Chapter 242: Fury 1

While on his way to the island, Junhyuk heard a soft voice.

[The High-Ranking Sorcerer in the Swamp of Despair has awoken. Lend him the help he needs, and he will give you a reward.]

He picked up the pace, crossing the stepping stones to see Hatma all tied up by the roots of a tree. Hatma laughed at him.

“You came alone? Where is that hatchling?”

“He will be here soon.”

“I want to see his face with the knowledge that he didn’t know anything.”

Junhyuk laughed.

“Give me the quest. When Gongon gets here, we’ll leave together.”

“Ah! The quest.” Hatma tapped his forehead with his finger and continue, “I am getting a lot of headaches lately. Bring me Bron’s brain.”

“Bron’s brain? Are you going to eat it?”

“Yes, can I use it any other way?”

“Who is Bron?”

“You will know when you see him. He has a large head.”

Junhyuk nodded, and Gongon appeared at the opposite side of the island and shouted, “Come here and carry me!”

He shook his head and was about to leave when Hatma said, “The enemy is over there.”

He looked at the side opposite of Gongon and shouted, “Gongon! I’ll cover you, so run here!”

Then, he ran to meet his enemies. Lugos and Kraken were running toward him, and Junhyuk unsheathed the dual swords once he saw Kraken.

Gongon would join in soon, evening out the numbers, but Junhyuk was suspicious of what Kraken would do. Blocking the way, he made it so the enemies couldn’t cross easily. However, Kraken extended his tentacles while running toward him.

Meanwhile, Gongon was struggling to cross the three-meter wide stepping stones. Kraken had no problem doing it, and Junhyuk frowned, looking at Lugos running after Kraken.

“Gongon, hurry!” he shouted loudly and used the Spatial Slash.

Kraken’s eyes popped out of its socket, and blood gushed out, but Junhyuk frowned. Kraken, who had been taking large strides, staggered for a moment, but kept running all the while.

Junhyuk teleported. He waited for Kraken to approach and swung his swords at Kraken’s head. Kraken blocked with blocked with a tentacle, but the debuff had been applied. The attack was a success, but Kraken had a hold of him at that point. Kraken raised him up, keeping both of his hands and legs immobile, and twisted him like wet laundry.

“Argh! Why this octopus head!?!”

His body twisted at the waist, and Junhyuk felt massive pain, looking 25 percent of his health at once. The attack hadn’t even landed a critical hit.

Still, the pain was real and debilitating, and now he understood why Gongon had cursed at the octopus soon after.

He should have teleported, but instead he went through the pain, feeling stupid for it. The octopus slammed him against the ground. Landing unevenly, he felt the damage spread through his body. Because he was all twisted up, he was unable to escape the impact, and, altogether, ended up losing 30 percent of his health.

Junhyuk rolled away while Kraken extended its tentacles at him, which he blocked with his swords.

At that moment, he heard Gongon’s voice, “Just die!”

Gongon came from behind and headbutted Kraken, who was pushed toward the Swamp of Despair. However, its tentacles were too long, and it looked like the octopus could come out of the swamp easily.

Junhyuk still ignored Lugos and ran toward Kraken. It was in the swamp, but instead of trying to get out, the octopus swung its tentacles toward him.

Junhyuk bit down of the pommel of his sword, and grabbed Kraken’s tentacle and teleported. Thirteen meters wasn’t a long distance considering Kraken’s tentacles had a range of ten meters, but he still teleported.

While in midair, he kicked Kraken. Meanwhile, Kraken tried to grab Junhyuk again, but he jumped to get way. Junhyuk had placed Kraken in the middle of the swamp while he landed safely away. He looked back and saw that Kraken had a fair distance to cover to get back to land.

With the Frozen Rune Sword’s debuff and the Swamp of Despair’s debuff, Kraken wouldn’t be able to leave within ten seconds. That was the best way to deal with the octopus.

After he dumped Kraken away, Gongon frowned and said, “I was going to kill it!”

“I know.” Junhyuk looked at Lugos and continued, “Let’s focus on the quest. It twisted me too, so I wanted to kill that octopus as well.”

Gongon laughed.

“Fine. Let’s take turns killing the octopus, but let’s take care of the quest first.”

Lugos didn’t know what to do, but he jumped voluntarily into the swamp. The allies couldn’t figure out what Lugos was up to, but he got to Kraken and grabbed his tentacles while enlarging his arms with muscle enhancement.

It was usually used as an attack, but Lugos was using it in the middle of nowhere. Lugos pulled Kraken out and launched him out of the swamp. The allies were speechless. Then, Kraken grabbed Lugos and pulled him out of the swamp.

Junhyuk was perplexed.

“That was possible?!”

The octopus had a ten-meter long reach, otherwise it wouldn’t have been.

Gongon smiled.

“It’s better this way!”

