Regressing with the King’s Power - Chapter 373
Episode 373
[Contractor. It was truly a dirty method.]
“Is that a compliment?”
[Ahahahaha.]
Rosaria laughed and waved her tentacle.
In response, Igmun’s blood sword cut into Rosaria’s tentacles.
Unlike before, the regeneration of the cut down area was not working properly.
‘As expected, Rosaria alone is dangerous.’
This is Igmun’s territory.
They would have done everything they could to prepare for the possibility of a battle between the archdukes breaking out.
It was natural that Rosaria was pushed back.
‘If you intervene now, you will be intruding.’
Taehyun, who checked my physical condition, made that decision.
It wasn’t just because he put most of his energy into the fight against Devlin.
In addition to her increased stats after feasting on her, there were significant changes to her body as she made the oath of summoning with Igmun.
The blood-red magic power is writhing within the body and competing with other magic powers.
There were times when he accepted the magic power of other archdukes.
The only difference is that it is difficult to handle as it is forced by the power of desire.
‘If I were the person I am now, I could suppress it.’
Taehyun controlled the magic that seemed to be flowing back at any moment and turned his attention to the three Valkyries.
I still had a promise to keep with them.
Using the ‘Apostle of the Gate’ is possible with just a little rest.
However, I was disappointed with the power of all of them, who were all at the level of great devils.
“Are you planning on taking Igmun with you? If you want, we will do our best to cooperate.”
Taehyun asked as if throwing a question, and the Valkyries responded as expected.
[….]
[Are you crazy….]
[We… will be satisfied with these guys. [Keep your last promise.]
This meant that I didn’t want to be caught up in this battle anymore, so I had to open the gate.
“It’s a shame.”
Taehyun said and took out a potion from his belt.
Top-quality healing potion, fatigue potion, and magic potion.
These are things that Alchemist created just for Taehyun in a special combination.
In addition, after tearing a few scrolls, the internal regurgitation subsided considerably.
In the meantime, Verona and other top players showed speculation.
Every time that happened, the dark blue magic power tightened them.
I wonder if blood flower had been used from the beginning.
Because they continued to refuse contracts, they also developed reflux and were not in a good state.
“Being too busy for no reason.”
Tiring.
[Skill Energy Drain (SSS) has been activated. Specifies the target.]
[Skill Binding Chain (SSS) has been activated. [Specify the target.]
Five chains were stuck on the struggling top species.
Tsuzzzzzz.
The blood-red magic they gave off was absorbed by Taehyun.
[You bastard!!]
[You bastard…!!]
[Kim Tae-hyun…]
[Don’t look at me funny…]
[…!!]
The five top species raised their fighting spirit to the very end.
Even though the power of desire is clearly at work.
The resistance was formidable.
I’m crying.
The backflow of magical energy that had been calmed down became serious again.
‘These guys aren’t normal either. Subdue it in one go.’
This is the moment when Taehyun tries to strengthen his skills.
Tiring.
[Some of the enormous magic power has been absorbed. A huge power awakens.]
[New skill True Blood (SSS) has been registered.]
‘…!!’
Only Taehyun noticed the changes in his body.
The magic power of the Archdukes that had been mixed up in their bodies began to be rearranged again.
It was found that their resistance accelerated the time for digesting Igmun’s magic power.
“Be thankful too.”
Igmun’s power is absorbed.
There was no need to look at the status window.
Tiring.
[Skill True Blood (SSS) has been activated.]
Kwakwakwakwa.
Kiiiiing.
Next to the magic gemstone made from the heart of the great devil.
Another magic stone began to be created.
“…!!”
Taehyun wasn’t the only one who felt the change this time.
The red eyes of the five highest species were shaken by the power radiating beyond their bodies.
The Valkyries seemed to be equally shocked.
[…!!]
[How…]
[Humans…]
Eir’s reaction was the most impressive.
Devlin’s power that caused her to struggle.
Taehyun’s current state is not about imitating that power through all kinds of skills.
Because it was truly bloodshed itself.
It was a tense battle of power.
In an instant, the initiative passed to Taehyun.
“It’s time for punishment.”
Tiring.
[Skill Gate Apostle (SSS) has been activated. The location is not specified. Coordinates are not searched.]
A medium-sized gate was created.
It was an ordinary moving gate with no coordinates entered.
“Is this enough?”
[Of course.]
A chain of brilliance was created in Skaarl’s hands.
The created chain instantly bound the five highest-ranking servants, including Verona.
[This is the end of the contract, Kim Tae-hyun.]
“It’s a shame.”
This is the moment when Gunne and Skal Eir are about to push the monsters through the gate, leaving behind Taehyun’s greeting.
[Contractor!!]
Taehyun hurriedly escaped from Rosaria’s urgent cry.
To that place.
Wedge!!
A huge blood sword passed by.
“…!!”
By a narrow margin, the blood sword was stuck in Skaarl’s chest.
[Cough…]
[Skaarl!!]
Gunne tried to pull out the blood sword that pierced Skaarl’s armor.
But just by holding it.
Tsuzzzzzzzz.
[…!!]
The magic power contained in the blood sword absorbed the brilliance of the two Valkyries.
Gunne hastily took his hand off the sword.
[No one. It is impossible to escape from the realm of the original ghost.]
It was an insidious and eerie voice.
Igmun approached, radiating his ferocious murderous spirit.
They had finally broken through Rosaria’s defense line.
Now that the bet is over, there is no reason for him, the Grand Duke, to keep the Valkyries alive.
Even more so if those Valkyries are trying to take their top class.
[Igmun…]
[Damn monster…]
Gunne and Eir radiated brilliance.
The Holy Spear Longinus was held in their hands.
