Rebirth of the Strongest Dungeon Master

"Fire!"

The battle in the castle courtyard was getting crazier. The number of deaths from both sides increased dramatically. Corpses, whether human or monster, were trampled like trash.

Screams echoed without pause. Smoke billowed in the sky like clouds.

"Everyone! Follow me!"

A handsome man in golden armor called out amidst the chaos of battle. Dozens of men in similar armor followed him. Among them, there was a black short-haired woman with blood splattered on her armor.

"Ling Tian, we must hold the gate as soon as possible!" the woman shouted.

"I know!"

They broke through the crowd of monsters. Ling Tian turned into a human torch and burned away any monsters that got in his way. Wang Mei also helped clear the way for the golden-armored troops to pass. She jumped ten meters, then finished off the monsters.

Slash! Slash! Slash!

Splat!

Dozens of monsters turned into lumps of meat.

"Everyone, ready on defense!"

They arrived at the gate of the castle wall. From outside, countless monsters flocked towards them. Seeing their numbers, the Golden Dragon hunters gulped.

Goblins, gnolls, trolls, lycan, and various others; all sorts of monsters with strange shapes were running around as if they were looking for prey.

"Don't be afraid! We'll be able to face them! We'll win!" exclaimed Ling Tian mightily.

Within seconds, the clash happened.

"Graaarwwr!"

Werelion roared to start their clash. Swords swung. Flesh was torn. Blood spilled onto the ground. Casters in golden armor chanted spells; the soil rolled like waves; ice flew through the air; and flames spurted like the breath of a dragon.

The Golden Dragon troops led by Ling Tian withstood the onslaught of the monsters. Wang Mei confidently jumped onto them.

Slash! Slash! Slash!

Her dual blades danced and uprooted thousands of monster lives, slaughtering them like mowing grass.

"Miss Wang! We'll help!"

From the top of the castle wall, the hunters of Nine Sky launched an attack.

Swooosh! Swoooosh! Swooooosh!

Splat!

"Kuaaak!"

Thousands of arrows wrapped in lightning, ice, and fire; rained down on the monsters. They collapsed in seconds. The hunters of Golden Dragon were on fire watching the scene. Their confidence grew.

Seeing the situation gain the upper hand, Wang Mei smiled while killing the monsters.

From the beginning, she planned to use the enemies's castle as a defense. As long as there was only one entrance, the monsters would only move at one point. That way, it would be easy for the hunters to eliminate the monsters that came charging in. Even if there were thousands of them.

"We can survive! Keep fighting!" Wang Mei exclaimed passionately.

The woman was confident that she could survive this battle as long as she could withstand the waves of monsters from outside the castle. However, reality was always different from expectations.

In the midst of their superiority, something suddenly fell from the sky. The ground shook. Everyone's attention was drawn to the object, but black dust covered the scene.

"What was that?"

"Comet?"

Various questions popped into their heads. Not long after, the dust gone and everything became clear.

Everyone opened their eyes wide. Wang Mei and Ling Tian were no exception. They stuttered and their lips trembled.

A giant creature appeared amidst thousands of monsters. That thing was Lawrence. What scared them was not his appearance, but what the creature was holding.

Lawrance seemed to be grinning widely. He threw it.

"You think you can win? Don't be stupid..."

It was a human body split into two.

"No... way..." Ling Tian actually looked pale.

While Wang Mei was frozen. Both of her hands holding the sword trembled. "Cheng Ho..."

Isaac stood up straight. His face looked relaxed. No wound, no blood. He was completely as he was before. Mistress Xenovia who saw his condition was completely astonished.

"You sly fox...!" A soft tone rang out from her words, but the hatred was thick from. The female demon held her severed arm which continued to ooze blood. "All this time you were pretending and waiting for an opportunity, you coward."

"Well, I have hundreds of potions and dozens of elixr in my inventory," Isaac replied in a casual tone.

What Earl Xenovia said was true.

However, he pretended to be dead not just to wait for an opportunity. In fact, Isaac was confident enough to face the Earl alone. His real goal was, he wanted Guo Chen to awaken his innate skill.

That human had an extraordinary skill that was fairly rare and desired by demons. Even this skill would be fought over at the auction later. The name of the skill was "Blood of Asura."

A skill that allows the user to increase physical strength and mana capacity by 200%. The user would continue to experience an increase in strength as time goes by, but would shrink when bleeding too much.

That was the reason why Guo Chen's strength was declining. He continued to receive relentless attacks from Earl Xenovia. If they at the same level, perhaps the outcome of the battle would had been different.

Isaac took advantage of the trauma the young man had. Humans would had a breakthrough when they were at rock bottom. When they has nothing left, they would unleashed all their hidden potential.

And his plan to utilize that was a great success. Guo Chen managed to bring out an innate skill.

Crackle! Crackle!

Naturally, Earl Xenovia raised his hand into the air and crystal shards shot out. Isaac just swung Jade Black, the sharp ices that rushed at him were knocked away like nothing.

A smirk appeared on his face. "If I were you, I would take my staff first instead of attacking my opponent."

