Dungeon Hunter Chapter 94:

Chapter 94-97- Cruel Commander’s Corps

[TL Note: I’ve made a change to the last chapter . Cruel Corps Commander = Cruel Commander’s Corps . Another change is that ‘Item names marked with a + are the only ones available for purchase’ has been changed to ‘Item names marked with a + can only be purchased once’

An expensive creature that could only be bought once with 6,000 achievement points . He heard the name on the day he got the Heart of the Hell Monarch .

‘Corps…’

Great Orc Ram . The Jin Vampire Subira was also different from a ‘corps . ’ There was a numerical difference . But he didn’t know what it meant by ‘Cruel Commander . ’

Even so, I was interested because it was a corps . In the Store of All Things, there were no cases where a large number of creatures were sold at once . There also weren’t any corps sold at the Demon World Auction .

I had quite a few creatures but it wasn’t to the extent that it could be called a corps . Of course, the lowest class creatures might be if they combined but there wasn’t anyone that could efficiently lead them . They wouldn’t show the appearance of an army .

‘If I have a strong corps with multiple creatures than my situation will become better . ’

To be honest…there weren’t many people who could properly command the number of creatures now . It was the same for me as well . So far, I had pushed for quantity over quality .

But Chrisley had bloomed thanks to this ‘event . ’ Over time, she would become the best as she gained experience .

But in this situation, I was in need of a skilled commander . I wasn’t the only one aiming for Earl Saman’s dungeon . There were 12 other demons who saw the scene . By now, the news would have been transmitted to Upa’s faction .

The confused demons were waiting in front of my dungeon so I needed to hit first .

‘The Dungeon Master is gone so the fairy will be anxious . ’

The Dungeon Master and Dungeon Core were closely linked to the fairy . Guyo formed a new contract shortly after I killed Adol but a fairy waiting a long time would feel extreme anxiety .  In my previous life, the fairies would feel confusion and move the creatures outside . Usually they prevented anyone from entering but…it was hard to predict their move .

“I will buy it . ”

I said heavily . 6,000 achievement points . I used all sorts of methods and 6 million points to save this amount .  I had collected it recklessly . I could still gain more points from my dungeons .

Soon a large number of message windows appeared in the air .

-You have bought the ‘Cruel Commander’s Corps . 6,000 achievement points will be deducted .   During the Mado Era, the Shadow Emperor was a very greedy person . He buried all the treasures of the world in a deep place and chose a Cruel Commander and his corps to protect it . It was impossible to take out any of the treasures . The flesh decayed and bones became rotten but they still only had one loyalty . Despite their dead bodies, the souls will continue obeying the commands of the Shadow Emperor .

-The ‘Cruel Commander’s Corps’ is made up of a massive army of 50,000 troops .   The creatures are powerful enough to tear down a thick tree with their hands .

-The ‘Cruel Commander’s Corps’ is moving through the dimensional gate .   Generating a random area has been completed .

-An event message is sent to all demons and Awakened .

-Be careful .   The Cruel Commander considers all living creatures as ‘thieves . ’ Even the buyer is no different . They will kill all thieves for 90 days before returning to their original place . Points obtained from killing humans, creatures or demons will be transferred to the buyer . ‘Destruction’ contribution will also rise .

Tak .

I frowned .

“Crazy . ”

This was unexpected .

*     *     *

At that moment .

All Awakened and demons on earth received a message .

-The ‘Cruel Commander’s Corps’ has arrived in a random place .   They will devour everything around them . Stop them!

Just three lines .

The Awakened were confused by the message window that suddenly emerged .

“Cruel Commander’s Corps?”

“What is that?”

They should be . Right now the world was in a state of extreme confusion due to the angels and creatures . The angels had almost all been exterminated . The emergence of another event wasn’t welcomed at all .

There were two problems . The Cruel Commander’s Corps didn’t make sense at all .

But this worry was solved surprisingly quickly .

-This is the central district in the northeast Jilin Province of China . Right now tens of thousands of skeleton soldiers are marching here . Quickly crossing to the south…d-damage! Ack!

Chiiiik!

The brief news only lasted 10 seconds .  There were subtitles but the viewers were more focused on the video .

A huge fireball had hit the helicopter .

The scene that transitioned to an announcer .

-The video above was sent from China . China has taken some measures and their military will be taking action in the next two days . But the reactions of the neighbouring countries are skeptical . The situation between the angels and creatures couldn’t even be resolved properly .

The announcer then said with a determined expression .