Taehyun also quickly stepped back while holding the dragon slayer sword.
But it seems like he’s not interested in that attitude.
Jerk. Jerk. Jerk.
Igmun passed them by and looked down at his people, wrapped in the Chains of Radiance.
They did not dare to look into Igmun’s eyes and lowered their red eyes.
[Veronese. Turan. Balzac. Robben. Shula. Raise your head.]
[Lord of blood….]
[I will wash away my sins with death.]
They acknowledged their mistake and waited for action.
Not only was he fooled by other princes, but his subordinates were also fooled by humans.
If it were a normal Igmun, it would have been enough to cut off his head in one go with a blood sword.
[The original spirit has not yet permitted you to die.]
Ssssss.
The dark blue magic power was absorbed by Igmun.
Just by radiating power, the spell of desire was destroyed.
[good. Go and get the heads of those damn Valkyries.]
Puhwaaaak.
The blood field unfolded once again.
The four highest species attacked the dying Skaarl and the two Valkyries holding holy spears.
Saving one’s life is no longer important.
I could feel their eagerness to sacrifice their heads, even if it meant bloodshed.
Igumoon turned around and met Taehyun’s red eyes.
[Kim Tae-hyun. You are testing the original spirit’s patience.]
“Patience. “It’s an important virtue.”
[Contractor.]
Rosaria came and stood next to Taehyeon.
It looks like the battle was fierce.
Every part of my body was a mess.
“It looks dangerous.”
[joy. Not to that extent. The contractor doesn’t look normal.]
She asked worriedly at the blood-red magic emanating from Taehyun’s body.
You know it.
The Archduke’s magic power is not something that can be absorbed in a short period of time.
No matter how powerful the key is, humans are still humans.
If it wasn’t completely controlled, it wouldn’t end in regurgitation.
That’s it.
[Hehehe.]
Jormungand walked out from inside the Temple of Blood.
[Kim Tae-hyun. You really ruined the stage in an unexpected way.]
[Contractor, step down.]
Rosaria hid Taehyun behind her.
Against two archdukes.
Because Taehyun right now is nothing but a hindrance.
“Hold on just a little longer.”
While you can summon Typhon.
Rosaria did not know its meaning.
Her tentacles fluttered as if in response.
[Rosaria. If you deal with Igmun here, all of your favorite tentacles will wither away.]
[If this is nonsense, stop it.]
Rosaria responded as if she didn’t care.
[I must keep my promise.]
Jormungand’s Odd Eye flashed.
at the same time.
Tiring.
[‘Pledge of Summoning: Jormungand’ has been concluded.]
[The magic power of the summoning skill Jormungand (SSS) changes.]
‘This….’
That wasn’t the end of the message.
[Let me give you a gift.]
Tiring.
[Skill Blood Rush (SSS) has been changed to Skill Deep Sea Rush (SSS).]
[Skill Eyes of the Highest Species (SSS) has been changed to Eyes of the Watcher (SSS).]
“…!!”
The backflow of magical energy that had barely subsided arose once again.
It felt like a huge wave of magical power was churning through my body.
[Kkkkkk. Don’t worry. I will deal with Igmun appropriately.]
Jormungand said that and opened his blue magic.
At the Temple of Blood.
The devil has been summoned.
* * *
[What a mess.]
That was Erebos’ assessment as he watched the battle between the three princes.
Rosaria and Jormungand were able to catch Igmun’s rampaging attacks, maintaining a delicate balance.
[Brother. It would be best not to get caught in that gap.]
Erebos said that sincerely.
I’m worried.
I wonder if Taehyun is going to disappear because of his reckless behavior.
Taehyeon, who was sitting cross-legged, did not have the energy to respond as he was trying to control the magic of Igmun and Jormungand that were colliding inside him.
Gilper, who had been quietly observing the situation, opened his mouth.
[Kim Tae-hyun. It seems that this is the end of Bonma’s companionship.]
Taehyun nodded with his eyes closed.
Gilfer is still a major evil belonging to Beelzebub’s group.
If they become more involved, it will become insufficient to explain them as the Great Evil, even in the name of information gathering.
Okay.
Gilfer spread his huge wings.
[Good luck.]
She quickly left the Temple of Blood.
All that remained were Erebos and the seven elders.
They waited for Taehyun’s regurgitation to subside, keeping their eyes on the battle between Valkyrie and the four highest species.
10 minutes.
That was how long it took for Taehyun to force the regurgitation to subside.
[sibling. What are you going to do?]
Erebos asked again.
“The battle has stopped. There is no need for you to get involved in either side of the fight.”
The elders breathed a sigh of relief.
A battle of this unbelievable scale was such that even elders had to consider themselves lucky that their lives were spared.
[What about brothers?]
“My situation is a little different.”
Taehyun held the dragon slayer sword.
Fazizik.
As a thunderbolt flowed, the ‘Element of Origin’ was activated.
“Let’s test it out before calling Typhon.”
Newly gained strength.
[You’re crazy. Even if my father is here, against those guys…]
I can’t guarantee victory.
Erebus swallowed those words.
Taehyun didn’t know what it meant.
“If possible, it would be better to say that it is challenging.”
Tiring.
[Skill Energy Drain (SSS) has been activated.]
Taehyun once again thrust the magic chain into the seven elders who had barely recovered their strength.
He seems resigned now.
The seven elders did not reject Taehyeon’s skills.
Kiiiii –
With a shattering roar, seven Yeouiju were created.
It was a technique that was possible thanks to the dedication of the seven elders who generously poured out their magic power even though they were shaking.
[Brothers are such cruel people.] He
feels fortunate that he is not a dragon and that he can maintain his position as a brother.
Erebos muttered.
