Episode 339: Graksar (3)
It was a bizarre scene.
Graksar’s body, covered in purple energy, began to shake and grow bigger as it turned purple.
I opened my eyes wide. The eyes were red and seemed as if they would pop out at any moment, and the veins stood out all over the face.
I swallowed a moan from the tremendous pain.
When the ever-expanding energy touched the amputated right arm, it tangled like a living creature and formed a new arm.
A series of processes.
It looked dangerous.
Roman Dmitry watched quietly as the monster was born.
‘It’s a familiar power.’
Purple energy.
I had a memory of experiencing it.
When dealing with Shefir, he dragged Roman Dmitri into the purple space.
The memories of that day are still vivid.
It was a type of power that was not allowed in the human world, so I thought about the hypothesis that there might be a being other than humans behind the Kronos Empire.
That means. This meant that the entity that gave Graksar his power was related to the Kronos Empire.
Not only was it not enough for them to spread their magic all over the Salamander Continent, but they were also planning some kind of plan in Arcadia to avoid people’s eyes.
I didn’t attack on purpose.
I stood by.
I wanted to see how much stronger Graksar became after accepting the power of the devil.
‘Alexandr went into rest after the war with Dmitry. He promotes peace externally and strictly adheres to the ceasefire negotiations, but everyone knows that is not the truth.’
Also during the prisoner of war incident.
The Kronos Empire was silent.
They were angry about nothing and talked about the war, but I hoped that the whole situation would pass quietly.
Behind the scenes.
There was clearly a conspiracy.
It was no coincidence that Alexandre was put to rest, Isabel, who had been interfering with the plans of the Kronos Empire, disappeared, and Graksar heard the devil’s whisper.
There was something.
If it was a truth that could not be known even with Dmitry’s intelligence, he planned to confirm at least part of it through Graksar.
if.
What would have happened if Graksar had accepted the devil’s temptation earlier?
Before the Luna Kingdom could ask for help, Luna’s fortress would have been torn down and Arcadia completely conquered.
At that time, the situation could not be resolved on a small scale like it is now.
If the Kronos Empire’s intention was to form a force to attack Dmitri beyond the endless mountain range.
When war broke out again, unexpected beings would have crossed the endless mountain range and placed Dmitri in danger.
Kronos was alive and well.
I just crouched down.
At some point, he increased his power to reveal his ambition to conquer the continent again.
Finally.
“Kaaaaaaak.”
Graksar roared.
The moment the purple-colored eyes turned towards Roman Dmitry, his presence suddenly disappeared from sight.
Pot.
Crumbling.
* * *
Graksar did not disappear.
To be exact, he rushed at him at incredible speed and swung the ax with his clearly severed arm.
Quang!
Crumbling.
Roman Dmitry was pushed back.
It was a tremendously destructive force.
Graksar showed destructive power that was incomparable to before, to the point where the impact was felt even when blocked.
“Kaaak!”
Quang!
Kwa-kwa-kwa-kwak!
They launched an indiscriminate attack.
When Roman Dmitry raised his sword to block, he swung his opposite hand, and when he took a step back, he immediately followed up and struck the ax in succession.
Roman Dmitry’s body shook.
Even when defending normally, Graksar’s destructive power had an even greater impact.
To those watching the situation, it looked so dangerous that it would not be surprising if Roman Dmitry was hit at any time.
Pot.
Crumbling.
Graksar jumped high.
As the huge ax was raised with both hands, red energy and purple energy intertwined, giving off a tremendous presence.
Quang!
Kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwak!
People closed their eyes tightly.
The moment the ax struck, even experts like Ares were pushed back.

I got goosebumps all over my body.
Before accepting the power of the devil, Ares was an opponent with a good chance of victory, but the being pushing Roman Dmitri now was completely different.
Twice? 3 times? The changes in Graksar could not be explained simply by numbers.
The destructive energy that had never been seen before seemed to push against Roman Dmitry’s aura.
Kwasik.
The floor was caved in.
The snow that had accumulated on the ground had already blown away due to the energy that had spread to the surroundings, and even a blizzard could not invade their territory due to the storm of the aura.
It was a fight outside of heaven. Luna’s soldiers were speechless due to Graksar’s strength.
