The Military Chef of a Ruined World - Chapter 362



Only Noblemtl

Episode 362: The Demon Sword.

“No way… … !”

When the dagger stuck in his chest was taken away.

The old man collapsed, unconscious from the shock.

and…….

It was the same for me.

“Keuhk… … !”

I can barely reach Kangsan’s heart with my hand.

However, I succeeded in pulling out the dagger that was inside it.

In the process, I ended up pushing myself too hard.

‘I’m dying… … ‘

According to Yoonseong.

Kangsan said that he was somehow protecting his chest area.

To break through that defense.

That the author needs to do something that he could never have imagined.

That’s what I judged… … .

“Kuhuhu… … That… … It was cut so nicely.”

He mutters, looking at my waist.

More than 80% of the waist was cut off.

It was so badly torn that it seemed as if it would split in two if you grabbed either the upper or lower body and shook it roughly.

No matter how strong the life force of the awakened being is.

I can’t live like this.

Swish… … .

‘Recovery is also delayed.’

Even the waistband from which the vampires’ blood had been cut off was forcibly reattached.

If you’re a full vampire, you might not know, but I’m only half of one.

Before I finish recovering, I will lose my life.

‘This is… …my last.’

like that.

I was about to close my eyes in pain.

At that very moment.

[The skill’s effect is activated!]

“uh……?”

Just as my eyes were about to close.

There was an alien force taking hold of my mind.

[Skill in effect – Eternal Pain]

[Resist death with the effect of ‘Death Resistance’!]

After being forcibly ripped from Kangsan’s chest.

The red blade with a sinister appearance that I was holding in my hand.

[Blade of Sacrifice, Victimia]

“This is… … ?”

The magical power flowing from there.

I was holding back my death.

* * *

[1. The Blade of Sacrifice is a weapon that is judged as a single living creature, and can be the target of all types of abilities, including buffs and debuffs. However, the ability that can be applied is limited to one.]

[2. The wearer can share only the desired part of the various effects applied to the blade.]

Only then.

I could see what was written on the blade.

‘You can apply one skill, and you can remove all the negative effects of the applied skill and bring in only the desired part.’

in other words.

‘Crazy scam.’

It’s an absurd ability.

I wondered if such a fraudulent item could exist.

‘Isn’t that what I should say?’

When I think about the perks I got as rewards for my achievements.

I did think that might be the case.

“… … If you think about it, it’s actually an item that’s difficult to use properly in the first place.”

It looks good if you only bring the good parts of the applied skill.

Ultimately, there was only one ability that could be applied to this sword.

And the same goes for most skills.

‘If it’s a buff, it’s a buff, and if it’s a debuff, it’s a debuff.’

There are some bad parts to the buff.

There were fewer cases than expected where there were good parts while debuffing.

but…….

‘Those curses are different.’

The curse series skills had both advantages and disadvantages.

The curse that Han Yi-seo used on me was the same.

The moment the curse was blocked, there was a penalty where Han Yi-seo became the target of the curse.

‘This is an item specialized for cursed sorcerers.’

The president of the association uses the effects of this item.

By taking only the strengths of the curses he possessed and discarding the weaknesses.

That power has been growing.

The most representative one among them is.

[Curse – Eternal Torment]

this.

“……indeed.”

It’s a curse he tried to use on me too.

The power to inflict great pain while also making it impossible to die or faint while in that pain.

It was a curse purely for torture.

The downside is that you really can’t die.

If the subject of torture escapes, he or she will face an immortal enemy.

and.

Kangsan uses this skill.

[Application – Death Resistance]

[Not applicable – Increased pain]

Just that you won’t die.

He has been using it against himself.

‘The function to recover the body is not written down.’

If this explanation is followed, you won’t die.

It wasn’t that it definitely wouldn’t disappear.

If your throat is cut off and your whole body is crushed,

Even if you don’t die in that state, you’ll end up in a state that’s no different from being dead.

But the president of the association recovered no matter how many times he was cut.

