Regressing with the King’s Power - Chapter 235
Episode 235
[Little beast, this is…]
[Eat them alive…]
They were all monsters with a vicious appearance, but their momentum did not last long.
Whether the opponent is S grade or SS grade.
This is because he cannot be Taehyeon’s opponent unless he reaches the level of the archduke’s family.
Tiring.
[Skill Energy Drain (S) has been strengthened. Magic power consumption accelerates.]
Sigh. Continue.
Taehyun looked at the two SS-class monsters that were being neutralized by their magical power.
For a guy at the deepest level, they were quite useful.
Just the highest level of SS grade.
It was just below the SS+ level, which is called a subordinate.
“Now it’s time for the guys above to come.”
Approximately two hours have passed since we entered Beelzebub’s territory.
The number of monsters that Taehyun has caught so far has reached a hundred.
Most of them were S to SS rank monsters.
If you put your mind to it, you can easily deal with the SS-rank monsters in front of you, but you were dealing with them as slowly as possible and attracting other monsters.
To anyone who saw it, it looked like they were fishing for monsters.
At that moment, I felt a new monster approaching from a distance.
It’s an energy worthy of the long-awaited SS+ grade.
“bingo.”
Tiring.
[Unique skill Predation (SS) has been activated. Specifies the target.]
Ugh.
Quad deuk. Crack.
Two already incapacitated SS-class monsters were swallowed by the maw of predation.
Tiring.
[Magic power increases by 1.]
‘Two SS-grade monsters and one stat… That’s pretty.’
With that thought in mind, I looked at the monster in front of me.
He was about 3 meters tall and his muscles were red and red.
It was so large that you had to look up to see its two horns.
[Khaaah…!! Intruder, kneel!!]
The guy shouted, radiating enthusiasm.
You know it.
How many monsters has the human in front of me eaten here?
On the other hand, Taehyun remained calm despite the venom of SS+ grade monsters.
‘Not all demons are small.’
Rosaria’s dream tribe, Igmun’s vampire tribe, Orgal’s demon tribe, Lucifer’s angel tribe, Jormungand’s ocean current tribe, Hazard’s dragon tribe, Typhon’s giant tribe.
Just as there are quite a few archdukes in the Abyss.
There are also quite a few forces and races that they are uniting.
Among them, most of the demons were as vicious as their names.
The size was also smaller than that of the Demonic Beasts or Sea Currents or Dragons.
The monster in front of me was someone who broke that stereotype.
‘It’s hideous.’
That’s when Taehyun was thinking about using ‘Energy Drain’.
The big man opened his mouth.
[Rosaria’s contractor. [He must have known where this place was before doing this, right?]
The guy reacted indifferently, as if he had already heard about Taehyun’s identity.
“How could you not know? “Tell your captain to come out.”
Taehyun quietly controlled the unleashed magic power and responded with a sour expression.
[It wouldn’t be enough to tear that mouth off right now. But I won’t kill you. Beelzebub is waiting for you.]
“Thank you.”
The moment the guy raised his arm, Taehyun used his skill.
Tiring.
[Skill Energy Drain (S) has been activated. [Specifies the target.]
This is the moment when the magic power, which has changed into the form of a tentacle, is about to reach the guy’s body.
Float.
The guy didn’t dodge and deflected the skill.
[I am Kelhelam, a descendant of Beelzebub. The same technique would work for me too…]
Tiring.
[Skill Apocalypse (S) has been activated. Specify the target. The consumption of magic power accelerates.] Hwaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa accelerating the consumption
of magic?
Darkness fell over the area.
and.
Tiring.
[Unique skill Predation (SS) has been activated.]
Ugh.
A huge maw spread wide across the ground.
[What…!!]
An SS+ grade monster that identifies itself as Kelhelam.
The guy’s expression changed into something unbelievable.
I felt it instinctively.
Dark magic dominating the area and something dark red underfoot.
