Regressing with the King’s Power - Chapter 508
Episode 508
: The masked man.
The eyes of the man who must have been a murderer seemed to widen for a moment, but then became smaller.
dump.
He knelt in front of Taehyeon, who was sitting cross-legged.
This is because the magical power of the skill ‘Ataraxia’ penetrates into the mind.
‘It’s barely this much.’
Originally, it would be possible to look through the other person’s memories as if they were placed in the palm of your hand.
Skillon, which was downgraded to E grade, could only collect fragmentary information.
The man’s name is Dokgo-jin.
He is 35 years old.
A famous assassin in the central plains of the Heavenly Demon Church…
suddenly.
Tiring.
[The target’s resistance increases.]
[The target’s resistance increases rapidly.]
‘Hmm…?’
The flow of information was interrupted by a message that suddenly appeared.
“Uh…ah…ah….”
From a pained moan to a scream.
From screams to shouts to cheers.
“Ka…ha…ah…!!”
The fighting spirit welling up in the man’s body began to resist ‘Ataraxia’.
This happened before Taehyun strengthened his skills.
‘The Eyes of the Dream King’ opened in a state of despair.
In that red light, I could see an intangible energy rising around the man.
‘It’s not magical power.’
A red haze.
An unknown energy that even Taehyun would have had a hard time grasping if it weren’t for the monster’s eyes.
Is that all?
The presence of a man who was only an SS-level player quickly soared.
SSS level.
It is a power comparable to the last one I met, Yoo Ah-young.
Of course, I don’t think she’s made any progress over the past five years.
It was not at a level that could be ignored.
Tiring.
[Skill Ataraxia (E) is cancelled.]
[Skill Ataraxia (E) cannot be used.]
[Cool time is measured. Time limit….]
Hwaaaah.
The haze seemed to be getting stronger, and then ‘Ataraxia’ was lifted.
‘The fact that the cooldown has come up means that the skill has been completely destroyed…’
Taehyun, who was still sitting cross-legged, instinctively tilted his head back.
Huh.
A brief moment.
A flashing blade passed by with an eerie sound.
There was no doubt that the attack was aimed at the uvula.
‘Look at this?’
I stood up as I saw the man widening the distance without any further attacks.
The man was breathing hard, as if he was suffering from the aftereffects of ‘Ataraxia’.
When I put my hand to my neck, red blood came out.
It’s not even a minor injury.
It was important that the attack of the person who could not escape mortality worked on Taehyun.
“That’s fun.”
Five years have passed since the turf war ended and all restrictions were imposed on Earth.
The unidentified assassin encountered in such a situation did not just destroy the skill, but also inflicted injuries on the fallen Archduke’s body.
How long has it been since we felt interested in the same ‘human’?
‘Elven. It looks like things won’t go as clearly as you think.’
Middle-earth will not be able to withstand Taehyeon’s presence, which has reached its full level.
I remembered the words of the Elven who said that even if Taehyun’s power was limited after his defeat, there would not be some change in time.
I checked the time that was counting at this very moment.
[Connecting dimensions does not simply mean an increase in existence. Race war is not limited to the Upper World or the Lower World.]
I remembered what Michael said just before crossing over to Earth.
‘Did that guy know?’
The dimensions of Middle-earth have already been connected.
In Middle-Earth, where the dimensions are integrated, people with enormous power have begun to appear.
Earth and Abyss.
You cannot freely move between the two worlds that come and go naturally.
Just like the King of the Underworld that I saw in my memory.
Taehyun also reached a similar level.
The corners of my mouth naturally rose.
I think that now is the beginning.
‘I guess now we’re at the same starting line.’
I burst out laughing in a lighthearted mood.
A man whose identity is not fully understood.
I looked at Dokgo-jin, the assassin of the Heavenly Demon Church.
I only read the memory briefly, but it was clear that he was not from this world.
“Are you the strongest in that world?”
In response to Taehyun’s question, the man muttered something, but it was not understood.
A language I have never heard of before or after regression.
It’s somewhat similar to Chinese, but I’m not sure about that either.
Sigh.
The man lifted the blade aimed at Taehyun’s neck.
It’s a disaster.
A red haze rose around the man who had completely escaped Ataraxia.
Looking at it now, the weapon he is holding doesn’t seem ordinary.
Because I am fully accepting the energy that arises in my body.
If you awaken the magic stone in your body, Ataraxia’s cooldown will be resolved quickly.
‘There are ways to find out information other than Ataraxia.’
And Taehyun was also a believer in that method.
I channeled the magical power within my body once again.
I felt confident.
A significant amount of dimensional integration would have been achieved without the need for any special effort.
The man in front of me is comparable to Yoo Ah-young of the past.
Dokgojin, a member of the Heavenly Demon Church, is the result.
“Of course I have no intention of talking.”
The feeling of survival mixed with speculation put pressure on my body.
It’s funny, but it’s not at a level where Taehyun can just ignore it now.
Tiring.
[Skill Stone Skin (E) has been activated.]
[Skill Stone Skin (E) has been strengthened.]
Clutter. Suddenly.
The first skill acquired through ‘predation’.
My body stiffened after using a low-level skill for the first time in a long time.
The body was further strengthened in order to engage in exploration warfare.
The tension from past national competitions rose.
He held out his hand without caring about the other person’s fate.
“This is Taehyun Kim.”
“….”
There was silence for a moment.
The man’s body moved quickly.
A movement that would have been missed if it were not for the eyes of the Dream Demon King.
Kakak.
A blade engulfed in red energy cut Taehyeon’s hand.
Kakak. Kakak. Gakkagak.
I cut my arms, neck, shoulders and head.
