The Late Game Healer Is Way Too Strong – Chapter 351

𝐂𝐡𝐚𝐩𝐭𝐞𝐫 𝟑𝟓𝟏: 𝐀𝐧𝐭𝐢𝐜𝐡𝐫𝐢𝐬𝐭 3

Clickety-clack.

The mechanical arm and finger joints moved.

Choi Dae-soo, who was originally large in stature, was as big as a Kraken when he put on the cyborg mobile suit.

“This makes me think I can have an equal fight.”

“You’re arrogant, human.”

“It would be fun to die to that arrogant human.”

Choi Dae-soo growled and put strength into his mobile suit.

He could feel the overwhelming power and skill of his opponent in his skin.

━’𝘔𝘪𝘯 𝘚𝘪𝘸𝘰𝘰 𝘨𝘢𝘷𝘦 𝘮𝘦 𝘢 𝘨𝘰𝘰𝘥 𝘰𝘯𝘦.’━

This cyborg mobile suit was a watch-type artifact that Siwoo had given to Choi Dae-soo in the past.

It was equipment that he tried not to use as much as possible because it consumed magic power like water.

However, its power was so great that Choi Dae-soo came to cherish this artifact as a kind of ultimate weapon.

A record of the humanoid’s battle collected by Lockheed Martin, the world’s top defense company, through ranking battles.

It was a large-scale combat weapon created based on that.

“Kukuk. As expected, a monster is a monster. I can see that I need to wear this kind of artifact to match it.”

Choi Dae-soo put strength into his suit and grabbed Kraken’s forearm, trying to bend it in the opposite direction.

A smile came over his face as he saw the momentum of his opponent, who he didn’t think he could face one-on-one, gradually declining.

Kraken opened his mouth when he saw Choi Dae-soo laughing.

“Human—Do you think you inferior beings can defeat us, the demon race?!”

“We will win. We can win, monster.”

“Do you know that all of your leaders have turned their backs on you?”

This time, Kraken spoke, grumbling.

The leaders of the humans, including the Bilderberg Club, had long since sided with the demon race.

If they were ordered to do so and accelerated their dominance, humanity would not last long, and in fact, that was happening.

Even if Min Siwoo hadn’t killed him, the plan would have proceeded smoothly.

“You’re talking funny.”

However, Choi Dae-soo swallowed a laugh as if Kraken’s words were absurd.

“What’s funny? Although they are dead, all of your presidents, prime ministers, and kings, who were called kings, have pledged allegiance to the demon race. A beast with its head cut off is dead!!”

When his opponent didn’t react to the provocation, Kraken uttered his thoughts in a squeaky voice.

The demon race is highly individualistic, but they cannot disobey the orders of a higher-ranking demon.

And their entire system was maintained in the hands of the ‘Demon King’, the strongest being.

What if all the Demon Kings died?

The hierarchy would collapse in an instant, and the demon race itself would be plunged into great chaos.

The reason why the Demon Realm didn’t shake when the Demon Kings from the 1st Realm to the 3rd Realm died was thanks to Bablehner’s strength and Kraken’s support.

If Bablehner and Kraken had surrendered to humanity, the demon race would have followed their opinion without much fuss.

“A beast with its head cut off.”

Choi Dae-soo continued speaking without letting go of the strength in his hand.

“Humanity is not a single entity. If we lose our head, we will simply put another person in charge.”

Just because one president betrays the country doesn’t mean that the people will follow him in betraying it.

Whether they are traitors or patriots, it is their choice alone.

“You mean that all the heads of state in the world have bowed their heads to the demon race?! Didn’t you see the result of that too?!”

Min Siwoo’s public execution was carried out by his own hand.

That act was such a shocking event that it made everyone terrified.

Something that some people could only imagine in their heads was something Siwoo did without hesitation.

“Take a hundred or a thousand presidents in front of the Demon King and make them kneel. We will just have to elect a new leader each time.”

“What a race without any respect for their leaders!!”

“Kukuk. You’re just finding out about that now? You will never be able to dominate us, you little monsters!”

“You talk like a bunch of bastards as soon as you become like that—!!”

Kraken gritted his teeth and replied in an angry voice.

His biceps and triceps swelled, his blood vessels protruded, and demonic energy gathered.

“. . . This damn bastard.”

Choi Dae-soo was startled and cursed at Kraken’s growing momentum.

He hadn’t been using his full power at all.

Zzezezezezezeze. . .!!

A subtle popping sound came from Choi Dae-soo’s suit.

The opponent’s demonic energy, which had been bearable until a moment ago, was surging like a high tide, trying to crush the surroundings.

“This. . . I can’t just keep enduring it.”

Although the cyborg mobile suit was the essence of science and magic created by the defense industry, it seemed that it did not have the durability to withstand Kraken.

Choi Dae-soo decided to stop the power struggle.

He quickly punched Kraken’s torso after striking it like a mace.

Tukwa───────ak!!!

