Chapter 644

[ Congratulations! The level of your True Demon stat has risen and become White grade! ]

White grade!

After passing through the rainbow colors, then Silver and Gold, the next grades were said to be White and Black.

And he had finally reached it.

The realm of the White stat, unlocked by breaking through 999, the maximum value of a Gold stat.

[ You have obtained a White stat for the first time among all Players. ]

[ You have achieved a very great feat that no other Player has ever accomplished. ]

[ The System acknowledges your great feat and presents you with 50 bonus stats. ]

“......!”

The modifier had changed from supreme to great.

On top of that, the bonus stats granted along with it numbered a staggering 50.

It was an enormous number.

But it was still too early to be shocked by these things.

Because Offering was still in progress.

[ You have succeeded in absorbing dense and pure mana beyond your limit. ]

[ True Demon stat increases by 1. ]

[ You have succeeded in absorbing dense and pure mana beyond your limit. ]

[ True Demon stat increases by 1. ]

.......

The True Demon stat was still rising.

Just how far is this going to climb?

The amount of stats rising without knowing a ceiling, soaring endlessly, was now frightening.

At that moment, the eyes of Omega, who had seemed dead, flashed wide open.

- It is not over yet!!

A tremendous roar that seemed as if it would tear his eardrums apart.

[ Omega, the final Dragon Lord and the last Arc Dragon, uses Dragon Words. ]

The strongest dragon magic.

It was Absolute Death.

At the same time, the strongest and densest mana he had ever seen burst from Omega’s body and swept over everything in all directions.

Kwaaaaaaaaaaa!!

An energy storm covered the entire lair.

Was everyone going to die again this time?

No.

Amazingly, right after the storm of Absolute Death passed, there was no sound of anything bursting anywhere, nor any scent of death.

Pajit—pajijit!

The sound of electricity crackling.

At the end of it was.

“Haha?”

Su-ho, bursting into laughter.

The laughing Su-ho looked perfectly fine.

He did not look badly injured like when he had been struck by Absolute Death before.

There did seem to be some aftermath from the explosion, but his face was full of composure, and his condition was still intact.

Everything was thanks to dragon blood.

Thanks to the dense dragon bloodline that had gone from Quarter Blood to Half Blood!

- Master!

At that tremendous change, Jack called out to Su-ho, overwhelmed with emotion.

Su-ho, too, exhaled as if he felt refreshed.

“Now it really is the final stretch.”

Omega, the Lord-class Arc Dragon called the final dragon.

Since Su-ho had reached the point where he could lightly get through Absolute Death, said to be the highest level among the dragon magic that bastard used, what could this be if not the end?

Su-ho approached Omega.

Then, looking at Omega pierced through in such an unsightly state, he said,

“Why don’t we stop now?”

- .......

Omega’s deathlike eyes looked at Su-ho.

They were deathlike eyes, not dead ones.

In those deathlike eyes, several emotions were tangled together.

So, paradoxically, they also seemed like the most alive eyes Su-ho had seen from Omega so far.

Omega met Su-ho’s gaze for a while, then spoke with difficulty.

- If you are going to do it, do it to the end.

“You’re really stubborn.”

Was this what they called bullheadedness?

Well.

Old people were stubborn enough already, so how much worse would an aged dragon, a long-lived species, be?

Su-ho decided to do as he wished.

He raised the Blood Sword.

Su-ho cut through the impaled bastard’s neck together with the Guiyeong Spear in a single stroke.

Along with the Guiyeong Spear, the bastard’s head flew off once again and fell to the floor.

Maybe it was only natural, but Omega did not die this time either.

Were dragons originally like this?

At this point, he could not even tell whether that bastard was a dragon or an undead.

Then it happened.

[ Omega, the final Dragon Lord and the last Arc Dragon, acknowledges his complete defeat. ]

[ The duel has ended. ]

The fight was over.

At the same time, the bastard’s gigantic body began to gradually shrink while scattering light.

After shrinking, he returned to his usual appearance as a fierce-tempered old man.

It was Polymorph.

After confirming the end of the fight, Su-ho also released gigantification and Offering.

He thought the backlash from the risks would come, but unexpectedly, it did not.

It was thanks to the massive amount of mana stats.

Su-ho, who had reduced his size as much as the polymorphed Omega, stood before him.

The High Bloods, of course, and all the others were reverse-summoned and left the place.

Jack was the same.

Only Su-ho and Omega remained.

Omega, who had polymorphed into human form, sat leaning back in his personal chair.

His condition did not look very good.

Su-ho used Recovery on him as he breathed somewhat roughly.

[ Recovery activates. ]

Hwaah!

As warm healing light scattered, Omega’s breathing became much more comfortable.

Omega seemed to feel it too, and while entrusting himself to the comfort wrapping around his body, he wore an empty expression out of sheer dejection.

- .......

He did not open his mouth.

Looking at his condition, it seemed he would need some time to fully recover, so Su-ho took a step back.

“I’ll come back later.”

- .......

Omega did not answer.

Su-ho had not particularly wanted an answer either.

