The Overlord of Blood and Iron Chapter 107

Chapter 107

Chapter 107 . Valhalla Dungeon (pt . 3)

This was definitely a big crisis for Kang Chul-In .

If he got hit by the Vortex, the body part that was struck would definitely be torn off .

But what if it was the Mega Vortex?

… He would die if even the slightest bit of it touched him .

In the past, Lucy was able to use this powerful authority of her’s to wipe out over 10,000 soldiers of Alex Rothschild in one blow .

He had to dodge it .

Unless he wanted to be swept up by the winds and ripped into shreds, Kang Chul-In had to dodge the Mega Vortex .

“KANG CHUL-INNNNNNN!!”

Listening to Dorian’s fierce roar, Kang Chul-In activated the second phase of Overdrive .

Bang!

The mana inside of his body started to rampage…

Badum .

Badum! Badum!

And the beating of his heart started to disperse the mana throughout his body .

I can dodge it . I’m fast, and I… have no limits .

Hypnotising himself, Kang Chul-In tricked himself into believing that he wasn’t the level 40 Kang Chul-In right now, but rather Kang Chul-In in his prime .

His leg muscles contracted to their limits, and the phase two Overdrive allowed Kang Chul-In to transcend the limits of his body .

BANG!

Creating a sonic boom, Kang Chul-In ‘distorted’ the s.p.a.ce around him . He had shown the most he could, no, more than what his most should be able to show .

“Kang… Chul-In?”

Dorian was startled . Kang Chul-In was no longer anywhere to be seen .

But there was no more time to be startled .

It was because the Mega Vortex that had been aiming for Kang Chul-In hit the ground, and created a huge tornado that ripped apart the Valhalla plaza .

“Agh!”

Screaming pitifully, Dorian was. .h.i.t by flying debris and smashed against a nearby wall .

“What in h.e.l.l…”

Looking around, everything was in ruins .

“Kang Chul-In… What about Kang Chul-In?”

Dorian quickly looked for his comrade .

“Kang Chul-In!!!”

Shouting while looking through the rubble, Dorian looked for Kang Chul-In . And…

“Kang . . . Chul-In?”

He was able to find Kang Chul-In, who was pointing Kaiforce at Lucy’s neck .

---

“It’s over . ”

Kang Chul-In said .

However, Lucy’s answer disappointed him .

“I… am an unstoppable existence . ”

“Unstoppable?”

“You must know too… My life force is no longer here . ”

“ . . . There might be an opportunity . ”

“Will there be one though?”

Lucy faintly smiled .

Swoosh…

She started scattering into dust particles . First it was just parts of her, and then it was her entire body--- purplish particles in the shape of a dark elf .

And finally, she was gone .

“Go . ”

Kang Chul-In hoped the best for his former subordinate in the afterlife .

He didn’t apologize for discarding her . It was because he still didn’t regret choosing Laputa over Valhalla .

If I hadn’t had been defeated, this would have never happened .

Instead, the desire to take revenge on his previous life became even more intense .

Everything started that day when they had lost the war .

So…

This time, I won’t fail .

He didn’t want to see any more suffering from his subordinates .

I won’t lose anymore .

Kang Chul-In promised himself .

“Kang Chul-In . ”

At that moment, a stiff voice interrupted Kang Chul-In’s thoughts . It was Dorian, who seemed to have a lot of questions to ask .

“Who… are you?”

“No . Not right now . ”

“ . . . Will I ever be able to hear the truth from you?”

“Maybe another day . ”

“But…”

Dorian suddenly pointed to where Lucy had vanished .

“What’s that?”

Kang Chul-In instinctually followed Dorian’s finger, to where…

The Core of the Abyss…

It was the core, which Kang Chul-In had given to Lucy in the past .

Walking closer to it, Kang Chul-In stretched his arms towards it .

The grey bluish sphere that was the Core slowly dissipated, being absorbed into Kang Chul-In’s body .

With that, Kang Chul-In was able to obtain Vortex .

[You have learned ‘Tempest: Vortex’ Level 1 (Maximum Level 5)]

[Tempest: Vortex is extremely compatible with Lord Kang Chul-In . ]

[+30% Mastery]

[Tempest: Vortex has been increased to Level 3]

[When you reach Level 5, you will be able to use ‘Mega Vortex’ . ]

Arsh.e.l.ly was having a wonderful experience every day in Seoul, South Korea .

Although she was unable to enter elementary school because she still didn’t have some common knowledge, she was able to quickly absorb the things she looked at and studied .

Arsh.e.l.ly was smart, sensible, and most of all, could learn 100 when she was only taught 1 . If geniuses in this world existed, Arsh.e.l.ly would definitely be considered as one .

But just as most geniuses have problems within their lives, Arsh.e.l.ly did too . Recently, she had gotten bullied in the Piano Academy she went to .

The reason… was because she was too talented .

“S-She… She must be a genius!”

Even the piano teacher who had attended the famous ‘Berklee School of Music’ thought that she was a genius .

It had to be so .

Who wouldn’t be surprised if a 9-year-old girl that had only been learning piano for a week memorized not only all of the musical scores in the academy, but also all the notes on the piano?

That wasn’t even it .

She had a perfect pitch which allowed her to copy any song perfectly after listening to it once, confusing everyone on how such a genius came to be .

“Hey!”

One day, when the piano teacher had left for just a while, a girl called Park Seul-Gi suddenly shouted at Arsh.e.l.ly .

“How can I help you?”

Arsh.e.l.ly answered politely .

“You… you don’t have a dad, right?”

But Park Seul-Gi laughed .

“No . ”

Arsh.e.l.ly continued to respond calmly .

“I also have a wonderful dad . It’s just that he’s busy and can’t come to pick me up right now . ”

“Stop lying!”

“I’m not lying…”

“Ha! Be quiet . You don’t even have a dad . You liar . ”

“Hmm… you can think of it in that way if you want . Do as you like . ”

Arsh.e.l.ly spoke one last time to Park Seul-Gi, and put her fingers back on the piano .

“HEY!!”

Because Arsh.e.l.ly ignored her, Park Seul-Gi screamed in rage . She then . . .

“You little…”

Started grabbing onto Arsh.e.l.ly’s pitch-black hair…

“How dare you ignore me!”

“Oww…”

And started pulling .
