Never Die Extra Chapter 444

Chapter 444

The Great Ancient Wizard, Attack the Tower (4)

―Hmm…you’re a demon that looks quite promising, but you’ve stepped into this place on your own.

Evan didn’t meet a Demon that had entered the tower as a challenger until about twenty of the statues were destroyed. Of course, many monsters appeared as enemies. Still, most of them were demons that moved according to their instincts, and there were monsters close to the Demon Tribe, but who were cla.s.sified as mere monsters. So, he was thinking maybe he had to go to the top floor to meet other Demons.

―I’m sorry for your youth and potential, but the G.o.d of this dungeon is cruel. If you want to hear him, you’ll have to climb more than twice as high as you’ve ever climbed…

Was he going to meet a Demon in a place like this? If he had heard this from the perspective of a young Demon challenging the top of the tower, he would have nodded his head to say, ‘This is what the dungeon scenario should be like.’ Evan, who was here right now, wasn’t a Demon but a human.

“You, do I look like a Demon?”

―Oh, my G.o.d, you’re a bad junior. You already know that my eyes can’t see.

Come to think of it, it was true. The Demon’s legs were torn apart, it had no arms, and its eyes had been crushed by the hideous claw marks raked down its face. However, the fact that it was still breathing in such a situation made Evan guess that it would have been quite capable in the past.

“But I went through this floor, and you fell from it.”

―Whoo, don’t be so arrogant. This tower takes your life the moment you let your guard down.

Evan burst out laughing.

“Hehe, you’re nice for a member of the Demon Tribe.”

―If there had been a little chance left for me, I would have devoured the blood of my junior’s heart, but now that there is no possibility left, I am giving honest advice…

If Maybell had heard this, she would have been angry, saying, “Not all Demons are perverted psychos!” but in fact, that was the ideal image.

―I’d like to ask you a final favor. Will you throw me out of this tower…?

“How come?”

―I’ve been stuck in this tower for so long. At least I want to face death outside…

“I’d be happy to.”

Evan was willing to approach him and help him. But at that moment, blood spurted from the Demon, forming a tentacle to restrain Evan’s body. The Demon thrust his remaining arm into Evan’s heart! And, of course, the arm was crushed.

―Argh! Argh!

“Since it’s a Demon dungeon, it’s not surprising

Evan nodded in admiration as he looked down at the Demon, who now completely lost its limbs and was rolling on the floor. The blood of the Demon? It disappeared as soon as it reached the Annihilation protecting Evan.

“It seems that it wanted to give its own body to let his junior know that he shouldn’t let his guard down.”

―Ahhh, Ahhhhh!

“But I’m relieved that I’ve never let my guard down in the first place.”

When such a sneaky Demon tried to do something, it lost its life on the 20th floor, in a beginner’s area. Evan reached out with a proud appreciation as if he had completed listening to the game’s essential events and neatly wiped out the old Demon, absorbing his blood crystal.

“I’m sure the blood crystals have a big meaning in this tower.”

It felt like the tower was reacting when Evan absorbed the life of the old Demon. Then, what if the tower was influencing the decisions of the Demons? Compared to the first time he entered the tower, the blood crystals became livelier and even emitted a strong light. A strong light that would easily enthrall you if you weren’t resistant to Dark Magic.

“And Demons have this in their bodies? It’s no wonder they’re already under a hallucination…”

This tower was a brazier, melting the blood of the Demons inside, producing special results…

“I’m looking forward to the top floor.”

He destroyed the children he made with his own hands; he was amazed by the behavior of the G.o.d of this dungeon.

“It’s said that it fell from twice this floor, right?”

There was no guarantee that the old Demon would know exactly, but it wouldn’t have gone that far. The total number of floors was 60, which was chewing gum compared to the 100th floor of the Sherden Dungeon. He was confident that he would conquer the tower in one day.

“Here we go!”

Evan, who killed the Demon, quickly climbed the stairs, feigning to be a great adventurer. Monsters appeared at their worst timing with vicious traps, but he lightly weighed it all down and headed up and up again. Let’s say the Dark Magic, which he originally had, was about 100 in the process of perfectly clearing the Sherden Dungeon. In this tower of the demon, double that energy could be collected on every floor. When he pa.s.sed the 50th floor, the total amount of Dark Magic was already around 1,000.

‘This is a bug item.’

It wasn’t enough that it allowed humans to enter the dungeon dedicated to the Demons. Still, he was strengthened by breaking through the limit by sucking the Dark Magic of the Demon statues. He felt that Devil Rune, carved to suppress the Dark Magic of his boots, was about to burst. However, Evan, along with Ctheasil and his mother, Redine, explored and made the Devil Rune themselves.

