Regressing with the King’s Power - Chapter 370

Chapter 370

Verona looked at Devlin who was excited and quietly assessed the situation.

The highest species of vampires selected by Igmun to win this bet.

Among them, she was the unofficial leader.

[Devlin, calm down.]

[Ha. Calm down? Are you going to play with Kim Tae-hyun after Jormungand?!!]

Verona was unable to say anything to Devlin’s rebuttal.

Because she knows better than anyone else.

If Kim Tae-hyun continues to send attacks into the blood field.

In the end, I can’t properly deal with Eir in front of me in my current state.

No, no matter how much they are the highest species of Igmun, they will be completely exterminated in the end.

[You don’t mean to sit back and suffer like those idiots, right?]

Devlin said, mocking the four top species who were hit by the Arrow of Radiance.

They are the lower-class, top-tier species that were put in from the beginning to keep the numbers in line.

Over time, I will reach the same level as them.

My combat power right now was far below theirs.

[Of course.]

Verona agreed with Devlin’s thoughts.

The remaining six, including Devlin, are different from the four who have already disappeared.

They are all creatures that can be said to be the limbs of Igmun.

If more than one extinction is added here.

The power of the vampires would suffer an indescribable blow.

‘It will be similar to Rosaria’s power.’

It’s becoming similar to the dream demons, who are said to be the weakest of the great princes.

This was an incredible shame both for the Archduke and his followers.

That situation had to be avoided at all costs.

Because they are the highest ranking members, they cannot tarnish the face of their lord.

[What are you thinking so much about?]

[Devlin. Are you planning on going on a rampage?]

[Ha, yes. Don’t worry, I won’t tell you to do it.]

[….]

Runaway.

Among the highest species, it is a top grade.

If they go on a rampage, their power is beyond imagination.

Maybe I could fight on equal footing with the Valkyrie in front of me.

But if that happens.

[You will surely disappear.]

[Giggles.]

Devlin laughed at Verona’s calm attitude.

It’s because I read the emotions beyond that.

[Are you afraid of extinction?]

[….]

Quang.

One of the highest species struck down another arrow that appeared after opening the gate.

Although we avoided a situation where it disappeared immediately like before.

From the frown on his face, I could tell that the force loaded on the arrow was not light.

The worries didn’t last long.

[I will follow your words. My hometown provides support.]

[Hehehe. Now I can tear that unlucky face to pieces.]

Devlin said and raised his magic power.

Quaoooo.

Blood-red magic enveloped her body.

A rush of blood.

This is a technique created by Igmun that imitates the power of Jormungand.

Just like Taehyun did.

The scent of blood bloomed from Devlin’s body, and his physical abilities began to increase rapidly.

If compared to a player, the power of all stats increased by 100.

Is that all?

Keying.

Devlin’s Magic Stone.

Next to it, another magic stone began to form.

Igmun’s power ‘absorption’ was used.

Tsuzzzzzzzz.

Second heart.

The empty place was quickly filled with magical power sucked from the Blood Field.

The changes didn’t end there.

Fazizik.

Following the two magic stones, she began creating a third magic stone.

[…!!]

Eir, who was watching this entire process with his blue eyes, hurriedly threw out his spear.

sheen.

This is to block Devlin’s change with a lump of holy power.

Verona blocked Devlin’s path as if waiting.

Her fingernails split a chunk of holy power.

Shhh.

Verona’s fingernails burned away with the sound of blood-red magic evaporating.

A truly terrifying power.

A power that is only focused on defeating even those who are close to the peak of monsters.

An entity that makes even the Archduke, the ruler of the Abyss, laughable.

Elyos.

[They are truly unpleasant beings.]

Wedge.

When Verona swung her hand, sword-like pieces aimed at Eir’s body.

Teong. Tongue.

Eir swung his spear and swatted away the blood-red magic.

Eir used a new rune to focus his attacks.

Keying.

This is the moment when a shield is created with brilliance.

nettle liquid.

bang!!

A huge spear flew out of nowhere and struck Eir’s shield.

[…!!]

Of course, Eire was struck by that terrifying power.

Verona also looked in the direction where the spear was thrown.

There, Devlin, who had succeeded in creating the third magic stone, was emitting magical energy.

A state that only the highest species of vampires can reach by risking their lives.

Blood hwa (血化) that creates three magic stones.

All of these people here have abilities that they can demonstrate if given the right conditions.

If you use that power, you will end up with the original magic stone bursting, unable to withstand the overload.

The time it can maintain its power is not long, but during that time, it becomes an omnipotent being.

[This power is not light. Odin’s dog.]

Devlin said and stretched out his hand.

The magic power of the Blood Field was sucked into those hands.

Quaaaaa.

It is an ominous force that seems to extinguish its brilliance at any moment.

Eir, who had retreated from Verona’s checks, concentrated new brilliance in his hands.

Among the five runes she could use, it was a power with the nature of amplification.

It might be difficult to use three runes at the same time.

It was judged that if she was allowed to resist further than this, even she could be in danger.

That’s it.

One of the four top species, excluding Verona and Devlin, began to absorb the magic power of the Blood Field.

He then handed the condensed essence of blood-red magic to Devlin.

The other three top species were keeping it in check as they did not know when the gate would open and the arrows would fly out.

[Devlin. I salute your fighting spirit.]

