Chapter 1841
The god of the surface and the king of hell were fighting in a thunderous manner. Compared to them, a very small and insignificant black mouse hid in the rubble of the collapsed castle.
âThis is for the best right now.â
Squeak squeak! Squeak!
The round eyes of the mouse werenât shaken as he cleaned his fur that was soaked with blood that poured like torrential rain from the Absolutes. It was proof that he had confidence in his judgment and actions.
It was natural. An Old Dragon was a being who believed âmy way is the truth.â He had polymorphed into the form of a lowly creature, but Bunhelier never doubted himself. He didnât even feel shame. It was because his very existence was an honor. It didnât matter what he looked like or what he did. The value of an Old Dragon was immutable, butâŠ
âBaal has better defenses than I expected. He is unrivaled when it comes to tricks.â
In the process of collaborating with Baal in the past to drive Nevartan insane, Bunhelier was unknowingly cursed by Baal. Not only was he unable to exert his full power in hell, but he was also bound as soon as he became targeted by Baal. He tried his best to resist, but it was useless. Baal had prepared more means and methods. Bunhelier was at a disadvantage because Baal was in a position to control all of hell.
In any case, facing Baal head-on in his current state was nothing but suicide. He hid in the form of a mouse. It was just like before. The moment when Baalâs senses focused on Grid and he narrowed the vision of the hell moonâ
Little Bunhelier planned to aim for that moment to run to Grid and get Grid on his back.
***
âBunhelierâŠ! You managed to hide so well in a manner that isnât befitting your size!â Baal shouted after losing his life once because of Bunhelier, who appeared out of nowhere like an illusion. He didnât lose his composure just because he died once. He just raised his voice to provoke Bunhelier.
It was meaningless. Despite the provocation, Bunhelier was as quiet as a mouse.
âThis is a headache. He didnât get caught in the hell moonâs surveillance.â
By sharing his senses with the moon that distorted hell, Baalâs vision extended throughout hell. Most areas could be monitored in real time, except for the areas of Amoract, Leraje, and Eligos, as well as some safe zones. But now was an exception. It was because the vision of the hell moon was heavily focused on searching for Bunhelier.
In fact, Baal had been wary of Bunhelier from the beginning. It was because he was an Old Dragon. He couldnât let go of the potential of Gridâs Dragon Knight. Baal made it a basic premise of this war not to allow Grid and Bunhelier to cooperate.
Yet he allowed it once. At some point, Bunhelier escaped the surveillance of the hell moon and suddenly appeared to cooperate with Grid.
âCould it be that he turned into a creature smaller than a human?â
He might be weakened, but he was an Old Dragon. He was a master of magic. In other words, it was easy for Bunhelier to erase his traces. The only way for Baal to find him was to follow Bunhelier with his eyes, but Bunhelier was nowhere to be seen. It could simply be inferred that Bunhelier had âbecome smaller.â
âThere is a high chance he is mixed among demons.â
Baalâs consciousness turned toward the gate. It was the place where Asuraâs head and the demons protecting it were fighting against the intruders. There were thousands of demonic creatures there. There was a high chance that Bunhelier had changed into the same appearance as them and mixed in with them.
Laughter emerged. The demons who were escort demons usually took the form of âdogs.â He was dumbfounded when he imagined that an Old Dragon had polymorphed into the shape of a dog. He almost felt sympathy.
Thatâs right. Even the great Baal was limited to thinking about dogs. He never imagined that a dragon would polymorph into a mouseâŠ
âEvil Dragon Bunhelier⊠you are a cunning bastard who isnât obsessed with pride. You are the only Old Dragon that has ever turned into a demonic creature and crawled on the ground, and you will be the only one in the future.â
The eyes of the hell moon moved again according to Baalâs will during the provocation. Tens of thousands of eyes watched the demons at the entrance to Baalâs castle.
ââŠâŠâ
Gridâs expression wasnât comfortable as he quietly watched the situation. He realized the sacrifice of Bunhelier, who risked the humiliation of turning into a mouse to catch Baal off guard. He felt respect and gratitude for Bunhelier, who came up with and carried out the best method in the worst case situation.
âI have to do my best as well.â
According to Gridâs plan, Baal shouldâve died at least 20 times by now. However, Baal became stronger than expected and Grid only managed to kill him five times. It wasnât enough to shake Baalâs mentality. Then, as he was feeling nervous, Grid witnessed Bunhelierâs sacrifice.
The weakest and the worst of the Old Dragonsâin many ways, he didnât think highly of Bunhelier, but Bunhelier was still an Old Dragon. In a new and unexpected way, he seemed great.
Grid wanted to emulate him. He carefully calmed down his anxious mind.
âThe sword dance below a five fusion one is meaningless.â
It might be different in the Overgeared World, but it was too much to rely on just a single six fusion sword dance. Basically, there were too many movements. He had to do all six sword dances to complete the six fusion sword dance. If it was blocked in the process, it would be judged to be a sword dance that was less than a six fusion one.
Then Baal would be immune.
Grid recalled his skills other than swordsmanship. They were the skills obtained by completing various quests and from the Martial Godâs secret techniques. He also checked the types and functions of the magic he learned from Braham and the skills attached to his items.
Baal had been pressing Grid using the power of those killed by Grid. In other words, he was denying the path that Grid had walked. Ironically, Grid had to trust and rely on the path he had taken to fight and win against Baal.