Two unknown forces far exceeded his expectations.
[How could Mi-mul…]
His words could not continue.
Quad deuk. Crack.
This is because the magical power of predation bit off its leg.
“For a guy who talks a lot. “There wasn’t a proper guy.”
[Khaak…]
Kelhelam tried to shout, but the predator did not allow it.
Kwasik!!
The predator’s maw bit off the guy’s head.
Demons of the level of servants do not die easily as long as the magic stone exists.
In an instant, the strong limbs were torn off and half of the guy’s body was swallowed up.
Tiring.
[Magic power increases by 1.]
The corners of Taehyun’s mouth rose as he looked at the message that appeared before his eyes.
“I won’t kill you right away.”
Taehyun, who said that, controlled his predation.
The magical power that seemed like it would swallow him up at any moment subsided.
[Beelzebub won’t let him go….]
Kelhelam, who had regenerated his head again, tried to scare him.
This time too, Taehyun did not allow it.
Sigh. Churrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.
A chain rising from the darkness.
Pupupupupup.
It penetrated all over Kelhelam’s body.
“don’t worry. “Because I won’t be bored.”
Tiring.
[Skill Energy Drain (S) has been strengthened. The consumption of magic power accelerates.]
“We have to hold out until the next guy comes, right?”
[Why are things like this…]
Looking down at Kelhelam, whose muscles were starting to shrink.
Taehyun let out an evil laugh.
* * *
After Kelhelam, it was time to feast on three more of Beelzebub’s household members.
This time, the right guy showed up.
‘Is this guy an SSS level monster?’
Less than 2 meters.
It had a dwarf physique for a higher-species monster.
Although the felt magic power itself remained at SS+, it instinctively felt the same as Bloodia.
[human. Beelzebub is looking for you.]
The guy who didn’t even reveal my name said that.
This time, Taehyun didn’t attack too hastily.
Because the invitation to the castle was something I had hoped for.
[Follow me.]
The moment I said that.
Fuhuaak.
Purple magical power emanated from the guy’s body.
The blazing magical power soon took the shape of a gate.
He crossed the gate without saying anything.
Ssyuk.
In an instant, the guy’s presence disappeared.
“It’s a gate…”
It’s a gate created by the enemy.
I wonder where it is connected and whether there is a trap.
Although it is common sense to start with suspicion and not move on.
‘This level of risk is within the expected range.’
There was no need to hesitate once the decision had been made.
Quad deuk.
After covering my entire body with magical power, I crossed the gate.
at the same time.
Tiring.
[The use of magic power has been detected. I was caught by a ‘great power’. It resists with mysterious power. There was some success in resistance. Magic power penetrates. The speed decreases.]
[The use of magic power has been detected. I was caught by a ‘great power’. It resists with mysterious power. There was some success in resistance. Magic power penetrates. My vision is reversed.]
My body became heavy and my vision was reversed.
[‘A great force’ is at work. Strength decreases by 20.]
[‘Great power’ is at work. Stamina decreases by 20.]
[‘Great power’ is at work. Speed is reduced by 20.]
[‘A great force’ is at work. Magic power decreases by 20.]
‘A welcome greeting… It’s loud.’
Even though I was surrounded by magical power, it was a heavy feeling that weighed down my whole body.
However, there was no attack that could have threatened his life.
Taehyun tried to control his expression and looked around.
It is not much different from Rosaria’s castle.
It just feels more gloomy than any castle I’ve ever seen.
The monster that opened the gate was lying prostrate, and an empty throne was visible in the distance.
‘Where is Beelzebub…’
That’s the moment Taehyun thinks.
[Welcome to die. Rosaria’s contractor.]
A familiar voice sounded in Taehyun’s ears.
at the same time.
Phew.
“…!!”
An unknown thorn pierced Taehyeon’s chest.
Whoops.
Blood poured from the mouth.
I turned my head to see Taehyun starting to stiffen.
