Chapter 143 – Defense of Jeju Island (2)
‘What are the demons aiming for?’
This is the most important issue.
There is nothing more important than knowing the enemy’s intentions.
However, doubts began to arise as to whether the demons had a proper purpose.
‘Wasn’t he targeting the students?’
It was an obvious guess, but the mines didn’t bother targeting the hotel.
They were destroying cities, not targeting ordinary people.
Is it intended to induce distraction?
“What do you think?”
“I don’t know.”
I asked Yuri who was holding my waist while stepping on the motorcycle, but the answer that came back was not very welcome.
“Is that so…”
“Wouldn’t it be okay if I just held it where I could see it? No matter what you’re plotting, just kill them all and that’s it.”
That was right.
It would be enough if all the demons who were plotting something died.
But…
“Would that be?”
Udo-myeon and Chuja-myeon are home to many demons, but they are present all over Jeju Island.
3 times the area of Seoul.
It was by no means small.
“Then what are you going to do? If you don’t have a good idea, I have a good idea, would you like to hear it?”
Yuri rested her chin on my shoulder and said.
“What.”
“Copy the spirit…”
“Stop talking nonsense. I wonder if now is the time to get some energy at leisure.”
“Chi… You said you had a lot of fun last night.”
The moment she tried to question how she knew that, the fact that she was a succubus came to mind.
“Did you see it?”
“Yeah, just curious. My libido has decreased tremendously… Maybe?”
“…Don’t see me next time?”
I decided to just step on the pedal.
The destination is Seogwipo City.
Due to the location of the Hunter Association, most Hunters are fighting the Mines in Jeju City.
Of course, there are shelters where citizens evacuated in Jeju City.
Yuri and I had a reason not to be noticed by other people as much as we used magic.
And after stepping on the pedal for a while, I started to feel the magic.
“Siwoo.”
“Yeah, I can feel it too.”
As I turned the steering wheel and headed towards the place where I felt demonic energy, I heard the sound of something breaking.
There, we saw a man who was destroying a building with his black demonic energy flowing like crazy, and we approached him.
“Oh, a colleague?”
Is it because we feel demonic?
He said it was quite nice to see us.
Roughly looking at the amount of demons, it was from the lowest to the lowest rank.
He wasn’t that strong.
“Yeah, have you been doing well?”
I decided to pretend to be the same devil while thinking of him as a colleague.
Since he even used his acting skill, he could easily be fooled.
“Of course. Do you see this? I did everything.”
I looked around.
What used to be the home of someone’s memories and life itself has become concrete fragments, rebars, and dust.
Also, the stores that would have been responsible for someone’s livelihood were collapsing.
“…Okay? That’s great.”
At my words, he laughed happily.
It was meant to be sarcastic, but I said it as if I were sincerely praising him for his acting skills.
“This is shit. Hunter? Those fuckers won’t be able to compete with me anymore?”
“I guess so. But why were you destroying the buildings? I became a demon a little while ago, so I couldn’t hear your orders.”
“Huh, were you a rookie? Of course, if you destroy buildings, demonic energy builds up.”
“…? Even with that, demonic energy accumulates?”
Someone had no way to build demonic energy if they did not catch the demon, but I wonder if only the people were comfortably gaining demonic energy.
A feeling of injustice arose for a moment, and he opened his mouth again.
“Heh heh… Listen carefully. I’ll explain it just once. Magi just accumulates when you do bad things.”
“… What?”
“Do evil. Whether you kill someone, rape someone, or destroy someone. Ah, but I told you not to attack ordinary people, so behave well.”
At that moment, the work in his right hand destroyed the magi building.
As if demonstrating.
‘In the game… No.’
At this point, there is no need to compare the game with reality anymore.
The world line was already twisted long ago.
“Hmm… I see, but why did the demons gather in Jeju Island?”
“Of course…”
The moment he opened his mouth, his body gradually turned to dust.
“Sir, fuck!?”
“… Ew, you bastard.”
Wasn’t recognizing it as an enemy a condition for the curse to activate?
Anyway, the demonic energy that had been raised to kill him subsided again, and I felt his demonic energy being absorbed.
Of course, it wasn’t an amount that would increase his stats.
“Lee Yuri.”
“Huh?”
I subtly called Yuri to pick up the magic stone.
“Give it to me.”
“… I thought you wouldn’t mind this.”
He gently scratched his left cheek with his index finger and passed the magic stone to me.
Trying to steal the magic stone of a demon that is now 20 times bigger.
I gave up on it, so I only watched it once.
“Is it okay if I catch the next mine?”
“As you please. But do you think you are more greedy for money than you think?”
“Of course. Isn’t money the best way to survive in the human world?”
Yuri said while curling her thumb and forefinger as if expressing money.
“Money is not everything.”
“Of course. But there was nothing else but money.”
“…”
What devil is so real?
Well, she was the one who decided to sit down in the human world because she hated the demon realm.
That much she must have studied about various things.
“Get on the motorcycle again.”
“Huh.”
Now that I have arrived in Seogwipo City, I activated my search skill.
A search skill covering a total area of 500 square meters.
All I could feel inside was one demon.
The energy was quite strong this time.
Will it be an intermediate level magician?
When I focused my exploration skills on him, he was randomly destroying buildings.
I stepped on the pedal and headed towards the mine.
It wasn’t too far.
And the magic stone fueled motorcycle was much faster than the real motorcycle, and it was okay to ignore the signal.
