Episode 224
224. The decisive battle
[The location of the target ‘Uriel’ has been discovered.]
[It is currently 601m away.]
Ryumin, who was swimming in the sky with his black wings flapping, checked the remaining distance.
‘It’s getting closer.’
Finding an angel is not difficult because you have tracking skills.
However, I had no idea that an hour had passed and I was still in the Forest of Demonic Beasts.
‘I guess you spent some time calling for reinforcements?’
I was curious.
How many reinforcements were brought in while he was away?
‘I hope there are more than 99 people.’
With my heart pounding, I turned on my surroundings search skill.
There were many red dots spread throughout the Forest of Demonic Beasts.
‘this… … ‘It’s beyond your expectations, isn’t it?’
When I counted the number of people, it was well over 100.
A number close to 200.
It’s not an illusion.
As we got within 100m, it became even clearer.
[There are 202 enemies in a 100m radius.]
[All stats increase by 100% due to the rune effect of 100 Per Day.]
‘Are you sure. ‘Excluding the two archangels, 200 people were called.’
It looks like he called in as many reinforcements as possible to deal with him, but it actually worked out well.
‘Is this enough to fill the stack once more even after using the devil’s blessing?’
Ryumin, trying hard to hold back the laughter that was about to escape, slowly came down to the ground.
In the devastated forest, Raguel and Uriel were quietly glaring at him.
‘As expected, they knew I was coming. That’s why we prepared this surprise event.’
He was hiding in a tree to prepare for a surprise attack, but Ryumin, who had a sense of presence, could not have known.
‘Is it too obvious? There’s no need to read minds for this.’
While the Archangels in front of them are attracting attention, they are planning to use 200 troops to make a surprise attack.
I didn’t even know that it had already been discovered.
‘You don’t even know that I have presence detection?’
Anyway, it was good.
Because we have collected more offerings than expected.
‘I want to give you a surprise, so I have to at least pretend to be surprised.’
Pretending not to notice the gaze around him, Ryumin approached the archangels.
“you. “Are you still here?”
[Because some damn bug ripped off its wings.]
“If you don’t have wings, you can’t even walk? “It’s pathetic.”
Raguel’s expression crumpled.
I burst out laughing when I saw the guy shaken by an insignificant provocation.
‘Oh my. Are you holding back your anger? ‘I’m holding back because of the operation, right?’
Raguel sighed and spoke with the intention of attracting attention.
[Then why did you run away? I saw earlier that you threw it away without even looking back. Were you really scared?]
“It’s only the two of us, but it’s scary.”
[You didn’t go on a rampage because you couldn’t use the ability to turn black?]
“Oh, this?”
Ryu Min immediately wrote the Death God Painting.
[…] … !]
Uriel and Raguel’s eyes widen as if they didn’t know how to write so quickly.
“why? surprised? “Is the cooldown already back?”
[…] … .]
“Why would I come back after running away? “She came back because she was confident.”
As we started walking as if we were about to start a battle, Uriel shouted in an urgent voice.
[Hit!]
At that signal, 200 troops hiding in the forest appeared all at once.
[Wow!]
The 5th level battle angels each hold their own weapons and rush towards the black target.
The archangels did not just sit by and watch.
[I waited for you to change like that! Hehehe, I’ll kill you!]
Raguel revealed his evil intentions and rushed in with his subordinates.
Like a wizard, Uriel prepared a spell to subdue Ryumin from behind.
Even in a situation where all the angels were rushing to kill him, Ryumin still had a relaxed attitude.
‘Would you like to show off your skills a little?’
The moment I made up my mind, Ryu Min’s appearance disappeared like a ghost.
[uh?]
The angels who had lost their goal suddenly looked confused.
The scroll of light prepared by Uriel also swept through the air and disappeared.
[Where did this person go?]
Raguel and Uriel both looked around in confusion.
Even in the eyes of the archangel, Ryumin is not visible.
‘It seems even archangels can’t see through invisibility. Or is it because of the stealth rune that erases even traces of presence?’
Ryumin, who received good information, moved like the wind.
Sigh-! Ttuk-!
The sounds of something breaking and falling were heard one after another.
