I Became the Tyrant of a Defense Game

Chapter 795

Chapter 795

Boom!

As the giant crocodile monster and octopus monster — Leviathan and Kraken — collided, the surrounding ground burst apart, and an enormous amount of water gushed out from the underground water veins exposed below.

Leviathan possessed the authority to control such water flows, so it raised several water tornadoes to attack the Kraken.

Though the Kraken was a sea monster, it lacked the ability to control water. Instead,

“Hnngh-!”

King Poseidon, riding atop the Kraken, had such power.

With the authority over waves he possessed as the Merfolk King, King Poseidon controlled opposing water streams to counteract Leviathan’s water streams.

And under this curtain of water bombs and monsoon rains, the Kraken was approaching Leviathan closely, extending its long tentacles.

Leviathan opened its long mouth filled with endless sharp teeth, trying to swallow the Kraken in one gulp, but-

The Kraken stretched out countless tentacles, tightly wrapping around Leviathan’s mouth before it could open. The crocodile monster’s long mouth was forcibly closed.

The two monsters, entangled in this state, rolled violently over the swamp. They rolled their bodies, struggling with all their might to gain the upper position, and each time, the ground exploded and water spray rose.

Not only the small and medium-sized monsters caught in the range, but even large monsters were crushed to a pulp and died.

‘They’re fighting evenly for now, but the Kraken is being pushed back!’

King Poseidon gritted his teeth as he assisted the Kraken.

Though both were monsters that lived in water, this swamp terrain was a bit more advantageous for Leviathan.

The Kraken was ultimately a sea monster. While it could fully exert its power swimming freely in the vast ocean, Leviathan was unhindered whether in swamps or rivers.

From the start, since Leviathan itself had the ability to cause floods and turn any place into a water-filled area… paradoxically, it could fully exert its abilities anywhere, be it a desert or snowy mountain.

The battle situation gradually became favorable for Leviathan.

Poseidon, having already passed on his authority as a racial deity, was also struggling to intercept the water streams Leviathan was shooting out.

‘At this rate…!’

Just as King Poseidon sensed defeat and gritted his teeth.

Buoooo…!

Suddenly, a shadow fell over the heads of Leviathan and Kraken locked in fierce combat.

As the two monsters momentarily stopped fighting to look in that direction…

“…?!”

It was falling.

The giant elephant — Behemoth.

Right on top of where the two aquatic monsters were battling!

“What…!”

In Poseidon’s startled eyes, he saw Violet screaming far away on top of Behemoth’s head.

Violet had used her ultimate skill [Daydream], successfully infiltrating Behemoth’s consciousness and making it lose balance.

Though Leviathan and Kraken were ultra-colossal monsters far surpassing the scale of ordinary large monsters, Behemoth was a being with an exceptionally huge body even among ultra-colossal monsters.

It was truly like an entire mountain range falling on their heads.

‘This can’t be avoided-‘

Just as King Poseidon was bracing for impact.

“…?!”

Along with the sense of a terrifying evil aura spreading, his skin crawled all over with goosebumps.

King Poseidon, bewildered, urgently looked to the side…

There she was.

On top of the mountain of corpses of other monsters swept up in the battle of the ultra-colossal monsters.

The ‘Sleepless Lake Princess’ looking up emotionlessly at the falling Behemoth heading towards her.

“…”

Massive darkness gathered in the woman’s hand, then shaped into a long sword. The darkness within the sword condensed and condensed endlessly.

And the ‘Sleepless Lake Princess’ lightly swung that sword upwards.

…

For a moment, King Poseidon felt as if sound had been cut off from the world.

But it wasn’t sound that had been cut.

It was the world.

Riiiiip!

As sound rapidly returned, the world tore apart simultaneously.

The single stroke that the ‘Sleepless Lake Princess’ swung lightly split the massive body of the falling Behemoth in half, left and right.

No, it wasn’t just Behemoth.

The sky and earth where that sword path was drawn — split apart as well.

The ground cracked and red-hot lava erupted, while the clouds remaining in the sky completely evaporated.

It was transcendental violence.

And, through the split sky, pitch-black otherworldly darkness seeped in…

“…?!”

Something white writhed and filled that gap.

The white things pushed each other frantically, fighting, and then something round spun on top of the white bodies, focusing…

Tack.

It ‘saw’ below.

Only then did King Poseidon realize.

They were eyes.

