Regressing with the King’s Power - Chapter 281
Episode 281
[Put away your sword.]
Erebos said.
“You’d better not move until you accept my terms.”
Taehyun responded with words that bordered on threats.
Psychological warfare followed by physical warfare.
Among monsters, the giants tend to be particularly hot-tempered.
No matter how much Erebus is, he is said to be the most rational among the giants.
Even in the face of his younger brother’s death, he was not able to maintain composure.
[Didn’t I tell you to put the sword away!!]
It’s okay.
Kwasik. Kwasik.
Lightning struck various places throughout Erebos’ excited body.
The ground evaporated from the thunderbolt stuck in it.
‘With that level of attack, ultra-fast regeneration won’t be easy.’
It’s not impossible.
It was not difficult to predict that the speed would slow down, as did the effects of ‘Devil’s Saliva’ and ‘Predation’.
Taehyun clicked his tongue and thrust his sword.
It was aimed at Aeter’s neck.
Chi profit. Cheeeeeee.
The poisonous magic power emitted by the ‘devil’s saliva’ was poured into the great sword made from the ‘Apostle of Darkness’.
The combination of the two skills was enough to easily melt even the solid muscles of the giants.
[…!!]
Erebos has one of the greatest skills among the Archduke’s highest ranks.
He, who could not have been unaware of Beelzebub’s power, flinched.
It is not important how Rosaria’s contractor handles the power of other archdukes.
There is only one thing that matters now.
If you leave it like this, that sword will melt your brother’s skin and cut off his head.
The neck that falls off will never be regenerated.
For the first time since Orgal killed Typhon, I felt a chilling feeling.
That too.
[To a mere human…]
That eerie feeling calmed Erebos’ excited emotions and brought him back to his senses.
[i get it. I won’t move.]
“Okay. “Don’t make me say it twice.”
Sigh.
Taehyun continued speaking with a smile as if he was handling a child.
“and?”
[I will accept your offer.]
Erebos said, gritting his teeth.
Although he chose these words with his pride aside.
“You’re wrong, Erebos. “Since the situation has changed, shouldn’t the conditions also be new?”
Taehyun shook his head and flicked his great sword.
[….]
For a moment, I felt angry at that shamelessness.
Erebus realized the situation and opened his mouth.
[Tell me the new conditions…]
“The loot you can take is the same. “If I win, I will hand over this and other castles.”
Rosaria’s 5th and 4th castles.
Those were the two places Taehyun was referring to.
“On the other hand, if I win, Erebos. “I will have you.”
I will have the confidence to lead the remnants of the giants.
That also meant that he would keep all the giants under his command.
[Puh… Puh heh… You’re talking nonsense.]
Sparks flew from Erebos’ massive body, which was shaking at the absurd words.
The anger that I had been struggling to control exploded and I was unable to control my power.
“I think you’re mistaken. “There is no choice.”
After saying that, Taehyun thrust his sword once again.
Tiring.
[Skill Devil’s Saliva (SS) has been strengthened. Magic consumption is accelerated.]
[Skill addiction (SS) has been activated. Specifies the target.]
Cheeeeeeeek.
Poisonous magic seeped through Aeter’s throat, and soon its gigantic body turned purple.
The skill ‘Poisoning’ was used to infiltrate the ‘Devil’s Saliva’.
Although it is a skill that has already been fused and disappeared.
As Taehyun’s magical power control became more proficient, it became possible to use it in this way.
‘Kasim Zort. I feel like I’m getting a little closer to his methods.’
At the same time, Ricky Harlis was alive.
I could see how high a level of magical power control she had.
Before I knew it, one-fifth of Aether’s massive body was poisoned with purple light.
Erebos shouted involuntarily at the ridiculous speed of the addiction.
[Didn’t I tell you to stop!!]
“Answer.”
This time, it was Taehyun’s job to win the psychological warfare.
[That offer… I will accept it…]
Erebos answered as if chewing and spitting out.
Sparks flew from the enemy eyes of the guy who said that.
“That’s right. “That makes him a good kid.”
It seems like he doesn’t care about the opponent’s speculation.
Grinning.
Taehyun’s red eyes were bent like a half moon.
