Park Taehoon hurriedly ordered as he continued to watch the monitor with his widened eyes.

Bring up the information about the artifact.

Yes, President.

Lee Minhwa hurriedly pulled out the information about the Oven of Destruction the new second Absolute Half-God artifact.

Kang Taehoon was still speaking urgently. Hearing the urgency in his voice, Lee Minhwa hurriedly opened the skill windows on the monitor.

Wow

Its really awesome

The people in the area were looking at it in awe while Production Team Leader Lee Seokhoon spoke up.

Isnt this a bit closer to the 1st Absolute Half-God Artifact???

The Oven of Destruction was excellent to the point that it could be compared to the 1st Absolute Half-God artifact.

Then, Lee Minhwa spoke.

He can use all special abilities and skills just by having them. The artifact could ignore the limit of the skills that one can use. Yes, its excellent. But when you look at the Absolute Half-God artifacts, most of them are weapons. And this oven is not a weapon.

Presiden Kang Taehoon shook his head.

And the Skil Destruction, its an amazing skill that can tie up the strongest power of your enemy for five minutes. If he did that, he could easily tie up the core of users or mob bosses.

Users had yet to encounter these high-leveled monsters. However, the most taxing and demanding aspect of fighting against them was dealing with their power. But if one could seal just one of the monsters strongest powers then they would probably be at an advantage during their raid.

Then, Team Leader Park spoke too.

Theres a skill that User Minhyuk would really like.

And just like Team Leader Park Minggyu had said, Minhyuk was really jumping around with joy in the monitor.

[Yeah!!! I can apply the flavor of charcoal in the oven?! Does that mean that I can add the flavor of Cheongyang chili peppers as long as I add it in the oven? Kgghk! As expected of the 2nd Absolute Half-God artifact!!!]

Just like they expected, Minhyuk was gushing over the Fantastic Oven skill and not the other two skills. Then, Minhyuk continued to speak.

[Shall we go back now?]

***

The name Sun Guild was given after several guilds had combined together. Lee Hoseung, one of the Absolute Best guild masters in the Sun Guild was flustered and in a mess.

Im, Impossible!

After the Legend Guild had first stepped in Lapur, the capital of the Elven Kingdom, the sun guild alliance began to move quickly and follow their momentum. More than 40 rankers stepped forward to pave the road and break the Demon Gods Rock. If they were able to destroy the Demon Gods Rock then they would be able to clear this episode. However, Barach suddenly appeared. With Barachs appearance, Legend Guild decided to step back while their Sun Guild Alliance stepped forward and prepared for an all-out attack. But right now

[Aaaaaaaahhh!!! Most of the users that stepped forward were wiped out by Barachs summoned spells!!!]

[This is an unexpected gruesome spectacle!!!]

[The Demon Gods Knight Barach is he really someone that can be hunted?!]

Lee Hoseung looked around. All of the outstanding rankers of the Sun Guild that fought with him were now all wiped out and forced to log out. The biggest problem that they had encountered was the sweltering heat that Barachs body emitted as well as the Lava Corrosion skill that got activated whenever he swung his sword.

The sweltering heat reduced their magical defense by 40% and the Lava Corrosion skill was like a passive skill that would spout lava whenever he swung his weapon. The skill rapidly reduced the durability of their weapons and armor.

This is our chance!

Attack!!!

Valdar, the Golden Shield, who surprisingly survived the attack earlier shouted. He squeezed the last of his strength as he moved forward with the remaining users that were still alive.

Golden Shields Brilliance!

A golden light appeared in front of his golden shield. Once the golden light was formed, it was fired directly at Barach. The tankers stood in front and did their best to express and trigger their best skills.

Beasts Dash!!!

Fire Dragons Circle!!!

Galloping Sword!!!

But Barach suddenly swung a flaming whip.

Shwaaaaaaaa

The whip easily smashed the tankers best one-shot kill skills before continuing on and devouring the users behind them.

