Chapter 29.2: Super Sensory (3)
It was quite high, but there were no problems.
I had already confirmed that if I used the floating veil in the air, it would fix my body mid-flight.
In short, if I used it while falling, the force of falling disappeared, so I could use it for landing.
Teouk.
Right before landing, I used the floating veil to land safely on top of the stone wall.
There was a hole in the stone wall where Asher was standing.
When I brought the glowstone closer, I saw that there was a space inside, just as she said.
“Go in.”
“Yes.”
At my words, Asher jumped down the stone wall first.
After checking the height of the floor, I also jumped down. And…
“…”
I was a little dumbfounded and looked around at the scenery unfolding in front of me.
There was a very wide space inside the stone wall. It was a scale I had never guessed.
It was also very artificial.
The walls and passages were cut straight like an underground lair of a secret organization, and the glowstones on the walls emitted faint light as if their power was almost exhausted.
What the hell is this place?
No matter how one looked at it, it’s not an ordinary dungeon.
No, was this even a dungeon?
Feeling the growing sense of alienation growing in my heart, I moved along the aisle ahead.
The aisle was very long. It was also twisted here and there and sometimes divided into several parts.
After moving for such a long time, we could reach a certain communal space.
…Altar?
That was the first thought that came to my mind when I first saw it.
A structure made of red stone placed in the middle of a large space.
The walls, ceiling, and floor around it were illuminated with magic circles and bizarre characters.
I had no choice but to pay attention to such trivial things.
It was because ‘something’ was sitting in the magic circle in the middle of that strange structure.
Wearing an old robe, something that looked like a human at first glance.
The moment I found it, an ominous feeling of unknown origin soared instinctively, and a number that made me doubt my eyes was reflected in my field of vision.
【Lv. 97]
…What the hell was that, the fuck.
I couldn’t help but understood that they were in a very shitty situation right now.
This place was not a dungeon where Tair found a mystery.
It was the moment she was about to tell Asher, who was holding the hilt of the sword with a nervous expression on her side, to escape…
Flash!
Violet rays flashed.
Asher, who was directly hit by the beam, was blown backwards before she had time to react.
“…!”
I hurriedly turned my head.
Asher was pinned against the wall and could not move. I thought she was dead, but she thankfully just fainted.
I slowly looked forward again at the sound of laughter.
“Kheuh… hehe, heuhhahaha…!”
The grotesque laughter that flowed from the monster in the robe reverberated through the space.
“It’s here, It’s finally here! After all, fate didn’t forsake me!”
As he got up from his seat, the robe he was wearing crumbled and flew away.
And the exposed body of the guy was just bizarre.
The skin was black like ink, the veins clearly rising above it were pure white, and the eyes were shining brightly with blood.
Peeing!
Immediately, I took out the bow I was carrying on my back, took aim and shot the arrow drenched in my blood.
However, the arrow was blocked by the shield that wrapped around the robed monster and only bounced helplessly.
Feeling very disappointed, I lowered my bow and opened my mouth.
“…What are you?”
The monster who had been laughing for a long time stopped laughing and said.
“Enpyrus Deima, the wizard who dreams of eternity.”
“…That’s a name I’ve never heard of.”
“Oh, so much time has probably passed since my name has already been forgotten.”
His level was 97. He only had a one level difference compared to the Overlord, Rashtain.
My life was in danger.
Asher was knocked out, and my instant kill ability couldn’t reach him.
I kept my composure and stared at him with sunken eyes.
“Is the reason you attacked us because we invaded your territory?”
“Invasion? Hahaha! Quite the opposite! Do you know how long I’ve been waiting for someone to come here?! I couldn’t step out of this small magic circle, barely maintaining my dead body!”
He said incomprehensible words.
However, I could tell from his words just now that he was an ancient mage, and that he had been imprisoned here for a very long time.
And he was thrilled by my presence here.
Fu-wook!
“…?!”
The light flashed again, and my stomach felt hot.
I knelt down as I felt my body drain from the intense pain that followed.
“Kuk…”
I looked down at my side, which had been completely ripped open and blood was pouring out of it.
I didn’t even have time to activate the floating veil because I couldn’t react to the attack at all.
At that moment, I heard the monster’s voice.
“What are you? Why can’t you block an attack like this when your soul level is so high?”
Gulleong!
The blood that flowed from me floated in the air and moved to him.
Soon, a voice full of joy filled the cavity.
“Well, it’s okay. The blood of someone as high as you can bring my body back to life! I can get out of this damn place and finally go out into the world again! Hehe! Hehahahaha!”
Hearing a buzzing sound in my ears, I raised my head.
He sucked up all the blood he had taken from me and began to greedily absorb it.
The more he did, the more his body repeated expansion and contraction as if it were revitalized, and a huge energy swirled around him.
I was dizzy from the pain, but I couldn’t help but burst out laughing at the sight.
After drinking all of my blood, the guy with a face full of elation tilted his head.
“What’s so funny?”
I barely opened my mouth and squeezed out my voice.
“Thank you for being so considerate…”
“What?”
“Die.”
Poof.
The monster’s body collapsed, and the energy that filled the cavity disappeared at once.
