The Max Level Hero Has Returned!

Chapter 402

Chapter 402

The ordinary wyverns and demons seemed to have been a reconnaissance unit. These guys looked like they did not even know of the existence of the curtain that Davey passed by earlier.

Well, it wasn’t a simple curtain that blocked someone’s path. It was more like it was a gate to another dimension and Davey was given a ticket to it. As for the reason why the maritime city of Valkass had been deprived access to the entire sea in this world? Davey still did not know.

The dozens of wyverns and demons that came to greet him did not even matter to Davey.

Thud!!! Thud!!!

“Keheok!!!”

The Black Wyverns, beings that had extremely good sensing abilities, were the first to be affected. After being exposed to Davey’s overwhelming mana, their mouths started to foam as they fainted and fell on the ground one after another. As a result, more than half of the demons fell with them and started to groan and moan from pain.

“Keuaaaack!!!”

“Kghhk... S-Save me!!!”

Davey thought that it was fortunate that Aeria was not here to witness this, seeing how terrible they looked after a simple exposure to mana. Then, Davey looked around the sky and silently tracked the suspicious gaze that was looking at him.

It was quite easy to track the general location of the source of the gaze with the power that he acquired from the Hall. The only thing that was difficult right now was finding the specific location. Geett the latest novels at novelhall.com

The existence that was looking at him right now? Perhaps it had power comparable to the weakest hero-level individuals’ combat abilities, maybe a bit more than that. In fact, even Urd, the Abyss Princess that made Davey suffer immensely, was not guaranteed to be able to do something like this.

‘No. Wait a minute. There’s one existence in this world that can do something like this.’

“Hmm...” Davey hummed to himself in thought, stopping in his tracks and turning around when someone flashed in his head. Then, he slowly approached one of the demons that were groaning in pain.

The demons’ eyes grew wide when they saw Davey coming over while releasing his explosive energy, some of them even jumping up to attack him.

“Kghhk... urk...”

The demons looked at Davey with both disbelief and fear when they realized that his breathing didn’t even change when dealing with their group. No matter how hard they looked at him, he was still nothing but a mere human being. A pure-blooded human.

And even though they were seeing the reality with their eyes, it was still hard for them to accept the fact that a mere human being was showing a power that deviated from the norm.

“What the hell...” the demon spat these words with great difficulty, his breathing turning ragged as the pain he was experiencing intensified from the sudden pressure placed upon him.

Davey slowly gathered his explosive energy back and returned to calm. Only after the mana that had dominated and controlled the entire area turned silent were the demons able to breathe. They exhaled heavily as if they were finally given amnesty and allowed to breathe.

“Haa... Ha...”

“Hey. What’s your name?”

The demon looked up at Davey with both trepidation and cautiousness, “How, how dare a human like you...”

“Would you like to get beaten until you’re on the brink of death before you cooperate with me? Or are you going to simply cooperate with me?”

The demon gulped when he saw the smile on Davey’s face. “I’m, I’m Gorone!”

The demon was so afraid of Davey that he instinctively turned to polite speech when he spoke.

“Alright, Gorone. Let me ask you one thing,” Davey said quietly. “What year is it right now?”

Gorone’s expression turned somber at those words.

“You’re not going to answer?”

“The 312th year of the Demon World calendar...”

“I’m not asking the year in your calendar, in the human calendar.”

Gorone flinched as he slowly opened his mouth again.

After listening to the details from Gorone, Davey was able to sort out some facts and piece together some important information.

Only a few months had passed since Reina died in this world. Davey thought that this world, which had lost its use, would disappear when Reina disappeared. But that was not the case at all, or at least that was what happened after looking through the passage of time in this world.

Davey squatted down and grabbed Gorone by the collar. “Who is currently in charge of the demons?”

“Grand Duke Astaroth and First Lich Nyx... and...”

“That doesn’t work? Well, then...”

[7th Level.]

[Purify]

Davey shot out another round of Purify. However, Megalodria still did not improve, even though Davey increased the level of purification by two.

