Chapter 238: Encounter Hertana

No matter how great he was. Did he come back that much stronger in 10 minutes?

It doesn’t make sense

‘Was he waiting for me in the first place?’

There is only one possibility. He was hiding power.

Other than that, the current situation could not be explained.

“Ahh.”

Akushurma headed towards the fire storm with a sound of pain.

‘Prevent it as much as possible.’

He can’t prevent it completely, but it’s better than just leaving it alone.

Akushurma was followed by other high ranking demons.

_______

Erte didn’t say anything. He kept his mouth shut and looked at Raymond.

“So.”

Soon Erte broke the silence.

“A human appeared in the 10th Demon World, and the war will be over because he is incredibly strong and on the side of Amiletta?”

“Yes.”

In response to Erte’s words, Raymond nodded his head.

“I know you won’t believe it. It is pretty hard to believe.”

“No, I believe you.”

At Raymond’s words, Erte smiled.

“I know one such person.”

Erte was reminded of a human he had met 200 years ago.

He thought at first that he was a dragon, not a human, just playing the game.

That’s how strong that human was.

Erte then told Raymond.

“I will support 20 people.”

Raymond couldn’t help but be surprised.

“Are you going to maintain the balance?”

“Yes, the war must not end now. At least until our war is over and things have been stabilized.”

“But that human strength is beyond the level of ordinary Barlogs.”

Raymond frowned. The human wizard’s power was very strong. No matter how many general Balrogs there are, it will not mean much to him.

“A wizard?”

Erte said.

“The Loska team will go with you. Apart from the 20 people.”

Raymond was surprised once again.

The Loska team were Balrogs who specialized in witchcraft using energy. If they are together, there is no need to fear the human wizard.

“And when the time is right, meet Kyrad and make an offer.”

“What suggestion?”

“We will support them.”

“Would they accept our help?”

“Perhaps? Losing that war would lead to their ruin.”

Kyrad and the Balrogs did not get along well.

It was also because when Kyrad had the upper hand, they were on the Amiletta side.

But what if, as Raymond said, the victory of war leans toward Amiletta?

Kyrad will accept the offer. He has no choice but to. Otherwise, his faction will be annihilated.

_________

“When father finds out about this…”

Hertana blurred the end of her words. Eshtar couldn’t say anything to her.

What if Kyrad finds out? Even Eshtar would be greatly punished.

“How did the sabotage operation go?”

Hertana asked.

She planted spies on the side of the Amiletta faction to create chaos during the war.

“That…”

Eshtar blurred the end of his words. Then continued.

“Contact has been lost.”

There was no contact with the spies. And Enicom, the person in charge of the disturbance operation, has also lost contact.

“Then they are also caught.”

No contact meant only one thing. They were caught before the operation began.

“Yes.”

Eshtar replied. The room fell into gloomy darkness at Eshtar’s reply.

“Hmm…”

Hertana sighed then said.

“We must win the war… Either way, the war has to be won. Because only then can the purpose be achieved.”

“Did you say a human wizard?”

“Yes.”

“Look out where those people are.”

“?”

Eshtar was puzzled at Hertana’s request.

What is she trying to do by knowing where they are?

It was Hertana, who had excellent physical abilities but lacked magical abilities. If she ever met the human wizard, it would likely lead to bad results.

*Swoosh*

Hertana took a necklace out of her arms. Eshtar was able to dispel his doubts when he saw the necklace.

‘Asman’s necklace!’

The necklace Hertana took out of her arms was Asman’s necklace.

Asman was the first Demon to rise to the position of the Demon King despite his magical ability being at the lowest level.

The reason he was able to become a Demon King despite his lack of magic ability was because of a necklace that freezes the mana of the surrounding space for a certain period.

Blocking the opponent’s magic.

Moreover, what Asman lacked in magical abilities he made up for with his physical ones.

“With this, the human wizard will only become just a human body. So don’t worry about it and find him.”

Seeing Eshtar’s puzzled expression, Hertana said.

What if she freezes mana with a necklace? The wizard is finished.

He cannot resonate with surrounding mana. Since the power of magic is weakened and you have to cast magic only with the mana remaining in his body, he will not be able to use a lot of spells.

It was then.

*Knock*

“Hertana-sama!”

A voice shouted while knocking.

“Come in.”

*Swish*

At Hertana’s words, the door opened and Hargas came in.

“Humans have invaded!”

Hargas’ words surprised Hertana as well as Eshtar.

However, after a moment of surprise, their faces were full of anger.

“Where?”

Hertana asked.

“It’s Area 23.”

“But there are no entrances to area 23?”

In response to Hargas’s answer, Eshtar questioned.

Area 23 is a residential area and has no entrance. They can’t warp from outside to inside because of the coordinate disturbance magic circle. But how did they appear in Area 23?

“They broke down the wall and entered.”

“… Destroyed the walls?”

Eshtar frowned as he repeated. What kind of wall is guarding Alin?

Numerous defense magic circles were engraved. But did they break it and come in?

“Yes. Akushurma-sama is currently blocking them.”

Hargas nodded his head.

Eshtar looked at Hertana without a word.

“I’m going.”

Hertana got up from her seat and said. Eshtar also got up from his seat.

So Hertana, Eshtar, and Hargas who reported it, headed to Area 23, which had been invaded by humans.