They all targeted blood vessels that could be considered human vital points.
Grumble.
Blood flowed from the area where the man’s sword had been stabbed.
He broke through a suit made of dragon scales and inflicted wounds on his own strengthened body.
It is a power that exceeds expectations.
“The type that focuses on speed rather than strength. Well, you can tell that much just by looking at the clothes.”
Kakak. Kakak. Gakkagak.
While he was talking quietly, the man’s blade scratched his body once again.
He thought that now was his opportunity as the opponent let down his guard.
It’s not a bad decision.
“It’s good that you aimed for a critical point. “Do you have any special skills?”
“….”
The man’s face hardened at his calm response.
Even minor injuries can become serious injuries if they accumulate.
The strong body that could hardly be called a human had significant scratches, and the blood flowing from various parts of the body could never be dismissed as a minor wound.
Still smiling?
“Would you like to check if there’s a certain level of determination?”
Taehyun’s red eyes were curved like a crescent moon.
“…!!”
The man tried to get out belatedly due to the sudden change in atmosphere.
Taehyun was faster in closing the distance.
Sigh.
“Where?”
I broke the wrist of the man holding the blade.
Wow.
I hear the sound of bones breaking, not breaking.
I could see moans leaking out from behind the mask and distorted gaze.
What happened right away was enough to impress even Taehyun.
Udddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddd.
The man rotated his body around the hand he was holding and kicked Taehyun in the neck.
The cervical vertebrae was hit precisely in an imperfect position.
Even for a decent tank, the current attack is dangerous.
Taehyun also felt a tingling sensation and swayed.
Tiring.
[The enhancement of skill Stone Skin (E) has reached its limit.]
[Magic power consumption is accelerating.]
Wow!!
I put more strength into the hand I was holding.
“sick.”
He placed his other hand on the embarrassed man’s solar plexus.
An ancient Chinese martial art that has not been used by humans in a long time.
Type 1 Balgyeong.
Boom!!
The man vomited blood along with the sound of bones breaking somewhere.
Even though red blood soaked his mask, the man was unable to escape.
Quad Deuk!!
Because he didn’t want to miss it, Taehyun strengthened the hand he was holding.
Type 2 Chongyeong.
Quang!!
“Kahak…!!”
Be it a god, a monster, or a human.
We have already confirmed that the screams made in pain are no different.
There was no difference even though he was a man from another dimension.
“Don’t be harsh.”
Type 3 Cheokgyeong Type 4 Seongyeong.
Kujik!!
The man’s arm, unable to withstand the continued attacks, was torn off.
“Cancellation of being on the same level as guild leader Yoo Ah-young. “Isn’t your tenacity terrible?”
Taehyun threw the man’s tattered arm to the side.
I took a new stance.
Type 5 penetroscope.
I hastily guarded with my only hand.
Kwaang!!!
It was impossible to prevent the rest of his arm from being torn off by five attacks.
* * *
I feel like my whole body is being crushed.
[Uhm…]
Tolkien opened his eyes with a groan.
Although he was once taken to the upper world and lived the life of a slave, he has mostly regained his status as a meister.
Although it is only insignificant compared to the battle-specialized archdukes, Tolkien is also a monster that can be called the highest species based on strength alone.
It could not be said that there were no aftereffects from crossing the gate.
My head was pounding and my whole body was heavy.
But that was only for a moment.
Boom!!!
As the roar continued to penetrate his ears, a gigantic being appeared in his mind.
10 heavenly realms.
Among them, the one that is evaluated as being closest to perfection.
Master of the 1st heaven.
[…Michael!!]
My clouded mind became clear in an instant.
Tolkien got up and looked around.
Taehyun said he would move to a dungeon dominated by the High Kraken, but all he could see was a forest.
It’s not the damn Fairy King’s territory, nor is it the personal space Michael created.
[What is this….]
I was out of my mind right after I met Michael.
Is that why?
It took me a moment to understand what was happening right before my eyes.
[Brothers…?]
Taehyun was almost trampling on ‘humans’.
[Why such a small piece…]
I tilted my head for a moment.
Tolkien’s anger grew.
The entire landscape was dyed red.
He began to look around with the Meister’s unique observational eye.
I could feel the magical power unique to the Sea Currents and the remnants of the Demon Sea.
This means that there is a High Kraken not far away.
Or maybe there was.
It was there then and it isn’t now.
[Did he handle it?]
Tolkien’s gaze turned to the human being trampled by Taehyun.
He is so devastated that it is a miracle he is still alive.
In the first place, it is absurd to ask humans who cannot regenerate to fight without arms.
Kwasik!!
Taehyun’s kick broke the man’s leg and he fell to his knees.
bang!!
The man’s head fell to the floor due to the subsequent kick.
Smirk.
The corners of Taehyun’s mouth rose.
[….]
Its appearance was no different from that of the fairy king who had been tormenting him.
[Hey brother. What is the situation now?]
“You’re awake?”
[Did he eliminate the High Kraken?]
“Well. “Let’s listen and judge for ourselves.”
Tiring.
[Skill ultra-fast regeneration (E) has been activated. Specify the target.]
[A huge force is at work.]
[Skill proficiency is insufficient.]
[Skill is activated in a limited way.]
The limbs of the man engulfed in magic are destroyed. It played slowly.
The pain of regeneration cannot be ignored as much as the pain of being torn apart.
The man let out a groan of pain.
“Do you feel like talking now?”
Taehyun makes eye contact.
Startle.
man.
Dokgo-jin, the famous assassin of Jungwon Moorim, hastily lowered his eyes.
Tolkien looked at that figure pitifully.
