Episode 455
“I heard you’re preparing something?”
Tolkien, who had been laughing for a while at Taehyun’s words, cleared his throat.
With a solemn expression, he stretched out his hand in the air.
Hwiiii.
He heard a strange sound, and then a familiar sword flew from far away and was caught in Tolkien’s hand.
The blue sword body and the dragon’s red eyes embedded in the handle.
It was a dragon slayer sword.
‘Did they leave it in your care when you lost consciousness?’
Taehyun accepted the sword handed to him by Tolkien.
however.
“Something… a little different?”
The overall shape remains unchanged.
Of course, the momentum emanating from Bordeaux’s enemy has increased.
Just holding the sword made me feel like the magic power in my body was stirring.
[Hmm. I would also like to confirm that my tendons and presence have returned. I took care of my brother while he was recovering. Let’s try the magic power.]
‘Has it been remodeled?’
This is a weapon that has been given legendary status since it was manufactured by Alchemist.
By assimilating with the divine beast, its durability has become stronger, and it even has the ability to self-regenerate, giving it permanent durability.
‘The touch of a meister was added here.’
Taehyun obediently unleashed dark red magic power.
Normally, that alone activates the ‘root element’ and increases physical abilities.
Tiring.
[‘Great power’ – the will of the ‘Succubus Queen’ reacts.]
[‘Great power’ – the will of the ‘Giant King’ reacts.]
[‘Great power’ – the will of the ‘Demon King’ reacts. ]
[‘Great power’ – the will of the ‘Fairy King’ reacts.]
Quaaaaaaa.
The power of my entire body surged with an unprecedented message.
It was as if I had entered a world of images that seemed to be connected to a divine beast.
‘Great power.’
The message announcing the change in status did not stop there.
[Strength increases by 50.]
[Stamina increases by 50.]
[Speed increases by 50.]
[Magic power increases by 50.]
‘Crazy.’
Taehyun’s normal stats have already exceeded 700.
If you improve your physical abilities with ‘Apocalypse’ or ‘Power of the Great Duke’, you can exceed 900 in all stats.
‘It goes up 50 more here? And that was just by flowing magical energy into the dragon slayer sword…’
It was an increase that was hard to believe even when you saw it with your own eyes.
“What the hell is this…”
[Swords made of keel bones were of great value even in ancient times. Especially at the level of a leader…!! Is it just the quality of the materials? [When I heard that my brother was a contractor for all the archdukes here, my spirit of challenge and experimentation as a meister…]
Tolkien rambled on with a satisfied look on his face at Taehyun’s reaction.
He talked non-stop, but ultimately the conclusion was that he was good.
finally.
[…I witnessed my brothers engage in a great battle with the Absolute Horus in the Upper World. I don’t doubt that if I had better weapons than back then, the outcome would have been different.] Although it was
n’t exactly something I witnessed, it was more like I was hiding and watching.
‘The last attitude was commendable.’
If Tolkien hadn’t had the courage back then.
So, I know that it would have been really dangerous if I had not stolen Horus’ attention even for a moment.
I was not put off by my constant boasting.
On the contrary, I was even proud.
“You were given a great gift from the beginning.”
He calmly expressed his gratitude and said that it was worth the risk to bring him here.
[What is gratitude between brothers? If you ever meet that damned new Horus bastard… be sure to cut off his head with this.]
“As you wish, brother.”
Tuk.
Taehyun and Tolkien clashed fists.
It was like seeing an old comrade in arms.
[What a strange tongue. Is that
god
[Puhuhuh. Tolkien. my little brother I would like to ask for my own armor as well.] As
Taehyun miniaturized the dragon slayer sword and put it away, Typhon quickly intervened.
He, too, was impressed by the enormous power contained in the weapon.
[Don’t worry. I’ve already designed a weapon suitable for my giant brother. With your strength, you can even cut through space. Is that it? If you use the power, you can even fight against many of the absolute entities of the upper world… um…?]
Tolkien, who was talking excitedly, stopped talking when he felt like he was nudging me.
The branches of the divine tree were touching my body.

The branch was connected to the Elven.
[What are you doing, fairy?]
It was different from when I dealt with Typhon.
The transformed Tolkien growled and asked.
It was a moment before the Elven lifted his lips.
The answer came from Rosaria.
[He wants me to make one for him too. It would be good if it were in a form that could be transformed using the branches of the Divine Tree…]
Even before Rosaria finished speaking.
[What does this dirty elf think of the meister!!]
Tolkien shouted and glared at the elf.
The lazy people who sang in the forest burst out in anger, saying that they were treating the great dwarf meister like a slave.
The swear words that Taehyun can’t understand are a bonus.
It took a moment for the Elven’s pure white face to turn red.
The branches of the divine tree entangled Tolkien’s small body.
Quad deuk.
[Ugh…!!]
Tolkien let out a painful breath due to the force constricting his body.
[Hmm… If you talk nonsense one more time, I will crush your small body and give it to you as nourishment for the divine beast… If you want to stay in the fairy territory, follow Bonyo’s words. Or else it will go away…]
Rosaria seemed embarrassed as she relayed the Elven’s words.
[Are you willing to give in to a fairy like this… ugh… ah…]
The power that constrained Tolkien’s resistance became stronger.
Even if you try to release it with your bulging muscles, you can’t use your strength because the divine water is absorbing your magic power.
‘If I keep doing this, I’ll catch the dwarf.’
The last meister of the clan that had been resurrected was about to disappear.
