Rebirth of the Strongest Dungeon Master-Chapter 141 Melody
From beyond the darkness, Isaac saw how the wedding party turned into a massacre. The monsters he sent devoured dozens of drunken hunters. There was no expression on his face at all.
It was as if the incident was a natural occurrence.
Byakko was also watching. Her crescent-like eyes reflected the battle that was taking place. After observing for a while, he sensed something strange. The monsters sent by Isaac seemed weaker than the drunken hunter. It would have been easier to annihilate them if he had sent stronger monsters.
This astonished Byakko. For a demon like Isaac, there was no way he would be careless with something so simple.
"My lord. After I saw the battle, the hunters seemed stronger than the monsters. I'm not saying that our monsters won't win against them, but why would you do that?"
Isaac just smiled. "You'll see."
Of course, her master's answer left her curious. By now, she was convinced that Isaac had ulterior motives for this sudden attack.
So, Byakko waited for an answer while watching the battle.

"What?"
Zhang Gang looked wide-eyed. Seeing the high elf's look made him wonder. With the situation in such a mess, the woman was smiling. Besides, there was something else that bothered him more.
Adelia was holding his face.
"Listen, Mr. Zhang Gang. Tonight the live of the hunters depends on you. You have to help them, do you understand?"
The middle-aged man did not understand. He had already entered into an agreement with Isaac to protect his dungeon. The dungeon master said that this party was prepared for him. But why were hundreds of monsters attacking him during the party.
Was he being framed? 𝑓𝘳ℯ𝒆w𝘦𝘣𝙣𝘰ѵ𝘦𝚕.c𝗼𝓶
"Aren't all monsters controlled by the dungeon master. I promised I'd clean up his dungeon from leecher. But why did he attack? My men are still-"
SLAP
Adelia slapped him on the cheek. Only then did the man shut his mouth.
"I understand that there are many questions in your head right now. But we don't have time for that. The stage is set for you. Now, it's time for you to take the spotlight."
Zhang Gang put on a confused face. He was getting more and more clueless.
Adeliah sighed. "You and your man are guaranteed not to die in this battle. Trust me."
Without the middle-aged man realizing it, light escaped from her hand and entered his temple.
Zhang Gang nodded. "Alright, I understand."
The high elf smiled. "Good. Now show me your strength."
Suddenly after being assured by the beautiful elf, he felt power flowing inside his body. That man dove off the balcony without a second thought.
Zhang Gang drew his sword while striking his sword against his chest. The clash of metal echoed. The hunters's attention was drawn to him.
Especially the warriors of the Blood Oath.
"Everyone! Stay calm! Don't run. Those who are still sober grab your weapons and fight. The healers and casters take the drunk into the treehouse. Get them sober as soon as possible!"
"Yooooh!!!"
The hunters answered in unison.
Zhang Gang quickly jumped into the dozens of monsters that were swarming. A bunch of orcs and hobgoblins attacked him simultaneously, but the man brutally slashed every incoming monster into two pieces.
Splat! Splat! Splat!
He broke through to the front of the line. Together with his men, they fought off waves of monsters. It was typical of the Blood Oath guild to fight relying on brute force.
Although Zhang Gang and his men tried to withstand the onslaught of monsters, there were still many human casualties. Most of them were in an unconscious state.
There were dozens of goblins and kobolds sneaking into the battle. They were targeting the unconscious hunters. Some of the monsters chased the caster and healer who were pulling the hunter into the treehouse. Since they weren't fighters, most of them were killed by the goblins.
The healers were completely devoid of melee combat abilities being swarmed by dozens of goblins. While marksmen and casters had no preparation time to cast spells or use skills.
They were easy targets for the monsters.
It took some time for Zhang Gang to realize the situation. That man was too busy slaughtering orcs, lycans, and some werelions in the front row. When he turned his head, dozens of his people had become corpses.
"Damn it! Send some hunters to protect them!"
Dozens of hunters in armor with ornaments began to change their targets. They moved back and attacked the goblins and kobolds.
A few hunters remained in the vanguard and Blood Oath withstood the onslaught of monsters.
From the top of the balcony, Adelia watched the course of the battle. Her eyes combed every corner of the village hall grounds, making sure none of the residents were involved in the battle.
Suddenly, a shard of light appeared out of thin air and transformed into a little girl.
"Yo!!!"
Pippi greeted excitedly.
Adelia smiled while bowing her head to welcome the dungeon manager. She did so not because she needed to honor her, but she knew that the little girl would like to be treated with respect.
Adelia liked Pippi.
"How may I help you, my lady?" she asked in a playful tone.
The dungeon manager smiled broadly. She stroked her nose with her finger while puffing out her chest.
