Reader - Chapter 246
“We will move separately.”
It was too inconvenient to be assigned to a unit and finish the quest.
They didn’t work together before, so they wouldn’t get along easily, and he hated receiving orders.
‘It should be done quickly.’
Since he has achieved the goal of 100 million, he needs to end the war as soon as possible. It would be possible to have more influence if they work separately.
“Yes, I understand.”
Amilletta answered and got up from her seat.
“Let’s go!”
Then went out of the tent.
Soo Hyuk and Yeon Jeung followed her out of the tent. Countless demons were lining up outside it. Receiving the attention of the demons, Amiletta went up on the podium. When she arrived at the podium, she glanced at her demons.
“Now is the time to put an end to the war.”
Soon Amiletta’s speech began. And when her speech was over. Soo Hyuk could see the messages.
[The quest ‘Battle of Alin’ has been changed to the quest ‘Total Attack’.]
After seeing the message, Soo Hyuk immediately checked the quest.
{Total attack}
A total attack by the Amiletta Faction began to capture Alin.
Drive out the demons of the Kyrad Faction in Alin!
[Number of demons killed: 〇 / ???]
Quest Reward: Fall of Alin
The description is slightly different, but not much has changed from before.
“Wow!”
“Wow ah ah ah ah ah!”
While he was watching the quest, Amiletta’s speech ended, and the demons started shouting.
Amiletta came down while hearing the shouts. Soo Hyuk closed the quest window as she approached.
“I wish you well.”
“Eh.”
He replied to Amiletta’s words. She walked again out of the base. While the demons followed.
“Can we go right away?”
Yeon Jeung asked.
“I think that would be it.”
Soo Hyuk came out of the base in response to Yeon Jeung.
‘It’s spectacular.’
After leaving the base, Soo Hyuk checked other nearby bases. Numerous demons were pouring out of them. It was the beginning of an all-out attack.

“It’s ridiculous.”
said Kyrad.
The demons nearby could not say anything. No, they had nothing to say in the first place. It was because Kyrad was talking about the Balrogs corpses.
“Are you sure that the humans did this?”
Kyrad looked at the bodies of the Balrogs and spoke again. This time he wasn’t talking to the Balrogs.
“Yes, that’s right.”
Eos, a high demon at the back, answered.
‘What if it were me?’
At Eos’ answer, Kyrad thought. What if it was him? Can he kill the balrogs who are receiving support at once?
‘Hard.’
The situation was very hard. There were not only general Balrogs, but two advanced ones as well. Moreover, they had support from many high demons. No matter how much he thought about it, it was difficult to kill the Balrogs at once.
It was then.
“Kyrad-sama!”
Eshtar appeared.
“They have started attacking again!”
“Yeah, I can feel her aura.”
Kyrad turned his head and looked in the direction of Amiletta’s aura.
‘What should I do?’
He was worried.
‘Should I stop the humans?’
A place quite far from where Amiletta is. Although it was a small area, he felt an energy level equivalent to Amiletta. They were clearly humans.
Should he stop Amiletta or the humans?
‘I’m going crazy.’
Kyrad sighed after thinking about it. He didn’t like the current situation.
‘I’ll have to stop Amiletta though.’
Kyrad put an end to his troubles. No matter how intimidating the humans may be, he cannot let Amiletta go wild.
‘The ritual should have started by now.’
As Kyrad walked towards Amiletta’s place, he thought of Hertana. She headed to the capital. By now Ashul should have begun the ritual. It takes quite a long time for the ritual to finish. He had to drag the time as much as possible.

“It’s really great!”
Yeon Jeung, driving the carriage, exclaimed with excitement.
The demons of the Amiletta Faction are trying to climb the wall by any means. The demons of the Kyrad Faction are trying to stop them from ascending by any means.
In front, the siege of the Amiletta Faction and the defense of the Kyrad Faction were constantly unfolding.
As with Yeon Jeung, Soo Hyuk watched the siege and thought about it.
‘If I just drill a hole, it will be quick, right?’
They had overwhelming numbers. If it wasn’t for the fortress wall, the Kyrad demons would have already been suppressed.
“Yeon Jeung.”
After thinking about it, Soo Hyuk called Yeon Jeung.
“Yea?”
“Let’s go to the wall. I need to drill a hole.”
“Ok!”
Yeon Jeung drove the wagon at Soo Hyuk’s call and quickly headed for the fortress wall.
“Soo Hyuk and Yeon Jeungn are here!”
“Push!”
“Wow!”
As Soo Hyuk and Yeon Jeung approached, the demons who were throwing magic over the fortress wall as well as the demons climbing the fortress wall shouted. Hearing the cries of the demons, Soo Hyuk began looking for a place where there were no demons, where he could make a hole.
“Over there.”
Soo Hyuk raised his hand and said, Yeon Jeung drove the wagon.
“Fire Spear, Magic Missile, Dark Spear, FireBall.”
Upon arrival, Soo Hyuk started casting spells towards the fortress wall.
*Bang* *Bang* *Bang*
A defensive magic circle appeared, but due to Soo Hyuk’s magic that followed, the magic circle disappeared, and the wall was also destroyed, creating a hole.
He then told Yeon Jeung.
“Let’s go over there.”
