Chapter 209

After shouting out loud, Yu-Seong confidently awaited Loki’s arrival and god’s heavenly punishment to descend on the immortal army. However, he was met with silence. Nothing changed.

Actually, to be precise, there were some obvious changes and not all was quiet. All of a sudden, the generals of death surrounded Yu-Seong while riding atop hideous-looking skeleton horses. They clutched their weapons and brandished them at Yu-Seong.

After hearing the sound of air being ripped apart and feeling an onslaught of killing intent approaching him, Yu-Seong’s eyes widened as he quickly contorted himself.

‘They’re going to launch another attack…’

It was not just one general of death either; all five were planning to attack him. On top of that, ghouls that crawled on the ground were also simultaneously launching their attacks at him.

What Yu-Seong had thought of as an opportunity quickly turned into a crisis. The situation had turned dire when Loki did not respond to his call to decimate the undead army.

‘Ugh, goddamn Loki!’?

Didn’t Loki say that she would come upon being called? Was his trust misplaced? Seething and swearing at Loki inwardly, Yu-Seong released a fully charged Wind Thunder Dragon God Art strike in all directions.

The weakest monsters surrounding him, such as the ghouls, zombies, and skeletons, collapsed from the Wind Thunder Dragon God Art strike’s lightning. He was now left to deal with the five generals of death.

After avoiding one of the generals of death’s sword strike, Yu-Seong was faced with another mace-wielding general of death.

Bang-!

The force of the mace strike was so strong that, when the mace hit the ground, pieces of stone soared into the air.

Despite feeling nervous, Yu-Seong managed to avoid the mace strike without much difficulty. Moreover, his reaction was not something that he had to consciously think about.

‘My body remembers.’

His body recognized and remembered how to avoid threatening auras. This was all thanks to the training that he had done with his teacher, Bak Ok-Rye.

The next attack was from a general of death who wielded a long spear.

‘This is easier!’

Yu-Seong knew how to read the spear’s movement. After all, he was already well versed in using a spear from his mastery of Cu Chulainn’s Magic Spear skill.

After Yu-Seong avoided the spear attack, the next general’s attack was not from a weapon. When he got closer to the generals of death to avoid the spear strike, another general of death jumped off his skeletal horse and swung his fist at him. At first glance, the punch seemed ordinary, but Yu-Seong’s instinct urgently shouted a warning at him.

‘If you avoid only what you see, you’ll get struck!’

With a sense of regret, Yu-Seong licked his lips and widened the distance between him and the generals of death.

Just as he made his hasty retreat, the punch extended by the punching general of death stretched all the way to Yu-Seong’s nose. Then, it contracted back like a rubber band.

‘What the heck…!’

If he had been a bit careless, he would have been hit in the head by the general of death’s fist. The only end he would then face would be collapsing on the ground while spilling blood.

Yu-Seong was momentarily taken aback by the unconventional attack, but he quickly caught his breath and calmed himself. If he had not regained his composure, a great ax strike swinging down toward his head from another general of death would have split his skull.

Once again, with a roaring sound, the ground shattered, and stone fragments flew upward. However, this was not the end. With the ax strike having cracked the ground where he had been standing earlier, Yu-Seong momentarily lost his balance and staggered.

Then, as if he had been waiting for such an opening, the sword-wielding general of death, who had launched the first attack, fiercely launched a follow-up attack.

‘This is dangerous…!’

Yu-Seong did not have enough time to counter with his spear. Inhaling sharply, he took out the gun he had hidden away near his waistband.

‘I’m not sure if this will work, but…’

Yu-Seong’s body reacted quicker than what his mind could process. At that moment, a flash of lightning burst out from the tip of his gun’s muzzle like a sudden flame and struck the sword-wielding general of death.

Yu-Seong had fired off a magic bullet, something he had learned from Jenny.

‘I thought it might be possible if I spread it out like magic…’

The result was fairly successful for a first attempt. When Yu-Seong landed on the ground and rotated in the air after firing off his magic bullet shot, he saw a mace and punch attack approaching him; he jumped forward without hesitation. He first dodged the stabbing spear attack before dodging the fist strike that followed right behind it.

