Right at that moment…

Bang, bang, bang!

Magic rained down on Rhond.

“Keuaaaack!”

Rhond was blown away from the huge impact.

When Minhyuk turned around, he saw Black Mage Ali.

“Frieeeeeeend!!”

Ali raised his left arm that had an X drawn on it as he smiled cheerfully at him. Seeing his raised arm, Minhyuk also raised his arm that had an X on it high up in the sky.

“Frieeeeeeend!!”

Meanwhile, Black Dragon looked at them with an impressed expression on his face.

Isn’t that so cool!!!

“Frieeeeend!!!”

“Frieeeeeeeeend!!!”

Black Dragon and the Boys who watched the two of them also raised their left arms as they shouted along. And the members of Legend Guild hesitated for a moment when they saw what they did.

‘Shit…… I’m, I’m so embarrassed.’

‘Ca, calling out frieeeend……’

‘Uhmm……’

But when Ascar raised her arm, the rest of them raised their arms one by one.

“Frieeeeeeeeeend!!!”

The tides of war were changing.

When Minhyuk turned to look back at the battlefield, he saw Prince Argon firing an arrow that split into hundreds of arrows that easily swept the enemies. In addition, the ancient soldiers together with the 150 knights were all actively fighting against the enemies. But they were still plagued with a huge horde of enemies.

Minhyuk did not save any skills when dealing with Rhond, the Bone Dragon Lord, and the hundreds of enemies that were rushing towards him from behind them.

“Fluttering Sword.”

The Fluttering Sword first created hundreds of silver falling leaves. And when Minhyuk moved his sword, the hundreds of blade-like leaves rushed towards the Bone Dragon Lord and Rhond before sweeping the enemies that were further behind them.

Fwoosh, fwoosh, fwoosh, fwoosh, fwoosh, fwoosh—

And it did not just stop there. Thanks to the 60% reduction in skill buffer, Minhyuk was able to use his wide-area of attack skills quite quickly.

Blooming Sword.

Stab, stab, stab, stab, stab—

Bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang—!

In no time at all, the hundreds of demons and demonic beasts that flocked towards them died.

Meanwhile, the commentators were shouting in excitement.

[Ah!!! Upon his arrival he killed the Bone Dragon Lord and the Slayer of Death. He even wiped out the hundreds of surging demons and demonic beasts!!!]

[It’s amazing!!! But, if he used all his skills in the beginning then won’t he be at a disadvantage in this large-scale war?]

Then, the notifications rang in Minhyuk’s head.

[You have hunted the largest amount of demons and demonic beasts in the shortest amount of time.]

[You have acquired an additional 40,000 contribution points.]

[You have successfully hunted the Slayer of Death.]

[You have gained 4,162,031 EXP.]

[You have leveled up.]

[You have acquired 340,501 contribution points.]

[You have acquired Death’s Crystal Ball.]

[You have successfully hunted the Bone Dragon Lord.]

[You have acquired the Bone Dragon Lord’s Sturdy Bone (5kg).]

[You have acquired 151,167 contribution points.]

[You have acquired 54 platinum.]

That was when Minhyuk realized something.

‘The Slayers are not affected by my holy power.’

In other words, there wouldn’t be any additional % in his attack or defense that he could gain against the demonic humans and the undead. The reason for this was simple. It was because they were creatures that were created by Rufel and they did not possess any magi.

Then……

[The silver and sparkling hellhounds have appeared once more!]

[Hundreds of hellhounds are running again!]

[Aaaaaah! User Minhyuk! Are you going to be forced to log out as soon as you appear?!]

[The silver hellhounds have extremely high defensive power!]

[No matter what, they are creatures that are not easy to hunt!]

[At this moment, Black Mage Ali had descended from the sky to talk to User Minhyuk!]

“It’s been a long time.”

Ali reached out his hand and Minhyuk clasped it tightly.

“Thanks. Thank you for protecting my guild and my dad.”

“I just did what I could do.”

Ali grinned at him.

Then, Minhyuk handed him a sheet of ‘Elf’s Character HP, MP, Skill Cooldown Reset Parchment’. Fortunately, this item could be transferred. It was because Ali was the one who needed this item the most.

