Chapter 241

Chapter 241: The Final Battle

The Hell Monarch coughed up blood . His body shook and he grinded his teeth together . Blood flowed from his eyes so he didn’t look normal .

“Randalph . . . Brigsiel . . . !”

His voice filled the battlefield . Just listening caused an eerie feeling to cover their bodies . The strong people instantly recognized that he was the Hell Monarch . It was the very last trial . They felt both hope and despair .

The Hell Monarch raised his hands .

Gradually, the power of destruction gathered around his hands .

A mighty magic power . Dangerous . But it couldn’t be avoided .

As he reached out his hand, a purple sphere hit the ground .

Kuwaaaaaaaang!

The explosion couldn’t be blocked . A storm erupted that touched everything . Destructive Humanity (God) . A power only for destruction . The high ranking demons and creatures couldn’t withstand the power . 30,000 creatures and demons died in an instant .

Death Bringer looked on expressionlessly . Originally he should have been much stronger . The divinity locked in the system was scattered so he was weakened . He looked at the castle that he wanted to crush in his fist . No matter how much he was weakened, he was still Death Bringer . A devil .

Getting rid of the huge castle wasn’t his job .

"A mortal cannot overcome an immortal . I am the devil Death Bringer! Do you dare go against a god?”

He once again reached out . A multitude of hands stretched out from the earth . The hands grabbed the 30,000 corpses on the ground and made a huge doll .

Kwaruk!

Kwaruruk!

The 30,000 corpses combined to form a monster over 100 metres tall . This was the result of properly combining his powers and skills .

The monster was ignorant . However, it was strong .

The place that the monster swept through didn’t have any bodies remaining .

Death Bringer didn’t distinguish between friend and foe .

"I will kill all of you in the end . Before that . . . I will get rid of everything . ”

He declared . Words containing divinity . He infused his words with his strength, in order to ensure that he kept the promise .

The balrog Rogujan, Adonis of the dark spirits . I couldn’t deny that they were strong, but they were lacking compared to me . It meant that Absolute Robbery would have no effect . Of course, it would be a different story if they had a power like Camael’s, but they didn’t .

Adonis . . . he got into the system and obtained Elemental Shield . The system gave him a way to achieve it . But that wasn’t enough to call it a power . He couldn’t even use Elemental Shield properly . He was stunned by the sudden power I had and stopped thinking .

Absorbing the two of them wouldn’t make me stronger . And Absolute Robbery seemed to have a limit on the number of times it could be used .

‘I can’t absorb more than five . ’

At first, I thought it was the amount of magic power . But when I used it several times, I realized there was a limit on the number of things I could absorb . It depended on my ability and it seemed like there were approximately five times left .

Anyway . . . I was looking forward to it .

‘What would happen if I absorbed Death Bringer?’

After all, Death Bringer was a devil and god, even if he lost his divinity . A supreme god!

He was likely to have a similar or even greater strength than me .

Although I had the same divinity as a living god, it was difficult to imagine stealing divinity from Death Bringer .

Becoming stronger was always enjoyable .

And I heard from Yihi that he had started a massive attack .

‘If he attacked, then it is natural to receive it . ’

Survival was in my nature .

As soon as I returned through the crack, I took out all the weapons I brought . There were hundreds of epic rated items piled up . The unique rated items also numbered over a thousand .

"Give them to those who need them . ”

“Yes, Master . ”

Yihi instantly obeyed my command .

The state of the castle was the worst . Thanks to the constant retreat and pushing back, the condition of their equipment was terrible . The craftsmen could repair the tools, but the story was different on the battlefield . If two people had similar skills, the one with better equipment would win . This could mean the difference in winning on the battlefield .

Changing their equipment could increase the skills of quite a few demons . This was the castle that Ariel Diablo ruled over, so they were quite well organized .

I left the work in the castle to Yihi . I immediately checked the status of the battlefield . I clicked my tongue lightly .

'The worst . ’

It hadn’t been long since the Hell Monarch’s attacks began . But there were devastating traces all over the place . Bodies of both enemies and allies were piled up . Even so, the number of my allies was noticeably reduced .

‘There aren’t even 200,000 troops remaining . ’

I swept my gaze over the battlefield calmly . After a lot of struggle, they had reduced the opposing side, but there were still three million remaining . It was a situation where my side was enclosed in a narrow place . They wouldn’t be able to last much longer .

If only one road was opened then the rest would be easy . They would be annihilated in the blink of an eye . Plus . . .

I moved my gaze . The highest place . Death Bringer, in the guise of the Hell Monarch, was gathering energy of destruction . The energy was the size of an adult male, but the magic power coming from it was tremendous .

‘He is aiming to wipe out everything . ’

I understood it immediately .

This was Death Bringer’s power!

The power of a god . Among them, Death Bringer had the most destructive energy .

Could I block it?

I shook my head .

