Chapter 110
#Episode 110
After putting aside my precious experience and seeing my parents off, I finally managed to calm my heart.
Senior patted my shoulder and sent my parents’ souls into the rainbow above the Heavenly Realm.
“With this, the peaceful afterlife you wanted for them has been achieved. Now stop worrying about it.”
“…Thank you.”
After seeing my parents off, I felt my heart had become even more resolute.
I felt like I could do anything now, or rather, I strongly felt like I should do something.
Seeing my eyes burning with determination, Senior instead grabbed my shoulders and shook me.
“Don’t think strange thoughts and just go watch the Lord’s War with the ticket I gave you. You know I didn’t give it to you just for sightseeing, right?”
“I should at least watch that.”
“Right, it’ll be helpful if you go watch it with your teammates too. Maybe there’ll be something worth learning.”
With those words, Senior kicked me out.
As they say, human problems are forgotten through human company – all my teammates were looking at me with worried eyes.
“…Your stares are making me uncomfortable.”
“H-he’s awake!!”
“Really!? This isn’t a hallucination!? You’re not lying!?”
“Is this a hallucination? Hyun-soo, when you were in middle school watching bunny girl porn and I caught you…”
“Kyaaaah, shut your mouth!”
“Ooooh! That’s right! It’s really our Hyun-soo!”
My teammates, who saw me wake up after 10 days, were so boisterous that they instantly washed away the sadness.
It seemed like everyone had suffered mentally while I was unconscious.
“I already examined you, but you don’t have any pain anywhere, do you?”
Hyeon-cheol, one of the National Assembly members, put down his stethoscope after examining my body directly.
Only after confirming my body was safe multiple times with Hyeon-i’s AI medical equipment could I finally leave the hospital bed.
“That’s enough, everyone stop making a fuss and gather around. I have something to say.”
Hyeon-cheol tactfully left, and my teammates gathered.
When I took out the golden ticket from my chest and showed it, my teammates’ eyes sparkled.
“What’s that? Some kind of ticket?”
“Are we going to see a circus or something? It’s really fancy.”
“It’s a Lord’s War viewing ticket. Senior gave it to me.”
“Senior… you mean that predecessor?”
“Yes.”
At the mention that Senior gave it, my teammates’ eyes lit up brightly.
“He said it’s VIP seating so we can watch from the best spot. Since they might become our enemies, let’s observe them in advance.”
“When is it? Don’t tell me we’re late?”
“He said it’s in 3 days, so we have time. Let’s loosen up our bodies in the meantime. I’ve been lying down for 10 days and I’m itching to death.”
“Then let’s eat first before talking. You barely survived on IV drips – you almost starved to death.”
Grumble.
I had forgotten due to the dopamine, but I was really hungry enough that my stomach was touching my back.
“Let’s eat first and then talk.”
“Right, we’re hungry too.”
* * *
The Apex Guild Training Grounds, moved to the 10th basement floor, were covered with materials I’d never seen before.
This time, as Hyeon-i awakened, the entire city was upgraded to another level.
The effect was certain, considering Hyeon-i personally said to come see if we wanted to.
“It’ll be much rougher than usual, prepare to die.”
Today’s training was our usual group combat.
A battle where all my teammates face me alone.
A real combat-style battle where humans fight until incapacitation, and summons fight considering actual death.
Since neither my teammates nor I had found any better training method, this was a method I devised myself.
Counting began on the massive screen above.
This time, Hyeon-i, rarely armed with mechanical devices, also participated.
Even though I heard this entire space was Hyeon-i’s fortress, I gladly accepted the battle.
My win rate so far was 99%.
I won all but once.
That one time was actually when Rey got too immersed and I let him win after he tried to cut me down while throwing away his own life.
Since it was virtually an undefeated streak with no real defeats, everyone was fired up with fighting spirit.
“This time will be different.”
“Hyeon-i is here, and I’ve gotten stronger too.”
“Well then, let’s see your skills.”

1.
The moment it started, the surrounding environment changed dramatically.
Inside the massive colosseum, there was nowhere to run.
As soon as it began, Yeo-ul, Rey, and Kang Cheol-u Hunter launched an all-directional assault.
Jinu, hidden in Kang Cheol-u Hunter’s shadow, waited for a surprise attack while Baek Do-hyeon Hunter in the rear began shooting light restraining attacks by commanding spirits.
I strongly felt they were going all out from the start.
Even for me, having accumulated experience through countless battles, this fight was noticeably high in difficulty.
Their abilities hadn’t grown stronger, but it was clear they had thoroughly filled the gaps in their combat that had been empty during our time together.
It was proof that they hadn’t neglected their training even while I was unconscious.
“Good, excellent!”
But that only applied to ordinary opponents.
I pushed back their frontal assault with pure force against force.
The new skill I gained from reaching level 100 played the biggest role.
The level 100 skill was a passive skill that was constantly active.
It’s a different skill from the Black Fortress I usually use.
This shows me much deeper information about souls in my vision.
If they’re beings of lower rank, I can clearly read not only information about their souls but even what they’re thinking.
That’s why, though I didn’t mention it, I could clearly see my companions’ thoughts right now.
I countered every single incoming attack without missing a single one.
Hyeon-i, armed with cutting-edge weapons, watched this intently and frowned.
Something flowed through the earphones in everyone’s ears.
Those who had been engaging in combat based on overwhelming firepower and coordination suddenly flinched and began glaring at me.
Then they suddenly began mixing feints and real attacks.