Without Roman Dmitri, there was no way to defeat that monster with Luna’s power.
“… … If I just kill you… … We live.”
It was a murky voice.
Orc’s unique breathing sound.
It wasn’t Graksar’s usual voice either.
The voice, distorted and murky, could only be heard from the bottom of the abyss, and even in a state of loss of self, he showed a strong desire to save the orcs.
It would have been nice to die like this.
No matter what the demon did after taking his soul, what was immediately important to Graksar was that the orcs did not survive on the bodies of their own kind.
Bah!
I swung my left hand.
When Roman Dmitry blocked it, he swung the ax again with his right arm.
Quang!
Kwa-kwa-kwa-kwak!
Must kill.
I will definitely kill you.
My enthusiasm was boiling over.
They rushed through the space so quickly that the average person could not catch up with them, pushing Roman Dmitry.
however.
Something was strange.
Roman Dmitry does not deserve to be treated like this.
No matter how many times stronger he became by borrowing the power of the devil, Roman Dmitri’s strength, which blew off his arm with a single blow, completely overwhelmed Graksar.
But now, it seemed like Graksar was pushing it unilaterally.
Roman Dmitry must have had a chance to counterattack, but he responded defensively to the point where it felt odd.
The reason was unknown.
There was no time to think.
The moment Graksar once again raised his aura and was about to attack, Roman Dmitri’s sword flashed.
Quang!
Crumbling.
“Kaaak.”
Graksar was pushed back.
A battle of strength and power.
He exploded with purple energy, but he was clearly defeated by Roman Dmitri’s blow.
The pupils shook.
He sold his soul to the devil.
This result could not have been possible.
With his eyes filled with astonishment, Roman Dmitri looked at Graksar with an indifferent look.
“Is this your best?”
A word I blurted out.
That showed people the truth.
* * *
It was intentional.
We deliberately moved defensively and accepted Graksar’s power as is.
It was strong.
I had no choice but to admit it.
Graksar was a monster that no one except Roman Dmitri could defeat, and if there were at least one or two monsters like this, they would pose a great threat to Dmitri.
Kronos’ ambition was backed by a lot of power.
If the wizard who had blown up the capital of Odelia and monsters like these accompanied him, no matter how strong Roman Dmitri was, it would have been difficult to stop them all.
Moment.
showed a smile
Roman Dmitry felt genuinely happy about this situation.
“Do you know what I hate the most?”
Graksar did not answer.
He was just breathing heavily and looking for an opportunity, and it looked like he was going to rush in whenever he got the chance.
but.
I couldn’t move.
As if his feet were glued to the ground, there was no gap in sight from the opponent.
“It is a life in which there are no longer any enemies.”
Past life.
Baek Jung-hyuk rose to the top.
It was a goal that was barely achieved at the level of heaven, not at the level of heaven, and Baek Jung-hyuk’s life was extremely boring after that.
No matter how strong he became, there was no opponent to test his strength.
As time passed, he ascended to higher and higher levels, but the meaning of that power began to disappear.
Baek Jung-hyuk’s notoriety weighed on people.
Even those who had a great reputation in the martial arts world bowed their heads and knelt at the mere mention of Baek Jung-hyuk’s name.
It was the irony of life.
When Baek Jung-hyuk was young, all he wanted was to rule.
Roman Dmitry, whose current life was mixed with his previous life, hoped that the process of reigning would be as difficult as possible and that there would be as many opponents as possible.
So that.
It had meaning.
Even after reaching the heights of heaven, the loneliness of not having an opponent could not be expressed in words.
so that.
Not yet.
Not yet.
No matter who Alexander is or who is behind him.
I hoped this wouldn’t be the end.
The fact that there is no opponent, even yourself, who has not reached the level of your previous life, will give you a feeling of helplessness even greater than that of your previous life.
I’m not even in my 30s yet. Because I had so many days to live, the fighting spirit was boiling inside me.
And now.
I felt confident.
Behind Kronos.
He was someone whose chances of victory could not be guaranteed as he was now.
If he could make Graksar like this just by infusing him with energy, he was clearly a being who had surpassed human limitations.
So how could you not be happy?
