“Kek, this lizard dude is so stupid because he only deals with corpses! He has little communication with people so-”
“Shut it, Crowley”
Crowley’s excited voice came from right next to Faust.
‘Damn it, I thought he would show his face when I talk to him.’
There was a reason Leeha shouted Faust’s name other than asking why. Regardless of the reason, the city was already destroyed, but what did it matter now?
He only needed one shot to drive the bullet into the head of the person on the other side of the golem. However, it was not possible to snipe the target beyond the tall bloated giant golem from his current position.
Grrrr....... As the chimeras approached, the flames in Koma’s body grew stronger.
Of course, it was enough to stop them in their tracks. It was to the extent that the chimeras trembled from the flames and retreated little by little.
‘I can’t run away anyway. In the worst case, I would have to lose my life, but...’
When that happened the city would be destroyed. Leeha opened his friend’s window and looked to see if he had anyone to call. However, except for Ram Hwajung, everyone was logged out.
‘Byeolcho said that they unified time zones for group hunts.... Did Luger and Kidd also log out at the same time?’Nêww chapters will be fully updated at novelhall.com
He could stop them for a bit if he called Ram Hwajeong.
However, even if she and Leeha joined forces, they still might not be able to stop the destruction of the city. Leeha did not want to drag Ram Hwajeong and take such risk.
“So, you’re going to destroy the whole city?”
“No, there’s no need to destroy everything.”
“What? After all this chaos-”
“It could become our base, so why would we destroy it? Think about it.”
“What?”
Faust’s voice trembled for a moment. Base? After destroying the city, are they going to grow the strength of the Demon King’s army from the ruins?
However, Leeha’s thoughts were wrong.
“Aren’t you a user who had gone through a lot of battles? You’re also an outsider....... You are strong.”
“What are you talking-”
“Why don’t you think about coming on our side? Then you might be able to manage this city well.”
Faust tried to persuade Leeha. To join the Demon King’s army, or to be more precise, to be the Demon King’s minion.
“You mean to join the Demon King? Under Bluebeard?”
“Hohoho, don’t overestimate yourself
Ha Leeha. That’s a bad habit. How dare you try to be under the count. To be more accurate, it is ‘below me’.”
“You want me to be under you? Do you think I am crazy? Bring me Bluebeard. If I can talk to him, I might try.”
As Leeha finished talking, giggles erupted from the surroundings. It was a complete mockery.
“Your joke isn’t even funny. Do you think someone like you is equal to the count?”
“Idiot, after you became a part of the Demon King’s army, did you lose your human dignity? Seeing that you keep calling the monster count-nim, I don’t think you have a soul either. Ah! Did you tell me not to overestimate myself? Don’t underestimate yourself. That’s not a good habit either.”
“......Don’t say anything you will regret, Ha Leeha. It’s better for you to be polite right now.”
At least Faust’s keen senses were genuine. Because Leeha was just spouting off anything he could think of.
Joining the Demon King’s army? That was something that never even crossed Leeha’s mind.
However, he forcibly opened his mouth because he knew full well that if he dragged on the conversation and said even one more word, there would be a chance of finding a way out for himself.
“Okay, what will happen if I went under you? Will you make me stronger?”
“Well, it’s simple. You have been to war, so you should know. I will give you order, and you carry them out. I will give you a reward. You can tell by looking at the golem
right now, right?”
Crowley also meant to become stronger by receiving the power of the Demon King’s army. Although he was an alchemist who made many iron golems, he had never created such a gigantic golem.
“Then show yourself. We’re not going to have a proper conversation until we see each other’s face.”
They couldn’t come out. Leeha knew. Leeha looked at the skill window, checked his weapons, and calculated everything that he could do.
“Kek, anyone other than this rotten corpse can do it. Shall we make an example with Czar’s grunts? Huh?”
Bahamut over the rugged golem.
‘Is it really a dragon? No, something is weird. It’s different. It’s different from any dragon I know.’
He was with Kuzgunak’sh, albeit briefly. He knew the truth of the gold dragon very well. At least, as far as he knew, there had never been a case in which a dragon was so benevolent.
Faust caustiously conveyed a whisper to those around him.
-Everyone, prepare to retreat. However, if my attack words,
we will catch the dragon. That is a welcome possibility. It may not be able to attack us physically.
It was a thought that only Faust, 8th in the world rankings, was a non-physical occupational user, and had seen more mental-type magic rather than orthodox attack-type magic.
‘If it’s an illusion, it will disappear as soon as it’s confirmed that it doesn’t exist. That is, when my attack goes through- or when it’s confirmed that
it could not attack us.’
The white lizard flicked its tongue and started casting a skill. Just in time, Bahamut slowly descended to the ground.
[Are you sure you don’t want to leave! Will you back off only after tasting fire!]
Hearing Bahamut’s last cry, Faust was certain. If it really was a dragon, it would not have given a warning before spewing fire!
“Bone-”
[Heuuuuuup-!]
Just as he was about to chant,
Bahamut inhaled. It lowered its head to the ground as if trying to blow away everything on the floor!
[Hwaaaaaaaa-
—–!]
Bahamut opened his mouth and turned his head. Towards both sides.
What came out was yellow and red flames. It was a dragon’s breath, so realistic and vividly colored flames spewed out.
“Grrrrrr!”
“Grrrrrrrr!”
And the fire burned the chimeras.
Not only were they in pain, but their bodies actually expanded and exploded, and all of the acidic venom evaporated and they died.
Faust was more surprised than anyone else.
It was able to attack!?
Explos-”
He had to cut his own words off, because he would have died if he didn’t!
Faust’s brain managed to control his
mouth.
Tsss, tsss, tsss- Retreaaaaaat!”
Shaaaaaaa-!
Scrolls were simultaneously ripped apart everywhere.
The Demon King’s army users retreated and disappeared in less than 3 seconds. The upright attitude was certainly that of the powerful.
When even Faust disappeared, the undead that lost their mana supply turned to dust- and broke down into
the earth.
After the Demon King’s army disappeared and the undead were destroyed, the only thing left was the chimeras, creatures that were outside of the range of mana.
“Grrrrr......
Fire continued to spew out from Bahamut’s mouth toward the remaining chimeras. Until the last one was destroyed.
[Huuu....]
After the death of the chimeras that could escape,
Bahamut sighed loudly.
And after a while, the huge body disappeared without a trace. No, there were traces.
The one who stood where Bahamut’s mouth used to be.
“Hwaa...... I barely made it.” Leeha, who was holding a strange object, was barely breathing.
