It was an unexpected turn of events.
It’s beyond my expectations that Geumgang Yeoksa has appeared, but to target me is a problem.
I wasn’t the only one who was taken aback by the sudden turn of events.
All the people lying around stood up and looked at the Geumgang History.
However, while people were bewildered by the sudden appearance of the boss, their eyes were shining with greed.
“It’s the boss! Get him!”
“We’re making the first move!”
These people didn’t know that this situation was strange.
People blinded by the initial attack rushed to Geumgang Yeoksa without caring about their lives.
As Geumgang Yeoksa was glaring at me, he lifted his foot when he saw the humans attacking him.
-Bang!
“Eww!”
I stamped my foot once, and in an instant the ground shook.
Geumgang Yeoksa rushed forward, kicking people away like someone trampling on a swarm of ants.
The rushing target was me.
-Bang!
I quickly retreated to avoid the giant vajra.
It was as if he had pulled out a pillar and was swinging it around.
I activated ‘Hermit’ while avoiding the attack.
“Ugh, ugh… … What the heck is that?”
“Crazy, you want me to catch this?”
People were hurriedly trying to collect their belongings.
In that short period of time, the surrounding area was reduced to scorched earth.
The spot where the diamond was stuck was sunken in, as if a meteor had fallen.
Dealing with the Diamond Age in this state is suicidal.
It seems like it would be best to avoid this place for now, but the question hasn’t been resolved yet.
Why did the Diamond Age come out and suddenly attack me?
Although the Diamond Age prioritizes attacking the target with the highest threat level, something felt off.
It was highly probable that someone had deliberately dragged out the history of the Diamond Sutra.
-Goooooo!
The Diamond Age still showed fierce hostility towards me.
I used ‘Hermit’, but it sensed my presence and started attacking again.
-Koosh, kooh!
Damn, looking at the condition, it looks like even escaping will be difficult.
I didn’t plan on catching it this quickly, but I had no choice but to change the plan.
I spoke urgently into the ear cuff.
“We’ve got a problem. The boss has left his zone and is running wild where I am.”
“[Brother, are you okay?]”
“First of all. Activate the device as quickly as possible and come here through the boss’s room.”
The three areas are separate, but you can go to other areas through the boss’ room.
All we can do is wait for others to come as quickly as possible.
But there was no way that Geumgang Yeoksa would leave me alone until then.
-Bang, bang!
Every time Geumgang Yeoksa swung his Geumgangjeo, the terrain changed.
Although I occasionally counterattacked with a seven-point sword… … .
[The target is immune to physical attacks!]
[The target is immune to physical attacks!]
[The target is immune to physical attacks!]
My attacks were useless.
Even if a wound like a blood clot occurs, it heals right away thanks to the automatic recovery function.
If so, we must use another method.
I stretched my left hand forward and activated my ability.
[The ability ‘Frost Flame’ is activated!]
If it’s the sorcerer’s ability, Frost Flame, then it will cause damage.
I don’t know how much of that will go into it though.
I burned all my magical power and hurled frost flames at the Diamond Age.
-Whoooosh!
The frost flames burned with a pale light and struck the lower body of the Diamond Warrior.
In an instant, a castle began to form near the bridge of Geumgang Yeoksa.
Even if it doesn’t deal damage, it’s enough to freeze them and temporarily block their movements.
-Ugh… … !
Geumgang Yeoksa looked down at his feet as if he was displeased.
Then, as I writhed and twisted my whole body, the ice began to shatter with a scream.
Rather, it seemed to have fanned his anger.
Is the firepower weak?
No, the firepower was sufficient.
However, it seemed like the cold damage wasn’t properly applied due to the continuous recovery effect.

[Automatic recovery is activated!]
The recovery speed was too fast, so it was impossible to hit with this level of damage.
It would be nice if you could release the reinforcement device quickly… …!
Then, a sharp voice came from the cuff.
“[Brother! The device has been activated! Physical attack immunity has been lifted!]”
I smiled bitterly when I heard that news.
I would like to see other effects removed if possible.
Even if the Chiljido was effective, if it had a continuous recovery effect, it would eventually be Amitabha Buddha.
At that time, the Vajra of the Vajra Monastery struck my body.
-Kwaaang!
“Ugh… … !”
Although I was able to defend, I was unable to completely neutralize the damage.
As a stream of blood flowed from his mouth, he heard people talking nearby.
“Your Majesty, Seo Kang-rim… is weaker than I thought?”
“See? I told you it’s nothing. The rumors about him being strong are all exaggerated.”
The Intangibles were lurking nearby, watching me like rats.
It seemed like he was quite enjoying seeing me suffer.
“Still, that weapon looks pretty nice.”
“It looks like it’s going to collapse soon, so let’s pack it then.”
I laughed at those reactions.
Whether I was weak or strong, people wanted me dead.
But I had no intention of doing as they wished.
[The ability ‘Frost Flame’ is activated!]
“That again?”
“That attack wasn’t going to work anyway.”
“You idiot. That’s all you have.”
Even though I could hear them laughing, I didn’t put out the spark.
Frost Flame is a unique ability that possesses the dual elements of fire and water.
Having two types of elements was both an advantage and a disadvantage.
