Part 2 Episode 42
Ocean Currents. Dream demon tribe. Demon tribe. Demon beast tribe.
The next thing we met was, as Taehyun expected, a vampire.
“It’s been a while since I’ve been here.”
Taehyun muttered as he looked at the huge temple built in front of him.
Temple of Blood.
It was a building symbolizing Igmun’s territory.
“You talk as if you’ve been there before.”
“Pandora’s box.”
Taehyun said indifferently.
“Yeah… I wasn’t expecting it either. “What should I be careful about?”
The ghost sword, now accustomed to such an attitude, asked calmly.
Their actions are the same as elsewhere.
Grow by taking away as much magical energy as possible through energy drain.
However, the opponent is a vampire who is more optimized than anyone else for the power of absorption.
I asked because I thought the hunting method should be different from before.
“Same. After neutralizing it as much as possible, fill it with magic stones.”
“….”
“I recommend sucking it all up without leaving any magic power left for regeneration. “They are tougher than you think.”
Taehyun clicked his tongue and said.
This is because I am reminded of Igmun’s tough vitality.
“Please take note.”
Taehyeon and Ghost Sword, standing tall in front of the temple, opened their magic.
This was to make thorough preparations before entering the opponent’s territory.
Taehyun’s dark red magic power and Shinji’s magic power, which was now starting to turn blood red, flowed around them.
The temple has an open castle-like structure.
The size in front of you would not be strange even if there were about 100 vampires gathered there.
“I am in charge of the highest rank. “If you feel like it’s going to be too much for you, it’s okay to retreat.”
“You’re saying things you don’t mean. “Let’s go in.”
Even before the ghost sword took a step.
“I don’t think you need to go in.”
Taehyun smiled at the excitement rising from the temple.
and.
Kyaang!!
The swung dragon slayer sword struck out the blood spear.
Vampires began to come out one by one from the entrance of the temple.
A higher species of about twenty. And one top species.
‘The rest are small pieces.’
There are about 30 of them whose status is significantly lower than that of the higher-ranking species.
It was not a bad amount of power for two people to wield.
[It’s you. A guy who pretends to be a contractor for Road.]
A guy with the spirit of the highest class stepped forward, his teeth flashing.
“How is Igmun?”
[….]
Taehyun asked the question indifferently, but from the perspective of his subordinates, it was no such insult.
[How dare you….]
“It’s done. Let’s begin.”
Fifth form of ancient Chinese martial arts. Penetroscope.
bang.
Taehyun’s new model, which had stepped forward, rushed towards the top species.
* * *
A melee unfolded differently than expected.
This is because the ghost sword had a hard time dealing with a higher-ranking vampire species that had similar characteristics to himself, and Taehyun had to help him whenever he could.
Absorption and absorption.
Rebirth and destruction were repeated.
During the battle that lasted over 20 minutes, Taehyun learned that the name of the highest species was Tuhel and that this temple was the tenth of Igmun’s hundred temples.
“That guy Igmun. “Your power is stronger than you think?”
Considering that there is at least one top-tier species in each temple, it is by no means at the level of being considered low-ranking among the great kings.
“is not it?”
Tsuzuzuzu-.
Taehyun asked, twisting the dragon slayer sword that had been thrust into Tuchel.
The magic power that escaped through the dragon slayer sword flowed into the ghost sword.
Except for the top class Twenty and the top class Tuchel, all of them were killed by Shinji’s sword.
As Shinji’s energy became stronger, Taehyun’s energy also became stronger.
Contrary to the exaltation the two felt, the faces of Sang Sang-jong and Tuchel, who had been suppressed, were drying out.
[The wrath of the Lord….]
“Shinji. Try absorbing it a little harder. “This guy is still lively.”
“I’m trying.”

The spirit of the ghost sword that was concentrating in the lotus position became even stronger.
At the same time, the moans coming out of Tuchel’s mouth became more intense.
‘boy. I’m very used to it.’
Although it is not a proper power and its application power is low, it has a strange presence no matter when it accepts Igmun’s power.
At this rate, it was only a matter of time before he faced the top species on his own.
at that time.
[Kim…Tae…Hyeon….]
The voice was like a curse.
The murderous spirit bloomed in Tuchel’s dying enemy.
“Do you still have this much strength left? Shinji, work hard….”
Before Taehyun could finish his sentence.
[I found it….]
“…!!”
Taehyun, sensing something strange, pulls back.
Fuhuaak.
It was at the same time that Tuchel’s body exploded and blood splattered everywhere.
“What is this…”
The ghost who had relaxed from his lotus position stood up.
If Taehyun hadn’t cut off the connection with Tuchel a little while ago, he would have been stuck in the backwater.
The higher-ranking species that touched Tuchel’s blood began to scream.
These guys have already lost most of their magic power and are having a hard time controlling their bodies.
Their bodies began to swell.
at the same time.
Puff puff puff.
Fuhuaak.
The bodies of the higher-ranking species exploded and blood splattered.
‘Blood explosion?’
Igmun’s technique of exploding the opponent’s blood inside the body.
Taehyun spread his magic.
This is to detect Igmun through the blood-red fog that obscures vision.
It wasn’t Igmun who was caught.
It was also not a single entity.
Wow.
The wind blew and the blood fog cleared.
From the temple, warriors in familiar attire were walking.
Masked person.
A man who appeared to be the leader among them pointed his sword at Taehyeon.
“I command this in the name of the Blood Demon Church.”
sssss-.
Holy power bloomed from his sword.
and.
“Kill the predators of the three thousand worlds.”
Twenty masked men rushed at Taehyeon.
* * *
Kaaang. Kyaang. Gang.
The sound of swords clashing rang out.