There, a monster with flashing red eyes was smiling.
Archduke Beelzebub.
The nails of the man otherwise known as the Demon King were digging into his chest.
* * *
Tiring.
[You have been affected by the skill ‘Poison of the Source (SSS)’. It resists with mysterious power. There was some success in resistance. Magic power that cannot be resisted penetrates. Addiction begins.]
Shake it off.
Taehyun got down on one knee due to dizziness.
Rattling.
My body naturally trembled from the rapidly spreading poison.
Even though it resisted through predation, it was to this extent.
Beelzebub looked down darkly at Taehyun.
[Kelbram. Cut off the limbs.]
At the same time as Beelzebub said.
Kelbram, the monster who brought Taehyeon with him, approached.
Unlike before, I felt a fighting spirit in my body.
“Your taste is… unique. “Did you want to see it in person, even if it was an execution ceremony?”
Taehyun forced his mouth to open and release his magic power.
Quaaaaaaaaa.
Dark red magic spread throughout the area.
It could not reach Beelzebub and his family.
This is because in one surprise attack, the body’s condition dropped to less than half.
Taehyun used the skill without hesitation.
Tiring.
[Skill Apocalypse (S) has been activated. The target is not specified.]
[Skill Eye of a Higher Species (S) has been activated.]
Huaaaaaaaaaaaaa.
Darkness fell on Beelzebub’s castle.
[What a cute remnant.]
Beelzebub commented as he looked at the darkened surroundings.
thud. thud. thud. thud.
Regardless of the gravity of ‘Apocalypse’, the family moved forward.
It was to turn Taehyeon into a piece of meat at once under Beelzebub’s orders.
SS+ grade magic power was still leaking from its body.
Just like Bloodia.
‘You cannot achieve SSS grade without certain conditions.’
Taehyun finished understanding in an instant.
Because Beelzebub did not destroy Apocalypse, the buff was not lifted, but his physical abilities had decreased significantly due to his gaze and poison.
‘Nothing good will come of taking time.’
Taehyun didn’t have many options.
Tiring.
[Skill Blood Rush (S) has been activated.]
[A huge power awakens. Muscle strength increases. Strength has reached 350 (351).]
[A great power awakens. Stamina increases. Health has reached 350 (351).]
[A great power awakens. The speed increases. The speed has increased to 350 (351).]
[A great power awakens. Magic power increases. Magic power has become 475 (476).]
Blood-red magic power mixed in on top of the dark red magic power.
Taehyun’s red eyes became even darker.
‘Apocalypse’ and ‘blood rush’.
Even though two skills were overlapped, the buff effect was not significant.
Quad deuk.
Taehyun’s whole body was strengthened.
‘Finish it once and for all.’
Ssssssut.
Tiring.
[Skill Dark Apostle (S) has been activated. The location is specified.]
The moment when Taehyun’s body feels like it is being sucked into the darkness.
Ssssssut.
Taehyun appeared right behind the family.
and.
New Korean ancient martial arts 7th form. plain.
A tightly clenched fist and a straight hand touched the body.
Whoa!!
Kelbram’s body began to swell.
The magical energy inside the body is flowing backwards.
[Hoo.]
Beelzebub watched with interest.
I’ve been living for a long time, but this was my first time being attacked like this.
The family members stopped moving to control the backflow of magic power.
Taehyun is not the type of person who would miss that brief moment.
“Beelzebub! Look carefully!!”
Tiring.
[Unique skill Predation (SS) has been activated. Specifies the target.]
Ugh.
The maw of predation, shaped by dark red magical power, revealed its teeth.
[…!!]
Beelzebub’s expression hardened at the unexpected situation.
Without hesitation.
The maw of predation swallowed up the family.
Quad deuk. Quad deuk.
“I didn’t come here to die.”
Leaving behind the message that the stats have increased.
“I came to make a pact to summon the Demon King.”
Taehyun’s declaration of war continued.
