Chapter 195: Bold Decision (2)

However, Bfrost was different from the materials of synthetic evolution Yong-ho had used up to now. He was a powerful Lich, so he had a proper self-consciousness.

Moreover, in order to inflict enough damage to the king of food addiction, Yong-ho had to kill all of the Ten Warriors, for the master was weakened when his subordinate spirits were killed.

Yong-ho was not sure, but probably, the King of Gluttony suffered a significant loss from this battle.

But there was a problem here. In fact, Yong-ho had never done a synthetic evolution with a "dead spirit.'

He once again looked down at Bfrost's body.

It was funny to use the expression 'dead' for this undead who had already died, but Bfrost died anyway.

Because of this, Yong-ho didn't have to worry about his first headache, namely Bfrost's strong ego. It was gone forever.

Yong-ho also thought that the King of Gluttony must have been weakened as a result of the defeat, which naturally addressed his concern about it.

'Shall I try it?'

As Yong-ho's mana became stronger, his power of evolution also became stronger.

As things stood now, he felt he could bring about synthetic evolution by using the materials of the dead spirits.

[It's possible, my master.]

"Aamon?"

Aamon, who had been silent until now, suddenly spoke out. Somehow he spoke in an emotional tone.

Aamon was smiling happily, perhaps because he used his power properly after a long time, or he had some other reason.

Aamon continued, [Although you can use it just once for each spirit, you can have synthetic evolution of the dead spirits and magic equipment with the power of evolution.]

Yong-ho blinked his eyes blankly. Although he was surprised at the new potential of the synthetic evolution that Aamon mentioned, he had some other reason when he blinked.

"No way!"

[That's true, my master.]

[The great King of Greed, Mammon, also had the power of evolution.]

It was something Aamon had never told him before. However, Yong-ho did not regret it. Rather, he noticed the fact that Aamon finally started revealing about Mammon.

Yong-ho recalled what Aamon told him recently. Aamon said he was almost fully qualified to hear the truth about Mammon.

[You don't have to be too impatient, master.]

[Although you might have hoped for it, the King of Gluttony might probably be in extreme confusion by now because he didn't know anything about the situation of the battle when his subordinate spirits were all killed.]

[The King of Gluttony won't be able to find out if his spirits were killed in action or if they were squeezed to death. And that kind of uncertainty will certainly grow into a monster in his head. Its existence itself will suppress him. ]

[I recommend you take a good rest right now.]

[Your injuries are minor, but you have used mana enough to be equal to six horns. I think you need stability right now.]

[Skull will also wait until you recover.]

"Skull Skull."

As if on cue, Skull shouted then carried Bfrost's body on its shoulder, roaring with laughter.

Yong-ho nodded. He turned without regret and headed to Scathach's mansion.

***

"Bark! Bark!"

"Wal! Wal!"

"Awesome! Terrific!"

As soon as Yong-ho entered Scathach's mansion, he received a hero's welcome.

Baduk was very excited, a little Dungeon Meerkat was mewing on its back, and Yuria was the most excited among them.

Watching Yuria and Baduk shaking their hands and feet violently, turning red in excitement, and the little strange but cute baby meerkat, he raised his head.

Then he asked a blue-haired beauty who was sprawling in a chair, exhausted.

"Have you shown them all your fighting skills?"

"Hey, did you expect me to help you when I was struggling to fight them with all my might? You're so mean, my little master! Even Mammon didn't do this to me."

Scathach spoke in a whiny tone, shedding crocodile tears. As she liked to play a prank on him, he didn't think her weird now, but she didn't seem to pretend illness. Actually, her arms and legs were trembling while she was talking to him.

The woman that appeared on the lake was actually a replica of her that she created with magic. The real Scathach, sitting on her chair even before the battle began, was absorbed into pouring out the power of life on the dungeon spirits of the House of Mammon until now.

Suddenly feeling sorry for her, he just licked his lips, at a loss about what to say.

