CH 46

press conference (1)

The entire stadium was engulfed in silence.

It was because everyone was at a loss for words due to the unexpected result.

" "

" "

The people here had to be surprised twice in total.

The first was because of Cheon Yoo-seong's ability to crush players of the same rank.

Second, it was because of the monster that he couldn't defeat even though he had done his best.

Truly overwhelming power.

The fluff caused by the tremor was still standing on its own.

How many minutes have passed?

It was someone's word that broke the eternal silence.

To be precise, it was an elastic close to an insult.

What a crazy...!

I couldn't help but swear.

Because all of this was a situation that completely broke common sense.

Stop, you will only spit out the truth inside.

Then the rest of the people opened their mouths as if they were waiting.

Look, did you see it? My eyes almost popped out with just the sword, but did you use magic-based skills?

That's not the level I learned as an assistant. You just smashed that white, magic stone-made protective wall and pierced the outer wall!

Is it a human right? It's more plausible that the boss monster from the upper floor jumped out, right?

I still can't believe it. Damn it. Is this a dream or reality...

in a chaotic atmosphere.

Jinhyuk approached the two people right next to the stadium.

long time no see?

Jinhyuk smiled brightly.

...that's right. It's the first time I've seen you at the museum.

Ah...

Min Jung-woo and Lee Yu-ri flinched.

It was because of the memories of being thoroughly trampled on at the National Museum of Korea.

Actually, the first start was a bit bloody, but you can't stay stuck in the past forever, can you?

Hmm. I also don't want to lose the Chuck with you. To be honest, I don't think I'll ever be able to survive if I met an enemy.

Me, me too.

The two nodded their heads.

Then, in the sense of getting better in the future, I would like to ask you one thing. If possible, I would like Summoner Lee Yu-ri to work hard.

What? Please?

Yes. It doesn't matter if you listen or refuse.

If that's the case...

sure.

Jinhyuk's eyes widened even more.

If you're thinking of putting it in the toilet and throwing it away, like in the future, you can say no.

...!

Yuri's eyebrows trembled.

That's fine, it's a request with options.

If you refuse, you never know what will happen when.

If it's something I can do... no, I'll definitely listen to it no matter what.

thank you.

Jinhyuk told Yuri what she needed.

A task that must be determined in order to attack the boss. At the same time, it was an item that could be prepared much more easily if Lee Yu-ri was a summoner.

How long can I prepare?

The day after tomorrow. Please send everything to this address by then.

Hey, you want me to do so many things in two days?

Why can't you?

No, no. You can do it, if you do.

Lee Yu-ri was crying and took the note that Jin-hyuk had handed her.

Then, please.

It was when Jinhyuk, who lightly greeted him, was about to leave.

'This ?'

Jinhyuk reflexively turned his head.

Something caught my senses.

It's up!

kuuung!

A man in the audience jumped off.

Huge size and muscular body.

It was Jeong Do-hyun whom I met in front of the association.

This is really surprising. The guy I thought was a cheerleader would have this much power.

If you're arguing, I found the wrong number, but it seems like my body is completely relaxed and I can't control my strength.

Jinhyuk sighed softly.

At the same time, I peered into the status window of the other party through the 'eyes of truth'.

Name: Jeong Do-hyeon

Gender: Male

Age: 33

Level: 21

Strength 40 Dexterity 17 Stamina 18 mana 8

Stat Points you have: 0

Coins held: 8,535

Occupation: Engineer

Unique Ability: Giant's Power

skill: Lv5 'Giant's Grasp', Lv5 'Giant's Shield', Lv5 'Slow Pain', Lv5 'Deep breath', Lv4 'Despise the weak'

[Copy Conditions: The current subject approached you with a conspiracy to do something. If you understand what the intention is, you can copy the 'Giant's Grasp' among the skills the target has.]

Kung kong?

Does that mean it's not just for arguing?

No, rather than that, how does the system know about Jeong Do-hyun's intentions?

Jinhyuk frowned at the different copying conditions from before.

But it was only for a short time.

Unraveling the secrets about the Tower of Trials is only for later.

This is because there was no time to worry about problems that did not have an answer if you had to think about it right now.

Wow. Don't stare at me like that. I'm not doing this to fight.

Jeong Do-hyeon raised both palms toward Jin-hyuk, who was exhaling flesh.

As if he had no intention to fight.

Then, why bother people?

"I thought we would see each other more often I just wanted to say please take good care of me."

Do-hyeon Jeong, who was shaking too much, asked for a handshake.

However, Jinhyuk did not hold hands.

Are you saying goodbye to me now?

It can't be.

Such a gentlemanly attitude change is not possible for a person who only knows how to look down on others.

As the system says, there must be other reasons.

Jinhyuk's head began to spin rapidly.

Although it was inferior compared to Cheonyuseong.

Jeong Do-hyeon also belonged to a fairly strong axis compared to the same rank.

But, why didn't he come to the ball?

And, unlike other large guilds, why did the guild master Hong Deok-pyo come here?

'It must be because there is a reason to come here.'

I didn't know exactly what it was, but it must have been important.

Jinhyuk looked at Jeong Do-hyun.

Behind the face that pretended to be calm, I could see a mixture of inferiority and anger.

He never came down to make friends.

rather.

It must have come to show off something that only you can do.

the act of shaking hands. Jeong Do-hyeon's unique ability is 'the power of a giant'. A player that was saved without being sent to the prom. A guild master who is anxious for the growth of the guild.

Clues and clues are combined.

