The Ice Witch was estimated to be at Lv370. In the first place, players exceeding Lv400 could not enter the island so it was only natural that the boss monster did not exceed this level cap.

[Britney’s Flame Blast.]

[A powerful blast of flame will extinguish the enemies in one breath.]

Hwaaaaaaaak!

The flames that bursted out of Britney’s mouth burned the yetis and the other ice monsters. But at that exact same moment, a blue light formed at the mouth of the Ice Dragon.

[The Ice Dragon’s Wrath.]

[A cold force that could freeze everything will be released.]

Shwaaaaaaaak!

Crack, crack, crack, crack, crack!

Then......

Bang!

Crack, crack, crack, crack, crack!

Britney blocked the Ice Dragon’s Wrath with her entire body and her body was quickly covered with ice and frost.

“B, Britney. This bastard......!”

Black Dragon made eye contact with Britney. The two of them were talking with their eyes as she told him to achieve and finish what he wanted to do as fast as he could.

[Britney’s HP has fallen below 80%.]

[Britney’s HP has fallen below 70%.]

Nod.

Black Dragon made a mad dash towards his enemies.

[Ice Spear.]

Shwaaaaaa!

Dozens of sharp ice spears flew towards Black Dragon. At that moment, Britney, who was still getting frozen behind him, unleashed a towering black flame.

Puhaaaaaa!

Britney’s powerful flames had pushed back some of the freezing power that was covering her body while decreasing the speed and power of the incoming ice spears. Black Dragon took advantage of the moment and swiftly arrived in front of the Ice Witch Javis while brandishing his sword.

[The Merchant’s Sword Dance.]

[A swift and explosive sword dance that can easily deal damages to your enemies.]

Slash, slash, slash, slash!

Black Dragon’s sword dance unleashed swords that indiscriminately attacked Ice Witch Javis.

Clang, clang, clang━

“Kiiiyeeeeee!”

“Kyaaaaaaaak!”

Behind them, Britney and the Ice Dragon were locked in a fierce fight.

[Prison]

[A powerful blast of air that freezes everything.]

[Witch’s Mind Control]

[Slowly makes you fall into laziness and indolence.]

Black Dragon felt that the strength in his body was drained away for a moment while he was attacking. He felt like he did not want to do anything. Meanwhile, the skill Prison was starting to freeze his body all over.

Crack, crack, crack, crack━

[Your entire body is beginning to get frozen.]

[Your HP is dropping at a rapid rate.]

And Black Dragon, who had fallen in a state of indolence, did not want to move at all even though his body was starting to freeze all over. He just wanted to lie down and take a good long rest. Just as his eyes were about to close, he remembered the face of his son, Minhyuk. His son who had served him those delicious snow crabs a few days ago.

Bang, bang, bang━

The ice that was slowly forming on his body began to break and Black Dragon once again stood up and rose to his feet. He gritted his teeth as he dashed straight towards the Ice Witch.

“Hyaaaaaaaaaaa!”

He squeezed the remaining strength in his body as he slashed Javis from her head down to her toes.

Slaaaaaaaash!

Valhalla was a very small town with a population of 6,000 people. Genie and the rest of the Legend Guild members gathered in this small town.

The stronghold that the users had acquired could be promoted through the ‘Territory Experience’. This EXP could be increased through a variety of methods. An example of the methods would be winning the war against other guilds, developing special products or increasing the number of times users entered this place.

Even though Valhalla was only a small town with a population of 6,000 it was still the first ever granted territory in the newly pioneered Northern Continent and was meaningful in and of itself. In fact, even ‘small towns’ were extremely difficult to get so this was already a lot. Usually, when users are bestowed with a territory they would only be given a ‘village’. Promoting a village twice would give you a small town.

In addition, the monthly taxes that they could collect from the 6,000 people as well as the monster drops and special products from the soldiers who originally lived in Valhalla could give them profits. So if they did well in managing their territory, they could expect a profit of 50 platinum or more every month from a small town. However, this was only the case before the territory was promoted. If they were able to promote their territory, they estimated that they would be able to gain double that amount of money. This was why managing a territory was worth every penny.

And right now, Legend Guild was trying to entice and attract the users to go to Valhalla. Genie had been sitting inside the Valhalla’s Territory office while lost in her thoughts.

“It would be good if we had at least one summoner with good abilities and skills......”

Sadly, even though Legend Guild consisted of only the elites, there were no summoners among their ranks. Summoners possessed the ability to control the mobs down to the T but people with these job classes were conspicuous and did not go well with their guild operations. This was the reason why the guild did not have any skilled summoner among their ranks.

But if they were able to have at least one skilled summoner, then they would be able to reduce the damages to the other guild members during guild wars.

She looked through the guild chat while thinking about this problem.

[Guild Chatting Minhyuk: I have arrived at Valhalla. I’ll just go to my house and log out. I’ll come back later.]

Genie stood up from her seat and saw Locke and Khan at the nearby hunting grounds when she looked around.

“Where’s Minhyuk?”

“He’s at home right now.”

