Chapter 161 (2/2)
Upon seeing this, Sungjin simply said,
“Soldamyr.”
Soldamyr snapped his fingers, and Sungjin, who had been flying at low-altitude, began to free-fall. He landed on the ground and rolled once.
“What… What’s that?”
“It’s that guy from before!”
Upon seeing Sungjin, the demons were split between those who stood their ground
“Revenge for the Commander!”
And those who wanted to flee.
“Ru… Run away!”
There was already a rule that had been set for this. Sungjin fought the demons that wanted to fight him, while Cain and Soldamyr fought against the demons that wanted to flee.
“Woof Woof!”
“Hand of Dead.”
There was a total of four demons that charged toward Sungjin. However, Sungjin had already fought against an enemy force of over a hundred demons, as well as an old Dragon just a short time ago.
To him, these four demons were like eating a cake after having eaten the main dish. Sungjin easily dominated the demons and moved forwards. He sliced the throats of the first two demons that approached with one strike. The third demon that came just had a single chance to attack, but Sungjin leaned backwards and used Moon Specter to block it.
‘Clang’
Afterwards, he fluidly turned once and used Blood Vengeance with his right hand to pierce through the demon’s heart.
“Kuh…”
The fourth demon, who saw all of this, lost his will to fight. Though he was one of the four demons that had enthusiastically charged, he revealed his back and began to flee. However, Cain appeared out of nowhere and swooped down on the demon.
“Woof!”
“Aaaahh!”
Cain pinned down the demon’s arms with his front paws, before gruesomely tearing out the demon’s throat with his teeth. With that, the nearby demons were annihilated. In order to maintain the current speed, Sungjin immediately said to Soldamyr,
“Soldamyr, let’s go.”
However, Cain called out to Sungjin.
“Woof Woof.”
“Hrm?”
When Sungjin tilted his head, an alarm rang out from the Operator’s Cube.
[Congratulations. Raid 100% complete]
[Beginning reward distribution.]
[Monsters slain. Demon…]
“Aah, we’re finished. Cain, Soldamyr. Great job.”
At Sungjin’s words, Cain approached Sungjin and rubbed its head against him, while Soldamyr bowed his head.
“It’s my pleasure.”
[Ahtrin – The Prince’s Flag]
[Luyo – The Blind Man’s Lost Shoe]
Sungjin took a brief glimpse at the items that appeared before placing them inside the Cube.
[Congratulations! Legendary Item…]
Each of the items that he received was of the Legendary-tier, but Sungjin did not find anything that seemed to be worth using. Rather using them himself, he thought about his allies as he picked them up.
‘This… Mahadas should be able to put it to good use.’
[Last but not the least, you will be awarded titles you’ve earned on this raid.]
[Executioner – Deal 3x damage to enemies that have less than 10% HP remaining.]
It was not likely that decent titles would appear now. It might be because even though he had a similar level of performance, he had already received all the better titles. After having finished distribution, the Operator’s voice could be heard.
[Returning to the Hunter’s Hall in 1 mi…]
Sungjin spoke up before it finished speaking.
“Ahh, Operator. I’ll return at the original time.”
The Operator then changed the time.
[Returning to the Hunter’s Hall in 1 hour and 52 minutes.]
If it was 1 hour and 52 minutes, then he should be able to help the other hunters safely finish their raids. And if he had some time left after that, then he could also go troll hunting. Having finished everything in his own dimension, Sungjin took out the Sceptre of the Warlord from the Cube. He was curious about how his allies were doing.
“Inspection”
Soon, the figures of five hunters began to appear in front of Sungjin’s eyes. The hunters were still engaged in guerilla warfare. They were doing well. The guerilla warfare, in the beginning, could decide victory or defeat in the boss fight. He had also told them,
‘Proceed as carefully as you can.’
However, when he looked closely, one party, Serin’s, seemed a bit strange. Instead of being on the lookout for demons, they were searching along the riverside where he had previously met the Dragon. This appearance suggested that they were searching for the Hidden Piece after killing the normal Boss.
‘No way? Did they already kill the boss?’
Serin’s party was usually the fastest to clear the raids. Not only was she incredibly skilled, but she also held one of the three ‘Unique Legendary’ books, ‘Arabian Nights’. If you included a good party, it was not an impossible thing.
‘I guess… Things turned out well.’
It seemed that he did not have to worry about Serin from here on. Though she still had the Hidden Boss remaining, with his current condition he was unable to help her. Also, it was likely that nothing would happen since he had told them,
‘If you meet the Hidden Boss, don’t challenge him and just run.’
Since one member had safely finished the raid, he could concentrate on the other four members. Sungjin was about to leave her alone and turn his attention to the other hunters, when at that moment, he sensed that something was out of place.
‘What was that?’
He looked once more at Serin’s monitor. And at that time, he finally discovered it. The person standing next to Serin, Edward.
