Dimensional Sovereign Chapter 59

Chapter 59: Ghoul Lord (3)

“Kuooh! T-this!”

The ghoul lord was confused by this unexpected situation. Its body was shaking.

Chu chu chu chu.

Black smoke poured from its body. At that moment, cobweb-like cracks developed on its body.

“Kuoooh! T-this rat bastard! I won’t let this go.”

The ghoul lord dropped Heksia’s head and ran towards Kang-jun. Although it had lost the power of the Jewel of Darkness, the ghoul lord didn’t disappear.

It was just weakened.

However, it wasn’t hard for the ghoul lord to get rid of a small human sovereign.

Kwang! Kwa kwang!

The ghoul lord rushed towards Kang-jun with its mouth wide open.

‘Ohh!’

The ghoul lord was so fast that he had no way to avoid it. Kang-jun was forced to use Heavenly Cut.

Flash!

Heavenly Cut rushed out. It slammed against the mouth of the ghoul lord.

Paaack!

Blood emerged from the mouth of the ghoul lord. The ghoul lord flinched back. The ghoul lord frowned as it touched its mouth with its hands.

“Kuooh!”

It was because it was weakened. There were already cracks in its body so its defense was weakened.

However, this wasn’t a slight abrasion but a big wound.

Of course, Kang-jun was also upset.

‘Shit! Wasn’t it hit with Heavenly Cut?’

It was the ghoul lord. It was the owner of a combat power that beat Heksia who was supposedly dragon class.

It was impossible for a Lv20 Kang-jun to defeat such an opponent.

It was a miracle that he could even wound him.

‘I will eventually fail. I have to give up here.’

Kang-jun was in a bad mood. He had no way to deal a fatal blow to the ghoul lord.

He broke the Jewel of Darkness so he could obtain 100 achievement points. No, if the mission failed then he might not be able to get the achievement points.

Kang-jun’s mind was complicated.

“Kuaaaah!”

Kwang! Kwaang! Kwa kwang!

The ghoul lord was hit once so it carefully cornered Kang-jun.

Kang-jun constantly used Aura of the Wind and Heavenly Cut so his black magic energy was extremely low.

Fortunately, he had the advanced black magic potion that could restore 300 points of energy. However, he couldn’t afford to drink it due to the attacks of the ghoul lord.

“Kukakakaka! Insignificant human sovereign! Drop dead!”

Kung! Kwaang!

The ghoul lord didn’t pay any attention to Heksia as it tried to kill Kang-jun.

But that was his big mistake. He should have attacked Kang-jun after completely killing Heksia.

In the meantime, Heksia had recovered a bit of stamina.

She was aware of the fact that the Jewel of Darkness had been destroyed by Kang-jun. So her expression was lively.

“Hohoho! Ghoul! You will now go to hell.”

Heksia struck the ghoul lord’s body.

Bam! Bam bam!

Her speed hadn’t changed much, but the ghoul lord was weakened and couldn’t easily avoid Heksia.

Bam! Bam bam! Kwajijik!

Heksia’s eyes were filled with spite and a desire for revenge.

“Kill! I’ll kill you!”

Bam bam bam! Kwajik!

The cracks on the ghoul lord’s body started expanding as it continued receiving strong damage. Black liquid came pouring out from the cracks.

Yet the ghoul lord was persistent.

It suddenly blocked one of Heksia’s strikes and grabbed her arms.

“Grrrr!”

Then it bit Heksia’s neck.

“Aaaagh!”

Heksia screamed as she fell backwards. The ghoul lord moved with her as its teeth was still stuck in her neck.

“Kukukuk! The winner will be me.”

If it destroyed Heksia then it would somehow be able to recover. Therefore, the ghoul lord’s complexion was filled with joy.

Then a flash of light hit its back.

Paak!

Kang-jun had recovered 300 points of black magic energy by drinking the potion and immediately used Heavenly Cut.

Flash! Flash! Flash flash flash!

Kang-jun poured all his black magic energy into wildly using Heavenly Cut continuously.

The 300 points of black magic energy he just recovered was gone in an instant.

Heavenly Cut was used as many as 10 times.

He only aimed at the ghoul lord’s back.

The ghoul lord was already heavily injured due to Heksia.

In such a state, the ghoul lord wouldn’t be able to survive against so many Heavenly Cuts.

Jjejejeok!

The ghoul lord collapsed. At the same time, its body started to crumble.

“Kuooooh! T-this is ridiculous…”

The ghoul lord stared at Kang-jun before finally turning into smoke and scattering.

At that moment, something astounding happened.

[Your level has risen.]

[Your level has risen.]

[Your level has risen.]

[Your level has risen.]

[Your level has risen.]

What was this? Kang-jun suddenly rose five levels.

Lv.25 (Exp 00.00%)

[War] Intermediate

Health: 670/670.

Black Magic Energy: 460/460

Strength: 28 (+5)

Agility: 29 (+5)

Intelligence: 26

Good Luck: 7

Charisma: 9 (+4)

‘Perhaps?’

Kang-jun was pleasantly surprised. He crazily used Heavenly Cut and miraculously succeeded in killing the ghoul lord.

As a result, Kang-jun gained a huge amount of experience that raised his level by five.

Heksia hadn’t killed the ghoul lord. Due to that, Kang-jun received a huge amount of experience.

‘I am now Lv25?’

