I Am The Anti-Mage

Chapter 56: The Godly Doctor

Whenever there was an intriguing fight, the Nullifier would take over Ji-woo’s emotions. And it would always prolong the battle even if he was powerful than the opponent by many folds and could end the fight faster.

That was why Ji-woo used the idea of provoking the Demon Apes, wanting to bet whether a two-on-one fight would take place or not. If that did not happen, it would bore Nullifier and put him in control of his emotions again.

Ji-woo’s bet was right on target. Now, he was in control of everything and decided to finish the battle as soon as possible. Also, his body was in an overheated state, not suitable for a long fight.

One had fallen, and the other was still alive.

Ukn’zal couldn’t believe what was happening. He knew Ji-woo was strong but didn’t expect to be able to kill Az’kal effortlessly.

‘Why does his aura…, cause an unprecedented fear in me?’

Ji-woo’s gaze caused Ukn’zal to feel suppression in his heart. He knew he had experienced this before.

Ukn’zal smiled while sweating profusely. He didn’t expect to meet someone as strong as some of the Commanders and Generals under the Great Warlock that he met before.

Ji-woo shot a confused look toward Ukn’zal that smiling out of nowhere.

Boom, Creak–

Ukn’zal made a huge slam into the land with his four hands, causing the ground to be torn apart slightly all the way to where Ji-woo was.

Ji-woo’s expression changed from bewilderment to surprise in just a second because of Ukn’zal’s sudden movement. He then moved one foot and stomped it onto the ground, stopping any further splits.

However, Ukn’zal had already appeared in front of Ji-woo and launched a punch. He shouted as loudly as he could while putting all his strength into the blow. Even the ground shattered in a two-armed motion aiming at Ji-woo.

Kaboom!

A large cloud of dust appeared, covering the surroundings. And then two entities were seen going to the sky, coming out of the dust cloud.

Ji-woo blocked the powerful blow with his right foot. Not allowing his opponent to attack him further, he rammed his head into Ukn’zal, followed by a left leg kick to the neck.

Ukn’zal bounced to the ground at a fast speed.

Ji-woo, who was still in the air, moved his right hand that held the tattered short sword. He was holding the hilt of the weapon tightly. And he threw it at the Demon Ape with such force that it caused a shockwave.

Boom, Kacha!

Ukn’zal crashed to the ground with a bang. And it looked like he was able to withstand the follow-up short sword aimed at his head. Even though both edges of the weapon were blunt, the tip was still sharp.

Anyhow, Ukn’zal paid a heavy price to block the attack. His four hands get pierced by the short sword. And it nearly thrust his throat. His current state was too weak to move his hands and remove the short sword even though the weapon was broken and cracked.

Even if it was for a while, fighting Ji-woo was quite taxing for the Demon Ape. Especially his vigor, which got drained a lot. Only to keep up with Ji-woo’s strength.

Ji-woo landed on Ukn’zal’s chest while staring at the tattered short sword that locked Ukn’zal’s four arms. He knew the weapon was just a piece of metal in his hand. No matter how much power Ji-woo used, it wouldn’t be enough to kill a dungeon owner with one move.

“I admit. You are strong, human. But, in front of my Lord’s Commanders and Generals, you are nothing but dust!”

Ukn’zal spoke loudly while black blood spurted out of his mouth. He wanted Ji-woo to know that he was not invincible in this world, just for defeating the Demon Apes with ease.

“So noisy.”

Ji-woo twisted his right palm to strike and thrust the short sword deeper into Ukn’zal’s neck.

The short sword shattered into pieces after piercing Ukn’zal’s neck into the ground. The hole from the throat to the nape of the neck was also quite large because the sword was basically not sharp anymore. It was just a blunt object after getting used to piercing through the Armoire Sphere’s armor defense earlier.

Ji-woo didn’t care about the Demon Ape’s words. He knew no matter where he was. There would always be someone stronger than him. But that didn’t mean he was afraid. He still had his trump card: the true power of Nullifier. Even though he currently didn’t have it yet because he couldn’t find the Spheres that matched his cursed soul.

