Chapter 785

Screech .  Screech .  Screech . . .

Clatter .  Clatter .

Screech . . .

As the carriage containing Grid entered deep into the forest, the cries of the beasts subsided .  The only sounds that could be heard in the silent forest were the wheels of the carriage and the footsteps of the soldiers .

“Monster?”

The birds and beasts hiding was a sign that monsters would appear . Grid naturally knew such common sense .

Kasim replied to Grid .  

-Monsters can’t pop up on a forest that the people of Titan often use .

-It’s people .

-There are many people hiding in the area .

Kasim’s shadows spread out in the forest that was filled with darkness .  Kasim reported back .

-The enemy .  There are more than 300 of them .

“Thieves?”

-No .  They’re the people who attacked Khan .

“ . . . !!”

Immortal! The nonchalant looking Grid rose from his seat .  His face distorted like a demon as he opened the door of the carriage .

Kuweeeeeoh!

Kwaaaaah! 

Clack! Clack clack!

The ground shook as hundreds of red lights appeared in the bushes .  As the dark clouds covering the full moon were lifted, the blue moonlight shone onto the forest and revealed hundreds of unsightly skeletons .  It was a large undead army .  The vanguard contained skeleton knights while the skeleton mages were in the rear .

"Build up a stronger sense of revenge . ”

From far away, a sweet voice was heard in the rear of the undead army .  Grid jumped out of the carriage and saw the white-haired young man .

“Veradin . . . !”

The person who made Khan’s last moments filled with pain .  The target of hatred that Grid killed dozens or even hundreds of times in his head!

“Die!”

Kuwaaaaaang!

Kasim had no time to stop him .  Grid pulled out the Ideal Dagger, used Quick Movements and immediately rushed towards Veradin . He put away the Ideal Dagger and pulled out a weapon .

“Grid! Get him!"

"Kill that bastard!”

Kwaaaaah! 

The necromancers shouted excitedly as they discovered Grid and dozens of skeleton knights blocked Grid’s way .  They wielded huge swords and spears, completely focused on only killing Grid .

Kwa kwang!

Kwa kwa kwa kwang!

The four God Hands transformed into Lifael’s Spear, inflicting catastrophic damage to evil beings and opening the way for Grid .

“Heok . . . !”

“T-This is ridiculous . . . !”

Dozens of skeleton knights over level 250 were turned to ashes at once? The spears also moved without Grid touching them? The astonished necromancers simultaneously thought .

‘The best . . . !’

The necromancers were reminded .  The opponent they were currently trying to hunt was the one who broke the sky .  Grid stormed into the middle of enemy camp and pressed the button of the Pulling Device .

Hwiririk!

Red and black swords appeared in the moonlight, rotating before joining together .

Seokeok!

Puhahahak!

The skeleton knights and necromancers standing in the direction of the rotation were hit .  The Pulling Device combined the two swords into one .  The Enlightenment Sword .

“Veradinnnnnn!”

Kwa kwang! Kwa kwa kwa kwa kwa kwa kwa kwa!

The earth shook .  It felt like the forest would fly away .  Grid rushed through the undead army as four spears rotated around him, reminiscent of someone breaking through the sea .

‘Now he’s just a monster . ’

Grid’s presence rose to the rank of deities .  Veradin wasn’t surprised because he already knew this, but Grid’s presence was beyond the scope that he observed .  Veradin’s tension soared to the peak as Grid narrowed the distance with a fearsome expression .  His legs were shaking .  But Veradin had a smile on his face . It was a smile of satisfaction .

Kwaaaaah! 

Did he believe in the four spears around him?  Or was it because he lost his mind in front of his enemies .  Grid was so focused on Veradin that he was unable to response to the attack of the death knight that suddenly appeared .  

Puok!

The poisonous dagger of Kyleo pierced Grid’s heart .  It was an attack filled with the poison master’s killing power .  It gave a paralysis that couldn’t be resisted to the target and simultaneously reduced the target’s health by 50% . It was Kyleo’s ultimate ability that had a very low chance of causing instantaneous death .

“Now!”

A perfect opportunity to defeat the crazy beast! After confirming that Grid was trapped, Veradin shouted and the skeleton mages simultaneously chanted a prepared spell .

‘I got him!’

47 skeleton mages used magic at the same time .  Veradin was convinced when he saw the explosive magic power .  He had no doubt that Grid would receive huge damage from the magic bombardment and enter the immortality state .  That’s right .  In the midst of the urgent situation, Veradin hadn’t confirmed it yet .

[Death Knight Kyleo has returned to an inactive state . ]

[The target didn’t receive any damage . ]

[The target has resisted the absolute paralysis and poison . ]

These notification windows!

"What?”

Veradin’s face was dismayed as he belatedly checked the notification windows .  Veradin couldn’t understand it .  Kyleo’s dagger had clearly stabbed Grid’s heart . Veradin had seen it with his own eyes .  Yet the attack was for nothing? Grid didn’t receive any damage?

“What is this . . . ? Stop!"

Veradin was upset that things went differently than planned and hurriedly shouted .  But it was too late .  The necromancers commanded their summoned skeleton mages to activate the magic .

