Solo Leveling- Ragnarok

Chapter 152: Chapter 152

...

Ahhh!

Hwang Dong-seok.

His soul was screaming in the dark, shedding bloody tears.

His entire body, except for his face, was bound in blood-stained chains.

The chain not only wrapped itself around his body, but also passed through his soul, or was rooted at one end.

This chain was the curse of punishment that Harmakan engraved on Chalcolitha's soul and the prison of his sins in which he would remain locked up for eternity even after his death.

Ahhh...!

Hwang Dong-seok cries out in pain.

There was no way his soul could escape this infinite pain.

All he can do is.

Screaming.

Crying.

suffering.

All I could do was grit my teeth and shed bloody tears in this hellish prison that was squeezing my soul to the limit.

It was then.

-Get up.

Finally, a voice of salvation was heard above his head, calling to his soul.

Hwang Dong-seok raised his head, shedding bloody tears.

Patter.

At that moment, the chain broke.

Harmakan's curse, which seemed to last forever, was dissipating.

The limbs were liberated.

Hwang Dong-seok raised his body.

but.

Ahhh...!

The bloody tears did not stop flowing from his eyes.

The chain of curse was broken, but the prison of sin that imprisoned him was still constricting his soul.

Armor of evil spirits.

The Death Knight's Curse was specially created by Harmakan to trap evil spirits.

Even though the chain of this armor was broken, it still squeezed Dongseok Chalk's soul to the limit and caused him terrible pain.

But to a Death Knight, pain is power itself.

Ironically, in proportion to the pain Hwang Dong-seok felt, the armor he was wearing became stronger.

so that....

[Shadow Slave Lv.1]

elite level

The spirit of Hwang Dong-seok, wearing the armor of an evil spirit, rose from the shadows, shedding bloody tears.

He became a shadow soldier, but the pain he felt remained, and the number of evil spirits like him gradually increased.

[Shadow Slave Lv.1]

[Shadow Slave Lv.1]

[Shadow Slave Lv.1]

....

Ahhh!

Full body armor with swirling black vapor.

Terrible screams came out from the mouths of dozens of Death Knights wearing evil spirit armor created by Harmakan.

It was a cry of pain and at the same time a roar of anger towards Harmakan, who had dressed them in such terrible armor.

"Full force attack."

At that moment, an order from the guardian was given to them.

[Kaaaa!]

[Kaaaaaa-!]

Harmakan could not help but be taken aback by their fierce, fierce attacks.

"Oh my... ...!"

Harmakan hurriedly summoned ghosts to counter their attacks.

Sigh!

At the same time, he pulled out Volkan's horn that was stuck in his body, and blood spurted out.

Harmakan formed a water hole in the air with the blood and shouted a curse.

"You evil spirits who dare to rebel against me! "Cursed be you all!"

At that moment, the bloody smell spread all around him.

[Harmacan, the war chief of the Demonic Tribe, uses 'Skill: Damage Amplification.']

[Increases the damage received by those cursed.]

[Even a normal attack will result in fatal wounds.]

'Amplification of damage?'

Suho's eyebrows rose as the system messages appeared one after another.

Harmakan's curse was applied to all shadow soldiers.

Then, the attacks of his ghosts began to cause much greater damage to the shadow soldiers.

At the same time, Harmakan unleashed a new curse.

"The land of death will come here!"

[Harmacan, the war chief of the Demonic Tribe, uses 'Skill: Exploitation.']

[Harmakan recovers health equal to 2% of the damage inflicted on the opponent.]

Shwaaagh!

Then, whenever the ghosts attacked the shadow soldiers, Harmakan's wounds from Volkan's horn began to heal quickly.

Ber was amazed by the amazing appearance and shouted to Suho.

[Solord! This guy is good at curses!]

"I know. "The connection is quite good."

Should I call him the great chief of a tribe?

A curse that amplifies damage and then absorbs a certain amount of the amplified damage.

It was a fairly annoying connection.

but.

"It means nothing to me."

