Chapter 510: Beyond the Heavens Kingdom versus Akhan

Chapter 510: Beyond the Heavens Kingdom versus Akhan

With Kimaris’ participation in the battle, Genie immediately ordered Park, the knights, and the rest of the soldiers of Beyond the Heavens Kingdom to retreat. Park and the rest of the troops were stimulated with rage and could not be contained.

However, Genie was a wise commander.

“Know that my orders are the same as His Majesty’s orders, going against my orders means that you’re showing insubordination to our king!”

Her words left the soldiers with no choice. The only reason why she threatened the soldiers like that was to reduce the damage that they would incur. The number of the soldiers that have died during this battle had already exceeded a thousand. Of course, the remaining soldiers had also made remarkable achievements, bombing their levels up and increasing it by around 20~30.

Besides, there was room for them to retreat since the Beyond the Heavens Kingdom’s reinforcement had arrived. In other words, they could still maintain the balance that the soldiers were giving their lives for, albeit just barely. One of the best rankers of Beyond the Heavens Kingdom, Khan, snatched the tail of one of the dragons that were charging at Kimaris.

“What...?!” Dragon Ford shouted in shock. Could a human bear his weight and actually drag him away?

Then, at that moment, the muscles in Khan’s arms began to bulge.

[Giant’s Herculean Strength.]

[Your STR will triple in a moment.]

“Haaaaaaa!” Khan shouted, putting strength into his arms. Surprisingly enough, Ford was dragged to where he was. Then, Khan threw Ford into the skies and immediately flew after him.

“Keuaaaaaaaack!”

Khan’s fists were covered with tremendous power. Giant’s Explosion was a skill that allowed Khan to strike at his enemy indiscriminately with fists that have an additional 1,800% attack. The skill’s effect was excellent for one-on-one battles. However, when against a huge being like a dragon, its effect would more than double.

Baaaaang!

The first attack that slammed into Ford’s body, made a dent in the shape of Khan’s fist. Then, it was followed by several punches in quick successions.

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

Khan’s fists literally felt like bombs going off on Ford’s body, forcing him to scream, “Graaaaaaa! S, stop!!!”

The attacks made Ford fall on the ground. However, Kaistra, the Envoy of Incarnation, was already waiting for him with his spear and wolf headgear while riding on Penrus, its pristine white fur fluttering gently with the wind, all ready to pounce at Ford.

“Light’s Natural State,” Kaistra murmured softly.

Flaaaaaash—

Penrus turned into light as he leapt up to the skies. This was the skill that Penrus and the Envoy of Incarnation, Kaistra, had acquired just recently.

[Light’s Natural State.]

[The incarnation and the Envoy of Incarnations will become one and show a tremendous display of power.]

[You will receive an additional 2,400% attack for a moment, a power that would allow you to pierce through your enemy.]

Staaaaaab—

Penrus and Kaistra flew higher in the skies after digging through the thick scales of the dragon. The dragon’s HP after being pierced through by Penrus and Kaistra’s attack had already fallen down to the point that their regenerative power could not keep up anymore.

Then, as if to put the final touch, Golden Mage Ali shouted, “Diss.”

Fwoooooooosh—

Five golden spears of light accurately pierced through the dragon’s vital points. The dragon fell helplessly, crashing into the ground. Even if it was a dragon, it could not survive an onslaught of attack like that, especially after fighting against Kimaris. Of course, it was also because three great dealers had focused their attacks on him. That was how the dragon died under their hands.

The battle had been going on for four hours now. But now, they had finally succeeded in hunting one dragon. All of the guild members received notifications.

[You have hunted Dragon Ford.]

[Everyone that has participated in the dragon hunt will receive rewards based on their contributions.]

[Dragon Ford’s abilities had been reduced by 30% after traveling through continents.]

[In accordance with this, the EXP acquisition and artifact and item drop rate will also be reduced by 30%.]

[You have acquired 233,306,314 EXP.]

[You have leveled up.]

