Episode 376:
The deepest part of the Abyss. The nature of Rosaria.
Taehyun was resting there.
The seven elders extracted excessive magic power, so Taehyun, who had recovered his magic power, had to open the gate of the rare managed by Vigo.
It’s because I think I’ll be hunted by other guys if I let him wander around the deepest level like that.
Erebos and Typhon, who returned to their hometown together, had just returned to their home, Terra, through the gate opened by Rosaria.
‘Is it finally quieter now?’
It was a series of dangerous battles.
The Elyos called Valkyrie of the Seven Heavens also boasted unexpected strength.
‘Igmun.’
As he revealed ‘some’ of his original power in his area, the name Lord was not lacking.
I still vividly felt the feeling when Igmun squeezed my heart.
Taehyun instinctively groped his chest.
‘If this guy was crazy enough to go up, I would have really killed him. Of course, the doppelganger wouldn’t have stayed still.’
Use now the one chance you promised to hand over your body.
There was so much chatter during the battle.
If Taehyun hadn’t shown extreme concentration, the loser of the bet might have been his doppelganger.
I exhaled from the dizzy feeling at that time and lay down on the cold floor.
Rosaria had gone to give orders to the highest-ranking servants of each castle in preparation for an unexpected attack by the archdukes.
A moment to enjoy peace.
I opened the status window.
There have been so many changes that it’s hard to tell when the status window was last opened.
‘Did all stats exceed 500 even in normal condition?’
In particular, since the magic power reached 700, there seemed to be no problem in using skills simultaneously.
‘Well, I don’t know what will happen later.’
The minimum magical power required to activate a skill is magical magical power.
Considering the need to reuse or strengthen skills during battle, the more magic power the better.
Since he cannot use potions or scrolls during a life-threatening battle, the magic stat is the most important for Taehyun, whose main skill is multi-skilling.
‘Recently, skills are often canceled.’
The racial war was at 2%, perhaps due to the encounter with Valkyrie, and the turf war had already risen to 30%.
‘Is the oath of summoning the right answer?’
As a result, it became clear that accepting the magic power of the archdukes was related to conquering the ‘Territory War’ quest.
Is that all?
Taehyun’s eyes sparkled as he checked the changed and newly registered skills.
First, the new skill ‘True Blood’ created after making a pact with Igmun.
As explained in the description of ‘forming a vampire’s magic stone in the body,’ it was a technique that had already proven effective in practice.
So far, I have imitated Igmun’s power with ‘Energy Drain’ obtained from Ricky Hallis.
Through the magic stone formed immediately after using ‘True Blood’, you will have power equal to that of Igmun’s highest-ranking descendants.
‘If used in conjunction with the Great Demon’s Heart Energy Drain…’
Blood transformation.
The highest level monster, Devlin, will be able to freely use the power he used while giving up his life.
Just thinking about it gave me a thrill.
“Are there two of them?”
In the case of Jormungand, two existing skills were changed.
The skill ‘Blood Runaway’ that Taehyun originally had.
It was just a technique created by Igmun to imitate Jormungand’s power.
Of course, that alone demonstrated sufficient power, but it was not at the same level as what Jormungand did against the Archdukes and their doppelgängers in the world of images.
This is the difference between technology and authority.
The explanation for ‘Deep Sea Runaway’ was changed from ‘Activates physical abilities’ to ‘Strengthens existence.’
He had already experienced a sufficient increase in his personal physical abilities during his fight with Igmun.
It would be known as the skill level increased whether this power also affected others.
And another ability created by Jormungand.
‘The eye of the beholder.’
‘Monster Eyes’ opened by using the power of monsters.
A skill created by changing ‘Eyes of the Highest Species’, which has now become the main skill.
“The explanation is nothing special…”
I see through the flow of magical power.
It was difficult to confirm specific performance from that description alone.
Even in battle, I didn’t feel any special difference from the ‘eyes of the highest species’ that I usually used.
“I wonder if I can use it again.”
Tiring.
[Skill Watcher’s Eye (SSS) has been activated.]
The eye power became stronger and the surrounding flow flowed slowly.
This time too, I didn’t feel much difference from the ‘eyes of the highest species’.
‘Is it simply that efficiency has improved?’
Taehyun was looking around Rosaria’s residence in that state.
[Have you ever had a hobby of spying on ladies’ secret spaces?]
I turned my head to the sudden sound of a voice.

Rosaria was just coming out of the closing gate.
at that time.
[Contractor’s eyes…!!]
Rosaria’s expression, which was joking as usual, hardened.
“eye?”
Churrup!!
Rosaria waved her tentacle.
A curtain made of purple magic appeared before my eyes.
A man who opened his red eyes and blue eyes at the same time.
Taehyun was there.
“Odd Eye…?”
[Is Jormungand like that?]
Rosaria’s expression was subtle when she asked that question.
It was different from the usual interest in obtaining the power of the Archduke.
Taehyun nodded.
[It would be difficult for even that snake bastard to pull off a prank like this…]
“What is this?”
[….]
Rosaria was lost in thought without answering.
I am thinking about the Law of the Abyss and weighing whether it would be okay to say it.
Taehyun waited quietly until she made a decision.
After a while she opened her mouth.
[contractor. Those eerie eyes are a characteristic of the Elyos.]
“…!!”
[So far, it is only the energy of a low-level Elyos… but if it is a contracted person, its power will definitely become stronger.]
The characteristic feature of the underworld monsters is their red eyes.
The characteristic feature of the Sanggye Elyos is blue eyes.
Sometimes there are guys with unusual eyes like Jormungand.
Most monsters could not escape this characteristic.
But whatever.
Aren’t the eyes only playing a functional role at best?
“Is there any reason why I shouldn’t open my blue eyes?”
