Chapter 247
# 247
247. Demon (2)
I opened my eyes.
An inorganic metal wall came into view.
Various training tools placed randomly. I sat hunched over on an iron chair in the corner.
‘Is it over?’
I remembered Halgion reaching out to me and a dark red flame engulfing me. But after that, nothing came to my mind. As if the film had been cut.
“Gu, coo, coo…”
A pigeon was leisurely pecking at its feed.
I closed and opened my eyes once more. No notable changes were seen.
If I had to look for it, there was a system message floating on the right side of my field of vision. I slowly read the letters in the hologram.
[Master ‘Han (★★★★★)”s soul is turbulent!]
This… was the log when the limit break started.
I’ve only seen it once on the 35th floor.
Messages popped up nonstop.
[Tiring!]
[Master ‘Han (★★★★★)”s body is undergoing a cataclysmic change!]
[Is this a sign of change?!]
[Tips/ There is a very rare chance that a hero may undergo an awakening event.]
[ Imprint evolution!]
[Hero ‘Han (★★★★★)’ imprint ‘True Black Dragon Blood (S)’ grade has been raised by one level.] [
New traits and abilities have been added. Take a look at the hero’s status window!]
[Skill Awakening!]
[‘True Black Dragon Blood’ starts responding to the skill of the hero ‘Han(★★★★)’!]
[Hero ‘Han(★★★★★)’ )”s ‘Exceed’ and ‘Strengthening’ combine to create a new skill…]
[Hero ‘Han(★★★★★)”s ‘Sword Spirit’…]
A window announcing skill awakening continued continuously.
A change that is difficult to see at a glance. As the level of Black Dragon’s Blood increased, most of the skills I possessed either merged or evolved. In the meantime, while learning Black Dragon Blood, there were minor changes, but it was the first time that everything was completely reversed in this way.
‘I’d be surprised to see Amkena.’
It was not currently connected.
And thinking of a way to trick him made me sick.
Well, this has not happened once or twice.
There is no chance that it will go unnoticed.
Let’s take a look.
I got up from my chair.
I went through a huge change on the log, but I haven’t felt it yet.
‘Stat window.’
As I muttered lightly, a hologram window came to mind.
[Han Israt (★★★★★) Lv. 55 (Exp 031/550)]
[Class: Dragonian]
[Strength: 125/125]
[Intelligence: 10/10]
[Stamina: 118/118]
[Agility: 113/113]
[Skill: Intermediate Swordsmanship (Lv. 10) Eye of Mind (Lv. 10) Fire Resistance (Lv. 3) Eradication (Lv. 5)]
‘…’
A lot has changed.
I’ve never chosen a job as a dragon fighter.
Rats and birds were forced to change jobs without their knowledge.
Also, the skill window, which should be full, has been cleared.
[Imprint slot: 2/2]
[1 2: Demon Dragon Spirit (SS- Lv. 1)]
[The spirit of a demon that trampled on a world in the distant past and ruled it. Its power can change the source of existence.]
[Unique Skill: 1. Demonization]
[Unique Skill: 2. Black Blade Sword]
[Note – bound by the ‘Black Dragon Contract’ there is. The imprint cannot be lifted in any way, and the moment the affiliation of the territory is changed, the owner disappears permanently.]
I narrowed my brows.
It has trampled on and ruled over a world, and can change the source of existence.
It was a bloody explanation just to read.
‘It’s a black dragon contract.’
It must be the price of power that Halgion mentioned.
From now on, I cannot change my affiliation to a non-Taoni waiting room. If it is changed, the penalty for breach of contract is immediate death. It was like the back was gone.
Overall, the skill and imprint windows have been simplified.
It seems that Exceed and Phaedoshon, who have been my companions up until now, have been integrated into the unique skills of the newly created Demonic Dragon Spirit, Majinhwa and Black Phaeglesword.
‘I don’t feel well.’
It is certain that the race value has changed.
But right now, I couldn’t tell much of a difference from when I was human.
[Can you feel the strength?]
Gugukon, who was constantly pecking at the feeder, looked up at me.
I scratched my head.
“Okay.”
It seemed like I had to go through a pilot test.
I pulled the bifrost from the scabbard attached to my waist.
There was a heavy feeling in my hand.
‘Did Exseed merge with Black Dragon Rin?’
In addition, to hardening.
Rigid body was a skill that strengthened the body that I intensively learned to withstand the recoil of Exceed.
In this way, the three skills were merged to become the higher skill, Myinization, and it seemed that the Swordsman Soul, Dragonsword Island, and other skills were combined again to become the Black Swordsman.
I turned on the switch in my head while gripping the hilt of my sword.
It was that feeling when activating Exceed.
Kwajik.
I heard the sound of bones and joints shifting in my ears.
A customary event felt every time Exceed was used.
But I didn’t feel any pain.
There was no pressure that seemed to set my whole body on fire.
It was just that one side of his chest sank coldly.
‘…?’
I looked away.
At that moment, my image was reflected in the blade of the Bifrost that was pulled out.
The first thing I saw was a black pupil with a sharply curved vertical line.
[‘Han (★★★★★)’ has entered a magical state!]
Charleuk.
As the soft skin was torn, pitch-black scales began to emerge.
Dismissed! Jigsaw Jigsaw!
