Chapter 392: 392
“M, master!”
Hwang Bo-sung who was very close to his shattered Puppet saw the black rays passing through the tester and turned white .
‘Oh my! Master is hur…!’
Hwang Bo-sung seemed very desperate and rushed towards Arsene with a determination to end his life .
However, the fallen tester staggered and got up .
“M, Master!”
Unlike Hwang Bo-sung whose face lit up, Arsene spoke with a rather annoyed voice .
“You . Are . Still . Alive . Luck . Is . Riding . For . You!”
“Kuek, bastard!”
Luke, who got himself out of the twisted cockpit, managed to escape from the fatal wound and got out .
He was shocked by the tremendous attack which Gorgos released, and the power of the black rays really astounded Luke .
And as the rays began to advance towards Luke, instinctively, he had deployed shield .
It was the best defense magic possible, however, he got defeated .
‘I don’t know what it was, but it had the same amount of Magi like Black Abyss and was focused on one attack point . It is the souls around him which makes it easy for him to gather such a huge amount of Magi at once . ’
Luke was able to figure out how Arsene was able to launch such an attack .
Yet, it didn’t help him much in turning the game around .
With his current abilities, defeating Arsene was impossible .
‘Kuek! Is this my limit?’
He had finally managed to meet his 500 years back enemy, but the reality that he couldn’t win over him made him feel cold .
Yet, Luke was forced to admit the fact about the skill difference .
That was when a thought had passed through his mind .
‘Right, there is that way! But, if that doesn’t work…’
A few thoughts entered his mind, but Luke shook those off .
It was because there was exactly one method Luke could think of .
“Oh my, let’s see if the one who dies today is you or me!”
Luke rushed towards the Gorgos with an evil thought in mind .
As the broken Gigant faltered, Arsene who was still full of energy laughed .
“Kul . Kul . Kuk . Such . A . bug… wait?!”
Arsene’s eyed went wide .
It was because, Luke who went into his Gigant which was almost scrap-like, began to dazzle with a Gold aura similar to the sun .

‘How the hell…?’
“Uhahhhh!
Luke saved a city from the meteor falling during the Holy Empire’s civil war .
At that time, he activated the demon’s abilities and the gold aura at the same time .
He was thinking of gambling with that card .
The 3rd phase Build-up boosted his potential to the maximum, and the gold aura was also released to the maximum .
While both the Gold Aura and the demon abilities were being used to their highest, the pain and suffering Luke felt was too huge .
However, the will to defeat Arsene made him disregard the pain .
‘T, this is dangerous!’
When Arsene realized that he was in danger, he tried to escape . Luke broke the half-broken sword and threw it .
Arsene, who had a fake body got the sword pierced into Gorgos’s torso before Arsene could even run .
Kwaang!
Along with the gold aura which was flashing like the sun, clouds began to rise in the air .
Heat and dust began to spread all over the place .
Flustered with Gorgos’s death, Hwang Bo-sung and Zegal clan members bent down .
However, the heat did no harm to them .
Rather it was a huge help to them .
“The poison is disappearing?”
“Really?! How did that happen…?”
At their delight, they even saw the body of Gorgos getting melted like wax .
Luke’s gambling seemed to be a success .
Along with the tester, the Puppets which weren’t his enemies too were beginning to get engulfed in the heat .
‘Are we… going to win?’
Their faces were anticipating a win but soon changed .
It was because immediately after the body of Gorgos got melted, the white smoke melted was revealing the grey-robed skeleton once again .
It was Arsene .
Despite the strong blow, he revived himself once again .
“How . Dare . You . Do . That . To . My . Ghost . Armor!”
“…”
Arsene was shaking with anger, however, there was no reaction from the broken tester .
Luke, who had just used all of his power for the previous attack was exhausted and lost consciousness .
He was in no state to face Arsene .
“I will . Never . Forgive . You! Lose . Your . Body . But . I will . Tear . Your . Soul . Apart!”
Magi began to burst out of Arsene’s body .
Zegal clan members had their hands on their swords, but none of them were able to draw them out .

