Episode 286
286. Massacre
Just a little while ago, Baal wasn’t in a good mood.
Even though it was the master’s order, it was not a pleasant task to monitor humans.
Moreover, if the target is a person who speaks informally to the lord.
‘You’re like an insect that doesn’t even have the slightest sense of etiquette.’
I felt bad, but only for a moment.
The master’s message was delivered to Baal’s mind as he left the Demon King’s Castle.
[Baal. Be sure to keep a close eye on the person called Black Scythe. To begin with, humans are an unreliable race. It’s clear there’s something up there. Most likely, rather than killing Michael, he would take advantage of the opportunity to run away. So he’ll keep an eye on him and kill him when he gets the chance. Kill it and bring back its soul. Even if I kill Michael as promised.]
Baal could not respond to Plunictos’ instructions.
Because it was a message that only those who were worthy of God could send.
So, I answered in my mind instead.
‘Don’t worry, Your Excellency. I will take the soul of the Black Scythe as you command.’
He told me to kill the person in front of me whether he kept his promise or not.
From the beginning, the lord had no intention of releasing the humans.
‘Is this why I like you?’
Grinning – The corner of Baal’s mouth curled up.
The feelings that were strong just a moment ago melted away like snow.
Baal’s job from now on was simple.
All you have to do is monitor the black scythe in a state of invisibility and intervene based on the timing.
‘Of course, you have to keep a distance of more than 30m.’
The player is said to have the ability to detect invisibility, so they must keep a sufficient distance between them.
‘Try running away somewhere. If you show even the slightest suspicious behavior, I will cut off your head mercilessly.’
As my lord said, I did not think that the black scythe would be able to deal with Michael.
He will most likely notice himself and hide under Michael’s wings.
‘It’s no use hiding behind Michael’s back. According to the rules, Michael cannot attack me. ‘Me too.’
However, there is nothing wrong with the rules about killing players.
‘Insolent human being. I’ll tear you to death like a rag wherever you hide.’
Baal excitedly chased after the black scythe.

fluttering-
Ryumin, who was swimming in the sky with his wings spread, was soon able to face the battlefield.
[Ugh! Kill it!]
[Demon bastards! Send everyone to the underworld!]
[I’ll send you to your favorite heaven, you angels!]
The battlefield was still fierce.
It was the same scene as before Ryumin left for the Demon King’s Castle.
The difference was that the 15,000 troops had already been reduced to several thousand, and one side was gaining ground.
‘If this continues, the Elyos will win.’
The Demons, who were overwhelming in numbers, suddenly became similar to the Elyos.
Just looking at the hanging corpses, there were more of them belonging to demons.
‘It’s probably because we humans joined in.’
The variable in this war was none other than the players.
Originally, the game was designed to put the Elyos at a disadvantage, but this 18th round was designed to turn the situation around depending on the player.
The results are clearly showing now.
‘A lot more players survived than expected, and the priests and other supporters in the buffer are alive and well, so the Elyos have no choice but to have an advantage.’
The role that exerts the greatest influence in such a large-scale war is, of course, the supporter.
All kinds of buffs are being applied not only to the player but also to the angels, so you won’t be able to get tired of it.
‘Just looking at this, I see that Minjoo-ri will take first place in terms of contribution? No, I’ll be coming out soon, so should I say I’m in second place?’
Ryumin looked down into the sky and looked for the players.
I see members of the Four Gods Church fighting here and there.
‘Luckily he didn’t die.’
Min-ri Min and other supporters were protecting themselves in the back as instructed.
Ryumin turned his head, relieved that a key member had not died.
Now it’s time to kill the angels.
‘There are a lot of prey.’
Ryumin grinned and approached the angel.
When I looked at the status window, my stats had doubled, probably because the Angel Slayer title had been activated.
This time, when I approached the devil, the title effect of [He who fights against evil] doubled the number again.
‘It’s good that the Elyos and Demons are together.’
The total stats increased four-fold.
Ryu Min, who had even used the Four Gods of Death while throwing away, checked the stat window.
-Strength: 11,058,094, Intelligence: 10,056,836
-Dexterity: 10,052,771, Luck: 10,061,066
‘That’s incredible. ’10 million per stat.’
In order to raise his stats, which had risen exponentially, even a little more, Ryu Min visited Min-ri Min.
“uh? Black Scythe? “What’s going on?”
Because of his death, he recognizes himself even though only a black figure is visible.

