I Alone Resurrect Chapter 213
Dera Asas (3)
A collapsed city.
The magical energy was so thick that it was visible everywhere.
“This guy is tough.”
Kang Hyeon scratched his head while looking at the enormous Bone Dragon.
“Kyaaaaa!”
A thunderous roar burst out as if to assert its presence.
The Bone Dragon’s monstrous cry echoed piercingly throughout Tokyo.
“I’ve got a loud voice too! You bastard!”
Kang Hyeon used his Roar of the Enraged Lion and ran while gripping Filthian’s hammer.
The enormous Bone Dragon.
Behind it, an endless legion.
Kang Hyeon running towards them looked incredibly small and insignificant.
“First, one strike!”
Kang Hyeon poured his magical power into Filthian’s hammer.
Kang Hyeon’s surging magical energy caused the hammer to blaze brightly, as if engulfed in blue flames.
“Ugh!”
Kang Hyeon exhaled a short breath.
Simultaneously, the hammer struck the Bone Dragon’s leg.
-Kwaaang!
An enormous impact that slightly shook the Bone Dragon’s massive body.
Its thick bones cracked and fractured.
However, the broken bones quickly restored themselves as if nothing had happened.
Kang Hyeon’s full-powered attack had produced no significant results.
But Kang Hyeon did not lose heart.
“I didn’t expect to take it down with a single blow anyway!”
Kang Hyeon continued swinging the hammer without stopping.
Though it seemed like random strikes, each attack was filled with his utmost effort.
The Bone Dragon seemed displeased with Kang Hyeon and let out a monstrous cry.
“Kraaaah!”
Its massive front leg flew towards Kang Hyeon.
‘Blocking is impossible. I must dodge!’
Even Kang Hyeon couldn’t block an attack from a creature as large as a building.
Kang Hyeon tried to quickly pull his body back.
But at that moment, an undead wolf that had rushed in grabbed Kang Hyeon.
“You damn dog!”
It was now too late to escape.
Kang Hyeon braced for the impact.
-Peoook!
An incredible shock that felt like his entire body would burst.
Despite bracing himself, it felt like every bone in his body was shattering.
The wolf that had been attacked with him was already scattered into pieces.
“Kuleuk!”
Kang Hyeon, who had flown at an incredible speed and crashed into a building, vomited a handful of blood.
‘If I take another hit like that, I’m done for.’
Fortunately, his monster-like recovery quickly allowed him to move again.
However, this recovery had drained a massive amount of magical power.
It was essentially no different from returning from death, so it was only natural.
Kang Hyeon hurriedly poured a magical power potion into his mouth.
“Give me a moment to rest!”
Undead creatures rushed at him from all directions.
“Arrogant one. This will be your grave.”
“I must take your body and raise my rank.”
Each undead was incredibly powerful and impossible to ignore.
‘It’s hard to even handle that dragon, and now these small fry are joining in…’
It was uncertain whether he could defeat even the Bone Dragon alone.
With all these high-ranking undead joining the attack, it was difficult to regain his senses.
-Squeak!
A blade imbued with magical power sliced across Kang Hyeon’s body.
-Bang!
Simultaneously, a fireball from behind struck him.
A massive flame engulfed Kang Hyeon, using his flesh as kindling.
The zombies rushed in, regardless of the hot flames, eager to devour Kang Hyeon’s flesh.
“Damn it… Fine! Let’s see who wins!”
Kang Hyeon clenched his teeth.
There was no option to avoid attacks.
Every space was filled with enemies’ attacks.
He could only block.
If he couldn’t block, he would endure with his body.
Wounds beyond the limits of recovery began to accumulate on Kang Hyeon’s body.
“Arghhhh!”
Kang Hyeon let out a yell and swung Filthian’s hammer broadly.
The enemies caught in that attack were shattered and sent flying dozens of meters.
“Ugh, Ugh…”
Kang Hyeon, now covered in blood just after a few minutes, gasped for breath.
“Human. Your spirit is good, but your limits are clear.”
A figure that seemed to be of Kulsa rank approached Kang Hyeon.
“Now die. Your corpse will be used by Dera Asas to create an excellent immortal. Consider it an honor.”
“What nonsense…”
A powerful magical beam shot from the figure.
There was no space to dodge.
Kang Hyeon held out Filthian’s hammer, bracing for the impact.
“Huh?”
At that moment.
A shield suddenly generated in front of Kang Hyeon deflected the magical beam.
“Wha- What the…”
Simultaneously, a bullet fired from somewhere pierced Kulsa’s skull.
Kulsa collapsed helplessly, falling to his knees.
“Were you waiting?”
When he glanced over, Yoon Na-rae was standing there with a cheeky expression, smiling.
“Waiting, my ass. Didn’t I tell you to stay put until I came to support? Seriously, you never listen.”
“Still showing off while dying.”