The boosters spewing from the shoulders and elbows accelerated the speed, creating a tremendous impact sound.

Kraken’s body staggered for the first time.

Choi Dae-soo didn’t miss that gap and immediately landed another punch on his opponent’s shoulder.

Ppagaaaaaaaaaak!!

“. . . . . . !!!”

A breathless groan could be heard from inside the helmet.

Choi Dae-soo realized that his opponent had taken damage and didn’t stop his combo.

Sometimes, momentum won’t come back if you don’t hold on to it.

If he didn’t accumulate more damage now, he didn’t know when such an opportunity would come.

Choi Dae-soo poured magic power into the mobile suit.

Guuuuuuuuuuu

Magic power surged into the incantation engraved inside the machine, and boosters sprang up all over the suit.

Kwagagagagagagagagagagagak!!!

Flames spewed out, and countless violent blows rained down on Kraken like a downpour.

“Kuaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaak!!!”

Choi Dae-soo gritted his teeth and swung his arms like crazy.

We can win, we have to win.

His arms ached as if his muscle fibers were tearing and his bones were being hammered.

Choi Dae-soo cursed inwardly.

His breathing was getting faster and his pumped heart was about to burst at the limit.

He couldn’t tell if he was hitting himself or being hit.

His dantian was throbbing as if a faucet had been turned on and magic power was gushing out.

Choi Dae-soo gritted his teeth all the more and unleashed a fierce attack.

The cyborg mobile suit was an artifact that raised human ability beyond its limits and gave it several times more power, but on the other hand, it was also a technique that devoured the body as much as the raised ability.

The body that couldn’t keep up with the machine screamed.

Blood dripped and it felt like glass shards were rolling around in both hands.

Teok!!

At that moment, his fist stopped as if it had hit something.

Beyond that, he could see a blood-red glare.

“It’s over now, inferior human species. . . .”

Kraken’s fury was replaced by demonic energy, which weighed heavily on the area.

The black energy burned like hydrochloric acid.

Tukwaaaaaaaaa───────aaaaaaaa!!

The exterior of the mobile suit shattered like a cookie.

“Keueuk!!”

Choi Dae-soo bit his molars until he tasted blood in his mouth.

At that moment, Kraken’s mace swung like a thunderbolt, drawing a straight line.

The monster’s blows rushed towards him.

Choi Dae-soo stared at the end of the mace and unconsciously thought of death.

It was like the instinct of a prey being eaten by a predator.

Jja────ak!

A cheerful sound awakened his mind.

Clear and strong.

In response to that sound, the mace cut through the void.

Kraken felt his vision flip for a moment and felt dizzy.

That damn sorcerer had used his tricks again.

“Kuaaaaaaaaaak!! I’ll tear you to pieces!!”

Kraken roared in a thunderous voice, filled with anger.

“You’re the one who’s going to die.”

Choi Dae-soo’s murmur could be heard from the sky.

Gugugugug. . . Puwhaaaaaaaaa─────ak!!

The covers on both arms of the mobile suit opened wide, and all the magic power he had gathered was released to the ground.

🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸

Thump. Thump. Thump.

His heartbeat rang in his ears.

The sound of him breathing in and out was clear.

His head was pounding and his brain felt like it was ripening red.

“Ha.”

Siwoo wanted to vomit right away.

He didn’t even know what he was doing right now.

After being hit by Antichrist and flying away. . . Since then, his consciousness had been faint and his body felt like it was floating.

━’𝘞𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘢𝘮 𝘐 𝘥𝘰𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘩𝘦𝘳𝘦. . . .’━

He felt so groggy, as if he had taken a very strong cold medicine and had gone to sleep.

He wanted to lie deep in a fluffy cotton blanket and fall into a deep sleep like this.

Siwoo moved his eyelids, which wouldn’t open, and then closed them again.

He didn’t know anymore.

He wanted to rest.

He held the small pillow next to him in his hand and put it on his bedside.

I wish it was a little bigger.

. . . . . . !!

A thin sound shook his mind slightly.

. . . . . . Ah!!

What? I can’t hear you well.

Siwoo frowned and turned his head towards the sound.

. . . Kk. . . Ah!!

It sounded like someone screaming.

He barely lifted his consciousness, which had been locked to the bottom, and focused on the sound again.

Say it again. What?

【𝐊𝐲𝐚𝐚𝐚𝐚𝐤! 𝐈’𝐦 𝐠𝐨𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐭𝐨 𝐛𝐞 𝐜𝐫𝐮𝐬𝐡𝐞𝐝 𝐭𝐨 𝐝𝐞𝐚𝐭𝐡!!】

The doll that Siwoo had been lying on fluttered its wings and struggled under his face.

Siwoo, who had come to his senses, sat up.

【𝐘𝐨𝐮, 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐰𝐞𝐫𝐞 𝐭𝐫𝐲𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐭𝐨 𝐤𝐢𝐥𝐥 𝐦𝐞!】

Pre rolled around on the floor, wriggling, feeling betrayed.

