252 Ancient Spirits (1)

"Phew…."

Close your eyes.

I took a deep breath and focused my mind.

'The power of fire.'

Bloop!

The yellow fireworks burned. The power of Marmon, now accustomed to it.

An intense flame from the fingertips swallowed up the surroundings.

Iron Buck. The Magma River melts and the earth and rocks melt in an instant.

'The power of the blade.'

It overlaps other powers with the power of the Grand Duke.

Basically 6. If you put together up to 7 possible combinations of powers, only two reach the limit.

"Argh."

My head gets hot and my vision is distorted.

The combination of Grand Duke power and general power had much to do with Magi and little to do with it.

A fight of pure control.

'Still.'

It was much better when the first two powers were mixed.

Inferno, which was difficult to maintain at that time for 3 seconds, can now be maintained for more than 30 seconds.

'As long as you can.'

Slowly open your eyes and focus your mind.

I can't breathe properly.

My legs flutter and my heart aches as if Magi were rushing right away.

'Just a little more.'

Margie just before the storm.

I was accustomed to controlling this much magi right now.

'I can do more.'

Cold sweated.

Magi fluctuated throughout the body, causing the skin to swell up.

A tremendous gust of anger swept across the body.

The moment I was a little careful, the conscious string seemed to break.

But it is.

Nevertheless.

'More.'

It doesn't stop.

He never stopped.

I don't compromise. I don't yield.

I don't hesitate.

To higher ground, to more distant ground.

Forward. Forward.

Bloop!!!

Chiyagi profits.

The sword that exudes a fiery yellow flame takes its full form.

The unstable flame of censorship firmly fixed its shape.

['Inferno' Skill Achievement has increased!]

[Increases the power of 'Inferno' skill and decreases the Magi control needed to maintain it.]

"Phew."

As soon as I saw the message window in front of my eyes, I released my power.

The sword of Fierce Yellow Flame melts into the air.

String.

[Parent quest of 'The Way to Drink'??? You got a clue of '.]

"Again."

Rain murmured with a dull expression as if I was tired now.

A month after a short break, he became immersed in a full-scale Magi control boost.

At the same time, I was still getting clues to what the top quest was.

"No, every time I get it, I get it." 'Please remove at least one.'

I cleared the message box as if it bothers me too.

"Well, then..."

Now that the power of Mamon is over, the next time is the power of Satan.

Rain has given rise to the power of despair.

"Argh...."

My head got hot again.

Only one power has been created, but Satan's power is still lacking in skill.

More time was needed to get used to it.

"Just a little more…."

"Mr. Rain."

"Huhuup!"

I was pale with the sound of rain in the back.

I turned my head, shaking less.

There was a place where she turned her head, where there was a rather inviting beauty with black hair coming down to her waist.

"What's going on?"

He calmed down his trembling body and asked.

Reese bows her head and speaks.

"I came to see you because I have something to report."

"Are you talking about that Calcia guy?"

The last remaining status of evil, Calcia.

Reese has been chasing him hard over the past month, including the Guardians, but his whereabouts are still ducky.

Reese shakes her head.

"No. I don't think Calcia..."

"Yeah?"

The intuitive rainfall, which meant the story would be a little longer, struck me lightly.

The earth splits and rocks rise up.

Reese gives a drink to a rainbow sitting on a rock.

Blue drink on the market.

"……."

The rains opened their eyes narrowly and blew Leeds away.

"You don't think it's weird to get around here?"

"Hohoho. No."

Reese shakes her head, covering her mouth.

"I was angry with Mr. Rain the other day. I won't do that in the future."

"... Well, I wish I knew."

The rain trembled as if I could recall a month ago.

A twisted sensation just by thinking.

"So, what's going on?"

"You've been seeing demons at the gate for a long time."

"... I did."

The rain nodded with a heavy expression.

Demon of Prophecy, Satan.

The Guyanese system, the shield that protects the Earth, was destroyed as he forcibly opened a dimensional crack in hell and moved to Earth.

Extremely weakened dimensional wall.

Because of this, demons or demons, apart from summoning demons, were barely appearing through the gates.

'You scumbag.'

His fist is clenched and his anger rises.

How much blood and tears flowed from his twisted desire to occupy the Earth.

Even now, the damaged Guyanese system has not been restored.

No, I even heard it was getting weaker.

Blade wound will disappear when it breaks.

The same goes for the broken Guyanese system.

The devil who worsened the wound was not healed.

"Did you get a little strong this time?"

Looks like he showed up pretty strong enough to report it to him.

Rain asked after drinking the sports drink that Reese handed over.

"We don't know the exact situation yet... but it looks like an ancient beast appeared at a gate in Florida, United States."

"... Ancient Spirits?"

Rain frowned.

Ancient beast.

