Chapter 1122

Chapter 1122

Following the Supreme Sovereign’s Spatial Switch, all the beings running and charging at Minhyuk and Rundalk from behind appeared before them to block their path. The worst part was the beings with infinite HP and MP and levels at Level 940 among them.

However, in this chaotic Pandemonium, Minhyuk raised the level of his Heavenly Sword to the Supreme.

[Heavenly Sword’s level has exceeded Level 20.]

[Heavenly Sword possesses the Supreme power.]

[No other Supreme power can be displayed or exerted in front of the one who unleashes the Supreme power.]

The notifications rang in his ears. The effects of Heavenly Sword were originally like this:

(Heavenly Sword)

Active Skill

Type of Swordsmanship: Food God’s Swordsmanship

Mana Required: 8,500

Cooldown: 30 minutes

Effects:

•Hundreds of swords with ego will fall from the sky like a heavy downpour.

•The Heavenly Sword, releasing swords with their egos, will not stop attacking until all those recognized as enemies have been eradicated.

•Movement speed will also increase by 400% during the skill duration. The skill duration is four minutes.

•It will deal an additional 700% damage.

Heavenly Sword was the evolved version of Sword of Tempest after combining it with Bender’s Heaven Destroyer.

[You can now use the Supreme Heavenly Sword.]

[A hundred thousand swords with ego will fall from the sky like a heavy downpour.]

[The attack will not stop until all enemies have been slaughtered.]

[The skill duration is two minutes.]

[The Heavenly Sword’s movement speed will increase by 800%.]

[Heavenly Sword will have a 6,000% additional attack power.]

Shocking. That was the only word that seemed to suit this power.

Minhyuk released a trembling breath. He had reached the Supreme power, albeit only temporarily. This was a power that Minhyuk believed he would come to someday. However, it could take him a year, three years, five years, or even more.

Swoosh–!

A crack opened in the beautiful universe above them. And in that beautifully open universe, tens of thousands of swords covered with bright and blinding light began to shoot out. This power fell upon the Supreme Monarchs preparing to attack Minhyuk and Rundalk. The first attack pierced through the first Supreme Monarch.

Stab–

“Keuhaaaaaaaaack!”

The scream signaled a constant downpour of the swords of the Supreme Heavenly Sword upon the Supreme Monarchs and continued to stab straight through them. The most shocking part? The Heavenly Sword would only stop the attack once all the targets died.

The swords that had already pierced through them once flew up and attacked them once again. Just like that, the Supreme Monarchs began to turn into ashes that disappeared with the wind one after another.

Meanwhile, Minhyuk and Rundalk charged forward and ran as fast as they could. While running, notifications continued to ring in Minhyuk’s ears.

[You have obtained an Asteroid Fragment.]

[You have obtained an Asteroid Fragment.]

[You have obtained an Asteroid Fragment.]

The Pandemonium’s Battlefield had given Minhyuk an infinitely lower amount of Asteroid Fragments than when he first entered Pandemonium and hunted a Supreme Monarch. He had to hunt five of them before he could even obtain one. But now? Tens of thousands of Supreme Monarchs were being wiped out. So, that meant he could rack up quite a few of them.

[The Supreme Skill has temporarily reduced the amount of EXP you can acquire to 1/20th of the original.]

[You have leveled up.]

[You have leveled up.]

[You have leveled up.]

Minhyuk had only leveled up three times.

‘I was able to level up quite a few times even though I have only hunted one Supreme Monarch in the past.’

Of course, there was something different from the situation back then. The Supreme Monarch was recognized as a “boss” class monster back then. Because of that, the amount of EXP he acquired from successfully hunting one was ridiculously high. But now? The Supreme Monarch was not considered a boss. On top of that, the EXP that he could acquire had decreased significantly because of the use of the Supreme Skill.

Although the situations were different, both had given Minhyuk ridiculous amounts of EXP.

[You have five seconds left to leave the Pandemonium’s Battlefield.]

[There are 120 meters left.]

Minhyuk and Rundalk continued to run like crazy until they caught sight of a transparent boundary that separated Pandemonium’s Battlefield and the Final Meteor.

[You have two seconds left to leave the Pandemonium’s Battlefield.]

[There are 10 meters left.]

The two of them successfully crossed the line with only one second left at the time. When they crossed the boundary, Rundalk finally caught sight of the Final Meteor. It was where Bellamy, the daughter he had missed so much, was lying asleep, spraying light like a small star in the universe. Rundalk stretched his hand out toward Bellamy.

[Pandemonium’s Prison.]

A black energy surged out from below Rundalk and engulfed him. Rundalk’s breathing was restricted. He felt like he had been submerged in water.

[Anyone trapped within the Pandemonium’s Prison will die in three minutes.]

[Anyone trapped within the Pandemonium’s Prison cannot escape unless the Supreme Sovereign hands over the “key” or has been killed.]

