<[Episode 20] BLOODY FEST (5) >
The absolute being of the corner cannot go outside the realm of the corner.
It was the same in the descent.
So, one preliminary task was necessary for the descent: I had to zone out the area where I would move.
That is, this place had the same characteristics as a corner of a house or the inside of an outpost.
Why did you come down in front of him and provoke him?
[An entity hostile to the Absolute in the corner of the house has been discovered.]
It was to utilize the system’s ability to eliminate everything that was hostile to me.
[Remove.]
With a concise reminder.
Phew!
The situation seemed to end with Jinjo’s head exploding.
But the bastard’s vitality was much more tenacious than I thought.
Choaaaak-!
The body of the headless man burst out in blood.
and.
“Khuung!”
The urgent cries of Owen Ju, who was in a state of supersonization, were heard.
Her eyes were focused on my back as she ran toward me, reaching out her hand.
Immediately after that.
Kwaaaaang!
A loud noise was heard behind me.
When I turned my head, Jinjo was there, glaring at me with eyes that were so bloodshot that they were completely red.
The bloody tentacles that the guy had suddenly extended stopped trembling in front of me.
Jiying
A transparent protective shield with a radius of about 1m was rippling around me.
‘How are you alive?’
Is it because the vampires’ main body is their heart?
But I’m sure it’s not just because of that.
‘The Eyes of the Absolute.’
Even with the skill, the bastard’s condition wasn’t that good.
His movements were noticeably slower than before I arrived here, and his hunched expression and ragged breathing were proof of this.
It was natural.
Originally, this space was one that could not be moved or entered without citizenship.
It was a miracle that you were able to intrude and move around here without my permission.
‘There’s something in that flame.’
Hurrruk!
The crimson flames still covered the bastard’s entire body.
“Kwaaah!”
Jinjo’s desperate screams, unable to bear the pain, echoed throughout the area.
And as I watched the crimson flames burning the bastard’s entire body, I realized something.
‘Are you fighting each other?’
I could know because I was looking through the eyes of the Absolute.
The black and red energies were fighting over territory.
Among the two flames, the black aura was exactly like the aura used by Ha Dong-geon.
‘What is this…?’
When I realized it, I knew it instinctively.
That the black energy is a power that comes from me.
And at the same time, I could see why he dared to resist within my territory.
‘It’s thanks to the red energy protecting his entire body.’
The fact that you were able to break through the transparent barrier before, and that you are now moving within my territory without my permission, were all based on the power of that red energy.
at that time.
[An entity hostile to the Absolute in the corner of the house has been discovered.]
[Remove.]
At the same time that the system alarm appeared again, Jinjo’s body floating in the air and the bloody tentacles extending towards me swelled up in colorful patterns.
and.
Phew!
This time, the body of the guy who was floating in the air completely exploded.
dump!
The flesh of the bastard burst out in all directions and fell onto the blood-soaked floor, melting and disappearing.
however.
‘System notifications do not appear.’
This time it was the same.
The fact that the hunt completion notification didn’t appear meant that the bastard wasn’t dead.
Just a moment ago, not only his head but his heart had clearly burst, yet the bastard was still alive.
‘…The heart is not the body?’
That was when.
Bubbling

The blood soaking the floor began to boil and soon began to emit a red fog.
Although my field of vision narrowed drastically, it wasn’t difficult for me to keep my eyes on the absolute being and discern its movements.
I immediately used my skill after seeing the blood mist gathering behind Owen’s back.
‘Invisible Hand’
And the moment the bastard’s body materializes.
Phew!
An invisible hand pierced the heart of the man who was trying to target Owen Ju.
and.
‘Giant’
Phew!
The invisible hand that pierced his heart grew larger and his entire body was destroyed.
However, the mangled body quickly became absorbed into the blood mist and disappeared.
‘I see.’
The Eye of the Absolute was not simply a skill to see a place or feel space.
The ‘Wise Man’s Eye’ function, which was unlocked at level 3, was limited to only showing the level of monsters and simple information outside of the area, but its function within the area was on a different level.
The Eye of the Absolute within the proper realm played a role worthy of the skill name that included the modifier ‘Absolute’.
It allowed us to observe the entire space and instantly ‘analyze’ and ‘understand’ what was happening within it.
That’s why I could notice it.
‘The main body of the bastard is not the heart, but the blood itself.’
The reason why Jinjo keeps coming back to life.
That’s because the body of the materialized thing wasn’t the main body.
Strictly speaking, it could be said to correspond to a body part, like a hand or a foot.
The main body of the bastard was neither the head nor the heart, but the blood itself spread out on the floor.
‘then.’
To kill him, I had to burn all this blood.
I was fully aware of that fact and asked for what I wanted.
At that moment.
Paaaaat-
[An entity hostile to the Absolute in the corner of the house has been discovered.]
[Subdue.]
Phew!
