Chapter 114 - Romian’s Betrayal (1/2)

Even though there were only two monsters, they were not to be made light of. Their strength was the reason there are only two.

These monsters can also be said to be very dangerous to humans.

– Look! It’s a human!

– Hahaha! Sister, it’s my turn now!

– What?! Why?

‘Do all the succubus wear clothes like that?’

The two monsters were succubuses. They wore very exposing clothing, and Soo Hyuk’s face was turning red.

– Before we came here. Remember? I yielded a human to you!

– Oh….

Watching the two succubuses, Soo Hyuk cast a spell.

“Poison Storm.”

– But that was 50 years ago.

They were still continuing their conversation, but not any longer.

– Ahhh!!!

– It hurts!!!

The two succubuses flew with all their might to get out of the Poison Strom.

Flying through the storm’s strong winds, they managed to get out of the spell, but what awaited them was a chain of poison.

“Poison Chain.”

Since the proficiency rose, the chains were much faster than when he used it against the werewolves. The two monsters were already injured from the storm and were slowed. Thus they couldn’t dodge the chains.

The chain hit one of the succubuses and then spread to the other.

The two let out a scream and dropped to the ground.

“Poison Spear, Fire Spear.”

The spear pierced and exploded, and a notification appeared.

– Feather with a Succubus’s Mana x12

The item they dropped was a foundational item for spirit magic and cost quite a lot.

‘Twelve of them…’

Normally, each monster drops five to seven feathers, so twelve from two was an average number.

‘I can make a fortune with these.’

Just by the loot from the monsters can make quite a lot of money.

‘Even if the reward is bad, there’s nothing to regret.’

Soo Hyuk already obtained a lot of exp and money, so even if the reward was disappointing, it would be fine. But of course, with this difficulty, it would be impossible for the reward to be bad.

‘If a monster comes out…, I’m gonna finish tomorrow.’

Soo Hyuk had to catch six groups. That meant he couldn’t finish tonight. If he stayed up all

night, then it was possible, but Soo Hyuk did not intend to do so.

***

After a few minutes, Soo Hyuk stopped his step because he heard some noises.

Soo Hyuk made a confused face.

‘Are they fighting?’

The noise was the sound of metal clashing with metal. Soo Hyuk thought the monsters might be fighting against each other.

‘What kind of monsters are they?’

Walking towards the sound, Soo Hyuk was wondering what kind of monster would make this sound.

‘Hmmmn?’

Arriving at the source of the sound, Soo Hyuk was surprised at the familiar figure.

A man was using a hammer and a chisel breaking the wall.

‘Romian? But how?’

‘He said this path was shorter.’

Romian went to the trap path and told Soo Hyuk the monster path was shorter.

Soo Hyuk kept walking nonstop, but how did Romian arrive first.

At that moment, a new quest was generated.

[Quest ‘Romian’s True Intention’ has been created.]

‘What is this?’

Seeing the message, Soo Hyuk was surprised and opened the quest window to check the

content of the quest.

***

‘This is the end,’

The preparations for the exploration were over.

‘Huh?’

Finishing the preparations, Romain returned to the hideout and frowned.

Hiding his presence, Romian saw people spying on something.

‘What’s this? Those people…Are they spying on the hideout?’

‘Is it Heron? Yes, that should be it.’

Thinking about the current situation, only Heron came to Romian’s mind.

‘What should I do…?’

While Romian was wondering, a man approached the hideout and knocked on the door. Then Haccid came out and was greeted with an attack. The remaining men rushed into the hideout afterward.

At the sudden change of events, Romian turned around and ran towards the second hideout that was prepared for a situation like this.
