Demon King

Monster Heart (4)

This was not the dungeon I knew.

It was as if the entire 2F had gained life. The walls pulsed, and the floor trembled, as if in anger.

The passages of the dungeon gradually widened. The ceilings are elevated, and the floors are cracked.

It seemed that 2F was transforming into a different space.

Upon detecting the change, some of the humans screamed with agitation.

“Shit! We can’t stand it with our numbers!”

“That devil! Find an escape route, find it!”

As I listen to their insults, I wanted to ask them.

Who are you talking to?

Who made me this way?

But I didn’t answer. These people would soon pay for their sins.

The first flock that arrived was the Werewolves and the Battle Spiders.

The ground continued to vibrate as a result of Werewolves’ dash, and the ceiling turned dark as it was covered with Battle Spiders. The passage was filled with monsters, and behind them were more monsters, waiting for their turn.

Maybe the dungeon itself has changed. The number of monsters coming in seems to be 2,000.

A crowd so use that the end could not be seen. I was wondering where in the dungeon have they been hiding.

No, probably more than half of them have just spawned.

Their appearance was also changed.

At first glance, I thought they were a superior species that I didn’t know.

The Werewolves were larger, and their mane was red.

The Battle Spiders have weird growths on their eight legs.

They have red eyes in common. They look as if they came from a nightmare.

“Crazy… … Damn it!”

I appeared in front of their sweaty faces.

“Enjoy.”

Then, with Surprise and Fairy Tale, I disappeared before their eyes. I turned my presence off and melted into the surroundings.

Spiders running down the ceiling. Wolves running on the ground.

The dungeon raged against the intruders.

I buried myself in all of that.

It was a wonderful, exhilarating experience. I dissolved in the midst of a large group of spiders and wolves, who are prepared to destroy anything in their path.

Humans saw my image disappear in front of them, while wolves and spiders stepped on the spot I was standing in.

My size is huge and occupies a lot of space, even in the larger passage.

However, the wolves and spiders didn’t notice me at all. Even if they brushed against me, they do not recognize my presence.

It was the culmination of the training I have done so far.

It was really funny. I was really satisfied.

[Advanced Surprise has become Lv9.]

[If you don’t establish a proper “achievement,” you will not be able to grow to the Highest-level skill.]

It was a welcome surprise to see that the skill has grown. I’m only an intermediate monster now, but my skill is almost at the Highest-level.]

Apparently, I need to meet a special condition to increase it further.

“Fuck!”

“Come in! Stick together! Unite!”

“Go slowly! Be careful!”

I thought about achievements while watching the Phoenix Hunters Guild desperately resisting the army of wolves and spiders.

Achievements… I could ask Rain.

But again, it’s not always good to keep asking him

Besides, the word ‘achievement’ is not so difficult.

Let’s worry about this later.

There are 71 humans in front of me, surrounded by wolves and spiders all around.

They are my enemies, and I cannot yield their lives to the wolves and the spiders.

However, my turn has not come yet.

As they were gathered together, humans appear to be quite strong.

Each one had the ability to kill Lower level monsters.

Even if they are surrounded, they moved as a group and killed the monsters one after the other.

They were able to withstand quite well thanks to the distribution of labor. Moreover, they have a lot of potions in store. It made a great impression on me.

A group that is properly controlled is so strong. I guess it won’t look good if I just jumped at them.

So, I have to watch for now. The strength of the human group. How do I break it down?

Probably, they can only stand up to the lower species.

“Ooh oh oh oh oh oh!”

“Aw wow!”

Piercing sounds smashing all hopes reverberated around the dungeon. The humans also noticed it, and their hands began to twist in worry.

“Oh, no… … !”

“We barely survived… no, damn it!”

The upper species began to appear. Werewolf Elites and Battle Spider Assassins, showed up one by one amongst the regular monsters.

Faster, stronger, deadlier.

I would have to move soon.

I slowly lifted Blood Shadow as I watched them pass by me. The Blood Shadow glistens with all the blood flowing in this space.

Soon, the first victim fell. It was a warrior. He was unable to anticipate the speed of the Werewolf Elite and died quickly.

