Chapter 1258

Locke disappeared after being forced to log out. As the rankers moved quickly to approach him, Minhyuk used this slight reprieve to recover his HP slightly by using Absorption Transition. He could only increase his HP by a little through this method. So, he immediately cut down the Giant Bees near him to secure additional HP.

[You have recovered 38% of your HP.]

Minhyuk had seen and felt a lot from Locke’s gaze. He could feel Locke’s admiration and longing to become the protagonist of his own story and his undying will to chase after him. Minhyuk also caught a glimpse of the underlying madness and desire to win in Locke’s heart. That was why he told him that he was terrific.

Just as these people had different reasons to win against him, Minhyuk also had his reasons for protecting his position.

‘For the people who worked hard and struggled to save me.’

He had never forgotten and would never forget.

He could never forget how Lee Jinhwan lost sleep as he scrambled to obtain information about eating addiction from all over the world.

He could never forget how his father bowed low and begged world-renowned doctors while saying, “Please save my son,” as he accompanied him to countless hospitals.

Minhyuk could never forget how the eyes of the dozens of people who lived together with him turned red and grew misty with unshed tears as they looked at him.

All of these people now looked at him with pride and confidence. He once lived as if he were going to die the next day. After all, he did not know when he would die. However, he was now responsible for the lives and livelihoods of many people.

Minhyuk was still young, but he already carried the heavy weight of the title of the world’s Supreme. At just twenty-one years old, he had a significant burden on his shoulders.

He stood there and watched Barrancar charge toward him. Standing beside Barrancar was Ascar, who released an explosion of bloody swords. Khan and Ares were above him while Valentino threw his square shield at him. Even the newly awakened Master of Weapons, Alexander, was coming straight at him.

“Comeeeeee!!!”

Minhyuk held his sword tighter. Even though he only had less than 40% of HP left, he still wanted to fight. He could not recover any more HP because the rankers had subdued all of the nearby Giant Bees. Nevertheless, he would not back down.

[Overlapping Delight.]

The golden and black dice appeared. At that moment, the golden die finally came to a stop.

[The die has been cast! You have rolled a one!]

[The Overlapping Delight’s buff effect will last for thirty seconds!]

The buff duration was just thirty seconds. It seemed like his luck had turned for the worse.

[All of your stats have increased by 21%.]

[Your physical and magical attack power have increased by 25%.]

[All of your skill levels will increase by 1.]

Then, the black die came to a stop.

[The die has been cast! You have rolled a two!]

With the black die rolling a two, the power of Minhyuk’s chosen offensive skill would increase by 1.5 times. And the skill that Minhyuk chose was none other than Crazy, which he immediately used to hit the charging Barrancar.

[Crazy.]

[You have a 55% chance of triggering a sword wind with 3,300% additional attack power that can rip through anything and everything in its path when attacking with a basic attack.]

[Depending on the probability of the skill being triggered, Crazy can be activated continuously.]

[Crazy has been activated three times in a row!]

[The effects of the black die have been applied. The damage has been increased by 1.5x.]

Crack, crack, crack!

Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh!

The blades made of wind erupted and tore apart the approaching rankers. The enhanced power was triggered three times in a row and instantly broke apart Death Knight Emperor Barrancar’s bones.

Thud, thud, thud!

Minhyuk immediately used the Dual Swordsmanship Technique and charged at Barrancar when he saw his bones crumble and fall. Regardless, Barrancar carried Death’s will.

[Barrancar’s Rampage.]

[Barrancar uses all his strength to execute reckless strikes.]

Whenever Death Knights wielded their swords, their blades would be accompanied by an effect, a glowing bright light. The sword of the Death Knight Emperor was different. It did not glow bright but exploded with the most brilliant and blinding golden light.

Slash, slash, slash!

Countless reckless strikes rained down upon Minhyuk.

[Your HP has fallen below 33%.]

Because the opponent was undead, Minhyuk could not trigger the Slaughterer’s Absorption and recover his HP.

[Your HP has fallen below 27%.]

He hurriedly equipped the Silver Dragon Armor. Because of the armor’s damage reflection effect, Barrancar’s attacks were sent back to him. This led to the undead’s eventual collapse and downfall.

At the same time, Minhyuk caught sight of Death, who had also turned into ashes and was slowly scattering with the wind. It seemed that Death and Death Knight Emperor Barrancar’s HP were closely linked together.

