Valerius Grimm was laughing loudly as he slaughtered the police officers and mages around him at lightning speed The police were in a desperate situation The mages were newly awakened Level 5 mages who had been assigned to measure the portal. However, everything changed when the portal suddenly exploded and Valerius Grimm emerged from it With claw-like nails in his hands, Valerius Grimm mercilessly butchered both the mages and the police.
Police:
"Central, we need backup! We request Level 4 and Level 3 mage support from the London Mage Headquarters!"
At that moment, Valerius Grimm noticed a weak child and his mother trying to escape at the side In an instant, he appeared before them and looked down at the child.
Valerius Grimm:
"The weak must die."
His hand became covered in blue magic and he used a Cutting Strike Just as the slashes were about to reach the child's neck, a mage jumped in front of him as a shield.
The strike severed the mage's left arm.
Jaeom:
"A piece of trash like you doesn't deserve to live!"
He covered his fist with magic and attacked.
But Valerius Grimm stopped the punch in midair.
Grimm:
"You are weak as well. The weak must be eliminated."
He punched Jaeom, sending him flying several meters away. His body was covered in blood Just then, three of Jaeom's friends stepped in front of him.
Fred:
"Hey bastard. I don't like Jaeom much, but I can't just let him get hurt, right Peter?"
Peter: "Yeah. Come here. Lara, watch our backs."
Lara: "Got it."
Fred and Peter launched a combined punch attack, but it had no effect Grimm became even more excited.
Grimm: "Yes! That's it! Attack me with all your strength! Ahahahaha!"
He unleashed an aura explosion and created two magic arrows in his hands He fired them instantly Fred and Peter collapsed to the ground, covered in blood Grimm then turned his gaze toward Lara.
"Now I'm finished here," he thought.
Lara raised her guard and created a flaming shield But Grimm shattered her with a single light punch, tearing her body apart He ripped off her head and absorbed her mana.
Seeing this, Jaeom tore his clothes apart.
Jaeom:
"Tiger's Breath!"
He rushed forward and landed a powerful punch on Grimm For the first time, Grimm was pushed back and his body bled slightly.
Jaeom was breathing heavily.
Jaeom:
"I WILL KILL YOU! DO YOU HEAR ME?!"
Peter & Fred:
"Don't use that technique! No!"
Jaeom:
"CLAW WRATH!"
His body began to evaporate like steam.
With all his strength, he threw a devastating punch at Grimm Grimm crashed into a building Dust and smoke filled the air.
Jaeom collapsed on the ground, covered in blood.
Jaeom:
"I think… we did it…"
Peter:
"Damn it… we couldn't protect Lara."
Fred:
"Damn—"
Fred's sentence was cut short as his head exploded Grimm appeared again with a ferocious aura He instantly tore Peter apart and absorbed his mana Jaeom realized there was no hope left.
Jaeom:
"Guys… forgive me… he was too strong…"
He coughed blood and closed his eyes.
Just as Grimm was about to attack—
Jaeom opened his eyes and saw someone standing there.
Jack Lee.
Jack Lee:
"Where am I? Hey sir… where is this place? Let's get out of here."
Jaeom:
"Y-you…"
But Jaeom died before he could finish his words Jack Lee couldn't understand what was happening Suddenly, a savage voice echoed inside his mind.
Valerius Grimm:
"You filthy insect! How did you take control?!"
Jack Lee:
"What is that voice? What's happening?"
At that moment, Jack saw the manager from his office standing nearby.
Jack Lee:
"Manager… what happened to me earlier? I can't remember anything. What happened before today?"
The manager walked toward him and touched Jack's forehead Jack Lee fainted instantly.
Then the manager began speaking with Valerius Grimm.
Manager:
"Welcome back… Great Monarch of Wrath."
Valerius Grimm:
"You worm! Why am I in this body? And I told you to separate my powers using scrolls!"
Manager:
"My lord, after your battle with the Abyss Ruler, many of your fragments were lost after your death.
We only had one scroll to resurrect you.
Your power was divided into twelve scrolls, and currently you possess only one."
Grimm:
"You worthless Gluttony Monarch ! I told you to divide them into five great scrolls! And why this body, Saint Wernius?!"
Saint Wernius (Manager):
"My lord, it was a body you could easily take over. Strangely enough, he was also an awakened one While I was infiltrating his workplace disguised as a manager, I noticed his strange drawings.
However… he was extremely weak."
Grimm:
"You dare give me a weak body, damn you Wernius—"
Suddenly his words were cut off.
Jack Lee regained control of the body again.
Wernius looked shocked.
Wernius:
"What?! How is this possible?! How did you escape my control?!"
Meanwhile, in Sejong, X, Seo-Ah, and Park Jae Hyun arrived at the dungeon They noticed blood around the entrance.
X:"This looks like it's going to be difficult. Jae Hyun, you shouldn't enter. It's dangerous."
Seo-Ah:"No. It might be useful. Remember, he gained the power to kill Kang-Woo."
X:"But he loses control! He could harm us too, not just the enemies. And his body can't withstand that power."
Seo-Ah: Are you kidding me, you stupid cyborg? He's an Avatar User! Do you know what that means? AVATAR! That's a power only possessed by the Sovereigns!"
X:But he can't control it. You don't understand."
Park Jae Hyun:"I will come. And I will do my best, I promise."
Images of his mother and little sibling appeared before his eyes.
"I need to get stronger. I have to protect my family."
"Let's go in."
Seo-Ah: Alright, champion. Let's see what awaits us."
X, Seo-Ah, and Park Jae Hyun entered the dungeon
