Chapter 88
The Successor To The Underworld Is A Cheat Player 88
The Holy Steel Knights were doomed.
Paladin Blackgreen didn’t know if he would sustain major injuries.
Still, the opponent was from the Dark Guild.
“Hmm. Should we just wait for the Shard of Angel to be in front of us?”
“It is the will of the Order.”
“If it’s the will of the Order….”
Blackgreen was ultimately trying to accept it.
“No.”
Ain, or rather Sein, couldn’t just stand by and watch.
“We need to attack right now.”
Blackgreen is a threat.
“But.”
“Don’t you see it?”
Who Immortal sent from Nemortgar, no one knew, but.
“That snake-eyed brat is no match.”
Even considering the lack of resources, there was a possibility they couldn’t even inflict proper damage.
One might think the Dark Guilds would send hopeless individuals upon hearing the name Paladin.
“I said, can’t you hear me!”
It was Paladin, appearing after a very long time.
If they didn’t understand their full strength, there was a high chance of making the wrong choice.
However, Sein’s thoughts were futile.
“Thank you for guiding me this far.”
Those crazy bastards.

He didn’t sense any movement.
It was the overwhelming darkness that confused his senses.
“It’s confirmed with this.”
Just like Sein resisted the darkness, the Darklings also possessed the power to resist the darkness.
Sein was also affiliated with the Demoros, but he had never been involved in missions related to the darkness.
Moreover, if it was related to the darkness, it was undoubtedly a highly classified matter.
“I need to investigate.”
He caught a glimpse of another possibility.
But that was it.
“…Those crazy bastards.”
About thirty humans appeared.
One in a black robe.
The other in a mix of black and gold armor.
Immortals and Demoros.
“The unbelievers have shown themselves!”
Blackgreen stepped forward, looking pleased, and spoke.
Chae-e-eng!
The Holy Steel Knights also drew their weapons, readying themselves fully.
“Do you feel confident?”
If it was him, he would aim for the moment when the Sacred Golem and Blackgreen clashed.
If they revealed their previous forms, it meant something.
“I need to keep an eye on this.”
The power of the Darklings.
Thud!
The power of Palladium.
Which one would prevail.
But then, it happened.
Kukukukukukung!
Suddenly, with a massive roar shaking the ground, it felt like an earthquake had begun to tremble the earth.
“Hold on!”
They began to move urgently.
The command to not lose balance on the shaking ground turned into “Blood….” soon after.
“Watch out-!”
Everyone present here could be considered elite individuals.
Survivors of numerous real battles, the strong.
“Dark Barrier-!”
Even the Immortal.
Thud!
And the Demolisher.
“Retreat-!”
The Holy Knights each moved in their own way, preparing to withstand whatever was approaching.
Among them, the standout was Blackgreen.
Thud!
Driving their massive greatsword into the ground, they ignited their holy power.
“Let faith rise!”
In an instant, the greatsword emitted a radiant light.
The already unstable ground split completely, beginning to liquefy.
A shield seemingly protecting the Holy Knights.
But that was not all.
Crash!
The liquefied ground scattered the Holy Knights in all directions.
Sein thought it was the best way.
Wham!
If they didn’t move quickly enough to evade.
Kwaaaaah-!
They would have been obliterated by that insane fist.
The worst of all were the Immortals.
Believing in their formidable magic and dark sorcery, they joined forces to erect a barrier.
Crash!
It shattered into pieces.
“Damn it!”
At the spot where the fist rose again, there were the elite Immortals who had withstood it, now reduced to mere bloodstains.
It was just one attack.
“…What is this.”
An attack that bewildered everyone.
Up in the sky.
Hum.
The crimson glowing eyes seemed to glare at everyone like a fallen angel.
It was a divine soldier.
– Titan.
A raid-level boss monster had awakened from its slumber, its appearance and immense power causing them to momentarily stop.
However, as mentioned.
“The backup is coming! Dodge!”
They were elites.
Quickly adjusting their formation, they tried to evade the flying fists once more.
Sein, still embracing Cecil, leaped towards the Holy Knights.
At that moment, there was someone who bore the first blow.
“Dark Needles.”
Immortal.
Unable to contain their anger after losing a third of their power in a single blow.
A giant black needle that pierced the air.
That.
