Chapter 109  

Chapter 109   . Valhalla Dungeon (pt . 5)“Kuk…”

Dorian stared down at his own abdomen as if he couldn’t believe it .

A black dagger that came out of nowhere was inserted inside his midsection .

BANG!

Kang Chul-In turned to retaliate against the one who had ambushed Dorian .

CLANG!

And with a large collision…

Tat!

The opponent jumped back .

“It’s you…”magic

Kang Chul-In could see the one who had ambushed Dorian .

“ . . . Bellatrix . ”

It was his old subordinate, the one who had been paired with Lucy to form his personal guard, the dark elf Bellatrix .

“Dorian . Just take care of yourself and your injury . I’ll settle this . ”

Leaving Dorian behind him in pain, Kang Chul-In started to walk forwards .

And there… were his old subordinates .

It wasn’t just Bellatrix there .

The ‘Immortal Vanguard’, which was formed late in his reign near 2028, was also there . This was one of the most elite armies that Kang Chul-In boasted of, and was formed of demi-humans that were injured, and chose to be ‘mechanized’ for war .

Close call there .

Kang Chul-In sighed in relief, staring at the group that was once his .

It was lucky that Kang Chul-In met the Immortal Vanguard in this dungeon .

At the time that Kang Chul-In had met his end, each of the members of the Immortal Vanguard were over Level 80 . And that wasn’t even it . They also knew how to use the minor version of Overdrive, due to the tutelage of Kang Chul-In himself .

It would have been impossible to hope for a victory if the Immortal Vanguards were at their former levels .

“So, any last words?”

Bellatrix asked Kang Chul-In, with a voice that seemed to contain rage .

“Not yet . ”

Kang Chul-In answered .

“N-not yet?”

Listening to Kang Chul-In’s answer, Bellatrix threw back her head, and started laughing maniacally . “Pft… Hehe… Hahaha… HAHAHAHA!”

At this point, Bellatrix’s mouth was almost touching the tip of her ears due to the laughter .

“You… You really think that you can live? Kuku…”

Whilst Lucy seemed depressed and melancholic due to the hatred of Kang Chul-In, Bellatrix seemed to have gone mad due to it .

“You . . . Will never get out of here alive . This is going to be your burial ground . It’ll make me feel better when I rip you to pieces, and spread your body parts around Valhalla .

“Is that all you’ve got to say?”

“No, I have a lot more to say… But rather than talk so much…”

Swish!

Bellatrix vanished .

“I’d rather…”

And appeared next to Kang Chul-In, whispering…

“Separate your head from your body . ”

Saying that, she launched another black dagger, a spike that was formed of her own shadow, towards Kang Chul-In’s neck .

Puk-!

Blood flew from around Kang Chul-In’s neck .

“Die . ”

Bellatrix didn’t stop .

“DIE!”Even though Bellatrix was dying, with Kaiforce puncturing a hole through her chest, she spoke towards Kang Chul-In like a raving madman . Just like Lucy, it seemed as if she had difficulties in reining in her emotions .

“Rest now . ”

Kang Chul-In spoke .

Puk-!

Kaiforce made its way to the heart, and ripped it open .

Swish~!

The remains of Bellatrix’s body turned to dust, and was swept off by the wind and carried away .

And next was the leader of the Immortal Vanguard, Robert .

“Who do I serve… My lost loyalty…”

Even while his arms and legs were brutally chopped off, Robert tried his best to remember the Lord he had once served . Even though Kang Chul-In was right in front of him… It made Kang Chul-In frustrated .

Puk!

Kang Chul-In wordlessly stabbed through Robert’s throat .

“Kuk… I… can’t seem to recall Milord's face…”

Bang!

Robert fell to the floor, dead .

“ . . . How long do I have to do this for…”

Kang Chul-In spoke, disarrayed and lost for the first time .

Thinking of the fact that he might have to kill even more of his old subordinates as he progressed through the dungeon, the stress was getting to him .

“Sigh…”

And leaving behind the countless corpses, Kang Chul-In finally leaned against a half-broken wall, and sat down .

“Let’s rest for a little while . ”

“ . . . Even monsters rest?”

“I’m getting to my limit now . ”

Kang Chul-In didn’t try to act tough in front of Dorian .

“Honestly, I think I’m going to die of exhaustion . ”

Bellatrix after Lucy, as well as the Immortal Vanguard . Due to the fact that Kang Chul-In had to activate the Phase 2 Overdrive so often and for such extended periods of time, his body was in a mess .

Only 15% of his mana was remaining, and his stamina was also hitting rock bottom . And worst of all, he wasn’t recovering because of the countless bloody wounds he had .

“It seems like these might be the last potions I drink here . ”

Drawing a breath, Kang Chul-In then proceeded to gulp down a Health potion, and a mana potion that he had .

“Huu…”

Like this, Dorian and Kang Chul-In rested for another two hours .

Putting bandages on his wounds and consuming some emergency food and water, Kang Chul-In was able to somewhat regain his strength .

And they started to move again .

Though they wanted to rest a bit longer, the sense of danger impeded this exhaustion . If they rested for a little longer, who knew if they wouldn’t get ambushed and sent to the underworld .

Thankfully, they didn’t meet any enemies while on their way to the Lord’s hall . Though some ghosts that seemed to be maids came and cried their eyes out and complained to them, nothing major occurred .

The boss should be in the Lord’s hall, right?

Walking across the red carpet that led to the Lord’s hall, Kang Chul-In thought of who the final boss might be .

There were many possibilities .

It could be any of the 5 generals of the Valhalla Army, or it could also be his Vampire Butler Alfred .

But seeing as though it would be impossible to determine who the boss was in a short period of time, Kang Chul-In gave up and decided to just prepare for the upcoming battle .

Finally, Kang Chul-In and Dorian were able to reach the Lord’s hall, where the final boss of the Valhalla territory resided .

But… something was off .

“So you’ve come, cold-hearted one . ”

The boss was someone that Kang Chul-In had never even seen before .

Long, white hair . Pale skin . A tall, skinny body . Sharp eyes, and sharp claws . A man that Kang Chul-In had never seen in his past life, or his current life at that, sat down on the throne that Kang Chul-In had once graced .

“Are you prepared to pay the price?”

With a reddish hue in his eyes, the white-haired man stared at Kang Chul-In coldly . It occurred to Kang Chul-In, observing the man’s features, that the opponent might be a vampire .

“Who are you?”

Kang Chul-In asked .

“State your name . ”

“My name, huh?”

Listening to the answer, Kang Chul-In almost dropped Kaiforce due to his astonishment . It was because this white-haired man was completely different from the ‘man he knew before…’
