Solo Resurrection

Chapter 108

The Grim Reaper Returns from Death (4)

“How far have we progressed?”

“Most have been transported back to our country. We had to kill a few that were difficult to subdue, but…”

“That’s enough.”

Bandarenko shook his head, cutting off his subordinate’s words.

“It’s not a problem if we lose a few. More importantly… How long does that guy intend to rampage?”

Bandarenko frowned as he looked ahead.

At the end of his gaze was Kang-hyeon, who was fighting alone against numerous alliance members.

“Arghhhh!”

“What are you doing! He’s just one man!”

A carpet bombing of magic was unleashed.

These were the elite of the alliance.

Because Bandarenko had personally imbued them with magical power, they possessed higher magical levels than ordinary ability users.

They continuously poured out magic based on their overflowing magical power.

-Boom boom boom boom!

The magic raining down on Kang Hyeon created blinding light and thunderous sounds.

“Is he dead…?”

“Shut up!”

Someone uttered a foolish line as they watched the rising dust cloud.

After a moment. As the dust settled, Kang Hyeon appeared standing unscathed in the middle.

“Hah, good job.”

In Kang Hyeon’s hand was a corpse reduced to rags.

After throwing away the corpse he had been using as a shield, Kang Hyeon moved again.

“Damn it! Deploy binding magic!”

“It’s not working!”

“Warriors. Throw your bodies at him and capture him if you have to!”

From the perspective of those facing him, Kang Hyeon was truly an irregular.

He was a monster outside of normal standards.

Even their alliance leader Bandarenko couldn’t show such movements against this many opponents.

“It’s over.”

While everyone was flustered by Kang Hyeon’s unexpected performance, Bandarenko coldly analyzed the situation.

“The speed at which his body is recovering has noticeably slowed. It seems his stamina is already exhausted.”

Bandarenko’s words were correct.

Although Kang Hyeon tried his best to act as if nothing was wrong, even that had reached its limit now.

In a situation where it was difficult to move even a finger, he was moving solely on willpower.

“Ugh…”

“Hah, hah…”

Kang Hyeon, who had just stabbed his sword into another person’s neck, breathed heavily.

“You monstrous bastard!”

“That’s enough. He’s exhausted now too. Just surround him like this.”

The alliance members completely surrounded Kang Hyeon.

They too sensed that Kang Hyeon had reached his limit.

“Phew, hey. Are you listening?”

Kang Hyeon muttered in a small voice.

-…

It was directed at Veil, who was sleeping, or rather pretending to sleep, inside Bilgein’s Longsword in his hand.

“I’m asking for the last time. Help me.”

-…

Bilgein’s Longsword had gained even more power when Veil dwelled in it.

But that was all.

The sword’s control had completely passed to Veil, and Kang Hyeon couldn’t use any of his previous abilities at all.

The Bilgein’s greatsword in Kang Hyeon’s hand now was just a hard and sharp sword.

“Whether you help or not, I’m going to die anyway. But you know what?”

Kang Hyeon gripped Bilgein’s greatsword tightly.

“Aren’t you pissed off? You kept bragging about being a great knight. Blabbering about honor and protection. But is this it in the end? Is your pride so important when innocent kids are about to be caught and killed by those Russian bastards?”

As Kang Hyeon was speaking, Bandarenko slowly approached.

“Give up. If you surrender quietly even now, we’re willing to spare your life.”

The interpreter’s words translating Bandarenko’s speech stabbed at Kang Hyeon’s ears.

‘Talking nonsense about sparing my life.’

He never intended to live from the beginning.

But Kang Hyeon needed to buy time.

“Will you really spare me?”

Excited by Kang Hyeon’s response, the interpreter eagerly explained.

“Mr. Kang Hyeon. Listen to me carefully. If you surrender now, Mr. Bandarenko here will give you an important position in the alliance and also…”

While letting the interpreter’s explanation flow past his ears, Kang Hyeon continued to address Veil.

“I’m telling you for the last time. Help me.”

-Even if I help, you’ll die anyway.

Finally, a response came from Veil.

“Didn’t you hear what I said earlier? Even if I die, I’ll revive.”

-You expect me to believe such a lie…

“What if it’s true?”

Veil fell silent at Kang Hyeon’s words.

“If I die like this and revive… Do you know what I’ll do first? I’ll throw your useless ass into a furnace! You son of a bitch!”

“Um, Mr. Kang Hyeon…?”

When Kang Hyeon suddenly shouted, unable to contain his anger, the interpreter was taken aback.

“I’m thinking, so wait!”

After snapping at the interpreter, Kang Hyeon addressed Veil again.

“Phew, so I’m asking for your help. If you help me now…”

-If I help?

“Let’s properly beat those guys together. Let’s revive spectacularly, smash them all, and save the people too.”

Even at Kang Hyeon’s words, Veil’s response was skeptical.

-Is that possible? The magical power possessed by their leader is greater than the magical power I had when I became undead. At that level, it would be someone renowned in a country during the time I was alive…

“You talk too much. How did you hold back until now when you were so itching to fight?”

-Is this the time for such jokes…

“Fuck. What are you going to do if it doesn’t work? Are you just going to bury your head because we’re going to lose anyway? Is that the chivalry you talk about?”

-…

“If that’s chivalry and honor, I can see why you were stuck in that dungeon.”

-Watch your mouth.

“If you don’t want to help, get lost. Bastard. I can do it alone without you.”

Kang Hyeon, who had lightly stretched his body, slowly walked forward.

“Hey, interpreter.”

“Yes? Yes!”

“Are you Korean?”

“Yes. That’s right.”

“Then why are you working under that Russian criminal?”