Pressing him would not make food cook faster, and if he waited long enough, would he not open his mouth on his own?

As he had seen in the system notifications, Omega had completely acknowledged his defeat.

‘Even if someone admits defeat, they still need some time to accept it.’

Su-ho put a suitable amount of distance between them.

No, he disappeared from Omega’s sight entirely.

At that consideration, Jack quietly said,

- You are deeply considerate.

“The fight’s over, so what’s the point in squabbling more?”

- As expected of my master. You have a large vessel.

“You only figured that out now?”

After settling down in a suitable spot, Su-ho opened his status window first.

[ An Su-ho ]

Lv: 400Class: Black PopeGrade: Guardian GodBetting: <Umbra><Heracles><Sword Demon>Traits▲: <New Blood★><Heracles><King of Ruin><King of the Demon Realm><Sun-Moon Body>Great Strength(S): 148True Demon(W): 112Super Sense(S): 90Command(N): 220Bonus Stat: 50“Wow.”

Su-ho, who had looked at the status window without much thought, let out an exclamation without realizing it.

Putting aside the fact that the True Demon stat had entered White Color, the number had already exceeded 100.

All of it was mana he had absorbed from Omega.

‘A Lord-class dragon really is different.’

Looking at it this way, Alucard looked like an ordinary nobody.

Honestly, Alucard was not at the level where he deserved to be treated like an ordinary nobody, but when Su-ho had completely swept Red Maria clean, his mana had not risen.

But with Omega, he had produced this much result just from using Offering for a while, so there was no helping that Alucard felt like a relative nobody.

‘The next one was Black, right?’

As for the order of stat grades, it was said that after the rainbow colors came Silver and Gold, leaving only White and Black.

In his previous life, the highest humanity had reached was Purple, and even that had been Su-ho’s achievement, but now he had already reached White level, so this was simply at the level of awe-inspiring.

Su-ho habitually started to invest the stats he had acquired into mana, then stopped.

‘I should at least balance Great Strength a little.’

He wondered if he was raising only mana too much.

After pondering briefly, Su-ho invested all his bonus stats into Great Strength.

He figured he should at least make Great Strength, which would be one of his main forces, into Gold Color.

Next, he brought up the dragon blood skill information.

[ Dragon Blood ]

Grade: SS# The bloodline of a great dragon.

# One who possesses dragon blood can enjoy the power dragons possess depending on their effort, even if they were not born as a dragon.

# Lv.1 - Dragon Blood: Intimidation(S), Dragon Mind(S).

# Lv.2 - Dragon Armor: Dragonkin(S), Dragon Skin(S).

# Lv.3 - Dragon Grow: Dragon Bones(S), Dragon Body(S), Dragon Sense(S).

# Lv.4 - Dragon Egg: Dragon Egg(S)

# Lv.5 - Hatchling: Half Blood(SS), Dragon Mode(SS).

# Lv.6 - Dragon Master.

The grade of Dragon Blood had gone from S to SS.

And was that all?

The Quarter Blood option attached to Hatchling, the level 5 authority, had become Half Blood, and Dragon Mode, which came as part of the set, had also become SS.

Dragon Master, the level 6 authority and final authority, had been unlocked too.

However, the options Dragon Master possessed had not yet been revealed.

It was the same as Imperial Blood.

In the end, it seemed the options of Dragon Master had to be opened by Omega.

Around °• N 𝑜 v 𝑒 l i g h t •° then, the mana consumption stopped.

The recovery procedure had ended.

The timing was good.

He headed to where Omega was.

Omega was still sitting as if leaning back in his chair.

With an empty expression.

Su-ho approached without caring and asked,

“Done resting?”

- .......

Omega did not answer.

Come on now.

This old man was sulking.

He wanted to scold him that way, but without saying much, he sat down in front of him.

“It’s all over. You know that too. So how about you stop around there and let’s make some progress?”

At the polite proposal, Omega moved only his eyes and looked at Su-ho.

Then he let out a deep sigh and sat up.

- Hoo.

Another sigh came from his mouth.

He had been the one to propose deciding everything by strength, but now that the result had turned out like this, it was absurd.

Especially, he had never imagined that Absolute Death, into which he had poured all his strength, would be chewed up like this.

- So, in any case, it means you inherited our bloodline......

A low murmur.

Su-ho replied indifferently.

“You remember the terms of the bet, right? The loser has to behave respectfully.”

- .......

Omega did not answer again.

Ah, that old man, seriously.

There was one reason Omega was acting like that.

Because according to the contract made through Dragon Words, from the very words he used to answer that question, he had to be respectful.

Although they had fought so bloodily, Omega was still not ready.

But now, there was nowhere left to retreat.

Omega looked up at the sky.

Because of the lair’s ceiling, the sky was not visible, but his expression was like that of a people who had lost their country.

‘What a damn mess, seriously.’

Even so, Su-ho waited.

After waiting with patience for some time, Omega, who had finally prepared himself mentally, opened his mouth.

- ......Yes, I remember everything.

It was the moment the door to conversation finally opened.