-The situation is no different from Korea . There are still a large number of creatures hanging near the dungeon . The damage was lessened due to the swift response from guilds such as Heaven’s Will and Mithril but citizens are still cautioned to be careful . In particular, all citizens around Seoul should evacuate to the designated shelter . Then…God bless all the people of South Korea .

*     *     *

“For the Emperor!”

The Cruel Commander .

A tall man wearing a faded golden helmet and armour was shouting while riding a skeletal horse . He arrogantly lifted a high hand towards the skeleton soldiers .

Kung! Kung! Kung!

They beat the shields held at their chests . The sound was repeated in accordance with a certain rhythm and caused a strong pressure . Tens of thousands of creatures repeating the sound was sure to cause fear .

But that wasn’t all . A wave that naturally spread death!

They caused devastation everywhere they walked .  Grass and flowers died as the land became barren . They were as good as unbeatable as everything on the ground died .

Those looking at the Cruel Commander’s Corps were tense and nervous . There were a number of soldiers and Awakened near them .  But the numbers were small . In addition, all of them were frightened .

Yiing!

Hundreds of ‘skeletons holding sticks’ wielded a large barrier that covered the place . The barrier was to prevent people from escaping the death zone as well as block powerful attacks from the outside .

However, it had no effect on the attacks of the corps . The ‘skeleton archers’ could fire arrows at the humans outside the barrier . It was covered with intense magic power and could pierce through special alloys .

The humans inside the barrier were like cornered rats .  The expressions of the humans were all the same . Tension . Fear…their hearts were jumping like crazy .

The ‘living’ Cruel Commander raised a sword ornamented with gold .

“For the Emperor!”

Wooruru!

The commander ventured forward on horseback . Tens of thousands of skeletons could a thunderous sound as they followed .

*     *     *

My brows furrowed .

‘I didn’t think it would appear this way . ’

Unexpected . I had no choice . I didn’t know it would be revealed in an event format after purchasing it from the store . A friendly system would have given a brief explanation before purchase .

Of course, I got some information . But it was a strange contract as there was a limit of 90 days where they were sweep the earth .

I wondered if it would be the same I summoned the orc or Aojin . I didn’t know if it was good or bad news but the list had changed after purchasing the ‘Cruel Commander’s Corps . ’

[+ Predatory Hamad’s Corps – 8,500]

One more had appeared . Maybe another corps would appear on the list if I hired the Predatory Hamad’ Corps .

The reason behind the corps . It was simple . For the invasion of the earth . A means of rapidly destroying the earth for other demons . If I knew then I would have bought it more carefully…

‘It is lucky that they appeared in China . ’

The Cruel Commander’s Corps were summoned to China . The stir in China would cause the demons to let down their guard . They wouldn’t carelessly mess with the troops .  That alone would be a great help when occupying Earl Saman’s dungeon .

So far, the demons and creatures in front of my dungeon had yet to withdraw .  The problem was…

-Your contribution to the destruction of the earth has risen steeply .   The battle has ended . 2, 831 pt has been acquired .

-The battle has ended . 981 pt has been acquired .

-The battle has ended . 4,376 pt has been acquired .

The constantly rising notifications .  It was cleared from my sight but I couldn’t help focusing on one phrase .

‘Contributing to the destruction of the earth . ’

There were riots as soon as the Cruel Commander appeared . Everything around him perished . Including humans and Awakened . From his perspective, everyone was a ‘thief . ’

But at the same time, my contribution soared .  I didn’t care how many humans died . I also didn’t care about the Awakened in foreign countries . I also killed numerous humans . But I wanted to avoid the ‘destruction of the earth . ’

This was what the gods wanted in exchange for sending me back in time . They wouldn’t block my road as long as humanity wasn’t destroyed . So that I wouldn’t ignore that promise…they left behind some gifts .

I would get a high class creature with every dungeon I obtained . It was a big power . But they were essentially on the side of the gods . There were other creatures as well . I already obtain the griffin and Gigantes so I didn’t dare disobey my promise with the gods .

‘I can’t throw away my chances at a high class creature .

In retrospect, this gift was a type of bribe .

Avoid the destruction of the earth .  It would be meaningless if my contribution to the destruction soared .  There was no reason for a bribe if the person didn’t comply . I had certain constraints around me .

‘Right now I need to worry about Saman’s dungeon . And how to take advantage of the corps . ’

I had a headache at the thought of the coming days .

I pulled out the crystal ball that had a connection with Krasla .

I had to hurry .

*     *     *

The Cruel Commander’s body was decorated in gold .

