. Timing Master (2)

the heart of the island.

Inside the cave full of stalactites, I could see the appearance of Exension and Hysynth.

It's coming in smoothly. Without realizing that this is a trap.

The corners of Hisinth's lips, who were looking at the huge crystal ball in the center, were slightly twisted.

The more the other person misunderstands, the more.

After that, the feeling of despair grows even more.

I felt like I was going crazy because I wanted to quickly see Jinhyuk and the rest of the people's faces contorted in pain.

How can I make it more thrilling? After all, wouldn't it be best to have them watch them die doing nothing in the end to save each other? No. Would it be better to just slowly torture and kill each other from your fingertips?

Thinking that he could definitely kill Elise this time, Hysynth felt his whole body heat up.

However.

Everything is too smooth.

Axencion muttered, as if he didn't like something.

It was what I wanted to lure Jinhyuk and Elise even deeper. The problem is that speed.

No, it's good if things are going well. Why are you so anxious about useless things?

The Sacred beast Syliana had to hold onto his ankles much longer than they do now. I was planning to delay the time until the manifestation of Shub Niguras just in case, but there is a risk that the foundation will be shaken.

Even if they fail, there will be no variables as long as they hold out until the timing of the appearance of Shub Niguras.

The original plan was to design the trap perfectly in double or triple.

Isn't that supposed to mean that he's in a hurry to calculate that? That's megalomania.

Yeah. Maybe I'm being overly cautious. But, remember, two heads of state have already lost their lives while bewildering that man.

" "

At Axencion's words, Hysynth kept her mouth shut.

That's it.

Amulam, who led the Decassus family, and Abigail, who led the Levisita family.

All of them were fatal, so they set up a plan that they were sure of and confronted Jinhyuk.

But the results were all unsuccessful.

Only the remnants of the two families that have disappeared to ashes are hovering around the empty space. Don't identify with me with those idiots. First of all, our families are of different classes. Besides, this time, you came to destroy Elise. The troops we prepared were enough to wage war against the divinities.

It was when Hisinth clenched his fist.

jerk.

This, the great housekeepers seem to be very worried.

A new person appeared in the cave.

An old man wearing a black robe.

It is Nietzsche, the head of the Mine Association.

"You're not that demon or something, isn't it?"

When I asked you to watch the net outside, did you already forget your duty? If it wasn't for Hasting's request, we wouldn't have been together...

Axencion and Hysynth frowned.

Because the demons were only forced to be together, they didn't even like being in one place.

However.

Please don't look at me like a thorn in my eyes. No, did I come here without any qualifications?

In Nietzsche's next words... .

Currently, the divinities in the upper levels are moving in search of the crown. As you know, the crown is the key relic that balances the tower. Of course, vampires will need one of them too? Your symbol, the 'unique crown' This is it.

...!?

" !!"

The atmosphere changed in an instant.

The name of the treasure that all vampires desperately seek will come from here.

'The Crown of Pure Blood'.

It is the most pure and beautiful crown among the seven crowns, called the Holy Grail containing the 'blood of the beginning'.

You... how did you do that...?

You know what you shouldn't know about human subjects.

The complexion of the two heads of state has changed 180 degrees.

The life that comes out of the cold face.

Ugh...

Melena, who was behind Nietzsche, could not bear the pressure and trembled like an aspen.

Fufu. This old man has no intention of touching the vampire family's wrath. However, in order to obtain the Crown of Pure Blood, wouldn't you also need some help?

Help? What kind of help do you have?

To all of you, we humans may feel that we are nothing more than worms... But worms also have their own powers. Just like you know the existence of the crown and its name.

The speed at which information is acquired.

If there's only one thing where the Mines have an edge over the residents... .

The point was that he was trying to secure information about the tower like a frighteningly reckless one.

Regardless of any means and methods.

...Tell me. How did you get such information? Did you hear from those demon world guys?

Hey, can you tell us our secret easily anyway?

but.

slurp... .

A dark purple sphere appeared next to Nietzsche.

[Summon 'Blackness', the spirit beast of the forgotten element!]

Earth, fire, wind, water, light.

It is common knowledge that the spirit water must belong to one of the five elements.

However, the spirit water that appeared in front of me now was a new spirit that did not belong to any of them.

A heterogeneous mana with dark attributes.

"You the hell. What is your identity?"

Even Excension was genuinely surprised this time.

Following the knowledge of the crown's existence.

This is because he never imagined that he would meet the 6th Spirit Beast who had hidden his existence in the tower tens of thousands of years ago.

If you arrange a relationship with Hasting, who only cares about the 50th floor, and make a deal with me instead, I will make sure that the divinities of the upper classes don't attack you. Of course, even get the crown.

Nietzsche began to weave a new plate.

With the support of the spirit beasts, Jinhyuk ran through the island in the shortest distance.

Heh heh, heh heh, heh heh.

You're too fast.

