Episode 375:
I was confident that I would destroy Jormungand no matter what conditions he put forward.
Attitude toward turf wars.
An attitude referring to the King of the Underworld.
Why do you want to get the key?
If you just figure out these three things.
This is because the actions that arrogant princes may take can be predicted to some extent.
Of course, the fact that the Elyos of the Upper World were consumed in this bet was enough to catch one off guard.
As a result, he also managed to capture Taehyun.
The problem is next.
The posture that the princes who lost the bet will take after the oath of summons.
Hunting the Archduke in the Archduke’s territory.
Originally, it was something that was close to impossible. It wasn’t that I wasn’t confident.
If you are who you are now.
If you unlock your power and use your power with all your might.
By helping Rosaria and Typhon, we will be able to suppress at least one archduke.
Even if it was impossible, there were a few more cards prepared.
A representative example is summoning Hazard.
Unlike Rosaria, who is evaluated as the weakest, and Typhon, who was downgraded, Hazzard is an archduke who competes for the top rank with Lucifer.
Dealing with three archdukes.
The opponent will have no choice but to prepare for extinction.
However, in all cases, a certain amount of risk is involved.
‘It is highly likely that Hazard will not show the same level of cooperation as Rosaria and Typhon.’
Just because you signed an oath of summons doesn’t mean you have to give in to all of each other’s demands.
If you even attack Rosaria and Typhon, everything will go wrong.
The same goes for using doppelgängers and summoning other archdukes.
That was why Taehyun intervened in the battlefield where Rosaria and Typhon were holding out.
A ‘demon beast’ that possesses the power of Orgal.
‘True Blood’ possesses the power of Igmun.
‘Devil’s Saliva’ that possesses the power of Beelzebub.
‘Deep Sea Runaway’ that possesses the power of Jormungand.
A ‘root element’ that possesses the power of Typhon.
‘Dragon’s Fury’ possesses the power of Hazard.
Taehyeon can use each of the great powers.
It was concentrated in the body and used explosively.
And finally.
Tiring.
[Skill Ataraxia (SSS) has been strengthened. Magic power consumption accelerates.]
The purple magic power radiated from the body enveloped Igmun even more strongly.
“I’ll ask again.”
Who is your master?
Ugh.
The predatory maw bared its teeth at the feet of Igmun, who had stopped moving.
Kwaduk!!
The teeth closed and Igmun moved his body at the same time.
Igmun grimaced as he looked at the predatory maw chewing on his blood sword and swallowing it.
on the other way.
[Puhhahahaha.]
Typhon burst out laughing.
[Contractor… This power….]
Rosaria was speechless as she saw the magic power of the Archdukes mixed in Taehyun’s body.
She served the king more closely than anyone else.
What you see now is one of the techniques the king showed to rule over the princes.
Power concentration.
Although it is imperfect, Taehyun is imitating the technique.
That too instinctively.
[You’re becoming more and more of a monster.]
Typhon said, chuckling.
It’s not wrong.
Because their contractor was, at least temporarily, above his class.
[Of course, I still have to help.]
Kaang.
Rosaria struck down the blood sword aimed at Taehyun.
[Sigh… Sigh….]
Igmun, who had shaken off Ataraxia, let out a deep breath.
Is your breathing disturbed?
[This… crazy…]
Igmun swallowed his curse.

This is something difficult to believe or admit.
Consciousness was lost only briefly.
For that moment.
The Grand Duke himself.
The body itself.
You were just defeated by the power of a key or something?
Rosaria, who was not unaware of that fact, burst into laughter.
[Ahahahaha. It looks good, Igumoon!!]
[Khahahahaha. I love you, Rosaria.]
[….]
Tsk.
Igmun, thinking he was being ridiculed, spat.
The blood that flowed from all over the Blood Field coagulated and formed the shape of a cross.
Thousands of blood swords began to bombard.
[You are doing a dirty trick!!]
Typhon shouted and unleashed his powers.
