The countless rays of light out of the Orichalcum Sword went through the devil's body.
"Ughhhhhh!"
The devil let out a painful scream and fell over like a pole.
As soon as the devil fell, Ho Sung Lee and Bowl pounced like hungry lions.
Ho Sung Lee swung his sword on the almost dead devil and Bowl drowned it with his dark magic.
Meanwhile, Min Sung frowned at the devil.
Not all devils were the same.
They had different ranks.
The devils that they defeated on the 1st and 2nd floors were only beginner levels.
And aside from the fact that the devil on the 2nd floor was a little more aggressive, there wasn't much a difference between the two.
The devils that he last faced off against before leaving the demonic realm was not at this level.
Min Sung looked up at the ceiling.
If he went up, would he be able to see the devil from before?
He thought for a while and then saw Ho Sung Lee and Bowl.
"Huff! Huff! Huff! Why isn't he dying?"
Ho Sung Lee panted as he spoke while Bowl looked down at the devil with no more energy to spare.
"Move."
In response, Ho Sung Lee and Bowl moved aside.
The devil wasn't dying, but its body was being regenerated.
Min Sung looked down at the devil and then pulled out his Orichalcum Sword.
Slashhhhhh!
Blood spilled over the floor and the devil closed his eyes.
He was on the verge of death.
"Deal with it, " Min Sung ordered.
Ho Sung Lee and Bowl began attacking in response.
Ho Sung Lee's sword showed red and blue lights that fell upon the devil like fireworks.
Bowl drowned it with dark magic.
However, Min Sung simply sighed to the sight.
The devil didn't die and simply remained in the weak state right before death.
After around 10 minutes, Bowl's sword filled the devil's body with darkness.
Boom!
[Random damage explosion]
[Bowl has defeated the devil]
"Huff! Huff! Huff! Huff! Ugh!"
Ho Sung Lee fell over and panted.
Bowl also used up all of his energy and fell onto the floor.
But at that moment.
Boom!
A gold light shined from Bowl's body.
***
[Lich doll 'Bowl' will initialize in level, nickname, and skill. ]
[Lich doll 'Bowl' has advanced in attack and magic power. ]
[Lich doll 'Bowl' has advanced in reincarnation ability. ]
[Additional special skill obtained. ]
Ho Sung Lee looked at Bowl with his jaw dropped to the floor.
Bowl's level initialized and disappeared.
That meant that Bowl was now a miscellaneous type.
'I-I'm so jealous!'
Ho Sung Lee felt his insides tangled up.
He was already high in level, and now he was a miscellaneous type...
"Snicker!"
At the same time, Bowl regained all of his magic. Bowl, who was just dead on the floor, sprung up and started dancing.
While looking at Bowl radiate with gold light and unbelievable confidence, Ho Sung Lee felt a sense of deprivation.
'Was I unable to damage the devil?'
'Damn it!'
Ho Sung Lee pulled out his hair.
While Ho Sung Lee beat himself up, Min Sung kicked him in the butt.
In response, Ho Sung Lee looked up at Min Sung with a squid-like face.
"Eat this."
He threw him an item.
Ho Sung Lee accepted the item from Min Sung and looked down at it.
[The Blood of a Devil]
Level: God
Upon ingestion, a skill of a devil could be obtained.
Something suddenly began forming along with a nasty smell.
"Oh my god! God level?"
The level of the item was very high.
It was at the god level.
God. God. God.
An item containing the power of a god!
He felt like his heart was going to explode.
I just have to eat it, right?
Ho Sung Lee opened his mouth wide and chewed the Devil Blood given to him by Min Sung.
"Ugh... !"
The foul stench of the blood irritated his nose.
He wanted to spit it back out, but he swallowed it by plugging his nose and holding his breath.
Gulp!
As soon as he swallowed the Devil's Blood.
Bang!
[Player Ho Sung Lee's evolution will begin. ]
Ho Sung Lee began radiating with gold light.
[Player Ho Sung Lee has obtained the skill, Berserker. In the case of suffering magic damage, he will evolve into Berserker. ]
That meant he would get stronger the more he got hit.
But it was only temporary.
Ho Sung Lee was unable to hide his dissatisfaction.
'Fuck my life. Why this of all things... ?'
'Sigh... I'm so unlucky. '
Ho Sung Lee looked at Bowl, who was shining with gold light, and smacked his lips.
'Is this what he would look like in battle?'
A gold skull bowl.
'That's so cool... '
On the other hand, he was a berserker.
There was quite a contrast, but he should be thankful.
But he couldn't help but feel jealous.
While Ho Sung Lee looked at Bowl with envy, Min Sung focused on something else.
