Chapters Chapter 217: Dorian the Phantom Thief (1/2)
“…!” Aleister was caught by surprise.
He was hundreds of meters away from Kang Chul-In, but that vicious Overlord was already at his doorstep.
Judging from his speed, most people wouldn’t even know why and how they died.
”!كیسونغ“ In that instant, Aleister hurriedly chanted a spell to summon a bone wall.
Crack!
The bone wall shattered in the blink of an eye.
“Huk!” Aleister gasped.
Chulkuk,
Swishhh!
Kang Chul-In swung his Demon Sword Kaiforce at Aleister.
-Kyaaaaahhh!
At that moment, a shadow rapidly charged towards Kang Chul-In while letting out a terrifying scream.
-Kyaaak!
-Kehe!
-Kekeke!
It wasn’t just one.
Four female undead monsters with different skin colors were seen.
Huh.
Kang Chul-In could immediately identify them.
Banshees.
Banshees had incredible agility that was five times that of a man. They boasted great attack and movement speed.
Moreover, each skin color indicated a different unique ability, which made dealing with these banshees extremely tricky. Even Kang Chul-In could have some difficulties against them.
-Kyaaak!
A blood banshee with crimson-red skin swung her 15 centimetre long claws at Kang Chul-In.
Known as ‘Fresh Blood of Christmas’, this claw attack could infect its victim with hemophiliac curse, causing the victim to bleed to death.
-Kekeke!
This time, a blue-skinned arctic banshee ambushed Kang Chul-In from the back, releasing an icy aura. Her attack, known as ‘Cold Embrace’, could freeze the victim to death.
-Kehee!
Next, a black-skinned demonic banshee attacked Kang Chul-In with a life draining attack called ‘Kiss of Death’, and a white-skinned electronic banshee tried to electrocute him with ‘Thunder God’s Aura’.
These bastards.
A corner of Kang Chul-In’s mouth twitched momentarily.
The banshees were attacking him from the north, south, east and west. In normal circ.u.mstances, Kang Chul-In would have been in some trouble.
However,
“Get lost, small fries!” Kang Chul-In bellowed and mingled with the banshees.
Who could stop him with the [Full Moon] buff activated?
The banshees were launching a deadly attack indeed, but it was no threat to the buffed-up Kang Chul-In.
It didn’t take long for him to mangle the banshees.
Crack, crack!
Light Sword Mitra, the ultimate counter to the undead monsters, was held in his left hand.
Chulkuk!
Kaiforce, the bloodthirsty demon sword, was held on his right.
Swinging the contrasting two swords, Kang Chul-In showed dynamic movement resembling a fierce predator. He pushed the undead female warriors back courageously.

”مشروع قانون من جانب واحد بسبب امتلاك“ Meanwhile, Aleister was constantly chanting necromancy spells.
It was a good battle strategy.
While the banshees were pressuring Kang Chul-In, Aleister was preparing the perfect condition to use the Death Calling.
C-Crack!
A crack propagated through the ground.
-Keuhhhhh...
About a thousand ghouls emerged from the ground, their bodies swollen and dripping with rotten sap.
-Come...
-Come… with us...
-To the deep… cold underground...
These were not ordinary ghouls.
They were ghosts of drowned corpses.
In other words, Aleister was summoning drowned victims as undead monsters, instead of using the fallen soldiers on the battlefield.
His intention was to hold Kang Chul-In in place, as the ghosts of drowned victims tended to not let go of others.
”...بیة تختبر تشغیل“ Aleister refused to stop.
“ من الخبراء في كوریا الجنوبیة اليوم الاربعاء من ان التجارب ...النوویة الكوریة ...الشمالية“ He kept chanting spells to summon even more powerful undead monsters.
-Keek, Keeek?!
Among them were ten level 65 spider monsters called ‘atlach nacha’.
Their job was obviously to hold Kang Chul-In as well.
The spider webs from atlach nacha, called ‘Chain of Restraint’, were strong enough to disable even the largest of monsters. It was enough to shackle Kang Chul-In.
Chuk!
50 skeleton knights appeared from nowhere and surrounded Aleister to protect him.
Necromantic Vanguard.
These knights were newly appointed replacements for the death knights who were wiped out in the Fox Valley battle.
Aleister felt safe under their protection. He grasped the epic item ‘Jadeite Skull Wand’ tightly.
This wand had a jade-colored skull the size of a volleyball attached to its shank. It was an incredible item which amplified mana by a whopping 200% for 10 seconds.
I shall end you fast, Kang Chul-In!
Aleister now acknowledged that he was weaker than his opponent. Therefore, he gathered all his strength to put an end to the strongest and most evil Overlord of all. He was a practical man who could make sound judgment, instead of deploying unnecessary courage.
Moreover, there was no doubt that it was the wisest move he could have made in that situation.
Ooongggg!
The dark mana started to vibrate,
Sssss…!
The skull wand spurted flashes of green light in all directions.
”.وریا الجنوبیة الیوم ...الاربع ,اء من“
Subsequently, Aleister began chanting the most powerful spell he knew, ‘Necromantic Field’.
Necromantic Field was a super high-level magic that boosted all undead monsters within a 1,600m² range of the user by 250%.
In addition, it shaved 10% of the stats off of any living person stepping in the field for three seconds. In total, a living person lost 30% of their power just by standing there.
It made allies stronger and enemies weaker.
With this Necromantic Field, Aleister could hunt down even Kang Chul-In, the strongest figure in the whole of Pangaea.
However, it was easier said than done.

The Necromantic Field was almost complete.
Bang!
An intense sound thundered in the surroundings as rotten flesh, blood, and bones scattered everywhere.
-Kyaaaak!
-Keeeek!
The banshees let out their final shriek.
And,
Swish!
A huge whirlwind headed straight towards Aleister, tearing everything apart in its path.
“W-What?!”
Aleister instinctively sensed danger and flung his body to the side.