Huuuuuuong!

Gravity Boom .  It was advanced black magic available to skeleton mages over level 300 . It was commonly used as the ultimate spell of a skeleton mage .  It modified the gravity of the specified area and slowed down the target, while causing an explosion .  The spell was powerful but the scope was too narrow and the casting time was very long . It was even slower to deploy . It was almost impossible to hit a moving target with Gravity Boom .

That’s why . . .

"M-Moving?”

Grid resisted Kyleo’s paralysis and poison with Khan’s posthumous work Valhalla and avoided Gravity Boom .  Grid took one step towards Veradin .

Kwa kwa kwa kwang!

Two steps .

Peng! Pepepepeong!

Three steps . Every time he got closer, a senseless explosion occurred behind him .  As the forest became a wasteland, Grid used Pagma’s Swordsmanship, Link, to get rid of the skeleton mages as he reached Veradin .

“This is the first time . ” Grid’s voice, full of killing intent, reached Veradin’s eyes .  “You’re going to die for me . ”

This death was just the beginning, not the end .  

Grid declared, "You will keep dying because of me over and over . I will make you suffer more pain than Khan felt . ”

Puk!

Puk puk!

Kyleo kept attacking Grid to protect his master, but it was in vain . He attacked Grid with assassination skills, which were resisted by Khan’s armor .

“You’re crazily overgeared . ”

Veradin said with a silly expression .

"Shut your stinky mouth . ”

Grid didn’t give him a chance to speak . He swung the Enlightenment Sword .  But the sword never reached Veradin’s neck .

Jjeejeeeong!

All of a sudden, a sword flew and blocked the Enlightenment Sword .

“You . . . ?”

Transparent blue hair faded into the moonlight and looked like it was shedding frost .  Grid was puzzled as he grasped the identity of the woman who interfered .

“Mercedes?”

“ . . . ”

The First Knight .  The strongest sword that exercised the will of the empire .  In the end, she was just a tool . She said with a sad expression, “I’m sorry . ”

“Kuk . . . !”

Jjeejeeeong!

Grid’s body rose in the air .  It was because he was hit by Mercedes’s shield that rose at an angle that couldn’t be seen .  It was an overwhelming ‘charge . ’ Grid flew through the air and showed a defenseless appearance .

“Your Majesty!”

Kasim’s voice was heard from behind him .  Kasim and the soldiers were surrounded by several Red Knights . While Grid was blinded by Veradin, Kasim and the soldiers were also fighting .

“Shadow Move . . . !”

Kasim attempted to save Grid . However, his range of movements were greatly reduced due to the moonlight swallowing up the darkness . He couldn’t move long distances and was caught from behind by the Red Knights .

“Ugh!”

“Kasim . . . !”

Grid knew who Kasim was .  Lord’s mentor, friend, and family . It was Kasim who filled the vacant position of ‘father’ for Lord .  Yes, Kasim was like Khan to Lord .

"No . . . !!”

He couldn’t lose Kasim .  Grid forgot the enemies in front of his eyes as he fully focused on Kasim . Grid used Fly and flew to Kasim to save him from the Red Knights .  No, he tried to fly there .  Mercedes was the problem .

Chaaeng! Chaeeeeeng!

She unleashed her sword at the fastest speed that matched Kraugel and pressed Grid .  Mercedes avoided the God Hands swinging Mjolnir after the duration of Item Transformation ended and blocked Grid’s way .  Grid’s confusion disappeared and was replaced with anger .

“You dog . . . ! The emperor . . . ! The emperor ordered you?!!”

The emperor sent Grid off with a smile only to hit him in the back of the head? Mercedes couldn’t carelessly reply to Grid .

Veradin’s voice filled the silence instead .  “If you’re smart then you should’ve thought about it . Do you think I could attack you without any insurance?”

He believed in the strength of the Red Knights and the full moon .  Veradin’s plan was perfect .  Now the only thing left was to kill Overgeared King Grid and announce it .  The Overgeared Kingdom’s wrath would grow bigger and Immortal’s reputation would naturally rise . Agnus would no longer be able to stand by .

Veradin smiled with satisfaction .  He knew that Grid had the three heavenly kings and the Overgeared members that he could summon . But he believed there was no way to stop the 10 Red Knights that included the First Knight, even if all of them were summoned .

‘Please summon your knights . ’

He would kill all the people Grid relied on . The moment that Veradin was rejoicing .

Puoook!

Mercedes’ sword, which boasted a different strength from Lorex, pierced Grid’s abdomen .

“Cough . . . !”

This woman was truly a monster .  She was equal or much better than the seven dukes of the empire .   Grid coughed up blood but he wasn’t worried about his life right now . He cared about Kasim’s finite life .

‘It’s over for Kasim if I die . ’

Lord would be upset .  Grid didn’t want his child to feel such sadness and hatred . Grid could only make one choice .

“Knight . . . Cough! Summoning . . . !”

The strongest power that Grid relied on . The only one with the power to achieve Grid’s desire!

“Piaro!”

“ . . . ?!”

The name buried deep in her chest . Mercedes became blank as she witnessed a man appearing in a pillar of light .
