Chapter 2246 – 2246. Rezo

Crumbling.

Blue lightning struck Rezo’s head from the pitch-black night sky.

Rezo was fine. The lightning slipped from the top of his head to the side, seeped into the ground, and disappeared.

It was not a meaningless attack. Because I could see with my own eyes what its power was.

“He stores ghost-type monsters in his body and uses them. The witch doctor also learned necromancy.”

“It’s not necromancy, it’s a type of voodoo.”

“Isn’t voodoo about dealing with zombies?”

“Zombies or ghosts… There is no difference in being dead.”

Rezo took something out of his arms. It was a voodoo mask carved out of wood. Ghosts appear around the masked guy.

Ghost.

A monster that hunters are reluctant to deal with.

Grade C and lower can be dealt with easily, but even if it is Grade B or higher, it becomes quite difficult, so much so that there are even exorcism hunters who specialize in dealing with ghosts.

‘But the ghosts around Rezo… ‘I think it’s level A or higher.’

Rezo points his finger at me. The ghosts rushed in all at once.

‘I have the perfect item to deal with them.’

Wear white leather gloves with wings and a mace drawn on the back of the hand.

These are the Heretic Inquisitor’s gloves obtained as a reward after conquering the Rainbow Fruit Dungeon in the past. An item that has been strengthened with the Gwangmyeong Ascension Road, but has rarely had a chance to be used. The effect is to bestow Celebretina’s sacred power on the object for 10 minutes once every 24 hours. In other words, it is a Holy Enchant.

Instead of reverse-summoning and re-summoning Hualien Blade, I summoned Storm Breaker and converted it into the form of a sword.

‘The Hwaryeonbido has the ability to strengthen attributes, but it rebels against divine power.’

It was absurd to rebel against divine power despite being strengthened by God, but it was unavoidable.

“It is a divine power that is the opposite of a ghost!”

I swung a sword shining brightly with divine power at the ghosts. The effect was amazing. Even if it was just grazed by the blade, its shape became distorted, and it began to slowly disappear.

Is it because the ghosts were slaughtered so easily? Rezo invited the ghosts back into himself.

“Ghost. Do you consider poor souls nothing more than monsters?”

“You are the one who pampers those poor souls. “What kind of bullshit are you going to say again?”

“I made a contract with them through due ceremony. “Do you Koreans also hold a similar ceremony every year?”

“Similar ritual? What are you talking about?”

“Ancestral rites. It is a ritual where you worship ancestral spirits.”

“We don’t do it at our house these days.”

I raised my sword and leaped at him. It fell straight to the floor. My body suddenly became heavy. It didn’t feel like I was being pulled by gravity. The body itself became heavy. This was a curse.

“Okay? Too bad. “I tried to call your ancestors, but the descendants are ungrateful.”

“Inooooom! Seong Yujin!!”

A shout rang out from above. I raised my head in surprise. There was a young-looking old man there.

I was astonished. This is because my grandfather passed away due to high blood pressure when I was in middle school.

“Ha, grandpa?!”

“Rezo is a precious person who will soothe our souls! Can’t you be polite! “I never taught you like that!”

I jumped up from my seat.

“You’re fucking old man! If you’re going to rummage, I’ll hand over some of my belongings! “Don’t show up and be damned when you’re left without any assets!”

“Hey, you guy! What kind of manner of speaking is that to your grandfather? I am your grandfather! Did your mother teach you that?!”

“You fucking bastard. My family has held ancestral rites several times… ! At this point, it’s time for him to appear in a dream and hint at the lottery numbers! Well met. “If you want to eat ancestral rites in the future, please tell me your lotto number!”

“This guy doesn’t even know the topic!!”

“The theme is Niimi!”

A sword full of divine power was stabbed into her grandfather’s chest.

“Click ah ah ah!”

The grandfather’s ghost disappeared just like that. I spat on the floor and glared at Rezo. Rezo had a somewhat stupid expression.

“Modification doesn’t work. I don’t know how they knew what my grandfather looked like and tried to trick me… There’s no way my long-dead grandfather suddenly appears.”

“… No, he is your grandfather.”

“I would have said that modifications don’t work. There is no way you can bring back the soul of someone who died a long time ago.”

“I stayed in hiding on this land for 10 years. Did you really think that you just spent your time doing nothing? This body was the son of a shaman, and he also happened to be interested in the indigenous beliefs of this land. For the first few years, I also studied shamanism. It is possible to temporarily summon the soul of someone who died a long time ago if the conditions are met. Just like my grandfather who was stabbed to death by your sword just now.”

“That was your real grandfather?!”

“Okay. “You are a traitor who killed my grandfather.”

“You are trying to shake my mentality with nonsense. If that was really my grandfather… You must have told me the lottery numbers. At the very least, he would have told me about stocks that would be a hit.”

