Chapter 192: Spirit Contract (2) 

She lowered her body slightly and scratched the skin of the man in the lead . It wasn’t a fatal injury but the scratch on his cheek was bleeding .

“Shit! This bitch is crazy!”

The man whose face was scratched burst out . He never imagined a surprise attack .

It was a pity for Kim Yura . He was hurt but wouldn’t have any problems moving . In the end, it seemed like a situation where she had to deal with eight people .

‘Holy Armour . ’

It was a skill that surrounded her body in holy power . In fact, Kim Yura awakened as a Saintess but she didn’t have any attack skills . Healing and defense were the main ones .

Holy Armour wrapped a wall around her that minimized damage . A unique rated skill . A decent Awakened wouldn’t be able to leave a scratch on her .

Kim Yura moved with the armour around her body .

“Eh eh? What is this?”

"The knife isn’t going in!”

The men panicked as the knife didn’t pierce the skin . Meanwhile, Kim Yura moved the knife and stabbed a man’s thigh .

"Kuaack!”

The stabbed man sat down .

It was possible to take his life but Kim Yura stopped, believing that was enough to stop him fighting .

‘I can do it . ’

Gulp!

She swallowed her saliva . It was the first time she had to take care of people like this . Her life, along with her sister’s was at risk . Her sister couldn’t run away so she needed to handle it as quickly as possible .

“T-that bitch . . . ”

At this point, the men couldn’t easily rush towards her . They thought she was a cornered deer or mouse, only to find out differently .

"What are you doing against a woman? Pull yourselves together, you idiots!”

The man with his thigh stabbed cried out loudly . The confused group immediately changed attitudes . They had needed to survive in a world of creatures .

They instinctively sensed danger from Kim Yura . The men realized there was no chance of victory if they didn’t move .

“Hah, hah . . . !”

Kim Yura panted harshly .

It was fortunate that the level of the male Awakened were below average . They were hunting civilians but . . . Kim Yura, who awakened as a Saintess, was different from them .

If she had a little more experience then they wouldn’t have gotten this far .

The men’s expressions changed over time .

As one, two and three men fell, they couldn’t ignore her anymore .

Kim Yura licked her lips and took a stance .

"If you approach then I will kill you . ”

It was the first time that she had blood on her hands . She tried to stop her hands from trembling .

She glared poisonously at the men .

It was a world where only the strong survived .

The weak were killed . Even if they were weak, being able to survive until now was enough to be considered strong .

"Saintess-nim, look here . ”

It was at that moment . She was confronting the five men when she heard a voice behind her . She turned around . . . she saw the first man she stabbed with a knife to Min-ji’s neck .

An ordinary person wouldn’t be able to move easily with a stabbed thigh, but Kim Yura had overlooked that he was an Awakened . She had placed an Awakened on the same level as the general public .

"Put the knife down . Yes? You wouldn’t want marks on the pretty neck of your sister . ”

“Ah . . . ”

The villages knew how much Kim Yura took care of her sister . The flustered faces of the men started to recover .

Kim Yura’s face paled . It was the end the moment she put down the knife . For her and her sister . However, she couldn’t let her sister be harmed .

“Eh eh? You’re not putting it down? Should I show Saintess-nim her blood?”

“Stop! I am putting it down . Down . . . ”

Kim Yura closed her eyes at the man’s intimidation . She slowly placed the small knife on the floor .

At that moment, the men ran up to Kim Yura and pushed her to the ground .

Kim Yura sensed her future . She could take damage to her body but her sister was the problem .

"My sister . . . don’t touch my sister . ”

"It depends on how sweetly Saintess-nim submits to us . Isn’t that right, friends?”

"Yes yes . ”

"We won’t kill you . ”

The man holding her sister hostage shrugged and the others agreed . However, their eyes still weren’t normal .

“Ah, God . ’

Would it have been better to avoid the people when she smelt blood?

Or was treating injured people a sin . . .

All the good people died . All that was left in the world were those who sinned . She shouldn’t have trusted, it was her mistake .

She didn’t know why this was happening to her and her sister .

-Do you want to contract with me?

At that moment, a voice was heard in her head .

'Hallucination?’

-I am Rei . A proud name my father gave me . If you form a contract with me then I will defeat all those humans .

The voice she was hearing became more evident .

