Episode 118. Demon Castle (4)
[Demon Castle of Hunting].
When the location of the rift was discovered, players flocked to it.
Among them, there were those who reached the rift faster than Hoyeol.
Wasn’t it Ho-yeol who always acted the same way?
“I bet you. If it’s Hoyeol-nim, 100% will come to this demon castle of hunting! How can you be sure? No, can’t you just look at the patch history?”
As a player, there is a jjambab that I ate.
It’s about figuring out the difficulty of attacking the rift.
A look at the patch history was enough.
“Who is our Ho-yeol-nim putting off difficult tasks for someone? To the point where I wonder if it’s a crowd. How many times have you shown yourself taking the lead by entering cracks that others couldn’t even dare?”
Indeed, the prediction was right.
News of other rifts arriving through and through.
Even in [Demon King of Rhythm].
Even in the [Demonic Castle of Indulgence].
It was breaking news that Ho-yeol did not show up.
[Demon King of Hunting] The players waiting in front of it already swallowed their mouths.
‘This is a big deal.’
A grand vision that unfolds in your head.
How many giant forces were moving at this moment?
The Shadow Mercenary Corps in the silent Lion Heart Knights.
The Holy Knights of the Goddess Church, of course.
In fact, even the Magic Tower, which started an external activity for the first time!
‘Actually, just filming that activity is a hit.’
Yes, even if only their performance can be included in the angle, it will be able to attract a lot of attention.
But even that was not enough, so the heat remained.
“Aren’t you excited? The appearance of Ho-yeol leading the forces!”
that is of interest
number of views.
Leaving Nettube angle.
If you were an Arcana player, it was only natural that your heart fluttered.
who would have imagined? I never thought the day would come when one player would lead a force like this to conquer the rift.
And in that huge expectation.
Hoyeol appeared.
With only two allies.
“…what?”
It was an instant that expectations turned into doubts.
Those who watched couldn’t help but be taken aback.
-Is it true? Only 3 people??? Lol??
-No, this is a different story from [Crack in the Broken Dimension] -That
‘s why it was like a bug, and this is a regular update….
There are tens of thousands of troops gathered in the [Demon King of Rhythm].
The number of troops gathered in the [Demon King of Indulgence] was 100.
Because I knew the size.
“…Something is a little different from what I imagined?”
Among the three demonic fissures.
[Demon Castle of Hunting] boasts the highest difficulty level.
Although it was natural to expect that more power would be used.
Again—
the only ones approaching the rift were the real Ho-yeol and the two shadows.
However, as they got closer, the doubts disappeared like snow melting.
“Wait a minute, everyone. Is that…?!”
Marcelo, the head of the Mage Tower, boasts a strong impression.
Kichi, the leader of the Shadow Mercenary Corps, known for fame or notoriety.
Because I was able to recognize the identity of the shadows soon.
-It’s a combination that makes your heart look magnificent. -Much
Haha Do you mean that 3 people are enough??
-Isn’t it actually an all-star?
The level or skills of the two have never been officially disclosed.
They have been since the days when Arcana was just a game.
They were the strongest people who had a reputation.
however.
– But wait a minute, what is that??
To the extent that it takes away one’s attention from them.
There was Ho-yeol emitting a tremendous presence.
The players who were watching the scene said in a mesmerized voice.
“…wasn’t kidding.”
“Looking at it roughly, it is incomparable to the previous one…
”
It was Hoyeol who was equipped with three more unique items.
Certainly, the level of equipment was higher than before.
But it wasn’t a rise to the point of admiration.
focus your attention
What made it reveal its overwhelming presence.
[Simmi: Middle]
It was all thanks to the improved simmi stat.
However, it was the effect of the [Aesthetic] stat that even the Mage Tower was unaware of.
attention from all over the world.
No matter how many eyes are watching.
I can’t know the truth, so I’m just admiring it.
In the midst of that, Hoyeol opened his mouth.
“Let’s start.”
Fluttering——
and at the same time fluttering the mantle of passion.
It was like flapping wings.
It’s like that.
Even being called the judge who came down from the sky is not inferior.
Again –
fear? scruple? concern?
A confident stride that doesn’t feel anything.
The moment Ho-yeol, Marcelo, and even Kichi enter the crack.
The players who were stunned by the figure also came to their senses.
“Then I’ll be quick!”
It was a famous scene even if it was just filmed.
With that thought, the players who tried to enter the rift were stopped.
“…!”
none other than the message.
It was information of a rift that made one aware of reality.
[Demon Castle of Hunting]
[Recommended Level: Lv.850]
[Crack Collapse: 23.0%]
“…”
A whopping 850 cracks at the appropriate level.
words that come to mind when
If you touch it, you die.
Or the saying that a shrimp’s back explodes in a whale fight.
‘No matter how hard it is, changing views and lives is a bit…’
Even while the players hesitated, time passed.
