Chapter 54 End (4) (1/2)
Even though Kahn had told Yeon-woo everything he knew about Vigrid, he remained completely silent in regard to where he got the information from.
But Yeon-woo didn’t care much.
Unlike Kahn who didn’t want a power that would ultimately weaken him, Yeon-woo wasn’t afraid to take such risk.
And then,
“That one?”
“If only I can get him.”
“First rank! I can actually be the first! No, I don’t even want to take the first rank. Look how much Karma he has. Even if we split it up…!”
“His weapon looks good too. Where could have he possibly gotten that?”
All the players started to look at Yeon-woo with covetous eyes.
Overwhelmingly high Karma and a presumably high-rating artifact. As if those two weren’t tempting enough, Yeon-woo was a solo player who didn’t have any team or clan behind him. Even if they killed him, it wouldn’t cause them any trouble down the line.

Judging by the number of Tokens he had collected, it was highly likely that he was also a very skilled player.
However, it didn’t worry them too much. Unless he was also a freak of nature like Phante, he couldn’t possibly handle this many players at once.
If he were such a player, his name would have surely spread in the tutorial. But none of them had heard of any strong player that matched his appearance, which led them to the conclusion that he really was just a nobody.
One by one, the players in Section G began to show their hostility toward Yeon-woo.
Even those in the safe zone stepped in to the battle zone and surrounded Yeon-woo in order to gang up on him as soon as he took a step outside the safe zone.
They were ready to break through the whirlwind and launch their attacks on him.
But little did they know that Yeon-woo’s sword was slowly reacting to their hostility.
[Blessing of the Sword]
The first option engraved in Vigrid reacted to the hostility.
The whirlwind surrounding Yeon-woo intensified as demonic energy started to flow into the whirlwind.

Kyaaa-
Bloodcurdling shrieks resonated throughout the whole area.
The players who tried to surround Yeon-woo were startled by the sudden cries. A horrible chill ran down their spines, and an ominous feeling slowly crept into their minds.
In the meantime, the sword started to emit a much stronger demonic energy.
The demonic energy grew proportionally to the number of enemies Yeon-woo was facing.
And that was what he was aiming for.
Yeon-woo intentionally showed his Tokens and pulled out Vigrid in front of everybody That was all part of his plan in order to bring out their hostility and amplify Vigrid’s ability to its fullest extent.
‘I bet y’all never thought that your arrogance would bring about a disaster.’
When the demonic energy finally reached its peak, Yeon-woo consumed all of the souls he had collected in the previous sections and used them to strengthen the demonic energy and to further expand his whirlwind.
*Whoosh*

“Hup!”
“What the…!”
What had been but a small whirlwind had now grown into a massive windstorm that covered the entire span of Section G.
The demonic energy inside the storm spread, forming wind blades that started to affect the players inside.
Several players’ faces turned blue as they staggered to their feet, and some even collapsed on the floor and vomited blood.
Only then did they realize that something was definitely wrong.
*Kwaang*
But before they could do anything about it, Yeon-woo jumped forward, kicking off the ground that caved in from the impact.
His plan now was to dash straight into the center of the battle zone.
*Swish*

The windstorm moved along with Yeon-woo, sweeping away any player standing on its course.
*Kwakwa*
“He’s going towards the center!”
“S, stop him!”
With their fluttering legs barely supporting their bodies, the players still jumped in front of Yeon-woo.
No matter how afraid they were of Yeon-woo’s power, it was not enough to extinguish the fire of greed. On the contrary, it was adding more fuel to that fire.
If only they could take away that weapon, that power would be theirs to wield.
“Die!”
A player came and stood in front of Yeon-woo, swinging his sword with belligerence.
But Yeon-woo swayed Vigrid without batting an eye.

*Kwang*
The upper body of the player exploded into pieces along with his shattered sword.
Only a rough slash mark was left in the place where Vigrid swept across. There was no longer a sign of life in the player’s eyes.
He died with a single slash.
But the effect of the attack didn’t end there.
Waves of greenish air suddenly burst out from the dead body and spread out in a radius of 15 meters. And the players exposed to the air froze in place and sank to the floor with their hands clenched on their necks.
“Wh, what the fuck?”
“What kind… of curse…! Kuak!”
All their faces turned pale as they gasped for air. They looked like they were on the verge of death.
[Contagious Blessing]

And that was when the second option of Vigrid came into action.
While Kahn and Doyle had focused their attention only on the effects of Blessing of the Sword, it was this option that had caught Yeon-woo’s eye the most.
The option that spread the curse bound inside the sword, Vigrid.
It was a curse fueled by the vengeful spirit of various heroes. There was no doubt that the curse would be powerful.
What if he added the amplified demonic energy to the mix?
Of course, it would be horrendously effective.
The option only triggered after dealing the final blow, but there were almost no players who could block Yeon-woo’s attack after being weakened by the curse.
*Kwang* *Kwang*
With every swing, players flew away like leaves falling in the autumn wind.
“Kuaak!”

“Uck!”
The whole stage fell into complete chaos in just a moment’s time
Where screams and shrieks were heard ceaselessly, bodies of fainted players were lying everywhere on the stage.
And Yeon-woo ran through the pile of bodies like a wild beast.
His target was Edora.
It was time to cement his place in the tutorial ranking.
* * *
Amid the huge windstorm sweeping away the stage like a tidal wave, there was Vyram with his brows creased.
‘What the hell is going on!’
The fifth rank of the tutorial ranking.

The first time Vyram saw his rank after entering Section G, he felt anger rising within him.
5th place?
A player like him?
He was a man who had always walked the path of triumph. Anything that stood in front of him, he got rid of it, no matter if it was an enemy or an obstacle.
Things had always been that simple.
A swordsman of Marcusian origin. That was his identity and at the same time, the sole reason why he got attention from other players along with the One-horned Tribe siblings and the dumbass duo.
For him, placing fifth was equally embarrassing as being marked as a loser. It was an unacceptable result.
‘This can’t be happening… I have to be the first no matter what it takes. Otherwise…’
Marcus, where Vyram was born and raised, was a planet with a barren environment that normal humans cannot live off of.
The whole planet is covered with dry deserts and rivers of magma flowing along the surface.

Therefore, in order to survive on planet Marcus, people had to grow strong. Power was the only means of survival.
And with their strength, Marcusian warriors started to work as a group of mercenaries. In the end, they had become the number one mercenary group among many worlds and dimensions.
Marcusian warriors gained deep trust from various clients as they always carried out any commission in a strong and honest manner.
