Demon King

Chapter 20. Freshman's Battlefield 1

[I became a body blessed by Mana. All enchantments are amplified.]

[All movements become lighter and more stealthy.]

[Very sensitive to blood. Increases the effectiveness of all Blood related skills and artifacts. Exposure to large amounts of blood increases Combat Strength and Recovery. However, if you are not exposed to blood, your strength is rapidly weakened.]

[Advanced Martial Arts is Lv6.]

[Intermediate Lunatic Trickster is Lv8.]

[Medium Flame Magic becomes Lv10 and evolves into Advanced Flame Magic. It will consume more magical power and ignite a massive fire.]

[Lesser Shadow Step becomes Lv10 and evolves into Intermediate Shadow Step. Everything is more discreet and quiet.]

[Intermediate Heilang...]

I swung my hand against all the popping alerts. Then, Lee Chan Yuk, who was still cautious of me, along with the three Hellhounds that were flanking him.

“Fate.”

“…… Is this about the commander? I didn't hear you say there was someone else besides me. ”

“I'm Fate. ”

I said so, casting out a shadow of blood. No, the blood's baptism and the lower reaper's cloak are also shrinking to fit my body. Why don't you recognize them?

Lee Chan Yook stared blankly.

“The commander?”

“Yes."

No, I didn't think so. If you show them the artifact, you can charge them with murder and theft. After showing me a few skills, I had no choice but to make sense of it even if I didn't want to.

However, his surprised expression rarely subsided.

“You really jumped the bell. ”

“I've been promoted from a regular monster at once... No, I've never changed. ”

I realized it instead of talking. As warned in the notification window of special evolution, this was a little far from a promotion. In other words, it was like I was on a new starting point based on the record that had been running so far.

I was hoping that I might become a superior monster, but my life was not that bad. I've grown into many things, but my strength has decreased quite a bit.

This is a superior monster? If I combined all my abilities, I wouldn't be able to hunt great monsters, but I couldn't do that on a purely physical level.

It wasn't even a monster. If this is what the inhabitants of Haiter called it on the previous Earth...... it was a Demihuman.

“Long, pointy ears, annoyingly ugly face. Commander, are you... an Elf? ”

“I guess so.”

The elf had a terrible prefix of Crimson in front of the words, but it was clearly an Elf. Lee Chan Yuk made a very unacceptable face.

“It's not evolution, it's rebirth! The Demon King has turned into a warrior. ”

“I prefer the Demon King. ”

I gave Lee Chan Yuk a deep rebuke and shined my face on the clean sword of the Blood Shadow. And I lost my words for a moment.

By holding a face close to a human being, even if you go out into the human community?

Because you look thin and fragile, unlike the horrible face of the Bugbear era?

You were both hit. But there was another reason I was most surprised.

“What's the matter? ”

“This……. ”

It reminded me of when I met El. When I was too close to her, my soul reflected in her eyes. The man I could never say was human.

The image was now revealed on the blade of the Blood Shadow. Black hair from the shoulder to the shoulder, red and dark eyes like blood.

It was only that the skin was closer to red than black.

“Captain, were you ever so handsome? ”

“No way. It was below average in Korea. ”

“Damn, even if I was reborn as a werewolf, my face was still the same. ”

Pleasure, yes, there was.

I even heard the idea that if I had two long ears and red skin, I could go back to human society.

It's a shame I lost my giant, strong body to Bugbear, but I should be about six inches tall by now. He returned to a realm similar to that of man.

Moreover, he was more eloquent than most humans, and he was quite handsome according to the word "beautiful species" we often know.

I bought it if I wanted to impress you with my first impression, but I don't think I'll have to buy hostility.

But there was no greater joy than I thought.

I thought about why, and soon I realized.

Because I had no intention of returning to human society until I conquered this dungeon.

Moreover, there was a certainty that if it evolved over and over, it would become something close to humans, and of course, something had to happen. It was just surprising that I became an Elf among many factions.