I failed to act in time and decided to let the wolves have him.

I waited for the next one more alertly. A priest was healing one of its companions when I saw a venomous spider web flying towards him.

I quickly jumped in and cut off the man’s neck.

It happened in synch with the web, so even the spider may have thought he killed him.

[You gained 90.495 experience.]

[You acquired 19 gold 20 silver 21 bronze.]

[Randomly acquired 3 items from the opponent’s inventory.]

I quickly recovered the body and placed it in the inventory.

It didn’t matter if the spider noticed me. It wasn’t going to find me anytime soon.

Simultaneous use of Surprise and Fairy Tale is a task that consumes considerable physical strength.

That’s why stamina supplementation is essential.

I took out the bodies in the inventory and consumed it one by one. The fact that it doesn’t make me feel sick anymore made me nervous.

Is this evidence that I am more a Fallen than a human now?

[You acquired Beginner Healing Magic.]

I started to move more aggressively, but I couldn’t wipe out the humans yet.

They are also killing the monsters.

I need to wait until all monsters have appeared.

There might be something I didn’t expect.

“Break it, retreat… … !”

“No, it will soon be over!”

The humans are starting to lose hope against the increasingly strong monsters. They were struggling to survive.

Those who looked at lives as XP and items, those who thought of killing me and selling my body…

Human beings are like that.

They want to take advantage of others’ lives but cling on to their own precious life desperately.

I am no different. I will do anything I can to survive.

So, I have to get stronger, faster.

The guild’s number was down to less than thirty, but the spiders and the wolves’ numbers also gradually decreased as the humans devoted their lives to the struggle.

The dungeon’s capacity seems to have reached its limit. The crowd that seemed to have no end has thinned.

Bodies of wolves and spiders were piled in the mountains, and the blood flowing on the ground formed rivers.

The heat of madness began to subside.

But it was an illusion. In that short break, some more monsters appeared.

“Aw wow!”

“Ki-chan, Ki-gi-chan.”

Four Giant Red Wolves and six Giant Spiders appeared.

The rarest species of 2F.

“Oh no!”

It was then that someone in the guild formation broke out.

The man jumped out of the group and started running, but was caught immediately by the eight spider webs shot by a Giant Spider.

Everyone was stunned at the sight.

“It’s an intermediate monster, isn’t it?!”

“No way! Isn’t that the boss?”

I was a little surprised, too.

It seemed to be a lot stronger than the Giant Spider I knew.

It’s definitely bigger, and its color is different.

If these monsters have grown like this, how much stronger would the boss monster that would appear in the end be?

It was fortunate that Phoenix Hunters were in this space right now. I wouldn’t have been able to destroy the key by myself.

The Giant Wolves and Spiders didn’t notice me, too, of course. But in their angry rampage, I may be caught by accident.

So, from now on, I am in danger, too. I need to create a more favorable situation for me.

I rushed forward.

Everyone in this space is my enemy. The monsters prevail, so I need to reduce them.

I attacked a Giant Wolf.

The moment he noticed me, he turned and charged. It tried to bite my arm off.

I am faster.

I used Leap and shot two daggers at him, increasing my speed with Beast Charge.

The two daggers are charged with Black Lightning and unleashed their power upon hitting him.

“Oh, ah ah ah!”

Before his mouth closed, I grabbed his snout with one hand and drove Blood Shadow down his throat. With Flame Magic, his own blood turned to flame and burned him.

[You gained 32,550 experience.]

[You acquired 30 silver.]

[You acquired the Fang of Wrath.]

The Giant Wolf collapsed lifelessly.

The battle was over in one quick moment. I thought it was a clean finish, and collected my two daggers.

All humans and monsters witnessed it, but it was over in a moment. I was gone once more, and not one specie in the space could pinpoint my location.

Soon, their battle resumed.

“Break it!”

“Quaaaaaaaah!”

The riot of Giant Wolves and Spiders.

The struggle of the surviving humans.

As everyone was approaching their limits, it finally appeared.

The Dark Red-Maned Wolf.
