154. Episode 154
The red-tinted sky split apart.
The sight of the clouds parting was as cruel as a wound opening.
A red liquid like blood gushed out from the gaping wound.
It fell to the floor with a thud and regained its original shape, emitting an eerie aura.
Satyros.
The upper body was human-shaped, the lower body was like a goat’s, and there were sturdy horns extending from the top of the head, while the red pupils were slit horizontally.
Pan is one of the true gods of Olympus, but his current appearance makes him seem more like a demon than a god.
“I finally figured out that I’m the owner of this place!”
“Because you’re the only constellation that would do such crazy things.”
“Kuuuuu, that’s right! All the other constellations are just sitting in the corner of the room. If it weren’t for me, Pan… …!”
“I guess I misunderstood. It wasn’t a compliment. Not only does he look like that, but his intelligence is also beastly.”
“Kyaaaaah! This guy!”
He stomped the ground with his thick hooves.
Each time he did this, the floor would cave in, and vibrations would spread through the earth. The space itself seemed to shake according to his feelings.
“You still haven’t come to your senses even after all this has happened!”
“You should know that if you interfere with the tower to this extent, it will be difficult to return to your constellation seat, right?”
“Kuuuuu, what do you think of this body? I am the son of Zeus, the king of Olympus.”
“The one who threw you in jail?”
“Shut up! If I kill you and rectify your dishonor, then my father will look upon me again!”
Pan’s eyes were filled with madness.
Rather than reflecting on his actions while in prison, he seems to have been deceiving himself and rationalizing his actions.
It got so bad that I made that mistake and ended up in this situation.
“So die for me. Spew out all the divinity you have taken from me!”
“Meeeeeee-!”
At the sound of Pan’s shout, the stopped livestock rushed in again.
I thought the number of livestock was gradually decreasing, but with the appearance of the board, hundreds of new livestock were created.
‘Is this the sanctuary of the board?’
It seemed that this was not the 15th floor, but a sanctuary created by the board.
A sanctuary is a place with optimal conditions for the constellations to exert their power.
It seems like he’s been preparing his revenge quite thoroughly for this moment while in prison.
‘At that time, I should reflect on myself a bit.’
Phew!
A goat that came right up to my nose let out a loud cry and burst into pieces.
Once again, a defensive barrier was deployed to block them, but with the appearance of the board, there was a change in the livestock’s attacks.
Snap!
A cow rammed the fence with its blunt horns.
In addition to the simple body-throwing and explosive attack, a direct attack pattern that directly strikes the head has been added.
The shield was able to withstand wide-ranged explosions well, but it had trouble blocking physical attacks that focused on a single point.
Seun put away his shield, kept his distance, and prepared a new spell.
– The casting speed of ‘Inferno’ increases depending on the magic of the tower.
– The power of ‘Inferno’ is strengthened according to the Black Tower’s magic.
In order to manifest magic, something called casting time is basically necessary.
The stronger the magic, the longer the casting time, so there is bound to be a moment of gap while preparing the magic.
But in Seun’s magic, such a thing no longer existed. No, it did exist, but the time it took was extremely short.
This is the new circle you get by modifying the third circle through the swamp master.
It was the power of the Purple Circle and the power of the Mystery of the Tower.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
“Moooooo-”
Wasn’t it said that the best defense is a good offense?
A hot flame covered the meadow.
No matter how well-mannered the livestock are, they are nothing more than beasts in broad daylight in front of the blazing flames.
The brown grass began to burn, expanding its range.
Naturally, the livestock also stopped attacking Seun.
That moment…….
“Kuuuuuu, you’ve grown a lot in the meantime!”
Kang!!
The plate flew through the flames and swung its thick hooves.
Since my vision was blocked by the flames, I would have been fatally hit if I hadn’t instinctively pulled out my sword.
Even though he blocked it in a hurry, he was unable to properly use his internal energy and Seun was pushed back significantly.
Tremendous power.
If it had been a normal weapon, not a Durangdal, it would have quickly worn out and broken.