"Is that person even with infinite stamina? He doesn't get tired even after hunting so many monsters."

The raid team followed up with all their might, but it was not enough to catch up with Jinhyuk.

Even Yoo Yeon-hwa and Lee Tae-min couldn't miss Jin-hyeok in sight.

The only person who could afford it was Cheon Yuseong.

I'm running out of time, so I'll go first. Don't force yourself to follow me, but don't fall. Block the enemies from behind.

I... we can still follow along. We can't give up here if we want even a small amount of power to help...

no.

Cheon Yoosung shook his head.

You are a burden rather than a help.

Cool, but this is the reality.

There is a law that there is a wall that can never be crossed by humans.

Yoo Jin-ah knew that too, so she bit her lip.

...Okay. We'll take responsibility for the rear. Let's go first.

It's a smart idea.

Cheon Yu-seong further accelerated the pace.

How long has it been?

Suddenly, a huge gate appeared in front of the two people who had reached the inside of the island.

The size alone is about 20m.

Red sparks flickered incessantly.

The mana flowing from the inside of the gate is unusual. At least it seems to correspond to a higher labyrinth or ruins.

Cheon Yuseong looked at the gate entrance.

I felt a sense of incongruity when I first experienced the gate decorated with various runes.

Yoosung-ah.

What?

I'm sorry, can you come and take a look around the gate?

Suddenly go reconnaissance? Am I alone?

This gate... it's a type I've attacked once before, but my memory is a bit vague. Go around the area and find a turquoise-colored magic stone.

Damn it... I see. If you don't think you can do it.

Cheon Yoosung grumbled and left the place.

OK.

Jinhyuk, who was left alone, took a step towards the gate.

[Difficulty cannot be measured.]

[The passage leading to '????' is open.]

[The number of players that can enter is two.]

Uncertainty that will lead to the risk of not being able to measure the difficulty.

Because of this, Jinhyuk gave a reasonable excuse and sent Cheon Yooseong away.

Not only for the raid, but if you say it's dangerous with your skills, he'll go crazy.

It would be better for the proud fool not to speak directly, but to provide an adequate excuse to avoid it as it is now.

huuuuuuoooooooooooooooooooo

As I entered the room, my vision darkened.

And when I open my eyes again... .

The scenery I saw had completely changed.

May this be... .

An earthquake occurred in Jinhyuk's pupil.

I couldn't help but be surprised.

This temple... Because it was never supposed to be here.

-This my it's a castle

Elise in 'Braham's Ring' opened her mouth.

At the same time.

Elise came out of the ring as mana was injected.

I miss you. I used to live here...

The place that announced its beginning as the head of Ataraxia.

At the same time, it was also the final destination due to the betrayal of the heads of state.

Did the vampires play a prank? Recreate the place you lived in?

No. This is not a fake. It must be seen that the space itself is connected.

I don't know what the reason for trying to provoke Elise is.

What's certain is... .

What they've done is sure to work.

A small spark erupted in Alice's red pupil.

Regret and despair... .

And beyond all that. I could feel the anger that had accumulated over the centuries.

right then

Kurre...

Kong! Kung! Kung! Kung!

Uh-uh.

A growl of beasts echoed from behind Jinhyuk and Elise.

Saliva dripping through sharp teeth.

A black three-headed dog looked at the intruder.

Cerberus is known as the watchdog of hell.

But what caught his eye was the female vampire with purple hair next to Cerberus.

Hisin... su!

Alice exposed her fangs.

A maid with a sword at herself.

An opportunity to avenge one of the culprits has come.

It's been a while. Little Ataraxia. No, it's better to call me the former headmaster now?

Where is the Accension?

After all, are you looking for that man as soon as you meet him? It's a bit disappointing that I don't even care.

Don't talk bullshit right now. Answer the question! Where is that bastard now!

I'm nearby. I'll be able to see your face soon, even if you don't rush me.

Hisinth laughed softly.

Then, this time, his gaze turned to Jinhyuk.

"Are you that Kang Jin-hyeok, a human being? Did you say that we spread ashes all over our plans?"

Hey. It's an honor. The owner remembers all my names. But the fact that you have the puppy. Can I interpret it as holding hands with the Greek idiots?

...It's been too long. Let the conversation end. Kill me. Everything.

Creep...!

At Hysynth's command, a fire broke out in Cerberus' mouth.

Whoops!

There was great heat.

The crimson flames that lost control raged like crazy.

[Cerberus activates 'Fear of Hell'!]

Indeed, it deserves to be called the gatekeeper of the underworld.

Even the crow I had dealt with before had a reputation as a Sacred beast in its own way.

Cerberus had a different dimension from that.

Let's go, Elise.

Huh.

Elise nodded her head.

Thank you. This moment. For being with me.

Words of sincerity are conveyed.

At the same time.

[The unique holy lance 'Revelation of Gaebyeok' is open!]

Alice's appearance began to change slowly.