Junhyuk shrugged.

“I’ve used all my powers to dump Kraken in the swamp.”

“Could I tear it apart now?”

He laughed at Gongon’s answer, and said, “You may kill it now.”

“Good! Right. I will kill that octopus ten times over.”

Gongon bared his teeth and was about step forward when Junhyuk grabbed his head.

“Wait!”

“Why?”

“Wait till my Spatial Slash comes back.”

The Spatial Slash would increase their chances of dealing heavy damage, and he wanted to wait for it.

“What about them?”

“They’ll come this way.”

The Spatial Slash had a long cooldown, and the enemies quickly took off toward the island, going over the stepping stones.

Junhyuk grabbed Gongon and ran backward.

“What are you doing?”

“Let them come to the island.”

“Why?”

“It’ll be back soon.”

As he waited for the Spatial Slash, Gongon stared hard at the enemies getting to the island.

“They’re here.”

The hatchling dashed forward, and Junhyuk ran after him. With both of them approaching, Lugos took the lead. While he had used his muscle enhancement power, he had another tanking power left.

However, all of Kraken’s powers had returned.

Lugos dashed forward, and his body turned dark. Still, Junhyuk was faster, and he picked up speed. Kraken was using its tentacles like whips to slow Junhyuk down, but Junhyuk just blocked it with the Frozen Rune Sword, stacking debuffs. Both Kraken and Lugos were quickly debuffed and losing movement speed.

Each time he hit them, he felt the palm of his hand tearing up, but Junhyuk debuffed them while Gongon joined the fight.

Lugos swung his weapons, bug Gongon was too quick for him at that point. The dragon went in between Lugos’s legs and ran toward Kraken.

Lugos turned to attack Gongon, but Junhyuk slashed at his back. They already had a lot of debuffs in place, but Junhyuk wanted to stack more. He had learned to concentrate on debuffs nowadays.

Junhyuk’s sword stabbed Lugos’ back, and before Lugos had turned around completely, he stabbed again, even faster this time.

“Aaargh.”

Lugos groaned, but Junhyuk twisted the sword, stabbing even deeper and delivering additional damage.

The shockwave spawned from within Lugos, damaging him further. By then, he had already lost half of his life, but he was finally able to turn around and face Junhyuk.

Lugos started attacking, but Junhyuk knew that his stacks were stronger than Lugos’. Could Gongon deal with Kraken alone?

Kraken had received a Spatial Slash, so he believed that Gongon would be able to stand against it alone. His job was simple: kill Lugos. The Spatial Slash returned, but Lugos stomped the ground after blocking Junhyuk’s next attack.

Boom!

The shockwave on the ground launched the allies in the air. The counter attack began, and Kraken grabbed hold of Gongon’s legs. Kraken twisted Gongon, but Junhyuk raised the force field around Gongon soon after.

Gongon laughed hard as he landed and breathed fire. Kraken’s tentacles started burning, and Junhyuk felt the urge to eat roasted octopus tentacles.

After the attack, Gongon ran toward Junhyuk, placing them both inside the force field, and Junhyuk said, “I’ll kill Lugos.”

“I don’t care. That octopus twisted me again.”

“I saw it. You kill it.”

Gongon smiled. Kraken had 30 percent of its health left. From within the force field, Junhyuk made his strategy.

“The Spatial Slash can hit them both. I’ll go for Lugos, and you kill Kraken.”

“OK. Let’s do it.”

The allies waited until the force field disappeared and ran out. However, that’s when Kraken inked them.

Junhyuk was covered in ink and cursed instinctively, “Shit!”

Without sight, he had to go on defense. He tried to use his dual swords to block, but a tentacle grabbed his ankle, and suddenly he was in the air.

[You have fallen in the Swamp of Despair. Your ability to escape has decreased by 70 percent, and your movement speed has decreased by 95 percent. If you don’t leave the swamp within ten seconds, you will die.]

He gritted his teeth. There wasn’t much he had to worry about however as he could teleport again. His sight had come back, but he frowned. Gongon was flying in the air, but there was no way for Junhyuk to help.

“You octopus head! Stupid son of bitch!” Gongon cursed while in the air.

He couldn’t get to Gongon, and the hatchling would probably die, so Junhyuk teleported to the stepping stones.

“What about me?” Gongon shouted.

“I can’t help you.”

Junhyuk couldn’t save him even if he had teleported. He couldn’t get to him. Gongon was too far away.

With eyes filled with anger, the hatchling stared at Kraken.

“I have five seconds! Kill it before that!”

Junhyuk nodded and used his Spatial Slash at the octopus, taking another one of its eyes along with the rest of its life. It disappeared.

[You’ve killed Kraken and earned 3,000G.]

“Ha-ha-ha! You got what you deserved!” Gongon shouted.

Soon, Gongon went under in the Swamp of Despair and disappeared.