And finally.

Something flashed through Jinhyuk's head like lightning.

'Yes. Reporters are here.'

He was afraid that a rookie who appeared out of nowhere would steal the spotlight, so he sent Jeong Do-hyun.

Even if it's a battle. As far as grip power simply using force is, Jeong Do-hyeon will have a far superiority.

A large rookie who has been receiving everyone's attention suffers from being pushed by physical strength?

You will be able to lower your image and increase your own value at the same time.

exactly. Not a bad way.

'If only I wasn't the other person.'

That was then.

T-tiring! T-tiring! T-tiring!

As if to prove Jinhyuk's hypothesis is correct.

A status window appears one after another to inform you that the copy condition has been achieved.

[The condition has been met.]

[You have acquired the skill 'Giant's Grasp (B)'!]

[Giant's Grasp]

Acquisition Difficulty: B

Description: You will be able to use the power of the giant, a large monster. In particular, the grip strength increases dramatically, and you can freely use items up to 10 times your body weight.

I knew it.

The prediction was correct.

'It must have been a plan like that.'

This is what makes things fun.

Jinhyuk smiled all over his face, and this time he used the unique ability he had obtained from the basement.

[The unique ability 'Judgment of Anubis' is activated!]

huuuuuuoooooooooooooooooooo

air that vibrates slightly.

If the user asks three questions and the subject answers the three questions, then the condition is satisfied.

Are you doing this handshake on behalf of the entire Black Cloud guild?

Jinhyuk asked the first 'question'.

Of course. Deok-pyo HyungNim is also interested in you. It seems that there are no guilds, but if you join us, they will give you special treatment.

Special treatment... .

You're good at talking shit you don't even want.

Knowing the intentions clearly, every word of this sounded disgusting.

However, it was not expressed.

Because the answer to the question is not over yet.

"Actually, I need a quick payment, but if I sign up for it, they give me a lot of down payment? Why.

Fuhaha! Well, isn't that a natural thing? Just tell me the amount and I'll give it to you.

second with this.

This is why the judgment of Anubis is fraudulent.

Because the condition was met even with a trivial question.

Most of all, I liked the fact that the opponent did not even recognize that this skill was being activated, unless the person was extremely sensitive.

All you have to do is give it a moderate amount of time so as not to provoke the Egyptians and write it down.

I'll give it some serious thought.

Jinhyuk reached out to Jeong Do-hyun.

like that.

The two hands met.

'Caught!'

A fishy smile hung on Jeong Do-hyun's lips.

Finally, the opponent will bite the bait.

'No matter how good swordsmanship and magic are, pure power is bound to be weak.'

If you hit your opponent with this and hold a press conference, you could create the best results.

At that moment, the reporters who saw the two shaking hands began to approach little by little.

with camera and smartphone.

All eyes were focused on the two of them.

Who is it?

If you look at the pattern, it looks like a player belonging to the Black Fortune Guild?

Oh! It seems like you're thinking of recruiting that player before the other guilds. I'll be able to catch this scoop properly.

It's a meeting between a large guild and a promising prospect... This is just a top-notch article.

'Perfect timing!'

[Do Hyun Jeong activates Lv5 'Giant's Grasp'!]

Jeong Do-hyeon's forearms expanded rapidly.

The power of a giant that can crush even steel has been reproduced through human hands.

By the way.

uh?

The face of the opponent, who had to be distorted by pain, was so calm.

burr

The hands holding each other trembled violently.

It was a symptom that appeared when the balance of power was kept tight.

Unbelievable .

'Are you saying that even my strength is on par with me?

That's absurd.

Because I've never heard of a Treasured Sword like an all-round player who's perfect in every field.

However, no matter how much force was squeezed, the balance was not broken.

It was as if he had used the same abilities as himself.

at that time.

Last question.

Jinhyuk licked his lips slowly.

Big! Crab. What are you asking?

Jeong Do-hyun, whose face turned red, managed to answer.

Did you think that if it was simply strength, you would have the upper hand?

That's right! Gagging with a poor guy like you and me...?

The moment when Jeong Do-hyun answered the question.

Suddenly, the tight balance of power collapsed.

Has your opponent become stronger?

no. That's not it.

Weakened... .

'Is it me?'

It was hard to believe, but the unique abilities as well as the skills were all sealed.

Ududuk!

The pressure on my hands began to exceed the limit I could tolerate.

broken

At this rate, all of my fingers would have froze for sure.

"Let go let go. Let go of this!"

Huh? Why? Does it hurt?

Jinhyuk smirked.

Aww!

Don't be shy. It looks like you're pretty confident in your strength, but you can't do that because you're distracted by your size.

Stop it, maaaan!

In the end, Jeong Do-hyeon twisted his whole body and knelt down on one knee.

The thought of having to play with my first opponent had long since disappeared.

My mind was full of thoughts of getting out of this terrible pain.

Whoops!

Jeong Do-hyun unconsciously swung his fist.

It was more of a struggle to survive than a counterattack.

sure.

A clumsy attack like that wouldn't work.

Jin-hyuk looked at Jeong Do-hyun's fist that was stuck in his stomach.

" "

end with that

kwaang!

A fist raised like lightning pierced Jeong Do-hyun's abdomen.

Kuweeeek!

A body that was completely broken by a giyeok.

Vomiting with blood was a natural result.

However, Jinhyuk did not stop there.

It was because he was planning to trample it properly even to show it to Hong Deok-pyo.

But right then.

Pants... !

Strange mana interrupted.
