The Player Hides His Past

Chapter 141: In a grand way (1)

[Quest: Request from Simuard family]

The mage family Simuard.

They have a curse of terminal illness imposed on them.

Dig into the root of the curse.

Visit Simuard Mansion. (Successful)

Face Countess Simuard. (Succesful)

Defeat the demon possessing Yula Simuard and break the cursed contract. (In Progress)

The quest goal was updated.

I was fully prepared for this moment.

Not to mention the fluttering [White Elytra] and the [Lightning Struck Tree Branch Wand].

[Luxury Item Lightning-Struck Tree Branch Wand]

[Grade: Unique]

[Restriction: Lv.380]

[Effect: When attribute magic is activated, mana consumption increases by 30%, but the destructive power increases by 30%.]

The effect was a double-edged sword.

Attribute magic already consumed a lot of mana. If I poured out the 100 attribute magic stored in the elytra, I obviously would suffer from mana exhaustion, but I didnt care.

The Arcana Continent that was filled with demons.

Grandfels pride grew even higher in this living hell.

Perhaps what the demons should be most wary of is not the demon hunter class, but the human named Grandfel himself.

Indeed.

For me, Arcana was like my home ground. Whether it was a high-level demon or a demon king. It wasnt unreasonable for me to risk my life to take down at least one demon.

By the way.

[The first World Tree recognizes your existence.]

[The first World Tree blesses you.]

[Your vitality and mana regeneration will increase significantly.]

I didnt expect this either?

As soon as I unleashed my magic, the World Trees blessing was activated. Of course, this was not a part of my complete preparation. It was just an unexpected luck.

[Luck: 7]

Indeed, it was worth investing a valuable point in luck! By the way, as its name suggested, the effect of the World Tree was no joke. Right now, although I was using up a lot of mana.

I dont feel like Im running out of mana.

It was incomparable to the buff effect of elixir herbs.

Even most magic tools and items couldnt produce this much effectiveness.

The blessing of the World Tree became the basis for my confidence.

One step

Lake.

I unleashed my magic and walked on the water.

It would be unimaginable if I ran out of mana.

But now, not only I had [Natural Enemy Relationship], I also had the buff from the World Tree.

This level of magic manifestation didnt affect the amount of mana in the slightest.

So, since this kind of opportunity was rare, lets walk a little bit.

Yeah, this was what it felt like to walk on the water.

But the distance from the demon didnt shorten.

!

If I took a step closer.

She took a step back.

The exorcism had already been activated.

In my consciousness.

The mental battle between us had started a while ago. But I wasnt worried. Could Grandfels high pride get crushed before the demon?

Dont look down on my dark history.

I knew better than anyone else that there was no way it would happen.

Are you just going to watch? Demon world!!

Suddenly, she shouted at the sky.

Demon king, great evil! He came for us!

She was just spreading rumors around the neighborhood.

She seemed surprised.

Well, it was actually surprising.

Its natural that they know about my existence to some extent.

The demons hunted by demon hunters disappeared from existence and could never be resurrected.

The existence of a great evil and some demon kings had disappeared.

It was natural for demons to notice in their own way.

However.

They never imagined I would show up in Arcana.

Although I didnt know what the demons common sense was like.

With common sense, who would have thought?

The last demon hunter broke into the Arcana Continent full of demons, single-handedly.

Even I, the person concerned, couldnt have imagined it until a few days ago.

Goo

But whether it was planned or not.

It was Marcelos life at stake.

Of course, the pride of Grandfel.

Even if it was just so that I didnt die from overwork while being buried in the chiefs work.

I had no choice but to enter the Arcana continent.

Dont let me say it twice.

I declared coldly.

At the same time.

Crack!

The lake froze in an instant.

I said to her, to the prey.

All I have allowed you to say is an apology to the Simuard.

[Oddity], Absolute Zero.

!!

Her face became frozen.

.

.

.

From head to toe.

She was struck by an uncontrollable chill.

It shouldnt keep going on like this!

