Solo Leveling: Ragnarok – 97



Episode 97

“Why are you doing this?”

“What the hell is Volkan doing like this?”

The young devils reacted in confusion to the sudden atmosphere.

Then the old demons born before the War of Monarchs clicked their tongues and blamed them.

“what? “You don’t know Greedy Volkan?”

“Anyway what are young people these days!”

“If Volkan were still alive do you think we would have just been picking axes?”

“Cancer cancer. “They would have been eaten right away and there wouldn’t even be a bone left!”

“…?”

The old devils began to rush to open their mouths for the younger ones who were even more puzzled.

That terrible and scary past.

…Demons are broadly classified into two categories.

A demon with intelligence and a demon without intelligence.

Intelligent demons did not regard non-intelligent demons as compatriots and treated them as insignificant creatures.

and….

“Volkan was nothing more than a nameless creature a long time ago!”

It was even a small creature that grovelled around the very bottom of the demon world licking up the blood and flesh left on the floor after other demons had finished hunting.

“It’s just a bug that wriggles based on instinct.”

Volkan’s position in the demon world was just that.

However the Devil’s Egg is a hellish place where fierce battles between each other and being eaten are daily life.

It could be said that the truly strong devil in this chaos is not one with strong strength or magical power but one who somehow manages to endure and survive until the end.

“…In that sense Volkan was a truly strong demon.”

Although Volkan was born weak and lowly he crawled flat on the ground during the day and hid in the ground at night to avoid becoming prey to the strong.

Then he picked up the garbage that other demons ate and spilled and the blood and flesh of demons and gradually increased his power in a place that no one knew about.

Then one day.

It was entirely by chance that Volkan who had been endlessly hiding from the powerful discovered ‘it’.

‘Sooooo…?’

Unfortunately Volkan at the time did not have the intelligence to recognize its identity.

But even without intelligence his instincts made the best decisions.

Wow!

Volkan clung to the huge thing and broke a small branch.

And it ravenously ate the leaves hanging from the branches.

That moment.

Wow!

‘…Kruk?!’

A change occurred in Volkan’s body.

Kuduk! Kuduk!

‘Gaaaaaa…!’

Volkan’s body struggling in extreme pain began to grow bigger and bigger.

At the same time a glimmer of intelligence bloomed in that empty mind.

And then I realized it.

The identity of what is in front of you now.

[World Tree]

“…What Volkan discovered was the end of the world tree that was spreading out into the demon world.”

The lowly devil who happened to pick up a leaf from the world tree and eat it was given the name ‘Volkan’.

And wielding ‘Volkan’s Club’ made from broken branches of the World Tree he began hunting down and eating the strong demons who had looked down on him.

‘Gaaaa!’

There was no demon that could block the attacks of Volkan who used the strong branches of the World Tree as a weapon.

In this way Volkan grew up by chewing and swallowing the blood and flesh of the demons he defeated until his stomach exploded.

“The moment we encountered Volkan we were forced to make a choice.”

Either you become Volkan’s prey or you fall flat in front of him and volunteer to become his subordinates.

In this way Volkan was eventually able to become the ruler of a region and a demon nobleman.

But is it because of abnormal growth?

For some reason even after becoming a demon noble Volkan still did not have the ability to speak.

A minimal level of intelligence was created but that was it.

He was still just a predator who lived by pursuing his instincts and he didn’t even know how to create ‘bloodstone’ the symbol of demonic nobility.

Of course even if I couldn’t make bloodstone I could just chew and swallow the demon I hunted whole.

Rather it was much more delicious and enjoyable for Volkan.

“Even after Volkan became a demon noble he ruled as a predator who constantly preyed on lower-level demons.”

[Greedy Volkan]

The demons of the time called him by that name and trembled in fear.

“Until he was killed by the Shadow Legion during the War of the Lords.”

“….”

The young devils swallowed their dry saliva as they listened to the old stories told by the old devils.

Because I knew how incredible it was for a low-level devil to reach the level of devil nobility through his own power.

“I wonder how much they ate….”

This would have been impossible even if he had to eat all the demons that filled the Colosseum.

And at this moment.

In the center of the Colosseum…

Mmmuuuuu…!

Quang!

A huge demon with the horns of Volkan was engaged in a bloody fight with the Minotaurs.

The old demons nodded with confidence as they saw that scene in their eyes.

“It looks a little different but it’s definitely true.”

“That’s Volkan’s horn.”

“It’s Volkan’s energy.”

“If it’s not Volkan who came back to life then it’s Volkan’s blood relatives…”

Regardless of which of the two was true it was a truly shocking situation.

* * *

Meanwhile Suho was dumbfounded while fighting as he heard noises coming from all over the place.

“Did you hear? “They say I’m Volkan’s son?”

[congratulations. The secret of birth has been revealed.]

“Don’t play around. “What kind of guy was Volkan to get such a reaction?”

[It was just a fat pig with a good appetite. With a full stomach.]

“You don’t look like me at all?”

[I think I stimulated something in Volkan by eating the bloodstone in here.]

Volkan was a demon noble who had never consumed bloodstone in his life.

When such a person (even though it was a horn) suddenly tasted bloodstone like this his energy from before his life suddenly exploded.

Just as when rain falls on dry land sprouts sprout within it.

[Right now Volkan’s unique stench is coming out of your horn.]

