Chapter 65: Second Class (1)

The number of specters quickly increased .

Which meant that many dokkaebis were dying .

The dokkaebis were already facing the 8th wave .

However, Muyoung still didn’t partake in the battle .

‘The spirit will completely separate from the bodies of the dead dokkaebis after some time passes . ’

He couldn’t make the spirits into specters after the spirits have completely left the body .

It took 2 days to reach the 8th wave and Muyoung already had 1,000 specters .

This place was simply a gold mine for Muyoung .

Swaaaaahh!

The spirits came out of the bodies of dead dokkaebis and instantly went into Muyoung’s body .

Asura Path .

The conquest rate of crazy specters was continuously increasing in the process .

The conquest rate steeply increased as the number of specters increased .

― Still not enough . I need more specters!

Murloc King Murdudun was excited to go into battle leading specters . In a state completely filled with excitement, he kept pestering Muyoung .

If he continued like this, the conquest of Asura Path didn’t seem far away .

‘Not even one of the six worlds is easy . ’

Asura Path, Hell Path, Preta Path, Animal Path, Human Path and Deva Path!

Muyoung had seen a glimpse of each one .

They were filled with all sorts of horrors and he felt like whoever conquered those places would become a God .

At least, that was how Muyoung felt when he looked at Asura Path .

‘These burning glares . ’

Just, there were a few who glared at Muyoung for not participating in the fight and wandering around dead dokkaebis .

Not a lot but it was important to note that he was getting their attention .

‘I need to change my method . ’

If he was to openly make undead on top of this, it would be enough for him to become an enemy of all .

All the dokkaebis would instantly acknowledge Muyoung as their ‘enemy’ and attack him .

No matter how great Muyoung was, he wasn’t able to avoid the over 30,000 dokkaebis in this limited area .

There was too big of a risk and therefore he needed to ‘secretly’ made them into undead .

Clap!

Left with no choice, Muyoung changed his method .

He placed his hands together as if he was in praying .

It sort of seemed like he was praying for the dead .

‘Stay still . ’

He picked out the still-intact corpses out of the spiritless bunch and reanimated them into undead .

But, he didn’t allow them to move . Since, in a battlefield that continues endlessly, he had no time to waste in organizing them .

Fight and die, then you will become an undead .

When he turned 200 dokkaebis into undeads, a change occurred .

Level: 60

Type: Ghoul

Strength 66 Agility 55

Stamina 66 Intelligence 66

Wisdom 65>

Like the Prince and the Avengers, it seemed like they were recognized as one .

Muyoung quickly made a talisman .

As he summoned the dokkaebis into a talisman, the corpses turned undead magically disappeared . They were all transported into the talisman .

“Did I see it wrong? I think the corpses disappeared . ”

“Didn’t you see how the corpses of monsters that spawned in this trial disappear? It’s probably a characteristic of this place . ”

Muyoung nodded after he hearing their conversation .

The dokkaebis who weren’t familiar with talismans found the disappearing corpses strange but only thought of it as a characteristic of the ‘Endless Battlefield’ .

It was better this way . Muyoung was only able to make 50 to 100 undead in a day but through their misunderstanding, he was able to speed things up .

“But, what is that dokkaebi doing?”

“Is he trying to cleanse their spirits?”

“He’s probably just scared . This is why ice dokkaebis…”

Of course, there were some dokkaebis who didn’t think well of Muyoung .

They clicked their tongues and looked at Muyoung with disdain .

Since he never participated in the battle, everyone branded him as a coward .

However, he didn’t care .

He didn’t fall for their shabby provocations .

It was enough to participate in combat near the end of the battle . For now, he needed to concentrate on making undead and specters .

‘I am moving too fast . ’

Muyoung didn’t forget to observe the situation of the battlefield continuously .

Already the 10th wave .

A boss level monster appeared .

About 2,000 dokkaebis died by the time they faced the 10th wave .

It was because they didn’t know any tricks and were competing against each other .

If they continued like this, they would easily clear the 20th wave but anything beyond that seemed unlikely .

“Muyoung, you’re like a chief priest . ”

At that moment, the king of ‘Freezing Land’ tribe approached Muyoung .

He had injured his arm .

“Chief priest?”

“Even the one who prophesied the Advent of Oom was the chief priest . He works with souls and has the right to enter the world of the universe . Like what you’re doing now, his role was also to pray for the dead . However . ”

Gaon let out a deep breath and continued to speak .

“Right now, we don’t need a chief priest . It’s time to fight on the frontlines . Although you are a wandering king, if you, a king, just stand by, we, the ice dokkaebis, will completely lose face . ”

It seemed like he couldn’t take Muyoung’s strange behavior anymore and had come to give him a word of advice .

As they were in a place with the fire dokkaebis, they took care in how they looked to others .

However, Muyoung silently continued to do what he was doing .

Time was too precious to care about what other dokkaebis’ thought .

“Not all kings are strong . Muyoung, I understand if you’re chief priest class of dokkaebi and isn’t used to fighting . At least just act like you’re fighting . I, the king of the ‘Freezing Land’, Gaon, will be responsible for your safety . ”

“You don’t have to be responsible for my safety . ”

Muyoung tapped his waist one time .

He shook Anguish that was attached to his waist and showed off .

Then, Gaon shook his head from side to side .

“Seohan is currently fighting alone and there are too many casualties . If even our prestige dies off, then everything will go to the fire dokkaebis . ”

“Just leave one alone . ”

“…?”

