After Ten Millennia in Hell

Chapter 318 - Oppa~

“You want to make me a weapon?” Cha Yeon-Joo asked with her eyes open wide.

She was more confused than thankful for the unexpected offer.

“Why so out of the blue?”

“Well, I was thinking about it, and...” Oh Kang-Woo slurred.

He had thought about many candidates such as Balrog, Halcyon, Echidna and Kim Si-Hun. However, Balrog already had his Overlord Armor, while Si-Hun had the holy sword Ludwig. Halcyon’s style of fighting did not require weapons, and Echidna need not even be mentioned.

‘The only ones left are Tian Wuchen and Cha Yeon-Joo.’

Kang-Woo owed Yeon-Joo more, and was also closer to her than Wuchen. As the deciding factor, Yeon-Joo had participated in the last operation.

“... I just thought it’s best that you have it,” Kang-Woo said as he raised Behemoth’s horn fragment in his hand.

Yeon-Joo’s eyes widened, and she averted her gaze as her cheeks flushed red.

“R-Really?”

She also knew how powerful the horn of the monster known as Behemoth was since she had witnessed the gigantic bull covered in black flames charging while decimating everything in his path.

“Yeah. You should be the one to use it,” Kang-Woo stated.

“Ahem. If you say so, I’ll use it.”

Yeon-Joo touched Behemoth’s horn fragment while humming in a good mood. Just lightly touching was enough to send sparks up her hand; she could feel the immense power emanating from the horn.

“But are you sure you’ll be able to process this thing? My weapon is a bit... special,” Yeon-Joo asked in worry.

Kang-Woo nodded while smirking. “Yeah, it’s more than possible.”

Yeon-Joo’s weapon was chains with sharp thorns on them.

‘The fragment is a bit too small to make chains from scratch, but...’

He could imbue his demonic energy in the fragment and coat the chains with it.

“First, take out all of your chains,” Kang-Woo said.

“Okay.”

Yeon-Joo extended both of her hands out and slightly twisted her wrists.

Clatter.

Chains poured down from the bracelets on her wrists. Kang-Woo stared at her wrists in fascination.

“Is that also one of the bracelets’ functions?” Kang-Woo asked.

“No, this is one of my Traits. I can store chains in an equipment of my choosing and use them freely.”

“Aha,” Kang-Woo expressed, and lightly grabbed her wrists.

“Wh-What are you doing?” Yeon-Joo asked, her eyes sharp.

“Stay still.”

Kang-Woo narrowed his eyes and read the flow of Yeon-Joo’s mana.

‘She has better control of it than I’d thought.’

He had imagined her mana flow to be rampant like her beast-like personality, but it was far more tranquil than he had expected.

‘Using this mana flow as the base...’

Kang-Woo mapped out a design of her weapon in his head. This was his first time creating a weapon for someone else, but the fundamental technique itself was similar.

‘I’ll make it more comfortable and stronger.’

Weapons just needed to be easy to use and powerful; adding complex and difficult-to-use functions to them was pointless. Kang-Woo took Yeon-Joo’s hands and slowly massaged them.

“Wh-What the hell are you doing, y-you son of a bitch?!” Yeon-Joo shouted with her cheeks as red as her hair.

It was a natural response, since the one who had said that he would make her a weapon was suddenly taking her hands and massaging them.

“I told you to stay still,” Kang-Woo stated.

“Y-You...!”

Kang-Woo ignored Yeon-Joo’s resistance and observed her hands.

‘The weapon should be a bit lighter... Since she controls the chains using mana instead of strength, I should raise its mana sensitivity as high as possible.’

He more or less had completed the design in his head. Kang-Woo extended his hand toward the pile of chains, and closed his eyes with Behemoth’s horn fragment in his other hand.

Fwoooom!!

Great amounts of energy moved. The horn fragment that contained god-killing powers melted down by yellow flames.

‘Authority of Blaze.’

Mammon’s Authority was useful in many ways. Behemoth’s horn fragment glowed red and melted, covering Yeon-Joo’s chains.

Yeon-Joo blankly stared at Kang-Woo, who was making her weapon under immense concentration. She bit her lip as her expression showed a hint of anger, but it soon grew softer, and she went back to staring blankly at him.

“All done.”

“... Huh?”

“I said it’s done.”

“O-Okay.” Yeon-Joo nodded while coughing.

Moments later, her eyes widened due to the message window that had popped up in front of her.

“What is it?” Kang-Woo asked.

“U-Uhmm...” Yeon-Joo stuttered. “The equipment grade... rose from Legendary to Mythic.”

“Mythic?”

Kang-Woo frowned.

‘I guess Transcendent was pushing it.’

It would have been a different story if the chains had been made purely out of Behemoth’s horn, but its quality fell since it had only been made from a fragment.

“That’s a shame,” Kang-Woo expressed.

“A-A shame? Are you insane? This is of the highest grade even among Mythic-grade equipment! M-My god. Just from coating it with a horn fragment...”

Yeon-Joo read through the message window that Kang-Woo couldn’t see over and over again. Kang-Woo smirked.

‘Just a fragment, huh?’

Such an expression did not suit a being like Behemoth.

‘I mean, I guess it is surprising, since all I did was coat the chains with the horn fragment.’