The fact that there was still an opponent he had to defeat, and the fact that it wasn’t enough right now, brought a smile to Roman Dmitry’s face.
“I want you to be more prepared. So that I can unleash my power, my everything.”
Okay.
I picked up my sword.
Looking at Graksar, who had no intention of moving, Roman Dmitri raised the power of the Heavenly Demon God.
“Look. This is the strength you must bear in the future.”
widely.
Heavenly Demon Reign, the eighth step.
The aura exploded.
The aura erupting from the Danjeon showed tremendous explosive power, as if an active volcano was exploding.
‘Lee Cho-sik, the second half of the Heavenly Demon Sword Technique.’
Flash.
Just one blow.
Graksar’s body.
I was literally engulfed in a storm of aura.
* * *
Extinction.
The very existence disappeared.
My eyes and ears were blind.
Graksar’s body was torn apart by the storm of aura, and when his distant vision returned, his presence was nowhere to be found.
Everyone knew. That the person who existed before my eyes had died.
The greatest Orc in the history of the Gray Wasteland could do nothing in the face of overwhelming force.
I was mesmerized.
There were still many orcs.
But now that they had seen the scene before their eyes, the Orcs had no choice but to drop their weapons and raise a white flag.
“Chwiik, Sa, please save me!”
“Chwiik, I will sacrifice my life for Dmitri from now on. Please don’t destroy us.”
Tu-tu-tuk.
Everyone threw away their weapons.
I lost my will to fight.
In the face of overwhelming force, they accepted that the war was over.
Roman Dmitry said.
“You probably had your own circumstances. In the cold of Arcadia, the only way for the Orcs to survive was to sacrifice other races. But if you consider defeat. I should not have crossed the irreversible river. From the moment you treated humans as food and ate their flesh, you and the humans of Arcadia became incapable of living under the same sky.”
“Chwiik, please, please…” … !”
“Chwiik, please forgive me just once!”
Fear spread.
They instinctively knew that the only way to survive was to return Roman Dmitry’s heart.
but.
“There are no special ill feelings. “I just don’t want to set a precedent of showing mercy to people like you.”
Suddenly.
Wow.
He blew off the head of an orc who was begging for his life.
Blood splattered.
The moment his gaze, stained with fear and embarrassment, turned towards Roman Dmitri, he gave an order in a cold voice.
“Kill them all.”
extinction.
With a firm command, the massacre began.
* * *
That time.
Kayden and Gyro walked quickly.
With Roman Dmitry’s plan to deal with tens of thousands of Orcs, they could not sit still and wait for the results.
‘It’s a result of me. We can’t let Roman Dmitry take all that responsibility. Even if you have to die on the battlefield while dealing with the orcs. I take responsibility for the defeat and will die for Luna.’
It was a gyro.
The body has not yet matured.
But he actively encouraged me to walk.
My body stumbled every time I walked.
Gyro’s body screamed for him to get some rest, but his poisonous eyes gritted his teeth and endured the pain.
The memory of that day was still clear in my mind.
When they joined forces with the Yetis and drove the Orcs into a trap, the presence of Graksar who appeared behind them gave them a great sense of despair.
at that time.
The soldiers saw Gyro.
They hoped it would solve the reality in front of them, but Gyro could not guarantee their lives.
I walked hard.
walking.
I walked again.
They usually refrain from marching at night on days with heavy snowfall, but except for some stragglers, the rest headed toward the elves’ territory, even reducing their sleep.
My mind became complicated.
What is really happening there? There was a very high probability that they would engage in a few battles and remain on guard in a lull.
Tens of thousands vs. thousands.
This was not a war that would end quickly.
Kayden told him to trust Roman Dmitri, but Gyro’s guilt did not allow him to be complacent.
How long did you walk?
We finally entered the realm of the elves.
I grabbed my sword.
I was thinking of adding strength once I entered the battlefield, but the more I moved, the more Gyro’s eyes began to flutter.
“… … “What the hell is this?”
Right in front of you.
A rugged snowy field unfolded.
The curves of the snowy field were not due to the accumulated snow, but were due to the sight of a corpse emerging beneath it.
Corpses fill the field of vision.
Gyro stopped walking.
