The vibrations soon became so great that everyone in the camps could sense it. Terrible torrents of mana were spreading out, dozens of layers of dense mana waves that were incomparable to the monsters they had experienced in Africa so far.
“I have to go.”
“Eli!”
Kang Shin-hyuk instinctively tried to grab Eleanor as she stood up. She tried to shake him off but stopped as Hell landed in front of her, having been called by Kang Shin-hyuk.
“Your family will be safe, so stay calm. And, if you’re calm, go ahead.”
With that, he put the threads from the soul connector around Eleanor’s body to strengthen her status. Not only that, but he quietly activated his Golden Dragon Fighter and Guardian Golden Dragon to boost her further. She closed her eyes and accepted it, whether she felt the reinforcement or if she was just moved by his thoughts of her.
“…I’ve calmed down. Thanks.”
“Uh.”
Eleanor, opening her eyes, kissed him with a display of gratitude and jumped straight onto Hell’s back. Even without Kang Shin-hyuk’s order, Hell was happy enough to fly with Eleanor after working with her for a few days.
-Fox?!
[Oh, she’s a girl who knows the atmosphere quite a bit.]
‘It’s a serious moment, so you both…’
Before Hell took off, Kang Shin-hyuk hurriedly buffed him the same way. The wyvern delightedly flapped his wings.
“Then I’ll go first!”
-Quaaaa!
As Hell flew up, the other monsters commanded by him followed in unison. In fact, Kang Shin-hyuk needed to run straight to the field with her, but…
‘Damn it… even if I do work, will it matter? Whether it goes well or not, more than half of them will die!’
He couldn’t. Their target was most likely the mercenaries who should be guarding the camp.
‘Is it their master plan to push through the superhumans and devour the mercenaries inside the camp? But even knowing it, I can’t help but go to the battlefield.’
It was heartbreaking, but one superhuman was worth more than a hundred mercenaries without any abilities. What’s more, the countercurrent was spreading, and if it weren’t blocked at the source, it would gradually devour the camp. He had virtually no choice, but there was his family from the orphanage.
-Myu?
“No, Onyx. You’ll be in danger too.”
Onyx remarked that he would protect them, but Kang Shin-hyuk shook his head firmly. He wouldn’t protect anyone by sacrificing him. Everyone must be kept. He didn’t know he would have such Batman-like troubles, but he was serious.
“This, Death Puppeteer!”
In the meantime, the young woman, perhaps British royalty, whom Eleanor called her little sister earlier, reached the wall.
“Princess Olivia, the candidate for succession to the throne, is in danger! The British royal family will not forget this grace, so please save her…!
She shouted straight at Kang Shin-hyuk. Didn’t she see Eleanor soaring, or was she thinking of asking him for help from the start? If one were to think about it, it was a little odd to run straight towards the Korean base camp, even if you couldn’t afford to think about your direction while running away.
That meant she came here for the purpose of asking him for help… which increased the likelihood that the British royal family was really interested in Shin Eun-hyuk. What was surprising was that they calculated that far and were moving toward such a goal even at a time like this. But, though he felt sorry for her, he had already made up his mind.
‘To protect my friends, I have to stay here. It won’t look unnatural because we need to protect the camp…”
[You don’t have to, Anvil.]
Her red tail flickering in front of him cut him off.
“Huh?”
[If you remain here, it becomes difficult to draw them out, so do it like this.]
She plucked a strand of her hair, then blew it. Then, it turned into a little fox that looked just like her. It laughed and turned into a red wind that flowed into the base camp.
[Now, with this, the base camp is safe. Moreover, whenever you want to, you can come right away. You can leave with confidence.]
‘Tsukuyo… thank you.’
[For me, being able to help you is the reward of a lifetime.]
Maybe her dimensional quest had already begun. With his worries solved, Kang Shin-hyuk stood up and looked at the woman asking for his help.
“Okay, go inside and let me know exactly what’s going on. Tell that Shin Eun-hyuk will be helping.”
“Yes, yes!”
He took the princess of England back to base camp and immediately put his hand up to the earring he was wearing.
‘Senior Eunah… already in the field. Then it’s possible.’
Artifacts that served as communication devices and methods for long-distance spatial mobility had been shared among the top rankers. It was equipped with the ability to teleport them to each other’s location with mutual consent. Since Kang Shin-hyuk had the skill of space coordination, he could use that, but he decided that he didn’t need to unnecessarily expose the fact that he could move long distances using his own power. He activated the earring and headed straight to Shin Eunah.
-Kwaaaah!
She was already in the middle of hell. The eroded terrain overlapped, and the ground, which was already like a reddish swamp, constantly spewed out heat. The monsters overlapped and mixed together as many gates popped up at once.
-Kaaaek!
-Koo, kugaaaah…
“That, what…”
[Ah, okay. Many varieties are born in these places.]
-After all, Earth boasts an erosion rate compared to that of other perishing worlds only on this continent…!
Worse than anything, the mana pressure was so high that monsters below a certain rank were dying immediately as soon as they were born. Monsters that died like that became part of the torrent of mana, creating stronger monsters as a result.
[That’s why all the weak humans are already dead.]