Even if the material was not Transcendent-grade, the god-killing powers infused within the horn would not have disappeared.

“C-Can I try using it?” Yeon-Joo asked.

“Of course. We didn’t meet all the way here for nothing.”

They had met in the mountains in the vicinity of Seoul that Kang-Woo frequently used to train so that Yeon-Joo could test out the power of her newly-made weapon.

“Alright.” Yeon-Joo nodded in excitement.

The mana flowing through the chains was on a whole other level compared to before; it was as if invisible wings had been added to them.

‘What the hell?’

Yeon-Joo’s eyes widened. She used the Trait that she had unlocked on her Tenth Awakening.

“Red Lotus, First Form.”

Thrash—! The chains moved.

***

“W-Wow,” Yeon-Joo expressed.

The scene before her eyes thrilled her. She had completely destroyed an entire mountain. She had reached a stage far higher than her previous self just from switching weapons.

“What the...”

“Do you like it?” Kang-Woo asked.

“I don’t just like it! This is insanely amazing!”

Yeon-Joo hugged Kang-Woo before she had realized it from the uncontrollable burst of emotion within her. Kang-Woo hugged her back.

“I hadn’t been able to use even the first form of Red Lotus properly, but I can perfectly use it up to the third form now! This is absolutely insane!”

Yeon-Joo burst into bright laughter. She was jumping up and down with Kang-Woo in her arms. And then...

“Kyaaaaaahh!”

She belatedly came back to her senses and pulled away from him while screaming. She wrapped her arms around herself and glared at Kang-Woo.

“Wh-Where do you think you’re touching?!”

She was overreacting all by herself.

“Calm down, woman,” Kang-Woo said while laughing from the absurdity. “Anyway, I’m relieved. You don’t feel any side effects, do you?”

“... Yeah, I’m completely fine.”

Yeon-Joo hugged the chains as if she was never willing to part with them. Kang-Woo nodded in satisfaction as he looked at the delighted Yeon-Joo.

‘I guess I made the right call to give it to Yeon-Joo.’

He couldn’t help but smile from seeing how happy she was.

“Hehehe,” Yeon-Joo giggled while hugging the chains.

Kang-Woo closed his mouth.

‘What’s happening?’

As he looked at how happy Yeon-Joo was, he felt an irresistible desire to tease her. He had never felt this way before, so even he was slightly surprised. However, his surging desire was pushing him to tease her. Kang-Woo did not resist the desire.

“I have a condition for making those chains for you,” Kang-Woo mentioned.

“What? What condition?” Yeon-Joo asked in surprise.

“From now on, you have to say Oppa~ with a cute pose whenever you address me.”

“What the fuck did you say?” Yeon-Joo grimaced.

Kang-Woo continued calmly, “If you don’t like it, give that back to me.”

“Y-You son of a bitch...!”

Yeon-Joo’s eyes set ablaze. She aggressively flung her chains at Kang-Woo.

Grab.

However, no matter how powerful her weapon had become, she was still no match for Kang-Woo. Kang-Woo easily grabbed the chains and smirked.

“What? You’re not gonna do it?”

“O-Of course not, you fucker!”

“Then I guess I’ll take these back.”

Kang-Woo yanked on the chains.

“Kyaaah!” Yeon-Joo was dragged along with the chains while screaming. “Y-You’re just joking, right? You’re actually not taking them away, are you?”

“No, I really am.”

“N-No!”

Yeon-Joo frantically hugged the chains. It would have been a different story if she hadn’t tasted the power of the chains, but since she had, she couldn’t give them up. Kang-Woo smiled wickedly.

“Then you know what you have to do, don’t you?”

“Y-You...!”

Yeon-Joo shook in rage. She glared at him in fury.

“So? What’ll it be?” Kang-Woo asked while snickering.

“Y-You fucking demon!”

“Yeah, I’m a demon.”

“Scumbag! Dipshit! Baldy! Pervert!”

“I’m not a baldy,” Kang-Woo retorted. That was the only one he couldn’t stand for. “It’s not hard, is it? Anyone else would’ve happily done it if it meant they could get their hands on a Mythic-grade weapon.”

Yeon-Joo kept her mouth shut. She trembled with her face pale and teary-eyed.

“Haaa, haaa...!”

She bit her lip while clenching her fists to the point that veins were popping out. She took a step back, put her palms on her cheeks, making a V sign, and winked.

“Oppa~”

Kang-Woo was shocked. Yeon-Joo’s voice sounded so cute that he couldn’t believe it had come from her.

Deathly silence fell.

“Pfft!!” Kang-Woo covered his mouth with one hand and crouched. “Kffp! Kahahaha!!”

He burst into laughter. He trembled while grabbing his stomach.

“Kahahahahahahah!!!”

Kang-Woo clenched his fists from the thrill. It had far surpassed his wildest expectations.

‘This is so fucking fun! Why hadn’t I done something so fun earlier?!’

He laughed to the point of shedding tears.

Yeon-Joo’s eyes lost their light.

Bash!

“Kurgh.”

Kang-Woo flew into the air after being smashed on the solar plexus, and rolled across the ground.

“... Let’s die.” Yeon-Joo staggered toward Kang-Woo. Her eyes that had lost all sense of life were terrifying. “Now that it’s come to this, let’s just die together.”

A lioness engulfed in madness charged at him.
