Raided The God’S Warehouse [EN]: Chapter 304

I fire the crossbow at Outer.

The bolt with the rope attached shoots out powerfully, but only for a moment. The bolt loses its strength before it even reaches Outer and falls to the ground.

“Kee-aaaaah!”

Outer, who has swallowed the Demon of Gluttony, shatters the sky and begins to reveal its true form.

Overwhelming size and overwhelming pressure.

An instinctive fear rises from the depths of my heart because of the overwhelming pressure that no human would dare to face.

Thud!

A black liquid fell in front of Se-un’s eyes.

It was just a drop of Outer that had flowed down from the sky, but its size was comparable to the amount of Outer Se-un had seen when he smashed the meteorite.

“No!”

Resisting the instinct to run away immediately, Se-un wielded his kukri [a curved knife or dagger originating in South Asia].

The kukri’s blade, which was quite sharp, dulled as it cut Outer, but it did not inflict any meaningful damage.

Outer crawled towards Se-un as if asking what had happened.

– What is this…….

Outer wasn’t the only one who appeared from the sky.

“Block them!”

“How dare these trash destroy our Olympus!”

“Everyone, calm down! They are not enemies that can be defeated by recklessly charging at them!”

The Transcenders, known as Constellations [powerful, god-like beings], who are said to be located at the top of the Tower and protect the Players, appeared to block Outer.

Among them, there were also named Constellations whose identities could be recognized at a glance.

Ares, the God of War, covers his body with a shield and rushes forward with a sharp spear.

The fluttering cloak drew a long trajectory, as if a meteor was flying.

“The sin of daring to defile my mother with such trash! I will bury you myself!”

Stab!

The divine weapon fearlessly penetrates Outer’s body. However, the result was disastrous.

“Lord Ares!”

“W, what is this!”

As the God of War, Ares’ power is among the highest in the Twelve Gods of Olympus.

Outer simply accepted Ares’ attack calmly.

To make matters worse, it was stubbornly swallowing the spear without letting go.

“Lord Ares, drop the spear!”

“Do you think I would succumb to this trash! If I don’t have a spear, I’ll use a sword! If I don’t have a sword, I’ll just punch it!”

Stab, stab, stab!

Ares’ attack did not stop.

It was truly a simple and ignorant attack, but perhaps those who survived that attack could be counted on one hand, even across all dimensions.

However, the opponent of the attack was not good.

Each time Ares swung his fist, Ares’ body sank deeper and deeper as if it were sinking into a swamp.

“Lord Ares!”

“This trash! How dare trash! How dare you!”

Glug-

Eventually, Ares’ entire body was eaten by Outer and disappeared.

A silence followed.

And after a while, a huge explosion occurred inside Outer’s body.

“As expected, it’s Lord Ares! He even went inside on purpose…….”

The hopeful voice was cut short.

The explosion occurred, but the swelling Outer reduced in size again like a deflated balloon.

Once again, silence ensued.

Ares’ divinity, which had been eaten by Outer and disappeared, could not be felt anywhere.

“L, Lord Ares!”

“Attack! We have to save Lord Ares!”

“There are too many!”

Outer is not pushed back even by the Constellations’ attacks.

In the meantime, for some reason, Outer, who had swallowed the Demon of Gluttony, was not interested in the Constellations and was silently approaching Se-un.

The sky was half-destroyed, and eventually its huge body was completely revealed and fell in front of Se-un with a thud.

“Glug, kee-uhh-”

– The Olympus guys are being defeated. No, that can’t be. It can’t be…….

Outer slowly approaches Se-un, gurgling black liquid.

Se-un bites his lip tightly until it bursts and tightly grips his kukri.

“Aaaaaah!”

There was no mental capacity to use martial arts.

His mind was consumed by fear, and he was only able to hold on to avoid running away.

Slash.

The kukri cut Outer’s body, but this time as well. Outer’s body wriggled and regenerated again, and Se-un’s body, hit by the swung forefoot, flew far away and rolled on the floor.

“Glug, glug-”

He couldn’t muster any strength in his body.

As if all the bones in his body were broken, his body would not move no matter how hard he tried. He planted the kukri in front of him and dragged his body forward with difficulty.

“Kee, aaaaah-”

Outer, who had come right in front of Se-un, opens its mouth.

Black liquid dripped all around, and a shadow formed over Se-un.

In the worst situation where there was not even a speck of hope, Se-un once again screamed.

And at that moment.

– You must have had a hard time too.

Faaaaat!

The fear of his whole body spread out in all directions as if it had taken shape.

The huge figure of Outer, which had covered the sky, stood still as if time had stopped, and a purple spirit appeared in front of Se-un, fluttering its wide wings.

– I think I like you too.

Purple Spirit.

The wings of Tyurik, the Spirit of Fear, wrapped around Se-un.

Se-un, who regained his senses, put down his kukri and grabbed something from his empty waist.

He lunged forward with his right foot and thrust straight at Outer.

– The Blood Wolf Claw, the first move of the Blood Wolf Sword Technique, is enhanced through internal energy.

– The power of the martial art is enhanced according to the mysteries of the Supreme Demonic Art.

The first move of the Blood Wolf Sword Technique, the Blood Wolf Claw, which he had used so often that it had become as familiar as using a spoon.

