Episode 313:
The deepest part of the Abyss, where the Dukes’ castles are located.
It is not easy for rumors to spread in such a vast place.
In that respect, Taehyun accomplished something that was not easy.
That’s because his actions and personality could be heard even in Hazard’s ears.
[Arrogance beyond the highest species. They say it’s a madness that goes beyond even arrogance. It wasn’t a rumor.]
Asisat Ebi.
Hazard, who is in control of her body, evaluated Taehyun’s actions that way.
“Arrogance is the best compliment among monsters, right?”
Tiring.
[Skill Knight King’s Spirit (SSS) has been strengthened. Magic power consumption has accelerated. Output: 100%]
[Skill Sovereign’s Spirit (SSS) has been strengthened. Magic power consumption has accelerated. Output: 100%]
Kugugugung.
The spirit weighing down Asisat Ebi has strengthened.
Nevertheless, there was no sign of confusion on his face.
just.
Smirk.
[This is great spirit.]
I just appreciate Taehyun’s strength.
That appearance was in no way inferior to Taehyun’s arrogance.
‘Can you withstand this much force?’
Taehyun thought this and his red eyes flashed.
The ‘higher species heart’ and ‘higher species eyes’ were strengthened and insight was revealed.
Asisat Ebi’s body was seen.
Just like Rosaria.
We don’t know how Hazard took Asisat Ebi’s body.
But one thing is certain: the magic flowing through her body has become stronger than ever before.
Bordeaux is showing his full power against Asmodeus from afar.
To the extent that he is not using his powers.
‘If this much power is contained…’
Taehyun predicted the limits of that power.
‘Is it about Bordeaux using authority?’
In other words, if you raise your power to the limit, you will be strengthened to the level of a rampaging Asmodeus.
It was a risk that was difficult to handle without using ‘predation’.
[The price of searching the body of the main dragon is not light.]
Asisat Ebi’s hair was flying.
That alone showed his spirit.
Kugugoogung.
The same technique that Taehyun used.
It was a technology that strengthened gravity, a property of the Gold clan.
“It’s a battle of mettle… How far can you use that body?”
Tiring.
[Skill Apocalypse (SSS) has been strengthened. Magic power consumption accelerates.]
Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrl Sigh.
Kugugoogung.
As all kinds of skills were fused together, the power pressing down on Asisat Ebi became even stronger.
[It’s nothing for you to worry about.]
As if to prove her words, Asisat Ebi took a step toward Taehyeon.
Crack. Quad deuk.
Every time I took a step, the bones in my body were crushed and regenerated repeatedly.
Taehyun frowned at that sight.
Although he didn’t show it, he considered her his partner.
Hazard was also the same as not showing it.
It’s said to be compatible with his magical power.
From the beginning, the limitations of the human body are clear.
Even if it was strengthened with the power of spirit, this was the limit.
As Taehyun thought, he could temporarily use Bordeaux’s level of power.
As a result of that risk, Asisat Ebi’s mind and body will have to be destroyed due to irreversible shock.
I had no intention of losing the body I had managed to save like that.
For Hazard, it’s more than six elders.
Asisat Ebi’s body, which can travel across Earth, is more valuable.
of course.
[I might change my mind if I find a new contractor.]
Hazard’s earnest gaze turned to Taehyun.
The insect-like human body was trained to create the body of the highest species.
If you can get your hands on that body, it will have many uses.
If I could handle just that body, I would be able to tear apart the restrictions of the Abyss created by the King of the Underworld.
When I actually used Asisat Ebi’s body, I became greedy.
Even if it means taking on the risk and disposing of this miserable body.
I wanted to get my hands on that body.
In order to do that, it was necessary to confuse Kim Tae-hyun, who was acting like a rat.
[How much do you know about Haki?]
“….”
Taehyun didn’t answer and kept an eye on her next move.
This is because I think it is a trap unique to archdukes.
Asisat Ebi continued as if she did not care.
[The previous two skills. That’s similar to the Gold clan’s temperament.]
“You’re playing tricks.”
She didn’t care about Taehyun’s words.
[The third spirit was artificially made to belong to the Black clan. However, these are all just simple imitations.]
Coo coo coo coo.
“…!!”
Suddenly, a huge amount of magical power boiled up.
As if ink was falling out.
Asisat Ebi’s hair began to bleach white.
And slowly.
Her hair was dyed seven colors.
Taehyun also did not know that the colors symbolized each clan of the dragon clan.
Tiring.
[Skill Demon Dragon’s Mettle (SSS) has been detected.]
[Skill Knight King’s Mettle (SSS) has been overwhelmed. The skill is cancelled.]
[The skill lord’s spirit (SSS) has been overwhelmed. The skill is cancelled.]
[Skill Apocalypse (SSS) has been overwhelmed. The skill is cancelled.]
“…!!”
In an instant, three mettles were canceled.
All that remained was ‘Dragon’s Fury’.
[okay. In the end, that’s all that’s left. [You said you got it by killing a member of the Red clan, right?]
She asked, appreciating it as if savoring his spirit.
Taehyun looked at the status window and watched.
[You swallowed a member of the Red clan, but you couldn’t digest its nature.]
Asisat Ebi looked at him with knowing eyes.
If Taehyun truly understood the spirit, the nature of the Red clan.
This is because the burning flame had to be contained in the spirit.
“If it’s a lesson, it’s a no-no.”
Tiring.
[Skill Dragon’s Rage (SSS) has been strengthened. Magic power consumption is accelerated. Output: 70%]
Crrrrr!!
A huge spirit arose.
Asisat Ebi’s hair fluttered from the force.
She clicked her tongue as her body began to tingle.
