The Taming Master

The Temple of Daemon was locked with darkness .

Even though it was shocking, all the party members of Ian could look in the darkness .

Even the stalkers in the darkness could be seen, even if they were hiding .

Hoonie looked over at Ian with a shocked expression .

“Hyung, when did you get this aggressive skill?”

“Well not sure, when was it…?”

“No, that isn’t important, why haven’t you used such an awesome skill till now?”

“Because there wasn’t a correct situation to use it . ”

Kaka’s unique ability the ‘Dreaming Devil’ .

This was a skill that would increase all the attack power of the party members by 5% .

But until now, Ian had never been able to activate this skill while hunting with Hoonie .

There was no need for the 5% buff attack effect at all .

It was a safe-sided skill to be used if the situation called for it .

‘I think I could use this… but I may not be able to use the 5% buff skill at all . ’

And the situation that Ian had been waiting for had finally arrived .

Hoonie stared at him as if he was looking at a monster .

‘Normally the hyung isn’t the kind to be reckless but… but this hyung is awesome, I’ll give him that . ’

The ‘Dreaming Devil’ ability was the same as the Warlock class .

That was the reason why all the party members in the range could reduce their damage received by 50% .

And the moment the skill got activated, the enemy which had been so powerful could no longer be considered as a threat to Ian’s party .

All the attacks of the Dark Pets were based on darkness, and the abilities of the shield made it all useless .

In addition, the great skills of the enemy were all missing .

Now, there was only one thing left to do .

“Karceus, Bbookbbook, be ready!”

At the end of those words from Ian; the two dragons flew into the air and pulled the air . Tremors started to shake in the temple along with a huge roaring sound .

Kyooo—!

The next was bright .

Kwanng—!

The breath of the two dragons was spewed out of the familiars onto the Dark pets, and the remaining enemies were taken care of by Ly and Kaizer .

In the midst of the Darkness in the battlefield, havoc was created with the Undead being summoned by Hoonie .

The Death Knight with its mighty power was five, and more than ten Golems were summoned together with the skeletons, they all ran towards the dark enemies .

[The Monarch of Darkness, for the Immortal!]

[Grrr, This is the land of darkness . It’s a good place to showcase my strength . ]

Tring-

[The land of Darkness, is the home of the Undead . ]

[The Undead in the land of Darkness, has their vitality restored 300% faster . ]

[Only for Undead the ‘Dreaming Devil’ buff attack of 5%, will be 35% of the effect . ]

[All the Undead’s mana consumption will be reduced by half . ]

It was neither in the description of its original ability nor in a situation that anyone could predict .

Not just Hoonie, but Ian was also shocked by the turn of events .

‘What is this? Did the Dreaming Devil have such abilities? There weren’t any other explanations…’

This wasn’t a situation that occurred very often .

The attributes of the buff skill, Ian knew that even if it wasn’t explained further about the mechanics of the skill, it often happened that a friend with the same attribute gets a stronger buff .

This was also something that was posted on the bulletin board of the official café .

However, when such enormous effects are given, they have never been seen in play till now .

Kiyaaa-!

And the Grim Reaper who used the Death prelude moved into the air in a flash and spoke .

[You people dare… Merely humans…!!!]

Kuoo-!

Again a wave was pushing them back .

But Ian didn’t worry much .

Even if Death prelude was used one more, Ian was confident enough to hold it off in this dark land .

‘Ly, Kaizer . Let’s get rid of them all . ’

“Understood, Master . ”

“Okay then, let’s do it . ”

Ian climbed onto Pin’s back .

It was because he was planning on joining them .

‘With them not being able to hide, there is no reason for us to be scared anymore . ’

Ian jumped into the air while turning the Judgment of the Spirit King in his hand .

Although there were a lot of dark pets, Hoonie’s all-new Undead, Ian and Canoel’s familiars were more in number than the opponent .

They were in a fight, so there were no other pets of the dark that could defend the Grim Reaper .

Ahhh-!

Ian, the first to arrive due to the speed of Pin, jumped up to his level and wielded his Judgement of the Spirit King at the caster .

However, as the Grim Reaper couldn’t attack while casting, it allowed itself to get attacked .

[You have done catastrophic damage to the Shadow master ‘Grim Reaper’ . ]

[All the orders that would’ve been cast by the Shadow Master ‘Grim Reaper’ will be canceled . ]

[‘Grim Reaper’ vitality has been decreased by 276621 . ]

[Uh, uh, even if I was a little quicker…!]

It was natural for the casting magic to get canceled at the attack .

The Grim Reaper thought that he had calculated that he would be done casting the magic before Ian could reach him .

Ian who confirmed the system message smiled and moved once again .

‘I’m not sure what he was meant to do, but his armor is unpierceable . ’

In fact, the wizards who unleash very powerful magic attacks rarely have strong tanking abilities on par to their strength .

Bang- babang-!

The spear of Ian and the sickle of the Grim Reaper came in contact with each other .

Although the opponent was a wizard, the skill of dealing with weapons was a tough task .

‘The same as… magic?’

Bu that was just for a while .

Both Kaizer and Ly came and pounced into the battle, and the Grim Reaper was removed in an instant .

[Kwahk-! I’m dying in the hands of trivial human beings…!]

The Grim Reaper, who was the one left, disappeared with smoke as the air stopped flowing .

