(Calamity)
Rank: Ninth Disaster
Active Skill
Level: 1
Mana Required: 5,000
Penalty for Use: All stats -15, Level -1
Cooldown: 48 hours
Effects:
A thousand swords engulfed in fierce and blazing flames carrying an additional 2,000% attack power will fall from the sky.
The swords engulfed in flames will shoot out flames with an additional 1,300% attack power and devour an area with a five-meter radius. Around 30% of the thousand swords will explode in fire and tear the enemy with an additional 1,000% attack power four times in a row.
Description: If you can recover the entirety of this power, then it will have the power that can rival the Eight Pillars Eight Disasters.
Growth Requirements: The skill level will increase by one whenever your level increases by thirty. The skills level will also increase by one whenever you receive the protection or kill one of the Eight Pillars. You can also develop and grow the skill if you receive the level of someone as strong or as special as the Eight Pillars.
The skill was just at Level 1, but it was already ridiculously overpowered. Not only that, it could also shoot out flames and devour an entire area within a five-meter radius.
Baaaaaaaaang!
Booooooooom!
Bang, bang, bang, bang, bang!
Keuaaaaaaaaaaack!
A- aaaaaaaaaack!
Even now, the swords engulfed in flames continued to fall upon and devour the Luvien Imperial Army. The enemies that were consumed by the fire received 1,300% damage. The troops that survived the initial attack? They struggled to escape the flames. However, wind blades flew four times in a row and ripped their bodies apart.
Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh, swoosh!
The Luvien Imperial Army collapsed in just a blink of an eye.
[Bastien has been forced to log out!]
[Bastien is one of the Luvien Empires Swords of the Gods!]
[You have gained 333,054,000 EXP!]
[You have gained 664 platinum.]
[You have acquired the Summoners Flute.]
[You have killed Commander Ellen!]
[Commander Ellen is a precious talent that the Luvien Empire cherishes!]
[You have gained 163,000,000 EXP.]
[You have gained 210 platinum.]
[You have killed Knight Koroin.]
[Knight Koroin is a precious talent that the Luvien Empire cherishes!]
[You have gained 64,000,013 EXP.]
[You have gained 31 platinum.]
[You have acquired the Luvien Empires Knights White Sword.]
The dungeon manager could obtain EXP from those who died inside the dungeon. They could also collect the drops that the dead left behind. Of course, following the rules of the dungeon, Minhyuk should also be able to take out a reward worthy of the level of the dungeons mobs whenever they were killed.
However, they were being swept away. The troops of the Great Luvien Empire and their Swords of the Gods died either from being burned by the flames or torn apart by the blades. And in just a blink, the powerful wave of power that Duke Ruffiso sent had been completely offset, disappearing into nothingness.
The only thing that I find regrettable is that Calamity does not distinguish between friend or foe and will kill whatever is in its path.
Because of that, Minhyuk could not concentrate this attack on a specific target. However, Duke Ruffiso could not understand this. He could not return to his senses after receiving the brunt of the thousands of swords. The worst part? There was still a powerful force that tore his entire body apart and forced a groan out of his mouth.
Crackle!
Then, at that moment, Minhyuk walked through the remnants of the flames and swung his sword with both hands as he passed by Ruffiso.
Slash, slash, slash, slash, slash, slash!
The Sword of Carnage, which received the effects of the Dual Swordsmanship Technique, cut up, tore apart, and made blood spurt all over the body of Duke Ruffiso, the Luvien Empires Star.
Keughhhk! Duke Ruffiso groaned as he fell on the blood that spurted out of his body. He struggled to remain standing and supported his body with a sword.
If Brod and Elpis did not inflict such a severe injury on him, then I would have certainly lost this fight. The outcome would have been the same had Conir not become a Sword God and appeared here.
Several things have overlapped and allowed Minhyuk to obtain this victory.
Do you think that you can declare that the Luvien Empire will collapse just because you killed me?!
Duke Ruffiso was fully aware of what kind of empire the Luvien Empire was. They still had two more dukes that were far stronger than him. And Nerva Sephiroth? He was as strong as them. No, perhaps he was even stronger than them.
Kneel and admit the mistakes that your Beyond the Heavens Empire has committed! Kghhk!
When death was close, Duke Ruffiso became an ordinary man out there. He still had something to do.
