[The Constellation, ‘Moon-Cleaving Flash’ bestows upon you the skill ‘One Extreme Flash (A+)’.]

[Changes the payment time for the fee to ‘After Dungeon Clear’.]

Along with the System message window, a message from the Constellation appeared.

[The Constellation, ‘Moon-Cleaving Flash’ explains that it’s a technique to pierce with concentrated mana.]

[The Constellation, ‘Moon-Cleaving Flash’ says that its power is comparable to that of any powerful spear.]

[The Constellation, ‘Moon-Cleaving Flash’ urges you to be grateful.]

…..

Well, I’m grateful for the gift, but…

‘Where am I supposed to use this right now?’

An attack specialized in piercing.

However, the depth I felt when I broke through with the Mana Beam earlier was far beyond that of the Immortal Longsword.

[The Constellation, ‘Moon-Cleaving Flash’ marvels at your ignorance.]

….Why?

[The Constellation, ‘Moon-Cleaving Flash’ advises you to use it with Sacred Haze.]

[The Constellation, ‘Moon-Cleaving Flash’ says the reason it gave you this skill isn’t to inflict damage with it.]

With Sacred Haze?

“Come to think of it, it said it resonated with Sacred Haze earlier.”

A System message appeared along with the appearance of the Divine Beast.

Remembering that, I lifted the Immortal Longsword, thinking I should give it a try.

And mana surged throughout my body.

[Skill, ‘Sacred Haze (S)’ is activated.]

[Your legs become as fierce as a river.]

[Your arms become like a Divine Beast.]

[The power has been amplified by contact with the sacred power.]

A different message than when I used it for the first time.

It was probably because it temporarily increased due to contact with the Divine Beast.

A white, sacred aura emanated from my entire body.

But her thoughts didn’t end there.

‘I can’t end it with just this.’

I lightly bit my right hand, drawing blood.

And once again, the System appeared.

[Blood has been detected.]

[The effect of the epithet, ‘Sword Demon’ is activated.]

[The effect of the title, ‘Cold Blood (B)’ is activated.]

I further enhanced my body, which felt strengthened by activating Sacred Haze.

And I was about to plunge it into the floor as the Constellation had said, but…

[S-Rank Hunter ‘Fallen Grace’ grants you ‘Divine Armor (S)’.]

[Strength, leg strength, and defense are temporarily increased.]

Another System window appeared.

Fallen?

“…..?”

“Judging by the situation, you seem to know, but my Divine Armor skill has also been enhanced.”

“Ah… thank you.”

It was a skill I was hearing about for the first time, but I assumed it was because it hadn’t stood out before. I once again gripped the Immortal Longsword in reverse and raised it high.

And.

“Hah!”

[Skill, ‘One Extreme Flash (A+)’ is activated.]

The already white aura surrounding the sword was covered with an even fiercer blue aura, and Ha-yeon plunged the sword into the floor.

Bang!

As expected, the surroundings were destroyed and the floor cracked, but it didn’t reach the inside…

“….!!”

[Contact with divine energy.]

[Key, ‘Sacred Power’ has been identified.]

[Entering the Divine Beast’s world, Sacred Domain (Trial-2).]

Along with the unknown words, her vision was dyed with aurora.

“Finally arrived at the Sacred Domain… Hurry up and get here, Baek Ha-yeon.”

Amidst the multitude of stars filling the top, bottom, left, and right, heaven and earth.

A white-haired boy muttered while sitting on something split in half.

But the energy and pressure emanating from that boy were by no means something that could come from him.

The kind of energy that a general who commanded an era, a king who ruled the world, or a hero who left his name in mythology would emit.

No, an overwhelming presence that even they couldn’t emit.

His tone was endlessly light, but anyone who saw him would inevitably break out in a cold sweat.

“The price is quite steep, you know. It’s tough…”

Crackle.

White Thunderclap surrounded the boy.

Judging by the fact that there was no change in the boy’s expression, one might think it was just an effect.

In reality, it was Divine Punishment that would instantly turn an S-Rank Hunter to dust if they simply touched it.

“I’m getting tired of these guys too.”

As he said that, he moved his hand very slowly.

The background of the front, which I thought was a universe filled with countless stars, distorted and red blood spurted out.

The Giant Dragon Penelgius.

A super-giant monster that roams the universe, also known as an SS-Rank monster.

He sent such Penelgius to his death with just a slow hand movement.

But the boy didn’t even flinch. He just checked that it was dead as if it were natural and looked at the window that appeared in front of him.

There was a blonde woman there.