It seemed like a dream to Kang-jun. No matter how bizarre Hwanmong was, it wouldn’t be easy to experience something like this again.

Wasn’t the ghoul lord equivalent to a dragon?

Was it only five levels?

Of course, that alone was huge. It wasn’t everything.

If Kang-jun killed the ghoul lord himself then it would be normal for him to gain a few dozen levels.

That was common sense.

Kang-jun nodded after thinking for a moment.

‘That’s right. The experience is allocated.’

The ghoul lord was injured by Heksia. Kang-jun had just dealt the final blow.

Therefore, most of the experience was given to the unconscious Heksia while Kang-jun received an amount equivalent to his contribution.

Yet that alone made him gain five levels, so it was really a jackpot.

This wasn’t the only surprise.

[3,221 nodes have been gained.]

He received more than 3,000 nodes. He didn’t know if it was distributed according to contribution, but it was still a huge amount.

[182 small moonstones have been acquired.]

[45 large moonstones have been acquired.]

The moonstones profit was also large. 182 small ones and 45 large moonstones meant he would get 317 achievement points.

Of course, Kang-jun kept in mind Han Yeon-soo’s words and wasn’t going to exchange them just yet.

However, that wasn’t the end of the jackpot.

[The ghoul lord’s golden treasure box has been acquired.]

[The ghoul lord’s golden treasure box has been acquired.]

Two shiny places appeared in the place where the ghoul lord vanished.

Kang-jun immediately opened one of the boxes.

There was something in the shape of a heart that glowed red like blood.

‘What is this?’

A message appeared as soon as he picked it up.

[The Ghoul Lord’s Heart has been acquired.]

[Ghoul Lord’s Heart]

-Rating: Legend

-Can enhance the power of a skill.

-Greatly increases physical attack skills.

The ghoul lord’s shining heart!

Legendary items existed but couldn’t be easily obtained.

‘This can enhance the power of my skills?’

The explanation was obvious. It also showed that physical attack power would increase.

Was there a reason to hesitate?

Kang-jun’s Heavenly Cut was a physical attack skill.

It was good enough to cut a monster in half with one slice, but it didn’t have that much power against the ghoul lord.

‘Yes. I’m going to strengthen it.’

It was a legend ranked item so maybe he should save it for a better skill in the future. But if he didn’t use it now, he might regret it.

It was just a pile of poop if Kang-jun died without using it.

It was wiser to enhance his survival rate by strengthening his most powerful skill.

A new message appeared.

[Do you want to use the Ghoul Lord’s Heart? Yes/No]

[Selected the desired skill to mount it on.]

“Heavenly Cut!”

Then the Ghoul Lord’s Heart that Kang-jun was holding disappeared without a trace.

[The Ghoul Lord’s Heart has been mounted on Heavenly Cut, strengthening its power.]

[The physical damage of Heavenly Cut has increased significantly.]

‘Huhuhu, that’s it.’

Kang-jun was delighted. He would find out how much the physical damage had increased when he used it later on.

[The Ghoul Lord’s Heart can be dismounted at any time.]

[Once dismounted from a skill, the Ghoul Lord’s Heart will enter your inventory.]

“Oh! It isn’t a one-time disposable item.”

Surprisingly, the Ghoul Lord’s Heart was a permanent item.

If he received a skill better than Heavenly Cut later on, he could switch and reinforce it.

‘Huhu, it is very convenient because it is a legend ranked item.’

He didn’t need to worry about saving it.

‘Then shall I check the other box?’

He opened the remaining box.

It contained a shiny black armour. It was a whole body armour, including the head.

Messages immediately popped up.

[The Ghoul Lord’s Heavy Armour has been acquired.]

[Ghoul Lord’s Heavy Armour]

-Rating: Legend

-The Ghoul Lord’s Heavy Armour will increase physical and magic defense when equipped.

-Equipped area: Whole body.

-30 inventory spaces.

-Wearer Restriction: Strength 30, Agility 28

‘Amazing!’

Another legend ranked item.

Thanks to his increase in level, his strength and agility stats met the wearer restrictions.

Kang-jun’s hands automatically stripped off the normal grade armour. At the same time, the black armor was attached to his body.

His inventory increased from 12 to 30 spaces.

Items such as the moonstones and potions were moved automatically.

“I thought it would be heavy, but it is light and comfortable to wear.

It felt more relaxing than wearing the leather armour. Maybe it was due to the legend rating.

Furthermore, the helmet automatically entered the inventory when he removed it.

He normally took off the helmet in battle because it was cramped.

‘Huhu, this fight was rewarding.’

He thought about the ghoul lord again.

He was happy due to receiving the skill strengthening and the legendary armour.

Then Kang-jun turned and looked at Heksia.

While the golden boxes disappeared, Heksia’s gigantic body had returned to its original size.

However, Heksia’s condition wasn’t good.

In a situation where she was already badly injured, the ghoul lord’s bite to her neck caused her to be on the verge of death.

Kang-jun immediately examined her body.

‘Fortunately she didn’t die yet.’

If she died then she would have been moved to the resurrection gem. She had only fainted due to the severe injuries.

‘Now that she has returned to her original state, potions should work.’

Kang-jun immediately took out health potions and poured them on her body. Health potions couldn’t be overlapped in one inventory space and needed to be stored separately.

Therefore he only had a few bottles left.

After he poured all the potions, Heksia’s neck injury healed. She opened her eyes.
