Necromancer Survival

rprisingly, though the wound was deep enough to expose bone, it healed in the blink of an eye.

     Bae Jaemin was so surprised he was rendered speechless.
Then, as if he had been waiting for this moment, Kim Sangyoon smiled bitterly and struck his fists together.

[Berserker Drive.]

     The skill, which must have been triggered by clapping his fists together, caused steam to rise from the Warrior’s entire body.

    In that state, Kim Sangyoon jumped high, in place, and rotated 180 degrees.
He placed his entire momentum behind one hand, ready to deliver a hefty swing.

Thud–!

    And then, the Warrior suddenly appeared in front of the Priest, as if he were using a ‘Blink’ skill.
The defenseless Bae Jaemin was struck in the face and rolled onto the floor.

“”

     Reflexively holding his hand to his face to stem the nosebleed, Bae Jaemin shouted in surprise, finding it hard to believe that Kim Sangyoon could become so suddenly powerful.
“How could you have a skill like that…!”

    However, Kim Sangyoon grumbled, smiled, and stretched the muscles in his shoulders.
He then lowered his posture once more and rushed in; another one-sided beating followed.

     Bae Jaemin shot out a skill to deal with the rushing Warrior.
But, though Kim Sangyoon had been in front of the Priest, Kim Sangyoon appeared behind Bae Jaemin and dealt a heavy blow to break his ribs.

Then, he appeared on the right after pretending to attack from the left, slashing      across Bae Jaemin’s cheek three or four times.
However, when Bae Jaemin tried to fight back, the Warrior appeared in another blindspot.
Eventually, the Priest had no choice but to raise a triple shield and retreat a few steps.
“Don’t make me laugh… I won’t… Not to a bastard like you…!”

     Though Bae Jaemin used his skills to heal all the injuries Kim Sangyoon inflicted, the Priest was dismayed despite his currently favorable situation.
His pride had been hit hard, and he seemed to have lost his composure.

     He nervously wielded his staff as he floated large-scale skills in every direction.
“[Please cut off the head of the arrogant heretics.
Let the grief of the unbelievers be heard.
This holy war will always end in your victory.
Grant eternal despair to those groaning in hell.]…!”

    Bae Jaemin drew a holy symbol with his fingers from which a wave originated, and a strong wind blew.
I protected my broken hand and was pushed back by the sheer force.

     However, Kim Sangyoon stood firm; he raised his red eyes and looked at Bae Jaemin without moving a muscle.
He gazed at Bae Jaemin as if the Priest was a cornered prey.
I could feel a transparent, savage impulse emanating from the Warrior, as if he wanted to pick his opponent apart piece by piece.

     Bae Jaemin bit his lips momentarily–he too had felt that bloodlust.
However, the Priest seemed more angry than afraid.
“You cheeky little…!”

     As expected, Bae Jaemin began swinging the staff harder than before, his flourishes fueled by anger.
Soon, stronger beams of light burst out than the waves before.
The beams gradually began to produce a silhouette of an angel, its holy eyes closed.
“[Angel Bind.]”

      There were a total of four angels, all of them holding chains.
They walked slowly around Kim Sangyoon; the chains created a barrier as they weaved in and around each other.

    The chains continued to wind around him until a dense network of light, like a net, surrounded Kim Sangyoon.
It seemed the Priest had activated a powerful skill that could hold the opponent in place for any future attacks.
The Warrior also lowered his stance, letting out a long, low groan…he must have felt the unusual aura.

[Grr….]

     At that moment.

     Shockingly, Kim Sangyoon began digging at his exposed, unhealed stomach.
I heard the gruesome sound of flesh tearing apart; the smell of blood became even denser.

[Berserker Drive, Mode Two.]

     As if everything before had been nothing but a warm-up, pitch-black tribal tattoos began to appear all over the Warrior’s body.

    A black line stretched from his wounded stomach to his chin; Kim Sangyoon’s body swelled to the point of bursting.
His eyes became completely black; the whites of his sclera were nowhere to be seen.
Furthermore, he began to completely overwhelm the Priest’s energy.

    However, Bae Jaemin laughed at that appearance, “I see now… You were playing around with your skills at the cost of your life, weren’t you?”

     What did he mean by ‘at the cost of his life?’

     I looked at Kim Sangyoon, startled by those words.
“……!”

     Ominously–and just as Bae Jaemin had stated–the Warrior’s body was slowly crumbling from the back.
It was as if his flesh was turning into dried blood and was flaking away.

     However, Kim Sangyoon opened his closed eyes and answered tranquilly, [I’ll lose 10 years, and you’ll lose 50, you son of a bitch.
That’s not really a loss, is it?]

     He clenched both fists and roared–

[Come at me!]

TL: It’s interesting.
Kim Sangyoon’s dialogue is now in brackets.
I wonder why?
