Episode 704: The Giant of the Ruins
A sea monster disguised as a human.
The first thing I encountered after entering the fog had pincers growing out of its torso.
That in itself was fine.
The tower was a place with all sorts of strange monsters, and as it reached the 90th floor, it wouldn’t be strange for unheard of things to pop out.
but.
-Card grab!
-Kwaaaaang!
“No matter how you look at them, you can tell they’re not ordinary guys.”
They all boasted powers that surpassed imagination.
Even though I stab, twist, and cut with my sword, he ignores me and comes at me.
They even allowed an attack in the middle.
The village was covered in fog, and it would not be strange if the people living there were called monsters.
“It’s more annoying when you die without saying a word.”
I kicked the bodies of the guys I had killed.
A crustacean’s leg protruding from its split stomach.
Some fish heads opened their mouths, showing off their fangs, and some even wiggled their tentacles.
The dead, with their grotesque appearances, just look at me with empty eyes.
The stench and foul odor coming from them.
The pungent, putrid smell of gas and rot, characteristic of polluted seas.
Even poisons and hallucinogens that seep into it without us knowing.
My head is still pounding.
I feel like my body is floating, as if I have a nerve-racking temper.
I feel like I’m being shaken by the buildings and lanterns that are swaying at will.
Maybe I’m really staggering.
“Yeah.”
“Oh, yeah. There’s more.”
How many have you killed so far?
I don’t know.
I didn’t even count from the middle.
I’m not sure if it’s accurate, but I think I caught at least twenty, but there were still many more people wandering around the village.
Poorly acting like a human.
Stalls and street vendors spread out along the road.
Parents and children wandering among street food vendors.
It looked better when viewed from beyond the fog.

I thought it was an illusion he was showing me.
It still feels like a hallucination, but it’s more blatant now.
“Do you want to play house?”
Bones and stones picked up somewhere.
I frowned at the sight of someone handing me something rotten and rotten like ice cream and chewing on it.
Did you want to express a happy family?
In that case, my rating is 10.
[Aurora Beam (SSS) Lv.6]
-Chooooooow!
A beam of light boasting five different colors rushes at them.
A guy who falls over and loses his head on the ground.
I kicked my feet at the sight of her opening her mouth wide as if screaming but never making a sound.
He runs away, flailing his limbs as if he sees me as a monster.
“What are you looking at? You should show yourself too.”
-Crunch.
I drew my sword.
A street vendor selling something rotten.
The creature’s arm is severed and a giant fin sprouts out.
-Gurrrrrr.
A fin that cannot grow from a person’s body.
At first glance, it looked like a wing, but its thickness and the protrusions on its edges were more like fins.
-Koosh!
As I swung my sword again, the creature also extended its fins.
It seems like he was trying to push me away using his absolute weight.
[Full-scale (S)] [Weight increases!]
-Kkikkik. Squeak.
I don’t lose in a weight fight either.
The body that was being pushed away gradually stops.
I plant my feet deep in the ground and hold on, and the thing trembles and gives me strength.
Do you want a showdown?
Or maybe we should shake hands?
If you want.

[Cling (S) Lv.MAX] [Electric Shock (SS) Lv.10]
-Phase support support!
A powerful spark flies.
A guy who is shaking all over from being shocked.
You tried to get away from me, but it was no use.
He burned the bastard until his skin burned and something he couldn’t tell was bodily fluid or sap oozed out of his skin.
Advertisements
-Kwaaang!
A guy who poundes the floor in fits and starts.
The ground shatters and debris flies.
He covered his eyes with his arms.
Numbers that are not the same.
He pulled the guy towards him, frowning.
He grabbed the face he could hold in one hand and held it tightly.
[Fire Bomb (SSS) Lv.10]
-Kwaaaaaaaang!
It just blew up.
A guy falls over with his head missing along with black smoke.
Since they can’t even scream anyway, they don’t need brains.
He brushed away the dust from the flying debris.
