Part 2 Episode 39 Tsuzuzuzu-
.
Taehyun strengthened his energy drain.
It was not to help Shinji absorb it, but to absorb it himself.
[Sigh….]
The devil began to breathe heavily.
The poison surrounding the thorns disappeared everywhere, and the light of life was going out inside the enemy.
In proportion to that, Taehyun was filled with a sense of fulfillment.
at the same time.
Tiring.
[The ‘Tower Manager’ shakes his head.]
[The ‘Tower Manager’ looks around.]
[Skill ‘Pandora’s Box (SS)’ is strengthened.]
[Magic power consumption is accelerated.]
‘Is that really the case?’
Taehyun stopped draining energy.
As ‘Pandora’s Box’ was strengthened, more magic power than what was filled with energy drain was being drained.
Magical energy that has not yet been digested is circling within the body.
“Kim Tae-hyun…”
Shinji looked at him with an expression as if he was wondering what was going on.
The devil’s tail piercing his chest was as dry as an old tree due to excessive ‘energy drain’.
“Even if it hurts, just endure it a little.”
Taehyun raised his hand.
and.
“what…?”
Before Shinji could even react.
Phew.
Taehyun put his hand into Shinji’s body in place of the devil’s tail.
“Kak…”
Shinji spilled a handful of blood.
Tsuzuzuzu-.
Taehyun spit out the magic power he had sucked from the devil.
‘It’s not efficient.’
It is not even able to absorb 10% of the magical energy it has absorbed.
slap.
Taehyun slapped Shinji on the cheek with his other hand.
His red eyes, which were bleeding, met Taehyun’s.
“Focus on the magic stone. “Suck it up as much as you can.”
“…!!”
It was only for a moment that Shinji’s eyes wavered.
Kiiiii-.
The guy’s magic gem let out a roar.
The efficiency of absorbing magical power is further increased.
[‘Tower Manager’ nods.]
[Skill ‘Pandora’s Box (SS)’ is stabilized.]
[Magic power consumption is stabilized.]
“As expected….”
Taehyun nodded alone. It was.
This is because the laws of the tower, which had never been understood, began to fit together like puzzle pieces.
‘There are two laws at work.’
The ‘Law of the World’ that Taehyun experienced in the past and the ‘Law of the Tower’ that operates in the present world.
The laws of the world are known through experience.
The choice of words varies depending on the power of existence, and after several reincarnations, the curse of oblivion was created for higher beings.
‘The law of the tower is probably a strengthening of the law of the world.’
Singularity obtained through regression.
Differences in information and the resulting monopoly of rapid growth.
It reminded me of the words ‘stability’ and ‘order’ in the tower that Tolkien mentioned several times.
The warning came when Taehyun attempted rapid growth in the same way as before.
Personal space was like that before, and energy drain is like that now.
If there is a difference.
‘There was no warning in raising others.’
If you are looking for a gap, this is the spot.
Stability of the tower.
It is an order maintained by law.
Order of the tower.
That is a law maintained by stability.
‘You twisted it in a difficult way.’
Taehyun grinned.
Simply put, the by-products you get from helping others grow do not violate the law of the tower.
Tolkien tried to let people know that fact through his own message.
‘Thank you, Tolkien.’
Taehyun expressed his gratitude to his close friend who was probably watching him from somewhere.
This regression was twisted from the start.
It seems like they have finally found a clue to speeding up the pace.
Kiiiii-.
At that moment, the roaring sound made by the Demon Sword’s magic stone was fading away.
“Haaa….”
The demon sword let out a faint breath.
I can feel a deep magical power in my breath.
The opened red eyes were shining menacingly.
This is a familiar sight to Taehyun.
“Have you grown?”
“…okay.”
The ghost sword did not deny it and nodded.
Even I was unfamiliar with the sudden growth.
Once when meeting Taehyun and creating a magic stone. And once against higher-ranking species.
This is because we have overcome two barriers in less than two months.