His eyes were hollow . Unlike other skeleton soldiers, he had a muscular body but the blue colour was reminiscent of the dead .

He suddenly came into this world but his task was clear .

Destroy all thieves!

To the Cruel Commander, this place was a den of thieves . He believed people brought him here to rob the treasure . So he needed to chop them up and return quickly .

Already dozens of times . He killed the thieves . Directly cutting their necks .

Things like iron carriages and flying through the sky…he just saw them as magic items . There were many treasures in the world so there must be thieves . The items were stolen from somewhere .

The skeletons unfolded their barrier while the corps cleaved into the enemies . The thieves were scattered all over but he determined the method to quickly take care of them . The soldiers were split and performed their task of handling the thieves .

This organization didn’t take a long time .

“H-help me…!”

Chwahak!

The sword went through the head of a living person . They also chased the fleeing remnants . At some point, the eyes of the Cruel Commander looked at the horizon .

‘This?’

A huge and sinister structure . A dungeon that reached up into the sky!

The Cruel Commander was looking at a certain spot .

Soon he was able to realize the identity .

‘A dark seed . ’

This sinister magic power . His army had the attribute of darkness but their loyalty was towards the Emperor . They didn’t care about the seed of darkness . He heard they tried to encroach on the territory of the Emperor . He also heard they had a powerful force .

‘Demon…kill . ’

The eyes of the Cruel Commander flashed .

*     *     *

Marquis Anastasia .

A member of Grand Duke Pandemonium’s faction that was still hanging around Korea’s dungeon .  There were a number of creatures remaining as this was a chance to figure out the Dungeon Master .

“This dungeon has to be ruled by at least a duke or grand duke . I needed to figure out the owner of this dungeon for Pandemonium-nim . ”

Knowing the location of a Dungeon Master gave considerable power . They could put pressure on using this event and it could also be used strategically . It would be a useful key .  And other demons had a similar idea to Anastasia . But Anastasia had a thought while monitoring the dungeon .

‘Huhu, is it possible the Dungeon Master can’t come out?’

A number of intermediate golems . A number of spartoi . Lich and other intermediate creatures…a remarkable power . Who could it be? The person who gathered such creatures .

There was a personal curiosity . Earning points from hunting Awakened was limited . Breeding species and increasing the number of advanced creatures . The number of advanced creatures that could be bought with points was too low for breeding .

In the beginning, she moved without any worries but now she knew how important it was to control the balance between the two .

The problem was still the points .  These creatures were worth a considerable amount of points . Let alone the golems and lich . She estimated that close to 3 million points were consumed and if the intermediate creatures were added, that would require 6 million .

Collecting those types of points in a little over 2 years? There was only one person . That guy .

‘Randalph Brigsiel . ’

The one who brought a high class creature to the auction and freely spent his points .  She didn’t know what magic he used but he used millions of points . He didn’t hesitate despite having no faction . Whether he was fearless or something else…

The grand dukes were interested in him . To be honest, all 4 of them were different . They had different interests .  But that guy was the exception .

‘Using those type of points, there is no way he can build up the creatures at his dungeon . ’

It would be a scam if he could gather creatures . They thought it was an impossible task . He was just lucky to gain some achievements that gave him millions of points but there was a limit .  So perhaps this was a different demon . At the very least, it wasn’t a demon that belonged to her faction . So she was interested .

“Anastasia-nim . What time should we move?”

An advanced 4Lv creature with the head and tongue of a snake and the lower body of a human . The medusa said .

“Are there any signs of those guys?”

The demons were frustrated with this event and began to attack Korea’s dungeon . But she already lost a lot of creatures and didn’t move .

She laughed . They were stupid .

Heroes . And humans .  The technology they used was quite remarkable . She would sit back and let the advanced creatures ‘slaughter’ the humans . She lost some advanced creatures to the dungeon so she couldn’t afford more damage .

Thus she thought of this game . Humans had their own strength .

‘But, that has been limited to the last two years . ’

The demons would gradually recover their power from the Demon World . Right now it was hard for them to achieve mass destruction .  But at the moment, she was convinced that the humans wouldn’t dare resist . She gave them a grace recovery period first . The demons from the other factions wouldn’t move easily .

The destruction of humanity was coming closer .

Although it wasn’t now . Most demons didn’t know it . They had a contempt for humans and moved carelessly . Their taunts!

“No . Marquis Dellat and his creatures haven’t been visible since yesterday . ”

The medusa shook her head .

Anastasia frowned at this .

Come to think of it…Dellat had been quiet since yesterday .

“Where to?”