“Wow. There’s such a great item like this……?”

At that time, Minhyuk saw hundreds of flashing silver hellhounds. Ali quickly explained to him what they were like. After listening to his explanation, Minhyuk pondered for a moment before speaking.

“Let’s get them first. Please prepare a barrier.”

“A barrier? Not a wide-area of attack magic?”

Ali looked at him curiously.

“I’ll explain it in time……”

Right now, the hellhounds were running furiously towards them. Meanwhile, the members of Legend Guild and Black Dragon and the Boys had yet to complete their maintenance.

Bbbiiiiiiiiiiii—

Minhyuk ran out while using the Gryphon’s Cry. Hundreds of silver hellhounds changed their direction as they ran towards Minhyuk.

Gallop— gallop!

Just in time, Kongie, who was riding on top of the white horse, arrived near him. Minhyuk hurriedly rode on the horse as he started to kite and lead the hundreds of silver hellhounds.

***

The viewers were leaving comments quickly.

[Legend Guild and Black Dragon and the Boys faced off against the silver hellhounds earlier. They were only able to deal with them after using their best fatal skill. What’s he going to do?]

[What can the Frying Pan Killer do? How can he get that number? He just used all of his skills earlier but he was only able to do so since he can handle the defenses of the demons and demonic monsters. Those guy’s defensive power is on a completely different level.]

[Will the Frying Pan Killer ride on his white horse as he runs with hundreds of mobs and hellhounds following him towards the end of the world? Hehehehehe.]

PD Kim Daeguk also looked at the viewers’ comments seriously.

He knew that his appearance was spectacularly good but the question was about what he would do with the hundreds of hellhounds. Minhyuk continued to circle around the area as he kited the hundreds of silver hellhounds.

“Can he kill them……?”

“……How can he kill them? Legend Guild was only able to deal with them after using their one-shot skill. Everything will be over if User Minhyuk is caught just once. Imagine being caught in such a mob after doing something completely reckless.”

Everyone thought of the same thing. But just when they were mocking Minhyuk for quite some time, one of the black kitchen knives that were circling around Minhyuk’s body appeared in front of him.

“Skill casting?”

The PD tilted his head in confusion. When he thought about it, he had never seen a black kitchen knife before.

Then, at that moment……

Minhyuk started to shout something.

At the same time, Black Mage Ali quickly descended before grabbing him and climbing high up in the sky again.

***

‘What the hell are you thinking?’

Ali, who was preparing to cast a barrier, tilted his head in thought. That was when Minhyuk shouted at him to grab him before flying up in the sky.

Ali quickly descended before grabbing a hold of him and flying back up again.

“Please go towards the center of those guys.”

“What? Over there?”

Ali glanced down and saw hundreds of silver hellhounds scattered around as they stared at Minhyuk and Minhyuk alone.

However, Ali did what he was told. Once they came to the center, Minhyuk spoke to him again.

“Please drop me.”

“Wh, what?”

“Quick. Ali-nim, I believe you!”

“……I don’t really know anymore!”

Ali, who grabbed Minhyuk tightly, let go of his hold.

At the same time, Minhyuk fell down in the center of the hellhounds at a high speed.

[Th, the Frying Pan Killer has descended in the middle of hundreds of hellhounds!!!]

[What in the world is he thinking?! They detonate as soon as they get touched!!!]

[Their explosive power is extremely tremendous. I’m sure that we will not even be able to find the shape of the Frying Pan Killer in the aftermath!]

[Huuuuuuh? But what is that?!]

[A kitchen knife?!]

Then, a kitchen knife appeared near the descending Minhyuk. It was a skill that had never been seen by any of the commentators and viewers. Meanwhile, the hundreds of hellhounds bared their teeth towards the falling Minhyuk.

“Grrrrrrrr!”

“Roaaaar!”

“Kyaaaaack!”

And with his fall, a light flashed in the sky as a black knife accurately struck the head of one of the hellhounds.

“Kiheeeeeeek!”

Hundreds of kitchen knives started to rain down as soon as one of the hellhounds collapsed.

Stab, stab, stab, stab, stab, stab, stab—

[M, magnificent!]

[The kitchen knives that rained down from the sky stabbed through the bodies of the hellhounds!]

