Chapter 287: Akshan is Hungry (2)



Now, let's compare the power.

The opponent is a great evil, the Seven Deadly Sins Envy.

He's absorbed so much negative emotion that he's like meat on water. As if that weren't bad enough, he's transformed the field and has the advantage of his home ground, Hidden Piece.

On the other side is me.

I am the commander, wearing the jacket of dawn.

Roughly a dozen Akshans have risen from the depths of hell.

And a group of Shadow Mercenaries who are slowly coming to their senses.

'That's a short list for a raid.'

Back when Arcana was just a game.

I was ignorant of boss raids.

It wasn't just my level, which was barely around level 50, but my class, the Demon Hunter, was the root cause. I got kicked out of parties, and raids sucked.

But weren't there other players who had been there?

'Nam Taemin, Hisagi, Leonie, Schreig....'

Ranked players from the past.

Since the beginning of the Holy War Alliance.

I had learned their knowledge by looking over their shoulders.

That's why I know how rushed and poorly organized the current Seven Deadly Sins Envy Raid is.

I'm well aware of its meager resources.

'If I can't do it, a hundred people can.'

Boss monsters are on a different level.

Unless there is an overwhelming difference in power, the number of players must support it.

The most important feature of a boss monster is its health.

Envy speaks up.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

"I was wondering how the dead Akshan was resurrected...."

You're a great evil, and you've got a great mind.

"After all, aren't they the ones who fell to hell?" Hell.

The place where demons fall.

So, no, [Akshan's Upkeep] isn't just a skill that allows you to summon a fallen Akshan demon hunter. More precisely, it summons demon hunters who peer into the abyss to hunt demons, only to end up becoming demons themselves and falling into Hell.

'Sword Saint, like Shegwin.'

Envy chuckled.

"Interesting."

No, it was more than a laugh.

"You can drag me to hell if you want."

He chuckled, barely able to breathe.

"You have nothing left of your former fame but misery!"

I understand that assessment.

If it were a great evil, the perspective would be different.

A demon hunter who's been corrupted into a demon and sent to hell?

It might seem ridiculous.

But you don't know, do you?

What is happening in hell at this moment.

"You're a demon because you're so ignorant."

Because you've never been to hell.

Of course, I haven't experienced hell either.

But I have.

Unlike you, I have experience.

The experience of sweating without missing a single day...!

"Do not take human pride lightly."

Even if it leads to hell.

The Akshan spirit never forgets.

Yes, it is the spirit of hard work that is imprinted on the body.

Our Akshan seniors must have developed [Tenacity] through repeated physical training in hell. I know what [Tenacity] can do, having trained with them to the limit.

[Tenacity: Converts mental strength into stats. Each increase in Tenacity grants an additional increase in converted stats].

In addition.

Unlike me, you have been hunting demons who have fallen to hell forever. Even if, in the past, you were corrupted into demons and fell to hell.

Sereung-

This means that each and every one of them has no choice but to be a demon hunter who boasts supreme skills. As if to prove it, Akshan seniors kicked the ground and ran out.

Bam!

I hear a lively reaction to their movements.

"...Who are they, sir?"

"Where did those humans come from?"

"I've never seen an Arcanian

that...?"

The Shadow Mercenaries came to their senses after Wolf and Alkari.

It's a sight to behold, even if you're empty-handed.

Unmeasurable [Tenacity].

That tenacity transformed into [Strength] and [Agility].

And the experience of a skilled demon hunter.

"Do you think something changes when you charge in?"

The ten demon hunters pressed down on Envy as one.

There's no such thing as being caught off guard by a provocation.

Demon habits.

Demon hunters know them better than anyone.

"...!"

Envy's body flinches.

With that body that can be manipulated freely, you can enjoy it.

It looks like they were just waiting for an opportunity to snatch it.

I told you, right?

"They're not normal.

Clang.

Push.

Pow!

A series of processes without the slightest hesitation.

It was an unbelievable simplicity of action for those who were truly in the presence of a great evil. A literal hunt. Akshan's seniors hunting a great evil as if it were just another day's work.

Yoon Soogyeom looked at Sung Hyunjoon.

He asked with a look.

Why on earth, what kind of wind is blowing all of a sudden?

Raymond Sean had always shown a favorable attitude towards mankind. Just look at the way

he's been providing updates and offering players huge rewards for clearing the Rift.

Sung continued.

"He doesn't want to go with the flow.""

"Flow?"

"The changes led by General Manager Lee Hoyeol."

"!!!!"

Lee Hoyeol.

General Manager of Yusra.

I knew he didn't like Raymond Sean.

Not even the huge Rift rewards that players could only dream of.

To the general manager, it is nothing more than a meaningless pursuit of wealth and fame.

He'd always said that.

However, it wasn't until after the confrontation with....

"Because there was an obvious conflict over the connector."

Raymond Sean's battle over the connector.

That's when Hoyeol threw cold water on it.

A voice came from the back.

"To put it simply, it's a battle of wills?"

"... Mr. Park?"

"Don't be a jerk. There's no need to greet him. Go ahead, Sung Hyunjoon." "Ah, yes."

Sung continued to speak.

From the world's reaction to the situation.

Even Heavenly Unity, the only one on the opposite side of the line from Hoyeol.

But the point remains the same.

"He's clearly threatening humanity, that asshole."

Raymond Sean.

His intentions were clear to see.

He's trying to use the information in the update history to shake Hoyeol's position. To

destroy the infinite trust the world has in Hoyeol.

'What a disgusting bastard, you are.'

Yoon Soogyeom nods in understanding.

"Then the appearance of the great evil, the Seven Deadly Sins Envy, is a kind of declaration of war."

A warning to mankind that doesn't follow his will.

AAU knew the importance of information better than anyone.

If Raymond Sean hadn't provided an update.

Humanity would have been wiped out by rift erosion long ago.

In that sense, it was extremely frustrating.

Park Minjae grits his teeth.

"Even if the bastard threatens...."

Demonic monsters.

There was no data about them, even within the AAU.

Now that they were the main enemy.

The value of the information provided by Raymond Shen was bound to be great.

"Isn't this beyond filthy, it's a foul play?"

They were not the only ones who knew that.

The governments, the players, even the players themselves.

If they realized that the reason for this was the confrontation between Hoyeol and Raymond

Sean.

'Arrows may be pointed at you, General Manager....'

It was a damned tight situation.

Great Evil.

It's definitely a force to be reckoned with.

I could tell by the fact that it had posted an appearance message in the Zero Mountains.

'Even if you're the general manager....'

You're bound to have a hard time against this great evil.

That's what Raymond Sean is aiming for.

The moment the world sees Hoyeol's struggle with the demon with no information about it.

The trust in Hoyeol will be shattered.

Soon, the news is breaking.

"The location of the great evil has been captured!"

The AAU pinpoints the great evil's location in the Zero Mountains.

The image of the great evil appears on a large monitor.

And then.

"!!!!"

All worries turned out to be just unfounded.

"...Now, just a moment!"

It's been said that mankind knows nothing about demons.

If there's anyone more fluent in demons than Raymond Sean.

A gap in information becomes meaningless.

A noisy crowd-

"Where have I seen that outfit before...?"

"It's so big, and most of all, that crossbow."

"Hey, is that wolf over there...?!"

Yep.

More fluent in demons than Raymond Sean.

A being that has no choice but to do so based on its instincts.

"Oh, isn't that an Akshan wolf?!"

The natural enemy of demons.

Akshans.

Because they have signaled the beginning of resurrection.

Pooosh-!
