chapter 41
41 – A Night in Hyperion Castle – 6
“Ha…Ha…Ha…”
Lee Seo-yoon was running inside the Hwangseong. It doesn’t matter where this place is. For now, running away is the priority.
-…Run away immediately, Lee Seo-yoon.
Lee Seo-yoon’s eyes flashed red as the image of Irina, who had a spleen expression on her face and blocked her mixed flames with an ominous energy, came to mind.
‘Haa..Haa.. Seojun or…Alex…..Where did he go…?’
Thanks to the aura of her mixed flame, Lee Seo-yoon unknowingly left Lee Seo-joon alone and ran away alone. Fortunately, however, it was completely out of the range where the aura of mixed flames could be felt.
“Whoops…”
“..Who… Are you?”
At that time, a large man appeared at the end of a dark hallway.
“….. Mr. Alex…?”
“Ha ha! Seoyoon! Here you are.”
Alex approached Seoyoon Lee with a sinister smile.
“Come over here. I know a safe place.”
“…I don’t want to follow you.”
I could tell that Lee Seo-yoon wasn’t an idiot, and that Alex was having very impure thoughts. Alex must have noticed that too, so he frowned in an instant, lowered his head, and let out a sigh.
“Haaa…That’s really bothering me. Don’t be too expensive.”
“…What do you want from me…?”
“What do you want?”
Alex laughed sinisterly at Seoyoon Lee’s question, and she licked her lips with her tongue as she slowly indulgedly scanned her from her feet to her head with dirty eyes.
“Isn’t it obvious? A man wants only one thing from a woman.”
“……Go away. I’ll call the guards.”
“How? All the troops must have rushed to the Constellation Palace right now? hehehe… Let’s just go easily… Just give it to me twice… No, three times a week and I’ll keep loving you.”
Alex slowly walked towards Lee Seo-yoon, taking her small dagger out of her back pocket.
“Wave!”
“Huh!”
Lee Seo-yoon quickly pushed Alex away using the lowest level magic wave of the wind attribute to block Alex’s approach.
However, the waves were magic that only pushed back the opponent, and there was almost no damage, so she had to think about the next attack method quickly. However, it was impossible for Lee Seo-yoon, who found it difficult to attack even monsters with killing magic, to be able to use magic with high killing power against her humans.
“I…Go away…!”
“Whoops…. It’s violent, but the more you do it, the more pleasant it is when you conquer it.”
Alex didn’t walk slowly anymore. Knowing that if she relaxed like before, she would be hit by her wave again and pushed away, so she quickly moved her feet and ran toward Seo-yoon Lee.
“Oops…! [Enchant Circle]..! Pulse..!”
Lee Seo-yoon was taken aback by Alex, who was running faster than expected, and used her unique ability, [Enchant Circle], To shorten the chanting time and activate the wave much faster than before.
However, Alex was not the kind of person who would accept that.
“Sum!”
“What?!”
Alex took out the small shield he had hidden behind her back and easily blocked Lee Seo-yoon’s waves. Due to Alex’s unique skill [Shield of Protection], When using a shield, there was a correction effect, so Lee Seo-yoon, who had a low level, was not an opponent that could be overcome with only the lowest level magic wave.
Thanks to this, Lee Seo-yoon fell to the floor after being pushed by Alex who approached in an instant.
“Kyaaah?!”
“hehehe… The way she screams is so beautiful…”
Alex laughed evilly as he thrust the dagger into Lee Seo-yoon’s neck as he fell on the floor.
“Stay still. As the situation is, it will be over soon.”
“Eup…Up!!”
Alex covered Lee Seo-yoon’s mouth with his large hand and held Lee Seo-yoon’s right arm with the other hand.
“Okay… The princess will be killed by that monster, so I’ll have to use you too, it’s a pity. It’s a pleasure when a woman like the princess treats you like a slave and f*cks you… Do you?”
“Eup! Eup!!”
Lee Seo-yoon quickly took out a small bead from her pocket using her left hand, which was still free.
Then, she began injecting magical power into her orb.
Puong-!
“Huh? What is this?”
Alex noticed that mana was spreading around him due to the strange orb that Seoyoon Lee activated. But I didn’t think it was a big deal and passed it on.
For Alex, who had only been in another world for less than a month, he did not think that mana spreading around him would be a big problem.