“. . . . . . .”

Siwoo looked at Pre with trembling eyes.

【𝐌𝐲 𝐬𝐭𝐨𝐦𝐚𝐜𝐡 𝐡𝐮𝐫𝐭𝐬, 𝐡𝐨𝐨-𝐡𝐨. . .】

━’𝘐 𝘤𝘢𝘮𝘦 𝘵𝘰 𝘮𝘺 𝘴𝘦𝘯𝘴𝘦𝘴 𝘵𝘩𝘢𝘯𝘬𝘴 𝘵𝘰 𝘗𝘳𝘦.’━

Siwoo sighed as if he couldn’t believe it and picked up Pre and put it on his shoulder.

“Hey, that bastard is too strong.”

He almost had his body crushed by a strange explosion.

Siwoo stared ahead, calming his pounding heart.

It seemed that Rinoa and Pantereon were subduing Antichrist.

【𝐒𝐭𝐫𝐨𝐧𝐠? 𝐓𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐞 𝐚𝐫𝐞 𝐚 𝐥𝐨𝐭 𝐨𝐟 𝐩𝐞𝐨𝐩𝐥𝐞 𝐰𝐡𝐨 𝐚𝐫𝐞 𝐬𝐭𝐫𝐨𝐧𝐠𝐞𝐫 𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐧 𝐲𝐨𝐮, 𝐜𝐡𝐞𝐚𝐩 𝐫𝐢𝐜𝐞.】

“Really? Are you stronger than me?”

【𝐎𝐟 𝐜𝐨𝐮𝐫𝐬𝐞! 𝐈𝐟 𝐈 𝐦𝐚𝐤𝐞 𝐮𝐩 𝐦𝐲 𝐦𝐢𝐧𝐝, 𝐈 𝐜𝐚𝐧 𝐣𝐮𝐬𝐭 𝐤𝐢𝐥𝐥 𝐚 𝐬𝐥𝐢𝐦𝐞 𝐥𝐢𝐤𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐭!】

Siwoo raised one corner of his mouth as he looked at the owner of this baseless confidence.

“Then lend me some strength. I’ll take care of that bastard.”

Pre tilted his head at Siwoo’s words.

【𝐀𝐫𝐞 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐬𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐨𝐮𝐬?】

“Uh-huh.”

【𝐈𝐟 𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐭’𝐬 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐜𝐚𝐬𝐞, 𝐈 𝐮𝐧𝐝𝐞𝐫𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐧𝐝. 𝐇𝐨𝐰 𝐜𝐚𝐧 𝐈 𝐡𝐞𝐥𝐩?】

“I’ll open the next core, so turn around and suppress the recoil with your power.”

The stage that Siwoo could currently use was 5-core.

It took a lot of training and many crises to open the door this far.

【𝐇𝐞𝐚𝐥𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐢𝐬 𝐡𝐞𝐚𝐥𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐛𝐞𝐜𝐚𝐮𝐬𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐬𝐩𝐞𝐞𝐝 𝐨𝐟 𝐫𝐞𝐠𝐞𝐧𝐞𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐢𝐬 𝐟𝐚𝐬𝐭𝐞𝐫 𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐧 𝐝𝐞𝐬𝐭𝐫𝐮𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧. 𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝟔-𝐜𝐨𝐫𝐞 𝐜𝐨𝐮𝐥𝐝 𝐛𝐞 𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐧 𝐟𝐚𝐬𝐭𝐞𝐫 𝐢𝐧 𝐝𝐞𝐬𝐭𝐫𝐮𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧.】

“That’s why I’m also using life energy. Get ready.”

Siwoo seemed to have made up his mind and opened the door to the 5-core in one breath.

Kugugugugugugug. . . !!!

The core was opened to the stage where he had fought Antichrist.

Beyond this door.

He had stepped into the forbidden area that he had never seen before.

Thud.

An overwhelming power that he had never experienced before rushed through him from head to toe.

His mind was about to fade away.

His mind was as white as a priest who had fallen into a state of no-self.

Siwoo opened his eyes wide, not letting go of a single thread of his mind.

Destruction and regeneration fought each other, decomposing and reconstructing his flesh.

If he hadn’t used the stored life energy, Siwoo’s body would have turned to dust the moment he opened the door to the 6-core.

Dust rose up.

━You are. . .

Antichrist asked, looking in the direction of Siwoo with an unfamiliar expression.

“Who the hell are you? The human who’s going to kill you.”

At that moment, Siwoo shot out like a ray of light through the dirt and dust and threw a punch.

─────── . . . ─ . . ─ !!!!

A white flash that dyed the horizon.

Pazzuzuzuzu. . .!!

A bomb of terrible power scattered debris all over the place, as if it had eaten away at the area.

The spot where that quiet death had disappeared.

“Your Majesty. . .?”

Rinoa was able to confirm Antichrist, who had turned into a pile of ash.