The white was the whites of eyes. The round things were pupils.

Countless eyes, indescribably huge and simultaneously filled with evil intent…

Were staring directly only at the ‘Sleepless Lake Princess’.

“What is that…”

King Poseidon, who had been muttering in bewilderment, snapped back to his senses immediately after.

“Buoooooo…!”

Behemoth, split in half, let out a miserable scream as it completely collapsed to the ground.

The earth, already split by the sword of darkness, shattered completely with a tremendous impact, and Leviathan and Kraken could not escape its aftermath.

Boom!

The world collapsed.

Shh. Shh.

Violet’s eyebrows twitched at the sound of hissing nearby.

“Mmm…”

Shh. Shh.

Then the hissing sound gradually got closer…

Lick.

Something moist licked Violet’s cheek.

“Eeeeeek!”

Violet sat up abruptly, letting out an ugly scream.

“Wha-what! What just… Oh, Jörmungandr. It’s you.”

Right beside Violet was Jörmungandr, shrunk to about the size of a python, flicking its tongue.

As Violet came to her senses and looked around, she was in some crevice of the hideously collapsed ground. It seemed she had rolled down into a gap in the valley created by the splitting earth.

“How did this area end up in this state…? It’s a miracle I’m alive.”

Though Jörmungandr had safely caught Violet as she fell with its body, Violet, who didn’t remember at all, clicked her tongue.

Jörmungandr, squinting its eyes, also clicked its tongue in response. Shh shh.

“Let’s look around for now… Come here, Jörmungandr!”

With Jörmungandr coiled around her neck, Violet activated the special function of the [Dragon Scale Cloak] to generate claws on her gloves and shoes, easily climbing up the valley.

And the first sight that met Violet’s eyes as she crawled up to the ground was…

“…?!”

The huge corpse of Behemoth, split in half and dead.

And the ‘Sleepless Lake Princess’ standing atop it.

When the ultra-colossal monster, like a huge mountain range, was cut in half and died, a thick red mist had settled in the area due to the blood pouring from its cross-section.

The avatar of nightmares standing aloof in this red mist had her hand stretched out towards the sky, and in the direction her fingertip was pointing…

“Gruk, grrrrruk!”

Leviathan and Kraken were flailing about, floating in the air as if grabbed by the collar, unable to breathe.

Though not as much as Behemoth, Leviathan and Kraken were also ultra-colossal monsters of unbelievable size for single living beings.

However, the ‘Sleepless Lake Princess’ had lifted the two monsters as lightly as if picking up cotton balls with an invisible force.

“…”

And, as the ‘Sleepless Lake Princess’ lightly clenched her hand.

Crunch!

Leviathan’s huge body floating in the air was instantly compressed, then tore apart and burst, spraying blood in all directions.

“This can’t be…”

Violet unknowingly muttered.

Though Violet had faced even Night Bringer on the battlefield, she could tell because of that. The woman before her eyes was on a completely different level.

This was not an enemy that could be defeated by fighting.

There was no chance of victory…!

“…”

As the ‘Sleepless Lake Princess’ lightly shook her clenched hand to the side, the ultra-colossal monster Leviathan, once the master of floods and monsoons, was discarded like trash, transformed into mere compressed meat.

Next, the ‘Sleepless Lake Princess’ turned her gaze to the other captured ultra-colossal monster — the Kraken.

King Poseidon was also caught and flailing atop the Kraken’s head.

“…!”

The moment she confirmed this.

Activating the invisibility magic imbued in the [Dragon Scale Cloak], Violet was already running forward.

‘No, what am I doing?!’

In contrast to her body rushing forward without hesitation, her mind was instantly filled with all sorts of anguish.

‘Why am I playing the hero again when it doesn’t suit me…?!’

No, no.

It’s the opposite now. This is who she is.

If she did nothing while seeing an ally in danger, that would no longer be Violet.

Because she’s already that kind of person…!

‘Really, it’s so ridiculous…’

Swallowing curses inwardly, Violet deployed her illusion field at full power.

‘Oh, look who’s become a saint!’

After using the ‘Wish-Granting Pearl’ before, Violet had broken her limits and become the highest level illusion magic user possible for a human.

With the illusion field enveloping the surroundings used by such a person, plus the highest-level invisibility magic provided by the [Dragon Scale Cloak].

