That was right. There were hundreds of gigantic roots that sprung up from the ground. The tip of the roots were all pointy and sharp just like the tip of a wooden spear. These tree roots suddenly appeared and loomed over Philip Village.

Then, the notification rang for the people inside Philip Village.

At the exact same moment, the ears of the members of Legend Guild and Black Dragon and the Boys started to elongate and become pointy.

“Wow......”

“A 15% increase in all five of our basic stats? Plus a 15% increase in AGI? Isn’t this too fraudulent?”

For these rankers that stood above all the other rankers, percentage increases were bound to have a tremendous effect on their strength and power.

Meanwhile, the viewers who were watching the tree roots growing all over Philip Village spoke in wonder.

On the other hand, PD Kim Daeguk of ATV broadcasting station was told that their ratings were already close to 60%.Findd new stories at novelhall.com

“C, crazy...... ! What the hell are those tree roots? Hahahahahaha!”

He was smiling happily. But at that exact same moment, they heard the voice of Genie, the guild master of Legend Guild. Genie and ATV were connected since they were currently on air and doing a broadcast.

PD Kim Daeguk was caught in shock.

What in the world does she mean by that?

Right now, the viewers wanted to see the power of those tentacle-like tree roots. But they were requesting interruptions in the broadcast?

“W, what do you mean?”

Genie calmly explained to PD Kim Daeguk after he had asked her to clarify her words.

“......”

PD Kim Daeguk was left speechless. Yes. That was right. Minhyuk’s name was not written on that list. Even Genie and the rest of her guild members did not know that Minhyuk would come here so she did not write his name on the list.

PD Kim Daeguk was now in a bind. Currently, the people that the viewers wanted to see the most were Black Mage Ali and the Frying Pan Killer.

But you want me to take them out from the broadcast?

If he did that, then the biggest highlight of the scenes would be taken out and the rest of the scenes would naturally become dull videos. It was important for them to maintain what the viewers wanted if they wanted to maintain their high ratings.

PD Kim Daeguk couldn’t let the chance slip away so he asked her......

“What do you want?”

He asked because he was not a fool. Genie fell silent for a while before answering.

“......!!”

His eyes widened in shock.

25 billion.

“Should we really ask for 25 billion, Father-nim?”

“They will have no choice but to give it to you.”

It was none other than Black Dragon who spoke for the request in profits. He spoke those words as soon as he came inside.

He was an outstanding businessman. After all, he was the chairman of Ilhwa Group both in name and in reality. And this was not just because he was being good to themselves, doing this would be for the better. Currently, ATV had only signed with Legend Guild and not Black Dragon and the Boys. To compensate them, Black Dragon tried to reap and induce profits in this way.

In fact, the profits that he would reap from Black Dragon and the Boys would be given to ‘Share a Love Lunchbox’. This was so he could help the needy and hungry children, elderly and boys and girls all over the country! To some, he would appear to be a ‘greedy’ man. But he had no greed for money. He only believed that one should not live their life at a loss.

Black Dragon and the Boys and Legend Guild would only appear to look like people who were blinded by money on the ATV’s side. But it would never be on their side. It was only natural that they increased the profits that they would receive in due course. This was none other than the ‘Chairman’s Management Secret’.

Of course, several billion would be deducted from the 25 billion to be shared among everyone including Minhyuk, Black Mage Ali and the Legend Guild. But the only question was if Genie would be willing to do this then would the broadcasting station lose so much money?

Then, at that moment......

His words sounded like he was telling her to ‘I beg you, don’t cut off the show!’. Genie turned back to look at Black Dragon in surprise.

Black Dragon. He is a Legendary Class in Athenae and he is also the chairman of Ilhwa Group.

Prince Argon hurried back inside the village with the knights. And with his return, the Royal Shop had opened!

“Wow. Th, this is crazy......!”

“What the hell? A 40% HP and MP recovery potion? It’s only 3,000 points!!!”

“Who the hell is this elf?”

