Chapters Chapter 140. Using the Skill Absorption! (2/2)
Alaric recalled who Kang Chul-In was, remembering that the man in front of him was the one who invaded Kalevala and made such a mess in his territory. He was an enemy that he wouldn’t be satisfied with just ripping apart.
But Alaric’s anger and enmity was quickly cooled down by his keen senses.
Looking at Kang Chul-In, Alaric got chills down his spine.
I-Is this fear…?
As a beast, Alaric could instinctively realize that Kang Chul-In was powerful.
“Let’s finish this quickly, puppy.”
Without knowing that he had become a terrifying enemy in Alaric’s mind, Kang Chul-In started to swing his club at Alaric.
--------
The battle ended with Alaric’s death.
“K-Kr…”
Alaric was beaten up so badly that by the end of the fight, he was whimpering like a dog.
“Hmph, you have thick bones.”
Kang Chul-In smirked.
At that moment.
Dudum.
Kang Chul-In’s heart started to beat faster, and a message popped up in front of him.
[You have completely suppressed Alaric, the King of the Beasts.]
Even in this state, it still seemed that the system recognized this dog as the ‘King of the Beasts.’
[Alaric, King of the Beasts.]
Ability: Full Moon.
Type: Passive (has requirements)
Details:
- +20% Attack when under the full moon
- +20% Defense when under the full moon
- +20% Regeneration when under the full moon
Aftereffects: None.
Would you like to absorb this ability? Yes / No
Oh!
Kang Chul-In’s eyes gleamed like diamonds.
It’s not a bad ability, for a mere dog.
In reality, this wasn’t just an ability that wasn’t bad, but rather it was incredibly useful.
Though it had requirements of being under the full moon, he could get incredible merits out of it if used properly. It wasn’t an overstatement to say that it was an SSS ranked ability if used correctly.
“Puppy.”
Kang Chul-In grabbed Alaric’s head.
“K...Kuk…”
And Alaric whimpered.
At this moment, Alaric truly was a dog under Kang Chul-In’s feet.
“I’ll eat it well.”
“H-Hiik!”
Alaric shuddered in fear that he would really be eaten---
And indeed, he was.
Kang Chul-In grabbed Alaric’s face, and the absorption started.
With a noise that sounded as if something was being vacuumed in, Alaric screamed.
“A-Aghhhh!!”
It was more of a cry of despair than a scream.
At this, even the watching demi-humans turned their heads, terrified of what was happening to the King of the Beasts.
Soon, Alaric’s body started to become like that of a mummy, becoming all dried up. His ability had been absorbed, as had his life-force.
5 minutes later.
[You have received 300 health from Alaric!]
[You have completed absorbing the ability ‘Full Moon’ from Alaric!]
This message appeared in front of Kang Chul-In.
But unlike Kang Chul-In’s satisfied face, the nearby demi-humans looked on, terrified.
T-To think that the advisor was that cruel…
What a terrifying dragon…
To eat… the King of the Beasts… It would be impossible unless he was an evil dragon…
Don’t tell me… he’s the demon king?
As their fears increased, so did their misunderstandings.
Ancient Gold Dragon.
Evil Dragon.
And Demon King.
This just showed how overbearing Kang Chul-In’s strength was, and how much it had shocked the demi-humans of Fox Valley.
“We are finished!”
At that moment, Kang Chul-In shouted, crushing Alaric’s face.
“The stupid wolf that had threatened you is now gone!”
“This is your, no, our victory! We have won in the battle against those stupid wolves and the undead!!”
As Kang Chul-In’s loud voice echoed throughout Fox Valley---
“Hooray!”
“We won! We won!”
“It’s a victory!”
“Hooray for the Queen!”
“Hooray for Lord Advisor!”
“Hooray for Fox Valley!”
Thunderous cheering could be heard from the demi-humans of Fox Valley.
-------
At that same time, another army was celebrating their victory.
“Hooray for Lord Rothschild!”
“Hooray for the Cyamodus territory!!”
“Hooray for Strategist Lee Gong-Myung!”
Alex Rothschild’s troops cheered and screamed, standing atop of the walls of the Esmerelda territory.
“Kuhahaha! Good bye, stupid dogs of Vilhelm!”
“We won!”
The soldiers of the Cyamodus territory ridiculed the running troops of Albrecht Vilhelm.
But even at this joyous moment for them, there was someone who wasn’t laughing.
This isn’t enough.
It was the young, scholarly Asian man who was the right hand of Alex Rothschild, Lee Gong-Myung.
