Regressing with the King’s Power Chapter 279

Episode 279

Rosaria’s fifth star located in the deepest layer.

The giants arrived at the place protected by Muron less than a day after Taehyeon arrived.

Far beyond the castle walls.

The number of giants in the group reached dozens.

“Were there that many giants left?”

Taehyeon, who was up on the castle’s watchtower, muttered in surprise.

It is said that the giants were defeated by Orgal’s beast tribe and were scattered or lost their lives.

However, it would not be strange if the number of individuals seen now were clearly a group.

‘Rosaria. I wonder if he could have foreseen this far.’

Rosaria simply told Taehyeon to go to the 5th castle and help Muron.

There wasn’t much to say.

But looking at the current situation.

‘I thought Muron wouldn’t be able to handle it.’

Just like Museyran, who was defeated by Bloodia the other day.

A succubus fairy who is the highest-ranking member of Rosaria and has the power of an SSS-level monster.

Even Muron, who must have been active in the deepest level for a longer period of time than Taehyun, looked perplexed, as if he had never thought about the existence of giants.

This was because I was sure that if they were targeting the castle, they would naturally be demonic beasts, vampires, or demons.

[They clung to Orgal without even knowing how shameful they were.]

As Muron said those words, purple magical power overflowed from his body.

‘It’s pretty good.’

I felt the pressure that only a complete SSS-level monster could give off, not temporarily, like Bloodia, who used Igmun’s power.

“so. Should I lead the vanguard?”

Taehyun asked casually.

[Bullshit.]

Muron asked, pointing the direction of speculation towards Taehyeon.

That expression looked like it would tear Taehyun to pieces at any moment.

A conversation with Taehyun the other day.

This is because she promised that she would stand at the forefront in the end and that she would also take command of the corps.

In response to Muron’s willingness to give in to a fight at any moment, Taehyun gave in and said yes.

“But you know, right? “If I determine that the lease is behind, I will step in.”

Taehyun once again asked her for a confirmation.

[That won’t be possible. Insolent human being.]

Muron answered sharply.

Taehyun smiled as if he was satisfied with the answer.

That’s it.

A huge giant came forward.

[Rosaria’s puppies, listen. If you calmly abandon the castle and go out, your life will be spared!!]

Even though it was shouted from far away, the sound rang out all the way to the castle watchtower.

It meant that the amount of magical power contained in the voice was that enormous.

‘Hoo…’

Taehyun was impressed by this guy’s presence.

A perfect SSS level monster.

Not only that, but I felt some unusual power.

Taehyun glanced at Muron, who had a distorted expression.

‘It’s going to be difficult with this guy.’

Even if the SSS level is the same, there will definitely be a gap.

And Muron is a succubus species with relatively weak combat power.

Compared to the giants, their relative power is bound to be lower.

She wouldn’t know that either.

Nevertheless.

[You’re talking bullshit!! You are a traitor to your species!!]

Muron shouted without giving up.

Her voice was also filled with magical power and reached the giants.

In response to that voice, the Succubus Grand Succubus Succubus Knight Grand Succubus Knights guarding various parts of the castle laughed.

A unique, overflowing vitality filled the castle.

Taehyun knew.

‘These guys are nervous.’

The number of succubi is overwhelming.

However, there was a significant difference in the force they had.

Even if you take advantage of Mercury.

‘If there is an all-out war, this side will suffer greater damage.’

How will the battle proceed?

This is when Taehyun is watching with interest.

thud. thud. thud. thud.

A giant broke away from the group.

It was Erebos, the leader of the giants who shouted a moment ago.

As he reached the castle, magical power scattered from the bodies of the succubi.

It was not strange for an attack to begin as soon as Muron gave an order.

[What are you doing, traitor? Are you expecting me to just blow off your head?]

Erebos chuckled at Muron’s provocation.

That smile overflowed with confidence.

[I am Erebos, leading the giants following the previous giant kings.]

Muron’s face twitched at those words.

The same was true for the other guys in the castle.

I felt a buzz.

‘what. Is he famous?’

This is when Taehyun thinks so.

[Is the Giant King’s child parasitic on Orgal? A man who knows no shame!!]

Through Muron’s words, Taehyun was able to know that Erebos was Typhon’s child.

Just like Tartarus, which we dealt with earlier.

[Phew. What you think is none of my business. However, there is no need to make unnecessary sacrifices. How about it? The two of us competing for control of this castle.]

‘Hoo.’

At the moment Taehyun was intrigued by the unexpected request for a journal entry.

Muron raised his loud voice.

[The giants talk nonsense without any hesitation. Why should we do that?]

[Are you trying to take advantage of Mercury? You probably don’t know that such a thing is unsuitable for us monsters.]

[It looks like he learned at least a trick with his tongue after living as a parasite on Orgal.]

That’s when Muron, who said that, was about to give the order to attack.

“why? “I look fine.”

Taehyun, who had been quietly listening to their conversation, suddenly intervened.

[You bastard… I should have said that I have the commanding authority here.]

Muron glared at Taehyeon, who challenged his authority, with an expression that looked like he was about to chew it up and swallow it.

“The command of the castle is none of my business. I’m just saying what I think. “This problem will end when you and that big guy fight one on one, right?”

[If you’re going to talk nonsense….]

“No way, you. “Are you sure?”

[…!!]

At Taehyeon’s casual question, Muron’s face was distorted like that of a murderer.

‘This guy. It’s surprisingly simple.’

Eat.

Even though I tried to hold back, I laughed at the simplicity of it.

