Chapter 141
The Last of Hell (2)
20th Floor.
Also known as [Monster Plains].
An endless plain filled with monsters.
At least 2,000 of them.
The condition here is simple.
‘Kill them all.’
The problem is that their numbers never decrease.
When one falls, another immediately takes its place.
Always 2,000.
Never dropping below that number.
That’s why many Hunters despaired at this place.
“No… I can’t hold on anymore!”
“There’s no end, no end!”
A place where Hunters who barely managed to overcome the Dark Soul Sector came up with hope, only to despair again.
Ogres strike down from all sides, wolf packs tear at flanks, and goblin archers rain down arrows.
Formations crumble.
Health gets whittled away.
Potions run out.
Then.
“Don’t give up.”
A calm voice rang out.
Light spreads.
Whoooosh-
A massive beam of light.
No, a massive wave of light.
It envelops the entire Staircase.
“Wh-what is this!”
“My health is recovering!”
「Sanctuary」 is declared.
「Physical Regression」 activates.
“M-my wounds…”
Wounds heal.
“M-my arm… my arm…!”
Severed arms regrow.
The targets are a full hundred Hunters.
Aoooooh-!
Groooooh-!
The monsters’ movements become sluggish.
Their stats decrease.
“I’m recovering…!”
“I don’t know what this is… but this is our chance!”
“Now! Push forward!”
The crumbled formation reorganizes.
Their endurance time increases.
Little by little, but surely.
The tide of battle begins to turn.
Lee Seo-yeon steadied her breathing and adjusted her mana.
Level 73.
S-rank Supporter.
Not just simple support, but battlefield reorganization level.
The moment she intervened.
Defeat was postponed.
‘This should be enough, right?’
Just as she was catching her breath.
[Level Up!]
Lee Seo-yeon’s gaze paused for a moment.
The monsters here have low experience efficiency.
This isn’t a place that gives enough experience to level up, is it?
[Experience Gained!]
[Experience Gained!]
“…?”
The notifications won’t stop.
This doesn’t match the battlefield situation.
This is.
This isn’t experience generated from here.
“Guild leader…?”
Even though they’re separated in different places, they’re still in the same party.
Kim Jun must be conquering somewhere.
Just like always…
[Experience Gained!]
[Level Up!]
[Experience Gained!]
[Level Up!]
.
.
.
“…?????”
The numbers are rising like crazy.
Mana rapidly amplifies within her body.
Lee Seo-yeon senses something strange.
There have been many times like this before.
But there’s never been this many notifications appearing all at once.
“…Is someone hunting a boss?”
No.
If it were a single target, the experience gain notification would only appear once, right?
[Experience Gained!]
[Level Up!]
[Experience Gained!]
[Level Up!]
.
.
.
“What the hell is this…”
Her level rises consecutively.
75.
76.
77.
And.
[Level Up!]
With the final notification.
Lee Seo-yeon’s level is.
“Ei, eighty??!?
Lee Seo-yeon’s breath stops for a moment.
A whopping 80.
Level 80 in an instant.
Even the notifications she thought had stopped.
[Experience Gained!]
[Experience Gained!]
It began rising again.
“Guild Leader… what in the world is this…”
This level of experience explosion.
Numbers that only party members could share.
Someone.
No.
A Person.
Was clearing monsters on an unbelievable scale.
Lee Seo-yeon raised her head.
Toward Hell.
Toward the unseen, deepest depths.
“…He’s started again. Please, come back safely…”
*
91st Floor.
The outer First Defense Line and Outer Wall of Infernos Regia, Citadel of Hell.
This place right now.
Is not a battlefield.
It’s a scorched wasteland.
Kwaaaaaaaa—!!
Part of the upper City Wall evaporates entirely.
The magically reinforced black iron Fortress Tower melts down, flowing like red lava.
The ground is already cracked.
Blackened Scorched Lands.
Smoke.
The smell of burning.
And.
In the sky above.
Dark red wings spread wide.
Kim Jun.
On the left, Azure Dragon, Nyong Nyong.
On the right, Golden Dragon, Yongyong.
The three beings occupied the sky in triangular formation.