“hehehe…Then shall we begin?”
Alex smiled sinisterly and began to undress himself. Lee Seo-yoon tried to resist as much as possible, but due to the 1.5 Times difference in his strength stat, he couldn’t move at all.
“First, a simple top…”
At that moment, an ominous and intense energy was felt from above the sky.
However, Alex, who is not sensitive to mana, did not notice, and Lee Seo-yoon was the only one who noticed the ominous mana.
“Eup…Up…?”
“Huh? What’s wrong with this b*tch all of a sudden?”
Alex didn’t notice the presence above the sky, so he questioned Lee Seo-yoon, who suddenly showed a strange reaction.
“Why did you suddenly become so calm…”
f*ck-!
“Uh…?”
At that moment, Alex looked at the purple spear that appeared through his abdomen with his eyes wide open.
The purple spear was discoloring Alex’s abdomen in a dark color, full of ominous mana.
“..f*ck…?”
“Who are you putting your hands on for this bastard to search?”
At that moment, as Alex heard the voice of a strange man, his vision went dark in an instant and he collapsed on the floor.

(A few minutes ago)
Kwaang-!!
“Sir…..! It’s annoying…”
“Thank you for the rave reviews!”
I continued to fire Suzaku’s flames (void mana + Veronica’s buff) toward the mixed flames.
Contrary to my expectations, mixed flames were quite weak against Suzaku’s flames. I’m sure he’s a magician who uses fire, so I thought Suzaku’s flame wouldn’t be of much use…
-It is true that the flames used by the king are the flames of divine beasts. It is the highest concept fire except for the void fire.
‘Is there such a thing as a void spark? Something must have leaked.’
-Since there is a flame of chaos, there must be a flame of emptiness as well.
For a moment, I was very interested in the flame of the void, but I quickly regained my composure and was wary of mixed flames.
However, until now, the attacks of the mixed flames hadn’t worked on me at all. The flame was blocked by [Suzaku’s Fire], And all of the chaotic mana was extinguished by Veronica’s black mist.
In fact, there was no damage to the protective shield at all, except for the one that was cut by Veronica’s death.
‘But there’s nothing wrong with being careful. They must have other means of attack.’
Confusion is level 93, meaning it has 10 unique abilities. He must have a means of attack other than the flames of chaos.
-No, my king. Starting at level 90, each level gives a new unique ability, so there must be 13 to be exact.
‘…..Thirteen? Really?’
-That’s right, my king, and that also gives you one higher concept ability.
I don’t know what the higher concept abilities mean, but you mean they give you super-powerful abilities, right?
-It’s similar. So, if the mixed flames are sincere, the king will surely be defeated.
‘No, then why did you tell me to attack?!’
-You think I’m wearing a mask for no reason?
‘Oh! Do you have any plans?’
-Whoops…Of course.
According to Veronica’s words, I’ll take care of it for you if I fight moderately and start to use all my strength.
So you’re just going out now? If you’re going to deal with it yourself anyway, there’s no point in me fighting!
-No, my king. What I’m trying to do now is ‘marketing’, in terms of the king’s home planet Earth.
‘….Marketing..?’
-That’s right, right now, it’s marketing to the royal castle attendants, knights, and princesses that the king personally dealt with a level 93 monster….
No f*cking need to?
-Haa… This is why a loyal servant is tired. But what can I do? It is the servant’s job to establish the king’s authority.
‘Okay, can you handle the chaos mana properly? It’s just a little bit of a protective shield?’
-It’s enough to refill it anyway
Can you refill the crazy 100,000 shield? Also, the deceased is different.
-Above all, I didn’t say anything, but they’re setting up a barrier right now.
‘Barrier? Suddenly what…?’
-To put it simply, it is a barrier that completely disables emotions.
Is there such a thing? But why haven’t you used it until now?!
-It took a while to install. So, in the meantime, the king has to take his time.
‘After all, it’s marketing, and you just put me on to make time to set up barriers, didn’t you?’
-It’s similar.
When did you say you were a loyal subject? Just open your mouth and the lies will automatically come out.
“You… Are annoying…!”
“Is that a compliment?”
As time passed, Horn Yeom seemed to get annoyed and began to use his new ability while distorting his face.