Shwaaa

Ugh, Uaaaaaaack!!

Keuaaaaaack!

Keoheok!

By the end of it all, Valdar was the only one left. However, he was also forced to log out after another attack. The number of users on the frontline that survived Barachs attacks decreased sharply.

However, this fight desperately needed rankers. There was no way that users with lower levels could hunt a being that couldnt be hunted by rankers.

This is the end!

Lee Hoseung couldnt help but mumble to himself. Then, Barach turned to look at him as he reached out his colossal hand. Then, when he clenched his fist

Bang, bang, bang, bang, bang!

Huge explosions bloomed on the ground until they reached where Lee Hoseung was.

At that moment

Gather.

Shwaaaaaaaa

All of the surviving users were sucked and concentrated in one place. And Lee Hoseung was among them.

Gather?

Gather was a tremendously high-leveled magic skill.

A user who knows this magic?

Was it Black Mage Ali?

No, Black Mage Ali is a man. The voice I just heard was the voice of a woman.

Just as that thought flashed through Lee Hoseungs head, he saw the figure of the person who gathered them together.

[Aaaaaaaah! Just before the explosion happened, Alicia arrived!!!]

[The Witch of Agony, Alicia!!! The guild master of one of the Four Great Guilds Artheon!!! She has made a spectacular appearance!!!]

[The rankers who almost got attacked were saved thanks to the Gather skill!!!]

But then, the huge force that bloomed from Barach stretched out and spread out in the surrounding area.

Kuhaaaaaak!

Kuhaaaaaaaaaaak!

Kuhaaaaaaaaaaaaaak!

However, the space in front of Alicia was torn apart as a black shaft with lightning patterns appeared.

[Wh, whats that?!]

[The, the Witch of Agony, Alicia!!!! Shes grabbing the hilt of a sword!!!]

Alicia was smiling deeply.

I really found my way thanks to Minhyuk-nim.

She was the top ranked player in the game Versal, a game that was created before Athenae. Back then, she was a knight. A class who used swords. However, when she came to Athenae, she changed into the mage class. But even though she became a powerful mage, she still faced limitations. That was when she met a user. His name was Minhyuk and he told her.

I dont need to join a guild to chase and seek high level players. I think thats not necessary for me to have fun.

At that time Alicia realized something.

Thats right. Games are meant to be enjoyed.

She looked back at her position as the best mage.

I did not play games because I wanted to be famous. I also did not play games because I wanted to be strong. I came to play games so I can have fun.

She finally found the basics. She realized that she had fun when she was swinging swords. So she also began to use swords. And one day, she heard a notification.

You can now challenge the Royal Class Knight of Agony.

She awakened new skills and became a candidate for the Royal Class. She became even more powerful than before.

And right now, she was slowly slashing her sword in the air. Then

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

Dozens of lightning strikes fell down from the sky and neutralized Barachs lava explosions.

The commentators shouted in excitement.

[Th, the Witch of Agony, Alicia!!! Shes showing us a lot more power than what we thought she had!!!]

[Its incredible!!! The rankers had been struggling to deal with Barachs skill but she easily neutralized it!!!]

Then, she jumped up and ran in the sky.

Dash, dash, dash!

She also sent a whisper.

[Alicia: Genie-nim.]

[Genie: Yes.]

At that moment, he guild members of Legend Guild who had been holding their breaths and watching the situation appeared from all sides.

If we die, this episode ends in our defeat!!!

Genie shouted as the members of Legend Guild nodded their heads in agreement.

For episode events, the direction of Athenaes future depends on whether the users could make it or not. They must recapture the Elven Forest and drive out the demons for their future.

[Jefreets Dash!]

[The crazy priest takes over Jefreets power as he dashes forward!]

Locke rushed forward towards Barach as a huge power surged in his body. Khan also jumped and aimed at Barachs face as he used the skill Giants Back Attack.