“Shinji. “This is the devil’s hidden space.”
how do you do that
I didn’t ask such a useless question.
“I don’t even know how I ended up here.”
It’s not a lie.
It’s not like they knew all of the Grand Dukes’ territory in the vast underworld.
This is especially true if the section is not the deepest part but the deepest part.
so that.
“This is an opportunity that will never come again.”
“…?”
Taehyun raised the corners of his mouth as he looked at the ghost sword’s puzzled face.
Unless unusual methods are attempted, like Jormungand, there is an upper limit to its ability to remain in the depths.
I don’t know if it’s Igmun.
In his memories, Beelzebub did not have the ability to break such laws.
“At best, it will be guarded by one or two half-baked top species.”
“….”
“Let us sweep this place.”
“….”
The demon sword sighed.
It’s because I discovered a familiar emotion in Taehyun’s eyes.
Madness.
That is a wrong feeling that we have seen time and again through saints.
‘Have your eyes turned to the clues to growth?’
If true, it is dangerous.
“Taehyun Kim. No matter what, staying in the enemy camp alone is…”
Tuk.
Taehyun put both hands on his shoulders to silence him.
“Shinji. “Saints like strong men.”
“….”
“I.”
Taehyun stared into the slightly shaking red eyes of the ghost sword.
“I will make you a strong man.”
* * *
Hidden space located on the 4th floor.
This place, where various experiments were conducted, was presided over by the ancient great evil Gorper.
They are a demon race that is evaluated as being more numerous and stronger than any other monster in the underworld.
In the secret realm of the demon race, two humans were running wild.
[Kahak….]
[Kek….]
[Let go….]
Taehyun ignored the struggles of the three demons and strengthened the magic stone.
Kiiiii-.
SSS level. It is overflowing with magical power that is worthy of being of the highest quality.
There is no way that three high-ranking monsters could handle that power.
“Do not resist. “I have no intention of killing you.”
Taehyun spoke calmly and strengthened the energy drain.
Through some experiments, we learned that Taehyun directly killing monsters is also against the laws of the tower.
Therefore, the energy drain was controlled as much as possible to prevent the monsters from dying.
and.
In the middle of three demons.
Shinji, who had been pierced by the thorns and tail horn, was groaning and spinning the magic stone.
This is because all the magical energy sucked from the demons is directed towards him.
“Hold on, Shinji!”
Taehyun shouted and intensified his absorption of magical energy.
“Khaak….”
I burst into tears. I’m crying.
The ghost sword vomited blood several times.
The blood was discolored black, as if it had been poisoned.
“Stop… It’s the limit…”
The demon sword spoke as if chewing.
“Hold on. “Do you know how common a medicine this good is?”
Taehyun cut off his doctor with a single sword.
Magical power imbued with poison is a tonic?
“Stop…tell me…”
He shakes it off.
The nose and eyes of a demon sword kneeling while holding a sword. Black blood was leaking from my ears.
It meant that the body could not withstand the devils’ fraud.
“Tsk. When you become weak.”
Taehyun lifted the chains that were binding the three demons.
dump. dump. dump.
The three demons fell helplessly like a withered old tree.
Unlike when he first appeared in front of Taehyun, he looked shabby.
[The ‘Tower Manager’ turns his eyes to the terrible scene.]
[The ‘Tower Manager’ feels guilty for an unknown reason.]
[The ‘Tower Manager’ feels a sense of kinship for an unknown reason.]
Tolkien’s unimportant message Ignoring it, Taehyun checked the status window.
The grade is still stuck at SS.
But I feel it.
The enormous pressure that was weighing down his body had eased a little.
‘slow.’
Even when using predation, growth occurred within the upper limit of what Taehyun’s body could accept.
And now, the target is not his body, but the body of the ghost sword.
Taehyun looked down at the ghost who had collapsed and was out of breath.
He did all the fighting himself.
I took away the magical power of the demons that appeared and stabbed them.
