The Minions running towards him hadn’t received any training.  Therefore, their success rate wasn’t that great.(TLN:I think he is talking about the chance to get abilities)  Instead, their base personality itself was aggressive, so they never retreated.

The Minion’s movements were clearly menacing.  When he was a Minion like them, he could only block with a s.h.i.+eld.  However, he could see their movements now.

The problem was Lee-joonhyuk had never trained with a two-handed sword before.

If Lee-joonhyuk had trained with the two-handed sword than he would have had an easier time dealing with the Minions.  However, his control over his muscles allowed him to have a certain amount of skill with the two-handed sword even though he hadn’t trained with it.

Moreover, he had an overwhelming advantage in strength and speed compared to all the Minions, so he just had to stay very alert.

Zzung!

He deflected the running Minion’s axe. He used the rebound to increased the speed of the two-handed sword, and he stabbed the opponent’s throat.  Since Lee-joonhyuk had gotten stuck on the armor last time, he now used quick and short attacks.

Lee-joonhyuk retreated when the Minion fell clutching its throat.

Boom!

A Minion’s axe had come down on Lee-joonhyuk’s previous location.  When Lee-joonhyuk saw the axe embed itself on the floor, he once again stabbed quickly with his two-handed sword.  However, the Minions weren’t stupid.

The other Minion stepped forward to deflect Lee-joonhyuk’s two-handed sword.  Lee-joonhyuk didn’t resist against the strength that deflected his two-handed sword, and he retreated backwards again.

He wanted to earn gold by taking them down, but he didn’t have a death wish.  Even if he took them down, they would only earn him around 1G.

Therefore, Lee-joonhyuk didn’t force it.

When Lee-joonhyuk retreated, the Minions’ morale went up.  They had thought they were at a disadvantage since Lee-joonhyuk’s capability was more outstanding.  Lee-joonhyuk calmed himself as he looked at their excited figures.

There were seven of them left, and his confidence rose as he was able to dodge their axes.  Their movements couldn’t escape his eyes.  Moreover, his extreme concentration allowed him to dodge their attacks.

However, he delivered a fatal blow each time, and the number of Minions decreased rapidly.

In a flash, there were only three minions left.  At that moment, he heard Atlan’s voice from behind the Minions.

“You still haven’t taken care of them?”

The Minions froze when they heard Atlan’s voice.  Even if they were aggressive, there was a clear limit to it.  They were basically frogs in front of Atlan, who was a snake.

Lee-joonhyuk laughed bitterly when he saw them freeze then he stepped forward.  Since they stopped moving, his enemies were very vulnerable.   The back handed slash didn’t need a lot of movement to execute, so it was hard to land a critical blow unless he aimed it towards the opponent’s vital points.

However, he was using his extreme concentration, and Lee-joonhyuk had grown up.  He slashed all three Minions in the throat, then he angled his two-handed sword to flick off the blood.

“What happened to Grangsha?”

“Of course, he is dead.”

Atlan spoke as he lifted his arm to show an anitque bracelet.”

“How much is that?”

“This? 32000G”

“I bet he is feeling a little bit nauseous.”

Vera spoke as she appeared behind Atlan.

“Nauseous?  He’s probably running around like a mad man when he realizes what he had lost.”

If a Minion dies, they fall into a coma in reality.  The body cannot wake up when the soul dies.  However, it was different for Heroes like Atlan and Vera.  Even if they were killed in the Dimensional Battlefield, they can be revived again.

Instead, they’ll drop items they had purchased with gold.  This was why they struggled to kill the opponent without dying.

Vera approached Lee-joonhyuk.  She extended her hands, then she hugged him.  His face was buried in her bosom, because of Vera’s height.

She let out a laugh when he struggled.

“I heard your ability has evolved?”

“Oomph. Please let me go.”

“You are pretty good even if you are a Novice.”

Lee-joonhyuk laughed bitterly as he spoke.

“What are you going to do?”

Vera turned back to speak.

“First, let’s clean up the battlefield then move.  It’s probably been spread that we’ve had a battle here.”

Vera sent her gaze toward Atlan.

“They’ll know about the gangking performed by Atlan, so they’ll all come here. This is why we should make ourselves scarce from here.”

“I understand.”

Lee-joonhyuk also wanted to escape this place in haste.  Vera spoke as she saw Lee-joonhyuk pick up the gold coins.

“I guess you properly trained with Atlan’s method?”

“I had no choice since I want to return alive.”

Vera smiled, then she looked at Kim-sarang.

“Hmm.  Who is this child?”

“She is a Minion, who came along for the ganking.”

Vera approached Kim-sarang.  Kim-sarang was 160cm tall.  Vera was over 2m tall, so she had to strain her neck to look up at her.

Vera bent her waist, so they were at the same eye-level.  While their eyes met, Vera opened her mouth.

“You are a child with a talent.”

Lee-joonhyu was surprised, so he asked Vera a question.

“She has the potential to become a Novice?”

“No.”

Vera shook her head as she answered him.

“Do you know there are several types of Minions?”

“Are you referring to the archers guarding the tower, and the normal Minions?”

Vera took out a staff from within her possessions.

“What is your name?”

Kim-sarang glanced to read Lee-joonhyuk’s countenance.  Kim-sarang carefully replied after Lee-joonhyuk nodded his head.

“My name is Kim-sarang.

“My name is Vera.  Take this.”

“What is it?”

Kim-sarang carefully received the staff.  Vera spoke as she looked at her.

“Focus your mind here.”

Kim-sarang focused her mind on the gem attached to the end of the staff.  However, there was no change.  Vera put her hand on Kim-sarang’s head as she spoke.

“Try focusing once again.”

Kim-sarang focused her mind again, and the staff with the gem at the end started to emit a light.  Vera grabbed Kim-sarang’s shoulders from behind.

“Can you feel the energy gathered there?”

“Yes.”

“Now think about throwing that.  Your target is that tree.”

Kim-sarang didn’t even have time to think about answering her.  She just thought about throwing the energy towards the tree.  From the end of staff held by Kim-sarang, a fist sized ball of light formed.  It flew towards the tree, and it collided.
