The 100th Regression of the Max-Level Player

Chapter 159: The Devil’s Blessing (2)

“Hey.”

[…Yes?]

“Bring more.”

Ryu Min commanded Calren to summon more angels.

Initially, five appeared, and then ten.

The outcome was predictable.

[You have slain the 5th-grade angel ‘Lapir’!]

[Stat Points+8]

[Gold+81,780]

[Number of angels slain: 15/100]

[You have slain the 5th-grade angel ‘Belry’!]

[Stat Points+8]

[Gold+81,780]

[Number of angels slain: 16/100]

‘These are all 5th and 6th-grade angels. Send stronger ones.’

This time ten more angels appeared.

Judging by their wings, they seemed like 4th-grade angels.

[So you are the human who was slaughtering angels.]

[How reckless to create such mayhem. You must be painfully killed.]

[Such a pitiful human. Unlucky.]

However, the truly unlucky one was not Ryu Min but the angels.

Given his heavily inflated stats, a few swings of his scythe could do the job.

[You have slain the 4th-grade angel ‘Volua’!]

[Stat Points+16]

[Gold+163,560]

[Number of angels slain: 26/100]

‘It would be nice if even 2nd or 3rd-grade ones came. Send stronger ones.’

There wasn’t much time left, so he hoped for stronger adversaries.

It wasn’t likely that the Seven Archangels would hear of a few foot soldiers’ deaths.

‘High-ranking nobles wouldn’t appear just because of this.’

Moreover, it’s more likely that self-centered celestial beings would act out of boredom.

‘Just kill 100 and then go break a sub-quest.’

Had he slain about 50?

While slaughtering up to 4th-grade angels and his stats continuously rising.

A variable appeared.

[Hmm, so you were the one killing angels?]

Unlike before, an angel with long, elaborate wings appeared, causing Ryu Min to fall silent.

‘Is this one of the Seven Archangels?’

The angel before him undoubtedly possessed extraordinary power, as indicated by his wings.

If spread out, they seemed to span over 20 meters.

Appearing to have at least eight wings in total.

‘Surely one of the Seven Archangels.’

He knew firsthand about 1st-grade angels.

Their wings did not exceed six.

‘But this face… I haven’t met this one in previous regressions.’

Though not as overwhelmingly imposing as the angel Ryu Min had met before, this one still felt formidable.

‘What’s going on? Why would one of the Seven Archangels show up all of a sudden?’

Normally, just filling up 100 angels and returning wouldn’t have triggered such an event.

Nothing was supposed to happen.

It was the same in the previous regression, and the one before that, and the one before that.

Therefore he wasn’t worried, but now an unfamiliar one had boldly appeared.

Especially at such an early stage.

‘Has the future changed?’

Ryu Min cautiously watched what the angel would say next.

[Are you black scythe?]

‘He knows my nickname?’

[Seeing you wield a scythe, I guess it’s true. After all, the Akashic Records can’t be wrong.]

‘Akashic Records?’

He had heard that term before.

When he killed a high orc in one second, and when he cleared the 99th floor of the Tower of Trials.

Each time, a message appeared stating his feats were recorded in the Akashic Records.

[You piqued my curiosity after you set two new records. I also heard you were killing my soldiers.]

‘Ah.’

Only then did Ryu Min somewhat deduce the source of the variable.

‘Normally, by this time, there should have only been one entry in the Akashic Records due to clearing the Tower of Trials. But I’ve set two records in this regression.’

Killing the high orc in one second was a first in this regression.

That’s why he had been listed in the Akashic Records twice by this point.

It seemed that had created the variable.

‘What should I do? Should I fight? It doesn’t seem hostile yet…’

He could tell by reading its thoughts.

The angel appeared out of mere curiosity.

But underneath that curiosity was a disdain for humans.

And looking deeper, he could matter what, it planned to kill him and erase his existence.

‘This is turning problematic. What now? Do I have a chance if I fight?’

In a brief moment, Ryu Min desperately gathered information about his opponent.

He also learned that the angel’s name was Remiel.

One of the Seven Archangels, ranking lowest, and possessing the authority of lightning.

‘Like other angels, his thoughts are readable, and I can see 7 seconds into the future. Maybe there’s a chance.’

He had always wanted to challenge one of the Seven Archangels.

He was curious about what rewards would come if he killed one.

Since even killing ordinary angels yielded hidden rewards, it was likely the system had set rewards for the Seven Archangels too.

‘The regrettable part is that there’s no more time to ponder.’

If he was going to fight, it had to be now.

Soon the Reaper Transformation would end.

‘I can reset the time by killing Yamti’s monsters.’

However, Ryu Min didn’t even glance at Yamti.

He hadn’t even turned his eyes either.

She had hidden in a corner of the cave early on.

If he carelessly called her out, revealing her presence, Yamti might be put in danger.

‘Yamti’s ability needs to be utilized continuously in the future. I can’t just let her die here to maintain the Reaper Transformation buff.’

Time was pressing.

Only 10 seconds remained until the Reaper Transformation ended.

He had to kill someone to reset the time.

If he was to fight one of the Seven Archangels.

‘Then…’

Ryu Min’s gaze shifted to Calren, who was beside Remiel.

His scythe stretched out swiftly.

At the same moment, Remiel began to speak.

[Why are you silent? At least have a conversation…]

Crunch!

Calren’s head shattered into pieces, blood splattering towards Remiel.

At the same time, Ryu Min’s Reaper Transformation timer was reset.

‘It’s done!’

Fortunately, he was able to maintain Reaper Transformation, but the expression suggested that he had angered the Archangel.

[A conversation is unnecessary, is that it?]

Trembling with rage, sparks flew over Remiel’s entire body.

[I’ll grant your wish then. Die, human.]
