Solo Leveling- Ragnarok

Chapter 287

Again, Suho was really busy last night.

It wasn’t just Suho who was busy, the shadow soldiers were also very busy.

First, we raided every bakery in Korea and brought back a container full of bread.

Inside the container, shadow soldiers lined up in accordance with Ber’s command and began to open each piece of bread wrapped in plastic like bakery workers.

Because this was a very delicate task, the clumsy soldiers were mercilessly caught by Ber and thrown out of the container.

-Keeeeeek! Didn’t I tell you to spray this kind of bread with a sprayer?

Ber, the commander who once commanded numerous ant legions, has now become the harsh and charis matic manager of a bread factory.

-You vile bastards! How many times do I have to tell you this! Each bread has a different shape and sealing condition!

-Use a syringe for this bread! Keep the bread crispy, but carefully inject the spring water from the Echo Forest into the red bean paste!

Church hurch hurch hurch hurch hurch.

It was, so to speak, manual work.

Shadow soldiers who perform their work in unison according to Ber’s orders.

‘Berbaguette’ is a bread that has been soaked in the spring water of the Echo Forest in various ways.

It was the birth of Ber’s bakery in the true sense of the word.

‘… … I really had a hope.’

Suho’s plan was successful.

[Item: Spring of Echo Forest]

Difficulty to acquire: ??

Type: Consumables

This is the mysterious spring water of the Echo Forest.

When consumed or applied to the body, it has a neutralizing effect.

The spring water of the Echo Forest was used as an ingredient to create the ‘Divine Water of Life’, and was a very powerful detoxification potion that could neutralize the toxicity of the ‘Purified Demon King’s Blood’.

And if it works for the monarch level, it obviously works for the apostle level as well.

The spring water of the Echo Forest can even purify the spirits of foreigners.

However, the effect was a bit weak, perhaps because the amount of spring water spread on each piece of bread was small.

That was why Hasul was so bewitched by the call of the Apostle of Paradise that it took her a long time to come to her senses.

But even though it was late, the effect was certain.

… … Boom!

[Cough!]

The Apostle of Paradise was thrown to the ground by Suho’s powerful blow.

The impact buried his body in the ground, creating a huge crater.

[… … Ugh.]

The apostle of paradise groaned and gritted his teeth while buried in the ground.

The expression was a mixture of anger, shock, and complex emotions.

But there was no time to lie down leisurely.

Wheaaa …

Because Suho’s second attack was already right in front of us.

But at first, I was just confused and let my guard down.

I had no intention of letting this happen to me twice.

The Apostle of Paradise raised his arm toward Suho and drew his index finger horizontally in the air.

[Eat it up, you emptiness.]

Tzuyuu …

“… … !”

moment.

Suho’s expression hardened.

Following the Apostle of Paradise’s fingertips, a huge mouth suddenly opened in the air between him and the guardian!

Whioooooo!

At the same time, an enormous suction power was generated in its mouth, and it began to suck Suho in.

With the momentum of Suho running towards him added in, Suho’s body was sucked into the mouth of the void at an incredible speed.

[My Lord! Danger… … !]

“gray!”

Groan!

At Suho’s call, Gray appeared from beneath his feet, carried Suho on his back, and jumped in the opposite direction.

It was a close call.

Suho barely managed to turn around in front of the mouth of the void.

But the mouth of the void that had already opened began to suck in everything around it with terrifying force.

Even the snowstorm that was filling the city.

WH …

It was spectacular.

A pure white blizzard formed a huge whirlpool and was sucked into the mouth of the void.

Ber knew at a glance what the Apostle of Paradise had done.

[It’s a dimensional rift! That guy forcibly tore through the dimensional wall!]

Tearing apart the dimensional wall with just a gesture.

He was a guy with a unique talent compared to his poor looks.

A rift in dimensions.

I went to Suho Island last time, but that place is an unknown space that cannot be defined in a word.

It was the universe itself.

If you get sucked in there, if you’re unlucky, you could end up wandering around aimlessly until you die.

If we were really lucky, we might one day discover another rift connecting to an unknown dimension, but no one could guarantee that.

[If you continue to do things like that, the very dimension that makes up the Earth could collapse!]

Like the dimension of demons that was torn apart and scattered, or the dimension of elves where the sky

was falling down.

[The best way to block that hole is… …!]

“I can just cut off that damn finger right now!”

[That’s correct!]

Groan!

Suho rode Gray and raced through the blizzard’s swirling wind.

