Chapter 187: Treasure Acquisition 4
Ku Kukung!
‘What is this? A golem made of steel?’
Behind Naga was a warrior class Gigant, Achilles . The Gigant, which had been quietly sleeping in the subspace bracelet along with Kratos, had been summoned by Luke .
Naga was terrified of what she saw . Suddenly, the Gigant attacked her .
“Kyaah!”
A Gigant could only move when there was a rider seated in the cockpit .
But since Gigants were developed based on golems, Luke was able to move them in a basic manner with his Marionette magic .
Surely the power it showed was much weaker than when one was directly riding in it, but it was enough to launch a surprise attack .
The heavy blows from the Gigant left a significant blow on Naga .
“Kuak! Kuaaahk!”
Slumped, Naga was coughing black blood .
Belfair, who was watching the battle nervously, fist-bumped with Sebastian .
Luke seemed like he might be able to win, and the blow taken by his senior was pretty great .
But Naga wasn’t dead yet, and she hadn’t displayed all of her power either .
“I am going to eat this human!”
“Huk! Master, avoid it!”
As Naga opened her mouth wide open, a green mist came out similar to a dragon’s Breath .
The green mist contained deadly poison . The grass and trees, which were touched by the mist, soon withered and died .
Even the steel glow of Achilles began to rust .
Luke had already caught on with what she might do and fled before Belfair could even warn him .
The problem, however, was he couldn’t avoid all of it because there was no direction at which she was releasing the poison .
‘I have to go up in the air to avoid it!’ Luke thought .
The poison left by Naga was much heavier than air, so it spread on the ground and wasn’t rising much .

Luke moved to the sky using his fly magic .
All of a sudden, Naga, who was on the ground, jumped toward Luke, who was flying in the air .
“Got you! Stupid human!”
With a smile on her face, her snake-like lower body wrapped itself around Luke . While trying to crush him to death, she tried to absorb Luke’s body moisture .
“I’ll turn you into a dry rag!” Said Naga while laughing .
“Master, Master!”
Sebastian and Belfair, who had avoided the poison because they were far away, seemed worried while looking at Luke .
If Luke died, they would surely be liberated, but it was still questionable if that scary woman, Naga, would leave them alone .
It was obvious that they chose the human over her .
‘No, if our master dies, it is the end for us!’
The two, thinking of the same thing, jumped straight up and rushed toward Naga . Sebastian sprinkled sand in Naga’s eyes, and Belfair stabbed Naga’s lower body .
However, their surprise attack didn’t save Luke . Rather, it only aroused Naga’s anger even more .
“How dare you!”
“Hiik! We were at fault!”
As Naga snarled at them, Sebastian raised the white flag of surrender .
However, Naga’s sword didn’t know how to forgive as it went up .
“Who told you to cut her?”
‘Uh?’
At the sudden voice, the two demons along with Naga were surprised .
With sharp sounds of something moving, the arms of Naga got cut off .
It helped Sebastian survive, Naga couldn’t help but look distorted .
It was Luke who appeared from behind and used his sword .
“Uh, how is this possible?! I am holding you…!” Screamed Naga .
“What you are doing holding is a piece of wood?”
At the words of Luke, Naga looked at what she was holding . Only to find a dry piece of wood .

“I am aware of your trickery . You would have surely guessed that I would have escaped into the air . ”
She did think that and spew the poison randomly .
Luke cast illusion magic on a piece of wood, which he got earlier . He transformed it into an image of himself and threw it into the sky .
And she did go catch the bait with her very own tail .
Luke flew into the sky with invisibility magic and aimed for the perfect time to cut her down, but he never thought that his slaves would step in .
“Give up . You don’t have any chance now . ” Luke told her .
“Kuk, do you think I will do that?!”
Naga once again tried to wrap Luke around her snake-like body .
At that very moment, Luke triggered the second phase of Build-up .
As soon as his strength and speed increased 3 times the normal one, he cut the body of Naga with the sword in her torso .
“Kiaaak!”
That left Naga shouting terrifying screams .
“Thank you for giving me a great combat experience . Now give me my food!”
Heeerk!
Black stems began to creep out of the ground and wrap themselves around Naga’s body .
She struggled to get out of them with all her might, but with every struggle, her energy was draining .
“No, please don’t! Save me! I’ll do anything you say! Please!”
Luke had already decided to not listen to Naga’s plea .
The infamous intermediate demon of the Devildom died as a sacrifice for Luke’s growth .
