[Maegu(3)]
A severed arm can be restored.
However, an arm that has disappeared into the beast's stomach cannot be restored.
"Quickly protect the Clan Lord! Injured fall back and Si-hyeong, Cheon-seo, you block the front!"
Noh Eun-ha's arm was cut off.
Not only was the arm of the hero who seemed unbeatable cut off.
People were greatly shocked seeing that arm swallowed like minced meat in the beast's mouth.
The disturbance among Pandora Clan members was even more indescribable.
To think even the consciousness magic was broken....
Even the consciousness magic that Pandora Clan members had painstakingly implemented in the dungeon was easily broken.
Maegu mocked their magic and personally showed them their magic.
Eun-ha and Pandora Clan members who were truly toyed with by the beast couldn't hide their disheartened emotions.
In that situation─.
─Is this how you do it?
Humans are really weak?
You gather many people's wills into one with this insignificant magic?
As if to crush even the will they had desperately protected, Maegu implemented Pandora Clan's consciousness magic.
The red dungeon shook.
The world was covered in flames.
Dark red flames applied debuff effects to people.
Not only that, the power of all their magic decreased, and mana consumption for activating magic greatly increased.
How bland. I thought you were preparing something amazing, but you were only preparing this kind of magic.
Then is this the end of your attempts to resist me?
Don't you have anything stronger?
""""...."""
Maegu giggled.
People couldn't say anything.
In fact, they had poured out their full strength as soon as the battle started.
Yet this was the result.
Even if they managed to wound Maegu, the red dungeon was healing it.
In that process, many people died.
Even people who had tried to turn their backs on those deaths were now gradually crumbling.
Nevertheless─.
─Hundred Flowers Blazing in Chaos
Eun-ha's will was not broken.
In a world of dark red flames.
Red flower petals fluttered.
Those flower petals caressed the hearts of people who had lost their fighting spirit.
"It's okay, noona, Iriya. This much is enough now."
"What do you mean enough.... We've only stopped the bleeding, we couldn't even reattach the arm!"
"That's right, Lord. This is a level that can't be healed without an elixir."
"Where's the time to drink an elixir in this situation?"
Although his right arm had disappeared.
Eun-ha didn't give up.
He disregarded Noh Eun-ah and Iriya's dissuasion.
He stood up in the middle of receiving treatment and grasped Hundred Flowers Blazing in Chaos.
Even without a hand─.
─Sword of Will
He still had mana.
Though mana consumption would be high, he could endure to some extent.
Eun-ha floated Remnant Moon Dawn Star that he had put on the ground while receiving treatment.
Thump thump thump
As if the red dungeon was shaking.
His heart pounded.
Since his right arm was cut off just before, his heart had been beating violently.
Gift <Heroic>
Strength still overflowed.
As long as supporters in the rear restore his internal mana, he can become stronger.
Moreover─.
"─Kang!"
If there's no arm, just make one.
Compared to the life as an <Undead>.
Living as <Cardinal>, he had cultivated much strength.
He could fill in with that.
Spirit Beast Transformation
Liger Blaster
Where the right arm had disappeared.
A blaster appeared there.
Eun-ha grasped Remnant Moon Dawn Star in his left hand and glared at Maegu.
Spirit Beast Transformation
Phoenix Wings
He controls two spirit beasts.
Even that alone was an enormous burden.
But he had to do it.
People's morale was breaking.
To boost their morale, he had to show he was still fine.
Then, as if responding to Eun-ha's thoughts─.
"─Eun-ha, you recover your strength. Until then, we'll block that monster."
In a stance of protecting Eun-ha.
Ryu Yeon-hwa stepped forward.
Cold air swirled around her as she extended her spear horizontally.
Her aura was different.
Besides her, many players stepped forward.
"Compared to the Pandora Clan Lord, just losing one shoulder is getting off lightly. Hey, I'll avenge you. You focus on recovery for now."
"Even if the dungeon helps recovery, there's hope if we attack to the point recovery is impossible. Or kill it until the dungeon's power weakens. Anyway, we need the Pandora Clan Lord's strength to deal damage to that thing, so recover your strength there."
<Yamma> Kang Hyeon-cheol.
<First Sword> Ji Yong-hyeon.
The two advanced to surround Maegu from different directions.
The aura of the two people, including Ryu Yeon-hwa, was extraordinary.
All three were prepared to die, disregarding defense and focusing all their efforts on killing the beast.
Also─.
"─Hey! This hyung has returned alive! Whew, I almost crossed the Jordan River. Don't worry! This hyung will protect you!"
Not only had Jin Pa-rang returned.
Pandora Clan members also stepped forward.
They too exuded their full strength.
It was truly all-out attack.
Except for supporters, guardians, and rangers, people gave up on defending.
Yes, if you want to live, you have to struggle.
But you'll still die.
Maegu cackled mockingly.
☆
<Time Witch> Priscis Memory.
She too was fighting Maegu.
She activated magic from the rear to support people fighting in the front and block Maegu's attacks.