[Anyone trapped within the Pandemonium’s Prison will continue to lose strength and control over their body the longer they stay there.]

[Anyone trapped within the Pandemonium’s Prison for a long time will suffer from some debuff.]

“Ugh– Ughhhh!” Rundalk struggled from the black energy that engulfed him.

If Rundalk were in his ordinary state, he would have been able to break through this prison no matter what. Unfortunately, Rundalk had already exhausted most of his power and was physically tired.

At that moment, the space in the universe opened in front of them. Then, a man wearing black armor, a horned helmet, and a red cape on his shoulders appeared. He looked like one of the Supreme Monarchs but was far more extraordinary than them.

[The Supreme Sovereign has appeared!]

[The Supreme Sovereign is tasked to protect the Final Meteor!]

[Supreme Sovereign. Level 1,313]

Minhyuk could not help but groan when he saw the chilling level of their next opponent.

‘I either have to take away the key or kill the Supreme Sovereign as quickly as possible.’

Otherwise, Rundalk would die.

Meanwhile, the Supreme Sovereign, releasing his overwhelming force, looked at Minhyuk viciously through the gaps in his helmet. He thought, ‘I can play with you here as much as I want.’

Ruba still could not forget the shame that he suffered on that day. How dare the Pillar of Gourmands throw himself at the door of the Pillar Evaluators! He would give everything back to him and completely trample over him. Besides, he would not know who he was anyway.

Ruba turned to look at Rundalk. Then, he said, “Sinner! Do not think of rebelling and pay the price for your sins...”

“Huh? Aren’t you the Captain Evaluator?”

“...?” The Supreme Sovereign stopped. Then, his body trembled. “Nonsense! I am the Supreme Sovereign...”

“Oh, I got it right,” Minhyuk said.

“...?”

Minhyuk thought that the voice sounded very familiar. So, he made a guess. And he confirmed his guess when he saw the man’s eyes grow still with his eyes growing wide under his helmet.

He guessed that the Supreme Sovereign was Captain Evaluator Ruba for quite a few reasons. In the first place, Chaos bestowed punishment upon Rundalk. Considering that fact and the very familiar voice, there was only one answer as to who the Supreme Sovereign was.

The Supreme Sovereign’s mouth opened and shut a few times. However, unable to come up with any words to refute, he just launched an attack immediately.

“Pandemonium Sword.”

Shwaaaaaaa–

The sword in the hand of the Supreme Sovereign stretched out and slashed Minhyuk.

“Keuhaaaack!” Minhyuk screamed, his body suffering from the shocking and overwhelming damage.

[Your HP has dropped below 54%.]

It was only just one skill, yet his HP dropped significantly. Minhyuk groaned as he used Absolute Defense. With the Absolute Defense activated, he unleashed an onslaught of attacks upon the Supreme Sovereign.

Just like Rundalk, Minhyuk had also exhausted most of his powers.

[You have called upon the Consumable Asteroid.]

[You have exchanged for the Skill Cooldown Reset.]

[You have used 100 Asteroid Fragments.]

The cooldown on all of Minhyuk’s skills was reset.

[You have exchanged for the 100% HP and MP Recovery.]

[You have used 50 Asteroid Fragments.]

Minhyuk restored everything.

At that moment, the Supreme Sovereign summoned hundreds of meteorites. Hundreds of meteorites appeared around him and immediately shot toward the target his finger was pointing at.

“Meteorite Bombardment.”

Bang, bang, bang–!

The speed at which the meteorites were shooting toward Minhyuk doubled, making them crash into him faster.

Seeing this, Minhyuk hurriedly used Absolute Defense. At the same time, he summoned the Ego Chain Sickle above him. He also summoned Viel’s Puppet Doll while he equipped the Black Dragon Armor.

Using Like the Wind, Minhyuk broke through the siege of meteorites. When another meteorite was about to hit Minhyuk, Viel’s Puppet Doll struck him.

Swoosh–!

The Ego Chain Sickle also wrapped its chain around Minhyuk’s wrist and dragged him out of the range of the meteorites, pulling him with all its might.

“Overpower.”

The Supreme Sovereign fell into an absolute stunned state. Minhyuk immediately pulled out another sword and used the Dual Swordsmanship Technique while activating Annihilator’s Sword to cut down the stunned Supreme Sovereign.

Stab– Stab, stab–!

Dozens of attacks landed upon the Supreme Sovereign. They all cut and stabbed all over his body. When Minhyuk saw the Supreme Sovereign shake and convulse, he felt like he had seen their possibility of winning.

“Keuhaaaaaaack!!!” The Supreme Sovereign shrieked. Then, a smile appeared on his face. “Keuhahahahaha!”

The shriek turned into deranged laughter as the Supreme Sovereign chased after Minhyuk, who was being lifted upward by the Ego Chain Sickle, and cut him a dozen times with his sword.