Fire and ice formed a lump and exploded.
The earth turned upside down, and thunderstorms and typhoons exploded against the blood sword.
It was literally like watching disaster collide with disaster.
Kyaang!!
Taehyun narrowed the distance and crossed swords with Igmun.
Crack.
The dragon slayer sword was surrounded by the magical power of predation.
Every time the swords met, the maw of prey gnawed at the blood sword.
Fragments of Rosaria’s tentacles splashed onto the bloody cross that fell from the sky.
Tsuzzzzzzzzzz.
Blood Field.
Once again, the enormous power unfolded around Igmun.
‘Apocalypse’ was instantly absorbed by the blood-red magic.
Taehyun and Igmun.
A huge barrier was created to trap just the two of them.
[Contractor!!]
Ignoring Rosaria’s cries.
Once again, my entire body was surrounded by magical energy.
In front of Igmun’s power, Yongrin Gap, Stone Skin, and all other methods of strengthening the body are useless.
Without backing down.
‘Fight against it.’
I’m sorry.
The dragon slayer sword that spewed thunderbolts was thrust into Igmun’s chest.
yet again.
“Look into my eyes, Igmun.”
Tsuzzzzzzzz.
Purple magical power scattered and ‘Ataraxia’ was used.
suddenness.
Wow!!
A thorn sticking out from somewhere passed through my eyes.
“…!!”
[Did you think that kind of trick would work again!!]
Pupupupupuk.
Five blood swords were lodged in Taehyeon’s limbs.
Cheeeeeee.
Five nails pierced Yongrin Gap and lodged themselves in his chest.
Kwasik!!
In his hand, the magic crystal created from the ‘Heart of the Great Devil’ shattered into pieces.
Whoops.
Taehyun vomited blood.
bang. bang. bang. bang.
Outside, Rosaria’s tentacles and Typhon’s fist were hitting the barrier.
The barrier only shakes and does not cause any significant damage.
Time seemed to pass slowly.
Igmun used his power ‘Absorption’.
Tsuzzzzzzzz.
All kinds of magical energy was sucked out of Taehyun’s body.
“Kak….”
Tiring.
[Skill True Blood (SSS) has been strengthened. Magic consumption is accelerated.]
Kiiiii –
A heart made with Igmun’s power.
I started to suck back in the magic power that was leaving my body.
Suddenly, the maw of predation surrounded the two beings.
Ig-moon glared at Tae-hyeon’s red eyes.
Even though I lost my eyesight.
Even though I obviously can’t even see myself properly.
I didn’t give up.
Even high-speed playback does not work properly.
I haven’t broken my heart yet.
Actions that he had not been able to do in the past overlapped.
That’s why even more so.
I felt nauseous.
[With a clumsy imitation!! Did you think you could eat the original ghost!!]
Kwajik.
Igumoon held Taehyun’s other heart in his hand.
A heart made of blood-red magic.
If only this is extracted, the power of absorption cannot be used.
And if you pull out the last heart.
Kim Tae-hyun will face death without any further resistance.
He will protect his pride, though.
The key arranged by the King of the Underworld will be shattered, and the Underworld will be defeated in the future racial war with the Upper World.
Quickly.
Igmun gritted his teeth.
That’s not possible.
Above all, Taehyun Kim is now his own contractor.
If you take care of him here, you won’t be able to block the attacks of Rosaria and Typhon behind you due to the risk.
No matter how you prevent it.
We will bow down to the power of Jormungand that will come later.
[He… did he see this far?…]
Kick… Kick…
Taehyun let out a bitter laugh, blood foaming at the mouth.
Kwaduk!!
The predatory maw, which had been waiting for an opportunity all along, tore off Igmun’s hand and bit it.
Into that vicious maw.
He hesitated.
Igmun stepped back.
[….]
Igmun looked at his hand, which was no longer regenerating.
I looked at my completely disfigured body.
When on earth did I end up in such a corner?
