29. Paid 5x Draw (4)
“Hang…”
I kicked the sword hilt stuck in Avant’s back.
“Quaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!”
“You have to be honest. You can’t hear me.”
“Stop it. We lost! Leave Avant alone!”
“Leave me alone?”
I held the tip of the sword hilt and turned it. The wound opened with the sound of flesh being torn. Avant only let out a groan.
“Did you guys just think of leaving people alone? They’re so eager to eat you.”
“Well, that has nothing to do with it!”
“If I have a relationship, then there is. And it’s a duel that we both agreed on, so why are you guys arguing? It’s up to the parties concerned to decide whether to stop or not. If the loser says he lost, then it’s over.”
“Hangbo… Eup!”
I shut Avant’s mouth.
“If you don’t talk, it won’t end.”
The mercenaries looked at me with dumbfounded faces.
I sat on Avant’s back. Avant twisted his body, as if that alone hurt.
“This guy is my prey. Don’t care if he dies or not. Go to sleep.”
“Crazy bastard! Do you think you’ll be safe even after doing this! You know who we are!”
“Did you say maned wolf mercenaries?”
I looked at Edith. She had her head bowed with a stiff face. I asked.
“Edith, are maned wolves really a mercenary?”
Edith closed her eyes and said,
“It was like that in the past. Now, now it’s just…”
“It’s a group of bandits. Or go round the back of the client’s head. I knew it. What are you doing hanging out with them? ”
“I-I’m at your father’s request…”
“Edith. Think carefully. Are you going to hang out with that scumbag? Or are you coming over here?”
“I…”
“Where is this bitch trying to shake her ass at the enemy! Do you want to die!”
“The killifish is noisy.”
“You bastard…! Edith, you should decide carefully. You know what the traitor said, right?”
“This is what garbage says.”
I hit Avant on the back of the head.
“Come this way. I just needed one, and that’s great.”
“You know the cost of betrayal, Edith!”
“…”
Edith raised her eyes as if determined and walked in front of me. I said with a smile.
“As expected, people have to be able to walk the rope well.”
[‘Edith (★★★)’ is leaving the ‘Maned Wolf Mercenary Corps’!]
[The relationship ‘Maned Wolf Mercenary Corps’ will be disbanded.]
“Damn it…”
“I have nothing to do with the rest of you. Get out of here. .”
“Hang…”
“But is it really okay if I tell you? You’ll get eaten by me.”
Avant groped the floor with his right arm. Avant’s sword fell not far away. I trampled on the back of his hand.
“Kkeuugh! You, me, after touching me, you’ll regret it… Kkeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!”
I grabbed the sword stuck in Avant’s wingbone and turned it around.
“It’s annoying now. Tell me quickly.”
“No, no!
“This, this guy! This guy, hey hey hey!”
The three men drew their weapons and charged.
Isel blocked his way.
[The duel is not over! Don’t interfere!]
“Get out of the way, you bastard, I’ll kill you if you interfere!”
Jaqen swung an ax at Issel’s head.
The other two also stabbed spears and swords from the side.
and.
‘It’s caught.’
“bye.”
[‘Jaken (★★★)’ has returned to the arms of the goddess. His fighting spirit will be remembered forever.]
[‘Waif (★★★)’ returned to the arms of the goddess. His fighting spirit will be remembered forever.]
[‘Baignin (★★★)’ returned to the arms of the goddess. His fighting spirit will be remembered forever.]
[Sudden death!]
[Cause – suicide due to stress]
[I told him not to interfere. Don’t look at it twice.]
Three corpses with missing heads were scattered in the square. Issel brushed off the blood on his hands with emotionless eyes. Then it flew towards me with twinkling eyes.
[How about Loki! Are you just cool? good job? How was it!]
“Good job.”
[Be careful!]
Issel turned around and disappeared on the spot.
I turned my gaze to Avant. Avant looked at his colleague’s corpse with empty eyes and murmured.
“Resist… revenge…”
Avant’s head dropped.
[‘Han( )’ has been removed from the berserk state.]
