Chapter 602 – Outbreak (1)
You said it right?
The procedure cannot be omitted under any circumstances.
So don’t even think about sneaking around.
[Class Quest: The Last of the Seven Deadly Sins, Arrogance]
Through the appropriate process, the Seven Deadly Sins of Arrogance were resurrected.
His power will sweep across the Arcana continent.
The malice of the Arcana Continent will obey him.
-Hunt down Pride that has beco the Seven Deadly Sins. (Ongoing)
It’s not just class quests that co out of nowhere.
You know that, right?
Why did you co to the Arcana Continent in the first place?
“My lord, if there’s anything you’re concerned about……?”
Hiel’s question reminds of my original purpose.
Bael, the first Demon King of the Throne.
His grasp destroyed the Behemoth’s Maw.
And the Holy War Alliance is heading towards Behemoth’s Maw.
‘It’s not about prioritizing.’
Grandfell, I’m noticing sothing strange about you.
Just know that these two things are not the end of what you have undertaken. I’m sure you’re not the kind of person who would leave behind the work that our heavenly Grandfell has entrusted to you, right?
‘You don’t have writing skills, such irresponsible behavior.’
Are you offended by my words?
Grandfell’s voice answered Hyel’s.
“I’m not worried about that.”
“……If that’s the case?”
“The chase is gone.”
“!”
Well, he wasn’t lying.
In an urgent situation, why do we have ti to stop and think?
My demon hunter’s senses were telling .
Bael, his grasp seed to have disappeared sowhere on the Arcana continent for so reason.
‘I wouldn’t be surprised if he’s returned to the Demon World.’
As we’ve seen in the past, in the Curse, Bael was an off-the-scale, out-of-tiline being.
For such a creature, jumping the distance from the Arcana Continent to the Demon World shouldn’t be a problem.
‘So how co no one was hurt?’
Grandfell looked over at a relieved Hiel.
“You were afraid to face , Bael. You showed off your tail.”
Bravado.
The sa bravado, as always.
The sight of it almost broke my tension.
Don’t let your guard down, Hoyeol.
‘Say what you want, but I’m not going to let go of your ankle.’
Call crude, but I can’t help it. Because I, Lee Hoyeol, am not strong enough to stop what’s about to happen……! I checked the flashing ssage.
[The Arcana Continent is stained with original sin.]
[The Seven Deadly Sins are resurrected.]
The Seven Deadly Sins are back.
One might ask.
How can they be resurrected after falling to hell?
‘That’s right.’
Why do demons tremble at demon hunters? This was because a demon who was hunted by a demon hunter and fell to hell could not be resurrected by any ans.
Therefore.
[The Seven Deadly Sins, ‘Sloth’ is stretched].
[The Seven Deadly Sins, ‘Gluttony,’ clutches its stomach in hunger].
[World Event, ‘The Rise of the Great Evil’ begins.]
If Sloth and Gluttony hadn’t been slain by my hand, they would have been resurrected sowhere on the Arcana continent. As a demon hunter, it’s easy to see why I’ve been unable to track them down.
Arcana is a continent with a different atmosphere, isn’t it?
Even if the Seven Deadly Sins have been resurrected. What kind of strength could they have gotten from the Arcanians, who are too busy moving forward to be bothered by negative emotions?
‘It wasn’t even captured by Tempest’s sense of sll.’
But the atmosphere took another turn.
Seven Deadly Sins Arrogance.
So it was Pride’s fault for the accident.
“I don’t know what the process was.”
The system ssage that never lies assured that the Arcana continent was tainted with original sin, so it must be stronger than ever.
I glanced at Dawn’s Jacket.
“You saved a lot of trouble.”
More precisely, the jewels that adorned the jacket, the loot of the great evil.
[Neutral Parasitic Creature]
Well, normally I would have been happy.
This ti, I might be able to collect all seven of the Seven Deadly Sins and activate their set effects.
The synergy with [Sixth Sight Brooch] would be incredible, and I would have been tempted to eat it raw.
However.
‘You’re so capricious, Hoyeol.’
I wonder why.
I didn’t want to acquire the loot of the Seven Deadly Sins.