“Why don’t you try and make a fuss! That way you can have the fun of trampling on others! Keuhahahaha!”
Kang, Kang!
By utilizing the secrets of Tai Chi, he releases the power stored in his hooves and twists his body as much as possible with his knee kick to dodge the attack.
But there seemed to be no room for a counterattack.
It’s an urgent situation where just avoiding it is enough.
Even if it is a constellation of low rank, and even if it has fallen further in rank due to Seun and has been imprisoned in Olympus, the opponent is still a constellation of Olympus.
Even though he had been forced to descend to the floor without permission, his strength had been further diminished, but even so, he was not an enemy that Se-Woon could deal with in his current state.
“Kuhahahaha! That’s right, this is it. Without the help of the demons, you would be just like this! You’re just a mere human!”
– The constellation, ‘### ## ###’ spits out #### to ### # #.
– The constellation, ‘### ## ###’ requests ### of ### for ### ##.
– The constellation, ‘### ## ###’ takes out the ## of the ##.
A message filled with noise appeared faintly before my eyes, but it seemed impossible to get help from the constellations.
For now, we have no choice but to somehow overcome the situation with our own strength.
and…….
“I think you’re mistaken about something.”
“what?”
– The Treasure Trove of Greed has been opened.
[The sword that cut down the fire dragon, Aarondight]
– It is said that Lancelot, the knight of the Round Table, used this sword to cut down a fire dragon to save the princess.
Crunch.
“Oh, crazy! This is!”
At the moment when the moon suddenly flashed red, Se-woon took advantage of the momentary opening created by the flustered Pan and swung his sword.
It wasn’t a critical hit, but it did put a thin dent in the bastard’s horn.
It was a blow from Durandal imbued with the power of Aarondight, and yet it only had such a scratch.
I was sick of that ridiculous defense, but Seun’s attacks didn’t end there.
Kwarrrrrr!
“Khaak!”
Hot flames shot out from tiny scratches on the horns of the plate.
The sword that slew the Fire Dragon, Arondite. As its name suggests, Arondite contained the power of the Fire Dragon it had slain in the past.
Pan, who had not expected this attack at all, rolled around on the ground with his eyes covered by the heat emanating from the horns.
The livestock that were panicking around threw themselves to put out the fire on the plate, but the flames did not go out easily.
Then, as if a few cattle were making a last-ditch effort, they lifted one leg.
Chiiik-
It extinguished the flames by spraying yellow water between its legs.
“That’s ridiculous! Even if you’re a demon, your power won’t be able to affect this place!”
It was natural that Pan did not expect this attack.
This is the sanctuary of the board. It is a space where it is difficult to even interfere with the system, so the powers that the constellations have given to the players cannot be drawn upon either.
So in this situation, Seun’s unleashing of the power of greed was an attack that Pan had never expected.
“I told you, it was a mistake.”
“You’re saying that’s your power? That can’t be true! A mere human! And a low-level human like this one can wield power!”
“Believe it or not, it’s up to you… … .”
– The first skill of the Blood Wolf Sword Technique, Blood Wolf Fang, is strengthened through internal energy.
– According to the secret of Jahashin Gong, heat is added to the martial arts.
Now that the board is in a state of confusion, this is your chance.
Se-Woon immediately rushed forward to deliver a follow-up attack.
According to the secret of Jahashin Gong, the power of Arondite in Durandal emitted even hotter heat.
“My power is real.”
Kaang!
Even though I was confused, it seems like a constellation is a constellation.
Pan raised his hoof in a hurry to block Seun’s attack.
This time too, only a small scratch could be made, but in the meantime, a hot flame rose up again.
“Do you think I’ll get hit twice?”
Phew!
He dug his split hooves into the ground.
No matter how much of Arondite’s flame it was, it could not breathe fire in that state.
“I was going to play with you until you were so scared that I killed you, but I couldn’t just sit by and watch you get so cocky!”
– The board manifests the power of fear.
– All living things in the sanctuary except the board are gripped by fear!
The body of the plate grew rapidly.
