126. Rematch (3)
“Press down.”
The moment I spoke the command by <Death Magic>.
Kieeeeeeeeeeeeee!
The fishmen scattered here and there began to scream and gather together.
Of course, there were also cases where Namgoong-hyeok attacked them and their bodies were split into fragments… … .
Regardless of those things, they crawled on the ground as if they were sliding and quickly rushed towards Namgung-hyeok.
“To think he even learned the necromancy of a cult… … !”
Namgoong-hyeok, who saw that, was frightened and tried to wipe out the collection of fishmen by swinging his sword, but it was impossible.
In fact, <Death Magic>, which was activated through the gray crown of the ancient emperor, could manipulate anything that was dead.
The dead never stop moving unless they are completely destroyed.
‘B+ grade <Death Magic> is that powerful.’
But I couldn’t completely relax either.
“The durability of the Ancient Emperor’s Gray Crown (A-) decreases by 0.01%.”
“The durability of the Ancient Emperor’s Gray Crown (A-) decreases by 0.01%… … .」
“Durability of Ancient Emperor’s Gray Crown (A-) decreased by 0.01%… … .」
The crown on his head suffered from incontinence without a break, and its durability decreased.
If things went on like this, the crown itself could be broken, so I had to move quickly as planned.
‘Let’s finish quickly.’
Watching Namgoong-hyeok swinging his sword like crazy, I raised my suspicions even more.
“The Ancient Emperor’s Ashen Crown (A-) exclusive effect <Death Magic (B+)> is strongly activated.”
「The movement of all the dead is increased by 300%, and the death magic is not dispelled unless the corpse is completely destroyed.」
“The Ancient Emperor’s Ashen Crown (A-) is affected by the strong active state of <Death Magic (B+)>.”
「The item’s durability is consumed 8 times faster, and the mind begins to be polluted faster.」
The fishmen crawling on the ground began to move at transcendental speeds.
damn
Then I added one more command, feeling a great crack in the crown on my head.
“Hold on.”
Following that order, the group of the dead began not only to oppress Namgung-hyeok, but also to seize him.
Even though it was simply one more instruction, the efficiency did not increase by just one instruction.
The corpses, which were busy holding Namgoong-hyeok down, now moved to cling to him in an ugly way.
Namgung-hyeok eventually allowed some gap in the swarm of corpses quickly gathering.
“Ouch! Let go of this! Dare to do dirty tricks… … !”
Immediately, even his voice quickly faded as it was buried in the mass of corpses.
Namgoong-hyeok’s new model is now completely trapped in the fishman’s tower and cannot be seen.
“The Ancient Emperor’s Ashen Crown (A-) exclusive effect <Death Magic (B+)> is disabled.”
In response, I took off the gray crown I was wearing and put it in my inventory.
Concentrate on the Blood Demon Sword and hold the counterattack shield with both hands.
‘I have to finish it with the strongest technique possible.’
With all the conditions in place, he should have been able to kill Namgung-hyeok.
However, the only problem is that if you can’t kill him in one shot at this opportunity, the fight will become somewhat messy.
In order to prevent such a situation, I had to use the strongest technique to finish it.
In this situation, to my knowledge, there was only one technique with the highest killing power.
Chang Chun Yun-Geom (蒼天輪劍).
This plant-eating, which once transformed the entire Tokyo area into a flat land, was the strongest wide-area technique I knew.
The clumsy magical sword in his hand rotated slowly at the same time as his waist twisted.
「The skill ‘Counter Shield’ releases the accumulated damage all at once.」
A blinding flash of light flowed from the tip of the sword like an explosion and radiated like a whirlwind.
The storm of light, which must have been powerful in the first place… … .
「The exclusive effect of the skill ‘Soul Source Demonic Sword 混元魔劍’, ‘Double Combustion (雙連擊)’ is activated.」
It didn’t stop at just one.
***
The scene after a total of three storms swept through the area was beyond imagination.
At all, all the trees were burned, and all the water that was filling the lake was evaporated.
It would not be an exaggeration to say that the concept of destruction itself appeared and then disappeared.
In this situation, Namgung-hyeok could not have been alive.
but… … .
“I’m really going crazy.”
Namgung-hyeok was alive even after being hit with all these crazy attacks.
Of course, the condition was not to the extent that it could be said to be fine.
The clothes have long been tattered, and blood is flowing from the eyes, ears, and mouth.
However, I was able to realize it when I saw the brilliance of the sword in Namgoong-hyeok’s hand.
It’s as if this battle has already been lost.
‘What the hell is that… … .’
I was dumbfounded when I saw the starlight-like brilliance flowing from Namgoong-hyuk’s sword.
As I climbed the tower, I knew right away because I had accumulated experience in many ways.
That was not a skill or authority, but a skill expressed through pure skill.
Even that is of a higher level than swordsmanship or swordsmanship.

I wondered if it would be like that if I added three properties to the sword.
Thinking about it for a moment, it wasn’t that again.
‘It wasn’t an attack that could be defended just by adding one more property that could be applied to the sword.’
I squinted my eyes at him for a moment, but soon realized the correct answer and felt a sense of collapse.
‘This is just a foul… … .’
The correct answer I realized while watching the resonance of the mana around Namgung-hyeok was this.
Geomchi is a skill that adds a property that interferes with the law to the sword itself, and Geomchi is a state where one more property can be added.