[Ah. User Minhyuk has landed on the ground! The hellhounds that had perceived their deaths had started to explode one by one!]

The creatures seemed to have awareness as they started to explode all by themselves. Since they had awareness, they believed that it would be smart if they could die together with their enemy. Anyway, they were already dying so it was a smart move for them to drag down their enemy.

The hellhounds began to crowd together as they trampled on each other to get to the middle of their ranks. The hellhounds continued to swarm towards him amidst the raining kitchen knives. They were so tightly compressed that they even damaged their own race when they exploded.

Once the dust had settled, Ali and Minhyuk could be seen inside a protective circle.

[Ah. When did Ali get there?]

[He used Blink! That’s such a crazy control! It was definitely done in just a flash……!]

[His aggro skill had driven the mobs towards the middle. He allowed them to flock towards where he was. Then, he attacked the gathered mobs with his raining kitchen knives which caused them to explode allowing him to hunt the rest of the hellhounds.]

[I believe User Minhyuk could tell that the hellhounds had awareness and that they would try to explode and kill him in the process. And it’s also impossible to attack when he’s in the barrier so that skill that he used towards the end was done right before the barrier was erected.]

[It’s an extremely formidable strategy. I can’t believe the control that both Users Ali and Minhyuk have. How many users in our country can do that control in just a matter of seconds?]

[That’s not all. Their chemistry is extremely great. I’m sure the viewers of our country will be amazed by the fantastic chemistry that Mage Ali, our country’s top mage, and User Minhyuk, our country’s top close combatant, had shown us!]

[Ah. The hellhounds failed to recognize this fact and they still continued to explode themselves!]

[The Barrier is the best magic for this situation. They will be invincible while they stay inside!]

The hellhounds that kept on exploding finally felt that there was something strange. They finally knew that their explosions were meaningless.

Then, at that moment, Minhyuk spoke to Ali.

“Ali-nim, dissolve the barrier.”

“Yes? Ah, I understand.”

Ali had always believed in Minhyuk so he did what he told him to do. As soon as the barrier disappeared, his kitchen knife went up in the sky once more.

Shwaaaaaaaaa—

It was none other than his skill Rain of Kitchen Knives that he had kept using his ‘save’ skill.

[I, is it possible to use that skill again?]

[C, crazy……!]

Then, the hundreds of kitchen knives in the air stabbed and exploded the remaining hellhounds. At the same time, Ali grabbed Minhyuk as they flew high up in the sky.

“Nice timing! As expected of Ali-nim! You have no hesitations at all.”

“Ha, hahaha……”

Ali laughed awkwardly at his words.

With that, all of the silver hellhounds had been wiped out by the Rain of Kitchen Knives.

[……]

[……]

The commentators were lost for words for a moment. And it wasn’t just them. Even the members of Legend Guild and Black Dragon and the Boys were left speechless.

“……”

“……”

“……”

They were barely able to hunt one but Minhyuk swept them away so easily before quickly moving to Philip Village.

“Hello, everyone?”

“Huh, oh. R, right.”

“Y, you’re here?”

“Hahahaha. H, hello?”

Minhyuk greeted them politely, just like he usually did before looking around Philip Village. Thankfully, the village was still well and alive since only the outer walls had disappeared.

Then, Minhyuk took out the Elf’s Heart, which had the appearance of a rough stone, from his inventory. When he placed it down on the floor, the notifications continued to ring.

[The Elf’s Heart can be applied to Philip Village.]

[Would you like to use it?]

“Yes.”

The Elf’s heart immediately penetrated through the ground as soon as Minhyuk agreed to the notification. This was a military weapon that was created by the three Elf Chiefs.

At that moment, the members of Legend Guild and Black Dragon and the Boys heard a sound.

Ba…… dump—

It was the sound of a beating heart.

[Wh, where did that mysterious sound come from?]

[It sounded like the heartbeat of a giant heart.]

Then, the sound began to grow louder.

Badump, badump, badump, badump, badump, badump—

The sound was loud enough to fill the entire battlefield.

Then……

Bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang!

The commentators were shocked when they heard loud banging sounds ringing so suddenly.

[Wh, what’s that?!!!]

[Heok……!!!]
