!
Siegfried was stupefied to see that his very own Torrential Flower Rain was making a beeline for him, even though he had cast it just now himself.
Oh my god!
Who would have imagined that one of his main skills, Torrential Flower Rain, would end up getting reflected back to him? Stupefaction was one thing, but the bigger problem was that Siegfried had no idea how to stop his own projectiles from hitting him.
Shwaaaaaa!
A flower rain of death occurred. Siegfried felt intimidated as he stood before the one thousand razor-sharp projectiles flying toward him.
Gulp! How am I supposed to block this? Siegfried gulped nervously. It was all fun and games when he was the one using it, but he felt helpless now that he was on the receiving end of it.
How was he supposed to block one thousand projectiles zipping through the air at speeds he could barely follow with his eyes?
However, he refused to drop dead here.
Woooong!
He used Flying Sword to keep the projectiles from coming near him and used the Energy Buster skill attached to his Great Champions Belt to shoot them down.
Shwaaaaa!
Unfortunately, the flower rain of death showed no signs of stopping as they fought through his Flying Sword skill.
Then
Shwik! Shwik! Shwik!
The projectiles flew past him one by one, leaving cuts all over his body.
I cant hold on for much longer! Siegfried gritted his teeth and tried to endure it, but to no avail.
Shwaaaa!
The Torrential Flower Rain completely enveloped him.
Aaaaaaack!
It mercilessly slashed at him without showing any signs of stopping.
Thud!
In the end, he collapsed to the ground after falling victim to his very own skillTorrential Flower Rain.
[Siegfried van Proa]
[HP: ]
He had less than ten percent HP remaining after taking the full brunt of Torrential Flower Rainto be exact, he had fifty HP remaining.
[Alert: Status Ailment!]
[Alert: You have been afflicted by Bleeding!]
[Alert: You are losing too much blood!]
[Alert: Your bleeding is not showing any signs of stopping!]
[Alert: You will die from excessive bleeding in ten seconds!]
[Alert: 10 9 8]
Siegfried's vision slowly started to turn gray, This cant be real
Hey, are you dying, Han Tae-Sung? Kekeke!
Siegfried's vision started to darken, but he could still see Chae Hyung-Seok haughtily looking down at him with a sleazy arrogant smirk.
No, no, you cant die, Han Tae-Sung. I get to choose when you die, Chae Hyung-Seok said before opening his inventory and taking out a variety of options. Then, he poured the liquid inside the potions into Siegfrieds mouth.
Glug! Glug! Glug!
[Alert: Your HP is recovering!]
[Alert: Your HP is recovering!]
[Alert: Your HP is recovering!]
Siegfrieds monochrome world started to become filled with colors as he drank more potions.
Thats it; drink it like a good boy. Keke!
Chae Hyung-Seok, you bastard!
Youre saying no, but your body seems to want it Kekeke!
S-Shut up!
Kekeke! Why cant you be as honest as your body, Han Tae-Sung? Chae Hyung-Seok said while cackling like a madman.
[Alert: Your bleeding has stopped!]
[Alert: You are no longer afflicted by Bleeding!]
The dozens of potions Chae Hyung-Seok had made him drink managed to heal his wounds, sparing him from death.
Hey, Han Tae-Sung.
Im coming back tomorrow morning, and I hope you've changed a bit by then. But dont feel pressured, okay? Im not expecting much from a maggot like you. Kekeke! Chae Hyung-Seok cackled and said. Then, he turned around and left the training grounds.
Fuck Siegfried cursed under his breath.

Honey
Brunhilde was watching Siegfried from afar.
Sniff Sniff
Brunhilde tried to fight back her tears, but the sight of her beloved getting pummeled was still too much for her to bear.
Child.
G-Grandfather-nim! Brunihlde jumped up in surprise after hearing someone call her.
You dont have to be so worried, Deus said.
But He looks to be in so much pain
He wont be dying, so you dont have to worry so much. Besides, its only normal for a boy to get beaten up a few times, right? This is all a part of his journey to become stronger.
I have my reasons for doing this, so dont worry and focus on my granddaughter, Deus said. Then, he smirked and added, Also, that guy can be quite perverted, so you really dont have to worry about him.
Pardon me? What do you mean by p-perverted
Most people will give up when things become too difficult, but that guy has the tendency to keep struggling as if hes enjoying it.
I do not follow what
You will see soon enough.
Yes, Grandfather-nim.
In the end, Brunhilde was forced to walk away.
Kekeke! Deus chuckled right after sending Brunhilde away. Then, he exclaimed, The training is going on pretty well! Hoho! It seems this great being has a knack for teaching as well!
Deus seemed to be thoroughly enjoying the sight of Siegfried getting pummeled to death by Chae Hyung-Seok.

The Rebel Faction achieved a string of victories while Siegfried was away, and every single victory was an overwhelming landslide victory.
Duke Taranis took to the battlefield armed with his newfound power and his overpowered weapon to sweep not only the soldiers and knights of the Royal Faction but also the Adventurers that they had hired.
This is absurd! Why the hell does an NPC have a +16 weapon?!
Run! Run for your lives! We cant stop that madman!