It was the sound made by Taehyeon’s dragon slayer sword and the white night of the ghost sword clashing with the blades of the martial arts people.
The ghost sword is only dealing with five people.
Still, I was overwhelmed.
Quang.
Taehyun kicked the guy who was aiming at his back and swung his dragon slayer sharply.
Suddenly.
Hana’s masked head rolled on the floor as the length of the dragon slayer was extended using magical power.
“It’s too sudden.”
Taehyun said that and spread the distance between them.
Shinji, who retreated just in time, was touched by his back.
Nineteen masked people surrounded him and pointed their swords.
“Kim Tae-hyun… these guys’ movements are strange.”
“I know.”
The power of each individual cannot be compared to the Tuchel they faced just moments ago.
If you hit it well, it’s a top grade.
However, the movement is so strange that it is impossible to win the game quickly.
“I think I know you. “What are you going to say this time?”
Shinji, who was facing his back, swallowed and asked.
This is because they recognized that they were facing a crisis for the first time since entering the 4th floor.
“I don’t know either.”
Taehyun said as he watched the blood demon cultists gradually closing the distance.
‘I never would have thought that Igmun was related to the Blood Demon Church.’
What if Igmun is a blood demon and the avatar of a constellation?
My head gets confused.
“Hey leader. “Why is Ig-moon suddenly cosplaying as a martial artist?”
To Taehyun’s question.
“There is no need to play with three inches of tongue. There is no need to capture him alive. Kill the predator.”
The leader answered in a cold voice.
The distance between the masked people had narrowed to the point where they could extend their arms and touch their swords.
gulp.
The sound of the ghost swallowing dry saliva is unusually loud.
It seemed unreasonable to hope for the same luck as on the first floor.
“This is too much. “Still, we were called comrades in arms.”
“Hit!!”
The moment the blade touches again.
Kiiii-.
Kiiiii-.
The two magic stones vomited out the condensed mana.
Hahahahaha.
In the blink of an eye, a huge magical power enveloped the area.
The masked leader looked around at the suddenly changed environment.
It was clearly a situation where they were surrounded, but Taehyun and Shinji were far away.
“Right. “Is this a personal space?”
The leader calmly grasped the current situation.
“It seems like the power of the dream demon has been restored in a moment.”
He looked at his men and nodded.
“Expand the realm of blood.”
Blood-red magic bloomed from the bodies of the nineteen masked people, including the leader.
Tsuzzzzzzzz-.
Realm of blood.
The area symbolizing Igmun developed rapidly.
“Igmun, you bastard. “I lost my original intention.”
The guy who once aimed to become the King of the Underworld joined hands with a constellation from another universe.
Taehyun cursed and looked at the completely expanded area.
I was certain that the moment I entered the realm of blood, all the magic I had accumulated would be taken away.
“It’s funny that you even say that.”
A sword swung behind Taehyun.
at the same time.
Ugh.
A mouth pops out in the air.
Crack.
Biting into the bloody area.
Although it was only for a moment, it was a moment when I thought a crack had appeared in the realm of blood.
Phew.
“Ugh…”
The midnight sun flew by in the blink of an eye and pierced Hana’s masked body.
Quad deuk. Crack.
The maw derived from the midnight sun swallowed the masked man.
One person was taken care of in the blink of an eye.
“Dopple. It is dangerous to eat it so recklessly. “It will be difficult if you get a penalty later.”
“If you were going to deal with me in such a petty way, you shouldn’t have come in here.”
Smirk.
As if Taehyun’s situation was none of his business, the doppelganger rushed into the area of blood.
The Byakuya that flew into the guy’s hand and was caught was creating a new jaw.
A new masked person was swallowed up by the activities of the doppelganger who infiltrated the enemy lines on his own.
The masked people who gave up their territory of blood dispersed.
“Are you a doppelganger of a predator?”
“It’s not nice to hear that from those bastards.”
The doppelganger said so and swung the midnight sun.
Ugh.
The moment when the maw protrudes from the cracked air and is about to devour the leader.
bang!!
The leader’s sword deflected the predator.
“Hoo.”
The doppelganger touched his chin in admiration.
As the level of the ghost sword increases, the power it can use also expands considerably.
However, I never thought that predation could be abolished in this way.
The doppelganger wielded the midnight sun once again.
bang!!
The leader’s sword deflected the predator again.
This time, he even showed a feat of splitting the thrown predator in half.
“You look at me so disrespectfully. “Don’t think of me as being on the same level as that idiot.”
A blood sword was created in the hand of the leader who said so.
Sigh.
A huge pillar rose up around the blood sword stuck in the ground.
‘Blood Cross.’
That was also one of Igmun’s skills.
Taehyun opened his red eyes and watched the battle between the doppelganger and the leader.
‘Is the base of strength holy power and magical power?’
At first glance, you can use holy power, but that’s only when moving or delivering a blow.
From some point on, I have been using only Igmun’s magic power.
The power was greater than expected, enough to repel the doppelganger’s predation.
“I thought you were supposed to be a grand duke… but it’s been a while since you brought in some interesting guys.”
The doppelganger burst out laughing.
“Dopple, don’t let your guard down.”
Taehyun raised his dragon slayer sword and stood next to him.
The magic power condensing in the leader’s sword is becoming stronger.
just as expected.
Cheoeok.
The moment the leader’s blood sword was aimed at Taehyun.
Tsuzuzu- Tsuzuzuzu- Tsuzuzuzu-.
Numerous blood swords began to fall from the red sky.
It was like watching Igmun’s decisive battle.
‘I think this can just be called Igmun.’
This is when Taehyun was thinking such a ridiculous thought.
“Get out of the way, Taehyun Kim.”
The doppelganger is one step away.
I walked in front of Taehyun.
