Chapter 186 – Subjugation
I just believe in the quest message without thinking, and George is not a person with no concept.
Maybe you don’t know
Maybe innocent guys.
But I just couldn’t get over it.
There are 7 people, so 7 skill points.
The reward was fine.
A verification process was required.
Black magicians worship demons and demon lords.
I heard that you make a contract with the existence of the demon realm and receive power from them to use magic.
The reason Liliana looks down on warlocks is because they aren’t the power she accumulated through her own efforts.
Luna told me that those who are connected to demons and demon lords through contracts cannot swear at the demon lord.
“How is it, demon lord bastard, isn’t it easy? If not, attack. You can do it without being stabbed, right? He is the Demon King, the disaster of the world. Demon King dog. Why not?”
“…You will regret it.”
His eyes shine red under the slightly raised hood. Dark magic pulsated around them.
“M-Magi!!”
Luna screamed in surprise.
At the same time, the world stopped.
No, I raised my senses to the extreme.
A world slowed down to the limit.
It feels like the time around you has stopped.
It was the effect of my expanded cognitive ability and accelerated thinking.
The number of people was quite large.
They’re probably all black magicians.
Wizards need to be careful.
However, it goes without saying if it is a black magician who has signed a contract with an existence in the Pandemonium that is more dangerous than a magician.
There were children to protect, so I had no intention of taking my time while doing clumsy magic.
Taking a step forward in the accelerated world, he created a greatsword with magic.
Ignis was the only one who noticed my movements.
She moved her body in step with me.
The only ones moving in this accelerated world are Ignis and I.
The hooded guy with glowing red eyes wasn’t even aware of my movements.
I slashed my greatsword at the top of his head.
The greatsword, which had dug into the head like a cut, pierced the top of his head and came out cleanly through his groin.
Looking to the side, Ignis was sticking a spear into one of the guys’ heads.
They cut the necks of defenseless bastards who were unaware of our movements in a time that seemed to stand still and split their bodies in half.
The heightened senses returned to normal, and the seemingly stopped world also returned to normal.
“Porridge… ! Uh?”
The warlock tried to say something, but blood leaked vertically from his face and his body split in half and fell to the floor.
-Dump. Dump.
The rest of them too had their heads cut off belatedly, and their torso split and they tumbled across the ground.
Kill in an instant.
It was the scene of a gruesome mutilation.
“Bah, what just…”
Ayla was surprised by what happened in an instant, her mouth opening up.
“I didn’t know what to do, so I handled it quickly.”
〈Acquired 6 skill points.〉
Pleasant system notifications.
‘Uh? But it seems that the number of points is not enough? One two…’
I counted the corpses of the black magicians.
7 people got hit.
However, 6 skill points came in.
‘He didn’t die?’
If you’re human, you have no choice but to die.
No, it was a fatal wound that would have killed even a zombie.
-Yes, this guy…I don’t know how he knew, but he knows he won’t die gracefully!
Absurdly, the polite leader warlock who had been split in half was attached again. And he quickly absorbs the corpses of the dead.
Then, a hideous 5-meter-long monstrous giant made of red flesh was born.
-Kuong!!
The monster giant let out a roar like a beast.
“Go, senior contractor!!”
“That human seems to have signed a contract with at least a high-ranking demon!!”
Luna and Ayla screamed in astonishment.
It was apparently cut in half and died.
But he came back to life.
With that level of immortality, the weaker ones would be tempted.
But even so, it didn’t feel like a big threat.
“Lord. I will handle it!”
Ignis ran into the hideous monstrous giant.
The fist of the monstrous giant struck Ignis down.
She blocked that big fist with a round shield.
Given the difference in her size, her actions seemed like her feeble struggles.
– Sigh!
But rather, the ugly giant’s fist that hit the shield is crushed.
Blocking the giant’s fist, Ignis thrusts her spear into the giant’s chest.
A window with a swirling light red aura.
-Pop!
The spear fired by Ignis pierced a huge hole in the monster giant’s chest.
Even so, the monster didn’t die and tried to hug Ignis and hold on to it.
This time, at some point, the head of the monster giant disappeared.
Ignis pierced the chest with a spear and then burst the monster’s head one after another.
The body of the monstrous giant who lost his head collapsed intact.
-Thud.
It was meaningless to have come back to life, and Ignis died in an instant.
However, there was no response to the message.
‘…They’re not coming in?’
The quest didn’t specify how many to deal with. Originally, there were six of them, and one wasn’t a follower of the Demon King?
…Still, you never know.
“Luna, please turn on the lights.”
“Ah, I get it.”
Luna, who noticed my intentions, lit the monster’s body on fire with magic.
A flaming corpse.
“Hmm…”
Why are the points not coming in?
After all, wasn’t that guy a follower of the Demon King?
But doesn’t that also make sense?
I even transformed into a bizarre…
“Unho, how did you know? Are they black magicians?”
As she was contemplating the missing skill points, Luna asked.
“…Just?”
The system told me
No, is what the system told me correct?
I got a feeling that maybe it wasn’t the system.
Feeling uncomfortable about the skill points that don’t come in.
That’s why I’m dying here, but I can’t find an answer.
After burning the monster’s corpse, we left.

