Chapter 205: Listing (1)

[Congratulations! You have completed the quest as the top player in this region!]

[Currently, ‘Black Scythe’ is ranked 1st in this region.]

[As a reward for ranking 1st in this region, you receive a ‘Rune Bundle’!]

[As a reward for ranking 1st in this region, you receive a ‘Special Reward Selection Box’!]

Winning first place every time is becoming tiresome.

‘But it would be disappointing not to receive it.’

Thinking that it was only fair to receive his rightful reward, he used the Rune Bundle.

[You have used the Rune Bundle.]

[Congratulations! You have obtained the ‘Rune of Gale’!]

[The acquired rune is automatically engraved on the player’s body!]

[Rune of Gale]

– Effect: Increases attack speed and movement speed by 100%.

‘Oh, this is quite good, isn’t it?’

His attack speed and movement speed were already fast enough, but having more wouldn’t hurt.

‘This rune’s performance is above average.’

Getting stronger is never a bad thing, and it could be necessary for future preparations.

‘You never know how strong the Archangel ranked 1st, Michael, is.’

He had felt an abyssal strength from Michael before, but he wasn’t sure how things stood now.

‘I need to get stronger to be ready to face Michael.’

Having already taken down the 6th and 7th ranks, it was time to meet the 5th, though he didn’t expect much.

He had easily dealt with the 6th and 7th ranks, so how strong could the 5th be?

‘Still, I need to be careful. They might descend into the real world.’

The other world wouldn’t be much of a problem, but if an Archangel appeared in reality, even Ryu Min would have to be cautious.

‘They might target my younger brother.’

With this in mind, he pressed the Special Reward Selection Box, thinking about preparation for any eventuality.

[You can choose one of the following special rewards.]

[Touch the desired reward.]

└ 1. Experience Points Double Increase Buff (limited to 13 rounds)

└ 2. Mercenary Guild Rank Increase by One Level

‘Damn bastard.’

His anger from the 11th round hadn’t subsided, so he couldn’t look favorably at Black Scythe.

‘We could have partied with five people, but he refused.’

At first, he had the chance to party with him, An Sang-cheol, and Seo Arin, but he refused and only took Min Juri.

Although he hadn’t said it, he couldn’t help but feel unpleasant about it.

‘Speaking of which, he’s always hanging out with that buffer. Are they dating?’

Probably not.

Who would like someone with such an arrogant personality, who speaks informally from the first meeting?

‘Oh, there’s another person.’

The person Ma Kyung-rok thought of was Christine.

She tried not to show it, but Ma Kyung-rok was quick to notice.

He knew that Christine secretly liked Black Scythe.

‘It’s possible. He did save her life. It wouldn’t be strange for her to have personal feelings. But still...’

Ma Kyung-rok bit his lower lip.

‘Why would she look elsewhere when she has a fiancé by her side?’

Their relationship wasn’t bad, but it wasn’t particularly good either. It felt more like a formality for others to see.

‘But we are engaged. We’ve promised their future to each other. In such a situation, it’s not right to look elsewhere.’

Frankly, Ma Kyung-rok didn’t care who Christine liked.

He had been fine with her not liking him just a month ago.

But this time, he realized something for sure.

He couldn’t stand the sight of her getting along with Black Scythe.

‘That guy, who already monopolizes the region’s representative and 1st rank, wants to take someone else’s woman too?’

Despite being her savior, gratitude was overshadowed by negative feelings.

‘If I had known I’d be this stressed, I should have saved her myself, damn it.’

The Prophet must have known all of this, didn’t he?

That Black Scythe would save Christine.

‘Damn you Prophet.’

He began to feel irritated even at the innocent Prophet.
