Chapter 802



A hand stretched out from the bright light and stopped the spears from piercing Beanie’s body further. At the same time, the heads of the players that were attacking Beanie all fell and rolled on the ground.

A tall, handsome man, whose looks were blessed beyond measure, appeared as the bright light disappeared. As his black hair and fair skin came into view, he hugged Beanie tightly in his arms as his white cape carrying the symbol of the fork and knife crossed together that represented the Beyond the Heavens Kingdom fluttered behind him.

This man was the one that stood at the top of Athenae, also known as the Beyond the Heavens’ King, Food God Minhyuk. And right now, Minhyuk was sporting a very frightening expression on his face.

“You m*therf*ckers.”

Killing intent from Athenae’s top player burst out and encroached upon the enemies. Those that met him for the first time unknowingly took a step back. It was well known that Food God Minhyuk was a kind and courteous person. However, the Minhyuk in front of them right now was completely different from what they heard, especially with the killing intent that was bursting out from his eyes.

While some took a step back in fear, some of the high-leveled rankers' will to fight was burning even brighter. Both Black Dragon and Beanie were exhausted. The fact that Minhyuk came here alone meant that they had a chance to kill the existence that stood at the top of Athenae.

Rohan, a ranker at the top 1,000 of the Assassin Rankings, used his lethal skill on Minhyuk.

“Dagger of Destruction.”

Shwaaaaaaaa—!

The Dagger of Destruction was a skill that could instantly increase the skill user’s speed by five times, while inflicting 10,000% additional damage upon hitting the enemy’s vital point. It could be considered as Rohan’s strongest skill. Rohan moved swiftly, his dagger stabbing straight toward Minhyuk’s chest.

Stab—

Rohan felt delighted. It did not matter whether Minhyuk stumbled or collapsed on the ground, all he knew was that Minhyuk would definitely be forced to log out after he pierced through his heart. It was definitely possible with the additional 10,000% damage, especially since he was an assassin that could deal a huge amount of damage.

However, reality turned out to be completely different from what Rohan had imagined. Minhyuk, who had placed Beanie down, grabbed Rohan’s wrist that was aiming for his chest while he used his other hand to grab the assassin’s neck.

“Keok…!”

Then, Minhyuk slammed Rohan on the ground.

Baaaaaaaaaang—

[Your HP has dropped below 70%!]

“…”

Rohan was very shocked to see a huge chunk of his HP disappear like that. After all, he was just simply slammed on the ground. Even if Rohan was an assassin class player, could Minhyuk really deal such a huge amount of damage by doing something like that? On top of that, Minhyuk was not even a combat class player. Minhyuk was calm, despite Rohan using a lethal skill on him.

‘How high is his STR and STM stat…?’

Minhyuk’s stats were considerably higher than his peers. This was all thanks to his Food God class, the dishes that he ate, the titles, as well as the special rewards that he obtained.

‘This, this is the Supreme…’

However, Rohan’s thoughts were cut short when Minhyuk stomped on his head several times.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Rohan was forced to log out just like that.

“…”

“…”

Rex and Henry were both left speechless. The two knew Minhyuk well, that was why they did not dare to make a move on him despite the fact that he came here alone.

“Attack him all at once!!!”

“That’s right! He’s all alone!”

“Even if he’s considered as the best of the best, what can he do all by himself?!!!”

The surviving players all charged at Minhyuk.

‘No. Just because he’s alone does not mean that we can deal with him.’

Henry was the only person among those present that wanted to run away from this place. But before he could even do so, Minhyuk had already made his move.

Shwaaaaaaaaaa—

Minhyuk grabbed a mysterious and unknown potion bottle and threw it on the ground. Then, steam immediately rose from the ground and spread through the air.

[You have inhaled the Restricted One’s Potion.]

[Return Scrolls and Teleport Magic have been disabled for three minutes.]

Minhyuk had received a variety of potions from God of Alchemy Mandala in preparation for times like this.

“Intangible Sword.”

Stab, stab, stab, stab, stab—

Several of the close combat players that had jumped up and aimed for Minhyuk all fell flat on the ground. Even so, enemies still charged at Minhyuk from all sides. In response, Minhyuk used Like the Wind and moved swiftly while murmuring, ‘Sword of Absolute Death.’

Bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang—

Lightning swords fell from the sky and devoured most of the surviving players, who were all swept away, dying helplessly without even touching a single hair on Minhyuk’s body.

Rex was once the Story God and the main pillar of the God’s Children. Even though he had lost his Story God class, he was still able to retain all of the various information that he obtained when he still had the class.

With that information, he was able to reach his target. It was none other than Vampire Bella, one of the Eight Pillars. Vampire Bella was the greatest among the vampire races and was considered as the mother of all vampires.

Rex had signed a contract with her. These were the terms and conditions of the contract that he had signed with her.

[You have signed a contract with the Mother of Vampires Bella.]

[You can activate Bella’s power whenever you want.]

[However, to activate the power you need to ingest the blood of a strong person.]

[You will be punished by the Mother of Vampires if you fail to drink the blood of the strong after you activate Bella’s powers.]

Rex had always dreamt of exacting his revenge against Minhyuk. If he offered the blood of the strong to the Mother of Vampires Bella, then he would be able to use Bella’s power semi-permanently. However, just like what was said in the notifications, he would be punished if he failed to fulfill that condition. However, Rex was very confident.

“Minhyuuuuuuuuuuk!!!”

Shwaaaaaaa—!