Baaaaaang!

Khans body spinned and twisted before landing a punch on Barachs face. As soon as Barach stumbled, Locke, with Jefreets Dash, rushed forward and slammed his stomach.

Baaaaaang

Barach stumbled once again after suffering from one attack after another. Then, a man suddenly appeared in the air. It was none other than Abel the informant.

[Sudden Death]

[Theres a 50% chance that the opponent will be destroyed if you succeed in attacking the top of your opponents head.]

Heeeeeeeup!

The Legend Guilds members held hope. Abels Sudden Death was a skill that gave him a 50% chance of destroying his enemy upon a successful attack.

Khan, Locke, Ascar and Genie rushed to Barach to restrict his movements.

Lets goooooo!

Lets end this!!!

Alicia, the Witch of Agony, also threw a whip to wrap around Barach.

Crack, crack, crack

Just when Abels dagger was about to hit Barachs head

Baaaaaang

[Knights Revolt]

[A strong flame erupts around his body and kills the enemies around him.]

Keuhack!

Keoheok!

Ugh!

The members of Legend Guild that clung to Barach flew away after being pushed back by Barach. The hot lava that his body emitted corroded their artifacts and dwindled their HP at a rapid pace.

[Strong burns put you in a state that is unable to fight.]

[You will die if you dont get treated.]

Even Abel, who was trying to stab him in the head, was pushed away from the sudden explosion of flames on Barachs body.

Goddamnit!

Abel hurriedly checked the surroundings when he fell on the ground. Most of the members of Legend Guild were seriously injured after getting hit by the explosion head on. Then, Barach took a step forward to finish them off.

Damn. There are so many mobs around me that I cant go to them to help.

Alicia was surrounded by the demonic beasts that protected Barach. There was nothing she could do except to watch Barach step forward to cut off the Legend Guilds final breath.

[Lightning Swords Tempest]

[A huge lightning and thunderbolt follows the movement of your sword as it strikes the enemies.]

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

Dozens of lightning bolts fell and struck down the demonic beasts that surrounded her. It even made Barach falter in his steps for a moment.

Alicia tried to take a step forward as she shouted at the members of Artheon that protected her from behind.

Attack them with magic while I try to rescue them to safety!

Then, she quickly dropped to where Genie was. But just as she was about to use Mass Teleport with Genie at the center, Barach suddenly appeared in front of her.

Quick!

Alicia was speechless when he looked back at her guild members.

……!

She did not know when it happened, but Barach had already forced his guild members to log out. She couldnt help but tremble as she watched Barach approach her slowly.

…Thank you for coming to save me.

Genie spoke up as she slowly raised her body.

What?

Unfortunately, this recapture will end in failure.

Genie and Alicia smiled bitterly.

This recapture was already over.

Then, the comments started to run.

[In the end, it seems like theyre going to fail]

[Still, Alicia and the Legend Guild did their best!]

[That Barach is too strong! Isnt this a balance breaker?]

Alicia watched as Barach swung his whip violently.

Is it a level down?

Then, at that moment

Diablos Scythe.

Creaaaaaak!

A huge black scythe appeared in the air. The scythe was connected to an equally large chain. This mysterious scythe immediately rushed towards Barachs chest. Then

Spuuuuurt!

Barachs defense was so tremendous that no one could break through his thick skin. But the black scythe was cleanly lodged on his chest.

Keuaaaaaaaaack!

The bastards grating and horrendous shriek rang loudly in the entire area.

Then, the commentator shouted

[God, God Food God Us, User Minhyuk has appeared!!!]

Then, the man holding the end of the chain pulled his arm back amidst the gaze of all the people present.

Puhaaaaaak!

Creaaaaaaak

Blood spurted out of Barachs chest, just like a fountain that was just discovered. He had successfully recovered the scythe in his hands after pulling the chain back.

This was the splendid return of Minhyuk, who went to the Demon Worlds Tower.
