Chapter 103: Episode 103

The ends of Ethan’s hands shook like crazy, and it became harder for him to breathe properly.

With a bright red face, Ethan attempted to breathe.

He stared back at Min Sung, but his eyes slowly went down.

“I-I’m sorry.”

In response, Min Sung hit Ethan on the shoulder and passed him.

Although it was just a shoulder bump, Ethan’s face turned pale.

“Master, are you all right?”

His underling worried about Ethan’s well-being.

While Min Sung walked toward the tower, hundreds of hunters split up.

Ethan watched Min Sung walk toward the tower as he gulped.

“Have the investigative team follow the Korean hunters and confirm their identities.”

***

Ji Yoo Kim tried to follow Min Sung to the Black Tower, but Min Sung refused.

“Stop acting like a little kid. You’ll just get in the way.”

In response, Ji Yoo Kim stayed silent and dropped her head.

Ho Sung Lee was impressed by Min Sung.

A hunter dominating the entire world.

He made Ethan surrender with just a gaze.

Ho Sung Lee laughed bitterly.

‘But then again… he’s the guy who cleared the Black Tower all by himself.’

Ho Sung Lee clicked his tongue and followed Min Sung.

Would they be able to come out of the tower alive?

Unlike Ji Yoo Kim, who wanted to go, Ho Sung Lee worried about his death.

***

As for the captain of the investigative team, it was Mike, who first searched the tower in the beginning.

Since most of the American hunters had died, they needed help from other countries.

Captain Mike took the volunteer hunters and got in the boat headed back to the tower.

On the boat, Mike looked at Min Sung Kang and Ho Sung Lee in front of him and showed an expressed look on his face.

“Why is the boat completely fine?”

He looked at the boat that Min Sung and Ho Sung Lee were in and looked confused.

The waves became rougher as they got closer to the tower.

But strangely, the boat that Min Sung and Ho Sung Lee were in proceeded peacefully without any shaking.

They had already passed the point where they should have abandoned their boats.

But theirs was just fine.

On the other hand, the investigation team’s boat shook like a Viking’s.

“This is the place. Abandon the boat,” Mike ordered.

The hunters looked at Min Sung and Ho Sung Lee’s boat and then dove into the ocean.

In the meantime, Min Sung and Ho Sung Lee were already entering the tower.

While the investigation team swam, they stared at Min Sung and Ho Sung Lee blankly.

***

Since they had to swim, the hunters of other countries arrived much later than Min Sung and Ho Sung Lee.

For that reason, when they arrived at the first floor, they couldn’t find Min Sung or Ho Sung Lee.

They had already strayed too far.

Since the 10 investigators had already experienced the horror of the tower, they cautiously conducted their investigation.

Each step they took was filled with fear.

Every time they took a step, they saw the bodies of a hunter.

The investigation team mustered up their courage and kept going.

But no matter how much they searched, they didn’t see the monster.

The 1st floor was empty.

And as soon as they discovered that the entrance to the 2nd floor was empty, they felt a shiver up their spine.

“The door to the 2nd floor is really open…”

Mike looked at the entrance and gulped.

“Did they go upstairs through this entrance?”

He looked back at the other members and then went up to the 2nd floor together.

And as soon as they saw the sight, their faces turned pale.

The reason why they were shocked was because they saw a dead monster.

The remains were still there.

The walls and floors were covered in the monster’s blood, and all sorts of body parts were scattered everywhere.

Just the thought of this being the result of that man’s doing made their heads feel dizzy.

The hunter holding a camera filmed every single thing.

Mike looked at a place that Min Sung would have passed.

He looked behind him.

He heard the voices of the underlings he left behind.

He closed his eyes with a frown.

***

Thud, thud, thud, thud, thud.

Thud, thud, thud, thud!

Thud, thud, thud, thud, thud, thud, thud, thud!

The floors shook like crazy.

And then dozens of devils appeared from the dark hallway.

“Gasp!”

“Gasp!”

Both Ho Sung Lee and Bowl gasped at each other.

“Finally.”

Min Sung looked at the devils and opened his eyes wide.

Min Sung lifted his Orichalcum Sword.

Swooshhhhhh!

