Turns Out To Be a Genius Duelist

Chapter 43

Chapter 43 6th Floor Plaza b 2}

He didn’t know since the Hydra was so big, but a small mark hovered over their heads when he encountered evil. It was a sword-shaped sign as if to say, ‘Please punish me.’

Slash!

Yoon-seok’s sword flashed, yet the challengers surrounding him didn’t even realize that his sword had moved. All they could see was the outcome as the snobbish man in front of Yoon-seok lost his arm.

Pslekkkkk!

A fountain of blood jettisoned out of the wound. It was the start signal. The other challengers rushed toward Yoon-seok in unison like a herd of rabbits.

Whirl!

SlashhhhhhI!

Yoon-seok swung his sword in the air once he gathered energy in the blade. A crescent of energy soared out, splitting the bodies of several challengers in half. The first representative who had his arm cut off came to his senses and shouted at the woman with the cane.

“You bitch! What are you doing? Release the power of silence now!”

“…Yes, yes!”

The spider-web-like magic was retrieved, and the area was once again allowed to use magic. Thus, the rabbits became stronger. Even so, it didn’t make any difference.

“Fire Lance!”

“Arrows of Punishment!”

“Lock Key!”

Magic, Skills, Curses. Now free to use their powers, the challengers fired off all kinds of attacks. Yet none of them threatened him at all. The Sun Sword offered the effect of ignoring magic below the owner’s magic stats, nullifying their powers. None of them were of a rank higher than Yoon-seok.

Arrows? He could just bat them to the side. Perhaps because of the difference in magic levels, the curse disappeared in a few seconds due to Bloodseeker’s Energy.

“You, you crazy monster…!”

This was a one versus many battle, but he was the one way ahead. No, not a battle; this was a slaughter. As Yoon-seok began to spray his energy out, the plaza was quickly colored in blood. Full of blood and littered with severed limbs on the ground.

‘Huh, so weak?’

No matter how far behind they were, the deviation was too extreme, considering they were also challengers who’d reached the sixth floor.

Adventures, Explorations, Missions…….compared to Duels, it was said that the level of difficulty was very easy. Did it mean that the rewards were about that much as well? Yoon-seok turned his head to the voice coming from the side.

“D-Dimension Movement: Pre…!”

A man tried to escape by invoking the command. Too bad the man didn’t know he had b Non-verbal Magic}. As soon as he heard the sound, Yoon-seok swung his sword first, and the man’s chanting failed as his head dropped.

“S-save me…!”

Maybe because she saw what happened to the man in front of her, the only survivor now begged for her life. She was the woman who received orders to spread the curse of silence. There was no sign of evil over the woman’s head.

It was kind of funny. The woman whose powers must have contributed greatly to enslaving duel challengers wasn’t evil.

“T-this place was crazy! There’s nothing I can do on my own! Wouldn’t you do the same?”

That was even worse. Even if you don’t enjoy watching them suffer, it still means that you’ve participated in it for your gain.

“I couldn’t help it! I mean it!”

Thump-thump.

As Yoon-seok approached very slowly, the woman shouted that it was unfair. Maybe she was trying to gain his sympathy, even going as far as to bite and hold onto him…

Yoon-seok couldn’t relate to the situation at all.

“People like you won’t understand! I-I’m not as strong as you are.….”

Shluk!

Yoon-seok cut through the woman’s arm. He was annoyed that she tried to persuade him with the same logic they likely used on her. He approached her as she moaned in agony.

“Who has the power to stop Dimensional Movements?”

Was it because Yoon-seok’s eyes were too fierce? Despite her suffering, the woman managed to raise her other arm and pointed in the direction of the man who was killed while trying to escape.

He tried to escape alone by releasing his powers since the initial attempt didn’t work out. Of course, he failed.

“I heard it was a union. How many people are in it?”

“About a thousand…”

It was true according to the Eyes of Truth. Thinking he would spare her if she answered well, the woman blabbed on.

“Most of them will be resting in residential areas. But there will be a standby replacement team coming soon, so you have to get out now….”

The woman said so as if she represented Yoon-seok. It was disgusting. Just a second ago, she was still trying to enslave him, and now she was worried? She probably didn’t say it out of real concern. She just hoped that Yoon-seok would return to the waiting room.

Yoon-seok smirked.

“So they’re coming on their own accord, I’m glad.”

“…?”

Yoon-seok waited in the plaza with the woman. A little while later, dozens of people arrived. Their faces paled with surprise after noticing the massacre. They were slaughtered within seconds by Yoon-seok, who’d fired off his attacks from afar. Later, the woman led Yoon-seok to the residential area. To be exact, it was the building holding the enslaved duelers.

“H-here we are…”

She guided him as she was told, but she looked at him as if asking if he would do it. They deserved it. Yoon-seok sensed at least three hundred people were being held inside the building.

Instead of answering, Yoon-seok burst open the door. But no one in the building paid them any mind. It was all filled with madness.