Kwaaang!
Colliding with the Titan’s fist, causing an explosion.
A raid-level boss monster.
Inherently calamitous, these creatures were designed to be unbeatable by a single player.
Temples, mercenary guilds, empires, or kingdoms.
Players who had reached the end of faction quests and built their influence.
Kwaaaang!
One could say that hunting with influence was what raid monsters were about.
Amidst the black explosion, the world seemed to be shrouded in darkness.
The colossal Dark Needles clashing with the Titan’s fist.
Thud.
It was a remarkable sight.
For just a moment, with sheer force, they managed to halt the Titan’s fist.
But they must not forget.
That the enemy here was not just the Titan.
Sweeeek!
Arrows of flying light.
Kaang!
Barely, the barrier created by the Immortal’s dark mage managed to deflect it.
If it had been a bit late, the Immortal’s commander who expelled the Dark Needles might have been injured.
“It was that guy.”
The hood fluttering as it was peeled off.
Sein could see the Immortal’s commander.
“Fephro Immortal.”
The child of the Immortal, first involved in the Demon Incident.
The master-level dark mage they had properly faced for the first time.
“Holy Knights-!”
Blackgreen shouted.
“There will be no change! We will eliminate the unbelievers first!”
The charging Sungcheol Knights yelled.
In the midst of it,
Boooom!
The Titan’s fist was literally tearing through the air, coming down.
Kwaaang!
The earth exploded, creating a crevice.
On the exploding ground,
Thud!
Blackgreen stepped on it and leaped up towards Phephero, wielding a massive greatsword.
A gleaming sword.
Facing Phephero.
Klang!
However, Blackgreen’s sword could not touch Phephero.
Six Demoros suddenly appeared.
The moment they crossed their swords to block Blackgreen,
“We’ve got you, Immortal.”
Jagar instantly appeared behind Blackgreen.
The curved dagger, like my eyes, was about to pierce through the gap in Phephero’s armor.
“Huahp!”
A divine light burst forth from Blackgreen as he unleashed his energy.
Paaang!
Like the meeting of opposite poles of a magnet, everything surrounding Blackgreen was repelled.
‘The sacred domain.’
It was the moment Paladin, with his unique skill, finally revealed his form.
“Tsk.”
The Darklings spread out in the distance.
They began to refine their formation.
Of course, in the meantime,
Kwaaang!
The Titan was flipping the ground with its fist.
‘It hasn’t fully started functioning yet.’
Right now, all it can do is move its fist.
In the meantime,
‘We need to settle something.’
Sein observed all this, only to step in now.
“Great Angel above.”
From Noble mtl dot com
A solemn voice.
“Bless your servants.”
Sunghchul Knights.
And.
“Hahaha! Ha!”
A gleam began to shine on Black Green’s body.
“Did you see that?”
Black Green laughed loudly and pointed his greatsword towards the Dark Ones.
“The Saint is with us!”
“…!”
“The Saint?”
Two unfamiliar figures.
But to call them saints.
If those words had come from someone else’s mouth, they would have been dismissed as nonsense.
Not a rumor about a holy maiden, but saints.
However, if the one uttering those words was Paladi, it was a different story.
Swish.
Two Dark Ones locking eyes.
No words needed as their thoughts aligned.
Kwaaaang!
As the Titan’s fist struck down, the earth exploded, obscuring everyone’s view.
Meanwhile.
Thud!
Demorus moved first.
If that figure over there is a saint, they must be eliminated first.
But.
Whoosh!
Demorus and Jhagar could only stagger in the face of the flying sword winds.
“Did you think you could surpass me?”

It was magnificent.
If this were recorded and uploaded to the internet as a video, gaining a million subscribers in no time would be a piece of cake.
Or considering the millions of players in Sanctuary, he might even become the owner of the Diamond Button.
Kwaaaang!
The earth periodically exploding.
The pressure released by the Titan’s fists.
Amidst all that.
Clang! Clang! Clang!
A battle unfolding like madness.
Describing it as acrobatics would fall short.
A tale bordering on wonder.
Stepping on shards of the earth, leaping, infusing strength into sword and body.
Kwaaaang!
Even within that, one had to maintain the balance of magic to unleash maximum power.
Kwaaaaang!
To keep Oler from faltering.