He had a chance to revive his true strength the first time he saw the Sphere in the Dungeon. It was also the reason why he wasn’t too worried about returning to the battle despite trying to stay away from it after returning home. That was the only way to be able to make money to help his family’s financial debt.

Ji-woo was still confident that he wouldn’t lose to anyone with the true power of Nullifier. Although, he did not know and had no information about how strong the highest-ranking hunters or High-Grade creatures of the Portal Gate were.

Weeng–

Ukn’zal and Az’kal’s bodies emitted white light. Then the two lights fused and turned into a Dungeon Bead and fell into Ji-woo’s hands. Usually, it fell beside the Dungeon owner. But since the Portal Gate, this time had a Dual Owner. It headed toward Ji-woo instead.

Now that it was all over, Ji-woo began to feel his body weigh down with exhaustion. And then it was immediately followed by the expulsion of enormous steam from his entire body. It also caused him to pant heavily as the fumes dissipated.

The Demigod guild Main team leader finally arrived at the tier-3 Portal Gate, where Tae-hyun was waiting.

Tae-hyun bowed respectfully. He didn’t expect the Team leader would come without a car.

“Did the Vice-headmaster know about this?”

“Of course, she knows. How do you think I could come without making a big fuss on the way here? Where I have to jump from building to building to save time. I have to ask In-ah’s permission for that. So, she could anticipate and take action if any problems arise later with the government.”

Tae-hyun felt both uncomfortable and guilty. He asked for help only as a precaution and didn’t think it would trouble the Guild. It would definitely cause him to get scolded by the Vice-headmaster of the Demigod guild until his ears bled after everything had settled.

“I summoned five B-rank hunters from the Main team to enter the Portal Gate. They can observe the situation or help Team 3 later.”

“Ah. Alright, Hyung~nim.”

A Portal Gate usually could still be entered by other hunters even though someone had entered.

No one knew how to determine how many could enter the Portal Gate. The only way was to try to check it directly.

If the hand could penetrate the Portal Gate, then it could still be entered. But when the hook stopped, it was like touching the wall. It might be mean because the number of hunters reached the limit or the hunter’s Mana was too big than the Portal Gate could allow.

And the tier-3 Portal Gate had restrictions on A-rank hunters. So, at the highest, only B-rank hunters could enter the Dungeon. As for hunters below B-rank, all could enter the tier-3 Portal Gate without any obstacles.

Zip, Zip–

Unexpectedly, the Team 3 hunters finally came out after two hours. And the tier-3 Portal Gate slowly faded away.

Tae-hyun got surprised and glad the team was able to close the Portal Gate.

“Ah, I’m just worried for nothing. Everything is…” 

However, Tae-hyun was only halfway through his words when he saw the state of the Team 3 hunters. He then ran over and approached along with the Main team leader.

“I was running to find a hiding place. What happened!?”

“Where are we? Are we in the real world?”

“We’re not in the Dungeon anymore!?”

Tae-hyun heard the confused words of the Team 3 hunters as he scanned them. He couldn’t believe what he saw. Many hunters died, and some of them also lost their limbs.

Suddenly, a hunter shouted amidst the confusion. “Ah, it’s Leader Oh! Please help Do-cheol hyung! Here! He’s not breathing!!”

Tae-hyun turned his attention after hearing the loud voice and instantly remembered about Leader Oh. He then looked back and found the person in question was not there.

Leader Oh appeared before Do-cheol, who was lying on the ground. He raised his right hand, and a blue light wrapped around it after checking Do-cheol’s pulse on the neck and wrist.

“Give me some space.”

Leader Oh gave instructions, and the surrounding hunters retreated. He then pushed and placed his right hand against Do-cheol’s left chest.

Uhuk, Uhuk–

A moment later, Do-cheol coughed and opened his eyes after having his heartbeat stopped previously.

The incident took some hunters by surprise.

The dead come back to life!

However, for some hunters who already know Leader Oh, this was not surprising. Many high-ranking hunters knew the nickname of the team leader, The Godly Doctor.

Oh Dal-soo, the S-rank healer of the Demigod guild. The one and only high-ranking healer in South Korea.

Bringing the dead back to life was easy for him. However, not all of them could get resurrected from the dead. For example, someone who had died within a certain period of time was an impossible task for him.
