35 I Choose You!

This was the second time that he had entered a legendary dungeon.

Whenever you enter a hidden dungeon, hidden field, a new city, a new frontier or a legendary area then you will naturally be rewarded. But in his case, since he was just temporarily sent by Balzarc to choose his monster, his reward ended at the 50 reputation increase.

However, the 50 reputation points were already a huge benefit since this was the average reputation points that users at Lv100 have.

Minhyuk looked around his surroundings.

“Oh. It seems like there are a lot of delicious looking kids in here.”

Minhyuk was in awe.

There was a monster that was silently floating in the air above him.

It was a giant monkfish.

Minhyuk licked his lips. He was thinking about spicy steamed monkfish! Whenever he went to a restaurant that served this dish, he would always order this.

‘Should I eat the monkfish or the bean sprouts first?’

If you ordered a spicy steamed monkfish then there would definitely be a heaping amount of bean sprouts in your serving. However, such a dish was extremely expensive. But Minhyuk believed that such a dish was worthy of its price. The monkfish would be so plump and juicy just like chicken meat, and if you added some of the spicy sauce together with the crunchy bean sprouts then the taste would definitely blow your mind away.

Minhyuk couldn’t tell what kind of monster the giant monkfish was. To eat something delicious, he brushed up his knowledge and studied about different monsters but there was no information about such a monster at all. In other words, this was an undiscovered monster. As for whether he would choose it as his pet... Minhyuk shook his head.

‘I can only check the information twice!’

Looking around, he was able to see plenty of monsters that he had never seen before. This meant that most of the monsters residing in this place were undiscovered monsters. And even looking at the most common monsters in this place, he could see that there were epic and legendary monsters among them.

Minhyuk quickly moved in search of his pet.

The crickets were chirping loudly as the rays of the moon shone brightly over them.

“Heok, heok.”

“Haaa, haaa.”

Someone was breathing heavily as if he just ran from something scary.

A user named Lute sighed in relief as he looked behind him.

‘I think they finally left me alone. Phew......’

Lute was a pretty high-leveled user. Even though he wasn’t on the top, he could still say that he was part of the list of top rankers with his Lv365 character. He was an archer, the character with a bow behind his back.

He looked at the man standing next to him.

“Your highness, I think we’ve lost them for now.”

He hurriedly said this as he bowed his head to avoid meeting his eyes. He was tasked to escort and deliver this man by someone.

Varen, the Northern Continent’s Valkyrie Kingdom’s king, nodded his head.

The Valkyrie Kingdom in the Northern Continent!

The northern continent was still an unexplored land swarming with monsters. It was a land that had not yet been pioneered yet. In addition, the northern continent was located between the Eivelis Empire and Cordis Empire.

Currently, both empires were giving their all to enter and carve out a place for them in the northern continent. And in that process, they discovered an amazing kingdom in the northern continent. That kingdom was none other than the Valkyrie Kingdom.

The Valkyrie Kingdom was a kingdom that was blessed by the god Juis. Their kingdom was protected by the monsters that were swarming all over the northern continent. Because of that, they were able to stand firmly and resolutely even in places that were teeming with vicious monsters.

However, not too long ago, the soldiers of the Valkyrie Kingdom encountered the subjugation forces that were sent by the Eivelis Empire while they were patrolling outside. The Sword Emperor Ellie was greatly amazed by the fact that a kingdom existed in the northern continents.

Varen realized that his kingdom would still face collapse even if the god Juis protected and blessed his people so he decided to reach out towards the Eivelis Empire and went out with his troops.

However, the moment they entered the borders of the Eivelis Empire, they were suddenly ambushed in a raid! In other words, Varen and Lute were the only survivors of this ambush. Only the king and a member of the royal court were left after an attack!

‘Ah. We’re fXcked.’

Lute frowned. Even if they were left alone for now, they would still be cornered once they continued the siege.

“I’m parched.”

“Here, have some water. Your highness.”