[Bella’s power is running wild!]

[All of your stats have increased significantly!]

[Your total HP and MP volume has doubled.]

[You can now use some of Bella’s skills!]

[You can now use Bella’s Authority, Blood Absorption.]

Rex slowly turned into a vampire. His skin turned deathly pale, his eyes turned red, his fangs grew longer and sharper, while wings that looked similar to that of a bat’s sprout out on his back. Even his silver hair grew long enough to reach his waist.

Crack, crack, crack, crack—

The blood of all of the enemies that Minhyuk had cut down turned into tens of thousands of droplets that floated in the air and created a spectacular view.

“I…”

Rex had been looking forward to this moment for a very, very long time. Because of the God of Death, he lost all of his qualifications to become the Story God and quickly fell to the bottom. However, he now had the power of one of the Eight Pillars, the Mother of the Vampires Bella, albeit only borrowed. Still, Rex was confident that he could surpass the best of the best, in fact he believed that he could even surpass any god with this power.

“I am!!!”

Rumbleeeeeeee!!!

[You have used Bella’s Skill. Your damage has increased by 1,000%.]

[You have used Bella’s Skill. Your damage has increased by 1,000%.]

[You have used Bella’s Skill. Your damage…]

[You have used Bella’s Skill…]

[Your additional damage has increased by over 7,000%!]

It did not matter what kind of Bella’s attack skill he would use, he would be able to deal additional 7,000% damage. Rex was completely drunk on power. He vowed that he would trample on Food God Minhyuk and make him suffer today.

“…Athenae’s Supreme!!!”

At this moment, Rex was very confident that he had become the true supreme existence in Athenae. The tens of thousands of droplets of blood that floated in the air shot toward Minhyuk.

Baaaaaaaaaaaaang—

The moment the first drop of blood collided with Minhyuk’s body, a huge and powerful explosion engulfed him.

Bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang—

Just like that, the tens of thousands of droplets of blood floating in the sky exploded and devoured Minhyuk. Rex, who watched this scene with his long silver hair fluttering behind him, laughed maniacally.

“Keuhahahahahahaha! Ahahahahahahahaha! I am the new supreme! I will make new history! And I will become the new god!!!”

“F*ck off.”

A faint voice rang amids the loud explosions. It belonged to none other than Minhyuk. He walked out unfazed and unscathed, a faint silver barrier shining all over his body. This was Absolute Defense, a power that would create a thin barrier around Minhyuk’s body and make him invincible for seven seconds.

Rex’s laughter got stuck in his throat while his eyes grew wide from shock.

“…”

It was far too late. Minhyuk’s sword was already right in front of him.

[Double Skill]

[You have a 1.2% chance of triggering Double Skill. Upon triggering, skill’s effects will be doubled.]

Double Skill had an extremely low probability of being triggered. However, once triggered, it could boost the power of even Minhyuk’s strongest skill.

[Sword of Carnage]

[Movement speed increases by twenty times and cuts down your enemy in an instant.]

[The opponent cut down by your sword will suffer from 76 sword attacks in one second. Each of the sword attacks will have 4,000% additional damage.]

[You have ignored all of your enemy’s defenses.]

Everything happened in a flash. Rex only blinked once, yet Minhyuk had already gone past him. It had to be known that Rex’s HP was doubled the moment he activated Bella’s power.

Stab, stab, stab, stab, stab, stab, stab, stab, stab—

Unfortunately, it was all for naught. The sound of his flesh being stabbed and slashed continuously rang in the area while his HP fell rapidly. When it finally reached zero, these notifications rang in his ears.

[The penalty in your contract with Mother of Vampires Bella has been triggered!]

[You have been forced to log out while using Bella’s power!]

[Bella, who is invisible to the rest of the people, appears behind you and bites your neck to kill you!]

Shwaaaaaa—

At that moment, Rex saw the deathly pale Bella look at him with her eerie snake-like eyes and creepy smile as she bit his neck. Then, she said, “Since you dared to borrow my power, then you have to pay the price, no?”

[Mother of Vampires Bella has removed all of the defensive equipment, accessories and weapons that you possess.]

[You have dropped the Sword of the Shining One.]

[You have dropped the Necklace that Even the Gods Coveted.]

[…dropped the Radiant Hero’s Armor.]

[…dropped the Legend’s Swift Boots.]

[Mother of Vampires Bella has forced you to drop all of the items that you coveted and snatched.]

[You have dropped 12,134 platinum.]

[You have dropped Skillbook: Together with the Light.]

[…dropped Gryphon Lord’s Teeth.]

[…dropped the Aestinium Ore.]

[…dropped the Padadinium Ore.]

The notifications rang non-stop in Rex’s ears.

[Mother of Vampires Bella drags your bare body to her homebase.]

[After being dragged to Bella’s homebase, she will suck you dry of your blood for sixty days.]

[Even if you do not log in, your blood will still be sucked dry. You will also receive the forced logout penalty for sixty days.]

[Bella will never reduce your punishment. This is the punishment for losing while using her power.]

[Bella’s curse will stick to you and always harass and torment you!]

This was literally a ‘death sentence.’ Rex would have no room for complaining. It had been stated in the conditions when he obtained this strong power. This punishment was only possible because Athenae was quite a realistic game.

Then, at that moment, Rex heard Minhyuk’s voice behind him. He said, “Supreme? So, the supreme is f*cking weak, huh? F*cking bastard.”

That would be the last thing that Rex heard in Athenae, because he completely dropped the game after this.