It’s like hunting like an emperor and then collapsing and gasping for breath.
“Lazy guy.”
I hit all the magic power of ten high-ranking species, but less than 10% was properly absorbed.
As Shinji said, if he continued like this, there was a high risk that even the magic gemstone he had created would break.
‘I found a way to become stronger… and this variable…’
Taehyun clicked his tongue and shook his head.
Even though I know that it can fulfill this role because it is a ghost sword.
I couldn’t help but feel regretful.
at that time.
[What an unbelievable sight.]
Flap.
A new monster landed in front of me with a light breeze.
I feel a sense of intimidation that is different from the demons I have seen before.
“It’s the highest species.”
Taehyun blocked the way of the ghost sword and drew out his dragon slayer sword.
This is because it is a difficult opponent for him to deal with due to his lack of experience.
[human. Do you know where this is?]
“Do I need to know?”
Taehyun asked back as he infused magical energy into the dragon slayer sword.
[….]
The corner of the devil’s mouth twitched.
His red eyes scanned Taehyeon and the ghost sword’s bodies.
[The original demon is the one who serves desire.]
“Desire…?”
[okay. This is the domain of the great devil Gorfer.]
“…!!”
Taehyun recalled a past relationship.
The ancient archdemon Gorfer.
Gilpere’s brother and a demon who controls desire.
He was the guy who gave Taehyun his one defeat.
“Then you must be a member of the family.”
[You are a spy sent by Igmun.]
Those were the words spoken at the same time.
‘what. ‘Is this what happens?’
Taehyeon and Ghost Sword were constantly fighting by imitating Igmun’s power, absorption.
Just like the other time with Sphinx and Mule.
In their eyes, it was natural that Taehyun and Shinji were seen as Igmun’s contractors.
‘Take advantage of the current situation.’
Taehyun shrugged his shoulders.
“then?”
[It is war.]
Arrogance and hostility.
A mixture of anger and irritation vomited out.
The corners of Taehyun’s mouth began to twitch more and more.
[Something like an insignificant demon. Do you think the Vampire Lord is afraid of war?]
He subtly mixed the language of the vampires with the arrogance typical of the highest species.
[On the topic of maintaining the archduke’s power at best. Do you think they are on the same level just because they are Grand Dukes?]
[The Lord is someone who will one day chew up even the Demon King.]
Demon Bahram burst out laughing.
[I got my hands on a pretty crazy contractor. When you see him doing something like this, you can guess his condition.]
Dark blue magical power bloomed from Bahram’s body.
The power of existence is strengthened by using the power received from Gorper.
[The current uproar. If I could get Igmun’s contractor for that price, it wouldn’t be that bad.]
Taehyun was sure that the devil in front of him clearly thought of himself as Igmun’s contractor.
The guy in front of me is a top species that has inherited quite a lot of power.
Even if it’s Taehyun, there’s a high risk of losing if you don’t do your best.
‘I’m sorry, Igmun. Instead, I’ll make sure to clean up afterwards.’
Kyaang!!
Punching away the thorns that come out.
Taehyun burrowed into the devil’s arms.
* * *
Gorfer made a bewildered face at the sight before his eyes.
Hidden space.
This is because one of the ten secret spaces that he controls is almost destroyed.
No, I was embarrassed to even say it was destruction.
There were demons scattered on the floor, lifeless and like mummies.
The only ones who died were the manager, Bahram, and a few higher-ranking species.
He looked down at Bahram’s body, his limbs torn apart.
As if it had been a melee, the thorns and tail wing horns were all cut in a deformed manner.
and.
Gorfer checked the vampire language scrawled on the floor.
I wrote the text with angry eyes.
Deciphering it wasn’t difficult.
After all, the language of monsters has the same roots.
[Igmun. Is this bastard truly crazy?]
Anger surged in Gorfer’s body.
The deciphered language of the vampires was as follows.
[The Vampire Lord informs the demons.
Bloody judgment will come soon.]