When I looked at the source of the sound, I saw that the angels were dead with their necks turned.
[Oh, Archangel! Look here, wow!]
Ryumin turned his head in an instant and immediately grabbed the other angel’s head.
Pop! dump-
[Number of angels killed: 21/100]
Ryumin, who had already killed more than 20 people, was quickly adding up to his number.
[Woah, here it is! Humans are here!]
A soldier shouted, but you know it even if you don’t say it.
Both Uriel and Raguel were looking at their fallen men with shocked faces.
‘Wow, crazy. ‘What speed is that?’
‘It’s hard to follow with your eyes, isn’t it?’
Ryumin’s movements were as fast as a beam of light.
By the time I thought I had found him, he had already broken his neck and left.
So much so that I can only see an afterimage.
The eyes of those watching have no time to rest.
[Lord, kill me! Kill him!]
Despite Raguel’s command, the battle angels had no intention of moving.
How do you kill an enemy you can’t follow with your eyes?
As much as I tried to cut it with a knife, it only left an afterimage.
I couldn’t keep up with Ryumin’s movements.
Flutter- flutter- flutter-!
[Holy shit… … !]
As the damage continued to increase, Raguel and Uriel became anxious.
The forest was soon filled with the broken-necked corpses of soldiers.
[Stop it! Stop it! Everyone rush in!]
Is it because I’m frustrated at being left helpless?
The quiet Uriel shouted irritably, but there was no answer.
‘Damn it. Even with this, my order… … .’
No matter how many tricks you have, there is no spell that can slow you down to that level.
It will avoid most spells.
‘Can not help it. ‘There is no choice but to burn this entire area down.’
It must be prevented before the damage increases further.
With that in mind, Uriel raised the dagger high in the sky and chanted a spell.
Brilliant light gathered at the tip of the dagger.
[Ooh, Uriel?]
Raguel, who figured out the identity of the spell, looked even more embarrassed than before.
[Are you really going to use that spell? If we do something wrong, our soldiers… … .]
[There is no way! Can you stop that crazy monster? huh?]
Raguel, speechless, pursed his lips.
Even in his own eyes, the black scythe was a monster.
It is difficult to follow the black shape with the eyes.
He was showing such transcendental speed that it was impossible to say he was the same person as he was an hour ago.
In a situation like that, you stop it yourself?
Raguel quietly scolded.
‘It’s impossible.’
Even his superior, Uriel, is sticking his tongue out, so there is no way he can stop it.
[Soldiers are dying even at this moment. This is the only way.]
[but… … .]
[Don’t tell me any more. My order is being delayed because of you. Tsk.]
[sorry.]
Uriel clicked his tongue and then chanted a spell.
‘It’s already an urgent situation, but if we delay any longer, he’ll find out.’
But Uriel didn’t know.
Even in the midst of frantic movement, Ryumin’s eyes did not lose sight of the archangels.
So, I already knew what kind of order it was.
‘He plans to completely blow up a 100m radius with his men.’
Ryumin, who realized that a large-scale, wide-area technology was being prepared, looked at the message.
[Number of angels killed: 100/100]
[The conditions for using the Devil’s Blessing have been met.]
[You can use it when you want by memorizing the ‘Devil’s Blessing’ starter word.]
Finally, there were 100 people and the conditions were met.
[There are 102 enemies in a 100m radius.]
[All stats increase by 100% due to the rune effect of 100 Per Day.]
In addition, there are even 100 runes per day.
‘It’s time.’
As soon as he confirmed that he was in the best condition with all the stats that could be increased, Ryumin applied a buff to himself.
[You are under the devil’s blessing.]
[The following effects are applied based on the total current stats (363,417).]
[When defeating an angel, gold equal to 1 times the standard value (363,417) is obtained. Depending on the level of the angel, it increases up to 1,000 times (363,417,000)]
[When defeating an angel, you gain stat points equivalent to 0.01% (36) of the standard value. Depending on the level of the angel, it increases up to 10% (36,341).]
[When an angel is defeated, the reputation of the devil camp increases slightly.]
[The buff lasts until the end of the round.]
The total stats are about 360,000.
That means an average of 90,000 per stat.
It was a crazy stat, but there was no one to be amazed about.
