Diablo.

The three great demons of the Demon World were so powerful that the magi that leaked from their body was strong enough to kill and suffocate all of the plants and animals in the Demon World. So the three demons decided to create a basin that would suck off their excess magi. Their only requirement for the basin was that it should have a body that was attuned to nature that could withstand their mana.

However, they weren’t able to find such a body in the Demon World. So they searched high and low even venturing to the heavens and the elves’ realms. But they still couldn’t find a body fit enough to become their magi’s basin.

Eventually, they went to the human world. And finally, they were able to find an existence that would fit their requirements. He was a young boy. However, his body was extremely attuned to nature and had an amazing talent. They immediately brought the boy to the Demon World to become their magi’s basin. However, something unexpected happened.

‘He was too powerful.’

The boy that they brought in to become a vessel for their magi had grown formidable after sucking up their magis. The more he sucked the magi, the more he grew. So the great devils had no choice but to stop his body from growing further. But although he had stopped growing further, no one in the Demon World could beat him.

The former Demon King had called him ‘Sly Devil’. And the boy who had become the Sly Devil Diablo was locked up on the 40th floor of the Demon World’s Tower in fear that he would go on a rampage someday.

Diablo, who was locked on the 40th floor of the tower, could only be defeated through three methods. One was using the strength of the Demon King. Or instead of the Demon King, with the use of Ankhassads’ Judgement with Ankheseramun’s power. He could also be killed with the power of the Dagger of Mortality that had its pieces hidden all over the 40th floor.Upstodatee from n(0)/ve/lbIn/.(co/m

He wants me to show him the power of Ankhassads’ Judgement?

“Your reason?”

“There’s a place to use it.”

Ankheseramun’s brows furrowed as Minhyuk continued to speak.

“Ah! I can keep secrets well!”

Minhyuk gestured as if he was zipping his mouth shut. And Ankheseramun realized...

‘This is a trade, isn’t it?’

There were many reasons why Ankheseramun was hiding here despite being the daughter of the Demon King. It was something that absolutely could not be released yet to the world.

Ankheseramun shook her head. She knew that it wasn’t that hard to show him her power. The problem was that Ankhassad’s Judgement one attack was strong enough to match the Demon King’s strongest one shot skill. She believed that this baby piggy would not be able to withstand such strength.

But you want me to attack him?

“But what if he dies?”

She did not know how Minhyuk knew about Ankhassad’s Judgement but what he was sure of was the fact that he was looking down on it. Even if he died, this was a price that Minhyuk had to pay since he dared to make a ‘deal’ with her.

Step, step.

Ankheseramun stood up from the chair. Then, she used Ankhassad’s Judgement. Ankhassad’s Judgement was one of the one shot attacks of Gorac, one of the three great demons. A small black spear suddenly popped out in the empty space in front of her. The black spear immediately flew towards Kongie.

Shwaaaaaak―

The spear was filled with magi to the point that it was vibrating strongly in the air. Just looking at the power contained in this single attack was enough to make anyone shudder. But at that moment......

[Predator’s Acquisition]

[Use any of your opponent’s abilities through predation.]

Kongie’s mouth suddenly widened. Then, he pointed his open mouth towards Ankhassad’s Judgement that was flying straight at him.

Aaaaaaaah―

Then......

Shwaaaaaak―

Ankhassad’s Judgement started to get sucked in his mouth. So what happened to Kongie?

“Oink?”

He remained peaceful and calm.

“......!”

Ankheseramun couldn’t help but be shocked.

‘Th, the ability to nullify all the damage......!’

No, it did not look like he nullified the skill. It looked like he ate it.

Swooooosh―

Ankhassad’s Judgement and his mouth slowly closed. Kongie’s throat just moved. He looked like he was swallowing down the skill that she had unleashed.

Then, the notification rang.

[Kongie has devoured Ankhassad’s Judgement.]

[You can now check the information about Ankhassad’s Judgement.]

So that left him with the final choice.

‘Food God Minhyuk.’

He was the guy who was rapidly climbing the tower right now. He was certain that it would be possible if it was his dish. However, there were certain problems right now. He had recognized Callauhel as his ‘enemy’. But even if he looked back on the steps that he had taken so far, then it was only safe to assume that Callauhel also treated him as his enemy.

Not long after, Callauhel smirked.

‘He’s something I can use since we’re enemies.’

There was one trick that came to mind.

“Looks like we’re going to need Great Thief Elion.”

Great Thief Elion was a world-class thief in Athenae. No one could exceed him in terms of ‘stealing’, ‘swindling’ and ‘tricks’. And he also had a special skill.

‘Among his skills...’

He had a skill that could deceive people by disguising as an NPC and creating quests for them.

***

“User Minhyuk has cleared the 15th floor!”

“User Minhyuk has cleared the 17th floor!”

“User Minhyuk has cleared the 19th floor! His level increased to Lv423!”

President Kang Taehoon listened to Lee Minhwa’s reports.

‘What a ridiculous speed.’

His pace was truly too fast. And right now......

“User Minhyuk has reached the 36th floor. His level is now Lv434!”

All of the people who heard her words clicked their tongues. Setting new records in the Demon World’s Tower would give enormous EXP to the user. In addition, if the user set an impossible score then the user would also receive additional bonus EXP.

Minhyuk was currently bombing his level tremendously. He needed more EXP than any other classes since his job classes were Food God and Eccentric Gourmand. However, with the enormous EXP that he was gaining, it looked like he was ignoring the restriction in EXP with how fast his level was increasing.

“What is this user doing......”

Manager Kim Daesik couldn’t help but mumble under his breath after he saw Minhyuk receiving Ankheseramun’s Ankhassad’s Judgement. Team Leader Park spoke up to answer him.

“You know that Callauhel is in there, right? I think he’s trying to get Diablo? No. But Callauhel won’t tolerate that.”

After leaving those words, Team Leader Park started to list down the items that he would receive once he cleared the ‘General’ floor.

‘Vassal Summoning Parchment and Guild Member Summoning Parchment.’

Aruvel was also providing him with useful information. So he knew the items that he would get.

Then, Lee Minhwa spoke up.

“Callauhel has summoned the Great Thief Elion on the 40th floor!”

Team Leader Park and President Kang Taehoon’s eyes met.

“Why Great Thief Elion......?”

Team Leader Park slowly started to match the puzzle pieces in his head.

‘Right now, Callauhel needs a chef. But he couldn’t use just any other chef since there are a lot of risks involved if he asked others on the spot. The existence of Blackstone might be pushed to the forefront if he did that. But he summoned Great Thief Elion right now. Great Thief Elion has a variety of skills that can trick the person’s eyes. D, don’t tell me he’s trying to dig in the gap with his enemy......?!’

Bang―

Team Leader Park’s fingers banged on the table. The answer came out. And just in time, User Minhyuk had finally reached the 40th floor. And the being that approached him was......

An old man wearing a black robe. It was none other than the Great Thief Elion.

‘It’s not that hard to deceive this punk. Fufufufufu.”

He would trick Minhyuk with his ‘Quest Creation’ and ‘Perfect Makeup’ skills.

Meanwhile, Minhyuk was staring at the old man that was smiling kindly at him.

‘Oho? I didn’t know that he’d do this?’

Minhyuk was easily able to grasp the entirety of the situation.

‘To catch a tiger, you have to go to the tiger’s den.’

The corners of his mouth curled up imperceptibly.

***

TL’s corner!

I mean... How can you even deceive him with the eye that he received from the Elf King? Besides, he knew all of the information about the tower so... Hehehe. Tough luck Callauhel.