An object that is extremely rarely intelligent among non-intelligent monsters.

However, even though he had intelligence, the properties of the evil were not completely lost.

It is also for that reason that we do not go out after we have formed a certain habitat.

'I've only heard about ancient monsters.'

I have never actually seen it.

There are two main reasons for this:

One was that there was no need to fight, and the second was that the risk was too great to fight.

Demons basically overwhelm demons with physical specs.

Just as humans are less physically capable than predators like lions and tigers.

It is monstrous enough to actually fight against the Grand Duke in one go.

'I told you before that ancient monsters are showing strange movements.'

The words of Doomguard and Valoc came to mind.

But even so, I didn't expect the presence of the Ancient Demon class to appear at the gate.

It was part of how serious the Guyanese system was.

"Do you know who's here?"

"Perhaps... Halkion has appeared."

"Halkion."

It's a name I've heard before.

I also tried to summon using the Demon Summon attribute before.

'Oh, I see.'

I recently remembered that I completely forgot to summon the Beast.

"Well…."

I was briefly troubled.

'What the hell are you going to get when you summon him now?'

Rather, Magi was more numerous than when he was the ruler of the nine heavens and hell.

"……."

I kept my mouth firmly shut.

It was not easy to imagine what would be summoned.

I remembered what Lady Benigore said.

The outside gods are less constrained by the system.

God outside. Outer God.

A god of emptiness that exists in an infinite alien world, not in a bordering world such as Wong and Ernor.

Shiva, you're not really summoning me, are you? '

The possibility could not be ruled out completely.

It was also a direct warning from Lady Benigore, but now the Guyanese system is weaker as the presence of the Ancient Evil Clan easily slips over the gate.

'When you summon a god.'

Screw it.

Nothing to think about.

Even if you have the power to defeat that god.

The closely held Guyanese system is torn apart, resulting in irreversible catastrophes.

'Once on hold.'

It is a matter of moderate control of Margie, but there is no reason to take the risk.

The moderately controlled power is no longer meaningful.

"What about the damage?"

"So far, nothing but the first six-person party I've ever seen. One of them was seriously injured, but somehow survived."

"First, control the gate."

"Hehe. It's already under control. I controlled the media and prevented as much as possible from spreading the word."

Quick release-down workflow.

The rain nodded.

"Ancient Demon. '

In fact, catching the Ancient Demon was not profitable at the moment.

Because the power of predation could not be used because Magi control was near the limit.

'Let's think of it as an investment for later.'

It was impossible to eat ancient monsters right now, but it was possible to compress Magi like Belpegor and make it available for later consumption.

'And.'

Even if I didn't have the advantage, I couldn't let the ancient beast leap through the gates.

It is obvious that an enormous catastrophe will occur if we get out of the gate.

"Let's leave immediately tomorrow."

"What do we do about Punitive Force personnel?"

"Balok and I, two is enough."

If the Ancient Demon is the source of the Great Supply according to the rumors, it is rather impeded to rush to Urr.

Even Kim Shi Hun thought about it, but this time Balok was a decent person.

'It would be annoying to hide the refining of the body with jewels.'

Kim Shi Hoon doesn't know that he eats demons and builds strength.

Normally, we could secretly use the power of predation to cause the corpse to scatter like dust, but that's not possible right now.

"Very well. Then I will activate the gate that passes directly from the Hall of Guards."

"Oh, do you know anything about Halkion?"

The battle against the Ancient Demon was the first of its kind.

I liked to know as much as I could.

"Mm-hmm."

Reese submerges her thoughts with her fingers on her lips.

"I've never seen it myself... but I heard it was a very horrible creature."

"You look terrible?"

"Yes, it's the most disgusting creature in hell."

"Ha."

Laughter flowed out.

What the fuck does he look like? '

What could possibly happen to hear the devil's most disgusting words?

'You should be able to understand the demon's aesthetic standards.'

Even if it were Reese, she wouldn't be honored as the best beauty in hell.

"You look like a human being in reverse here? '

I asked Reese if he liked it.

"Reese. Do you feel disgusted when you see humans?"

"Yes? No. I don't think so."

Reese shakes her head.

"I don't mean to distinguish between handsome and ugly, but it doesn't look disgusting."

"Mm-hmm."

Nod.

'How does it feel to see animals as people?'

It's hard to tell between a handsome lion and an ugly lion, but doesn't it feel disgusting?

I thought it was just that sensation.

"Well, I don't care how horrible and disgusting it looked."

I laughed.

"Are you sure you're okay? I heard that even demons lose their minds when they see the Halkion.."

"Don't worry."

Rain grabbed Reese's shoulders and said.

No matter how disgusting and horrible it looked, there was no problem at all.

"Because they're trained."

He spoke with a voice full of himself.
