“Success!”

“Great!”

Leon and Udilis were both overjoyed as they watched all the pawns of the Old Demon Clan Faction turn to char within the flames.

Not just Leon and Udilis, but Beren and others also erupted into wild elation.

“It truly works!”

“Indeed, our Magic Tools are the real trump cards!”

“Ha ha!”

“We’ve won this time!”

Knights and adventurers alike went into a frenzy of joy, even Beren couldn’t help but clench his fists. Alis, who had harbored doubts about the “Magic Tools” before, was now completely overtaken by joy.

“Vivian, Sister!”

“Sister!”

Lu Muya and Merica were also over the moon, jumping around next to Vivian.

“Phew…”

Vivian couldn’t help but let out a sigh of relief and smiled.

“This way, there’s a lot less pressure.”

Tielle glanced in Shane’s direction and murmured softly.

Shane then gathered his magic power and looked at the charred bodies on the ground and said.

“Well, this was just an appetizer.”

Because the truly troublesome person was just about to erupt.

As everyone was cheering, an extreme pressure accompanied by overwhelming magic power swept through the area.

“How dare you… How dare you…!”

With an uncontrollably furious growl, Beddo’s eyes completely turned blood-red.

“I want you all to die!”

Finally, Beddo erupted.

He, who had become a leader of the Old Demon Clan, pulled a Magic Potion from his bosom and gulped it down directly.

“Clang!”

A rich glow burst forth from Beddo’s body, allowing him to rise, his eyes filled with ferocity as he fixed his gaze here.

And on Beddo’s chest, a wound that was almost fatal was rapidly healing at a visible rate.

This caused the magic power and pressure swirling around Beddo to become increasingly terrifying, making everyone, who was previously overjoyed, show looks of horror.

“This is trouble…”

Vivian’s expression darkened.

“This Beddo…”

Tielle’s voice also turned grave.

Even Shane raised his eyebrow and looked at Beddo with a renewed scrutiny.

Not because Beddo’s wound was healed.

Although Shane hadn’t expected Beddo to have a Magic Potion that could heal such a severe wound in one go, he never thought this guy could be dealt with so easily.

So, Beddo’s eruption was within Shane’s expectations.

However, Shane hadn’t anticipated that Beddo would seem even more formidable than the rumors suggested.

Shane focused his attention and closely watched Beddo, who was mired in fury, activating both “Enemy Detection” and “Magic Perception” to peel into Beddo’s malice and magic power, attempting to gauge his current strength.

Then…

“New skill acquired—[Identification]—Learn it?”

The new Skill appeared just as Shane was attentively observing Beddo.

This skill sparked a glint in Shane’s eyes.

The reason was simple, as it was one of the skills Shane desired most at the moment.

It could identify people, demons, and even objects, providing the identifier with precise information about the target.

Originally, when Shane applied to be an adventurer, the Guild used a Magic Tester, which was akin to a Level 6 [Identification]Skill.

Now, having acquired this Skill, Shane didn’t hesitate to learn it and instantly maxed it out.

Thanks to this, Shane finally saw through Beddo’s level—「Lv.84」.

Yes.

Beddo’s level had astonishingly reached eighty-four, even Killian struggled to match that.

Moreover, Beddo mastered three types of magic skills: “Magic·Fire,” “Magic·Dark,” and “Magic·Spirit,” all of which were above Level 7, and he even had the close combat skill “Sharp Claws” that allowed him to tear enemies apart barehanded, at a terrifying Level 6.

“You all, not a single one of you will escape!”

Beddo, consumed by rage, hesitated not at all to unleash a powerful magic on everyone.

“Hellfire!”

As Beddo shouted, the ground below them all began to tremble.

“…!”

Shane, Vivian, and Tielle all reacted.

“Step back!”

Vivian yelled with some anxiety.

“Tch…!”

Tielle, grabbing Lu Muya and Merica before they could respond, quickly darted backward.

As for Shane, without any hesitation, he vigorously threw a stone in Beddo’s direction.

“Bang!”

Instantly, the stone transformed into a powerful cannonball, creating a terrifying sonic boom as it hurtled towards Beddo.

Though Beddo was engulfed in fury, he was not oblivious to the enemy’s attack and, without a second thought, swiftly dodged to the side.

“Boom!”

The incoming stone cannon struck the hastily dodging Beddo’s shoulder, shattering it entirely.

“Aaahhh…!”

Beddo screamed in pain.

Perhaps, even he didn’t expect that he would fail to dodge a mere stone.

The Level 10 “Throwing” skill granted Shane not only precision but also a dramatic increase in the power and speed of the thrown object with each level rise.

Had Shane’s level not been so much lower than Beddo’s, Beddo might not have been able to dodge at all.

But…

“Aaahhh…!”

Beddo’s scream quickly turned into a roar.

Then, his shattered shoulder visibly and swiftly regenerated.

“This is…?”

The scene stunned Shane.

Shane did not know that Beddo had just utilized a magic potion that was still taking effect.

It was a highly coveted magic potion, so rare that even Level 90 super-powered individuals desperately sought it, which continually repaired the user’s body and healed any injuries until the effect wore off, even significantly boosting magic power, allowing the enhancement of magical power without chanting and immediate spell casting.

Thus, Beddo unhesitatingly cast his most powerful magic, the upper-level Dark Magic.

“Go to hell and repent!”

Amidst Beddo’s roaring, the trembling ground shattered.

“Boom!”

Bursts of violent black flames surged from beneath the earth as if the fires of Hell itself had erupted, breaking through the ground and engulfing the entire camp.

“Ah!”

“No!”

Several knights and adventurers were terribly unfortunate to get hit by the shooting black flames, managing only a scream before turning to ashes.

“Run!”

“Don’t!”

“Ahh!”

The others, either in panic or crying out, weren’t directly hit by the black flames but still seemed affected, with several even having their limbs burned off.

In a moment, the entire camp turned into a Hell.

Until…

“Breeze!”

A violent wind unexpectedly blew up from within the sea of fire in Hell.