__________

Soo Hyuk thought as he looked at the disappearing Fire Storm.

‘Wow, they managed to Dispel it.’

As his wisdom rose and his magic attack power increased significantly, he thought that they might not be able to dispel it, but he was wrong.

‘Let’s see how long they can last.’

It was Soo Hyuk who came after waiting for all his spell cooldowns.

There were still a lot of spells that could be used.

“Poison Storm.”

Soo Hyuk cast a poison storm. And after the poison storm appeared, it disappeared after 2 seconds.

“Firewall, Firefield, Poison Swamp.”

Soo Hyuk continued to cast AOE magic.

Akushurma and the High-Class Demons also continued to cast Dispel.

As soon as magic appeared, it disappeared, and Intermediate-Class Demons began to approach Soo Hyuk and Yeon Jeung.

Of course, it was not a big problem as the Intermediate-Class Demons could be sufficiently blocked by the ‘Children of Darkness’.

As time passed, a smile appeared on Soo Hyuk’s face, and Akushuruma and the High-Class Demon’s expressions darkened.

‘Are they exhausted?’

The reason Soo Hyuk smiled was because one or two High-Class Demons had fallen .

And as the High-Class Demons fell, the spells started to last longer.

“Poison fog.”

After casting the poison fog, Soo Hyuk smiled.

This was because all the High-Class Demons, including Akushurma had fallen.

‘It’s an opportunity.’

“Wind!”

Soo Hyuk cast Wind.

Then, the poison fog was blown away by the wind and flew to Akushurma and the High-Class Demons.

Unlike before, they were unable to dispel, and the poison fog attacked Akushurma and the High-Class Demons.

“I don’t need to stun.”

Yeon Jeung murmured, while looking at the poison fog and the demons trapped in it. Yeon Jeung did not cast stun needlessly due to the contribution values.

“Magic Missile, Poison Spear, Dark Spear, Wind Cutter.”

Soo Hyuk unleashed single target spells at the Demons in the poison fog,

*Bam*

The Demons who fell into a state of mana exhaustion due to excessive use of dispel, were poisoned due to the poison fog and could not do anything.

[High-Class Demons Ors has died.]

[High-Class Demons Faig has died.]

A couple began to die.

Soo Hyuk confirmed the contribution every time a High-Class Demon died.

‘High-Class Demons are really great.’

They gave a different number of contributions to the Intermediate-Class ones.

It was better to kill one High-Class Demon than to kill dozens of Intermediate-Class ones.

It was then.

[Warning!]

[The Princess of the 10th Demon World, High-Class Demon Hertana has appeared.]

A message appeared.

‘Huh?’

Naturally, Soo Hyuk, who thought it was a message informing him that a High-Class Demon died, was surprised by the words “warning” and the words “princess” that appeared immediately.

‘If it’s Hertana…’

Soo Hyuk swallowed his saliva.

‘Is she the final boss?’

Of course, the final boss of the Kyrad faction was Kyrad.

But Hertana was also a final boss.

It was because Hertana was the second strongest person in the Kyrad faction.

[Warning!]

[Alin’s commander, Eshtar, a High-Class Demon, has appeared.]

[Warning!]

[High-Class Demon Hargas has appeared.]

Hertana wasn’t the only one who showed up. Even the commander of Alin appeared.

Soo Hyuk quickly looked around for Hertana and Eshtar.

He heard a lot from Cranosson that her power is ignorantly strong. He warned him to never give her the distance when he met Hertana.

‘Where is she?’

But he looked around and couldn’t see her.

‘She must be around.’

If you see a warning message appearing, she is sure to be around.

It was then.

“Soo, Soo Hyuk!”

Yeon Jeung shouted urgently.

“What?”

Soo Hyuk looked at Yeon Jeung.

Yeon Jeung was looking up at the sky with his shield in front of him. Soo Hyuk proceeded to look at the sky.

Someone was approaching from the sky with a huge hammer in her hand.

“Holy Shield!”

Soo Hyuk cast a shield.

Considering the height and size of the hammer, a huge impact was expected.

And Soo Hyuk’s prediction was exactly right.

*Bang*

An explosion occurred at the collision point.

[You fall into tinnitus for 5 seconds.]

[Can’t hear anything.]

The sound was so loud that he fell into tinnitus status.

Soo Hyuk couldn’t help but be confused. It’s not because of the tinnitus condition.

‘Is it cracked?’

There were cracks on the protective shield that blocked the attack.

“Flame.”

Soo Hyuk cast flame when Hertana swung her hammer again.

*Swoosh*

However, as soon as it was cast, Hertana disappeared from her seat. Flame appeared at the place where Hertana was, but there was no target nearby.

Physical attack power strong enough to create cracks on the shield. And speed fast enough to avoid his flames.

It is not a very good matchup.

Soo Hyuk swallowed his saliva and quickly confirmed Hertana’s location.

She stood 10 meters away.

‘What is that?’

Soo Hyuk tilted his head.

Hertana was holding a necklace.

*Swoosh*

Soon a light gushed out of the necklace. Then Soo Hyuk could see the message.

[The realm of Asman has been declared.]

[Mana cannot be restored within the realm.]

[In the area, mana consumption increases by 20 times when using skills.]

[Skill damage is reduced by 40% within the area.]
