Skill Devouring Up to Floor 666 Episode 186

186. Secret Proposal

[Be, Beriak is dead?]

Beriak’s soul shattered into pieces and disappeared.

Only the black armor fell empty to the floor.

The one said to be the strongest among the administrators had been annihilated by human hands.

[Th, this is impossible…]

While Hasaksios was in shock, I approached the spot where Beriak had vanished.

The remaining Terra was naturally absorbed into my body.

[You have absorbed Terra ‘82,859’.]

When I opened my status window.

The ridiculous figure of 140,000 Terra was written there.

All my stats had also exceeded 150,000.

‘Abysalon only gave me about 40,000, but this guy gave me 80,000.’

Was it because I killed him without even fighting properly?

Abysalon was 40,000, but Beriak was twice that amount.

As expected of one said to be the strongest in combat, he seemed to have quite a lot of remaining Terra.

‘At this rate, the other administrators would be at a similar level.’

If there are about 30 administrators and I kill them all?

Even with rough calculations, it seems like I’d easily surpass 1 million Terra.

[To annihilate Beriak after Abysalon… You really are a monster…]

Hasaksios looked at me and muttered in disbelief.

His eyes were filled with terror.

“It’s okay. I won’t kill you.”

[Re, really…?]

“Yeah. I’m actually grateful to you, you know? Thanks to the information you gave me, I was able to stop the Earth invasion and even catch Beriak as a bonus.”

As I approached with a grin, Hasaksios stepped back.

[Why, why are you approaching me?]

“Then why are you backing away?”

Seeing Hasaksios’s wavering eyes, I was certain.

‘He’s already lost the will to fight.’

Having seen two administrators annihilated, it was understandable that he was so frightened.

‘In that case…’

I couldn’t help but take advantage of this situation.

“Are you afraid of me?”

[…]

“Don’t worry. As I said earlier, I have no intention of killing you.”

[Th, that’s a relief…]

“However.”

I deliberately emanated killing intent as I glared at him.

“It depends on how you act from now on.”

[Wh-what do I need to do?]

That statement confirmed it for me.

Hasaksios would now do whatever I told him to do.

“What I’m asking for is simple. Go back to the Administrators and play dumb.”

[Huh? Play dumb?]

“Don’t tell anyone that Beriak is dead. If anyone asks, pretend you don’t know anything. It’ll be troublesome if other Administrators find out. Got it?”

[Th-that’s…]

As I continued glaring at him, Hasaksios had no choice but to nod.

[I-I understand. I’ll do that.]

“And… I have a proposal to make.”

[A proposal?]

I made my proposal to him in a secretive voice.

Hasaksios, who had been startled upon hearing it, stiffened his tentacles.

“How about it. It’s a good proposal, isn’t it?”

[Uh… umm…]

“You must want it too, right?”

Hasaksios’s deliberation didn’t last long.

[I’ll… accept the proposal.]

“Good thinking.”

With those words, I deactivated Balance Gap.

Left alone, Hasaksios stared blankly at Beriak’s corpse.

‘Is this… really happening?’

Beriak, who was said to be the strongest among the Administrators, had been beheaded and killed in just a few minutes.

And so futilely at that.

‘Should I tell the other Administrators about this?’

He had said he wouldn’t tell the Demigod, but that was only words spoken out of fear.

Promises could always be broken.

Though Hasaksios was troubled, he soon shook his head.

‘No. Nothing good will come from telling them.’

If he told them Beriak was dead?

The Administrators would panic.

They would feel terror at the fact that the strongest had died, and would become divided through mutual suspicion.

‘Most importantly, there’s no Administrator here who can defeat the Demigod, is there?’

There was no Administrator stronger than Beriak.

That meant no one could stop the Demigod.

‘Keeping my mouth shut is the best strategy.’

Most importantly, the proposal he had made at the end.

For that sake…

‘It’s not a bad proposal for me either.’

Hasaksios made his decision.

To do as Lee Tae Seong said.

Returning to Earth, I wore a satisfied smile.

‘A coward like Hasaksios would never open his mouth.’

Telling them about Beriak’s death would only be a loss for him.

They would investigate how he died and where he died, and eventually it would be revealed that he died in Hasaksios’s dwelling.

Who would the Administrators suspect then?

‘If he carelessly runs his mouth, he might be suspected of being an accomplice.’

Most importantly, I had thrown him a sweet proposal, so Hasaksios wouldn’t betray me.

