Never Die Extra Chapter 213

Chapter 213

Evan D. Sherden, straighten things out. (1)

“Ouch!”

Evan’s full speed crash was going on in real-time.

It was fortunate that the path they ran through was a rugged and remote road without people, but if one were to think about it, it was because Evan’s actions were already difficult in the first place.

He ran with Raihan for a few minutes and learned new tricks little by little, but there was still a long way to go until they could perform an accident-free operation. No matter how well the cla.s.s’ talents were, it wasn’t easy to be skilled with unique skills.

“Hey! Oh!”

“Master, aren’t you sick?”

“Don’t think that the amount of damage inflicted on the body and the pain humans feel are the same!”

Raihan sighed as he watched the healing magic he had repelled from Evan again.

From a while ago, he was. .h.i.tting and breaking things like a giant tree that was hundreds of years old and bigger than a golem, making loud noises in the process, but Evan himself wasn’t taking any damage!

‘Master Evan always said that he had high defense because he was wearing boots, but now that he’s not even wearing them, just how high is his level of existence?’

For reference, Evan was even jamming slime with both hands as they went!

Raihan couldn’t help but wonder about Evan’s true strength.

“We’re here.”

Evan suddenly stopped. Miraculously enough, they didn’t crash.

“It’s a place with a whole lot of nothing.”

Raihan, who came down from Evan’s back and stepped on the ground, tilted his head. This was the border region of the far west of the Silk Line, a plateau in the wilderness.

Only a few wolf-type monsters were howling under the hill in the distance, but the whole area was very quiet. He even doubted that Default had tricked Evan.

“It has nothing, so it would have been easy to hide. It was the same when I went to the Witch Forest last time, but it seems that the witches are learning how to hide by creating a subs.p.a.ce, just like a dungeon.”

Evan looked around, nodding. Raihan moved his gaze back and forth as if following him, but he could not find any traces of magic.

“So… How do we enter, Master?”

“I didn’t think of that.”

“Master…?”

Raihan thought it was a joke. This was because he had never seen a case in which Evan lacked in terms of preparation.

‘Do we wait until s.h.i.+ne gets here? No, that’s a typical pattern for quests to fail.’

As Evan mulled over these thoughts, an idea popped into his head.

“Yes, you said that Devil Runes attract each other.”

“Master?”

Evan pulled out the cursed demon’s boots from the inventory pocket again, put them on, and completely dispelled the magic of his mother, Redine, from the boots.

Covering Evan’s whole body in an instant, the boots spewed gloomy magic around him!

“Why are you still wearing the boots after you’ve already revealed them?”

“I’m afraid they might get stolen.”

“I thought that was the reason.”

However, Raihan decided not to stop him. Evan was still ridiculously strong even while wearing the boots, anyway.

“Oh, Master!”

“I saw it too!”

It was then. At the same coordinates where Evan’s Knights were, the scene began to distort!

The very next moment, Raihan recognized it – Thump! Thud! The pulsing sound resounded in continuation, and the range of the air widened.

“Get ready, Master! Something is coming!”

“It looks like I’m not going in, but breaking the barriers…Hyeong, start the motion!”

“I’m on it!”

Kwa-a-a-ang! The very moment when Raihan lifted the s.h.i.+eld Evan had given him and firmly stiffened the guard, a roaring sound vibrated throughout the earth!

The hidden witch’s laboratory was eventually revealed to the world!

“What!?”

“The subs.p.a.ce is broken! G.o.d, that monster will be released to the world!”

“Who the h.e.l.l… Evan!?”

Realizing that the surrounding environment had changed, Evan looked around.

Ctheasil and other young witches, as well as the witches led by Melonia, had gathered together. In the middle of them, a huge monster was so distorted that it was impossible to recognize what its original form was!

[He…… Calls for youuuuuu!]

“What… Follow my control!”

[Kuhahahahahah!]

That very monster was the main culprit in breaking the subs.p.a.ce. It looked like a sandcastle made by mixing mud and human flesh, but it was not at the level of a mixture of one or two monsters, as the traces of the dark red Devil Rune covered its entire body.

It was the appearance of a monster that was to be called a new Chimera, Devil Rune Chimera.

“Don’t move! The enemy is right in front of you! Not that way!”

[More power… The demon is calling upon me!]

It seemed that he was originally aiming at Melonia, but from the moment Evan appeared in the demon’s boots, Devil Rune Chimera’s target changed to Evan. It seemed that Ctheasil was trying to do something, but the seeds didn’t work, either.

“This is…”

“Master, you can’t do this without taking your boots off…”

“It’s an opportunity.”

“…What?”

Evan’s eyes sparkled. His gaze was fixed on the Devil Rune, which was entangled in the monster’s whole body and emanating its own gloomy light.

“The random Devil Rune is showing its power right now. It’s your chance to explore it! I can finish my research here!”

“Are you crazy, Master Evan!?”

“It’s a lot weaker than Grandpa Leo! Hyeong, hold the guard up firmly!”

The witches who were trying to dominate the Devil Rune monsters, and the witches who were hostile to them, are now looking at them with desolate gazes.

This was Evan’s turn to s.h.i.+ne!

[That…… Bring it out!]

Finally, the mound attacked. The Devil Rune flashed gloomily, then some of its torso came off and evaporated. Then, to Evan’s surprise, it appeared in the air and fell towards Raihan.

[What? What the h.e.l.l is this?!]

Raihan had already prepared for this beforehand, successfully blocking the attack in the process.

The Enduring s.h.i.+eld and the Drain s.h.i.+eld activated at the same time, almost completely blocking the damage it inflicted, and at the same time absorbing a small portion of the magic power!