That was a kind of extreme intention that allowed him to go beyond that level and even use the magic around him like sword flames.
If you go further from that level, if you set your mind to it, you can cut everything just like you swung a sword… … .
You will also be able to use a technique that should be called a heart sword.
‘I feel like I know why Namgung-hyeok worshiped martial arts so much.’
It was also understood that he was able to escape from the influence of Chang Chun Yun-geom, which was repeated three times.
I didn’t use any great skills or special powers.
‘I couldn’t believe it, but I just used the blue sky sword… … .’
Namgung-hyeok originally only used the defensive herbivore that he was able to spread.
However, the defensive herbivore itself is strengthened like crazy and affects the surroundings, so this result came out.
As I stared at Namgoong-hyeok, sobbing, his mouth opened.
“… … be honored to know Originally, sword steel wasn’t something you guys would see.”
Unlike before, Namgoong-hyuk’s tone was quite tired.
It was worth it.
The technique Namgung-hyuk just showed off was beyond his level.
No matter how great Namgung-hyeok is, you can’t casually use something like that.
To explain, the current Namgung-hyeok was in a state of death with just one proper attack.
It was clear that he had little energy left, even from the way he gasped for breath and the detection of his magic circuit.
It was a divine move to drain the energy as if to tease him in advance.
Namgoong-hyuk’s technique must have been his last resort to escape a desperate situation.
If I could drive him to the corner one more time like this, it was clear that I would win.
“… … .”
However, the problem is that there is a high probability that I will be killed before killing Namgoong-hyeok in such a state.
It was none other than the star-like brilliance of his sword.
Even I couldn’t even try to turn off the time because my mana was empty now.
「The authority ‘Quick Magic Recharge’ is activated.」
Even after activating previously acquired powers, the speed of magic recovery did not increase much.
‘It takes 10 minutes for all magic power to recover.’
Even though he was enduring damage to his magic circuit and accepting magic, he was still like this… … .
At the current level of recovery, the best thing to do was to attack a few times.
But I burned my will and glared at Namgung-hyeok.
As the saying goes, it’s not over until it’s over.
Even though the victory was completely on the decline, there was still a chance for me to turn around.
‘If everything went as I thought, it wouldn’t be a situation where I would completely despair.’
「Authority ‘Sword of Iron Blood’ is activated.」
Namgoong-hyeok, seeing the summoned sword in his left hand, gave a fishy laugh.
“Until the very end, such an outrage. I will put an end to that ugly struggle now.”
And then Namgoong-hyeok’s sword, which was imbued with starlight, moved as if it were bent.
Chae Ae-Aeng!
Even though it was a skill that could be said to be a higher compatibility of sword flame, it couldn’t break my sword flame right away.
Is the skill itself like that or is the caster the problem… … .
Not much was known, but at least I knew that this was an opportunity.
‘I have to take my time and recover as much magic as possible.’
One sum, two sums, three sums… … .
The fierce battle between blade and blade did not last that long.
Chaeng-Geurang!
「The Authority ‘Sword of Iron Blood’ is deactivated.」
At the point where the sum of ten was exceeded, the Sangvis sword summoned by authority immediately shattered.
“die!”
Namgoong-hyeok’s sword then bent like a snake, as if not to miss the opportunity.
Awesome!
The moment when Namgoong-hyeok’s sword flashed and the cold steel texture passed over the nape of his neck.
A strange thing happened.
「The skill ‘Last Resistance’ is activated.」
“The fatal wound inflicted on you is nullified.”
「All senses are temporarily amplified and all skills are compensated.」
「This skill is given a cooldown of one week.」
last stand.
A skill like a last resort acquired as an additional breakthrough reward for the 12th floor ordeal.
I, who should have obviously died because of it, returned to a normal state.
‘… … I couldn’t believe it, but I didn’t think this was the real invalidation process.’
I realized the meaning of the sentence in the skill description that said to invalidate fatal wounds.
Without any exaggeration, the situation that really fatally wounded me was reversed.
As if rewinding time.
“What… … !?”
Was a skill like Last Stand unpredictable to him?
Namgoong-hyeok panicked and quickly tried to swing his sword again… … .
This crazy skill doesn’t just have the effect of returning you to a non-mortally wounded state.
「The skill ‘Frenzied Swordplay’ fixes the attack speed to maximum due to the correction of the skill use effect.」
My sword attack, which received compensation for all skill usage effects, was three or four times faster.
The sword, into which all the mana he had recovered for this occasion was poured into, swung with a burst of red thunderbolts.
Chow!
Then, the moment when the eerie sensation of cutting through the skin spreads through the whole body along the tips of the fingers.
“Congratulations, you have cleared the 14th floor of the Tower of Trials.”
“As a breakthrough reward, ‘Wind Spirit Boots (A+)’ will be sent to your inventory.”
“You have acquired ‘10,000 points’ as a breakthrough reward.”
「You acquired ‘4,000 SP’ as a breakthrough reward.」
「By winning against an unexpectedly powerful challenger, additional breakthrough rewards are enhanced.」
「You acquired ‘4,000 SP’ as an additional breakthrough reward.」
「As an additional breakthrough reward, the ‘Breaking Sword (A+)’ will be sent to your inventory.」
“Go to the waiting room.”
Messages announcing the end of the 14th floor ordeal came to mind.
