Regressing with the King’s Power - Chapter 200

Episode 200:

Grand Duke Igmun.

There was something before Taehyun’s eyes that he could not handle.

[Did Bloodia get hit?]

Igmun’s voice rang in my head.

Taehyun instinctively widened the distance.

I already had a fatigue potion and a magic potion in my hand.

‘Predation’ or ‘Rosaria’.

Without those two skills, there is no hope.

In order to summon Rosaria in her current state, recovery of magic power and fatigue was an urgent priority.

To do that.

‘I need at least one minute.’

To last one minute against the enemy.

It meant risking your life.

Taehyun quickly emptied two bottles of potion.

My body became lighter and my magic power filled up quickly.

[Rosaria’s contractor. I wanted to meet you again.]

Ig-moon approached Tae-hyeon.

It seemed like a huge mountain was approaching.

[It’s not enough to use my power, but you’re causing trouble.]

It was a calm reaction despite losing a family member.

[Are you ready to pay the price?]

Quaoooo.

Taehyun raised his magic power without saying a word.

Magic unlocked for the second battle.

It was not strange to attack first at any time.

The corner of Igmun’s mouth twitched as he looked at Taehyun like that.

[Are you planning on summoning Rosaria? Please give it a try.]

“….”

[This is my territory. I don’t think I can handle the damage done to Rosaria by Orgal.]

As Igmun said those words, blood-red magic overflowed from his body.

It’s not wrong.

Even though it blooms lightly, its magical power is incomparable to Bloodia.

Can Rosaria, who lost one arm, handle Igmun?

no.

‘It was a mistake.’

Taehyun belatedly admitted his mistake.

This was the situation Rosaria was wary of.

No matter how strong Taehyeon has become, he is still a mere novice compared to the Grand Duke.

There was no way she knew that Igmun had this kind of movement technology.

‘I try everything I can.’

In the worst case, they have to go on a rampage to escape from this place.

It wasn’t completely impossible as long as magic power and fatigue were restored.

When you think like that.

[I can’t watch it anymore.]

I heard the monster’s language in my head.

It wasn’t Igmun’s voice.

[You’re going to fight that guy with just that much strength? Are you planning to die?]

‘You…’

Doppelganger.

The guy who hadn’t been noticed since the game on Jeju Island raised his head.

‘It didn’t disappear after all.’

[That’s not even close to that. How about a player change for the first time in a while?]

‘….’

[If you fucking die, I’ll be in trouble too.]

‘If you’re going to interfere this time, just keep quiet.’

Taehyun cursed as he remembered his previous battle with Kentamion.

[I assure you. Because I will never let you die.]

Is it because of my mood?

Contrary to what he said, it seemed like he was giggling.

‘I hate to admit it, but…’

Unlike Taehyun, he has no restrictions on the use of magical power.

If you entrust your body to the doppelganger, it may be possible to escape from Igmun.

‘No, maybe it’s not just about escaping…’

My body flinched as my thoughts continued rapidly.

no.

Either way, I am captured by Igmun.

Either give your body to your doppelganger.

Both options were the worst for Taehyun.

The doppelganger who read his thoughts clicked his tongue.

I never thought that he would rather give up his body than die.

[good. In that case, send him ‘to me.’]

‘What?’

[If you don’t want to give up your body, you have to take that risk.]

‘…’

I didn’t worry for long.

Still, there were less than ten steps left between me and Igmun.

[I finally got it.]

Igmun’s face was filled with ecstasy as he looked at Taehyun.

“Is that what you’re talking about again?”

[I will ask. Where is the king?]

Five steps.

With Taehyun right in front of him, Igmun was completely defenseless.

“That kind of thing.”

Tiring.

[Unique skill Predation (SS) has been activated. Specifies the target.]

“Ask directly.”

Ugh.

A huge maw opened beneath Igmun’s feet.

Igmun watched this quietly.

[Hoo. [This is…]

Suddenly.

The maw of devouring did not wait and devoured its target.

This is the moment when Taehyun immediately tries to leave.

[Where are you going?]

Puhwaak.

The dark red magic power that engulfed Igmun.

The maw of predation burst open.

“…!!”

1 second.

I guess I didn’t do my best.

This is the first time that predation has been broken so quickly.

Surprised, Taehyun threw the newly emptied potion bottle at Igmun.

Clink.

The potion bottle broke before it could even touch Igmun’s body.

[The eye of a higher level skill (S) has been activated.]

Clang.

[Skill Apocalypse (S) has been activated.]

Clang.

Each time a skill was used, one magic potion was emptied.

Ig-moon quietly waited for Tae-hyeon’s struggles.

[How has Mi-mul grown this far?]

A moment in Hong Kong came to mind the other day.

A small creature who killed his contractor, Zhang Linfeng.

At that time, it was at a level where you could kill with just one finger.

But what about now?

Although he is relatively weak, he covets Bloodia, a member of his clan.

As if that wasn’t enough, they are struggling against the Archduke like this.

The key chosen by the king.

Even taking that into account, it was an incredible growth rate.

[See more. Is this all?]

Igumoon pointed his finger at Taehyeon.

Sreung. Sreung. Sreung.

Dozens of blood swords appeared in the air.

Taehyun also didn’t stay still.

Tiring.

[Skill Blood Rush (S) has been activated.]

In addition to the dark red magic power, blood red magic power bloomed.

[A great power awakens. Muscle strength increases. Strength has increased to 360 (400).]

[A great power awakens. Stamina increases. Stamina has reached 360 (400).]

[A great power awakens. The speed increases. The speed has become 360 (400).]

