Chapter 94: 94

The creation of this replica of the Dragon Slaying Spear was Kim Dae-ho’s doing . The spear was the most powerful and highly utilized assistant weapon that Su-hyeun could use . Throwing it increased the power, which helped to compensate for the short-range of the sword .

The ordinary spears were not powerful enough . Additionally, it was difficult to collect them back after throwing them . It was usually for a one-shot weapon . Therefore, Su-hyeun preferred to use the Dragon Slaying Spear the most . It was powerful and could cover a wide-range . It was also a one-time use weapon anyway, so he did not have to worry about getting it back .

However, it was a pain to purchase one-shot items every time only with achievement points . Thus, Su-hyeun had brought the Dragon Slaying Spear to Kim Dae-ho and asked him to make a similar item .

“He used to make exactly the same…,” Su-hyeun thought .

Tightly gripping the spear, he looked down the monsters from the sky and bent his body like a bow .

“I wonder how he did this time . ”

Whirl!

The Dragon Slaying Spear began to absorb Su-hyeun’s magic and reacted to it as if it were alive, gaining more power . It was perfect so far . Now, all that was left was to confirm it . He did not have to count to three as usual . There were too many targets . He could just throw his spear anywhere among the monsters .

Bam!

He threw the spear like a bow . The spear flew out and made an explosion sound . The spear could not handle the speed and started to split into thousands and tens of thousands of shards .

Boom!

The spear spat out the magic it had consumed . The split Dragon Slaying Spear bombed a bunch of monsters .

Kiyaaa—!

Screams were everywhere . It was chaos . Su-hyeun came back down to the ground . He realized once again about the power of the Dragon Slaying Spear . Consuming too much magic was a disadvantage, but the power itself was astonishing .

Grrr, Grrrk!

Narr, narr!

The monsters that had been swept away by the spear stood up back, limping on one or two legs . Half of them were still alive . It looked like it did not have enough power .

“He is not as good as his heyday,” Su-hyeun thought and looked down at his hand, “…well, I’m the same way . ”

Both Kim Dae-ho’s crafting skill and Su-hyeun’s skill were far short of his heyday . His Magic Power and Factor were much lower than in his previous life . It was natural that the power would vary depending on who used the same weapon .

“Miru . ”

Purr?

Su-hyeun called Miru . The monsters suddenly flinched as they rose .

Su-hyeun looked at such monsters and said to Miru, “Can you do it one more time?”

Purr!

It answered with spirit as if telling to leave it to him . Su-hyeun felt a little sorry to ask because Miru was able to use the Breath skill only once or twice . When he used his breath twice, he sank into exhaustion . It was very powerful, but Miru had to use up all of his remaining power .

“Well, then…”

Tramp, tramp!

Su-hyeun stared at Druid, who began to walk out among the monsters .

“Let’s fight between boss to boss,” Su-hyeun said .

“You…go…back…”

“You said earlier that I am just a quarry . ”

Whiz!

Su-hyeun rushed to the front . His physical abilities were strengthened by the characteristics of the Imoogi and the buff effects of Miru . Now, he could jump at least ten meters in one step .

Boom!

The giant Druid pushed back . It lifted its arms and guarded, but there was a deep scar left on its arms .

“Now you want me to go back?”

Su-hyuen’s voice came from the right side . Druid strained its eyes in surprise . When it turned its head to the right, the sword emerged from the opposite direction .

Slash!

The sword deeply cut through the leather . Su-hyeun could not cut all the way because Druid was too big . Regardless, he made numerous scars on its side .

“You…”

Whirl!

The bright red magic rose around Druid .

“Die…”

Ka-boom!!

Druid’s red magic exploded and turned the grass into ash . Su-hyeun quickly jumped back and recalled Druid’s ability .

“It usually uses magic to fight . Its defensive ability is coming from the leather that it is wearing . Its physical ability is better than other green dungeon bosses, but it doesn’t use it . And…”

Boom, boom, boom!

The dead monster behind Su-hyeun exploded . Su-hyeun warily looked at the bodies around him .

“If I can’t dodge all this, then I should instead…,” he thought .

The plan was drawn in his head . It was not difficult to practice .

Wham!

Su-hyeun began to rush back to Druid . As the distance between them decreases, Druid stretched its arm again . For Druid, this battlefield was the best stage .

Boom, boom, boom!

Bam!

The bodies of monsters everywhere exploded one by one . Flesh and blood splattered all over the scene as heat filled the air . The debris flew, but it was not regular debris . Each one of them was filled with magic . It attacked Su-hyeun, but Su-hyeun did not avoid it . Druid saw Su-hyeun with its own eyes .

“Why…didn’t…you…dodge…?” Druid said .

“Because there is no reason to do it . ”

Whiz!

Su-hyeun’s body emerged from the fog emitted from the monsters’ corpses .

