The Final Boss Has Returned 105

105

Chapter 105

[Deu-ha, it means hi Drakan-nim~]

[Drakan-nim. Heug-oo here again today. Thank you for turning on the stream. Loyalty, loyalty, loyalty!]

[‘Special Grade Heug-oo’-nim has donated 100,000 KRW.]

The live broadcast started with ordinary greeting chats.

However, as soon as Eugene appeared, the chat in front of my eyes turned into a complete pandemonium.

[Eugene?]

[Hul, is that really Eugene?]

[Eugene?]

[Wow, it’s real lol. It’s really Eugene lol.]

[I came to this room because I heard Eugene-nim was here.]

[Surprise joint broadcast is crazy lol.]

The number of people in the chat room increased exponentially, and donation chats were flashing like crazy.

I nonchalantly adjusted the Ard Live settings to share the chat room with Eugene and said,

“Today, we’re planning on doing a joint dungeon raid with that side after a long time.”

[Well, Drakan hasn’t been running dungeons.]

[He’s always at war lol.]

[Are you finally doing content other than war?]

[Dungeon run!]

[Will we be able to see his crazy control again like in the Troll Dungeon?]

As soon as I spoke, countless chats poured in again.

I glanced at the chat list.

Perhaps because of Eugene’s appearance, most of the chat contents were questions directed at him.

From why they were doing a joint broadcast to when they prepared for the dungeon raid, and why his companions didn’t come along!

And Eugene answered those questions with a smile and in a sincere and friendly manner.

“Ah, yes, that’s right. Today, I decided to raid a dungeon with Drakan-nim. Ah, you’re asking where my other companions are? We just decided to do it together with Drakan-nim this time. Besides, it’s a 2-person limited dungeon, so even if I brought my companions, we wouldn’t be able to enter together.”

[Who doesn’t know that lol. Eugene, harem master, catfight eup eup!!]

[Please don’t spread unconfirmed rumors. PDF saved.]

[What rumors lol. Everyone who knows already knows lol.]

[The manager has blocked ‘TomorrowIWillBeHaremKing’-nim’s chat.]

Despite the chats mentioning the publicly spread rumors, Eugene’s face remained the same, except for a slightly awkward smile.

“Since you’re the one who found the dungeon we’re going to run today, you should introduce it.”

“Understood, Drakan-nim.”

[The two of them seem to be getting along pretty well?]

[Are they really the same people who fought tooth and nail in the previous game? I heard they were sworn enemies lol.]

[Meanwhile, Drakan, who never stops speaking informally lol. His stubbornness is crazy lol.]

[Who else would speak informally to him besides Drakan-nim lol.]

[Eugene-nim’s companions, these bastards.]

[Wow, but when did they become so close? lol.]

[So, just stop fighting. You two get along, right?]

[No, I don’t want to? No, I don’t want to? Yoo-jin, bubble-head lol.]

[Bubble-head? What about your Drakan?]

They seemed to be curious about Eugene and me getting along, as the chat was filled with nothing but that talk, and soon Eugene started his briefing as I instructed.

“The name of the dungeon that Drakan-nim and I will be raiding today is the Abandoned Temple.”

The Abandoned Temple’s dungeon grade is S, and the recommended level is 380 or higher.

With a limit on the number of people, the difficulty was expected to be quite high.

Well, that is, if it were under normal circumstances.

While listening to Eugene’s voice as he shared the dungeon information window and gave a briefing about the dungeon, I looked at the chat room.

[If it’s a 2-person limited dungeon, isn’t the difficulty high?]

[The content looks like it’s going to be no joke;;]

[No, it’s not an SSS-grade dungeon, it’s an S-grade dungeon, and Eugene is there too, so why is it dangerous? lol.]

[Seriously, it’ll probably be more comfortable and relaxing than my bedroom.]

[Drakan is going to get a free ride today~]

[We’re departing, hold on tight lol.]

Just as I thought, there was no tension in the chat room.

Well, it would be stranger to be nervous when Eugene is there.

“Then, let’s enter the dungeon.”

Hearing Eugene’s words, I stood next to him and, together, we stepped into the swirling dimensional rift, the dungeon gate.

▄ ▄ ▄

The moment I stepped into the gate.

A feeling as if enveloping my whole body passed by, and before I knew it, Eugene and I were in a dark temple corridor.

The corridor was dark overall, but luminous beads were embedded in the walls, casting a faint light.

“It’s a bit brighter now.”

Well, that was meaningless now thanks to the brilliant golden aura surrounding Eugene’s holy sword.

[lol lol lol Look at that aura lantern lol lol lol]

[Useful itself……]

[Golden aura X cool; I wish my aura color was golden too.]

The bold appearance of using aura as a lantern!

Looking at Eugene, I summoned the Lich Dice.

“Summon Lich Dice.”

[You called, Apostle-nim?]

As soon as my call ended, the air distorted, and a Lich covered in a black robe appeared.

It was Dice, my summon.

[Eeklol lol lol Look at him summoning a summon when it’s a 2-person limit lol lol lol]

[That’s cowardly lol lol lol You should have a fair fight head-on lol lol lol]

[Talking about fair and square lol lol What are you talking about when one-sided beatdowns are fun too lol lol]

[Really, these days one-sided content is more fun lol lol]

As soon as I summoned Dice, a heated reaction poured out in the chat window.

While watching the opinions clashing between winning fairly with control skills and the entertainment of one-sided broadcasts, I quietly summoned another summon.

“Summon Vampire King.”

