Part 2 Episode 22
Taehyun honestly didn’t expect that Kwon Kang-hyuk of this world would be this reckless.
‘Go through that on the second floor and repeat it again.’
The good news is that this time, the opponent is not a ghost sword, but a ghost sword that is rated a few numbers lower.
‘You don’t seem like the type of person who starts a fight while trying to pick out the other person… His recklessness is too much.’
At this level, we might have to congratulate the other person for their patience.
“Guild leader Kwon Kang-hyuk. “There are many eyes watching.”
It meant that since there are many eyes watching, you should be selective about what you say.
“Originally, at a party of this size, you have to make sure that you have a clear hierarchy.”
Kwon Kang-hyuk twitched the corner of his mouth and threw it away.
The combined size of the parties in New Korea and Japan is well over 500 people.
With this many people, minor complaints are bound to pile up during the expedition.
The problem is that the ranking arrangement is disadvantageous to New Korea?
‘Are you the type of person who only thinks about one thing and not the other?’
Taehyun felt like he had finished understanding Kwon Kanghyuk in less than a day after meeting him.
“How do you feel? “Would you like to become a representative?”
“He’s like a golden beast. “It makes me wonder how dirty your foul mouth can become.”
Wild beasts and fantastic swords.
The two S-rank players continued to slander each other.
Taehyun ignored the situation where blood seemed to splatter at any moment and headed toward the saint.
“Could you please stop the sword?”
“Hmm~ The pride of the Hwanggeom is no less than that of the Demon Sword. “Not considering the prosecutor’s pride can be said to be a shallow act.”
In short, it means that I don’t want to stop you.
The saintess, smiling brightly, added.
“But if Kim Tae-hyun has the heart to serve me. “I may be able to avoid the situation while protecting Hwangeom’s pride.”
The saintess’s eyes were smiling, but it was not difficult to grasp the greed hidden within them.
“Now that I think about it, the bet I made with Guild Leader Yoo Ah-young on the second floor ended in a draw.”
The saint’s eyebrows twitched at the sudden words.
Even if it’s a draw, it’s actually the same as her defeat.
“What does it mean to suddenly say something like that? “I am quite soft-hearted.”
She placed her hands on her chest and her eyes were bright.
How disgusting that sight was.
“Yoshikawa Tsurara. I offer you a bet.”
“oh! Is it true?”
The saintess smiled brightly and smiled as if she had never done that before.
“Tae Taehyun…!!”
“hey. wait for a sec.”
Kwak Si-yang and Yoo Ah-young are embarrassed.
and.
“….”
The ghost sword, whose mouth was still closed, looked at Taehyeon with sunken eyes.
* * *
“Oh, by the way.”
The saintess, who seemed ready to accept the offer at any moment, spoke with a somber expression.
“Why are you talking to me like that? “What I’m angry about is Hwangeom.”
“I thought you wanted me?”
“oh. I was just curious about Taehyun Kim. “That and Hwangeom’s pride are separate.”
New Korea’s players, including Kwon Kang-hyuk, could not help but be taken aback by the sight of them bursting into laughter.
This is because the saintly woman drew a line with Hwangeom, making it difficult to stop the fight through her.
If they were unable to stop the two and a fight broke out between party members, the joint mission could have ended.
‘That’s why it’s so difficult.’
Taehyun shook his head.
It’s not like I don’t know the saint’s personality. This level of trickery was within the expected range.
Taehyun placed his mouth next to the saint’s ear.
and.
Very small.
“Are you planning on writing a holy revelation?”
I whispered.
Surprise appeared on the saint’s face.
It’s like an expression that says, ‘How can you do that?’
The bait has been thrown.
“If you don’t feel like it, shall we talk to Hwangeom?”
The saint’s eyes were curved like a crescent moon.
“oh. Why do you go through all that trouble now? “You can talk to me.”
“You said that a long time ago.”
Grinning.
Smirk.
The saint and Taehyun smiled and exchanged glances.
“So what bet do you want to make?”