Although his strength seemed quite impressive, Tolkien was far from fighting.
This is the moment when Taehyun intervenes and tries to comfort the Elven.
[Stop…!!]
Crack. Quad deuk.
Suddenly, Typhon intervened and tore off the branch of the divine tree.
Because it had already fully recovered its ancient power, the divine beast was torn apart without even having a chance to absorb its magic power.
[What are you doing to your younger brother, Elven?]
Typhon growled and showed his anger.
[Tsk tsk. You stay out.]
Rosaria clicked her tongue and warned.
His tone was cold, as if he could swing his tentacles at any moment.
[Kek… Kek…. This… Damn elf….]
Tolkien gasped and glared at the elf.
Where is such power hidden in that small body?
The bulging tendons were unusual.
‘If I leave this alone, there will be an accident.’
Rosaria and Elven.
Typhon and Tolkien.
Gilpere is watching with a neutral attitude.
If beings with similar tendencies decide to use their power, the damage will be considerable.
I once again realized why the Grand Dukes had not been able to join forces until now.
Not suitable for such a huge power.
‘It’s childish.’
To be precise, it was able to show such a reaction because it had reached an area where it could not be considered an ordinary monster.
Anyway.
‘A stick would be the better answer than a carrot.’
Taehyun drew out his dragon slayer sword and unleashed dark red magic power.
Quaaaaaaaaa.
The group’s attention was focused on the strength that stood out even in the face of fierce fighting.
“Just do it in moderation.”
Since we are on the same boat, fighting is not allowed.
If a battle is necessary, it must be fought legally and under his control.
Otherwise, it was nailed down that you would have to pay a ‘price’.
[….]
[….]
[….]
[….]
[….]
The party, who did not know the meaning, calmed down their speculation one by one.
“Tolkien. You too must be polite to the elves. “Anyway, this is her territory.”
[Hmm… I understand. If my brother says so…]
Tolkien nodded, even though he was displeased.
Although Typhon is dependable, all the princes here follow Taehyeon.
So, he knew that he also had to follow Taehyun.
[If that lump of beard crosses the line one more time!! I will turn it into magical power and use it as fertilizer for the divine beast!!]
The Elven’s cry rang loudly in my head.
Taehyun said he would understand.
I nodded my head to show that I understood.
The atmosphere suddenly became tense.
It was Tolkien who spoke first, as if he recognized his mistake.
The intention is to change the topic.
[Is there… any problem with the brother’s status window?]
“What…?”
Taehyun asked back at the unexpected words.
I never thought the term status window would come out of the mouth of a non-player.
[The Meister’s senses are special.]
“There is no need to elaborate. Simply put.”
He cleared his throat and said he heard Taehyun talking about Sangtae Chang when he was in the upper world.
also.
[Ancient Meister. I heard that the king of the clan discussed something called the status window system with the King of the Underworld…]
“…!!”
The King of the Dwarves, the King of the Underworld, and Sang Sang-chang.
Taehyun couldn’t help but be taken aback by the unexpected connection.
Seeing that, Tolkien became even more excited and opened his mouth.
[I feel like something unusual is happening in my brother’s body right now.]
“…?”
[Great divine power. And a huge magical power that surpasses him. It may not have any effect now, but if you leave it like this, it will most likely crash and cause confusion in the status window. If my prediction is correct, it is made entirely of magical power.]
“….”
Tolkien, who wanted to show off his knowledge, continued his lengthy explanation.
To summarize briefly.
“It means that traffic control is necessary. How long does it take?”
[The status window is different from the one that deals with tangible weapons. I think the first priority is to have the stamina to continue long-term work.] He
said that it takes time to build a body worthy of a meister.
The period is about a month by Taehyun’s standards.
[In the meantime, it would be a good idea for the brothers to sort out their tangled magic. It would be difficult if I accidentally caused a runaway while I was working.]
“Okay. “I will wait here to recover.”
Just when you think that Taehyun will be held captive for the next month.
[Good. There is something we have already been discussing among ourselves.]
The Elven spoke in her head.
“What else?”
Taehyun felt the gaze of Rosaria Typhon Gilfer Elven focused on him.
The answer came from Rosaria.
[The contractor will be declared the new Grand Duke.]
A series of unexpected words.
“suddenly?”
My head felt dizzy.
* * *
“The Archduke?”
[Puhuhuh. With your skills, it is not strange to lead a force.]
[You could also say that you have reached the pinnacle of the species.]
Typhon and Gilfer said so.
“There’s no need to do that. “I’m comfortable the way it is right now.”
Taehyun said he hated troublesome work and was comfortable being alone.
It would be easy for the players if they formed a force, but there are only a handful of people on Earth who can become a force at the deepest level.
Rosaria shook her head.
[Having a name gives you power. Don’t worry. We will do the preparations.]
Having a ‘name’ gives you ‘power’.
Now that Taehyun didn’t know what those words meant, he couldn’t just push them away.
“Let’s think about it a little more.”
The next person to speak was Gilper.
[We will proclaim the ascension of Bonma and Elven to the throne and the complete resurrection of Typhon. Since the memories have probably returned to others by now, idiot… no, it wouldn’t be a bad idea to let them know of the Meister’s existence.]
“I think he’s hiding something.”
Rosaria and Gilper are people who always value balance.
But I felt like something was being rushed too much.
The person who answered the question was an Elven.
[There was one big change while the contractor was recovering.]
“…?”
[Lucifer. He moved.]
