Zank did not delay at all.

Thuud!

He knelt down and bowed in a hurry.

“Zank of the Heavenly Spear Masters says his greetings again! I give my greetings to the Legend of the Continent, the Father of all the Spear Masters, Ghost Spear Ben!”

“You finally learnt some manners.”

Then, Minhyuk said......

“Senior. That’s quite rude to others. Please let him get up.”

Ben laughed as he scratched his head in embarrassment.

“I’m just being silly. Boy, stand up.”

“Yes? N, no it’s fine......!”

“Stand. Up.”

Fwoosh!

Zank immediately stood up as if he had seen a ghost. Once he was standing, Old Man Ben turned towards Minhyuk and laughed as he said to him.....

“I already made him stand up. It’s fine now, right?”

He looked like he was telling Minhyuk ‘I did a good job, right? So compliment me!’.

“Aigoo. You did~ well~!”

“Hohoho. Thanks.”

Crow was muttering something to himself while he watched Old Man Ben talk happily with Minhyuk.

“Ben...... Ben...... Where did I hear that name...... Ghost Spear Ben......”

Crow continued to mull over the familiar sounding name as well as Zank’s violent reaction. After thinking about it for quite some time, he suddenly jumped up in shock.

“The Ouroboros Hunter Ben......!”

Crow’s eyes grew the size of the saucers.

Ouroboros! It was a snake with a size that was comparable to the size of a dragon. It was a legendary monster and was estimated to be at around Lv500.

Crow’s job class was a Spear Master and he had heard about Ben from an NPC who had changed his job class to a legendary job class.

‘You’re really a great Spear Master.’

‘Crow. Do you believe me when I say that there’s a better Spear Master on top of me?’

‘......?!’

‘In the past, Ghost Spear Ben had successfully hunted an Ouroboros that had swallowed a whole village down.’

“What’s wrong Crow? Who’s that old man?”

Genie couldn’t understand why Zank and Crow both had strong reactions towards Old Man Ben. Crow quickly gathered his thoughts before speaking up.

“That person is just like a legend. The Continent’s Thousand Heavenly Spear Masters or even the Hundred Heavenly Spear Masters are all like a child in front of that old man, Genie.”

Crow shook his head in disbelief.

“Perhaps we have gotten ourselves a ridiculously strong vassal right now.”

“......!”

Genie’s face was colored with surprise as she turned her head to look at Minhyuk and the old man.

“Did you kill the Ouroboros?”

“Killed it.”

“Where did it go?”

“I broke it up and sold it.”

“But it would have been delicious if we made it into some snake wine......!”

“I did not think of that! Do you want me to catch one now?”

He might be a bit weird but he’s the best vassal that we could ask for.

America’s Black Swan Guild, the third in the guild rankings in America, was gaining a lot of attention globally after they surpassed the 45-minute threshold in the Time Attack Dungeon.

In particular, this Time Attack Dungeon was happening in Athenae and the only restrictions for them to be admitted was that they needed to be ‘only three people’ and ‘can only enter 5 times per day’. In addition, there were various things that were added up to finalize the rank like final clear time as well as damage inflicted.

Black Swan had currently achieved an S-rank for the first time.

“Can we ask you a question Mr. Michael?”

Michael was being surrounded by reporters all over. He was God Baveka’s Child, Julian, in the game. Although his name was quite similar to a woman’s he was definitely a straight, white male.

“In all honesty, I heard that there were quite a lot of ways to raise Holy Power. But the limits and restrictions are clear and definite. That’s why we want to know how Mr. Michael has achieved an astounding 1,500 Holy Power?”

Michael gave a wry smile when he heard their question.

“I just completed a variety of services and activities for God Baveka.”

“Activities...... I heard that these activities and services were horrible in nature, is that true?”

Each and every reporter present knew for a fact that the services performed for God could truly raise their Holy Powers. However, these acts and services were all inhumane and impossible to do.

“That’s right. Every day I had to bow a thousand times towards God Baveka. Then, I had to keep silent inside the game for over a month. I was also only allowed to eat hard bread and wine given to me in Baveka’s Sanctuary. I was not allowed to hunt any monsters. I also was not allowed to sleep for 5 days and was only tasked to pray to God Baveka.”

“It’s...... Is that really what you did?”

Michael just smiled silently.

Click, click, click, click, click, click, click!

The camera flashed endlessly while the reporters were all left speechless with what they had heard. But based on Michael’s personality they could deduce that he might not have been silent for only a month. Perhaps he had already started to stop talking from the moment he became God Baveka’s Child.

Also, the hard bread that he had mentioned was literally the bread that was served during service in Baveka’s Sanctuary. However this bread was very dry and stale and was really just not fit for consumption.

