Evan D. Sherden, straighten things out. (1)
Ouch!
Evans full speed crash was going on in real-time.
It was fortunate that the path they ran through was a rugged and remote road without people, but if one were to think about it, it was because Evans actions were already difficult in the first place.
He ran with Raihan for a few minutes and learned new tricks little by little, but there was still a long way to go until they could perform an accident-free operation. No matter how well the class talents were, it wasnt easy to be skilled with unique skills.
Hey! Oh!
Master, arent you sick?
Dont think that the amount of damage inflicted on the body and the pain humans feel are the same!
Raihan sighed as he watched the healing magic he had repelled from Evan again.
From a while ago, he was hitting and breaking things like a giant tree that was hundreds of years old and bigger than a golem, making loud noises in the process, but Evan himself wasnt taking any damage!
Master Evan always said that he had high defense because he was wearing boots, but now that hes not even wearing them, just how high is his level of existence?
For reference, Evan was even jamming slime with both hands as they went!
Raihan couldnt help but wonder about Evans true strength.
Were here.
Evan suddenly stopped. Miraculously enough, they didnt crash.
Its a place with a whole lot of nothing.
Raihan, who came down from Evans back and stepped on the ground, tilted his head. This was the border region of the far west of the Silk Line, a plateau in the wilderness.
Only a few wolf-type monsters were howling under the hill in the distance, but the whole area was very quiet. He even doubted that Default had tricked Evan.
It has nothing, so it would have been easy to hide. It was the same when I went to the Witch Forest last time, but it seems that the witches are learning how to hide by creating a subspace, just like a dungeon.
Evan looked around, nodding. Raihan moved his gaze back and forth as if following him, but he could not find any traces of magic.
So How do we enter, Master?
I didnt think of that.
Master?
Raihan thought it was a joke. This was because he had never seen a case in which Evan lacked in terms of preparation.
Do we wait until Shine gets here? No, thats a typical pattern for quests to fail.
As Evan mulled over these thoughts, an idea popped into his head.
Yes, you said that Devil Runes attract each other.
Master?
Evan pulled out the cursed demons boots from the inventory pocket again, put them on, and completely dispelled the magic of his mother, Redine, from the boots.
Covering Evans whole body in an instant, the boots spewed gloomy magic around him!
Why are you still wearing the boots after youve already revealed them?
Im afraid they might get stolen.
I thought that was the reason.
However, Raihan decided not to stop him. Evan was still ridiculously strong even while wearing the boots, anyway.
Oh, Master!
I saw it too!
It was then. At the same coordinates where Evans Knights were, the scene began to distort!
The very next moment, Raihan recognized it Thump! Thud! The pulsing sound resounded in continuation, and the range of the air widened.
Get ready, Master! Something is coming!
It looks like Im not going in, but breaking the barriersHyeong, start the motion!
Im on it!
Kwa-a-a-ang! The very moment when Raihan lifted the shield Evan had given him and firmly stiffened the guard, a roaring sound vibrated throughout the earth!
The hidden witchs laboratory was eventually revealed to the world!
What!?
The subspace is broken! God, that monster will be released to the world!
Who the hell Evan!?
Realizing that the surrounding environment had changed, Evan looked around.
Ctheasil and other young witches, as well as the witches led by Melonia, had gathered together. In the middle of them, a huge monster was so distorted that it was impossible to recognize what its original form was!
[He Calls for youuuuuu!]
What Follow my control!
[Kuhahahahahah!]
That very monster was the main culprit in breaking the subspace. It looked like a sandcastle made by mixing mud and human flesh, but it was not at the level of a mixture of one or two monsters, as the traces of the dark red Devil Rune covered its entire body.
It was the appearance of a monster that was to be called a new Chimera, Devil Rune Chimera.
Dont move! The enemy is right in front of you! Not that way!
[More power The demon is calling upon me!]
It seemed that he was originally aiming at Melonia, but from the moment Evan appeared in the demons boots, Devil Rune Chimeras target changed to Evan. It seemed that Ctheasil was trying to do something, but the seeds didnt work, either.
This is
Master, you cant do this without taking your boots off
Its an opportunity.
What?
Evans eyes sparkled. His gaze was fixed on the Devil Rune, which was entangled in the monsters whole body and emanating its own gloomy light.
The random Devil Rune is showing its power right now. Its your chance to explore it! I can finish my research here!
Are you crazy, Master Evan!?
Its a lot weaker than Grandpa Leo! Hyeong, hold the guard up firmly!
The witches who were trying to dominate the Devil Rune monsters, and the witches who were hostile to them, are now looking at them with desolate gazes.
This was Evans turn to shine!
[That Bring it out!]
Finally, the mound attacked. The Devil Rune flashed gloomily, then some of its torso came off and evaporated. Then, to Evans surprise, it appeared in the air and fell towards Raihan.
[What? What the hell is this?!]
Raihan had already prepared for this beforehand, successfully blocking the attack in the process.
The Enduring Shield and the Drain Shield activated at the same time, almost completely blocking the damage it inflicted, and at the same time absorbing a small portion of the magic power!
