Demon King

Monster Heart (5)

The moment the Giant Red-maned Wolf appeared, the atmosphere on the battlefield changed.

The monsters trembled, and the humans seemed to have reached their limit, too.

“Damn it!”

“I’m sorry, guys!”

Almost all regular monsters were dead, and the monsters that remained in the passage are powerful.

Humans may think they are more likely to survive if they ran away.

People who had strong melee abilities were dead, and most of the survivors were the ones from the backline.

“We need to go, brother!”

“What are you saying!”

“Shut up!”

The archers, wizards, and priests who had weak defenses were anxious to run. It was obvious that their feet were itching to escape.

But it’s useless. There are still three Giant Wolves and two Giant Spiders who can easily catch them. They were locked on to the human foes.

On the other hand, the Red Werewolf did not care about them. He has been facing me since the moment he appeared.

He knows where I am.

Is it an illusion? His red mane seems to pulse with the dungeon.

He was sharing the sensation of the entire 2F. Without that, he wouldn’t be able to see me.

He was absorbing the anger of the entire 2F, and it pulses and radiates in his body.

The Ebon Heart thumped as if waiting for him, but I deliberately ignored it.

It’s silly to deal with him now. I couldn’t fight him until I confirmed that all humans were dead.

He didn’t like being ignored.

“Ow ow!”

The Red-maned Wolf cried. At that moment, all the wolves on 2F stopped moving and raised their heads towards him. They couldn’t see me, but they rushed in my direction.

Damn.

It’s annoying to deal with them, but it’s not difficult. However, my priority is to make sure that humans won’t leave the dungeon and escape the monsters.

I charged straight at them, stepping on their heads and slashing their throats with Blood Shadow.

Beyond the rising blood mist, I could see the human faces staring in awe and fear.

“He’s a demon!”

“Is that a compliment?” I appeared in front of the human who spoke and wielded my sword against him.

[You gained 139,809 experience.]

[You acquired 38 gold.]

I would not spare him. Every time I kill humans, I place them inside the inventory.

I created traps around humans. Even if the traps’ killing power was low, it’s enough to hold them in place.

“Shh.. what’s this! Ouch!”

“There’s something around our feet!”

Once I caught them, the spiders took over even if I don’t kill the humans myself.

The Intermediate-level Lunatic Trickster can create up to three traps at once.

Every time a trap is triggered, and after confirming that the prey was killed by the spiders, I created new traps.

There were always three traps as far as my sight could reach. Whether triggered or unsuccessful, I constantly made traps.

Sometimes, it causes fatal wounds.

Equipment items were consumed continuously, as well as mana and stamina.

If I need to refill it, the materials around me were overflowing!

[Level up!]

[Intermediate Lunatic Trickster has become Lv3.]

The number of humans has declined rapidly. The number of monsters has decreased as well. It was me who led the situation.

And Red Werewolf was watching it.

It looked like he wanted to rush to me right now, but he didn’t. He seems to understand I’m not going to fight him yet.

If he tries to, I can avoid him. My agility can match anyone.

His stare seems to be a warning however, that I could never avoid a battle with him eventually.

He would obviously attack the moment I finish the humans. He will do it when I least expect it.

I knew. I’m not stupid. I have been preparing all this time.

He knows my abilities if he is the 2F’s monster form. He would have seen them.

I am not sure of his speed and power. Perhaps, he is as strong as all of 2F. From the moment he showed up, he already found my position.

That’s why it would be hard to beat him. It will be a very tedious battle. It may be dangerous.

So how will I do it?

Simple.

Use an ability that has never been used in 2F.

[Kang Si-ha (Fate)]

[Bugbear Lv68]

[Strength – 539 Stamina – 468 Magic – 336 Luck-???]

[Skill-Ebon Heart, Predation Lv4, Advanced Martial Arts Lv2, Intermediate Lunatic Trickster Lv3, Intermediate Armor Defense Lv5, Intermediate Regeneration Lv6, Intermediate Flame Magic Lv3, Intermediate Power Attack Lv4, Intermediate Black Lv9, Intermediate Leap Lv1, Advanced Detection Lv4, Advanced Surprise Lv9, Intermediate Fairy Tale Lv9, Intermediate Beast Charge Lv6, Intermediate Leadership Lv8, Intermediate Immunity Lv9, Lower Fantasy Magic Lv4, Beginner Healing Magic Lv3, Beginner Speed ​​Attack Lv2, Beginner Water Magic Lv2]

My flagship skills would have been familiar to him. The other skills obtained by killing humans are at the Beginner level, so I doubt they would have any effect on him.