And he even had to pray for 5 days straight without any sleep... Would anyone do that patiently? And it was even done inside the game. Was there anyone in their right mind who would do something like that inside the game? It was definitely something that a normal person would do.

“You’re really amazing. I’m truly speechless.”

Clap, clap, clap!

The reporters all clapped at his dedication.

Then, one of the reporters said......

[The Time Limit for your attack is 2 hours. You will not be allowed entry if you fail to clear the dungeon.]

Minhyuk had heard a lot about this before he entered the dungeon. He knew that the Time Attack Dungeon was a repetitive dungeon so all they had to do was target their enemies better and narrow down the time as much as they could.

And they only had three times left to attack. The first out of the three tries left was set for Minhyuk to adapt and gain a better understanding of the dungeon.

Locke rushed directly towards the cursed dragon.

[Crazy Priest’s Heal.]

[Continuous bleeding will be triggered. There’s also a 20% probability of placing the enemy under an abnormal state.]

Locke had to try for a quite some time before succeeding in his attack since the cursed dragon had a tremendous defense. Khan and Locke struggled fiercely before they successfully killed the dragon.

“Did you see? They’re really strong.”

“Hmm......”

Minhyuk nodded his head. He was originally on his way to a Lv300 hunting ground but he only felt his situation when he arrived at a Lv450 hunting ground.

The next one to appear was the Ghoul King. The 3m tall Ghoul King immediately launched a poison attack towards them.

“At this point, you have to drink the detoxification potion!”

[You have inhaled the poison of the Ghoul King.]

[You have an invincible body that can ignore and resist all abnormal states.]

[You have resisted an abnormal state.]

“Oh. Really? Please give me a bottle!”

“Here.”

Khan hurriedly threw the detoxification potion to Minhyuk. He had complete resistance against abnormal states but he was thirsty so he still asked for a potion. But when he gulped it down......

“......Tastes bad!”

He firmly decided to never drink a detoxification potion ever again.

They kept on moving forward after dealing with the Ghoul King. At this time, Khan said......

“This is the third point. This is the second most agonizing place after the Dullahan King since there are a lot of monsters that flock in this area. The toughest thing in here is getting past through them in the shortest amount of time.”

Khan continued his explanation.

“We’re having a hard time since Locke and I don’t have any area of attack skills. If we had an area of attack skill then it would be easy to clear this point.”

“I have an area of attack skill. Should I try it once?”

“Oh. You have an area of attack skill?”

Locke and Khan turned towards each other. They knew that Minhyuk could exert a tremendous amount of power when he was dealing with a single person so they both had great expectations towards his skill.

Khan hurriedly drove back the cursed dragons and wrathful specters that prevented them from moving further inside.

“Try it.”

In fact they were just excited but they did not expect too much. Even if Minhyuk had a x2 increase on his attack power, this place was still difficult for someone of his level.

Minhyuk stepped forward after hearing their consent. Then, the next moment, the space was torn apart as a sword imprinted with a Phoenix appeared.

[You have summoned the Ancient Water Dragon Barraca’s Greatsword.]

Minhyuk quickly grabbed the grip of the sword.

Shwaaaaaaaaa!

A red current surrounded Minhyuk’s body. It fluttered around him like ashes floating from an ember.

“Keuhahahaha. Doesn’t Minhyuk look cool?!”

Locke laughed loudly as he blocked the mobs that tried to get closer to Minhyuk. Then, he saw Minhyuk slam the greatsword down on the ground.

Stab!

“Deep (Burst).”

[Blooming Sword. Deep (Burst).]

[A sword will indiscriminately rise from the ground and attack your enemies within 8m from your position. It will cause a penetrative explosion that will have an additional 70% damage.]

There were hundreds of swords that rose from the ground.

Stab!

Stab!

Stab!

Stab!

Stab!

The swords immediately stabbed straight through the bodies of the monsters. And once it stabbed at them......

Bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang!

The monsters exploded in one go!

Plop, plop, plop!

Plop, plop, plop, plop, plop, plop━

Plop, plop, plop!

More than 40 monsters that blocked their way in front exploded in an instant.

“......”

“......”

Locke was frozen in shock as he stared at the place where the monsters exploded. Then, he turned towards Minhyuk and asked......

“What’s your level?”

“291.”

Locke was at Lv437.

“Y, yeah......”

Khan and Locke suddenly bowed their heads as they both looked down at the ground. Not long after, Locke raised his head as he stared at a faraway place in a daze as he murmured something.

“I suddenly miss my mom......”

TL’s corner!

I was almost finishing this when I checked 161 and saw that my file did not save online and now the changes I have made in 161 disappeared. AHHHHH I’m so frustrated. That’s 10 pages worth of words. I’m so sad.
