Episode 128
Kugugugugugung.
The skill ‘Monarch’s Passion’ was activated, and a huge force crushed Kentamion.
There didn’t seem to be any significant damage.
Taehyun stopped wasting his time and focused his magic.

Kwasik. Kwazijic.
Centamion’s feet began to sink into the ground.
It was the first time I felt gravity since the dungeon broke.
“Taehyun Kim. A player of the new Korea.”
Centamion withstood the crushing magical power and opened his mouth.
It was clearly new Korean.
‘This guy. Are you learning as expected?’
Kentamion is not an ordinary monster.
Quite a few SS-rank monsters that were known in my past life.
They all had powers beyond common sense.
It was the same with Centagenas.
A strategy that is hard to believe came from the mind of a monster.
He understood the human race through cannibalism.
Unlike the Abyss, a world of the fittest.
society. law. law. culture.
It is understood that various things come together to form humans.
That was why, unlike a monster, he used the hostage method.
That method worked exactly. It succeeded in weakening Japan’s power.
And Centamion.
Another monster created by Centazenas using some kind of method.
It ate Centazenas, it ate monsters, and it ate even more humans.
An SS+ grade monster with human intelligence.
From the player’s point of view, he was a growing awakened person.
It was a growth-type monster that Taehyun had encountered for the first time.
‘It would be dangerous to grow further here.’
Taehyun increased the magic power injected into his skills.

Coo coo coo coo coo.
Even though I adjusted the range, the surrounding atmosphere trembled.
yet.

Crack. Quad deuk.
A crater formed around where Taehyun and Kentamion were standing.
The ground fell due to a huge force.
‘After all, this isn’t enough.’
It is better not to use the power of predation until the very end.
Especially in places where people’s attention is focused like now.
This is the moment when Taehyun is about to use his next skill.
Kentamion’s body moved first.
Four huge legs.
Two of the front feet kicked Taehyun.
Quang.
“… … !!”
It had a different power than the fist that was easily blocked.
Taehyun was blown away by the tremendous force.
I used ‘Shadow Skin’ and guarded with Reddick.
Still, I felt quite a shock.
Kwaaang.
Taehyun, who was stuck at the edge of the crater, quickly pulled himself out.
Kentamion’s two legs were stuck in that spot.
Quang. Quang. Kwaaang.
The guy pushed me without stopping.
Taehyun, whose whole body was covered with magical power, stepped back and was in a hurry to avoid it.
‘It’s fast… strong.’
The overall stat difference is at least 70. No, it looks like 100.
Strength, stamina, horsepower.
Taehyun’s physical ability, which has reached national power level in three areas, is overwhelming.
Nevertheless.
‘Can you follow with your eyes?’
Before I had time to organize my thoughts, Centamion approached.
Taehyun disappeared once again due to the effect of ‘Shadow Skin’.
However, Kentamion was following Taehyun’s movements without difficulty.

