The Devil's Cage Chapter 694 – Main Mission, Appeared
Translator: Dess Editor: EbonyFrost
A delighted smile emerged from Donna’s face who was half squatting when she saw the dagger plunge into Kieran’s back.
However, her delighted smile was frozen right away because Kieran’s body which was supposed to be bound on the ground easily escaped the restrains and despite being stabbed by a dagger, he was completely fine.
More importantly, Kieran turned around and grabbed her comrade!
“An internal armor?” Donna was stunned but reacted to the situation right after that; everything was too late though.
The man who Kieran grabbed still wanted to resist but [Power Glory, Heavy Hand] had been activated. The man suffered an impactful blow, his body wasn’t so robust to begin with and with that blow of pure strength, he quivered fiercely and his face turned pale as paper.
It seemed like he had suffered an internal injury but it was just the beginning.
After [Heavy Hand] had been successfully authenticated, [Death Throw] followed swiftly.
At the next moment, Kieran raised the paled man high over his head single-handedly.
Kieran then threw the man precisely at Donna like a cannon firing its pellet.
The heavy whistle of the wind frightened Donna.
She did not witness [Death Throw] before but solely from the air-breaking sound, she could feel the terrifying power brewing inside.
At the same time, she had a more direct understanding of Kieran’s strength. His strength certainly surpassed any fighter who was famous for brute strength and relied on their muscles.
“I can’t be hit by that!”
Donna’s heart skipped a beat, she immediately stopped what she was doing with her hands and tried to dodge, but Kieran was faster.
“Msss!”
Amidst the heavy incantations, a strap of cloth from a bandage flew out from Kieran’s left hand, arriving before Donna’s face swiftly.

Before she could react, her hands and legs were tied down according to Kieran’s will.
Then, the thrown man reached his target.
BANG!
The man who has been infused with [Death Throw]’s power has smashed hard into Donna’s body.
Argh!
An agonizing scream later, the bones and tendons of both their bodies had been ripped apart, signs of life swiftly faded away.
Two green items then floated out from their body, Kieran went over, picked them up and didn’t even change his calm expression.
Everything was within his expectations.
Aside from the ambushing factor, both of them weren’t that strong to begin with. Otherwise, Brigal would have died instantly instead of fleeing in a heavily wounded state.
Of course, the other reason that the fight ended so easily was that, other than Kieran familiarizing both of their fighting methods through traces left behind, it was also because of the two extra items on Kieran.
The items were from the fighters back in the clubhouse.
One was a sleeveless soft armor, or more precisely, an internal armor. Knitted by a certain animal’s fur that even Kieran couldn’t identify and providing him with an extra layer of defense.
[Name: Tenacious Soft Mail]
[Type: Armor]
[Rarity: Magic]
[Defense: Average]
[Attribute: Tenacity Lvl 1]
[Effect: None]
[Prerequisite: None]
[Remark: Wearing it will not obstruct you from wearing other armors, it will provide you with an extra layer of protection.]
…
[Tenacity Lvl 1: Able to ignore Feeble to Weak attack]
…
The other item looked like a common roll of bandages.
[Name: Fighter Bandage]
[Type: ETC]
[Rarity: Magic]
[Attack: Feeble]
[Defense: Average]
[Attribute: Guard Lvl 1]
[Effect: None]
[Prerequisite: None]
[Remark: Before you learn how to attack, you need to know how to protect yourself.]
…
[Guard Lvl 1: It has a certain percentage to slightly decrease the damage you received on the body part that you wrapped it with.]

