Episode 355:
Grumbling. Grumble. Rumbling.
Twenty tentacles surrounded Taehyun, ignoring the thunderstorm.
‘Are there properties that are different from what they seem?’
As Taehyun thought that, he raised his head and made eye contact with the guy.
[Kim Tae-hyun. As I heard, you are an arrogant person.]
“Did Jormungand send you there too?”
[Jelga is the servant who serves Jormungand. You are a guest. [There is no intention to fight.]
Contrary to what was said, each tentacle felt like it was trying to tear Taehyun apart at any moment.
“well. “I think that was their idea.”
Taehyun said while looking around.
Dozens of monsters were floating corpses.
[….]
Pazizik. Pajik.
slam. slam. slam.
The magic power of the thunderbolt that still remained created waves in the demonic sea.
“A person who thrives with tentacles. How to get ruined with tentacles. “Why don’t you be honest?”
[What do you mean?]
Tiring.
[Skill Master of Desire (SSS) has been activated.]
Dark blue magical power bloomed from Taehyun’s body.
Zelga’s massive body wriggled under the great devil’s magic.
[I heard he was a contractor for Rosaria. As I heard, it is a trivial power.]
The position of Archduke is not something that can be achieved simply through individual force.
It is natural to have omnipotent power.
Leadership and subordinates who can lead the servant must be supported.
In that respect, there is only one king who rules the vast Demon Sea.
The reason why Jormungand was given the title of King of the Demon Sea was because he had outstanding descendants.
I remembered the information Erebos gave me the other day.
‘There are about 100 members of the highest genus that inhabit the Horse Sea. They all have great loyalty.’
Among them, High Kraken Xelga was ranked around 50th.
[Don’t be foolhardy.]
A hundred tentacles of Xelga wriggled all at once.
The magic of the dragon clan can clearly be felt in the sword he is holding.
The power of the demon race can be felt in the dark blue magic power that is rising now.
Is that all?
It was a well-known fact that Taehyeon, who started out as a contractor for the Dream Demon tribe, used the power of the Demon Beast tribe, Vampire tribe, and Giant tribe.
“This guy’s popularity is not cooling down.”
[I heard you have a cunning tongue, and that was also true.]
“If you listen to it, it might not be such a bad offer.”
Taehyun raised a suggestion.
It was simple.
If Taehyun wins, I will take him safely to Jormungand.
If he wins, Taehyun will go under Jormungand.
It was Zelga who already knew that Jormungand was interested in Taehyun.
‘The greater the risk to the caster, the stronger the binding effect of the Ruler of Desire.’
This is something Taehyun learned while using a skill recently.
[indeed. It’s enough to make fun of your tongue.]
Tiring.
[The pact of desire has been made. The Great Devil’s spell is applied.]
Dark blue magic power announced that a contract had been concluded.
Only then did Taehyun unlock his magical powers.
Tsuzzzzzzzz.
[Skill Apocalypse (SSS) has been activated.]
[Skill Chain of Binding (SSS) has been activated. Specifies the shape.]
In the darkness that has fallen.
Sigh. Churrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.
Grumbling. Rumbling.
Chains and tentacles approached Xelgar.
“Jelga. “This is how tentacles are used.”
Not inferior to Zelga’s.
Numerous tentacles reminiscent of Rosaria’s surrounded Xelga.
[Why you…]
Xelga’s tentacles trembled.
Not because of fear, but because of discomfort.
There are many monsters with tentacles in the Abyss, but tentacles also have their own rank.
In that respect, what Taehyun used now is the best product.
It was beyond even himself.

Taehyun’s tentacles were almost inherited from Rosaria’s, so it was a natural level difference.
However, Xelga is also a top-class monster that mainly uses tentacles.
[No way.]
Black liquid spewed out from its tentacles.
‘It’s probably not ink.’
When it touched Taehyun’s tentacle, smoke rose.
Chi profit. Cheeik.
Judging from the familiar sound, it seemed to be acidic.
“It’s also official.”
When it comes to acidity, Taehyun has skills that are second to none.
Tiring.
[Skill Devil’s Saliva (SSS) has been activated. Specifies the target.]
Chi-ik. Chii Iik. Cheeik.
Taehyun’s tentacles were overlaid with purple magic.
The tentacles, which were threatening in themselves, became poisonous weapons.
The tentacles became entangled and the Demon Sea turned purple.
It didn’t take much time for the game to be decided.
* * *
The deepest part of the sea.
The realm of Grand Duke Jormungand.
After Taehyun had traveled a long way on the Zelga, a huge castle appeared in front of him.
“Here?”
[That’s right….]
“Jelga. “If it’s false, the Great Devil’s spell will work.”
High Kraken shook his head at Taehyun’s threat.
[It’s not a lie… If you cross that gate… it will lead you to Jormungand’s castle…]
High Kraken, Zelga.
He, who was also Jormungand’s highest species, responded while trembling in shame.
Even though he was defeated by Taehyun and ended up giving directions, his pride has not gone anywhere.
At the place he pointed to, there was a large gate that swirled like waves.
“but. “It’s stupid to think nonsense when you’ve been hit like that.”
[Next time we meet….]
“Don’t stand out. “Can’t we just cut off one or two tentacles?”
[….]
Out of a hundred tentacles, only ten remain.
Taehyun stepped on Zelga’s shabby head and jumped into the gate built at the entrance.
It was a passage leading to the castle of Jormungand, otherwise known as the Dragon Palace.
[You devil… It wasn’t long before your head was still attached…]
Behind Taehyun’s disappeared figure.
Xelga cursed.
* * *
What Zelga said was not a lie.
As soon as you pass the gate.
[I was waiting.]
Jormungand was in front of me.