“Perhaps he returned to his dungeon? The other demons with him aren’t visible at all . ”

“Running away?”

She couldn’t help smiling at the thought .

Dellat belonged to Grand Duke Okullos’ faction and lost quite a lot of creatures in the struggle . In addition, she confirmed that Korea’s dungeon didn’t belong to Okullos’ faction . That’s why they were here watching .

But…leaving . It had to mean something .

‘Did something urgent happen? Enough to make them leave?’

The series of events that happened recently meant her nerves…

-The Cruel Commander’s Corps has begun to attack your dungeon .   The creatures in your dungeon will be rapidly swept away . Be careful . If the Cruel Commander and his men compromises the Dungeon Core then the dungeon will lose its functionality . In addition, the authority of the Dungeon Master will disappear .

“This…damn . ”

That’s right . This was it .  An unexpected quest . There was no compensation and she only received a prompt saying someone was invading her dungeon .

‘Dellat ran off because his dungeon was hit!’

Then her mind was in a rush .

There wasn’t many troops remaining at the dungeon .  She couldn’t lose the dungeon . It was something that couldn’t be moved .

Anastasia hastily turned her body .

“Go back to the dungeon! As quickly as possible!”

*     *     *

I confirmed that most of the demons in front of my dungeon had disappeared .

‘They have been stirred . ’

90 days .

The contracted mercenaries didn’t follow my orders but they still did the basic things .

Sweeping up the humans and dungeons .

The demons noticed it as well and quickly returned to their dungeon .

But I wasn’t glad to see it .

Now it had been 10 days .  My contribution to the destruction already reached 0 . 01% . This meant that hundreds of thousands of humans had been killed . I couldn’t let it rise by another 0 . 1% .

‘I’d rather they sweep up the dungeons than the humans . ’

Weakening the demons instead of humans would have more benefits for me . But I couldn’t direct the Cruel Commander’s movements .

It was a major headache . Anyway, catching all the demons would be helpful to my goal .

The optimal situation would be if the demons died fighting .

“My Dungeon Master . I’ve been contacted by the reconnaissance team . ”

Chrisley walked forward and said .

I had purchased 200 shades to look for Saman’s dungeon . And now they had got in contact .

“The creatures in the dungeon are moving?”

“Yes . They found a number of creatures moving around the dungeon . They were blocking anyone from entering the dungeon . And the majority of the creatures were in an extremely agitated state . ”

I nodded .

The fairy was anxious about losing the Dungeon Master and unleashed the creatures . It was to stop any invaders from the outside .

“This place?”

“Please wait a moment . ”

Chrisley cautiously took out a crystal ball .

“This is the place . ”

The appearance of a dungeon appeared inside the crystal ball .

Orcs could be seen around the dungeon .

‘Here . ’

I reviewed the creatures that I could see . There was a very high probability that it was Saman’s dungeon .

I turned and headed to the 1st floor .

“Prepare the creatures with quick mobility . We will go immediately . ”

*     *     *

200 saber tigers .

Spartoi and lich .

And the griffin!

The preparations were complete .  It was sufficient to take over a dungeon .  Especially if I joined forces with the others .

In addition, I needed to occupy the dungeon the Cruel Commander was facing .

‘I have to try it . ’

Tsk tsk . I clicked my tongue after solidifying my impression of him .

The Cruel Commander . I bought it for 6,000 achievement points but my expectations were betrayed . It had been a long time since I felt like this . I wouldn’t be able to get all those points back . Twiddling my thumbs wasn’t in my nature .

I needed to calculate a way to use that guy .  I didn’t know if there was any way to control their migration but I needed to try .

‘Before that…’

I needed to take care of Saman’s dungeon first .

The quick-witted demons nearby would try to occupy it .  However, there would be a period of confusion where they wouldn’t move . I needed to take advantage of this period . There was a need to clearly obtain that spot .

“Fight . ”

I shook my head and moved to Japan’s dungeon .  Afterwards, I used Turtle Island to head to China .

Nanjin, Jiangsu Province, China .

The place where Earl Saman’s dungeon was located .  It was closer than I thought and all the lamps were dark . It was in a remote location that could be reached by train .

“It is great to see Master . ”

Krasla descended on the griffin and went down on one knee . There were hundreds of shades around him .  Their bodies were dusty like they hadn’t washed . The griffin occasionally hit the ground . Kung! The ground would shake .  All of them had moved for a long time . It was enough for praise .

“You did well . ”

“I’m sorry that I didn’t find it faster . ”

“No . ”

I looked over the dungeon .

