The person with the X token in front of them was none other than Black Mage Ali. Black Mage Ali was also heading towards the Demon Worlds Tower for the same reason as Black Dragon. Not too long ago, he became a candidate for the Royal Class like him.
Black Mage Alis former job class was going to be transferred to the Royal Class Great Mage Moldorons Descendant. Moldoron was also a great mage that was on par with Great Mage Rafielt. Great Mage Moldoron was also known as the father and role model of all mages.
Right now, he could tell who and what these people were after from what they had just said earlier.
How dare you try to harm my friend
For Ali, Minhyuk was his benefactor. He was the one who had helped him climb into the Hall of Kings. He was also the one who helped him overcome his limitations which enabled him to widen the gap with Alex, the worlds number one mage. He also liked Minhyuks friendly smile and pleasant attitude.
There was also one thing. Once a user stepped foot in the Demon World, information would appear in Athenaes official webpage.
This was the information
[Due to the thick magi in the Demon World, God Vadess power, a power that punishes those who kill other people, does not have any influence in this area.]
One could imply that God Vades was the god of Chaotic. In other words, if he did not have any influence in this area, then PK between users was allowed and killing others would not result in a chaotic state.
So they must have come for this reason.
The Demon World is a place where users can compete against each other.
Most of the people who came to the Demon Worlds entrance were usually representatives and top rankers of their own countries. And there was only one thing the rankers of each country wanted to do
I want to quickly compete with the rankers from all over the world. I hope the server consolidation finishes quickly!
And the content that will relieve the itch from the itching users was none other than the Demon World.
Look here. Get out of here if you dont want to get hurt.
Archs face distorted as he growled at Ali.
He did not know who he was but a mage and a melee class user were both on different ends of the spectrum. Mages were people with extremely low AGI, STR and defense. When they exert their power, most of the time, they would showcase a wide-area of attack skill. Also, most of their magic skills needed time before they could be casted. Since mages had low AGI and took quite a long time before they could start, melee characters could easily deal with them. For that reason, he believed that the mage in front of him that was garbed in a rugged black robe was an opponent that could be dealt with easily. He could easily do a 3 second cut on him.
Then, the man spoke.
I will not forgive anyone who tries to harm my friend.
…….What an otaku-like line.
Archs lips curled into a smile at the absurd line that he had heard. However, that smile was soon erased from his smug face.
When Ali swung his staff, a powerful force came from the staff and slammed on Arch.
Baaaaang
……!
Just as Arch was thrown back by the force, the melee class tankers flooded towards Ali. It seemed like they had an extremely fast response speed.
Flash
At the same time, Ali turned into a black current as he disappeared from his original spot. Then, he reappeared right next to the man who was reaching for himself earlier.
Energy bolt.
Bwahahahaha! What can you do with an energy bolt!
But before the guy could even finish his words
Baaaaang
The man flew back with a loud explosion.
Keoheok!
[You have received an electric shock and have been stunned for 2 seconds.]
The energy bolt was the most basic magic that was given to a user that had just transitioned to the mage class. This skill was well known for its ability to stun the enemy from the electric current caused by the spell. However, a mage needed to have a magical attack power that was five times higher compared to an opponent to achieve a stun and it would usually only last for one second.
But what is the situation right now?
What was worse was that his HP was slashed down by 30% after being hit with just a single energy bolt.
That was the moment when the other guild members had tried to narrow the distance between them and the enemy. Just as they were about to get near, Alis curled index finger unfolded. Then, the lightning power that was collected at the tip of his finger was unleashed. It attacked the approaching guild members and left them in a stunned state. In other words, it also hit the stunned Gerron.
Crackle
Keoheok!
Then, the notifications rang for Gerron once more.
[You have been hit with an Energy Bolt.]
[You have received an electric shock and have been stunned for 2 seconds.]
Sh, shit! I was stunned again!
Although stun was already subjected to a five-fold magical attack power proportion, it was also entirely up to probability.
But I got it again?
And when the guild members tried to narrow the distance again
Baaaaaaang
Alis regenerated energy bolt hit Gerron once more.
Keuaaaack!
The guild members faltered as they made eye contact with him. They decided to abandon Gerron. However, Ali expected this outcome too.
Flash
Black Mage Ali shot another energy bolt at Gerron before disappearing in a black current.
Baaaaaaang
[You have been hit with an Energy Bolt.]
[You have received an electric shock and have been stunned for 2 seconds.]
[You have been forced to log out.]
Gerron was a high leveled user but he died under the attack of a basic magic. But his opponent was someone that was already at a terrible level. When Ali became a candidate for the Royal Class Great Mage Moldorons Descendant he received an effect that raised his stats as well as his Magic Combination. And the energy bolts that he had shot out were energy bolts that were transformed to a more powerful version compared to the normal ones. This was the effect of his extremely high INT stat as well as making use of his Constant Skills Maximized Efficiency. And since he learned Magic Combination, he would become more powerful in the future.
The guild members all sent their attacks.
[Cannon Bomb]
[Quickly drops off a powerful explosion akin to a dragons rampage.]
[Banging Snatch]
[You will move as fast as a ghost to grab the enemy. Once grabbed, you will be able to slam them to the ground causing 200% damage.]
They had been narrowing down the distance while using their skills and techniques. But then, Ali disappeared in a black current again.
Shwaaaaaaa
When he appeared, he was on top of them accompanied by dozens of energy bolts.
Bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang
The dozens of energy bolts rained down on the users like bombs dropping from aircrafts.
[You have been hit with an Energy Bolt.]
