Black magicians suddenly appeared on the battlefield and changed the status of the battlefield .  The monsters that the black magicians brought weren’t contaminated by black magic, but they only existed in the Demon World .  The undead created by the black magicians were also completely different .  They weren’t the low-grade undead but powerful ones such as the dullahan and various giant skeletons .

“Back away to the walls! Keep your formation!!”

The paladin Dahan and Knight Commander Brown felt uneasy as they gave orders .

“Sir Dahan, I think the battle has changed . ”

“I don’t think the normal soldiers can help anymore . The black magic energy I’m feeling is considerable . ”

They tried to calmly grasp the situation, but this didn’t mean they did not feel anxious .  It had been quite a long time since the black magicians launched such a large force, which had been the last time they were born .

“However, there are priests including the high priest . Won’t it work out?’

Dahan shook his head at Brown’s optimistic words .  Brown could say this because he didn’t feel the mighty black magic energy .

‘Those present in Brigs’ temple alone can’t wipe out all these black magicians . ’

“No, it will be hard to win even if our temple has the upper hand . ”

In addition to the leader who had powerful black magic, many of them appeared to be high ranking black magicians to Dahan .  At first glance, their skills were considerable .

“Huh?”

It was at this moment that a dark energy reminiscent of black magic energy poured out from the walls .  The solid magic power flew like a light toward the black magicians .

“Use defensive magic!” One of the black magicians shouted after seeing the pure energy that contained an eerie momentum .  Immediately, black clouds sprang up in front of them .  It was the defensive magic of the black magicians, Cloud Barrier .  The dark crescent started to cut through the clouds .  However, the clouds were too dark, and it wasn’t long before the crescent moon was buried in them .

The man suspected of being the master of the pure energy jumped from the wall .  Dahan found the man’s clean landing on the ground quite impressive .

‘Such a feat!’

Just then, a scream emerged from the mouth of Brown next to him, “Viscount!”

‘Viscount’ was a word that was familiar to Dahan .  It referred to the fourth t.i.tle in the distinguished merits rankings .  However, the weight of this t.i.tle wasn’t simple if the target was this man .  The ident.i.ty of the man was the only disciple of Duke Lebron, the best knight of the empire .  He was also an adventurer .

“Is that person called Gang Hyeonu a viscount?”

“Yes . He is the only disciple of Duke Lebron . ”

‘He is worthy of being his master’s disciple . His pure energy is powerful . I can’t believe he is an adventurer . ’

Dahan was thinking this when Brown started to speak again .

“We can’t just be like this either . I think all the knights should resume the battle . . . ”

“I will tell the priests to bless them . They are to enter the battle as soon as they are blessed . ”

Hyeonu stared at the black magicians in front of him .

“Are you the lord of this place? Did you get the emperor’s favor? Otherwise, it wouldn’t be easy to push the original lord out . It’s amazing,” the old black magician in the lead said . Then he continued, “The rebellion has already failed . Don’t you know this?”

The words were out of the blue, but Hyeonu listened in silence .  In any case, it was to his advantage to buy time .  The paladins would kill the monsters and eventually deal with the black magicians .  Until then, he needed to deal with this magician without overdoing it .

The black magician continued, “Do you know why I’m here? There is only one reason . . . I have a formal disciple, but I don’t like them . They are an adventurer . . . In any case, the reason I came here was to get revenge for another disciple . He was a good person . I raised him since he was a newborn child, so it was a strong feeling of kins.h.i.+p rather than him being a disciple . Yes, it is the affection of being blood . ”

Just then, the unknown black magician’s face distorted, and he started to emit a powerful black magic energy .

Full of desire for revenge, his face was like that of a demon .

‘Is he that guy?’ Hyeonu seemed to know the ident.i.ty of the unknown magician’s disciple .

“By the way, that disciple is dead . It was a few months ago . It was so futile . Now do you know why I’m here?” 

The unknown magician’s description meant one thing .

Hyeonu replied to the magician’s question calmly, “Is it . . . for revenge?”

“I didn’t pour alcohol on his grave, so I have to pour it now . ”

It was clear that the liquid would be the blood of Brigs’ NPCs .

“Can I ask for the name of your disciple?” Hyeonu asked carefully .  He had a vague guess about what it was .

“Adele . His name was Adele . ”

The moment he mentioned the name of the disciple, a smile appeared on the face of the old magician .  The rather demonic black magic energy disappeared .  As the old magician thought of his disciple, his anger faded away and he was filled with a sense of calm .

‘It was that guy . ’

The novice black magician, Adele, was the master of the dungeon Hyeonu, Yuri, and Yeongjun cleared . He was also the owner of a giant owlbear called Pepe .

“I see . . . ”

The unknown magician felt there was something strange about Hyeonu’s answer and started to question Hyeonu as it seemed like Hyeonu knew his disciple .  “Do you know him? Or . . . ”

Hyeonu didn’t answer .  There was no need to .

Instead, he walked slowly to the old black magician .  “Who knows . . . It is a familiar name . . . I’m not sure . ”

Come to think of it, this old magician’s voice was also familiar .  The ident.i.ty of the old magician was Felion, who had been in the rebel camp of Lipa Castle that Hyeonu infiltrated in the past .