* * *
Before a new duel begins.
Taehyeon entrusted the dying Aether to Muron.
Although she allowed Erebos, Taehyeon, and Aether to attack in succession.
It was nothing compared to Aeter’s condition suffered by Taehyun.
“Take care of yourself. “If you make a mistake again, you will have to pay the price.”
At Taehyun’s creepy words.
[…I understand.]
Just like Erebus did a little while ago.
Muron also had no choice but to answer like he was chewing and spitting out the question.
“If we had started right away, the game would have been won by now. “You came back in vain.”
Contrary to what he said, Taehyun looked satisfied.
Muron’s defeat.
Aether’s participation in the war.
Also the battle with Erebos, who accepted his offer.
Because everything goes according to plan.
[In the name of the giants, I will tear you to pieces. And they will chew and eat every single corpse.]
“You say things without responsibility that you cannot take responsibility for. “Keep your promises.”
[I. will do. [That is.]
Pazzuzuzuz, that is.
With a spark, Erebos’ huge fist aimed at Taehyeon.
It felt as if a meteorite was approaching at lightning speed.
Tiring.
[Skill Shadow Apostle (SS) has been activated. Specify the location.]
Ssssssut.
Taehyun’s body was sucked into darkness.
The distance widened.
That was something Erebos had expected.
Pazzzzzzzzzz.
The electric current emanating from its massive body scattered in all directions.
Access, of course.
It was to detect where Taehyun was hiding.
and.
[Is it there?]
Quang.
The terrain changed wherever the guy’s fist landed.
On the other hand, Taehyun appears to be in a hurry to run away.
The chase-and-run fight is ultimately determined by how quickly you can read your opponent’s patterns.
A thunderbolt scatters to a location that can be moved to the ‘Apostle of Darkness’.
Erebos’ red eye, which occupied all positions, caught Taehyun.
Kwasik.
Taehyun’s guarded body bounced off.
SS grade skill ‘Demonization’.
‘Stone Skin’ has grown to SS rank.
New Korean ancient martial art 3rd form Geumgang.
Even though Taehyun strengthened his body with the martial arts he had learned, there was quite a bit of shock.
‘All the giants….’
Just by swinging it, it has the power of a season.
Erebos was special among the giants.
‘Not only the strength stats but also the speed stats are incredible.’
Basically, a guy with high strength and stamina takes on the attribute of lightning, so it’s like a monster gaining wings.
A shadow fell over Taehyun as he bounced away.
It was the fist of Erebos, like a meteorite.
‘You can’t get hit.’
However, it should not be blocked.
Tiring.
[Skill Dragon’s Rage (SS) has been activated.]
Crrr!!
[…!!]
It took a moment for my fist to flinch from the sudden display of spirit.
Tiring.
[Skill Stealth (SS) has been activated.]
[Skill Dark Apostle (SS) has been activated. [Specify the location.]
Taehyun widened the distance once again.
‘The stat difference is too severe for close combat.’
But that means.
‘It can also be said to be a good test for growth.’
Tiring.
[Skill Blood Rush (SS) has been activated.]
The dark red magic power subsided and blood red magic power rose.
[A great power awakens. Muscle strength increases. Strength has increased to 375 (385).]
[Great power awakens. Stamina increases. Stamina has reached 380 (390).]
[A great power awakens. The speed increases. The speed has become 375 (380).]
[A great power awakens. Magic power increases. Magic power has increased to 540.]
‘Demonization’ and ‘Blood Runaway’.
Taehyun overlapped two skills that could raise his stats.
and.
Developing the first form of ancient Chinese martial arts.
Erebos’ fist and Taehyeon’s fist collided.
Quang.
Taehyun’s body was thrown away with a loud noise.
Kwazizijik.
After rolling on the ground several times, my body stopped.
Taehyun regenerated his broken body and continued his attack.
Chonjing, the second form of ancient Chinese martial arts.
The third form of ancient Chinese martial arts.
The 4th form of ancient Chinese martial arts, Seonjing.
Erebos’ fist and Taehyun’s fist collided and bounced off several times.
Ancient Chinese martial arts 5th type penetrator.