[You have received an electric shock and have been stunned for 2 seconds.]
[You have been hit with an Energy Bolt.]
[You have received an electric shock and have been stunned for 2 seconds.]
[You have been hit with an Energy Bolt.]
[You have received an electric shock and have been stunned for 2 seconds.]
Th, this is crazy!
What kind of ridiculous case is this!!!
Keoheok!!!
All they could do was stare in astonishment. Only half of the users that were hit with the energy bolt had been stunned. However, this showed the clear difference between the Royal Class candidates and the non-Royal Classes.
Then, Alis staff moved.
Shit! Saved magic!
And with the movement of his staff, three gigantic firestorms appeared and engulfed the stunned guild members.
Crackleeee!
Crackle!
Crackleee!
Keu, kueaaaaack!
Ugh, aaaaaaack!
Black Mage Ali was a fraudulent user.
It was clear that between the melee classes and the mage classes, the melee classes looked down on the mage classes that they could easily defeat. However, he was able to ignore this fact with the decisive aid of his blink and energy bolts.
Originally, blink was a magic with a long cooldown. However, among his newly acquired skills, there was a skill that significantly reduces the cooldown of a target skill. Through that ability, he was able to reduce the cooldown of his blink to 1/5th of the original cooldown.
In just an instant, more than ten of the guild members had died under his hands.
Just as Ali was about to use magic again
Craaaaaaaaaaaack
The sound of something breaking rang loudly. Ali keenly felt the incoming danger so he quickly created shields.
Shield! Shield! Shield! Shield! Shield!
Shields formed one layer after the other around him!
Then, he saw what was flying towards him. It was none other than Arch, the guild master of this guild and a user in the fighter class.
[Winding Kick]
[Ignore 40% of the enemys defense while dealing 200% additional damage to your penetrating kicks.]
Flash
A bright light erupted when the kick collided with the shield.
Crack
A crack appeared in Black Mage Alis shield. It seemed like his attack could even deal damage to the mage who was well known for his defensive magic.
Baaaaaang
Ali quickly used blink and avoided the attack.
Flash
Arch swung his fist at a tremendous speed.
Baaaaaang
Ali quickly moved his staff, piling up one shield after another on top of his staff. The shields then collided with the incoming fist.
Crack
You bastard! Youre Black Mage Ali!
That was when Arch realized who he was.
It was a fact that Alex was the official top mage ranker in the world. However, he was told that there was a mage user who had reached a level that was higher than him. He heard that he played a huge role during the invasion of the demons in South Korea.
But regardless of that, there were a lot of rankers who were only known in their own countries. Such rankers were rarely known by the rankers from other countries.
He could only guess who he was because he had heard that Alex is not the best mage in the world.
Meanwhile, Ali only laughed with the staff in his hand.
Why the hell are you doing this to us!!!
Then, Ali answered him.
Im not going to let you touch my friend.
Shwaaaaaaaa!
Then, a huge spell suddenly appeared around Ali. Arch couldnt help but be shocked.
D, dont tell me!
In the past, there was information posted in Athenaes official website about the method on how mages could compensate for their close combat disadvantage. However, it also announced that only the best among the best could use this technique. This technique required the user to achieve the final peak of the 8th class as well as having a huge pool of mana.
The ability to make up for their shortcomings was none other than
Do, double casting…?!
Casting other spells while secretly preparing for a wide-area of attack skill. And Ali did it.
Lightning Storm.
Crack, crack, crack
Bang, bang, bang, bang
A huge lightning storm engulfed Arch who had just right around the corner.
Keuaaaaaaaack!
***
A small smile hung around Callauhels lips.
[You have achieved the 30th floors new record.]
[You have acquired additional clues about the Royal Class Destruction Maestro.]
He was also one of the candidates for a Royal Class. The conditions for the Royal Class were different from user to user. In Callauhels case, he needed to achieve a new record on the Demon Worlds 30th floor.
And just like that, a clue was laid in front of him.
Flutter
[Hunt Cerberus, the Demon Worlds gatekeeper, on the 34th floor.]
Callauhel nodded his head.
Now, he had two choices. Hunt Cerberus and move on to the Royal Class or wait for another clue to emerge.
However, there was one thing that he was sure of. He could feel it down to his very core. He would soon be a Royal Class.
Perhaps the new Royal Class will be announced with a World Message.
Just as he was about to move on
[Bachur: Callauhel-nim, this is Bachur. Im the 1st Magic Commander of the Golden Staff Guild. Many of our guild members are receiving huge damages from an unknown tamer with a dragon right now.]
……?
Callauhels face was filled with confusion.
A tamer with a dragon? Are you telling me that all of the members of Golden Staff are having a hard time?
[Callauhel: Whats the situation?]
He received a reply about five minutes later.
[Bachur: I was eventually forced to log out. There are about 30 guild members who were forced to log out by a mentally challenged boy and a dragon tamer.]
He was left speechless for a while. And just as he was about to send a whisper back
[Casio: Callauhel-nim, Black Mage Ali has suddenly launched an assault on us.]
……!
Callauhel, someone who collected information about all of the rankers in the world, knew who Black Mage Ali was. Ali was the mage that Alex couldnt even grab the hems of.
Why is he attacking the members of Blackstone?
[Callauhel: Your situation]
Callauhel couldnt even finish his whisper.
[The user Anonymous, who broke the first floors new record, has been born to the world.]
[There is a significant gap with the previous record.]
Callauhels eyes widened in shock. Someone broke the record that he was confident and proud of.

TLs corner!
And the record breaking and food collecting begins!!!