Taehyun calmly made eye contact with the guy without showing any signs of surprise.
Just before passing through the gate because I already remember being attacked by Beelzebub.
I had just used ‘Stone Skin’, ‘Golden Steel’, and even ‘Blood Runaway’.
“I came to make a pact of summoning.”
Taehyun mentioned the oath to summon without fail.
Kill, kill, kill.
Contrary to his appearance, Jormungand let out an eerie laugh.
[He’s still a fun guy. That seems like an unfavorable contract for me?]
“It’s difficult to make a good contract for everyone in the first place.”
[This is because I do not like puns. How about showing sincerity in the world of images?]
Didn’t he destroy the princes with his power in the world of images?
In the end, didn’t he help most in defeating the doppelganger?
Jormungand demanded his share.
“So you want a subordination contract.”
That was a contract that was unfavorable to Taehyun.
[Great devil Gorfer. Didn’t you get his power?]
“….”
It didn’t seem like it would be resolved as easily as expected.
[There must be something prepared. Take it out and see.]
Jormungand said with an expectant expression.
Although it was said in a gentle tone, it was no different from an order.
“okay. “There’s no need to go back far.”
Quaaaaa.
Taehyun unleashed his magical power.
[Is this really a choice? Summoning skills are not possible in this area.]
It is said that Taehyeon summoned four archdukes simultaneously from the world of images.
The situation is different in Mahae.
Due to the nature of the location, multiple barriers are spread out, and even if the summoning skill is successful, it cannot be used to its full potential due to the limitations of the Abyss.
Taehyun, who thought he knew that much, was disappointed when he used the skill.
“Have you ever heard of the saying that removing the hem is prohibited?”
[What nonsense are you talking about?]
Tiring.
[Skill Great Devil’s Heart (SSS) has been activated. The proficiency of all skills increases.]
[Skill Gate Apostle (SSS) has been activated. Specifies the location.]
[Skill Energy Drain (SSS) has been activated.]
Tsuzuzuzuzu.
A huge gate was created in front of me.
It was a gate that could only be maintained by absorbing the magic power of Jormungand in the area, which was different in size from the one used for movement.
Next, I reached out to the gate that was used as a passage into the Dragon Palace.
Sigh. Churrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.
A magical chain tightly connected Taehyeon’s gate and the Yonggung gate.
Sigh. Continue.
I could feel a huge amount of magic being sucked in with my eyes.
[The summoning skill Igmun (SSS) has been activated.]
Ahhh.
Apart from the magic power sucked in from the gate.
A huge amount of magical power escaped from the body.
The moment I thought the area was covered in blood-red magic.
[Damn Kim Tae-hyun. Is it you again?]
A vampire lord and ruler of the Incubus clan.
Archduke Igmun has appeared.
* * *
Igmun’s first reaction was anger.
He knows that the person who summoned him here is Taehyun.
[Dare again…]
Following Beelzebub’s castle, he was summoned to the world of images and suffered.
Igmun was the one who was used the most by Taehyeon among the princes.
“Woah, calm down.”
Taehyeon spoke to Igmun, who was raising his magic power, and placed his hand on the dragon slayer sword.
Just in case.
The absurd thing is that the same was true for Jormungand.
[The main barrier… was broken through?]
The one caught by his Odd Eye was clearly Igumoon.
Originally, the Grand Duke would never come over here.
However, Kim Tae-hyun succeeded in summoning the Archduke using a ridiculous trick.
And it wasn’t seriously restricted by the Abyss.
Igmun is not in a bad state.
“There is always a hidden card.”
[This is a guy I really want.]
Jormungand clicked his tongue as he looked at the gate of the disappearing passage.
Igmun was equally unhappy with the current situation.
[There will be no fooling around this time.]
The magical power emitted from the body immediately engulfed the entire area.
Blood Field.
It was a power like power that maximized Igmun’s magical power.
[That’s unpleasant. Are you trying to pretend to be the owner of my castle?]
Jormungard raised his magic power.
Blue magic over the blood field.
The devil’s sea swirled.
The two archdukes began a struggle of power.
Still, he kept an eye on Taehyun’s movements.
Although it has become weaker.
There is an unbridgeable gap between the Grand Duke and Taehyeon.
It wasn’t difficult for them to kill Taehyun if they wanted to.
Nevertheless, the reason he does not do it is because of the uniqueness of the key and the conviction that he will be threatened as soon as Taehyeon’s life is targeted.
[Don’t worry. Taehyun Kim. I won’t be fooled by you this time.]
It’s as if Ig-moon doesn’t even need to listen to Tae-hyeon.
A blood test was made.
The intention is to throw it away and seal its tongue.
[This is the surname of the principal. Don’t think about making nonsense about uninvited guests.]
Jormungand warned.
[What is here is not the main body. What have you to be afraid of?]
Igmun fought back without losing.
The chances of winning are slim.
The intention was to inflict as much damage as possible with Donggui Jinja.
It was Igmun’s confidence that came from the uniqueness of the species that his current body had the same properties as his alter ego.
“Instead, the power of existence will be weakened.”
[….]
[….]
Both Jormungand and Igmun were speechless at Taehyun’s words.
[Rosaria, that damn thing was talking nonsense.]
Igmun growled.
Unlike him.
Phew.
Jormungand burst out laughing.
Contrary to my thoughts that I would not be influenced by Taehyun.
This is because I am truly happy about this unexpected situation.
[You made a stage like this again. Yes, if I had summoned Igmun, I would have prepared something. Tell me.]
He graciously allowed me to speak.
“The offer is the same. “There was just one more person added.”
[…?]
[…?]
“Jormungand Igmun. Let’s make a pact of summoning with me.”
