Episode 154. Prospects of the 7 guilds (1)
Loud buzz!
In front of the splendid mansion in the city center, there was no space to set foot due to the large number of people.
Players from various guilds and a group of reporters who came to film them.
And the onlookers snooping around to see if there has been any drop of bean curd.
It was a sight reminiscent of a Dottegi market.
“It’s a prom. Who would have thought there would be such a hidden event?”
“They say that only the most promising players in the world have received invitations. It was a total bonanza from our point of view.”
“Big. I know. Because all the famous people will gather in one place.”
“Is there any way to get inside? If you can do that, you should have won the scoop.”
Reporters smacked their lips with fire in their eyes.
I can’t help but be excited because I can see all the top rankers that are hard to see one at a time.
It would not be an exaggeration to say that this was the biggest scoop after the Tower of Trials appeared.
It was then.
that buck
Someone approached the gathered crowd.
A man with a strong physique with a sleek impression.
It was Yoshio Hoshikawa, the master of the Japanese samurai guild.
chump chump chump!
The camera flash flashed dazzlingly.
“come!”
“It’s Mr. Yoshio!”
“Oh oh! I am the master of the samurai guild!”
“The samurai guild rankers are here too!”
“thank god. Even one person can take a picture.”
A neat navy blue suit and brown shoes are in perfect harmony.
Yoshio stepped through the crowd with a face full of annoyance.
‘What kind of idiot has gathered so many people by spreading information?’
The prom is a hidden event.
In other words, there was no way for anyone other than the player receiving the invitation to even know that the ball was going to be held.
However, the fact that so many reporters and flies gathered must mean that someone who received the invitation leaked information.
Swearing soared up his throat at that stupidity, but right now, going inside was the priority.
‘I’d rather come wearing a mask.’
Due to the nature of the masquerade, it was a rule to wear a mask inside, but we did not prepare because we did not know that such a large crowd would come.
I thought I could just buy the right one inside.
chump chump chump chump!
The camera shutter flashed faster.
“Sheesh.”
Yoshio took out sunglasses from his inside pocket and put them on.
Because of the image of the guild, I couldn’t openly hate it, but I didn’t have the heart to hang out with such a game.
‘Gerbs with no dreams or future have only a lot of wishes…’
There are a lot of losers who just parasitize on other strong people and hope that they will save their future.
In fact, among the many players gathered here, isn’t there not a single one that’s useful?
If there was no strong man like himself, mankind would surely perish sooner or later.
But that was just then.
creepy
“…!?”
Goosebumps ran down Yoshio’s spine.
There is something between the crowd.
A monster with an aura sharp enough to freeze the air.
‘Did the guy with the invitation come?’
It was reasonable to assume that.
Because there was no way that an ordinary player would possess such absurd magical powers.
Yoshio focused his mind and searched for the source of magic.
…found.
dressed in a black suit.
And a pair of players whose white masks stand out.
‘Hoo.’
The female side barely felt any magic power, but the male side was really strong.
If you fight 1:1, you can’t guarantee the victory.
Up until now, he had competed with numerous rankers and had broken through various labyrinths and dungeons, but this was the first time he had been so excited.
so that. I was looking forward to it.
Where does the opponent actually belong?
And whether you will be a competitor or an ally. That’s all.
“Looks like you came to the ball too. My name is Yoshio Hoshikawa. I am in charge of the Japanese samurai guild.”
Yoshio’s words shocked the reporters.
“…uh?”
“what? Yoshio-san is talking to someone?”
“omg! That’s…”
The spotlight shifted the other way.
Everyone’s attention was focused on one place.
Exactly where Jinhyeok and Alice are.
＊＊＊
‘Yoshiora…’
Jinhyeok nodded slightly.
How could I not know?
The master of the Samurai Guild, Japan’s largest guild.
As I had heard, the aura forged like a knife was impressive.
The level is also high. Of course, the unique abilities and skills you have must be gorgeous.
‘As expected, it’s good for all rankers to gather.’
The masquerade was no different from a buffet with mint chocolate as the main theme, ice cream, shaved ice, sand macarons, and more.