[Tsk tsk. My body is hardened to this degree. It’s a body that only feels disappointing the more you use it.]
“Isn’t that something you should do with your own body?”
[Skill Dragon’s Rage (SSS) has been strengthened. Magic power consumption is accelerated. Output: 100%]
Klarara!!
Asisat Ebi’s face was scratched, as if she had been cut by something sharp.
Grumble.
She patted the blood running down my cheek.
[It seems that this is the limit to the amount of mettle that can be used. Now it is the main dragon’s turn.]
Black magic bloomed from her body.
A little different from what the Black clan used.
It was a power closer to the abyss.
[Look.]
Coo coo coo coo.
Tiring.
[Skill Demon Dragon’s Fragment (???) has been detected.]
[Skill Dragon’s Rage (SSS) has been overwhelmed. The skill is cancelled.]
‘The devil’s side?!!’
It was a skill I had never seen before.
More than anything, I was shocked that the enhanced Dragon’s Rage could be canceled so easily.
[They say bugs have something called a status window. What appeared before your eyes?]
“….”
[There’s nothing to be surprised about. This power is something you will ultimately have to deal with. It is only a small part of the power that the King of the Upper World has.]
“No way…”
[Yes. Baal, King of the Upper World. No, it is the original power possessed by the Demon Dragon King Baal. In the Underworld, it was a power that only the main dragon could use… but now it seems that’s not the case.]
Asisat Ebi’s gaze turned to Asmodeus, who was fighting Bordeaux.
A similar magical energy was flowing out of that body, which had become even larger.
[ruler. then. This is the end of the reward for the previous test.]
Where to eat raw.
Even before Taehyun said those words.
[Shall I try to bring you down with this power?]
Kugugugung.
The energy of a demonic dragon flowing from Asisat Ebi.
Pieces of that power began to tighten Taehyeon’s whole body.
Countless messages came to mind.
All of them were ominous.
* * *
Taehyun is well aware of the limitations of Asisat Ebi’s body.
This is because it is clearly visible in the strengthened enemy eyes.
It’s an incredible power.
‘The demonic dragon’s spirit… was just downgraded to reside in a human body.’
Otherwise, I couldn’t understand that ‘comfort’ was stronger than ‘passion’.
[Kim Tae-hyun. You deserve this power.]
‘…!!’
[ruler. Use the power of the king. With that power, it will eat this body. If you do that, you can also obtain the power of the main dragon.]
Asisat Ebi.
The woman who lost ownership of her body to Hazard said with a smile.
Reasonably.
It’s a suggestion that doesn’t hurt either side.
Hazard can draw on the king’s power and witness the desired phenomenon, and Taehyeon can obtain Hazard’s power, which was his original goal.
It would be strange to worry about it.
[no way. Are you worried about the owner of this body?]
“….”
Hazard took Taehyun’s silence as an affirmation.
Ha ha ha ha ha.
She let out a laugh that was neither monster nor human.
[You guys call that humanity, right?]
Hazard, who had some understanding of the human race, asked that question.
[It’s a vain feeling. That will only become an obstacle to future wars.]
That is not wrong.
Turf war. And tribal war.
Taehyun will kill and lose many people.
[Ego. eat me If you don’t feast on it, it is your body that is taken away.]
Kugugugung.
“…!!”
The spirit that oppressed Taehyun became stronger.
At the same time, black blood flowed from Asisat Ebi’s red eyes.
The same goes for your nose and mouth.
The risk of using force is coming.
‘If things continue like this, there will be total destruction.’
I had to choose.
And Taehyun.
The choice had already been made even before receiving the offer.
“It’s a rejection. Hazard.”
[You are disappointing the main dragon.]
“No.”
Now that you know what you want.
You will get that power anyway.
Taehyun didn’t say those words out loud.
Nevertheless, the meaning seemed to have been sufficiently conveyed.
Asisat Ebi smiled and strengthened the ‘Demon Dragon’s spirit.’
By activating ‘Blue Dragon’s Scale’, I raised my body’s abilities.
It was a heavy force for Taehyun, whose abilities had not fully recovered, to withstand.
‘Now this is really the limit.’
If they had endured any longer, both Taehyeon and Asisat Evi would have suffered permanent physical and mental damage.
[Do you want to engage in close combat to show off?]
Hazard asked in a mocking voice.
at that time.
Kwaang!!
There was an explosion.
It was about a second later that I realized that the explosion was the sound of Asmodeus stepping on the ground.
Wow!!
Asmodeus rammed into Asisat Ebi.
One of Asisat Ebi’s arms was held in the mouth of the demon dragon of memories.
Crack. Crack.
Asmodeus chewed and swallowed the arm as if it were a delicacy.
at the same time.
[Now just a little bit. Reason. You’re coming back. It’s thanks to you. Hazard.]
Unlike the body that was completely ruined after a series of battles.
Asmodeus said with his red eyes flashing.
Where the red eye was directed was Asisat Ebi, who lost an arm.
[dare. Was it aimed at the main dragon?]
Kugugugung.
The spirit that had been focused on Taehyun all along overwhelmed Asmodeus.
Asmodeus’s once hard scales began to break apart.
[K…Kk…. The answer… well… I understand… Hazard….]
[Lord!!]
I could feel Bordeaux rushing in from afar.
But first, Asmodeus’ body swelled.
I’ve seen it in Rosaria’s memories.
‘The power of the King of the Upper World!!’
Taehyun instinctively wrapped his entire body in magical energy.
[Let’s see again. Taehyun Kim. The Key to the King of the Underworld.]
At the same time.
Kwaaaang!!
A huge explosion occurred.
