Dungeon Hunter Chapter 199:
Chapter 199: Meeting the Messengers (1)
Three days after, I was able to return thanks to 0001 . My experience there was very unusual and I was able to learn a little bit about the ‘gods . ’ There were regulations and rules, but the current situation on Earth was a little bit different .
But that didn’t change my mindset . My purpose was to become the demon king and take out all enemies blocking my path .
I learnt that the magician of the moon was called Gustarte .
He was a **** but now he was just a doll underneath a demon .
If the Moon Arrow didn’t work then there was no way to get rid of Gustarte . I would do the minimum to keep my promise but I wouldn’t hesitate to kill Gustarte .
Killing a **** . I never thought I would say such a thing .
‘A demon killing a **** . ’
How funny . It was a mythical feat that only existed in the books . I couldn’t help laughing as I imagined my name in there .
I also set up some plans . Gustarte couldn’t fully use his powers . He was designed to follow orders completely . If conflicting commands emerged then he would become very confused . He even stopped moving for a while .
The advent of the seraphim was still far away and a powerful enemy was right in front of me .
Gustarte . If he didn’t want to die then he should stop being a doll .
Once I reached the ground again, the world was dark . A clear evening . I was able to land precisely where the collision had occurred .
The surrounding area was a mess . All the structures were destroyed and there were numerous holes in the ground . It was to the point of becoming dizzy as the holes seemed to go on endlessly .
‘This magic power . . . ’
I sensed many creatures and demons . It was imperative that I get out of here .
‘I have to find Maxium . ’
The dark night . I dashed out of the area quickly .
It wasn’t difficult to find Maxium because the place to meet up had been pre-determined . There was a small island near Recife, Brazil where the bone dragons, chaos soldiers and Maxium were waiting while hiding .
"Ohh, Your Majesty!”
Maxium appeared as soon as I opened my magic power and revealed my presence . He was very pleased as he quickly kneeled down .
“I’ve been waiting for you . ”
Maxium had many injuries . It showed how intense the fight was . However, it wasn’t over yet . Rather than praising him, I asked .
“Have you taken care of Arend?”
"I'm sorry . He bought time due to the reinforcement of other demons . I crushed that mouth but . . . "
I nodded . Maxium decided that destroying Arend’s mouth would stop him from giving any more orders . It was a decent enough merit .
"Then the magician of the moon is with Arend . ”
“That isn’t necessarily true . ”
"It's not?"
I looked at Maxium with surprise .
"The explosion seemed like the world was collapsing . It was an explosion caused by Your Majesty and the magician of the moon . Shortly afterwards, I went to the area but Your Majesty and the magician has disappeared . Just in case, I kept an eye on Arend but didn’t see the magician of the moon around him . ”
Maxium didn’t do things carelessly . He was confident so it was highly likely that his words were true .
The magician of the moon had disappeared . . .
I touched my jaw .
"The plan will be modified . Don’t worry about Arend . ”
"Arend? Then I . . . ”
"No, this time I will go forward . ”
At the same time, Maxium’s eyes shook .
“……! Is it because I didn’t do it fast enough? My abilities might be lacking but please give me a final chance!”
Kung! Kung!
Maxium bumped his head again the ground several times as he bowed .
It wasn’t my intention but that was what it sounded like to Maxium .
I had a different purpose . I was waiting for Upa and Ariel to meet each other . And I also needed to handle Gustarte .
If I dealt with Arend then Gustarte might show up . At that time, I would need to deal with Gustarte .
The problem was still Upa . He might move .
Of course, I didn’t intend on showing up directly at Arend’s dungeon .
I simply had to turn Upa’s attention away . He absolutely couldn’t pay attention to Arend!
In order to do so, I needed to use some tactics .
'A meeting . ’
A gathering of grand dukes .
After a series of invitations, they would gather in neutral territory to talk or provoke each other . They might ignore the invitation but it was worth trying .
‘They will be quite curious . ’
Upa and Pandemonium especially would have questions . I could sound them out and pick up information so it would be killing two birds with one stone . Conversely, they would try to get information from me but . . . that conflict wouldn’t be so bad .
"I will leave attacking Arend’s dungeon to you . I will also tell you how to check for the magician of the moon . ”
“……! New Maxium, I will do my best . ”
The shaking stopped as he felt relieved .
I looked down at Maxium .
While in the Reverse World, I thought of a way to tie up Gustarte’s feet . There was a way to handle Arend and tie up Gustarte .
Once the meeting was over, I would be in an ideal position to deal with it .
‘Yihi . ’
The fairy’s blessing!
It didn’t work in the Reverse World but this was Earth .
After a while, Yihi’s clear voice rang in my head .
‘Yes ~ Master . Yihi is working hard right now . ’
'There is work to do . ’
‘Yes ~ Master . Yihi is working hard right now . ’
My eyes narrowed . It was the same answer . Her voice was oddly slack . I spoke in a grave voice .
'Have Oswen create four invitations . They should be completed by the time I get back . ’
‘Hup! Y-Yihi . Yihi wasn’t sleeping . Invitations? I’ll tell him . But what invitations? He just needs to make them?’
'They will be delivered to the grand dukes . I will take care of the words . Feel free to spend on the necessary materials . ’
‘Yep!’
I stopped the communication after hearing Yihi’s reply .
"You couldn’t find any footprints left behind by the magician of the moon?”
“Yes, Your Majesty . By the time I arrived, they had already vanished . ”
"Hmm . . . then I guess I have to go back . ”
"I will start to attack Arend’s dungeon . ”
He desired my recognition . A burning will filled his eyes . However, I shook my head .
"No, you will be coming with me . ”
“Huh?”
"Don’t you need new equipment?”
“Ah . . . !”
Maxium was greatly impressed . He was using equipment from the Underground World . The equipment itself was excellent but it had clearly been through a lot . Both the armour and helmet .
They were rusty and had holes in several places, making the defense poor . It had a lot of options but there was better equipment in the dungeon .
"Let’s go . ”
I boarded the bone dragon with Maxium following behind me . And the chaos soldiers started moving the other bone dragon .
It felt like a returning tide .
When I arrived back at the dungeon, Oswen and Yihi were waiting for me .
"The invitations were completed . Will this be enough?”
I received the invitations that Oswen gave me and examined them .
The most impressive thing was that there was a little bit of Orihalcum powder . Stars surrounding Wrath and the Emperor’s Sword were drawn on either side of the invitation . The space to write the contents was red and very provocative, so I liked it . They were magnificent invitations with no flaws .
“Excellent . ”
“Thank you . ”
“Yihi . Call Chrisley and Julliom . I will be next to the Dungeon Core . ”
"I understand, yihihi! Yihi will go call them right now!”
Yihi flapped her wings and flew into the dungeon . It seemed like she was going to convey it directly .
'Now . . . I need to decide what the contents should be . ’
It was the reason why I called Chrisley and Julliom .
The contents of the invitation!
I didn’t know how to write an invitation so I would receive the help of two intelligent people .
The grand dukes’ participation would depend on the invitation that was created .
