Chapter 333 – Yulia’s Betrayal (6)

"Hoho," Tia said, licking her lips as she glanced at Han-Yeol, "Arachnids are quite independent creatures."

Slurp~!

She appeared extremely sensual and seductive at that moment.

"H-Hiiik!" Han-Yeol shrieked in horror, completely forgetting to check what her other new skills did.

He gripped the Dimension Stone after confirming that Tia and Mavros had their second awakening. Then, he said, "Let's go back."

"But won't they be standing guard over there?" Tia replied.nOVElB1n

"Hoho! This Dimension Stone has another secret only I know of. I can set a coordinate on where to open the dimensional gate!"

"Really? It has such an amazing function?"

"Hohoho!"

Han-Yeol mimicked Tia’s laugh as he confidently infused his mana into the Dimension Stone but...

"Huh?"

There was a problem.

"H-Huh?"

No matter how much mana he injected into it, the Dimension Stone did not react.

"What's going on?!" Han-Yeol exclaimed, not expecting such a problem.

The Dimension Stone consistently glowed brightly due to the immense mana it held, but its glow was nowhere to be seen right now. Han-Yeol couldn't sense any mana coming from it.

"W-What in the world is the problem...?"

"Oh? It seems that you have a problem, master."

“Kyu?”

Tia and Mavros approached him to inspect the issue.

"N-No... T-This isn't supposed to..." Han-Yeol stuttered, starting to panic.

Then, he suddenly remembered he had a skill that could identify the problem. ‘That's right! I can use Item Appraisal!’

He promptly activated his skill on the Dimension Stone.

Ding!

[Dimension Stone]

Type: Processed Mana Stone

Mana Capacity: 0/10,000

Activation Effect: Opens a dimensional gate connecting a selected first dimension to a second dimension.

Description: An ultimate treasure crafted from a high-grade mana stone with extreme precision and skill. It's designed to open an artificial dimensional gate between dimensions. However, it requires ten thousand mana to activate and will recover one thousand mana every twenty-four hours.

"..." Han-Yeol was left speechless after reading all the descriptions.

‘Ten days?! I’m stuck here for ten days?!’

Then, he began scratching his head in frustration. ‘Alone?! I'm stuck here alone?!’

Though Tia and Mavros were with him, they were more like his subordinates—or rather, family—so they didn't count. The absence of his most trusted companions within the Bastro Dimension, Riru and Kandir, dealt a heavy blow to his morale.

‘Haa... I guess there's nothing I can do about it,’ he quickly conceded.

After all, nothing would change even if he raged and complained. He still had to wait ten days for the Dimension Stone to recover its mana.

“Tia, Mavros.”

“Hmm?”

“Kyu?”

He explained the situation to them.

"...So that's what happened."

Han-Yeol closed his eyes and visualized Delchant's sigil, but they say that bad things were bound to happen all at once.

Ding!

[The Demon Merchant, Delchant, is currently unavailable. Please leave a message after the beep.]

Beep!

“...”

Han-Yeol blinked a few times.

"Ah... I guess today is an unlucky day for me..."

Now, he truly had no choice but to fight bare-handed.

"I guess I have no choice but to make full use of my demons..."

Han-Yeol wasn't the type to shy away from a fight just because he lacked weapons. He possessed skills enabling him to fight both in melee and at a range. If needed, all he had to do was create a skill that would help him fight bare-handed.

Fortunately, it wasn't going to be difficult for him to fight without weapons, considering he had recently obtained the Magma Attribute skill.

“Let’s go in a bit.”

“Okay, master~”

“Kyu!”

“Haa...”

Han-Yeol felt his stress levels rise after the series of unfortunate events, so the first thing he did was open his dimensional inventory and take out a blanket to get some sleep. His body had already recovered from the fight against the creature, but nothing relieved stress quite like a good nap.

An hour later...

He woke up from his nap and decided to put the Magma Attribute to the test.

Wooong!

Bringing his hands together as if scooping water from a pond, he channeled his mana to conjure magma in his hands.

Plop! Plop! Plop! Plop!

While some might argue it should be called lava instead of magma since it didn't come out from the ground, the distinction was minimal. After all, lava was essentially magma that flowed out of the ground, so it was technically correct to call it magma.

The magma Han-Yeol conjured was far more destructive and hotter than natural underground magma, but to his surprise, it felt quite warm to him, akin to warm water.

Mana was intricate, recognizing its owner, and the magma conjured by Han-Yeol acknowledged him as its owner, causing no harm.

He pondered what to do with this skill. The first thing that came to mind was a certain marine from a famous Japanese animation who used magma as his main weapon. Though impressive, Han-Yeol decided against pursuing it.

‘His entire body was made out of magma. That doesn't suit me.’

While he could conjure magma, his entire body wasn't made of it. Additionally, the animation only showcased the marine's skills and weaknesses without explaining the mechanism, making replication challenging for Han-Yeol.

So what now?

‘As expected, simplicity is the best policy!’ Han-Yeol, preferring simplicity, immediately got to work with his ideas.

Chwak...

“Hmm?”

He slightly shifted his fingers, feeling uncomfortable in the same position, but he noticed that the magma had a consistency similar to wet clay.

‘Oh right, magma was basically earth and metals melted in extreme temperatures.’

Magma wasn't a simple liquid but a complicated matter that would become extremely hard when it dried up.

‘That means... I can shape the magma into something if I play around with it!’

Of course, this would be considered insane if attempted with real magma. However, the magma he was using now was conjured from his own mana, making nothing impossible for him.

‘Hehe, this should be fun!’ Han-Yeol snickered in excitement at the thought of manipulating the magma.

"What's so funny, master?" Tia asked.

"Ah, that is..." Han-Yeol began explaining his plan to create a new skill while manipulating the magma to Tia.

He was always cautious about explaining his skills to others, usually sharing only forty-nine percent of his trust. However, he didn't keep any secrets from Mavros or Tia, as he considered both of them his own.

Tia's face lit up after hearing Han-Yeol's explanation. "Omo! That sounds fun!"

"Huh?” Han-Yeol felt a chill down his spine as Tia flashed a sinister smile upon hearing about his plan to create a new skill.
