Demon King Priest - Chapter 179: Unexpected Reunion
***Edited by Kronost***
“Damn it! That guy didn’t take it lightly. Almost beat me to death. Now I will see where he is going to find someone to marry the bear clan princess.” The golden-haired man, who was beaten to the ground, scolded and stood up. But it seemed that he had suffered some internal injuries making his body a little wobbly.
“Bear princess?” Hearing this name, Ulysses immediately thought of his lustful beastmen warrior friend, Kanka. ‘The back of this big guy is exactly the same as him. Could he…’
“Kanka!! Come back with us! The princess is really angry!” A deafening roar came from the other side of the wall, proving Ulysses’s conjecture.
After the roar, a giant man who was a little taller than Kanka walked out of the broken wall. The giant man’s face was covered with black hair, and his eyes stared straight at Kanka who had just gotten up from the ground. He looked furious, like he wanted to smash Kanka.
“Damn! Don’t go too far! I, Kanka, won’t give up the whole forest for a tree. So I will never marry the princess. That would be like ending my life! Kill me if you want. Don’t talk so much. I know I can’t beat you, a level six warrior! But I will never give in!” The golden-haired man, that was, Kanka turned around with a fearless expression on his face.
The bear warrior hearing him turned even more furious and answered him with a big fist. With the sound of “pop!” Kanka’s huge body started flying again.
“Uh, Arcelia, Aya, let’s go. There is nothing concerning us here.” After knowing that beating Kanka was the guard dispatched by the girl he had abandoned, Ulysses gave up on helping. In his opinion, this was Kanka’s own problem. Not to mention that the sixth-level warrior did not seem to have done it heavy-handedly. Although he seemed to be playing very hard, in fact, all his subordinates were merciful. With Kanka’s fifth-level beastmen warrior’s body, such an attack would not really hurt him. This showed that the six-level bear clan beastmen warrior was just teaching him a lesson.
‘Kanka; May the Supreme God bless you.’ After praying for Kanka in his heart, Ulysses planned to leave the street with Aya and the girls.
But, it seemed that Ulysses and Kanka were destined to meet today. Kanka, who was sent flying by the bear warrior, fell straight between Ulysses and the girls. And was ruthlessly stepped on by Mina, who was carrying the anchor.
“Ahhhhh! Who is stepping on me? Huh! Ulysses? You are back in Taji City!” Kanka, who had been stepped on by Mina, ignoring the pain, got up angrily. He turned his eyes to the team in front of him, and soon found out the black-robe mage that he couldn’t be more familiar with.
“Ah! It’s you, Kanka! It’s been a long time!” Ulysses greeted with a guilty conscience.
“Damn it! Ulysses, since you are here, why didn’t you help me? Didn’t you see how badly I was beaten? Give me magic treatment, quickly. If I have you, I can also try to beat that stupid bear. These past few days I’ve not been able to live the life of a normal person. I was beaten by him all day long. Except for my face that was not beaten because of the princess’s orders, I was beaten all over the body very hard.” Kanka roared wildly, his eyes emitting fire. It seemed that he had indeed lived a terrible life these few days, as could be seen from the scars all over his body.
“You are really hopeless, Kanka. Didn’t I tell you not to step on a few boats? The Supreme God will punish those who do it. Since you encountered the princess of the bear clan, you should accept your fate this time! She’s not any ordinary beastmen girl! Just give up your messy life.” Ulysses said helplessly.
“In the name of Ulysses, healing!”
“In the name of Ulysses, acceleration spell!”
“In the name of Ulysses, Shield of Light!” Still, Ulysses treated Kanka and also added two more auxiliary spells to him.
“Oh! Thank you! Ulysses, you really are my best friend! Sleeping with thousands of beauties is my ultimate goal in life. How can I give up easily!” Kanka, receiving Ulysses’ treatment, automatically ignored his advice. Feeling that his body was getting better, he immediately rushed towards the bearman warrior who was slowly coming here.
However, although he had the auxiliary magic given to him by Ulysses, the gap of one level was not so easy to overcome. Soon, Kanka was defeated.
“Giant Bear Argentina attack!” Kanka, who rushed towards the bearman warrior, was thrown almost ten meter high into the sky. When Kanka fell, he was caught again, and then tossed into the sky.
Once, twice…. After juggling Kanka up and down twice, the bearman warrior jumped into the air, grabbed Kanka and knocked his body over. He propped his body on his back, and then intended to press him to the ground.
‘Oh no, Kanka will be seriously injured if he is pressed down. Although it is not life-threatening, a few broken bones are inevitable.’ Ulysses saw that the battle situation had changed and immediately asked Arcelia next to him:
“Arcelia, if possible, please stop them. That lion beastmen warrior is my friend…”
“Understood!” Before Ulysses could finish speaking, Arcelia rushed into the battle of two beastmen warriors like a gust of wind.
