Chapter 385
“Stop right there, you damned bastard!” Ulcera shouted.
“Fuck off!” Siegfried responded by cursing while rushing over to the ‘Dimensional Communication Device-002’.
“Stop! What are you doing?!” Ulcera shouted, but he knew exactly why Siegfried was running toward the Dimensional Communication Device-002.
Ulcera could tell that he was probably going to destroy the ‘Dimensional Communication Device-002’ as a last-ditch effort before he died.
“It’s futile!” Ulcera shouted as he caught up to and blocked his path.
He lunged at Siegfried and shouted, “DIE!”
Siegfried transformed Horse Fly into a shield and bashed Ulcera out of the way.
“I said fuck off!”
Bam! Whoosh!
Ulcera flew quite a distance after getting shoved, but unfortunately, he did not fall off the rooftop like some of the Chaos Guardians did.
Thud!
He managed to hold onto the ledge just before he fell off of it.
However, Siegfried was not disappointed.
‘Alright!’ He was satisfied by the fact that he managed to buy enough time.
He ran as fast as he could toward the Dimensional Communication Device-002, but destroying it was not his intention. In the first place, he did not have to run if his goal was to destroy the device.
Why?
Because he could have used Splitting Heaven and Earth to kill every single one of the followers and destroy the Dimensional Communication Device-002.
Siegfried’s plan was far grander than that. He was aiming to kill two birds with one stone. He jumped into the midst of the followers and started swinging Horse Fly like a madman.
Bam! Bam! Pukeok!
Then, the dozens of followers had their heads smashed open one by one.
[Alert: You have absorbed HP!]
[Alert: You have absorbed HP!]
[Alert: You have absorbed HP!]
[Alert: You have absorbed HP!]
[Alert: You have absorbed HP!]
Siegfried’s HP gauge started filling up.
[Alert: Your character is no longer afflicted by Bleeding!]
The wound on his back started healing as he absorbed more HP, and the bleeding stopped once he had absorbed enough HP to close the wound.
Siegfried prioritized his survival over destroying the Dimensional Communication Device-002.
“Phew! I thought I was a goner!” He let out a sigh of relief after the suspense was over. It was truly a gut-wrenching moment when he barely managed to get out of danger with only one second remaining on the clock before he passed out from Bleeding.
Siegfried observed the Dimensional Communication Device-002 and muttered, “Hmm... Is this the altar...?”
“You little rat...” Ulcera gnashed his teeth as he got up and made his way toward him.
However, Siegfried had no plans to fight him as he had something more urgent to do.
He raised Horse Fly and was about to smash the Dimensional Communication Device-002 into pieces, but...
“W-Wait! Stop!” Ulcera desperately shouted.
“Hmm?”
“Please... Anything but that...”
“What if I want to?”
“I’ll spare you in exchange for that,” Ulcera said as he hurriedly sheathed his sword and raised his hand in the air, and then he said, “Let’s calm down first, okay?”
“I think you’re the one that has to calm down...” Siegfried said before he smirked and sneered, “Whoa~ Whoa~ Calm down, boy.”
“You fucking!”
“One more step, and I’m smashing this thing.”
“A-Alright.”
Ulcera could not take another step toward Siegfried. The Dimensional Communication Device-002 was a very expensive and rare piece of equipment that the Church of Osric could not afford to lose.
But what if Ulcera failed to protect the communication device and it was destroyed?
The church was going to make him pay a steep price for his failure.
“I’m not going to attack you, so please don’t destroy that communication device...”
“Liar liar pants on fire~”
“I-I’m not lying!”
“You expect me to believe you?” Siegfried said with a smirk before he added, “I know you’re going to attack me whether I destroy this or not.”
“I’m not! Believe me!” Ulcera desperately shouted, and he even went as far as pleading, “Please don’t destroy that—“
Bam!
Siegfried swung Horse Fly toward the Dimensional Communication Device-002.
“...!”
Ulcera’s face turned ghastly pale.
