As Kraken stepped forward, Junhyuk whispered calmly, “Our enemies can stun us, but we already know about that, so we can avoid it.”

The enemy heroes were cautious of the Spatial Slash. They got up to ten meters away from them. Junhyuk could teleport and use his Spatial Slash on Nid or Kilraden, but to do that, he had to be ready to be hit by Kraken.

Unless all the enemies concentrated on Junhyuk, he wouldn’t die. However, he still had to be careful. He was in their castle, after all. The enemies could regain their healths by entering the castle’s force field, so he really had to be focused.

“Regardless of whom I attack, I need an opening.”

The important thing was to kill just one, and Kraken was standing ahead of the others.

Standing behind him, Gongon said, “The problem is the distance.”

Junhyuk and Sarang had attacks with longer ranges than their enemies. However, even if both hit Kraken, Kraken was the one enemy they couldn’t kill immediately.

Junhyuk said calmly, “I know now… If we don’t want to get stunned, we have to make better use of the force field.”

Kraken had now passed the giant golem and still kept walking. Junhyuk realized that Kraken was within range at that point.

“We should ignore our enemies’ powers and use our own instead.”

If the allies could close in while ignoring their enemies’ attacks because of the force field, they would win.

Kraken was now well within range of the Spatial Slash, but Junhyuk hesitated. He didn’t want to kill Kraken, but Kilraden at the back.

Of the enemies, Kilraden could do the most damage, and he also had the most dangerous ultimate. Junhyuk still wasn’t sure about Kilraden’s ultimate. He might be able to make it even stronger with new equipment, but if the damage remained at 45 percent, then the ultimate would actually be rather low rank.

Junhyuk watched as Kraken headed toward him.

“Hold on to me. We’ll teleport and fight.”

Junhyuk had to save the force field, so Sarang and Gongon walked over to him. Kraken picked up the pace.

The octopus took big strides until it was within its rush range. Then, Kraken stomped the ground and flew forward, but Junhyuk simply passed by the hero with his teleport.

They were now among their enemies, and Junhyuk raised the force field.

When the force field appeared, Nid didn’t hesitate. He used the corkscrew rush to move away, and Kilraden withdrew by use of his own teleport. Both enemies were retreating toward the castle’s force field, and Junhyuk turned around and used his Spatial Slash.

Kraken was all alone now.

The Spatial Slash hit Kraken’s eye, and the hit created the specks of light that added even more damage to the attack. Kraken lost 48 percent of his health.

It was a big chunk, and right after that, bolts of lightning crashed on the octopus’ head. Sarang’s Thunderstorm dealt 36 percent of damage to Kraken. With two attacks, the octopus lost most of its health.

Junhyuk thought he could finish Kraken off, but a giant foot stepped on the force field.

The force field had a weakness. If someone exerted force against it, it could be held in place.

For a short while, the force field didn’t move. Kraken, on the other hand, was quickly escaping. Sarang aimed her orb at the hero, but Kraken spewed black ink toward them. The ink covered the force field, and because the allies lost track of Kraken, they could not use their powers.

Gongon walked out of the force field, dodging the Golem’s attack, and used his flying headbutt toward Kraken.

Boom!

The headbutt hit the octopus, and Kraken faded away.

[Gongon killed Kraken.]

Kraken was a hero, and Junhyuk was relieved that the allies had killed him. However, Gongon was now outside of the force field.

The golem ran toward Gongon, trying to stomp the hatchling. Junhyuk knew he could deal with the golem by himself, and he though Gongon would be able to do the same, but the real problems were the other enemies.

They exited the castle’s force field brandishing their weapons.

Junhyuk looked at them. Could he hold them off?

The force field would soon disappear, and the enemies would go all out against the allies. Junhyuk was thinking that if he could kill Kilraden, even without his Spatial Slash, the allies would win. However, Kilraden had all of his powers. On top of that, the assassin specialized in hiding, so he had to be aware of everything.

After some thought, Junhyuk said, “Let’s attack them.”

“Sure.”

Gongon was dealing with the giant golem, and Junhyuk ran toward the heroes. The heroes knew exactly when the force field would disappear, so they also ran toward him.

Nevertheless, Junhyuk trusted Sarang’s remaining powers.

She had used her Thunderstorm, but she also had utility powers like Junhyuk.

Running forward, Junhyuk whispered to her.

“Keep some distance from me. We can’t be attacked at the same time.”

“We’ll attack first this time.”

The allies closed in against their enemies, and Sarang stepped forward, releasing two electric blasts. Both of them hit her enemies accurately, and both heroes were paralyzed. Without hesitation, Junhyuk swung his sword like a madman.

With the enemies paralyzed, every strike was a critical hit. Junhyuk focused on Kilraden, closing in on the hero and slashing him twice.

With the additional damage, each hit took 17 percent off of Kilraden’s life. With 34 percent of his health gone, Kilraden disappeared.

Junhyuk turned around quickly to see Kilraden standing next to Sarang, swinging his dagger.

After being sliced by the dagger, Sarang instinctively shot an electric arrow. However, Kilraden, sensing her attack coming, used his counter.

