Chapter 449:
Physical damage is not a big deal for monsters of the highest level or higher.
This is because, as long as you have enough energy, high-speed regeneration is possible without crashing.
It was no different from the Elyos of the Upper World.
If the person who damaged his body was not Horus, who is treated specially among the absolute beings of the 10 heavens, losing an eye would not have been a problem to Taehyun.
“Kahak…”
Taehyun clutched his eye as if it were going to be torn out by the pain that felt like a fuse in his head had blown.
I was realizing that I had not simply lost a clear eye.
‘The power of existence… is falling…’
The ‘base’ built up through regression was shaken by Horus’ single attack.
Due to the rapidly decreasing presence, the skills that were maintained began to be released one by one.
Crash. Wow.
I heard an eerie sound right in front of me.
Horus is chewing and savoring the power of existence that resides in the Blue Eye.
It’s a delicacy.
How is it that a human being can contain such enormous power of existence?
Just like the archdukes I encountered for the first time.
Horus also belatedly recognized Taehyeon’s true value and his eyes lit up.
One difference is that, unlike the princes who tried to dominate the body and mind and make it their own.
Horus is trying to permanently take away Taehyun’s other blue eye.
[I’m destined to receive God’s grace anyway.]
I can’t leave such a precious item in my care.
Greed filled Horus’ blue eyes.
[Shall we take the rest of the eyes?]
The greedy hand of the Absolute reached out to take the remaining eyes.
Taehyun pulled out his dragon slayer sword and scattered thunderbolts, but it was not a meaningful attack.
[Do not resist. [Wouldn’t the existence power be damaged?]
Horus lowered the power in case the delicacy’s existence power was damaged by the force he gave off.
[This time, we will have to find out the identity of that power of existence. Chew it again and again and digest it slowly. I’m really looking forward to that taste.]
At that time.
Kang!!!
[….]
Horus looked down at the feeling in his legs.
Tolkien was trembling while holding a sword bigger than his body.
Even though he knows that his attacks to save Taehyun are useless.
He wielded Gula’s straight sword.
[It looks like your tendons have become quite strong. You can’t handle a sword like that.]
[Let go…]
Tolkien spat out in a trembling voice.
Despite his trembling voice, the hand holding the sword was firm.
[Are you ordering God?]
Normally, I would have just cut off all the tendons due to the dwarf’s resistance.
[I feel good about the first delicacy. I will let it pass this time.]
So, I ordered him to quietly watch the god eat.
[Let go!!!]
Tolkien let out a scream-like scream and swung the straight sword once again.
Kyaang!!!
This was not just one senseless attack.
[Even if I let go!!!]
Kaaang!! Kyaang!! Wow!!
[….]
Horus looked at the dwarf who was persistently targeting his leg without any defense.
Suddenly, bulging tendons were prominent all over Tolkien’s body.
It was the appearance that Horus so desperately wanted to see, and the appearance that Tolkien so desperately wanted to hide.
You can’t believe you showed yourself like that by making such a meaningless attack.
[You’re about to get angry.]
We’re educating a dwarf who doesn’t know the subject and runs amok.
There was no need to take action.
Hwareuk. Grumbling.
Blue flames wrapped around Tolkien’s arms.
The powers of ‘Eye of the Sun’ and ‘Eye of the Moon’ are mixed.
It is a sentence of infinite pain that burns but does not burn.
I can assure you that you will be begging for your life.
However, Tolkien’s actions went beyond Horus’ thoughts.
[Ouch…. bastard…!! Get away…!! Hurry!!]
Kang!! Kang!! Kyaang!!
Even though the burning pain in my arm was repeated several times.
Even on subjects screaming in pain.

Tolkien did not stop his pointless attacks.
[…That’s unpleasant.]
The owner of this thing is you.
It’s like risking your life for someone you only saw at the auction house for less than a day.
Horus took away the divine power that had been blocked by the ‘Eye of the Moon’.
before long.
Dangling.
Gula’s straight sword fell to the floor.
This is because the divine power that acted as the ‘Eye of the Sun’ completely burned both arms.
It was entirely Horus’ will that the flames did not engulf his body.
[Please wait. [Your sins will be punished little by little.]
Each and every fully regenerated tendon and muscle will be torn apart.
Horus gave his dire warning without hesitation.
But at that moment.
Phew.
I felt a sharp pain.
[Hmm?]
It felt different from when Tolkien wielded a straight sword.
Horus checked the unpleasant thorns embedded in his skin.
At the end of the thorn was Taehyun, who lost one eye.
The body of the great evil that has not yet been completely released has scratched Horus’ skin.
[Amazing. It must be such a pain that one should be shaking.]
“It doesn’t even tickle…”
As Taehyun said that, dark red magic bloomed from his body.
Quad deuk.
A red eye regenerated from an empty wound.
[Monsters and such use ultra-fast regeneration in the upper world. There…]
Tsuzuzuzu.
Horus quietly looked at the thorn that was sucking divine power from his body.
Taehyun’s one and only blue eyes were gradually becoming brighter and darker.
It was proof that he was absorbing the absorbed divine power as his own.
[It’s enough to make me wonder what your true identity is… Are you going to become the Grand Duke of the Underworld?]
Hwareuk.
As soon as Horus grabbed the thorn, a blue flame erupted.
“…!!”
The flames spread in an instant and transferred to Taehyun’s body.
[Sun god D. This is the power of the one who was the master of the 10 heavens not long ago.]
Horus looked at Taehyeon, who was resisting the power of the sun god.
This is a guy who continues to amaze himself.
[Top quality.]