The boy smiled slightly at the woman and said this.

“Hurry up and come here… Contractor.”

For reference, the name of the object the boy was sitting on was.

The moon.

“Ugh…..”

My back hurts.

It feels like I fell asleep in a cobra twist position on a cold floor.

It really hurts like hell.

I thought I wouldn’t feel like this after becoming an S-Rank, but why the hell…

With that thought, I got up from where I had fallen and started looking around.

“Where is this?”

Here was a giant sky and Ha-yeon on a platform flying in that sky.

It was a sight I had never seen before.

No, if there was a place like this, I would definitely know.

[The Constellation, ‘Moon-Cleaving Flash’ says that this place is the Sacred Domain, the realm of the Divine Beast.]

“Sacred Domain?”

Come to think of it, some message popped up earlier.

“The world of the Divine Beast… Sacred Domain, the second trial, was it?”

But why the second trial?

What about the third?

[The Constellation, ‘Moon-Cleaving Flash’ says it’s not in order.]

“Ah…. But come to think of it, Constellation-nim, you know what’s going on, right?”

Judging by the fact that you’ve been explaining it since earlier, you seem to know what’s going on and where this is.

[The Constellation, ‘Moon-Cleaving Flash’ clears its throat and remains silent.]

I guess I’m not supposed to say it.

I quickly dropped the thought, thinking that there must be restrictions for Constellations as well.

This doesn’t seem like an ordinary space.

“If you think about it, is it a Dungeon inside a Dungeon?”

Just as I was muttering that.

The System window, which I don’t know how many times it’s appeared today, popped up again.

[You have entered Trial-2.]

[There are a total of 2 trials, and this is the first trial area.]

[Rewards and victory will be given to those who clear the trial, and death and defeat will be given to those who fail to clear it. Thank you for giving it your all.]

“A total of 2?”

Seeing that this is the first trial area, there must be one more trial area of this kind.

I let out a hollow laugh for a moment at the level that was completely different from humans, and then a message popped up saying that the trial was starting.

[The first trial begins.]

[The first trial is ‘Survival’.]

Survival?

From what?

I was momentarily flustered by the incomprehensible trial name.

-Kuaaaaaa!!

Something huge rose from the sky right in front of the platform.

About the size of a 50-story building.

Yes, it was a dragon, as they say.

[You have encountered the S+ Rank monster ‘Sky Guardian Dragon’.]

[Survive the Sky Guardian Dragon for 2 minutes!]

Sky Guardian Dragon? That’s one crazy scary name.

[The Constellation, ‘Moon-Cleaving Flash’ says that it can only be marked as S+ on the System, but it is actually an SS+ Rank monster and advises you to just run away.]

An SS+ Rank monster.

I was going to try to catch it, but I guess I should just run.

The guy who flew into the sky boasted his huge wings that covered the sky and his blue scales that shone in the sunlight, and looked down at Ha-yeon.

“Hey, wouldn’t you cut me some slack? You’re pretty scary.”

-I’m sorry, but I have a contract to fulfill.

……?

“Did you just…..”

-Let the trial begin.

I was flustered by the monster who was saying things I had never heard before, but he ignored my words and started attacking.

-Flame.

It was a simple word, but the aftermath was by no means simple.

Fireballs that filled the huge wings so densely that they were barely visible.

Even if it was a skill used by an ordinary Hunter, each and every one of them contained mana that was at least A+ Rank.

This is going to be pretty tough.

“You crazy bastard!”

I immediately used Sacred Haze to increase my body’s physical abilities and poured mana into the Immortal Longsword to increase my magic resistance.

And I cut down the first of the fireballs that came quickly, dodged to the side, and then…

“Keuk!”

I tried to knock away the fireball next to me, but the speed of the fireball suddenly increased.

If it’s around SS+ Rank, can it control the speed of the fireball that has already been created and fired?

Still, thanks to Derkael’s Immortality, I wasn’t injured.

After that, I got the hang of it and cut down the fireballs that were flying in one by one, and dodged the fireballs that were approaching quickly by sliding with Sacred Haze.

‘This is manageable?’

And there was a time when I thought that too.

If it weren’t for what happened next.

-You’re doing quite well, so I have to show you an example of that.

As he said that, he flapped his wings once, and suddenly a huge shadow appeared in the sky.

Not a shadow created by the Sky Guardian Dragon’s massive body.

A circular shadow….

No way.

“……You have no conscience.”

That’s right.

The attack that he inflicted with just a flap of his wings was.

“Meteor….”

None other than high-level magic.

It was a meteor.