It seemed that taking command of the castle would be easier than I thought.

* * *

Rosaria’s fifth castle.

Two monsters were confronting each other in front of him.

They were Muron, the castle’s guardian, and Erebos, the invader.

[Phew. That guy must be the rumored contractor.]

Erebos is far away.

He looked at Taehyun, who was looking down at him from the castle’s watchtower.

It is definitely a human body.

However, the presence that emanated from the glowing red eyes was no different from that of the highest species like themselves.

[You’ll have to worry about your life.]

Muron growled.

It’s because I don’t like the current situation where Taehyun is playing around.

What’s even more annoying is that Kim Tae-hyun’s words are not wrong.

The world of monsters is a world of jungle.

It is not uncommon for the strong to defeat the weak and take their position.

but.

Muron is the highest-ranking member of Rosaria.

There were a lot of things I was carrying.

If we lose here, Rosaria’s territory will be reduced by one.

More than anything.

[You guy. It is not a lie that he is Typhon’s child.]

Erebos of the thunderstorm.

It was a name I had heard before.

As one of Typhon’s children, he swept through past turf wars with power comparable to that of the highest-ranking family.

Even if he had received the power of Rosaria, he was a formidable opponent.

[Don’t worry. I will end your life cleanly.]

[Don’t fuss without knowing the topic. I am a traitor to the giants who became slaves.]

[….]

Suddenly.

Boom.

Erebos’ fist swung to crush Muron.

Muron spread a pair of wings and easily dodged the attack.

and.

Phew. Phew.

Two tentacles sprouted from behind and stuck into Erebos’ arms.

[I heard the movement is like thunder. It’s slower than I thought.]

Grrrr.

The two lodged tentacles rotated rapidly.

It happened in the blink of an eye.

thud.

Erebos’ huge arm was cut off.

[I will give you the mace on behalf of the dead king.]

Muron smiled darkly and unleashed a burst of purple magic.

* * *

“It’s a lot better than I thought.”

Taehyun commented as he watched the battle between Muron and Erebos.

The evaluation target was Muron.

It seems that the duel was not accepted because of Taehyun’s provocation.

Muron was pressuring Erebos all the time.

The suddenly sprouted wings fight at high speeds, and the tentacles boast the prowess of any famous sword, slaughtering Erebos’ body.

Is that all?

The power she received from Rosaria.

‘Mental control’ was already limiting the movements of the huge Erebos.

For Erebos, neither attack nor defense could be perfect.

‘I guess it’s worth entrusting the castle to you.’

I can assure you that a mediocre SSS level monster would not be able to withstand her for even a few minutes and would die.

I felt that way without even having to look at it.

‘but.’

Erebos was also not an ordinary SSS level monster.

A child who inherited the blood of Grand Duke Typhon.

The guy was quickly regenerating the arm that had been blown away by Muron and attacking again.

As if losing an arm or two was no big deal.

Suddenly.

The back of Erebos’ knee was cut off by Muron’s tentacle.

Cooung.

Because the tendon was cut, Erebos had no choice but to kneel down on one knee.

Pupupupupup.

Muron flapped his wings and cut out the giant’s eyes.

Blood splattered and flesh splattered.

[It’s the end.]

Magical power was concentrated in Muron’s body as he said that.

Sigh.

The two tentacles split into six.

It seemed like he was planning on extracting the magic gemstone.

nettle liquid.

It was a movement like a flash of light.

Muron’s body pierced the body of Erebos, who had not yet regenerated his red eyes.

‘It’s over.’

Tiring.

[Skill Stealth (SS) has been activated.]

[Skill Heart of a Higher Species (SS) has been activated.]

Ssssssut.

Taehyun’s body was sucked into the darkness.

* * *

Muron was confident of victory.

Erebos’s fist was as fierce as a giant’s, and his speed was so fast that it could not be said of a giant’s.

Nevertheless.

[It wasn’t a good match.]

The corners of Muron’s mouth turned up bitterly.

Wings that only a small number of high-ranking monsters have.

Tentacles that can cut off any rigid body.

In addition, his mental control was strengthened by the power of Rosaria.

It was natural that Erebos, who tried to deal with him simply through strength and speed regeneration, was defeated.

but.

Her thoughts went astray at the last moment.

Pajijijik.

Electricity flashed from Erebos’ body.

This is the moment when she reached out to extract the magic stone of Erebos.

Pazzzzzzzzzz.

The lightning that was nothing more than a weak spark became as gigantic as thunder.

My whole body felt tingly.

A brief gap changed the situation.

Kwasik.

Erebos’ one remaining arm grabbed her.

[I caught you off guard.]

Grinning.

Erebos’ red eyes, which had already finished regeneration, were smiling.

Crash.

As Erebos gave strength, the bones of his entire body tightened.

The rigid body of the highest species is shattered just by grasping the hand.

[Khaak…]

Muron groaned without realizing it.

[It was a fairly plausible battle. [It’s a succubus fairy.]

It’s a succubus.

This is the moment when the electricity emitted from Erebos’ body is about to burn Muron.

Suddenly.

Suddenly, Erebos’ arm was cut off by something sharp.

Cooung.

A huge arm fell to the ground.

Muron, unable to use its mangled wings, fell helplessly.

and.

Ssssssut.

A man appeared next to her, who had fallen in an unsightly manner.

“The commander is disqualified, Muron. It’s a player replacement.”

Taehyun carrying a huge sword on his shoulder.

He gave a command while unleashing dark red magic power.