“If guild leader Kwon Kang-hyuk and Hwangeom fight like this, it will be against the association’s pledge. “I hope that New Korea and Japan will pass the 3rd floor and break through the 4th floor together.”
“Oh my. You seem to have the same thoughts as me. “If we can go beyond the 4th floor and reach the 5th floor, the alliance between Japan and New Korea will become even stronger.”
‘The firm is a piece of shit.’
Rather, it is highly likely that they will expose their teeth to eat away competitors.
But joint missions are business.
Revealing personal feelings here is nothing more than admitting that one is on the same level as guild leader Kwon Kang-hyuk.
“For that, we need to get to know each other.”
Taehyun looked at Kwon Kanghyuk.
He was looking at the current situation in bewilderment.
No, not only that, but all of the Onsaemiro guild members and Japanese players.
I was concentrating on the conversation between Taehyeon and the saint.
“I propose a friendly match.”
“Oh my, the word nostalgic came out. “Have you thought about the conditions?”
“The winner gets to use whoever they want for a day.”
The saint’s lips twitch at the unconventional suggestion.
Okay, he looks like he’s about to die.
“2 to 2. Let’s do it one game.”
“Aha. Are you really planning on participating in person?”
“Wouldn’t it be difficult if the party making the pact were to leave out? How is it? Would you like to team up with Hwangeom and take on me and guild leader Kwon Kang-hyeok?”
The saintess burst into laughter at Taehyun’s provocation.
“How can it be so provocative? “Do you think Kim Tae-hyun wants me as a prize for a bet?”
The saint placed her hand on her chest.
It was as if she had become a virgin herself.
“That’s right.”
Taehyun nodded as if it was obvious.
at the same time.
Cooung.
Whoops.
Two huge fighters weighed down Taehyun.
Ghost sword and ghost sword.
It was the energy emitted by the two prosecutors.
Taehyun’s face frowned under the pressure, as if his knees were about to buckle at any moment.
The saintess’s smile deepened.
“Kim Tae-hyun. “Can you handle what I just said?”
It was a meaningful warning that once you become your slave, you cannot escape.
This is the moment when Taehyun tries to protect his body by surrounding himself with magic.
“That’s rude.”
“Where?”
“I am the opponent of the idiots.”
Yoo Ah-young, Kwak Si-yang, and Kwon Kang-hyuk came to Tae-hyeon’s side.
Three S-rank players representing New Korea.
The fighting spirit unleashed by the three guild leaders blocked the momentum of the ghost sword and the ghost sword.
‘….’
I laughed at the combination that reminded me of the past.
The timeline got twisted and crashed.
They have no memories of the time they spent together.
He is still using his power by his side.
Therefore, Taehyun should not show weakness either.
“Saint.”
Taehyun took a step towards her and pressed his face to her.
The ghost sword and the sword sword started shouting something.
The three guild leaders deployed their magical powers to buy time.
“Are you scared?”
The saint’s eyebrows and eyes begin to tremble.
Taehyun quietly faced the shaking without missing it.
I waited for the answer to come out of her lips.
“You will regret it. Taehyun Kim.”
“No way.”
like that.
The stage was set for a friendly match between Korea and Japan, unknown even to the two association presidents.
* * *
Preparation went smoothly.
The three guild leaders representing New Korea players agreed, and the Ghost Sword and Hwangeom representing Japanese players agreed.
Rather, Hwangeom seemed happy to be able to prove his feelings with the saint.
“Hey… I followed along for now, but why did you do that?”
Yoo Ah-young asked belatedly.
She joined the camp as Onsaemi and showed a worried expression that she had been hiding all along.
The same goes for Kwak Si-yang.
“I’m… worried too. “Even if martial arts is not the main force, the saintess is the power of the nation.”
And Hwangeom, a martial arts type, forms a team together.
On the Japanese side, it was a configuration that could be said to be optimized for 2 vs 2.
“Now, can you tell me who this guy is? “You’re not an ordinary B-class porter, are you?”
Kwon Kang-hyuk pointed at Tae-hyeon and looked at Kwak Si-yang and Yoo Ah-young.
