Episode 104. the one and only
‘… wait for a sec.’
At that time, a thought passed through Kim Jin-seong’s head.
‘If it’s true that you’re absorbing my demon energy… .’
When I thought about that, one of the monsters fired a black laser at Jinseong Kim once again.
Kim Jin-seong, who saw that, did not dodge it, but instead released the magic shield around his body.
The laser hit Jinseong Kim’s body as it was.
‘… does not it hurt.’
Despite receiving the laser treatment from start to finish, Kim Jin-seong did not feel any pain.
Even a notification window like this appeared in front of my eyes.
▶ I absorbed demonic energy.
▶ Obtained 5 Vis Creama points.
Jinseong Kim’s eyes lit up when he saw the contents of the notification window.
‘As expected, those guys are made of demonic energy with the same nature as my demonic energy.’
These were monsters that took no damage at all from attacks containing their own magical energy.
Therefore, on the contrary, Kim Jin-seong, who had a devil constitution, also judged that he would not receive damage from the monsters’ magic attacks.
I took the risk and allowed the attack, but not only did I not take any damage, but I also gained Vis Crimea points.
Just like those monsters that absorbed their attacks a moment ago and became stronger.
‘Now it’s clear. then… .’
Jinseong Kim soon changed his mana properties.
Then he stretched out his palm towards the monsters.
Soon, a huge fireball was created on the palm of the hand, and it was launched towards the direction where the monsters were gathered.
Quang!
A huge explosion of fire swept through the entire passageway.
As the smoke in the aftermath of the explosion cleared little by little, the monsters appeared in Kim Jin-seong’s eyes.
The bodies of the black monsters engulfed in flames began to burn, and their size gradually decreased.
Considering that it grew in size and went wild when attacked by demonic energy, it seemed certain that it had taken some damage now.
‘As expected, you take damage from mana attacks of a different nature.’
Kim Jin-seong, who figured out how to kill the monsters in front of him, soon created a huge firestorm centered around the monsters.
Hwiee~!
The black monsters caught up in the firestorm became noticeably smaller and smaller, and soon completely disappeared.
At the same time, a notification window appears in front of Kim Jin-seong’s eyes.
▶ You have defeated the monster.
▶ Obtained 150 Vis Creama points.
▶ Acquired the opposing monster’s characteristic, ‘A being made of demonic energy.’
▷ Being made of demonic energy: When attacking with demonic energy, damage increases by 10%, and when absorbing demonic energy, HP and MP are slightly recovered.
‘… huh? ‘You’re giving me 150 points?’
Kim Jin-seong’s eyes widened slightly at the larger-than-expected figure.
I didn’t expect to get a lot of points because it was an easier monster to deal with than I thought, but I ended up getting a lot more points than I expected.
‘Is it because my entire body is made of demonic energy…? ?’
I’m not sure why, but either way, it was a good thing for Kim Jin-seong.
‘If I do this, I will be able to replenish my points quickly, right?’
Jinseong Kim thought to himself as he looked at the same demonic monster in the distance.
Already, while dealing with Shinwoong, I had used up almost all of the points I had accumulated while hunting Quagmire.
So, I was in a situation where I had to earn a lot of points from the beginning, and it seemed like I could collect a lot of points as planned just by defeating these Magi monsters.
* * *
‘… ‘There are three paths.’
Kim Jin-seong, who continued to walk along the passage while killing monsters, soon reached a fork in the road.
Left, center, right. Kim Jin-seong spread his palms as he looked at the passage extending in three directions.
‘In cases like this, it would be better to use the surveillance eye to scout first.’
He held out his palms toward the sky. It was a posture to summon watchful eyes.
The plan was to send the three summoned hawks, one into each passage, and then select a passage that was not dead and move toward it.
It was then.
‘… huh?’
Suddenly, I felt like there were a lot of creatures gathered beyond that wall.
Kim Jin-seong, who absorbed the ‘position detection’ trait, the ‘vibration detection’ trait, and the ‘mana controller’ trait, was able to detect creatures much further away than before.
As soon as the creatures were detected, Kim Jin-seong’s ears began to hear a very small but noisy sound.
The sounds caught in his eardrums, which have become sensitive due to his ‘sensitive hearing’ characteristic… .
“Ahh!”
“I am a servant of the demon world! “Don’t block the attack, just avoid it!”
“shit! Swordsmanship doesn’t work at all… . “Ahh!”
It was the sound of fighting.
Just by listening, I could see how desperately the participants were fighting against the monsters.
‘hmm… .’
Kim Jin-seong, who thought for a moment after hearing the sound, soon went under his shadow.
At the same time, something like a huge black hole was created around the shadow.
The warp hole skill was used.
15 seconds later, Jinseong Kim, who created the exit, entered the warp hole.

Kim Jin-seong, who came out of the exit, began to see the sounds of the battle he had heard a little while ago.
“Damn it! go away!”
The damage to the participants was already serious.
Two of them had turned into charred corpses, as if they had been burned to death, and the remaining one was swinging his sword repeatedly at the three bipedal monsters.
However, the monster’s appearance was unusual.
‘It’s burning?’
Unlike the monsters made of demonic energy that I had seen so far, the monster in front of me was not demonic, but its entire body was on fire.
‘Are they made of fire mana? then… .’
Jinseong Kim immediately changed his mana properties.