Film Disposal
Tch, you use annoying magic?
You don't die even in my world.
What kind of human are you?
As Noh Eun-ha retreated to the back.
When Ryu Yeon-hwa, Kang Hyeon-cheol, and Ji Yong-hyeon became the center of facing Maegu.
In reality, Priscis Memory had become quite an annoying enemy to the beast.
Her magic had the power to rewind or stop time, or block attacks themselves.
Thanks to this, Maegu's attacks were blocked.
Attacks that barely succeeded became invalid and couldn't deal any damage.
The reason damage to people moving in all-out attack wasn't severe was all because she was there.
Extract
So Maegu didn't want to leave her alone.
Depending on the situation, it tried to dig into the rear to attack her.
But Priscis Memory didn't meekly submit to the beast either.
"That's a shame. If you were a bit faster, you might have caught me."
From when the battle started until now.
Priscis Memory had been passively supporting players.
And she went around the dungeon making traces of where she had been.
By doing so, she was avoiding Maegu's attacks by changing positions as if teleporting using the traces she made.
Tch! Really annoying.
In the end, Maegu had to give up on attacking her.
Instead, the beast ran at an even faster speed to attack players.
Then Priscis Memory's magic was completed even faster.
"This is troublesome. No matter how much we attack, it seems ordinary attacks can't deal much damage...."
She muttered quietly.
The situation wasn't good.
Though players had made thorough preparations reenacting the previous battle, it was completely unexpected that the dungeon would respond so strongly.
Could it be because of the 3rd rank overrank Demon-faced Stingray's skill stone Maegu absorbed last time?
It was unknowable.
But it's clear that among dungeon bosses, Maegu handles the dungeon world the best.
In the dungeon world, the beast was in a position no different from a god.
"In the end, it means it's impossible to defeat unless we somehow resolve the dungeon world first...."
Priscis Memory fell into thought.
What is the way to kill a god?
The answer she knew was one.
Pull that god down from the divine seat.
In other words, separate that god from the ideology or world it reigns over.
It's not impossible to cut the connection between Maegu and this dungeon for a very brief moment.
But Maegu wasn't human.
It was a monster.
Even if we pull the god down from the divine seat, we can't easily kill it.
For humans to kill a monster, they needed that much strength and forces.
We can't win alone.
Or─.
─Only another monster can face a monster.
She glanced to one side.
<Cardinal> Noh Eun-ha.
He whose right arm was cut off was receiving treatment from supporters.
Everyone present was relying on him.
Only Noh Eun-ha could.
The one who could deliver powerful damage to Maegu and break down its body.
She agreed.
Therefore─.
─It's not time to use magic to restore damaged bodies yet.
I have to watch for the opportunity well.
She waited for the moment.
She could recover his wounds anytime if she wanted.
Recovery Rewind.
That magic had the effect of temporarily restoring damaged body parts.
However, to make the effect permanent, the cause that resulted in the body being damaged had to be eliminated.
In this case, it was Maegu.
If Noh Eun-ha just kills Maegu, he can regenerate his right arm again.
Nevertheless, she was hesitating to use the magic.
The reason was simple.
I want to restore the lost arm right away, but once restored, I can't use the magic repeatedly on the Pandora Clan Lord.
The arm was restored.
After that, if he loses another body part?
Though the result is different, magic that eliminates results for overlapping causes on the same target can only be used once.
So it can't be used carelessly.
Moreover, Noh Eun-ha immediately substituted the lost arm with a spirit beast.
It meant it wasn't time for her to step up yet.
Furthermore─.
─I have to be careful using Turn Back the Clock which returns the body state to one day ago too.
Magic that can return physical strength and mana to the state of one day ago.
That magic also had to be timed.
The two magics had to be used at the most important moment.
"So I wish he'd show something quickly...."
Whether we can kill Maegu or not.
That choice is entirely up to Noh Eun-ha.
She vaguely believed.
☆
The players were desperate.
They hadn't given up hope yet.
There was <First Sword>.
There was <Yamma>.
And there was <Snow Spear>.
Lastly, there was <Cardinal> who had become their mental pillar at some point.
Meteor Shower
So as long as they don't crumble.
Players could endure.
Also, people who knew Noh Eun-ha believed in his potential.
Noh Eun-ha can win.
It was a vague belief.
There was no basis.
Nevertheless, Hoshimiya Kaede believed without doubt.
She drew her bow.
Zodiac
A bow made with Hephaestus' Furnace.
Kaede activated the magic imbued in the device.
An arrow made of mana was created, and the arrow emitted golden light.
The wind gathered at the arrow tip fiercely swirled in a spiral.
Shhhhhhh!!
At the same time, dozens of whirlwinds were created around her.
Wind spears in a similar form to the arrow nocked on the bowstring.
She released the bowstring.
The golden whirlwind flew towards Maegu who was facing Ryu Yeon-hwa.
This measly arrow...huh?
Maegu avoided the arrow disdainfully.