Yoon Na-rae chuckled and approached Kang Hyeon.
The undead legion and the Bone Dragon surrounded Kang Hyeon and Yoon Na-rae in a circle.
“…”
Though she was pretending to be calm, it was obvious at a glance that Yoon Na-rae was extremely tense.
“Whew… I should have just let sister Seong-ah go alone.”
“Already regretting?”
“Of course I regret it! I should have just run away. Why did I come here and suffer like this! Ugh!”
Kang Hyeon smiled slyly at Yoon Na-rae’s complaint.
“Don’t die. If you die, I’ll follow you to the end of hell and torment you.”
“Please, guild leader. I can handle myself just fine.”
For a moment, a vein popped on Kang Hyeon’s forehead, but now was not the time to argue with her.
“We’ll settle this later.”
Kang Hyeon made a fierce smile and ran forward.

Dera Asas watched Kang Hyeon’s battle from a little distance away.
“He’s practically a berserker.”
For a moment, he wondered how he would compare to humans from the Harken continent.
First, looking at his physique alone, he far exceeded human limitations.
However, the technical aspects were quite disappointing.
‘If we were to compare physical powers, he’d be about on par with a kingdom’s knight commander.’
Perhaps he was approaching those called ‘superhumans’ that exist in one or two countries.
“But this isn’t the end… What exactly are you hiding, Kang Hyeon?”
A strong body alone could never defeat Gattu Asas.
To understand that secret, Dera Asas was extremely cautious.
Even now, if he had directly intervened, the situation might have been resolved more quickly.
But Dera Asas focused on creating and controlling the Bone Dragon.
By using this method, he would be safe even if Kang Hyeon was pushed to use his ultimate technique.
‘I find it funny.’
Having endured countless years, life had become boring.
He did have a desire to die at the hands of the best warrior in the best battlefield.
Paradoxically, he was afraid of true rest and eternal sleep.
Dera Asas was not yet ready to end his long life.
“Hmm…?”
Something caught Dera Asas’s senses.
“Were you waiting for these?”
They seemed to be those who came to help Kang Hyeon.
“I thought they were waiting for support. But are these all they have?”
The magical power felt considerable, but it was still within human limits.
No matter how many such beings increased, they would not change the battle situation.
‘Even if the number of hands scooping water in a vast sea increases… The sea does not disappear.’
The undead legion here was like a tsunami that would swallow everything.

Breaking, bursting, and cutting.
With each repetition of this sequence, enemies fell, but more enemies waited behind them.
“Just die already! These damn bastards!”
An hour had passed since the battle began.
A time that could be considered short or long.
During this time, the group had survived countless crises.
Yoon Na-rae and Shin Seong-ah had appeared confidently, but they were merely struggling to keep themselves alive.
At the moment when everyone was exhausted and cornered.
What they had been waiting for finally arrived.
“You’re disgustingly late.”
Kang Hyeon, who had felt the support team’s arrival, managed a weary smile.
There was no need to send a separate signal.
This was currently the most chaotic place in all of Tokyo.
The undead legion seemed to have sensed the changed situation and stepped back slightly.
-Thump! Thump!
Ability users began to drop from the sky.
Their entrance was quite dramatic.
‘So this is what they mean by successful experimental ability users.’
At first glance they looked human, but with subtly different appearances.
They resembled humans combined with animals, similar to beast-people from movies.
Suddenly, something dropped from the sky and stuck in front of Kang Hyeon.
-Kaang!
Bilgein’s long sword with a red blade.
Kang Hyeon smiled at the familiar weapon he hadn’t seen in a while.
“Welcome back.”
“Looks like you’re having a hard time.”
“Perhaps this might be the first and last moment when seeing your face brings me joy.”
Watching Choi Min-jun slowly descend from the sky, Kang Hyeon smiled slyly.
“The scale of the enemies is no joke.”
Looking at the undead legion filling his vision, the massive Bone Dragon, and Dera Asas emitting overwhelming magical power, Choi Min-jun frowned.
“Are you getting scared now that you’re here?”
“Why didn’t you tell me there was a dragon? If I had known, I would have prepared differently.”
“I just saw it myself, you bastard.”
Choi Min-jun looked around.
About 50 ability users had gathered around Kang Hyeon and Choi Min-jun.
Those who had followed him from the beginning.
All were elite, having undergone harsh training and human experiments.
‘This wasn’t supposed to be where we’d die…’
But there was no choice.
Once the battle had started, they had to see it through.
“This could be your first and last battle.”
The ability users nodded with heavy expressions at Choi Min-jun’s words.
“Either survive proudly or die honorably.”
A cruel and cold statement.
But for those who were prepared, it was enough.
“Let’s go.”

A world where dungeons and monsters appeared.
How would humanity survive?