“Don’t die nicely, you’re bothering me.”
There are still many left… … .
Towering.
I froze as I held the sword.
does not exist.
Those things that should be biting and attacking me are running away from me.
I saw her running away, holding in her arms a thing that looked like a child.
Not a person.
The child’s face had turned into a fish, and blood was flowing out from his forehead where shrapnel had lodged.
no way.
“Did you kill time?”
I looked down at the headless man.
her.
I burst out laughing because it was so absurd.
I don’t know if it was intentional or a coincidence, but one thing was certain.
I feel so dirty.
The moment I hold my sword with boiling murderous intent.
I felt uncomfortable.
‘Mood swings have increased.’
It’s true that it’s a situation that makes me angry enough, but it’s not like me.
Especially when you get caught up in anger before a battle?
I know this well, as I have been provoking those I have dealt with so far.
How dangerous emotional turmoil can be in a battle where one mistake can kill you.
Advertisements
But I act like this?
“Does fog also have the effect of stirring up emotions?”
Or maybe it’s because of the environment.
No matter how much you package it, it’s far from a good environment.
Than that.
“Other guys must have come in too.”
A signal flare was fired.
It’s not just me.
Some people entered the fog before I arrived.
Because I too had come to check the signal flares that others had fired.
A place where sunlight doesn’t even come in properly.
It’s enough to make the concept of time disappear.
Somehow Smile Cap was wearing a watch.
It’s unfortunate, but there’s nothing we can do about it.
It’s fog, but it’s fog.
‘If Erembat steps forward himself, then the clock will be meaningless.’
Haven’t we met once?
I thought it was just a fleeting moment, but in reality, hours had passed.
It’s the same here.
Even though I was standing on the ground like this, I didn’t know that water might still be rising.
It might have risen to the neck.
This may be the reason why I feel stuffy and heavy for some reason.
Fortunately, this place is attached to the central island, so it will take some time for the water to rise.
-Pew pew.
I could see green smoke in the distance.
A flare?
Although it was quickly lost in the fog, the signal flare was clear.
It may be an illusion created by Erembat.
Then it must be a trap to pull us towards the sea.
What to do.
“let’s go.”
“Yeah.”
The worries were short.
It could be a trap, but it could also be a real signal.
I don’t care if it actually brings me to the sea.
Advertisements
Because you can escape the moment you submerge in water and the underwater breathing skill is activated.
Let’s figure out how to get out of this damn fog later.
If you don’t like it, just die once.
“This is what coins are for.”
Try anything.
I will do the same.
-grasp!
I flew towards where the signal flare was.
I crossed the town, which seemed much larger than reality, ignoring the people I encountered along the way.
We passed a wide plaza and temple filled with sculptures of a style that we have never seen before.
“What is that?”
I could see a giant jumping on top of it.
giant.
I couldn’t see it any other way.
They are beings of a different dimension than anything I’ve seen before.
More elaborate human figures were running wild.
“Keuuuup! Kuluck!”
I saw the fire ship that had been hit by the guy crash into the ground like lightning.
Was it the firearm that fired the signal flare?
Was Hwamu-seon fighting those guys alone?
If something that big is fighting, it should be visible from far away.
The noise should spread as much as the building is destroyed.
‘I didn’t know either.’
I realized that I hadn’t noticed it either.
The fog obscured my eyes and muffled my sounds.
The owner of this place.
“Erembat of Silence and Gaze.”
Because it’s that guy.
-Kuung. Thump.
The giants walk out.
Is this to tie them up?
Someone was seen moving along the bodies of these people, who boasted of being tens of meters tall.
Wherever she moves, large holes appear and rotten blood spurts out.
“Awl Fairy!”
I felt her eyes turn towards me.
Advertisements
There was no answer.
Because there was no room for that.
If you stop even for a moment, you’ll get hurt.
[Rainbow Bridge (S)]
-Whoaaaaah!
