The Ex-Hero Is Too Good at Exorcism - Chapter 143



143.

“What are you doing here?”

The monastery was surrounded by a high wall of gray bricks.

And behind it, a tree taller than the fence was planted, so it was double-covered when viewed from the outside.

Also, the entrance was wide enough for two cars to pass at the same time.

The door blocking it was a black door made like a bar, and behind it, a stone statue and a stone path could be seen.

From nob le mt l. com

Just looking at this… It looks like the entrance to a luxurious mansion in a movie.

But soon, things I couldn’t see in an ordinary mansion began to catch my eye.

“… … ”

One of them was a magpie in a tree overlooking such an entrance.

As if it were a part of nature, he was still staring at the surroundings with his eyes shining in the green.

It was no ordinary magpie.

Above that head, there was obviously a level embedded.

There was a small piece of paper hanging from a string near the neck, which looked like a small folded amulet.

Also, it was oddly lifeless for a living creature, so it didn’t look like a divine or spiritual creature.

then… There was only one answer left.

“… Is it a food soul?”

A food soul that monitors the entrance like a surveillance camera.

But that wasn’t the only means of monitoring they had installed at the entrance.

The stone statue on the other side of the gate was one of the four heavenly kings that can only be seen at the temple entrance.

An unknown Chinese character was engraved on the footrest, which also seemed to be a form of witchcraft.

Also, the small decoration hanging on the door is a small eyeball surrounded by eight wings.

It was none other than a statue representing a Christian angel.

“The food body is the yokcheondodang, the angel is the church, and the stone statue is on the side of the temple.”

I mumbled looking at them.

The surveillance spells of each faction were gathered here.

Even that was not enough, and the ground where the walls and doors were standing were lined with complex spells and amulets.

The size of the spell and the number of talismans mobilized were considerable.

A fairly large barrier.

But I didn’t feel anything until I found this monastery.

With that question in mind, I temporarily deactivated the debuff immunity skill Heart of Light.

Then again.

“hmm… ”

The walls and doors that I had seen just a moment ago had disappeared, and a high cliff had arisen in their place.

An illusion or enchantment type magic barrier.

It was also powerful enough to deceive the eyes of the exorcist as well as the general public.

That’s what was hiding this monastery.

What it meant was clear.

To say that I came to the right place.

“… … ”

I immediately used the only concealment skill I had.

That’s “The snail hidden in the shell”.

With a skill that can erase most of my existence itself with the buff called Intermediate Cognition Impairment, as well as the transmission I have.

With this, as long as you don’t honestly walk into the entrance, you won’t be detected by their surveillance spells.

“Still, breaking through the front… Is it dangerous?”

Even a secret hiding place and various surveillance spells.

The atmosphere was quite different from the Mine organization that had been dealt with a while ago.

Perhaps, from here on out, it’s definitely a social realm, where formidable demons are gathered.

So now that I couldn’t properly figure out the number or level, getting caught in their surveillance was not a welcome thing at all.

So I started running around the wall looking for gaps.

It was to find another entrance, not the front gate, where the surveillance spell was applied.

“… That should be enough.”

I stopped a long way from the front door.

The arrow was clearly pointing inside the wall surrounding the monastery.

The grounds of the walled monastery itself were quite extensive.

A level that covers almost the entire peak of the mountain.

Is that why?

The farther away from the front gate, the more and more the vigilance by the surveillance spell was getting neglected.

If that was the case, then it was natural.

No matter how much food soul it is, it’s not just created.

Each one of them is made by consuming spiritual power, and when that spiritual power drops, it needs to be recharged.

In other words, you can’t make it infinitely without thinking about efficiency.

Maybe that’s why the number of shikigami that were densely spread near the main gate decreased at some point.

Here, far from the entrance, there were only one of them, spaced widely apart.

Only the enemy who climbed over the fence or broke through was barely able to capture it.

then…

“… … ”

I quietly drew out my sword.

The place the sword was headed was the ground.

Eventually, the transparent bodily fluid of a giant earthworm flowed from the sword, and the ground it touched melted away in an instant, creating a passage to the underground.

