Chapter 672
Raon climbed the black stairs, feeling the powerful sound coming from the floor below.
‘I think we can win with those two.’
Although Saint Olga was only hiding it, she had already surpassed the power of the priest who had grown up, and Rimer’s swordsmanship was at a level where he could easily overwhelm Daniev, the commander of the Knights of the Guard.
In addition, Pirn and Daniev had hesitation and guilt in their hearts, so the picture of Olga and Rimmer being defeated was not drawn at all.
-The scent of Magi is getting stronger.
Lars looked up at the ceiling made of demonic energy and narrowed his eyes.
-It means we’re almost there.
‘okay.’
Raon calmly nodded. As Ras said, the stench of demonic energy is getting worse. It was clear that King Baurn, who had made a contract with the demons, was right above him.
‘What is the level of military power of the demons that have made a contract with the king?’
-Weak.
Lars answered without the slightest hesitation.
-If the king lifts his finger, he will explode and die.
The guy shook his head, saying that the word force itself was a waste.
“Ugh… .”
Raon patted Lars’ cotton candy head and sighed.
‘Not at your level, but at my level.’
Although he doesn’t want to admit it, Ras’s strength is outstanding even among transcendents.
It was enough to put the same transcendental Demon Lord of the Flames into a dying state with a single blow, so saying that this guy was weak was of no use as a reference.
-It won’t be easy to win at your level.
Lars looked down at Raon and tilted his chin.
-If you make a little mistake, your head will be blown off right away.
The guy laughed and said it was pathetic.
‘is it.’
The level of demonic energy revealed by King Baurn was very high, so it was natural that the demons were strong.
However, I wasn’t particularly worried. According to my thoughts, it would be much easier to deal with demons than King Baurn.
-There is no need to worry. That thing up there is not a demon yet, but that idiot king.
Lars seemed to be mistaken and waved his fat hand, telling me not to worry.
‘know. Still, you never know.’
Raon grinned and went up the strange stairs that looked like veins were lined up.
As I climbed up to the last floor made of demonic energy, an unexpected sight caught my eye.
Gooooooo!
A black cocoon made of magical energy twisted like a thin thread was floating in the air, and four high-ranking priests were standing in the four directions, north, south, east, west, and pouring divine power into the cocoon.
It was not just the energy of the priests, but the divine power and demonic energy that spread throughout this kingdom was seeping into the cocoon.
‘Baurn is in there.’
I can feel Baurn’s presence inside the black cocoon, beating like a living heart. He seemed to be building up strength within himself.
“W-what!”
“Why is the dragon slayer here?”
“Sir, could it be that Priest Pirn and Sir Daniev were the victims!”
The high-ranking priests trembled their lips as if they could not believe that Raon was here.
“You’re screwed.”
Raon uttered a swear word that Saint Olga often used and approached the magic cocoon where Baurn was hiding.
“Now, wait!”
“Stop!”
“If we attack now, the cocoon may burst! Then this kingdom itself will fly away… .”
“That’s none of your concern.”
I went forward without hesitation because I could handle even if a demon, not a Baurn, came out of that cocoon.
Crunch!
Raon placed his hand on the blade of the Jecheon Sword. The moment the will to cut was established, the blade of the Jecheon Sword became a Shinigami’s scythe and fell towards the necks of the priests.
“Stop it!”
“Keuuuuuuu!”
Although the priests standing in the north and east were embarrassed, they erected shields with magical energy pushed into them.
Sigh!
However, Manhwagong’s flame-filled blade shattered the demonic wall and cut off the priests’ throats.
“Ugh… .”
“What… .”
The two priests fell down with their eyes wide open, as if they didn’t know that the shield made of demonic energy could be split so easily.
“Oh, don’t come!”
“It’s really dangerous! “If it goes too far, everyone will die!”
The high-ranking priests standing to the south and west waved their hands wildly.
“You can say things like that after making the kingdom like this.”
Raon sneered and pointed his sword at the two priests.
“Hit!”
“Kaaaa!”
