Game of Divine Thrones Book 9 Chapter 211

“I’ll cast concealment magic, so move as we practiced before.”

“Yes, Master!”

Roan’s fear of becoming a ball-less eunuch was so great that he was answering formally to every one of Woohyuk’s commands.

While he was moving irregularly using the various small black holes…

[I will kill you all.]

After completely smashing Black Demolition, Kuruela was preparing for a new AOE magic spell.

The new spell would distort space-time and destroy all beings within a sphere of influence.

The power of the spell was frightening, but the casting time and the consumption of energy were severe, so it was an ultimate that was not used in the last mock battle.

Brynnhilt, who felt something off, voiced her concern to Woohyuk,

“Was that magic circle in our plans? I feel something very ominous from that circle.”

“It certainly wasn’t in our plans. I’m surprised that she’s still focusing on casting magic even though her body is gradually being eroded by God Death.”

He recalled that, when using the cloning ability, Kuruela didn’t need a magic circle like the one right now.

It would be fortunate if Roan arrived before the end of Kuruela'’ss magic casting, but the possibility of his arrival was uncertain. Already, a lot of time had already passed.

If Kuruela’s magic circle was able to pull off what she intended to do with it, the expected damage was extremely large, probably too large to overcome.

After considering his options, Woohyuk made a bold decision,

“From now on, everyone will rush at Kuruela. We shouldn’t give her any more time to cast her spell.”

He had to gamble since there was too much uncertainty.

In the case of the 72 Demon Kings, if they were to take a lethal amount of damage, they were sent to a different dimension by the system. The entrapped Demon King would be forced to sleep for thousands of years without any possibility to escape. This would happen even if they were sealed by Remegeton.

Meanwhile, when others died, that was it.

Nakron, who belonged to the new Game of Divine Throne system, wasn’t exactly in a state of immortality.

However, everyone obeyed Woohyuk’s order without another word.

It was because they believed that only he could prevent this catastrophe/disaster.

KwKwKwKwKwKwKwKwak!

Soon, when the focused attacks started their onslaught on her, Kuruela frowned.

[Do not disturb… do not!]

A purple ray of light was fired from her index finger, cutting a group of Liches’ waists.

Fortunately, the other allies safely evaded the attack.

After re-establishing a formation, they tried to jointly break Kuruela’s shield.

KwKwKwKwKwKwKwKwak! 

The sound of explosions rang out in succession.

Since Woohyuk was added to this joint attack, Kuruella felt threatened for the first time. It was enough to stop her from casting the ultimate magic spell for now.

[I really hate it… all of you worthless beings…!]

A long, pitch-black spear was created above Kuruela’s hand.

Afterward, the pitch-black spear tore through the air and flew towards her enemies.

Hwi~Ee!

It was an attack that was better to avoid than face head-on. As everyone in the attacking party stepped back or aside, Kuruela spread her wings and shot sharp feathers, as if she knew they would avoid her attack.

SasSasSasSasSasa!

She attacked in ways that Woohyuk had never seen before.

Woohyuk’s party members became nervous at the unfolding events and relied on the guardian barrier once more.

“The battle pattern is getting more and more complicated! If we don’t finish her off quickly, we might not be able to live!”

“Wait a little longer. Roan is close to reaching her.”

Roan gradually narrowed his distance from Kuruela while the others prevented her from casting her ultimate magic spell.

“… That’s why I hate girls who have wings,” Roan muttered, popping out of a small black hole.

He was extremely annoyed because this transportation strategy didn’t work as well as he expected in approaching his target.

He wanted to just rush to the front and spit out a cool vulgar line before applying the finishing blow, but he knew that if he did that, he would have to part with his precious body parts.

“Oh, I’m almost there now.”

Kuruela was continually pouring her attacks on Woohyuk’s party.

Thanks to this, Roan was somewhat free from her attention.

Now, he was able to utilize this gap and inflict a final blow on Kuruela with his Ragnor weapon.

[Master! I finally came right behind this bitch! Come on, give me an attack order!]

[Wait a minute. I’ll draw her attention to this side first.]

If they tried to apply a critical hit willy-nilly, Kuruela could try to counterattack by duplicating the Ragnor Weapon.

When Woohyuk sent a signal, the seven Demon Kings shuddered before charging towards Kuruela.

“I’m going to act as bait for a Homunculus…”

“Don’t complain and focus on the battle, Dantalion. If you make a mistake, you’ll perish anyway.”

“I don’t think I’ll easily forget today’s events. Of course, that’s if I make it out of here alive.”

“I don’t want to go to sleep for thousands of years. What am I going to do for thousands of years?”

All of the Demon Kings had unsatisfied expressions on their faces.

However, the owner of the Remegeton said to attack, so they had to attack.

When the Seven Demon Kings caught Kuruela’s attention by risking their lives, Roan became excited and summoned his Ragnor Weapon.

‘I’ll make sure to flatten you, good for nothing winged girl!’

He was the forbidden ancient weapon, a Homunculus.

Even the gods were afraid of his potential and discarded him, but now, the gods’ seals that restrained him were completely released.

There was nothing that could stand in its way, not even a fallen angel or a catastrophe/disaster.

It was only his master who he had to be careful around.

‘If you successfully complete the mission, the master will reward me with alcohol and girls.’

Although he still had some value system misconceptions and some bad habits, Roan was definitely tamed by Woohyuk.

The fear of becoming a ball-less being exerted more power on Roan’s psyche than Woohyuk expected.

As Roan leaped into the air and revealed his murderous intentions, Kuruela paused for a moment and looked back.

[What are you?]

“A legendary warrior who came to punish you!”

Ragnor changed from a translucent, bluish dagger into a giant dragon.

