Chapter 264

With that, Ming Hu rushed forward.
“…How dare you!”
The demon who had been speaking frowned, as if he was angered by Chapter’s behavior.
[Makusa den Kurza is enraged].
At the same time, a message appeared.
‘also’
After seeing the message, Ming Hu was certain that the demon who was speaking was Makusa.
“Then…
Convinced that it was Makusa, Mingfu opened his inventory and glanced at the Magi Bomb that had been handed to Rakuza before he came here.
<Magi Bomb
A magi bomb carefully crafted by the demon Rakuza.
Activation: Seals 40% of everyone's Magi within a 3 kilometer radius.
Rakuza's carefully crafted Magi Bomb was a unique tier consumable item that had the option to seal 40% of the Magi of anyone within a 3 kilometer radius when used.
'This distance is… Enough.'
At this point, Ming Hu and Makusa were less than 50 meters apart. Ming Hu decided to use the Magi Bomb and pulled it out. He then threw it straight to the ground.
Whiz! Puck! Zzzzzz!
The Magi Bomb thrown on the floor immediately cracked, and white light leaked through the cracks.
Bam! Saaaaaah!
Soon, the crack opened completely, and the white light that had been leaking out slowly began to burst forth. The white light pierced through the Makusas and high-level demons at a tremendous speed, extending inward.
"Ugh…you're being sloppy!"
Makusa let out a pained groan as the white light hit him. Of course, Ming Hu didn't answer. He was still running toward Makusa, even as the white light erupted.
"Moving Strike!"
Ming Hu used a traveling strike to move in front of Makusa. Moving in front of Makusa, Ming Hu then threw a punch.
"Huh!"
But Makusa snorted and lightly stepped back, dodging Ming Hu's fist, and at the same time, the higher-ranked demons moved.
Puck! Squeak! Bang!
[Stunned for 1 second].
[Slows you for 1 minute; -10% Movement Speed, -20% Attack Speed]
[You are in Chapter for 1 minute; -2500 health per second]
[Bleeds for 1 minute, -3500 health per second].
[The mark of Valaradrot is imprinted].
[20% Physical Armor reduction for 20 seconds].
"You've got to be kidding me.
After seeing so many messages from one failed attack, Ming Hu quickly checked his health.
'200,000. That doesn't hurt.
Thankfully, he didn't lose too much health compared to the message that popped up. Ming Hu shouted as he saw the high-level demons attacking him again.
"Life Explosion!"
Oooooh!
A wave spread out from Ming Hu's body, piercing through the high-level demons that had been attacking.
Cringe!
"Eek!"
Cringe!
"Suck!"
The attacking higher demons flinched and groaned for a moment. But the higher-ranked demons, who had paused their attacks, continued their assault. But it was the same for Ming Hu. Ming Hu's attack was far from over.
"Blood puddles! Blood explosions!"
Ming Hu cast Blood Puddle and followed it up with Blood Blast.
"Eek!"
"Ugh!"
Unlike the Life Explosion, the use of Blood Explosion caused the demons to recoil backwards with a loud flinch. The higher-ranked demons who had retreated looked at Ming Hu with puzzled eyes. Ming Hu turned away from them and looked at Makusa, who was watching the situation from a distance.
"On second look…"
Makusa, who had been watching the situation, looked at Ming Hu with a cold expression and said.
"What a slutty little bitch."
"…?"
Ming Hu was about to launch another attack, but Makusa's words left him puzzled. A slutty bitch? What did he suddenly mean by that?
"I don't think that's a provocation.
It wasn't a provocation; it was a certainty.
"You can't be serious…
Suddenly, Ming Hu remembered what Maltario had said and gave him a dubious look. He had a feeling who Makusa was referring to by the slutty bitch.
That was the moment.
[Makusa den Kurza hates you intensely].
"…?"
The sudden appearance of the message caused Ming Hu to tear his gaze away from the message to look at Makusa. Makusa's face was contorted in a grotesque way, filled with rage, but that wasn't all.
Siaaag
A black aura emanated from Makusa's body and began to pulsate.
"…not the time for this.
After looking at Makusa for a moment, Ming Hu remembered that this was not the time for this, and lunged at Makusa.
"…huh?
But as Ming Hu rushed toward Makusa, he couldn't help but wonder: he had expected the higher-ranked demons to attack, but instead, the higher-ranked demons were retreating into the distance.
[Warning!]
[Makusa den Kurza goes into a runaway state].
The message that followed explained to Ming Hu why the higher demons had retreated. Ming Hu furrowed his brow and turned away from the message to look at Makusa.
Suk
The moment I looked at Makusa, she disappeared from my sight.
Puck!
At the same time, he felt a heavy touch on his left side. Ming Hu quickly turned his head and looked to the side. He saw Makusa. Or, more accurately, he could see Makusa's afterimage.