The place where Unho and the others left.
From the burnt corpse, the black flesh clumped together and formed a human form.
Darkly burned and tattered skin.
Only the red eyes were shining brightly on the ugly body that barely maintained a human form.
“These… Poisonous bastards…”
Somehow they knew that they were black magicians. In addition, it was not enough to kill them, so they even burned them thoroughly.
The ones who were absurdly strong were the second most terrible ones.
“Oh, come on. Go to Bloa…”
It was then.
The black magician’s heart was pierced by an unusually shaped spear that flew in from somewhere.
“Aagh!!!”
The warlock, with a spear lodged in his chest, rolled on the floor in pain.
It was dangerous.
He used up the power of resurrection obtained through the contract.
“As expected, the lord said. You’re a weirdo.”
“Uh, how…”
“I do not know either. I just did as my lord commanded.”
Ignis carelessly pulled the spear from the warlock’s chest and pierced his head with a spear.
-Puck!
“Turn it off! No!!!”
– Puss…
The black magician screamed and disappeared like sand breaking.
「Ignis: As expected, it was as the lord said. Came back to life Judging by his reaction, it looks like he died cleanly this time.”
「Unho: Good job Ignis. Come back.”
「Ignis: Got it. Lord.”
Ignis glanced at the place where the warlocks were scattered and moved his steps towards his master.
*

*
Just in case, I hid Ignis and left.
And the results appeared.
〈Acquired 1 skill point.〉
The awkward feeling was gone.
‘As expected, this guy isn’t dead.’
Although he seemed completely dead because he killed him when he came back to life this time.
Is there any way to kill it at once?
In normal games, something like a priest would be rat poison… I know that there are priests like priests in this world.
Long if long, short if short.
Several things happened in the labyrinth.
What is surprising is that he has never met a normal person after entering the 10th floor of the labyrinth.
There was no place that was such a dead end.
‘Are all the guys in the fortress just insane?’
Still, the performance wasn’t bad because I had enough points to raise the physical strengthening skill.
With light steps, I embarked on the path of return toward the mansion where my maids were waiting.

Verna Percuna is unexpectedly reunited with her old mentor.
It’s been quite a while since we broke up.
Although she ran away rather than broke up.
Unfortunately, Liliana was still alive.
It can be said that the teacher was attached to him, so things went wrong. The reason why the master was attached to him was roughly guessed.
The road to transcendence.
It will be to go one step higher.
Quite a long time has passed since Verna was stagnant in the 8th circle.
Verna’s desire to raise her level grew as time passed. How much more could she be full of greed for her teacher, Liliana, who had lived longer than herself.
He is a Transcendentalist who is said to be in the Empire, but he himself cannot meet.
The anticipation that by meeting him here, I might get a clue to take a leap forward.
So, after receiving his information, I came to him in a hurry.
It was risky to meet the transcendental person carelessly. However, the teacher seemed to have a close relationship with him. Then he couldn’t give up even more.
You must enter the path of transcendence before your teacher.
The fact that he was with a woman with an eccentric personality meant that the personality of a transcendental person was unexpectedly not difficult.
‘If I were a Transcendentalist, I would have beaten him to my heart’s content long ago. Or not…’
Did you say your name was Unho?
Reportedly, it is said that she turns out to be quite a woman.
‘Liliana… Maybe… Seduced with his body? That Liliana with her body? There’s no way that’s the case with her personality…’
It’s her face that’s smooth, so it might just be what he likes to light up a woman.
Even if that is the case, wouldn’t the younger self have more competitiveness?
-Smart.
The knocking sound broke Verna’s thoughts.
“Lady Perkuna. This is Alan.”
“Come in.”
Said Alan, kneeling in front of her Verna.
“Lady Perkuna. I heard that he just came out of the labyrinth.”
The time has finally come.
Verna raised her body from her seat, her pale blue eyes shining.
