Callauhel had never felt such anger in his life.
He had revived Diablo and tried to run away. Although running away was the biggest stain that he would ever have in this life, he still did it. He planned to kill everyone with the revived Diablo. But right now, Diablo couldn’t kill them since they were hidden behind a barrier. So instead of targeting them, he targeted Callauhel himself.
Not long after, Sly Devil Diablo began his attacks on Callauhel.
“Damn! Shit! Crap!”
Curses constantly spewed out from his mouth as a fierce battle between him and Sly Devil Diablo began in earnest.
***
They thought that Sly Devil Diablo would brutally trample on Callauhel. But as if true to his famed strength, Callauhel was able to hold on and not lose easily.
“Chew, chew, chew.”
Minhyuk watched their fight while eating some caramel popcorn.
‘Diablo’s definitely a cut above the rest. But……’
Callauhel’s artifacts were helping him hold out. His artifacts could exert special abilities that were beyond common sense. He had artifacts that could help him completely defend against anything and even artifacts that could help him recover some of his HP whenever an attack was successful. There seemed to be a lot of artifacts that could help him even without the use of potions.
“Minhyuk-nim, we’re in trouble. Given the situation, I don’t think we’ll be safe either once the barrier is released.”
Even with Callauhel’s outstanding artifacts, he was only able to hold out and not come out on top. He was still struggling not to die despite his artifacts’ special abilities. While he desperately held on, Callauhel was most definitely hoping that their ‘Barrier’ would vanish.
“Ali-nim, how long does your barrier have left before it gets released?”
“There’s still 5 minutes left.”
Minhyuk shook his head. He was sure that Callauhel would be able to hold out for five more minutes. He needed a trick to kill Callauhel and hunt Diablo at the same time.
“Ah……!”
That was the moment when Minhyuk came up with another trick.
***
Keuhaaaack―
[Sly Devil’s Wrath]
[Powerful mana will turn into blades and press down onto his enemies.]
Black currents cut through the air as they rained down on Callauhel’s body. When blood bursted out of his body, the Blood engraved on his fan sucked the blood back into Callauhel’s body. Thanks to his fan, Callauhel’s wounds were slowly recovering. This was a special ability that allowed him to recover 60% of the damage that he had received.
‘Crazy……!’
Callauhel felt like he was going crazy. However, he realized that the gap between him and the demon Diablo was not that big. But even though the gap was not that big, it was still something that was impossible for him to overcome right now.
Then…
“Hell fire!”
“Splitting Sword!”
A huge hellfire appeared and engulfed Diablo while two crescent sword lights flew straight towards his body. And it did not stop there. A huge tempest of light was fired from a huge white wolf that rained down on Diablo’s body. Black Dragon even used the new skill that he had gained from transferring to his new class, Dragon Monarch.
[Dragons’ War]
[The four dragons will send a strong breath towards a single being.]
The four dragon heads appeared on each side of Diablo as they fired their breath in unison.
Kuhaaaaaaaack―
Four streams of breath engulfed Diablo!
Diablo couldn’t help but stagger after receiving an influx of attacks. Beings that were revived via Callauhel’s Monarch’s Sacrifice would receive an initial penalty and have all of their skills and abilities decreased by 15%. But even though Diablo had received such a penalty, he was still overwhelming in terms of strength.
However, Minhyuk and his group suddenly began to attack Diablo.
“I’ll help you, Callauhel!”
“…Crazy!”
Callauhel’s face distorted in anger.
Even though he could not understand their actions, they still continued attacking Diablo. After receiving all of their attacks, Diablo’s body was now littered with wounds. However, he was still in great shape and could easily attack them.
But when Diablo tried to attack them, all of them ran back to the barrier.
“What the hell are you trying to do?!!!”
Callauhel gritted his teeth in anger. Then, Minhyuk spoke.
“Come to think of it, you… didn’t you say that you’re from Rothschild? I thought I shouldn’t be hostile to you.”
Callauhel’s eyes shook after hearing his words.
‘That doesn’t even make sense…’
Before he could finish his thought, Diablo, who had lost his target, started attacking Callauhel again. But before Callauhel could stage an attack, Minhyuk and his group rushed out of the barrier and began to attack again.
“Rampant Sword.”
“Incarnation’s Dash!”
“Dragons’ Melee!”
Various skills once again engulfed Diablo’s body.
‘They’re afraid of my family?’
Perhaps it was true. The Rothschild Family was one of the world’s most prestigious noble families. They even had more property than an entire country. This was legit and proper information. People even assumed that the Rothschild Family had more power than a country’s president.
His words may be true but I doubt it.
However, there was something that he needed to do before he could ponder on this deeply. He first needed to hunt Diablo.
‘If I die now…’
He wouldn’t know what kind of artifact would drop from him. In addition, Callauhel couldn’t bear to imagine the level down penalty that he would receive since he was well beyond Lv580. It wouldn’t be strange to at least receive a 10% down penalty for EXP. But even that would deal a huge blow to him.
I’ll kill him first before I think about it.
‘Maybe their Barrier’s duration is running out.’
Perhaps they’re also feeling hurried and urgent.
Callauhel placed them in the back of his head as he continued attacking the wounded Diablo.
‘What the hell is this defense!!!’
He wondered how high his defense was. Despite their continuous attacks, his HP did not seem to fall below 50%. So, to deal with Diablo, Callauhel decided to start using his best one shot kill skill. However, he needed someone to drag the time for him.