There is a mysterious tribe named Crimson Elf that I don't know about, but it doesn't matter now. This wasn't the end for me either.

I became a monster, but I had no idea that there would be limits to my evolution. Not yet. I will go further. Time to settle down...

At that time, Lee Chan Yook suddenly spit out.

“That look again. ”

“The look on your face is quite different from when you were a Bugbear. ”

“It was easy to recognize when you were a Bugbear, but now that you look like a human, you can see it clearly. ”

“…… What was that look on your face? ”

Lee Chan Yuk said, filling the nostrils with wrinkles.

“You look like you've got the whole world to yourself. ”

“ ……. ”

“If something good happens, it gets serious from the next moment. How much time do you have left? Be happy when you're happy. Come on. We're rolling in a dungeon like this, and we're rolling in the future, but we don't have the right to be happy about it. ”

“But there's still a lot of dungeons left. I'm still weak. ”

“Just because you put pressure on yourself every second doesn't mean you get stronger faster, right? If you don't keep warning yourself, you're not weak enough to be careless, are you? ”

I kept my mouth shut, not trying to argue.

Do you think Lee Chan Yoo doesn't know my heart? A werewolf who turned out to be a werewolf and somehow managed to survive in a human society, got his nest destroyed, lost all his comrades?

You're welcome. He said to himself, "The wrath of the world can't be worse than mine." It would have been so painful and painful that my heart would have rotted.

And yet he does not lose his smile. However, it did not lighten his mind. He tried desperately and actually got stronger.

Yeah, he's right.

Just because the reality is dark doesn't mean I have to be dark all the time. Why have I been forgetting that simple thing so far?

“Commander.”

Lee Chan Yuk tapped my shoulder. His face, which he had to look down upon when he was a Bugbear, was now in the position I had to look up to.

“Congratulations on evolution. Crush the dungeons, get Zola strong and get out. ”

“…… Yes, thank you. ”

I struggled with a bloody smile. I held on to something like a little tear coming out.

I was really fortunate to be with Lee Chan Yuk.

[Fade]

[Crimson Elf Lv90]

[Strength – 609 HP – 718 MP – 828 Luck]

[Skill – Dark Heart, Predatory Lv5, Advanced Martial Arts Lv6, Intermediate Lunatic Trickster Lv8, Intermediate Armor Defense Lv8, Advanced Regeneration Lv5, Intermediate Power Attack Lv7, Intermediate Speed Attack Lv7, Advanced Detection Lv7, Epic Surprise Lv9, Advanced Coin Lv4, Intermediate Shadow Step Lv1, Epic Ubiquitous Lv7, Epic Tongue Lv4, Phase

Abnormal Resistance Lv4, Beginner Speaker Lv8, Beginner Madness Noise Lv5, Lesser Stone Skin Lv2, Intermediate Height Lv5, Advanced Flame Magic Lv1, Lesser Healing Magic Lv2, Lesser Water Magic Lv2, Lesser Ice Magic Lv1]

Status' change was extreme. Strength has decreased dramatically by 140 and stamina has increased slightly. Magic power, on the other hand, increased by over 300.

Of course, 600 is a figure that was not lacking to fight monsters on the fourth floor. Instead of decreasing strength, it is a problem to strengthen your skills with increased magical strength, but you will also have to work hard to adapt to different physical abilities for a while.

This is not because Crimson Elves were originally weak in strength, but perhaps because Bugbear was an overly powerful monster. Especially since Bugbear is fast, but very strong.

In fact, as I moved my body, my power was reduced, but my speed was slightly faster. It's also because your body is lighter, and it's probably because you've developed muscles that focus on speeding up faster than Bugbear.

Skill changes were even more impressive. Almost all skills grew little by little overall, but the magic side was quite transformative.

Particularly, I was glad that the majority of the magic that was staying at the beginner level had reached a low level in no time. Of course, domination is an advanced level of flame magic.

