Episode 172, Acceleration (2)
An ancient demon.
The existence that was created by not offering sacrifices revealed overwhelming power.
‘It’s a success.’
I had summoned the ancient demon as planned, and I smiled softly, feeling a sense of accomplishment.
Well, if there was a flaw, it would have been that the ancient demon appeared in a situation where all the challengers had not been sorted out, but... I
didn’t have to worry too much about that either.
“Quaaaaa! It’s like this dog ...! They really all look like crap...!”
“Puhh! Yes, let’s all die together! Death is cheap if you can make that demonic bastard your companion!”
“Huh hahaha! it’s over! It’s all over! I’m going to die like this...!”
Because no one has enough energy left to stand against me.
I looked at the ancient demon and examined its form.
“....”
Not to mention the appearance of adding dark and shady things in this world like rags
.
‘It’s strong.’
Perhaps it was the labyrinth’s intention to prevent anyone from surviving, so I nodded my head.
‘Certainly, if something like this appears as an enemy, we might all die.’
Even if all the challengers in this place join forces, they are strong enemies who will face death like insects.
But...
「Myth < Vampire Exorcist > is activated.」
「Divine attack has the effect of < Cannot Regenerate >」
「Divine attack has the effect of < Exorcism >.」
Ancient demons are hopeless opponents for normal challengers.
To be honest, I felt like I could manage to get hold of it.
‘I never thought this myth would be so helpful.’
The myth of < Vampire Exorcist >, which gives the effect of non-regeneration and exorcism, was activated, and divinity pervaded the body.
Is this also an ability that resides in exorcism?
「I did not back down against the ancient demon.」
「All stats increase by +20 due to the mythic < Vampire Exorcist >.」 「
While dealing with the ancient demon, all divine attacks are greatly enhanced.
」 The formless energy disappeared in an instant, and instead, vitality surged.
In addition to the increase in stats comparable to < The Warrior of Reversal >, the divinity fluctuates wildly.
I didn’t know that my strength would increase to this extent, so I couldn’t help but smile on my lips...
‘At this point, I can’t lose even if I try to lose.’
I looked at the ancient demon with the momentum to swing my sword straight away and tried to activate the power skill.
But...
“Excuse me, Great One above...”
Suddenly, a trembling voice came from an ancient demon.
‘what?’
The tone is completely different from the one before, when he said he would judge everything.
It was as if...
“...”
the ancient demon was terrified of me.
“Is it okay if I just go back and look...?”
no.
It wasn’t to the point where I felt frightened anymore.
Truly, this ancient demon was watching me in a frightened and servile manner.
“...”
Then I started to shine my eyes at the idea that passed through my head.
He should be like that too...
‘Maybe I can use this as an opportunity...?’
Because he figured out how to use this servile, ancient demon.
“Did I ask if I could go back?”
Soon I looked at the ancient demon with a grin.
“Can you allow me to go back?”
And...
“Only in exchange for accepting the deal.”
After staring at the ancient demon for a moment, I opened my mouth.
“So, if I help out there, what reward will I get?”
“Bo reward? I already gave you the mask of despair...”
“That is that and this is this. additional compensation. Without it, I would not be able to accept your offer.”
“...”
At that, the ancient devil looked at me with his mouth shut.
‘Look at this?’
His eyes were filled with even the slightest bit of contempt... but
with a click!
That disrespectful feeling disappeared like snow as soon as he quietly took the longsword out of the scabbard.
“Ah ha ha ha! yes Yes! Extra Rewards! Ah yes! I forgot about it!”
The ancient devil immediately forced a smile and took out a new item.
“Then how can I get an extra reward with this...?”
It was a mysterious longsword whose blade was subtly wrapped in silver.
[New Moon Sword]
[Grade: C+]
[Attack Speed +15%] [Moonlight Sword
refined over several years with the moonlight from the New Moon.”
It is created in and all the user’s stats increase by +1.」
「In addition, a buff that increases magic power by +1 is given to those whom the user considers to be allies within reach of the moonlight.」
“Oh.”
A better item appeared than expected.
It uses [MP], a special function in the labyrinth, to increase all the user’s stats by +1... For
those who consider them allies, an item that can increase magic power by +1, even within the reach of the moonlight, could not be good. .
“Then, I’ll receive an additional reward with this.”
Thinking that I had finally found a useful weapon, I happily accepted the new moon sword.
“What a great being! Can we put these humans together now?”
Only then did the ancient devil say that with anticipation...
“As you please.”
When he gave a rough answer, the ancient devil showed his teeth and smiled.
“Then I will enjoy it without hesitation.”
It is...
“You worm-like humans, the time of judgment has come again!”
It was like looking at a real insect.
“I don’t want to die! please! I will cooperate with you, so please give me a chance to survive!”
“A devilish bastard called a real devil... hehehehe. There’s no hope now...”
“Damn it...! You’ve gone as far as I can go...! One day you will pay for your deal with the devil!”
The surroundings began to fill with despair again.
It was worth it.
They had lost their will to fight before and couldn’t even move, so there was no way they could fight.
“okay! This is human! Cry some more...! ha ha ha!”
The ancient demon smiled like a crescent moon as if enjoying the situation itself.
And...
[The authority ‘Sword Merchant’ is activated.]
At that moment, a blue light flashed like a flash and severely slashed the ancient demon’s back.
Chow!
“Kuaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!”
Purple blood splattered promiscuously, and a terrible scream was heard.
“I think I misunderstood...”
Then the eyes of the ancient demon turned to me behind the scenes...
“I didn’t even say I would spare you.”
I continued with a refreshing smile.
“Oh, I’ll keep the word that I’ll let you go back.”
next moment.
“If I die anyway, I can go to the side of the evil god I love so much, right?”
A voice filled with rage came from an ancient demon.
“This—! dog-! A child-! I’ll tear you apart and kill you!”
It was a cry of satisfaction.
