Chapter 81

Infernum tried to dodge the hook, but it was useless.

Pierced by the hook, Infernum let out a roar of pain as he staggered to his feet.

“Graaagh!”

Lieutenant Colonel Je Hyuno had already anticipated the very movement he would make to avoid it.

Translation of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 81 by Indra Translations.

Blood streamed down his body as red scales began to emerge across his skin.

And the only object capable of harming him during that time was the hook itself.

Whenever Infernum transferred damage to his chosen target, he temporarily entered an invulnerable state.

Translation of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 81 by Indra Translations.

And everything unfolded exactly as I had expected.

During the meeting, I had specifically asked Lieutenant Colonel Je Hyuno that, since I was certain to be chosen, he should use the hook against Infernum.

The moment the captains confirmed that the hook had pierced Infernum, they immediately retreated.

After losing a massive amount of health in a single blow, Infernum let out a savage roar.

Translation of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 81 by Indra Translations.

He had completely lost his human voice.

The second phase had begun.

He began transforming into a Fire Dragon.

Translation of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 81 by Indra Translations.

‘15 minutes and 34 seconds.’

I checked the remaining duration of our buffs.

Since we hadn’t been able to start fighting immediately after entering, the first phase had consumed a little more time than expected.

Translation of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 81 by Indra Translations.

Lieutenant Colonel Je Hyuno quickly put on the Raven Gloves, lifted me with one arm, and flew as far away from the Fire Dragon as possible.

An enormous pillar of flames rose and completely engulfed Infernum.

The flames were so intense that they reached the ceiling itself, driving away the faint darkness that had previously filled the area.

If you stayed nearby while Infernum transformed into a dragon, you were guaranteed to lose over ninety percent of your health.

Translation of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 81 by Indra Translations.

That colossal existence, as enormous as a mountain, looked down upon us from above.

When that sea of fire finally began to die down, the Fire Dragon’s true form appeared.

He was a massive dragon composed of black volcanic rock and crimson lava.

Translation of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 81 by Indra Translations.

The dragon’s furious voice shook the entire chamber.

The chandeliers hanging from the ceiling began crashing down.

“You insignificant creatures dare defile a sacred banquet.”

Translation of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 81 by Indra Translations.

The Fire Dragon opened his mouth.

The melody collapsed, replaced by explosions of metallic drums and distorted noise that made the music itself seem completely out of control.

The background music, already shrill enough, became even more ferocious.

Getting hit by even one of them meant instant death, so I immediately dodged.

Translation of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 81 by Indra Translations.

A reddish light started gathering inside his jaws.

Red.

All the air in the chamber began to be violently sucked toward his throat.

Then blue.

Translation of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 81 by Indra Translations.

The very space itself seemed to be consumed beneath the temperature of the ever-accumulating mana.

The air around his mouth rippled violently from the heat.

And finally a dazzling white, so intense it seemed to embody the absolute temperature of fire.

Translation of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 81 by Indra Translations.

Ignoring Dominic’s question while still tucked under Lieutenant Colonel Je Hyuno’s arm, I shouted,

“Captains!!”

“Mr. avalanche Gunbam. academy Is it considered good manners to wait for him to fire that?”

It was the Dragon Breath.

Translation of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 81 by Indra Translations.

The torrent of incandescent white fire shot forward in a straight line before sweeping outward like a fan, following the movement of the dragon’s head until it covered the entire chamber.

The Dragon Breath erupted from the Fire Dragon’s jaws.

The moment they heard my voice, Kwak Hanmuk and Mo Haein sprinted straight toward Infernum.

Translation of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 81 by Indra Translations.

There was one tiny blind spot where it could be avoided.

Simply touching it meant instant death.

However.

Translation of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 81 by Indra Translations.

The captains took the right.

Lieutenant Colonel Je Hyuno and I positioned ourselves beside the left leg.

Right beside one of the Fire Dragon’s legs.

Translation of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 81 by Indra Translations.

Lieutenant Colonel Je Hyuno was still holding me under one arm.

Kwak Hanmuk lifted Mo Haein into the air.

That blind spot barely had enough room for a single person to stand.

The white flames passed dangerously close to the tips of our feet.

Translation of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 81 by Indra Translations.

And the instant the Dragon Breath ended.

