Chapter 124
124: Do You Know What Matchups Are? (3)
For now, it appeared I was holding my ground well, but my Analysis and I understood the truth. Rahel was currently observing me as if conducting reconnaissance, probing my capabilities.
Like a viper gradually injecting venom while assessing its prey, she studied me intently, and I, acutely aware of her scrutiny, methodically escalated my techniques and magic as though shifting through gears.
Yet Rahel still refrained from unleashing her full power. The evidence lay in her use of only twin daggers, deploying none of her poison-related techniques.
‘If poison gets added to this mix, it’ll truly be….’
I possessed a deadly toxin myself, but it felt premature to deploy it now.
I’d been reserving it as a trump card, but I had no way of knowing when Rahel might seize an opening.
Anxiety crept in—the fear that I might gradually lose ground—yet I endured, observing the attacks streaming from both sides while slowly drawing upon my magic reserves.
As I harbored these thoughts, Krol and Rahel watched me with similar impressions. The humans they’d hunted thus far were clearly of a different caliber. Even without both of them, they’d never encountered a human of this caliber before.
Rahel especially felt this way.
‘This one is stronger than I expected, isn’t he?’
Even if a human possessed higher stats than Rahel, she’d always believed humans simply lacked the bodily control she possessed. That’s why she’d personally eliminated the mid-rank and above parties without hesitation.
Thus she’d come to view humans as an inferior race—too many of them unable to fully manifest the power they possessed. But observing me now, she realized not all humans were the same.
With that thought, Rahel smiled coldly. Despite her twin daggers repeatedly wounding me, I regenerated, and simultaneously I deployed magic against Krol—checking his movements while defending and attacking in equal measure.
It was impossible not to be surprised.
Initially, she’d wondered if I was truly using magic, caught off guard by the spectacle. But now she was certain. Watching the bullets spinning ferociously to pierce through the Black Flame Wall that Krol conjured, conviction solidified.
I was a Monster who wielded both techniques and magic with exceptional skill.
‘If I let this one slip away now, he’ll become terrifyingly strong. Perhaps….’
At the thought that humans might become a new Superior Race, Rahel’s playful smile vanished.
Rahel swung her twin daggers toward me. And I blocked them while scattering magical bullets toward Krol with my other hand.
Whiiiiiing———!
Pong, pong, pong.
As the bullets fired, a sound like passing through clouds echoed before they melted away. The magical bullets hadn’t pierced Krol’s Black Flame Wall, yet his expression darkened.
While maintaining the Black Flame Wall, he couldn’t deploy other black flames, leaving him unable to check my movements. But if he dissolved this wall and attacked instead?
‘…I have no magic faster than that speed.’
Since no magic of mine exceeded the speed of my bullets, he was helpless.
The moment Krol found himself thus shackled, I began concentrating on landing blows against Rahel, and seeing that focus pour forth, she smiled seductively while beginning to reveal her true power.
“Shall we stop playing around?”
With those words, I felt a sudden chill as I looked at Rahel.
Behind her, as if a massive serpent twisted its mouth into a smile, I felt the illusion so vividly that I hastily retreated backward.
In the space I’d vacated, violet liquid cascaded down, and Rahel, watching the poison she’d spat out with a regretful expression, murmured.
“How unfortunate.”
Sssssssssss————
The Seafloor where the poison splashed melted away entirely across the entire area.
The toxin was so lethal that as the corroded ground turned violet and dissolved, I felt a chill run through me, swallowing hard as I retreated further back.
Judging it better to avoid that poison and engage from a distance, I began deploying magic toward Rahel as I did against Krol. And that magic, like with Hanalin, utilized mana property conversion to analyze Hanalin’s essence and transform it into my own before unleashing it.
As my mana shifted in nature and transformed into magic itself, spreading in all directions, countless bullets materialized to fill the surroundings.
Moreover, these weren’t ordinary bullets—each one was the size of a spear, spinning ferociously in their own right.
Whiiiiiiiiiing————!!!
The moment Krol saw this, he too felt a chill run down his spine. He conjured black flames, attempting to erect a defensive barrier, but Rahel, watching him, wiped the smile from her face and instead unleashed a torrent of venom to construct her own shield.
And belatedly, Dohyun began infusing the essence of spear technique into the spears he was spinning with fierce intensity.
The power of Cheongmyeong Jichang settled into each one—first they gleamed with azure light, then transformed into a pale gray aura, leaving long trails as they flew toward Krol and Rahel.
Whoooooooosh————!!!
Every spear that tore through the air carried within it a technique from Cheongmyeong Jichang.
Cheongmyeong Jichang, Eighth Form: Cheongmyeong Rain
The spears descended like a downpour. Each strike carried such tremendous force that Krol’s wall of black flames twisted and pierced through—in that brief moment, Krol vanished into the shadows to hide.
However, the venom barrier Rahel had deployed could not be penetrated by the spears; instead, they all splashed into the toxic liquid and dissolved away.
