Talent Swallowing Hero

Just as he was about to enter the red gate, a huge corroded devil beast appeared between him and the red gate.

‘A level 6 supreme-ranked corroded devil beast?’

It was at least ten times bigger than the corroded devil beasts that Leo killed until now.

It has two long horns and sharp teeth, and the saliva dripping from its mouth looks acidic as it corroded even the ground.

‘Roar’

As Leo was observing it, the colossal devil beast roared at him before rushing madly at him.

‘So, you can’t talk either.’

So far, not a single devil beast spoke anything, and they all did only one thing: it was to kill him as though they were possessed.

It was the same with this colossal devil beast. It madly rushed at him.

‘Even though I can fight it and try to kill it, I ran out of my energy in killing all the devil beasts. Hence, I will sit this one out.’

Looking at the madly rushing colossal devil beast, Leo shook his head and summoned back his two undead beings.

“I will try to fight you after coming back.”

After saying those words, Leo entered the [Secret Dimensional Space].

‘Grr’_.

The colossal devil beast stopped and checked its surroundings in confusion.

It wondered where its prey had disappeared; however, it could not find him.

‘Roar’

The colossal devil beast let out an angry roar before walking back to the gate and collapsing on the ground to rest.

‘It’s time to enter.’

On the other hand, Leo heaved a sigh of relief after seeing that the colossal devil beast didn’t have any spatial attack or spirit attack that could pierce through the space.

After seeing it sleep, Leo decided to enter the red gateway without wasting time.

‘I wonder what is….’

‘Boom’

While wondering what was inside the gateway, Leo tried to enter it; however, the moment he was about to see the foot on the other side of the gateway, he was blasted out of his secret dimensional space by some mysterious force.

<An outsider needs to defeat the guardian devil beast to enter this Sacred Ground>

At the same time, an angry voice resounded from the other side of the gateway, informing Leo to defeat the devil beast to enter the gateway.

‘What?’

Leo felt a shiver run down his back when he heard the voice.

It was not because the voice said he had to defeat the level 6 supreme-ranked colossal devil beast; instead, he was unconsciously scared just to hear that.

‘Who is that? Why is his voice alone making me shiver?’

Leo wiped the sweat from his forehead and thought about the owner of the voice that resounded from the other side of the gateway.

‘Roar’

‘Thud’

However, Leo didn’t have the time to think about the owner of the powerful voice as the colossal corroded devil beast rushed towards him with its mouth wide open.

‘Thankfully, my secret dimensional space was not destroyed earlier.’

Even though some mysterious yet powerful energy blasted him off, Leo was thankful that energy didn’t destroy his secret dimensional space.

Otherwise, he would be in a lot more trouble in this foreign world where he had spent 60 percent of his energy killing the corroded devil beasts earlier.

[Space Manipulation – Secret Dimensional Space].

Before the colossal devil beast could reach him, Leo entered the secret dimensional space to think of his next move.

‘How could a voice make me unconsciously shiver?’

The first thing he thought after entering his secret dimensional space was to think about the owner of the voice that came from the other side of the gateway.

‘Even though I only encountered a single level 9 supreme ranked hero until now, there is no way a peak supreme-ranked being could make me shiver just from his voice.’

Leo continued, ‘Moreover, after I become a supreme-ranked, my title [Supreme Killer] has been modified a little.’

‘Ding,

Title name: Supreme Killer.

Effect: 1) Ten percent additional damage on the Supreme ranked beings.

2) The title holder can’t be intimidated or suppressed by any supreme-ranked beings.

Note: This title can be stacked with other titles.

Previously, he was not intimidated by only low-level supreme-ranked beings; however, now, he could not be suppressed or intimidated by any supreme-ranked being.

‘This only concludes that the owner of that powerful voice from before belongs to someone that transcended the Supreme rank and reached the rank behind that.’

After thinking for a few moments, Leo concluded.

‘Moreover, he said it is a Sacred Ground. I think it is similar to [Treasure Land]; I need to enter it at any cost.’

Previously, Leo wanted to enter the gateway purely to satisfy his curiosity and to complete the mission; however, after learning that there was an existence that transcended the supreme rank, he became determined to enter it.

‘Since that powerful existence has said he could enter the gateway after defeating this colossal corroded devil beast, he might not harm me. Moreover, the system also didn’t warn anything about that existence and asked me to enter it; maybe, it is not dangerous.’

From the moment he received the system, it always warned him about the danger ahead of time.

Even though he recently unlocked the ‘Mission tab’, the system had always warned him or given hints about the danger while generating the mission.

Therefore, Leo was not worried that the powerful existence on the other side of the gateway would kill him after entering the gateway.

‘Anyway, to enter the gateway, I have to kill these colossal corroded devil beasts.’

Soon, Leo stopped thinking about the powerful existence on the other side of the gateway and looked at the colossal devil beast that went back to its sleep in front of the gate.

‘Even though I killed more than 10000 supreme ranked corroded devil beasts, I didn’t unlock any title; otherwise, it would have been a piece of cake for me to take care of that colossal beast. But, it looks like 10000 is not enough.’

Leo thought there should have been more level 1 to 3 supreme-ranked devil beasts. By killing them, Leo would have unlocked a title similar to [Spider Killer], [Bull Executioneer] and [Serpent Slayer].

‘Anyway, I have to do something and kill it. I am running out of time.’

Leo started racking his brain to come up with a good plan to defeat the colossal corroded devil beast.

‘Ding,

The remaining time to complete the mission: Nine hours.

‘Ding,

The remaining time to stay in this world: 20 hours.

He only had nine hours to complete the mission of entering the gateway, and Leo felt it would not be a good sign to enter after that nine hours because the system must have a reason for setting a deadline of only 12 hours for the mission when he could stay in this world for 24 hours.

‘I think I have to fight it head-on and exchange a few moves to know how strong its defence is and what its weakness is.’

He needed some rough estimation of the colossal devil beast’s defence and weakness to come up with a plan. Therefore, he decided to fight it for some time.

‘Ding,

The host’s [Arcane Silver] is upgraded to low-level supreme grade.

‘Ding,

The host’s new system is successfully unlocked. Please check it.