I was approximately 500m away but could clearly see the dungeon . There were skeletons and zombies walking around . There were also occasion orcs and slime .

‘An inferior quality . ’

The fairy of the dungeon could only move the creatures outside . But the level of the creatures was very low . The highest among them were still low grade…there were a few expensive creatures but the overall level was low .

The problem was choice and quantity so it made sense he had belonged to Upa’s faction . He was already dead but I wanted to praise his ignorance .

“Is that all?”

I asked just in case . Krasla briefly thought for a moment before saying .

“The entrance is completely blocked so it is impossible to scout . ”

“The shades as well?”

The shades had a half spiritual body . They could avoid the low quality creatures and enter the dungeon . Their speed was also quite fast .

Krasla shook his head .

“The shadow sinners are located at the entrance to the dungeon . I didn’t want to carelessly cause a war so I decided to wait for Master . ”

Shadow sinners…an advanced 3Lv evolved form of the shades . The shadow sinners made it impossible for the shades to pierce through .

“Well done . ”

I gave a small nod . There was no telling what the fairy would do . I needed to sweep them all at once .

Krasla tensed up and said .

“If you give the order then I will thoroughly cleanse the dungeon . ”

“No . I will take on this task . ”

“Will it be okay? Dungeon Master is too high ranking to do something like this . ”

It sounded like flattery but he meant it .

I wasn’t required to deal with low grade creatures .  But in this case, I needed to stand at the forefront .

‘I must clearly show that I am occupying the dungeon . ’

It was because the dungeon’s fairy was watching .  The anxious fairy had blocked the entrance after the death of the demon . It would observe anyone that tried to come in .  It would watch closely the moment the offensive started and I would show my overwhelming power .

Then things would become simpler .

I wore the red cloth ‘Sloth’ and held ‘Wrath . ’ I even triggered a secondary item . It was to show a more authentic appearance .

“Paranormal . ”

-One of the five blessings of Paranormal, ‘Strong Attraction’ has been applied .   Those who come near . Or see your laugh . From then on, they will be your slave . But, I’m sorry . The immutable laws can’t be helped . Smiling at orcs or elves? The perfection of the ‘face . ’ It would still be more significant than the default setting .

I started frowning .

‘The odds are really strange . ’

Increasing all stats by 2 for an hour or increasing magic power by 5 for 30 minutes, I had never seen those two blessings .

Quite strange . I got ‘unlimited energy’ two times .  It was like this when I needed to go into a fight .

‘In the future, I should only use it when absolutely necessary . ’

I couldn’t show such a clumsy appearance in a fight for my life . It wasn’t very good news .

I clicked my tongue .

Krasla, the griffin, the lich, the spartoi and the 200 saber tigers were behind me .

Chaeeng!

I raised Wrath high into the sky .  And the sword stretched forward .

“Follow me . Annihilate the enemy . ”

In fact, I was sorry for the enemy .

Right now, even the saber tigers could handle the orcs . They had hunted orcs many times so they were straightforward opponents .  The spartoi were made from the bones of a dragon and their whole bodies were excellent weapons . Not to mention the lich, griffin and Krasla .

But…I was the one leading them .  I breached through thousands of low grade creatures until I reached the entrance of the dungeon .

It was where I found the shadow sinners .  They were creatures that I fought in the United Kingdom . My abilities now couldn’t be compared to then .

Suuuk .

The chains attached to their feet . The connected iron sphere quickly moved through the air .

Teook!

However, I didn’t avoid it . I reached out and caught the flying iron sphere .

The effect of 95 strength! Strength had almost transcended that wall so the iron spheres thrown by the shadow sinners were like child’s play .

“Get out of the way . I am going to see your master . ”

Advanced creatures had high intelligence . They could understand my words . There was also the fairy watching . Even so, there were no signs so it meant negotiations didn’t succeed .

‘It is still lacking . ’

Iron spheres .

‘Dark Sword . ’

Buuuuong!

A dark aura surrounded Wrath .

Unlike Wrath or Sloth, Dark Sword was a skill applied directly to the item . I could use it to separate the air .

The shadow sinners watched Dark Sword with confusion . They took one step back and were extremely vigilant .

‘The basic darkness?’

Darkness could recognize darkness . The shadow sinners were born from fear and could understand Dark Sword .

However…they realized too late .

I hated saying something twice so I didn’t repeat my previous words .  I kicked off the ground . And the startled shadow sinners threw their iron spheres at me .

Chwaruk!

The iron spheres stretched across the area . At the same time, the shadow sinners twisted the chains .

