‘Strong iron… … .’
I didn’t think about the defeat of the Diablo Guild.
Se-Woon thought that if they were the ones he knew, he could somehow win.
However, the battle that took place on the amniotic membrane monitor was beyond Se-un’s expectations.
‘Was it that strong?’
The force displayed by the guild members far surpassed what Seun had thought and expected.
Although the highlight was given by Baekhyun and Kang Hancheol, the fact that the highlight was possible was thanks to the cooperation of everyone in the Diablo Guild.
Like a well-coordinated gear, if even one person had been out of sync, such a perfect victory would have been impossible.
Se-woon wasn’t the only one who was surprised.
“6 minutes and 17 seconds. I didn’t expect it to end this quickly.”
Release had already gotten up from her seat and was standing next to Seun, blankly staring at the victory scene of the Diablo Guild.
It seemed as if he had no regard for his own defeat.
“How on earth did you raise it? I want to learn something about it too.”
It doesn’t matter what she mutters. You don’t have to answer.
Se-Woon is equally embarrassed, but he has more immediate work to do.
“It is my victory.”
Seun won the bet with her.
She was more evil than any demon I had ever met, so I was worried that she might go back on her promise… … .
“I’m watching too. Don’t worry, I have no intention of breaking my promise. No, even if it wasn’t a bet, would you have become interested in your children?”
Luckily, she didn’t.
Even though she looked like a demon, she didn’t tell any lies.
Honestly, when I think back to the times when the good gods I saw before the regression lied to suit their own interests, it made me think again about the boundary between good and evil.
“Honestly, I don’t care about outer space, the end of the world, or anything like that. I value the present more than the future. If it’s fun right now, that’s all I care about.”
Green energy gathered from the tips of Lilith’s fingers as he raised them toward Seun.
It soon became sticky and clumped together, then changed into a liquid form, sparkling like dew.
“In that sense, I became interested. In you and your children.”
Stop.
Green dew fell.
As the dew touched the back of Se-un’s hand, he felt a heavy energy spread throughout his body, and at the same time, the stigmata emitted a green light that resembled the color of the dew.
“I understand why the other kids are watching you. I think it’s more fun to watch you than to enjoy your hobby.”
Release looked up at Seun by bending his upper body.
Those captivating eyes, no, those eyes that seemed dangerous somewhere, were directed at Se-woon.
Watching her with her tongue twitching gave me a creepy feeling that was more dangerous than fascinating.
“I want it right now, but I have to hold back. If a child is wrapped in his mother’s skirt, he will never grow up.”
– The goddess of lust, Lilith, has been acknowledged.
– You have been recognized by the God of Lust and can now use the ‘Power of Lust’.
– Inheriting the divinity of lust, additional adjustments are made to actions, skills, and systems related to nurturing.
– The stigmata are imbued with charm by inheriting the divinity of lust. When the stigmata are activated, a faint aura of charm flows out.
I felt a genuine sensation that I had never felt from other drinks before.
Is it because the door was damaged by Baekhyun’s corpse explosion, or is it because Se-woon lacks the strength to maintain the place of lust while bestowing divinity?
Starting with the monitor made of amniotic membrane collapsing, the amniotic membrane around it began to melt and cracks appeared in space.
“Oh, and if you have any requests, feel free to ask me anytime.”
Lilith looked straight at Seun and put her arms around his neck.
Ruin growled even louder, unable to intervene, and Turik also resisted her by spreading his wings as wide as possible.
“I will help you as much as I can, as long as you give me a small ‘reward’. Okay?”
Gulp-
The slime’s body, which had been forming the form of a release, collapsed, and the entire space collapsed, ending the one-on-one meeting with the Demon King of Lust.
* * *
“Mr. Seun!”
Seun walked out of the door that stood tall between the collapsed walls.
At that moment, the door that had completed its mission collapsed, and the place of lust that existed on the 68th floor completely disappeared.
As the battle had just ended, everyone was in a state of confusion, and Yu Seo-ah was the first to discover Seun.
All the guild members turned their heads at her voice, found Seun, and welcomed her in their own ways.
“I’m so glad!”
“What the hell happened? You suddenly told me to clear out all the monsters in 10 minutes… … .”
“Have you achieved your goal?”
A lot of questions keep pouring in.
Since he only had one mouth, he couldn’t answer each and every one of their questions, so Se-woon answered with a bright smile instead.
Everyone in the guild could understand the meaning behind Se-Woon’s rare smile.
“Ha, that’s really fortunate.”
“I told you that the explosion was so big that I almost thought Seun-ssi would be hurt too.”
“Haha… … I didn’t think that far ahead.”
“Baekhyun oppa, you’re a little scary sometimes, right?”
“You’re scared… … .”
“It was still cool, wasn’t it?”
“huh!”

Although everyone was tired, they didn’t seem to have any major injuries.
Even without Lee Ha-neul stepping in, most of the wounds had been healed thanks to the first aid provided using the potions that each person had received in advance.
Of course, it may look fine on the outside, but it’s not like that on the inside.
Having poured out most of my strength in this battle, I was practically empty inside.
Even though you’re smiling like that, it must be quite difficult to just stand still right now.
“What about Kang Han-cheol?”
“Oh, Mr. Sky is treating you right now. Over there.”