‘Now that I’m wearing the Silver Dragon Armor, they should not be able to attack me recklessly, right...?’

Just when Minhyuk was about to take a breather, Ascar appeared before him, swinging her katana.

Slash, slash, slash!

[Asura’s Realm has unfolded.]

[All of your stats will be reduced by 20%. Your movements will be restricted.]

[Asura’s overwhelming power is restricting you.]

[Your attack success rate and physical and magical defense have decreased by 30%.]

“...”

Minhyuk’s face grew ugly as his surroundings changed and turned into her world. When he saw the attacks falling at him from all sides, he knew that they could not be stopped just at the thought of being forced to log out.

Even though they knew that attacking Minhyuk with the Silver Dragon Armor meant they would attack themselves, they continued to do so. They did not know when to back down. That was how strong their determination was to fight against the Supreme.

“Asura’s Secret Technique.”

Vwoooooooong!

A loud cry resonated from within Ascar’s blade as blood appeared and scattered all around him. Her gaze toward Minhyuk was sharp and hostile, as if the man before her was her enemy. Anyone who looked at her would wonder when she had grown this much.

“Slaughterer.”

Hundreds of sword lights shot out from the two katanas in Ascar’s hands, which were glowing with a bright red light. And it wasn’t just any simple sword light. The beams of sword lights shot toward Minhyuk and ran rampant around him, ripping and tearing his flesh and bones.

Of course, Minhyuk had reflected the attacks. In other words, Ascar was also being torn apart.

Meanwhile, Khan and Ares fell from the sky and began to land countless punches and kicks. When Minhyuk’s chest caved in, their chests also caved in.

[Your HP has fallen below 16%!]

Just like that, Minhyuk’s HP slowly began to fall.

[Your HP has fallen below 8%!]

Of course, their HP had also fallen to the ground. However, amidst their constant attacks, a translucent shield appeared around Minhyuk.

[Asura’s Shield.]

[Once attacked, there is a 7% chance of summoning a translucent shield that will cover and protect the area being attacked.]

[The skill user’s defensive power has doubled.]

Minhyuk already had a defensive power beyond imagination, and the Slaughterer’s Absorption could restore his physical strength and stamina. To their chagrin, they discovered he also had the Asura’s Shield.

“PLEASE! COME ON!!!”

Ares and Khan groaned loudly, grimacing in horror when they saw that Minhyuk was still standing strong.

Meanwhile, the remaining players, still attacking Minhyuk to keep him in check, looked up at the sky above them.

“Heavenly Sword.”

A bitter smile appeared on their faces when they saw the impending rain of swords pouring down on them.

All of the rankers had received varying degrees of damage from attacking Minhyuk. Most of them only had around 10% of their HP left. Of course, the same was true for Minhyuk. After several twists and turns, his HP only had around 12% left.

At this moment, Minhyuk was sure that he was going to win. At that moment, Khan said, “I’m sorry, Minhyuk.”

The rankers had gathered together and devised hundreds of strategies while still riding the evil dragon. And of course, this situation was also included in one of their strategies.

As the swords fell upon them, all rankers, except Alexander, turned into ashes as their HP dropped to zero.

“...”

Although they had turned into ashes, the artifacts they wore did not disappear. Valentino’s square shield, Ascar’s katana, Khan’s gauntlet, Ares’ boots, and the weapons and armor of all the rankers who fought fiercely until this moment floated in the sky.

[Weapon of Life.]

[You can use the weapons of all the people who died within five minutes upon the skill's activation.]

[All of the weapons will inflict damage that combines the existing skill user’s attack power and the weapon’s attack power.]

[The skill duration is ten seconds. You can only use these weapons during the duration of the skill.]

[During the ten seconds of using the Weapon of Life, the skill user’s HP will drop quickly and constantly.]

Minhyuk was unaware of the new skills that Alexander had obtained after his awakening as the Weapon Master. Alexander did not hesitate to take advantage of that fact. Regardless, he could only activate this skill at the very last moment, which was both painful and depressing. However, all of these weapons carried their will.

“This is our victory.”

Alexander witnessed the firm determination and will of everyone who agreed to his proposal atop the evil dragon. Initially, they would not have dared to help each other kill the Supreme. Ultimately, they all approved and accepted the plan to activate the Weapon of Life at the end of the battle.