Right at that moment, Yuria flapped her arms and legs again and raised her voice.

"Cool! Cool! You're awesome! I was impressed by this one, in particular!"

When Yong-ho turned his eyes at her, Yuria took a deep breath. After taking a few steps back, she pointed in the air with an air of conceit and shouted, "I'm the King Of Greed!"

"Wal! Wal!"

"Meowing! Meowing!"

Baduk and the nameless baby Dungeon Meerkat shouted as if to respond.

Yuria made a serious expression, but she was cute.

But her imitation made him embarrassed momentarily. When did he shout like that?

[You really said that!]

As always, Aamon's correction weighed on his conscience.

When Yuria was about to tease him again, Kaiwan, who suddenly appeared, hugged his right arm and said, "You're awesome. It's really cool!"

Then Catalina also appeared right after her and hugged his left arm, chiming in, "I also think so."

Actually, both of them were the least injured in this battle. Yong-ho alternately looked at Kaiwan and Catalina then turned his eyes at Scathach who was still sprawling on the sofa, exhausted. On both sides of her chair Ophelia, Eligos, and Tigrius were asleep with their heads sticking out of the blue water that helped heal their wounds.

Yong-ho slightly moved his arms held by Kaiwan and Catalina and turned toward Kaiwan.

"Kaiwan, can you please take Yuria upstairs? When you go there, check the status of other dungeon spirits, too."

When he pointed at her, Kaiwan moved her eyebrows once and smiled. Stretching out her hand, he grabbed Catalina's arm.

"Catalina, go with me."

Taken aback by his sudden suggestion, Catalina quickly looked at him as if to see his help. Although Catalina struggled to get out of her domineering attitude in the name of her superior status, she could not.

"That's why I asked Kaiwan because I knew she would do it like this. Go together. Send my regards to Rikum, too. He must be concerned about me."

Kaiwan giggled at that while Catalina let her ears and tail droop helplessly.

When Yuria and her companions, Kaiwan and Catalina, who were making a big fuss over his victory in excitement, went out, Scathach's mansion became quiet again.

Yong-ho approached her, and she fidgeted with her difficult middle finger with an effort and made a new blue water spring from the floor.

"Take a good rest, young master. I'm going to hit the sack after making the bed for you."

Yong-ho gently dismantled the silver dragon armor and put himself in the blue water.

Scathach said again, "You are not yet my official master yet. You are just my young master. Do you still remember your promise to me?"

"Don't worry. If you're talking about Gusion, let me bring him here sooner or later."

"Okay, I'll look forward to it."

Scathach corrected the way she sat.

Yong-ho said lastly before he closed his eyes.

"Well, I want to thank you for what you have done today."

"You are welcome. Anytime you like it, just give me an order."

He felt good about her cheerful response, so he closed his eyes pleasantly.

And how many minutes passed?

After watching him sleep for a minute, she smiled before she knew it and whispered, "Have a good night, Master."

"What did you say?"

At that moment, Yong-ho opened his eyes slightly. Looking at her face, it seemed that she was pretending not to have noticed his question.

When she was caught by him unexpectedly, Scathach rested her chin on her hand.

Then, she said slyly like Gusion used to do, "You're my master."

***

Time passed fairly to everyone everywhere.

That was the same when Yong-ho and his party at the House of Mammon began to take a break after their battle with the Ten Warriors.

There was something passing the sky over the southern area very rapidly.

Only

With red hair and wings, it was the fastest among the Garura clan.

It was none other than Gardimundi, the faithful friend and servant of the King of Fury.

Kirtimuka's comment about Gardimundi was always concise.

'She is frivolous, promiscuous, and too cocky.'

Although it was far from favorable, Gardimundi was not dissatisfied with Kirtimuka's comment, for what she said was true.

However, it was also true that Gardimundi was both an excellent scout and a messenger.

She was one of the only four subordinate spirits of the King of Fury and was the one that could fly fastest and farthest among the Garura clan.
