Before the Crazy Hunter or Suicidal Rovan had realized it, he was already at Lv360. A level that was much higher than Minhyuk’s level. And he even used Berserker’s Madness as soon as he entered Valhalla Territory.

It’s a skill that removes 5 points from all of my basic stats and does not allow me to gain EXP for 3 days straight!

But in exchange for such a huge penalty, he was able to raise all of his abilities by 50%. And with this much strength, Rovan believed that he was in a position where he considered himself to be strong enough to not fall behind the rest of his guild.

But this damned stone lion’s defense is too high.

Plop, plop, plop!

It was too difficult to penetrate through its defenses. Even though his greatsword had struck it strongly, only a pile of stones were removed from its body. And it seemed like his strike did not cause too much of a damage because its defense was too high.

At that moment, he heard a familiar sound.

“Bbiiiiiiiiiiii!”

[Gryphon’s Cry.]

[Guild Member Minhyuk’s buffing ability had resulted in a 15% increase in all five basic stats.]

“It’s been a long time, right?”

Rovan could clearly remember this cry. It was the sound that he had frequently heard in the past when they were hunting in the Shrieking Hills. And it was that time when the man called Crazy Hunter Rovan had grown fed up with hunting! And that was also the time when he had suffered in defeat. But right now, Rovan was quite confident.

I even used Berserker’s Madness right now, you know?

Although he was not able to kill the stone lion, it was not because he was weak but because it had such a high defense. Even now, the great Kaistra couldn’t even break through the defenses of the stone lions. It seemed like their defense was at least at 4,500. The stone lions were acting as tankers while Baphomet was shooting magic from the back. This was the reason why they could easily jump around them.

Then, he remembered what Locke had told him a while ago.

‘I already told you that I went to the Time Attack Dungeon with Minhyuk not too long ago, right?’

‘But you know, when I played the game with Minhyuk I suddenly missed my mom.’

‘Eh?’

Rovan was taken aback with his words but Locke did not say anything else after that. It was as if he was sure that he would know about it sooner or later.

‘Why did you turn on the aggro? You can’t handle everything.’

Rovan thought that he should hurry and support Minhyuk when he saw him drawing the aggro.

And when he turned around, he saw Minhyuk. It was a reunion that was long overdue. He could see that he had changed a lot. He was currently wearing a rugged helmet, an old cloak, and bone armor with a baby pig on his shoulder.

Not long after, around six to eight stone lions flocked to where he was. There were even at least 20 Anubis that came running towards him.

‘Eeek! I should go help him!’

Before Rovan could move to help him, Minhyuk suddenly moved his sword. He saw sword lights scattering from his sword as it pierced a creature one by one. It was the Rampant Sword, one of the most common wide-area sword skills. It was a skill that would unfurl a flurry of swords that would swing and slash indiscriminately.

Slash, slash, slash, slash, slash!

Rovan’s eyes couldn’t help but widen in shock when he saw such a scene.

“Heok......!”

The thick hide of the stone lion that none of the Legend Guild could penetrate through was beginning to crack and tear apart. Then......

Bang! Bang! Baaaang!

They began to fall one by one as blood began to spurt out from the bodies of the stone lions that they had initially believed to have their insides still made out of stones.

But that was not the end yet. Flowers made out of sword blades bloomed on the ground as it engulfed the stone lions with a huge explosion.

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

The members of Legend Guild who were struggling to hunt the stone lions earlier all turned to look at Minhyuk. And Rovan, who was already under the effects of Berserker’s Madness and was still struggling while fighting against one, looked far away. He could now understand what Locke felt that day.

“......Dad, I miss you.”

He liked his dad better than his mom after all.

***

Minhyuk breathed deeply as he held his sword tightly.

There was only one reason why Minhyuk could hunt the stone lions easily compared to the other guild members. It was all thanks to his ‘Intangible Sword’. In the first place, the HP and attack power of the stone lions were not that high. They were only there to act as tankers because their defenses were too high that no one could break through their defenses easily.

But after he used the Blooming Sword with hundreds of sword blades exploding as well as the Rampant Sword that could indiscriminately attack the enemies for nine straight seconds he was sure that they would not be able to escape the Intangible Sword. And in the end, they fell down and exploded.

At that moment, Minhyuk’s sight was suddenly drawn to one spot. When Baphomet entered his sight, the same notifications that Legend Guild had heard also rang in Minhyuk’s ears.

[The Demon World’s 7th Demonic Monster, Baphomet has appeared!]

[Pharaoh is not Baphomet’s Attributed Summoner.]

[If you’re able to successfully hunt Baphomet, you will be the first to receive the Demon World’s rewards.]

‘First to receive the Demon World’s rewards?’

