While ten percent didn’t seem like a lot, it was an overwhelming amount to beings who were strong, like Han-Yeol and this mechanical creature.

[Huh, he becfaster!]

[Damn it! What the hell!]

[Huh?]

[W-What?]

[S-Steam isn’t coming out!]

[What!?]

The mechanical creature was a lifeform, but before that, it was fundamentally a machine. It had been well maintained, but there was no way a robot kept in a confined space for seventy million years would not have any problems, especially if they were pushed to the point of overload in a short period of time.

[Repair!]

As one soul used a skill, smaller robots appeared in between the giant robot’s parts and started to hastily repair the problem.

[How long will it take?]

[Five minutes!]

[Damn it!]

As an engineer, they knew how difficult it was to figure out what was wrong with a machine in a split second and fix it in five minutes. However, the problem was that twas a very relative concept. When engaged in part-twork, studying, or tasks one dislikes, an hour could feel like an eternity. However, when doing something enjoyable, like playing games, twould pass by too quickly.

[Han-Yeol-nim!]

The steam attacks suddenly stopped.

The relentless steam attacks had suddenly stopped? This meant that something was wrong, or it was tto reload. If so, then this was his chance.

[Yes, Han-Yeol-nim!]

“Han-Yeol-nim!”

“Oh, Stewart. Is it ready now?”

“Yes.”

Finally, Stewart’s preparation for the big spell had been completed. Everything that Han-Yeol had prepared to deal with the mechanical creature was ready.

“Okay, Stewart. Go for it!”

“I will. Rise, dark spirits, for I, Stewart, absolute lord of the demon world, command you to offer their souls toand devour the souls of my enemies… Condemn those who stand in my way through pain. Soul Buster!”

Originally, this wasn’t Stewart’s fighting style, but as one of the absolute lords in the demon world, he had been nerfed so many times since he crossed over to the second dimension that his absolute power had been sealed.

Because of this, Stewart was acting like a summoner or a wizard, even though he wasn’t.

Nevertheless, Soul Buster, a powerful dark attack spell that Stewart had spent a long tcrafting, quickly launched forward, aiming toward the heart of the mechanical creature.

[That guy!]

[He noticed our weakness!]

The souls inside the mechanical creature were stunned to see the Soul Buster skill targeting them. At first glance, it looked like they had three lives because they were three machines merged together, but that wasn’t the case. In fact, the three mechanical bodies were just a puppet, and the actual lives of the four souls were hidden in an engine in the right heart.

Destroying this engine, which was also known as the mana engine, would lead to the death of all four souls. However, this had been specially processed to be hidden from even the most skilled detection, so they didn’t have to worry about getting caught.

But Stewart had seen right through it.

“I’ve lived for ages. Do you think this is the first tI’ve seen scum like you?”

[Ugh, stop them!]

[Damn it. Rampart of Light!]

This was a secret skill that could only be used once per day, and it also consumed a huge amount of divine power. The after effects would last for at least three days.

But now wasn’t the tto worry about the after effects, as they were about to lose their lives to the Soul Buster if it hit them in the heart.

[Agh!]

The Soul Buster skill crashed into the Rampart of Light, and the repulsive force was transmitted to the mechanical creature’s soul.

[Phew, we blocked it.]

However, since this was the highest level defense skill that could be used with divine power, it only transmitted the repulsive force and succeeded in blocking Soul Buster.

[We’re safe.]

[Khaha, now kill that devil…]

[What?]

The mechanical creature felt something wrap around its body.

[Kaaagh!]

They could feel that their body had been immobilized.

While they were caught off guard by the relief of successfully blocking the attack against their weakness, Han-Yeol swiftly got behind them and utilized the Restrain skill to immobilize them. The Restrain skill could be broken if there was a significant difference in strength, and normally, the mechanical creature would’ve been able to break free.

[Hey, con, break free!]

[U-Umm, it’s not budging!]

But the problem was that the mechanical creature had just used the Rampart of Light, so it was feeling the after effects from the massive usage of divine power.

Because it was a strong robot, it could stagger a bit, but it couldn’t move.

The corners of Han-Yeol’s lips rose.

“You’re done for, stupid robot.”