I dragged the droopy Avant and took it to the synthetic lab. The guy didn’t resist.
[‘Han( )’ won the duel with ‘Avant(★★★)’! Avant will be synthesized.]
Several ripples appeared on the master’s control panel.
It’s just randomly touching the screen.
‘You must want to cancel.’
If that’s the case, you shouldn’t have allowed it in the first place. I don’t think I even knew there was a dueling system.
[Synthesis completed!]
[‘Avant (★★★)’ turns into light and disappears.]
[‘Han( )’ level up! ‘Low Swordsmanship’ and ‘Pain Resistance’ skills increased!]
[The hero has reached the limit level. If you want to level up further, level up!]
[Tips/You can level up with an Upgrade Stone or a Hero with a certain level or higher in the same class. Promotion is possible up to 7 stars.]
I came out to the plaza and laughed.
I lost the high-level heroes I picked for the first time without even rolling them properly. Looking at the free 10-line drawing solely for synthesis, it seems that I was expecting quite a bit.
But what about It was a joke.
No matter how much you grow, you will only lose. I don’t know if there will be a temporary power increase, but if those guys come out, the waiting room won’t work properly. You will appreciate me when you know the truth later.
‘You must know that I am the cause.’
I am level 10
He has 4 skills, and his overall stats are already approaching 3 stars.
Won MVP in almost every battle.
I made C-class equipment that Amkena couldn’t even dare to do now, and I collected a lot of rare materials in the daily dungeon.
‘If you’re going to go, change.’
If you’re stupid enough to grind me in this situation, you can’t climb the top anyway.
The corpse in the plaza gradually turned to light and disappeared.
Edith was looking at the scene with a confused expression.
“Did you have any companions?”
“No, but I was one of them…”
It doesn’t matter much.
It’s just the past. I haven’t lived a clean life either.
“Come in when you calm down. Find an empty room on your own.”
I passed Edith and went back to the inn.
It was very late. As soon as I opened the door, the eyes of dozens of people in the lobby turned to me at once. A lot of people had gathered.
‘what.’
“As expected, my older brother is amazing!”
Dicka clenched her fists. The eyes were bright.
‘Haa, I really can’t stop it.’
I walked over to Jenna, who was sitting on the sofa.
And he tugged at his cheek without mercy.
“Ah, ayayayayaya! What are you doing!”
“Didn’t I say something useless?”
“It’s only getting worse when you live with your tongue!”
When I let go of my hand, Jenna rubbed her reddened cheeks and said,
“I was trying to convey the coolness of my brother.”
“Fuck it.”
I punched Jenna’s forehead.
Jenna frowned and grabbed her forehead.
A middle-aged man approached while I was aung daung.
It was Joffrey, whom I had heard earlier.
“Ha, Mr. Han. I heard about it. Thank you. I heard about their behavior. They threatened to kill the people who just arrived…” “That’s right
! He was such a bad guy!”
The lady who was sitting in the corner of the lobby said. He was one of those people who almost died in the square just before.
“I see you’re mistaken.”
“I know. We’re not that shameless either. But we just want to say thank you. Because of you, we live.”
“The only ones I’ve saved are still freshmen. I have nothing to do with you guys.”
“What do you mean?”
I said with a grin.
“Because the master seems to be really pissed off.”
[Start master synthesis.]
[Drag and drop the hero to be sacrificed to the hero you want to synthesize! You can get experience points. The sacrificed hero will perish.]
Isel’s cry was heard from the plaza.
[Louis Joffrey Owen Andio Arnold Duncan Harold! 6 people like this. Gather in front of me!]
The faces of the people whose names were called turned pale.
Joffrey looked back, sweating.
“Mo, everyone’s fine! We’re going to catch the goblins as always.”
“Do you really think so?”
Joffrey’s body stiffened.
This guy is quick-witted. That’s why I was able to act shrewdly. If so, you probably know what it means to call 6 people now.
If you intended to send a sub party, you only need to call 5 people. However, the number of people that Isell called just now is 6 people in total. One person overflows.
So the purpose changes.
