Dungeon Maker

Chapter 91 Mighty Warrior 4

It was a lump of blue light. It was so beautiful that it was hard to believe that it came out of a terrifying monster like Agares.

The fire enveloped the bright light. The tip of Aamon became a part of Yong-Ho, allowing him to consume Agares's spirit.

He first felt pleasure and then trembled. It was a big shock, which made it difficult for him to breathe.

It was blue. It was a lightning type.

Greed was awakened, and it consumed Agares's spirit through the fire. It suppressed its powers so that it wouldn't lose anything. Instead of swallowing it whole, Greed broke it apart into a million pieces and thoroughly analyzed it.

It's safe to say that one's spirit was that family's history. There were traces of all the spirits that Agares had consumed up until now.

They were useless. They were just traces that couldn't be used.

But Greed didn't allow it. When Yong-Ho's mana grew stronger, the Power of Evolution wasn't the only thing that grew too.

The spirit's color and element that remained within the traces. It was different from the ones before.

It was impossible for Yong-Ho to control the element separately, like how he did with Foras's coldness. But he could build it up, analyze it and help his body to accept it.

Color and element weren't the only things he acquired.

Agares was a predator. He acquired new traits by eating and that's how he evolved.

It wasn't the power of a demon king. It was a natural trait that his race had.

That trait.

The Power of Evolution yelled. For the Power of Evolution, Greed stored that skill on one side of Yong-Ho's mana.

It was impossible for Yong-Ho to use that skill, but it was possible for him to transfer that skill to someone with similar characteristics and strengthen their skill.

Yuri.

The Princess Ant's face popped into his head. He then felt an exhilarating pleasure, interrupting his thoughts.

Agares's spirit was bigger than any of the other spirits that Yong-Ho consumed. It was really distorted, so it wasn't very pure, but the amount made up for it.

It felt like his spirit and physical body was going to blow apart. He had to release his power. He was disappointed by the fact that he couldn't consume some of the power, but he had to release it. All the other demon kings had to do the same when they consumed a spirit and it was more than they could handle.

But Greed rejected him this time too.

If Yong-Ho's body couldn't handle Agares's mana, then it would make it so that his body could handle it.

A new bowl.

A larger and stronger bowl that can be filled with strong mana!

The Power of Evolution was activated. Agares's mana evolved Yong-Ho's body.

A flash of green light enveloped Yong-Ho's entire body. It began to restructure his body.

It was safe to say that he was obtaining a new body. His body was developing as mana circulated within him and the passages that's been blocked before were now open.

His body became stronger. His bones became stronger as they contained more mana and his physical skills increased.

Yong-Ho didn't forget about his wish. He grew a bit taller. His body looked a lot more appealing.

And lastly.

Someone was cheering for Yong-Ho's development.

Aamon, the Red Lotus Demon Lance, had been waiting for this moment.

The moment where he won't have to suppress his powers. The moment where he'll be able to use his powers.

Of course, Yong-Ho was still lacking. He still had a long way to go.

But it felt like he could take a step forward. He could use his powers a little more freely.

Fire appeared on Yong-Ho's wrist, which was still enveloped in the green light. The red fire transformed into a lance. Aamon wanted to show his owner a part of his true form.

Fire and fire.

The green and red fire clashed against each other. They burned together and created a giant light. It disappeared with the wind.

Yong-Ho took a deep breath. It was the first breath he took after his body transformed.

His senses became more sensitive. Even though his eyes were closed, it felt like he could feel everyone's presence really well.

The transformation only took ten seconds.

But it was safe to say that the time on the battlefield stopped during that time.

The insect-type monsters realized that Agares had died. Some of them became weak and others started moving more violently.

The spirits that weren't directly connected to Agares saw the enormous fire. They saw the lifeless Agares and realized that his shell was the only thing that was left.

Agares was dead. He lost and the owner of the House of Mammon - the demon king of fire consumed his spirit.

Yong-Ho opened his eyes.

Instead of looking at Agares's corpse, he looked elsewhere. He looked at Salami, who landed on the ground and looked slightly scared.

"You're exhausted."

Salami was the spirit that worked the hardest out of all the spirits that belonged to the House of Mammon.

Salami calmed down when Yong-Ho spoke and tried to smile with its eyes.

Yong-Ho petted Salami's nose and spoke.

"Hang in there."

Salami was confused and blinked, but Yong-Ho didn't stop smiling.

The fight wasn't over.

Even though Agares was dead, his troops were still standing. Even though they were on the brink of collapsing, there were still over a hundred spirits.

Salami's wings were at its limit. Yong-Ho knew that too. That's why he said that earlier. With his new body, he gathered his mana and activated the Power of Evolution. Green flames rose up from his eyes and he saw a box of light.

[Salamander - Assault Type Development]

The green light that appeared on the tip of Yong-Ho's finger enveloped Salami's body.

Salami roared. The wings grew bigger and stronger and its body transformed into a more aggressive one.

Salami's front feet and shoulders became bigger. His claws became sharper and scales appeared on his body, similar to a dragon's. Thorns grew on Salami's slim waist and tail.