“Blap! Blap!” Two soft sounds issued. One of Arcelia using one hand to suppress the bearman warrior’s full strength and easily dissolving it. And the other was the sound of her knocking him in the air with the other hand. For such opponents, Arcelia had no need to use Phantasm.
In fact, all of this happened in a fraction of a second. Almost a second after Ulysses spoke, the battle was over. In front of the overwhelming power of the seventh-level powerhouse, the sixth-level bear warrior did not have time to react at all.
‘What! How is it possible?’ Kanka, who was rescued by Arcelia, couldn’t believe his eyes. The bear clan master who beat him to the ground was defeated by one hand of the knight girl in front of him. This was beyond his imagination.
“Who are you? I am the squad leader of the bear clan’s princess guard. Level six warrior, Tammy! If you want to help this lustful lion, come and fight me!” After being sent flying by Arcelia, the bear warrior returned soon. Arcelia’s blow didn’t seem to use much power, because his face was full of fighting spirit, and he looked eager to fight Arcelia.
Among beastmen warriors, fighting the strong was an honor. And it was not a shame to be defeated by the strong. In Tammy’s opinion, the knight girl in front of him should be a master who had already reached the apex of level 6. So the blood in his whole body started boiling, preparing to fight this sudden enemy.
But Arcelia’s answer made his boiling blood cool down. It was like adding ice cubes to the spinal cord, making him cool down from the head.
“I am a guardian knight, Arcelia. The seventh-level knight of humans.” The polite answer contained a message that almost stopped Kanka and Tammy’s heart.
“Seven! A seventh-level powerhouse. How could such a thing happen? You… Damn it. Anyway, let’s have a fight! Ah!” Tammy hesitated for a moment, and in the end his instinct as a beastmen warrior won. After a wild roar, he started his beast transformation and charged toward Arcelia.
After going berserk, Tammy’s body muscles instantly doubled. A distance of more than ten meters passed in a flash, and Tammy, who had increased his strength several times over, rushed towards Arcelia in an instant. Two huge arms made a grab towards her, and the surrounding air seemed to freeze. In the middle of these two hands, there was a suction force that pulled people inwards. This was the special ability that Tammy, who was a high-level beastmen warrior, obtained after going through the transformation called vacuum throwing. In the middle of those two hands, there was a special power that prevented the enemy from moving.
In previous battles, the warriors who got close to Tammy were all defeated by this move without exception. All of them were affected by the vacuum throwing, and then Tammy threw them half to death with the throwing technique. He even used this trick to fight the Earth Magic Bear, which has no fear of magic attacks.
“Big Bear Super Argentina Vacuum Cast!” With a terrifying roar, Tammy hugged Arcelia’s body and was about to throw her in the sky. However, he soon realized that this was simply his wishful thinking. Because he could not grasp Arcelia’s body at all, and his vacuum-throwing arms had not touched Arcelia’s knight armor that exuded a cold light.
“I’m sorry, though we don’t have any hatred between us, because of Ulysses’s order, I have to take action.” Following Arcelia’s unwavering voice like a calm lake, a fist wearing steel gloves gently hit Tammy’s belly.
Although it seemed that it was a simple punch made by Arcelia, Tammy, who received the punch, felt his body go soft and all the strength leave his body. Even the beast transformation got knocked off.
After knocking down Tammy, Arcelia walked back to Ulysses’s team expressionlessly and stood behind Ulysses.
‘It was too slow. If it were me, that big bear would be dead in a second. Of course, if Daddy lets me.’ Helen thought, clenching her fist, but then relaxed again.
‘Elder Sister Arcelia is really merciful! Against such an easy opponent, Mina can fracture his whole body with a dolphin.’ Mina on the side also reached a similar conclusion.
‘Well done, it should be in line with the master’s will. Arcelia seems to understand master’s intention very well! It seems that she is the most trustworthy apostle so far. Helen and Mina are still too inexperienced.’ Aya, who was secretly watching on the side, had a different thought.
“Wow! It’s really the power of a seventh-level powerhouse! Ulysses, when did you meet such a powerful girl?” Kanka, who was rescued by Arcelia, said in surprise. His both eyes widened in shock, and he looked at the scene in front of him in disbelief.
“It’s a long story, Kanka. Come and have breakfast with us. I will tell you.” Ulysses, noticing that his stomach was already protesting, changed the subject. Now he needed one thing the most – breakfast.
“Yes! Mina is starving! Elder Sister Arcelia, you actually didn’t have to go through so much trouble for this kind of guy! Use Phantasm and you can kill him easily. Why did you spend so much time? We should go eat. Yes!! There must be wine!” Mina also echoed Ulysses’s words.
