The 100th Regression of the Max-Level Player - Chapter 224: The Decisive Battle (1)

[You have located the target ‘Uriel.’]

[Currently, they are 601 meters away.]

Ryu Min, with his black wings fluttering, checked the remaining distance as he soared through the sky.

‘I’m getting closer.’

Thanks to his tracking skill, finding an angel wasn’t difficult. However, he was surprised that they were still in the Forest of Demonic Beasts after nearly an hour.

‘Did they spend too much time calling reinforcements?’

He was curious. How many reinforcements had they summoned while he was away?

‘Please, let it be more than 99.’

With an excited heart, he activated his detection skill to scan the area. The forest was dotted with numerous red points.

‘This is… more than I expected.’

After counting, he confirmed there were easily over 100—closer to 200, in fact.

It was no mistake. As he closed within 100 meters, the confirmation came.

[There are 202 enemies within a 100-meter radius.]

[Due to the Rune of One Against Many, all stats are increased by 100%.]

‘It’s clear. Aside from the two archangels, they’ve brought 200 troops.’

It seemed they had gathered as many reinforcements as possible to deal with him, but that worked in his favor.

‘With this many, I can activate the Demon’s Blessing and stack it even further.’

Ryu Min suppressed a laugh and slowly descended to the ground.

In the devastated forest, Raguel and Uriel were staring intently at him.

‘They knew I was coming. That’s why they prepared this surprise attack.’

Although they had tried to hide behind the trees for an ambush, Ryu Min’s keen sense of presence detection made it impossible for him not to notice.

‘Too obvious. I don’t even need to read their minds.’

They planned to distract him while the 200 troops ambushed him. Little did they know that their surprise had already been exposed.

‘Do they not realize I can detect presences?’

It didn’t matter. They had gathered an impressive number of sacrifices for him.

‘Since they want to throw a surprise party, I should at least pretend to be surprised.’

Feigning ignorance of their gazes, Ryu Min approached the archangels.

“You guys are still here?”

[Thanks to a certain bastard who ripped off our wings.]

“Can’t even walk without your wings? Pathetic.”

Raguel’s face twisted in anger.

Seeing how easily provoked he was, Ryu Min couldn’t help but chuckle.

‘Oh, you’re holding back your anger? Is it because of the plan?’

Raguel sighed and, trying to divert attention, spoke.

[And why did you run away? I saw you fleeing without even looking back. Were you scared of us?]

“Scared of just the two of you? Hardly.”

[Or was it because you couldn’t use your blackened form anymore, so you fled?]

“This?”

Ryu Min immediately activated his Death Transformation.

[……!]

Uriel and Raguel’s eyes widened in disbelief. They hadn’t expected him to be able to use it so soon.

“Surprised? The cooldown’s already up.”

[…….]

“Why would I come back if I wasn’t confident I could take you?”

As he took a step forward, signaling the start of the fight, Uriel shouted urgently.

[Attack!]

At Uriel’s command, the 200 troops hidden in the forest revealed themselves all at once.

[Uwaaaaah!]

The fifth-rank battle angels, each armed, charged toward their target, the black figure.

Even the archangels didn’t just stand by.

[I’ve been waiting for you to transform! Now I’ll kill you!]

Raguel revealed his true wicked intention and rushed forward with his subordinates.

Uriel, true to his role as a mage, began preparing spells from behind to suppress Ryu Min.

Despite being surrounded by angels aiming to kill him, Ryu Min remained calm.

‘Shall I show off a bit?’

In the blink of an eye, Ryu Min vanished like a ghost.

[Huh?]

The angels, having lost their target, looked around in confusion.

Uriel’s prepared spell, a scroll of light, twisted aimlessly through the air before fading away.

[W-Where did he go?]

Both Uriel and Raguel were dumbfounded, scanning the area in panic. Even the archangels couldn’t see Ryu Min.

‘Not even archangels can see through invisibility? Or maybe it’s the stealth rune that’s erasing my presence?’

Ryu Min, having gleaned this valuable information, moved like the wind.

Crunch! Crack!

The sound of bones breaking and bodies collapsing echoed. Angels fell one by one, their necks twisted.

[Archangel! Over here—! Urk!]

In a swift motion, Ryu Min grabbed another angel by the neck and twisted it.

Crack! Thud!

[Number of angels killed: 21/100]

In no time, Ryu Min had already killed over 20 angels, and the numbers continued to climb rapidly.

[H-He’s here! The human is here!]

One of the soldiers shouted, but it was too late. Uriel and Raguel, watching their subordinates fall, were horrified.

‘W-What the hell? How is he this fast?’

‘He’s moving so quickly, I can’t even follow him with my eyes!’

Ryu Min’s speed was blinding. By the time they thought they had located him, he had already moved on, leaving only afterimages.

The angels had no chance.

[Kill him! Kill that monster!]

Despite Raguel’s orders, the battle angels hesitated. How were they supposed to kill an enemy they couldn’t even track with their eyes? Their blades only sliced through his afterimages.

They had no hope of catching up to his movements.

Thud! Thud! Thud!

[This is absurd…!]

As the casualties mounted, Raguel and Uriel grew increasingly desperate.

The forest was now littered with the bodies of angels, their necks twisted.

[Stop him! All of you, attack!]