Towards the Apostle of Paradise, who still extends his index finger towards me from beyond.

The Apostle of Paradise, who had suddenly risen, glared at Suho and bared his teeth.

[That’s quite something. For a human to surprise me this much.]

“You’re going to die soon, don’t you think? Don’t you want to show off?”

[… … Cool. Still easy.]

The Apostle of Paradise listened to Suho’s retort and wiped the blood flowing from his mouth with the back of his hand.

But still, with his other hand, he had his index finger extended forward, and it seemed like that finger was really the culprit.

Suho could tell because he had already hit the guy once.

‘He’s weaker than I thought.’

Although he is said to be an apostle, his main body’s durability is poor compared to those I’ve encountered so far.

Bertrand also criticized him harshly.

[If you saw me from a distance, I would have definitely been an apostle providing magical support from the rear.]

By class, he is a wizard, not a warrior.

The power or versatility of the ability may be superior to that of a warrior.

However, on the contrary, it was not difficult to deal with it as long as you did not give it time to demonst rate its abilities.

“Are you the one who planted Elvenwood in this land?”

[Yes, that’s right. This is the garden I’ve been working hard to tend.]

The Apostle of Paradise glared at Suho, who was running toward him through the swirling snowstorm.

[And you are the one who ruined my garden like this?]

This time his index finger was drawn vertically.

Then the dimensional wall tore apart again, and the mouth of the void split open in a cross shape.

The aftermath was enormous.

Quaoooooooooo!

In an instant, the suction power increased three to four times, and Gray began to have difficulty controlling his body any longer.

[The King of the Mad Dragons, the Lord of Destruction, advises using the Dragon Emperor’s Breath.]

Hurrruk!

In fact, I had been hearing Yongje’s nagging for a while now.

But this damn suction power was the problem.

The breath of the solvent is so strong that the repulsive force is also great.

In a state where I couldn’t properly support my body like I was now, it was difficult to accurately hit an attack that was coming in a straight line.

but.

‘If you make a method, it will work.’

“Guardian! Use the Elf’s Footsteps!”

At that moment, Sirka’s scream was heard from the other side of the city, as she was fighting the spirits of the cold.

At the same time, Suho also jumped down from Gray’s back and was jumping over the snowstorm.

‘Elf’s Footsteps’

A skill that allows you to walk on snow-covered fields or on the calm sea of the afterlife.

Since Sirka had already shown the extreme limits of that technique right before his eyes, Suho was confident that he could imitate it as well.

Here are some little tips to help you out.

“Gray, Kangshin!”

Krrrr!

[The spirit of ‘Pet: Gray’ is possessed by the priest’s body.]

Suho’s hair flutters silver with the divine wind.

[Use ‘Skill: Wind of the Grassland’.]

[Movement speed temporarily increases by 30%.]

[Temporarily increases attack speed by 30%.]

The senses of the beast took hold in Suho’s body.

Taat!

Suho started running without hesitation, stepping through the swirling snowstorm.

It looked as if he would be sucked into the dimensional rift at any moment, but Suho glided precariously through it as if surfing and ran towards the Apostle of Paradise.

[The level of ‘Skill: Elf’s Step’ has increased.]

After all, there is no training as efficient as actual combat.

[This guy has some pretty amazing talents. Cool.]

The Apostle of Paradise looked a little bewildered at the sight of Suho, who was noticeably getting used to running through the snowstorm.

Although he appeared relaxed on the outside, it was still not enough time to recover from the initial damage.

Swaaaaaaah-

Even now, the power of the fruits harvested from this land was healing his wounds in real time, but it seemed as though Suho would arrive before that.

The Apostle of Paradise eventually turned his energy from recovery back to attack.

[… … No matter how hard you struggle, the Mouth of the Void will just tear even more.]

Swish-

His fingers drew a new line through the air.

But before he could tear open the third void’s mouth.

Hurrruk!

Already, a dark red energy was boiling over Suho’s entire body.

[Okay, wait a minute… … .]

At that sight, the expression on the apostle’s face in paradise disappeared. 1

[What is that power!]

Horrible.

Shock and horror.

Of course, you can’t help but be surprised.

For the Apostle of Itarim, who had only ever dealt with Shadow Soldiers, not Shadow Lords, the power that Suho had just unleashed would be a very unfamiliar power.

[Use ‘Skill: Breath of Destruction’.]

The identity of this power is none other than the great shadow lord Seong Jin-woo, who fought a bloody battle until the very end at the end of that vicious war.