He fell into the abyss of despair. The instant the Dimensional Communication Device-002 was destroyed, he knew that he was fucked.

[Alert: You have cleared the Quest – Destroy the Suspicious Altar!]
[Alert: Go find the Quest Maker, Cheon Woo-Jin, to collect your rewards.]
Siegfried smiled after checking the quest clear message.
“Bravo!”
He could not help but be delighted by the quest clear message, as this quest would reward him with three levels.
“A-Are you happy...? Is this... funny for you?” Ulcera asked in a defeated voice.
“It’s obvious I’ll be happy,” Siegfried replied with a shrug before he smirked and added, “And it’s obvious that you’re fucking mad.”
“You dare...” Ulcera muttered as his face slowly contorted and resembled a demon while glaring at Siegfried. He drew his sword and screamed, “YOU DARE!”
Every swing of his sword carried immense force behind it, and even Siegfried flinched after sensing the bloodlust he was emitting.
“I’m going to kill you! I’m going to rip you to pieces! You’re dead!”
“Aaaack~!” Siegfried screamed and ran away.
“Come back here, you rat!” Ulcera shouted while chasing after him.
“H-Huh?”
“You son of a bitch!”
“Oh no! Somebody help me~!” Siegfried cried out as he ran as fast as he could.
“Stop! I said stop!”
“Nope~ Not gonna~”
“You fucking son of a bitch! Stop right there!”
“I don’t want to~”
Siegfried acted extremely detestable while he ran away from Ulcera.
To show how detestable he was...
‘I want to kill him. I want to kill him. I want to kill him. I want to kill him. I want to kill him. I want to kill him. I want to kill him. I want to kill him. I want to kill him. I want to kill him. I want to kill him...!’ These were the only words in Ulcera's head at the moment.
Nothing else mattered to him aside from wrangling Siegfried’s neck before pulling it from his body. He was so enraged by the taunts that he had completely forgotten about his mission failure and the punishment awaiting him.
Ulcera wanted to kill Siegfried, grind his body in a blender, and drink it up to quench his anger. Unfortunately, the target of his anger was fast. He was so absurdly fast that catching him seemed like an impossible task.
Shwooong!
Siegfried ran like the wind thanks to his title ‘Pesky Brat’ activating.
“I’m going to kill you! I’m going to rip you to shreds!”
“Yahoo! Catch me if you can! Weee!”
“Y-Youuuu...!” Ulcera completely lost his cool as his anger reached its maximum threshold.
Meanwhile, Siegfried composed himself and planned his next move.
Which skill was going to be most effective against an enemy with physical damage resistance?
‘Let’s see... Should I go with Touch of Death or Torrential Flower Rain?’
It was quite difficult to tell which skill was going to guarantee him victory.
‘No, I can’t go with Touch of Death. A single-hit skill might not deal the damage needed.’
He decided to forgo using Touch of Death. He concluded it was going to be difficult to kill Ulcera with it due to his Physical Damage Resistance A. Infusing Horse Fly with an attribute before using it was one solution, but Ulcera possessed Magic Resistance C.
It was worth a shot if Horse Fly was at least +10, but that was not the case right now.
In the end, Siegfried took out two rainbow-colored disks and threw them toward Ulcera.
Shwaaa!
The discs were set ablaze by Siegfried’s mana as they cut through the air.
“Your toys can’t defeat me!” Ulcera confidently shouted after seeing the two discs flying toward him.
Wooong!
Siegfried cast Elemental Shower to shred Ulcera’s resistance against fire, water, lightning, and darkness all at once.
Chwak!
The two discs split into hundreds of projectiles and...
Shwaaaaaaaa!
The flower rain of death descended upon Ulcera.
Only this time, it was a blazing flower rain of death!
***
The Torrential Flower Rain infused with fire attribute was so beautiful and mesmerizing that it was difficult to put it in words.
Shwaaaa!