Choi Min-jun, who had graduated from the tutorial to stage 8, had been constantly pondering since the early days of the dungeon crisis.
‘This is a trial for humanity. A harsh trial where one must constantly collide and become stronger to survive.’
But the world did not move as he had expected.
Ability users who wanted to grow comfortably like greenhouse flowers.
‘At this rate, we will definitely be destroyed.’
Choi Min-jun was certain.
In this state, they could never avoid destruction.
So he decided to become a necessary evil.
‘By becoming the villain… I’ll have to break this complacent awareness.’
To survive, humans paradoxically needed to kill humans.
Powerful ability users who could grow by breaking through harsh trials.
Only by increasing their numbers could humanity survive in this changed world.
To realize this belief, Choi Min-jun gathered like-minded individuals and became a terrorist.
-Cut the bullshit! You delusional maniac drunk on elitist thinking. Killing to survive? What the hell are you talking about!?
His plan was thoroughly destroyed when he met Kang Hyeon.
That day at the World Dungeon Conference when Kang Hyeon defeated him.
-This plan was wrong from the beginning.
Choi Min-jun realized his thoughts were incorrect.
Arbitrarily imposing trials to forcibly create as many strong individuals as possible.
It was an impossible plan.
-Not everyone can be a hero.
At the same time, he realized upon seeing Kang Hyeon.
-Those who will become heroes will shine on their own…
After that, Choi Min-jun withdrew all his plans.
And he devoted himself solely to improving his own abilities.
He made deals with the government, received dungeon access, and went hunting alone.
He fought constantly, and fought again.
Only to become stronger.
“I’ll show you.”
Now the moment has come to be evaluated for that effort.
Undead filling the entire field of vision.
Choi Min-jun slowly began to raise his magical power.
A red magical power rising from his body.
A threatening magical power that was visibly apparent suddenly flew at an incredible speed.
-Paga-ga-ga-gak!
The magical power was wielded sharply as if alive, slashing across the entire city.
The low-level undead could not withstand the attack, their limbs being severed and scattered.
“Whew…”
In just a few seconds, hundreds of undead corpses were lying in front of Choi Min-jun.
“You’re showing off some tricks.”
A group of undead approached Choi Min-jun.
One Kulsa-grade undead and various high-level undead following him.
In the blink of an eye, all sorts of magic flew, and sharp swords and teeth rushed to tear him apart.
“Tricks… Maybe that’s true.”
However, a red magical power harder than steel blocked all the attacks.
Simultaneously, the magical power transformed into a sharp spear and shot out at an incredible speed, piercing the heads of dozens of undead.
“But these tricks seem sufficient to deal with you lot.”
“You…”
Kulsa, who had blocked Choi Min-jun’s red magical power with a shield, gripped his staff tightly.
The shield, which looked like it would shatter at any moment, was saying that Choi Min-jun’s ability was not just a simple trick.
“Don’t be cocky!”
Kulsa slammed his staff on the ground.
Suddenly, the asphalt became soft and fluid, then abruptly transformed into a sharp spear flying towards Choi Min-jun.
Choi Min-jun flew through the sky at an incredible speed, avoiding all attacks.
“You’re showing off tricks.”
Kulsa, enraged by Choi Min-jun’s provocation, swung his staff.
“This is just the beginning!”
Choi Min-jun’s red magical power and Kulsa’s magic collided from all directions.
Attack. Dodge. Defense.
Everything happening simultaneously, exchanging dozens of attacks and defenses in each moment.
‘This won’t do.’
Choi Min-jun frowned.
He shouldn’t be dragging out the fight with just one opponent like this.
His magical power was also being rapidly consumed.
Although the consumption could be replenished with potions, it didn’t mean his victory.
Because the opponent visibly had much stronger magical power.
It was clear as day that the fight would turn into a prolonged battle.
‘If only I could do something about that shield…’
The fight was being prolonged by the shield that seemed about to break but then recovered.
He glanced sideways at the Bone dragon fighting with Kang Hyeon.
‘Unless I finish this opponent and help Kang Hyeon, there’s no chance of winning.’
He needed to pour more magical power.
To somehow break the shield.
This was a battle against time.
-Crackle!
Choi Min-jun’s red magical power tore through Kulsa’s shield and pushed forward.
“It’s useless!”
But when Kulsa emitted magical power and expanded the shield, the power was instantly repelled.
‘Again. More strongly!’
Choi Min-jun shot out his red magical power again.
Kulsa also expanded the shield again while trying to shoot magic at Choi Min-jun.
At that moment.
“This is…!”
A projectile flying from somewhere struck Kulsa’s shield.
-Chae-aeng!
The shield shattered like glass.
Taking that opportunity, the red magical power flew and penetrated Kulsa’s skull.
“Kek… Oh, Lord Agon… This cannot be…”
Kulsa’s magical power drained away, the light in his eyes gradually fading.