Ho-yeol’s goal is to overwhelm.
That I don’t even have much time to think.
“Wait a minute… Yes! Apply some buffs and take some deep breaths!”
they couldn’t know
*
“My pitiful life…”
Kichi muttered and looked up.
I had no choice but to be dragged out, but I hated this kind of thing.
Above all, like last time and this time.
Because the balance calculation didn’t match.
‘…I can’t help it. This is self-defense.’
Lee Ho-yeol You made me like this.
Yeah, looking at the situation…
‘Let’s even think about jumping out.’
But Kitsch’s impure thoughts were just thoughts.
It was because of the two men next to him.
Damn, the co-chiefs of the Mage Tower.
Marcelo said calmly.
“I don’t think it will take too long.”
Kitsch was shocked.
‘…is that the real thing to say while looking at the castle?’
what if you just say
What can you say?
Why, even if it’s only for himself, to stay attached to Yusra Kingdom.
Didn’t you spit out a lie that wasn’t even in your heart? However, I could tell because it was kitsch who was good at lying.
Marcelo’s words were absolutely sincere.
“It will be over before the tea cools down.”
…Of course, it was the same on the Hoyeol side.
No, one more bite.
To finish before the tea cools down.
Isn’t that a statement that considers the castle as inferior to any kind of sand castle?
Kitsch sighed quietly.
“Whoa—”
I made up words that didn’t even exist in order to cling to Yusura Kingdom… But
it wasn’t enough to see through the lie, so it was Ho-yeol who was using it instead.
Right now the man is wide-eyed beside him.
“You have to expect what to expect. in my arms.”
Kitsch had no choice but to give up his plan.
Instead, he turned his head the other way.
‘That’s why those little ones won’t be mine.’
If you cut off the head of the demon king or the executive, it’s all over, right?
The moment you think of the target.
Kichi’s eyes suddenly change.
The change in appearance was such that even Marcelo could notice it.
‘He’s an excellent assassin.’
Since he had that level of skill, he must have accompanied him.
Marcelo’s idea of kitsch ended there.
“!”
Demon King approaching.
At the same time, a roar hit my eardrums.
Koo Goo Goong—!
It was a sound coming from above.
Soon, it was a flying boat that appeared in the dark clouds.
Marcelo was not surprised.
I guessed because I heard the circumstances of Ho-yeol.
But it wasn’t kitsch.
“What is it? Is that…?”
The leader of the Shadow Mercenaries.
It was only natural that Kichi was well versed in rumors, legends, and information floating around the Arcana continent.
But I hadn’t heard of flying machines.
“How can something that big fly up to the sky?”
In the world of adventurers outside the Rift.
Although I’ve seen something similar called an airplane.
It was an object that emerged from the Arcana continent.
A calm voice came from such a kitsch.
“flying boat.”
“…flying boat?”
“As expected, it’s a combination of Dwarf technology.”
“…!”
Dwarf!
He didn’t know what a flying boat was, but he knew what kind of race Dwarves were.
A quest from the Shadow Mercenary Corps. It was thanks to the occasional request to inquire about equipment made by the Dwarves.
‘But how come you don’t show any signs of surprise? both?’
No, especially Lee Ho-yeol among the two men.
His reaction was like someone who had expected this situation.
‘…Anyway, that’s how it is.’
Kitsch was self-centered.
Because of the weakness.
That I’m overestimating him too much.
‘Unless I’m looking into the future.’
What is happening on the Arcana continent?
How can you know in this world?
However, Kichi was taken aback by Ho-yeol’s words.
“As I heard, you guys haven’t forgotten your past oaths.”
…as you heard?
What were you really expecting?
Anyway, what about the promises of the past?
what are you scared
Kichi had no choice but to keep an eye on Ho-yeol again.
Yes, even if you don’t know what it is.
‘It was good to fold something like a crap idea early….’
.
.
.
The concentration of Dwarven technology.
At the same time as witnessing the flying boat.
The quest window flickered.
two each.
[Class Quest: Extermination of Akkshan]
Annihilation of Akkshan and the demon hunters.
The last demon hunter.

●Confirm the oath with the dwarves. (Ongoing)
Crusade.
It seemed that the dwarves were also involved in the incident that led to Akkshan’s destruction.
Because there was news about Arcana Continent that I learned about through Hiel.
‘I was guessing.’
A dwarf who disappeared from the continent.
They appeared after the decisive battle weapon, the Kürnberg Machine Tower, was activated.
He led the flying boat and started hunting the demons of the Arcana continent.
I was able to guess through the news.
‘Like the Magic Tower, the Dwarves owe Akkshan a debt.’
I looked at the quest goal.
‘It’s not just a promise
.
I don’t know if I’m trying to protect it now.
Even if it was the demon king who stood in the way.
Proof of that appeared in the next quest window.