So, what should I use?

The sheer strength of a Power Attack may not be enough if I can’t land it.

Do I have a skill that could bait him to his death?

There is.

A high-level skill that has never been used in 2F.

Just as he was planning to drive his claws into my heart, I have been planning the moment I would pierce his heart with my sword.

Still, my legs and sword did not rest. I have to sort out everything else before I face him.

Finally, down to the last human.

“Monster!”

The human screamed at me. He couldn’t find my position, so he was just crying out desperately.

He’s the last one. More than a hundred humans died.

“How long do you think could be hiding here?! There will be rumors that our guild disappeared in this dungeon! Then, other guilds will come in. You are over!”

“Kiya!”

I pierced Blood Shadow through the head of a Giant Spider, who was trying to shoot a spider web at the human. He’s the last Giant Spider in this space.

“Yes, maybe one day, more would come,” I agreed.

“Take this!”

The human tried to wield a magic wand to the source of my voice, but before he could, several iron bars pierced him from the ground.

It was a trap created from the spears of the other Phoenix Hunters members.

“Arghh!”

Melee users could have dodged that, but wizards and priests were ridiculously weak against traps.

His wand fell off his arm and rolled on the floor.

He screamed with a pained expression.

“You are over! You are over!”

“I’m very curious who between the two of us is over.”

I cut his head off.

[You gained 125,091 experience.]

[Level up!]

All the rare monsters are dead. All the humans are dead.

There is only one remaining.

The Red Werewolf was rushing to me, without a sound.

As if it had been waiting for this moment.

It was aiming its sharp nails for my heart!

It was so fast that he appeared to be a red flash.

His nails flashed in the dark.

It was inevitable.

It was an attack that considered all my possible moves. It could not be avoided.

At the same time, my preparation is also finished.

“Kyap!”

His claws pierced something. The sound of breaking metal and tearing flesh and bones rang throughout the quiet passage. Subsequently, a huge amount of blood was sprayed in the air.

“Key… key?”

Then, a metal bar was activated to restrain his legs.

[Lower Fantasy Magic has become Lv5.]

It was a trap that was designed to capture him after he attacks the human body covered in armor.

He mistook the human body for me.

It was the result of a combination of Lunatic Trickster and Fantasy Magic.

The Fantasy Magic was still at the Lower level, so I was anxious if it would be able to trick the enemy properly.

But I saw him rush to the body.

Smashing through it, as if he was killing me.

He didn’t know about this skill.

I appeared behind his back and stabbed his heart with the Blood Shadow immediately.

His think red mane entangled my sword and tried to slow it down, but Flame Magic and Black Lightning burned it all off, and the sword pierced through.

“Kehek!”

The Red Werewolf struggled and vomited blood.

The Werewolf King, wearing the Pelcadia jewel, died immediately after his heart has been pierced, but this one didn’t.

Even though his heart was pierced, the Red Werewolf struggled persistently, until he pulled its legs out of the trap.

“Kiyi!”

His force was so powerful! The next moment, his body was starting to heal.

“Kee, kihi…”

The Red Werewolf stared at me with a deadly glare, but I poured all my mana on the sword that still pierced his heart.

As he took in a full charged Black Lightning and Flame Magic, he vomited a brilliant flame.

It was rather dazzling.

[You gained 187,204 experience.]

[You acquired 5 gold.]

[You obtained the Cursed Fang.]

[You obtained the Blood Fang.]

A few alerts popped up as I pulled out Blood Shadow. The Red Werewolf’s body crashed to the ground; then silence came to the dungeon.

“Hoo…”

When I raised my head, I saw the piles of human bodies and monster bodies everywhere.

The dungeon quieted down, and the widened passageways and high ceilings slowly returned to their place.

Only

It is finished.

Everyone is dead. Of course, I knew I could do it, but it was still surprising.

Every day I will face in the future will be like this. There is no way for me to survive without killing.

From the moment I opened my eyes as a monster, it has been decided.

I should keep getting stronger. Otherwise, it is me who will die next time.

I closed my eyes to shake off the past and greet the future.

My present was full of determination.

“I will enjoy this food.”
