Evan D. Sherden, Went Beyond Bounds (2)

Shine cleared the hidden boss on the 70th floor. Evan expected many artifacts would pop out again this time, but the same miracle as the 65th floor didn’t come so quickly.

Instead, an artifact came out of the reward room. It wasn’t naturally obtained from the boss but rather prepared as a reward for the dungeon. It’s an object with the breath of a Demon, and that point was a matter of concern.

“Blood Crystal Bracelet of Evil Rod… what’s the Blood Crystal, Master?”

“Well, it’s time for you to know that the Demon tribe are starting to show up from the 70th floor.”

After breaking the devil statue to absorb the demon spirit into his boots, Evan, who discovered the Bracelet that Shine was holding, nodded, saying it was just the right time.

“Blood crystal is the cohesion of energy that only appears among the Demon tribe. Monsters often do that, but the Demons especially contain a lot of information and abilities in their blood. After a Demon’s death, the Blood Crystal forms by concentrating the blood with high energy. The same tribes take it and inherit its power. That’s why we can’t feel safe even if the number of Demon tribes decreases. The smaller the quantity, the higher the quality.”

“And sometimes they process it into artifacts and use it.”

“Yeah. It’s just an artifact for the Demon tribe.”

If worn by other than the Demon tribe, for example, humans, they became usually insane or taken away by remnants of the Demon tribe that remained in the Blood Crystal. Of course, it was affected by the power of the Devil.

Although the penalty was fatal, it’s not like there is no way to wear it at all. So, the Yo-Ma Great War series’s diehard players equipped only the Blood Crystal Artifacts on their bare bodies and even achieved no—die-clear to the Final Boss.

“But you wouldn’t have to wear it, Shine. You know why, don’t you?”

“Well, I see. Then, let’s go right away.”

There was one way to use the Blood Crystal of the Demon tribe in the game; the only way was to break the blood crystal with weapon artifacts and absorb only its ability.

Due to the characteristics of the Yo-Ma Great War series, which had more Demon tribes in the latter part of the game, the Blood Crystal is a final boss’s weapon. The only disadvantage was that the scimitar was considered one of the rare weapons.

‘The Blood Sucker is a weapon made by using the blood-leeching scimitar and blood cells. And the twin Blood Horn, which Shine now holds in his hands, was a weapon created by adding dragon bones, using the scimitar that has grown far more powerful than the blood cells.’

Originally, the Blood Sucker had limitations in absorbing Blood Crystals, but the enhanced twin Blood Horn’s limits were unknown in every sense.

The twin Blood Horn was the weapon that eliminated all the shortcomings of the Blood Sucker and overwhelmingly enhanced its performance!

“Hmm!”

Shine received Evan’s anticipated gaze and smashed the Blood Crystal with the double daggers. The twin Blood Horn absorbed the terrible demonic energy.

Shortly afterward, Shine disappeared as if he had been logged-off from the spot and then appeared like a mirage on the other side of the compensation room. He was originally a shadow-stepping character, so he was incredibly fast, but now, even the brief delay seemed to have disappeared.

“Oh…! It’s not a joke…!”

Shine’s tension was too high. It seemed that the characteristics of the absorbed Blood Crystal were quite good.

“Okay, let’s talk about the 71st floor now.”

And Evan, who had no history of discovering artifacts to help deal with Heaven’s Step, turned the subject around with a moderate nod to him.

“Oh, you could have reacted a little more…!”

“Amazing, Shine. That was cool. Come here.”

“The 71st floor…… three years ago, you prohibited us from going down to the 71st floor, saying we were not ready yet.”

After leaving the annoying Shine to Anastasia, Belois replied to Evan. Evan nodded and said.

“I said it earlier. From the 71st floor, the Demon tribe will appear frequently, and that’s not all. I told you that before, right? The attributes of the monsters will vary. The gas type, ice type, space type, drive type…if you’re stuck with the stereotype that only living or dead animal- and plant-type monsters we’ve encountered so far will appear, then it is impossible to break through beyond the 71st floor.”

“So, Master, is there a chance that the monster will ignore my defense and approach others?”

“Uh, um…”

Evan stopped at Raihan’s sudden question. Evan didn’t have a chance to check it out in the original game because Raihan had never joined the protagonist and entered the dungeon…!

“I don’t know about that, but some monsters attack the whole team in a flash.”

“Well, I think I can focus the whole attack on myself now, but…….”

“Anyway!”

Evan, who forcibly cut off Raihan’s words to not let go of his pride as a tanker, continued again.

“Every enemy that appears from the 71st floor has dark mana. Moreover, mana resistance is essential because the dungeon’s inner walls emit thick mana, just like breathing. That’s why I told you three years ago that you weren’t ready. I wanted to raise your mana resistance ability to the point where you could at least roll around in the mana.”

“In such a situation, we could get mana resistance ability from nothing.”

“You don’t know anything. There are plenty of ways to catch the Demon King without getting mana resistance.”

“No, you don’t have to explain that.”

Evan clicked his tongue.

“Well, that’s what happened. Everybody, stay alert from the 71st floor! …And the main monster originally appeared from the 71st floor of the Sherden dungeon.”

appeared in dungeons, but there were monster groups every five floors that dominated the floor. It was no exception after the 71st floor, where the Demon tribe appeared, and the main species on the 71st floor of the Sherden Dungeon…

“It’s the Succubus.”

“Oh…”

As soon as Evan said that, the men exchanged sharp eyes! Soon after, Anastasia’s fingernails dug deep into Shine’s forearm.

“Arghhhhhh! No, I didn’t think of anything! I didn’t!”

“Don’t even think about weird things. I’ll never give you to a monster.”