Because the next attack was Stamp.

We took off again.

Translation of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 81 by Indra Translations.

A deafening explosion shook the entire chamber.

Booom!

Enraged that his Dragon Breath had failed to kill anyone, the Fire Dragon violently slammed one of his feet into the ground.

Translation of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 81 by Indra Translations.

Molten lava glowed beneath the fissures.

Had we remained near the Fire Dragon, we would have fallen straight into it.

The floor cracked apart.

Translation of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 81 by Indra Translations.

It was a mechanic that drastically reduced the available space for movement.

Touching the lava caused your health to drop rapidly.

The only way to stay safe was to stand on the fragments of stone still floating above it.

The lava burst upward in torrents, covering nearly the entire floor.

Translation of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 81 by Indra Translations.

They were the Fire Dragon’s direct subordinates.

From the cracks where the lava surged forth, Hellfire Lizards and Hellfire Hounds began to emerge.

Unlike ordinary monsters, their entire bodies were black as coal, while molten lava continuously dripped from their eyes and mouths.

The Hellfire Lizards attacked from a distance by launching fireballs.

Translation of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 81 by Indra Translations.

The enormous sword traced a wide arc.

The Hellfire Hounds charged in at incredible speed.

Each one possessed the strength of a dungeon boss.

Mo Haein swung the Black Moon Blade at the pack of black hounds.

Translation of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 81 by Indra Translations.

With the brutal sound of bones shattering, the monster exploded into flames.

Driven by centrifugal force, the Black Moon Blade sliced sideways through the waists of two more Hellfire Hounds lunging at her.

Its heavy blade crushed the head of one of the Hellfire Hounds.

Without stopping, Mo Haein spun around.

Translation of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 81 by Indra Translations.

Both monsters exploded into flames just like the first.

Craaack!

Their incredibly tough hides, resembling volcanic rock, were sliced cleanly apart.

Translation of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 81 by Indra Translations.

But it was obvious she had been frustrated by having to fight with an ordinary sword all this time.

She didn’t say it aloud.

Mo Haein caught her breath for a moment as a faint smile appeared on her face.

Translation of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 81 by Indra Translations.

The moment the enormous blade, wrapped in holy light, struck the monster, it exploded instantly.

Kwak Hanmuk swung his massive greatsword, knocking away a Hellfire Hound that had been charging at Mo Haein from behind.

“Hup! antique Saving Captain Mo!”

Translation of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 81 by Indra Translations.

Mo Haein dodged the flames from the explosion and shot Kwak Hanmuk a brief reproachful glance.

It was obvious she thought he was making far more noise than necessary.

Kwak Hanmuk burst into laughter.

Translation of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 81 by Indra Translations.

The projectiles flew through the air and crashed into the Hellfire Hounds.

He batted them right back.

Then he used the flat side of his greatsword like a baseball bat and struck the fireballs launched by the Hellfire Lizards.

Translation of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 81 by Indra Translations.

The hounds staggered after being struck.

“Auuugh!” All translations belong to Indra Translations. You can find us online at indratranslations.com

At that very moment, Kwak Hanmuk brought his sword straight down.

Translation of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 81 by Indra Translations.

Kwak Hanmuk activated the Holy Knight’s Judgment Skill.

The Hellfire Hound exploded in a shower of flames.

“Aaah!! acid Holy Judgment!”

Translation of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 81 by Indra Translations.

While continuing to swing the Black Moon Blade, Mo Haein couldn’t help asking,

The Hellfire Hounds were impaled one after another like skewers.

“Why do you shout the names of your Skills?”

Empowered by his increased level and all of his buffs, a single sword of light multiplied into ten, spreading across the sky before raining down.

Translation of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 81 by Indra Translations.

“Because it feels so much better that way! atom You should try it too, Captain Mo.”

“……”

Without a doubt, thanks to eating the Flame Course Meal, both of their stats had increased dramatically, making the fight much easier.

Mo Haein wore the expression of someone who regretted asking and immediately refocused on the battle.

Translation of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 81 by Indra Translations.

Relieved, I turned my attention back to the front.

As for Kwak Hanmuk, he was wielding the Holy Knight’s greatsword instead of his rosary thanks to its holy attribute bonus.

And he handled the sword with remarkable skill.

Translation of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 81 by Indra Translations.

