Chapters Chapter 235: Screwed, Really Screwed! (1/2)
I’m against this marriage!
Dialogue seemingly from a drama popped up in the notification.
Warning, warning!
Due to the wearer’s cheating, the penalty has changed from AOE to single target! (Wearer tried to use the penalty option for his own benefit)
Another notification popped up which fl.u.s.tered Kang Chul-In.
“...!”
He originally planned to activate the penalty and escape, but that no longer seemed viable.
Selecting target!
Aura of Jealousy activated!
With an ominous alarm,
Summoning ‘heavenly punishment’ from the sky!
9… 8… 7… 6...
The countdown began.
“H-Husband?”
Ninetails shouted in surprise.
“Below you!”
“Below?”
Kang Chul-In looked down at his feet.
Ssss…!
A red circle had formed around him.
In the middle of it, there was a cross which marked Kang Chul-In as the target.
Shit, we are screwed.
Kang Chul-In let out a bitter smile.
His attempts to game the system had called a bigger catastrophe upon the two of them.
5… 4… 3...
Meanwhile, the countdown continued and it was already approaching 3.
“Ninetails.”
Kang Chul-In spoke.
“Yes?”
“Run. As far as you can.”
“W-What are you talking about!? As your wife, I have a responsibility to stay...”
Ninetails was interrupted.
“Kyaa~!”
Kang Chul-In grabbed Ninetails by her waist and threw her as hard as he could. Ninetails disappeared from sight.
I hope you are fine.
Ninetails, being a demi-human, wouldn’t be badly injured from being thrown a few hundred meters. Still, Kang Chul-In couldn’t help but be worried.
Penalty option, adjusted!
Squall, not activated!
Earthquake, not activated!
Lightning, activated!
The last notification appeared and,
3… 2… 1!
The countdown came to an end.
A flash of lightning struck across the pitch-black sky.
Crack!
The roar of thunder vibrated the entire area.
***
Detecting magic energy!
Danger, danger! Energy level is too high!
Expected spell absorption rate: 5%!
Damage reduction: 40%!
Expected damage still too high! Please dodge!
Kang Chul-In’s spell thirst ability warned him of danger.
Not only was the magic energy absorption rate low, but even the damage reduction rate fell from its usual 100% to 40%.
Moreover, for his spell thirst ability to warn him of the expected damage meant that he could die if hit.
I absolutely have to dodge this!
It was a moment of crisis.
Kang Chul-In did not want to die a dog’s death.
Ooongggg!
His mana shot up the moment he recognized danger, activating the Oraclomind.
And,
Banggg!
A bolt of lightning struck towards Kang Chul-In’s head. It was incomparable to the measly lightning Lee Gong-Myung had conjured in the past.
God damn it!
Kang Chul-In flung his body.
***
Cyamodus operated on a scale comparable to other large territories.
Wasn’t that to be expected?
Rothschild’s specialty, ‘Show Me The Money’, granted him many citizens and infrastructures.
It was similar to how Mansour bought Manchester City FC over and remodeled the entire region!
Crack.
Bang!
However… a catastrophe was about to land on Cyamodus.
Kang Chul-In had begun to race towards the Cyamodus territory, with an impending lightning bolt on his back.
Pang- !
The sound of tearing through space!
Kang Chul-In’s sonic boom echoed in the surroundings.
“W-What?”
“Not a carriage… but a m-man?!”
The citizens of Cyamodus gasped as they witnessed Kang Chul-In dash at the speed of sound.
It was truly an astonishing speed.
A layman could only visualize Kang Chul-In’s faint silhouette.
The problem was… this man was bringing a whole disaster along with him.
Bang!
With a blinding flash, lightning struck.
“...!”
Passersby turned to smoke and ashes in an instant. They were dead before they could even let out a scream.
Damn it, god damn it!
Of course, Kang Chul-In had it rough too.
…Almost died there.
Chills ran down his spine.
It was no easy task to predict when the lightning would strike, not to mention how to dodge it.
Without Oraclomind and his inhumane muscle strength and reaction speed, he would have succ.u.mbed long ago.
Might as well...
Suddenly, Kang Chul-In thought of a good idea.
It was peculiar how good ideas only popped up in these kinds of situations, but whatever.
Let’s destroy the army.
He switched his target to the army.