Kung!

The chains brushed past me . The ground was deep and they were trying to pressure me to stop moving around so freely .

I just snapped the chains with my sword .  I also cut the shadow sinner that I appeared in front of .  But, it didn’t restore itself .

Suuu…

The shadow sinners were very confused . They didn’t use their chains and retreated even further .

‘Indeed . ’

I gave a pleased smile .

Wounds caused by Dark Sword couldn’t be healed . It wasn’t just confined to biological wounds . Substances made of magic power were also valid .  It was a lot more useful than I thought .

Achievements Store . I had been hit in the back of the head by the Cruel Commander’s Corps but Dark Sword was a proper skill .

Suak!

I only admired it for a moment .

I turned and sliced off the head of the shadow sinner .

The griffin dealt with a number of slimes using the Fire and Lightning skill .

The lich played with the zombies . The zombies were dead so they couldn’t avoid the lich’s ‘Corpse Explosion’ skill . Those with high intelligence wouldn’t suffer from it but the low grade creatures didn’t have those type of defenses .

‘Everything is almost cleaned up . ’

They had handled thousands of creatures in only 20 minutes .  The difference in quality with the creatures I brought was too great .  And I was the director of the damage!

“I will give support . ”

Krasla approached me with his red spear .

I said quietly .

“Come along . Increase the speed . ”

The result of the fight was determined .

There was no need to waste time .

I reached the top floor in a flash and looked at the Dungeon Core .

There was little change in the configuration of the creatures behind me . Only five saber tigers had died .

“Will you smash Sik Sik’s core?”

“Sik Sik? That is your name?”

Above the Dungeon Core, there was a fairy with both hands on her waist .

“Yes, that’s right . My name is Sik Sik . And smash me . Sik Sik will go back to nature . Sik Sik doesn’t know who you are but Sik Sik won’t join another master after Saman!”

The nature of the fairy . Sik Sik would say ‘Sik Sik’ when she was upset .  In any case…demons were all the same when it came to abusing the fairies . Saman was like that with Sik Sik . So her reaction was like that .

I said lightly .

“Join me . ”

“Aren’t those words like tea and honey?”

“Tea and honey?”

“Those two have the worst chemistry . It is bad to eat together . ”

It was a clear answer .

“Sik Sik . I do not persecute fairies . You will notice that I have the blessing of a fairy . ”

“You have the blessing of the fairy? Where…”

Kung kung!

Sik Sik’s eyes flashed as she sniffed like a dog .

“This smells like Yihi?”

“You know Yihi?”

“I know . A wicked **** . She acts like she is better than other fairies and then pouts when she needs to play alone! She even stepped on a gift of flowers that Sik Sik gave her!”

Sik Sik took a deep breath after her yell .

I never thought there would be such a relationship between the two .  I could feel a headache coming on .

“That is regrettable . ”

“The light from the very rare flower faded! Sik Sik struggled for years because of it . ”

“…You can tell her yourself if you join . ”

If I didn’t speak then it might not ever end .

“You will really become the devil?”

“I won’t allow any other person to sit on that seat . ”

“But I don’t want the Fairy King to be Yihi . ”

“I will give an equal chance to all fairies . And the Fairy King will be decided by the performance of the fairies . Wouldn’t you like to have a chance to become the Fairy King someday?”

“That’s right . ”

Sik Sik was deep in thoughts .

She sneaked a peek at me and then the creatures behind me .

Overwhelming actions . Advanced creatures . She started to compare it to Earl Saman .

Abandon the existing contract and sign a new one . Then she could avoid the penalty of ‘destruction . ’ Of course she would have some concerns .

Approximately 10 minutes passed before Sik Sik opened her mouth .

“Okay . I won’t return to nature . Saman didn’t have any chance to make Sik Sik the king . But isn’t it different now? Then I will call you Dungeon Master!”

Finally I achieved it .

I put Wrath away and said .

“Don’t worry . ”

*     *     *

-You have taken over the dungeon .   1 extra stat point has been obtained . 1,000 achievement points will be added .

The message window came up now that the contract was complete .

At the same time, an intense light emerged from Japan’s dungeon .  The magic circle for movement between the three dungeons in South Korea, Japan and China was completed .

‘Now I will go see him . ’

My eyes narrowed .

The Cruel Commander!

I obtained Saman’s dungeon so now it was time to punish the wayward mutt .

I wanted to look for the creature at the altar but it would take time to do that . The Cruel Commander was busy running around . He caused blood to flow wherever his feet touched . If they wiped out the humans then it would contribute to the destruction .