The priests realized that there was no communication and started attacking rather than defending.
The condensed magic energy shot out from the two priests’ hands, sharpened like a spear knife.
The magic blades flew like a rain of arrows, but Raon had already left the spot.
Boom!
He roughly pushed the ground with the Taehwabo and reached behind the priests.
“Back, back!”
“Huh!”
The priests sensed Raon’s presence and turned around, but it was too late.
Sigh!
A silver-white blade, covered in frost, grazed the necks of the perverts.
“uh… .”
“Keuuuuu… .”
The solid red lines sprouting from the priests’ necks grew thicker and they vomited red blood.
Grumble!
But it wasn’t over. The priests’ bodies were regenerating even when their heads had been torn off, as if they had already been eaten by demonic energy.
‘This level of regenerative power… .’
Perhaps because they received the power of Baurn, who had made a direct contract with the demons, the stench of demon energy that permeated the priests was also terrible.
‘Still, it doesn’t mean anything.’
Raon plunged the Jecheon Sword into the floor and brought out Manhwagong’s flames to the extreme.
Kuwaaaa!
Light golden flames erupted from the sword-bladed helmet, obliterating all the pieces of the priests’ bodies and demonic energies.
All that was left was pitch black smoke and the magic cocoon still floating in the air.
Tsk.
Raon stepped on the steel frame of the bare tower and approached the magical cocoon that was pulsating more and more vigorously.
He struck the center of the cocoon with the Jecheon Sword engulfed in Manhwagong’s flames.
Oh my gosh!
The black cocoon crumbled like an egg shell, and the inside became deeply hollowed out.
King Baurn had his arms and legs curled and his eyes closed like a child in his mother’s womb.
When Raon was about to raise the Jecheon Sword that had been lowered and strike him, King Baurun’s eyelids lifted.
Coo!
Black eyes with a darkness deeper than that of demonic energy flashed.
“you… .”
“Are you here to bless Jim’s new birth?”
The darkness filled in along with the innocent smile that bloomed at the corner of King Baurn’s lips.
Kuwaaaa!
* * *
Kiaaa!
A monster with the head of a lion and the body of a bull rushes in, crushing the floor.
“Hmph!”
Hoppen did not back down. Instead, he jumped forward and struck down his white-flaming sword.
Sigh!
The blade of divine power pushed away the demon energy and split the monster’s body.
Kiyi.
The demon beast did not die even though its body was torn in half, and stuck out its sharp teeth.
Whoa whoa!
When Hoppen crushed the head with his sword, the demon beast melted into scum.
“There are five more inside! “Take care of everyone before they run away!”
When he pointed to the inside of the alley, the priests and paladins waiting behind ran in and purified the small monsters inside.
“Whoa… .”
Hoppen walked out onto the main street, wiping the sweat from his forehead.
‘I’m exhausted.’
I took out most of the monsters using the Paladin emblem I received from Kinnear, but there were so many of them that I was so exhausted that I didn’t even have the energy to stand.
However, there was no time to sit down and rest. Because there was still a mountain of work to do.
‘The most dangerous thing now is… .’
Gwangpungdae.
I was most worried about the Gwangpungdae, which would have to protect Kinnear and fight against the demons.
Since all the large-scale monsters were taken care of, I left the cleanup to my deputy and ran to where the spire was.
As soon as I arrived there, what caught my eye was the wind created by the Gwangpungdae.
Quaaaaa!
The blade of the blue wind cut through the enormous demon energy and tore the demon’s body to pieces mercilessly. The demons disappeared without leaving even a single piece of demon energy behind.
“her… .”
Hopen was in vain as he looked at the back of the storm band that had erased the demons.
‘I can’t believe I really won…’ .’
Demons have a tendency to weigh down human souls.
I couldn’t believe that prosecutors, who should still be called young people, broke the competition and defeated the demons.
The most surprising thing is that no one died. There were some serious injuries, but no one was mortally wounded.
“… … .”