[Indomitable body . ]

[The transfiguration skill: Imoogi . ]

All Su-hyeun could do was endure it . He didn’t have much time, so he could not afford to avoid all the dead bodies . Also, he was sure that he could endure it enough . It was a judgment that could be made because he knew both his ability objectively and the monster, Druid .

Slash, slash!

Su-hyeun closed the distance and started to cut into Druid’s body . Although it was specialized in long-range magic, Druid was still the boss of a blue-colored dungeon . The physical ability was pretty high as well, so Druid could avoid Su-hyeun’s sword without causing fatal wounds by a whisker .

“Stop…him…”

At Druid’s command, monsters flew again from all sides . It looked like Druid chose to gather more monsters rather than to directly fight Su-hyeun .

“Miru . ”

Swoosh!

At that moment, Druid lifted its head . The small dragon, who had been silent for a while, was preparing for a second breath .

“Sweep them all . ”

Whoosh!

At that moment, a white fire flashed and swept everywhere .

Whiz!

Crack!

Druid hurriedly pulled its head back . At the same time, Su-hyeun swung his sword to the mask of Druid . The mask cracked and Druid’s face was revealed; it was a handsome man’s face with golden eyes .

“Whose face is this now?”

“Don’t…kill…me…,” Druid said .

“You are too loud . ”

Slash!

Su-hyeun’s sword pierced Druid’s head .

“I can’t talk long . People are waiting for me . ”

***

“Huh… Ha…”

“Phew…”

“Damn it… How many are there?”

There were numerous bodies of monsters around the raid team . They had been killing many monsters, but there were still many of them left . It was their first time fighting with this many monsters for all of them . Jordan looked back at the team . Everyone looked tired .

“We won’t last long…,” Jordan thought .

They had been fighting for a while . Both stamina and magic wore out . Jordan and other above A-Rank awakeners could still fight more, but the others could not . Most of them were exhausted .

“Should we run away?” he thought .

This would be the last chance to make that decision . If he would order to retreat, half of the team might survive .

“Damn it . ”

That meant half of them might die . It was a dilemma, a moment when Jordan could not decide with a conflicted mind .

“L-look…”

Hak-Joon, who had been leading the team with Jordan, raised his hand and pointed to the front . Jordan could not understand what Hak-Joon said, but he looked where he pointed .

“The monsters…”

Grrr!

Screech! Screech!

The monsters that had been attacking them systematically suddenly looked distracted . They looked around and soon scattered away .

“Did he…?”

Jordan’s eyes widened, and Hak-Joon’s face brightened .

“It must have been Su-hyeun…”

They thought that Su-hyeun finally caught Druid, the boss controlling all the monsters .

“Thank God . ”

Jordan sighed with relief . Then, he glared in his eyes and shouted, “It’s not over yet! Get a grip!”

“Yes, sir!”

Now was their chance . Druid’s spell was broken, and the monsters fell into disorder .

“Let’s go!”

They started a counterattack .

***

Su-hyeun looked at the face of Druid who fell on the ground . Druid’s face, which had been pierced through his head, was no different from an ordinary man . But this face was not Druid’s .

“It is a different face from last time I saw it,” Su-hyeun thought .

Originally, this blue dungeon had failed to attack during his previous life . Druid had brought out several monsters and massacred several people . Druid could absorb some of the others’ power while taking their faces . When Druid had got out of the dungeon last time, it had killed numerous people and taken their faces . Therefore, it wasn’t the same face Su-hyeun saw on TV .

“But it doesn’t look like this is Druid’s first face . Is it from another victim?”

It was possible that somebody might have entered the dungeon before the raid team, but Su-hyeun doubted it . When this blue-colored dungeon had opened, the surroundings were thoroughly isolated . Moreover, he could not imagine anyone would’ve been crazy enough to come into the blue dungeon unless they were suicidal .

Grr, Grrr!

As Druid fell, Miru who had been flying around above sky came down on Su-hyeun’s head . Tired, he breathed out .

“You did a good job, Miru . ”

Purr…

Miru had used his breath twice, which made him exhausted . Su-hyeun stroked Miru’s back a couple of times before picking up Druid’s club .

Purr?

Miru tilted his head to one side as if he was wondering what that was . Although he was tired, he did not fall asleep right away . Miru’s strength was getting better as it grew bigger .

“Are you asking what this is?”

Purr!

Miru nodded vigorously . Su-hyeun smiled at that and smash the club on the floor .

Crack!

The wooden club broke . As debris flew everywhere, a shining blue stone rolled down and stopped at Su-hyeun’s feet .

“This is the main thing,” Su-hyeun said .

He picked up the blue stone and showed it to Miru . Other people would not even imagine that this club was the most important thing in this dungeon .

“With this, I can…,” Su-hyeun thought .

Purr!

At that moment, Miru opened his mouth to reveal the stone in it .

“…Huh?”

Gulp!

Then Miru swallowed it . Su-hyuen didn’t expect that to happen .