It was a girl’s voice . However, there was no girl in the area .

-Quickly . It will be too late soon . It will be different .

There was a possibility that was a hallucination caused by her own desire . However, she was already on a cliff .

“The contract . . . I agree . ”

Hwaruruk!

At the end of her words, flames appeared out of thin air .

“Fire?”

"Ack!"

The flames grew largely and started to swallow up the men . It was so powerful that their skin was quickly melted .

"W-what? Shit! What is this?”

The man holding the knife to Kim Min-ji’s neck was dismayed as he saw the other men killed by the flames . He tried to escape but couldn’t run quickly due to his thigh .

“Aaaaack!”

The flames burned the last man .

The flames moved in front of Kim Yura and transformed into a female .

"I am pleased to meet you, despite the urgent situation . As I said before, my name is Rei . What is Contractor’s name?”

It happened in an instant .

Kim Yura had barely recovered her mental state . She replied in a terrified voice .

“Yu . . . ra . Kim Yura . ”

“Kim Yura! Let’s do our best in the future . ”

The beautiful girl with hair made of flames smiled .

I was watching the scene from afar .

Intermediate or lower ranked spirits had to sign a contract before they could be seen . Despite already having a contract with me, they weren’t capable of showing themselves to others without a contractor .

‘Kim Yura will stand out thanks to the spirit contract . ’

Kim Yura the Saintess . She would attract people’s attention everywhere she went . After Rei, the spirits would continue to extend their contracts among the humans .

I decided not to intervene and gave Rei full authority .

The more that the spirits contracted with humans, the stronger my forces would become .

‘I wish there was a way to obtain spirits with other attributes . ’

In order to do that, I needed to raise the fire spirits properly . It wouldn’t be difficult to enter the Spirit World and I could use them to appeal to other spirit kings .

I would also receive additional rewards if I returned the fire spirits that I raised .

There were many things that would benefit me if I looked ahead .

'Now I need to go see Maxium . There is currently a truce between Upa and Aiel so I need to help . ’

Upa and Ariel .

Upa had the advantage so I added Maxium to balance the odds .

And Maxium lost a lot of power while trying to hinder Upa .

If I didn’t refill his troops while there was a truce, there would no longer be another chance .

'Five million points should be enough . ’

I calculated the points I would use to buy additional troops for Maxium and moved back to the dungeon .

Troops could be purchased from the Achievements Store .

It contained a number of the Hell Monarch’s treasures, with many of them not being opened yet .

‘The treasure is further divided into warehouses and opening them requires points or achievement points . ’

I touched my jaw .

Hell Monarch’s warehouse . There were multiple warehouses . Not all of them were released immediately . It took a considerable amount to open the warehouses so I had placed them on hold .

‘I won’t need to use points for a while, so it wouldn’t be bad to open one . ’

I looked through the long list .

[Sealed Warehouse List]

-Opening the sealed warehouses can be purchased using points .

Magic Weapons Warehouse – 1,500 achievement points or 2,500,000pt

Unknown Secret Warehouse – 2,000 achievement points or 3,200,000pt

Scrolls Warehouse – 1,000 achievement points or 2,000,000pt

Skeleton Soldiers’ Warehouse – 2,500 achievement points or 4,000,000pt

. . . . . .

I had around 10,000 achievement points . My normal points were around 15 million . It wasn’t at a level where opening one warehouse would be a burden .

'Maxium needs soldiers . Skeletons will be perfect . ’

There were few skeleton soldiers . Most magicians were reluctant to release their recipe for creating them .

However, there was a high probability that there would be general skeleton soldiers in the warehouse .

‘I need to open the Skeleton Soldiers’ Warehouse . ’

-4,000,000pt have been used to unlock the ‘Skeleton Soldiers’ Warehouse . ’

The Achievements Store will list the types of soldiers stored in the Skeleton Soldiers’ Warehouse .

I nodded . I used normal points to unlock the seal for the warehouse .

Another list appeared in front of me .

[Skeleton Soldiers’ Warehouse]

Skeleton Warlock – 100 achievement points or 100,000pt

Skeleton Guardian – 300 achievement points or 400,000pt

Chaos Soldier – 1,000 achievement points or 1,300,000pt

Bone Dragon (2) – 3,000 or 4,000,000pt