“Yes…”
“Junior?!”
While Kang Shin-hyuk was busy digesting Tsukuyo’s cold words, Shin Eunah screamed at him. She had arrived at the scene one step ahead of him and was trying to somehow tame the mana around her. However, no matter how great her magic was, it was a job that would take a while.
“What about the camp?!”
“One of Tsukuyo’s alter egos is protecting it. Let’s deal with this first!”
“But… Ugh. Then, there!”
Kang Shin-hyuk jumped straight to where Shin Eunah was pointing. The British superhumans, caught in the center of the countercurrent, were united around the royal figures. Hell and the other aerial monsters were striking the ground successively to reduce the number of monsters approaching them, but the victims continued to pile up. The level of the monsters forming on the battlefield was too high. They were at least SS and SSS-rank, so even Eleanor and Hell couldn’t easily wipe them out with their buffs.
‘Eli can only do so much…’
Had they been more rational, they wouldn’t have come to explore this area with less power than other countries. Kang Shin-hyuk was able to see the young woman standing at the center of the group; her head tilted up despite the dangerous situation. Eleanor’s eldest brother couldn’t be seen, but she was supposed to be the one in command.
“Don’t scatter! You have to hold on a little longer for reinforcements!”
“Yes, Your Majesty!”
“Protect our charge!”
An aristocratic blonde with green eyes and a calm demeanor. As Eleanor had said, her compact features resembled her very much, but she looked a good 20 centimeters taller.
‘Even in this situation, she is keeping her pride. Without that…’
-It will help the morale of her subordinates. Of course, their morale won’t change much.
The administrator sounded cynical as he spoke. According to the admin’s words, their ranks would collapse soon despite how much Eli was struggling.
[Sorry, Anvil. I can’t go out yet.]
‘I know. It’s okay.’
This terrible situation wasn’t even the worst to come. That would be because the command post of Jormungand hadn’t appeared yet. On the contrary, that meant it was still at a level that could be solved with their power!
“Haaah!”
Kang Shin-hyuk took out the Growing and Fall Scythes, grabbing them in each hand, and rushed forward with a lot of energy, with Golden Dragon energy covering his body. Various monster attacks flew in, but they all got blocked by the shield of Golden Dragon Fighter. His ability to protect was most robust when it came to himself. Kang Shin-hyuk was now able to demonstrate the power of his trait!
-Kyaaaaah!
-Kiiiii!
Everything before him was shredded and crushed by the scythes in his hands. The two scythes at SS and SS+ rank were further reinforced by his trait, and once more by his soul connector, he boosted their durability and cutting power to the current limit. The spiritual power flowing through them became a poison that melted the soul, mercilessly cutting through the monsters’ defense and damaging their very essence. Moreover, here…
“Onyx!”
-Myu!
Onyx synchronized with the two scythes, giving them the power of the sharpest and hardest metal he had ever eaten. Onyx’s gold magic had metal properties, and it shone most when it came to reinforcing metal. That, combined with his synchronization, was causing the overall ability of the weapons to evolve.
-Kha, are these the humans we’ve been waiting for…!
Then, suddenly, a huge monster rose from the bottom of the red swamp. It had a brass-colored muscular body, sulfurous breath, and crooked goat horns; it was the very image of a devil. When he saw the monsters screaming and dying as soon as it appeared, he could tell it was draining their magic.
-It is from their homeland. Crimson Soldier, an average SSS-rank soldier. It won’t be easy to break through because the elements that make up its body have the properties of artifacts.
[Oops, even these are already on Earth.]
The admin and Tsukuyo reacted at the same time. However, they both indicated that this guy seemed to be from Jormungand’s home.
-That’s funny, human. Even though I know it’s a trap, I feel like jumping…ha!
Kang Shin-hyuk threw the Falling Scythe with a wave of his hand. At the same time, the monster’s hand reached out to summon dark magic around it, blocking the scythe. Kang Shin-hyuk rushed at it and threw his Growing Scythe.
-Same attack, kahak?!
Just before the magical power in its fist collided with him, the growing scythe hit his face, having traversed space in an instant using space coordination. The growing scythe penetrated his brass skin, spread his soul poison, and at the same time amplified it, bursting the guy’s head in a second.
-You’ve subdued one that is harmful to the order of things! Bonus on membership level! You received 25,000,000HP! As a VIP bonus, you received an additional amount of HP equivalent to 50% of the reward, for a total of 37,500,000HP!
When he threw the falling scythe to grasp his foe’s ability, he found its defense and magic dreadful, but it seemed that its intelligence wasn’t high enough. To be caught so easily by a feint. Or maybe the space coordination skill that Kang Shin-hyuk used was a high-level technique.
“This is enough to deal with without a transcendence potion.”
Kang Shin-hyuk mumbled and withdrew the Growing Scythe, retracting the crescent-shaped blades back into it.
[Excellent, Anvil.]
Tsukuyo raised her cute feet and clapped, and then pointed one paw forward.
[But they can’t hold on for much longer, so if you want to save them, you better move quickly.]
Where she was pointing at was a crimson soldier tearing through several superhumans guarding the English princess.
Kang Shin-hyuk gritted his teeth and ran!
