As the Hydra, the snake with nine heads and holding the 10th seat among the 12 Apostles of Destruction, made its appearance,

“Mini Black Hole!”

Iona immediately cast the magic spell she had prepared in sync with the appearance of the Hydra.

Kaaaboomm!!!!

A roaring sound filled the air as a black hole opened in front of the heads of the Hydra, the mini black hole beginning to suck in everything around it.

And then,

-Aaaargh!

The golden head in the center of the Hydra’s three heads was swallowed by the mini black hole.

However,

-Seventh head, pull out the Ninth head!

-Got it.

The green head, following the instruction of the black head, which was the first on the far left, joined it in pulling the golden head from the black hole.

Although it was just a fragment with only a fraction of the power possessed by the Apostle of Destruction, the three-headed Hydra was not weak.

And,

“Kyoo-kyoo-kyoo-kyoo, you managed to withstand my magic?!”

Iona was not weak either. She was infuriated that the Hydra had escaped her spell, and her anger reached the fourth stage of ‘Kyoo’.

“Power of dimensions, follow my command and shred the enemy to pieces! Triple Mini Black Hole.”

Kaaaboomm!!!!

This time, three mini black holes appeared in front of each of the Hydra’s heads with Iona’s magic spell.

The Hydra’s heads struggled to avoid being sucked in, but

-Aaaargh!!

-Help!

-No!

Ultimately, they couldn’t resist the pull of the mini black holes and were gradually sucked into the black abyss.

Kaaaaaaabooooomm!!!!

The heads continued to be sucked in. However, they all shared one body.

Rip.

The body was torn into three parts following its heads and began to be sucked into the hole.

A moment later,

Clink.

Twelve bronze coins dropped to the floor as the body, now divided into thirds, was completely sucked into the mini black hole.

“Kyoot kyoot kyoot. That’s why you should have just gone when I sent you off peacefully!”

Iona said as she picked up the bronze coins.

“Kyooaaam. I need to sleep now.”

Yawning, Iona headed down to the 44th floor where Sejun and Theo were.

“Absorb!”

[Talent: Friend of Fire absorbs faint fire energy.]

Sejun placed his hand on the shell of a balanidae and absorbed its fire energy. Initially, he was surprised when the balanidae disappeared, but it didn’t matter since the back of the lake turtle was overflowing with balanidae.

Moreover, there were many balanidae on the belly of the Lake Turtle. So Sejun took care of the ones on the back, while the other animals harvested those on the turtle’s stomach.

As Sejun was in the midst of balanidae removal,

“Huh?!”

Sejun was surprised. The basic talent he first obtained upon awakening had evolved.

“I’ve heard that the basic talent you get first almost never changes…”

He wondered if his talent, Talent: Friend of Fire, was much more remarkable than he had initially thought.

“Hehehe.”

Sejun chuckled and examined his evolved talent.
