Dungeon Hunter Chapter 127:

Chapter 127: Shadow of Nothingness, Contegonom (2)

Then Tashmal accused him .

"Bah, it looks like you can’t remember anything but your name . Everything else has been lost into nothingness!”

Supak!

The shadow that called himself Contegonom moved .

Kwarung!

Tashmal responded . Countless dark spears shot towards him .

However, the shadow was fast . It wasn’t easy to hit him . On the other hand, Tashmal was injured every time the shadow moved .

‘Contegonom . ’

I consider that name for a while .  I had heard it somewhere before .

Soon I received a small surprise as I searched through my memories .

‘Contegonom was king of the yetis!’

The king that no yeti dared refer to by name .  He was the ancestor of a cursed yeti sold at the Demon World Auction and his name was also on a helmet in the Achievements Store .  I never thought I would hear that name here .

The form of the giant shadow looked similar to a yeti .  He must have died and become this . He was in a shadow state .

‘It is certain . ’

I needed to get rid of him in order to move forward .

“Mago . ”

Huuung .

This time it was the 2Lv high class creature purchased at the Demon World Auction .

The one-eyed Mago came forward .  Mago regarded the shadow slowly . She had wise eyes that seemed to allow her to see right through the shadow .

'Fortunately, she is in a normal state . ’

Due to the failed contract with the dark spirits, sometimes Mago would have seizures . They didn’t know how to catch a high class creature, so I was dealing with the result . She would become tired approximately once a week and then calm down .

But today she was calmer than usual . Her one eye read everything about Contegonom .

Hwiing!

A gust of wind rose next to Mago, and she hid herself in the wind .

Mago’s habit was to mix in with the wind . I was reminded of her skills and laughed with satisfaction when recalling her status window .

Name: Mago
Stats
Strength	89	Intelligence	93
Agility	92	Stamina	68
Magic Power	93
Potential: (435/446) Uniqueness: Unstable due to the contract . Skill: Perfect Hurricane (Epic), Sage’s Eye (Epic), Wind Tread (Epic)

 

It wasn’t a surprising status window for a 2Lv high class creature . The disadvantage was her low stamina, but that didn’t matter in the current situation .

Mago reappeared behind Contegonom . Her one blue eye was shining as she stabbed the centre of Contegonom’s hand .

Puok!

 

-Kuaaah!

 

Contegonom, who had been pressuring Tashmal, screamed . It was the first time an attack had succeeded . Mago used the skill ‘Sage’s Eye (Epic)’ to examine Contegonom . That was how Mago seemed to know a weak point .

Mago’s eye alone made it worth buying her .

Contegonom jerked back from the unexpected blow .

That wasn’t the end .

Mago pulled strongly on Contegonom’s shadow . And the figure hiding in the shadow was revealed .

-You . . . !

A terrible shape appeared from the shadow . A simple piece of flesh . The eyes, nose and mouth had melted together like he was failing to maintain his form .

He was a six to seven metre bipedal species but he really couldn’t be called a normal existence .

'He lost all shape . ’

Indeed . Aside from his memories, it seemed like he had even forgotten what he previously looked like . Something like pus was dripping from his skin, giving off a terrible stench . Bubbles occasionally popped on his body in different places . He was nothing more than a crumbling mess right now .

Contegonom urgently covered himself in the shadow again . His ugly appearance was once again hidden in darkness . However, I had clearly seen his shape .

"Gigantes . ”

I used Gigantes to verify this .

“Enemy! Win!”

Kung! Kung!

Gigantes seemed unstoppable as he moved forward . He was holding the huge club that the dwarf king made for him . Gigantes was thrilled about using the weapon . He was roughly snorting with excitement at finally being able to play .

It was a unique grade weapon with the skill ‘Instant Acceleration’ attached, overcoming some of the disadvantages of its size . Gigantes also wanted to see how quickly he could move .

Kwakwang!

He swung down with the club and accelerated . Gigantes had incredible strength . Normally the floor shook when he just walked, but the result was terrible after acceleration was used . However . . . the impact wasn’t as large as I expected . The shadow-covered Contegonom didn’t budge . The shadow was lacking to be called an armour .

 

-I will kill all of you!

 

Contegonom flicked out his shadow . The shadow was used to hide his body but it had a further effect . The shadow swallowed up Gigantes .

“Cough! Blocked! Out of breath! Let go!”

The shadow covered his entire body .

It slowly entered Gigantes . After making contact with the shadow, it seemed like Gigantes was dyed in darkness .

"Come out! Don’t become stained with nothingness!”

Kururung!

Tashmal struck down with the dark thunder spears but it wasn’t very effective . Like Tashmal, the shadow also had the attribute of darkness, so the effects were cut in half .

Mago was busy dealing with Contegonom’s main body .

And I . . .

"Do you come here looking for a coffin? Randalph Brigsiel . ”

Okullos and his creatures slowly approached me .

There were the 30 year old death knight purchased at the auction, a bugbear, a dark warrior and 100 advanced creatures .  There was an advanced 4Lv horned ant king and some gigantic ants .

Of course, the one I hated was at the front .

“Okullos . This guy, what did you summon?”

"A **** who was trapped in nothingness . I called out to him . ”

The word ‘nothingness’ popped out to me . Where was it located? Okullos’ smile just intensified .

“By the way, how did you discover the location of my dungeon?”