After killing the devil, the stairs to the 3rd floor opened, but Min Sung didn't go up and just stared at it with his hands on his hips.
Ho Sung Lee stood beside Min Sung.
"Sir, aren't you going to go... ?"
Grumble
Ho Sung Lee stopped once he heard Min Sung's belly.
He then nodded.
"Let's go."
Min Sung also nodded and followed him.
***
As soon as they exited the tower, Min Sung pulled in the boat.
As a result, the boat defied gravity and flew right in.
Thanks to that, Min Sung and Ho Sung Lee were able to get on the boat safely.
Ho Sung Lee looked at both the boat and Min Sung in fascination.
"Start the engine."
He started the boat.
Min Sung and Ho Sung Lee's boat took off to land.
Rumble, boom, boom!
The thunder roared and the waves were high, but Min Sung's surroundings were serene.
"Ho Sung."
"Yes, Sir."
"You swim back."
"Pardon?"
Min Sung kicked Ho Sung Lee on his back.
"Ugh!"
Splash!
"Pfft! W-why, Sir?"
"When are you going to hold up your end?"
Min Sung looked at Ho Sung pathetically and took off in the boat.
***
While Ho Sung Lee swam with all his might, Min Sung continued to walk through the eyes of the hunters at the assembly.
And then he sat on a rock and waited for Ho Sung Lee.
He intended to go and have a meal once he arrived.
He had been asleep for a while, and after that, he used his energy to kill the devils.
Hurry.
Min Sung sent over his voice.
A message.
Min Sung's voice rang in Ho Sung Lee's head while he swam through the ocean.
***
As soon as he heard Min Sung's message, he felt enraged.
He clenched his teeth and swam harder.
"Huff! Huff! That son! Of! A! Bitch!"
Ho Sung Lee swam at high speed while cursing.
But on the other hand...
He felt impressed by Min Sung Kang even while swimming.
'How did he control that boat with Aura?'
'Is he even human?'
"Pfft! Pfft!"
Strangely, the more tired he got, the more strength he felt to keep going.
'Is this a trait of Berserker?'
'How fascinating. '
Whenever Ho Sung Lee grew tired, he felt a force bringing him back up.
And as soon as he got out of the ocean, he ran over to Min Sung.
"I'm here, Sir. Huff! Huff!"
"What do you recommend?"
Ho Sung Lee was squeezing out the water in his hair as he responded.
"Oh, food? Are you craving anything in particular?"
Min Sung looked up at the cloudy sky and went deep into thought.
He then made a decision and answered Ho Sung Lee.
"Korean food."
When Min Sung picked Korean food, Ho Sung Lee nodded.
"Then let's take the Warp Gate back to Korea. It's hard to find a restaurant that's open in Manhattan because of the dangerous zones."
"What's the menu?"
"Raw fish Bibimbap. One meal will fill you right up. Since there's also the stone pot raw fish Bibimbap, you can pick what you'd like."
Ho Sung Lee took out his phone.
All the phones nowadays were completely waterproof.
Despite having to swim across the ocean, his phone was still functional.
"I'll send you the address. Since the Warp Gate is in Seoul, shall I look for a place close by?"
"Sure."
"Okay."
Ho Sung Lee found a popular restaurant like a machine and sent the address to Min Sung's phone.
When Min Sung was asleep, Ho Sung Lee worked hard to search up all the popular restaurants.
"I sent you the address. I'll escort you to the Warp Gate and wait for you there."
"Let's go."
Min Sung got up from the rock.
"Min Sung!"
At that moment, Ji Yoo Kim ran over, screaming his name.
"You're back."
She looked up at Min Sung and smiled.
She truly looked delighted that Min Sung was awake.
Ji Yoo Kim's face from close up looked almost like a work of art.
The problem was that Min Sung only looked at women as if they were art and nothing more.
"I'm going to eat and then go back in there. So make sure nothing happens until then."
"The lights of the 3rd floor turned on. Did you actually get up there?"
"Yeah."
Min Sung gave her a short answer and headed out with Ho Sung Lee.
Ji Yoo Kim walked alongside Min Sung and looked right at him.
"Let's go together. I have a lot to tell you."
Min Sung ignored her as he walked toward the car.
***
Ho Sung Lee got in the driver's seat while Min Sung sat in the back.
As for Ji Yoo Kim, she sat beside Min Sung.
Min Sung looked out the window while Kim Ji Yoo's eyes stayed fixed on Min Sung.
Min Sung frowned and looked at Ji Yoo Kim.
In response to his glare, she smiled like an angel.
It was the smile of an innocent child.
"What?"
"Nothing."
In response, Min Sung shook his head. He crossed his arms and closed his eyes.