In an instant, it transformed into a giant over 5 meters tall, its muscles became stronger and its hooves became thicker. Its horns became sharp and curved, and its dark brown fur grew out in abundance.
A normal player would have fallen to their knees in fear at the sight of that sight, but Seun was different.
– The stigmata engulf the horror of the board.
– The overwhelming fear is fed and the Blood Wolf’s nickname is strengthened.
For Se-un, who had awakened the power of fear just like Pan, fear was no longer an attack.
Rather, because of its characteristic of swallowing fear, it ended up providing strength to Seun.
As Se-un’s stigmata began to glow red, Pan grew even more angry and his eyes twitched.
“How dare you corrupt my divinity into such a filthy form!”
The board rushed in.
As the hooves hit the ground, the earth bursts apart as if a bomb had exploded.
As the plate ran forward with its horns outstretched, the air could not stand it and was pushed back, creating an ominous crashing sound.
Even Seun can’t block such an attack.
Even if you use the Taegeuk sword’s magic, there is a limit to how much power you can channel, and even if you use the Nichugong, it is not an attack that can be avoided.
then?
You just need to get to a level where you can avoid that attack.
– The stigmata react to the tale of the Blood Wolf Legend.
– The second ability of the stigmata, ‘Frenzy’, awakens.
Boom!
Using the power of madness, he pushed his strength to the limit.
However, it wasn’t like I was at a level where I could properly deal with the board. I could barely withstand the bastard’s attacks.
Even though he was using Mammon’s treasure, this was Seun’s limit.
No matter how low of a status one may be in and how he was forced to descend to the lower realms, a constellation is still a constellation.
He used his magic to the point where the circle overheated, and his martial arts skills until his danjeon was on the verge of bursting.
The light of the stigmata quickly faded away as the divinity was pushed to its limit.
‘If only I could use the power of jealousy… …!’
Unlike the powers of greed and gluttony that he had gained through chance before his return, the power of jealousy was a power he was using in this life by borrowing the power of Leviathan.
In this place where the intervention of the constellations was impossible, it was impossible to borrow the power of jealousy.
The power of gluttony was not a power that could be used in this situation in the first place.
“Kuhahahaha! No matter how great you are, can you stand against God?”
– The constellation, ‘### ## ###’ gives ### to the ## that was built.
– The constellation, ‘### ## ###’ requests the ## of the ## to the ## of the ##.
– The constellation, ‘Head# ## #Devil’ ##s causality.
My whole body feels hot.
Circles, dantians, and stigmata were now at their limits.
I tried to use the power of greed to find an opening, but no matter how long I continued the standoff, I couldn’t see any opening.
The attack didn’t work, and even if you blocked the attack, the wounds accumulated. But, you didn’t give up.
The tower’s system is strict with rules and regulations.
We will not sit idly by and watch as someone breaks the system and interferes with the floors like that.
I believed that if we just bought time for the system to cope, we would be able to overcome this situation.
“Kuhahahahaha! It’s over now! This body will trample on you and enter the arms of the Father, and ascend to the realm of the Lord!”
A brown aura blazed like flames from the horns of the plate.
It walked on all fours like an animal, patting the ground with its hind legs and snorting.
The rush continues.
The rush seemed to tear space apart.
Space distorted around the board, ignoring the concepts of time and space and approaching Seun’s nose.
He pulled up all his strength and focused it on his weapon.
I can’t give up like this. I have to survive and tear that damn goat to pieces.
Just before the giant mountain goat’s horns collided with Seun’s body, leaving behind a brown trail.
– #The #Resource approves of the ## of the ‘head ## crow’.
– The constellation, ‘The Crow with its Head Bowed’ descends.
Rrrrrrr!
Kwak!
“Ugh! What is this!”
Pan’s body fell to the floor, bound by black chains rising from the floor.
“You idiot who doesn’t even know what you’re doing dares to touch ‘what’s mine’. Are you ready for punishment?”
A black-haired woman flapped her giant crow’s wings and looked down at the board with a contemptuous look.