[You have leveled up.]

[You have gained the Title: Dragon Slayer.]

[You have acquired 1,811 platinum.]

[You have acquired 6 kg of Dragon Ford’s scales.]

[You have acquired Dragon Ford’s magical dictionary.]

[You have acquired 16 Fantastic Weapon Reinforcement Stones.]

[You have acquired 26 Fantastic Armor Reinforcement Stones.]

[You have acquired the map to Dragon Ford’s ‘Lair’.]

Indeed, a dragon was a dragon. Hunting such a beast would always be accompanied by enormous risks and damages, but they would always give tremendous rewards. And people always tend to look for monsters of this caliber, even if it was dangerous, for their rewards.

“...?!”

“...?!”

The knights that surrounded Ascar were shocked and astounded. The knight that rushed forward died with blood spurting out of his neck without even exchanging a blow with Ascar. Ascar looked at them with gloomy and dark eyes. She was the ghost and the goddess of the battlefield. And right now, her instincts have been awakened.

Flash—

The moment she took a step...

“Keuhaaaack!”

...one of the knights was cut down.

Slash—

And with a swing of her sword...

Thud—

...another knight’s head fell down and rolled on the ground. And when Ascar increased her speed...

Fwoosh, fwoosh, fwoosh, fwoosh—

...five more knights fell down with blood spurting out of their chests. Ascar dashed from one place to another and showed the world the greatness of Beyond the Heavens Kingdom as she, the one that was hailed as one of the most skilled members of their kingdom, cut down the knights of Lumae Kingdom.

Then, a light in the shape of a sword suddenly flashed above Ascar and Locke’s heads.

[Sword Goddess’ Blessings.]

[All stats increase by 18%. Weapon attack power increases by 140%.]

The moment the strongest dealer and the best buff specialist, Bread Shuttle Mei Wei, joined the fray, more knights fell down and collapsed.

[This is really crazy...]

[Are they really from the Behind the Heavens Kingdom?]

[Beyond the Heavens Kingdom is teeming with monsters...]

The people from all over the world were all shocked by their performance.

Meanwhile, Akhan, who was watching the situation unfold, finally made a judgment, ‘If the king of Beyond the Heavens Kingdom, the Food God, and Ellie appears here, then things will be difficult for our side.’

Thus, he made a quick decision. He would sacrifice himself to bring a greater power down to this plane of existence. Besides, the requirements for this summons had already been met.

“Hell’s Gate.”

He was going to awaken that person that was locked up in hell, a place that was under the rule of the God of Death, and let everyone here suffer the pain and terror of the past. Then, darkness began to cover the skies as a wide smile formed at Akhan’s lips.

[Hell’s Gate has been opened.]

[Demigod Asura has awakened to the world.]

The kings left Baroque Kingdom swiftly as if they were fleeing. They were chatting happily as they continued on their long procession back to their kingdoms.

“Beyond the Heavens and Baroque Kingdoms will soon meet their downfall, right?”

“Of course. Those are dragons. Can anyone hold out against them?”

Instead of worrying, they thought that it was a very good opportunity for them. After all, they believed that the dragons would return once they finished what they were set out to do. When that time came, they would definitely devour the two fallen kingdoms. But then, at that moment...

“Hiiiik...!”

“Heoook!”

“Wh, what’s that?!”

“Huh?”

“What’s happening?!”

The kings all rushed out of their carriages in confusion. However, they were met with a very shocking sight. A man was riding on the back of a gigantic red dragon and rushing to where Baroque Kingdom was.

“...!”

“...!”

This was something unprecedented. No event like this has been written in history books. A knight riding on top of a dragon? It was a tremendous feat but the figure on top of the dragon was not a knight.

“The, the Beyond the Heavens Kingdom’s king?!”

“Isn’t, isn’t that the Food God?!”

The sight was so amazing that the kings could not help but shake.

Minhyuk, who was riding on top of Dragon Elder Velach, was rushing straight toward the Baroque Kingdom.
