Episode 40
Episode 40 “Iä! Iä! Hastur!”
“Hi go… … it’s tough.”
I feel like my head is going to explode. It feels like all the hangovers a person can experience in their life are gathered together and poured into them all at once.
“Urrrgh! K’haarrrr!”
“R’haarrrr! Wzur-y’iin!”
It’s not time to stop yet. Dancers babbling in bizarre language. Although they were broken and scorched here and there, they had enough energy… … Let’s see… … Is it nine?
“What is he saying now. “Speak in Korean, you idiots.”
It looks like a couple of them are squirming awkwardly, but I don’t think there’s any need to worry about that.
I slowly massaged my stiff, immobile neck and thought about the actions I needed to take, the declarations I needed to make, and the objects I needed to keep an eye on.
“I’m already in the worst condition… … “After this is over, I’m really going to have to lie down for a week without moving anything.”
Nine dancers come towards me and form all at once. Although the number has decreased, the operation is still consistent. They cross their legs and lower their heads towards me. Movements that remind me of ballet movements. Next turn, and kick.
If I knew some ballet terminology, I might be able to tell what they’re doing, but regardless of my increased intelligence, there’s no way for me to know anything I didn’t know before. The next leap. I’ll die if I look any further.
I threw my skateboard on the floor and cast some magic.
[Cat’s Elegance]
[Invisible Hand]
[jump]
It wasn’t for no reason that I was in a daze. As concentration is restored, the characteristics that had stopped activating begin to function normally, so magic can be activated continuously without hand seals or chanting.
As soon as I leave the room, the dancers’ dance changes from ballet to sword dance. A pair of sparkling swords held in each hand. The sword dance for their king began. It is a dance of death to exclude the king’s enemies.
“I am a wizard!”
Just like the last ghoul master, why do you keep forcing hand-to-hand combat? If my hierarchy was even higher, I could use magic to respond more easily, but for now, the answer is to increase the distance.
The magically enhanced skateboard gave off a sparkling light and bounced to ridiculous heights that would have been impossible in my original body. But the golden dancers that follow. 10 eerily shining sword lights. Yellow silk fluttering like clouds.
Their weapons are not only swords. Rocks that brush against the fluttering yellow silk are also cut as if they were cut by a sword. are you kidding? The attack range is too wide, right?
The attack range for a single dancer was 4 meters front and back, left and right, up and down, and with the addition of the leaping power to instantly narrow the distance, I couldn’t stop for even a single moment. Leap, then step on the rock and leap again. As soon as it hits the ground, move at high speed using the explosive dash trick. Leap again.
Just as I was about to shake off the guy that was clinging to me from behind, a golden body flew in from the front. If things continue like this, there will be no end. I raised my magic power and screamed.
“Get out of the way!!!”
[Shock]
Kwagyagyaggyaggya!!!
The dancer was hit directly by the heated shockwave emitted from my hand and was thrown away, hitting the rock with a metallic clanging noise.
The moment he was about to activate a new spell to put an end to him, three dancers and six sword blades caught up. A sword strike that exquisitely targets a blind spot where it is difficult for me to move.
“Oh, shit. “If you’re going to fight with a knife, do it with a knife holder!”
[Gale], [Spell Enhancement: Maximization]
[Leap], [Spell Enhancement: Increased range]
[Protection Circle], [Spell Enhancement: Multiple Casting]
The one floating in the air was blown away by a strong wind, and the other one was forced to jump up, changing its trajectory, and at the same time, the multi-layered protective shield was thrown at the closest one.
Wow!
Sparks leap out from the dual swords blocked by the transparent protective shield. But I stayed in one place too long. Eight swords flew in again from different directions. Oh, I’m really dying.
Oh, hit it off! I will now stop using the strategy of minimizing damage!
I opened my hands wide, all of my fingernails missing, and casted magic in all directions.
Giiiiiiing… … !!
Concentrate the magical power containing excessive yang energy into both fingertips. The blood flowing from the torn and burst finger can be seen boiling and starting to evaporate.
[Thunderlight]
[Spell Enhancement: Maximization]
[Spell Enhancement: Multiple Casting]
It feels like all 10 fingers that were already damaged are shattered. I feel an excruciating pain creeping up my fingertips and up to my spinal cord. However, the extremely strengthened lightning follows my command, drinks my magic power, and grows to an enormous size.
Hold on!
A dazzling golden lightning is emitted in all directions.
It seems like two huge trees are growing from both hands. A bizarre sensation that I don’t know if it’s pain or pleasure. I feel dizzy. The electric tree literally grows at the speed of light, wrapping around the dancers who rush to give me a hug. They say gold conducts electricity well, right?
Tsuppyappya!!!
I fired a fireball under the skateboard while the dancers were paralyzed by the lightning.
[Hardening]
[Fireball]
Kugwagwagwang!
The moment the fireball explodes at its peak, an additional… … .
[jump]
Activate Leap to leap again. It felt like my intestines were going to spill out, but it quickly bounced more than 20 meters vertically.
Gwagwagwagwa!
The sound of the wind hitting your face and ears.
At the peak of the leap, I tilt my head back and look down. No, to be exact, it starts to fall from the head down… … Anyway, below my head, I can see the dark forest of Tanhyeon, the ruins that appear naked, and the dancers sparkling in the starlight.
“K’haarrrr! kya’vughtmm!!”
“Wow! F’huzur ghliis khaa!”
I can see that the dancers who were not swept away by the lightning have gathered at my feet as if chasing me. It’s reasonably well put together.