Kwasik.
There was a feeling from the penetrator.
‘This is it.’
[…!!]
When Taehyun didn’t jump out, Erebos also seemed surprised, even if it was only for a moment.
and.
Sixth form of ancient Chinese martial arts. Shin Hwa-kyung.
Kwaang!!
Support position.
Erebos was pushed back, albeit slightly, by the clashing fists.
Tiring.
[Strength has increased by 1.]
[Stamina has increased by 1.]
[Proficiency in skill Blood Rush (SS) has increased.]
[Proficiency in skill Demonic Beast (SS) has increased.]
A message window appears.
The results were as expected, and I couldn’t help but smile.
“What are you doing. “He’s not coming in.”
Taehyun guided Erebos’ next attack.
This is because it is difficult to control the body that has started to boil.
[He’s the one who bumps fists with me.]
This is ridiculous.
The highest ranking member of the Grand Duke.
Among them, it is impossible unless you are a demonic beast or dragon race.
But something ridiculous was happening right in front of my eyes.
“If you don’t come in, I’m leaving.”
Ssssssut.
Just wait for Taehyun’s body to disappear.
Kwasik!!
Taebaek, the first form of the new Korean ancient martial art.
Taehyeon’s hand blade struck Erebos’ neck.
at the same time.
I don’t know what to do.
An electric shock struck Taehyun’s body.
Tiring.
[Stamina has increased by 1.]
Taehyun’s face with his teeth clenched.
It was as if he was enjoying the pain.
* * *
Taehyun Kim.
A human whose name is known even to the deepest levels of the Abyss.
When I first heard the news that he had survived the Archduke, I thought it was luck.
Otherwise, humans would be dismissed as insects by the Archduke.
This was because it was difficult to understand that he was protecting his life despite being the target of many anti-communist forces.
But it was different now.
I don’t know how humans can have such a huge vessel.
strong.
To the extent that he threatened himself, a direct descendant of the Grand Duke.
Pazzzzzzz, that is.
Kwasik.
Erebus thought so as he watched Taehyun not stop attacking even though he received his power.
It is a power that even Muron could not come to his senses after being struck by it once.
A continuation of that kind of power.
Taehyun didn’t care and continued to attack.
[An unpleasant body.]
Erebos evaluated Taehyeon’s body, which had just completed its regeneration, that way.
Due to the influence of authority, it can no longer be said to be ultra-fast regeneration.
Nevertheless, the regenerated body contained a mixture of the bodies of demons, demonic beasts, and vampires.
Taehyun took a step forward, not caring about the electric shock flowing through his body.
New Korean ancient martial arts 6th form, Sibjin.
Quang.
Erebos’ body swayed.
next.
Quaoooooo.
New Korean ancient martial arts 7th type plain.
The tightly clenched fist and straight palm were already touching Erebos’ waist.
Whoa!!
The fist, which is the principle of sutra, and the intestine, which is the principle of the eight trigrams.
Even though the two techniques overlapped, Erebos did not vomit blood.
only.
Pazz.
The power that covered Erebos’ body faded.
This is because Taehyun’s attack started a slight reflux.
“Whoa.”
Only then did Taehyun stop attacking and catch his breath.
How many times have ancient martial arts and high-speed regeneration been repeated?
If it weren’t for Beelzebub and Jormungand, such rough methods would never have been dreamed of.
‘But thanks to you, I raised my stats enough.’
Erebos’ thunderbolt has the power to make even SSS level monsters dangerous.
Taehyun’s body, which withstood that force, had higher physical stamina than expected.
“Let’s finish this soon.”
Tiring.
[Unique skill Predation (SS) has been activated. Specifies the target.]
The ‘eyes of a higher species’ and the ‘heart of a higher species’ were linked, and the entire body of the creature was dyed red.
[Why is a guy like you a contractor for Rosaria?]
I just don’t understand.
At the same time, Taehyun’s red eyes looking at him were more unpleasant than before.
A predator with its prey right in front of it.
It was a feeling I had never experienced in a long time.
“Don’t worry, I won’t eat it all.”
Ugh.
The magical power of devouring revealed its teeth towards Erebos.
