The Mythical Hunter has Returned - Chapter 146

Episode 146
Abyss of despair.
It was an abyss that brought hell to hunters in a different sense from the abyss of sloth.
Unlike the Abyss of Sloth, which was difficult to conquer due to its unique environment, it was nearly impossible to conquer due to the sheer number of monsters inside.
The problem is that each and every one of those monsters is so powerful that it is difficult for ordinary guild members to deal with them easily.
At the entrance to the Abyss, Sekhmet and Julia were waiting.
“You came quickly.”
“Because debts have to be repaid.”
Sekhmet answered as if it was nothing and pointed to Julia next to her and asked.
“Is this human also going to be subjugated?”
“that’s right.”
“I don’t think you can see?”
“It is a valuable force that will guide us on the right path.”
“Is that so?”
I approached Julia.
“Are you here, brother?”
“You came quickly.”
“I thought you were in a hurry, so I put everything aside and came.”
“Do you have your lucky box?”
“Yes. I haven’t had any use for it yet. There’s nothing dangerous right now.”
She asked me with her hands clasped together as if praying.
“Did you finish the work you were doing?”
“Yes, it’s almost finished. I think we just need to clean up here.”
She watched me for a moment with her mouth closed.
“Who’s next after Thor?”
There was a hint of fear in her voice as she asked calmly.
“I can’t tell you that.”
“Then let me ask you one more thing. Brother, do you want the end of the world?”
“No way. I’m just trying to avoid the worst that could happen to us.”
“… … .”
She nodded after chewing over my words several times.
“I understand. I sensed that there was no ill will towards you, brother. That is enough.”
By the time I finished talking to Julia, Athena and Hades had also arrived.
“Father and Odin will be arriving soon. Do you plan on going in right away?”
“That’s right.”
“Zeus, we will try to stop you, but we cannot be sure.”
“If you feel it’s difficult, you can run away right away.”
“In that case, don’t leave a message.”
“yes.”
Hades, who had been quietly watching me, sighed and approached me.
“Don’t die. I don’t want to take you in after you’ve lost all your abilities and turned into a ghost.”
The god of the underworld tells me not to die.
It’s ironic.
“Don’t worry. You will never die there.”
After finishing speaking, I entered the Abyss with my party members.
* * *
As soon as you enter the Abyss of Despair.
Krrrrrr.
I could hear a monster’s howl from far away.
“Come to think of it, why is this the Abyss of Despair?”
Lee Soo-yeon asked Jang Man-cheol.
Since Jang Man-cheol was a member of Thor’s guild, he knew more about this place than anyone else.
“It’s because of the size of the dungeon that seems to have no end. No matter how far you go, monsters keep appearing and the dungeon continues… . It’s called the Abyss of Despair because everyone ends up despairing. Because you can’t see the end.”
Lee Soo-yeon’s face turned towards me.
“Can we really conquer this place?”
“It is possible. If it weren’t for that, I wouldn’t have come.”
At this point, all I could say was to believe.
“Then let’s hurry. Before the other gods enter the Abyss.”
“all right.”
Jang Man-cheol stood at the front, followed by Julia.
Sekhmet and Isuyeon stood in the middle of the line, while Fenrir and Jormungand walked on either side as escorts.
The formation was completed with Promise walking beside me at the back of the line.
“You can just follow my intuition and guide me along the way, Miss Julia.”
“Is that really okay?”
“Yes, I trust your intuition, Miss Julia.”
Her senses were sharp.
Just as it was in the Abyss of Illusion before, it will help you find the right path here too.
Julia also contributed a lot to the conquest of this place in her previous life.
As an apostle blessed by Loki, she took the lead in conquering the Abyss of Despair.
Of course, she didn’t help with combat power, but just by guiding us on the right path, she was a great help in the conquest.
There’s this Julia.
‘The current power is not inferior at all to the previous life’s attack.’
There are a lot of variables scattered around, but it’s enough.
“Just go in this direction.”
With Julia’s guidance, we moved forward little by little.
Goooooo!
Meanwhile, they encountered a monster in the shape of an elephant bigger than a house.
“Let’s go into battle!”
Jang Man-cheol shouted from the front, putting strength into his shield-holding hand.
It looks like he’s about to take a head-on attack from that giant elephant.
“Get out of the way.”
“uh?”
I passed by Jang Man-cheol and ran to the mammoth.
And summon Mjolnir.
Phagec!
He struck down the mammoth’s huge tusks.
Kwarrung!
The bastard’s tusks broke in an instant with a flash of lightning.
-Kueeeeek!!!
Then, he struck down the head of the writhing creature with a scream.
Kwajik!
The guy whose head was broken just gave out and collapsed.
Kuung!
Dust rose.
Jang Man-cheol, who was looking at the mammoth whose head was smashed in one room, looked at me with a bewildered face.
“Then do I need… me?”
“Distinguish between what you can stop and what you cannot stop.”
“…Did you think I couldn’t stop what you just did?”
“Yeah. If it were you now, both your arms would be broken.”
“… … .”
“I hired you to block enemy attacks from the front, but that doesn’t mean I wanted you to get destroyed from the start.”
“But if the tank can’t stop the enemy’s attack….”
“Don’t just worry about blocking with a shield. Another way is to provoke the enemy and make them make a mistake. The important thing is to draw the enemy’s attention to you.”
If we can distract the enemy for even a second, Sekhmet, me, and the two spirits will take care of the rest.
“Hmm, I see what you mean. Keep that in mind.”