Needless to say, the Adventurers were helpless against Duke Taranis. Duke Taranis wielded the power of the Thunder God Vajra, who was one of the most powerful people to have ever walked the face of the continent four hundred fifty years ago.
It would take numerous individuals with special skills to fight Duke Taranis equally, but the fact that he was armed with a +16 weapon only made things much more difficult.
The atmosphere within the royal palace was reminiscent of the air in a funeral home.
Y-Your Majesty The traitor, Taranis, has called
What should we do, Your Majesty?
King Allen was unable to decide whether he should answer the call or not.
Please do not speak to the traitor, Your Majesty. That traitor is surely going to utter deceitful words that will only dishearten Your Majesty, Duke Undertaker said to not let his liege waver.
I will refuse uncles call, King Allen listened to the advice and rejected the call.
Duke Undertaker.
Yes, Your Majesty?
Do we have any chances of winning this war?
My son has informed me King Siegfried van Proa is coming up with a solution.
Your Majesty, King Siegfried van Proa is a mighty warrior who nearly killed Taranis in their last encounter. There are also rumors stating that he is cunning like no other. I am ashamed to say this, but I believe putting our hopes on him is the only thing we can do right now.
Understood, I will hold out for as long as I can then, King Allen replied, nodding.
Please be of strong heart, Your Majesty, Duke Undertaker tried his best to lift his lieges spirits.
Then, he thought, Siegfried van Proa The fate of our kingdom lies in your hands now. Please, I hope you will return with haste and with a way to kill Taranis. You are our only hope now.
The Kyiv Kingdom had exhausted all of their options, and Siegfried was their only remaining hope to stop Duke Taranis, who was going on a rampage on the battlefield.
***
Meanwhile, Siegfried was still getting one-sidedly pummeled by Chae Hyung-Seok.
Today was Siegfried's tenth day of eating Chae Hyung-Seok's knuckle sandwiches, and he had yet to win even once against the latter.
Pukeok!
Chae Hyung-Seok kicked Siegfried's torso.
Baaam!
Siegfried was blasted a few meters away before crashing to the ground.
Wow Youre just a fucking loserno, wait a minute You've always been a fucking loser! Kekeke! Chae Hyung-Seok sneered.
Siegfried did not retortno, it was more like he couldn't retort. He was a complete mess right now, and his stamina had hit rock bottom. He didn't have the energy to utter even a single word. His daily routine was a repeat of logging into the game, getting pummeled, logging out, and struggling with nightmares of the beating he had been receiving.
Getting beaten up by Chae Hyung-Seok was taking a toll on his mental health.
I cant win Siegfried accepted the fact that he couldn't defeat Chae Hyung-Seok.L1tLagoon witnessed the first publication of this chapter on N0vel-B1n.
Siegfried had tried every single thing he could imagine while getting pummeled for more than a week, but he knew deep down inside that he had no chance of winning against him.
There was no hope, and nothing was going to change, no matter how much he struggled. The fact that he was going to get beaten up and ridiculed over and over again was not going to change.
Im disappointed, Han Tae-Sung.
I thought you would at least keep fighting, but whats this? Youre nothing but a piece of trash! Kekeke! Chae Hyung-Seok cackled once again. Then, he grinned and said, Im getting bored of beating you up, so Maybe I should beat something else up; what do you think?
?
Maybe your wife or your daughter?
!
What do you think? Its a brilliant idea, right?
Snap!
Something snapped in Siegfrieds head, and a fierce killing intent welled up in him.
I want to kill him! I want to win no matter what it takes. Ill win and kill him! I dont mind losing to other people, but not to Chae Hyung-Seok! I want to win! Damn it! I want to win!
Siegfried's fighting spirit burned once again in the face of Chae Hyung-Seok's threat to mess with his family.
Tsk tsk I didnt want to kill you because the old man told me not to, but I think today has to be an exception. Ah, dont worry; Im going to send your wife and kid shortly after, so you won't feel lonely. Kekeke! Im such a nice person, right?! Chae Hyung-Seok cackled maniacally as he started walking over to Siegfried.
You fucking bastard! Siegfried growled while forcing himself to his feet.
Oh? You still want to eat more knuckle sandwiches?
How dare you threaten my family!
Why? Cant I? I think its going to be fun
Wooong!
Crimson flames burst out of Siegfried.
Im going to kill you Siegfried roared with clenched fists; his killing intent, fighting spirit, and his desire to win burned brightly.
Wooooong!
Siegfried's pent-up emotions were about to burst out of him when a message popped up in front of his eyes. Then, the mana stored within his mana hall rampaged and swirled around his body like a vortex.
Ding!
[Alert: You have obtained a new skill!]
Huh?! Siegfried was surprised to see a new skill appearing out of nowhere, but that wasn't the end of the surprise
Store all of the powerlessness youre feeling in this skill.
Ignore everything else in this world and focus on the enemy in front of you.
One-on-oneyou and the enemy.
This is a battle to the death where one will die, and the other will be victorious.
Make sure that you'll win.
Make sure to destroy your enemy thoroughly.
A bunch of words that were probably from the Debuff Masters skill book flashed in front of Siegfrieds eyes.