…..
Two seemingly low-tier Magic ranked items and yet they presented a surprising effect with effective usage.
It granted Kieran a more in-depth experience of using an item, especially with [Fighter Bandage], together with [Living Rope Technique], it allowed Kieran to imagine all sorts of combat methods with its flexibility.
But it was just an initial thought, if he wanted to put it into real combat, he would need more trial and error.
So, after thinking deeply for a moment, he turned his attention to the new loot.
Another two Magic ranked items, one had fixed usage and the other was a consumable.
Both of the newly acquired Magic ranks were in ring form.
[Name: Rapid Ring]
[Type: Accessory]
[Rarity: Magic]
[Attack/ Defense: None]
[Attribute: Rapid Lvl 2]
[Effect: None]
[Prerequisite: None]
[Remark: It can provide you help but is limited and has a lot of restrictions]
…
[Rapid Lvl 2: When your Agility is lower than C+, it will grant you an extra 10% movement speed]
…
[Name: Binding Ring]
[Type: Accessory]
[Rarity: Magic]
[Attack/Defense: None]
[Attribute: Binding Force, 1/3]
[Effect: None]
[Prerequisite: None]
[Remark: This is an irreversible consumable item, please use it carefully.]
…
[Bind Force: Utilizing the strength of the earth to bind a target. The bound target will have to undergo a B+ Strength authentication. Successful authentication will free the target and failed authentication will bind the target on the spot for 3 seconds!]
…
“Not bad!” Kieran commented.
To Kieran who was forbidden from bringing any of his equipment and items into the dungeon world, any kind of item or tool would compensate his strength, despite the levels of the newly acquired items being fairly low.
He swept the place and after making sure he didn’t miss anything, Kieran took out his phone and called Anne Aldrich Augen’s secretary.
“Send someone down here, an alleyway beside the street of central square…”
“No need for a big squad… I’ve dealt with the assailants,” Kieran informed the secretary.
Less than a minute later, Anne Aldrich Augen’s secretary arrived at the scene.
It was a young lady with an experienced look and outfit.
“Sir 2567,” she called.
“I’ll leave these to you, Chelsea.” Kieran then turned around and walked away.
Secretary Chelsea didn’t stop Kieran, with Anne Aldrich Augen’s order, she knew what her priorities were.
Therefore, when the secretary fulfilled her duty in cleaning up the fight scene, she didn’t notice Kieran’s odd expressions.
[Player has completed key factor of main mission…]
[Player has successfully discovered the main mission!]
The moment Kieran left the alleyway, the notification ping echoed in his ear.
When he went over the details of his main mission, he couldn’t help but frown with a heavy expression.

At The Precipice
Defenseless. Scared. Alone. That describes the life of Brock Carter as of late. Following his ‘death’ at the hands of a vicious magpie, Brock is rescued by the machinations of the newly instated, all-powerful System and thrust knee-deep into a brutal world catered only to the strong. Fluctuating between two states of being and trapped within a city ravaged by time, he is told to either seek out the mysterious ‘Source’, or die trying. He just hopes he can do it without scuffing his expensive suit in the process. ***** Honestly, I've just always wanted to write a story. I had a crack at it a few years back, but the entire thing fell apart before it even began. At The Precipice was originally written as a way for me to destress and play with System elements and characters, but eventually I decided that if I was gonna write, why not post it too? Writing's just a hobby of mine, so don't expect this to be at published novel level, I guess, or even anything of relative polish. Updates every Mon-Tues-Wed-Thurs-Fri Average chapter length is 2000 - 3000 words ***** What to expect: - A semi-comedic/light tone, mixed in with a gritty world and brutal survival (not ever grimdark though) - An MC that thinks about what he's going to do and why he'll do it, even if his internal logic is lacking. Is a rather rational person, not often influenced by his emotions, but can be in extreme situations. - A plot heavily focused upon the MC, but one that will branch off to envelope the other characters in the world at times. Often, it's just other people's perspectives of him. - A story of power growth. While the MC is certainly going to be powerful, even over 100 chapters in from what I've written, he still isn't the strongest being on Earth, let alone the entire Multiverse. - Lots of gore, vivid fight descriptions, and often times deaths of people, some even somewhat important to the story ***** Things this story will never have: - Harems - An edgy, villainous MC - An MC that does jackshit about things for 'plot reasons'