“Hahaha, you slutty bitch, shake it more! Huh?”

“Fight! Kill! Kill him!”

“What the fuck? Are you from the duel? After all, you’re doing this in front of me!”

Was this what it felt like to embody corruption? The building was full of demons, to the point where it was impossible to find those who weren’t marked as evil.

Yoon-seok led the woman into the building. Then a few men who saw them came up with mean smiles.

“I’ve never seen you before. Are you new?”

“Hehe! Look at this guy being all frozen?”

“That’s good. The kids who are in the dumping ground are all dead, so now we can put him in! Hey! It’s okay, right? You guys fucking love duels, don’t you?”

They giggled at Yoon-seok, apparently thinking he was a newbie who came after signing the contract. If he didn’t refuse his duties, they wouldn’t treat him unfairly? He knew it was bullshit as soon as he’d heard it, but he didn’t know that those who signed the contract were being treated like this.

“Hey, take off your pants first. I think the stuff that’s been sticking out looks pretty hard. Let’s have a look.”

Yoon-seok looked at the man who tapped his shoulder without saying a word. Then the man tilted his head as if it were strange. If he signed the contract, he wouldn’t be able to refuse him.

“Trash…”

There was no such thing as a noble belief in saving the suffering to Yoon-seok. In addition, they were challengers, which also meant they were competitors. Saving them would only increase the number of potential competitors. So maybe it was wise to go back to the waiting room and head to the next floor. But…

Even if it were wrong, this was far beyond what he could allow. There was too much trash here. He had to clean it up quickly. The more garbage there was, the faster it increased.

“What? What did you say…?”

The man asked again as if he’d heard something wrong, but Yoon-seok didn’t answer. Instead, he just activated one of the powers purchased from Elle.

Lady’s Commandment. Yoon-seok declared the entire building as a domain of the law by consuming his Bloodseeker’s energy. There was only one whole territory in the realm.

?Lady’s Commandment disables all beings within the realm from conducting Dimensional Movements.?

Yoon-seok had no intention of letting anyone walk out alive.

“What?”

“Did you see that?”

“Who is it?! What kind of sick joke is this!”

The challengers, immersed in pleasure, looked around after reading the message presented to them. Yoon-seok slowly moved to stand in the center of the building.

“Executioner of Steel.”

A skill that increased physical resistance by 50% by setting a 50-meter radius as an execution area. Perhaps due to the skill’s effect, a huge steel sword dropped from the sky and pierced through the ground.

Bang!

All the attention was focused on Yoon-seok now.

“What? Who the fuck is he?”

“Drag him down!”

Someone pointed at Yoon-seok. Some people with quick judgment went for their weapons first.

Yoon-seok raised his power to the limit, crimson energy radiating around him. That alone was enough. To make them and Yoon-seok himself realize that he was here to punish them.

Sshhluck!

A blood storm arose, showing no discrimination against the enemy. Some of them might be duel challengers who were treated as slaves. But he didn’t care. If there were a judgment mark floating above their head, Yoon-seok would shatter them.

?A hundred evils have been judged.?

?When dealing with evil, strength increases by one.?

The more evil he judged, the greater his abilities increased, and the effect of the Sun Sword was permanently upgraded. As the chaos grew, the challengers from upstairs also took out their weapons and rushed down the first floor where Yoon-seok was located.

It didn’t make a difference if the trash he had to clean up was coming toward him.

“R-run!”

“Hurry up and call Mr. Carta…!”

The trash here weren’t as skilled as they were wicked. As they slowly fell behind, it was safe to say that none could even compare to challengers like the Heavenly Devil and King of Steel. However, they oppressed those in a weaker position on such a subject than themselves and enjoyed their suffering.

Yoon-seok had never been able to understand these people. He had to endure it before because he was powerless. But now, he had the power to punish them for their wrongdoings. If anyone were to ask if he had to do this, Yoon-seok would answer like this.

‘Is there any reason not to?’

They believed in their petty power and violated the weak. Yoon-seok wasn’t much different from them either. He had power. So he’d have to return the favor as part of the strong.

“…”

Every time an enemy was slaughtered, something similar to pleasure rose inside him. Yoon-seok realized that the corners of his mouth had turned faintly upward by now. Was this also an effect of the Bloodseeker’s Energy? Perhaps he looked more like a monster than them. But…

It wasn’t so bad. Should he say that it felt like he took off a shirt that didn’t fit him and exchanged it for something that did perfectly?

And yet, he could still feel how much he’d suffered in the past.

“S-save me!”

“Help! Somebody please…!”

“You devil bastard!”

Yoon-seok once believed in karma. Kang Hyung-woo, Lee Chang-hoon, and the many others who turned a blind eye on him…

He believed that one day they would be punished by heaven. But, the sky was just the sky. No one punished them on behalf of Yoon-seok until he had the power to do so himself.

However, Yoon-seok didn’t resent the sky. If heaven couldn’t punish them…

Then he would have to do it on his own.