In the best stealth state possible for a human, Violet rushed to save King Poseidon and…

Swish-

The next moment, her eyes met those of the ‘Sleepless Lake Princess’, who had suddenly turned to look this way.

‘Huh?’

Feeling as if all the blood was draining from her body, Violet swallowed with a pale face.

‘This can’t be, this level of stealth could fool even that black dragon for a few seconds…’

Clang-!

The next moment. When Violet blinked once.

The illusion field, the invisibility magic, everything shattered completely and scattered in all directions, leaving only magical particles.

The ‘Sleepless Lake Princess’ pointed her index finger at Violet, who had stopped in the middle of running. Violet sensed it.

This is,

Death.

‘Ah, really. That’s what I get for meddling unnecessarily…’

Violet, resigned to death, squeezed her eyes shut.

‘I stuck my nose where it didn’t belong, so I guess I have no choice but to die. Oh well. Goodbye, world! It was a pretty good life!’

…

But, Violet didn’t die.

‘Huh?’

When Violet opened her eyes slightly in confusion.

She realized that the ‘Sleepless Lake Princess’s’ gaze was directed not at her, but above her head.

Swoooosh!

The ultra-colossal monster in the form of a giant eagle. Ziz.

The Dullahan Legion Commander and Banshee Legion Commander, who had taken over its body, were descending towards the ground, roaring without restraint.

“We are your opponents, Princess!”

“You’d better cover your ears tightly-!”

The Dullahan Legion Commander skillfully gathered the sunlight and solar heat dwelling in Ziz’s body,

Flash-!

And the Banshee Legion Commander transformed that gathered power into sharp waveforms and poured it out.

The ‘Sleepless Lake Princess’ opened her outstretched hand. Then massive darkness gathered before her, forming a square shield.

Whoosh…!

Though it was an attack that poured out all the power remaining in Ziz’s body at once, it couldn’t even scratch the ‘Sleepless Lake Princess’s’ defense.

However.

Guooooo!

In this fleeting moment, not missing that the force binding it had weakened, the Kraken unraveled the bonds of darkness and lunged at the ‘Sleepless Lake Princess’.

Because Violet had stepped forward overcoming her fear, they were able to steal a few seconds from the ‘Sleepless Lake Princess’.

With that few seconds difference, Ziz was able to descend to the ground and pour out an attack imbued with the power of the sun at the ‘Sleepless Lake Princess’.

To block this attack that was elementally opposed to her, the ‘Sleepless Lake Princess’ had to gather all the darkness she could use.

And in that gap, King Poseidon and the Kraken were freed and attempted a final counterattack.

It was a miraculous momentary opening that appeared because everyone staked their lives and attempted the best cooperation possible.

And the moment the tip of the tentacle the Kraken thrust out touched the ‘Sleepless Lake Princess’.

The moment it pierced inside the endless otherworldly darkness enveloping the Princess’s body,

“Guo, oh…?!”

Instantly, the Kraken’s entire body swelled up like a balloon,

Rip-

Boom!

It burst apart in all directions like a balloon touched by a needle tip.

“What…”

Amidst the monster’s bodily fluids and flesh raining down, King Poseidon looked at the ring on his finger with bewildered eyes.

The [Ring of the Kraken] cracked wide open, then the next moment it turned completely to powder and was destroyed.

“What?!”

“What is this-“

Faced with this sight, the Dullahan Legion Commander and Banshee Legion Commander who had taken over Ziz’s body let out bewildered groans.

Swish-

Thunk.

The next moment. The darkness that the ‘Sleepless Lake Princess’ had transformed from a shield to a sword was lodged in Ziz’s chest.

“Huh?”

“Wait, a sec…”

Right after the two monster Legion Commanders’ dying words.

Rip-!

Ziz’s entire body burst apart from where the sword was lodged.

The darkness that had filled its interior poured out like flooding, tearing the monster’s entire body to shreds.

“…”

In the heavy silence that followed the ear-splitting explosion.

Violet blankly raised her eyes to look up at the being before her.

Atop the scattered flesh of monsters, amidst the hellish scene of severed tentacles and bodily fluids, burst feathers raining down.

Having slaughtered all the ultra-colossal monsters that had descended to the mortal world, standing alone and noble…

Connected through the split sky to the gazes of countless Outer Gods.

The avatar of nightmares, the ‘Sleepless Lake Princess’, creakily like a marionette, slowly gripped her sword of darkness anew.

There stood the destruction of this world.