“We split into pairs of 3 people…”
“Your head is a very flower garden.”
I walked slowly to the sofa in the middle of the lobby. Every time I walked, people backed away and got out of the way. A few people sitting on the sofa got up and walked away as if they were running away.
Jenna is the only one sitting on the sofa. I sat down next to him and crossed my legs.
“How long did you think you’d be able to get over it?”
“Ooh, we did our best!”
“Aaron, Dicka! From your point of view, did they really give their best? What were they doing while you guys were sweating at the training camp all day?”
Two could not answer.
I just lowered my head in the corner of the lobby.
“Jenna! Have I ever properly helped you on your hunt?”
“I did carry the meat and skins I slaughtered.”
“Even pigs and dogs can carry it. In that respect, you guys seem to have only as much value as pigs and dogs.”
“A pig and a dog!”
I kicked the one stepping forward as I got up.
It rolls over and rolls across the carpet floor.
“Don’t grumble.”
Louis grabbed the crotch of his trousers and stretched.
“Help us! If it’s your request, the Master will do it too!”
[Come out to the square! Can’t hear me! There is no end to these things!]
Isel appeared and shouted.
[Louis Joffrey Owen Andio Arnold Duncan! Come out quickly if you don’t want to get scolded!]
“What are you trying to do with us?”
[What do you ask? Synthesis.]
‘The subject must be Edith.’
The freshly summoned Edith has a low level. It was a reasonable action. Every time a new high-ranking hero was summoned, a pile of useless low-level heroes would be sacrificed.
“I’m not going, I’m not going!”
Those nominated for sacrifice fled into the inn. Issel smiled like a mischievous child and grabbed them one by one and sent them flying through the open door into the plaza. A few others pulled the doorknob on the room in the hallway, but the door wouldn’t open.
In the end, all six of them went to the plaza.
and.
[Synthesis completed!]
[‘Lewis ( )’ becomes light and disappears.]
[‘Joffrey ( )’ becomes light and disappears.]
[‘Owen ( )’…]
[‘Edith ( )’ ★★★)’ Level up! Trap release skill acquisition!]
Static.
The lobby was quiet.
I said.
“It doesn’t matter who you were until you came here. Rich or poor. Leave all that out.”
“….”
“Don’t think that you are going to be put on top.
Suddenly, one of the people hiding among the people came out, wiping away tears.
“I have no talent for fighting. Even holding a sword makes me tremble. What should I do! Are you telling me to die!”
“Chloe. Enoch. Alter. Patrick.”
The eyes of the people whose names were called turned to me.
Four assistants in the current waiting room. Each is a cook, carpenter, blacksmith, and tanner.
“If anyone wants to, teach them the technique.”
“Blacksmithing isn’t that easy to learn…”
said the white-bearded man. It was Alter, who was in charge of the blacksmith.
“If you have the will, you can learn on your own.”
Repeated actions in the waiting room are reborn as skills. This means that skill acquisition is fast.
“Come to me if you want to fight. I’ll beat you up. If you want to learn hunting and butchering, go to Zena, if you want to learn carpentry, go to Enoch.
[Are you sure you want to terminate the connection to the master?]
[Yes (optional) / No]
[Then, goodbye!]
The sky became dark.
One by one, people disappeared into the room. A dark shadow was cast over their faces.
The ones left in the lobby are me, Jenna, Aaron and Dicka.
Jenna, who was sitting next to her, said.
“Your brother is kind.”
“Me? That’s funny.”
“You taught me how to live.”
That’s not wrong.
If you do as I say, you won’t die so absurdly. It was just Amkena’s anger, but
if it wasn’t today, they would be disposed of someday.
Deca murmured.
“Brother, we…”
“You guys just do what you do.”
“thank you.”
‘I didn’t want to do such a troublesome thing.’
My head is about to explode just because of my work.
I thought of Edith standing idly by in the plaza. Did you say that he was from a mercenary group?
The 10th floor is slowly approaching.
It was time for a second party.
It’s not just a party that doesn’t sound like a sub, just what I said so far, it’s a powerful force that can compete with the main party.