I guess it’s because I’ve seen it so many times that I’m used to it.
“I need a buff, so I’d like you to cast Buff Zone.”
“Oh, wait a minute. I was waiting because of the cooldown… … That’s enough!”
Minjoo-ri used the buff zone as if it was time.
As a yellow magic circle spread on the ground, the buffs of all allies within the range were strengthened by one level.
The Bless on Ryumin also increased from 80% to 100%.
“thanks.”
After saying that, Ryumin called Yamti who was nearby.
“Yamti.”
“Yes, Black Scythe.”
“Try releasing 100 mealworms.”
“all right.”
When the mealworm that had been tamed on Earth was released into the other world, Ryumin immediately stepped on it and killed it.
Kwasik-!
[Current kill count: 100/100]
[All stats increase by 100% due to the Rune of Massacre effect.]
‘With this, I also built up the massacre rune stats.’
Ryumin glanced down at the message.
[There are 391 enemies in a 100m radius.]
[All stats increase by 100% due to the rune effect of 100 Per Day.]
‘I got the maximum effect of 100 per day.’
I even used potions to raise all my stats to the maximum.
There are no more stats to raise.
Now all that remains is to use the buff.
[You are under the devil’s blessing.]
[The following effects are applied based on the total current stats (91,619,482).]
[When defeating an angel, gold equal to 1 times the standard value (91,619,482) is obtained.
Depending on the level of the angel, it increases up to 1,000 times (91,619,482,000)]
[When defeating an angel, you gain stat points equal to 0.01% (9,161) of the standard value.
Depending on the level of the angel, it increases up to 10% (9,161,948).]
[When an angel is defeated, the reputation of the devil camp increases slightly.]
[The buff lasts until the end of the round.]
Blessing was used as the highest stat that can currently be raised.
In addition, there was a buff given by the demon archduke, so I was excited to see what the stats would be when killing the angel.
‘Should I try killing him sometime?’
Without further ado, Ryumin threw his scythe, aiming at the angel nearby.
No, rather than throwing it, the sickle stretched like a female sword and pierced the angel.
[6th grade angel ‘Bentiel’ has been defeated!]
[Stat points+9,161]
[Gold+91,619,482]
[Number of angels killed: 1/100]
[Additional stats are gained through the ‘Evil Archduke’s Agent’ buff effect.]
[Additional stat points +4,580]
‘Hoo.’
Ryumin, who killed the angel, was impressed.
The buff effect increased the stats by as much as 50%.
‘If we use John Delgado here, we can have a stat feast, right?’
Ryumin smiled like a devil and started hunting angels in earnest.
As for hunting, there was nothing special about it.
All you have to do is make the sickle bigger and swing it where the angels are gathered.
Then, as if being swept away by a broom, dozens of angels caught on scythes die, sprinkling golden blood.
[6th rank angel ‘Borviel’ has been defeated!]
[The 4th rank angel ‘Althael’ has been defeated!]
[The third-class angel ‘Dreel’ has been defeated!]
… … … … … … … …
… … … … … …
… … … …
[Number of angels killed 138/100]
[Judgment Rune Stack: 100/100]
[You can use ‘Heavenly Judgment’ by consuming 100 stacks.]
Dozens of angels died without even being able to scream.
In just a few minutes, there were already over 100 people.
‘Shall we kill it a little faster?’
Ryumin must have accumulated a lot of stacks, so he used Heavenly Judgment.
Ku-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-!
There was an explosion sound and an X-shaped hole appeared in the floor.
[Number of angels killed 257/100]
When I saw that the number had risen, they killed close to 120 people.
When I used it towards a place where angels were concentrated, a lot of people died like this.
Is that why?
[W-what?!]
[what’s the matter!?]
The angels looked around in confusion.
When I quietly cut him with a sickle, he didn’t even look at me, but I only noticed him when I used the skill.
Either way, Ryumin continued the massacre with a dull expression.
Every time the scythe passed, a feast of golden blood unfolded.
Resistance was useless to the angels.
It was just like a mayfly struck by a natural disaster, cut down helplessly and reduced to a corpse.
[Hey, isn’t that a player?]
[What happened? The player will be on our side, right?]
[This is not the time. Oh, run away… … Gagging!]
The angels who realized the situation fled like a swarm of bees.
I didn’t even dare to think of resisting the player holding the black scythe.
Just looking at it, the difference in power is enormous.
The only way to survive was to escape from natural disasters.
[Aaaah!]