Jinseong Kim, who changed his nature to frozen mana, spread his palms towards the monsters.
Soon, mana with the properties of cold water began to sway in his palm.
‘After all, water is the best to put out a fire.’
Jinseong Kim immediately extended both palms towards the flame monsters in front.
Then, a huge water whirlwind was created centered on the flame monster.
The fire monsters caught up in the water whirlwind began to shrink at a rapid rate and then disappeared in an instant.
▶ You have defeated the monster.
▶ Obtained 150 Vis Creama points.
▶ Acquired the opposing monster’s characteristic ‘being made of flame’.
▷ Being made of flame: When attacking with flame mana, damage increases by 10%, and when absorbing flame mana, HP and MP are slightly restored.
‘… If this is the case, there are also monsters made of mana of different nature.’
That was when Kim Jin-seong thought that far.
“omg! Ki, Jinseong Kim… !”
The only surviving participant looked at Kim Jin-seong and was startled.
Then he bowed deeply as if he were using a flip phone and greeted me.
“Thank you, Jinseong! My name is Lee Ji-seong! Thank you so much for your help… uh?”
Ji-seong Lee’s behavior, which had been constantly bowing, suddenly became stiff.
He confirmed that Kim Jin-seong was coming towards him.
An expressionless face, and a long sword in his right hand… .
‘… ‘No way!’
Ji-seong Lee’s face turned white. This is because no matter who saw it, she looked like she was coming to kill herself.
“Now, wait a minute! Please listen to me! I know very well about that demon dungeon! “I once worked in the New World as part of a body disposal unit for a short time!”
Lee Ji-seong began to persuade Kim Jin-seong by pouring out words in a rapid-fire manner while being filled with fear.
There was no thought of resistance in his mind.
This was because he knew very well that even if he tried to rebel against Kim Jin-seong, who was the only surviving participant who had entered the state of divine energy union, he would not be able to even touch a single hair.
“If you let me live, I am confident that I will be of great help to Jinseong! So please just this once… Ugh, ugh!”
When Kim Jin-seong, who was right in front of him, stretched out his hand toward him, Lee Ji-seong was shocked and sat down in his place.
Kim Jin-seong’s hand went down towards Lee Ji-seong, who was sitting down… .
‘… what?’
It was only after Ji-seong Lee saw him searching through the bag that another participant’s corpse was carrying that he was able to stop shaking.
‘what? I didn’t mean to kill you… ?’
Whether Ji-seong Lee thought so or not, Jin-seong Kim seemed to be concentrating on taking out the items in the body bag.
Kim Jin-seong thought as he took out only the food, mainly groceries, and put it in his bag.
‘We don’t know how long it will take to escape the labyrinth, so let’s pack some food.’
Only after packing all the food and other items in the bags of the two corpses did Kim Jin-seong stand up.
Ji-seong Lee, who until then had been staring at him blankly as if possessed,
‘… huh?’
He soon came to his senses after seeing Kim Jin-seong’s eyes staring at him.
He remembered what he had to do now.
“Ah yes! Just move this way!”
He got up quickly and told Kim Jin-seong the direction of the passage he needed to move to.
Kim Jin-seong walked towards him without answering, and Lee Ji-seong appeared to be urgently following behind him.
But soon enough, Kim Jin-seong had no choice but to stop.
‘… Is it lava?’
The hot red liquid filling the floor of the wide, sloping passage ahead was the first thing Jinseong Kim saw.
The next thing I saw was numerous human-shaped flame monsters casually walking around on the lava.
“These are the demonic minions who attacked me and my group earlier. “Three of them were standing at the entrance to this lava field and ran towards us.”
I heard Ji-seong Lee’s voice explaining something from behind.
“First, we need to find a way to cross this lava field. “In my experience, there must be a secret switch nearby that changes the environment.”
“… … .”
“I’ll look for the right wall, Jinseong, look for the left… .”
When he said that, Jinseong Kim suddenly moved.
“… … !!”
At the same time, Ji-seong Lee’s eyes widened.
Kim Jin-seong, who came into his sight, was now floating in the air and flying over the lava field.
It was a possible action due to Seoldown’s ‘mana control’ characteristic, but the sight of Kim Jin-seong flying around came as a huge shock to Lee Ji-seong, who did not know that.
‘That’s a person… ?’
Shoot!!
At that time, the sound of something pouring was heard from the front.
In fact, a suddenly created waterfall was pouring down on the heads of the surrounding fire monsters.
The power of the waterfall was enormous.
Not only are the flame monsters being extinguished at a rapid rate, but the lava covering the floor of the passage has also begun to cool.
After a while, the entire lava field cooled completely and solidified. Now it has turned into a basalt area where it is no problem to walk on two feet.
‘oh my god… .’
Ji-seong Lee, who had not been able to close his mouth until then, started running over the basalt rock to catch up with Jin-seong Kim who was moving away.
* * *
That time.
Hong Yeon-seok, the Daehan Clan Hunter team leader who was standing near the dungeon portal, was receiving a report from someone through his earphones.
“… I get it.”
He immediately approached the nearby Yonghan Road and reported in a quiet voice.
“It is said that Kim Jin-seong is about to reach the target location.”
“Execute as planned.”
“yes.”
As soon as the employee answered, he immediately turned on the microphone on the earphones and gave instructions to his fellow hunters in a low voice while covering his mouth with one hand.
“Prepare to open the dimensional rift.”