Rosaria, who was pondering, opened her mouth.
[You will gradually find out when you meet Lucifer. That’s all the woman can tell me.]
“…I see.”
Taehyun didn’t ask any more questions.
It’s just as she said.
There is no need to go against the laws of the Abyss.
Anything related to heaven can be done by meeting Lucifer.
Of course before that.
‘Contracts with other archdukes come first.’
Rosaria was already able to see through Taehyun’s thoughts.
[You are definitely planning to obtain the power of Orgal and Beelzebub.]
“You are the strongest among the archdukes. “We have no choice but to prepare well.”
Orgal’s contractor Min Ji-hong and Beelzebub’s contractor Kasim Zort.
They are likely still alive.
In order to enter into an oath of summons with an archduke who has a contractor, you must sever the relationship with the contractor.
Even if the contractor wants to terminate the relationship, the option lies with the princes.
From the Archduke’s point of view, there is no reason to change the contractor once chosen.
It is not easy to find a useful person who matches your magical abilities.
‘It’s different from the time of Asisat Ebi.’
Min Ji-hong and Kassim Jort. And Cody Cruz.
There was no reason to terminate the contract with the Archduke right now.
Maybe it was just bait to get the key.
[Do you think that if you gather all of the Archduke’s power, you will win the turf war?]
That’s just a process, though.
“Nothing can’t be done.”
Taehyun did not deny it.
I’m curious about her reaction.
just as expected.
Rosaria responded immediately.
[Wrong contractor. Even if an oath of summons is made with all the princes, they will not be the last in the turf war.]
“…?”
Taehyun’s face twitched at the unexpected words.
Rosaria’s red eyes did not miss that moment.
She smiled her characteristic benevolent smile.
[I almost fell into this contractor’s trap.]
“It’s a shame.”
Contrary to what was said, there was income.
‘It’s the end of the turf war.’
As it has been until now.
Taehyun had to find out.
[For now, take care of the other guys first. You will find out when the time comes. Keep this in mind. It won’t be easy for Lucifer.]
“Of course.”
Rosaria left the room, saying she needed to rest as well.
After unlocking ‘Observer’s Eye’, I looked through the remaining skills.
In addition to the skills we looked at earlier.
Overall, magical magical power was significantly reduced.
“Lucifer… What is he doing right now?”
Thinking of Cody Cruz’s face.
Taehyun lay down on the floor again.
* * *
Guangzhou, China.
[Cody starts moving. Detected as having a gate installed inside.]
“Larger.”
Sarah Collins began the move after being contacted by the Association Players.
I followed him from Shanghai to Beijing and had just arrived in Guangzhou from Beijing.
‘As expected of you, Master.’
If it weren’t for the association’s help, tracking him would have been impossible, as his skill in erasing his presence was so outstanding.
How many times did you change gates?
The place we arrived was a large cathedral located on the outskirts of Guangzhou.
A new pseudo-religion that has started to become popular.
Using an S-class stealth scroll, she sneaked into the building while avoiding prying eyes.
And deep inside the building.
I found Cody Cruz standing in front of the medium-sized gate leading to the Abyss.
He already knows that the two suitcases in front of him are infinite backpacks.
Also, in that backpack are Lee Jeong-jae of the Taesan Guild and a demon called Black Hole.
At that time, Cody Cruz and her eyes met.
‘Did you know you were being followed?’
Considering his usual abnormal mood, there was nothing strange about it.
Ssssssut.
Sarah Collins has come out of hiding.
“Cody. “What on earth are you planning?”
“….”
Sreung.
Cody Cruz drew his sword without saying a word.
A magic grade sword obtained by killing the demon Lee Cheon-hee, the owner of this cathedral.
The leader of a pseudo-religion active in China is a new Korean.
That’s surprising too.
‘This isn’t about the grade of the weapon.’
The energy emanating from the sword imbued with magical power was unusual.
“What on earth happened?!!”
Sarah Collins instinctively used the skill.
Tiring.
[Skill Terraforming (SS) has been activated.]
Her physical abilities quickly increased after absorbing Cody Cruz’s magic.
How ridiculous the magic power is being used.
Pow.
The trained body began to explode.
Wow.
She used the ultra-fast regeneration scroll she had brought with her in advance.
Hahahahaha.
A halo of white light enveloped her body.
The duration of ultra-fast regeneration containing the power of a saint is 20 seconds.
During that time she would gain an immortal body.
But even for a moment.
Wow.
Gray magical energy bloomed from the body of Cody Cruz, who was watching quietly.
At the same time, the regeneration of the exploded body stopped.
‘It doesn’t play…?’
I didn’t let my guard down just because playback stopped.
It was just a speed that I couldn’t even perceive.
Phew.
Cody Cruz’s sword pierced her stomach.
“Why….”
“….”
No answer.
Grumbling.
Blood flowed.
The sword, which could not handle Cody Cruz’s magic power, broke and splinters flew out.
dump.
Sarah Collins, who instantly became a rag, lost her mind.
“….”
Just for a moment.
Cody Cruz, who saw the fallen woman in his eyes, crossed the gate.
* * *
The upper bound consists of 10 districts.
Among them, Odin, known as the master of the 7 heavens, was touching the newly collected runes.
Suddenly, the runes sparkled and the face of Brunhild, the commander of the Valkyrie Corps, appeared.
[Odin. The owner of the 10 heavens wants to see you.]
[10 heavens? Didn’t you say the owner changed there recently?]
[Yes. ‘Obelisk’ and ‘Osiris’ joined forces to drive out ‘Ra’. Currently, Osiris is in charge of the master’s throne.]
[It seems like it is for some reason that is not pleasant. Refuse.]
[….]
Brünnhild’s expression hardened at Odin’s cheerful command.