[Demon King Plauros vs Dwarf]
The Demon King and the Dwarf.
who wins?
Demon King and flying boat.
What symbols are left behind?
Everything depends on your judgment.
I will win the reward of victory according to my achievements.
-Join the faction and lead the war to victory. (In progress)
Participate on the side of Demon King Flauros. (Optional)
●Participate on the side of the dwarves. (Optional)
─Current Achievement: 0p
For the dwarves, flying boats were like magic towers.
That he risked the flying boat and engaged in battle with the demon king.
There can be no more convincing evidence than this.
“As I heard, you guys haven’t forgotten your past oaths.”
A gap of 10 years and several years.
I don’t know about Akshan’s demon hunters.
Because I didn’t get anything
Not to mention doubts, such things as sediment didn’t even exist in the first place.
I spoke shamelessly.
“I will no longer doubt your pride.”
Of course, the choice is over.
[Complete camp selection.]
[You have joined the Dwarves.]
[Demon Lord Floros is hostile to your faction.]
Presence felt in the Demon Castle.
Indeed, the momentum is different from the time of Dekarabia, isn’t it? It’s a sense of intimidation that wouldn’t be strange even if you fell into a state abnormality right away if you had half-hearted mental strength.
But no one is halfway here.
Let alone Marcelo and Kitsch.
Do I feel intimidated by the demons of Grand Fel of the world?
『Granfell Cloudy Arpheus Romeo’s pride ironically rises the most in front of the devil.』
Because it was absolutely impossible.
Marcelo and Kitsch.
And I went straight into battle.
As emphasized, what was needed was a landslide victory.
I had no intention of exchanging workshops with me.
Wasn’t that why you weren’t fully prepared?
I recalled the effects of the current buff being applied.
[The power of all magic is slightly increased for 1 hour.]
[Magical regeneration is slightly increased for 3 hours.]
[Magic regeneration is greatly increased for 30 minutes.]…
Medicine teeth.
The non-herb that is good means that you have taken enough non-herb to fill your stomach with water.
On top of that, even the effects of the magical tools and equipment of the Mage Tower that you picked and chose.
[Sign of Tornado]
[Grade: Unique] [
Limit: Lv
. – Cooldown: 24 hours]
[Masterpiece – Lightning-struck Twig Wand]
[Grade: Unique
]
[Limit: Lv. .]
[Luxury – White elytra]
[Rating: Unique]
[Limit: Lv .
The number of spells that can be stored is proportional to the color of the elytra, and magic consumption is reduced by 30% when manifesting the stored magic. – Currently stored number of attribute magic: 100]
As you can see from the effect of the item.
I was thinking of hitting a hundred attribute magic.
If you think about it again, it’s a really ignorant method.
‘Even if the search is omitted due to the effect of the elytra…’
The process from interference to manifestation cannot be omitted.
It was a use that most wizards would not even attempt.
It’s a trick that can be used thanks to Grandfel’s talent.
But this is my strength and my best.
Flutter—
at the same time as raising his mana.
White elytra flapping like wings.
I remembered the stored magic of the elytra.
Because it is to call the stored magic.
Skip the search process.
However, during the interference process, he did not forget to utilize the [Aesthetic] stat.
…is this a true story?
Mana drains away at a terrifying speed.
But don’t be shaken.
Even if that’s not enough.
[The skill ‘Natural Relations’ is activated.]
You can’t even show your staggering figure in front of the devil.
That means that I am a human being called Grandfel.
Marcelo, noticing my desperate apparition, exclaimed.
“I will open the way.”
A swift expression incomparable to my tricks.
The 10,000 Demon Kings who were deleted as if evaporating.
The one who appeared in the middle was Ethio, the commander of the demon corps.
“!!!”
However, the boy immediately fell to his knees.
“Seriously, it’s my fault!”
Sua Aak ─
Kichi’s dagger was due to his legs.
Beyond the fallen Ethio.
Finally, the Demon King Flauros was seen.
I didn’t hesitate.
[‘Ceremonial robe stained with evil’ has been selected as the sacrifice.]
[The skill ‘Exorcism’ is activated.]
[Invite the demon king Flauros to the ‘ritual’.]
.
.
.
Less-!
Rocking flying boat Iron Castle.
“Damn it. All in all, thunder and lightning.”
Iron Castle’s only weakness is bad weather.
It was because even the aggregate of great technology could not go against the power of nature.
There was no time like this now with the demon king in front. Is it because of the constant steering wheel?
“done. You got out!”
The Iron Castle was able to get out of the thunderstorm.
In the field of view of those dwarves, the whole view of the castle was visible.
“…Now wait. What is going on down there?”
To be precise, the demon castle that is collapsing.
The sight is truly miserable.
It’s not a devil, but an existence that can drive the demon lord.
“no way…?”
At least the Dwarves who had made an oath in the past knew.
“Demon hunter! Found survivors of Akkshan!!”