[Combination skill has been created—Destruction Blast (C)]

Han-Yeol was still using Blood Strengthening, and he maximized the mana in his body and concentrated it into the tip of his sword. This attack required him to stab something, so he had to end everything with just one strike.

[N-No!]

Binding and stabbing had been one of Han-Yeol’s favorite combat methods ever since he was a lower level.

The four souls inside the mechanical creature were stunned by Han-Yeol’s attack, which was aimed precisely at the mana engine.

They tried to move in any way they could, but the mechanical body refused to listen.

[Aghhhh!]

They screamed and tried their best to escape.

But in the end, Han-Yeol’s combination skill, Destructive Blast, pierced the mechanical creature’s mana engine.

This skill wasn’t simply Han-Yeol’s sword piercing the creature’s heart.

The moment he thrust his sword into the creature’s right chest, a huge explosion erupted from the other side.

The robots had the ability to detach themselves in case their lives were in danger, but the problem was that Han-Yeol had bound them, so they couldn’t use that ability.

This was thanks to the Restrain skill that had the ability to bound everything in an instant. However, the Restrain skill wasn’t important right now.

The skill’s description popped up, but he didn’t have tto read it because he had to prioritize attacking first. So, he didn’t know exactly what the effect of the skill was.

But he couldn’t help but be in awe of the effects.

It seemed to be a combination of Explosion and Vibration Booster, creating a massive explosion in reverse.

Explosion was a skill that caused the cut area to explode. Therefore, if the caster remained in the vicinity, they would be caught in the blast, necessitating a swift escape after executing the cut.

[I think so too.]

Karvis was rarely impressed by skills, but even she was amazed by the effectiveness of the Destructive Blast. The impressive aspect wasn't just its destructive power—it was the fact that it masked the inefficiency of Explosion to a greater extent.

Han-Yeol was still clinging to the mechanical creature, whose power had been cut out due to the Destructive Blast.

The creature was now completely turned off and motionless, and it started to slowly collapse, and it did not crash loudly.

“It’s falling!”

Han-Yeol was happily on top of the collapsing creature, riding it as if he was on a ride in an amusement park.

He landed with style like a scene from a movie and looked at Stewart with an expression as if to say ‘How do I look?’

“You don’t look cool at all.”

“Why not!”

Han-Yeol looked very disappointed.

“The character in that movie was using his skills to the best of his ability, but you’re just doing it for show, which isn’t needed.”

“It’s to look cool, duh!”

“It’s not cool. Not. At. All.”

“Ughhh! Damn Stewart!”

These two were always in a quarrel.

After the mechanical creature collapsed, the crew finally emerged from the passageway from their hiding spot.

“Eww, this is the monster?”

“What a sight, but since Han-Yeol-nim defeated it, it must mean that he’s stronger, right?”

“Just how much of a monster is Hunter Han-Yeol?”

The crew shuddered at Han-Yeol’s strength.

With the mechanical creature defeated and gone, the temple was now safe.

Han-Yeol personally went around and checked the area, still under the influence of the mana distortion effect, but there were no other monsters besides the mechanical creature. This allowed the others to relax and take a look at the body of the fallen mechanical creature.

“Hmm, do you think Yoo-Bi would like this if we disassembled it and brought it to her?”

“I’m sure she’d love it since she's crazy about mechanical devices.”

“Hahaha, crazy about mechanical devices…”

Sometimes, Stewart would be a little harsh, especially when it cto picking on other humans’ characteristics.

He would call Yoo-Bi a crazy woman obsessed with mechanical devices.

Of course, he didn’t call her that all the time. It was only when he was in a bad mood, which meant that Stewart was in a pretty bad mood right now.

In fact, he felt worse and worse the more he fought here in the ruins. He was stressed by the fact that he couldn’t fight as well as he wanted as the monsters were getting stronger, and his absolute power had been sealed.

Han-Yeol had seen enough of Stewart to know that it was better than to mess with him when he was in a bad mood, so he didn’t say much and immediately summoned more Lava Golems.

“You guys, start disassembling these stupid robots and stack them in my subspace storage!”

“Ah, wait, I have to take a picture of the whole thing first!”

Han-Yeol quickly took out his phone from the subspace storage and snapped a picture of the mechanical creature, which was relatively intact, even though its heart had been destroyed.