“It is hard to hear the answer in this state . I’m really curious about how long you can keep your mouth shut . ” As Felion spoke, black smoke billowed from his back .  The ident.i.ty of the smoke was black magic energy .  In some ways, it looked darker than Edward’s .

‘He will be a good opponent . ’

He was as powerful as Edward, who was the scenario boss .  Just based on strength, Edward could be called the public boss while Felion was the hidden boss .  After the third cla.s.s advancement, Hyeonu had never fought with all his skills and buffs .  This battle was a great opportunity for Hyeonu to learn about his limitations .

“Then open my mouth yourself . It won’t be easy though . ”

Hyeonu pulled out Dark Star .  Then Hyeonu’s various buffs were demonstrated .

[Master of Combat is activated . ]

[Your stats have increased . ]

[The stat ‘fighting energy’ has caused your stats to rise . ]

[The other party is stronger than you . ]

[Your stats have increased . ]

[The stat ‘dignity’ has caused the opponent’s stats to fall . ]

[Mindset of a Murderer has activated . ]

[All stats have increased by 15% . ]

The beginning was light .  He didn’t use the giant skills nor did he use One Who Yearns that was attached to his new item, Kallu’s Desire .  There were only Yuri’s buffs, Tang-E’s buffs, and his own buffs .  Of course, these alone were enough buffs .

Hyeonu naturally swung Dark Star without moving one step .  The sword moved fluidly, and the black pure energy revealed its presence .  Felion naturally created a s.h.i.+eld when he saw the pure energy that stretched toward him .  He had already figured out from his previous experience how much magic power to use .

‘I’ve seen this technique before . ’

It was a technique that operated magic power naturally, utilising a strong pure energy that appeared like a ghost .

‘Lebron . ’ Felion’s speculation burst from his mind and into his mouth, “What is your relations.h.i.+p with Lebron?”

While ignoring Felion’s words, Hyeonu carried on swinging his sword, and pure energy continued to emerge from it .  He launched some strong attacks using pure energy as well as the usage of Heavy Blow and Magic Power Explosion .

“Kuek,” Felion groaned at the pure energy that was stronger than before .  There was no time to be angry about his words being ignored .  The young knight’s sword slashed at him .

‘This can’t continue . ’

In any case, Felion’s style wasn’t such a confrontation .  Although he was confident in a confrontation, his specialty was to use black magic to fight .

“Pipi,” Felion called out someone’s name .  Then a giant magic circle appeared before him .  The magic circle endlessly sucked up the black smoke surrounding Felion’s body .  Soon, a three-meter-tall undead appeared in the dark yet s.h.i.+ning magic circle .  It was a knight in armor on a ghost horse .  This was the brilliant appearance of a death knight .

“Death knight . . . ” Hyeonu frowned when he saw the death knight that appeared from the magic circle .  He had expected a fairly strong undead to be summoned, but he never imagined that a death knight would emerge .  While Hyeonu was astonished to see the death knight, Felion started to place all types of buffs on the death knight .  It started from Haste, which sped up basic movements, to Strength, which increased his strength stat . There was also Drain Health, which restored the death knight’s health through Felion’s own black magic energy .  So far, it was the buff magic that the death knight had given him .

Then it was time to use debuffs and curse magic on Hyeonu .  Felion used that magic that hadn’t been possible under Hyeonu’s incessant attacks .

“Grudge of the Dead, Frozen Soul, Magic Power Split . ”

These limited movements, prevented physical recovery, and made the use of magic power unnatural .

They were three types of curse magic .

‘This is my specialty . ’

Felion used curse magic and smiled warmly as he imagined Hyeonu stagger .

Hyeonu was perplexed by the messages that suddenly came up .

[The curse magic, ‘Grudge of the Dead’, has been used . ]

[Grudge of the Dead has been ignored under the influence of fighting energy . ]

[The curse magic, ‘Frozen Soul’, has been used . ]

[Frozen Soul has been ignored under the influence of fighting energy . ]

[The curse magic, ‘Magic Power Split’, has been used . ]

[Magic Power Split has been ignored under the influence of Immovable Heart . ]

“Debuffs?”

Hyeonu succeeded in resisting the previous two spells with his fighting energy stat, but the last curse, Magic Power Split, couldn’t be resisted with fighting energy .  Fortunately, he succeeded in resisting it using Immovable Heart, a skill he obtained as a reward for clearing Laek’s 9th stage .

[Immovable Heart]

[You possess an unwavering heart .

A disciplined mind rules the body .

Type: Continuous

Rating: Unique

Skill Proficiency: F

 You will be immune to an opponent’s abnormal condition skill in a situation where the opponent’s magic power value is lower than yours .  There is a 5% chance of resisting an opponent’s abnormal condition skill in a situation where the opponent’s magic power value is higher than yours . ]

No matter how high Hyeonu’s magic power was, it was only high in comparison to players of the same level .  In comparison to an NPC, especially a high ranking black magician, Hyeonu’s magic power value was definitely low .  This was normal .  In other words, Hyeonu activated it through the 5% probability .

“What type of magic did you use? My body feels ticklish . ” Hyeonu laughed at Felion while tapping on his brightly smiling child’s mask .