He could not completely avoid the successive attacks, so a trickle of blood ran down his cheek from sustaining a minor injury. However, he was able to maintain a stable stance, so he immediately unleashed a Cu Chulainn Spearmanship move.

‘Raging Snake!’

Yu-Seong’s spear, which he wielded like a whip, moved geometrically and hacked away at the generals of death who were atop their skeletal horses. Black blood burst into the air, and soon, the generals of death stumbled onto the ground once their skeletal horses were wounded.

‘This is my chance…!’

Yu-Seong was focused on catching at least one general so that he could move on to the next. Ignoring the fist-wielding general, who was the first to regain his balance, Yu-Seong aimed for the ax-wielding general who had yet to regain his balance due to the heavy armor he wore.

‘He’s slow, but he presents the greatest threat.’

The ax-wielding general would not have presented much of a problem if Yu-Seong had to fight him one-on-one, but the ax-wielding general was burdensome when included in the generals’ joint attacks.

It was then when Yu-Seong realized why the map had been set up so that the five generals of death were clustered close together.

‘They were never meant to be defeated one-by-one.’

These generals of death had been created to launch a joint attack. The fist-wielding general of death had launched an attack without the help of his skeletal horse from the start; in other words, the generals of death were always meant to work together.

‘I’ll have to sustain some losses.’

If possible, Yu-Seong had to avoid sustaining bodily injury that could limit his mobility or fighting capability. Of course, there was no such area on his body. Wherever he eventually sustained injury, it would hurt, but Yu-Seong had to accept the loss to annihilate the ax-wielding general of death.

‘I’ll give them my flesh to cut their bones. Through a single Lance Charge…’

Right when Yu-Seong urgently pulled his arm back to launch an attack, the sword-wielding general of death, who had clearly been behind him moments ago, appeared in a flash in front of him.

‘What…?! Teleportation?’

It seemed as though every death knight had at least one special hidden ability. Belatedly realizing this fact, Yu-Seong sharply inhaled some air and avoided the general’s sword strike.

In the meantime, the ax-wielding general, who had regained his balance, raised his weapon again while emanating an eerie aura.

‘I’m too late.’

Yu-Seong made a helpless frown as he quickly rotated his spear. The moment he deflected the oncoming sword and fist strike, a long spear quickly approached his chest area as the sound of one foot slowly tearing through the air rang out.

‘He threw his spear like a javelin… I’m too late.’

Sharply inhaling once more, Yu-Seong gritted his teeth and braced himself for the inevitable pain that was to come. However, at that moment, he felt his Chakra draining away from his body as a purple magic circle appeared in front of him and blocked the thrown spear.

‘Huh?’

Perplexed as to what had happened, Yu-Seong soon saw a purple dragon rush out from a tear in his subspace.

“Ah, sorry, truly sorry. I’m a bit late because I had something to take care of.”

Loki spoke confidently, but Yu-Seong felt that she was acting shamelessly.

Regardless of whatever Yu-Seong thought about her, Loki raised her head with a relaxed gaze and an arrogant expression on her face. She then gave out a wild, maniacal laugh. “Anyway, this altered form of mine has appeared. Drum roll!”

***

Although Loki appeared through a tear in Yu-Seong’s subspace, the crisis situation on the battlefield did not change. The generals of death were still surrounding Yu-Seong, and the endless army of undead were fast approaching.

To make matters worse, Yu-Seong’s Wind Thunder Dragon God Art weapon had expired, reaching the end of its allotted use time.

‘My mana…’

Yu-Seong was also running low on Chakra. If more time passed in this state, it would be difficult for him to maintain Loki’s summoning.

“Why did you come so late?!”

“I told you; something came up.” Speaking calmly, Loki narrowed her eyes at Yu-Seong. “Anyway, you have that thing, right?”

When Loki finished speaking, Yu-Seong flinched as his facial expression subtly changed. He asked, “How do you know about that?”

“As I said, you are contracted with me. So, of course I know.”