The awl fairy used the rainbow bridge against the guy she was dealing with.
Legs extending at top speed.
-Pfft!
The rainbow bridge, which had the option to be indestructible while moving, blocked the fist swung by the awl fairy.
A rainbow bridge vibrating violently.
The fragments flew.
It’s not completely broken.
But the fact that it is cracked and broken doesn’t change.
I was surprised by the unprecedented situation, but I soon came to my senses.
The chaos I feel from them.
Because I’ve always known that chaos breaks the rules.
You must have ignored some of the indestructible options.
[Wear the left wing of the wingless angel (SSS)!] [Wear the right wing of the demon king (SSS)!]
He spread his wings wide and displayed his sword power.
A sword that is imbued with magical power and grows in size.
“Get out of here!”
[SSS-grade power, the unyielding swordsman flashes!] [Sword Power] [Soul Tear (SSS) Lv.5]
-Whoaaaaah!
-Crackle. Crackle!
As soon as the bastard’s arm is cut off, you can hear the sound of his soul being torn apart.
The guy’s arm suddenly sags as his strength drains.
“Nice, evil eye!”
The awl fairy, her hair drenched in sweat, extends her fist.
I wanted to respond to that bright smile, but I sensed something strange.
“damage!”
Half instinctive.
I screamed at the crisis detection ability I had built up over time.
“uh?”
The giant’s arm, which had fallen limply, rose again and grabbed the awl fairy.
I tried to stop the bastard’s arm by detonating a fire bomb, but he was strong.
[Sticking (S) Lv.MAX] [Payback (SSS) Lv.5]
-Kugugugu.
-Kwaaaaaaaang!
I used my whole body to cling to his arm and use my revenge.
Advertisements
The most powerful blow with a single firepower.
A wave spreads out so strong that the fog lifts in an instant.
Even with the sword and soul ripping, the guy’s arm that was moving just bursts and falls off.
-Kuuuung.
Forearm stuck in the floor.
That alone is a size that would require several express buses to be combined.
The awl fairy twisted its body between the fists it had clenched until then, but that only lasted for a moment.
He lost consciousness and vomited blood.
“Deokchun-ah!”
“Geeeek!”
I wanted to go and check it out myself, but I couldn’t.
Even after losing an arm, the giant did not stop.
When it comes to recovery, Deokchun is much better than me.
-Crackle. Crackle.
It flew through the sky and confused the guy’s sight.
Needless to say, he stabbed me with his sword whenever he saw an opening.
Every time I swung my sword, I used Soul Tear.
The subtle sensation of cutting the bastard’s arm.
‘This guy, his soul is not one.’
It didn’t feel like it was ripped apart all at once.
It felt like several pieces of my soul were being torn apart.
It must be for the same reason that he was able to move his arms straight.
What kind of monster have you created?
[Full refund]
-Kuuuung!
He squeezed the bastard’s shoulder.
The bastard’s legs buckle under the unexpected weight.
Aurora beams in perfect time.
-Kugugugu!
The guy with the pierced ear gets down on one knee.
Phew.
I turned my body over to avoid the hand of the guy who was reaching out as if to catch a fly.
The wind blows past me where I was.
That alone was enough to shake the balance.
[Frozen Break (SS) Lv.5] [Cling (S) Lv.MAX]
Freezes parts of the bastard’s body and immobilizes him.
I ran on the ice road that I made by sticking to it.
Advertisements
-Kwaaang!
A fire bomb exploded behind your back.
I spun around, surrendering myself to the force of the recoil.
A sword swung while squeezing every muscle in the body.
A sword ten meters long created by pouring magical power flashed.
-Quaddududduk!
The bastard’s neck was cut off with a flash of light.
Rotten blood spurts out and falls like rain.
He kicked away the collapsing giant and flew up again.
The head of a guy rolling on the floor.
Looks familiar.
“Hero of the Ruins.”
Numerous statues located deep within the ruins.
That’s the face that was there.