To the demon Soldiers looking up from the Surface.
It looked like a fighter squadron had flown over an ancient Castle.
The entire sky was the enemy.
“Prepare!”
“Kill them all!”
Drrrrrr-
The magic artillery rotated.
But it was too late.
Kim Jun held his sword horizontally.
Red heat condensed at the blade’s tip.
Black magic coiled around it like a spiral.
“Dis-appear.”
「Infernal Dragon Breath A」.
A breath that fused dragon flames with demonic darkness.
From the tip of Kim Jun’s 「Dragon Eater」.
Wooooong-
Energy gathered to a single point.
Kwaaaaaaaaaa—!!
are released all at once.
What erupted from the sword tip was not simple sword energy.
A straight line of ultra-high heat mana that scraped the ground as it advanced.
The heavy infantry formation was split entirely in half.
Penetrating all the way to the rear.
Mana shields melted.
Artillery batteries exploded.
Kwarrrrr—
Secondary explosion.
Third explosion.
The outer formation is deleted in a single line.
[Experience gained!]
[Experience gained!]
[Item Acquired! – Hellsteel Greatsword]
[Item Acquired! – Demon Army Officer Breastplate]
[Item Acquired! – Red Legion Insignia]
Notification windows rapidly pop up.
At the same time.
Whoooooosh—!!
Nyong-nyong.
A breath mixed with blue flashes sweeps away the top of the castle wall.
Four magical artillery units simultaneously evaporate.
The commander-level demon is swallowed whole.
Hey.
Grumble—!!
Yong-yong.
A golden breath traces a semicircle.
The building’s roof is flying away.
The defensive line is breaking.
The siege equipment explodes one after another.
The ground is already a bombing zone.
[Experience gained!]
[Item Acquired! – Infernal Army Mace]
[Item Acquired! – Corrupted Spear]
[Item Acquired! – Magic Core Fragment]
[Item Acquired! – Holy City Guard Shield]
Thousands of winged demons take flight.
As if trying to regain air superiority.
“Kill those two dragons first!”
Kim Jun lightly flicked his fingertip.
Snap-
“Where do you think you’re going after my Nyong Nyong and Yong-yong.”
That light wave tore through the air.
Zzerjjeok-!
The demons floating in the air exploded simultaneously.
The sky had completely fallen.
On the Surface.
Belphegor’s Legion advanced.
Stomp stomp stomp stomp-!
Precisely.
They burrowed through the collapsed City Wall.
“How bothersome, so bothersome. Just kill them all yourselves.”
Zzajjak-!
Sizzle-!
Crack-
Belphegor and his legion advancing while yawning.
Leading at the front, carving a path.
“To summon me against these damn vermin…”
Satan also follows behind Belphegor.
And in front of such Satan.
“You cannot pass any further.”
A fellow who looked quite high-ranking appeared.
Holding a shield the size of an adult male in one hand, thrusting forward a spear as large as a building.
“What is this, you damn mongrel vermin trash. How dare you block my path? Should I chew your guts to pieces and kill you? No, that’s not right. For a bastard like you, even that’s a luxury. Just get lost.”
Crack-!
Splat-
With Satan’s light gesture, the commander’s head is crushed and falls to the ground.
The legion’s command structure collapses.
[Experience gained!]
[Item acquired! – Infernal Army Commander’s Helmet]
[Item acquired! – Abyssal Magic Stone]
[Item acquired! – Red Chain Mail]
In the sky above.
On Nyong Nyong’s back.
Andras lowers his body.
“Master!”
Kim Jun nods his head.
The next moment.
Andras leaps down.
Falling.
Accelerating.
His body rapidly expands in mid-air.
“「Gigantification」.”
Rumble rumble rumble…
His body swells to a size rivaling the fortress tower.
Collision with the ground.
“All of you get trampled to death! Kihahahahahahahaha!”
Kwaaaaaaaang—!!!
An earthquake erupts.
Cracks spread across the floor inside Outer Wall 1.
The magical reinforcement lines are severed.
Andras slams both hands down on the ground.
Crack—!
The second impact.
The city wall collapses.
The defense tower falls.