Then, with the power of the white tiger, I manipulated the Ingeom and led the passage to the inside of the wall.

Then, in an instant, a tunnel that one person could enter and exit was completed.

Through this, I set foot on the grounds of the monastery.

“hmm… ”

As expected, their food souls couldn’t detect me.

Thanks to the tunnel, there was also a point where they came in without causing any fuss.

It seemed that the effect of the snail’s skill, Intermediate Recognition Impairment, had worked.

Entering the monastery like that, I cautiously walked inside.

Then what I saw…

“What is that?”

It was a top.

Although the height of the building now stacked is about 6 stories, it was still under construction.

Its floor was a straight circle, and its overall appearance was far from a modern building.

If I were to find something similar, it would be a building that looked like a magic tower from another world.

Why is something like that here?

“… … ”

I silently glared at the tower with such doubts.

There were about 20 demons in it.

All over level 50.

After all, they were formidable guys.

However, there was only one Mine that was particularly highlighted.

The guy at the top.

Is that guy Park Seong-deok?

I didn’t know that yet. But before that, I had to get rid of the others first.

“hmm… ”

So I thought about a method and soon came up with it.

The hint was that they were all inside the tower.

I didn’t even know what they were doing there.

Being concentrated in one building was a perfect condition for annihilation.

So, without further hesitation, I decided to follow the method I came up with.

“first… ”

Activated the white tiger’s power to manipulate metal.

I don’t know how shamanistic the tower is.

In the end, the tower itself was not significantly different from other buildings in terms of construction.

Simply put, it is said to be made using rebar and concrete.

That’s why, at this moment, I was trying to control every single reinforcing bar in the tower.

coo goo goo-

Then, at once, the tower shook as if screaming.

The demons inside sensed the abnormality and moved, but it was not at a level that they could deal with.

Hundreds of rebars simultaneously break the concrete supporting the tower.

In response, the ceiling of the tower collapsed in an instant, and the demons covered in the wreckage screamed.

“hmm… ”

I watched the scene silently.

Originally, even if you don’t know how many rebars, it is impossible to manipulate so many rebars at the same time.

It was not a matter of skill or technique, but purely because of the lack of output, that is, spiritual power.

However, there was a tradition of the Mahuraga family that made this possible, albeit temporarily.

It is an effect that does not consume spiritual power for 30 seconds when the succession is unlocked.

With that power, I was able to manipulate all the rebars in the tower at will.

and the result.

kurlrrr-

The six-story tower, which did not last for less than 10 seconds, collapsed without a doubt.

The demons inside were pushed by the tower’s wreckage, and some of them died.

But, of course, most survived.

Aren’t those guys also masters of intermediate level or higher?

Considering its durability, those who died from being crushed by buildings were rather unlucky.

“Aww… ! this… suddenly what-”

Among the ruins of the collapsed tower, a demon staggered to its feet.

But the words didn’t carry on to the end.

“Ouch… !”

More than 10 steel bars, still under my influence, pierced his body.

It wasn’t just him.

I fired steel bars at all those who were just about to stand up, as well as those still struggling in the rubble.

Numerous reinforcing bars that collapsed the building now pierce the remains of the tower and begin digging them up.

It was a grotesque sight, as if countless tentacles were rooted in the ground, but the effect was certain.

In an instant, the number of demons decreased.

That’s how Mahuraga’s duration ended.

“Huh… omg… what is this… !”

Only one survived in the shower of rebar.

A middle-aged man who appeared to be in his 40s, with highlights from the beginning.

And next to him stood a huge black tiger that blocked the steel bars.

“Black Tiger… ?”

It was the name of a monster that ate countless people in the past.

If you look at the handling of the black tiger belonging to the monster, is it on the side of Yeokcheondodang?

Also, his level was 71.

The highest level among the demons here.

Apparently, he was lucky enough to call the black tiger before the tower collapsed.

It seems to have survived my attack using this.

It was highlighted, so I didn’t intend to kill it from the beginning, but it seems that I had my own skills.

“What are you guys!”

