Chapter 111 . Reunion (2)
As Kaiforce spoke, Kang Chul-In was dragged into a world of nothingness, or more exactly, was about to get pulled into it .
“Shut up and get lost . ”
Kang Chul-In instead used his inhuman mentality and mental strength to reject the offer to go into that abyss .
-You want this strength, don’t you?
Kaiforce’s voice tickled Kang Chul-In’s ears .
-The strength to slaughter that disrespectful vampire .
‘I don’t need something like you, so get lost . ’
-Huu… showing unnecessary bravery even in the face of certain death? You don’t have a way to suppress that vampire’s healing factor . So, what are you going to do?
Kaiforce spoke, teasing Kang Chul-In .
-You’re not even using 10% of my full potential right now . Me, such a wonderful sword… and you can only use me to this extent? Every moment, I’m disappointed at the fact that someone like you is my master . What is this, if not casting pearls before swine?
What a waste .
‘These bastards…’
Even with Kang Chul-In’s mentality, he was about to burst after being belittled by not only Alfred, but also Kaiforce .
-Come on, now .
Kaiforce tried once again to persuade Kang Chul-In .
-10 minutes? No, even 5 minutes would be enough . Just let me borrow your body and I’ll destroy that vampire for you . Not a bad deal, eh?
‘ . . . F*** off . ’
-… You still have some pride left even in this state? Huhu… well, we’ll talk again when you’re almost dead because of that vampire over there . It’ll be much easier to take control of your body when you’re injur…
Kaiforce couldn't even finish its words .
Clang!
This was because without saying a word, Kang Chul-In dropped Kaiforce on the ground without care .
“Stupid and disrespectful piece of scrap metal . I’ll put you inside a furnace as soon as I get back from this fight . ”
Kang Chul-In roared ferociously .
This was an obvious choice for him .
The Soft-Sword Kaiforce was a sword with consciousness, a cursed Ego Sword .
Kang Chul-In knew that borrowing the strength of this sword to get over precarious situations would land him in a heap of trouble . The position of master and sword might be switched around, with Kang Chul-In being dragged around by Kaiforce instead .
For Kang Chul-In who had a strong sense of domination and didn’t like being dragged around, there was no way that this sort of temptation would be able to sway him .
I am the great Overlord, Kang Chul-In .
Calming himself down, Kang Chul-In walked closer to Alfred .
Kaiforce?
. . . Bullsh**!
In the past, Kang Chul-In was able to overcome his enemies without the help of an Ego Sword like Kaiforce . Using just Fragarch, he was able to make Pangaea tremble in horror just with the mention of his name . Kaiforce? He didn’t necessarily need something like that .
Brrr-!
Though Kaiforce that was thrown away vibrated in rage, Kang Chul-In didn’t even spare it a glance .
He was going to throw it into a furnace after the fight anyway .
“What are you muttering about?”
Alfred looked at Kang Chul-In with a terrifying smile .
“None of your business . ”
“Oh? So you don’t recognize your inferiority and your weakness until the end, puny human . ”
Kang Chul-In decided to ignore the piercing words of Alfred . Instead…
POW!
He punched Alfred’s face as hard as he could .
“Are you satisfied now?”
Alfred, who had recovered from his wounds instantly, taunted Kang Chul-In with a smile .
“I wonder, how do you taste?”
As soon as he said this…
Danger!
Though Kang Chul-In felt a strong suctioning force near his heart and tried to turn his body around, it was a tad too late .
A fistful of blood was taken out of Kang Chul-In’s body and was sucked into Alfred’s body . It was the ability that only powerful True Vampires had that allowed them to drain blood from afar, ‘Psychic Bloodsucking’ .
“Huuu… This doesn’t taste nice . For some reason, your blood feels familiar . The blood of a Lord . . . of a tyrant . ”
To Kang Chul-In, this felt very hypocritical . This young Alfred seemed to have the same arrogance and ambition inside of him that Kang Chul-In has, if not even more .