He believed that it would be something delicious if he would be the first to receive it. At that moment, Baphomet looked at Minhyuk warily. He was the person who easily hunted down the stone lions. Baphomet raised its staff as black mana erupted from it and wrapped around Minhyuk.

“Eumeeeeeeeeeh!”

[The Demonic Monster’s Curse.]

[Your Physical Attack has been reduced by 40%.]

[Your Physical Defense has been reduced by 40%.]

[Your Magical Attack has been reduced by 40%.]

[Your Magical Defense has been reduced by 40%.]

[Your skills’ cooldown duration has increased by 20%.]

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

[You have resisted an abnormal state.]

And along with those notifications, another unexpected notification rang in his ears.

[A Demonic Monster.]

[Special Privileges are applied depending on the Holy Power Stat.]

[The x2 increase of Holy Power due to Pandora’s Helmet’s special effect has been applied. Your attacking and defensive power against Demonic Monsters has increased by 100%.]

“......?”

Minhyuk was somewhat surprised.

It’s not only applied to the undead but even to Demonic Monsters?

[Absolute Defense.]

[No attack will be allowed to touch Kongie and his master for two seconds.]

The special skill that was attached in Hepas’ Pot Lid had been activated.

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

A huge amount of magical attacks had hit the place where Minhyuk stood.

“Heok!”

“Keuheok, that’s why I told you, you shouldn’t have done that......”

“Mi, Minhyuk-nim......”

The guild members bit their lips in frustration as they looked at the cloud of dust that rose from the attacks.

At that moment......

Puhaaaaaaa!

Minhyuk came out of the dust. And Kongie, who was grabbing Minhyuk’s cloak tightly, also came out with him. There two of them came out without a scratch on their bodies.

Dash!

Minhyuk flew up! And Kongie who was holding tightly on his cloak also flew behind Baphomet.

“Sword of Fury.”

“Oiink!”

Kongie also used his flipper blade.

Slap, slap, slap, slap, slap!

Slash, slash, slash, slash, slash!

“Ah, look at the chemistry of the daddy pig and the baby pig!”

Locke couldn’t help but shout when he saw the two of them attack and hit Baphomet at the same time.

“Meeeeeeeeeh!”

***

[I, I wouldn’t have to worry about getting lamb meat for the rest of my life......!]

Lee Minhwa and Team Leader Park were both watching the monitor together. Just a moment ago, they heard Minhyuk say such words. Lee Minhwa stared blankly at the monitor before speaking up.

“Te, Team Leader-nim......!”

“What?”

“User Minhyuk just said that he wouldn’t worry about getting lamb meat for the rest of his life......”

“His greatest ambition right now is to tame it using the Allurer’s Cooking Skill and collect lamb meat for free(?) for the rest of his life. But you know that it’s not possible if their levels have a gap of more than 100, right? Look, look. User Minhyuk might have recalled this fact too. Doesn’t he look so disappointed? In fact, even if he took a Demonic Monster with him, wouldn’t it be funny if he treated it as a ‘lamb meat extractor’? Right now he has the Ghost Barista Ben and the God of Dishwashing Kaistra. He’s already completely absurd.”

Team Leader Park let out a flurry of remarks. After pondering over his words, Lee Minhwa said......

“Th, that...... It’s funny but I think it would be a reality.”

“Huh?”

“The reward for being the first to hunt a Demonic Monster......”

“Yeah. But what does it have to do with...... Heok?!”

Team Leader Park’s eyes trembled wildly at the thought.

The reward for being the first to hunt a Demonic Monster!

With regards to hunting Demonic Monsters, the first reward was extremely valuable. And one of the rewards was......

‘Weaker Baphomet Summoning Stone......!”

What if he used that summoning stone?

“If User Minhyuk succeeds in this hunt...... will he say ‘Let me get some lamb meat from you’ to Baphomet who’s next to him every day......? No, I don’t think he will do such a cruel thing......”

“He’ll do it. If it’s User Minhyuk then he’ll do it.”

“......Yeah.”

Then, their sights drifted back to the monitor again. It was the moment when Kongie and Minhyuk were hitting Baphomet together. Looking at the scene in the monitor, Lee Minhwa couldn’t help but get goosebumps. She thought......

‘Ba, Baphomet...... I feel a bit sorry for you......’

At this rate, Baphomet will really become an infinitely refilling lamb meat machine.

***

Stab!

Baphomet saw the blade stabbing straight at its abdomen. At that same moment, Minhyuk heard a notification.

[You have succeeded in stabbing a vital point.]

[100% additional damage!]

Then, a powerful force condensed at the tip of his sword which triggered a powerful explosion.

Bang!

But it was not the end.

[Lightning (Thunderbolt)]

[Three Lightning Strikes.]

Crack, crack, crack!

A spark formed and spread before striking over Baphomet’s head.

Bang, bang, bang!

A powerful lightning strike engulfed its entire body.