Afterward, Ragnor cried fiercely and tried to bite Kuruela!

However, Kuruela didn’t get hit easily.

[It’s useless… little child.]

A pitch-black spear flew across the air and struck Ragnor.

KwAng!

At the same time, a tremendous shockwave shook the entire space!

Each member of Woohyuk’s party took a few steps back while shielding themselves with their own guardian barriers.

‘The sneak attack was blocked.’

If everything was left as is, Kuruela would start attacking his party with a replicated Ragnor.

Woohyuk gave an emergency order to the rest of his party members, except Roan.

“I want you all to attack Kuruela from a distance. I’ll finish Kuruela off with Roan.”

“Okay!”

“Long-range magic is my specialty!”

“Phew… Have we finally escaped from the bait role?”

“Fortunately, I didn’t suffer a lot of damage.”

The seven Demon Kings were relieved and began to take their place in the rear.

It seemed like they’d become quite accustomed to cooperating with each other now.

Meanwhile, Nakron and Brynhilt also nodded and observed Kuruela from afar to recognize her attack pattern.

“That fallen angel is definitely strong, but she doesn’t control her abilities properly. Perhaps it’s because her consciousness was eroded by something that corrupted her.”

“That’s right, so if we keep confronting her, she’ll definitely reveal a gap. I don’t think there are any more unique attack patterns.”

The only thing they had to pay special attention to was her ability to clone weapons and the ultimate she was trying to cast.

Woohyuk quickly narrowed the distance between himself and Kuruela. He immediately released his inner mana supply.

He entered Asura’s absolute space.

Since he overcame the limits in the previous battle, the range of space was further expanded, reaching all the way to the ground.

“Now, let’s fight properly, Fallen Angel Kuruela.”

Until now, he had fought to attract her attention so that Roan could deal the final, critical blow.

However, since things progressed to this point, he had to go all-out.

He had to use all of his trump cards to put an end to the battle.

As Kuruela eyed the approaching Woohyuk, he confused her by creating dozens of alter-images.

It was a skill stored in the Nocturne of the Crescent Moon, a power of the 72nd Demon King, Dantalion.

Thanks to this, Roan was able to exchange positions with one of Woohyuk’s alter images using his swap skill.

“Woo! Thank you, Master. I almost died by that winged bitch.”

“I’ll be dealing with Kuruela, so try to get through the gaps like before.”

This time, he had to succeed no matter what.

When Woohyuk pulled out the last card, Kuruela focused all her attacks on him.

[Don’t… don’t try to pull a fast one.]

Even in her eyes, Woohyuk was the opponent to be wary of.

With a single shield to endure the oncoming long-distance attacks from the other enemies, Kuruela brought out numerous beasts and demons from within herself.

It was to deal with all of Woohyuk’s alter images.

Then, as if expected this response, Woohyuk raised Verserios and caused an Absolute Space abyss to form.

Go-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh! 

In Asura’s Absolute Space, Verserios was able to exert much stronger power than usual.

While the beasts were torn apart by the vortex formed by the abyss, Woohyuk avoided the purple laser and gradually narrowed his gap to Kuruela.

‘I will have to risk dying.’

As long as he didn’t die immediately, any injuries could be recovered at least once with the Power of Resuscitation.

The problem was that he had to restrict Kuruela from using her cloning ability.

Currently, only the Ragnor Weapon was capable of restricting her cloning ability, as it could absorb her ability through a critical hit.

‘It’ll have to be the same as back then.’

There seemed to be no other way at the moment other than the method of rushing head-on and being trapped on purpose. He had previously given up his heart for her head.

When Woohyuk finally reached his destination, he aimed for Kuruela’s heart with the black currents of Verserios…

[Do you think you can… win?]

Kuruela’s eyes flashed red once more as she grabbed Verserios with her left hand.

At the same time, a purple Verserios was cloned in her right hand.

As in the simulated battle, she was deliberately waiting for this moment to target Woohyuk’s weakness.

KwJik!

Woohyuk’s black veil defensive barrier was cracked by the cloned Verserios.

Everything happened quickly.

The other allies couldn’t hide their surprise and utter fear.

“Hero King!”

“Asura looks like he’s taken a fatal hit!” 

“Come on, let’s provide support!”

Everyone ran towards Kuruela at once.

However, the cloned Verserios was already digging into Woohyuk’s heart.

Poo-Ook!

With a blunt sound, red blood poured out like a fountain from his chest.

“Keu-Euk…!”

However, Woohyuk tried to grab Kuruela’s neck without hesitation.

Trying to break her neck bone in exchange for giving up his heart, just like he did in the simulated battle.

However, the next scene was clearly different from that time.

[I thought you’d try something funny.]

As if Kuruela expected Woohyuk’s actions, his outstretched arm was pushed away by a beast.

Crack!

Woohyuk’s strategy had changed her behavior.

However, there was another variable.

“Don’t forget I’m here, you bitch!” Roan shouted, digging into the gap Kuruela had behind her.

Afterward, the Ragnor changed from a dagger to a long lance, piercing the heart of Kuruela.

Poo-Ook!

Kuruela opened her eyes wide, as if surprised, and vomited black blood from her mouth.

[Urrr…!]

After a long battle, her gap was finally revealed and taken advantage of.

Roan was filled with joy and cried out to Woohyuk.

“Master! I was successful! I killed the winged bitch!”

“… Good job.”

Woohyuk stepped back to heal his dying body with the Power of Resuscitation.

When Roan was about to spit out an insult towards Kuruela with a satisfied expression,

[I cannot die like this…] Kuruela muttered, covering her body with both wings.

At the same time, the landscape transformed.

Woohyuk frowned at the thought of his final blow being countered.

‘… Is this a parallel imaginary world?’
