Turns Out To Be a Genius Duelist

"Third Hell: We've arrived at the Maw.

Increases all kinds of pain 20 times

A parched, cracked land.

There is a stream of brown lava through the cracks.

Yoon-suk looked up at the sky.

There was darkness, no sun, no moon, no stars.

On the other hand, the lava flowing through the ground, contrasted with darkness, shined more clearly.

"Challengers other than the Horsemen. The Grand Duke of the Abyss curses you.

Movement Speed is reduced by 50% and all stats are reduced by -2

"The curse is lifted by the light of purification.

The curse was lifted without the Heart of Liberty. Well, once you turn off the light of purification, you will be cursed again....

I don't want to turn it off anyway, so nothing's gonna change.

“ ……. ”

Yoon-suk looked around.

A crevice in the cracked ground, a burning corpse under the lava, is crawling up. There seemed to be at least hundreds, not one.

However…….

‘This is a good imagination. ’

Tsk, tsk!

As soon as the light of purification touches, the corpses melt and become ashes.

‘You're giving me water. ’

However, the size of the integer was small compared to the maze.

However, the number was overwhelming and there was no need to wield the sword...

I like it.

I didn't have to waste my time picking them up every day. Yun Seok manipulated the blood marker and loaded it into a fallen tribal bag.

While you're at it, the portal closes.

How do we get back to where we were?

The answer was kindly given by the system.

"Kill the Grand Duke of the Abyss.

I'm not saying the return portal is open....

By the way, if you achieve that goal, you will do whatever you can.

So where do we go to meet the Duke of the Abyss?

Yoon-seok checked the map from time to time and walked out in a direction that reaches his feet.

And then I did.

“Human? Why are humans here? ”

“… Take advantage! Catch this and I'll give you treasure! ”

You met with Orcs, Lizardmen, and a party of three that included the Devil.

I was a challenger.

Maybe it's an exploration trial.

‘Somehow I didn't see the Mages, but the map is completely different. ’

It looks like this is how the Horses were divided in the mission...

I don't think I'll believe it even if I find myself the same challenger because I've already seen my eyes gleaming with greed.

No, believe it or not, there's a good chance they're just going to kill him.

All the horses Yoon-suk met were like that. They are the boundaries of many challengers in the square and rarely come to the square.

“Die!”

The Orc slashes the yolk with a giant axe.

A stabbing that relies solely on strength.

But teamwork was pretty good.

The moment Yoon-suk stepped aside and dodged, Lizardman grabbed his twin swords and rushed to the side.

Profit!

Caucasian!

I didn't have to move the sword to stop it.

He creates a blood horse, throws it out, blocking it, and throws it back down with resistance.

"The Heart of Liberty will render the restraining technology ineffective.

The Devil is standing back, using some skill, but unfortunately, his kind is not good.

The demon rushes to join the ranks as the technology fails. Surprisingly, the weapon was a fork raised from the back of the hand.

What, so all three are warriors? ’

Unlike the parties of Humans, Demibeasts, and Elves.

They were systematically divided into occupational groups, while all three were close relatives.

Honestly, I don't even know why I'd throw a party and move like this....

‘It must be hard to move alone in such a wide open place. ’

Soon, Yoon-suk focused on defending himself.

I was confident of finishing the battle in the blink of an eye, but before that, I wanted to see what they had.

“The Second Coming of the Ghost! ”

“Explosive!”

“An electroencephalogram!”

They took out all the skills they had, as expected, when Yoon-suk wasn't easily beaten.

If I had something I liked, I would have dragged it to the Arena...

‘I don't need to see it anymore. ’

Squeaker!

In the end, Yoon-suk, who didn't feel any interest in them, slit his head with his sword.

I couldn't bear the pain of dying with a dagger.

‘Well, we'll have another chance. ’

Soon, Yoon-suk took the essence they left and put it in his bag.

There were so many sheep that I thought they were hunting hard and shooting well as Yoon-seok.

‘Let's move quickly. ’

After experiencing exploration, Yoon-suk set two goals.

Opening a secret space, getting equipment related items, and filling a one-ton sub-space bag with essence.

Essence, I thought I would achieve my target by the 15th day naturally, but the former was not, so I had to hurry.

It was time for me to run around for a long time and fill my bag with the essences.

Suddenly, Yoon-seok stopped walking.

‘Avatar.’

Come to think of it, it's not an ant's nest like a maze.

The void is endless.

This place is dark enough to be called Abyssal, but the lava flowing through the ground produces light, so it will be easier to search if you look up from above.

Hooray! Hooray!

Yoon-suk flapped his wings, piercing the darkness and climbing up.

One day soon, I was in a different situation than I expected.

The darkness here was not merely the absence of light.

10m, 20m, 30m…….

The higher you go, the higher the density of darkness becomes.

I had no choice but to say so.

In fact, the extent to which the light of purification was illuminated was gradually narrowed, and I looked down and saw nothing.

Visibility is only within 10 meters or so.

It's absurd to think of the glow of lava on the ground. Even the pressure seemed to have risen out of nowhere.

‘Eventually, I have to run on two legs. ’

When I thought about it, I was going back down to the ground.

Something swims in the dark.

‘... There's still magic here? ’

It was like a shark-like magic object with only bones and leather left.

Or should I say megalodons?