The secrets of my birth.
Duke Ruffiso wanted to know the truth. Was he truly a child slumbering inside a basket lowered by the angels from the sky into the Luvien Empire? Because of that, the people began to say that Duke Ruffiso was born from the transcendents. He had never met his parents, and he wanted to meet them. Or at least hear news about them.
Thats right. So I can tear them to death!
Frankly speaking, Ruffiso knew that he was just abandoned. He had been an orphan ever since he was a child. As for the angels bringing him down on the ground? That was just him trying to meet the expectations of others.
Ruffiso hated them, the damn bastards that abandoned him. So he could not die yet. He still had to live so he could spit on their faces and tear them apart.
Just a bit more, and I could have found them
He was just about to find the traces of the Transcendentals!
The Beyond the Heavens Empire will never be able to defeat the Luvien Empire!
Perhaps so. Minhyuk looked down at Ruffiso with a cold gaze. However, sitting back and doing nothing would be more foolish. This is us taking that first step.
Duke Ruffisos eyes were wide open, his gaze sharp as he looked at Minhyuk until his final minute.
Swoosh!
But Minhyuk did not show him any mercy. The number of people that Duke Ruffiso had killed was high enough to build a mountain.
Thud
The sound of Duke Ruffisos head rolling on the ground signaled the end of the battle. When Minhyuk looked around, he saw everyone, with Conirs exception, had died.
[Duke Ruffiso has died!]
[This sad news will be delivered to the Luvien Empire!]
[You have killed Duke Ruffiso!]
[You have received the Title: Star Killer!]
[You have gained 2,866,413,000 EXP.]
[You have leveled up.]
[You have leveled up.]
[You have gained 113,310 platinum.]
[You have acquired Something that He was Chasing containing Duke Ruffisos resentment and hatred.]
[You have acquired the Seven-Colored Elixir.]
[...acquired the Stars Armor.]
[You have acquired the Suns Salt.]
The notifications rang constantly in Minhyuks ears. It was immediately followed by the notifications from the Right to Rule a God-Rank Dungeon Once.
[The Episode: Transcendentals Holy Land has been completed.]
[The losses incurred during the operation of the dungeon will now be listed.]
[You have dropped a total of 98,513 platinum.]
[You have lost a total of 6,545,000,001 EXP.]
[You have lost three God-rank Artifacts.]
[You have lost four God-rank skill books.]
[You have lost 42 Legendary rank Artifacts.]
[you have lost 16 Legendary rank skill books.]
[...lost]
[...lost]
The items, EXP and gold, that mobs would drop inside the dungeon would be shouldered by the dungeon manager, who, in this case, was Minhyuk. The notifications alone were enough to break his heart.
[The profits you have gained during the operation of the dungeon will now be listed.]
[After considering the platinum you have dropped, you have gained a total profit of 76,564 platinum.]
[After considering the EXP you have lost, you have gained a total of 55,444,000,010 EXP.]
[You have leveled up.]
[...leveled up]
[You were able to recover two out of the three God-rank Artifacts that you have lost and were able to obtain two more God-rank Artifacts.]
[You were able to recover two of the God-rank skill books obtain three]
[You have recovered all sixteen Legendary rank skill booksobtain 31]
As it turned out, his benefits outweighed the losses. Of course, it was only natural. They were the best of the Luvien Empire. They would drop more special, valuable, and outstanding items than others. Not only that, but they recovered most, if not all, of the items they had lost, too.
Additional notifications rang.
[You have used your right to rule a God-rank dungeon once. The Transcendentals Holy Land will now disappear.]
[The Transcendentals Holy Land has started to crumble and collapse!]
Everyone bore witness when Minhyuk declared war against the Luvien Empire. Surprisingly enough, they could also witness how Minhyuk killed Duke Ruffiso and wiped out the troops sent by the Luvien Empire in the dungeon. They were all curious about what future steps the Beyond the Heavens Empire would take.
Minhyuk was warped out of the dungeon and disappeared from everyones eyes. When he reappeared, he said, Im hungry
***
The Fortress of the Transcendentals Fantasy.
The amazing man, the transcendental man who helped Conir grow into a Sword God, even though he was only a legendary class figure, was drooling himself.
I cant forget it.