Suho looked at the messages that appeared in front of him with a meaningful smile on his face.

[A curse has been detected.]

[The treatment begins with the effect of 'Blessing: Healthy Longevity'.]

[3, 2, 1...The task has been completed.]

—

Shwaaak!

Harmakan's curse that resided in Suho's body was instantly washed away and disappeared.

The blessing received from Kandiaru, the great shaman of the Demon Race, 'Healthy Longevity', has overcome the curse of Harmacan, the Great Chief of the Demon Race.

"It is clear which of the two is superior."

At the same time, Harmakan also noticed this and looked at Suho with an expression of astonishment.

"Candiaru's blessing?! As expected, you are related to the Shadow Lord! Could it be his successor!"

It was a surprise at first, but soon Harmakan began to feast on Suho with eyes filled with greed.

"Hehe! Is there such a windfall? "I thought today would only be a loss, but I never thought I would discover such valuable research material!"

That moment.

Whioooooooo!

All the ghosts around Harmakan were swirled around and sucked in.

At the same time, Harmakan's momentum began to grow bigger and bigger in front of the guardian.

Crumbling!

[Harmacan, the war chief of the demon race, appears.]

"...!"

Harmakan escaped from the body of the head of Yamiri Village, who was possessed by him, and revealed his true form!

[Gaaaa!]

[Gaaaaaa!]

At that moment, the Death Knights and shadow slave soldiers who were freed from the ghosts rushed at him all at once with explosive force.

...Quang!

Surprisingly, all of them were bounced back by a repulsive force that exceeded the momentum of the rush.

"Hahaha!"

At the center of it all, a strange energy was swirling around the body of Harmacan, who was bursting out laughing.

[Harmacan, the war chief of the Demonic Tribe, uses 'Skill: Thorn of Pain.']

[All pain and damage Harmacan receives is shared with the attacking target.]

"A thorn of pain?"

As the shadow slave soldiers were instantly annihilated with just one blow, Suho frowned.

'It's a skill that reflects the damage received and returns it to you.'

Of course, Harmakan himself could not be safe from pain and damage.

But the problem is amplification of damage and exploitation.

The curse skill used before was the problem.

'You share the pain, but you increase the damage your opponent receives by amplifying damage, and at the same time, you recover with exploitation skills?'

Isn't the linking of skills truly extremely efficient?

"..."He's a really fun guy."

Suho chuckled and pushed back all the shadow slave soldiers who were repairing their damaged bodies.

And after he ordered all the shadow soldiers to kill the Harmakan Death Knights that were still swarming the village.

"Esil!"

Now that he has discovered the boss mob, he decides to go all out on this side as well.

Shwaaagh!

Volkan's horn, which Harmacan had pulled out of his body and thrown away, flew through the air and was caught by the guardian's hand.

Esil, who heard Suho's call and rushed over, cast spirit form without saying a word.

[Volkan's horn feasts on the devil's soul.]

[Equip 'Item: Volkan's Horn'.]

['Buff: Desire for Destruction' is applied, increasing physical damage by 300%.]

"Oh, devil's horns?!"

Suddenly, two horns sprouted on the guardian's head, and Harmakan's eyes filled with astonishment.

"How can a descendant of the Shadow Lord use the power of a demon noble!"

But it's still too early to be surprised.

Kangshin.

Giant's armor.

The wind in the meadows.

Gang body art.

Suho applied all the skills to his body.

Every time that happened, Harmakan's eyes grew bigger as if they were about to pop out.

"This is ridiculous! No matter how much he is a descendant of the Shadow Lord, how can he possess so many different powers with a mere human body? ...!"

Hwioooo.

The now gigantic guardian walked towards Harmacan, his silver hair flowing.

"I know that? They say my father was a necromancer. "Then what am I?"

Long strides.

As he approached Harmacan, the smile on Suho's lips grew stronger.

bang! bang! bang! bang! bang!

The two fists, engulfed by the guardian's powerful body technique, began to rain down on Harmacan in earnest.

A huge explosion erupted from each shot.

