Episode 377 Stair War (2)
A little distance away, Tarachen and the orcs of the Black Hill tribe were staring blankly at Jinhyeok’s actions.
‘Is this what they meant when they said that if we buy time, they would stab the other person in the back?’
Although he did not tell us every single detail of the operation, he said that he would prepare a secret plan to overcome it at once even if the situation turned unfavorable.
‘He really is a scary guy.’
Tarachen swallowed dry saliva.
When I first proposed this war, I wasn’t sure.
When I saw what Jinhyeok was doing right now, my doubts quickly disappeared.
That’s not a human.
It’s something covered in human skin.
And at this very moment, that devil-like monster was repeatedly lifting and putting down a religious relic.
＊＊＊
“I’m really sorry. This was 100% my mistake. Can you just take a look at it?”
“How can a person who has already committed the crime of tearing and killing someone blatantly babble such bullshit! He knows how important it is to us…!”
“Huh? Was breaking a piece of jewelry such a serious mistake that you wouldn’t accept me even if you said sorry?”
“Are you saying that?”
Sloth had a blood clot in his neck.
I can definitely say that ever since I took on the role of sloth, one of the seven deadly sins, I have never shown my emotions more intensely than I do now.
Even if you didn’t sign a contract with Gunthafer, you could feel it as an emotion.
“Really? There’s no use in apologizing, right? Then, all we have to do is burn it to the ground.”
Jinhyeok brought the ‘Flame of the Beginning’ up to the nose of the Holy Grail.
Grumble!
The fiercely burning flame looked as if it would engulf the Holy Grail at any moment.
“Wait, wait! Calm down!”
“The devil’s sacred object…!”
“We must stop the author immediately!”
Fanatics gathered around Jinhyeok Ururu.
But, it was already too late.
Because the rising flame has already reached the Holy Grail.
Kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa!
“Keeeeee!”
As if expressing the pain of being burned by fire. A terrible scream rang out from the Holy Grail.
[‘The Holy Grail of the Antichrist’ is being damaged!]
[The abilities of all residents belonging to the ‘Cult of the Dead’ are reduced by 10%!]
[Guntafer, the god of the demon world, is very angry.]
[Favorability from dark attribute gods decreases.]
Red status windows appear one after another.
The burning chalice was emitting more dazzling light than ever before.
“Everyone, right now! Turn off the lights!”
It didn’t take long for all the believers to fall into panic.
Na-tae is also embarrassed by the sudden change.
Therefore, the power of the almost invincible ‘step of negligence’ has been greatly weakened.
… … It’s now!
“Yuseong!”
“Yes, I know!”
“I’m going!”
At Jinhyuk’s signal, Cheon Yu-seong and Teresa flew in one direction.
Fast. Concisely.
The surprise attack that took advantage of the shortest distance created an effect as spectacular as its benefits.
[The unique ability ‘Sword Song’ is activated!]
[The unique ability ‘Star’s Protection’ is activated!]
Different abilities.
However, thanks to having already combined it several times, I knew how to use it to create synergy.
Cheon Yu-seong’s sword strike.
Teresa’s light seeps through.
[The ‘two souls’ of one body and one body are blooming!]
“Kaaaaak!”
“Aaaah!”
Kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa!
The bodies of more than a dozen believers were cut off with a single sword.
Indeed, it is said that it will tear apart Mount Tai.
And take advantage of the gap created by the two of you.
Jinhyuk started moving in earnest.
“You!”
Feeling a sense of crisis, Sloth activated his abilities again.
As the steps progressed, the gray fog became more dense.
However, Jinhyuk was one step faster than the ability being fully activated.
Quang!

Sloth was hit directly by Jinhyuk’s leg and rolled around on the ground.
“Keuok?”
A terrible pain shook my abdomen.
A life accustomed to always causing pain. When was the last time you felt pain?
However, this is the end of this humiliating moment.
“How dare you put your dirty feet on my body?”
petrification.
A moment ago, the ability that turned an entire orc into stone was activated.
“……My, my body?”
An earthquake occurred in Jinhyeok’s pupils.
This is because the petrification that started from the toes of my feet and turned into stone quickly spread to my calves.
“Please, no. I can’t do this.”
Jinhyuk struggled with his whole body.
“Hahaha! You idiot! If you had watched the battle carefully, you could have avoided dying in vain like this…! All of this is the price you pay for looking down on the Seven Deadly Sins.”
“I thought you were going to say…?”
Jinhyuk, who was doing all kinds of acting, suddenly burst into laughter.
[The unique ability ‘Nihilism’ is activated!]
‘Nietzsche’s unique ability that seals all abilities and skills.
The kick to the stomach just now wasn’t just for striking.
A point where magical power gathers.
In other words, the purpose was to shake the blood.
Because Nihilism’s proficiency was still insufficient, it could not completely suppress the opponent’s abilities on its own, but when used with blood, it could make up for the shortcomings.
of course.
“The petrification… broke off midway? How is that possible…?”
From Sloth’s point of view, who did not know that fact, all of this could not help but be embarrassing.
This was the first time that the ability did not activate properly.
“Shall we call it the mystery of the East…?”
Jinhyuk shrugged his shoulders.
As I learned various things about acupuncture points from my teacher, I naturally learned many things about the body.
Where should I hit to be more effective? Which acupuncture points hinder or help the flow of energy? etc.
Thanks to this, a situation was created where we could fight without worrying about ‘steps of negligence’.
‘You have to compete while your blood pressure is on.’
Normally it would take half a day, but for a monster the size of a sloth, 15 minutes would be the limit at most.
15 minutes.
That is the time to decide the outcome of this battle.