Tsk!

Yula made a quick decision.

Slash!

To prevent the chill from spreading throughout her body.

She took out the fingernails she had hidden under her skin and cut off her ankles.

Even if her body regenerated, she never thought she would cut off her own ankle with her own hands.

Yula took a deep breath.

Is this an exorcism?

Yula didnt directly participate in the Holy War.

She didnt want to be treated like the foolish demon kings and demons.

She just watched Akshans final moments from a distance.

There was nothing better to see than that.

They were just human beings.

Akshans demon hunters, who looked down on the demons.

They had been betrayed by their allies and were being hunted by demons.

She thought it would be an ecstatic sight to watch. However, the development of the Holy War was different from Yulas expectations.

Damn bastards!!

Even in the midst of a crisis where they got betrayed by their allies and surrounded by demons, demon kings, and great evil. Akshan hunted the demons to the end.

Despite the overwhelming difference in numbers. Even though they knew they had no chance of winning.

They remained undeterred until the very end.

As a result.

Akshan defeated more than a dozen demon kings.

Not only that.

I cant die like this. Anything is better than this!!

The great evil, Greed of the Seven Deadly Sins, committed suicide.

If they died at the hands of the demon hunters, their existence itself would be erased.

Yes, demon hunter.

They were beings that could make even the great evil commit suicide in fear.

But nothing can stop us now.

The annihilation of their natural enemy, Akshan.

Yula, like the other demons, had swept her chest. Furthermore, she admired once again her judgment in not participating in the Holy War.

But she didnt expect that judgment to come back as a boomerang.

Why. Why cant I see anything else?

Taking the vacant position of the demon king was not enough.

Although Yula had enough power to not have to worry about rankings, Yula lacked experience. Furthermore, she had no experience facing natural enemies, demon hunters.

From Yulas perspective.

The only thing visible in the dark was Hoyeol.

To be precise, there were only Hoyeols.

In the special space in the lake.

Hoyeol was standing up straight.

Hoyeol was standing upside down.

It shook Yulas spirit even more strongly.

Yula regained her senses.

She remembered the hardships she had been experiencing.

I have endured and endured.

It couldnt disappear in vain like this now.

Yula shouted again.

Look. Demons. There is a demon hunter here. There is someone here that will lead us to destruction if left unattended!!

The whole thing was just a hallucination.

Just because the evil eyes were invisible didnt mean that they didnt exist.

She wasnt the only one in the dark.

She was just hallucinating.

Yula thought of it after thinking hard.

Yes, lets drag it on.

Even if he was her natural enemy, he was only a human.

Playing with the human mind?

It was an easy task for her.

Yula opened her mouth.

Youre funny, demon hunter. Are you now taking revenge on the Holy War? When your colleagues, Akshan, died gruesomely. Where were you and what were you doing?

The last demon hunter.

She didnt know what was going on between that man and Akshan, and she didnt care. However, if he was a weak human, he should feel shaken. Yula added.

If there had been a demon hunter as good as you, the outcome of the Holy War could have been different. But you werent there. What are the results? Although they killed dozens of demon kings and drove the great evil to suicide, Akshan was ultimately defeated. They were all wiped out!

A weak human being.

He was bound to feel guilty.

If so, his mentality should be shaken.

I am aiming for that gap.

However, contrary to her wish.

What came back was a voice the same as usual.

Even if I already tell you a few times, you dont make any progress

What?

Indeed, even comparing you to an animal makes me feel sorry for the animal.

How the hell?

She didnt feel any agitation from him.

But since you saved me the trouble, Ill match you.

What did that arrogant look mean?

Was he looking down at her?

Besides, what did he mean that she had saved him the trouble?

He would match her.

The man went on without questioning the reason.

To pity Akshan would be an insult to their pride.

Its blasphemous to pity them? Dont make me laugh!

Pitying their sacrifice, as well as taking them lightly.

!

Unwavering gaze.

He meant it.

It was what he really thought.