Then the arrow changed direction.
As if it had gained will.
Dozens of whirlwinds were rushing only at Maegu.
The violent whirlwinds finally caught Maegu and bit into it.
Kuk, you're an annoying one too?
Maegu's tails moved.
The wind was easily torn.
The beast immediately rushed at her.
She couldn't block it.
The beast's speed was too fast.
Kaede quickly took a defensive stance.
She couldn't avoid the collision.
And─.
─Gift <Environment Sensing>
She sharpened her senses.
The instant Maegu's tails rushed in, she unhesitatingly discarded her bow and took out her tonfa instead.
Kaede who brushed off the tails with her tonfa planted an attack in Maegu's face.
Wind Barrage
The beast probably didn't expect it.
Its eyes shook greatly hit by the attack that came in quickly.
Eventually Kaede quickly retreated while Han Chang-jin was holding Maegu's shadow.
Then she moved her hands.
Zodiac
Like Eun-ha controlling a sword of will.
The bow that left Kaede's hands was floating in the air.
The bowstring connected to her mana was automatically drawn.
The golden whirlwind targeted Maegu.
Though there were fewer whirlwinds than before, Zodiac's magic didn't miss Maegu.
Of course, it ignores defense.
Magic that unconditionally deals damage to the designated target.
Kaede raised the corners of her mouth.
This...!!
Of course Maegu was angry.
Maegu who broke free from Han Chang-jin's restraint stubbornly rushed at Kaede.
[Clap! Clap! Fox, fox, what are you doing? Want to play in the water with me?]
It was right then.
Telepathy was transmitted.
Maegu's movements changed for a moment.
It avoided streams of water flying from the side.
The water shower didn't end there.
Several streams of water attacked the beast and eventually forced it to retreat to the edge of the dungeon.
"Tch, not even one hit."
<Mermaid> Ariel.
She who was in a floating fish tank puffed her cheeks.
Then as if it didn't matter, she swung her trident excitedly.
Triton Spear
A device that can freely handle streams of water.
She fully joined the battle and changed the war situation.
Han Mae-ryu Ultimate Technique
Dragon Scale
Ariel's magic especially matched well with Ryu Yeon-hwa's magic.
Scattered water droplets froze sharply and rushed at Maegu.
The beast couldn't read the meandering streams of water.
Moreover, Ryu Yeon-hwa's power irregularly froze the water streams.
Nevertheless, though cornered, Maegu didn't lose its composure.
This is quite fun?
But what to do?
As long as you exist in my world, you'll only get more tired.
Maegu grinned.
On the other hand, deep fatigue was cast on the players' faces.
It couldn't be helped.
The dark red flames Maegu had bloomed in the dungeon were interfering with players' mana circulation.
They can't use ambient mana.
Players had to fight the beast purely with their own mana.
As time passed, the war situation only flowed more unfavorably for them.
"─Don't be ridiculous."
But even so.
They couldn't retreat.
They couldn't despair.
The moment they give up, only death awaits.
So they had to grasp even the faintest hope like clutching at straws.
Blast Cross
Eun-ha knew that well.
There was no 'next'.
All they had was right now, this moment.
The future was something that would happen later.
To obtain that future.
Paradoxically, they had to focus only on the present and move forward.
Hmm, fully recovered?
"<Time Witch>."
"Yes, Pandora Clan Lord."
"Please restore my arm."
"Is that really okay? If you accidentally take other damage..."
"We'll think about that when it happens. Now isn't the time for that. We have to do anything to turn this situation around now."
"...You're right. Okay, fine."
Recovery Rewind
Eun-ha reverted Kang.
A huge liger appeared beside him and growled at Maegu.
As if it would bite the beast at any moment when his order falls.
At that moment, the disappeared right arm was created.
Yes, are you going to try again?
Come on.
How will you struggle this time?
Hundred Flowers Blazing in Chaos in his right hand.
Remnant Moon Dawn Star in his left hand.
The two sword blades flashed.
That stimulates Maegu's curiosity.
Thump thump thump
Eun-ha walked towards the battlefield.
Players unknowingly made way for him.
Pandora Clan members were following behind him before they knew it.
Thump thump thump
His heart shook greatly.
The sound resonating his body like a resonance chamber soon spread throughout the entire dungeon.
Thump thump thump
A sound impossible for one person.
It was possible because the hearts of people who followed Eun-ha were beating too.
You, did you get stronger again in the meantime?
What? What?
What on earth did you realize?
"Shut up."
As if connecting passes with spirit beasts.
At that moment, Eun-ha could feel something connecting with clan members.
Something that could be called a bond.
Eun-ha focused on that sensation.
He ignored the beast's thoughts that were noisily chattering.
And so he entrusted himself to the sensation of clan members' emotions flowing into him.
This is─.
─Gift <He...
No.
Eun-ha raised the corners of his mouth.
It's not <Heroic>.
It's not <Berserk> either.
This is─.
─Gift <Brave>
