Episode 879
“This, a blow?”
Borgos’ bloody lips trembled as he looked at the Balrog with its head torn off.
‘I never thought I would cut that monster down with one sword…’ .’
He knows better than anyone else the power of the devil wrapped in flames.
I couldn’t believe that I had crushed the top-class weapon Thunder’s Hammer with my little finger and killed with one single sword the monster that had burned down everything that the Gray Hammer Guild had built with just a small spark.
‘It’s not strange to call it the new Sword God.’
I heard rumors that Raon had reached the transcendent level, but I had no idea that he had reached the stabilization stage beyond the beginning. Incredible talent. It was a growth force that overturned the history of the continent.
“yes!”
Martha struck her palm with the hand holding the sword.
“You have to do that much to make it crazy!”
She nodded, saying it was refreshing.
“Are we even using lightning now?”
Burren let out a laugh as if it was absurd.
“Flame, frost, wind, earth, and then lightning… .”
He lowered his eyebrows, wondering what power he would use next.
“Raon Daejonjal today.”
Even though Runaan was busy protecting the burned dwarves and artisans, she did not take her purple eyes off Raon’s back.
“her… .”
Cheryl let out an exclamation of surprise after cutting down five demons at once.
‘That sword technique I learned from the head of the family this time.’
I remember Glenn being so excited that he would teach Raon the Thunder Blade.
Put the swordsmanship you learned in just one night into practice. The thought of using it on a monster that had reached transcendence and cut off its head was so absurd that I was speechless.
“Is it over now?”
Dorian panted and lowered his sword.
“Then let’s go back quickly, right? It’s so hot here that it’s not good for the injured… .”
“no.”
Raon shook his head, interrupting Dorian.
“Now is the beginning.”
As soon as the words “beginning” were finished, a fountain of flames rose from the headless Balrog’s neck.
Hahaha!
The thick flames brought back to life the head of the Balrog, with five horns sticking out, as if it had been touched by a craftsman’s delicate touch.
“I didn’t know he would hit it right away. “And that’s at a speed beyond my knowledge.”
Balrog mumbled that it was amazing and massaged the back of his neck.
“Keuuuuuck!”
Dorian screamed and fell to the ground, as if he had never imagined that the Balrog would be resurrected.
“Mo, you can survive even if your head is cut?”
“Damn it! “What kind of lizard tail is that?”
“As persistent as it is ugly… .”
Buren, Marta, and Runan also had stiff expressions and trembled lips as if they had seen something they couldn’t see.
“It would be weirder for a demon to die just by cutting off its head.”
Raon relaxed his fingers without the slightest embarrassment.
-Did you know that you would come back to life?
Lars whistled in surprise.
‘Because I’ve already seen it once.’
The Flame Demon Lord, who was the transcendent of the Black Tower, did not die even though his head was pulled out by Ras.
It would have been even stranger if Balrog, the strongest among the demons, had died by cutting his throat.
Of course, I was predicting that my hair would regenerate.
“You seem to be a more seasoned prey than I thought.”
The Balrog took a long sip as if he liked it.
“Don’t be bluff.”
Raon looked up at Balrog with his chin tilted.
“Even though I’m not dead, I feel like my energy has diminished.”
The Balrog consumed quite a bit of energy while regenerating its head.
Unlike the first time when I felt a difference in power, the guy’s energy now was no different from my own.
“It’s not bragging.”
The Balrog stretched out his arms and curled the corners of his mouth.
“I’m just happy to be able to fight a strong person like you. It doesn’t matter if I die, you die, or both die! “Come with all your might!”
He stamped his foot with such enthusiasm that it made his skin tingle. The thin earth exploded, and lava and fire rose from all directions.
“No, you are the only one who dies.”
Raon chewed his lip and drew a red line. A silver-white flash like frost cut through the fierce flames and struck the Balrog’s head.
It was a sight as if a meteor moving in the sky was sinking into the burning earth.
“I’ll break it!”
As the Balrog reached out into the burning flames, a sticky greatsword that seemed to have sprung from a source of lava was caught in his grasp.