The enemy’s eyes are completely aware of the hiding effect.
“It’s a gift.”
It was a perfect human language.
He stamped his foot as if he was annoyed.
Quang.
Taehyun avoided the kick by a narrow margin.
‘see.’
It felt like I was predicting the future 0.5 seconds in advance.
Taehyun avoided the guy’s hooves by a narrow margin.
Quang.
Centamion’s foot landed on the spot where Taehyun was a moment ago.
There was a loud noise as if an explosion had occurred.
Taehyun wasn’t going to miss that opportunity.
I swung Reddick while avoiding the flying rocks in the aftermath of the explosion.
Kakang. Kaga River. Kagagagagang.
It wasn’t the sound I expected.
‘hard.’
Taehyun took a step back.
Despite its status as a unique item, there was nothing on Kentamion’s body that could be considered fatal.
There were only a few scratches.
‘I guess it’s impossible as it is now.’
From the beginning, his entire body was surrounded by the magical power of predation to supplement his insufficient physical abilities.
That is why Reddick, unlike the midnight sun, is still holding on.
But that was the limit.
Just like the ghost sword and the saint, Taehyun’s attack does not cause any significant damage.
‘The physical abilities are too different.’
The monster’s abilities are not much different from the player’s.
In that respect.
muscular strength. health. speed.
None of it could reach him.
Even so, this attack and defense would not have been possible if it had not been for the magical powers that transcended common sense and the man’s movements.
‘It’s just that there is no dragon fear… .’
It felt like I was dealing with Kaiselin.
‘It’s worth driving Japan to the brink of destruction. Is the hiding effect no longer meaningful? .’
Taehyun has lifted his hiding status.
Once activated, the fusion skill could be turned on or off depending on Taehyun’s will.
This was also a skill acquired as skill proficiency increased.
“Pfft. “Tsk.”
Centamion imitated human laughter.
When he saw the information sleeping in the brains of the humans he preyed on.
The person in front of me, Kim Tae-hyun, was by no means a weak opponent.
Nevertheless.
“It’s such an appetizing energy.”
In front of the new king of the Kentas, he was just nutritious food.
Centamion stretched out his hand.
As if gravitational force worked.
Wow.
The halberd Centazenas was using was sucked into his hand.
Kugugugugugung.
A burst of magical power flowed through the halberd.
Likewise, Taehyun focused his dark red magic on Reddick.
Even the power of predation surrounding his body was turned to Reddick.
Tiring.
[Converts the form of the unique skill Predation (AA). Magic power consumption accelerates.]
Centamion’s red eyes slightly wavered.
He opened his mouth as he looked at Taehyun’s activated red eyes.
“Taehyun Kim. “What are those eyes?”
human language.
[Why are you using the power of a ‘higher species’?]
The language of monsters.
The two languages were mixed up.
Smirk.
Kentamion raised the corners of his mouth.
It is imitating the facial expressions that humans make when provoked.
“That’s interesting.”
“I’m not having fun.”
My whole body tingled with the activated energy.
I felt an even more intimidating feeling from the guy holding the halberd than before.
Centamion closed the distance in an instant and swung his halberd.
It was different from fists or feet.
The movement is visible, and it is just an extremely clean and simple movement.
Nevertheless, Halberd’s reach made a significant difference compared to before, and Taehyun, who was unable to avoid it, had no choice but to counterattack with Reddick.
Whoa!!!
Taehyun’s body was thrown backwards with a loud noise.
Kwaaang.
‘I’m in a lot of trouble today.’
Even without looking, I could tell that the Reddick in my hand was broken.
He immediately got up and threw away Reddick’s handle that had been drained of magic.
Kyaang.
Kentamion lightly dismissed it as if it was no big deal.
Taehyun once again used the ‘Monarch’s spirit’.
Kugugugugugung.
Kentamion stopped tall in front of Taehyun.
He looked like he had gained new insight.
“In the world of humans, kneeling has the meaning of submission.”
“… … ?”
Taehyun looked like he was talking nonsense.
Centamion was busy showing off his newfound knowledge.
“okay. That’s what I meant. “So you were trying to bring me to my knees.”
Kentamion took a step towards Taehyun.
“How dare you try to make me submit? Taehyun Kim?”
“… … .”
“Kneel. “You insect named human.”
Kugugugugugung.
“… … !!”
A pressure similar to that of ‘the spirit of a monarch’ exploded.
Sensation as if the whole body is being crushed.
Kentamion looked down at Taehyun with an arrogant expression.
It looked familiar.
The attitude of the strong facing the weak.
A monster that imitates humans.
It was unreasonable.
‘Not yet.’
There was no sign of Ayoung, who had taken the saint.
I had to buy a little more time.
Taehyun strengthened his ‘Shadow Skin’ and took a stance for the next attack.
An ancient Chinese martial art that has now become somewhat familiar.
Type 3 Cheokgyeong.
Quang.
Type 4 Sungyeong.
Kwaaang.
Grumbling.
Blood flowed from the attacking fist.
Still, it doesn’t stop.
Type 5 penetroscope.
Quang.
Type 6 Shin Hwa-gyeong.
Kwaaaang.
There is no movement.
Taehyun widened the distance again.
Centamion tilted his head.
“Is this a martial art? “What’s the next attack?”
“… … .”
“If not.”
Jerk. Jerk. Jerk. Jerk.
As the four legs approached, Taehyun took a small step back.
“Let’s stop eating now.”
Centamion opened his mouth with a predator’s gaze.
I saw teeth sticking out like blades.
It even bit off the body of the SS-class monster Centazenas.
It was not difficult to see that ‘shadow skin’ would not be able to defend against it.
at that time.
“Kim Taehyun!!!”
A voice waiting for me above the crater was heard.
“I’m ready!!!”
at the same time.
Blah blah blah blah.
A huge ice barrier formed around the crater.
It was ‘Ice Age’ that Ayoung used with all her might.
The temperature in the area dropped instantly.
Only then did Taehyun’s backward steps stop.
“Eat me?”
Taehyun shook his head with a bitter laugh.
It was a different atmosphere from before.
“What is it? “Those eyes.”
Centamion’s red eyes stared into Taehyun’s eyes, which had turned as red as his own.
What he noticed wasn’t the color of the eyes.
Something has changed.
The arrogance in your eyes.
It was a look that only a predator like himself could have, not a prey.
Dark red magical energy bloomed from Taehyun’s body.
“Wrong. “Centamion.”
Unlike before, Taehyun’s steps were forward.
Centamion is not a being that can be dealt with while using power appropriately as before.
You have to use all your strength to deal with him.
Nevertheless, the reason I didn’t give my best from the beginning was because of the people watching.
In order to catch Centamion in that line of sight, I stuck to close combat and lost the unique item Reddick.
It’s a considerable loss.
On the contrary, it was only possible to create a stage like this with just one unique item.
It was a loss that brought more benefits than losses.
Taehyun giggled.
“… … ?”
Kentamion looked down at Taehyun as if he couldn’t understand him.
I was able to be sure of this from the workshop a little while ago.
The person named Taehyun Kim is strong.
Not only in the category of humans.
Even among the monsters he knows, there are not many who can deal with Taehyun Kim.
But it ends there in the end.
Centagenas, king of the centaurs.
Centamion, which he strengthened with the help of the Demon Beast King Orgal.
Although it was only a part of it, the power of the Archduke was mixed.
Humans are laughing in front of such a being.
And that too with an expression as if there was prey right in front of you.
The word unpleasant came to mind.
That discomfort reached its peak due to Taehyun’s provocation.
“You are the one being eaten.”
Tiring.
[Skill Lord’s World (AA) has been activated. Specify the target. Magic power consumption accelerates.]
In a wall of ice.
A quiet darkness fell.