I don't know how it floats in the air without wings, but it's enormous.

Pull out your sword and be vigilant for a while.

He turns only his tip like a hunter after his prey to see if he can't come where the light is.

‘Let's catch it first. ’

Yun Seok lightly shot at him around the sword.

But…….

"What, so hard? ’

It wasn't a power strike, but it was a bit surprising that there were only scratches.

Do they get buff in the dark?

Suddenly, I thought about it and quickly approached it to belong to the radius of light.

Then...

Screaming!

I cut it in half as neatly as a whirlpool with a sashimi knife.

Whether the life force itself was tough or not, as soon as the two cavities were formed, the corpse turned to dust and blew away.

Then the essence falls out.

The eyes of Yun Seok, who had been operating the hematoma to prevent it from falling down, opened wide.

It was surprising that it was a magic object that was really made for hunting....

What's so big about essences? ’

The essence almost punched me.

Given the size of the nails, the magic in the maze was truly ridiculous.

‘It didn't seem that different.... ’

Maybe it was topographical.

At least when I was in the dark, I took Yoon-suk's blow without hesitation.

Yoon Seok smiled, who had packed all the essences into his bag.

He must have caught a rat while walking behind a cow....

It seemed to be a good visit.

‘Maybe the darkness itself is some kind of secret space. ’

Of course, I felt like I was being too public with the secret space.

One messy challenger has no means of coming up like this. Even if he did, he wouldn't be able to give us a 1-meter radius of lanterns.

‘Cause once there's light, it looks safe. Let's keep going up. ’

Yoon-suk slowly flapped his wings and climbed up.

I lost my sense of distance because of the darkness all around me, and I could feel my wings moving from place to place…….

As the radius of light gradually diminishes, you can see that you are going in the right direction.

It was when the range of light spread out decreased and became within a radius of 3 meters or more.

“Go back to where you belong. An unclean sinner.”

A man's voice is heard from above, with a dull yet oddly majestic echo.

At the same time, a great sword flew out of the darkness.

Literally the whole point of sending it back.

The Great Sword aims for its wings instead of its neck.

Ka Kang!

And the first sight that bloomed when the sword was taken was heavy.

Quite a bit.

‘Might be stronger than a dizzy Duel Challenger……. ’

But that's just it.

Instead of being pushed, it can be easily overwhelmed.

Even in the dark, Yoonseok flew towards the mysterious existence that flashed a white light.

“ ……? ”

The darkness clears as the distance narrows. In addition to the Great Sword, you can see the opposing Pokémon's appearance with both eyes.

It was a little different from what I expected.

A helmet that hides the entire face except for the eyes, pure armor with only a gold trim. Most importantly, the white wings on the back.

If the angel hadn't come to mind at the first glance, he would be lying. It was radiating from the whole body, even into a sacred atmosphere, out of nowhere.

Isn't that a little conceptual? ’

A place called Hell.

A creature with a camouflage to find it deep in the darkness filled with strange magic.

‘It doesn't matter. ’

It was just a slight flaw in appearance that was different from expected.

Yoon-suk swings his sword at the target.

“How can a sinner do this...! Did the Grand Duke send you? ”

Yoon-suk didn't answer.

I wielded my sword one more time at a time.

Boom, boom! Boom, boom!

The user senses an overwhelming difference in power as the sword hits the target, and flees upward.

And Yoon-suk continued to persist.

The more the radius of light decreases and the pressure felt also increases exponentially…….

It was okay. Not yet.

“Enough! Stop it! Do you really want to be extinct? ”

I'm not sure if this side will vanish, and I wonder how much essence it will take to kill the opposing Pokémon.

Honestly, I think we're at the boss's level by now, but I didn't know you'd get a special reward.

Boom, boom! Boom!

Yoon-suk continued to chase up and fired his sword.

And I was about to put a fist of contrition into the void that suddenly appeared in the dark.

"Pioneer of Perforation" Achievement achieved.

The Darkness is gone.

The light of purification spread out as it had originally spread, and the pressure was no longer transmitted.

A space filled with white light that seems to blink for a moment.

I never expected to find such a place in the dark.

Yoon-suk protected the whole body with a hematoma.

Using this gap, the user expects the opposing Pokémon to attack.

But…….

“Oh, why! Can you not vanish even if you set foot in the heavens? ”

The opposing Pokémon's gaze is startled, just facing each other.

“… the kingdom of heaven? ”

Well, it's hell below. Is it heaven above?

Yoon-suk watches his opponent and looks beyond.

Like floating on a cloud, a white fortress was built magnificently on an empty space.

Seeing Yoon-suk like that, the opposing team opens their mouths.

“You... weren't a sinner of the Abyss. ”

The user lowers the opposing Pokémon's blade.

“I am Sethiel, protector of the heavenly realm. What is your name? Why were you trapped in the abyss when you were not a sinner? ”

Somehow I feel like I need to have a conversation.

Yoon-suk also gave up on fighting.

I had to.

Setiel, the guardian of the heavenly world.

Hundreds are thought to have similar powers.

No, he was running this way with thousands of wings flapping.

Should we just run away? ’

I thought it might not be too late now....

“If there was a mistake on our part, I'll make it up to you. ”

I was deeply troubled by Sethiel's polite voice.

The word reward caught my attention, to be exact.

... What do I do?