“If using Phantasm, it’s easy to cause unnecessary harm. That’s not what I wanted.” Arcelia calmly answered Mina’s question.
“Okay, let’s go eat!” Ulysses’ words interrupted their dispute. And everyone including Kanka, who was injured, followed him and walked in the direction of the restaurant he had chosen.
‘Damn it! Is this the power of the seventh-level powerhouse? It’s too one-sided! In the face of that overwhelming power, all the skills below level seven have no meaning! It seems that the princess is in trouble. How could Kanka know such a person?’ Tammy, who was knocked to the ground, panted, and finally roared unwaveringly:
“Kanka! Just you wait! I won’t give up like this. For the princess, I will definitely catch you!”
Kanka, after fortunately escaping, got sudden goosebumps all over his body. ‘Strange, I don’t have a cold? Who is cursing this handsome lion-man? Is it the lion-girl of three days ago…’ After touching the golden fur on his head, Kanka quickly threw this matter off his mind. The thing he was most curious about now was how Ulysses, who he hadn’t seen for a long time, met such a group of girls. Although from the aesthetic point of view of beastmen warriors, Arcelia and Mina, who did not have muscles and chest hair were not good-looking. Helen also did not look very good, but the terrifying power still made him respect them.
In the beastmen clan, everything was decided by power, the seventh-level level power represented everything. As long as someone had this level of power, they could almost have anything. No beastmen warrior dared to defy the orders of the seventh-level powerhouses. Unless they didn’t want to stay in the beastmen clan anymore. It could be said that becoming a seventh-level powerhouse was the dream of all beastmen warriors. However, acquiring this level of power is simply as difficult as reaching the sky. Although the beastmen warriors did not have Phantasm, after reaching the seventh level, they also had their unique power. As for the power, it was based on each person’s aptitude.
The dwarves had disappeared in the war of the undead. So now humans had the continent’s best smelting technology and magic weapon manufacturing capabilities. So most of the humans’ Phantasms were made from this technology. And of course, there were also those who directly inherited the Phantasm left behind by the previous powerhouses. But the requirements for that were very high, and generally, only the descendants or disciples of the former Phantasm owner could wield it. It was basically impossible for unrelated people to use those Phantasms.
It was difficult for beastmen warriors to find suitable, excellent weapons to make Phantasm. So most of them would completely rely on their own bodies to make their weapons after breaking through the seventh level. They would use weapons that they would call “Beast Fang”. Although the “Beast Fangs” made from their own flesh were slightly inferior to the Phantasm, which humans make from the best weapons. The “Beast Fangs” of the beastmen warrior were better than the Human-Phantasms in terms of the durability and hardness of the weapon.
But this matter was not absolute. In fact, humans also had Phantasm made with their own power. Compared to those Phantasms that were transformed from most high-quality weapons, this kind of Phantasms was generally less powerful. But it may have strange powers that ordinary Phantasm would not possess. For example, the Phantasm “Holy Script” held by the present Pope was formed by his heart of prayer.
Some people would upgrade the weapons they had been using to Phantasm with their own power. The most famous example was Dragon-Slayer Carl’s Buster Sword. With his resolute will to slay everything, he infinitely strengthened an ordinary giant sword he originally held, and finally turned it into the sword of destruction that surpassed all other swords in the world. Under this sword, there was nothing that couldn’t be cut. It was more powerful than the “Ultimate Sword” that was forged by the dwarves from the finest materials that could be found in the world. The proof was that the person holding the “Ultimate Sword” failed to break the indestructible body of the dragon, and ultimately died under its claws.
“Here!” After walking for about ten minutes, Ulysses and the others arrived in front of a restaurant.
“Ah! Ulysses, this restaurant is very expensive. A breakfast here costs a dozen silver coins. Why did you bring me here?” Kanka yelled after looking at the restaurant in front.
“Don’t worry. Kanka, I didn’t ask you to pay. Aya, Arcelia, Helen, and…” Ulysses spoke lightly, but he paused when he spotted the girl with the huge anchor.
“I’m Mina! Let’s go in. I’m so hungry!! I’m so hungry that If I don’t eat anymore, I will sue you for abusing young girls!” Mina said angrily.
“That’s right! Kanka, let’s go in together! It’s a treat today. Come and eat a high-end breakfast that you haven’t eaten in a long time! I remember you liked the food here, right?” After speaking, Ulysses took the lead and entered the restaurant.
‘Hmmm, since among the people Ulysses knows, there are seven-level powerhouses, it’s not too much to come here. But how did he come to know them? Haven’t heard him say it before? Strange… ‘ After glancing at Arcelia with a calm face, Kanka straightened his chest and walked into the high-end restaurant he had only visited when he needed to talk to his client about his mission with his Commander of the Wild Beast….Looking for volunteering editors to speed up my releasing speed.