[Help me!]
The angels were not the only ones taken aback by the unexpected massacre that occurred inside.
[Look at that. The angels are making a fuss?]
[what’s the matter?]
[I don’t know.]
[Did Agaroth infiltrate the enemy camp?]
[Agaroth is over there?]
[Then what is it?]
Even the demons stopped fighting and looked at them in awe at the shocking situation that occurred in the enemy camp.
I don’t know what the situation was, but for those who were being pushed back, it was a desperate situation.
Although both sides were perplexed by the continued massacre of angels, there were some who remained calm.
They were none other than the Four Gods Church players.
Because I already heard it before the round started.
But calm did not last long.
Watching the merciless slaughter and screams made me frown a little.
The angels seemed pitiful.
“I guess you weren’t joking when you said you would team kill?”
“You killed it completely properly?”
“But if this continues, won’t we lose? “The number of Elyos is decreasing.”
“Then you tried to stop Black Scythe.”
“Are you crazy? “How can I stop that?”
How can you intervene when they are running around like crazy dogs?
“Then were you just watching? “What are you worried about when you have Black Scythe?”
“Yes, that’s right. Even if all the Elyos fall behind, with just one Black Scythe, we can turn the tide.”
“You must have something on your mind.”
The players just watched, believing in the black scythe.
Some people who had bad feelings toward the Elyos even cheered for them to kill more.
Some people looked at the black scythe with concern as if they were worried about his mental state.
Although the Elyos were busy running away.
* * *
Michael remembers what expression he made 30 minutes ago.
‘Black Scythe, I was so relieved to be able to shake off that bastard.’
On the other hand, it was also disappointing.
If he had kept the black scythe alive until round 20, he would have had the chance to become a god… … .
‘it’s okay. It’s over now, let’s forget about it. ‘The war takes precedence over my personal wishes.’
Since the outcome of the war depended on it, I had no choice but to hand over the black scythe to Plunictos as promised.
Of course, increasing the time does not guarantee that you will win the war.
‘However, since the possibility of Plunictos participating in the war has disappeared, there will at least be a small chance of victory.’
That’s all.
Even though the archangel is the only one left, how can he not win the war if his body is broken?
If done well, that is.
‘Now all that’s left is to finish the 18 rounds of friendly matches?’
Although it was a friendly match, 5,000 troops participated.
Considering the real war that will occur after the 20th round, each and every one of them is in a disappointing situation.
We can’t lose troops here.
‘I’ll do my best to kill the devil bastards.’
The thoughts about the black scythe had already disappeared from Michael’s mind.
Since he has been handed over to the Demon King, the chances of him coming back alive are close to zero.
Because it is almost impossible unless the demon archduke releases it.
But the impossible became a reality.
[How on earth is this… … .]
Michael was dazed by the current reality where screams for help were rampant.
The Elyos were taking the war to their advantage, but at some point, their momentum was lost.
The cause is none other than that guy.
The black devil running rampant in front of me like a crazy bastard.
‘How on earth does the black scythe… … ?’
It was clearly brought to the front of the Demon King’s Castle, but somehow it came out and slaughtered the angels.
‘What is this situation? It must be a party, so how can they kill the same Elyos? ‘What kind of magic did you use?’
That moment when I was caught in doubt.
Ku-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-!
More than a hundred angels died with the black scythe’s skill.
‘I can’t believe my precious troops disappeared like this… … .’
Crackling-
Michael’s face distorted like a devil.
[Kill it… … Kill it… … .]
Michael, who was muttering, flew towards the black scythe.
This rampaging psychopath must be stopped immediately.
‘But with my current strength, there’s no way.’
Currently, Michael’s power has been reduced to 1/100.
In order to maintain balance with other soldiers, there is a limit to the 18th round.
But constraints are just constraints.
Depending on the situation, you can unleash your full power at any time.
‘Can not help it. Even if I am reprimanded by the gods, I have no choice but to release my power.’
If you don’t unleash your power, you can’t defeat the black scythe.
Michael, who has suffered from the Black Scythe many times, knows this well.
[I don’t know how you got out of the Demon King’s Castle, but I will kill you. You ungrateful bastard.]
Michael has released the restrictions on his power.
That time when I raised my divine power to the maximum and flew towards the black scythe.
‘uh?’
Black Scythe’s eyes turned towards this direction.
I realized something was wrong, but it was already too late.
Slurp-
Michael’s severed head was already falling to the ground.