The completely changed attack pattern from before pushed me back about two steps.
Kim Yeo-ul’s fist seemed like it would come, but a kick flew instead, and Rey’s sword cut through the line of death force.
Spirits that constantly interfered with me tried to grab my ankles, and above all, Jinu continuing his barrage of projectiles from the darkness was extremely troublesome.
But when I concentrated a bit more, I could distinguish even those feints from real attacks, so I manifested my power to gradually bring this to an end.
“To think you’ve all grown to this extent, I’m truly indescribably happy!”
This is sincere.
It seems like it would be fine to use slightly stronger techniques now.
Black Fortress.
For the first time, I used the Domain of the Lord on all my companions.
As the Black Fortress enveloped us, Hyeon-i began manipulating space.
Ten iron cubes that had been behind me appeared and tried to manipulate reality to dispel the Black Fortress and cover it with reality.
But would the Domain of the Lord be called the Domain of the Lord for nothing?
I gave him some leeway with the attitude of “let’s see if you can do it,” but naturally, Hyeon-i’s cubes couldn’t overturn reality.
Instead, the Grim Reapers that appeared sliced through all the cubes and began continuing their attack.
As an overwhelming amount of slashing attacks began pouring down, Kang Cheol-u Hunter’s barrier exploded into action.
Indeed, the awakened Kang Cheol-u’s barrier was powerful.
Its surprisingly overwhelming defensive power easily blocked even the Grim Reapers’ slashing attacks.
Of course, that’s assuming I would just stand still during that time.
I summoned a giant guillotine above Kang Cheol-u Hunter’s barrier.
Skulls were carved into the blade, and the saw teeth began rotating like a chainsaw.
The guillotine blade with enormous mass crashed into Kang Cheol-u Hunter’s barrier as if pronouncing an execution.
Crack-! Crrrrrack!
It wasn’t an attack that ended in one strike, but infinite attacks poured down to grind away the barrier itself.
Honestly, it held up better than expected, which was surprising.
‘Let’s see how long you can hold out?’
I had only intended to give them a taste of the domain, but this made me change my mind again.
Black chains sharpened like spear tips at their ends began pouring down.
After thousands of chains bounced off for a while, Kang Cheol-u Hunter, who couldn’t hold out any longer, finally released his barrier.
At the same time, Jinu’s carpet bombing began.
The Black Fortress is strictly a space of darkness.
While it’s a place that’s virtually invincible for me, it was also like a buff that enhanced abilities for Jinu, who possessed the Dark Lord skill.
Slashing attacks forged from darkness began pouring down like crazy.
Of course, not even one of those slashing attacks and dark blades managed to graze my body.
As Jinu appeared, I had already created a clone with death force in advance and quietly appeared behind Baek Do-hyeon Hunter, holding my breath.
Since Baek Do-hyeon Hunter was the most important target, all the companions were surrounding and protecting her.
Just as my blade was about to pierce through her heart.
“I knew you’d do that!”
Hyeon-i’s grenade was thrown at me.
It seemed to be a special grenade that flew like a drone and stuck firmly to my heart.
Bzzzzt-!
Hyeon-i manipulated the grenade that I thought would explode.
Then it suddenly bound me and began pouring out an enormous amount of electrical current like crazy.
If it had been an ordinary person, their entire body would have turned to black ash and died long ago from this level of electricity, but unfortunately, their opponent was me.
For me, who always wraps my entire body in death force, it was impossible to take damage from just this much electricity, not even being the god of lightning.
Above all, this attack was something I let hit me because I was curious about how Hyeon-i would strategize against me.
It seems he has quite a lot of weapons related to this kind of person-to-person combat.
But the games end here.
Grim Reapers that had naturally appeared at some point had placed their scythes at every companion’s neck.
“Shall we continue?”
My companions, who thought they had gained the upper hand, flinched in surprise.
This was because all the Grim Reapers they had seen so far only appeared from the walls of the Black Fortress.
Since this was the first time one had appeared without any warning signs, everyone was flustered and couldn’t move carelessly.
“…Damn it, we’re screwed.”
Hunter Baek Do-hyeon, who was quickest to assess the situation, raised both hands first.
After Hunter Baek Do-hyeon, who was in charge of firepower, surrendered, his companions followed suit one after another, and eventually even Hyeon-i let out a deep sigh.
“No matter how you look at it, those aren’t the movements of someone who just woke up after ten days…”
“I told you, that kind of thing doesn’t matter to him.”
“Still, I didn’t know he’d be at such a monstrous level.”
I released my domain and patted everyone on the shoulder in admiration.
Actually, this confrontation was half-serious even for me.
Now my companions’ coordination was truly near perfect.
The combined attacks of Rey and Yeo-ul, which were already smooth, were at a beautiful level, and the firepower that Hunter Baek Do-hyeon and Jinu produced was dizzying.
Above all, Hunter Kang Cheol-u who protected all of this, and Hyeon-i’s situational awareness ability to create variables and give instructions according to circumstances were extremely excellent.
“At this level, I wouldn’t worry even if they went to the Lord’s War without me, right?”
Actually, the key in the Lord’s War is to hide one’s power as much as possible.
If my companions’ strength was at this level, there seemed to be no major problems.
“Now then, shall we start the second round?”
“…What?”
“Se, second round?”
“…I think something urgent just came up.”
“Damn it, this thing won’t open!?”
The Black Fortress lets you enter as you please, but leaving is another matter.
My companions’ screams echoed like a harmony.