The Gwangpungdae did not completely relax even after defeating the demons. Only after confirming that the magic energy had completely disappeared did they sit down one by one.
‘It’s so different… .’
I don’t know what kind of training and combat I went through to have that kind of strength and mental strength. Rather than envy, I felt a sense of awe.
“hmm… .”
Hoppen raised his eyes and followed Gwangpungdae’s gaze as he looked up at the spire where Raon would be.
‘That’s the only place left now.’
Now that the demons and monsters have been dealt with, all that remains are the Pirn priest in that tower, Sir Daniev, and my father.
‘please… .’
It was time to put our hands together and pray that this would end without anyone dying anymore.
Couuuuuuuuuuck!
spire. No, the demonic energy surrounding the tower surged out and covered the sky, along with a huge shock wave that seemed to distort the entire kingdom.
A man with two pairs of wings spread out appeared above the dark night sky, which could not be described as pitch black.
He was a handsome man with a well-toned body without any flab, white skin like a child, and a sharp nose and jawline with tight corners.
He was wearing a black crown on top of his head, and a haze-like thing was burning around him due to his demonic energy.
“S-No way… .”
Hoppen’s chin trembled as he looked at the man with a sly smile.
“father?”
Resembles. That young man’s face was 20 years ago. No, he looked exactly like the portrait of his father painted long before he was born.
Aside from everything else, the black crown he was wearing was of the same shape as the white royal crown, a national treasure of Super and a symbol of the king. I couldn’t recognize it.
“Ugh… .”
Hofen felt a chill at the sight of Baurn curling up the corners of his mouth as he looked out over the entire kingdom.
My father, who touched the taboo, became a monster devoured by demonic energy. What I sensed from him was not kindness and holiness, but only stinking demonic energy and evil.
However, the terrible demonic energy blooming from him did not descend to the earth.
Hwaaaaa!
Raon’s flames at the top of the tower were burning up all the demonic energy.
‘please… .’
Hoppen looked at Raon and put his hands together. He fell to his knees, chewing his lip.
‘Please stop my father!’
* * *
“You’re free.”
Baurn spread his arms and took a deep breath. The magical energy flowing from his breath added saturation to the black sky.
“I feel like I can do anything.”
“Are you rejuvenated?”
Raon lightly turned his neck as he looked at Baurn floating in the sky.
Perhaps due to the influence of accepting demonic energy, Baurn’s appearance and body became as strong as if he were in his 20s.
However, his blue hair, eyes, and white crown on his head were stained black. He seemed to be looking at a completely different person.
Of course, the biggest change is Magi. It was as if the divine power that had spread throughout the kingdom had turned into demonic energy, and a magnitude of demonic energy beyond imagination could be felt from him.
‘I don’t think we can win with the amount of Aurors.’
I thought he had more auras than a warrior or wizard of the same class, but it was incomparable to the magic that Baurn possessed.
“Raon Sieghardt.”
Baurn looked down and smoothed his chin. Even though he changed like that, his habits didn’t seem to change.
“Jim realized what a true king is.”
As he said that, he pointed to the black crown.
-load? How dare that thing!
Lars shook his fist and shouted that he didn’t like it.
“You’ve become arrogant. Have you stopped being polite now?”
“Jim is king. “To whom does he speak highly?”
I don’t know if it was his original personality that he was hiding, or if his personality changed after receiving demonic energy, but Baurn’s tone became arrogant to the point of being annoying.
“What is a true king?”
Raon looked up at Baurn and curled the corner of his mouth.
“strength. “It is this force.”
Baurn clenched his fists.
“Only those who have the power to protect the kingdom and further annihilate its enemies can become true kings!”
“force? “As expected.”
He laughed and waved his hand.
“Does a true king gain power by sacrificing his people? That’s not a king, that’s just a slayer. “It’s worse than a foolish monarch who is anxious because he can’t give it to others.”
Baurn says he has finally realized what a true king is, but to me he looks like a slayer, not a king.
-A generous monarch? There are such idiots! Who are you?!
‘… .’