Dark red lightning bolted from the scales.
‘He’s not human…’
Scales covering the whole body and eerie glowing red eyes.
My image reflected on the blade was like a monster.
I put the bifrost in the scabbard.
[‘Han (★★★★★)’ has been canceled.]
I returned to my human form as if it had never happened.
Gugucon came to me.
[You can feel it now.]
“A little bit.”
[I warned you. You can’t go back once you start. In terms of purity, Belquist isn’t even one-tenth of that. You have obviously become a being apart from other humans. In the future, you must also learn how to suppress power. If you don’t want to accidentally kill your colleague.]
“Is the gap that big?”
[The kid who borrows the power of the white dragon and the little girl who shoots an arrow should be able to follow all four toes.]
I sighed.
[The strong are inherently lonely.]
“It’s not good to count alone. Team play is more efficient.”
As far as I know, yes.
Therefore, I had grown the 1st party of Niflheim evenly.
[Isn’t it enough to be strong enough to ignore halfway efficiency?]
“…”
[Don’t have any regrets. Humans here can’t keep up with you. Ever since you woke me, the balance has been disrupted. I helped him because he said he wanted power, but why are you so dissatisfied?]
Gugu-Kon circled around me and continued.
[In the future, you must be reborn as a perfect being who does not need anyone’s help. If you don’t get to that level, you won’t be able to defeat the prince.]
“He’s a perfect being.”
[Do I need to explain? You should be familiar with it.]
I crossed my arms.
I could guess what it meant.
‘A hero capable of performing missions alone.’
A being that can do everything alone, including
reconnaissance, analysis, combat, assassination, attack, defense, and short-range, small-scale, large-scale battles .
‘…a one-man corps.’
As far as I know, there are only two heroes who can do that.
First of all, El Cid, who was ranked #1.
And Niflheim’s sub-master, Siris.
The other members of the 1st party had vulnerabilities in one or two areas.
To take the example of Lidigion, he was close to invincible in anti-personnel warfare, but had low efficiency in large-scale firefights. And Nihaku did the opposite. Yurnet and Muden also had their own points to target.
‘Siris doesn’t have that.’
It’s close to perfect in every way.
Because I designed it that way.
In any environment, she can exert her strength.
‘Is this for me to be like that.’
The completion of that guy was close to heavenly luck for me as well.
I don’t know if I can repeat it a hundred times.
[Are you sure you’re thinking of coming all the way here?]
“I was thinking about other things.”
I smiled bitterly.
According to Halgion, there would be an irreparable gap between me and the other 1st party members. Of course, they would catch up to me someday, if they had enough time, but I just couldn’t afford it.
‘doesn’t care.’
No matter what, all you have to do is climb to the 100th floor.
Then it was goodbye to this disgusting place.
[All you have to do is think about getting stronger.]
Halgion snorted and looked at me.
The pigeon’s brown eyes narrowed, and a momentary vertigo overtook me.
A strange yet familiar feeling.
I opened my eyes.
The desolate plain from before was spread out again.
[Since you signed a contract with me, I will make you the strongest Taonier.] Halgion
‘s spear was pointed at me.
According to that guy’s explanation, this place is an image space created by mixing the images of Halgion and me.
Therefore, it is not bound by the laws of physics.
‘I told you to know because I’ll come often.’
I planted my feet firmly on the ground.
Halgion was smiling lightly as he pointed his spear at me.
[Time here passes dozens of times slower than in Mobius.]
“…”
[You don’t have to pay attention to your surroundings. It’s all just happening in your consciousness. Even if you die here, you can come back to life again and again. Do you understand the meaning of my words?]
There is no need to turn around.
I immediately drew the sword from the scabbard.
[My strength is an invincible shield and also an infinite spear. It can deflect anything and pierce anything. I’ll teach you the true use of Black Dragon Blood.]
“Not really…”
[Hmm?]
“I don’t want to rely on that power.”
I laughed and turned my sword.
“It’s because I’ve only seen people who only believed in the imprint and then lost it once or twice.”
Obviously, the power of this imprint is enormous, but we cannot rely on it alone.
The meaning of this power is to help my sword better suffocate the opponent.
The host should never change.
‘Advanced weapon technology is right in front of you.’
There is only one step left to reach the stage called master.
[That’s interesting. Will you reject my power?]
“I’m not denying it. I’ll use it when I need it. As a decent tool.”
[Is it a tool? I don’t know how long I can think like that.]
Kwajik!
I stumbled under the pressure that came over me.
A feeling of being pressed down by a large rebar.
My footprints were going deep into the ground.
[Let’s start with 10 times.]
“Do whatever you want.”
This wasn’t even that difficult.
Because training with dozens of kilograms of sandbags was a daily routine.
‘How many times will we fight?’
a hundred times? a thousand times?
It may be more than that.
I’ll be able to feel a little bit of Aaron’s feelings.
‘The important thing…’
is to be the master of power, not the slave.
I decide how to use that power.
No matter how high-end skills and imprints were, in the end it was the hero himself who would use them.
I’ve watched dozens of times of those who fall out after being drunk with all kinds of powerful abilities.
‘It’s an invincible ability.’
There is no such thing.
I stared at Halgion in front of me, ready to wield my sword at any moment.