The aftermath turned the entire area upside down.

"Hey, Innoom! no use!"

Harmakan gritted his teeth and shouted, repelling all the attacks.

"No matter how much of Candiaru's blessing you have, the thorn of pain is a curse to me!"

[Harmacan, the war chief of the Demonic Tribe, uses 'Skill: Thorn of Pain.']

[All pain and damage harmakan receives is shared with the player.]

I'm crying.

At that moment, blood poured out from Suho's mouth, who was attacking without hesitation.

As Suho becomes stronger, the returning force also becomes stronger.

Seeing this, the corner of Harmakan's mouth twitched and a bizarre laugh burst out.

"Kkkkkk! Yeah, I know you're a big guy! But how long can you last?"

Boom boom boom!

Of course, blood was flowing from Harmakan's mouth, which was taking the guardian's attack intact.

But Harmakan was confident.

"You know what! This is an instance dungeon created with Candiaru's legacy! And I am the king of this dungeon! That means all the ghosts who died on this earth are giving me strength!"

Instance Dungeon.

Candiaru's legacy was discovered by chance in the world of illusions.

Since I began studying it in earnest, Harmakan's power has become incredibly strong.

It was because of this that he, who was just an ordinary tribal chieftain, was able to rise to the level of war chief.

"You only have Candiaru's blessing, but I am different! "I, Harmacan, am a disciple of Kandiaru, the greatest shaman of the Demon Race!"

Candiaru's disciple.

The implications of those words were truly enormous.

The power of Candiaru, the great shaman who designed the level-up system, was once so great that even the next monarch of the Demon Race was afraid.

His power was such that Harmakan became war chief just by discovering a part of Candiaru's legacy.

So, no matter how much Candiaru's blessing protects the guardian.

This land of death, the instance dungeon, was also Candiaru's legacy... ....

"Haha! Go for it wherever you want! The stronger your power, the more it will eventually eat away at itself... ...."

But then.

"You have a long tongue."

Creepy.

For a moment, Harmakan couldn't help but feel an eerie feeling at Suho's words.

'Now, wait a minute.'

Something was strange.

Now that I think about it, Suho has been sharing all the pain from before and hasn't stopped attacking at all.

Are you sick?

Of course, it hurts.

but.

'What do you think?'

Suho was smiling even though blood was bleeding from the corner of his mouth.

"I'm also confident in my tenacity."

When Suho lay down to sleep, Ber would sit next to him and tell him old stories.

Although most of the stories were things that Ber had personally seen and experienced, there were also some stories about Seong Jin-woo's younger days that Ber had heard about.

'My father also did something called a job change quest.'

The profession was first given to his father was said to be a necromancer.

It was probably the first job given according to the design of the level-up system, gradually increasing strength until the size of the bowl became suitable.

However, his father had grown beyond the design of the system, and he was able to immediately become a Shadow Lord.

At that time, his father's level was only 40.

However, even though he was over level 40 and was looking at level 50, he wasn't doing any job advancement quests.

The reason was obvious.

The level-up system is solely for creating a vessel for the Shadow Lord.

The job change quests were all just a fa?ade, and in the end, they were just steps for my father to grow into a suitable person.

That's why Suho couldn't be a necromancer, a shadow lord, or anything else.

[Occupation: None]

Suho's eyes shined intensely as he looked at the top section of the status window, which had been blank from the beginning.

'...therefore.'

Even if you don't have a job.

Even without job change quests.

What do you think?

'It's okay if I decide.'

For now, he just trusts this strong body he inherited from his father.

All you have to do is use all your strength to crush and crush the enemy that appears in front of you and move forward.

Just do that first and that's it.

"So now I'm a barbarian."

Doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo!

Barbarian.

A warrior who withstands all pain with tenacity and attacks with all his might against a powerful enemy.

"I decided that way."

Tiring!

[You have learned 'Skill: Martial Arts Lv.1'.]

At that moment, his two fists gained even more strength.

"Kaaaaaaak!"

Finally, a scream of pain came from Harmakan's mouth.