By controlling the growing Dark Magic in real-time, he modified the item by engraving the Devil Rune on his boots. Using the Dark Magic’s explosive power, he concentrated on strengthening his destructive power and increasing his instantaneous firepower. Although the amplification rate still increased as the force was suppressed, so much Dark Magic had been injected that the inhibition was now loosened.

‘All right, done. It’s more than twice the maximum power I can afford without any concern.’

The Demon G.o.d of this dungeon was really worth a try. He thought that when he entered the 60th floor, and unfortunately, a change came to him just in time.

“Oh, it’s almost evening. No, not this.”

The sunset of the Demon Realm over the small window of the tower certainly tasted special, but that wasn’t the point now. Evan took his eyes off the window and focused on a figure over the corridor that was neither wide nor narrow. A giant with Black Magic…there was a Demon that was strong enough to have possessed a name inside the game.

– Demon…no, are you human?

As soon as he saw Evan, he asked. In fact, it was normal to notice that the demonic energy emanating from Evan wasn’t coming from his blood. A human being came into the tower. And with a wild type of blood pumping through his veins…interesting.

“Challenger? You waiting?”

-That’s right.

The Demon nodded calmly.

―I am Hestar, the sixth head who serves Beato, who is the strongest in the Demon Realm!

“That self-introduction is very annoying. What’s a sixth head? Good for you, man.”

―I’m the sixth of the six Demons to follow Beato, you idiot!

Evan, of course, was aware of that. The moment it heard him, it was agitatedly trying to hide its feelings.

It said, Beato. Beato. Beato was the strongest of the ten Demon knights and was one of the three Demons called the Three Rivers. The name was Imma Beato!

“I thought it was a silly attack, but I didn’t expect to find any trace of it here because he never showed up until the end of the war.”

Evan was a little thrilled, though he never showed up. How hard he worked to get information about Beato, who was considered the strongest among the ten Demon knights and didn’t appear until the end!

“That’s what it was. Imma Beato died in this tower, so it couldn’t come out until later…”

―Beato is alive! Alive! What’s more, Beato must have called you! How dare you call him Imma!

“The fact that you said the same thing twice makes it clear that Beato is Imma.”

―Hmppph…! He’s the strongest of those under the influence of the Devil…!

He thought it would start to cry If he pushed it a little more.

―Beato is waiting for a challenger on the top floor of this tower. You will be reborn as the true son of the demon, beating every challenger fairly and winning the heart of the demon, the h.e.l.l Ruby!

“Aren’t I already the son of the demon? Oh, no. I don’t have to explain the complicated circ.u.mstances.”

Anyway, it was saying that Beato was up there. He even tried to put his underlings downstairs to fight off his compet.i.tors without him coming forward.

“I don’t know, it seems like there’s a lot of Demons on top, but it doesn’t seem like a fight for that.”

―Well, there was quite a bit until now. You fought well because you said you were qualified to challenge me.

“As expected, the Demons are the only fools.”

Even Hestar could be just under the ten demons when it comes to forcing. He couldn’t ignore such a strong man’s words. They seemed to have fought with each other, but wouldn’t it be okay to treat Hestar with the bunch of them? If he wanted to absorb his blood and become stronger, it would be better to take care of Hestar and take his blood.

“Well, it doesn’t matter. So what floor is the last of this tower?”

―Do I need to let you know? You’re gonna die here anyway!

It seemed that he didn’t even want to mix words with Evan anymore. Hestar immediately stretched his horn forward and threw the Dark Magic sphere he had created toward Evan! Evan threw it back skillfully. His throwing skill shone, and the Dark Magic sphere cut through s.p.a.ce faster than the light to penetrate Hestar’s forehead!

―Arggghh!

Evan kicked off the floor, approaching Hestar, who was yelling in pain and compressed his body with Annihilation. All that was left was two brilliant black horns and his blood.

“This is a good material, too…the Demons are nice people, except that they’re foul-mouthed.”

Evan hummed and walked down the hall where there was nothing left. He asked what floor was the top, but he had already predicted it. A man t.i.tled the sixth appeared on the 60th floor, so if you go back to fifth, fourth, and third, some of them would appear on the 65th floor. If you beat him to the 66th floor, there would be Beato.

“66th floor, six men…maybe it means something like this.”

The combined number was 666, or the number of demons in the Bible. Just as Evan was under the Dark Magic of the Demon King in the past, he may have triggered something of a ritual by killing Hestar. However, he didn’t have a colleague to protect right now, and he was confident that he could just break through this kind of trick.

“Okay, not much time left.”

It was still early in the evening when he looked outside the window. Suddenly, the Imugi’s tail, which was winding around the tower, was seen pa.s.sing through the window, and Evan had a smile on his face.

He was looking forward to this in many ways.