The cries of the monsters grew closer and closer as this battle progressed.
Other monsters who know there is a battle will come to find new targets.
As if they were born to fight, all the monsters here had an absurd competitive spirit.
“The others will be coming soon. Everyone, prepare for battle.”
Everyone drew their weapons.
Even Julia and Lee Su-yeon took out their weapons.
-Goooooo!
A number of monsters that had crossed the ridge rushed toward the group.
-Wow!
Orcs in the lead, followed by trolls, monsters that looked like giant spiders, and even flying harpies.
“I think it’s over a few hundred.”
Everyone swallowed their saliva as Jang Man-cheol repeated the words.
“Maintain your formation. You must never break.”
“Whew, even when I was in the Thor Guild, I’ve never experienced a battle this intense.”
Jang Man-cheol is nervous.
“Kekekeke, it certainly lives up to its name as the Dungeon of Despair. There aren’t any weak monsters among them.”
Sekhmet looked forward to the pleasure of slaughter.
Fenrir and Jormungand stared at their enemy in silence.
“Ghhhhhhh!!”
-Crowd!
Kwakwakwang!
The battle began with Jang Man-cheol blocking the orcs’ axes.
The monsters in the lead were torn apart by Sekhmet swinging her claws behind Jang Man-cheol, who had blocked the orc’s attack with a shield.
“Everyone die! Hahahaha!”
I jumped up from my seat and climbed onto the head of the largest troll.
This time, he pulled out the Sea Nation’s Trident and stabbed the bastard in the back of the neck with his spear.
Phew!
-Kueeek!
Using Mjolnir is good, but it uses too much strength.
I had to fight while conserving as much mana as possible.
Because you never know what might happen.
“Die, monster.”
He stabbed the spear deeper, tearing at the bastard’s flesh with his spear.
The spear went deeper and tore into the troll’s heart.
The huge body fell sideways.
Kuung!
The small monsters next to it were crushed to death.
“Suyeon!”
[10. Shinsalja Dojin – First time creating a solo dance with his teacher. – Tale-level]
Poisonous smoke spread to the location designated by Lee Soo-yeon.
It was weaker than the poison I had made, but it was enough to stop the monsters from moving.
Meanwhile, Fenrir and Jormungand slaughtered the poisoned monsters.
It was a one-sided massacre.
How much time has passed?
“Keeeek!”
Sekhmet clicked her tongue as she cut off the last monster’s head.
“They were quite a nuisance. I’ve never seen anyone attack me like this even if their limbs were cut off.”
Even she, accustomed to slaughter and fighting, was amazed by these battle-mad monsters.
“It must be the effect of the Abyss.”
“What effect does the Abyss of Despair have? What do you know?”
“… All I know is that the waves spreading from this Abyss cause monsters to go berserk.”
It will continue on if we do not kill the otherworldly god who rules this place.
“So, I guess I’ll have to keep dealing with these annoying monsters.”
“that’s right.”
“Seeing blood isn’t bad, but it’s really annoying when your opponent ignores death and rushes in.”
I saw Jang Man-cheol panting behind Sekhmet, who was clicking her tongue.
“It blocks pretty well.”
“Haa, haa. Don’t make me talk. I feel like I’m going to die right now.”
“Where are you hurt?”
“I wasn’t hurt because the armor was so good… but it’s tough. Those crazy monsters. I’ve heard rumors about them, but they’re even worse than I imagined. Shit!”
He wiped the sweat and took a sip of water.
“Do I have to keep doing this?”
“Yeah. We’ll have to fight for a few days.”
“Damn. Training is going well.”
After finishing speaking, Jang Man-cheol laughed heartily.
* * *
The sun god Ra saw Set blocking him.
“Set, what are you doing?”
“I was asked to do this personally.”
“He killed your brother.”
Set, who was always a sore finger.
The son was now blocking himself.
Even at the request of a human who killed his own brother.
“I know. But you and I weren’t on good terms, right?”
-Osiris is killed.
It was also Set who sent the news that Osiris, who had gone to assassinate Kim Do-jin under the pretense of recruiting him, had died.
In this situation, there is only one being that can kill him.
‘Kim Do-jin, the God Murderer.’
There was no one other than Kim Do-jin who killed Hathor and disrupted the society of the gods.
While he was on his way to Korea after subduing the Abyss where he had been scattered, he heard news that Thor had died.
-Zeus and I are going to kill Kim Do-jin. What are you going to do?
Odin’s message reached Ra, who was traveling from the United States to Korea.
Of course I have to kill him.
However, since he had left the United States alone before they could contact him, he had no troops to lead immediately.
So I came to ask for help with the set.
“I’m sorry, but Father can’t go kill Dojin.”
The guy dared to rebel against him.
“Do you want to die?”
“On the contrary. I’m stopping it because I want to live.”
“Do you think you can fight me and win?”
“We’ll have to try it to find out.”
Set reached out, and in his hand was a huge scythe.
“… How foolish.”
As Ra summoned his long spear, a magnificent sun plate appeared behind him.
Just like a halo.
He extended a spear called the solar panel, which was a sacred relic.
Unfortunately, it turned out to be an attack on one’s own child, but it couldn’t be helped.
Without killing, just knocking them down as much as possible to teach them… … .
Boom!
The spear and the sickle met in the air, creating a shockwave.
“You, you, you, why do you have my power…?”
“It would be a problem if you thought that only your father gave you something.”
The corners of Set’s mouth twisted.
