Chapter 453: Despair? Finished? (2)

Bang!

Aside from my limited skill Savant, I used the rest of my skills to the best of my ability.

But I had to save Savant because its cooldown was a whopping 10 days unlike my other skills.

Even without my limited skill, I was still enormously strong. So much so that if I had encountered the black liquid man, the owner of the 4th Royal District, right now, and he attempted a similar siege against Argentina, I could vaporize all of his black liquid with just one attack.

Aside from my single-target skills, my AOE skills were demonstrating their magnificent power.

Nonetheless, they didn’t inflict any damage on the Land of Despair.

Pong! Pong! Pong! Pong!

The Land of Despair continued to expand its territory, spewing out something like soap bubbles as if my attacks were not a big deal.

“Oh my God…”

If I noticed even the slightest damage or the Land of Despair retreating even one centimeter, I would have felt tempted to use Savant. But I knew instinctively that even if I used my limited skill Savant, I would not be able to stop the Land of Despair’s expansion.

At that moment, however, I heard some laughter coming from underground of the ever expanding territory of the Land of Despair.

[LOL.]

Then, as if to prove that I was not simply hearing things, a man in the form of a human appeared from the underground and immediately opened his mouth.

[Juyoung Hong, the owners of the Royal Districts have already recognized your strength. So they have decided to abandon everything. Sometimes you have to give up everything you have to gain everything. So wait until this Earth is completely covered with the Land of Despair and changed to the second Kuhana. Then the owners of the Royal Districts will come to get rid of you.]

“Ice Wave!”

I immediately launched an attack against the enemy who was continuously rambling.

Bang! But my attack was in vain because it only pounded on the Land of Despair, and not the enemy who immediately hid back inside the Land of Despair after giving me a long lecture.

The enemy continued to ramble even from the underground.

[LOL. I am part of the Advance Party that has brought the seeds of despair here. I’m going to serve as a nest until the Land of Despair is completed, so you will never kill me, or us at all!]

His voice was full of pride and confidence.

Of course, I wanted to break his confidence, but I didn’t know how to because my attacks were useless in the face of the expanding Land of Despair..

In the end, the Land of Despair, who was still expanding, touched my left foot, and at that moment, a message rang. Of course, I deliberately did not avoid it even though I knew it was approaching me fast.

At first, I was confident that the Land of Despair would not affect me, but now I was not completely sure after my attacks failed to impact it.

[You have ‘All Buffs, All Debuffs’.

-You are in the Land of Despair, but you are not affected by it.]

“…”

Obviously, the Land of Despair had a mighty power that I had never expected.

But in the end, it was blocked by my trait, All Buffs, All Debuffs.

In other words, its power was not as enormous as I thought.

But given all the sacrifices they made to create this Land of Despair, it seemed that I could not smash it altogether. It meant that all people on Earth would perish except for me.

Nonetheless, I was confident of defeating the Land of Despair.

Clearly, the guy said he would serve as the nest for the Land of Despair only while it was expanding as it was now.

But my problem was that I could not call it my victory if everyone else, including my family and those in the Myongjin Shelter, died, and only I survived.

“Oh my God…”

Normally, I wouldn’t express frustration or disappointment, but this time, a sense of resignation consumed me, which seemed to encourage my enemy all the more.

[LOL. Alright, just wait in despair, watching the Land of Despair expand endlessly until they come over.]

Obviously, this was a bleak situation for me. But the first thing I wanted to do was to smash that guy’s mouth right away.

At that moment, something pierced through the Land of Despair all of a sudden.

***

Although I was not helped by the roots from the very start, they have been around me for a long time. So I could proudly say I knew something about the roots.

For example, the roots were greedy about food, or more precisely, they were a glutton that ate everything in sight.

Most recently, the roots grabbed the giant bow possessed by the ruler of the 5th Royal District, and ate it with great delight.

[Denayan’s Wood Sculpture (Unrated)

-It is a part of the Denayan tree, so-called ‘the oldest tree’ because no one knows when it first existed.] f𝘳𝚎𝐞we𝐛𝑛𝐨𝘃e𝘭.co𝘮

Prior to that, the roots caught the black liquid man who was the owner of the 4th Royal District, which was one of the prime Royal Districts consisting of 1st, 2nd, 3rd and 4th Districts, and ate the ‘Fragment of Origin III’ as well.

Of course, I would not call them a glutton if they consumed only such things.

There were much more the roots devoured.

The roots ate the “Ancient Monster Summoning Energy’ that kept summoning monsters to the Myongjin Shelter, and even indirectly ate the “parasite” that I unintentionally absorbed.

In addition, the roots also ate the black mark that was bestowed up one thos who achieved 100% reality actualization rate. In other words, the roots just ate anything that stood in my way until now.

So, did I not appreciate the work of the roots?

Of course, I did, and I appreciated it a lot too.

Since the roots took away the mark that denoted 100% reality actualization rate, I didn’t have to have black tattoos on my body. And it devoured other things that granted me great benefits, like the Ancient Monster Summoning Energy that gave me the formidable monster imprint. In addition, by devouring the ‘Fragment of Origin III’, my monster imprint was upgraded so much that it could not be compared to how it was before at all.

Because of that, I was currently backed up by the huge buffs of 6000 intellect, 3000 willpower, and a 7.5% increase in the damage of all my ice-type skills.

Of course, it would still be beneficial for me even if the roots did not give me all ehse benefits and just became stronger by itself, for the roots were my ally, and it was far from mbad for my ally to be strong

The Roots protected over 10,000 ordinary people for over two months during the Borneche Expedition, and protected the Myongjin Shelter from the Lucia Guild when I was in Kuhana.

Anyway, I could say confidently that the roots were my strongest helper and ally, and it pierced through the Land of Despair that was not even damaged at all by my repeated attacks.

Hanging at the tip of the roots was the guy who kept sneering at me a little while ago.

Wiggle, wiggle.