He gave Varen a water bottle and sighed deeply.

‘Damn. I’m sure that the users from the other empire had received these quests.’

Perhaps they were users from the enemy empire of the Eivelis Empire, the Cordis Empire.

There were a large number of users in that ambush. It may be because they did not want the Eivelis Empire and the Valkyrie Kingdom to join hands. In addition, if they were able to capture King Varen alive....

King Varen was a master in terms of the geography of the northern continent!

In addition, the exact location of the Valkyrie Kingdom was still unknown therefore they would definitely capture him alive and try to target and get huge rewards from him.

Right now, Lute was looking at his quest window.

The Hatchling woke up from its sleep and tilted his head to look at Minhyuk. Then it snorted as it continued to glare at him.

Minhyuk walked away with a thoughtful expression on his face. He only had one chance left. He continuously kept an eye on all of the monsters that he had encountered. This way, he would be able to at least now a bit about them.

As he kept on walking, Minhyuk saw an animal among them.

“A pig?”

It was literally a pig. A little baby piggy that was as big as a fist!

The little white pig sniffed around, picked something out and ate it. Then, it smiled happily as it bent and stretched its knee as if it was dancing to a rhythm.

“Oink, oink!”

It looked like it was saying ‘Delicious food is the best! Oink!’.

Minhyuk looked at it strangely.

“What’s this? Why am I so happy to see it?”

This is strange. Why am I feeling so happy just by looking at this pig?

Then, he smiled softly and...

“What the hell...... I’m smiling like a dad...... heok!”

Am I feeling a sense of kinship with a pig?

He denied the reality in front of him.

“I’m not fat anymore, I’m just chubby? Why can I feel a deep sense of camaraderie with it?”

This was Minhyuk who firmly believed that he was already in the chubby category since he went from 170kg to 160kg!

He turned his head away without any hesitations and quickly walked away.

Then, he laughed happily and took out food from his inventory since he was hungry. It was a hotdog with catsup and mayonnaise on it!

“Delicious!”

It was a combination of crispy bread with sausage hidden in it and sweet cayonnaise!

Minhyuk opened his mouth wide and bit on it.

At that moment...

“Oooink?”

“......?”

Minhyuk was quite taken aback.

He thought that he needed to speed things up so he used Ellie’s Swordsmanship to increase his speed and look at the monsters along the way. This was because his time was limited. He even used Step to quickly move and cover a large distance.

But it was extremely quick. From such a long distance, the pig had arrived in front of him. It even looked up at him with its large bright eyes.

“Ooooooooooink......?”

It looked at him pitifully and blinked its eyes at him.

It was like it was telling him......

Please give me just one bite. Oink......

Just like that.

Minhyuk grinned at it.

“What a cunning piggy! I won’t give you food just because of that!”

The pig did not know anything but Minhyuk really wouldn’t easily give his food just because it was cute.

Soon, the pig looked a bit sullen and depressed. It bowed its head and cried sadly.

“Ooooiiiiink......”

Minhyuk’s heart shook for a moment. This was because he understood a hungry man’s heart more than anybody else! However, he laughed.

“My god! A baby piggy is trying to hook the world’s greatest pig Kang Minhyuk into giving him food!”

In the end, he still admitted to being a pig.

“I won’t give you!”

Then he bit on the hotdog until there was only half left.

At that moment...

The pig that was a bit sullen suddenly stood up. The tears that were making its eyes shine suddenly disappeared.

Twitch!

It glared at Minhyuk as it cracked its neck sideways as if it was loosening it. And its expression was like...

‘So this doesn’t work, huh? Oink.’

“......”

Minhyuk was completely dumbfounded.

TL’s corner!!!

Heh. Their fate is already determined. That will be the pet. I call it. Kek. They have the same attitude too! Kek. So cute this piggy.

PR’s corner!

So the pig knows how to run a con? Why do I get the feeling Minhyuk will try and have the pig use this to get more food?
