Soul Devourer Chapter 5 Episode 18 — Hunt Them Until Extinction
The place we teleported to was the plaza set up before the S-Rank dungeon.
Since we would be living inside the dungeon, procuring outdoor gear was absolutely necessary.
However, there was no way I could enter a store while accompanied by Samael, Santa Muerte, and Nox Chevalier.
So first, I prioritized raising their levels to ensure nothing would happen even if I left them alone while shopping.
While drawing everyone’s attention, I crossed the plaza and completed the entry procedures. I also informed the staff that I planned to stay inside the dungeon long-term.
They looked worried, but at that point, they simply had to trust the title of〘Regalia〙.
The instant I stepped through the dungeon entrance, the scenery changed completely.
In the distance, volcanoes intermittently spewed lava into the air. Countless cracks spread beneath my feet, with molten lava quietly flowing deep within them.
Scorching heat brushed against my cheeks, and overhead-
A massive fifty-meter-long creature covered in crimson dragon scales. With huge wings fused to its forelimbs spread wide, it occasionally spewed hellfire from its jaws — the monster known as the Flame Wyvern.
This time’s prey.
I would hunt them until they are extinct.
Activating the《Ring of the Undying Sage》, I resummoned five Elder Liches. Their role would be guarding Samael and the others.
Now, it's hunting time!
From the《Magic Pouch》, I drew《Balmung》for the first time in a while. A sword with a special effectiveness against dragon-type monsters, it was perfectly suited to the current situation.
Immediately activating【Void Magic】, I teleported far above the Flame Wyverns.
Using【Air Step】to create footholds, I leapt straight downward.
Combining the momentum of the fall with the acceleration of the jump, I sliced clean through one thick neck. Even the tightly packed dragon scales were meaningless before the blade of《Balmung》.
Watching the massive headless body crash toward the ground, I created another foothold and launched myself back into the sky.
I gave them no chance to evade.
Tracing trajectories like three-dimensional aerial maneuvers, I raced through the air, decapitating Flame Wyverns one after another.

『Dexterity +32』
『Luck +40』
In just a brief instant, around fifteen had been slaughtered. For the time, the shadows dominating the sky had vanished.
Landing on the ground, I hoisted the headless Flame Wyvern corpses and returned to Samael and the others.
Santa Muerte and Deathblack Knight Nox Chevalier had no need for food, but Samael was different.
I had heard dragon meat was both rare and delicious, but this time it couldn’t be helped. With clumsy hands, I peeled away the dragon scales and urged it to eat.
After confirming it was ravenously devouring the meat, I stored the remaining corpses inside the《Magic Pouch》.
Looking up, countless more Flame Wyverns soared arrogantly through the skies farther ahead.
For now, the goal was to raise Samael and the others to at least level 80, where they could function as proper combat forces.
Once they reached that point, they could gain combat experience on their own.
No matter how badly they were injured, I would instantly heal them with【Holy Magic】. I wouldn’t let them die.
“Alright. We’ll keep hunting until around 2 PM. After that, I’ll temporarily leave. Get fired up.”

“…Yeah. Well, I think they’ll be fine?”

E/N:
Apparently Nox doesn't make much noise, even though it's basically a hollow armor. Weird but he's a kuudere ig 😂!
Also, don't forget to check out Samael's, Santa Muerte's and Nox Chevalier's status under Yuito's status in "Current Status"!
Stay tuned!