Master Evan, this thing The magic power is great. I only absorbed a little, but my body is already overflowing with magic!
But its okay because its not me who should stop it, its you!
[Kuh-oh-oh-oh!]
While his attack flew off to Raihan, Evan approached the Chimeras torso and took quick steps using Heavens Press. The Devil Rune of Evans boots reacted with his body, shining purple.
[Human, you would dare to use that power!]
No, this is my strength. Hop!
Heavens Press was a move that could completely overpower its opponents. However, like the Devil Rune monsters he encountered before, his Devil Rune was also equipped with a shield-forming function, and as if against Evans footwork, he created countless shields under his feet to block it.
Even though he was aiming for a gap to attack Raihan, an immediate reaction appeared, and it was found that the Devil Rune was activated regardless of the owners will.
[Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!]
I knew it wasnt going to be easy.
Of course, Evan ended up destroying the entire shield and exerting terrible pressure on its entire body, but that was by no means his full power.
[How, how dare you!]
Okay, then lets go back to Heavens Press!
[Nowahhhhhhhhh!]
This was truly a huge clash of power! It was a chaos of movements aimed at gaining the upper hand in terms of power.
As the collision repeated, it was seen that some change took place in Evans Devil Rune. The Devil Rune, mixed up in a mess with the same kind of power, began to find order.
Its strange to use the expression of order when it comes to power above normal standards on a Devil Rune Anyway, its just as I intended! Just a little more!
Evan added strength to both hands and activated Heavens Press. The waves of heavenly gravity, which covered Evans hands and expanded, formed the shape of a truly enormous palm, pressing the Devil Rune Chimera. Its appearance was similar to the Palm of Ru Lai!
[Kick, kie, eh! Keep it away! I mean give it to me!]
I cant give it!
Devil Runes had a tendency to become one. If both sides shared it, it was natural that it would only flow in favor of one side.
Evan was holding the Devil Rune Chimera tightly by activating Battle Step and Heaven Press at the same time.
[Die!]
Hyeong!
I know!
[Uh, ohhhh!?]
Moreover, whenever the Chimera hit with a full-fledged attack, the attack was automatically driven toward Raihan.
[Ah, ah, ah! Beating the cause and effect of the attack, is that also your power!?]
Oh, thats not me, but Hyeongs strength.
Wow!
Either he raised his ugly melted arm or threw a sphere of magical power created by the power of the Devil Rune; however, they would only hit Raihan, not Evan.
That alone was a good thing. Due to Raihans perfect guard, his attacks did not cause any significant damage!
Master, that attack is very heavy!
Thats how good your shield skill training is!
Its very different from the story I first heard Oh, no!
[Kaaahahahah!]
As Evan counterattacked, Raihan made sure to soak up all the monsters attempts at injuring his master.
The witches? They were urgently avoiding the area that was being affected so as not to be swept away. If Evan failed to defeat him, the monsters next target would surely be them!
If this continues Didnt I tell you to follow my instructions?!
Nuna, no!
However, there was only one of them who wanted to approach the monster without giving up. It was Ctheasil.
Default tried to stop her desperately, but she shunned her brothers curse and stretched her wand toward the Chimera.
Accept your rightful master! I dont have time to play with that little boy anymore!
Huh!?
[My master is only the demon! Those who block the way to him will die!]
The timing wasnt good. Hence, the moment Ctheasil came to the fore, the Devil Rune Chimera overcame the constant pressure of the heavens, greatly expanded the entire scene, and brought out the power of the Devil Rune!
Its body glowed. The same magical power soared without end. In the meantime, the Devil Rune covered his body, and all of Evans attacks were effortlessly repelled.
Damn it. This is a special move!
It was the first pattern he had experienced, but Evan felt intuition. Whether it was the Yo-Ma Great War Series or any other game, all the bosses had ample time to show off their special moves.
Oh, its chewing everything up to the heavens! I cant cancel this, Hyeong!
Master Evan, you have to step back!
Hmm!
Raihan, who had been educated by Evan and knew about the boss monsters general behavior pattern and how to respond each time, quickly moved to block the attack and cast a single-shot auxiliary magic on himself.
The only problem was Ctheasil. Even Default had bravely gone out to defend her.
Is this just trolling? Raihan lamented. All of the party members he had gone through so far were only good guys who followed Evans orders immediately, but these people they really wanted to die, didnt they?!
Hyeong! You cant die again!
Its okay, Master.
Raihan took a step forward and raised his shield.
However, Ctheasil and Default were already approaching the monsters front. Even if the monsters attack was concentrated on Raihan, it would be difficult for the two of them to avoid any damage.
I cant do it, its a bit dangerous, but I
As Evan moved, Raihan screamed, his thoughts moving in sync with what his master was planning to do.
Come to me, monster!
He was only holding a short and thick sword. What the hell would that change?
But it did change. The next moment, the monster appeared in front of Raihans eyes. Regardless of his intentions, he was led by his protection.
[Youve been bothering me until the end, damn thing! If thats what you wish, then dieeeeeeee!]
Magic powerful enough to destroy a city spilled all over Raihans body.