[Your HP has dropped below 40%.]

[Your HP has dropped below 25%.]

Minhyuk seemed to have lost his vision from the onslaught of attacks and the overwhelming damage inflicted upon him. The worst part? The Supreme Sovereign was targeting his arms and legs.

[Your movements have been restricted.]

Minhyuk once again exchanged an HP and MP Recovery for 50 Asteroid Fragments to recover his flailing arms and legs.

‘This is the last.’

Most items he could exchange with Asteroid Fragments were limited in quantity. For HP and MP Recovery, he could only exchange and use it twice.

Minhyuk, who had recovered from all his injuries, poured all his skills into the Supreme Sovereign. Even so, the Supreme Sovereign did not receive much damage. Most of the attacks that Minhyuk had released were a ‘miss.’ This was all thanks to the Supreme Sovereign’s passive skill.

Unlike the Supreme Monarchs, the Supreme Sovereign did not have an infinite HP and MP. In exchange for the loss of the endless status, his HP, MP, and even his damage were more than doubled that of the Supreme Monarchs. There were also attack misses whenever a weaker opponent attacked him.

Out of ten of Minhyuk’s attacks, only one or two would succeed.

Bang–!

The Supreme Sovereign slammed Minhyuk’s body on the ground and tied him up with chains. Just like that, Minhyuk was rendered immobile, with his wrists, ankles, and neck shackled to the ground.

The Supreme Sovereign was pleased with this situation. Those who should be punished should receive more significant punishment. And those who humiliated him should receive greater humiliation and despair.

Minhyuk tried to break the shackles that bound him but could not make them budge. Meanwhile, Rundalk, who was trapped in the Pandemonium’s Prison, was slowly dying from suffocation.

“Ughh...!”

The Supreme Sovereign cackled at Rundalk’s plight. He said, “I’ll show you some mercy. I should at least let you say goodbye to your daughter once before I send you to your final path.”

The Supreme Sovereign landed lightly on the Final Meteor. Then, he stretched out a thick finger and touched the sleeping Bellamy. The light that was covering Bellamy’s body slowly faded away. And after a very long time, the little girl opened her eyes.

“Haaaaaaaa.” Bellamy yawned, her arms stretching to warm up her body, which had been slumbering for a long time.

Rundalk’s eyes grew wide when he saw that. He missed his little girl so dearly. He had been trying to see her for 5,000 years. Alas, even though he could see her now, the situation was terrible.

The Supreme Sovereign, Captain Evaluator Ruba, seemed trashier and cruder than Minhyuk had imagined.

“Well then, Bellamy. Shall we go and say hello to your dying father?”

“Da... ddy?” The stretching Bellamy looked around in confusion until she made eye contact with Rundalk.

A deep and gut-wrenching sadness engulfed Rundalk. His greed made him kill the evaluators and even gave him the audacity to try and rebel against Chaos, who kept the balance of the world. Drunk on his power, he abandoned this little girl who had been waiting for him in front of their house for a very long time. Rundalk had paid no heed to the girl who wiped her tears when eating alone and going to bed.

Rundalk knew that he should not be forgiven, but he believed he had paid more than enough for his crime.

Swoosh–

The black energy dug deeper and wrapped itself tightly around Rundalk’s throat.

[You will die in the Pandemonium’s Prison in one minute and thirty seconds.]

Rundalk’s consciousness started to falter.

“Daddy!”

He, who was about to slip into his eternal rest, heard the cries of his little girl.

“You... have crossed the line.”

At that moment, Minhyuk’s voice rang in his ears. Despite his blurred and faltering consciousness, Rundalk turned his head and followed the voice.

“Hello, Bellamy. I’m your dad’s friend.”

Bellamy turned to look at Minhyuk.

Minhyuk was still shackled tightly by the chains. The truth was, he was also very greedy. After all, he thought it would be a waste to use those things now. However, when presented with this scene, he immediately discarded his greed.

“Bellamy, you’re a good girl who listens to adults, right?”

The crying girl nodded.

At that moment, Minhyuk checked the remaining Asteroid Fragments that he possessed.

[Asteroid Fragments in possession: 20,403.]

The number of fragments that he had accumulated could be said to be astronomical. This amount was enough for Minhyuk to buy something extremely valuable. After Minhyuk had collected over 5,000 fragments, several slots had been released to him. Among them, exceptional items, like the Supreme Skill, were also available to him. There was one that stood out in particular.

[All Supreme Asteroids.]

[You have exchanged for the All Supreme Asteroids.]

[You have used 20,000 Asteroid Fragments.]

A blinding light flashed in the eyes of everyone present. When the light finally faded, nine asteroids could be seen floating and revolving around Minhyuk.

“Bellamy.” Minhyuk smiled faintly and said, “Close your eyes.”
