“Yes! Okay!”
“I have already cleaned up my weapon!”
“I can test out my hands after a long time! Huh.”
The gang replied to Pain’s cry.
Hearing the answers, he went inside the room to get his two axes, his armor, and then took the lead while the rest of the gang followed.
…
[Level Up!]
[Item acquired: Poison Frog Feet x3.]
“I leveled up again.”
“What, again?”
Yeon Jeung asked Soo Hyuk back in surprise.
It was because Soo Hyuk had levelled up just 4 minutes ago. Soo Hyuk made a crescent smile at Yeon Jeung.
‘If I arrive at the Enchanted Forest, I can open an attribute once again.’
The current level of Soo Hyuk was 323.
He wasn’t intensively hunting, just those he came across.
Nevertheless he has leveled up more than 20 times.
Soo Hyuk did know that there were monsters on the way but this was too fast.
At this speed, it seems he will be able to unlock a new attribute by reaching level 400 when he reaches the Enchanted Forest.
While Soo Hyuk was thinking about it, the Children of Darkness, who were hunting monsters in the vicinity, returned.
‘As soon as they disappear, I resummon them.’
He really liked the <Child of Darkness> skill.
He should have unlocked the dark attribute first, not fire.
He felt that he had to say this.
“Look over there.”
Soo Hyuk, who was looking at the Children of Darkness, raised his head at Yeon Jeung’s call.
There was a tree where Yeon Jeung was pointing at, it was taller and redder than other trees.
“That is the tree I was talking about.”
“Then we will arrive at the Lake in another 20 minutes?”
“Huh, maybe 10 minutes with the current speed?”
In the past, it took 20 minutes because of the careful movements he had to make due to monsters, but now he didn’t need to be careful.
It wouldn’t take as long as 20 minutes like in the past.
It was then.
Swoosh!
The Children of Darkness who were escorting Soo Hyuk from front and behind, disappeared into the bush as if a monster appeared.
They would come back after cleaning up. Looking at it, the monsters would have probably respawned.
[Item Acquired: Kranus’ Token]
However, Soo Hyuk was forced to stop due to the appearance of the Drop Window.
He thought that the Children of Darkness went to the bushes because the monsters had respawned but that was not the case.
“….What is it?”
Yeon Jeung asked Soo Hyuk as he had stopped walking.
[Item acquired: Kranus’ Token x2]
Meanwhile the Drop Window updated and Soo Hyuk replied while looking at it.
“Kranus’s Token was dropped.”
“…..Dropped?”
“Huh. It seems like members of Kranus are nearby.”
There was not one but two drops and the Children of Darkness were yet to return.
The Drop Window updated once again during his conversation and now there were three tokens.
“It would be better to deal with them in advance. What do you think?”
Yeon Jeung thought about Soo Hyuk’s question.
‘It would be better to deal with them because of the nature of Heaven’s Lake.’
Periodic natural disasters occur at Heaven’s Lake.
They had to focus on the Natural disasters and there was no reason for them to have someone on their tails.
Moreover, the ones on their tails were Murderers, even more so a group like Kranus.
“I think it would be better to deal with them and then move forward.”
Yeon Jeung finished thinking and replied.
“Okay then let’s wait till they come back.”
Soo HYuk nodded his head, turned back and looked at the bush.
[Item acquired: Kranus’ Token x4]
[Item acquired: Kranus’ Token x5]
[Level up!]
The Children of Darkness steadily killed Kranus’ members.
“How is it going?”
Yeon Jeung asked while looking at the bush and not knowing the situation.
“They got 6.”
[Item acquired: Kranus Token x7] “Now 7.”
Soo Hyuk opened the quest window while giving answers to Yeon Jueng.
<Wisdom of the Killer [Epic]>
Meet the conditions below and then you will be able to obtain the Wisdom of the Killer.
[Kill: 84/100]
Quest Reward: Wisdom Stat Enhancement
The kill count was sharply rising.
‘How many people of Kranus have come here?’
‘Are there enough to complete the quest?’
Soo Hyuk closed the quest window while hoping that he could strengthen his wisdom.
[Item acquired: Kranus’ Token x8]
[Item acquired: Kranus’ Token x9]
He smiled while the Drop Window was continuously updated.
Throck!
It was then.
Jumnle!
A man appeared through the bushes. He was a man with slender arms.
“It’s you guys!!”
The man smiled and threw an axe. It cut through the wind and flew straight towards them.
Shh
Yeon Jeung quickly took up the shield and blocked for Soo Hyuk standing in front of him.
Ore!
The axe burst as it collided with the shield and there was a loud noise.
It did block it but as one can predict from the sound, the axe had a lot of power.
‘I blocked it with the Shield but still took 7000 damage.”
Yeon Jeung stepped back and said while swallowing.
“Heal!”
Soo Hyuk first cast Heal on Yeon Jeung.
“You are the ones who killed my brothers?”
The identity of the man turned out to be Pain, The Butcher.
Pain had regained his appetite while watching Soo Hyuk and Yeon Jeung with an excited expression. He was surprised when Yeon Jeung had blocked the axe with his shield.
“If it’s Pain then isn’t he that NPC?”
Soo Hyuk asked Yeon Jeung.
“Huh.”
Yeon Jeung nodded.
Thrust! Thrust! Thrust! I think you should take a look at ραΠdαsnovel.cοm
In the meantime, more members of Kranus’ began appearing from the bushes.