Minhyuk was a viscount both in name and reality. Therefore, a mansion was also set up for the viscount in Valhalla.

The three of them all moved towards his mansion. His mansion was large enough to cover at least 200 pyeong of land. Not long after they had arrived, a short boy opened the door for them. They could tell by his looks that he was an African boy.

“Hello.”

“Ah. Yes......”

But before he could do so, his movements stopped.

“Yo. Black Dragon ahjussi!”

“Wow...... For real? Callame’s Island? You really are crazy......”

There were more than ten people waiting for him. It was the Bachran Guild. The people in front of him included Balen and the party that he had seen last time.

‘I’m in trouble.’

Britney had just suffered from a serious injury while the Ice Dragon still needed to recover for a period of time.

He quickly tore the parchment that was on his hands.

[You have used the Commodity Protection Parchment.]

[When attacked by a Chaotic User, only one artifact can never be dropped.]

Black Dragon did not hesitate in his decisions.

‘Special Ice Fragment.’

[The Special Ice Fragment will not be dropped even if you are forced to logout.]

He could bear to lose any artifact, money or everything that he had on his body except for this.

Black Dragon drew his sword out.

Swooosh━

Then, he ran. However, the results were still disastrous. The number of the members of Bachran Guild that were after the tired and exhausted Black Dragon were too much for him to handle.

However, they couldn’t help but frown when there were no artifacts after killing Black Dragon.

‘Damn. I don’t think it’s possible to steal that if there’s no summoner......’

Just in case, they had brought the ‘Plundering Tamer’. The Plundering Tamer was a secret class. It was a rare class that could steal and loot other people’s tamed monsters. And he was a tamer that was associated with the Bachran Guild.

However, according to him, the tamed monster that Black Dragon had was a species that could not be looted at all.

‘Well. We should just continue to kill him, right? Hehehe.’

If we did that, then wouldn’t that Black Dragon drop a good artifact?

Balen smiled wickedly, completely unaware of the impending storm that was coming their way.

“You brat!”

“How can you do such a thing to a child?!”

“He’s a pitiful and weak(?) child! You’re worse than my face!”

Locke grabbed Minhyuk by the collar.

“Huh?”

Minhyuk tilted his head in confusion as he looked at Khan, Locke and Genie all huffing and puffing in rage.

“How could you do that to a powerless and weak child......”

‘Powerless...... who?’

Kaistra? He said that he was 9th in the unofficial world rankings though.

There was a high chance that even if the three of them worked together, they would still not be able to fight against him. Minhyuk explained to them what happened.

“Ah...... th, then, it was not like that. So that boy wanted to follow you because you and your father helped him before?”

Minhyuk nodded his head.

“There’s another mouth to feed. Why do people always want to follow me! I have already told Kaistra not to follow me again and again, but he still followed me! And sometimes......”

Minhyuk burst into tears. Once in a while, Kaistra would smile and look at him innocently while saying ‘Please give me something delicious.’.

This is why Kaistra is in charge of the dishes!

He even often made bread for him. Every time he logged out to go to bed, his body would shake and his pillow would be wet with tears because he always gave it to him before he went to bed! Also, Minhyuk had continuously told Kaistra that he could just play the game comfortably but he said that he wanted to stay beside Minhyuk. He even thought of giving him a mission soon just to keep him away from him for a while.

“I see......”

“Uhm......”

The three of them nodded their heads.

“Do you understand what I’m feeling?”

Minhyuk cried sadly.

I already have two more mouths to feed! One is Ben and the other is Kaistra!

Then, he suddenly thought about what his father and Kaistra had talked about after the meal a few days ago. If he asked Kaistra, he was sure that he wouldn’t answer him so he had no choice but to ask his father. He was lucky that today was his father’s day off. Minhyuk thought that he should go and log out to ask about what they had talked about.

“I’ll be out for a while.”

“Yeah.”

Minhyuk immediately logged out. As soon as he logged out, Khan, Genie and Locke looked at each other before speaking.

“Sigh...... It seems that the poor boy doesn’t have anything, he doesn’t even have much strength so he’s trying to do the dishes somehow.”

“Yeah...... So let’s be nice to that boy.”

“Yeah.”

Minhyuk had left something important. He forgot to tell them that Kaistra was stronger than anyone in Legend Guild.

***

Minhyuk headed straight to his father’s office after logging out of the game.

‘Did he eat already?’

He felt extremely happy because he felt like the relationship between him and his father had become a lot closer after they had eaten a meal together not too long ago.

Just as he was about to knock on the door.

“Bachran Guild?”

“Yeah. I think they’re after Britney who’s sealed in my left arm. They found me just so they could PK me. Eventually, I had no choice but to die.”

‘......?!’

Minhyuk’s hands that were about to knock on the door halted.

‘My dad was PKed......?’

***

TL’s corner!

I’m beginning to realize why the three of them had mistaken Minhyuk as someone poor before. LOL. Minhyuk does not explain well and the three of them have vivid imaginations. Sigh. Wonder how they’ll react once they see Kaistra in action? hahaha.