Along with the sound of the thunder, a white light came out of it.

The magic bent out of shape and wriggled as if it discovered its nature.

In response, Ho Sung Lee and Bowl were unable to breathe properly.

In the meantime, they charged toward Min Sung as if they were given an order.

The light from the Orichalcum Sword hit the devils while the dark magic of the devils poured upon Min Sung.

Bangggggg, bangggggg!

The tower shook along with the sound of dynamite exploding.

Meanwhile, Ho Sung Lee and Bowl cowered and waited for the battle to end.

***

“… What was that sound?”

In response to the loud sound, the hunters looked up and paused.

The sound stopped for a while and then a stronger sound penetrated through the wall.

“I think the fight has begun,” one underling said.

Mike gulped at the sound he heard from above.

The members looked at him and waited for his response.

“Shall we go up?”

One of the underlings asked Mike.

Mike continued to look up and knitted his brows.

“Our duty is to check if he really cleared the floors. Find the stairs to the 3rd floor. I’m sure the 2nd floor is cleared just like the 1st floor. We need to get up to the 3rd floor as soon as possible!”

Captain Mike shouted at his team.

In response to the command, the members split up.

***

The devil opened his mouth.

And from his mouth poured out smoke.

A black spoke that was capable of melting human flesh.

Min Sung went through that smoke and stabbed the devil with his Orchalcum Sword.

Slash!

As soon as he slashed him in the head, the devil’s head exploded.

Min Sung proceeded to his next devil target.

The Orichalcum Sword showed off more light, and that light cut the devil’s body in two.

Its blood poured all over the floor.

Min Sung stared at the devils with zombie-like eyes and hit the Orichalcum Sword on the ground.

Crackkkkkk!

As the floor cracked, the magic flowed to the devils and shot them like arrows.

The magic light went right through the devils’ heads and bodies.

As a result, the other devils stopped in their tracks and backed off.

***

“… W-what’s going on here?”

Mike’s lips trembled at the sight of the 3rd floor.

Same went for the shocked hunters.

Once they saw the amount of blood on the 3rd floor, they were at a loss for words.

They weren’t sure if this was reality or a dream.

The hunters felt oppressed in the blood-filled place.

“Shouldn’t we go back?”

The vice-captain of the investigation team asked.

In response, Mike went into deep thought and then shook his head.

“We have to finish checking. We have yet to fully confirm if those two men really cleared the tower. Let’s go.”

In response, the hunters followed him with nervous looks on their faces.

***

They thought they could catch up to them since they were probably in the middle of battle.

But they were unable to find the two hunters.

However, they were able to clearly hear a fight going on.

The investigation team slowly traced that sound.

But they didn’t rush.

After all, if a monster happened to pop out, they were as good as dead.

They were more careful than ever before.

And after around 10 minutes, the team was able to spot Min Sung Kang and Ho Sung Lee.

As soon as they spotted them, they froze in place.

Although they were seeing it with their own eyes, they couldn’t believe it.

All the hunters almost got killed because of one devil.

But the man in front of them fought the devils… killed them, or more like annihilated them.

“Roarrrrrrrrr!”

The devils screeched as they died.

Just the sound of it gave them goosebumps.

The sight of Min Sung pulling out a sword and moving at high speed to strike every single devil was a spectacle.

The hunters looked on as if it was a dream with their jaws dropped.

They were at a loss for words.

The way he ripped out their hearts, made them explode and cut the devils as if they were tofu made it hard to believe he was human.

The investigation team knew just how strong the devils were.

For that reason, they shivered at Min Sung Kang’s power.

***

Min Sung took out a towel from his item window and wiped off the blood.

The smell of devil blood was strong and prudent.

And it was sticky as well.

In the Demonic Realm, he had no time to wipe off the blood, so this made him realize that he really was back in the human world.

He threw away his bloody towel and looked behind him.

There were around 10 foreigners staring blankly at him.

Among them were Ho Sung Lee and Bowl.

When Min Sung glared at them, Ho Sung Lee and Min Sung ran over. They picked up the items, and Bowl ran back into his pocket.

Min Sung glanced at the hunters for just a moment and then proceeded to walk forward.