With a smile, Loki spread her short arms out wide. Purple magic circles soon appeared once again in the air and easily blocked the oncoming attacks by the generals and undead soldiers.

However, unlike the first time it was used, the robustness of the magic circles was not as firm and reliable. Cracks were quickly appearing all over Loki’s hexagram magic circles.

“Hmm, hey you, mana tank. I’m lacking mana. Quickly, charge up my mana.”

“Shut up.”

Yu-Seong’s heart throbbed at the sheer amount of Chakra that was being consumed; however, he could only curse under his breath. Feeling dumbfounded, he reached inside his subspace and retrieved a transparent bottle that held a blue liquid. It was clearly evident how this item was supposed to be used.

‘Mana Potion. I never thought I’d be using such a rare thing like this here.’

It was not easy to obtain mana potions in the Tower of Heaven, so Yu-Seong felt a deep sense of loss. However, he had no other option.

‘Loki, this bastard.’

Inwardly, Yu-Seong spat out curses. Without any more hesitation, he opened the cap of the bottle and gulped down the potion. Immediately, a cold sensation made him shudder, and the painful sensation that gripped his heart earlier had completely disappeared. Soon, he felt his nearly depleted mana levels filling up.

Yu-Seong’s and Loki’s eyes both widened simultaneously at the sudden change.

“You… Mana, no wait, Chakra? What is this feeling of transcending your capacity?”

“I don’t know either. What is going on? This is scary.”

The mana energy converted into Chakra and began to swell within Yu-Seong. It was to the point of almost bursting his fully saturated body.

“Is it the God’s Chakra…? Is it because of the efficiency of that skill? That Destruction God… He gave you a pretty nice present.” Loki smiled at the unexpected situation and nodded with a satisfied expression. She said, “If I can use this much energy, I can have a little more fun with this body.”

Subsequently, the mana that had filled Yu-Seong’s body to the brim flowed into Loki in a clear, visible form. Then, Loki, in the form of a baby Dragon that was no larger than a human-sized head, began to grow little by little. Eventually, a ferocious-looking horn sprouted from the tip of Loki’s nose, and a pair of wings stretched out from her body.

Having grown to a size that was larger than two adult men put together, Loki said, “Hey, Yu-Seong.”

“Huh?”

“You need to say the activation words.”

“What?”

“Cry out, Yu-Seong! Come, the end of all things… Storm of Destruction!”

“…W-What?”

“Come on, if the summoner doesn’t cheer his pet on, how can you expect the pet to do well?”

“You crazy bastard, how can you say something so shameless with a straight face?”

“C’mon, you can do it! Wake up the inner temper tantrum baby within you!”

Hearing Loki’s words, Yu-Seong’s face turned red; however, Yu-Seong eventually turned his head to the side and said, “…Storm of Destruction.”

“Your voice is too quiet! Louder! Make sure to properly memorize the order of the spell’s activation phrase as well!”

“Damn it, is this the Korean army?! Why should I have to say such childish words?”

“Hey, if you run out of mana again, you’ll have to consume another one of your priceless potions.”

Hearing Loki’s slight threat, Yu-Seong could not help but feel taken aback as a sense of urgency appeared on his face. He did not want to consume another one of his precious potions. Eventually, Yu-Seong steeled his heart.

‘Whatever, no one is watching me here anyway!’

If he had done what Loki wanted him to do in the outside world, Yu-Seong would have probably obtained another embarrassing nickname.

‘Prince of Reversals is embarrassing enough!’

With a red face, Yu-Seong shouted as he clenched his fists, “Oh, come…! The end of all things!”

His voice initially trembled when he spoke the first few words, but there was strength in his voice by the time he completed the phrase.

Loki slowly made a satisfied smile. Then, through the gaps between her sharp teeth, purple spheres began to quickly gather.

Seeing such an unusual scene unfolding, Yu-Seong gave up on trying to maintain his pride; he swung an arm out and shouted, “Storm of Destruction!”

Immediately, with a great roar, god’s punishment descended and covered the entire undead army.