“Master Evan, this thing…… The magic power is great. I only absorbed a little, but my body is already overflowing with magic!”

“But it’s okay because it’s not me who should stop it, it’s you!”

[Kuh-oh-oh-oh!]

While his attack flew off to Raihan, Evan approached the Chimera’s torso and took quick steps using Heaven’s Press. The Devil Rune of Evan’s boots reacted with his body, s.h.i.+ning purple.

[Human, you would dare to use that power…!]

“No, this is my strength. Hop!”

Heaven’s Press was a move that could completely overpower its opponents. However, like the Devil Rune monsters he encountered before, his Devil Rune was also equipped with a s.h.i.+eld-forming function, and as if against Evan’s footwork, he created countless s.h.i.+elds under his feet to block it.

Even though he was aiming for a gap to attack Raihan, an immediate reaction appeared, and it was found that the Devil Rune was activated regardless of the owner’s will.

[Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!]

“I knew it wasn’t going to be easy.”

Of course, Evan ended up destroying the entire s.h.i.+eld and exerting terrible pressure on its entire body, but that was by no means his full power.

[How, how dare you…!]

“Okay, then let’s go back to Heaven’s Press!”

[Now—…ahhhhhhhhh!]

This was truly a huge clash of power! It was a chaos of movements aimed at gaining the upper hand in terms of power.

As the collision repeated, it was seen that some change took place in Evan’s Devil Rune. The Devil Rune, mixed up in a mess with the same kind of power, began to find order.

‘It’s strange to use the expression of order when it comes to power above normal standards on a Devil Rune… Anyway, it’s just as I intended! Just a little more!’

Evan added strength to both hands and activated Heaven’s Press. The waves of heavenly gravity, which covered Evan’s hands and expanded, formed the shape of a truly enormous palm, pressing the Devil Rune Chimera. Its appearance was similar to the Palm of Ru Lai!

[Kick, kie, eh…! Keep it away! I mean give it to me…!]

“I can’t give it!”

Devil Runes had a tendency to become one. If both sides shared it, it was natural that it would only flow in favor of one side.

Evan was holding the Devil Rune Chimera tightly by activating Battle Step and Heaven Press at the same time.

[Die!]

“Hyeong!”

“I know!”

[Uh, ohhhh!?]

Moreover, whenever the Chimera hit with a full-fledged attack, the attack was automatically driven toward Raihan.

[Ah, ah, ah! Beating the cause and effect of the attack, is that also your power!?]

“Oh, that’s not me, but Hyeong’s strength.”

“Wow!”

Either he raised his ugly melted arm or threw a sphere of magical power created by the power of the Devil Rune; however, they would only hit Raihan, not Evan.

That alone was a good thing. Due to Raihan’s perfect guard, his attacks did not cause any significant damage!

“Master, that attack is very heavy!”

“That’s how good your s.h.i.+eld skill training is!”

“It’s very different from the story I first heard… Oh, no!”

[Kaaahahahah!]

As Evan counterattacked, Raihan made sure to soak up all the monster’s attempts at injuring his master.

The witches? They were urgently avoiding the area that was being affected so as not to be swept away. If Evan failed to defeat him, the monster’s next target would surely be them!

“If this continues…… Didn’t I tell you to follow my instructions?!”

“Nuna, no!”

However, there was only one of them who wanted to approach the monster without giving up. It was Ctheasil.

Default tried to stop her desperately, but she shunned her brother’s curse and stretched her wand toward the Chimera.

“Accept your rightful master! I don’t have time to play with that little boy anymore!”

“Huh!?”

[My master is only the demon! Those who block the way to him will die!]

The timing wasn’t good. Hence, the moment Ctheasil came to the fore, the Devil Rune Chimera overcame the constant pressure of the heavens, greatly expanded the entire scene, and brought out the power of the Devil Rune!

Its body glowed. The same magical power soared without end. In the meantime, the Devil Rune covered his body, and all of Evan’s attacks were effortlessly repelled.

‘d.a.m.n it. This is a special move!’

It was the first pattern he had experienced, but Evan felt intuition. Whether it was the Yo-Ma Great War Series or any other game, all the bosses had ample time to show off their special moves.

“Oh, it’s chewing everything up to the heavens! I can’t cancel this, Hyeong!”

“Master Evan, you have to step back!”

“Hmm!”

Raihan, who had been educated by Evan and knew about the boss monster’s general behavior pattern and how to respond each time, quickly moved to block the attack and cast a single-shot auxiliary magic on himself.

The only problem was Ctheasil. Even Default had bravely gone out to defend her.

“Is this just trolling?” Raihan lamented. All of the party members he had gone through so far were only good guys who followed Evan’s orders immediately, but these people… they really wanted to die, didn’t they?!

“Hyeong! You can’t die again!”

“It’s okay, Master.”

Raihan took a step forward and raised his s.h.i.+eld.

However, Ctheasil and Default were already approaching the monster’s front. Even if the monster’s attack was concentrated on Raihan, it would be difficult for the two of them to avoid any damage.

‘I can’t do it, it’s a bit dangerous, but I…’

As Evan moved, Raihan screamed, his thoughts moving in sync with what his master was planning to do.

“Come to me, monster!”

He was only holding a short and thick sword. What the h.e.l.l would that change?

But it did change. The next moment, the monster appeared in front of Raihan’s eyes. Regardless of his intentions, he was led by his protection.

[You’ve been bothering me until the end, d.a.m.n thing! If that’s what you wish, then dieeeeeeee!]

Magic powerful enough to destroy a city spilled all over Raihan’s body.