He shouted when he saw me.

The gaze, which at first contained doubt, soon became filled with hostility.

“Is this what you did?”

I didn’t even have to reply to that.

He and I were the only ones left here anyway.

So I just prepared for battle with a human sword.

It seemed he wanted to ask a lot more than that.

“Tell me!”

The man’s cry was answered by the black tiger next to him instead of me.

“Kyaaa!”

A black tiger the size of that house rushed at me.

The claws of the one who howled fiercely and my sword collided.

considerable strength.

But it wasn’t to the point of being unstoppable.

That’s how I bounced off the black tiger’s claws with force.

And I keep trying to dig inside him.

“huh?”

Suddenly, a spirit blocked his way.

Cheongryung.

Now I see that there are many spirits appearing everywhere.

It wasn’t an ordinary decree.

all windows.

They were the spirits of those who died from being bitten by tigers, and were no different from the Black Tiger’s family.

“Tsk… ”

At this, I stepped back for a while.

I should be able to win even if I fight like this, but it was inefficient for me to deal with them all by myself.

“Do you think you can get away?”

Then the man said.

Running away wasn’t even funny.

“I’m not going. I’m just trying to call some friends.”

I said that and called Keng Keng.

Keng Keng, who appeared in the form of a small fox, soon changed into a giant fox monster.

“A nine-tailed fox? But that much-”

Then the guy still chatted with a confident face.

That’s right, the gumiho alone was not a match for the black tiger.

But at that moment, I opened the White Tiger’s divinity.

The concealment skill that had been hiding the divinity was removed, and numerous spears were pulled back at once by the deity of the white tiger.

And even the black tiger flinched and stiffened its posture.

“This… ”

Then, the man’s expression changed.

I then called out the white tiger.

A mountain that shines in silver.

The skill of combining metals to summon the white tiger’s alter ego created a steel tiger that would eat the black tiger by weaving the rebars spread all over the place.

“good.”

At my command the two beasts moved.

The nine-tailed fox tore open the window, and the white tiger chewed on the neck of the black tiger.

Then, the tide turned in an instant.

Neither the spear nor the black tiger could match my opponent.

So I approached him unhindered.

But he just turned his surprised gaze at me.

“… … ”

He looked at me without much embarrassment.

The reason is that… It was like knowing.

Heukho is just a legend that he has because he is a yeokcheondodang.

That’s why it hasn’t been shown yet.

In other words, the tradition of the new god created by the cult should still remain with him.

“If you’re scared, take it out. There is more than this.”

Then, as expected, he frowned and pulled something out of his bosom.

It’s a black bead.

He threw it on the floor, and something like a liquid leaked out of it and took shape.

“… What is this?”

It was a strange creature that could be described as bizarre.

There is no distinction between face, body and limbs.

A surreal appearance like a child’s scribble.

It looked like a viscous black liquid tinged with blue light moving.

also,

“Level 20… ?”

Its level wasn’t even high.

The size was about the size of an average adult, so it wasn’t that great.

That… A new tradition?

Well, it does look pretty new.

That was the moment.

“#$%#$^#$%”

The unidentified creature muttered something.

Then, the black tigers and cheongryungs around them disappeared all at once.

And that wasn’t all.

Even Keng Keng and Baek Ho disappeared at that moment.

“hmm… ?”

Neither Keng Keng nor Baek Ho disappeared because they were attacked by something.

This… Rather, it was correct to see that the summons were forcibly lifted.

And looking at the log window, the contents were written exactly as expected.

＜The succession has been denied.＞

To deny all traditions.

It seemed that this was his ability.

In fact, when I tried to use the other traditions I had, nothing was activated.

And then, a man’s voice continued.

“ha ha ha… Are you upset?”

Unlike before, he smiled confidently.

“But now that it has happened, you are already late. You should have stretched out your feet after seeing a place to lie down.”

His confidence was understandable.

An exorcist who couldn’t use any traditions had less than 10% of his power left.

But the man was mistaken.

Because it wasn’t just the success that remained for me.

“… … ”

So I quietly fixed my sword.