“If you kill all the enemy, the next wave starts . On the other hand, if you leave even one alive than you could gain time to rest . ”

If they gained time to rest than they could reduce the number of casualties .

There was a need to walk the safest path as the ice dokkaebis were lacking in number .

Gaon widened his eyes and asked again .

“Is that true?”

“What do I earn from lying to you?”

Muyoung gave off an uncaring attitude .

Just an advice .

To accept it or not was their choice .

“Hmm… that’s true . I will try telling Seohan . ”

Once again, Gaon quickly joined the battle .

And Muyoung also started to pray again .

“He really is an odd one . ”

“What’s the point in paying attention to that sort of coward dokkaebi? But, the enemies who appeared this time don’t seem easy . I think we need to quickly go and join up with the others . ”

The attention Muyoung received quickly died off as well .

Clap!

The number of spirits rose and a stack of undead was made .

Muyoung’s advice wasn’t accepted in the end .

It couldn’t be helped .

If there were only ice dokkaebis, it might have been different, but they were with the long-time rivals, the fire dokkaebis .

If they tried to leave one monster alive, they wouldn’t allow it .

Instead, they would speed up the battle to push them to their limits .

It was the same as unknowingly walking on the path to self-destruction by only immersing yourself in the little things .

Moooo-!

The gigantic monsters cried .

To the dokkaebis, these monsters with two feet and a bull’s head were like their natural predators .

They had naturally high resistance to magic and their tough hide made most attacks ineffective .

The only ones that could face the minotaurs were the dokkaebi kings and duaxini .

Thump! Thump! Thuuuump!

The Duaxini, the ruler of the ice dokkaebis, Seohan showed destructive power .

Whatever his fists touched would freeze and shatter . His strength was also remarkable and even the minotaurs were taken back .

However, Seohan was slowly getting exhausted .

The other dokkaebis couldn’t notice but his insides were slowly breaking down .

‘Arlo . ’

Seohan moved his gaze .

Arlo, the ruler of fire dokkaebis!

Seohan couldn’t act weak while that guy was still alive .

Like Seohan, he evolved into a duaxini from a dokkaebi .

The two were on bad terms for a long time .

They fought countless times but not once was there a clear outcome .

Did it make sense to have 100 fights with 100 draws?

However, it couldn’t be helped .

They were equally powerful .

As it was obvious that if one died the other would be in a near death state, their fights always ended up as a draw .

‘I will beat you this time . ’

However, this time, it would be different .

To win, Seohan was overexerting himself .

If he was overexerting himself, it meant that Arlo was also overexerting himself .

Although Arlo might appear to be fine, he thought that he was having a hard time .

However, after continuously fighting the minotaurs, he found that that wasn’t the case .

‘He isn’t getting tired . ’

On the other hand, Seohan was exhausted .

How was this possible?

‘Are the fire dokkaebis this strong?’

By then, Seohan realized something strange .

The fire dokkaebis were strengthening each other .

To be exact, they were ‘sharing’ each other’s stamina .

Of course, Arlo wasn’t exhausted . Since if he was, he could just take the stamina of another dokkaebi .

It was a skill they didn’t normally have .

He didn’t know where they learned that kind of skill but… it couldn’t be said that Arlo wasn’t a wicked ruler .

Seohan frowned after seeing the enemies who have just appeared .

Orc lord and orc warchiefs!

They weren’t easy opponents . Especially the orc lord who was similar to duaxinis in that they exceeded the strength of regular orcs .

The fire dokkaebis were the first to act triumphantly .

Seohan ground his teeth . If he lost the lead, it was like he was giving up the position as ‘Oom’ .

Oom was someone only those who stacked meritorious deeds acknowledged by everyone could become .

‘I can’t just stay here like this . ’

Seohan moved .

Blaze!

Clash!

The orc lord sliced the flames the ruler of the fire dokkaebi, Arlo, shot .

It swung its huge greatsword indiscriminately as it pushed forward .

Even if it was Arlo, against an orc lord, 1 vs 1 was difficult .

A few hundred fire dokkaebis quickly gathered around and shot flames but with a single swing of its sword, a gust of wind blew out the flames .

All the fire dokkaebis were thrown into disarray . Arlo wasn’t any different .

Claaash!

Thump!

Then, a huge ice mass created in the sky smashed onto the orc lord .

It was a great shot made by Seohan .

Swack!

However, orc lord was even able to split that ice block in half .

He thought it would definitely hit .

However, the opponent who appeared before them wasn’t any ordinary orc lord .

Sword Ghost!

It had a title of the ghost of the sword .

It meant that it was well versed in swordsmanship .

Without any time for the dokkaebis to reorganize, the orc lord and the orc warchiefs pushed towards them . Their force overwhelmed the few tens of thousands of dokkaebis .

“He can’t see . ”

Then some ice dokkaebi king approached and stood beside Seohan .

Seohan tilted his head and looked at the dokkaebi who approached him .

“If you’re going to aim, aim both sides at the same time . If we work together with the duaxini who leads the fire dokkaebis, we could win . ”

All ice dokkaebis showed deep respect towards Seohan .

However, the dokkaebi in front of him didn’t appear to show any signs of it .

He was like emotionlessness itself .

Then, Seohan could only be surprised for a moment .

‘When did he come next me?’

He wasn’t able to notice his existence until he came right next to him .

Even if he was preoccupied, it wasn’t something that was possible .

‘Who is this guy?’