I don’t want to say who made feel that way, but I just did.
Even if it wasn’t necessarily the loot of the Seven Deadly Sins.
Sothing in was being filled and completed.
I felt like I was getting further away from Grandfell.
Of course.
“Give my regards to the Holy War Alliance.”
“My lord….?”
“I’ll handle it according to the procedures and co back.”
ttogag.
Grandfell, who does not hesitate in front of any demon, was already taking steps. [Heavenly Demon Reign], in just one step, he approached the evil that was beginning to spread on the Arcana Continent.
“W-who are you?”
Hwaleuleug.
No words were necessary.
Just for daring to raise his voice in front of Grandfell.
A lesser demons are the sa
A lowly demon like this, consud by the fires of hell.
My speed was scorching as I watched the scene.
It really was.
‘……What the hell is so urgent, Grandfell?’
Because it felt like the end with you was approaching.
*
Antonium, capital of the Empire.
It was different from the past when it was a waste of ti.
The streets were alive with activity.
Even the taverns were bustling with custors in broad daylight.
A chatty conversation can be heard there.
“The Seven Deadly Sins are resurrected? Can they be resurrected too?!”
“Get ready to leave in the hustle and bustle, don’t you know what the world ssage has co up with? Considering the scale, I’m sure we’re going to get a lot of beans, right?”
“Fuck the beans. Can’t you see it’s not another mob, it’s a demon?”
If you’re a skilled player, you’ve seen and learned sothing by now.
“Lee Hoyeol is right, we’ll give way to demons!”
If it’s a demon, it’s a demon.
There was no escaping Lee Hoyeol’s ‘disposal’.
The player who spoke pessimistically recited a phrase.
“If there are billions of demons in the world, they will all be hunted by Lee Hoyeol; if there are 100 million demons in the world, the remaining 100 million will also be hunted by Lee Hoyeol; if there is only one demon left in the world, he will also be hunted by Lee Hoyeol; if there is no single demon left in the world, Lee Hoyeol will stop hunting.”
“Hon.”
“Just Hon.”
He wasn’t exaggerating.
Every demon, great evil, and the Ten Thrones had fallen to Hell because of Hoyeol’s influence. If it weren’t for him, this nonsense would never have happened.
“That makes wonder if the rumors aren’t true.”
“What rumor?”
“No, the rumor that the Commander in Chief’s class is demon hunters.”
“Damn. It’s because you don’t know about demon hunters.”
“You know?”
“I’ve raised it myself, what’s it called? …….Yeah, Akshan, do you have any idea how shitty the class quests are there? I don’t know if I was doing Arcana Continent Chronicle or hard work back then. How many tis do I have to tell you that the best thing I ever did in my life was delete my account and grind again?”
‘Akshan’ ca out of nowhere.
“Uug.”
juleuleug.
The word made the man, who had been gulping down a bucket of wine to match his size flinched, and the wine spilled out of the corners of his mouth, splattering the man’s face.
“Ew, dirty.”
“You’re a terrible drinker, you are.”
“It’s completely done, Hanamja.”
“……Hanamja? What does that an?”
tl/n: 상남자 is used as ‘manly man, real man’.
하남자(Hanamja) is not used, but the speaker said it as the opposite word of 상남자.
“Don’t you know that? Do your best to explore the anomaly.”
The big guy who was called Hanamja was Rockid.
Of course, it was the Shadow rcenary Corps who were looking for Rockid.
Hanamja.
“Ha…….”
Does this an that he is a man so great that it makes you laugh out loud?
I don’t think he ant it in a bad way, so let’s move on.
Rather.
Rockid started making excuses that weren’t excuses.
“I should be able to stand still after hearing that damn Akshan!”
“Are you going to tell the commander-in-chief?”
“What?! You filthy little rat. Did you say sothing I couldn’t say?!”
Akshan.
The word that gives him PTSD just by hearing it.
Rockid drank to forget his post-traumatic stress.
He gulped down the wine.
“I’m drunk, I’m drunk. It wasn’t that bad when I fought in the Colosseum. It wasn’t that hard to fight for my life……!”
In that sense, I could only be grateful to Kichi.
