The huge Hellfire swallowed the water from the huge tidal wave. The room was instantly filled with steam. However, the onslaught of the Hellfire still continued until it eventually evaporated all of the water from the created waves. In the end, it still collided with the water barrier that Kiari created in front of Minhyuk and Ben.

Bang!

The water barrier shattered and fell so easily. It was a futile attempt at trying to stop such an enormous magic. After shattering the water barrier, the Hellfire continued on and collided with the frying pan.

Bang!

“Keuheuuuuugh!”

Minhyuk let out a groan of pain. He was expecting for the magical reflection to activate but it did not get triggered.

Shwiiiiiiiiing!

Minhyuk’s body was slowly getting pushed back by the hellfire.

‘It, it’s hot......!’

The high intensity of the blazing flames that could easily melt the items in its surroundings made his whole body feel hot.

[Your HP is decreasing rapidly.]

[Your HP has fallen below 90%.]

[Your HP has fallen below 80%.]

[Your HP has fallen below 70%.]

Minhyuk could even feel that the handle of the frying pan was starting to get scalding hot. His hands that were holding on to it were starting to get cramps. He believed that it was almost time that he lost his grip on the pan since his hands were starting to feel weak.

“Oiiink......!”

Kongie suddenly started to push the frying pan from Minhyuk’s left side while Ben pushed it from his right side.

Tap, tap, tap!

Their cover which was slowly getting pushed back by the Hellfire had begun to push forward.

Shwaaaa!

However, the huge blazing flames of Hellfire still did not show any signs of stopping. The three of them braced themselves as they advanced through the flames slowly but steadily.

Shwaaaa!

And at some point in time, the flames had suddenly calmed down.

‘We’ve held on......!’

However, before he could even take a breath of relief, he heard a rustling from behind them. Ben hurriedly went behind Minhyuk as he blocked the incoming attack. Then......

Bang!UppTodated from nô/v/e/lb(i)n.c(o)/m

Great Mage Rafielt waved his wand once more as a large fist made out of black mana smashed at Ben.

“Ugh!”

Ben flew back from the shock of the powerful blow.

Whenever Rafielt waved his wand, a light would flash and fists made out of black mana would be formed. These fists would then immediately fly and attack Minhyuk.

Clang!

Clang!

‘Too fast......!’

Great Mage Rafielt was not only known for his great strength in magic, he was also someone that was strong in close combat and physical attacks.

Shwaaaa!

Not long after, he waved his wand once more. This time, instead of fists, dozens of fireballs were created which attacked Minhyuk fiercely.

Bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang!

Kongie quickly stepped forward and blocked the attacks for Minhyuk.

Clang, clang!

Minhyuk also used his frying pan to smash the flying fireballs back to where it came from.

[Magical Reflection.]

[You have returned the magical attack back to your enemy.]

Puhaa!

[Dispel.]

[Invalidate and dispel a magic attack.]

Great Mage Rafielt casted a magic spell that easily extinguished the magic that was reflected back on him.

“You’ve got some annoying artifacts with you.”

Minhyuk declined to answer his statement.

Vwoooooong!

He just continued to swing his frying pan fiercely.

“Keugh!”

Rafielt couldn’t help but take a step back to widen their distance. At the same time, Minhyuk also took two steps back and furthered the gap between them.

However, there was only one thought that was running in Minhyuk’s head right now.

‘I have to finish this quickly......!’

His foot dug on the ground as he kicked the ground for momentum. On the other hand, Rafielt waved his wand once more as he used his spell, Windcutter, and summoned dozens of blades of wind that were aimed directly at Minhyuk.

Shwaa!

Shwaa!

Shwaa!

The summoned wind blades quickly flew towards Minhyuk. Great Mage Rafielt had thought of using Blink to counter Minhyuk’s annoyingly fast movement whenever he used Step so he could kill him along the way. However, Minhyuk had gone beyond what he had expected him to do.

Slash!

Slash!

Slash!

[Your HP has fallen below 50%.]

[Your HP has fallen below 40%.]

[Your HP has fallen below 30%.]

Blood spurted out from all over Minhyuk’s body as the wind blades tore through his very being. However, his steps did not falter at all. He still continued to dash to where Rafielt was.

‘W, what.......!’

Rafielt, who felt flustered at his shocking actions, raised his finger and pointed it tremblingly at Minhyuk. Then, a burst of black mana shot out of his finger that penetrated each and every single part of Minhyuk’s body.

Minhyuk, who had become a torn and ragged man with all of the injuries he had sustained, as he staggered in front of Rafielt and grabbed his shoulders tightly.

“For saving the Dragon King’s Palace...... as well as these children...... I give you my thanks.”

However, it seemed like the Dragon King’s energy was already spent. He wasn’t even able to finish his sentence when his head drooped down.

“Dragon King-niiiiiiim!”

“Huhuhuhuhu!”

Kiari, Jevis and Radin’s cries echoed loudly inside the room.

Minhyuk hurriedly approached the Dragon King as he took something out of his arms. It was none other than the ‘Legendary White Chocolate’ that he had saved before back when he was at the Chocolate Paradise.

The white chocolate had the power to revive someone who was at the brink of death or someone who had just died as long as not too much time had passed. He did not know it but perhaps, right now, this white chocolate was the most valuable item in the world.

However, Minhyuk did not care at all. If he fed this to the Dragon King, then he would become the benefactor of both the Dragon King and the entirety of the Dragon King’s Palace. Of course those were not his main concern, there was only one reason why he would use it for the Dragon King.

‘This is so I can eat snow crabs......!’

