Chapter 140 (2/2)
15 minutes later
“Hoonie, boy I understand that you’re happy to see [1]?”
Ian walked up with big strides to Hoonie, earing a resentful expression as he was surrounded by the ehts and Ian’s Familiars
“Don, don’t come any closer!”
“What if I don’t want to?”
Ian, who approached Hoonie with a sly expression, suddenly held out his staff
“You, I think if you get hit just once more, then you’ll die”
While looking at Ian, who openly threatened him, both of Hoonie’s pupils shook
“Ah, no… Don’t be like that!”
There was a separate reason why Hoonie convulsed(?) to this point
This was because thewith the hidden quest, he would have to return as a fail
Of course, the penalty for dying itself was quite big, but if it was a situation where it would end just with death, he wouldn’t have been this afraid
‘It’s a quest I worked so hard to obtain!’
To be honest, Hoonie didn’t even iine in his dreams that he would be overpowered this easily by Ian
Ian hier than he expected, but that white-haired swordsreatsas truly a catastrophe
Even Balla in, helplessly suffered by that white-haired swordsman
‘For Ballam, who is over lv 170, to have suffered in an instant…’
Collapsed onto the floor, Hoonie let out a deep sigh as he looked at his Vitality gauge bar that was blinking
“Whew…”
And secretly seeing that Hoonie wore a resigned expression, Ian secretly started
“Yo, should I let you live?”
“…!”
At Ian’s te proposal, Hoonie momentarily flinched
‘Should I let you live, he says… How hu!’
However, there was too ht now to stand on pride
Hoonie was a little sad, but he set aside his pride a little and asked Ian
“There are conditions, right?”
At his counter-question, Ian grinned as he nodded his head
“Man, you’re smart Of course, there are conditions”
Ian, who took a moment to breath, continued his words
“Firstly, you need to come into our party”
If he joined the party, the dungeon’s first discoverer’s reould become shared
Because Hoonie also knehat Ian’s condition meant, he meekly nodded his head
Up to this point, there wasn’t much for him to lose
“And?”
Ian’s words continued
“All artifacts that appear in the dungeon, including the Holdream’s Holy Grail, are mine”
At those words, Hoonie slightly flinched
“I can’t do that”
This was because, if he couldn’t obtain the Crown of Holdrea theeon
Ian wore a puzzled expression
“Why? On top of you not dying, you’ll even gain an incredible amount of EXP if you party hunt with us, but you can’t even do that much?”
Hoonie continued his words with a timid expression
“The Crown of Holdreaive me that”
At Hoonie’s words, Ian’s two eyes shone
While looking at Hoonie, who pointed out a particular artifact that he didn’t even know existed, Ian nodded his head
‘As expected, this guy, it’s positive that he knows inforeon’
Ian, who thought that he did a good job letting Hoonie survive, opened his two eyes blearily
“Why do you need that?”
Hoonie spoke honestly
“I need it for ive up all of the rest”
Ian who answered with an apathetic expression
“How can I believe you?”
However, as even Hoonie couldn’t give up any
“If I’oing to just stand there when I’ve taken an ite it around?”
“That’s not true…”
Ian, who thought momentarily, finally nodded his head
“Alright Then, in return, find us Holdrea the other artifacts excluding the crown Then I will also help you find your crown”
Because there was no other choice no matter how h as he slowly nodded his head
“Whew… Alright, understood”
Meanwhile, the eastern part of the central continent
The titan Guild expedition, who had succeeded in killing the floodingit to the central continent, were having trouble finding the historical site easily
“No, where exactly is the historical site?”
Ceilron, who had killed the charging monks and mummies one after another, coic next to him
“If I knew that, do you think I would be like this?”
In a sense, because they had entered the central continent blindly without any thorough preparations, nopower, their health was depleting over time
The only consolation was probably the large amount of EXP that couldn’t even be coround
And the commodity, ‘Specialty Points’, which they didn’t know about yet, also comforted them
“It should be around here so just a little bit more”
Shyakran, who encouraged his guild hter the monsters in the front line
Bang-ba-ba-bang-!
The large explosive soundmid-air was heard
And the incredible wave of energy that arose for a moment scattered the front
Chwa-ra-rak-
Emily, who saw that, shook her head
“Shyakran seeain”
Ceilron nodded his head as well
“I think he’s definitely gotten stronger than before Has he gotten a new ite?”
While sharing a conversation on this and that, it was right then while they were facing monsters
A titan Guild member that was in the back of the line yelled towards Ceilron
“Ceilron, there’s so over there!”
At that sound, the eyes of all of the people, including Ceilron, turned towards the direction that they pointed at
And Emily, who saw that, shouted with a happy voice
“Shyakran, it seems we’ve found the ruins!”
A tall spire that shot up in thestructures that wrapped around it…
However, Shyakran, who saw that, shook his head
“No, Emily That is not the historical site”
“Huh?”
However, different from Emily’s expression of disappointment, Shyakran wore an exited expression
‘If the inforht, then that is the Tower of War Since the situation is like this anyways, instead of the Holy Grail…!’