Craziness .

I could only think of those words .

Thanks to that…not only in China but demons in other areas noticed the abnormalities .

‘Troublesome . ’

It had been some time since the angels attacked .

The power of a duke or grand duke was enough to be threatening . I didn’t know the limits of the Cruel Commander and his troops .

In order to prepare the Cruel Commander, I needed to inject some awareness into him . I would also try to balance their slaughter of humans with those of demons .

Anyway, they were mercenaries that would disappear after 90 days . It would be a benefit if any demons died . Even if it was a bit discouraging, the 6,000 achievement points was worth it if other demons were killed .  Of course, this also included Saman’s dungeon . I was able to occupy it quickly due to the Cruel Commander .

I looked down at the ground from aboard the griffin .  Hundreds of humans were holding weapons and trying to block me .  It was a situation where they were trying to confront me .

“Griffin . Sweep them all up!”

Kkiii!

‘Mere Lightning’ emerged from the griffin’s mouth . The griffin’s unique skill that swept everything up .

Kwa ru ru rung!

Fire and lightning hit the ground and melted everything . The humans were only armed with crude weapons and received serious injuries .

The handful of surviving humans ran away terrified .

The destruction contribution would slowly climb by killing thousands of humans . I didn’t pay attention to hundreds . Instead, the best way to not raise contribution anymore was to stop the Cruel Commander .

The saber tigers snatched the fleeing humans . Finally, I turned my head to the structure that I could see .

*     *     *

“For the Emperor!”

Just like his name, the Cruel Commander had no mercy . His 50,000 troops had already slaughtered thousands of humans but his thirst for blood didn’t stop . The 50,000 troops got rid of all living things .

The golden sword gleamed with every thrust . He was busy commanding the main army to hit the demon’s dungeon . He had already gone through thousands of low grade creatures up to the 20th floor .

For now, it was going smoothly .

His corps were all experienced warriors .  His army would only start dying in front of stronger creatures .

‘The yin magic power is climbing up!’

The Cruel Commander clenched his teeth . He couldn’t forgive the demons for trying to rob the treasure . They invaded the Middle World and threatened the Emperor . The Emperor would have united the whole continent if it wasn’t for those guys .

‘Due to God’s curse, it is His Majesty’s fate to stop the demons . ’

And he hated the one called ‘God’ more than the demons . A transcendent person too strong for the Emperor’s army . The God cursed the Emperor in order to restore the balance . Stop the demons invading the Middle World…the fate of a guardian .

The Emperor gambled his life in order to throw off the confines of fate . He firmly walked down a path of stigma . This was the reason why the Cruel Commander and his army guarded the warehouses so desperately .

If the Emperor died, he just laughed and continued to kill .

The fate of the guardians and what that meant!

“These **** scum! How dare you make me use my points? Don’t even think about leaving alive!”

At that moment, there was a large number of creatures .  The quality of the creatures was completely different from before .  And there was a demon in the centre .

‘It won’t be easy . ’

The Cruel Commander thought .

The army had split into 10 groups so he had come here with 5,000 troops . It was reduced to 4,000 while attacking the dungeon .

The demon didn’t look very good . The awful appearance was because he had used too many ‘points . ’ The Cruel Commander didn’t know what it meant so he just pulled out a giant axe .

“I will take on the Cruel Commander! I will beat you to a pulp…”

“Fall back!”

No matter how cruel, he was still a commander .

There was no need to fight in the middle of enemy territory .

“What? Fall back? These fools! I will let you know that!”

The demon led the creatures and started the chase .

It was a tense chase .

But the experienced Cruel Commander gave excellent commands so the skeletons didn’t receive any damage while moving .

And just like he knew the situation, the powerful ‘skeleton knights’ were placed at the entrance .

The Cruel Commander quickly joined the soldiers outside the dungeon .

The demon and creatures followed . The soldiers not attacking other dungeons joined and increased the numbers to 13,000 .

But he didn’t show the number to the demon . He sent them to different places and ordered them to wait . And then they revealed themselves when the demon and creatures entered the narrow terrain .

“For the Emperor!”

Kung! Kung!

An orderly manner . The loud sound of the simultaneous footsteps were enough to give an intimidating presence .

“This…! These undead bastards! Don’t be so cocky!”

Marquis Dellat . He had returned straight to his dungeon after receiving the siege message .

He sent the news to Grand Duke Okullos at the same time but the Cruel Commander and his corps were surprisingly powerful . He already lost a significant number of creatures while attacking the angels .

