I Login Alone-Chapter 55

Episode 55

The ghost horse tread through the air. Jung Si-woo ran over the wall, rushing towards him. He was using the cruel charge, but the Dullahan was faster. Needless to say, it was because of its ghost horse.

“I want a ghost horse too!”

[A human can’t have one. Give up.]

Dreary black Mana bloomed from Dullahan’s ax. The Mana from the ax was displayed outside the weapon. It was a technique that Jung Si-woo couldn’t imitate, but he wasn’t deceived. After all, weapons could be enhanced, more or less.

“Ahhhhh!”

As soon as Jung Si-woo’s hammer and Dullahan’s ax collided, Jung Si-woo suddenly slammed its torso with another hammer that he pulled out of his inventory with his free hand.

[What!?]

Dullahan, who didn’t think there would be a human running around with sledgehammers in each hand, was struck by an authentic attack and tossed off the ghost horse.

[Hmph, human…!?]

“Alright, let’s set the terms fairly!”

Jung Si-woo’s movements were like lightning. The ghost horse who lost his master instinctively pushed Jung Si-woo and read his movements as he was about to run towards Dullahan, striking at his head with its front hooves!

[Kiheeheeeeeee!]

The ghost horse was struck by one blow and disappeared. Now, there was only one stone left covered in black metal.

[My horse!]

“We have to fight fair, don’t we?”

[Yoooooouuu!]

Jung Si-woo smiled as he shoved the horse directly into his inventory. Dullahan whipped his ax with a shout of fury, and the black Mana that was blasted from the end was instantly overwhelmed by Jung Si-woo! Jung Si-woo looked at it, appalled.

“That kind of game technique existed!?”

It was a shockwave that held the attributes and customs of a weapon even though it had been separated in the form of Rather, it was a top-notch skill.

“I’ve never seen a skill like this! …this is amazing! ”

“Don’t just admire it. Get out of the way! ”

However, shortly after Jung Si-woo panicked and threw himself away from it, something appeared before his eyes. Jung Si-woo realized it was Dullahan’s head only after getting hit in the chest.

“Cough!”

[Take the wrath of Dullahan!]

Jung Si-woo tried to crush it in the midst of shock, but the monster’s head returned to his grip shortly after hitting Jung Si-woo. It seemed to be attached to an ability to return automatically.

[Die!]

“Cure!”

Dullahan rushed forward with his strength to end Jung Si-woo! He felt a broken rib and was instinctively nervous, but nothing happened as Dullahan’s ax grew still. It was because Soo Ah-rin realized that Dullahan was a formidable enemy and was preparing a healing spell to heal Jung Si-woo’s wounds immediately.

“Ah!”

[chuckles]

Jung Si-woo returned to normal and successfully flew away from Dullahan, rushing towards him. The ax only shattered the wall. That’s right, the very same wall that he crashed before.

“Hyeong-nim! it’s crushing the wall…!”

“Oh, shit. ”

The wall began to crumble after the ax strike, followed by the black crescent! The undead that clung to the wall went down with it, but Dullahan no longer cared about them. The wrath of the monster that lost its horse was truly great.

[Haha, you dance beautifully!]

“Hmph!”

As the wall begins to collapse, their foothold became unstable, and the ax hit him again, hurling forward. However, as the ax crossed with Jung Si-woo’s hammer, he belted out a loud scream and pushed past it. His hammer was aiming for the head that was in Dullahan’s arm!

[Wha…huff!?]

Jung Si-woo’s strength, which originated from the body in harmony with Mana, had reached a point that surpassed Dullahan’s expectations. You couldn’t underestimate the level of Mana just because one’s level was low. The moment the scream hit, his arm twisted strangely with his armor. At the same time, the head in his hand fell!

[You’re strong!]

“You have a strong head, too! ”

He was going to smash its head, but it was rolling over the wall. Just when Jung Si-woo was about to smash it as quickly as possible, the whole wall collapsed, and the two bodies floated into the air. Those without wings dared to covet the sky, so all that remained was a crash!

[I enjoyed the fun, but this is it.]

Dullahan thought it was his chance to end Jung Si-woo. Dullahan could take advantage of Mana freely in the air, but Jung Si-woo couldn’t help but fall straight down!

[I’ll admit that you’re ignorant but strong. This world is a world dominated by Mana. If you can’t handle Mana…that’s it!]

He swung his ax as hard as he could toward Jung Si-woo, who fell from above him. The black crescent rose into the air following the ax’s trajectory, targeting Jung Si-woo! But just as Dullahan was certain of victory, suddenly, a man with wings appeared in the air, dragging Jung Si-woo. They vanished into thin air.

[What!?]

“Hyeong-nim now is the time!”

Jung Si-woo gripped his hammer, clutching it onto Yong Se-ha, who returned to human size. He awakened this power just a few hours ago. Now was the time to use the options contained in the hammer.

“Grow!”

“Do you really have to shout out like that!?”

A huge sun rose, something truly massive and bright appearing before his eyes. Dullahan realized later that it was Jung Si-woo’s hammer. It was just that it was getting too big, and there was a bright flame burning at the end.