“Shine…”

Raihan would be okay because his lovers weren’t here to mark him, but Evan wasn’t. Except for Anastasia, the rest of the women were watching Evan.

According to their strategy, they would tie Evan up here and go. So, Evan said with a small sigh.

“You don’t have to look like that. The Incubus comes out, too.”

“But I’m already fascinated by Evan; how will I be charmed by the Incubus?”

“I told you not to talk about such shameful things and to have some dignity.”

Evan sighed in absurdity. Of course, even if he couldn’t see it with his eyes, he knew that he had a lot of attractiveness, but they didn’t have to act on it just because he was attractive!

“You can typically combat the Attractive Status by resisting fascination. However, around the Succubus that appears in the dungeon’s depths, we can’t resist the attractive status alone. That’s why I didn’t want to go down to the 71st floor before.”

“It wasn’t just about mana resistance.”

“Yes, of course, it’s going to be tough, but we can somehow break through the dungeon without having some resistance to mana. It’s not a requirement; it’s a sufficient condition. But the Succubus, Incubus, and Night Hag races are different. We’ll have to pull out two or three pillars of Brotherhood Corporation, no matter how rich the Brotherhood Corporation is, to equip all the party members with supplies and artifacts for resisting their fascination.”

However, Evan continued with a big smile.

“What would it be like now if the dungeons were fused?”

“Ah…!”

People who had been giving each other suspicious eyes stopped at once. They now realized why Evan, who had been delaying the attack on the 71st floor, now insisted on charging on the 71st floor, believing only in mana resistance.

“The fascination of the Succubus and Incubus depends greatly on their appearance. But what if it’s mixed up with other monsters and it’s a mess? Will their fascination have a great effect? No, at least, it won’t work for us.”

Therefore, even in Yo-Ma Great War 3, those who had entered the 71st floor of the dungeon before the Great Change were only those who were confident in resisting the fascination of Succubus and Incubus, or who wanted to collect the CG that came out when Succubus killed them.

Otherwise, they would wait for the Great Change and train other areas hard. When they went into the dungeon after the Great Change, there was no Succubus or Incubus, and only weird monsters welcomed the players. At that time, violence and mana worked well.

“But just in case, let’s put a protective spell on us. Raihan, please give us a blessing. Mirole, can I ask you for a favor?”

“Okay.”

“As much as you want.”

“Druids have a magic that protects the mind, so I’ll invoke it.”

“Then me, too.”

Anastasia and Belois, who cast protective magic over the party, were worried about what monsters would show up. Evan smiled bitterly and confirmed the quadruple protection spell on him.

‘I think this will stop the curse of the Demon King at least once…’

Furthermore, it would be unnecessary to say that the Succubus had melted down in appearance. Since Evan didn’t have to waste time maintaining his protective magic, he immediately headed to the 71st floor with his party. It was finally the first step into the unanswered questions of the dungeon!

It was a beach cave that reached down the stairs. The seawater is now quite familiar, which is pushed by the legs and bumped into it. So far, it had been a pretty unnatural environment, but this place was in great harmony.

“Well, that sounds pretty good…”

“If we combine the environment of Sherden and Pellati Dungeon, I think we’ll find a place like this. But wait a minute, I’ve heard the story of a monster appearing in a similar environment at the Pellati Dungeon…”

Arisha frowned and murmured as the party looked around without thinking.

“Of course, it’s in the depths of the Pellati Dungeon, so it’s only in the record…”

“Whether anything appears, it would be fused with the deep floors of Sherden; so, that information won’t help much.”

“I think it was called Siren.”

“…What?”

Evan stiffened on the spot. The possibility that he was not even considering it because it was too thin has risen to the surface. But as soon as Evan tried to order the party to retreat, it happened.

– Lalala.

Simultaneously, from the water and in the air, a song of temptation echoed and filled the space.

It was more deadly than a Siren’s voice in legends; it contained the additional mana of the Succubus.

“Crazy, I thought the sand whale would be the last fusion of monsters…”

How could it be that Merdin Dungeon’s absence from the fusion had created such a terrible

Ahead of the eyes of the shuddering Evan and his party, mermaids with bat wings began to emerge from the water.

– Lalala.

It wasn’t just that. As if it was a complete victory, Sirens with bird wings appeared in the air.

Perhaps heavily influenced by the fusion with the Succubus, they were even more deadly because they had a fascinating female body instead of a bird’s body.

The Demon tribe, with the combination of a Succubus and a Siren’s appearance, had enhanced charm! It was perfect and beautiful enough to be called a new race.

– Lala…la…

The Demon tribes, who had gathered around Evan’s party in a flash, raising their voices, stopped singing in front of him. The high mana was concentrated, trying to suffocate the group.

It was too late to retreat. Cruel angels possessing fascinating beauty incomparable to humanity already surrounded them.

Evan was about to ask Mirole for help when his circlet gave off a dazzling glow.

-What a beautiful human being.

-I feel like I’m his prisoner.

-Wait, everyone, don’t sing! The fascination is bouncing off!

-Oh, it’s too late.

-I think I’ve been hit, too.

-I never thought there was a man who could reflect on our fascination…

The Sirens gathered near him all at once and leaned their heads still at his feet. The Sirens, who were spreading their wings, were now folding those wings and sitting still near him, watching him.

“……”

“Evan, what’s wrong with the fascination resistance?”

Arisha asked quietly as all the knights, including Evan, became quiet in the face of the incredulous situation. Evan replied with a shrug.

“I won’t cheat on you, so don’t worry…Why don’t you put down that rapier that you’re aiming at me?”

Evan’s body was shaking slightly before he knew it.

He was sure that it wasn’t the Sirens’ call that made him shudder.