“Whoa….”
Jinhyuk caught his breath.
Originally, he was a powerful enemy that would only be encountered once he reached the upper echelons.
No matter how much they were restricted by subservience, their status was not lowered.
… … ‘Strong’.
That one word was enough to define the seven deadly sins.
then… … .
[The unique ability ‘Share all things’ is activated.]
This side, too, must be dealt with with appropriate measures.
Along with Jinhyeok’s body, memories and abilities of a colleague with whom he had a high bond came to mind.
[You have selected the ability of the ancient species ‘???(Sweet Potato).’]
Kukukukukukuku!
At that very moment, a huge wave erupted along Jinhyeok’s body.
Peer.
The power that only the Balaur could use engulfed the entire area.
Go, go, go!
A brutal pressure on the skin.
Peer acting on the mental system can make quite a few objects unable to even lift a finger.
“You’re blooming even though you’re not a dragon. What on earth are you?”
“I’m a dragon. It’s a shame. Now look, I don’t have a tail or horns.”
“Are you planning on playing with words?”
Sloth shook off Peer’s pressure and extended his staff forward.
Then, gray magic circles were created along the empty space.
The number alone easily exceeds 30.
“No matter what your race is, I can stamp it out with overwhelming force and crush it. If you thought I had only one ability, you would be greatly mistaken.”
Fuuuuuuu!
What followed was a feast of gray rain, comparable to carpet bombing.
“Kaaaa!”
“Cyo, cult leader!”
“Chwiik! Everyone, avoid it!”
“If you’re around, you’ll get caught up in it!”
A wide-area weapon that does not discriminate against enemies.
As firepower beyond imagination was concentrated, the entire temple area began to turn into a wasteland.
“That’s it!”
Even in the thick smoke, Na-tae accurately located Jin-hyuk.
This is because it was possible to track the subtle flow of magic power rather than just seeing it with the eyes.
Quaaaang! Boom, quack, quack, boom!
Gray flames exploded where Jinhyuk was.
However, Jinhyuk, who can move through space for a short distance through ‘Shadow Killing’, was also not easily hit by Sloth’s attack.
“You’re so good at running away!”
“Running away?”
It was at that time that Jinhyuk grabbed Natae’s back.
“I think you’re completely mistaken, but Shadow Killing is not an escape or evasion technique.”
It’s a skill to catch the opponent off guard at perfect timing and suffocate them.
Shadow and shadow interlocked, creating a blind spot in the visual field.
Sigh!
The dagger, which had become red-hot due to the ‘Grave of the Sword’, pierced the nape of Sloth’s neck.
A long stream of blood spurted out with an eerie cracking sound.
“Aaaah!”
However, even after receiving a fatal wound that would normally result in instant death, Sloth still moved briskly.
His unique negligence had the effect of making him avoid even death.
“It’s really tough. Should I have cut off its head instead of stabbing it?”
Jinhyuk clicked his tongue.
“Okay. Just keep taking your time.”
“I’d like to decline if it’s a loser’s complaint, but it’s so boring that it’s so boring that I’m almost falling asleep.”
“Kkkkk… No, I didn’t mean to say something like that. Just as you prepared a trump card, our great Demon King also prepared several countermeasures in preparation for a situation like this.”
Sloth’s mouth twitched.
Then, black liquid dripped from between the sharp teeth. Soon, a huge rectangle was drawn in the air.
“What does that mean again?”
“It doesn’t mean much. I’m just saying that while you’re here like this, the place you cherished will become a sea of fire.”
What is visible through the rectangular black box is the giants’ fortress.
It was a base held by Jinhyeok.
Quaaaang!
A huge explosion occurred in the giants’ fortress.
A holy being with power beyond recognition swung a sword larger than his own body.
Kizakiel.
The battle leader of Eden was gritting his teeth to find the crown of defeat… … .
… … He set out directly to achieve that goal.
Moreover, the number of Eden’s soldiers who follow him is also difficult to count.
“It would be quite troublesome if it became known that the demon world had joined hands with Eden, right?”
“We are only together for a while because our interests are aligned. That guy is just playing chess. The Demon King said that if I were to hunt a loach like you, I had to make some preparations… I was skeptical at first, but now I understand the deep meaning.”
Since Kizakiel himself stepped forward. Medium-sized bases will disappear without even leaving a trace.
In order to prevent that, Jinhyuk would have to return to the base right now.
“But if you rush to deal with me, your life will be in danger.”
It’s like having to fight wearing huge shackles.
ruler.
“What do you plan to do now?”
People who are cornered usually shake hands excitedly or give up everything in resignation.
of course.
Jinhyuk did not fit into either of those cases.
“I also… expected that you would target the base.”
The base is the source of that power.
Of course, I have no intention of handing over such a place easily.
“So, I have placed reliable colleagues.”
＊＊＊
“Whoa….”
Short bobbed white hair, red eyes.
[Special ability ‘Gumiho’ transformation – ‘Fox Fire Play’ begins.]
Nine tails sprouted along Andria’s back.
“This is the Master’s order. From now on, we will repel all intruders.”
T-Bone, riding a ghost warhorse, came out of the castle gate.
They were followed by ancient soldiers also riding ghost warhorses.
“Mooogii!”
“Kyaoooo!”
“I, one of the Four Gods of Death, only have to do water-based warfare… If the rest of them heard about it, they’d be laughing their butts off.”
Sweet Potato, Havelian, and Soft Black Cranes also greeted the enemies at the top of the fort.
Now is the beginning of a full-scale stair war.
ruler.
“What are you going to do now?”
Jinhyuk raised the topic.
