All Master of 100 Floors Episode 273
62nd Floor. War Between Hell and Ground (5)
A fragment of the dying sun descends upon the world. The demons’ expressions change entirely.
Since information about this place had been transmitted to them as well, they understood the power contained in that sun.
Terrifyingly strong and vast—a level of power even they could not comprehend.
Heat on a cosmic scale that would incinerate the entire area.
But they had prepared a countermeasure. The Giant Demon hurls himself forward.
“I’m counting on you!”
“Got it!”
The Mage Demon raises his staff.
Meteors pour down toward the sun in unison. The streaming heat melts the meteors in an instant, reducing them to ash, but another wave of meteors blankets the space above.
“Uuuugh!”
The Mage Demon grits his teeth. After pouring out all his demonic energy, he barely managed to suppress the heat.
Then the Giant Demon swells his body enormously and clenches his fist.
Channeling a force as if to split the very world itself, he hurls it toward the fragment of sun.
Boom!
A violent explosion engulfs everything. The Giant’s body cannot withstand the force and is driven backward.
“Grrrgh!”
“Ugh!”
The shockwave sweeps over the demons.
Though the Curse-caster Demon desperately deployed his defense, it pierces through, and wounds both great and small open across his body.
“Huff, huff.”
“…We held it back!”
But they succeeded in defending. The demons clench their fists. They had countered their opponent’s trump card.
It was their victory.
But as they rejoiced, they soon noticed something strange.
Kang Jun-hyeok was nowhere to be seen.
As if he had vanished from this world entirely, not even his presence could be felt.
“…!”
They were startled. But they quickly made their judgment.
Somehow, he had concealed himself.
He could not have fled.
Then he must be targeting them.
If he is targeting them, whom would he strike first?
“…Protect them!”
“Yes!”
The Giant Demon and Warrior Demon form a protective guard around the Mage Demon and Curse-caster Demon.
And in that instant, Kang Jun-hyeok appears.
Directly before the Giant Demon.
“I knew you’d do that.”
Kang Jun-hyeok twisted his lips into a smile. If he were to hide and strike, he’d naturally target whoever annoyed him most—whoever was the weakest link. It wasn’t a difficult prediction.
That’s why Kang Jun-hyeok had chosen not anyone else, but the most solid of them all—the Giant Demon.
‘Me?’
The Giant Demon’s eyes wavered at the sudden appearance of Kang Jun-hyeok before him.
But shock lasted only a moment; he maintained the demonic energy surrounding his entire body even more firmly. Breaking through his defense was impossible.
And that certainty shattered.
[Crevice Breaking.]
[Enhancement. Internal Energy. One-Point Pierce.]
Crack!
The demonic defense is pierced by the spear as if it were nothing.
In an instant, it tears through his body and reaches just before his heart. Kang Jun-hyeok drives his hand straight in.
[High-Output Gauntlets from Somewhere.]
Boom!
A violent burst of power explodes from within the wound. The Giant Demon cannot endure and coughs blood, collapsing to his knees.
‘How…could…!’
How did he break through my defense!
Because he had been confident in his own defense, the shock hit him all the harder.
But the Giant Demon did not fall. Gritting his teeth, he tries to seize Kang Jun-hyeok.
Kang Jun-hyeok’s body is pulled into the crevice.
[Crack Movement.]
He appears directly behind the Mage Demon.
In that moment, meteors and blades pour down in unison. Even as the Giant Demon falls, they do not stop. Instead, they heighten their vigilance.
The fact that they continue to do what they must despite a sudden assault means they are surely superior demons.
But the attacks do not land.
[Crack Movement.]
“What?”
Their attacks cut through empty air in vain, and Kang Jun-hyeok arrives before the Curse-caster Demon. He places his finger on the Curse-caster’s chest.
[Lost God’s Divine Radiance.]
Shriek!
“Kyaaaaaah!”
It was pure divine power.
For demons, it was matchup hell itself. Since the Curse-caster Demon’s health was already quite low, his body corrodes and withers in an instant.
“Eeeek!”
The Curse-caster Demon, in his final desperate struggle, scatters curses everywhere. He tries to taint and corrupt Kang Jun-hyeok’s body and soul.
[Crevice Distortion.]
That power is cleanly swallowed up.
“I… I….”
“Rest well.”
Kang Jun-hyeok severs the Curse-caster Demon’s neck. His body crumbles to ash and falls.
“You were the most troublesome of all.”
The Curse-caster, who could inflict all manner of debuffs—his power was unpredictable, making him the most difficult to deal with. Kang Jun-hyeok’s strategy had been targeting the Curse-caster from the very beginning.
Whoosh!
A blade flies at his back. He evades by leaping through a crevice.
[Crack Movement.]
“…You were hiding your power!”
The Swordsman Demon gnashes his teeth.
Kang Jun-hyeok had perfectly concealed his strength.
To provoke their carelessness and land a single decisive blow.
But they had failed to suspect him. It was hard to imagine that even after enduring their combined assault, he would retain such reserves.
“I’m no honorable knight or duel-master.”
Kang Jun-hyeok raises his finger.
[Pixie’s Mana Control.]
[Pixie’s Mana Box.]
Countless beams of light pour down toward the Mage Demon in unison. The Mage Demon’s face hardens.
‘This is…!’