Puck!
Next, I felt a heavy sensation on my right shoulder. I couldn't confirm it, but I knew it was Makusa's attack.
"Damn.
I couldn't keep up with Makusa's movements.
Puck, puck, puck, puck, puck!
Ming Hu then began to unilaterally beat Makusa.
"Holy shit.
Ming Hu was perplexed by this situation: he needed to attack, but he was too fast to do so.
'30k is not enough to bother with…'
I checked my health and realized that I was only losing 3 health per attack. It wasn't enough damage to worry about, but I couldn't let myself get hit like this.
"Doesn't the ring option work?
Ming Hu recalled the Ring of Stun.
'Even if it's nerfed, it's about to explode…'
The Ring of Stun, which had a 50% chance to grant enemies a 5-second stun, has now been adjusted to a 10% chance, but given the number of times it's been hit, the option should have already popped.
'No way… It's not working?
It was strange that the option didn't pop up. Apparently stuns don't work on Makusa.
'Ugh. All my broadswords are on cooldown…'
Since he couldn't hit directly, he had to attack with AoEs, but the three AoEs he learned, Life Explosion, Blood Blast, and Blood Puddle, were all unusable due to cooldowns.
"I need to learn more skills.
Deciding that he would have to learn more skills when he returned, Mingfu turned his attention away from Makusa, who was pounding him with his speed, and looked at the advanced demons in the distance.
"…"
"…"
The high-level demons stared at Ming Hu blankly.
"Wait…
Ming Hu smiled at the thought that occurred to him when he saw the high-level demons staring at him blankly.
"You don't have to get Makusa first.
There was no need to catch Makusa first. Ming Hu began to run toward the higher demons, who stared at him in disbelief.
"…!"
"…!"
The higher-ranked demons watching Ming Hu flinched slightly as he rushed toward them, and then quickly began to back away in embarrassment.
"…Why?
Ming Hu, who hadn't expected them to flee at all, looked at the fleeing high-level demons in bewilderment.
"No way… because of him?
As Ming Hu pondered why he was running away, a thought flashed through his mind and he remembered Makusa, who was still attacking him.
"Doesn't the runaway state… discriminate between small and large children?
The higher demons retreated because of Makusa's rampage. Apparently, when she goes on a rampage, she doesn't distinguish between her enemies. Otherwise, there was no reason for the higher demons to flee.
"It's not narrowing down…
Ming Hu frowned as he continued to run towards the higher-ranked demons and stopped moving when the distance didn't close. Then, the higher-ranked demons stopped moving as well. They seemed to be maintaining a certain distance rather than moving away at random.
"I'll have to learn to move…
Deciding that when he returns to the village, he'll have to learn not only AoEs, but also mobility, Myung-Hoo looks at Makusa's Afterimage to check the skill's cooldown.
"The bloodbath is back.
Thankfully, or should I say, unsurprisingly, explosions with a 1 minute cooldown are now available.
"Bloody explosion."
After confirming that the explosion was available, Ming Hu immediately used it.
"Boom!"
Then a short scream, presumably Makusa's, reached his ears.
Puck! Puck! Puck!
Of course, Makusa's speed hadn't slowed. Ming Hu thought as he looked at the afterimage of Makusa, still moving fast and attacking him.
"Is this how I'm supposed to hold it?
The explosion clearly damaged Makusa. The problem was the cooldown.
That was the moment.
tweet
The ground in front of you has risen.
"Dad, now!"
At the sound of Lafydd's voice as the ground rose, Ming Hu stared at the rising ground in disbelief. Or, more accurately, he looked not at the ground, but at Makusa, who was bound to it.
"Big!"
Makusa's eyes were red. She still seemed to be on a runaway.
"…Hmph."
Ming Hu smiled as he watched Makusa struggle to move. As it turned out, he wasn't alone. Ming Hu smiled and threw a punch at Makusa as he struggled against his bonds on the ground, shouting, "Makusa!
"One punch!"
Bam!!!
[You hit the runaway Makusa den Kurza directly].
[Triple the damage].
"Bam!"
After attacking Makusa, a message appeared. When Ming Hu saw the message, he was surprised.
"Three times? Then…
It clearly said that the damage would be tripled. The problem was that the attack Makusa had just made was a one-punch that did 10x damage.
"Thirty times?
Ming Hu stared at Makusa in disbelief. Makusa's eyes, which had been red, had returned to their normal color. It was as if the runaway state had been lifted.
"I…can't. I… can't…"
Makusa muttered and shook his head as the rampage was lifted. And then a message appeared.
[You have defeated Makusa Den Kurza].
[4 million prestige].
[You have accomplished an unbelievable feat].
[10 million prestige].