Simultaneously, the moment Rahel saw this, she drew upon her mana toward the venom spraying in all directions and unleashed her poison technique.
The toxins that had scattered everywhere gradually fractured into smaller particles, spreading outward, transforming into a violet mist that progressively engulfed the entire area.
As the deadly poison mist enveloped everything, it was as though a domain had been established—the faint vapor of venom began corroding the surroundings. Dohyun hastily held his breath and deployed magic again, attempting to disperse the poison mist with wind.
However, the toxins seemed to possess their own will, utterly unaffected by the wind as they flew toward Dohyun. The moment Dohyun tried to evade the poison, he could perceive it through Analysis.
Sparks like ignition scattered between the poison mist, and in that instant, a massive explosion engulfed Dohyun.
Rahel’s magical poison explosion unfolded.
Boooooom————!!!
A colossal explosion that shook the very earth erupted. A massive crater nearly ten times the size of the one created by Dohyun and Rahel’s initial collision formed, and for a moment, the terrain seemed to have been completely rearranged.
The destructive force was so immense that survival seemed nearly impossible. The explosion’s power was so tremendous that even on the seafloor, the heat caused the area surrounding the blast point to melt, creating a smooth, glass-like surface.
And from the edge of that explosion point, Rahel burst forth, with Krol appearing from her shadow, both gazing toward the center of the blast.
Though the explosion had detonated right before Dohyun, there was no trace left, so Rahel tilted her head with a puzzled expression, and Krol muttered as he observed this.
“Did it explode without leaving any trace?”
“No. Non-weapon items aren’t destroyed by physical force, so equipment should remain, but there’s nothing.”
As Rahel spoke thus to Krol, who was spouting nonsense, he wore an expression of disbelief when suddenly a sharp projectile burst forth from midair, flying directly at Krol’s brow. Rahel, as if she had anticipated this, swung her dagger and deflected the projectile.
Ting————!!
!!!
Krol flinched in surprise, apparently not expecting the projectile to emerge, while Rahel’s eyes sharpened as she gazed toward where the projectile had come from.
There, she could see Dohyun—most of his upper body charred and blackened from the explosion, his flesh exposed. Since the burn wounds on Dohyun’s body were already regenerating rapidly, Rahel nodded knowingly and smiled.
‘This one won’t be easy to kill through simple physical force.’
He had managed to evade her explosion and reduced the impact to a level where even taking a direct hit was survivable, relying on regeneration to heal the remaining wounds—it was no wonder Rahel made such an assessment.
Meanwhile, Dohyun, having survived the bombardment, breathed heavily and reflected.
‘She’s really strong.’
He had known about the poison explosion, but he hadn’t anticipated it would manifest so suddenly, nearly causing him to fail in his response. Without Analysis, he wouldn’t have survived by using all his defensive magic and techniques to mitigate the impact.
No matter how superior a Guardian’s body was in regenerative capacity, it was impossible to restore a body that had nearly been obliterated. If such a skill existed, wouldn’t it need to be S-rank or even SS-rank rather than A-rank?
In any case, Dohyun thought thus and genuinely felt that Rahel was no easy opponent.
For now, there was no way to defeat Rahel. With that judgment, he drew his sword again, but Rahel, apparently thinking similarly, lowered her stance and charged toward him.
Boom.
As Rahel flew toward him at a speed nearly matching the sound of air being torn, the moment Dohyun raised his sword to block, he felt Analysis’s warning and tried to evade instead of defending, but perhaps due to the aftereffects of the explosion—
Just before Dohyun could dodge, a wave of venom sprayed from the peculiar holes in Rahel’s twin daggers. Thanks to Analysis’s warning, he managed to avoid most of it, but he couldn’t escape all the poison vapor.
Though Analysis had warned him beforehand, Dohyun, having inhaled a small amount of the poison vapor, frowned and retreated sharply, causing Rahel to laugh at the sight.
“Why don’t you try neutralizing the poison like you did the explosion?”
At Rahel’s mocking voice, Dohyun felt troubled and attempted to exert the Guardian’s body more forcefully, but Analysis stopped him. The Guardian’s body was ultimately a skill that heightened regeneration by increasing metabolism.
In other words, I hesitated at Analysis’s warning that using it when poison had already infiltrated my bloodstream would only accelerate the toxin’s spread through my body rather than heal it.
[Analyzing Rachel Lagariell’s Virulent Toxin.]
[Neutralizing the poison interpreted through skill Virulent Toxin [A].]
[Escaping the poison’s effects.]
“…?”
Dohyun examined the message with an expression of disbelief, then checked his own body, yet felt nothing amiss. Just as I wondered what on earth was happening, my helpful Analysis provided the answer.
[Using skill Virulent Toxin [A], an antidote has been created.]
They say poison, when used properly, can become medicine.
Was this what they meant?
Realizing this, Dohyun watched Rachel smirk at him and responded with an equally mocking smile.
“You know what they call that? Compatibility.”