“What the hell did Minhyuk do?”

The members of Legend Guild were all bound to be shocked by the content of the shop.

And there were even the tentacles that surrounded Philip Village! The tree roots accurately flew straight as they stabbed through the bodies of the Silver Wolves.

Stab!

After stabbing the Silver Wolves, the tree roots wriggled and flung them far away.

“......!”

Gorn continued to watch the situation with his thousand-li eyes. He could see the man who saved his son. That man had also created such a miracle in this desperate situation.

‘I’m willing to do whatever that man asks of me.’

The members of Legend Guild and Black Dragon and the Boys stared at Conir, who was walking along, vigilantly. Conir, someone who was covered with bandages all over and only had his eyes visible, could give goosebumps to anyone who saw him.

Everyone held their breath as they focused on Conir’s each and every movement. Each and every one of them prepared their best one-shot skill as they watched his slow movements.

Genie’s whip was covered in fire. This was her most powerful skill that could give her a 170% additional attack power.

On the other side, Locke’s double-handed axe was also filled with curses. It was the power that would cause the opponent’s skin to rot as soon as it touches their body. This was none other than Jeffrit’s Curse.

Abel also prepared his ‘Mortal’s Death’. It was a power that could allow him to stab his dagger straight into his chest in a blink of an eye before exploding.

Minhyuk was also preparing his Splitting Sword.

“Right now!”

Genie sent the signal.

Dash—

The first one to move was Abel. He rushed straight at Conir who was standing in the middle. Since he was an assassin class, he was bound to be the fastest when launching an attack.

Shwaaaaaaaa!

Just as when he was about to stab the dagger straight into Conir’s chest...... Conir’s sword moved. Abel’s dagger was easily blocked by his sword.

“......!”

Abel was shocked. He had confirmed Conir’s strength through his ‘Monster Analysis’ but this force was too much. It was almost nonsensical.

It seemed like this was the power of his AGI that was at x3. He could instantaneously move to defend himself.

Shiiiiiiiing—

Conir’s sword moved smoothly and gently. Then......

Pipipipipipi—

Several cuts were drawn on Abel’s body. And......

Spurt!

Spurt!

Blood spurted out all over his body.

“Keoheok!”

“Goddamn! Jeffrit’s Madness!”

Locke slammed his double-handed axe straight down on the ground with all his might. At the same time, two powerful red lines stretched out from his axe before flying straight towards Conir. The moment these lines hit something, their body parts would immediately rot and would be unusable for the next 20 seconds.

But Conir moved away swiftly. His movements were as light as a feather.

Dash—

He had escaped from the attack with just a light leap. At that moment, Khan suddenly appeared behind him. He grinned as he struck out without missing a beat.

“Caught you. Giant’s Fury!”

This skill allowed him to hit his opponent from above. With both his arms crossed together, his attack could have as much as 200% additional attack power.

Right at that moment......

Conir’s bandage loosened. The bandage wrapped around Genie’s neck.

“Keop!”

Conir’s body was drawn from the bandage that he had wrapped around Genie’s neck. With this movement, Khan’s fist slammed into nothing but air.

Hundreds of afterimages of the soldiers’ swords, Black Mage Ali’s Fire Field, Minhyuk’s Splitting Sword, Ascar’s Hundred Weapons. All those attacks rained on Conir’s body. However, Conir held his sword as he danced around like a ghost.

“You crazy son of a bitch! Go to hell!”

Locke couldn’t help but scream out curses.

Conir’s movements were truly horrifying. He looked like a ghost as he moved his joints around. It was literally creepy.

Then, something more extraordinary happened.

“......!”

“......!”

“......!”

The guild members looked on in horror. This was a skill that could nullify and cancel a huge number of attacks in an instant. They already knew that he was strong, but they did not know that he was this strong.

They gulped as they watched Conir trudging along.

PR’s corner!

The Elven King is willing to do anything for Minhyuk... welp, pretty sure I know what our boy will ask for.