I recalled the last sight of Kang Han-cheol that I saw on the amniotic membrane monitor.
He was a man who did not kneel even when he fainted, but he endured the explosion of his body and swung his fists with the full power of Agares.
There was no way that it would be okay inside or out.
When I turned my head to where Yoo Seo-ah was pointing, I saw Lee Ha-neul lying on the floor and treating Kang Han-cheol.
‘I guess the first aid is finished.’
Kang Han-cheol’s entire body was surrounded by a translucent red liquid.
The soot that had formed on his entire body from enduring the corpse explosion with his bare body was disappearing, and his damaged bones and muscles were slowly healing.
But knowing that what he saw on the outside wasn’t the end, he approached him and asked Lee Ha-neul about Kang Han-cheol’s condition.
“What’s the status?”
“It’s more serious than I thought. Honestly, at first, I was surprised that I was even alive. What was I thinking when I went into that explosion…?”
It was just as Se-un expected.
After hearing the explanation, it was said that not only was the muscle torn, but about half of the ligament was also torn.
Most of the tendons were torn, and major organs such as the heart and lungs were burned or bleeding internally.
If Lee Ha-neul hadn’t run straight there and started treatment with Marbas’ power, it’s impossible to know what would have happened.
‘That’s strong iron.’
It perfectly suited his personality of looking only forward and not looking back.
Even if I had told him before he swung his fist that this was going to happen, he wouldn’t have stopped.
In order to help Ihaneul, who seemed to be slow to heal even with Marbas’ power, Seun took out his staff and unleashed the power of greed.
– The Treasure Trove of Greed has been opened.
[ Asclepius, the symbol of medicine ]
– The staff used by Asclepius, the ‘god of medicine’, who was the son of the sun god Apollo and was known as a symbolic being representing medicine and medical science at the time.
A snake coiled and crawled up Seun’s staff.
Asclepius is said to have practiced medicine to the point where he could even bring the dead back to life. The snake wrapped around his staff is said to symbolize resurrection and regeneration.
Use that power entirely for strong iron.
– Growing Hatching unleashes the regenerative energy dormant in ‘Asclepius’.
– The symbolism of medicine is recreated through ‘Asclepius’.
Se-un lowered his staff towards Kang-cheol’s body.
The snake wrapped around the staff wriggled as if it were alive, pierced through the red liquid, and touched Kang-cheol’s arm.
Bam.
The snake’s teeth pierced the strong iron skin.
Although it may seem dangerous, the snake from Asclepius is not venomous.
As it symbolized regeneration and resurrection, an incredible amount of regenerative power flowed from the snake’s teeth and was passed on to Kang-cheol.
Wiggle.
This caused the body of the strong iron to regenerate quickly enough to be visible immediately.
“This is incredible. This is not a treatment level.”
“Still, if it weren’t for your first aid, I would have been in big trouble.”
“It’s something I should naturally do.”
As Kang-cheol’s body quickly recovered, the guild members watching from behind also breathed a sigh of relief.
– The constellation, ‘The Crow with its Head Down’, carefully examines your condition to see if you are not possessed by lust.
– The constellation, ‘The Serpent Surrounding Time’ breathes a sigh of relief.
– The constellation, the ‘sleeping goat’, is relieved to have escaped from lust unscathed and falls into a deep sleep again.
After some time, messages from the constellations also appeared.
The message from Lilith, who had said that he would watch over Seun, was nowhere to be seen.
I don’t know for sure, but I think he’s temporarily regaining his strength by offering divinity to Seun and losing one of his lustful bases.
While I was thinking like that, I was able to discover a message I had never seen before under the messages from the constellations.
– The divine power of lust is manifested, increasing the healing effect on the followers.
‘Role?’
As the message appeared, a faint green light flowed from the stigmata.
Even without the power of the Bogu, Kang-cheol’s body was recovering quickly, and he recovered noticeably even faster.
As he looked at that sight, Seun was reminded of the message he had seen when he received the divinity of Lilith.
‘Inheriting the divinity of lust, additional adjustments are made to actions, skills, and systems related to nurturing.’
Perhaps the current situation is related to what I saw back then.
If we recall the message, it seemed that additional corrections would be made to all methods, such as not only treatment, but also training or using buff magic.
The amount of divine power consumed isn’t that great, but it has this effect.
I have yet to use the power of lust, but my eyes are already wide open to the power of the Divine Lust.
“… … It came out.”
How much time has passed?
Kang Han-cheol, who had been in a state of near-death, opened his eyes, seemingly recovering to the point of appearing normal.
“great job.”
“If you know, set aside some time for sparring.”
I’m speechless at the thought of opening my eyes like that and immediately starting to talk.
Even just opening his eyes now was a matter of squeezing out his barely recovered strength, as he turned his head away and fell into a deep sleep as soon as he finished speaking.
The power of the Noble Phantasm is slowly fading away and the Rod of Asclepius is starting to blur, but if it has been cured to this extent, it is enough to leave the rest to Lee Ha-neul.
‘The power of lust… … .’
My body is itching to test out my newfound strength right away.
And the question of where to first experiment with this power had already been answered.
The final trial you must conquer before entering the eighth shelter.
The 70th trial, ‘The Flying Darkness’.
That was it.