[A great power awakens. Magic power increases. Magic power has increased to 510 (550).]

‘Blood Rush’ in ‘Apocalypse’.

The two buffs overlapped.

All stats are 400.

My confident magic stat is 550.

Druddudduddudduk.

My body was shaking from the excessive load.

The blood sword was aimed at Taehyeon.

It was an unbelievable speed in an apocalypse where gravity works.

The swirling chains in ‘Apocalypse’ collided with the blood sword.

Taehyun directly avoided the blood sword that could not be offset.

‘Are you playing with me?’

Countless blood swords are being created according to Igmun’s hand gestures.

I’m guessing hundreds.

Could know.

That he can lift ‘Apocalypse’ if he wants to.

If you want to.

That it could cause Taehyun’s death in an instant.

That is, if Igmun fully unleashes his original power.

‘Is it because I am the key?’

Rosaria. Orgal. Excuse me.

The grand dukes were attaching some special meaning to the keys left behind by the king.

That’s why I didn’t subdue Taehyun right away.

[Is it all I can do to escape after using my power?]

Kaang.

I struck down a flying blood sword with my fist.

Even though I was covered in magic, my hands felt numb.

Even if Valhalla had been fine, it wouldn’t have been able to stop it five times.

[Look again. The power the king left to you.]

Ignoring Igmun’s words, I used the next skill.

Tiring.

[Skill Demonization (S) has been activated. Specify the mimicry part.]

[Skill Demonization (S) has been strengthened. Magic power consumption is accelerating.]

Crackle. Crackling.

Taehyun’s arms and legs were grotesquely swollen.

[I can feel Orgal’s magic.]

Quang!!

Taehyun blocked the flying blood sword and approached Igmun.

Speed and strength generated from condensed muscles.

Abilities that increase through ‘demonization’.

It was a level that could not be compared to ‘Stone Skin’.

Quang. Quang.

Slashing away the blood swords.

thud. thud. Cooung. Wow.

Just a few leaps.

Taehyun reached Igmun.

Buuuung.

The fist swung with an eerie sound.

terup.

Igumoon lightly grabbed Taehyeon’s hand.

Wow.

There was no need to panic.

I was already expecting it.

Taehyun’s other hand grabbed Igmun’s wrist.

Tiring.

[Skill Energy Drain (S) has been activated. Specifies the target.]

[Skill Energy Drain (S) has been strengthened. Magic power consumption accelerates.]

Pazzzzzzzzz.

Igmun’s blood-red magic began to be absorbed by Taehyeon.

There was no message about stats increasing like in Bloodia.

Instead, the magic power that had been sinking to the bottom quickly rose.

100… 200… 300… 400… 450…

When the remaining horsepower exceeds 450.

Phew.

A long blood sword pierced through the chest.

“Ugh…”

Blood flowed from the corner of Taehyun’s mouth.

Phew. Phew. Phew.

eight. leg. stomach.

The blood sword penetrated Taehyeon’s body as if he were being skewered.

If it weren’t for ‘ultra-fast regeneration’, it wouldn’t have seemed surprising if the limbs were cut off right away.

[The key is mine.]

This is the moment when Ig-moon is about to reach out to Tae-hyeon’s enemy.

Tiring.

[Skill Dragon’s Rage (S) has been activated. Specifies the target.]

Quarrrrr!!

Igmun’s hand stopped at the force radiating from Taehyun’s body.

Blonde hair was flowing.

Tiring.

[Unique skill Predation (SS) has been activated. Specifies the target.]

[Unique skill Predation (SS) has been strengthened. Magic power consumption accelerates.]

Ugh.

The area under Taehyun’s feet turned into a swamp.

Taehyun and Igmun began to sink little by little.

[It’s like this…]

Before Igmun could finish his sentence.

Taehyun used the last skill.

Tiring.

[Skill Complete Hypnosis (S) has been activated. Specifies the target.]

[Skill Complete Hypnosis (S) has been strengthened. The consumption of magic power accelerates.]

“Come and die. Igmun.”

Red eyes filled with all magical power flicker.

Taehyun chewed and spit out.

* * *

Igmun looked around.

The red sky symbolizing the Abyss.

The desert spreads endlessly below.

Igmun laughed loudly.

I could tell at a glance that it was an image world.

How dare he drag the Archduke into his imaginary world.

[He is indeed an interesting guy.]

The last skill Taehyun used was ‘Complete Hypnosis’.

It was clear that it belonged to Rosaria.

However, the level of what the great dukes use and what the minors use cannot be the same.

I could destroy it if I wanted to.

Still, what happened was.

This is because Igmun also doesn’t have much time left.

Although Taehyun didn’t know.

Igmun’s body was not his original body.

He simply hid his alter ego inside Bloodia’s third enemy.

[I will take control of your mind like this.]

The blood-red magic that swirled from Igmun’s body connected with the red sky.

encroachment. Or erosion.

Whatever expression you use.

There is no change in the fact that Taehyun becomes his puppet.

[For someone who’s been a guest for a long time, he’s being violent.]

[Hmm?]

Igmun’s eyebrows twitched.

What you see in front of you is clearly Kim Tae-hyun.

But the atmosphere was strangely different.

[Who are you? [You.]

I immediately saw that you were a different being outside the world of images.

[Who is it?]

Quaaaaa.

Another Taehyun grinned and raised his magic power.

A dark red magic power that rivaled Igmun’s spread throughout the area.

Igmun’s face twitched slightly as he watched this.

[Welcome to my world, Vampire Lord.]

Taehyun spread his arms and burst into laughter.

Soon after.

Dark red magic power and blood red magic power.

Two forces collided in the world of imagination.
