Chapter 134: A Ray of Light
It was not difficult to restore the collapsed labyrinth to its original state.
Because I had reversal magic.
Did I have mana that I could use in such a place?
Not only I had mana, the amount of mana I had was enough.
[Natural Enemy relationship] was activated.
Moreover, as long as [Pentagram of Pure Knowledge] existed.
The efficiency of magic interference with minerals abnormally improved.
Ruuumblee!
In other words, I didnt speak confidently for no reason.
!
The scene went backward like a reverse play.
The Being That Should Not Be Awakened once again began to burrow itself into the rock walls of the labyrinth. It looked scary once more. This was what Grandfel meant by accepting his peeves.
It just meant I would tie it tightly with a blanket and make it impossible for it to move.
I was briefly shocked by the words that came out of my mouth.
I saw Fabian and his party fighting hard.
Did he say that he brought magic tools with him because of the letter I sent him that told him to be thoroughly prepared?
Indeed, even at a glance, the level of the magic tools was extraordinary.
Especially that torch held by Fabian.
Green flame.
Apart from its look, its power also seemed impossible to ignore.
Considering Fabians class, the torch must be an item that wasnt classified as a weapon.
Crackle!
Swiing!
Within the trajectory of the torch swung.
Everything began to melt away in an instant.
The tough-looking leather of the monster was no exception.
For now, the attack was successful, and Fabian said as he hurriedly retreated.
How does it feel? Thats Hells Fire.
[Hells Fire]
The name alone sounded amazing.
Lets talk about the torch with Fabian later. Due to this pure integrity, I wasnt interested in material greed but Fabian clearly said hell just now.
Demon and hell.
And demon hunter.
Considering these relationships, I needed to pay attention to this item.
Of course, the miscellaneous thoughts ended there.
In order not to sink into the heavy pride in my heart.
I couldnt miss the string of opportunities I had now.
Lets take a broader view.
Experience when recapturing Frost.
I felt bad for comparing them, but lets consider the players as the Knights of Lionheart.
I would have to assist players who were in a hurry to avoid the attacks right now.
Craaack!
The ground rose up.
It was a springboard for close-range class players.
Even if the being was trapped under a blanket of the rock wall, there was a considerable risk for close combatants.
Even the slightest movement from the monster can cause vibrations and earthquakes.
However.
Stairs?
Wait a minute, stairs?
First of all, with this, we can hit and run freely, right?
As you could see.
If there was a foothold to step on.
It would be of great help in both attack and evasion.
Sk!
Swat!
Hit!
Being That Should Not Be Awakened.
It was suffering from all kinds of abnormalities, including fear. It was flinching from the attacks of players that normally wouldnt even have left a scratch.
I just got a message! Its a critical hit!
All right. It works.
Push forward!
The voices of players heard from all over the place were the proof.
It doesnt take much magic or nerve to assist.
Of course, what made this possible was the White Elytra.
The elytra fluttered.
One hundred attribute magics fluttered like feathers.
It was a form of manifesting the stored magic. This was probably thanks to being able to skip the exploration process. In addition, the additional damage effect of [Vampire Counts Orb] was applied to each attribute magic.
But more than any other reason, Thefern was there.
Even in the living, breathing past.
Even in the present, where only their resentment remained.
To protect the peace of the Arcana Continent.
Nothing could replace Theferns pride in clinging to that monster.
Aside from Grandfels pride.
I could sense that much.
The opponent was a 900-level boss monster.
[5,321 Theferns Black Contractors]
[4,119 Theferns Black Contractors]
[2,847 Theferns Black Contractors]
It was definitely an enemy that could not be defeated without sacrifice.
I wasnt the only one who noticed that.
Theferns Black Contractor.
Even players who looked down on them gradually began to recognize their sacrifice and pride.
Jiing
Magic poured out from the monsters eyes.
Theferns Black Contractors threw themselves in place of players who were almost swept away by the attack.
What?
The monsters threw themselves to save us?
I dont know whats happening, but they all are throwing themselves and fighting.
It was enough to change the tide.
As a result, a sense of sadness filled the battlefield.
There were no more unnecessary conversations.
Everyone here, including me.
We tried our best to take it down.
So the battle didnt last long.
Krraaaa!
Was this its last will?
Being That Should Not Be Awakened.
It let out a ferocious scream.
Then it stopped struggling.
My vision flashed.
[Your level has gone up.]
[Your level has gone up.]
[Your level has gone up.]
Level up.
[With high disposal contribution, you automatically acquired the loot.]
Loot of the battle.
[Top 10 Wonder Quest: Thefern Labyrinth]
[World Quest: Evil Dragon Hunter]
A quest.
Messages constantly came up.
But among the countless messages.
Only one message caught my eye.