This wasnât just a brawl. It was also a stage where Gridâs life was being put to the test. Above all, the future of humanity was at stakeâŠ
An order to gatherâhundreds of God Hands gathered around Grid. The swords and shields they were armed with were returned to Gridâs inventory.
A golden sun rose. It was a sun made by the God Hands binding together to form a circle. It was brilliant, unlike the black sun created through Baalâs magic. Grid stood in the center of the sun and transformed Twilight. It was a greatbow resembling Traukaâs roaring head. It was the dragon weapon he made for Jishuka.
[Fire Dragonâs Roar]
[Rating: Myth.
â Create a magic arrow every time the bowstring is pulled. The magic arrowâs attack power is affected by the userâs strength, agility, intelligence, and the total amount of invested resources.
â There will be additional attack power the fewer the number of arrows on the bowstring.
â The greater the number of arrows on the bowstring, the higher the absolute accuracy rate.
â The longer the time the bowstring is pulled, the more the attack power increases.
â The shorter the time the bowstring is pulled, the higher the firing speed.
â The absolute hit rate is always increased.
â The constant burst firing rate is increased.]
Etc, etc.
Originally, the basic effects of Fire Dragonâs Roar was optimized for archers. However, various effects were added to the Fire Dragonâs Roar that Grid reproduced with Twilight. It was because it was, as proven by its infinite durability, influenced by the material called âGreed.â
[â There is an 85% chance of neutralizing the targetâs defense skills, magic, and powers.
â Additional attack power is applied against Great Demons, Archangels, Gods, and Dragons.
â In dark places, the attack power of the weapon is increased by 80%.
â There is a probability of Disintegrate and Meteor occurring while attacking.]
The weapon that Grid recreated with Item Transformationâits current form was more powerful than the original. It was the result of the growth of Greed. It was the result of his work with Braham.
An arrow made of orange divinityâthe fully pulled bowstring aimed at Baal and fired with a roar. The impact was huge. It was like a real dragon shooting a Breath.
Baal snorted while the world was feeling shocked. âWhat are you going to do with a bow?â
Basically, projectiles were bad against Absolutes. No matter how fast a projectile was, it couldnât exceed the reaction speed of an Absolute. Of course, the Fire Dragonâs Roar had an absolute accuracy rate. The arrow shot by Grid chased after Baal like a guided bullet, rendering dodging meaningless.
It was useless. In the first place, Baal didnât dodge the arrow. He swung his demon sword lightly at it. The arrow of divinity failed to hit the target after it was cut in half by the sword. It scattered light and fell helplessly.
ă This is the reason why ranged dealers have low success rates in a solo raid. It is a weakness that becomes more apparent as the level of the enemy increases. ă
The experts who silently supported Grid throughout the battle started to carefully give an explanation. There were many viewers who sympathized. No one understood why Grid had to take out the bow weapon.
Only one personâJishuka was the only exception.
âIsnât this the best?â
Flash!
A light flashed at the edge of Jishukaâs vision as she contemplated the battlefield like a satellite. It was a trajectory created by the fall of a spear made of magic power. It was Disintegrate. It was the magic created by Gridâs attack.
âBah.â
The spear of magic falling overheadâBaal easily responded to it. This was a tactic that he had already dealt with several times in previous battles. Baal was learning that Gridâs attacks had a chance of triggering Disintegrate and Meteor. It wasnât easy for him to be hit.
Of course, Grid didnât think Baal would be easily hit either. Therefore, he took out a bow. Due to the combination of Weapons Mastery and Bow Mastery, Gridâs firing speed continued to accelerate. It was also the combination of the thimble that was based on the design that Jishuka personally obtained and Fire Dragonâs Roar.
The biggest advantage of archery was that he could act freely from a distance. Unlike swordsmanship, where he had to swing after putting the target in a âdistanceâ that was within reach, he could fire at the target to his heartâs content even from a distance with archery. Unless he allowed the enemy to approach, it was possible to shoot dozens of arrows in the time it took to swing the sword ten times. Additionally, the probability of triggering Disintegrate and Meteor due to Greed increased exponentially as the number of attacks increased.
A torrent of arrows rushed from all directions. The magic power spears and meteorites hurled toward the head of Baal, who slashed to block it. Finally, it covered the ground with shadows. There were just so many of them. It became physically impossible to dodge, so Baal focused his magic on his self-defense armor, rather than the demon sword.
Even Disintegrate and Meteor failed to penetrate Baalâs defense. However, Meteorâs principle of operation was to bring down meteorites from space. There was a âweight.â Baalâs body was unable to bear the overlapping weight and was crushed to the ground.
This was the situation that Grid had been aiming for. He couldnât use Shunpo due to the barrier blocking all types of movement skills, so he just rushed forward and reached Baal using pure speed. He completed the six fusion sword dance while Baal was raising himself up.
The jet black self-defense armor was torn to shreds. The power of the six fusion sword dance wielded by Defying the Natural Order exceeded Baalâs defense. The high probability of a critical hit and weak point attack was particularly threatening.
[The King of Hell fell after being struck by an arrow shot by God and died.]
A sentence was added to the epic.
Even his skill as an archer was the GOAT.
The imposing sight of Grid decapitating Baal and then stepping back to once again load more arrows stirred the world.