The quest also appeared. However, the content made me feel confused.

[Quest Occurred!]

[You started walking a different path from anyone else. The genealogy is still weak, but the outcome will depend on your karma.]

[Black Palace Zone 7 Zone 4F Monster Hunt & Predatory 0/50,000]

[Cursed White Hunt Predatory 0/50]

[Durahan Hunt Predatory 0/1]

[Jinma Tower 3rd Floor Conquest 0/1]

[Garden of Delights 2nd Game Victory 0/1]

Monsters appearing in the Black Palace 4F, yes. It was the Undead!

Of course, there were monsters other than the undead, and I didn't notice them at first because there weren't any undead at the entrance, but it was just a ruse to deceive those who entered the dungeon. The deeper you go into the dungeon, the stronger the undead will appear.

Tightened.

I sharpened my teeth as I recalled the undead appearing on the second floor of Jinma's Tower. It fits very well.

It's not because she hates me. No, of course he hates me, but apart from that, the trial on the second floor of Jinma's Tower was indispensable. That's why before I went down to the fourth floor, I made it possible to eat the undead!

Now I am convinced that the Black Palace is a place that has ties to A, B and L.

“So.”

He explained the results of the reconnaissance and said as if Lee Chon Yuk was annoyed. He, who didn't usually wear a weapon, was now wearing a silver flashing cloak in one hand.

A weapon designed to kill the Undead, he explained, with a certain level of abilities in their inventory. If it had been there, I wouldn't have had to struggle with it in Jinma's tower. No, maybe she stopped using it somehow.

“We should regularly return to the entrance of the fourth floor to get food. So, I was wondering if you could get some food from the store where the commander can enter. ”

“Of course you can. I don't need mine. ”

“Why?”

“That's it.”

I grabbed the Fang of Blood and threw it into the flames of a Throwing Skill, Power Attack, and Heilang. A fang of blood shot faster than a bullet pierces the skull of a ghoul that was stirring up its body from one end of the passageway, far away.

From my hand to the fangs of blood, the whips of Heilang were stretching and connecting hundreds of meters, and as I pulled them, I was dragged to the gull of blood stuck in my head.

After retrieving the Fangs of Blood and Ghouls not too long ago, I noticed that there was no chance of his resurrection yet. Lee Choon Yuk shakes his head and lifts up the claw in his hand, but I shake my hand tremblingly.

“You don't have to use that weapon. ”

“Captain, no? ”

“No, it's not. ”

“Thank goodness.”

“Your right mind is not the answer. ”

“It wasn't me!? Why do you keep saying that? ”

I chewed the ghoul on the spot. As the Elves evolved into smaller mouths, it took a little longer, but it wasn't that hard.

After turning the energy of death into a clean breath of life, EXP and money came in. More than the regular monsters on the third floor, but less than the upper class.

The ghoul died without a beat, and the third and fourth floors did not show such a significant difference in difficulty.

[Black Palace District 7, Part 4F Monster Hunt & Predatory 1/50,000]

I licked his mouth and turned to him. There was already not a single fleshy spot left in my hand.

“Here.”

“You're not proud of me, are you? Please think about my position when I saw the Elves eating the ghouls in front of my eyes...! ”

The expedition on the fourth floor was smooth. My body was light and the monsters couldn't catch me anymore. The undead were able to eat as much as they wanted, so there was no need to worry about food or become undead. Lee Chon Yuk struggled because he couldn't eat the undead.

And time passed.

At the time of entering the fourth floor, the clock of the community clock was fifty times, so about 25 days had passed.

[Level Up!]

I became a level 100. It was so hard to level up from 99 to 1 that I thought for a moment that this was the limit.

However, the gear level has increased. I still have a little bit of evolution left, but I also felt a little bit of pleasure that the level units had changed.

[You are now able to enter the new person's battlefield.]

And every time fate hit me on the back.