“If what you’re saying is true, then draw Diablo’s attention for 10 seconds!”
During his battle against Minhyuk, he was not able to use his best one shot kill skill since they were fighting against each other toe to toe. However, if they were going to drag the time, then it might be possible for him to pull this out.
Then, Minhyuk answered.
“Okay!!!”
And with his words, Minhyuk and the rest of his group came out of the barrier and attacked Diablo.
“Flashing Spear!”
The light flashing at the end of Kaistra’s spear immediately caught Diablo’s attention. He was able to successfully drag Diablo’s aggro. Then, Diablo began to attack them.
Callauhel’s fan suddenly started to weigh ten times more than its original weight. There were actually five special properties engraved on his fan. Fire, water, thunder, earth, wind. These five special properties were Callauhel’s best skills. He could easily swallow and engulf his enemies just by maximizing the use of his fan and its properties.
After 10 seconds, Callauhel immediately swung his fan. He did not even give them any warning when he attacked.
Ali immediately noticed his actions so he quickly used a short-range mass teleport to increase the distance between Diablo and his party.
With Callauhel’s swing, light began to emanate from the characters engraved on his fan. Then, each of the properties exerted great strength.
Bang, bang, bang, bang, bang!
A powerful fire engulfed Diablo as strong wind with crackling lightning made him roar in anguish. Roots suddenly sprang up from the ground as they bound Diablo while the wind tore through his skin.
“Keuaaaaack!”
This was the first scream that Diablo had let out during their fight.
By the end of the skill, Diablo looked like he was about to keel over. Then, the aggro went back to Callauhel.
“Let’s end this with an all-out attack!”
Minhyuk and Callauhel were almost on par in terms of skills. He assumed that the first Royal Class, the Dragon Monarch, would also be as strong as them. Combining the overwhelming strength of these people might just let them kill Diablo.
“I get it!”
Diablo, who was bleeding all over his body, immediately rushed toward Callauhel. Callauhel tilted his fan to the back. But just as he was about to use his skills…
“Lightning Hell.”
Dark clouds hovered in the sky.
“A powerful lightning strike will hit Diablo! It’s a single attack so you don’t have to worry!”
Quickly gaining confidence, Callauhel lifted his fan to use his skills. But…
Baaaaang!
“Keheok!”
A lightning bolt struck Callauhel and left him in a stunned state.
[You have been stunned after being hit by a powerful lightning bolt.]
‘Wh, what?’
He couldn’t understand what had just happened.
Crack, crack, crack―
Having fallen into a stunned state, Callauhel could only move his eyes around. Then, he made eye contact with Minhyuk. He could see the corners of his mouth curling up in a smirk.
“You, you bastard…!”
Callauhel finally realized.
‘They wanted to reduce Diablo’s HP while killing me at the same time…!’
That was right. Callauhel had played very well as both a tanker and a dealer while Minhyuk and his party cleverly used the barrier to reduce Diablo’s HP. They have easily done this thanks to him being easily fooled. And that wasn’t all. His HP had also been reduced. What was worse was that all of his skills had been activated to attack Diablo.
Currently, he was being sucked dry in front of them.
He had killed himself.
Bang―
Another lightning bolt struck Callauhel. His vision turned white.
First, he failed his Maestro of Destruction quest and ate some big shit.
Second, he revived Diablo and was fed some big shit.
Third, he was used by them and ate some big shit.
“Y, you bit#$$■%#$%#$%.”
Unintelligible words came out of his mouth one by one. Then, Diablo approached Callauhel and cut his neck off.
Slash―
Then, his fan as well as an enormous amount of platinum dropped on the place where Callauhel was killed.
Callauhel gritted his teeth and squeezed out of the capsule when his connection ended.
“Minhyuuuuuuuuuuuk!”
The owner of the Rothschild Family, Rausch’s furious roar shook the entire mansion.
***
“Let’s have a meal!!!”
Ali’s barrier was released immediately after Callauhel’s death. As soon as it disappeared, Minhyuk used his skill ‘Let’s have a meal’. Let’s Have a Meal was a skill that also created an invisible barrier.
Seeing that Diablo was almost keeling over after being hit hard, he thought that the only way to successfully hunt him was to feed buffed dishes to Kaistra, his father Black Dragon, and Black Wizard Ali.
Once the barrier was set in place, the probability of cooking a high buffed dish would increase. And the buff that the people that ate his dishes would also be higher.
He first used his Create a Recipe skill on his father, Black Dragon. Based on what he had seen, it seemed like his father wanted to eat some doenjangjjigae.
He did not have enough time. He had to feed everyone within 30 minutes. So Minhyuk started cooking.
Zucchini and tofu were immediately chopped on the chopping board as he dissolved the deonjang in water.
While he was busy cooking, Diablo was already slowly trudging to where they were. Diablo stood in front of them as he stared at them in a daze. It seemed like he had already realized that it was impossible to attack them.
But then, Diablo suddenly spoke up after watching him cook for quite a while.
“…A… chef…?”
Minhyuk abruptly turned his head. He felt like chills running down his spine as he made eye contact with Diablo. Then, Diablo spoke again.
“…A dish… can you cook one for me…?”
“……?!”
Everyone stared in confusion at Diablo’s bloody appearance.