Lars shook his head, saying that a guy who only gives things away is not qualified to be a monarch.
“It is a blessing to become Jim’s flesh and blood. “The people who died will actually be happy.”
Baurn smiled warmly, stroking his now younger body as if he had already lost his mind.
“You can’t do it.”
Raon pointed his finger at Baurn.
“It shows how insignificant that boastful force is.”
“good night. “If you’re a dragon slayer, it wouldn’t be a bad idea to be the first person to make your name known.”
Baurn raised his right hand. The magic energy burning in his grasp became a black beam of light and shot out.
There was almost no delay. The moment the light flashed, Magi was already right in front of us.
Hwaaaaa!
Raon lowered his posture deeply. With the Jecheon Sword tilted downward, he drew a red arrow towards the approaching sphere of demonic energy. He was quite heavy, but not to the point where he couldn’t be cut.
Sigh!
The red-hot rays cut through the demonic energy, leaving a hazy trail in the air.
“Is this all?”
Raon shook his red-hot blade and shook his head.
“No way.”
Baurn smiled slightly and raised his hand again. Countless spheres of magic energy that I had drawn with the enemy a while ago came to mind.
“I just wanted to have a little fun.”
When he lifted his finger, the magical energy spheres that filled the sky poured down as a shower.
Hwaaaah!
Raon drew waves that would swell with Jecheon Sword.
Red petals bloom above the sword’s trajectory. Pieces of flower petals fluttering as if they had experienced the four seasons filled the air.
Cartoon baller Cheonhwa.
Hwaryeong.
Pieces of Kang Hwan blocked the shower of demonic energy, and countless explosions occurred in the sky.
Kwaaaaaaaaaa!
As black smoke covered the sky and the ground, a black shadow rushed in from the right. The speed was so incredible that it was difficult to react.
However, because the movement was so fast, it was not difficult to predict the direction.
Wow!
The moment I stepped on the Taehwa Sambo on the slightly bent rebar, Baurn stretched out his black-stained fist. There was so much force that it seemed as if the surroundings were falling apart.
Raon used the flow of the Three Treasures of Taehwa, which seemed to be swimming in the clouds, to shed Baurun’s fist and then drew a frost kite with the Jecheon Sword.
Sigh!
The True Sword and the Frost Sword extended out one after another.
However, Baurn’s reaction speed seemed to have become faster as he bent his back and easily dodged the two sword strikes before counterattacking with his left fist.
Raon tilted his neck to the right to avoid Baurn’s fist. His cheeks bled from the wind, but he didn’t care.
‘Because everyone was predicting it.’
Biting his lip slightly, he pulled out the requiem sword that raged against Baurn’s magic energy. The bright yellow spirit that shot out from the red blade tore apart the magical energy flowing from Baurn.
Oh my!
Baurn’s lead split slightly, but he took a leisurely step back.
“As expected, it’s pretty good.”
He nodded as if satisfied.
“You said you were the true king, right?”
Raon tilted his chin while looking at Baurn.
“Yes. “Jim is the true king who can protect the Super Kingdom.”
“Is there a king without a crown?”
“What is that… .”
As Baurn was about to frown, the shiny black crown on his head split in half and fell to the ground.
“That was annoying.”
Raon threw the requiem sword, caught it, and smiled slightly.
“What suits a slayer is a rope around his neck. “Because it’s not a crown.”
“this guy!”
A scream that did not sound like it was human came out of Baurn’s throat. His wings spread out, and his magical energy was so enormous that it was difficult for him to breathe.
“I’ll kill you!”
“If you can, try it.”
Raon slammed the Jecheon Sword and Requiem Sword on the floor.
“Sword Realm, Divine Demon Harmony.”
A pure sound twists the world. The golden sun and silver moon rose above the dark night sky filled with demonic energy.
The sticky Magi was pushed into a corner as if frightened by the bright light.
“From you… .”
Raon raised a divine sword and a demonic sword that seemed to have been made from the sun and the moon, and revealed his fierce eyes.
“Take the title of king.”