Whoa!
The flames from Balrog’s great sword roared as if they would cover the heavens and earth, erasing the cold air created by the enemy island.
Quaaaaaaaaaaa!
Two swords covered in flame and frost clashed, and a roar that shook the heavens and earth erupted.

The white, frozen ground was split into pieces, and the hardened lava spouted fire again and covered the ground.
It was a sight as if the world had come to an end.
“You’re not running away?”
Balrog raised his sharp eyes as if he was surprised.
“For a human, you have a fighting stance. But it’s not a good choice.”
He curled his lips, saying he had made a wrong choice.
“Because your weak body won’t be able to withstand my strength!”
Balrog strengthened his hand holding the great sword, saying he would crush it like this.
But no matter how much strength he added, Raon’s arms and legs did not shake.
“Hold on? How do humans… .”
Balrog’s eyes widened in disbelief.
“Now it’s your turn to bear it.”
When Raon raised his wrist as if he was at ease, the thin Jecheon Sword began to push away the flaming greatsword as big as the pillar of a building.
Coo coo coo coo!
There was astonishment in the eyes of both humans and demons as they watched Raon push away a Balrog that was more than twice as big.
“… “This is human power?”
Balrog held the great sword with both hands, as if embarrassed by the loss of his strength, but he still could not maintain his momentum, and all he could do was withstand Raon’s strength.
“Is it difficult to be this surprised?”
Raon tilted his chin, looking at Balrog’s bewildered eyes.
“It’s just the beginning.”
-joy. Since he sucked out the bones and flesh of the original king, it is only natural that such a bastard should be crushed lightly.
Lars snorted, saying it was strange to lose.
‘yes.’
Thanks to Lass, he has possessed physical abilities that surpass those of the Transcendent ever since he was a Grand Master.
This time, as I reached transcendence, my abilities and characteristics increased tremendously, so I felt like I had a body that could not be defeated by Balrog.
“good night! “Let’s fight with all our might until the end!”
Balrog stamped his feet as if his pride was hurt when he was unable to overwhelm with his strength, causing his demonic energy to peak.
The flames coming from the great sword grew stronger and the area around him began to melt into white.
Cheeeeee!
Raon opened his frost kite towards the Balrog fire sword that surged like a tidal wave.
Two lines of silver flash cut through the flames and struck down the great sword of the Balrog approaching from behind.
Blah blah blah!
The Jecheon Sword drawn by Raon and the Great Sword of Flame stabbed by Balrog clashed in succession, causing a black crack to open and the entire tunnel to shake.
As if chaos had come to this world, the lava that filled the earth began to stir and scatter sticky embers in all directions.
Coo coo coo coo!
Raon and Balrog walked on the blood-red lava and glared at each other with thuggish swords.
The entire tunnel shook with each step carrying the weight of transcendence.
A clash of power and speed with no catch. The infinite power that created heaven and earth collided endlessly.
The lava was split by the whirlwind created by the sharp sword, and the soft stones were broken and scattered. Everything that existed around the two transcendents was disappearing.
‘Running like a wild boar, not caring about injuries… .
Rather than stabbing, Raon frowned as he struck away the Balrog’s great sword that was threatening to explode.
‘It’s similar to unmanned, but different.’
No matter how much a fighter focuses on strength and speed, he or she instinctively moves to avoid injury.
However, Balrog pushed in with force and fighting spirit, without even bothering to focus on the vital area, as if he wanted to kill himself and kill himself as well.
The swordsmanship itself was amazing, but the movements themselves were filled with faith and soul, so it was not easy to deal with them.
“You seem to be getting tired now!”
Balrog seemed to think he had gained momentum and held his greatsword upside down with a cruel smile.
The flames flowed like a waterfall, forming a long, smooth whip of flame. It was like seeing a dragon’s tail.
Hwaaaaaaa!
When the Balrog lashed out with his whip of flame, nine streams of flame rained down on his head. It seemed like the fire dragon was spewing flames endlessly.
Couuuuuuuuuck!