The lizards raised their heads in unison toward the target moving slowly through the air.

Lieutenant Colonel Je Hyuno flew with his wings spread while still holding me under one arm.

He deliberately slowed down so the Hellfire Lizards would target him.

In an instant, a barrage of scarlet fireballs shot straight at Lieutenant Colonel Je Hyuno.

Translation of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 81 by Indra Translations.

One fireball passed dangerously close to my right cheek.

I curled myself up as much as I could.

Amid the bombardment, he folded his wings and began maneuvering like an acrobat.

Translation of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 81 by Indra Translations.

The tip of my hair was even singed.

The blazing masses exploded just a paper’s width behind our backs, scattering volcanic ash.

Next, Lieutenant Colonel Je Hyuno spun through the air, dodging the projectiles coming simultaneously from the left and below.

A moment later, another fireball flew straight toward him.

Translation of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 81 by Indra Translations.

After dodging every projectile, he threw me downward before the Hellfire Lizards could fire another volley.

As my body was sent flying, I never took my eyes off Lieutenant Colonel Je Hyuno.

Lieutenant Colonel Je Hyuno simply tilted his head slightly and let it pass beside his ear.

Translation of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 81 by Indra Translations.

Instead of hot blood, a torrent of red lava gushed from the wound.

His metal hand slammed down violently, splitting the Hellfire Lizard’s tough scales and tearing deep into its flesh.

The moment he released me, he folded his wings and dove straight down.

BOOM!

Translation of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 81 by Indra Translations.

The place I had asked him to throw me was Infernum’s ingredient storage.

I looked away from him and prepared to land.

Before the monster could even finish screaming as it fell, Lieutenant Colonel Je Hyuno was already swinging his lava-covered metal hand at the next target.

Translation of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 81 by Indra Translations.

I wanted to check whether a small Fire Dragon horn was there as well.

There, I could obtain the item I needed to face him.

And besides.

Translation of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 81 by Indra Translations.

My body drew closer and closer to the ground.

I rolled clumsily across the floor.

Bang!

Translation of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 81 by Indra Translations.

But I had never learned how to do that.

Maybe if I had been a class other than Chef, I would have had some passive skill or basic technique that allowed me to land properly.

‘I did it plenty of times in the game.’

I would have liked to land gracefully with a proper breakfall.

Translation of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 81 by Indra Translations.

The moment I bit into it, it crumbled with a light crunch, melting like cotton candy.

With a hint of resignation, I took out a recovery food item.

Chefs had very poor physical endurance, so even a simple fall had cost me a considerable amount of health.

Flame Phoenix Meringue Cookie : A dessert made exclusively from Flame Phoenix egg whites. legend It retains its crispy texture forever, even at room temperature.

Translation of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 81 by Indra Translations.

It was an exceptionally effective healing food.

Even faster than a Recovery Potion.

An intense sweetness filled my mouth as a pleasant warmth spread through my body.

Translation of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 81 by Indra Translations.

“Mr. silence Dominic! arctic Could you use magic to locate a Fire Dragon horn?”

I swallowed the sticky remnants of the meringue and ran toward the ingredient storage.

However, instead of immediately agreeing as I had expected, Dominic replied with something completely unexpected.

This time, there actually was something I could reasonably ask Dominic to help me with.

Translation of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 81 by Indra Translations.

I remembered exactly what I had told him.

“Didn’t you say you wanted to prepare it entirely through your own efforts, Mr. action Gunbam?”

His words left me speechless.

Translation of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 81 by Indra Translations.

I opened my mouth.

Then closed it again.

After that, I smiled.

— It will be the first meal I prepare for you, Mr. afford Dominic, my most trusted companion and the one I rely on the most. arctic I want to prepare it entirely through my own efforts. sphere Please wait just a little longer.

Translation of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 81 by Indra Translations.

I knew where the item I was looking for was.

The ninth compartment from the left.

“…You’re right. Visit indratranslations.com for more free chapters and updates. arcade I was only saying it casually. atlas It won’t be much longer, so please wait just a little longer.”

Translation of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 81 by Indra Translations.

Inside the enormous cabinet, there was only a single item.

As I approached, a blast of icy air escaped from that compartment with far greater intensity than from any of the others.

I ran over to it.