‘I’ve grasped the level of the Administrators.’

Having killed two of the so-called strongest Administrators, I wasn’t afraid of anyone anymore.

Moreover, I had obtained Terra and was now even stronger than before.

‘I can just ignore the Administrators and proceed with the conquest.’

The time had come to completely end this damn Labyrinth.

[You have entered Labyrinth Underground 620th Floor.]

《Type: Trap》

《Condition: Alone without help from others》

《Mission: Find the exit.》

[You cannot leave until you clear the mission.]

The 620th Floor was a Trap Mission.

I had been using Clear Mind Like Still Water to memorize paths and find my way out, but that didn’t mean I could avoid traps.

‘From here on, every path has traps installed.’

Spears shooting up from the floor, rocks falling from the ceiling, arrows fired from the walls.

All sorts of traps were lying in wait, but.

‘It’s meaningless.’

One Time Stop and everything came to a halt.

With all the traps frozen in place, I leisurely walked to the exit.

[You have cleared Labyrinth Underground 620th Floor!]

It was too easy.

[You have cleared Labyrinth Underground 621st Floor!]

[You have cleared Labyrinth Underground 622nd Floor!]

[You have cleared Labyrinth Underground 623rd Floor!]

…

…

…

The Trap Missions continued until the 629th Floor.

I cleared them all using the same method.

After clearing up to the 629th Floor, the final Trap Mission.

[You have entered Labyrinth Underground 630th Floor.]

《Type: Raid》

《Condition: None》

《Mission: Defeat 1 Cerberus.》

[You cannot leave until you clear the mission.]

I proceeded directly to the Raid Mission.

“Graaaah!”

Hell’s Gatekeeper with three heads breathing blue flames had an intimidating presence just from its appearance, but.

Crrrrrack!

As soon as it appeared, its heads got tangled with each other and its neck snapped, killing it.

It was truly a quick exit.

‘With my stats being ridiculously high, the power of Telekinesis is beyond imagination.’

Most enemies could be finished with just a flick of my finger.

At this level, I could probably collapse an apartment building with one finger.

Though I shouldn’t do that.

[You have cleared Labyrinth Underground 630th Floor!]

[You have cleared Labyrinth Underground 631st Floor!]

[You have cleared Labyrinth Underground 632nd Floor!]

…

…

…

‘Since I even killed an Administrator, bosses are nothing.’

After killing Beriak, everything became too easy.

No matter how strong a boss appeared, one hit was enough.

[You have cleared Labyrinth Underground 639th Floor!]

I cleared up to the 639th Floor in an instant and moved to the next floor.

[You have entered Labyrinth Underground 640th Floor.]

《Type: Annihilation》

《Condition: Using only skills》

《Mission: Defeat 200 Dullahans.》

[You cannot leave until you clear the mission.]

Floors 640-649 were Annihilation Missions.

From here on, there’s a condition that you can only use skills.

However.

‘It might be tricky for someone else, but not for me.’

Defeating them using only skills wasn’t particularly difficult.

Unlike others who only had about five or six skills at most, I had skills everywhere, and Telekinesis also fell under the category of skills.

Splat! Splat!

The head of the Dullahan that encountered me bursts like a balloon.

I merely flicked my finger.

[Dullahan Defeated 200/200]

[You have cleared Labyrinth Underground 640th Floor!]

[As a reward for clearing Floor 640, you receive ‘Essence of Ridiculous Strength’.]

My strength increased by 1,000 in an instant.

From Floor 640 onwards, stat rewards increase dramatically.

The modifier also changed from ‘Terrifying’ to ‘Ridiculous’.

[As a first clear reward for Floor 640, you receive ‘Essence of Ridiculous Strength’.]

Let me correct that.

That’s a 2,000 strength increase total.

‘2,000 strength from clearing one floor. That’s incredible, right?’

Though I said it was incredible, I didn’t feel much excitement.

Before regression, it took me two days just to defeat 200 Dullahans, and I was amazed by the tremendous stat reward of 2,000…

‘Is it because I already exceeded 150,000 stats with Terra? I don’t feel much stronger than expected.’

After getting a taste of those Golden Goblins called Administrators, these rewards feel insignificant.

‘I need to quickly clear the Labyrinth and deal with the Administrators too.’

But first, I should receive sponsorship.

I need to secure the final sponsorship from the Three Gods.