Tsuzzzzzz.
I produced a blood sword in my only remaining hand.
But the battle was won.
In the end, the result was no different from defeat.
Wow.
Igmun’s hand holding the blood sword trembled.
That too for a while.
Wedge.
I swung my blood sword at the Valkyries who were fighting with my descendants from afar.
Tsuzzzzzzzzzz.
The moment when a puddle of blood appears at their feet.
Phew. Phew.
A huge thorn pierced the hearts of the two Valkyries.
[…!!]
[…!!]
Gunne and Eir.
The two Valkyries vomited blood with disbelieving expressions.
The brilliant brilliance was sucked into the thorns of blood.
Soon, the five highest species tore the bodies of the two Valkyries apart.
[Damn Kim Tae-hyun. Be polite when summoning.]
With that, I conclude.
Ssssss.
After lifting the barrier, Igmun’s body dissolved in blood and disappeared.
The five top species followed suit.
dump.
Taehyun collapsed in a puddle of blood.
Rosaria and Typhon, who arrived late, made a fuss.
[Is the contractor okay!!]
Rosaria asked, groping her body here and there.
“I feel like my whole body is going to break.”
Taehyun didn’t show off this time and accepted it obediently.
Rosaria’s tentacles stroked my head.
[He has truly become a great man.]
Purple magical power dwelled in his empty body.
That look.
[Chuckling.]
Typhon could only look at him with jealous eyes.
* * *
The deepest part of the Abyss.
Yonggung Palace located in the middle of the Horse Sea.
Jormungand was watching what was happening in the Temple of Blood through the gate.
[I wonder if he can grow to this extent.]
A look of admiration flashed across Jormungandr’s face.
Kim Tae-hyun, the key chosen by the King of Hagye.
Originally, mind and body by now.
It was a time when it would not be strange for one of the two to collapse.
Nevertheless, there was no sign of that when dealing with Igmun.
He is in complete control of the power of the Archduke he has obtained.
It is understandable that he dominates the power of other archdukes.
but.
[I will try to control the power of the throne.]
Kick, kick, kick.
Jormungand let out a mean laugh.
It’s not because it feels good.
Rather, everything went as planned.
It wasn’t a situation I liked because I like to be in control.
His eyes focused again on the situation illuminated by the gate.
Let’s take a moment to break Kim Tae-hyun’s heart.
Igmun was admitting defeat and retreating.
[Stupid vampire.]
Jormungand criticized Igmun for failing to show his pride until the end.
By admitting defeat, the top class fifty he had prepared became useless.
[Tsk. I just need to satisfy my greed as I always do.]
Jormungand’s plan was just as Igmun had expected.
The plan was to attack the Temple of Blood using the gate as soon as Rosaria and Typhon disappeared.
[What would you do?]
Jormungand’s highest class.
Among them, the one in command of the corps commander asked.
[Disbanded.]
[Understood.]
He delivered the order to the 49 members who were waiting.
In an instant, they all dispersed to their respective areas.
[It’s the oath of summoning.]
Jormungand muttered as he felt the dark blue magic implanted in his body.
The power desire of the ancient archdemon Gorpher.
It is a spell created with that power.
It even perfectly imitates the power of the great devil.
It would not be surprising if Kim Tae-hyun’s growth using the Underworld King’s power ‘predation’ had already surpassed that of Asmodeus.
No, there is no telling what kind of power Asmodeus, who disappeared from his sight, may have acquired.
[Hmm…]
He, who likes to weigh pros and cons, thought about what he had gained from this battle.
The magic power of runaway was naturally implanted in Kim Tae-hyeon’s body, and Igmun’s power was also greatly weakened.
Odin’s actions after losing three of his highest ranking members were also expected.
Who will be the one to swallow the key in the end?
[There is no need to rush.]
No matter what the process is.
Taehyun Kim will find out.
How strange is the fate of accepting the power of the key.
[I look forward to seeing how they will accept this curse-like bondage.]
