Chapter 275: Good Guy, Bad Guy, Weird Guy

The person with the X token in front of them was none other than Black Mage Ali. Black Mage Ali was also heading towards the Demon World’s Tower for the same reason as Black Dragon. Not too long ago, he became a candidate for the ‘Royal Class’ like him.

Black Mage Ali’s former job class was going to be transferred to the Royal Class ‘Great Mage Moldoron’s Descendant’. Moldoron was also a great mage that was on par with Great Mage Rafielt. Great Mage Moldoron was also known as the father and role model of all mages.

Right now, he could tell who and what these people were after from what they had just said earlier.

‘How dare you try to harm my friend......’

For Ali, Minhyuk was his benefactor. He was the one who had helped him climb into the Hall of Kings. He was also the one who helped him overcome his limitations which enabled him to widen the gap with Alex, the world’s number one mage. He also liked Minhyuk’s friendly smile and pleasant attitude.

There was also one thing. Once a user stepped foot in the Demon World, information would appear in Athenae’s official webpage.

This was the information......

[Due to the thick magi in the Demon World, God Vades’s power, a power that punishes those who kill other people, does not have any influence in this area.]

One could imply that God Vades was the god of ‘Chaotic’. In other words, if he did not have any influence in this area, then PK between users was allowed and killing others would not result in a chaotic state.

So they must have come for this reason.

‘The Demon World is a place where users can compete against each other.’

Most of the people who came to the Demon World’s entrance were usually representatives and top rankers of their own countries. And there was only one thing the rankers of each country wanted to do...

I want to quickly compete with the rankers from all over the world. I hope the server consolidation finishes quickly!

And the content that will relieve the itch from the itching users was none other than the ‘Demon World’.

“Look here. Get out of here if you don’t want to get hurt.”

Arch’s face distorted as he growled at Ali.

He did not know who he was but a mage and a melee class user were both on different ends of the spectrum. Mages were people with extremely low AGI, STR and defense. When they exert their power, most of the time, they would showcase a wide-area of attack skill. Also, most of their magic skills needed time before they could be casted. Since mages had low AGI and took quite a long time before they could start, melee characters could easily deal with them. For that reason, he believed that the mage in front of him that was garbed in a rugged black robe was an opponent that could be dealt with easily. He could easily do a ‘3 second cut’ on him.

Then, the man spoke.

“I will not forgive anyone who tries to harm my friend.”

“.......What an otaku-like line.”

Arch’s lips curled into a smile at the absurd line that he had heard. However, that smile was soon erased from his smug face.

When Ali swung his staff, a powerful force came from the staff and slammed on Arch.

Baaaaang―

“......!”

Just as Arch was thrown back by the force, the melee class tankers flooded towards Ali. It seemed like they had an extremely fast response speed.

Flash―

At the same time, Ali turned into a black current as he disappeared from his original spot. Then, he reappeared right next to the man who was reaching for himself earlier.

“Energy bolt.”

“Bwahahahaha! What can you do with an energy bolt......!”

But before the guy could even finish his words......

Baaaaang―

The man flew back with a loud explosion.

“Keoheok!”

[You have been hit with an Energy Bolt.]

[You have received an electric shock and have been stunned for 2 seconds.]

The energy bolt was the most basic magic that was given to a user that had just transitioned to the mage class. This skill was well known for its ability to stun the enemy from the electric current caused by the spell. However, a mage needed to have a magical attack power that was five times higher compared to an opponent to achieve a stun and it would usually only last for one second.

But what is the situation right now?

What was worse was that his HP was slashed down by 30% after being hit with just a single energy bolt.

That was the moment when the other guild members had tried to narrow the distance between them and the enemy. Just as they were about to get near, Ali’s curled index finger unfolded. Then, the lightning power that was collected at the tip of his finger was unleashed. It attacked the approaching guild members and left them in a stunned state. In other words, it also hit the stunned Gerron.

Crackle―

“Keoheok!”

Then, the notifications rang for Gerron once more.

[You have been hit with an Energy Bolt.]