Realizing the faux pas she had committed due to being consumed by emotions, Earl Xenovia quickly reached a hand into the air, trying to retrieve her weapon lying in the snow. However, a sharp compressed wind came.

Swooosh!

"Arggg!"

Bam!

Snow scattered through the air. The Mistress managed to dodge the killing blow, but did not completely escape. Her shoulder was scratched 30 cm.

"Sneaky fox!!!" cursed Xenovia. Her lips pursed.

Isaac just chuckled. "Never trust what your opponent says. Lesson two."

The long-haired demoness quickly picked up her staff with telekinesis. When it landed in her hand, her eyes glowed blue, then a blizzard for the second time occurred. The wound on her arm also froze.

The fierce wind, the ice pellets, the cold temperature; all attacked Isaac simultaneously.

Nevertheless, the white-haired man did not seem worried.

"You forget there's not just one enemy," he said.

Without Earl Xenovia realizing it, a hand-shaped red aura clawed at her. Her waist was torn. Pain spread throughout her body. Blood spurted out and instantly froze in the air.

Guo Chen had already broken free from the ice trap. That young man did not give the earl time to breathe. He unleashed a thicker red aura and launched a multiple attack.

Sash! Sash! Sash!

Dozens of hand-shaped red auras came at the demoness. She could not dodge them, only able to bring out a dozens wall of ice to withstand the attacks. However, the ices that should be solid as coral shattered like glass.

"Arrrgggg-!"

Earl Xenovia was unprepared for Guo Chen. With only one hand, she could not use telekinesis because she had to hold Moses's Staff. Alas, she could only defend.

Seeing a great opportunity to kill the Earl, Isaac took the opportunity. He gathered mana on Jade Black. Then swung the greatsword.

Swooooosh!

An invisible wind blade shot out at high speed, cutting through wind, snow, shards, and anything in its path.

Including the ice walls.

Creak! Creak! Creack!

Earl Xenovia tried to resist the attack with all her remaining mana, unfortunately she was too late, as a result her body was blown away.

Thud!

The demoness was pinned against the wall, thorns piercing her body. Her remaining hand was crushed along with her left leg. Moses's Staff laid in a pile of snow. She was completely immobilized.

Earl Xenovia had lost.

Guo Chen stood in front of the woman with a hateful gaze. His hands were shaking. He was trying to restrain himself from killing her.

Isaac walked over to the Earl who was covered in blood on the wall.

"You win... Lord Isaac..." said the dying demoness. Her face was pale, covered in blood, and her eyes looked desperate. The arrogance had vanished from her. "What... are you waiting for? Kill me..."

Isaac smiled. Not because of seeing Earl Xenovia's terrible condition, but her last words. The Demon Mitress chose to be killed in order to maintain her pride. Even though he intended to forgive her.

"I'm giving you a second chance. Serve me, I will let you live," he said.

Earl Xenovia chuckled. "There is nothing left of me... other than my pride and my word. I already gave my oath to Lord Barbatos. Don't expect me to be your dog..." She spat at Isaac, but her blood and saliva fell into the snow.

Isaac took a deep breath. He understood the earl's decision. "I respect your decision. You are a true noble." He glanced at Guo Chen. "End her suffering..."

Hearing Isaac's order, the female demon opened her eyes wide. Her pale face suddenly seemed to stiffen.

"Lord Isaac! What are you saying!? You want that dog to kill me? Kill me with your own hands! Kill me! Lord Isaac!" Earl Xenovia struggled while screaming with all the strength he had left. Meanwhile, the demon who decided his fate did not seem to budge in the slightest.

His attention was glued on Guo Chen.

The man carried out the order. He quickly strangled the dying demon. Earl Xenovia uttered an curses, but none of it came out. Her breath and speech were stuck in her neck.

"Keeeeuggg... L...l-ord... Is... aacc..."

The grip on her neck grew stronger. Breath began to falter. Saliva gathered in the mouth. Her eyes began to get wet. Her head began to feel dizzy. Slowly everything became a blur. Until finally, everything she saw went dark.

Earl Xenovia was dead.

Ding!

[The Dungeon Master has been killed outside of PvP!]

[Nearby demon detected!]

[Isaac Constantine]

[Do you want to receive the dungeon?]

[Yes/No]

A notification appeared. Since this battle was not PvP, if the dungeon master was killed, the system would detected the demons inside the dungeon and would gave them options.

Bam.

Guo Chen fainted. The man returned to the way he was before. His hair turned black and his body back to normal.

"Hm... not bad, you can survive this far. I thought you were going to die."

Just as Isaac was about to press the option, he felt someone's presence. A short fat man with an almost pig-like face walked cautiously towards the demon.

The fat man trembled and bowed his head when in Isaac's presence. Inferior, there was no confidence in him at all.

"Lord... my name is Piggy. I'm the... dungeon manager. I... I am at your service," he stammered.

Seeing Piggy's behavior, Isaac wondered how Earl Xenocia treated her assistant.

Isaac sighed.

"You don't have to do that. You won't be my assistant. This dungeon will be in ruins."

Instantly, both of Piggy's eyeballs opened wide. He was truly surprised that Isaac would not claim the dungeon.