It was a feeling of innocence, devoid of any tension from the friendly match that would take place two days later.
“Guild leader Kwon Kang-hyuk. “Do you really have the intelligence of a beast?”
“Hehe. “A wild beast is better than a fox in many ways.”
Kwon Kang-hyuk lightly dismissed Yoo Ah-young’s provocation.
“Huh… how did things end up like this?”
“So, do you want me to tell you who I am?”
“Hmm…”
At Kwon Kang-hyuk’s urging, Kwak Si-yang briefly summarized the events so far.
Taehyun’s national power level potential and runaway.
From the bet with Ji Jin-hee to the bet between Seongnyeo and Yoo Ah-young that took place on the second floor.
Kwon Kang-hyuk heard all that and burst out laughing like an animal.
“For some reason, there was no hesitation in his actions. “I couldn’t believe it, but he was related to a quest given by the tower manager, right?”
“Shh. “Try to lower your voice.”
Kwak Si-yang said this and strengthened the curtain around him.
This is because they are concerned that their conversation may be leaked.
“good. Taehyun Kim. “This fox helped me not lose the bet, so there must be a way this time too, right?”
Yoo Ah-young rolled her eyes at his rude attitude, but Kwon Kang-hyuk didn’t care and looked at Tae-hyeon.
“What if we lose?”
“what?”
“Anyway, the terms of the bet are me and the saint. There will be no damage to New Korea.”
Let’s talk about Taehyun as if it’s no big deal.
“What a bastard.”
“Taehyun?”
“Hey…”
The three guild leaders looked speechless.
Among them, Kwon Kang-hyuk had the most absurd expression.
It doesn’t matter that Taehyun becomes the saint’s daily slave, but he has to suffer a humiliating defeat in front of all his guild members.
If you’re unlucky, you might end up on your knees.
“That’s not allowed!! “If you’re going to do something like that, change the player!!”
Kwon Kang-hyuk looked at Kwak Si-yang and Yoo Ah-young.
“Didn’t you see the Awakened Pact being made? The friendly match is in two days. Guild leader Kwon Kang-hyuk and me. “There are two players.”
“Shit…” Kwon Kang
-hyuk cursed at the sight of Tae-hyun speaking confidently.
“Well, I don’t plan on losing either.”
“This thing is said to lift and release people.”
“As expected… I thought you had a plan.”
Yoo Ah-young and Kwak Si-yang’s eyes lit up.
As he did in the labyrinth on the second floor, he expects Taehyun to come up with an unexpected trick.
They already considered Taehyun to be an equal player or better than them.
It was an attitude from the perspective of Kwon Kang-hyuk, who had never seen Tae-hyun’s skills in person.
“bantling. “You can win, right?”
“It depended on what guild leader Kwon Kang-hyeok did.”
“I?”
“The heart of a beast. “What is the strongest monster currently registered as a skill?”
What do you think of my skills?
There was no need to ask that question.
Kwon Kang-hyuk calmly revealed his strengths.
“It’s the Minotaur Queen.”
Rather, it was Taehyun who was surprised by the answer.
Minotaur Queen.
It is a monster evaluated as the highest level S class, and its physical strength is comparable to that of the Bone Dragon.
This is because he has already taken down the monster that he had attacked together with himself in the past.
‘indeed. ‘You have enough to show confidence.’
If that’s the case, Hwangeom will be able to win somehow.
But it is too much for a saint.
“The Minotaur Queen cannot subjugate the saint.”
“what? “Do you know how much of a monster that guy was?”
“The saint has two S-rank skills. Even if you use just one of them, you cannot defeat Guild Master Kwon Kang-hyuk.”
“Fuck you. So what are we going to do? Now you’re telling me to imitate an SS-rank monster? Within two days?!!”
Taehyun shook his head at Kwon Kanghyuk’s shout.
“Do you know that he is the Demon Beast King?”
“what…?”
“It has to be that much to meet the national power level.”
Demon Beast King Orgal.
If only Kwon Kang-hyuk could use even a portion of that power.
‘You can eat enough of a saint and a sword by steaming it.’