“Anyway, I’ll always be grateful to you for making the decision to leave Akshan, Kichi. Not that there’s anything I can do about it, but……”
I don’t know what the hell your training was like in Akshan.
Did it turn the mythical undefeated Rockid of the Colosseum into hanamja?
It was a sight to behold.
“Anyway.”
“You need to stop spitting your drink.”
“Are you drunk already, Rockid?”
“You’re a real man, man.”
“You’re old enough to be broken, man.”
“Ugh…”
Kichi remained steadfastly silent.
There was only one thought in her mind.
The resurrection of the Seven Deadly Sins within sight of the adventurers.
‘If only we hadn’t left Akshan.’
Couldn’t they have been of so help to the commander-in-chief?
‘The world is still full of demons.’
She felt a pang of guilt.
‘Maybe we were ant for the commander-in-chief.’
I wondered if I had left the commander alone on a lonely battlefield.
The only one who could understand Kichi’s feelings was Wolfe, who had taken over for a short ti.
“I don’t think you’ll mind, Captain.”
“Huh?”
“You’re not what you used to be.”
But.
Kichi and the Shadow rcenaries are in the capital of the Empire.
Why is Antonium staying?
It was because of the orders of the commander-in-chief, not anyone else.
Wolfe continued.
“I don’t know if we’ve been recognized, or if he’s lowered his expectations of us, but I think we should do what we’ve been given to do first.”
Kichi nodded.
“Right, because it’s not like the mission is easy.”
The mission.
To protect the World Tree that was growing in northern Antonium. Let’s see, the original guardians of the World Tree were dragons and the dragon knights who rode dragons like horses.
“Well, that’s certainly a mission worthy of a Primordial Evil. What are you doing, Rockid, drinking wine without permission?”
“Huh? Kichi, what did you say, hehehe.”
“……That’s really bad, that one.”
“Let’s just leave him alone.”
“That’s right, Captain. I’m embarrassed to go around with that guy.”
Eventually, the Shadow rcenaries left Rockid at the tavern and headed off in the direction of the World Tree.
Even from so far away, an unusual aura seed to carry with it.
Alkali chuckled and made a joke.
“Then it’s on a different level from a self-proclaid god like yourself.”
“……I can hear you, old man.”
“It’s an unfair contract, but I’ll listen to your complaints.”
“Is that so?”
A brief lull in the conversation.
Soon enough, we were at the World Tree.
The Shadow rcenaries’ vision was dazzled by a sight.
“……!”
Ears perked up.
An elf.
A group of elves who had apparently arrived at the World Tree first.
DeShev breathed a sigh of relief.
“Whoa, thank goodness there’s no Rockid.”
It was Rockid, who had a record of being trampled by Elsidor, an elf who appeared in the world of adventurers.
He must have been drunk because he pounced on those pointy ears as soon as he saw them.
When everyone paused, Kichi led the way.
“I’m guessing that’s where the commander-in-chief’s orders ca from.”
Even if elves were rumored to have a nasty temper.
After all, they were one under the Holy War Alliance, weren’t they?
Kichi approached the elves.
Halt.
But then, Kichi was forced to stop in her tracks.
It wasn’t because the elves had foul tempers and were spewing out killing intent.
The elves weren’t even looking at Kichi.
That’s right.
“Ah, Mother.”
The elves fell to their knees before the World Tree and wept.
Why.
So green.
They were caressing the withering World Tree.
The elf, Agentress opened his mouth quietly.
“Still, don’t worry.”
Agentress still believed.
“He will return.”

Why does a demon hunter who becos a demon lose his life at the hands of the sa demon hunter?
One might ask.
All Akshan Demon Hunters harbor a deep grudge against demons. It is the life of an Akshan Demon Hunter that they cannot survive without using that deep grudge as their driving force.
If such a demon hunter were to discover that he or she had been corrupted by a demon, would they not be the first to take their own life?
The reason is simple. Because even the best demon hunters don’t know they’ve been corrupted. That’s why I’m writing this.
That’s right.
This is the story of Grandfell Claudi Arpheus Roo, Claudi’s lord, who ca to Akshan to beco a demon hunter as a vessel of great evil.
This is the story of a demon hunter.