The simple stab pierced Outer’s uvula.

Boom!

Outer’s body, which had not been affected by any attack, exploded as if it were a lie.

Black liquid splattered everywhere, and the eyes of everyone around were focused on Se-un.

– So, you don’t have to be afraid. You don’t have to tremble.

“I see…….”

Se-un muttered with his head bowed as he regained his reason.

Then, he reached into his pocket and found something.

As expected, there was nothing in Se-un’s pocket, but he could feel something hard in the palm of his hand.

Yumongseok (Pleasant Dream Stone) [a stone that embodies the essence of dreams].

The stone he received from Liver as a reward appeared in Se-un’s hand.

– I’ll embrace all the scary things.

Flutter!

Tyurik’s body scattered and became wings behind Se-un’s back.

Purple wings, incomparably larger and more beautiful than Icarus’ wings.

Like the wings that Mammon displayed when he manifested, elegant yet imposing wings embraced the fear of all directions.

“It was a dream.”

Crack!

When he put strength into the Yumongseok, the background surrounding Se-un was completely distorted.

The Players, the Constellations, and the Outer who dominated the sky all scattered like illusions.

That’s right.

A dream.

From some point on, not only Se-un’s surroundings but even his mind was stained with dreams.

The distorted world completely melted away, and the earth surrounded by tornadoes came into view.

It seemed that he had fallen into that unpleasant dream just before entering this passage.

And when Se-un raised his head, the person who had given Se-un the nightmare was making a shocked expression.

* * *

Belphegor’s butler, McKinsey.

His ability, which had reigned as the best dream demon in the Demon World, was simple.

It was to show the enemy a nightmare.

It wasn’t just showing scary things like low-level dream demons, but the ability to draw out the true fear hidden deep within the enemy’s heart and recreate it as a nightmare.

‘He finally made it up here. How presumptuous.’

Liver was clearly guarding the Labyrinth of Fire.

Liver, who was performing his punishment, could not lose as a Great Demon, even if it was difficult to win, was breached.

Judging from the fact that the temperature was constantly maintained, he was not even defeated.

The intruder, who had passed through the Labyrinth of Fire, arrived at his destination and entered through the tornado even in the Labyrinth of Wind, where the path to the exit itself had been destroyed.

‘He’s just a human after all. I wonder how long he can last in the face of a true nightmare.’

The moment Se-un headed for the passage, McKinsey used the power that had made him the best dream demon in the Demon World.

Humans had more mental strength than he thought, but in the end, they could not reject his nightmare.

It was a power he had used in a long time, and McKinsey, wondering how long a human would last in a nightmare, was soon shocked as he spied on the dream.

‘What is this……!’

An unidentified black liquid broke through the ceiling of the Tower and flowed down.

The proud Constellations of Olympus were unable to resist properly and were being subdued by the black liquid and collapsing.

It was truly the end of the world.

It would be okay if this was all an illusion, but McKinsey could tell.

This nightmare was not just a dream or an illusion, but something that the human had actually experienced.

‘That’s impossible!’

The Tower has never collapsed. The Constellations of Olympus are also fine.

However, the human’s nightmare was clearly predicting the end of the Tower.

It was his own ability, so he couldn’t help but believe it.

What was even more amazing was the human’s reaction that followed.

“I see…….”

The human is aware of the nightmare.

He takes out his sword from his nightmare, which even demons cannot escape from, and bursts the black liquid.

“It was a dream.”

Crack!

He shatters the nightmare that he, the best dream demon in the Demon World, had directly instilled.

He used the Yumongseok, which could be said to be the essence of dreams collected by the Great Demon, but in the first place, it was an almost impossible act to take out the Yumongseok in a nightmare.

He simply thought he was a lost, skilled young man. However, his thoughts have completely changed.

McKinsey, who trusted his power more than anyone else, was able to quickly guess the human’s identity.

“Are you…… a Regressor(回歸者) [a person who has returned from the future]?”

* * *

Se-un was not fully conscious as he had just escaped from the dream, but as soon as he recognized the enemy’s presence, he straightened his posture and took out Durandhal.

The pressure he felt was on a different level from the enemies he had faced so far.

It couldn’t even be compared to Liver, whom he had faced in the Labyrinth of Fire.

To be exact…… yes, a Constellation. No, it could be said that he had reached the level of a Constellation.

‘The energy I feel in this place is greater than Pan or Triton.’

Pan and Triton.

Both of them had risen to the position of Constellation, but their divinity had rapidly decreased because they had violated the rules and manifested in the Tower.

However, the demon in front of him was not like that.

In the first place, he was not a Constellation, so there were few restrictions in the Tower, and he had been here for quite some time, so he possessed almost all of his original power.

He was holding Durandhal, but honestly, he felt that he had almost no chance of winning against this opponent.

‘I have to persuade him.’

The opponent is clearly one of the Sloth’s subordinates.

There is no need to fight unnecessarily.

In any case, he had to go through him to meet Belphegor.

However, the other party spoke first.

“Are you…… a Regressor(回歸者) [a person who has returned from the future]?”

How did he find out?

The answer is simple. It is clear that the demon was also watching the nightmare that Se-un had just had.

He was lost in thought for a moment, but this made it easier to persuade him.

“That’s right.”

“…….”