“Just because it’s a soul doesn’t give it special power. “Because I don’t have a body, I become even more helpless.”

“Your trick won’t work. That old man didn’t tell me the lottery numbers! There will be no ancestral rites from now on!”

“You crazy bastard. I feel sorry for him for having someone like you as his grandson. “Do you see your sword here in front of me?”

“Don’t touch Hualien Bido Island. “It is more important than his grandfather.”

“… The stronger the attachment to an object, the more likely it is to become a medium for curses. This sword in particular has special powers. I can see your affection for this knife. “This sword will kill you.”

Rezo stretched out his hand and grasped the hilt of the sword.

It’s so bad!

Red sparks fly out and throw Rezo’s hand away. Rezo’s complexion hardened.

“How much will you do? “It’s more than I could imagine.”

“It’s too precious for someone like you to touch it. Come, Hualien Monument.”

After countersummoning, summon again. I held Hualien Blade and Storm Breaker in both hands.

Holding hands.

Blue thunderbolts flew from Storm Breaker, and red thunderbolts flew from Hualienbido.

I resonated with two thunderbolts. The sound of thunder rumbles and its power increases.

Crumbling.

Noecheonryu (雷天流) Thundermyeong (雷鳴).

The lightning flashed and brightened up the surroundings.

“People think of curses as something negative. But just as poison can become medicine, curses also depend on how they are used.”

Rezo took off his jacket. There were intricate tattoos drawn on his body. The tattoo wriggled as if it were alive. I knew those tattoos were a curse.

“Lee Yeon-sook fights with dozens of barriers wrapped around her body. They use the barrier as armor and wield it as a weapon, so it is called barrier armament. There is no reason why I can’t do it. It’s not a barrier, it’s a curse… “I will become a cursed weapon.”

Rezo, with dozens of curses wrapped around his body, approaches with his fists clenched. That pressure is not normal.

‘A curser who fights in close combat? You’re hitting the nail on the head. Really.’

The good news is that Rezo’s steps and the way he holds his fists are very clumsy. It was clear that he had little experience in close combat.

[Use moment. Stacks remaining: 11]

Instead of avoiding him, I rushed forward.

He pretends to swing a sword and a sword and explodes a thunderbolt amplified by resonance. A thunderbolt explodes and for a moment my vision is taken away. Relying on my senses, I swung Hualien Blade and Storm Breaker in different directions.

Kaaaaa!

The attack was blocked. The giant human figure wearing armor that appeared above Rezo’s body blocked my attack with a sword and a sword in each hand.

“What is that again?”

“It’s the general.”

“Fuck. “There are so many different things!”

The general seemed to seep into Rezo’s body. Rezo’s momentum changed drastically. A man who knew nothing about martial arts turned into a warrior who had experienced all kinds of hardships. A warrior with skills beyond that of a master. Before I knew it, he had a sword and a sword in both hands and countered my attack.

Kaaaaa!

The weapons crossed, and a shock wave was created. My strength couldn’t hold on and I fell back. In terms of physical ability, the opponent was slightly more dominant.

‘Do I have the physical ability? Against witch doctors?’

It was shocking. It’s so shocking that I want to throw it all away.

But I calmed down when I saw blood flowing from its mouth and nose.

“There is no price for a witch doctor to fight like that. It’s eating away at my life.”

“… That’s what a curse is. A powerful and dangerous force at the same time. But it’s okay. Because the result was obtained. Can’t you hear the screams of the dead?”

Immediately after, an ear-piercing scream was heard.

Kyaaaaa!

Where did you hear that?

I rolled my eyes and realized that it was a sound coming from inside my body. When I first collided with him, he possessed a ghost in my body.

Ghostly hands protruded from all over my body. Shoulders, waist, thighs, calves, abdomen… All the protruding hands become longer and head towards my neck.

Grumbling.

Blue flames erupted from the fox badge given to Mi-ryeong and burned the ghost’s hands. The fox badge shattered and disappeared as if it had completed its job. I sighed and then realized.

“… Was it not a ghost but a curse?”

“Is there really a need to distinguish between the two? It looks like he had something similar to an amulet to ward off evil… “You can’t stop all my curses with something like that.”

It was just as he said.

The curse still remained in my body. My head was dizzy, my vision was shaking, and my body was heavy. The tips of his fingernails are cracked and his skin itches. I feel like I have athlete’s foot on my feet, and my knee joints are creaking and painful. I’m hungry and want to drink water. Furthermore, I also want to have sex.

These are all effects of the curse. I don’t know how many curses are gnawing at my body. It probably won’t last long.

“The suggestion I made earlier is still valid.”

“… Originally, I was going to hold out longer and take my time… My thoughts changed. From now on, I will do my best to kill you.”
