Dr. Yu was still looking down on the floor. He looked very alert as if he discovered something underneath it.
"They will e here soon."
"That's why I asked you what it was."
Thud!
Just before Sungwoo finished asking, the ground around him vibrated. Everyone, including Sungwoo, stumbled.
Goo Goo Goo-
Soon, the entire cavern began to shake wildly. They could feel the vibration was slowly ing from a very deep place.
"Sungwoo, it looks like something is ing up quite soon. It's really big and very heavy."
"I can feel it, too."
A crack spread in the middle of the place that Dr. Yu was watching closely then it went down like a sinkhole. And black darkness soared from there.
Ooh ooh ooh-
Something like a black wave scattered in all directions and spread out like a huge screen.
The middle of the wide curtain popped out as if somebody pushed his hand in from behind. Something round appeared on top of the screen.
"Is it an eye?"
It was a huge eyeball. It slowly began to e out after pushing the darkness out of the veil. It was only an eyeball without any other part.
It tilted slowly from left to right and seemed to look around the entire cavern.
"What the hell…"
Without daring to move, Sungwoo and his allies looked at it with stiff postures and got ready for another battle.
At that moment, a message appeared.
-You are overwhelmed by the 'external existence'.
* All stats decrease. (-60%)
This message was the same as the one that Sungwoo saw when he opened the 'Demon's Door' and witnessed the monsters creeping out of it.
'Is it related to the Demon's Door?'
But at that time, Sungwoo's "deity status' crushed the monster because his status was higher.
In other words, that eyeball was higher than Sungwoo's deity status.
"World Eater!" Dr. Yu sighed and kneeled.
Blood gushed from his severed arm, but he didn't even care about it.
He was overwhelmed by the huge eyeball in front of him.
"Please..."
World Eater looked at Dr. Yu. Its huge pupil slowly expanded.
"Oh, no!"
At the same time, Dr. Yu's body began to be crushed.
Crunch- Crunch-
His skull was dented and his limbs were bizarrely bent.
His body began to press in the air as if the force of gravity was working from all directions acting.
"Argh! Ahhhhhhhh!"
It was punishment for Dr. Yu's breach of contract.
"Please! Don't! Ugh!"
His flesh and bones were squashed, and blood spewed out. But soon even that blood began to condense into a single point. It kept folding inward to the physically impossible point.
After all, Dr. Yu's body turned into a small piece of flesh and fell to the floor.
That was it.
"..."
Looking at that brutal scene, Sungwoo and his party realized they could not dare to deal with that huge eyeball.
It lifted its pupil and looked at them again. Its iris moved to diminish its pupil. Now, it fixated on Sungwoo.
-The 'unknown being' is staring at you.
The eyeball made no sound, just looking at him quietly.
Sungwoo couldn't know the feeling of the 'unknown being' because it had no other facial parts or even the eyelids.
-You have incurred the anger of the 'unknown being'.
It was clear that the huge eyeball hated Sungwoo terribly.
The hatred of the unknown being was familiar to Sungwoo because all the absolute beings in this game hated Sungwoo without exception.
'But this guy is dangerous. If it could use that power to kill me, just like Dr. Yu, how can I stop it?'
Just staring at Dr. Yu without touching a hand killed him instantly. Sungwoo didn't know how it was possible, so he couldn't figure out how to stop it.
'I just hope this guy can use it only for those who have a contract with him."
Sungwoo prepared to mobilize all the undead right away. He didn't think he could beat such an overwhelming creature. He had to find a way to escape by mobilizing them to block its attack.
At that moment, the creature moved its pupil from Sungwoo to some other place. It seemed as if its murderous look was being softened.
-The 'unknown being' has pledged that it will take your life someday.
Fortunately, the unknown being seemed to think it was not the right time to attack Sungwoo. The huge eyeball began to disappear into the black veil.
Soon, even the black curtain scattered away like smoke. Sungwoo and his party could not move for a while, standing in their place.
"What was that monster a moment ago?" asked Jisu, putting the sword back in the sheath, with a relaxed expression.
"I think I'll face that creature next time. I'll ask then."
Then, he looked around. It seemed there was nothing threatening around.
A message about the end of this battle appeared at that moment.
-You have successfully cleared the exclusive quest 'Provide Death to Those Who Can't Die'.
* Reward is given. (Exclusive Skill)
* Your fate has changed subtly.
Finally, the quest was pleted. And an exclusive skill was given to Sungwoo.
-You have acquired the skill .
-Skill grade has been improved. (Professional → Craftsman)
"Again?"
This was the fourth time he acquired such a skill.
As a result, Death Response reached the level of "craftsmanship."