The bloody terrifying Magi Arsene was releasing turned their bodies stiff, making them unable to move, regardless of their wishes .
‘In this world, no matter how many are killed, there are monsters which will survive again and again!’
‘Ah, I am sure that this is the end!’
When people were all preparing to see their end .
“Please Wait . ”
A gentle voice echoed through the sky, Arsene was the most surprised and turned .
Which made him look at the old monk in shabby clothes standing before him .
“Oh, he is…!”
Zegal Moon, who recognized the man, spoke in a low voice .
Hwang Bo-sung and the other members were puzzled that they didn’t know the man, but they were able to know that the victory was on their side .
It was because their bodies moved once again after Arsene had suppressed their magic .
“Keuk, you…”
“It is Saint Nanda . ”
Arsene’s eyes changed when the man told his name .
He had heard the name from Hwang Bo-kwang . He was known to be the monk from the Bharat Empire, a high priest or saint with godlike abilities .
‘He is Nanda? He doesn’t seem to be a huge deal?’
Arsene thought that the man would be scary or mysterious since he was claimed to be a god-like man .
But from Nanda, no energy could be felt .
Rather, it made Arsene more flustered . Because the man could possess a power that Arsene wasn’t aware of .
“What . Is . It? Came . To . Get . Rid . Of me?”
“I don’t like to kill . And I know everything about physical pain, but I have no power to defeat you . ”
“Kul . Then . Why?”
“But for a few moments, I will be stopping your evil deeds . ”
“What . Did . You say?”
Arsene couldn’t understand .
How could a person who had no power inside them, defeat him?
‘Well, another irritating man . I will get rid of him before he does anything strange…’
Arsene reached out to blow off Nanda with dark magic .
But in the blink of an eye, Nanda approached him and grabbed his hand .
Flustered, Arsene quickly shook off Nanda’s hand .
However, the real surprise came next .
Without any new feeling, the landscape around him had changed .
It wasn’t the region of the collapsed Zegal Clan, but a cold sea that had huge icebergs floating in front of them .
‘Uh, this is! No way, the North Ice ocean?!’
The Ice Ocean was located to the north of the Rhodesia continent, farther north .
And he was standing in the middle of the Ice Ocean .
He tried closing and opening his eyes several times, but the scenery didn’t change .
‘Hallucinations . He is trying to deceive me with hallucination . ’
Arsene who thought so tried to dispel the illusion which he thought was around him by creating Magi fire .
But the only things which changed were the collapsing icebergs and drifting ice .
No matter how much Magi he used, the scene in front of his eyes didn’t change .
It wasn’t an illusion, but a reality .
“Ku . Uh . Uh . Uh! Nanda . Ah . Ah . Ah!”
Arsene whose anger reached the limit wanted to take down the man, but Nanda was nowhere to be found .
Arsene’s struggles echoed through the ocean numerous times where only the sounds of ice winds and waves could be heard .
“Hyung, what just happened?”
The question from Zegal Do couldn’t be easily answered .
Nanda had approached Arsene and then the two disappeared .
“Uhm, well…”
It was when Zegal Moon thought of what could have happened, and Nanda’s voice came from behind .
“You don’t have to worry anymore . He won’t be coming here for a while . ”
As he turned, he saw Nanda .
Arsene’s image was nowhere next to them, so it seemed clear that Nanda did receive an awakening regarding the physical pain .
Zegal Moon who felt relieved sighed and bowed to Nanda .
“Thank you very much, Saint . ”
“Everything happened as it should have . You need to thank the man who brought over this old man here . ”
“Ah, now that you say, the grace…”
Zegal Moon turned towards Luke .
Hwang Bo-sung and Soha were able to pull out Luke from his broken Gigant .
“He is alive . He is just exhausted and lost his consciousness!”
At the words from Soha, Zegal Moon sighed with relief .
“Hurry and take the grace inside!”
“Yes, brother!”
The party of Zegal Moon moved Luke to the cave where the injured men were evacuated to .
“The Saint will come too . ”
At the words of Zegal Moon, Nanda began to move complying with his words .
The disaster which almost wiped them all had settled .
