“Heuk!”



My mind is dizzy.

As much as I am hugging him, damage is coming to me as well.

A shock that felt like the whole body would be torn to pieces.

Tinnitus rings in the ears at the sound of the explosion, and a stone shard protrudes into the helmet, stinging the eyes.

Smoke rising violently.

heated armor.

Whole body burned to black.

It was the same that Oh Ji-hyeok couldn’t come to his senses.

– Kwadeuk!

Looking for an opportunity, I bit off the brooch hanging from his chest.

The gum was punctured and blood was leaking out, but I didn’t care.

– Jjiik!

His clothes were ripped and the brooch came out.

I didn’t just do this crazy thing.

I did it because I thought I had a chance.

“Oh no!”

As the brooch disappeared, Oh Ji-hyeok’s resistance drastically diminished.

This means that the buff effect is gone.

then what’s left

“It’s a hell party, son of a bitch!”

“Damn it—!”

[Fire Bomb (B) Lv.1]

-Ahh!

Explosion erupts again.

Every time you use it, mana is sucked out.

dizziness level.

But I didn’t stop.

Because I was thinking of fighting here.

[Fire Bomb (B) Lv. 1]

[Fire Bomb (B) Lv. 1]

[Skill level up!]

[Fire Bomb (B) Lv. 2]

Maybe because I kept using it.

Raised to skill level. That is to say.

“Aaaaaaaaa!”

“Haaaaaagh!”

That said, the explosive power increased.

I think I will die.

“Isn’t that supposed to dry?”

“Can you get in there?”

“That’s...”

Each member of the guild grabbed their weapon, but none of them approached.

The fight between me and Oh Ji-hyeok has already reached a point where a third party cannot intervene.

-The

skin that touches the heated armor is getting cooked and the heat permeates inside, burning my throat.

It’s a bonus that your head shakes from the shock and you feel sick.

The feeling of exhaustion is no joke as the mana wears off.

Arms and torso holding him?

I feel like my bones are about to break. The flesh seems to have been ripped a long time ago.

But I was able to hold on.

because.

-Lick lick lick lick!

[Recovery (F)]

[Recovery (F)]

[Recovery (F)]

.

.

.

Because Deokchun, who had been kept inside his armor, was licking his chest hard!

A trait developed by eating baekhwan. recovery. Its effect is being exerted.

Very weak but sure effect.

why isn’t there such a thing I think I’ll turn around, but I can’t die.

“Hehe. Heh heh heh.”

Laughter came out without my knowledge.

Do people lose their taste when they are under extreme stress?

Or is it because the situation itself is absurd?

My body hurts to death, my chest is wet, so it tickles me, and the guild members treat me like a crazy person.

“Oh, the devil. I am laughing.”

“He must be crazy!”

no. I’m just a petit bourgeois who covets skills and items.

I don’t even have the strength to speak. My mind is also confused.

Meanwhile, the explosion continues.

How long has it been?

Wasn’t it when the mana ran out?

Once again, I realized how high the magical power level of 11 is.

-Lick lick lick lick!

At that time, despite Deokchun’s flamboyant tongue movements, his consciousness kept blurring.

-Wood Deuk

“Keaheoeook!”

The man’s body shook greatly.

Resistance gone.

The shaking guy drooped at once, giving a creepy sensation.

is it over?

Or smoke?

I forcibly opened my eyes, which were stinging with sweat and ash.

“Ughhh.”

I could see Oh Ji-hyeok’s face, which had turned black.

There is not even a slight movement.

I headed inside without hesitation.

Now on the 7th floor.

* * *

An hour after Cho Hyun-soo left.

Oh Ji-hyuk woke up at an inn that the Sangun Guild rented out.

The guild members guarding the surroundings strictly.

Oh Ji-hyeok, who quietly blinked, frowned.

[Remaining Coin: 1]

“...I lost.”

Coins remained, but pride was trampled.

At least here, he prided himself on being the strongest.

“Are you awake!”

“Oh yeah.”

A guild member came over and tried to help him, but Oh Ji-hyeok waved his hand.

There was no time to be obsessed with defeat.

I had to report it to the upper level, and more than anything.

“damn. It’s gone too.”

The priority was to figure out which skill was missing.

killer penalty.

As much as he gained a skill by killing someone, he also had to spit out the skill when he died.

Oh Ji-hyeok, who wiped his face for a moment, gritted his teeth.

– Pudeuk!

‘I will definitely chase and kill that bastard!’

Even if I lost once, there was no guarantee that I would lose again.

It wasn’t just because of the guild’s order.

Pride. that was the problem

“That manager.”

“wait. Reporting to the top comes first.”

The guild member tried to convey something, but Oh Ji-hyeok stopped him.

You must submit a report at once.

An unknown person has risen to the top.

And he said he would go up too.

-Titling

After a while, the reply came.

simple content.

– Permit.

“It’s nice to be cool.”

Oh Ji-hyeok pursed his lips.

I thought I would hold you back for once.

It wasn’t something I couldn’t understand.

mission failed. Besides, until you lose.

There’s no reason for him to keep his position as manager.

‘The manager is a being who reigns in fear.’

It lost its meaning the moment it was defeated.

Fear that can be defeated is no longer fear.

“I can’t stay here forever.”

Tuk-tuk. Oh Ji-hyeok, who got up from his seat, called out the most senior among his subordinates.

A guild member whose leg was broken the other day.

From now on, this guy will be the handler.

It’s not very reliable, but it’s quite capable nonetheless.

Because Oh Ji-hyeok himself wasn’t a monster from the beginning.

If enough time passes and skills are acquired, they will become stronger.

I’ve been through some hardships in the meantime.

“From now on, you will follow me and learn the duties of a handler.”

“Yes yes?”

“It is an order from the superior.”

The guild members were taken aback by the sudden notification.

“I see!”

He soon lowered his head.

For him too, being the manager was a great opportunity.

Oh Ji-hyeok smiled and walked to the window.

In fact, even if I went straight up, no one would say anything, but I was thinking of finishing the aftermath.

Taking over. Because that’s basic.

the first one.

“While I was in Portal 5, something happened in the plaza.”

To settle the riots that broke out in the square.

What the hell kind of crazy guy did that?

“You must have caught the guy who ran amok, right?”

“That’s it.”

“done. Let’s look at the scene first. Quick normalization of the comfort zone. Because that’s more important. Write it down.” -Oh Ji-hyeok, who

lightly

tapped the officer on the shoulder, opened the window.

An inn owned by the Sangun Guild.

The top room was where Oh Ji-hyeok was staying, and he could see the plaza at a glance just by opening the window.

– Whoa, whoa,

what a refreshing breeze.

It was a feeling that calmed my troubled heart a little.

“Whoa.”

Oh Ji-hyeok calmly exhaled a deep breath.

But...

“...Fuck.”

A wide open square.

The place was devastated.

A broken control line. A barricade that has become a wreck.

When I look beyond the plaza, all the portals that were blocked have been opened.

When Oh Ji-hyeok’s face hardened, the next officer staggered forward.

“Oh that. Handler. We failed to stop him from appearing in the plaza. The portal was breached and the remaining people escaped at the same time, so the blockade is virtually meaningless. I’m sorry!”



A guild member who puts his head on his own without giving a bad report.

Oh Ji-hyeok pulled the back goal.