“Ahhhhh, it’s too heavy, Hyeong-nim!”

“Let go! Throw me at Dullahan! ”

“Ahhh…hah! ”

Yong Se-ha threw Jung Si-woo toward Dullahan with all his might. He thrashed toward Dullahan like a rocket and grabbed the hammer with both hands. The weight of the giant paw exceeded Jung Si-woo’s imagination, but he was able to hold it and swing it. That was enough.

“Die!”

[You think I’ll die because of that?!]

He swung the hammer as hard as he could. The burning red sun drew a devastating trajectory into the air and struck Dullahan’s entire body! No matter how big the shock was, Jung Si-woo’s body would be thrown into the air due to the reaction.

[Kuhak!]

Dullahan remained still on the ground, but it didn’t die as it said. Its whole body armor was crushed, and its Mana was leaking out, but it still had the strength to move.

[I’ll kill you.]

With Setnak’s power, it restored itself and cried out. Though its head was gone and its armor was crumbling, it still had an ax with dark Mana in it. If it just stood up and swung it, he could beat it to death!

[I will engrave Setnak’s blessing upon you with a pain worse than death!]

“Phew.”

On the other hand, he quickly put the hammer into his inventory and pulled out another weapon as he cleared the air due to the recoil. It was a rifle.

“But this is definitely going to kill you, isn’t it? ”

[That…can’t be…!]

Dullahan looked at the mana gathering in the rifle, its eyes wide open, but it was still unable to move properly. It was also impossible to strike with an ax. Just a little more, maybe five more seconds. But Jung Si-woo didn’t wait for him anymore.

“Hasta la Vista!”

[Kaghhhhhhhh!]

The critical Bullet sucked up all of Jung Si-woo’s remaining Mana and fired quickly at the reinforced tip, striking Dullahan’s torso. It tried to concentrate on the Mana in its body and fight back against his energy, but it was too much for it to handle. The unknown power that it didn’t yet understand would burn all of it into white.

[Oh my God, how could a human being from Earth…!]

Right after he blew up everything, the Dullahan left while saying a few lines of dialogue that made him curious, just like the rest of the feeble traitors.

[You increased 7 Levels!]

[Critical Bullet Skill is now Lv7!]

[Heavy Strike Skill is Lv27!]

“Phew.”

It was a momentary battle, but it was the most intense of his life. If he had been struck at all by the black crescent, it would’ve been Jung Si-woo, not Dullahan, who was dying! He limped, making sure Dullahan’s torso was gone. And he fell down.

“Oops, I didn’t have wings!”

“I’m on my way, Hyeong-nim!”

Yong Se-ha, who was still maintaining his human size, flew desperately to catch Jung Si-woo and landed on the ground. It was a close one.

“Phew, I’m alive.”

“Hyeong-nim, there’s a stone it left behind.”

Once they landed exactly where Dullahan was, they secured the stone left behind first. His torso was completely destroyed, so there was nothing else to collect.

“I think I can still get five Magic Power from this. This world is a great place. ”

“Collecting the loot is a natural right…but now is not the time to take that stone.”

[Gruuuhhh!]

[Gruuaaaaauh!]

Jung Si-woo raised his head. There was an undead army trampling the ruins to the ground and storming the city. It was like a zombie movie scene!

[Setnaaaaaak!]

[Humans, to humans…Setnak’s blessing…!]

“They have the same form even if they lose their boss.”

“Let’s wrap up and think about it.”

However, no matter how many tens of thousands of undead showed up, it wouldn’t be difficult to deal with them once their commander was gone. How much more if you were against these guys now whose numbers have been absurdly reduced already? He ran out to see the undead, holding his hammer back to its previous size.

“Come to think of it; we need to reclaim the giant’s screams! Oh, and the hearthstone I caught from the doom knight earlier!”

“Oh, there’s the Elite Ghoul!”

“Huh!”

Jung Si-woo rushed around frantically, wielding his hammer to crush the undead. Some of them still hadn’t given up on the dream of a merged evolution, but many of them lost their minds because of the loss of their boss, and many were swept away by Jung Si-woo’s hammer.

“The ghouls are merging again over there!”

“It bothers me to kill all those things. Just let them merge!”

“Ah, the hearthstone of doom knight! Zombies are trying to eat…!”

“What!? ”

The doom knight’s hearthstone was the only thing he didn’t want them to get their hands on! It was incomplete, so it was just a waste of strength. It would be a waste of more time if they ate it up and awakened again!

“Well, there’s something else.”

But Jung Si-woo secured doom knight’s hearthstone and was just about to recover the loot he saw nearby when he tilted his head. It was quite sizeable, and there was a lot of Mana, so it must be an artifact…

“What is this?”

A very familiar black helmet. The heavy feeling inside. It’s damn hard, but it was like a lot of Mana was gathering…!

“It’s Dullahan’s head!”

“Mana and records leveled up but was this monster’s torso and head meant to be separated!”

“No, wait a minute. My retina…”

[Caina’s Malice]

Contrary to Soo Ah-rin’s concern, Dullahan’s head wasn’t a living or dead monster.

It was an artifact.