I couldn’t block it . Although I could interfere, I couldn’t prevent the destruction energy from touching the ground . I would have to use a god power and I only had two . Reverse World and True Words . Neither of them were offensive powers .

‘I can't do it . ’

If that hit then the castle would collapse . Was it just the castle? Every creature nearby would collapse .

He wouldn’t have two similar powers .

My worry was short-lived .

I unfastened the earrings . I held them in my hands and said .

“Power of Destruction . ”

Chwaaaaak!

White light emerged from the earrings . The light swallowed my intended target, Death Bringer . Then his expression stiffened .

'A message isn’t popping up . Maybe it is because the system collapsed . ’

The system normally gave me a choice of what to do . I just followed it . But now that the system had crashed, I needed to manipulate it on my own .

Five colours emerged from the earrings .

Black, purple, vermillion, red and blue .

It meant I could eliminate one of them .

I chose purple . My hands touched it .

Swiik!

At that moment, Death Bringer’s destructive aura disappeared .

The earrings also evaporated .

'Now there are four powers left . ’

I nodded . Power of Destruction wasn’t a skill that only destroyed powers . It also allowed me to confirm how many powers the opponent had .

Five lights appeared and one of them had been destroyed .

Now there were four powers remaining .

"The Hell Monarch made something good . ”

I shrugged and glanced at Death Bringer . He was currently trapped in the body of the Hell Monarch . He wouldn’t be able to escape from the Hell Monarch’s body until his divinity returned . So if the Hell Monarch was killed, he would also die .

It was the end after being destroyed .

“Randalph Brigsiel . . . !”

He felt one of his powers disappearing .

Death Bringer’s body trembled . Was it because his divinity had fallen greatly? The expressions on his face were intense . Somehow he didn’t seem like the devil . He was significantly different from the first time I saw him in the Demon World .

'I can do it . ’

There was a mocking smile on my face .

He might be feeling furious, but I was happy .

I had removed one of his strongest powers so I moved over there . There would be a lot of damage in my fight with Death Bringer, so it would likely be disadvantageous to my demons and creatures .

At first, he ignored me and killed my soldiers . However, he had now become hostile towards me . Once he became angry, I needed to move .

Hwiing!

I used Chaotic Blade on Wrath and the Emperor’s Sword .

Paaaang!

I kicked the air . I folded my wings and flew as fast as possible towards Death Bringer .

Kwaang!

A blue barrier blocked my swords . It wasn’t a shield made using magic power .

‘This is a god power . ’

The power to form a protective barrier .

I suddenly thought of Camael . It was an annoying power like his .

But Death Bringer shouldn’t have a defensive power . Gustarte and Diablo also laughed .

Then . . .

‘This power originally belongs to the Hell Monarch . ’

Guardian’s Power!

It was a power that used the fate of those they guarded, keeping the user in a near invincible state . In contrast, the opponent wouldn’t be able to exert their strength .

Jjejeok! Jjejejeok!

The shield that received my sword was broken .

Death Bringer had no need for defenses . He was a solitary being .

On the contrary, I was protecting many . At the very least, I had to protect the soldiers following me . That was the responsibility of the demon king .

Guardian’s Power was useless in front of me . I had a lot more to protect than Death Bringer .

‘There are three powers remaining . ’

Kwaang! Kwaang!

I wielded my swords in rapid succession . Every time, Death Bringer reached out and blocked my swords . Huge shock waves kept on being created as I moved sideways .

A wide valley .

Death Bringer opened his arms . Soon, a red energy wrapped around the whole valley .

This was also a power . It was a great power that dominated this space .

I frowned . From the moment I entered this space, I could tell that my stats had fallen .

Absolute Domination . I confronted it with my own power .

Diablo’s voice rang out . The red magic power that Death Bringer used was Absolute Domination . I had a similar power and could defend myself with my spirit .

It was similar to the power of True Words . I wouldn’t allow it to dominate me . Overlapping was possible .

“Death Bringer . I am impervious to your power . ”

I said with all my will .

Jjaejaeng!

Soon, the red magic power broke like a mirror .

'Indeed . . . now he is a demigod . ’

It wouldn’t have been easy if Death Bringer had his original divinity . Even with the same power, there was a clear difference between users .

However, his system was broken and his divinity barely survived .

Death Bringer’s expression was stiff .

He was a god from birth . He had never experienced a situation like this before . I was a mortal demon .

But I wasn’t a mere demon .

I also possessed divinity . I had absorbed Gustarte’s powers and inherited the power of Diablo, the origin demon king . I had surpassed normal mortals a long time ago .

"A mortal subject . . . ! Is this creature trying to transcend your creator?”

Death Bringer was filled with a torrent of emotion . A god was originally a perfect being . They didn’t express emotions to this extent .

Now I was sure of it . He was a fallen god . It was right to call him a demigod . The boundaries between a mortal and immortal were disturbed . Due to the incomplete possession, he might have integrated with the Hell Monarch . . .