At first, Davey did not think that any magic at this level would fail against Megalodria. However, he considered that there was a possibility since the amount of holy mana he used with the 7th Circle Purify was almost ten times the usual amount needed to cast one. But it still did not work.

Davey clicked his tongue after he finished thinking of another method. ‘Alright. I’ll give you a huge bleeding[1] service this time!’

Then, Davey quickly placed his hands together and began to raise his holy mana.

[I am informing you, Goddess Freyja.]

[You shouldn’t care even if I create a huge fuss here, right? Don’t you think so too? You threw me here because you wanted something, so I’m going to borrow your grace in return.]

[9th Level, Final Holy Magic]

[Saint’s Sanctuary]

The Saint’s Sanctuary was an area of effect sanctuary magic. In an instant, dozens, if not hundreds, of white feathers fluttered in the sky as a huge and bright light appeared, engulfing the entire area. The warm light also enveloped Davey’s body before covering Megalodria’s gigantic form, which had sustained quite a few severe injuries.

Davey had understood the system of the restrictions that Urd had placed upon him to some extent. Urd’s power was related to erosion. She had the ability to inject her own power into others as long as they touched her. This power would then encroach upon that individual until it devoured everything they had to offer.

If that was the case, then didn’t that mean that Davey only had to deal with the erosion that was encroaching upon this guy? Perhaps this was the only opportunity he would have to purify the Storm Dragon King Megalodria. And Davey would not miss such a thing for the world.

So, he tightened his grip on his hands and continued to pray.

[Requesting urgently for more grace.]

[9th Level Holy Barrier]

[Deus’ Sanctuary]

A holy barrier was erected, followed by an additional 8th Class holy magic, a magic that amplifies the efficiency of the previously cast magic.

In just an instant, Davey laid down the Saint’s Sanctuary and the holy barrier, together with three layers of amplification magic. However, even with all that, he still could not get rid of the erosion in one go.

—Roaaaaaaaar!

Davey stared at the guy enduring the pain brought about by the massive holy magic pouring down on him. In the end, Megalodria could not endure and swung his gigantic arms to attack him.

Crack, crack, crack!!!

It was obviously a life-threatening attack. However, it would be impossible for an attack, which had been greatly weakened, to touch Davey right now. He just raised his hand and grabbed one of Megalodria’s claws, crushing it in the process as he showed him a dark and eerie smile.

“In this place, I have quite a huge advantage over you...”

Megalodria’s red eyes shook at those words.

“Come to think of it, how many times did you beat me with your tail last time?”

Davey could also not forget the fact that Megalodria's tail had broken his arms dozens of times during their previous fight.

‘No. F*ck it. Just thinking about it is making me mad! This bastard! I’ll just beat you up for ten minutes.’

Megalodria flinched when he saw Davey’s gruesome smile go wider. However, the three holy magic spells that fell upon him contained an overwhelming amount of holy mana that completely restricted his movements.

Although Megalodria’s reason had flown out of the window, he could still remember Davey. This fact made it all the more confusing for the mythical beast. He obviously remembered that Davey did not have this much power back when he fought with him. The thought just briefly flashed in Megalodria’s head, but Davey saw it.

Well, even he did not expect that his body and soul would synchronize here. And he was actually in a state where the power flowing through his body was derived from the power of his soul rather than the power running through his veins. To put it simply, Davey was in a state where he could draw as much power as he wanted to evolve without undergoing a complete metamorphosis.

Megalodria, who saw Davey approaching him slowly, anxiously stepped back away from him. He looked very cute like that, like an arrogant cat that was running away. However, Davey was smiling for another reason.

‘I will never have a chance like this again.’

Megalodria tried to find a gap as he used all of his strength to raise his entire body and run away from Davey. However, it seemed that he had forgotten one thing. He had already been captured inside the card that was made from Davey’s soul.

A chain of light stretched out from the ground and wrapped tightly around Megalodria, stopping him from moving away. Davey smiled silently as he made eye contact with the mythical beast.

‘It’s too late, you bastard.’