Minhyuk had always valued the taste of the food instead of the abilities that it would give him. The sweet chocolate fruits that he could harvest from the chocolate tree all tasted similarly to the legendary chocolate that he had eaten before so it did not matter if he fed this one to the Dragon King.

“What are you doing......?”

“Huhuhuhu, heuk......?”

The three of them looked at him curiously as he took the white chocolate, that was as big as his fist, and brought it towards the Dragon King’s mouth who was at least 2m and 50cm in height.

‘But, how do you save someone who just died?’

Right now, it seemed a bit difficult to feed the Dragon King who just died.

But how can I save him from his death?

“What are you doing?! How dare you do something like that in front of the Dragon King......!”

Just when Kiari was going to yell at him for doing something sacrilegious to the Dragon King, a surprising thing happened in front of them.

The white chocolate floated in the air above the Dragon King.

[The Legendary White Chocolate has shown its power.]

The white chocolate that was silently floating in the air slowly began to melt. Then, the melted chocolate flew slowly and entered the slightly opened mouth of the Dragon King. The white chocolate continuously melted and entered the mouth of the Dragon King.

Kiari and Jevis looked at the scene in undisguised shock.

“I, I can’t believe that I’m feeling a tremendous amount of power from chocolate......!”

The white chocolate gradually shrunk in size until all of the melted chocolate entered the Dragon King’s mouth.

[You have completed your Unexpected Job Quest: Dragon King’s Palace in Crisis.]

[You can now receive the snow crabs from the Dragon King.]

“......”

Minhyuk sighed in relief once he read the notifications.

Right now, he could finally see the Dragon King slowly, very slowly open his eyes. He could also see that his pale and bluish complexion had begun to rapidly recover. His catfish beard that had turned into white due to his lack of energy had also turned back into black. The energetic and strong Dragon King of the past had now finally come back!

“Dragon King-nim!”

Jevis was the first one to dive straight into the arms of the Dragon King. Kiari smiled broadly while shedding tears of joy as she watched the scene in front of her.

“Waaaaaaaah!”

Radin clenched his fists tightly as he shouted happily.

Before they knew it, the creatures in the palace that had fallen unconscious started to wake up one by one.

And Minhyuk?

‘Snow crabs. I want to eat snow crabs......! B, but I don’t think this is the right time to ask for it......’

Minhyuk wished that this warm and joyful mood(?) end soon. As he hoped for that to happen, he started to pick up the artifacts that dropped from Great Mage Rafielt.

[You have acquired 251, 311, 561 gold.]

[You have acquired Great Mage Rafielt’s Wand.]

***

The Dragon King, who was now fully conscious and awake, had finally heard about what had happened to him recently. He had also heard about the mysterious foreigner that had saved him from death.

The Dragon King sat on his throne in a daze, seemingly lost in his thoughts.

“Hehe. Dragon King-nim, please have some tea!”

“Oh. Thank you, Kiari.”

Kiari smiled brightly as she happily passed the cup of tea to the Dragon King. She was so happy that even her round and fluffy tail twitched wildly.

Then, she heard the Dragon King talk...

“Kiari-yah.”

“Yes. Dragon King-nim?”

“Bring me my ancient treasure chest.”

“......!”

Kiari’s eyes widened in surprise when she heard his orders.

The ancient treasure chest.

There were three outstanding artifacts in the Dragon King’s Palace. All of these artifacts could exhibit a truly remarkable power that even exceeded the other legendary artifacts. And these three artifacts were currently owned by Kiari, Jevis and Radin. And an ancient treasure chest was currently housing these three artifacts.

The ancient treasure chest was an item that was given by God Roves. However, for hundreds of years, the final box had remained unopened. This was because whenever a child of the Dragon King dies, their weapon would be inherited by the next child.

“......Is it really fine to give that treasure to a foreigner?”

“Kiari-yah. He, to our Dragon King’s Palace, me and even you, is a benefactor. Wasn’t he also the one who saved Jevis?”

Kiari nodded her head. He was a person that they were grateful to. A man that they were grateful to. She nodded her head again as she hopped away.

Not long after, Minhyuk came inside. After some time, Kiari came back with the ancient treasure chest that she handed over to him.

“Please open it.”

Minhyuk slowly opened the treasure chest under the excited eyes of the Dragon King.

As soon as the treasure chest opened......

Shwaaaa━

An item slowly appeared accompanied by a mysterious sound. The first thing that he saw was the grip and the grip was attached to the thick blade of a sword. In just one glance, he was sure that it was a great sword.

Minhyuk slowly reached his hand out and grasped the handle of the greatsword. The moment his hand touched the handle, notifications rang in his head.

[You have acquired the Ancient Water Dragon Barraca’s Great Sword.]

[The Ancient Water Dragon Barraca’s Great Sword now belongs to you.]

TL’s corner!

Ah. Battle is finally done. That was a long fight. Took how many chapters. He did kill Rafielt faster than Rumad. Maybe because it’s not Rafielt’s body and that the Dragon King’s body is already spent so he did it easily compared to when they fought against Rumad.

Will he be delighted or would he sound sarcastic? I believe he will sound sarcastic. Kek. Anyway, he has to ask for snow crabs too. I wonder if he’s going to tell them that he’s the Food God. Anyway, I’m so excited for crabs. I hope there are lobsters too. Sluuuurp. :L

PR’s corner!

Heh, I wonder how Genie’s going to react when Minhyuk rolls up with all of Rafielt’s stuff to sell for food? Also, I’m going to call it that Minhyuk’s just going to keep encountering all of the World’s Strongest Men.