Translation of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 81 by Indra Translations.

I put on one of the Raven Gloves Lieutenant Colonel Je Hyuno had lent me.

An Ice Dragon horn.

That horn, transparent like ice, gleamed with a sapphire hue reminiscent of the depths of the ocean.

At that moment, the dragon’s roar echoed throughout the chamber.

Translation of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 81 by Indra Translations.

The air itself seemed to grow thinner.

ROOOAAAR!!

At the same time, an unbearable pressure crashed down upon my entire body.

The roar shook the entire space.

Translation of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 81 by Indra Translations.

Under that debuff, I was completely unable to move.

And for a Chef, whose physical abilities were so poor, it was even more deadly.

It was the paralysis effect caused by the dragon’s roar.

Gravity became overwhelmingly heavy.

Translation of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 81 by Indra Translations.

A moment later, I heard Kwak Hanmuk’s voice in the distance.

I remained pressed against the glass of the ingredient storage, struggling to breathe.

A white light enveloped my body.

“Holy Purification!!”

Translation of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 81 by Indra Translations.

Thanks to the Holy Knight’s Purification Skill, the debuff disappeared.

I barely managed to stay on my feet.

The paralysis vanished instantly, and I nearly lost my balance.

Fortunately, the storage’s glass could be broken even with a Chef’s strength.

Then I picked up the item I had been searching for.

Large Blue Horn of the Ice Dragon: The horn of an ancient Ice Dragon. canvas If ground into powder and sprinkled over a dish, it grants it a supreme flavor. arch Its large size makes it especially valuable.

I took a Meat Tenderizer out of my inventory and smashed the glass.

Translation of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 81 by Indra Translations.

I hugged the enormous horn with one arm, nearly as large as my own body.

It was an indispensable item for defeating the Fire Dragon.

The instant it touched my skin, such intense cold coursed through me that even my hair stood on end.

But the scorching heat filling the entire chamber made it bearable.

Translation of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 81 by Indra Translations.

But I couldn’t find a single Fire Dragon horn.

I quickly scanned the endless ingredient cabinets.

Holding the massive frozen horn tightly against my chest to calm my racing heartbeat, I started running again.

Translation of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 81 by Indra Translations.

The captains were skillfully leaping from one small platform to another above the lava as they eliminated the Hellfire Lizards and Hellfire Hounds.

And Lieutenant Colonel Je Hyuno.

Then I checked on the battle.

That meant the twins were still alive.

Translation of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 81 by Indra Translations.

The gigantic Fire Dragon was unable to retaliate.

He moved his six metallic wings freely, attacking and retreating with incredible speed.

He was tearing the Fire Dragon apart like a completely deranged crow.

Translation of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 81 by Indra Translations.

The constant metallic clang never ceased.

It was the sound of his metal hand striking the dragon’s scales.

Its health continued to drop.

Translation of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 81 by Indra Translations.

Afterward, he relentlessly attacked the exposed areas beneath them.

The Fire Dragon bled from countless wounds.

Since even the metal hand had difficulty piercing those durable scales, Lieutenant Colonel Je Hyuno had simply chosen to rip them off.

Translation of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 81 by Indra Translations.

It looked like we would soon enter the third phase.

The number of Hellfire Hounds and Hellfire Lizards continuing to emerge from the lava began to decrease.

The Fire Dragon let out agonized roars.

Translation of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 81 by Indra Translations.

At most, we could endure only a few more minutes before we would literally be roasted alive by the heat of the Fire Dragon’s nest.

‘6 minutes and 12 seconds.’

The remaining duration of our buffs was becoming a concern.

Translation of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 81 by Indra Translations.

I heard the sound of chains sliding.

As I ran toward the position we had agreed on beforehand.

‘Chains? arrow There aren’t any hook mechanics in the second phase…’

We had to defeat it as quickly as possible.

Translation of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 81 by Indra Translations.

Strands of pale pink hair swayed beneath the light.

At that instant, I looked up.

Hanging from those hooks.

Two hooks were descending from the ceiling.

Translation of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 81 by Indra Translations.

But their two small bodies immediately fell.

I took a step toward them to rush to their rescue.

Straight.

Were the twins.

Translation of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 81 by Indra Translations.

Into the Fire Dragon’s enormous open jaws.