The blood mist that had been spread everywhere and the blood that had soaked the floor all burst out.
‘also’
I’ve been thinking a lot about the manifestation of the system.
As the home territory expands, why are some beings recognized as eligible for citizenship, while others are eliminated?
This was because the expression ‘hostile entity’ in the system notification was very ambiguous.
If the system had been absolute, the incident where Jegal Seong-gyu came into my territory and turned the citizens into vampires or ate them would not have happened.
But it actually happened.
I thought about what that standard might be and came up with several hypotheses, one of which was somewhat applicable to the current situation.
‘First his head exploded, then his body exploded, centering around his heart.’
If the standard by which the system exerts its power is deeply involved with my consciousness, then the current situation makes sense.
That’s why this happened now, because I realized that the bastard’s body was blood itself.
and.
‘The power control was also successful.’
The system notification that was previously expressed as ‘removal’ has now been changed to the expression ‘suppression’.
‘Even what appears to be an automatic response of the system can be controlled by my will.’
This time it was definitely proven.
I looked at the completely subdued Jinjo, feeling elated that my hypothesis was correct.
The large amount of blood that had soaked the ground and the blood mist that had filled the surroundings had disappeared without a trace, and before my eyes a slender man was lying on the floor with his head buried in his hands.
I was shaking less.
No longer was the crimson flame burning his body.
That’s what it meant to ‘subdue’.
That he was stripped of all his available energy and strength.
Even the system took away his youth.
The life force, which is the source of the vampire’s power, has been suppressed to such an extreme that the vampire is barely able to breathe.
He spoke to a man who had suddenly aged, become half-bald, and whose remaining hair was thin and gray.
“hey.”
I could have just killed him like that, but there was something I was still curious about for Jinjo.
“What is the identity of that red power you possess?”
And then slowly he released the force that had been holding the bastard’s face back.
In an instant, the old man raised his head with difficulty.
The man with the miserable expression asked me a question without even answering my question.
“What are you?”
It seemed like he had no intention of answering my questions.
‘But even if I ask, there’s no way I can teach you.’
Since I hadn’t subdued him in the first place to extract information, I didn’t really have anything to regret.
The vampire continued to ask questions with a slurred speech, his teeth gone.
“Why does a being like you exist in this world- Kkuluk!”
The man was unable to continue speaking and started spitting out black blood.
It seemed like there was a limit.
Jinjo muttered to himself while shedding tears.
“Ahhh – the connection with the Great One… is a blessing…!”
It seemed like he was already out of his mind.
“Mr. Owen Ju.”
“…yes.”
“Please finish it.”
“All right.”
Owen Joo was currently in a state of disarray.
This is because her body was also in a considerably damaged state.
Just before using Gangrim, when the power of Jinjo was released and the whole of Ulsan was covered in blood, a powerful wave of power burst out from here.
Because of that, my father, who was fighting at the closest distance, was blown all the way to the area near Taehwa River.
Naturally, Owen Ju, who was nearby, also suffered significant damage, but he still risked his life to approach Jinjo.
So it was right to leave the finishing touches to Owen Ju.
‘Economically speaking, that’s right.’
He poured money into his vassals in preparation for the fight against the vampires.
It was natural that even the newly joined players would spend money to level up as much as possible.
‘The higher the level, the more extreme the inefficiency becomes.’
But I had no regrets.
If you had invested passively, you would have definitely suffered a lot of losses.
Phew!
Jinjo, whose source of all power was sealed, was forced to face a futile death as soon as Oh Eun-ju’s hand pierced his heart.
In an instant, the body of the old man, who had become ugly, disappeared from the heart and was settled.
[You have hunted Jinjo (Lv. 62).]
[You gain a huge amount of experience points.]
[995,858,494,923 won was deposited into the wallet of the absolute owner of the house.]
‘uh?’
For a moment I thought I had misread the number units.
‘A million, ten million, a hundred million, a billion…’
The money I got from hunting Jinjo was a lot.
‘Ninety-nine hundred billion?’
Almost 1 trillion won was deposited.
‘No…? Is this right?’
The money he made from catching one Jinjo was more than the money he had earned up until then.
‘No matter how many benefits overlap…’
Perhaps the crown that still sits on his head played a big role in creating this huge sum of money.
Because of the crown’s effect on the citizens and the title of Viscount that Owen has, he ends up receiving nine times the original settlement amount.
and.
‘The settlement amount is this huge…’
Of course, this also meant that the amount of experience points was ridiculously huge.
[Skill level has increased.]
[Skill level has increased.]
[Skill level has increased.]
[Skill level has increased.]
[Skill level has increased.]
This naturally led to an explosive increase in skill level.
‘Oh, shit, this is fu*ked up.’
Immediately after that.
Shushuk-
As the time of descent ends and I return to my home.
“!!!!!!”
The time of excruciating pain began.