A natural enemy.

She felt like she could why the demon hunters were called the natural enemies of the demons.

Their way of thinking was not like a weak human being. It was clear that that way of thinking was completely broken.

The natural enemy finished his speech.

Time to drown in ugliness.

.

.

.

So, I could guess what she wanted me to feel when bringing up the Holy War. Would that work for me? For me, who had a more than 10-year gap due to living in this life.

Still, I appreciated the information about the Holy War.

Thanks to her, one question that was lingering in my mind was resolved.

Well, the sense of incompatibility I felt from the great evil, Greed of the Seven Deadly Sins.

I wondered if it made sense for a great evil to not know an exorcism.

It made sense if the Greed of the Seven Deadly Sins was led to suicide.

He had also had the smell of an immature demon.

His level was similar to that of Demon King Decarabia.

Demons were growth-type monsters.

The great evil was no exception.

If Greed committed suicide and was resurrected, it made sense.

In that regard, two feelings coexisted within me: relief and disbelief.

He got to level 650 as soon as he was born.

So what was Greeds original level?

And how did Akshan cause such a great evil to commit suicide?

I shouldnt pity them. Praising them wouldnt be enough.

Unidentified forces, including the Mage Tower and the Goddess Church, betrayed Akshan. In that unreasonable Holy War, Akhsan was said to have driven Greed to suicide.

So I could say sincerely.

To pity Akshan would be an insult to their pride.

Thinking that the conversation was over, I aimed the wand at the shocked demon. A demon struggling in an exorcism ritual wouldnt have the power to withstand 100 magic. I could guarantee it.

Unlike her, I had experience.

Its over. You little demon.

In order to not sink and drown in heavy pride.

Struggling with all the strength I had.

I had fought against a great evil and demon kings who were several times my normal level.

The effect of [aesthetic] reached [medium] level.

The light that had been scattered to be used as a catalyst for attribute magic began to shine brilliantly. As if trying to replace the stars of Arcana that had disappeared in the night sky.

Brilliantly.

Each star responded to the magic radiating from the elytra. Pure mana spheres become a catalyst for attribute magic, raising the destructive power of the stored magic to the limit.

Literally a hundred colors.

Countless attribute magic unfolded on the lake.

It kind of looked like fireworks.

Perpas because the lake reflected light.

It looked twice as spectacular.

It finally looks like the night sky of Arcana.

It even satisfied Grandfels sense of aesthetics.

But I could guarantee it.

For the demon in the exorcism, there was nothing scarier.

As if to support that guess, she screamed.

Aaah!! I cant die like this, like this!!

Was this the last luminescence?

Evil energy was radiating from her body.

Her aura waving in the air changed into the shape of a pattern.

Marcelo As long as I get his life, I will!!

But unfortunately.

That wasnt going to happen.

I declared coldly.

I didnt expect it. Youve gone too far.

!

I dont want to hear you anymore. Shut up.

Black magic, Black Tube.

A demon who was out of her mind wouldnt be able to fight back intermediate black magic.

As if to prove it, a message appeared.

[Silence occurs to Demon King Yula.]

Stars poured down on her.

[Your level has gone up.]

[Your level has gone up.]

[Your level has gone up.].

Dizzying messages appeared for a moment.

I felt eyes on me.

Did they notice a demon kings death only after the exorcism was over?

For an instant, the giant evil eyes floating in the night sky stared at me.

At the same time, [Natural Enemy Relationship] reacted.

Hundreds.

No, thousands.

Tens of thousands.

All the demons nearby were rushing towards me.

Yeah, they must be in a panic.

If [The Last Adventurer] didnt work.

I also had thought this in mind.

Thats why I had said.

Thanks to all her talking, it saved me a lot of trouble.

I shifted my gaze.

From the evil eye in the night sky to the ship, my backup.

[Flying Machine, Iron Castle: Waiting for command.]

[Flying Machine, Iron Castle: Waiting for command.]

It was time for the real fireworks to begin.