Tring-

[You have successfully defeated the Shadow Master ‘Grim Reaper’!]

[You have gained experience points of 5789899 . ]

[You have earned the fame of 250,000 points . ]

But when he looked at the system messages that came up, it seemed obvious that he was dead but not entirely .

Ian read the messages and mumbled to himself .

‘Well the experience points are little for the trouble that I’ve gone to… but what kind of monster gives such fame?’

In general, if a named monster is killed such as a Grim Reaper, one gets around 5,000 to 10,000 fame points .

It depended on the level but was based on the current level of Ian .

But this Grim Reaper guy should have given out around 250,000, that was why this was a surprising turn of events .

But soon Ian, recovered from his shock .

Tring-

[You have killed the Devil’s Lion . ]

[The ‘Magic resistance’ ability has been increased permanently by 0 . 5% . ]

[‘Magic Attack Rate’ increased permanently by 0 . 7% . ]

[Magic stats are permanently increased by 2000 . ]

Ian’s mouth turned into a smile .

The increase wasn’t that much, but it felt good as it was an unexpected income .

Beginning with the Grim Reaper, everything there was cleared out .

Not exactly that, but once the Grim Reaper had been taken down, all the other monsters just collapsed with simple attacks .

But even then, Ian had a few questions .

‘The familiars are supposed to disappear the moment their Summoner dies… how is it that they managed to stay still now?’

Ian’s eyes were slightly in thought .

‘Maybe the Summoner is someone different…?’

They had assumed that the Grim Reaper was the owner of the pets, but that wasn’t how the situation turned out .

Ian’s gaze was fixed on the red gate .

And the answer seemed to be inside it .

Martin and Chase visited the City of Chaos to proceed with the guild quest and increase their guild branches .

But they have met a challenge that they were unaware of .

Well, they didn’t know that it was going to be a difficult one .

Tring –

[City of Quest, Guild Quest has been activated . ]

Examination by Noblesse Yankun (Guild Quest) –

Liliana the Master of the City of Chaos and the sixth Lord of the Devildom .

Has recently left the guild management office to the newly acquired retainer, Yankun .

In order to register a guild at the guild office, you need the approval of the Managing Director, Yan Kun .

Complete your mission after that, and then you will be allowed to register your guild in the City of Chaos .

Quest Difficulty: Unknown

Quest Condition: Only the ‘Master’ of the guild can receive the quest .

Time limit: None

Reward – Guild fame of 150,000, affinity with the Noblesse Yankun .

(Reward may vary depending on the user participating in the quest . )

– – – – – –

Martin, who read through the contents of the quest, asked Yankun .

“Well, what is meant to do, Mr . Yankun?”

Martin was forced to ask Yankun .

In the Devildom order and rank were everything and absolute, and the difference between the Noblesse Yankun and the Greater Asmodian Martin had a difference of 400 ranks .

And if this sequence was violated, then it would anger all the NPCs in the Devildom .

“Hmm… looks weak, I’m not sure if you guys will pass the qualification test . ”

It was true, as Chase was a wizard boy who was comparatively slim .

However, Martin had a very well built up physic .

‘What are you saying to me, you ignorant muscle pig?’

Since Martin couldn’t say it outside, he thought to himself and responded politely .

“I won’t let you down, Mr . Yankun . If you give us the task we will make sure to do it . ”

Yankun was still not convinced, but soon he nodded and opened his mouth to speak,

“Okay . I’ll give you guys one task . ”

Martin and Chase looked relieved and a system message appeared before them .

Tring-

[A joint quest has been invoked by The Guild Hunter of the City of Chaos, Yankun . ]

– – – –

Noblesse Yankun’s Test I –

In the northeastern side of the Devildom at the 31st division, there is a habitat for the highest ranking warrior Seirein .

Go to the habitat of Seirein and hunt as many as possible and collect 30 eggs of it .

Quest Difficulty: SSS

Quest Condition: only the ‘Master’ of the guild can receive the quest .

Time Limit: 3 hours

Reward: Yankun’s curiosity

(Rewards may vary depending on the user participating in the quest . )

– – – –

Among all the monster, the Seirein’s were the most powerful ones .

That was because they use the skill of wide-area slowing, and the ability to regain their lost vitality .

Moreover, if it was the nesting area of the Seirein, dozens of them will be there .

Martin’s expression was a bit speculative .

‘What’s with these kinds of quests?’

It didn’t mean that Martin couldn’t hunt them down with his ability .

If the battle was one-on-one then it was an easy thing, he could win easily, and he could easily win over three of them too .

But the problem was that it was a habitat—a community .

If the Seirein used the ability to recover their vitality, then there was a danger that the battle would go on endlessly .

“…”

Moreover, the biggest problem was that the quest was time-limited to 3 hours .

And what about the ridiculous reward?

Yankun’s interest…

‘I don’t need the interest of that muscle pig!’

But that wasn’t what was important now .

He had to register the guild for the very first time in the City of Chaos .

And the benefits that it brings were sure to be enormous .

Martin’s head was rolling around .

‘I can’t complete this quest within 3 hours in any normal way . I need to steal the eggs . ’

Martin who had finished the approximate calculation and plans nodded his head to Yankun and said,

“I won’t let you down, Mr . Yankun . ”

But Yankun responded in a different way .

“Well, will see . ”

And so, the hell had begun .
