Dungeon Hunter Chapter 140:

Chapter 140: Return (1)

The war continued for three days . I was in a hurry to return so I pushed them day and night .

I was more powerful than before and was already the strongest in this place . Lightning God burned down the enemies around me as I aimed only at the commanders .

Oswen and Maxium recognized my intentions and attracted the attention of the troops .

As a result . . . on the evening of the fourth day, I was able to return all six enemy commanders to the earth .

They spoke right before my sword sliced their necks .

"I want to forget everything . ”

"This is just a dream!”

The stopped world .  Only time flowed .

In the process, they became exhausted .  Maybe they were waiting for someone to punish them . There was a look of peace on their faces before returning to the earth .

They couldn’t withstand the long years without the Hell Monarch .

Once the commanders disappeared, the enemy’s morale quickly deteriorated . The enemy ran away and those remaining were quickly cleaned up .

Finally, my work in the Underground World was finished .

 

Shortly after the war ended .

I stood before a huge mountain . This was the place where the Hell Monarch's treasures were hidden .

‘There will be a way for me to return here . ’

There had to be . My real goal was to become the devil . Ruling the Underground World wasn’t bad but I didn’t forget my goal .

I needed to quickly leave here and determine the situation . After Okullos died, Earth was likely to have fallen into confusion .

The key was how much time had passed . A little over six months was spent here, but the flow of time could be different depending on the world .

"Their souls were sucked in . ”

I said while looking at the front .

There was an enormous entrance in the mountain . The souls of the commanders who returned to the earth had been sucked in .

"Once a commander loses their body, their souls are meant to be sucked into the treasure trove . Your Majesty, Oswen and I will place my hands on the entrance . Once you place your sword in the middle, the warehouse will open . ”

Maxium explained . I nodded .

There was something like a keyhole in the bottom of the door . The sword was supposed to be placed there .

Soon after, Oswen and Maxium touched the large door guarding the treasure trove .

I picked up the Emperor’s Sword . I slid it inside the hole and . . . the world started to shake .

A crack .

I was sucked inside .

When I opened my eyes, everything around me was different .

‘Earth . ’

The surrounding air and magic power . It was familiar despite being gone half a year .

This was Earth .  I had returned .

But it wasn’t near my dungeon .

"A person has suddenly appeared!”

"Damn, what are you doing? Flee!”

Humans with extremely pale faces .

The Caucasian people looked at me .

I was on a street surrounded by tall buildings . Most of them were half destroyed and there were many humans killed .

‘Monster wave . ’

Creatures were moving in my direction .

They drooled as they came closer .

I was just about to pull out the sword when two people emerged from the crack in rapid succession .

“This place . . . ?”

"Ohh, Your Majesty!”

They were Oswen and Maxium .  They had come together through the large crack .

Oswen was confused because it was his first on Earth, but Maxium was familiar with it . Maxium had already experienced falling to Earth once .

"Clean up the creatures nearby . ”

I gripped Wrath and the Emperor’s Sword .

It would be better to talk to the humans but they were distracted by the creatures .

After I wiped out those around here, I would be able to get a better understanding of the current situation .

 

10 minutes passed .

The Awakened arrived but the situation was already over .

The three of us had killed 500 creatures .

Everyone who watched was speechless with astonishment .

They marvelled quietly at the surrounding devastation .

“Demons?”

The representative of the 50 Awakened that were maintaining a distance asked .

It might be different if I was alone, but Oswen and Maxium looked like creatures .

Yet . . . I was plainly asked if I was a demon . It seemed a little different from when I was last on Earth .

'Have the demons become more prominent?’

It certainly seemed like a long time had passed . I put my swords away and said .

"A summoner . ”

It was extremely rare but there were some summoners among the Awakened . It was perfect to throw off suspicion .

The representative nodded at my words .

“Ah! You are a summoner! Can I ask where you came from?”

“South Korea, Heaven’s Will . I am the leader of the raid group Devil Hunters . Is that all you need?”

“South Korea . . . Heaven’s Will?”

The response was ambiguous . Distrust was in their eyes . I spoke with a frown .

“I would like to know the current date and the year . ”

"July 13, 2021 . "

"2021? Are you sure?"

"It is certain . "

Tsk! I clicked my tongue .

The flow of time was different .  One year and eight months had passed .

If so, their attitude could be understood . The demons had started moving and revealed their presence . That’s why I was asked if I was a demon .

“By the way . . . are you really from South Korea? No one has come out of there for a while . ”

The suspicions of the representative Awakened weren’t removed .

His hands were placed on his sword .  A sneaky action .

In the meantime, the level of the Awakened seemed to have risen .

'I’ll open Mind’s Eye . ’

I almost forgot about it since the skill wasn’t used in a while .

I used Mind’s Eye to grasp the level of the Awakened .

Name: Edgar Sheen
Occupation	Hero (Warrior)	Title	* Survivor (R, Strength +4) * 1,000 Victories in Battle (U, Stamina +7)
Stats
Strength	65 (+4)	Intelligence	41
Agility	44	Stamina	48 (+7)
Magic Power	48
Potential: (246+11/311) Uniqueness: None Skill: Deadly Blow (U), Mental Focus (R)

 

Most of the Awakened gathered here had similar figures .

It was surprising . I couldn’t believe the changes in one year and eight months . Their abilities had grown while I wasn’t around .

If I thought of them as the average, the elite would probably exceed a total of 300 stats .

It meant that things had changed dramatically over time .

"What does it mean that no one has come out?”

"Have you been living in the mountains?”

"I have been in a similar place for the last two years . ”

“Ah, then you might not know . ”

The representative of the Awakened removed his hand from the sword . His doubts were almost erased .

He subsequently said .

“South Korea is under attack from various demons . They closed in from all over the place . The aim of the demons seem to be the Korean dungeon and the Awakened . ”

The attack of several demons?

Shouldn’t I be glad that it wasn’t occupied yet?

I breathed out . I needed to consider the possibilities before moving hastily .

I needed to hear the before and after of the situation .

“Since when?”

"Since a year ago . It is impossible to contact them because all electricity is disconnected and the sky is occupied . Well, South Korea isn’t the only country in such a situation . Angels and demons are fighting . . . they aren’t thinking of humans . Ahyu!”

All of the Awakened sighed .

The angels . . .

‘There is no time to waste . ’

It was worst than I thought .

I needed to move before I lost everything .

"Well, thank you for the help . Summoners are very rare . My name is Edgar . The guild master of the American guild ‘Golden Time’ . . . heok!”

I turned around and ran as hard as I could .

I disappeared in a flash, causing the Awakened to make a fuss .

"Did he use a space scroll?”

Edgar was the guild master of the Golden Time guild . He blinked and withdrew the hand he had held out .

 

The basic things had been restored but my connection to Yihi still wasn’t working . In the end, I had to go directly to the dungeon to check out the situation .

"Is this place called Earth? It is amazing . ”

Oswen had heard the circumstances about how I obtained the Heart of the Hell Monarch . He knew that the demons were fighting to become the devil .

"His Majesty has work to achieve here . Keep silent . "

Maxium spoke in a serious manner .

The two of them moved together with me .

“Of course I will follow . ”

Oswen laughed lightly . Oswen seemed to be enjoying this situation . Maxium thought I was the Hell Monarch and was delighted to follow me .

However, I had no time to worry about their conversation .

‘I need to reach South Korea soon . ’

Streets filled with creatures could be seen .

It was already at an intermediate level . . . but I sped up even more .