“He was the only one who searched with the search skill. Can you catch it alone?”
When I asked slightly mischievously, she frowned slightly.
“… No. That’s too much.”
Yuri looked at Mine from afar and said.
A demon weaker than a demon.
‘That’s why I was able to come to the human world.’
“Wouldn’t it be hard to do as you did?”
“Of course.”
It was clear that he, who was a low-ranking devil in the first place, was complacent, and if he was a middle-ranking devil, he would have known about the faces of her colleagues.
“Then let’s catch it together.”
“…Should we split it half and half instead?”
“Okay.”
Even though Laysha and Ayeong fought together, they couldn’t defeat the middle-level horse, Golden Sun, but the two of us would be able to defeat it.
‘If I think I’m going to lose, it’s okay if I jump out.’
And there was also a pendant of resurrection hanging around his neck.
“Let’s go.”
“Huh…!”
The other party hasn’t noticed us yet.
Of course, no tactic is as effective as a surprise attack.
He raised his demonic energy and used his skills and abilities at the same time.
Increase strength by 40
Increases Agility by 50
Increases stamina by 23
Increases durability by 7
Increases mana by 10
Increases mana regeneration by 2
Rise Threat Detection 3
After that, I used stealth and invisibility.
My presence disappeared and my form disappeared.
I used lightening.
His vision went dark for a while, but his reason was maintained by the ability of the Absolute Spirit.
Struggle was used.
An enemy stronger than me.
After all stats rose by about 30%, I activated instant acceleration and threat detection.
-Goes.
After telephoning Yuri, she clenched her fists and jumped at him.
I got closer to him, but he still couldn’t detect me.
And when he left about 6M distance from him.
“…!”
He looked at me with a surprised look on his face, and I moved my legs even faster to get Margie up and wrap my fist around him.
How to utilize my magic, which is quality over quantity.
He took up his mace and tried to swing it at me, but he couldn’t pinpoint my exact location.
He swung his fist and thrust it into his abdomen.
“Kwuugh…!”
He coughed up air
But it was not enough.
He punched his fist again, this time thinking of breaking another rib so he could cough up his blood.
But he is also an intermediate level.
He swung his heavy mace and his chains snapped.
Since it is a mace covered with demonic energy, if it is hit even once, a fatal wound cannot be avoided.
I activated instant acceleration again to dodge his mace.
The strength of a martial artist is that one’s own body is a weapon.
As long as there was no need to worry about weapons, there were no restrictions on their actions.
Dodging his mace, I bent down slightly and kicked his ankle.
“Kuu… This bastard…!”
However, he swung his mace again as if there was no damage yet.
This time, perhaps with more power, the mace was faster and heavier.
“Where!”
But I wasn’t alone.
A whip that came from Yuri’s direction caught his mace.
I didn’t miss the opportunity and kicked his ankle again.
“Ugh…! Such a joke…!”
He swung his arm once more, and the whip formed by Yuri’s demonic energy suddenly snapped.
The mace flew at me once again.
This time, the accuracy of how much I was able to pinpoint my location was quite high.
However, compared to Master Taesik, it was at the level of new blood.
He turned his body slightly and stamped his right ankle with the sole of his foot.
“Aww…!”
He staggered momentarily as if he had suffered quite a bit of damage.
F = MA
Force is mass multiplied by acceleration.
By manipulating the buff again, the strength stat increase increased from 40 to 50.
After giving strength to the feet covered with demons, I used instantaneous acceleration to aim for his ankles.
Ugh…!
An unpleasant sensation of crushing bones came from his feet.
“Keuuugh!”
He let out a scream of pain.
Yuri, who had regained his demonic energy, swung his whip.
The whip made of demonic energy tore his skin apart.
But he can also use magic.
He raised his demon spirit, fixed his broken ankle, and swung his mace.
“I’m sorry…”
The mace lightly grazed the ball.
How ignorant the design of the mace was, there were many sharp blades embedded in the iron ball.
Recalling the battle with Master, he did not miss the movement of his eyes.
It was still limited to predicting the opponent’s movements by looking at their eyes, but it was definitely effective.
Due to the ability to detect threats, a cool sensation settled down in my right ankle.
“Search!”
It swung the mace with full force in his arm, as if to repay him in kind.
However, with his ankle already broken, his movements were full of gaps.
When he lifted his arm, he approached him and thrust his fist into him once more.
“Turn off…!”
‘2.’
I felt the sensation of two ribs breaking.
He sensed that victory was imminent.
He thrust his fist into his chin and aimed for his broken right ankle.
When he hit the jaw, he lost his balance for a moment, and a strong shock occurred in the arms of Magi and Magi, who were impulsive.
However, the purity and strength of Magi was higher than mine.
Eventually, the demon holding him by the ankle dispersed and he collapsed.
“Kuh…! What are you guys doing!”
He cried out ferociously as he lay down on the floor.
“Are you Alpha?”
Anyway, I didn’t mean to explain to the guy who was going to die anyway.
He made a sharp awl made of demonic energy, and the awl flew into his head.
After he died like that, he turned to dust, and a little dark magic stone fell on the spot where he fell.
“After…”
I picked up the magic stone and put it in the dimensional pouch.
“Great job. Thanks to you, I won.”
It was clear that it would have been difficult to guarantee victory without the Magi’s whip that Yuri had used.
“… I think you would have won without me.”
She looked at me with a slightly uncomfortable expression and murmured softly.