“…Go…[Envy]…!”
“Wow?!”
At that moment, the energy felt in the body of the mixed flames became more intense, and at the same time, the firepower of the flames of chaos began to grow stronger.
-Oh, you must have the Seven Deadly Sins. Isn’t this really a bonanza, to use earth terms?.
‘No, what the f*ck, the speed at which the shield is cut is f*cking right?!’
As soon as Conflict Flames used [Envy], The flames of chaos began to cut away the shield at a tremendous speed.
Is this okay?
-It’s the effect of [Envy]. It reduces the opponent’s magic resistance to 0 and at the same time makes the caster immune to magic. Thanks to that, even my black mist can no longer block the chaos mana.
‘Isn’t that a f*cking scam?!’
Basically, magic had the disadvantage of being deformed and weakened when the distance was increased or when it was strongly influenced by other mana. For example, if you use magic towards the flames that emit thick chaos mana, all magic except void magic will be engulfed in chaos mana, reducing its power by half.
However, [Enticer] Ignores all the effects and at the same time ignores the opponent’s durability stat and puts magic into it!
‘…By the way, [Envy], Where do you think I saw it…?’
– Don’t you know? Isn’t it the ability that the king had when he selected the [Evil Eater] At the special point shop?
‘Ah…..’
Come to think of it, there were about 6 other options when choosing the [Evil Eater]…? But the system said that if I didn’t choose [Evil Eater], The system would fall behind with a 100% chance, so I had no choice but to choose [Evil Eater]…
-Well done, I’m sure the king wouldn’t be here now if he hadn’t chosen [The Devourer].
Isn’t it? So can you refill the shield? Now there are only about 10,000 left?!
-It’s okay. Now that the barrier installation is complete.
At that moment, the black mist that had surrounded me gathered in one place and Veronica, a black-haired beauty with a model figure, appeared. She was, of course, wearing a grotesque mask on her face.
“The king doesn’t mind just watching. I’ll take care of it myself.”
“…Really just watch?”
“Let it be.”
To be honest, I didn’t know exactly how strong Veronica was, so I thought the current situation was very precious.
Think about it. Veronica is level 94, mixed flame is level 93, the status itself must be similar. So there will definitely be an even battle going on, that is, we may be able to see Veronica’s strength today.
“…You…Can’t…”
Then, while staring at Veronica, who suddenly appeared, the mixed flame distorted her face like a demon, as if she realized something about her.
“She wears a mask, but do you recognize it too?”
“You… You… You… I… Will… Kill…! I’ll kill…!”
“Do it if you can.”
Honyeom glared at Veronica with eyes as if he were looking at her enemy, as if he already knew Veronica.
Veronica looked at such a mixture as if she was having fun.
“Die!!”
“The flow of mana is too messy because of the anger.”
Veronica murmured quietly as she reached out her hand to the soul flames that fired chaos sparks like a storm.
“Night Fog.”
At that moment, Veronica’s outstretched hand began to frantically spray her black mist.
The black mist emitted by Veronica instantly enveloped and extinguished the flames of chaos spewing out of the flames, and began to purify all the chaotic mana surrounding it.
“Ugh…! Just like last time…Again…Again…!”
“Hmm… This time, ‘her’ is not there, so she can’t even put her to sleep again… What should I do…”
“I will kill you…! I will kill you!!!”
“Don’t be too violent.”
The flames spewed out more and more violent flames of chaos, but all of them were extinguished by Veronica’s black mist.
“Is it over? There’s still more to come.”
“Profit…!”
Confused when all of her own attacks were blocked, the mixed flame used her new ability.
“[Nemesis of Revenge]!”
“Ohh…. He had that ability, too.”
Even when Veronica saw that her aura was amplified more powerfully by her ability used by her mixed flame, she relaxed with her arms crossed as if she were on a tour of her destination.
“Lord… Kills me…!!!!”
“Tsk, isn’t it because you use abilities you can’t handle?”
The mixed flame began to scream as if she was insane, exposing the whites in her eyes at the same time as blood vessels sprouted all over her body.
“KILL aaa!!!”
“Your vengeance against me must have been deeper than I thought.”
Veronica looked at her mixed spirits with pity and stretched out her hand towards her as she ran towards her.
“[Nyx World].”
In that moment, the world began to change.