[You have received an electric shock and have been stunned for 2 seconds.]

“Sh, shit......! I was stunned again!”

Although stun was already subjected to a five-fold magical attack power proportion, it was also entirely up to probability.

But I got it again?

And when the guild members tried to narrow the distance again......

Baaaaaaang―

Ali’s regenerated energy bolt hit Gerron once more.

“Keuaaaack!”

The guild members faltered as they made eye contact with him. They decided to abandon Gerron. However, Ali expected this outcome too.

Flash―

Crack―

“You bastard! You’re Black Mage Ali......!”

That was when Arch realized who he was.

It was a fact that Alex was the official top mage ranker in the world. However, he was told that there was a mage user who had reached a level that was higher than him. He heard that he played a huge role during the invasion of the demons in South Korea.

But regardless of that, there were a lot of rankers who were only known in their own countries. Such rankers were rarely known by the rankers from other countries.

He could only guess who he was because he had heard that ‘Alex is not the best mage in the world’.

Meanwhile, Ali only laughed with the staff in his hand.

“Why the hell are you doing this to us!!!”

Then, Ali answered him.

“I’m not going to let you touch my friend.”

Shwaaaaaaaa!

Then, a huge spell suddenly appeared around Ali. Arch couldn’t help but be shocked.

‘D, don’t tell me......!’

In the past, there was information posted in Athenae’s official website about the method on how mages could compensate for their ‘close combat disadvantage’. However, it also announced that only the best among the best could use this technique. This technique required the user to achieve the final peak of the 8th class as well as having a huge pool of mana.

The ability to make up for their shortcomings was none other than......

‘Do, double casting......?!’

Casting other spells while secretly preparing for a wide-area of attack skill. And Ali did it.

“Lightning Storm.”

Crack, crack, crack―

Bang, bang, bang, bang―

A huge lightning storm engulfed Arch who had just right around the corner.

“Keuaaaaaaaack!”

A small smile hung around Callauhel’s lips.

[You have achieved the 30th floor’s new record.]

[You have acquired additional clues about the Royal Class Destruction Maestro.]

He was also one of the candidates for a Royal Class. The conditions for the Royal Class were different from user to user. In Callauhel’s case, he needed to achieve a new record on the Demon World’s 30th floor.

And just like that, a clue was laid in front of him.

Flutter―

[Hunt Cerberus, the Demon World’s gatekeeper, on the 34th floor.]

Callauhel nodded his head.

Now, he had two choices. Hunt Cerberus and move on to the Royal Class or wait for another clue to emerge.

However, there was one thing that he was sure of. He could feel it down to his very core. He would soon be a Royal Class.

Perhaps the new Royal Class will be announced with a World Message.

Just as he was about to move on......

[Bachur: Callauhel-nim, this is Bachur. I’m the 1st Magic Commander of the Golden Staff Guild. Many of our guild members are receiving huge damages from an unknown tamer with a dragon right now.]

“......?”

Callauhel’s face was filled with confusion.

A tamer with a dragon? Are you telling me that all of the members of Golden Staff are having a hard time?

[Callauhel: What’s the situation?]

He received a reply about five minutes later.

[Bachur: I was eventually forced to log out. There are about 30 guild members who were forced to log out by a mentally challenged boy and a dragon tamer.]

He was left speechless for a while. And just as he was about to send a whisper back......

[Casio: Callauhel-nim, Black Mage Ali has suddenly launched an assault on us.]

“......!”

Callauhel, someone who collected information about all of the rankers in the world, knew who Black Mage Ali was. Ali was the mage that Alex couldn’t even grab the hems of.

Why is he attacking the members of Blackstone?

[Callauhel: Your situation......]

Callauhel couldn’t even finish his whisper.

[The user ‘Anonymous’, who broke the first floor’s new record, has been born to the world.]

[There is a significant gap with the previous record.]

Callauhel’s eyes widened in shock. Someone broke the record that he was confident and proud of.

TL’s corner!

And the record breaking and food collecting begins!!!