[Turan. Let’s use it well.]

Devlin has already decided to risk his life to tear that Valkyrie apart.

I had no intention of refusing just to show off my mediocre pride.

Devlin opened his blood-red wings, which were comparable to those of the demon race.

He held a blood sword in his hand, and blood dripped between his long fingernails.

Is there a more fitting way to execute a servant of the upper world?

Giggling.

Devlin lunged at Eir.

Quang!!

[…!!]

Damn. Take a look.

The shield that blocked the blood sword cracked with a single blow.

Eir’s eyes inside the helmet wavered.

Is that all?

Pssssss.

The blood-red magic that erupted from the blood sword began to cover the brilliance of the shield.

[Rune?]

Devlin asked mockingly.

Poseok.

The shield engulfed in blood melted away like blood.

Kaang!!

The Spear of Radiance and the Blood Sword clashed.

[You were so excited to believe such trivial things?]

Devlin smiled and grabbed Eir’s spear.

I don’t know what to do.

He released blood-red magical energy, heedless of the power that burned his hands.

Even at this moment, she thought that there was no way she could lose as she was absorbing the magic power of the Blood Field.

The brightness was suddenly covered with blood.

[….]

Eir’s blue eyes, revealed through his helmet, frowned.

How can you say that your runes are only contaminated by monsters?

[Where is the insignificant thing?]

Kiiing.

A new spear was created in the hands of Eir, who threw away the spear.

It’s not like the spear commonly used by Valkyries.

A holy spear that can only be summoned by concentrating the power of four runes in one place.

Longinus.

Wow.

The entire area was brightly lit by the holy power emitted by the Spear of Longinus.

It was only for a moment that Devlin was unable to adjust to the suddenly brighter vision.

Phew.

The holy spear pierced the body without missing the opportunity.

Puhwaaaak.

Blood spurted from Devlin’s body.

This is not a shock that even the highest-ranking species can withstand.

However.

Giggling.

Devlin didn’t care and walked forward.

Toouk.

That play. That’s it.

Her fingernails scratched Eir’s armor.

Eir thrust the holy spear deeply.

Cough.

The internal organs are being destroyed by a force that even interferes with ultra-fast playback.

If others had not continued to absorb the power of the field and infuse it with magical power, his internal organs would have melted and his body would have stopped moving.

[It’s no use.]

Devlin doesn’t care and takes another shot.

I took a step forward.

Toouk.

The places where her fingernails were not covered by the armor.

It touched Eir’s fingertips holding the holy spear.

It only touched me for a moment.

It was enough to use the maximized power.

[Died.]

Quaaaaaaa.

Radiance was sucked in through Devlin’s fingernails.

It was the source of power that allowed Eir to maintain his existence, acting as blood in his body.

[die. die. die. Die.]

Devlin repeated those words as if he was cursing.

Eir also unleashed the power of his holy spear not to be defeated.

In the end, it was Devlin who had the advantage because he was receiving the protection of the realm.

[You are destined to die here with your original ghost.]

Giggle, giggle, giggle.

[….]

[I’ll dig out that unfortunate eye from your skinny, twisted body and chew it up and eat it. The defiled body will become infected, and soon others will follow.]

With words like a curse, Eir said the last rune.

I tried using the recovery rune, but the amount of power Devlin absorbed was unusual.

The time it took to maintain the holy spear and armor simply increased.

Not good.

Devlin, prepared to die, had already almost integrated his body with the blood field.

You have to risk your life.

That fact made Eir feel bad.

Are you willing to risk your life to deal with monsters?

But it wasn’t wrong.

If you lose here.

Even the lives of Gunne and Skaarl could not be guaranteed.

They had to be exterminated and escape before the archdukes got involved in the battle.

[Damn vampire.]

This is the moment when Eir curses and is about to use the last rune.

Phew.

Something landed on Devlin’s back.

I feel bad for both Eir and Devlin.

It was a blue sword that radiated the energy of the dragon race.

I don’t know what to do.

A thunderbolt flowed from that sword.

[…!!]

[…!!]

Eir did not miss the moment when Devlin hesitated.

She quickly pulled out the holy spear she had plunged into Devlin and widened the distance behind her.

Devlin tried to sink his nails in again.

It’s a joke!!

A difficult opportunity was lost in the intensifying thunderstorm.

Devlin pulled out the sword stuck in his body.

Just holding it in my hand caused constant lightning, so I had no choice but to smash it into the floor.

Devlin identified the sword’s owner.

Taehyun Kim.

Rosaria’s contractor.

The key to the Underworld King that his master is after.

The insignificant human was smiling at her.

“Does it hurt?”

[This… damn… bastard….]

And.

“I’m sick too.”

It seems like it’s sincere.

Taehyun gave a clumsy performance.

* * *

Eir was also surprised.

This is the moment when she is about to use the fifth rune in a fortunate opportunity.

[Air, stop.]

It was Gunne who said that.

Skal and Gunne.

The two Valkyries who were dealing with Taehyun and his group were entering the Blood Field.

[What is this situation? Why is that guy…]

[A contract was made.]

A question arose in Eir’s eyes at Skaarl’s answer.

[A contract with a human or something? What nonsense…]

Eir’s attitude required an explanation.

[You will know when you watch.]

[It is better not to deal with a guy like that.]

Gunne and Skaarl exchanged meaningful looks.