“stink? “I can’t smell anything?”

[That’s because it’s a smell that only demons can smell. After that!]

“know!”

At Esil’s warning Suho immediately stopped talking and turned around.

And then he grabbed the horns of the Minotaur that was attacking him from behind like a mad bull and slammed his fist down.

bang!

“Mmmuuu!”

The Minotaur opposing him was truly tough.

The guy took Suho’s hard hit with his bare body and at the same time returned the vicious punch to Suho.

Kwaang-!

A huge shock wave exploded from Suho’s body as if a bomb had exploded.

but.

[‘Skill: Tenacity’ reduces damage.]

“I’m tough too.”

Suho also continued to swing his fist while receiving the attack with his bare body.

“Mooooooo!”

Bang bang bang!

[What an ignorant battle this is…]

Esil stuck out his tongue as if he was fed up.

Indeed this fighting method of giving up defense and only attacking each other was a method so vulgar that a demon noble could not even imagine.

No there was only one nobleman like that.

It’s Volkan.

bang!

“Moooooo….”

In the end the winner and loser of that ignorant fight were decided.

In the end another giant monster lost its strength and collapsed due to Suho’s merciless violence.

“It’s amazing to have real tenacity.”

Suho was truly impressed.

The five Minotaurs he had defeated were still not dead but were panting heavily and writhing on the ground.

Even though the winner was decided the devils were stunned and couldn’t even shout.

“oh my god….”

“I defeated five Minotaurs by myself…”

“As expected Volkan’s son….”

However there was only one prison guard who was different.

“…Hehehe.”

The guard’s eyes as he looked at Su-ho were shining with greed.

‘Is there such a windfall? Volkan’s blood relatives!’

Whoop.

I keep drooling.

It was natural.

Because it was none other than Volkan!

A symbolic being that even low-level demons can become nobles!

I was curious.

‘How strong can I become if I eat that guy?’

The moment I thought of that imagination an enormous appetite arose.

The warden quickly glanced around the Colosseum.

‘It hasn’t arrived yet!’

Despite all this chaos the tyrant king had still not appeared in the Colosseum.

This was all thanks to the one-horned one ending the battle too quickly.

When he realized that fact a look of urgency appeared on the warden’s face.

‘What if I eat that guy first before the tyrant king arrives?’

What happens then?

‘Maybe I’ll become stronger than the tyrant king?’

The moment such a provocative thought came to mind a tremendous thrill went through the warden’s entire body from head to toe.

‘I will become stronger than the tyrant king? Is this me? Become the ruler of this place?’

The devil’s heart filled with desire began to pound like thunder.

And as a devil wouldn’t it be a great disrespect to ignore this desire?

Swish!

“Oh!”

“Go warden?!”

When the guard suddenly jumped into the arena the eyes of the demon guards beside him widened.

But none of them dared to stop his unexpected behavior.

In this place where the tyrant king was absent he was the highest-ranking devil.

When Suho saw the guard running towards him Lee Chae came to mind.

“It’s a large vessel.”

[Don’t let your guard down! He has much higher magical power than you!]

“Magic power isn’t everything.”

furthermore….

‘It’s much more efficient to catch the leader first rather than all at once.’

Suho quickly prepares for battle.

However even though the warden acted impulsively due to desire he was by no means a bad person.

His mean eyes quickly turned to the minotaurs lying around Suho.

‘You can’t let your guard down.’

Anyway the one-horned one was the one who knocked down five of those strong guys with his single body.

Moreover if you were Volkan’s son you couldn’t let down your guard even more.

The warden stretched out his hands and shouted at the Minotaurs.

“Rise again madbloods!”

[Kyaak?! How dare you say those words first!]

Ber who was hiding in the shadows became very angry.

However the light blood poison was already spreading out from the guard’s hands and poisoning the fallen Minotaurs.

“Mmmuuuu…!”

The Minotaurs stood up again writhing in great pain.

My body was extremely hot.

All the blood in my veins was boiling.

Using light-blood poison on those who were already dying from depleted physical strength was practically a death sentence.

If this poison had been used from the beginning the Minotaurs would not have even tried to fight to save their lives.

But it was different now.

“Mooooooo!”

The Minotaurs took all this pain and anger and exploded it towards Guardian who had been fighting them all this time.

[The bred Minotaur becomes mad.]

[The bred Minotaur becomes mad.]

[The bred Minotaur becomes mad.]

….

The warden smiled even more evilly and gave orders to the guys.

“okay! Kill it! “Tear that guy limb from limb even if it means burning his life!”

“Mooooooo!”

“Haha! Blood and kin of Volkan! “I will eat every last bit of your blood flesh and bone!”

The warden along with the minotaurs tinged with madness rushed to chew on Su-ho’s heart and eat it.

“The power of Volkan is mine…!”

It was then.

Jiying-

As if in response to the guard’s words the guardian’s horn or rather Volkan’s horn began to vibrate and make a strange howling sound.

and.

Tiring!

[An emergency quest has occurred.]

’emergency?’

A quest window suddenly opened up in front of Suho.

[Urgent Quest: Volkan’s Greed]

Driven by a powerful thirst for power the demonic spirit sleeping within Volkan’s horn awakens.

‘Greedy Volkan’ has woken up from a long sleep and is feeling extremely hungry.

Feed Volkan his fill of demon souls and earn special rewards.