“Well, I had no choice…”

“Nevermind. Tell the guy with the biggest nose next to you that I’ve lost.”

“Understood!”

The interpreter, his face brightening considerably, excitedly rattled off something in Russian.

It was when Bandarenko was smiling triumphantly after hearing those words.

“And also tell him that we’ll continue the second round in hell.”

“Huh..?”

As the interpreter wore a stupid expression, explosive power surged through Kang Hyeon’s entire body.

“You were going to help anyway, why play hard to get.”

Kang Hyeon grinned as he charged towards Bandarenko, who was staring with disbelief.

Bandalenko looked down at Kang Hyeon arrogantly with his arms crossed.

“What is he saying?”

“He says he has lost.”

Bandalenko smiled with satisfaction at the interpreter’s words.

“As he should. Tell him not to worry, I’ll spare his life. Heh.”

It wasn’t a lie.

Bandalenko intended to let Kang Hyeon live.

‘I can’t just kill someone with that level of magical power.’

Thoroughly. He would squeeze out every last drop of magical power. Until he could no longer be called an ability user.

After that, he would sell him for a high price to those who research the bodies of ability users.

‘Since he’s world-renowned, I should get quite a hefty sum.’

It was while Bandalenko was counting his chickens before they hatched.

Kang Hyeon said something again.

“Huh…?”

The interpreter’s face showed a dumbfounded expression.

“What did he just sa-“

Bandalenko couldn’t finish his sentence.

Because Kang Hyeon flew at him with a speed twice as fast as what he had shown until now.

“Hup!”

Bandalenko hurriedly poured all his magical power into creating a defensive wall.

This should easily block most attacks, but it seemed insufficient against Kang Hyeon.

-Kwaaaang!

As expected, all the defensive walls were shattered with one attack from Kang Hyeon.

“To think this is human power…”

Bandalenko, who had already retreated to the back, used all sorts of magic to confuse Kang Hyeon’s vision.

“What are you!”

Kang Hyeon was holding a hammer that looked like it would weigh tons with just one hand.

Bandalenko unconsciously swallowed at the sight that seemed to defy the laws of physics.

“What’s the big nose saying? Speak Korean!”

Seeing Kang Hyeon rushing towards him again, Bandalenko quickly assessed the situation.

‘A one-time skill. The power that can only come from a skill premised on self-sacrifice.’

Having intuited Kang Hyeon’s weakness, he shouted urgently.

“Don’t engage, just buy time! Focus on enduring!”

It was then.

Kang Hyeon, who had already broken through the surrounding ability users, was right in front of him.

‘Too fast!’

It was a speed that was unbelievable for handling such weight.

The startled Bandalenko once again poured out his magical power.

‘This should be enough to endure!’

In that split second.

Bandalenko layered four types of shield magic multiple times and used six spells to strengthen his body, but

-Kwaaang!

“Kuhek!”

It was useless.

Bandalenko’s bones broke helplessly like twigs when grazed by the hammer.

“The Alliance leader is in danger!”

“Everyone, move!”

Due to the overwhelming impact, Bandalenko flew over 100 meters.

That situation saved Bandalenko’s life.

While Kang Hyeon was surrounded by Union members again, Bandalenko hurriedly deployed healing magic.

“Huff, huff! That monster!”

It was a power that Bandalenko’s common sense simply couldn’t comprehend.

Strong abilities are accompanied by corresponding recoil.

To eliminate that, one had to raise all abilities and stats evenly, and make the stats truly one’s own through painful effort.

Nevertheless, Bandalenko only managed to stabilize his magical power alone.

This was because his body couldn’t handle the excessively high magical power.

“But what is that guy…”

However, Kang Hyeon now had overwhelming levels of strength, agility, and stamina, all visibly increased.

“You’re saying the body can withstand that?”

No. Forget about the body enduring, the mind would collapse.

A level of pain that would make being burned by fire or slashed by blades feel like child’s play would surge.

There was no way a human could endure that level of pain.

“Kuuk… Kuk. Run away…”

“That’s not human. It’s not something we can handle…”

The Kang Hyeon reflected in Bandalenko’s eyes had completely transcended the realm of humanity.

Now he didn’t even think about avoiding the magic directed at him.

A literal berserker.

A man crazy for battle.

Kang Hyeon focused solely on killing the enemy.

Those who could be considered the elite of the Alliance were annihilated in less than 5 minutes.

No, they were reduced to mere puddles of blood.

“…”

Looking around at the subordinates who were still alive, none were unscathed.

Bandalenko’s fist, clenched tight with tension, began to tremble.

‘Even if their bodies were fine, it would have been useless anyway.’

Everyone was terrified.

And Bandalenko was no different.

‘Is he not human…’

In his eyes, Kang Hyeon was a grim reaper returned from death.

“Kuhek, kuhuhek…”

Finally, after 5 minutes had passed, Kang Hyeon, drained of all strength, could no longer run.

Kang Hyeon was walking like a dying person.

The huge hammer and the brilliantly glowing red sword had disappeared.

“Kukuk…”

But his eyes were still burning.

Facing Kang Hyeon’s eyes, Bandalenko was nothing more than a mere herbivore before a beast of prey.

“…”

A moment of silence.

The only sound was Kang Hyeon’s powerless footsteps scraping the ground.

At last, Kang Hyeon approached right in front of him, and Bandalenko gulped.

“Gi, gi… Ra. Da… Onda…”

Korean words heard in a very faint voice. After uttering only those words, Kang Hyeon collapsed to the ground.

“Huff, huff…”

Only then did Bandalenko take a breath and carefully examine Kang Hyeon.

“He’s dead.”

His heart had completely stopped.

Upon confirming this, Bandalenko sat down as if collapsing.