Overdrive phase two… would last for a maximum of 30 seconds .
Kang Chul-In tried his best to remain cool, and calculated his full strength .
1 second . Just 1 second is all I need . Just one blow .
And Kang Chul-In thought of a method .
Walking forward in large strides, Kang Chul-In started emitting a terrifying aura .
Pzzt, Pzzt!
Overdrive’s 2nd phase, drawn out to its fullest extent . He also had Vortex wrapped around his two fists, so it made sense that the mana around him would create a terrifying aura .
“You made yourself that much stronger in your current state?”
Alfred was startled .
“A final stand before you fall . Using up your life-force for that…”
POW!
Before Alfred could even finish his words, Kang Chul-In interrupted him by punching his face .
30 seconds .
Though it was a short period of time, to the two that were fighting, it seemed much longer .
“KAHH!!”
Alfred screamed in pain .
POW!
PAPOW!
Wrapped around with Vortex, Kang Chul-In’s fists hammered into Alfred’s body . He was overloading Alfred’s healing factor, punching and hitting Alfred too quickly for the healing factor to be able to catch up to the damage taken .
Of course, Alfred wasn’t just getting beaten up one-sidedly .
Shing!
The claws of Alfred managed to scratch Kang Chul-In’s abdomen, and…
Splurt!
Through the wound, blood spurted out . The claws of a true vampire were famed to be as dangerous and sharp as most swords, and this feat proved that .
It was a brutal slugfest .
It was a fight between the two of them where retreating meant certain death .
I can sense it . His healing factor is weakening!
During the fight, Kang Chul-In tried his best in order to slowly, but surely slow down Alfred’s healing factor .
It was obvious .
Although Alfred was a true vampire, the healing wouldn’t last forever . It was apparent that a bit of Alfred’s life-force was used in order to continue healing .
This stupid, lowly human . How long does he think he can go on like this for?
Alfred also had his own plan .
I’m sure he’ll run out of fuel soon . 1 minute? 2 minutes? When all of your strength is gone, I’ll rip you to shreds .
He was aiming for a counter once Kang Chul-In ran out of stamina .
These were the thoughts that flashed through Kang Chul-In and Alfred’s minds . After a few seconds, Kang Chul-In was falling into a state of grogginess due to the backlash .
“I’ll rip your heart out!”
Witnessing the rapid fall of strength in Kang Chul-In, Alfred laughed maniacally . He stretched his arm out to rip Kang Chul-In’s still-beating heart straight out from his chest .
But as soon as he moved to do so,
BANG!
With one last explosion, the space between Kang Chul-In and Alfred started to distort as Kang Chul-in hit Alfred’s abdominal section .
Plop .
Finally, after many blows, Alfred fell to his knees before Kang Chul-In .
“H-How… could a lowly human like you…”
Alfred looked down at his stomach in absolute shock . What he saw was an empty midsection .
“The core inside of me . . . the entirety of it! It’s broken…? How could it be… how…? How is this possible? How!”
Thankfully this time, there was no regeneration . The source of the healing factor had finally been destroyed .
“Hu . . . ”
Kang Chul-In sighed deeply .
He, too, wasn’t fine .
His body was in an absolute mess due to the overuse of mana . And… for the last exchange, the use of the 3rd phase of Overdrive had completely drained him .
That’s right .
At the last moment, Kang Chul-In had activated the 3rd phase of Overdrive combined with Vortex, to destroy the core of Alfred . Obviously Kang Chul-In was going to be in a terrible state . After all, he used a move that he shouldn’t have attempted until after Level 100 .
“K-Kang Chul-In!”
After witnessing everything, Dorian ran towards Kang Chul-In urgently .
“A-Are you alright?”
“I’m fine . ”
“You look like you’re going to die! Sit down!”