I also expected that Taehyun would use some unexpected moves.
However.
[Was it a useless feeling?]
Even though I was desperately resisting by spewing out magical energy.
The flame was just burning fiercely.
at that time.
Taehyun suddenly withdrew the magic power he had been emitting.
“…now.”
He spoke a human language unknown to Horus.
I understood it to mean resignation.
[If that is all, it would be better to eat the remaining eyes as well.] This
is the moment when Horus did not hide his disappointment and reached out for the remaining blue eyes.
Ugh!!
[…!!]
A huge maw appeared at Horus’s feet.
This is a technology that the absolute self cannot recognize?
This is when the hand that was pointing toward Cheongan stopped due to an unexpected technique.
“die.”
Kwaduk!!
A huge maw swallowed Horus.
* * *
After losing the blue eye, the regenerated red eye played the role of vision, but that was it.
I felt a sense of deprivation as my considerable existence had already been reduced, and as evidence of that, my skill level was downgraded from B to D.
Skills that could no longer be maintained began to be unlocked one by one.
If only Tolkien hadn’t drawn attention.
Therefore, if ‘Energy Drain’ had not been successful just before all skills were unlocked, the remaining Blue Eyes would have been taken away.
‘Thank you, Meister.’
Tiring.
[The grades are remeasured.]
[The grades of all skills are measured as C.]
[The grades are remeasured.]
[The grades of all skills are measured as B.] [The grades are remeasured.]
[All skills are measured again.
The skill’s grade was measured as A.]
The power of existence, which was downgraded just by directly absorbing magical power, quickly rose.
For a moment, Horus watched Taehyun’s resistance as if he was impressed.
Hwareuk.
Blue flames clinging to the thorns enveloped the entire body.
As I became A grade, the resistance to magical power became even stronger.
As if even that was ridiculous, the blue flames were warming their bodies every moment.
‘Without predation…’
we cannot win.
Taehyun gritted his teeth as he looked at the skills in the status window that were still not released.
The time limit for the quest is 1 minute.
Although he had sufficiently recovered his magic power by absorbing Horus’ divine power a little while ago.
If you can’t do anything about the flames engulfing your body, it will turn to ashes in less than 10 seconds.
Thus, it would take less than 5 seconds to extract the remaining blue eyes.
What if I go back to the underworld with everything lost?
‘There is only a future in which both turf wars and tribal wars fail.’
so.
You must not run away.
here.
‘I bet on winning.’
Tiring.
[Omen of skill evolution (A) has been activated. [Specify the target.]
Dark blue magical power seethed beneath the blue flames.
It’s not enough to extinguish the flame, but it’s the presence that Taehyun lost.
It was enough to recover some of them.
[The grades have been remeasured.]
[The grades of all skills have been measured as S.]
[The grades have been remeasured.]
[The grades of all skills have been measured as SS.]
[The unique skill ‘Predation’ can be used. [I do.]
There was no need to worry or time to hesitate.
Tiring.
[Unique skill Predation (SS) has been activated. Specifies the target.]
Ugh!!
A huge maw appeared at the feet of Horus, who stretched out his hand to pull out the Blue Eye.
This is when Horus’ movements stopped, as if surprised by an unexpected technique.
After completing the perfect siege, the maw of the predator growled.
“die.”
Kwaduk!!
A huge maw swallowed Horus.
* * *
Quad deuk. Quad deuk.
With an eerie sound, the predator opened its huge maw.
dump.
Taehyun fell down on one knee.
Cheeeeeeeek.
The blue flame went out and it was difficult to find any traces of the body that was exposed.
Due to insufficient horsepower, even ultra-fast regeneration is not possible.
Death seemed inevitable if he did not recover his magic as soon as possible.
I straightened my shaking knees and forced myself to stand up.
Then he walked shakily towards Tolkien, whose arms had evaporated.
There are still 45 seconds left on the quest.
It was necessary to stay with Tolkien until just before the quest ended, just in case.
It was when I moved about two steps.
Grumbling!!!
Suddenly, the maw of predation burst into flames.
“…!!”
Taehyun’s steps, not knowing what that meant, stopped.
RURRRRR!!!
Horus, engulfed in flames, appeared from within the jaws of the instantly annihilated Predator.
[It was an amazing feat!!]
If it weren’t for the power of the sun god, he would have given up one of his wings.
But Horus meant so when he said so.
To Taehyun, the praise just sounded absolutely terrible.
[Is there anything else left to show you?]
Before I knew it, the temperature around me had dropped.
Horus, using the ‘Eye of the Moon’, controlled the power of the sun god.
If you have any hidden talents, show them to your heart’s content.
They said that if you do that, they will love you even if you gouge out their eyes.
[If not, the other eye will be plucked out and used as an experiment for the heavenly world.]
Horus’ hand was aimed at Taehyun.
Tiring.
[‘Great power’ restrains movement.]
[‘Great will’ infiltrates.]
[Quest in progress is paused.]
‘What…!!’
I was surprised for a moment by the unexpected message.
[Can I help you?]
An existence I had forgotten about for a while.
The doppelganger’s voice rang in my head.
Image world.
The victory I achieved from him by summoning the great dukes of the past.
And he whispered to me to use now the debt I owed myself for not having used it yet.
Then.
[I will chew on the bird in front of you again and again.]
‘If you are thinking of betraying me…’
[Don’t worry.]
Isn’t the contract of desire connecting them?
The doppelganger whispered sweetly.
“….”
The worries didn’t last long.
After a while.
Tiring.
[‘Mysterious power’ awakens.]
With the message that came to mind, Taehyun’s eyes turned red.