Yeah, because there were priorities in everything.
[1 Theferns Black Contractor]
I looked at the last Theferns Black Contractor.
All that remained was resentment.
Even its vision couldnt possibly left intact.
Did it notice my existence with right mana?
The black figure turned to me.
Then it asked.
Have we washed away our mistakes?
I answered immediately.
Your mistakes have long since been cleared.
As I said, Thefern had fulfilled its responsibility by keeping such a monster tied up until now.
So I continued generously.
Everyone here has realized Theferns sacrifice and pride.
!
You may close your eyes and be at ease.
Is that so?
Sss
At my words, the last Theferns Black Contractor began to scatter into the air.
At the same time, my vision was colored with bright light. This meant that [Thefern Labyrinth] rupture had been cleared.
I didnt sink today either
Truthfully, I wanted to breathe a sigh of relief.
However, I couldnt express it because of this tiring personality.
Besides, it was not over yet.
It was time to do the next procedure.
I turned to the players.
Flap
I folded my fluttering elytra and walked away.
There it is.
Found it, the demon who didnt know their place.
*
The supernova, Bred, was astonished.
Thats ridiculous.
[Thefern Labyrinth].
When he entered the rupture, he thought it was a good opportunity.
The level of the rupture was much higher than expected.
Even just falling into one trap would put his life at stake.
Good. Good.
Why did he feel happy when his life was in danger?
Of course, he was happy!
Bred, or rather, Desquee, a demon of the true name who possessed Breds body.
The negative emotions of the players actually gave him strength.
Desquee licked his lips.
I am different from the demon kings. Im not ignorant.
He used his head cleverly.
My goal is Lee Hoyeol.
Up until he entered the rupture, his goal was simply to observe Lee Hoyeol.
He couldnt believe Hoyeol had trampled on three high-powered demon kings.
As a demon, he was purely curious about Hoyeols strength.
But if I do this well
In a labyrinth like this.
Wouldnt Hoyeol let down his guard too?
Wouldnt it be possible to take advantage of the chaotic situation and take away his body?
Ill join the party, too.
He played ordinary human beings and took advantage of the opportunity.
Up until then, Desquee had been self-absorbed.
As expected, Im smart!
Demon kings who claimed they were born strong.
He wanted to show them his viciousness.
Starting with taking over and using the body of a supernova.
He played a human being perfectly in order to achieve his goal.
Look. The depths of the labyrinth are not far away!
And Lee Hoyeol was there.
An entity that the demon kings could not even approach.
Now when other demons couldnt even come forward out of fear.
Desquee stood proudly in front of Lee Hoyeol.
Where are you? Lee Hoyeol.
Desquee lifted up the corners of his mouth unpleasantly.
His vision gradually became brighter.
The moment he witnessed the scenery of the depths of the labyrinth.
Bathump!
!
What?
His heart was beating hard.
It was the first time he had ever felt it.
Desquee looked around to figure out the reason.
What are those big eyes?
Just like everyone else.
Was he surprised by that huge pupil?
No, he wasnt.
So what if that snake-like monster was a strong enemy?
His original goal was Lee Hoyeol. Desquee had no intention of fighting that monster. So he didnt have to be surprised by that monster
Bathump!
Bathump!
His heart was sinking.
It throbbed unpleasantly.
There was a target in Desquees eye.
!
Hoyeol was holding a teacup in his hands.
Desquee tried to laugh.
Even if it was just to calm his pounding heart.
I was wondering what he was doing
How arrogant.
Desquee knew.
How weak humans were.
Weak guys were weak.
Strong guys stayed strong.
That mentality was bound to have vulnerabilities.
How long can that arrogance last?
Rumble!
And the battle of the Thefern Labyrinth began.
The battle unfolded in a way that made Desquee couldnt help but feel astonished.
Desquee murmured again.
It was ridiculous.
How?
How could a weak human being alone bring about such change?
He had guessed Lee Hoyeols strength.
As he said, Hoyeol was the one who had killed three demon kings.
Dont back down!
Hyungnims, I have no desire to die in shame!
Step back and change ranks!
Indeed.
What Desquee feared was change.
Emotional changes in weak human beings.
I dont understand.
The humans were clearly overcome with fear.
Thanks to that negative emotion, his power was boiling over.
But Lee Hoyeol, the moment he started to move.
Everything changed.
Desquee murmured.
The worst compatibility.
Desquee finally knew his place.
Lee Hoyeol was someone he couldnt dare to surpass.
He thought he could see why so many demon kings had died at the hands of Lee Hoyeol.
In that regard, he was glad he found out about it now.
Its best not to get involved with him.
As an ideal-born demon.
Lee Hoyeol was someone he shouldnt touch.
Desquee intended to convey this news to the other demons.
He didnt care what happened to those guys lives.
