Team: HH, thursdays, Yahiko (11/12)
Yeon-woo instinctively pulled out Vigrid from subspace and raised it
Clang!
The venomous fang of the monster snake dangerously stopped right above Yeon-woo’s head. It struggled to swallow Yeon-woo, but Yeon-woo’s firm Demonic Dragonic Body didn’t budge
Still, the strength of the monster snake wasn’t to be laughed at.
If it was a normal monster, its head would’ve been cut off, but it was strong enough to endure against Vigrid’s attack.
Ching. Vigrid trembled.
Yeon-woo was able to know the identity of the snake with his Draconic Eyes.
“…..Elaine.”
Another executive of Triton. It was Elaine’s transformed form.

〈Transformation – Monster〉. The god Charybdis was an outstanding monster, so not only could her apostle Elaine have the Authority of ruling monsters, she also had the Authority to change into Charybdis’s shedding.
However, Elaine didn’t like transforming into a monster. The fact that she had turned into this form meant one thing.
“Are you planning on getting rid of me first?”
“That’s right.”
The answer to Yeon-woo’s murmur to himself came from behind him. Jinrang had appeared with still eyes.
“So please die here, Hoarder.”
Swek!
The twin swords in Jinrang’s hands were swung. Sturdy Aura came from the blades and let out a brilliant light.
〈True Tornado〉. It was a skill that attacked with the force of a tornado each time he swung his swords.
Right before his blade slid across Yeon-woo’s back, Yeon-woo circulated his Magic Circuit. The Philosopher’s Stone that had been waiting was heated, and his wings of fire spread apart.

Kwaang—
A powerful heat expanded and flicked Jinrang away. Jinrang was pushed away, leaving a deep mark in the ground. He looked at Yeon-woo with his eyes wide open.
His arms were simmering. Above his burnt black skin, white steam was wafting up, causing him intense pain.
He was able to restore his body with holy power, but he couldn’t believe that his body, which received the grace of the ocean, could be hurt like this from heat.
His shock didn’t end there.
Yeon-woo wrapped the fire around his body and turned his body to the side. Vigrid, which was shining white, turned black and caused an explosion.
Wave of Fire. An explosion that couldn’t be compared to before swept Elaine and Jinrang instantaneously. It filled their surroundings.
Kwakwakwang—
The barrier surrounding the air couldn’t endure the expansion of heat and was destroyed. The heat wave drew a whirlwind outside of the barrier and soared up into the sky. The atmosphere was ripped apart.
Jinrang rolled on the floor for a while after being blown away. He used his sword as a cane to force himself up, but when he did, his eyes shook.

‘How can this…..?!’
His plan was simple.
While the Chest of Souls and Necropolis were busy from the sudden attack of the monsters, he and Elaine would take care of Yeon-woo and then the rest of them.
He didn’t think it would be hard.
This place was Poseidon’s holy territory, with his direct blessing, and if they fought from this closed space, he thought they definitely had a chance.
For the other forces, they could just hang on until Benteke opened the iron door and came out.
However, Jinrang belatedly realized that his judgement was wrong.
Yeon-woo wasn’t simply someone Elaine and he could work together to catch.
‘So…..he was a monstrous guy who becomes stronger with every battle.’
Was he hiding his abilities, or was he just stronger? The latter was just proved. Yeon-woo used the same ability that he used when he was fighting with Benteke.

‘No. Or maybe it was both of them.’
However, Jinrang had to think again.
Two Inferno Sights were floating above Yeon-woo’s head like will o’ the wisps. No, they were watching him. It sent shivers down Jinrang’s back.
What was that?
That was all Jinrang could think of. His head became blank just by looking at it. Was this what it meant for your heart to beat out of your chest? He felt like he was hanging on the edge of a cliff.
The moment he saw it, he realized.
Those two eyes were nothing compared to its owner. What he had thought about a separate space being above Yeon-woo’s head was wrong. Yeon-woo was hiding something, an even bigger card up his sleeve.
That wasn’t the only problem.
“N, No. D, Don’t come here!”
Elaine, who had returned to her human form, was filled with fear. She had fallen on her bottom, and she was moving back while kicking her feet against the ground. Her clothes were drenched with sweat, and the fear on her charred face was apparent to see.

The person who had just snickered when her little brother was dead, someone who always thought about how to feel exhilarated. It was the first time Jinrang saw her like that.
That was how scared Elaine was of Boo’s eyes. Much more than what Ted had felt.
People saw as much as they knew.
As the king of monsters, she could see exactly how powerful Boo was and how high he towered above them.
To people like her, Boo was an absolute being who couldn’t be surpassed.
Even if Elaine was a ranker and confident in her strength, there were limits that she couldn’t surpass because of the difference in properties.
Boo was someone beyond those limits. No, he was way above them; he was someone she couldn’t even look at. It was impossible that she was confronting him like this right now.
The Blessing of Charybdis that always protected her had become faint and didn’t return.
「You. Recognized. Me.」
His eyes narrowed as he spoke so only Elaine could hear him. He whispered quietly, but it felt like a shout in Elaine’s head. Her skull felt like it was tightening, and her insides tossed.

「Then.」
What came after made Elaine’s heart beat wildly.
「Die.」