One hole was not enough. There were a lot of Amiletta Faction demons. Soo Hyuk was thinking about making more holes while walking around. Yeon Jeung began to drive the wagon along the fortress wall at Soo Hyuk’s words.
“Attack those humans over there!”
“Yea!”
Is it because they saw them making a hole? Or maybe it’s because of what they’ve been doing. The Kyrad Faction demons on the wall began pouring magic and arrows on Soo Hyuk and Yeon Jeung. Of course, those attacks were to no avail.
“Holy Shield.”
A protective shield appeared around their bodies, and the demons of the Kyrad Faction attacks couldn’t pierce it.
So, Soo Hyuk and Yeon Jeung were protected by a protective shield and started making holes.
‘Soo Hyuk and Yeon Jeung!’
Aron found them and swallowed his saliva.
‘Why are they here?’
Why are Soo Hyuk and Yeon Jeung in here? Did it look like they needed help? Aron was worried and could not help but be surprised by the situation that followed.
*Bang* *Bam* *Bang*
‘Wait, the wall’
It was because there was a big hole in the wall after a few magic spells. It was not a wall that could be destroyed so easily. If it had been easily destroyed, they wouldn’t need to climb the walls.
‘Did you clearly see the magic circle?’
It is not a place without magic circles. It disappeared at the same time as it appeared, but there was a defensive magic circle.
‘What.’
It was so ridiculous that it felt like his head was spinning.
“Everyone enters through the hole!”
But that was for a while, he immediately regained his consciousness, then shouted. They don’t have to climb the fortress wall anymore. At Aron’s cry, the demons entered through the hole.
Aron turned his head to look at Soo Hyuk and Yeon Jeung. They traveled along the fortress wall. Then they stopped in a new place.
*Bang* *Bam* *Bang*
Soon there was another hole in the wall following an explosion. Aron thought as he looked at the second hole.
‘It will be over soon.’
The war is already over. There was only a difference in time whether it ended early or late.
However, Soo Hyuk and Yeon Jeung were making holes in the wall. As more and more demons enter Alin, the time it takes to seize Alin will decrease.
Aron immediately started moving after checking Soo Hyuk and Yeon Jeung. He entered Alin through the hole. Then ran towards the Kyrad Faction demons in his sight.
__________
“What do you think?”
At Yeon Jeung words, Soo Hyuk grinned. They moved along the wall and made more than 10 holes. A lot of Amiletta Faction demons entered Alin through the holes and started fighting.
“Shall we go in too?”
“OK.”
Soo Hyuk nodded his head.
They made enough holes, and now it would be more helpful for them to go into Alin and kill the Kyrad Faction demons than to make a hole in order to shorten the war time.
At Soo Hyuk’s words, Yeon Jeung drove the wagon to the hole.
And the moment I entered Alin through the hole.
[Warning!]
[High Demon Escatina has appeared.]
[Warning!]
[High Demon Horet has appeared.]
A message appeared. Soo Hyuk saw the message and checked his surroundings.
*Bang* *Bam* *Bang*
Four demons were fighting a blood battle nearby.
Two were demons of the Amiletta Faction, and it was clear that the other two were high demons of the Kyrad Faction mentioned in the message.
Soo Hyuk was staring at the high demons battling, then turned his head.
He wanted to kill the high demons Escatina and Horet, but he decided not to. The high demons of the Amiletta Faction would suffer damage. If they were being pushed back, he would have intervened in any way, but there was no need to intervene as they were in a close battle.
Soo Hyuk began to cast magic at the demons of the Kyrad Faction, who were fighting nearby.
-Acquired 9 Intermediate Demons Soul Stones
The drop window began to be updated gradually.
Soo Hyuk thought while looking at the drop window.
‘Should I just go inside at all?’
He was constantly killing, but the situation was very frustrating now. He couldn’t use AOE magic, so he had to kill them one by one.
Would they rather go deeper? He would be able to fire AOE magic without worrying about his allies.
“Yeon Jeung, I want to go inside, but what do you think?”
“What do I think! About going inside?”
Soo Hyuk nodded his head at the question. Then Yeon Jeung began to drive the wagon.
“Huh?”
“Oh!”
Not only the Amiletta Faction, but also the Kyrad Faction demons let out startled voices.
“Magic Missile, Dark Ball.”
Soo Hyuk cast a spell on the demons of the Kyrad Faction who were looking surprised.
The drop window was updated again, and the wagon went straight through the corpses of the two fallen demons.
It was then.
*Bam* *Bam* *Bam*
A huge explosion was heard.
Soo Hyuk reflexively turned his head to see where the blast was heard.
A great cloud of dust was rising from the distance.
*Bam*
Once again, they heard an explosion and a message appeared.
[Amiletta, the leader of the Amiletta Faction, and Kyrad, the leader of the Kyrad Faction, have started a battle.]
[The quest ‘Battle Victory or Loss’ has been created.]
“?”
Soo Hyuk thought it was the appearance of a high demon, and was puzzled after checking the contents.
‘Win or lose the battle?’
Soo Hyuk opened the quest window.
And after confirming the quest ‘Battle Victory or Loss’, Soo Hyuk frowned without saying a word.
“Yeon Jeung.”
After closing the quest window, Soo Hyuk called Yeon Jeung.
“Yea.”
“I have to retrieve the wagon.”