"You don’t need to know . ”

"Indeed . I don’t need an explanation . You will become trapped in nothingness and then you will follow my words . ”

His eyes turned towards Gigantes .

Gigantes had stopped moving after becoming tinged with darkness . The black shadow flowing around Gigantes . . . it changed his eyes .

The eyes were still hostile but he had changed his target . He was staring at me like he wanted to charge over .

“Is he being controlled?”

“Huhuhuhu . That’s right . Nothingness is not dependent on the shadow . Randalph Brigsiel, how long before all the high class creatures you are so proud of are controlled? I highly doubt that it will take more than an hour . ”

"Then I guess I should kill you before then . ”

"Do you think it will be that easy? You might have earned the title of hunter, but I am a predator . A showdown between a hunter and a predator! I’m trembling just imagining it . It won’t be as easy as last time . ”

He proudly spoke about breaking the taboo .

I didn’t answer him . This was shameful conduct for a grand duke . I needed to kill him as soon as possible before the shadow showed any more bizarre effects .

I gripped Wrath and the Emperor’s Sword . The moonlight was fully charged . I had practiced Moonlight Falling for almost a month . One month was nothing compared to Haien Moon’s existence, but that was enough .

“My Dungeon Master . Give me a command . ”

Chrisley spoke on behalf of the creatures .

She was holding a red jewel in her hands .

Huuung .

Huuuuong!

A ringing sound was constantly emerging from the jewel .  It was the item Chrisley received from the Unknown Box!

"Break the seal . ”

“I will follow your words . ”

Gulp!

Chrisley swallowed the red jewel without any hesitation .

Suuuk .

Suuuuok!

She raised the Death Wand and produced hundreds of shades .  Skeleton soldiers emerged from the ground and a large crow formed on the Death Wand .

'The King of Death . Ganak’s essence . ’

This was the item that emerged from the Unknown Box .

Chrisley owned the Death Wand, so the box seemed to release an item related to necromancy .

Garnak the King of Death . He was a necromancer who reached the pinnacle . Those who swallowed his essence could have his strength for a limited time .

“Chrisley . Help stop the enemy from controlling Gigantes . ”

“Yes . ”

“Krasla . You will lead the creatures . ”

“Leave it to me . ”

"I . . . have a neck to cut off . ”

The delegation of roles was over .

I turned and looked at Okullos .

Okullos had already used Naturalization and relaxation was on his face .

He had a completely different attitude from before .

Confidence . Arrogance . He was feeling those things .

“Let’s end this, Okullos . ”

“Come . Randalph Brigsiel!”

Kururung .

The creatures clashed with each other .

I was in the vanguard as I swung my sword towards Okullos .

 

Moonlight Falling!

It was a sword skill that consumed moonlight to make a sword of light .  It increased the destructive power of the sword and also confused the enemy .

It was a skill that was compatible with Dark Sword .

"Become stronger! Huhahaha!”

“Noisy . ”

Okullos was still relaxed . By now, demons from his faction should be heading to this dungeon . Was he thinking of buying time? No . . . he really believed that he could win . Several branches sprouted from his right arm .

A myriad of branches popped out from the ground . They took a similar form to Okullos . It wasn’t very different from a clone .  So two clones were created . Their destructive power could be compared to Okullos .

“Look! The demons I preyed on have taken on my appearance! Randalph Brigsiel, you will also have the glory of joining their ranks!”

Three against one .

One was easy .

Two enemies was similar .

But three . . . that was a little arduous .

The two clones even used the same skills as Okullos .  It was no different from an infinite revival .

The injuries inflicted by the Dark Sword didn’t recover, but the naturalized Okullos could replace them with other parts . It wasn’t the same for the clones .

In short, I needed to handle the clones in order to increase the chances of winning .

“Lightning God!”

Although he had clones, I also had a powerful army .

Grwaaang!

Lightning God manifested and attacked . The giant lightning dragon rushed towards Okullos .

Meanwhile, I dealt with the clones .

Chwang!

My sword struck a long stalk . It had been reinforced so the cut wasn’t very deep . However, the whole area couldn’t be strengthened . The Emperor’s Sword struck the side of a clone .

Jeeeong!

I had two swords but there were two clones . They both complemented each other and were pressuring me .

‘If only I had the complete version of Haien Moon’s sword techniques . . . ’

It would be easy .

The practice time I had wasn’t enough . More complex moves were required to kill the enemies .  My job would be easier if Haien Moon’s swordsmanship was completely learnt . Right now, I didn’t have enough power .

‘It isn’t easy . ’

The situation was neck and neck .

My creatures were a little bit ahead in that showdown .

However, Okullos and Contegonom were huge variables .  Tashmal was covered in wounds and Mago was busy trying to hold on . At least Chrisley was properly dealing with the shadow-stained Gigantes .

If there was one more shadow controlled creature . . . the situation was likely to reverse .

‘Time . ’

It was running out but I couldn’t finish this as fast as I wanted .

There was another problem . The demons in Okullos’ faction were fast approaching . If they joined then my odds would become close to zero .

'It can't be helped . ’

Huu!

I sighed and took a deep breath .

I didn’t want to use it but it seemed like I had no choice .  It was the skill I obtained when three of the Seven Sins set was gathered .

It had absorbed the other skills but I didn’t know how to take advantage of it . The description was short and also had a ‘warning’ attached .

But this was the only way .

I opened my mouth .

"Corruption . "