That ice-like thing was taking hold, replacing the missing part… … .

‘Is that a power you gained from making a contract with monsters?’

Something like frost rippled and connected the wounded area.

There was a high probability that it was a supernatural ability given by the monsters inside that gate.

… … By the way.

The effects applied to this sword are really.

If it had the power to prevent death.

“Ugh… … .”

I tried to get up somehow.

After realizing that my body was still torn in half and tattered.

“… … Vimanar!”

“yes!”

“Move my body.”

He called upon the [droplets of the legion] and moved his body.

“where…….”

“excuse me.”

Where I pointed with my hand.

There.

[Awakened One: Ha Yoon-seong]

“Over there.”

With a huge amount of blood being vomited out.

There was a man with his head down without moving.

* * *

“Keuk… … .”

The waist that had been cut by the sword of Kangsan was still swaying.

At least there is some connection with the vampire’s blood.

“Mr. Yoonseong.”

I approached Ha Yoon-seong, supported by the water droplets.

“… … .”

No answer to my call

Yunseong is lying in the snow with his eyes open, blankly.

‘If I had fought just a little longer, I would have lost, just like the old man said.’

The only thing that allowed me to win was.

Interest is watching the old man fight.

Because I had figured out the weakness he was guarding.

‘I knew I was cursed, but… … .’

Seeing that the curse keeps them from revealing their secrets.

I also thought that I was a selfish person.

But… …it wasn’t.

It’s not that I keep my mouth shut for fear of being cursed.

‘I’ve been waiting for this.’

Since I learned that if I opened my mouth I would die.

I just waited for the most effective moment to open my mouth.

If you let it be known that the president of the association is a traitor.

That wouldn’t be so bad.

Those who remained may have discovered the danger of the source of that cold air and advanced.

But, in the end.

‘We would have been annihilated by the enemies.’

Not only was the immortality shown by the president unknown, but the identities of the enemies were also unknown.

In that situation, even if we only reveal the association president’s betrayal.

It probably didn’t mean much.

That’s why I endured it.

And when the battle began.

I went straight to see the association president.

A mouth that can only open once.

About the most important information you can spit out with that mouth… … .

-The reason I came here was… …to be confident.

About the weaknesses of that association president.

To be confident.

If he had kept his mouth shut there out of fear of his own death.

As soon as the buff applied to the clones ends.

I would have just lost.

My first impression of this man named Yoonseong wasn’t very good.

I can’t say that he is a very capable person, even in empty words.

‘How could I… … open my mouth knowing I would die?’

The courage to sacrifice one’s life like that at the last moment…

It was something I didn’t have.

In that heart was embedded a cursed blade that even I had difficulty resolving.

Those blades would have pierced his heart.

Originally, it would not have been possible to survive.

‘thank god.’

okay.

If it was Yoonseong before that.

I would never have survived though.

[Food ingredient identification (reinforcement)]

[Freshness: Top (Temporary)]

Those cursed blades may have wounded his heart.

It didn’t penetrate completely.

The reason was simple.

[Food management (deterioration)]

[These are ingredients placed under the chef’s care!]

[A state in which the deterioration of the condition due to external factors is slowed.]

A curse that eventually settles on your weak points.

That absolute power could never be strong.

In a state where the ability to prevent damage to the state overlapped, it would not have been possible to pierce the heart in one go.

Phew… … Phew… … .

He was infinitely closer to death.

Still, I was able to breathe.

“In front of me… … come down.”

“Your Majesty.”

Let me command.

[Waterdrops] frowned at my face and said.

“I understand what you’re trying to do, but… … .”

“That ability must be used by the Lord… … .”

“This is enough for me.”

actually.

It was a wound that could have resulted in death just a moment ago.

Swish… … .

The blood of the night’s nobles flowing out of his body.

I was slowly putting my torn waist back together.

“At this rate… … I won’t die.”

“still…….”

“Okay, put it down.”

I was a helpless human being who was afraid of death.

at the same time.

I also hate seeing someone else die… … .