The one thousand projectiles flew around while leaving behind a rainbow-colored trail mixed with a fiery blaze.
‘Wow...’ Siegfried was mesmerized and in awe while watching the colorful flower petal shower in front of him.
However, it didn't take long for the mesmerizing sight to change. freew(e)bnovel.(c)om
Shwaaa!
The flower petals zipped through the air and minced Ulcera up. The swam of petals shredded his HP every time they zipped past him.
Ninety percent... eighty percent... seventy percent... twenty percent... and ten percent.
[Chaos Executor Ulcera]
[HP: ??????????]
Ulcera only had ten percent HP remaining by the time the fiery flower petal shower ended. The Torrential Flower Rain failed to finish him off as the disks were not enhanced just like Horse Fly.
However, the fire attribute infused in the projectiles had dealt a staggering amount of magic damage, and it was extremely effective against Ulcera, who possessed Magic Resistance C, unlike his Physical Damage Resistance A.
Still, it was commendable that he didn't die despite taking the full brunt of Siegfried’s Torrential Flower Rain.
“Whoa? That didn’t kill him?” Siegfried grumbled in disbelief after seeing his opponent still standing.
On the other hand, Ulcera’s current appearance could only be described as hideous.
Fwaaa... Fwaaaah...!
He was on fire after taking massive fire attribute damage. He looked like a demon that had just ascended from hell as he walked toward Siegfried while growling.
“I’m going to kill you... Siegfried... van Proa...”
“H-Hiiik!”
“I’m going to kill you whatever it takes...!”
“H-Hey! Don’t come near me!”
“You’re dead!” Ulcera shouted as he lunged at him.
Wooong!
A black energy seeped out from Ulcera’s body.
‘That’s a rage pattern!’ Siegfried realized the black energy to be the rage pattern of monsters.
Monsters would usually go berserk once their HP fell critically low, and most of the monsters that entered Rage Mode would have their HP replenished and their powers enhanced.
[Chaos Executor Ulcera]
[HP: ??????????]
Ulcera regained sixty percent of his HP as it rose from ten percent to seventy percent.
“Hiiik!”
“No, you don’t!”
Siegfried tried to run away, but Ulcera was now as fast as him after entering Rage Mode.
“C-Can you stop chasing me?”
“I’m going to kill you.”
“Hiiik!”
Siegfried no longer had anywhere to run as he was standing on the edge with a two thousand-meter drop behind him.
“I’m going to kill you in the most agonizing and cruelest method possible,” Ulcera said in a sinister voice as he walked toward him.
“You will die an excruciating—“ 𝓯𝒓𝒆𝒆𝔀𝒆𝓫𝓷𝙤𝒗𝒆𝒍.𝙘𝙤𝙢
“Nah, why don’t you eat this instead?” Siegfried replied as he raised his middle finger, and then he smirked and said, “Who said I’m dying?”
“You fucking son of a bitch!”
“Look at you drinking Kimchi soup when I don’t even plan to die today. Are you a Kimchi? Do you know Kimchi?”[1]
“Is coming up with gibberish the only thing you could think of after getting cornered—“
“Why do you think you've cornered me?”
“...!”
Ulcera doubted his eyes, and the reason was...
“Keep your head safe for me! I’m going to bash it open the next time we meet!” Siegfried said with a smirk before leaning back and falling head first down from the Sky Tower.
Tokki’s Thoughts: I usually try to find a suitable English idiom since Korean ones don’t make sense when translated into English, but the Kimchi part had to be translated literally for the entire context.
Please consider it as a Korean 101 lesson or something! (_ _) *bow*
1. Drinking Kimchi soup is the Korean equivalent of ‘don’t count your chickens before they hatch’ or ‘putting the horse before the carriage’. The full idiom is ‘don’t drink Kimchi soup thinking that someone will give you rice cake’. Rice cake was traditionally served with Kimchi soup to prevent choking and indigestion. Meaning a person drinking Kimchi soup is expecting rice cake after it. ?