He had to use his points with trembling hands . He had wanted to save it for the Demon World Auction so it was natural to feel furious .

However…the resistance decreased as he fell into a trap .

Kwaduduk!

There was no escape anywhere . It was well-planned out . They slowly but surely tightened around the creatures .

“Kill!”

Dellat cried out with anger .

The fight was heating up . Dellat wasn’t someone to be trifled with . He used almost all the 1 . 5 million points gained from the angel hunt . It made sense that such power could match the skeleton soldiers .

‘Drag out the time . ’

However, Dellat started to feel the threat to his life . The number of creatures were gradually reducing . If it stayed this way then he would die .

But he had a chance of winning if he bought more time .

Grand Duke Okullos wouldn’t stay still if a demon in his faction was at a risk of dying . He had requested assistance from Okullos who was moving here . The undead would find it impossible to deal with him .

He immediately changed from offense to defense . It was to buy some time .

And…

Shyaaaaaah!

A huge green stem shot out from the ground .

The circumference was 5 metres but it gave off a formidable presence that could easily reach tens of metres .

Kwang! Kwang!

The stem towered over the skeleton soldiers .

A familiar skill .

Dellat smiled .

“My Master, Okullos-nim!”

Okullos and 3 dukes .

The situation was reversed again .

*     *     *

When I arrived in the footsteps of the Cruel Commander, corpses were strewn all over .

It seemed like the battle wasn’t over .  The Cruel Commander was leading his army against tens of thousands of creatures .

‘Was I one step too late?’

I frowned .

Five demons caught my eye .

The Cruel Commander gave an order to push them but they were enduring .  The Cruel Commander and his troops were facing a small number of demons .

‘Okullos . And the dukes . ’

This was an impediment .  A rather large one .  The final boss had appeared at the dungeon .

‘They were drawn out . ’

Right now, I wanted to focus on Grand Duke Upa . Okullos being here wasn’t a good thing .

Okullos was famous but I never knew what he was thinking .

Ariel, Upa and Pandemonium had characteristics that I could use to make plans . However, Okullos was different .

In my previous life, he didn’t seem to be greedy for the position of devil despite having many advantages . In addition, he had many eccentricities that I couldn’t understand .  But he wasn’t stupid . He gained advantages faster than anyone else . Okullos had a number of achievements and benefits from special events .

Someone who wasn’t easily measurable .  The most difficult opponent among the grand dukes .

In addition, he brought a small number of creatures . The Cruel Commander was there but I made a wise decision not to face him directly .  They were in the middle of a fight so I wouldn’t be noticed . Now was the perfect time to remove myself .

At that moment, one of the creatures fell .

“Ah…!”

The Cruel Commander’s eyes turned towards me .  He was quite a distance away but looked exactly at me .

Chaeeng!

A short silence . It seemed like he couldn’t believe what he was seeing as his sword dropped .

“This magic power! This overwhelming presence!”

And his body trembled .

“Your Majesty!”

He directed his horse and starting moving towards me .

I panicked for a moment .

“Your Majesty?”

What did that mean?

Numerous soldiers were coming along with the Cruel Commander .

It was chaos . The orderly appearance they had shown so far couldn’t be seen .  They paid no attention to the creatures around them .

Falling, throwing shields…pandemonium . Even the bodies of allies were stepped on .

Okullos’ expression was asking ‘what are they doing?’

The Cruel Commander ran . Soldiers? He showed no signs of caring about them .  Thanks to that, he was the first to reach me .

Cheok!

He dismounted from the horse and took off his helmet . And knelt down .

“I seek an audience with the New Emperor . ”

“……”

A scar covered face . It gave a manly appearance but that made no difference to me .

Something like this wasn’t expected .  Coming up to me and kneeling out of nowhere .

The Cruel Commander had a tearful expression . Tears couldn’t come out because of his dead body but he would be shedding tears right now .

“Finally…you’ve finally taken off your constraints . Huhaha! Now you can preside over the continent and mock God . Huhahaha!”

“I don’t know what you mean . ”

“Ahh! You still don’t remember completely? Certainly, it seems like not all the magic power in the heart is opened . Don’t worry . I know that you will wake up . We will help Your Majesty defeat God!”

The soldiers lined up behind him .  There were only bones remaining so their bodies clattered .

Excitement, growing excitement…

“Heart?

I clearly heard the word ‘heart . ’

‘Heart of the Hell Monarch . ’

The Heart of the Hell Monarch I accidentally obtained from the Easter Egg .

It was associated with the Cruel Commander?