"You don't have to act like that to Pippi, hehe. If my lord finds out, he might punish you."
Adelia chuckled.
"Pippi, did the lord order anything?"
The little girl nodded. "If the number of casualties has reached over three-fifths of the quota, you must help those pitiful humans."
"Understood."
The high elf's attention was then drawn to the battle.
The Blood Oath Guild's hunters seemed to be trying their hardest. They not only held the vanguard, but also chased after the sneaking monsters. They were doing double duty from the battle.
Of course, among them, the one who seemed to be struggling the most was Zhang Gang. As the leader, as well as the face of the Blood Oath, he had to look dashing. The morale of his men depended on him.
If he was savage, his men would also be savage. And vice versa.
Zhang Gang was the core of the battle.
"Everyone! Don't go red!"
The man roared in the middle of the battle. He said the same phrase over and over again.
However, the situation seemed to be the opposite.
The longer the battle went on, the more they were beaten back. Dozens of orcs began to slaughter the exhausted hunters. Werelions raged in the midst of battle. Lycan targeted the wounded fighters.
The hunters were in no condition to excel. Although the monsters they fought were weak, being outnumbered put them under pressure.
"Kuaaarrrggh!"
"No!!!"
"Blyat!"
The cries of pain from the hunters began to rise in the air.
Zhang Gang realized the situation could not last much longer. Even if he tried to fight with all his might together with his men, they would not be enough to face this endless wave of monsters. They were only buying time.
The mighty man began to bite his lip. He was running out of options. His options now were to leave Elven Village and rescue his men, but at the risk of being hunted down by the dungeon master. Or fight to the end, trusting the dungeon master completely, with the possibility of being betrayed.
"Damn it... Why is this happening..."
Zhang Gang began to regret his decision.
In such a moment of despair, suddenly a melodious chant rang through the air. Instantly, the hunters stopped swinging their weapons. The monsters were stunned. All attention was focused on the source of the sound. They all looked towards the balcony.
"This melody..."
"So melodious... the song of heaven..."
"Am I dead?"
Adelia floated in the air and her body emitted a bright light. She sang with great passion. Her soft melody hypnotized every being who heard it.
But the magic didn't stop there. The hunters who had passed out from drunkenness woke up. They slowly got up while rubbing their eyes, then looked up at the balcony.
Everything in the village hall was affected by her magic.
Not except Zhang Gang.
The man who always appeared brutal and ferocious in battle suddenly softened. He even shed tears as the melodious singing touched him.
Until finally, he heard Adelia's whispering voice in his head.
"Mr. Zhang Gang. Return to battle. I've made the opportunity."
Instantly, the man came to his senses from the insinuating chant. He slapped his face repeatedly. He also saw that the hunters who had fainted had woken up.
A smile bloomed on his face. The opportunity to win appeared.
CLANK! CLANK! CLANK!
Zhang Gang hit his chest with a sword. The sound of metal clashing drew the attention of the hunters. While strangely, the monsters were still hypnotized by Adelia's singing.
"Stop daydreaming! It's time for us to fight!"
For a while, the hunters were still confused. Especially those who had just woken up from a stupor. After seeing dozens of monsters surrounding them, they came to their senses.
The hunters quickly got up and drew their swords.
"Attack!"
The Blood Oath Guild Leader's scream started the battle. Dozens of hunters charged at the hypnotized monsters.
In a matter of seconds, bloodshed ensued.
"Kill them!"
"Don't let them get away!"
Since the monsters were basically low-class monsters, it didn't take long for the hunters to change the flow of the battle.
The monsters were slaughtered.
The goblins tried to escape while screaming. The orcs were overrun by dozens of hunters. Werelions were burned to ashes by casters. The lycans who were predators were slaughtered like sheep.
They retreated.
However, the humans hunted them down. There is no mercy for them. Not a single monster was let off the hook.
Zhang Gan was the one running at the front.
"Don't let them get away!"
The man had been consumed by emotion. He would take advantage of this to avenge the dungeon master.
Unfortunately, the situation always changed quickly.
BAM! BAM! BAM!
Dozens of lightning bolts struck from the sky. The hunters were forced to stop the chase. Some of them were struck by lightning and burned.
Zhang Gang only cursed inwardly.
"Bastard! Who cast the lightning magic!"
The Blood Oath Guild leader was furious. His face turned bright red.
However, his anger did not last long. Instead, his expression turned pale.
The figure of a masked man floated above the sky. His hair blazed like black flames. He was like a god descending from the sky. All the monsters hid behind him.
It didn't take long for Zhang Gang to realize who it was.
The dungeon master arrived in battle!