If we don’t stop Uriel right away, the precious angels will disappear.
‘The distance is too far. then… … .’
Duwoong-
When Night of Death was cast, the entire area turned pitch black.
The 100 fifth-grade angels and two archangels were taken aback, but that was only for a moment.
[Hmph, I’m thinking of canceling the spell with artificial darkness, but it’s no use. There is no darkness anywhere that can extinguish the light of heaven.]
As Raguel explained, the light gathered in the dagger was still emitting light.
Eventually, as if the order was complete, a faint smile appeared on Uriel’s lips.
[Preparations are complete, Raguel. Prepare for the storm.]
Just as Uriel was about to lower the dagger he was holding to cast [Heavenly Wrath], a storm of light and flame.
A flash of light flashed in the darkness.
Also with red eyes.
Ku-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-!
The Moonlight Island launched by Ryumin destroyed 30 5th rank angels.
Additionally, one of Uriel’s arms.
[Ugh… … .]
It was natural that the spell I had memorized was canceled when my arm flew off.
Uriel glared into the darkness where a flash of light flew.
‘I can’t believe that that bug bastard had such strong skills… … .’
It was a mistake to think that it was an easy opponent and not research the Shinigami’s skills.
Is that why?
Uriel and Raguel were taken aback by the fact that Ryumin’s attack had not yet ended.
Kku-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-!
[Number of angels killed: 67/100]
Kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwak!
[Number of angels killed: 100/100]
[The conditions for using the Devil’s Blessing have been met.]
[You can use it when you want by memorizing the ‘Devil’s Blessing’ starter word.]
In just over 6 seconds, 100 angels disappeared without a trace.
It was natural that my body would be crushed and burned just by being touched by the powerful waves of moonlight.
[No way.]
Was it shocking that all of his men died in three shots on Moonlight Island?
Raguel looked around the devastated forest with disbelief.
[Uh, where did you go? Don’t hide, come out, soldiers!]
However, Raguel did not have time to find soldiers.
Because there were still two rooms left on Moonlight Island.
The Moonlight Island, which had been thrown astray on purpose, cut off one of Raguel’s legs.
[Keuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu!]
He fell to the floor and complained of pain, but it wasn’t over yet.
Ku-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-!
The moonlight island that followed passed by exquisitely, burning one of Raguel’s cheeks.
[Kihyaaaaaa! My, my face! My face!]
Ryumin approached the glowing Raguel.
“It’s worse than a bug.”
Raguel, who was looking venomously with his bone-baring face, suddenly rushed at me.
[This bastard—boo!]
The scythe pierced Raguel’s heart and escaped.
dump-
Leaving behind the fallen archangel, Ryumin walked towards Uriel.
In a panic, he chants a spell with one arm.
thud-!
A prison of light fell from the sky and bound Ryumin as he walked.
[Good! Got it… … .]
Pak-!
With one swing, the prison shattered.
Uriel, with a straight face, calmly cast the next spell.
Whirring!
A scroll of light appeared in the air and strangled Ryumin.
No sooner had Uriel smiled in conversion.
Wow-
It was torn apart with force.
Even if I tried to throw a storm of light or an explosive dagger, Ryumin didn’t get even the slightest scratch.
No matter what I did, I couldn’t slow down the approaching reaper’s steps.
chuck-
Ryumin’s steps stopped only when he was within arm’s reach.
[Yes, your guy… … Now I understand. You were hiding your power.]
“Because we need soldiers.”
[what? So are you saying that I induced the soldiers to come?]
“Well, that’s right. “I never thought I’d get this many calls.”
Thanks to this, we were able to fill the space for another 100 people and prepare blessings for the next time.
“Thank you for that.”
Did he sense that he was going to kill himself after saying that?
Instead of begging for his life, Uriel gritted his teeth and spoke.
[…] … If you kill me, you will regret it. The people above me will not leave you alone.]
“Isn’t that the same even if I don’t kill you?”
[…] … .]
“If you want to live, be honest and ask for your life.”
[You have no intention of saving me.]
“I know very well.”
Deep!
After quickly stabbing his heart, Uriel’s body tilted.
It was a meaningless death without even being able to see when he moved.