He could not forget the ramyeon that the boy cooked for him. He clearly remembered how he slurped the noodles and drank the spicy soup until his nose turned sweaty.
I liked the taste of that ramyeon. A pity I cant get out of this fortress.
Conir was only supposed to reach a certain point. He was just deliberately allowed to enter the Second Gate. Why? Well, the reason was simple.
Its because he had food.
He could not leave this fortress. And it has been thousands of years since they had been here. What did they eat inside this place?
Ugh I dont want to eat any more of those shitty bugs.
The only reason the man survived for that long was because he killed and ate the mobs that lived on the first floor of the fortress. For thousands of years, he ate those mobs so that he almost felt like his taste buds were growing numb and no longer working.
But then, a boy who was good at making ramyeon appeared before him. And that was not all. The boy was studying how to make dishes from Gimbap Heaven and making plenty of related dishes. With every dish that the boy made, his awe and admiration grew more and more.
In the end, he could not endure. The desire that he had been reigning in exploded! At that moment, the shitty bug in front of him exploded.
Im sick of these bugs. Id rather fight against High Sorceress Helenia again than eat them!
Surprisingly enough, the man was one of the main contributors to sealing the Immortal Sorceress Helenia.
I dont want to eat dishes made out of these shitty bugs, the snout of the basilisk, or scorpion brains anymore. Every time I eat those dishes made from the snout of the basilisk, I feel like Im kissing a crocodile!
The worst part? The mobs that they could eat or the parts of the mobs that they could eat were extremely limited. The man who fought against one of the Eight Pillars was fighting against his supposed side dish of the day.
Conir said that his hyung makes very delicious dishes.
Just thinking about an ordinary dish was enough to make the man feel really good and happy.
I want to eat the food that he makes!
Groooowl!
The unidentified transcendental hugged his grumbling stomach as he continued complaining about the dishes he was eating.
***
At the same time.
Minhyuk smiled happily as he looked at Conir. This was because a table filled with dishes from Gimbap Heaven was spread out before him. There were servings of tteokbokki, tuna gimbap, ramyeon with eggs, jjolmyeon, tonkatsu, and even udon in front of him.
He excitedly scooped up a mouthful of the still-steaming ramyeon noodles and put it in his mouth.
Sluuuuuuuuuuurp!
The noodles were chewy and spicy. Conir was truly the best ramyeon chef in the world! Then, Minhyuk scooped up the well-cooked egg that had not dissolved into the soup and put it in his mouth. Delight overcame Minhyuk when the egg touched his taste buds.
Kghhk! Minhyuk moaned in admiration as he grabbed the tuna gimbap off the table. Wow Conir, youre quite good at making gimbap!
Minhyuk was amazed. If one went to Gimbap Heaven, they would see that the tuna inside their gimbap was so little to the point that they wondered if they were eating tuna gimbap or just plain gimbap. But the cheap tuna gimbap that Conir made was filled with tuna!
Conir studied this for five years so that Conir could make it for hyung!
That was right. Conir practiced making those Gimbap Heaven dishes during the five years he spent training in that fortress. Of course, he used up a lot of ingredients to make them. He even went so far as to imagine the process when he ran out of ingredients to use. And these dishes in front of Minhyuk resulted from all that hard work.
A happy and contented smile appeared on Minhyuks face when the rich flavor of tuna entered his mouth when he took a bite of the tuna gimbap. There was also the mild mayonnaise and the distinct taste of the perilla leaves that complemented the various ingredients that were mixed in this roll.
Wow
The flavor was worthy of admiration. Minhyuk took several bites out of the gimbap in quick succession. When he grew thirsty? He would grab the bowl of ramyeon and take a sip of the refreshing and spicy soup.
Sluuuuuuuuuurp!
The spicy soup helped ease the food down his throat.
Kghhk! Minhyuk burst out in admiration.
Without realizing it, Minhyuk had focused almost all of his attention on the tuna gimbap. That just went to show how delicious the tuna gimbap was. Because of that, the tuna gimbap disappeared in a blink.
Munch, munch Ah, what a pity
Then, notifications rang in his ears.
[You have eaten the Tuna Gimbap made by someone who has studied the art of making tuna gimbap for five years!]
[Your STR has increased by 0.7%!]
Lucky?
It was an incredibly amazing tuna gimbap.