This was the Hell Monarch’s anger . His despair was felt by Death Bringer .

'These wretched words . ’

The Hell Monarch had wanted to kill a god . I didn’t care . But I wouldn’t ruin this game . I couldn't show him a big mistake that he would target .

There were two powers remaining . But I didn’t care much .

“Death Bringer . Now I will finish this . ”

Pride’s flames . Lightning God . Chaotic Blade . I used every attack skill at the same time . If I killed him then the army attacking the castle would also be destroyed . They existed due to his skill .

Death Bringer’s expression changed . As I moved in, he smiled .

"End? . . . Come, you won’t be able to avoid this . ”

He raised his hands . Then he pointed towards me .

"The real power of the devil isn’t something you can offset with your mind . I am the Creator and I have power over all my creatures . According to my authority, I will erase you now . ”

Death Bringer was the devil . A demon and a god . And I was part of the species that he created .

He opened his mouth and declared .

“Death . ”

No other words were required . One of his remaining two powers was revealed . However, it felt different from any power he had used before .

A specified task . His greatest power!

It was a proclamation of death towards the opponent .

As soon as Death Bringer said the word ‘death’, the world around me changed . It was black and I couldn’t see anything . But I didn’t die right away .

"Kkuk . . . !”

My body wasn’t listening to me . My hands moved to choke my own neck . Even so, I was able to resist thanks to my high intelligence .

Kuuong!

I fell from the sky and crashed into the ground .

In this state, my body twisted around on the ground .

‘My remaining stat points . ’

I gritted my teeth . I had to hang in there .

I instinctively realized that raising my intelligence was the only way to stop this power .

In order to do this, I had to use my remaining stat points .

But how? The system had crashed so I didn’t know how to raise it .

“Master!”

At that moment, I heard Yihi’s voice from above me .

A hallucination?

Death Bringer’s power enclosed me in another space . I had felt my soul connection with Yihi be forcibly disconnected .

“I am a living Dungeon Core . The core is part of the system! Hurry and touch Yihi!”

My vision was tinged with darkness . I couldn’t see anything . I only felt death slowly approaching .

But I reached out . Soon someone touched my hand .

Through the darkness, some words appeared in front of me .

I bit my lip hard enough to make it bleed and put all my remaining points into intelligence .

My intelligence reached 221, well over 200 points .

-The skill ‘Aegis Shield (God)’ has been created .

Having more than 200 intelligence was no different from having a power . Once Aegis Shield was created, the darkness that stained my surroundings quickly faded .

The world regained its original shape and I could barely open my eyes .

However, a sight I couldn’t easily understand was right before my eyes .

“A fairy dares interfere with my work? You deserve to die . ”

Death Bringer’s hand had pierced through Yihi’s chest .

Yihi had a spirit body . But Death Bringer had the power to tear apart a spirit . His strength was in the realm of a god .

It was impossible for her to deal with Death Bringer, even if she became the fairy ruler .

At the same time, Yihi gradually became dim .

“ . . . . . . ”

I was silent . Then Yihi stared at me and gave a small laugh .

“M-Master . . . yihihi .

“Did I do well?”

Yihi playfully bowed .

And she was gone in a puff of white smoke .

“ . . . . . . ”

My face became hard .

Ah . My mouth opened slightly, but that was it . I couldn’t think of anything to say .

This was the second time I had seen Yihi die .

She had died twice on my behalf . She never resented me .

Yihi originally should have left to become the fairy queen . The contract between us should have been terminated at this point . She would build her own world out of the core . Despite having such an important mission, Yihi had continued to belong to the core .

She felt uneasy and continued to watch over me .

-Hello, Dungeon Master . I am the Dungeon Master’s companion fairy, Yihi! Yihi!

-Wah, Master is amazing! Mind reading!

-Yihi was really wrong . Yihi should have been careful until the end . Please forgive me Master . . . hiing .

-Master! Master! En en! Don’t die and leave Yihi .

In retrospect, Yihi had only caused me trouble . She didn’t always do what I told her to . Her love for bees was enough to make a secret garden . Sometimes she showed amazing creativity and did something unexpected . Therefore, I stayed quiet when she was helpful .

However, despite this, I always kept Yihi by my side . Yihi never betrayed me . Even in my previous life, she was always laughing no matter how hard it was . That attitude didn’t change even when she died on my behalf .

But, this was the end .

I didn’t have the ability to turn back time .

It was impossible to turn back the time once it was already turned . I was sure because I realized some truths of the world after gaining divinity .

It meant I couldn’t see that light anymore .

"Do you have the power of Aegis? It is still useless . A mortal wouldn’t be able to properly handle that power . ”

Death Bringer mocked quietly .

I stared at him .

“You shall die . ”

And I declared .

The power of death contained a transcendent will that couldn’t be stopped .

Never, he absolutely could never survive this place .