‘I think about it, there really are too many things I want compared to my abilities.’

He’s such a selfish guy.

“……yes.”

I sat down in front of him as he fell.

Swish.

“Excuse me, sir.”

[Blade of Sacrifice, Victimia]

“This is precious. That’s why.”

In that hand.

He handed me a dagger.

“You have to use it for a short while and then return it.”

This person may not be a perfect human being.

He wasn’t the kind of person who would die like this.

If it were original.

A human who should have died immediately at the moment his heart was wounded.

With the Awakener’s strong vitality and the power of ingredient management.

The death was delayed just a little bit.

[Effect in effect]

[Eternal suffering]

now.

That grace period has been extended a little further.

“… … Cool.”

[Food management (deterioration)]

[The ingredients under the chef’s care are maintained in a state that the chef considers to be of the highest quality.]

The human body under my control.

Towards a higher level, healing began to occur slowly.

* * *

I guess I should say it’s fortunate.

It didn’t take long for Yunseong’s condition to recover.

‘… … I actually thought it would take longer for me to recover.’

It may be because of the effect of [Food Material Management (Deterioration)].

I didn’t know that Yoonseong’s recovery would be faster than mine.

This is probably it.

‘Is my recovery slowing down?’

Rather than saying that Yoonseong’s recovery speed is ridiculously fast.

I guess my recovery has slowed down.

There were some elements that could be guessed.

‘Aftereffects… … .’

I have been abusing my power beyond my ability, ignoring the message that there is a penalty.

It must be the result of the side effects of that power accumulating in my body.

‘… … I don’t have time to worry about this right now.’

It’s definitely something I’ll have to think about later though.

It’s meaningless to think about it right now.

After I confirmed that Yoonseong’s body condition had healed to some extent.

Swish… … .

Retrieve the [Victoria] that you lent him.

He put the body into the [Shadow Curtain].

“Ugh… … .”

And then.

I sat down in the corner, waiting for my severed back to fully heal.

And at the same time.

I look at the ominous blade in my hand.

‘[Eternal suffering].’

and.

After reading that ability again.

“……ah.”

I was so busy trying to save Yoonseong that I didn’t notice.

I was able to realize one thing.

“indeed.”

After the day of destruction.

The thing I feared and avoided the most.

death.

If we utilize the power of this blade as it is.

I probably.

“It is immortal.”

From that death.

That it could be quite far away.

* * *

‘… …immortality.’

After the day of destruction.

The power I’ve been longing for.

Perhaps with my regenerative powers I wouldn’t be able to fight as ridiculous a battle as that old man.

It may be possible to exert similar powers.

With that in mind.

When I looked at the dagger with excited eyes.

[Introduction to Soul Cooking]

‘……uh?’

It would be normal if there was no soul.

A dagger that is nothing more than an inorganic weapon.

Contained in it.

[Soul of the victim]

[The souls of those who were involved in the manufacturing process of the Blade of Sacrificial Victimia.]

soul…….

no.

I could see the souls.

-Tiring.

[The hidden trait of the Blade of Sacrifice, Victimia, has been confirmed!]

[Characteristic – Sacrificial Offering]

[A ceremonial blade created to perform a special ritual by sacrificing as many souls as possible.]

[Since the first sacrificed soul, Victimia has gone through many users, increasing the number of sacrifices.]

[All the burden of the powers used by the user on Victimia is taken over by the souls of the victims.]

[When the negative emotions such as pain, sorrow, resentment, and sadness that the souls of the victims feel toward their master reach a certain level, the negative emotions of the sacrificed souls will consume the master of the blade.]

[The eaten master is transformed into the soul of another victim.]

[Sacrificed Soul – 3071]

[Current accumulated negative value = 98.7/100]

[If the negative value reaches 100, it devours the owner.]

“… … .”

And then I noticed.

The name is like that too.

The appearance is also like that.

I should have noticed it sooner.

This dagger is probably.

-Apaapapa …

Not to be used lightly.

It is said to belong to the absurd magic sword.