Because it was the power of Antares, the king of dragons and lord of destruction.

Kukwakwakwakwakwakwa-!

The hellish karma that stretched out from Suho’s hand melted the swirling blizzard in a straight line and covered the apostles of paradise.

[Wh, what… …!]

The apostles of Paradise could not help but be terrified before that overwhelming power.

[Ugh!]

Damn it!

And instinctively, he tore open the mouth of the third void, desperately twisting the direction of the breath of destruction.

but.

‘The power of the ruler!’

At that moment, Suho’s eyes flashed intensely.

Wheeeeeeeek-!

[… … !]

The apostle of paradise glared in astonishment.

Through the swirling blizzard, he discovered two daggers flying towards him at incredible speed, the ‘Wrath of Kamish’.

This is because I noticed the identity of the power contained in the attack more than the attack itself.

[No, how about the ruler’s power… …?]

That’s ridiculous!

What, there are all these hybrids!

[Use ‘Skill: Difficulty’.]

Choke choke choke choke choke choke choke!

[Kkaaaak… … !]

The first one to be cut off was the finger of the Apostle of Paradise.

From that point on, his body began to be cut up without mercy.

This is a total mess.

[Ahhh! Eeeeek!]

Screams poured out incessantly from the mouths of the apostles of paradise.

And in the midst of his suffering, he suddenly realized that half of his body had melted away.

I managed to change the direction of the breath of destruction, but I couldn’t stop it all.

[How dare a human like you… … .]

but.

It wasn’t over yet.

[Me, in my garden, do I feel like I’m going to die… … .]

Even in that state, the Apostle of Paradise glared at Suho with a fierce expression and said.

There was a terrible curse in that voice.

At that moment, the system realized the seriousness of the situation and sent an urgent message to Suho.

Tiring!

[The Apostle of Paradise recognizes the enemy.]

Engulfed in flames, his eyes glared at Suho and his teeth were gnashed.

[You, you, I will definitely kill you.]

Passover.

[You can look forward to it. Regardless of the means and methods… … I will definitely… … … you.]

With those words, the remaining body of the Apostle of Paradise began to crumble apart.

Rather than being burned in the flames of destruction, it collapsed of its own volition and was scattered in the wind.

[Did you get hurt?]

“Hmm. I think I just came back to life because of you.”

[Keeec?]

A winter city blazing with hot karma.

There the apostle of paradise fled from his guardianship.

Vowing revenge.

* * *

bang!

[Give me the information about Seongsuho!]

“What’s wrong? Why do you look like that? Did you change your body?”

Russia’s Yuri Orlov frowned at the sudden appearance of the intruder.

Maybe it was my imagination, but I could smell something burning somewhere.

“So did you confirm what you were trying to confirm? So what the hell is this Shadow Lord?”

[Be quiet and give me all the information about Seongsuho right now. I told you to find it before I get back, didn’t I?]

“…hmm.”

Yuri Orlov sipped his wine, leisurely savoring the look of hatred on his face.

I never thought I’d see this look on this guy’s face.

It was clear that something had gone wrong, it was just strange.

[Ah, right. Human! Of course a human would have a family, right? Seongsuho wouldn’t be an orphan like you!]

“Hmm. Family?”

At those words, Yuri Orlov’s eyes flashed like a snake’s as he snickered.

It was pure curiosity.

“I never thought you’d come looking for that. A guy who has no interest in the human race would utilize the culture called ‘family’?”

Crack!

The Apostle of Paradise glared and ground his teeth at Yuri Orlov’s retort.

[I told you to shut up, didn’t I? Before I deal with him directly, I’m going to prune all his limbs first. Just like my broken flower pots!]

‘… … I guess I really got scammed. This is out of the question.’

When he lightly scratched it, Yuri Orlov saw it getting angry like fire and internally raised the level of danger towards Seongsuho by one level.

But it didn’t matter anyway.

This one in front was a tough seed like a weed, so if you just scratch it lightly, its future utility will be endless.

“Don’t be so excited.”

Yuri Orlov leisurely sipped his wine and handed him a thick folder from his desk.

“The information I came looking for was from that side anyway.”

[Family Matters]

“I’m not an apostle like you. I tried to handle things ‘humanely’ from the beginning.”

Yuri Orlov smiled faintly and pointed to the very front of the file.

“Yangpyeong. Go here. All of Seongsuho’s weaknesses are gathered there.”