“This is their will.”

Alexander gave glory to everyone who participated in this battle, accepting the downpour of swords with his entire being.

The Weapon of Life’s greatest disadvantage was that his HP would fall rapidly during the skill’s duration. That was not all. There were also several restrictions on his defenses and attacks.

The weapons floating in the air shot toward Minhyuk.

Swoosh!

Bang, bang, bang!

Slash, slash, slash!

The weapons bombarded Minhyuk. The shield shot out and slammed into his waist, the gauntlet flew and punched him in the face, Ascar’s katana created holes all over him, and Ares’ boots trampled on him from above.

Thud!

Even Ali’s staff, which could only deal some damage, appeared and hit Minhyuk.

[Your HP has fallen below 6%.]

Minhyuk’s HP dropped. Of course, the same was true for Alexander.

[Your HP has fallen below 23%.]

The defenseless Alexander, receiving the brunt of the Heavenly Sword’s attacks, quickly calculated everything in his head. No matter how he looked at it, this was their victory. Based on his calculations of the timing and the damage that they were inflicting, there was no way for Minhyuk to win.

[Your HP has fallen below 2%.]

Minhyuk’s face grew uglier when he saw his rapidly decreasing HP.

[Your HP has fallen below 1%.]

Alexander clenched his fists tightly in excitement.

However, just as Minhyuk was unaware of Alexander’s new powers, Alexander and the rest of the rankers were also unaware of the skills and powers that Minhyuk had obtained after he became the true Battle God.

[You only have 1% HP left.]

[The effects of the Title: Absolute God Battle God have been triggered.]

The title Absolute God Battle God that Minhyuk received after he became the true Battle God had several effects. One had a 10% chance of randomly summoning one of his vassals when his HP dropped below 1%.

[One of your vassals will be randomly summoned!]

A bright light fell from the sky.

One more hit! They only needed one more hit to kill Minhyuk. Alexander, with blood dripping down his head, immediately ordered the nearest weapon to Minhyuk to attack. However, the light that fell from the sky was faster.

The most brilliant and blinding light in the world flashed as someone appeared before Minhyuk. This light slowly extended and wrapped around Minhyuk’s entire body.

[You have summoned Absolute Saintess Loyna.]

[Absolute Saintess’ Healing.]

[Your HP has recovered by 25%.]

The vassal who was summoned was Loyna, who was busy tending the plants of Minhyuk’s Garden. She, who appeared with her floral pants, boots, and straw hat, immediately helped Minhyuk recover.

[Your HP has fallen below 3%.]

Alexander smiled bitterly amidst the constant attacks of the swords of the Heavenly Sword. He was not the type of person who blamed luck.

‘Luck is possessed by those who are thoroughly prepared.’

A deep bitterness engulfed Alexander, who was now turning into ashes. At that moment, he caught sight of the indescribably complicated expression on Minhyuk’s face. He could tell that the man was neither happy nor sad.

Then, Alexander thought, ‘What if I was the one in Minhyuk’s shoes?’

As someone who sat on the throne of the Supreme, Minhyuk had to meet the expectations of the masses. Not only that, he also had to carry the heavy responsibility for the lives of others. And even if he thought that he had reached the end of his path, he still had to move on and find a new beginning.

After thinking about the expectations and burden that someone in Minhyuk’s position carried, Alexander vowed to become better and go even further than where he was now.

He clenched his fist as he looked at Minhyuk and said, “You are the true Supreme.”

Finally, Alexander disappeared. At that moment, a series of notifications rang all over the world.

[All of the players have been wiped out in Slaughter Island.]

[No one was able to take away the position from him.]

[The name of the Slaughter Island will now be changed to Supreme Island.]

[Supreme Island is now under the possession and jurisdiction of Minhyuk.]

[A reward will be given to all of the players who participated in the Slaughter Island event.]

[A new ingredient better than the Origin Hanwoo Set will be provided.] [1]

[You will be provided with the Supreme Hanwoo Set.]

[After several discussions, Joy Co. Ltd. will give you additional rewards and compensations.]

[You have acquired the Title: Supreme.]

1. Initially, the promise was the Origin ingredient, better than the Athenae ingredient. Now it’s an even better one ☜