‘8 people…’
There were eight people including Pain.
‘Is this the end?’
No one else appeared and Soo Hyuk looked at the Drop Window.
[Item acquired: Kranus’ Token x13]
‘Thirteen people were killed, and if I kill the 8 people here.’ Soo Hyuk did the calculations.
‘There are two less people.’
Even if everyone was killed, it was only 98.
It was impossible to complete the Quest <Wisdom of the Killer.>
Soo Hyuk opened his mouth with a regretful look.
“Is that everyone?”
“What? Do you think we can’t win unless everyone appears?”
Pain responded to Soo Hyuk and other members of Kranus giggled.
Swoosh
In the meantime, two more people broke through the bushes.
“!!!”
Soo Hyuk smiled seeing the two new arrivals.
‘If I defeat them all then it will be done.’
“Yeon Jeung, I will kill them all. I think I can complete the quest.”
Soo Hyuk said to Yeon Jeung quietly.
“Okay. I will only defend you.”
During the conversation, the Children of Darkness appeared from the bushes.
The return of the Children of Darkness meant that this was everyone.
He needed to kill them all.
Pick! Pick!
Soon the Children of Darkness, who had arrived, spewed thorns at Kranus’ members. They couldn’t defend against it and their hearts were pierced because they were paying attention to Yeon Jeung and Soo Hyuk.
The two guys who were pierced, opened their eyes wide simultaneously.
[ED Note: The translation originally was, “opened their eyes wide as if they had agreed on it” but I changed it to simultaneously as it made more sense. I think what the author was going for here was that they opened their eyes wide at the same time as if they had agreed to do so beforehand.]
Plump! [Item acquired: Kranus’ Token x14]
[Item acquired: Kranus’ Token x15]
And as the thorns disappeared, they fell one by one.
“Huh?”
“What is that?”
The sound of their falling caught the attention of the other members and they became alert upon finding the Children of Darkness.
But the Children of Darkness approached them regardless of whether they were vigilant or not.
“Brother?”
“Is there something weird over there?”
Everyone except Pain was embarrassed.
“It must be a magic they used.”
Pain responded and immediately started running towards Yeon Jeung and Soo Hyuk.
ραndαsnοvεl.cοm “Poison Storm.”
However, Soo Hyuk was faster.
If there were more people, he would have waited but there were no more.
With the intention of getting them in one shot, Soo Hyuk cast Poison Storm.
Wow!
The Kranus members who tried throwing things at the Children of Darkness and Pain, who ran towards Yeon Jeung and Soo Hyuk, were engulfed in Poison Storm.
That was it!
[Level Up!]
[Item acquired: Kranus’ Token x23]
[Item acquired: Pain, The Butcher’s Head.]
[Item acquired: Pain, The Butcher’s Axe.]
A level up message appeared followed by a Drop Window.
‘Head?’
Seeing the Drop Window, Soo Hyuk frowned.
It wasn’t a monster’s head but a human head.
‘Why did it drop suddenly?’
‘Its for a quest.’
Soo Hyuk, who was wondering what it would be used for, checked the information and learned that it was related to a quest.
“I have to stop by the Bounty Office once.”
The place where he could get the bounty was the Bounty Office of the Fade Kingdom.
Soo Hyuk decided to stop by the Bounty Office after this journey and receive the quest.
“Are you done?”
Soo Hyuk, who was thinking while looking at the item information, answered Yeon Jeung’s question and closed his inventory.
“Yes. It’s over.”
Yeon Jeung was secretly worried.
‘Should I become a wizard?’
He had become a tanker. Yeon Jeung knew very well that he had come too far to start once again.
However, looking at what Soo Hyuk was doing, he was seriously worried about it.
To some extent. Soo Hyuk’s strength was special.
Soo Hyuk, unaware of Yeon Jeun’s thoughts, simply opened the quest window with a happy face.
<Wisdom of the Killer [Epic]>
Meet the conditions below and then you will be able to obtain the Wisdom of the Killer.
[Kill: 100/100]
Quest Reward: Wisdom Stat Enhancement
He pressed the confirm button while looking at the achieved conditions.
[You have completed the quest <Wisdom of the Killer.>]
[Wisdom Stat gains an additional effect.]
[Magic Penetration will rise according to Wisdom.]
‘Again?’
Just like the Wisdom of the Dragon, this also strengthened Magic Penetration.
‘No matter the Magic Defense, wouldn’t I hit and break through everything?’
It had already been strengthened twice.
Although there are specific figures displayed, considering the current wisdom, the Magic Penetration will rise tremendously and the target’s Magic Defence would be penetrated easily.
“Are you done?”
Yeon Jeung asked while looking at the Poison Storm.
“Yes. The Magic Penetration has increased.”
“Again?”
“Huh. Let’s go.”
After closing the quest window, Soo Hyuk took the lead and started walking. In addition the Children of Darkness followed.
After some time.
[You have entered Heaven’s Lake]
Soo Hyuk and Yeon Jeung were able to arrive at the beautiful Heaven’s Lake.
Soo Hyuk exclaimed at the sight.
Even though it’s a sea, the bottom is so incredible.
A huge invisible lake with crystal clear water.
Cool Wind.
Just standing there made him feel refreshed.
The steamy feeling of the Damp Wetlands disappeared at once.