But losing the relationships he had built up would be inconvenient.
We won!
Was it cleared?
At the same time as the burst of shouts, the rupture crumbled.
Desquee vowed.
He would never do anything presumptuous again.
Being content with the present is not a bad thing.
He didnt regret it.
But why?
Bathump!
Bathump!
Bathump!
Why was his heart still beating like crazy?
?!
Desquee was bewildered.
A light appeared in his vision.
The light from the collapsing rupture.
A shadow was looking at him with its back against that light like a halo.
Flap
Only then did Desquee realize why his heart was pounding.
Yeah, he was mistaken.
When he caught sight of those wings, he was mistaken in thinking he could do as he pleased
What he felt was fear
No.
No.
It didnt end with just looking.
Why was Lee Hoyeol approaching him?
In the gradually intensified light, Desquees eyes met with Hoyeols.
!
He was met with an extremely cold gaze.
I have to run away!
Although he didnt know what happened.
Lee Hoyeol knew who he was.
He was certain Lee Hoyeol knew he was a demon.
The rupture cleared.
Desquee rushed through the crowd and ran away.
But it was all useless.
There was a magic stirred beneath Desquees feet.
It was a portal.
!
When Desquiree came to his senses.
An old-fashioned office caught his eye.
Standing upright in the office.
Hoyeol looked down on him.
The only thing he could hear was a dry voice.
You are the second demon to step here.
D-Demon. What are you talking about?
This is also the second time I hear that abominable excuse.
The second time?
The demon kings wouldnt have found this place
Then, no way?
Im not the first one?
It meant this wasnt the first time Lee Hoyeol noticed a demon possessing a human!
When he realized what it meant, it was too late.
Do not exchange unnecessary words with prey.
What Hoyeol said was not part of a conversation.
It was just a promise to himself.
But there is no third time.
W-What?
I myself will come and dispose of you inferiors.
!!
Sssk
*
Woosh!
Thefern Labyrinth rupture had been cleared.
Perhaps thanks to the live broadcasts and vivid videos of Nettuber players, including Park Hwigang.
The interest in the Thefern labyrinth wasnt cooling down.
Players who entered the labyrinth with Hoyeol.
They had a lot to say more than anyone else.
When I first entered, I thought I was in trouble.
Why?
First of all, I was away from Player Lee Hoyeol. Haha, Im just kidding.
Each broadcaster.
The interviews with players.
Each player had different things to say.
To sum up their feelings, they finally came together as one.
Lee Hoyeol, no. Hoyeol-nim, it would be terrible without him.
I couldnt even imagine it? I never thought I would climb the stairs that the Knights of Lionheart climbed !
I was honestly moved. I didnt know that he even cared about us.
The data screen played with vivid testimony.
It showed Hoyeols active figure.
The players testimonies continued.
Those of you watching may not realize it, but we could tell.
In fact, Hoyeol waited for us. I guess I could say that hes done us a favor.
Youve all seen it, havent you? He was so relaxed that he had tea time.
Until all players entered the depths of the labyrinth.
Hoyeol just enjoyed his tea leisurely.
In addition, his upright attitude didnt bend an inch even in front of the 900-level boss monster, Being That Should Not Be Awakened.
Although others may not know, the players who were with him had no choice but to acknowledge it.
Honestly, I owe him. A very huge debt, at that.
They couldnt say anything else.
Because of Hoyeols consideration.
Players were recognized for their contribution to the disposal of the Being That Should Not Be Awakened, and thanks to this, they acquired experience points and even received related quests.
[Quest: Traces of the Dragon]
It wasnt a normal quest. It was a quest related to a dragon.
Through it, some information became clear.
The Being That Should Not Be Awakened was a dragon-type monster.
Therefore, there was no disagreement in the evaluation of the Thefern Labyrinth.
The oppression of the demon kings.
Not only he had suppressed the activities of demon-type monsters.
He directly stepped forward and forcibly raised the players level.
Lee Hoyeol should be evaluated again.
Because he wasnt just strong.
Rather than Infinitely Deep Darkness.
The current name wouldnt suit Hoyeol.
The Thefern Labyrinth that was buried in darkness.
Wasnt it Hoyeol who exuded a noble presence in such darkness?
The Ray of Light in the Infinitely Deep Darkness. Id like to call him that.
.
.
.
I was afraid of this.
What, now its the Ray of Light in the Infinitely Deep Darkness?
How long will that damn title last!
The evaluation of others does not matter.
But now was not the time to be troubled by the past.
Level, quest, loot.
Finally, the purified demons loot.
Work is also a must.
Yes, of course. Regardless of whether I had the demons loot or not.
Even the work as chief was accumulated in just one day.
I had a lot to check out.
First, lets check the flashing message.