“I’m not finished with my job yet . ”
“Then, let me help you . ”
“No, not now . This is not the time . ”
Rather than accepting Dorian’s help, Kang Chul-In walked slowly towards the dying Alfred .
Alfred… you too, huh…
Kang Chul-In bit his lower lip in bitterness .
It was a pleasant surprise when he saw his old subordinates in the dungeon, but it soon turned into bitterness as he had to go through each of them, killing them .
But… now that was finally over . By giving rest to Alfred, this dungeon would finally be over .
As soon as he thought this,
[You have cleared the Epic dungeon, the forgotten territory, the ‘Raging Valhalla’!]
The notification that signified the end of the dungeon popped up in front of Kang Chul-In’s eye .
[The anger of the monsters have dissipated!]
[The rage of the monsters will now head toward the intruders . ]
[The monsters have returned to their original strength . ]
[The rage and hatred that once filled this dungeon has disappeared . ]
That wasn’t it .
Soon after, the rewards for clearing the dungeon came rushing down, like a flood bursting through a dam . Though he wasn’t able to get Lord points or experience from this, the other rewards more than made up for it .
[Reward 1: Epic Item ‘Memory transfer device’ (consumable)!]
[Reward 2: The ‘Valhalla territory’ will be given to the Lord Kang Chul-In . ]
[Reward 3: Mythical HP potion . ]
An epic item, the Valhalla territory, as well as an HP potion that he didn’t know of . Though the rewards weren't life-changing, it was still quite a reward that befitted the hardships he went through .
Pzzt, Pzzt!
Sparks flew up, and a golden crown, along with a flask containing a rainbow-colored liquid appeared in front of Kang Chul-In .
Although he wasn’t interested in the items due to the shock of losing Alfred, the options were shown in front of him anyway .
[Epic]: Memory Transfer Device (consumable)
Made from the Ancient Kingdom’s magic technology academy . The effects are not clear, due to it being only a prototype .
Durability: Consumable
Option: Can send one’s memories into another .
The item had quite a weird explanation .
[Epic]: Mythical HP potion
Contains 100ml .
Effect 1: Can restore 20% of lost life-force .
Effect 2: Can increase regeneration up to 200% for 5 minutes .
It seemed that the Mythical HP potion would be able to save a dying person .
Wait a minute…
Though it seemed a little sketchy since it was a prototype, Kang Chul-In imagined the possibility of what would happen if he gave his memories to Alfred, and saved him using the health potion .
It’s all or nothing .
His heart beating, Kang Chul-In picked up the items, and put the Device on his head .
[Will you activate the ‘Memory Transfer Device’?]
“I will . ”
[Now, a scan will occur for 1 minute . Please hold still . 0: 59… 0:58…]
1 minute passed .
[Scanning complete . Put the device onto the one who will get the memory transfer . ]
Kang Chul-In walked towards the dying Alfred, and put the machine on his head .
[The memories that have been scanned will now be transferred . It will take 1 minute . Please hold still . 0: 59… 0: 58…]
“W-W-What the hell do you think you’re doing t-to me?”
At this point, Alfred seemed like a middle-aged man, as he rapidly aged without his regeneration factors .
POW!
But rather than answering Alfred, Kang Chul-In punched him, and force fed him the HP potion .
The 1 minute that seemed like a year for Kang Chul-In, finally passed .
“ . . . Is it a failure?”
Looking at Alfred, Kang Chul-In bit his lips in bitterness .
It seemed as if not even the Mythical HP potion could stop Alfred’s aging, as Alfred had already gone past being middle-aged, and looked like an old man now . If this continued, Alfred would surely die .
But…
“M-Milord?”
Alfred changed his gaze, and looked towards Kang Chul-In, and spoke .
“M-Milord? Is that really you? I-Is it the Kang Chul-In that I know?”
Tears flowed down Alfred, the old Alfred’s face .
“M-Milord!”
Alfred started to cry his heart out .