[Vampire King Nosferatu answers your call.]

At the same time, a notification window popped up.

Woooong.

The blood-red ring on my hand vibrated, and a black crack appeared in the air, followed by a whitish fog that gradually began to take the shape of a human.

“Vampire King Nosferatu, I see my Lord.”

“Rise.”

Vampire King Nosferatu, speaking to me with utmost respect, kneeling on one knee!

[Ah, this is a bit too much, isn’t it lol lol]

[Even the Vampire King comes out, ah lol lol He’s overdoing it lol lol lol]

[The lineup is crazy lol lol lol]

[May the monsters rest in peace.]

Ignoring the endlessly raging chat, I looked at Nosferatu and said.

“You can use bat summoning, right?”

“That is correct.”

“Then scout the dungeon first.”

“Your command is my will.”

Nosferatu, receiving my order, chanted a spell, and soon a few bats were summoned in the air and flew up.

Flutter!

In the quiet hallway, the bats flew like drones.

“Let’s move after the scouting is finished.”

“Understood. What about the positions?”

Positions!

If we followed the standard dungeon strategy, the tank and melee dealer should be in the front, the ranged dealer in the center, and the healer in the rear.

However, with the strongest force, a top ranker, positions didn’t really matter.

“You be the healer and tank, I’ll be the melee dealer, the Vampire King will be the guide, and Dice will be the ranged dealer.”

“Understood.”

Eugene nodded at my words.

And not long after, the bats we sent returned, and Nosferatu closed his eyes for a moment and then opened them, chanting a spell.

Then, a bloody magic power flowed from his body and formed a shape in the air.

It was a perspective view of the dungeon.

“Dungeon structure analysis complete. I couldn’t enter the place that appears to be the boss room, but this is enough. The dungeon is single-layered, but the structure is complex. However, with this map, we can break through to the boss room using the shortest route.”

As Nosferatu gestured, a bloody magic power pierced through the perspective view, marking the path to the huge room that appeared to be the boss room.

[Wow lol lol lol It’s a map hack lol lol lol]

[Ah, Vampire King-nim, have some manners;]

[Red cheat map lol lol lol]

The chat was still endlessly scrolling before my eyes, but I ignored it and asked.

“What monsters appear?”

“It was a type I’ve never seen before. It’s humanoid, but with tentacles sprouting everywhere, a distorted monster with almost no human form remaining.”

At my words, Nosferatu snapped his fingers, and the bloody magic power also visualized the monster’s appearance.

A humanoid monster with tentacles sprouting everywhere!

And I had seen this monster before.

‘As expected, is this a dungeon related to those ‘Great Something’ guys from before?’

The Dark Elf Kingdom!

Those guys who occupied the capital, chanting about the Great One or Providence.

The mastermind behind the Great Cataclysm.

A fragment of the core story that runs through this game has appeared.

The Lycansrope quest itself was like proving the existence of the possible Otherworld content, and since it was intertwined with the Great Cataclysm, I thought it might appear, and my prediction turned out to be correct.

While I was thinking about the monsters and the dungeon.

Eugene looked at me and pretended to know.

“This is the monster that appeared in the video that Drakan-nim uploaded the other day.”

“You saw that?”

“Of course. I watch every video that Drakan-nim uploads as soon as it comes out. I also subscribed and liked it.”

I nodded at Eugene’s words.

Well, I also subscribed to his channel to analyze him, and watched all the videos while diligently pressing the dislike button, so it wasn’t particularly strange.

From the beginning, I was his potential enemy, and Verda was still keeping an eye on me, so it was natural for him to watch my videos.

“I see. Next time, leave a comment too.”

“Understood.”

[He’s telling him to leave a comment too lol lol lol]

[lol lol lol Isn’t this actually a talk show content instead of a dungeon strategy?]

[Their chemistry is unnecessarily good]

[No, but why did they fight? Are they really the same people who were so desperate to kill each other in the previous game? lol lol]

“Thank you for saying we have good chemistry. Ah, it’s not a talk show. It’s a dungeon strategy broadcast.”

The chat room was saying it wasn’t a dungeon strategy but a talk show, and Eugene laughed, reacting to each comment that was coming up.

I chuckled at Eugene’s appearance and then spoke to Nosferatu, who was still waiting respectfully in front of me.

“Nosferatu.”

“Speak, Lord.”

“Lead the way. Guide us to the boss room.”

“Your command is my will.”

Nosferatu politely replied to my words and immediately started to lead the way, and Eugene, Dice, and I followed behind him.

At that moment.

[Kee-hee-hee-hee-eek!]

A roar echoed from beyond the darkened hallway.

It was a monster.

Three humanoid monsters with distorted bodies and sprouting tentacles appeared from the darkness.

“Those insignificant beings dare to interrupt the Lord’s procession.”

Nosferatu’s face contorted at the sight.

Shing.

A sword with a striking blood-red blade was already in his hand.

“Pay for your sins with death! You lowly creatures!”

As Nosferatu swung his sword, the monster’s head flew through the air.

It was dead.

I could see the bloody energy flowing from the dead monster’s corpse and being absorbed into Nosferatu’s body.

It seemed he was absorbing blood.

“It tastes rotten.”

As if he had seen something unpleasant, Nosferatu sighed.

“Let’s go, Lord.”

I smiled as I listened to Nosferatu’s words.

As expected, one well-raised summon is worth ten companions, and it seemed like I would be able to clear this dungeon comfortably as well.

So, I followed Nosferatu, heading deeper and deeper into the dungeon with Eugene.