Each trajectory of light is maintained with extreme precision. Even the slightest mishandling would cost him his life. The Mage Demon brings his staff down forcefully.
Boom!
Meteors and light collide violently. The Giant Demon staggers to his feet and guards his body.
In that moment, Kang Jun-hyeok senses a blade approaching his neck from behind.
[Block.]
Clang!
His body twists into an odd posture and blocks the dagger. The Assassin Demon quickly tries to hide himself.
The hidden Assassin cannot even be sensed by Kang Jun-hyeok.
Then there is no need to sense him.
[Spear Throwing.]
The spear flies through the air. Once Spear Throwing designates a target, it flies with perfect accuracy. It cannot evade even the power of crevices—there is no way a demon can escape. The Assassin Demon panics and deflects the oncoming spear.
Clang!
And in that instant, Kang Jun-hyeok closes in.
The Assassin tries desperately to escape, but it is useless. Within the Absolute World Suppression Domain, all his power and movement are laid bare.
“Ugh!”
The Swordsman Demon hurls himself forward to aid the Assassin.
But now Kang Jun-hyeok, enhanced by the surging fighting spirit, has his power and speed both increased. The Swordsman cannot catch up.
“Come to me!”
‘I want to!’
The Assassin Demon screams internally.
Kang Jun-hyeok responds perfectly, as if reading his very thoughts. The Assassin, judging escape impossible, feels his eyes go dull in an instant.
‘The opponent has taken damage from our previous attacks.’
One strike.
Just one strike is all it takes.
The Assassin charges instead. Drawing his dagger at high speed, he tries to drive it into Kang Jun-hyeok’s vital points.
But it does not connect.
The surging fighting spirit, combined even with Death Line Awakening.
All his senses are honed to razor sharpness.
He has now reached the realm beyond.
Clang-clang-clang!
He not only blocks the Assassin’s attacks but constrains the very act of attacking itself. He evades by a hair’s breadth the dagger aimed at his neck and drives his blade in return.
[Reset. One-Point Pierce.]
Boom!
He charges straight into the ground, pinning him there.
“Gasp, gasp.”
The Assassin Demon’s hand, which had tried to grab Kang Jun-hyeok, goes limp and falls.
He pivots quickly, draws his axe, and brings it down hard. It collides with the Swordsman Demon’s blade, and his opponent’s body slides backward under the force.
“Grrrgh!”
“You!”
The Mage Demon, having defended against all the cascading light, swings his meteors forth once more.
“You wield great power as a mage.”
One who commands such force
should face equal strength in return.
[Jealousy’s Reverse Heaven Spear.]
A spear imbued with divine power descends upon the world. The Mage Demon’s eyes widen.
“No, no, no….”
The Authority of Envy.
What it contained was the power of a great Demon Lord—Zephar, the Demon of Conception and Infertility.
The Mage Demon, recognizing it, gasps in shock.
“What is this! How can you, how can you wield the authority of that One!”
Boom!
The Reverse Heaven Spear shatters the meteors and charges forward.
[Rooting.]
Roots surge forth, covering the area and grasping the Giant Demon and Warrior Demon.
Kang Jun-hyeok’s eyes turn red.
[True Ancestor Awakening.]
His depleted health surges back instantly. He swings blood like a weapon, shattering and destroying magic. Then he pierces through the Mage Demon’s entire body.
Crack!
His entire form tears apart and vanishes.
“Raaaah!”
Boom!
The Giant Demon crushes the roots with his fist and hurls a punch.
Kang Jun-hyeok ‘sees’ the attack.
He reads all of it—the trajectory of the force, the flow, and the result. He steps forward with his spear.
[Thrust.]
Boom!
A perfect counter.
The damaged Giant Demon’s chest is pierced. Already half-dead from the previous assault, he falls immediately.
“You’re the only one left.”
“…Haha, hahaha!”
The lone remaining Swordsman Demon bursts into laughter.
“From the start, from the very start, you’ve been reading the outcome!”
They had focused on bringing Kang Jun-hyeok down immediately. They had poured everything into the battle itself.
In contrast, Kang Jun-hyeok was reading, calculating, encompassing all.
Not just the immediate battle, but every possible outcome that lay ahead.
“You are strong! A being in an entirely different class from us!”
It was not merely about raw power.
It was about the picture he was seeing. Kang Jun-hyeok opened his mouth.
“It wasn’t so simple. Had you known more information about me, it might have been different.”
If they had known about Crack Movement.
If they had known about Crevice Breaking, I might have been the one to fall.
“You’ve calculated even that and held back your strength. Praise is unnecessary.”
The Swordsman Demon takes on a serious expression and draws his sword.
“I know it’s shameless to ask, after fighting together. But at least for this final moment, would you grant me the honor of a fair fight, blade to blade?”
Kang Jun-hyeok wordlessly draws his sword. The Swordsman Demon smiles softly.
“I am truly grateful.”
Clang-clang-clang!
Weapons collide.
The Swordsman Demon fights with complete confidence and no hesitation. His power was indeed among the highest tiers of the third rank.
But it does not connect.
Kang Jun-hyeok now reaches for something higher.
The realm beyond. After tens of minutes of battle, at last Kang Jun-hyeok’s blade pierces the Swordsman Demon’s heart. The Swordsman coughs blood and falls.
“A satisfying death. Thank you….”
Five mighty demons.
All of them met their end at Kang Jun-hyeok’s hand.