After the two attacks, Sarang disappeared.

[Kilraden killed Sarang.]

Junhyuk wasn’t able to do anything, and Sarang died.

Suddenly, from behind him, Nid howled.

“Hoooowl!”

Junhyuk was stunned, and Nid slashed at his back. While under attack from Nid, Junhyuk tried to look for Kilraden, but the assassin had hidden himself, and Junhyuk could not find him.

Once he was able to move again, Junhyuk attacked Nid. Nid was well aware of what it meant to fight Junhyuk, so he quickly retreated.

They were at the enemy base. If the enemies entered the force field, they would recover their healths. There was no way for Junhyuk to win against that.

To prevent that from happening, Junhyuk attacked Nid ferociously. The hero would have to deal with Junhyuk. If not, he would die.

Clang!

Nid blocked the attack, but Junhyuk was circling the hero while attacking him continuously. That way, he was able to block Nid’s path to the force field.

Nid was shocked by Junhyuk’s swordsmanship, realizing that Junhyuk was a better swordsman than him.

Junhyuk was also shocked by what he was doing as he attacked Nid. He wasn’t using acceleration, and was depending only on his senses and his skill. Nevertheless, Nid was blocking every attack.

Junhyuk knew his soul grew after dying, but he did not know that that growth applied to his swordsmanship.

He looked for an opening within Nid’s strikes, and attacked it sharply. Junhyuk’s attack passed through right in between two swings of the saw-bladed sword and grazed Nid’s neck, even though Nid moved away quickly.

The strike hit for 8 percent, and Nid received another 3 percent of damage due to the set effect. Junhyuk was sure of one thing: his attack speed was the same as Nid’s, but his swordsmanship was better.

Nid was on the defensive again, and that’s why Junhyuk was winning. However, Nid had to defend himself because Junhyuk’s attacks were extremely brutal. Because of that, Nid had to use his sword to block.

While he fiercely attacked Nid, Junhyuk looked out to the battlefield for Gongon. Kilraden had reappeared and joined the golem in the fight against Gongon.

“Am I alone here?”

Knowing that Kilraden wasn’t around, Junhyuk had to take that opportunity to kill Nid. If he did, he would win the battle even if Kilraden killed Gongon.

Nid had 69 percent of his health left, and Junhyuk had to do his best to get rid of him. Without his Spatial Slash, however, that wouldn’t be easy.

Junhyuk grimaced as he attacked Nid. The hero had a lot of health, but if Junhyuk could land some critical hits, he would be able to kill him.

Nid scowled as he blocked Junhyuk’s attacks. He kept on losing his health bit by bit. He knew he couldn’t win. Nid had been able to take Junhyuk’s health down to 45 percent, but it hadn’t been easy.

Nid’s attacks had gotten through due to his howl, but now, his regular attacks weren’t getting through. But, Nid gritted his teeth and kept on attacking.

Nid had changed his mind and decided to go on the offensive. Meanwhile, Junhyuk kept on attacking him.

Nid’s attacks weren’t that powerful when they were not critical hits, and Junhyuk could recover his health with his sword, so if both sides focused only on attacking, Junhyuk had the advantage.

With Nid ignoring his defense, Junhyuk kept on calmly attacking him. He could kill Nid even faster that way.

Junhyuk swung the Frozen Rune Sword, slowing Nid down, and he seized the opportunity. His sword grazed Nid’s ribs and neck. Junhyuk was also hit twice while attacking, but he had dealt more damage to Nid.

Junhyuk had a satisfied smile on his face when he was faced with the worst situation.

[Kilraden killed Gongon.]

Gongon had died, and now he had to get rid of Nid quickly. The hero only had 10 percent of his health left. A critical hit or two regular attacks would take care of it.

Junhyuk swung violently at the hero, who suddenly had a strange smile on his face. Nid rushed, passing by Junhyuk.

Junhyuk knew that the rush wasn’t the problem. He tried turning around as quickly as possible, but Nid was already entering the castle’s force field.

“Shit!”

Junhyuk gritted his teeth. He couldn’t have allowed Nid to regain his health.

Then, he saw the giant golem running toward him. After seeing the golem, Junhyuk understood how Kilraden was able to kill Gongon.

The golem was nearly destroyed. Gongon had focused completely on it, almost in a frenzy, and allowed himself to be hit by Kilraden.

Kilraden was now running toward the castle’s force field, and Junhyuk had to catch up to him.

Nid was gone, and the golem was almost dead. If Junhyuk killed Kilraden, he could still win. So, Junhyuk used the Spatial Slash on Kilraden. He thought he had killed the hero, but Kilraden activated his ultimate, and Junhyuk realized that the Spatial Slash missed.

However, Kilraden was in midair.

Junhyuk teleported. Kilraden’s ultimate had a weakness. When Kilraden was in midair, Junhyuk was able to dodge his attacks, rendering the ultimate useless.

As Junhyuk teleported and escaped, Kilraden entered the castle’s force field. Junhyuk had lost them both, so he started running away.

“See you later!” he said as he ran away, almost like a villain.
