
Even a level 5 ability person can catch a Dullahan, but no one can crush a Dullahan’s head with a level 5 Auror.
Only this lucky incarnation was able to do this.
“What is this again?”
Baek Woo-jin’s steps, which were moving forward like a bulldozer, stopped in front of the stairs on the 7th floor.
“bone?”
This is because the front of the stairs leading to the 7th floor was blocked by golden bones.
The thick bones were interlaced in such a detailed manner that they were so dense that the back could not be seen. It seemed like a wall made of bones had been built.
-Is the passage blocked? Go back?
“You can’t do that.”
Baek Woo-jin used a vertical slash to hit the wall of bones.
Quaaaang!
There was a huge explosion and shaking, but there was not a single scratch on the golden bones.
-It’s solid. It’s not an ordinary bone.
“Are you saying it’s real from here?”
Although the bone wall was not destroyed, Baek Woo-jin laughed. Now this castle is starting to become fun.
“Let’s see if this holds up.”
Baek Woo-jin raised his sword again. His sword began to bear the weight of a mountain.
**
Kugugoogung!
The tower of bones that had risen to the ceiling collapsed in a huge tremor that shook the entire castle.
Tuk.
The pure white fingers that were holding the last piece to put on the tower trembled.
“….”
This lich with bright blue flames blooming in his empty eyeballs was none other than Carden, the current owner of the Lion’s Castle.
“Fess!”
At Carden’s call, the door opened and the castle’s general manager, Fes, hurried in.
“What’s going on?”
“A Chi intruder has come in.”
“Tsk, you pushed it in so deep, did you find the key?”
Carden clicked his tongue in frustration.
I hid it deep down because people coming to the Lion’s Castle were annoying, but I don’t know how they found it.
“But why are you leaving it unprocessed? “What is this fuss about?”
“That…”
“Stop being frustrating and talk quickly.”
“It took less than an hour to get up to the seventh floor. “It is a monster itself.”
“Have some imperial knights or hero party come here?”
“no. “There is only one person.”
“what? one person?”
At the mention of only one person, the flames in Carden’s eyes burned as if they were about to explode.
“I really am one person. It broke the keel of the 6th floor and is heading to the 7th floor. “The vibration that just occurred was the sound of him breaking the keel.”
“crazy!”
Carden was scared and took out a crystal ball.
The keel that blocks the stairs to the 7th floor is a dragon bone handed over by its owner.
Most of the invaders lost their lives in front of the keel because the golden bones were not only hard, but also had the ability to turn into spears and swords to fight back.
I couldn’t believe that the keel broke so easily and quickly.
“Huh!”
A scream came out of Carden’s mouth when he saw the crystal ball. The Dragonborn was completely reduced to dust and disappeared without a trace.
“Oh, how…”
“That guy destroyed this keel’s defense ability before it even activated.”
“Is this guy? “This young guy broke the keel?”
“That’s right.”
“What is this…”
His face was a bit peculiar, but just by looking at his appearance, I could tell he was young.
No matter how much I thought about it, I couldn’t believe that a guy like that broke the keel and reached the 7th floor in 1 hour.
“Prepare the Death Knight!”
“We have already placed it on the 7th floor. But if the Death Knight gets hit too…”
“Have you already forgotten what’s on the 8th floor?”
“ah!”
Fes nodded.
He was right. Even if the Death Knight on the 7th floor gets through, he can never get through the 8th floor.
“The 8th floor cannot be penetrated by humans.”
There are no monsters on the 8th floor, but no one has escaped from there and reached the 9th floor.
“Because what’s there is the curse of Class 9.”
The magic circle installed on the 8th floor is an invitation to the curse magic reaper that he has installed for decades.
If you are caught by the Reaper’s invitation, the empty space turns into a swamp of death that sucks the spirit and vitality of humans.
A cursed person instantly loses their vitality and turns into a mummy.
“It will feel much more comfortable to be killed by a Death Knight. “Huh!”
Carden dropped the crystal ball. He looked at the fallen crystal ball as if he were mesmerized.
“Why are you doing that?”
“That doesn’t make sense…”
Carden jumped up from his chair and looked at the crystal ball again. But the scene I saw earlier did not change.
“The Death Knight has been destroyed.”
“yes? What is that…”
“All the Death Knights are dead! “What is this bastard!”
Carden’s jaw trembled.
The intruder destroyed two Death Knights in less than a minute. It was an unbelievable speed.
Suddenly,
Carden gritted his teeth and clenched his fists.
“Prepare to activate the curse!”
**
“Tsk.”
Baek Woo-jin clicked his tongue when he saw the collapsed corpse of the Death Knight.
“I was expecting it, but it was rune level.”
I had high expectations when I saw the two Death Knights that appeared on the 7th floor, but their lights were red.
When we actually clashed swords, it turned out to be a death knight worse than the one that came out of the crack.
They were not able to withstand even one second of Gwan Il-geuk, who summoned Gyeop-hwa, and both turned to ashes and disappeared.
-I told you. You’ve become too strong. In particular, that title is no different from the devil.