The remaining forces are crushed to death.
[Experience gained!]
[Experience gained!]
[Item acquired! – Giant Crushing Axe]
[Item acquired! – Infernal Guard Full Plate]
Kim Jun soars back into the sky.
It’s not over yet.
Outer Defense Line 2.
In other words, the 92nd floor.
Higher walls.
More concentrated forces.
The magical artillery batteries charge simultaneously.
Rumble-
Kim Jun steadies his breathing.
Mana gathers at the sword tip once more.
This time it’s not singular.
It splits into three directions.
“Let’s go.”
Nyong Nyong.
Yongyong.
Simultaneous launch.
“Nyong-yong Nyong-yong combined breath!”
“Nyo, Nyong-yong Nyong-yong combined breath…!”
Kim Jun, Azure Dragon, Golden Dragon’s.
Triple breath.
Kwaaaaaaaa—!!!
The entire city gate is blown away.
Penetrating through the buildings behind it.
Chain explosions.
Siege weapons exploding in reverse.
Outer Defense Line 2 collapses.
[Experience gained!]
[Level up!]
[Item acquired! – Infernus Guard’s Seal]
[Item acquired! – Hell General’s Shoulder Guard]
[Item acquired! – Red Heart Crystal]
[Item acquired! – Fortress Defense Force Command Baton]
The notification windows don’t stop.
Back to the surface.
Belphegor and Satan step directly to the front.
「Gluttony」 and 「Wrath」.
The authorities of two Grand Demons overlap.
“Hi, the power!”
All strength is absorbed by Belphegor and his legion.
“Graaaaaaaa-!!”
Everything burns in the flames of wrath.
The last defense line that was resisting splits apart.
Battle formation collapse.
Flight.
Surrender.
Or evaporation.
Outer Regions 1 and 2.
Complete devastation.
Flutter-
Kim Jun slowly lowered his altitude from the sky.
He looks down below.
The city walls had collapsed into rubble, the barracks were burning, and the outer roads were split apart.
And what filled the space above it all.
Spoils of war.
Equipment glinting between broken armor pieces.
Weapons embedded with magic stones.
Seals dropped by commander-level demons.
Crystals condensed with mana.
Where battle has passed, there’s always something left behind.
Blood.
And money.
“Myamyaaaong!”
A small shadow dropped from the air.
Meong Meong.
As soon as it landed on two feet.
“Myaaaaa-!”
It opened its cute little mouth so wide it looked like it might tear.
The next moment.
“Huaaaaap-!”
The spoils of war scattered on the ground dispersed like sand and floated into the air.
Weapons.
Armor.
Magic stones.
Crystals.
Everything that had been buried in the debris.
Warrrrr-
They were sucked in like a whirlpool.
As if a vacuum cleaner had been turned on.
Hundreds of items disappeared in an instant.
[Calculating items…]
[Acquired items are being stored in the 「Subspace Pouch」!]
Only debris remained.
Kim Jun chuckled.
“As fast as always.”
“Myaong~.”
Meong Meong raised its tail and puffed out its chest proudly.
The amount would have taken several hours to collect one by one.
But thanks to Meong Meong.
It took only a few seconds to sweep up all the spoils from the battlefield.
“Good job. But it’s dangerous, so go back inside for now.”
“Myaaong~”
Of course, ‘pets’ as beings aren’t affected by physical attacks.
But he couldn’t leave such a cute creature in a place like this.
[91st Floor cleared!]
[92nd Floor cleared!]
Kim Jun surveyed the burning outskirts once more.
Outer Regions 1 and 2 were already occupied by Belphegor and Satan’s legions.
What remained was the inner area.
The massive road leading to the City Center revealed itself through the smoke.
Thunk-
Kim Jun slung his sword over his shoulder.
“Should finish this today, right?”
93rd Floor.
He set out toward the front of Outer Wall 3.
“Good! This Lord Andras will trample them all to death! Belphegor, Satan! You juniors should follow behind this senior!”
“Don’t talk to me, it’s annoying…”
“This lowly mongrel vermin dares to open its mouth again. I’ll crush your limbs first, not the enemies…”