In general, when the five elements of the awakened person and the five elements of the ability match, the effect is doubled.
However, since fire and water are the five elements that are in conflict with each other, even if I, a person with the fire attribute, used this ability, it would be a plus or minus zero.
Usually, that is.
[Set the Five Elements attribute to ‘Fire’!]
[Specify the five elements attribute as ‘water’!]
Both attributes existed in me.
When I assigned the attributes of the five elements to two, I felt a painful sensation as if fire and water were fighting each other inside my body.
And along with the pain, an unknown force began to boil.
[The ability ‘Frost Flame’ is activated!]
[Your abilities increase as your five element attributes match!]
[Your abilities increase as your five element attributes match!]
-Kwaaaaa!
A huge firework rose up, incomparable to the one just before.
In an instant, frost and sleet scattered around.
The attack hit the Geumgang History Museum, which was caught off guard.
-Tch! Tch!
The damage was done properly, as his whole body turned red as if he had been burned.
The ice was hanging like countless hands, holding onto the bridge of the Diamond Age.
-That extreme… … !
I twisted my body, but the ice did not break.
However, the cracks were slowly disappearing, and the burn marks were quickly regenerating.
The device’s effectiveness was better than expected.
If that’s the case, then we have no choice but to burn faster and more mercilessly.
I pulled up all my magic power and increased the firepower.
The frost flames burned fiercely and struck the Diamond Age.
-Wow!
A sledgehammer made of flames hit the Diamond Age.
Ice froze more than half of Geumgang Yeoksa’s face.
And at the same time, a welcoming voice came from the cuff.
“[Master! I have lifted the continuous recovery!]”
The scars that had been healing quickly suddenly stopped as if time had stopped.
Now the ice is starting to spread faster than it is being regenerated.
I ran, holding the map in both hands.
[The ability ‘Fighting Instinct’ is activated!]
My fighting spirit began to scream out towards the gigantic enemy.
I want to make that adversary who looks down on me arrogantly kneel.
The ice that had frozen the entire area around Geumgang Station was now my path.
I stepped onto the ice and jumped up, swinging my sword.
[The ability ‘Sword Strike’ is activated!]
Even though the outer shell was as hard as a diamond, what existed underneath was clearly flesh and bones.
The sword knew exactly where it was.
-Whoaaah!
The Chiljido sword cut through Geumgang Yeoksa’s neck like a saw blade, precisely tearing at the vital point.
Blood was flowing like a waterfall.
Geumgang Yeoksa’s body began to be consumed by flames, ice, and blood.
-Goooooo!
I was in a tattered state myself, but it seemed that even the Diamond Age had reached its limit.
I was thinking of finishing the Geumgang History, but decided to wait a while until the others arrived.
-Clang, clang… … .
Fortunately, ice had covered the entire body of Geumgang Yeoksa, and it was approaching a frozen state.
Meanwhile, the burns continued to spread.
It seemed like I could kill him without any problems if I waited in this state.
As long as no one comes in and causes trouble.
“Wow, it’s really as good as I’ve heard from rumors.”
A voice came from behind me, as if mocking my wishes.
I looked back slowly.
There was a man standing there, how should I put it… … .
Prince, there stood a man of the same style.
A neat and tidy appearance.
Even in this mess, the hem of the clothes was not dirty at all.
He was holding a rather unfamiliar bastard sword.
“… … Did you use the word ‘threat’ against the Diamond Age?”
“You’re quick-witted.”
The reaction of Geumgang Yeoksa was so strange that I thought someone might have intervened.
As expected, I used the item to draw out the Diamond Age and made it target me.
═══════════════
[Item] Threatener
[Grade] Ginseng product
[Description] Forcibly increases the threat level of the designated target, causing them to draw the aggro of the demon.
═══════════════
The item ‘Threat’ was mainly used by tanks during party hunting to draw the attention of the demons.
Among them, there were some that used it to interfere with others’ hunting.
The other person walked towards me and said.
“You don’t seem surprised to see me. Do you know me?”
“Best trainee in the Western Branch, Seong Ui-gyeol.”
Educational facilities were not limited to central branches.
Five branches produced many trainees, and among them, the best trainees achieved remarkable achievements in various ways.
The Seong-ui-gyeol before my eyes was also one of the few gods I could count on one hand.
“I already knew. I’ve also heard a lot about Seo Kang-rim, the best student.”
He said with a blank expression on his face.
No, rather than being expressionless, it was closer to a look of contempt.
If I were to define Seong Ui-gyeol in one word, I would say he is an ‘apostle of justice.’
He was also a popular god who did many good deeds and helped many people in his previous life.
“Why did you attack me?”
I asked him a question.
Seong Ui-gyeol approached, holding a sharp sword.
“As I said before, I’ve heard a lot about Seo Kang-rim.”
“… … .”
“He is a top student, but he is also a villain who kills many people and abuses his power… … .”
A laugh escaped me without me knowing.
Yes, he was indeed an apostle of justice.
It was only natural that I, known as a villain, was a thorn in his side.
Seong Ui-gyeol looked at me with a cold gaze and said.
“Wicked Seo Kang-rim, I will punish you!”
