Demon King
Chapter 126 Predation [1]

The atmosphere of the battlefield changed completely. No doubt, some people noticed that the magic I just used was beyond the reach of humans, but I didn't care. They will continue to judge me based on my appearance, which looks like a human being, as always.

“She just stopped her attack..”.

“What is it..?”

I drew my sword, stretched it out. I realized I had not fixed it; it still had the damage it suffered during my fight with Marcocias. It was because of my encounter with Katsuragi and the underground maintenance that I completely forgot about. An ******* came out of my mouth when I regretted my own stupidity. Even in such a short period of time, attacks continued to fly. Soldiers started popping up one after another as if they thought just shooting magic from a distance would not be enough. The guild leader from Incheon stepped forward.

“We can fight them. Do something about that son of a bitch Lee Minha. ”

“Good.” I put away my great sword. If it's torn, it can't be changed. Better to fight with empty hands. It was then that I remembered that I did have a weapon to use. I killed Marcocias and received two items, the Pure White Reaper and the Shawl Mirror. The Pure White Reapharus became the dagger he used. I danced out of the path of the magic attack and took it out of my inventory.

[Pure White Reaper (2,987/3,200) – Attack 1,200]

That's all the information I have, but it's quite surprising. It was a small dagger, yet it had an attack power nearly twice that of a Twilight sword. As soon as I made sure there was no room for a trap, I took it. It felt strange; as I held it in my hand, it felt like it was made especially for me. I thought it was just a coincidence that it bears the name Reaper, but then I felt a bit silly. I don't think there's a correlation. It also made me realize how stupid Marcocias was in using it.

The mana coming out of the dagger made me instinctively realize one of its functions. I swung my dagger as if to pierce through the mist ahead. The energy contained within it sucked up mana in the mist, creating a new dagger in the air. Before long it melted away, a series of mysterious occurrences that were only visible to me.

“Kuh, she's also here.” The fog gathered once again, covering my sight. I can hear Lee Minha's voice this time.

“I thought you were coming, so I couldn't help but move.” Magic whistled through the air and rushed towards my heart. Swallowed it with Predation, and once again made a dagger in the air, I easily found it. He was in the middle of a group of dozens of elites. A translucent gray shield covered him, and I recognized him instantly from the Rookie Battlefield.

“It is crazy to think of using it only for one time.”

“You can directly feel it, devil.” Magic like pitch-black earthworms wriggled in the air towards me; which one was too powerful for me to devour entirely. The mana was sticky and dirty, and it disgusted me to think of how many lives had to be mutilated and lost in order to create such magic.

“If sin is heavy, you will not be able to lift your head.”

“To whom you speak, I want to know.” It was a different energy from Jinma or Elakatra, standing at the opposite point of the two. I knew it would seep through my veins like poison when I predicted it. It was a magic that seemed designed to kill me. Instead of Predation, I filled the dagger with Reaper energy to cut through it.

“Did Elakatra prepare that for you?”

“Cannot.”

“They definitely know this is impossible to do with your own strength.”

“What? Kgh. ” He let out a more pronounced laugh at home in a cartoon.

“This world has become very pleasant. How long has it been since I heard the word impossible. ” It came to me in a moment. Hearing his words, everything became clear. His actions, why is he here, why is he cooperating with the elves.

“You must feel very bad when you see there is an entity stronger than you.”

“...!” The magic flew once again, this time in various versions. Unlike the energy of Elakatra, I could not analyze it at all. It would be foolish for me to try to eat it with Predation. I hesitated for a moment before activating Space Destruction. No matter how much power the soul had compressed; it could not sustain itself from the explosion that occurred without warning. Lee Minha's laughter distorted; I wondered if she wished I would eat that magic and disappear.

“I have to get rid of you here.”

“To use a soul like this without learning or determination.” Is there any other reason for Elakatra to study soul monsters, or do they just want an army? Is it as simple as I thought? Might as well.

“No one can demean me.” With that arrogant remark, he extended a hand. I could feel the deteriorating mana filling the space around me, but I swung the Pure White Reaper.

“Hah?!” The dagger had finally appeared by itself, having absorbed the mana until now. The dagger poured like a meteor shower to tear off the mana concentrated on me, continuing to the drop point where Lee Minha and his men were.

“Kahak!”

[You gained 283 experiences.]

It was just his subordinate, but I gained experience. They are not higher or lower entities, but the deterioration of their psyche has damaged the structure of our species. No matter how many I kill, I won't get any gold either. They are beings that have been excluded from the system that governs the world. Elakatra must have had a reason to give such power to humans.

Lee Minha could not hide her greed and ambition, and as a result, she was taken advantage of by the elves. There was nothing more to learn from him, which was disappointing. The mist containing the unpleasant mana disappeared, and what I saw confused me. Lee Minha is the only one standing there – not a single person in sight. The dagger had incredible destructive power, but the sight was strange. He had defended himself with a shield made of souls, but where were all the people killed?

“Whoo.” He sighed violently, and I knew his appearance had changed.

Now, through this. The contaminated mana swirled within him, transforming his body to an incomparable level. His soul had changed and mixed with countless others, forming a disgusting form. It was not like the Wind of Eutinus. Rather, it was the monstrous form that this man wanted.

Almostdone.

“...” There is only one answer on how the elites disappeared.

“Not me you prepared.” The magic was meant to kill and absorb his own men.

“Nobody can stand above me. I've been thinking about it since the elves told me that I should never have come into contact with you. The time has come for me to reclaim my place. Everything is there for me, sacrificing herself for me. ”

“So you also pollute their souls?” Only for now, it was easier to absorb it. It was so silly, I couldn't laugh. The mana of a dirty soul thrived, more than five times that of mine. I put away my dagger, and he laughed when he saw it disappear into my inventory. He seemed to think I had given up.

“You are done. Both demons and elves will be erased from the earth, and I will sit on the throne that has been prepared for me. Blame yourself for your destiny. ” I don't want to listen to it anymore. I clapped, and a flash of dark green light shot into the air to hit Lee Minha directly. It was healing magic. I have learned magic since I became a monster, but it is the only healing magic I have worked on the body. But what about the healing magic of those who learn to touch spirits? It is a miracle that heals the soul. It returned a distorted and twisted soul to its original form.

“Oh, groaoaaaaah!” One side of Lee Minha's face, which was very strange in shape, was pierced. It was just the beginning; every part of his body began to spin, shrink, swell, and explode.

‘Lee Minha, did you know? The elves themselves saw you as a disposable person. ‘

[Yes, did it work?!]

“Do not memorize any resurrection spells.” I made the face of Katsuragi, the hero who could heal, and rushed towards Lee Minha's body. I have only one thought in my head.

Even if I hate it, the truth will come to me.

And it's not far.