Have you ever gathered so many people in your life who are so obsessed with you? It looks like your love luck is at its peak. Anyway, it came together nicely. The standard for herding hunting is a wide area base.
[Sound wave refraction]
[Spell Enhancement: Multiple Casting]
A barrier of magic rises around the dancers. A magical barrier that distorts sound waves, forming like an open dome.
Take it, Lee Chang-hyuk’s special move.
[Sonic shock]

“Kaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!!!”
Kwagyagyaggyaggyaggyaggya!!!!!!!
The shock wave created by the sonic shock is blocked by the sonic distortion barrier and converges back inside, echoing.
Trapped and unable to escape, shock waves continue to overlap, creating terrible destruction.
The rocks of the ruins and the metallic bodies of the dancers, caught up in the terrible vortex created by the sound, are unable to withstand the repeated impacts and are destroyed to pieces.
Quazzzzzz… … .
Even though the spell was stopped, the shock wave trapped in the sonic distortion barrier did not subside and continued for a long time.
It is a clearer effect than expected. If the situation is right, if I use this well in the future, I can destroy most enemies.
That’s enough for the ground. Now it’s my turn to save myself.
[feather falling]
I tried to catch the skateboard in the air while activating a spell to reduce the speed of my fall… … I tried to catch it, but I realized that such a skill was impossible with my dexterity, so I activated additional magic and caught it.
It’s not over yet.
I looked up at the sky in the midst of a long, leisurely fall in the air.
dark night sky.
And a bright yellow star brightens the sky and floats beautifully.
‘What a crazy sky.’
It’s a terrible and ominous sky that makes you feel like you’ll develop mental illness if you keep looking at it. Although the moon is floating, that strangely shining star gives off a much greater presence than a crescent moon that emits faint light.
‘f*ck it, even if I do something crazy, I’ll end up going home.’
With that determination, I landed in the center of the ruined ruins.
“Surprisingly, achievements don’t appear.”
Shell We Dance? I thought I would get the same achievement. Ah, that meant I had to dance too.
Most of the dancers who were running wild were unable to overcome the overlapping sound wave shocks and were completely destroyed and shattered.
Of course, they are not all wiped out. There are a total of four dancers still alive.
But that doesn’t mean they’re in perfect condition. Now, the figure that used to attack with a body shining in golden light and dancing with an unprecedented grace in the world is nowhere to be seen.
All four dancers were affected by the sonic shock in some way, causing their metallic bodies to rupture and collapse.
The sight of him struggling and crawling, using his free arms and legs with missing knees to somehow get away from me, seemed like a tragic or comical sight.
Anyway, this is [Cthulhu World]. There is no way to compromise with existence originating from the darkness of the abyss.
As I began to approach them, the dancers began shouting in unison.
“K’haarrrr!”
“K’haarrrr!”
“K’haarrrr!”
“K’haarrrr!”
“Iä! Iä! Hastur! Ugh! Ugh! Iä Hastur! n’ghah- ghaaa mglw’ghaa mhatha!”
“Iä! Iä! Hastur!”
“Iä! Iä! Hastur!”
“Iä! Iä! Hastur!”

[System: The ‘Enhanced Vigilance’ trait is activated.]
The [Improved Vigilance] trait screams.
“Holy shit, stop!”
[Fireball]
Quaaaaaaaaaaa!
Bright red flames erupt with a huge explosion.
One of the golden monsters that glowed while shouting the true name of the [King in Yellow] was destroyed. But there are still three left.
“Iä! Iä! Hastur!”
“Iä! Iä! Hastur!”
“Iä! Iä! Hastur!”
[thunderstroke]
Rumbling… … Kwaaaa!!
“Iä! Iä! Hastur!”
“Iä! Iä! Hastur!”
Still not stopping. Such a bitch… … ! Stop calling me, you crazy people!
[Awesome fire]
Nevertheless, there is still one mouth left to shout out the true name of the abyssal being.
[Magic Bullet]
[Spell Enhancement: Multiple Casting]
Doo-dad-dad-dada!!
Dozens of magic bullets were fired and the last dancer’s body was shattered. Dozens of holes open in the dancer’s body, and golden scales and body fragments fly in all directions.
However, despite this, a cry to praise their king flows from the head of the dancer who has lost her body and is left with only her head.
“Iä! Iä! Hastur!”
At some point, the dancer’s head, rolling on the floor, is stopped by a person’s leg.
“what? you.”
The problem wasn’t the dancer. A new shadow appeared as if blocking the dancer’s path. Long limbs and golden hair. Strange decorations on the ears.
No, no, that’s not a new person. The person who should be in this place is Jang Hyeon-deok.
“you… … What are you doing… … ?”
No, wait. Something is strange. The quality, form, and flow of magical power are completely different. Jang Hyeon-deok approached the dancer with a strangely emotionless expression.
The dancer was not moving away from me. It was moving in the direction of Jang Hyeon-deok.
“Hey, stop.”
[Arrow of Destruction]
Pazzat!
I hastily fired a magic arrow filled with the magic power of the negative dimension in the direction of Jang Hyeon-deok. For some reason, the purple arrow flew at high speed and flew in the wrong direction instead of towards him.
It’s not that the aim was wrong. The arrow of destruction was flying precisely towards Jang Hyeon-deok. But suddenly, as if space was distorted, the arrow changed direction on its own.
Jang Hyeon-deok finished his action before I could think of the next move. A peaceful, natural touch, as if of course it had to happen.
Jang Hyeon-deok took off the mask that was covering the dancer’s face and placed it on his own face.
And static.