Raon erected a wall of frost beads to block the flame whip and exhaled briefly.
‘The more you fight, the stronger you become?’
Balrog seemed to gain strength the more he fought, exerting stronger fighting spirit and putting pressure on himself.
The flame of the whip he was swinging turned blue and even began to burn Glacia’s cold air.
“That kind of cold can’t stop my flame!”
The Balrog laughed at Glacia’s coldness and changed the whip back into a flaming greatsword and slashed.
Couuuuuuuuuck!
Raon was able to block Balrog’s great sword, but the heat was so strong that the cold surrounding the Jecheon Sword began to melt.
-How dare he!
Lars gritted his teeth and raised his head.
-What are you doing! The main king is being ignored!
The guy gritted his teeth as if asking why he was being bullied.
-By force, George!
‘I was already thinking of doing that.’
Raon nodded lightly. Now that I had figured out all of Balrog’s sword techniques and abilities, I was planning to end it now.
“I mean, try harder!”
As the Balrog drew a horizontal line in the lava with the great sword he held with both hands, a roar as if the world was being torn apart erupted.
Amidst the intense heat, the howling of the wind increased, creating terrifying waves of flame.
This entire space seemed to be held in the Balrog’s red grasp.
Quaaaaa!
Raon stabbed the sword of the Jecheon Sword towards the incoming Balrog greatsword.
The extraordinary cold made frost bloom on the sharp blade and spread throughout the underground.
The final battle of the Demon King of Anger.
Silver Aurora.
The silver aurora drawn with swordsmanship has bloomed brilliantly in the realm of transcendence.
Quaaaaaaa!
The bitter cold breath that bites the air swirls and seeps into the waves of flame. Beautiful waves of ice bloomed everywhere where different colored air collided.
The lava and flames that covered the entire underground subsided, and only the silver world survived.
It was the result of drawing out the power of Mother Nature in a realm of transcendence that was beyond the reach of humans.
Quad deud deuk!
The fire storm frozen in front of the silver aurora was colored with a brilliant silver light, as if looking at the world tree of frost that symbolized Lass.
“Now, wait! “This cold!”
The Balrog tried to push away the silver aurora by creating a flame, but the silver world had already tied its limbs and tightened its torso and neck.
“Yes, you and the Lord of Wrath…” “Sigh!”
The Balrog could not finish his last sentence and his mouth and even head froze.
“You talk a lot.”
Raon twisted his mouth and drew the Jecheon Sword.
Quaaaaaaaaaaa!
The frozen body of the Balrog burst, and all the boiling lava and flames subsided. Unlike before, there was not even the slightest trace of vitality in his body.
“Whoa… .”
Raon lowered his sword and sighed briefly.
‘It’s definitely not easy.’
It seemed like it was simple, but in fact, there was a slight difference. If he hadn’t used Las’s decisive battle to draw out all of Glacia’s power, he could have been burned.
-Well done!
Lars waved his round hand up and down.
-He ignored the power of the main king! It looks great!
The guy looked at the torn pieces of Balrog and waved his tail.
‘You give me compliments and all sorts of things happen.’
Raon lowered his sword and smiled.
-compliment? When is this king?
‘They said you did well.’
-Well, that’s just something that came out! Don’t be arrogant and grab a guy who doesn’t know how to use his power properly!
Lars shook his head, saying he was just a kid.
‘Don’t be c*cky. But transcendence is definitely different.’
A state where the sword moves the way you want and even the power of Mother Nature can be controlled. After catching the ancient dragon and the Balrog, I finally feel like I have reached transcendence.
‘hmm?’
Raon smiled in satisfaction and then narrowed his pupils. A faint magical energy was felt at the end of the tunnel where the lava disappeared.
‘Isn’t this the magic power of Balrog?’
The Balrog’s energy was calm as if it were a warrior, but an ugly energy was felt in the traces of demonic energy left on the ground where the Balrog had apparently been summoned.
‘I knew it… .’
It was summoned by someone else.
The Balrog he fought was definitely strong, but he was not strong enough to break through the dimension on his own like the demon lords.