If Salami looked like an ordinary car before, now he looked like an armoured car.

After the evolution finished, hot air was released from Salami's mouth. Yong-Ho smiled and looked around. His eyes landed on Catalina and Ophelia.

Catalina covered her face with her hands as her tail and ears flapped. The gap between her fingers was pretty big, so he was able to see her blue eyes filled with excitement and her red cheeks.

Ophelia on the other hand had a smirk on her face. She signaled Yong-Ho with her eyes.

"Impressive."

Yong-Ho looked down, wondering what the two ladies were looking at and when he realized, he laughed awkwardly and put his hands down. While his body was transforming, the fire burned everything, so he was naked.

'I was wondering why it was chilly.'

Yong-Ho used his mana. After activating a dark green light, he used it to cover the lower part of his body and then got on Salami's back.

"Shall we finish this?"

Yong-Ho spoke. Catalina and Ophelia both answered in their own ways.

Salami spread its wings. After kicking off the ground and flapping its wing, a strong wind covered the ground.

'My young owner.'

He heard Aamon's voice. Yong-Ho swung his right arm as if that was his reply to Aamon's calling. Just like his body, he wielded the lance's new form.

The spirits that witnessed Agares's death were running away.

The insect-type monsters were violently jumping around as if this was their last attempt at bringing Yong-Ho down.

"Skulllll!"

He saw Skull, who was swinging his war hammer around. Yong-Ho didn't wait any longer. Salami was circling around in the air and he gave his command. Salami's fiery wings made the sky cloudy.

The fiery lance that divided the battleground.

He finished the battle, just like he had stated earlier.

***

The fight with Agares was now completely over, three hours after it had started.

The insect-type monsters didn't know how to quit or surrender. They had no choice but to kill each and every one of them.

Most of the spirits that were under Agares's control after he devoured their owners had ran away. The insects' violent movements had given them time to run.

When looking at just the results, the Free City had achieved victory. Even though Agares had twice as many troops, they had managed to defeat them and even brought down Agares himself. However, the Free City was damaged pretty badly as well.

Out of the three leaders of the Free City, Dargon had died. Despite the fact that Trolls had strong regeneration skills, Oros fainted right before the war ended because of his injury.

Out of the Free City's soldiers, the elite soldiers that Ophelia commanded to go with Skull experienced the most damage. During the most important moment, they became Yong-Ho's shield, so they fought the most enemies and because of that, they had the most injuries.

Out of the three leaders, Ophelia was in the best condition, so she took care of the soldiers. The worker's guild and the outlaws were against following Ophelia's orders, but since Yong-Ho was standing behind her, they kept their opinions to themselves.

They didn't even have the strength to protest. They needed some time in order to make a complaint.

Ophelia wasn't planning on standing by and watching them protest, but she wasn't going to pick on someone either. In the end, the Free City would belong to the House of Mammon. Oros probably realized that Ophelia was the House of Mammon's spirit before passing out based on the way she talked.

"I'll leave the Free City up to you."

Yong-Ho wore a suit that he obtained at the last minute and spoke while getting on the horse. Ophelia spoke worriedly while her tail moved weakly.

"Is it really okay for you to start moving? Skull and the others may be okay since they're Undead, but still…"

"We don't have a lot of time."

Yong-Ho and Ophelia were standing in front of the gate. They haven't even finished cleaning up the corpses, but Yong-Ho, Catalina, Skull and the other spirits were outside.

He didn't have enough time.

If Agares died, that meant that the Spirits of the Dungeons that were under Agares's control had died as well.

No matter how many soldiers Agares had, they probably noticed that he had died. The other owners in the east may have realized that there were changes going on in Agares's dungeon.

While consuming Agares's spirit, there were a few things that Yong-Ho realized.

Agares was an actual predator. The reason why he was able to gather a thousand soldiers was because he emptied the dungeons after he took them over.

It was impossible to take all the dungeons that were under his control. But he could at least take the two dungeons that were near the Free City.

Things had already been delayed. He had to move now.

"I'm fine."

Ophelia looked at Catalina worriedly, so she spoke to both Ophelia and Yong-Ho. Just like Yong-Ho, she was exhausted after continuously fighting, but that didn't mean she was going to fall behind. Catalina was Yong-Ho's personal guard.

Salami worked the hardest and despite letting a small cry, no one heard it.

Yong-Ho and Catalina got on Salami's back. Skull laughed while petting Nightmare's mane and the Skull Unit didn't look tired at all as they waited for everyone to start heading out.

"I'll be back."

Yong-Ho spoke, and Ophelia gave up in the end. She showed respect by seeing him off.

"'s daughter, Ophelia will gladly wait for your return, Master."

Salami flapped his wings and flew towards the east.

"Skullll!"

Nightmare started to gallop. The Skull Unit closely followed their leader.

Ophelia, who was now alone, brushed back her gold hair. She looked at the House of Mammon's spirits who were heading to the east.

She recalled the face her father made when he shouted that the House of Mammon was going to be revived.