“Hmm…”
-Unless there is a Khan-level Death Knight or Arch Lich on top of this, there will be nothing that can withstand your sword.
“Then I guess I’ll have to hope for those two.”
Baek Woo-jin climbed the stairs to the 8th floor with anticipation. Contrary to expectations, the 8th floor was empty.
“It’s empty?”
-I can see the stairs leading to the last floor right away.
As the darkness said, the stairs leading to the 9th floor were visible in front of me. You could go straight to the 9th floor by simply walking.
Although the energy of death was felt, there was not a single undead visible on the 8th floor.
-There may be a trap. Be careful.
“okay.”
Baek Woo-jin nodded and walked one step forward.
Paaaat!
The moment Baek Woo-jin stepped onto the 8th floor, the entire floor began to turn black.
Coo coo coo coo.
The floor sank like a swamp and the ceiling collapsed.
“Hmm…”
Baek Woo-jin tried to move his legs, but his feet wouldn’t move.
“My legs aren’t moving.”
-It’s not real. It’s a fantasy! Wake!
The floor turned into a black swamp like ink. Black energy surged from the swamp and covered Baek Woo-jin.
-You bastard! I told you it was a trap!
“are you okay.”
-What is okay?
“It’s really okay. wait.”
The energy of death in the black swamp was so strong that it took my breath away, but Baek Woo-jin was leisurely closing his eyes.
– Baek Woo-jin!
Just before black energy enveloped his entire body, a clear notification sound rang.
Ding!
[Title ‘Undead Slayer’ nullified the curse spell ‘Reaper’s Invitation’.]
As soon as the hologram window announced that the curse had been lifted, the energy of death and the black swamp surrounding Baek Woo-jin disappeared.
-What is this? I understand the curse, but why is it being lifted? Why is there an undead slayer here?
“You didn’t know?”
-what?
“Did you faint and couldn’t see properly? “The options for an undead slayer are not only increased attack and defense.”
-Huh?
“Look all the way down.”
Baek Woo-jin showed the undead slayer’s options again.
-Uh, you don’t get affected by abnormal status attacks used by undead?
“This means that black magic used by the undead, such as curses or confusion and mind control, does not work on me.”
-So you said it was okay?
“okay.”
-This is a fart! Ouch!
The darkness screamed and fell backwards.
Many of the attack spells used by lichs are mental attacks such as curses or confusion control.
I wondered if this was really human luck, ignoring such magic and curses with just one title.
Nullifying that status ailment felt more like a scam than increasing attack power and defense by 60%.
“I guess this is everything on the 8th floor.”
Baek Woo-jin chuckled as he stepped around the 8th floor. It seems that the owner of this castle only believed in the curse of the 8th floor.
“Let’s go to the last floor.”
-You go. I’m so weak I can’t move.
“We should go together.”
Baek Woo-jin held on to the black rock that fluttered like paper and climbed the stairs to the last floor.
**
“That’s it. “It’s activated.”
Carden breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, the curse was completed before that damn human reached the 8th floor.
I could feel at ease now. No matter how strong he is, he will wither and die in the swamp of death, unable to even move a finger.
“It’s over now.”
“You go back and clean up after yourself… hehe!”
Carden’s jaw joint opened wide. He was so startled that he fell back on his chair.
“Why are you doing that?”
“What is that guy! “Are you really human?”
The intruder, who was supposed to be unable to move after being invited by the Shinigami, was moving around as if nothing had happened.
The eyes of the man who should have been covered by death were as clear as looking at the blue sky.
“Am I really dreaming?”
The Reaper’s Invitation is a class 8 magic, but thanks to the items given by its owner and the magic circle it has installed, it is more powerful than the class 9 magic.
Even legendary saints and saints should not be able to escape, but it was beyond his understanding for a human without divinity to pass through the invitation of a Shinigami.
“Oh it’s coming!”
I saw an unknown intruder crossing the eighth floor and coming up to the ninth floor.
“yes?”
“He broke through the Shinigami’s invitation. “They’re going to attack here!”
“omg! I will buy time! Prepare for another spell!”
Quaaaang!
As Fes was about to go out the door, it burst open.
“Kkuek!”
Fes was swept away by the bursting door and fell backwards without being able to do anything.
“Ugh…”
It was a ridiculous sight, but Carden couldn’t help but laugh. If I were human, my whole body would be soaked in cold sweat.
“Is this the last floor?”
The dust cleared, revealing the intruder.
A person who looked younger than when seen through a crystal ball was smiling with a relaxed expression.
“You’re human. But how…”
I thought it might be a dragon or a demon from another dimension, but it wasn’t. The man in front was a human being with vast vitality.
“What are you! “How did a human overcome the 9th class curse?”
Carden screamed and his whole body trembled. For the first time since becoming a lich, it felt like I was dreaming.
-What is it? He’s the incarnation of luck who throws away the legendary title because the legendary items aren’t enough. Oh, now that I say it, I’m getting angry again.
The darkness muttered as if overcome by evil.