It was clear that someone had made a lot of preparations to summon him.
‘It’s probably the Black Tower.’
There is nothing to see. The only people who use this level of tainted magic energy are the demons of the Black Tower.
‘Were you trying to let him grow in power in this space and then pull him out?’
It’s not clear, but it seems like they were planning to summon the Balrog underground, subdue the dwarves, and then make both sides their forces.
‘I don’t know if I should call this a blessing… .’
By dealing with the Balrogs and demons before they grew stronger, we prevented a situation where thousands or even tens of thousands of people could have died.
However, there were many people who died here as well, so I couldn’t just be happy.
Raon turned around, feeling bitterness on the tip of his tongue. He smiled and nodded to people who were looking at him with nervous faces.
“It’s done. “You can rest assured now.”
He shook off the remaining heat from the Balrog in his grasp and nodded.
“Hey, you’re not being resurrected anymore?”
Dorian lifted a trembling finger and pointed at the frozen body of the Balrog.
“I don’t know if it will be resurrected or not, but even if it does, it won’t be a threat.”
Raon shook his head lightly. Even if non-human beings are revived, most of them consume a lot of power.
If Balrog were to be revived now, it would end at Sheryl’s hands without her having to step forward.
“You said it was Balrog earlier. What is it?”
Marta narrowed her eyes as if remembering what she first said.
“Demon.”
Raon looked back at Balrog’s corpse and clicked his tongue.
“It is a very strong fighting race among demons.”
I briefly recited the explanation Lars had given me.
“Balrog? Well, now that I think about it… .”
Borgos lifted his head, his chin trembling.
“I remember my father saying there were such monsters. He said they were greedy for fire, battle, and weapons.”
He blurted out that it had finally occurred to him.
“I said that among all races, there are few people who can compete with you, but you… .”
Borgos came up to Raon, his knees scabbed with hardened blood.
“thanks. No, thank you. “There’s nothing I can say other than thank you.”
He said thank you for saving the dwarves and people and knelt down on the still hot ground.
Even though my skin was getting soggy, I lowered my head without even a moan.
“thank you.”
“thank you so much… .”
The dwarves and artisans from the Gray Hammer guild also knelt behind Borgos and pounded the ground with their fists, not caring about the injuries. It was a greeting from craftsmen.
“Don’t do this.”
Raon motioned for Borgos and the artisans to stand up.
“I only helped because I could.”
He shook his head and said it wasn’t that big of a deal.
“No, it’s a big deal. “If you hadn’t come, we would have just banged the hammer and died in this fire.”
Borgos said that this greeting was not enough and bowed his head once again.
“Then, first get treatment and then say hello. It’s burdensome… .”
-Raon!
Raon shook his head and urgently turned around. Lars seemed to feel the same thing and shouted his name like a scream.
Quad deud deuk!
The space where the Balrog died splits apart. No, the space itself was roughly torn apart, and pitch-black waves like an abyss rushed in.
Kwaaaaaaaa!
Unable to withstand the powerful force that opened the dimension, the underground space exploded violently like a broken window.
Whoa!
I quickly pulled out my Heavenly Sword and blocked the energy wave that exploded from inside the dimension, but its power was so strong that I had no choice but to be pushed back.
Other people were unable to withstand the shock wave that opened the dimension and jumped backwards, hitting their backs against the wall.
“Ugh… .”
Raon wiped the blood flowing from the corner of his mouth and lifted his gaze with difficulty.
Coo!
Two red-burning eyes emerged from the gap in the pitch-black space.
An eerie eye glow as if pulled from the depths of hell. It had a similar shape to the Balrog that had died a while ago, but its essence was different.
I felt the absolute majesty that looks down on all living people. It felt like my soul was burning just by looking into his eyes.
-Why is that guy here?
Lars screamed as if it made no sense.
‘no way… .’
– King Bon must have said this earlier. He is said to have a fighting spirit that kicked down the throne of the demon world.
The guy swallowed dry saliva and continued speaking.
-That guy is Askara, the leader of the Balrogs of the time.
