Owner of Twilight Intuition – Chapter 171

Attack Power: 20　　Magic Attack Power: 0

Durability: 200/200

*Doubles Attack Speed.

*Decreases Magic Power by 10 for each magic bullet fired.

*Applies Attack Power as Fixed Damage.

“Attack Power is 20?”

After glancing at the description and Attack Power, I was dumbfounded.

A dragon felt threatened by a weapon with only 20 Attack Power and destroyed it? No, if it was destroyed, why did it come out of the box?

It was the most absurd description I’ve seen among Unique items so far, but I calmly examined it again.

‘5 shots per second. Attack Power of 20 applied as Fixed Damage, so……’

If I use it continuously for a minute, I can inflict 6,000 damage.

‘Huh?’

Thinking that way, it didn’t feel so bad. Of course, if I use other skills, I can deal hundreds of thousands of damage. But the Magic Bullet Bomber made ranged attacks possible, which I didn’t have before.

‘Since Attack Power is applied as Fixed Damage…… If I enhance it, the damage will be taken care of, right?’

“……”

By the way, the item I wanted was something that increases Magic Power, but the item I got doesn’t increase Magic Power, but rather consumes it.

Well, things don’t always go my way.

I let out a small sigh and put on the necklace, then put the Magic Bullet Bomber in the Item Storage. To properly use this Magic Bullet Bomber, I’ll need to prepare a lot of recovery potions.

‘Come to think of it, I also have a Random Skillbook.’

The Random Skillbook I got from killing Heights. I need to manipulate this Random Skillbook too, but after two consecutive failures, I didn’t want to do it anymore.

Footsteps-

‘Hmm?’

Suddenly, hearing someone’s footsteps in this secluded place, I raised my head.

‘Is it a player?’

If it was a player, I raised my head with the intention of giving way, but unexpectedly, the owner of the footsteps didn’t seem to be a player.

“I’ve finally found you, Rudin-nim.”

“Who are you?”

A woman in her early 30s, wearing a neat priestess uniform, looked at me with calm eyes. Behind the priestess, knights in white armor were standing. After confirming them, I guessed who the woman in front of me was.

‘Could it be the Church of Light?’

There’s no reason for me to be involved with the Church of Light…… Well, not exactly.

I recalled Nayra, who had become the Demon King, and smiled bitterly to myself. If she had run away as I said, the Demon King wouldn’t have appeared.

‘Then did this woman come to arrest me?’

Well, I could say it’s faster than expected. But it was just my guess, so I didn’t know what would happen. I decided to respond calmly.

“I am Celestina, holding the position of Archbishop. Excuse me, but would you please come with me?”

“Can’t we talk here?”

“It’s because it’s a story that can’t be told here.”

Fortunately, judging by the atmosphere, it didn’t seem like they were trying to arrest me. Thinking that nothing would happen if I followed them, I nodded and started following the priestess who introduced herself as Celestina. I realized that the place we arrived at was the temple I had visited just yesterday.

“What is it that you want to talk about?”

I followed Celestina to a room, sat across from her at a table, and asked the question first.

“I want to know about what happened yesterday.”

‘Yesterday?’

If it was about yesterday, it must be about the Highest-ranking Demon. Since the priestess in front of me was also from the Church of Light, it seemed like she knew that Nayra and I went to hunt the Highest-ranking Demon.

“You mean the incident where I went to hunt the demon with Nayra?”

“Yes.”

This is easy.

“We were caught in a trap set by demons in the Beadi Mountain Range. In the midst of that, the Highest-ranking Demon threw something, and Nayra, who got hit by it, became the Demon King.”

“What? Are you saying that the Demon King who appeared is Nayra?”

‘Didn’t you know?’

I nodded to indicate that it was true. Celestina seemed to be thinking about something and then opened her mouth again.

“Was Nayra alive until then?”

“Yes, she was alive.”

“Then the Demon King must have resurrected in an unstable state.”

“Why?”

“Originally, the soul should leave the body before resurrection. That’s how the Demon King can peacefully take over the body. But now, Nayra’s soul is coexisting, so the Demon King will have a hard time exerting its full power.”

‘Hmm.’

I nodded after hearing that. Come to think of it, the message that popped up when the Demon King resurrected said something similar. It was a blessing in disguise, but even the Demon King who resurrected in that unstable state showed tremendous power.

“More than that, what do you think about the Demon King, Rudin-nim?”

“……We have to kill it.”

Unable to say someone else will take care of it, I chose the most neutral answer. And it seems like my answer wasn’t wrong because Celestina nodded and said.

“That’s a matter of course. Demons shouldn’t exist on earth. But we can’t give up on Nayra.”

‘What are you talking about?’

“So I want to ask you for a favor, Rudin-nim. Would you please save Nayra?”

“How?”

“It hasn’t been long since the Demon King resurrected. It probably hasn’t devoured Nayra’s soul yet. We don’t know what will happen if time passes, but there might be a chance now.”

“……”

Ah, I feel uneasy for some reason. Judging by what she’s saying, it seems like she’s asking me to fight the Demon King. How can I kill that thing? Even the Emperor Guild would have a hard time doing that.

The reason is none other than the Karzen Kingdom.

If 1,000 people were to come here, the cost alone would be 10,000 gold. Even in cash, it would cost billions of won. How can we do that? Also, I know that the Emperor Guild members are relatively short on money.

‘No, let’s take the initiative now.’

It’s a point in time where the quest hasn’t popped up yet. Thinking that I might be able to change the subject, I refused before Celestina could say anything.

“Of course, we have to kill the Demon King. But it would be difficult to save Nayra. Wouldn’t it be better to ask an adventurer belonging to the Karzen Kingdom?”

“This issue has gone beyond the kingdom’s problem. It’s a continental problem.”

“That’s why I said I would fight the Demon King.”

“I would like you to save Nayra as well.”

Is she serious?

She should be thankful that I said I would fight, but why is she adding conditions? Just fighting and saving Nayra are completely different. If it’s just fighting, I can run away whenever I feel it’s dangerous, but if I have to save her, I have to watch until the very end.

‘Or is there a good way?’

I thought about it and asked Celestina.

“How can I save Nayra?”

“It’s simple. Use this orb when the Demon King’s power is almost depleted.”

Thud-

I looked at the orb placed on the table. It was an orb emitting a faint white light, but what bothered me more than the orb were Celestina’s words.

“To use this orb, I have to attack the Demon King until its power is almost depleted?”

“Yes. Otherwise, it will fail.”

“What happens if it fails?”

“You will never be able to save Nayra.”

‘Is it possible?’

Simply put, players belonging to the Karzen Kingdom would rush in like crazy and attack the Demon King, and when it’s almost dead, I would use the orb. But if I do that, wouldn’t all the players in the Karzen Kingdom hate me? Also, figuring out its HP is a problem.

I heard there’s a skill that lets you see HP……

‘No, that wouldn’t be a problem.’

If necessary, I can use the second Intuition to find out the remaining HP, so there’s no problem.

The problem is that I have to fight alongside the Karzen Kingdom players.

Anyway……

Thinking that it wouldn’t work this time, I shook my head.

“I think it will be difficult.”