Jinhyeok quickly activated ‘Eye of Gluttony’.

Now…
even the masters of the 7 s guilds are no match for their level.
‘I can’t catch up with my growth even with sheep hunting, which monopolizes all the game in the dungeon.’
Well, since all the bosses in charge of the next stairway are being held, the gap in level has no choice but to widen.
Considering the amount of time I spent getting the ‘gap’, the current level gap wouldn’t be just 3 levels.
‘There’s an adaptive type and newly acquired integer stats, so I guess it’s a completely different level.’
Even the world’s top rankers couldn’t dare.
It has grown to that extent.
but only one
The conditions for copying the opponent’s ability were still very difficult.
[Copy condition: Japan’s greatest sword Yoshio is a ranker representing Japan. In order to copy one of his unique abilities and skills, the following conditions must be met:]
Use someone other than yourself to subdue Yoshio. However, the other person here means the player.
If you fail, you may step in yourself, but in that case you will not be able to use any weapons you own. Instead, you must use one of the Forks, Chopsticks, Spoons, Pencils to knock out your opponents.
‘shit.’
To subdue someone else instead.
What kind of crazy guy is trying to fight the master of the 7th guild?
Besides, even if he succeeded in roasting someone with all sorts of slander and politics, subduing that samurai was another matter.
He could have stepped up on his own, but the fact that he had to pick and fight with such a ridiculous weapon was absolutely absurd.
‘kill.’
sure to kill
I don’t know anything else, but the guy who made up the system will definitely find it someday.
And I’m going to make him achieve all the copying conditions I’ve done so far.
If you experience it in person, you will be able to feel how crazy the high school student you are doing right now is.
Whoa….
Jinhyeok let out a sigh for a while, and soon cleared his mind.
It wasn’t like this once or twice, it’s because I thought it was going to happen now.
It was then.
“hey. Can’t you hear what big brother is asking? If someone asks, you have to answer. What disrespect is this?”
The man who had been attached to Yoshio like an attendant stepped out from behind.
Yoshio was also 180 cm tall, but this man was a completely different size.
He is about 210cm tall and weighs 150kg.
Speaking of sumo wrestlers, it was huge enough for everyone to understand.
“Tstomu. stop it.”
Yoshio lightly extended his hand.
However, the man called Tsutomura grunted with a dissatisfied face.
“I know your big brother is generous, but you don’t have to be that kind to these rude guys. Even Namgung-cheon of the Chinese Guild can’t do anything to his older brother, and these guys who can’t even see their faces dare to ignore the greeting that he first gave.”
“Tstomu!”
Yoshio raised his voice, but it was too late.
Because Jinhyeok wasn’t going to stay silent after hearing those words.
“Ha…”
It was when Jinhyeok opened his mouth to say something.
“If you go cowardly, you don’t hide behind it. It’s called a masquerade, but isn’t it stupid to go there and not wear a mask? More than that, I don’t know why an idiot who didn’t even get an invitation would intervene.”
Alice, who had been silent, interrupted.
“What?”
“Didn’t you hear the fat in your ears too? That bearded man also tells you not to do it, but it means that you should stay calm and not lose weight by going out for nothing. ah! don’t answer The smell of oil from your mouth is trying to annoy you.”
Mmm.
Still, at first, he was a noble and dignified vampire.
After hanging out together, I reached a point where I could put dill in my mouth at any moment.
‘It’s so dark…’
Jinhyeok shook his head, feeling some sense of responsibility.
The listeners clicked their tongues, so the person concerned must have been very angry.
As if to prove that expectation.
“Who the hell did this little bastard dare to say such a thing to!”
Tsutomu, whose face turned red, reached out his hand.
“I’ll smash that whole apple-sized head!”
[Tsutom activates Lv7 ‘One-Point Crushing’!]
Superpower that can turn even rocks into powder.
An attack with the weight unique to a sumo wrestler was developed.
But right before the palm grabbed Elise’s head.
“It’s ridiculous.”
A cold voice escaped Alice’s mouth.
at the same time.
Aaaaaang!
Something that defied gravity struck Tsutomu in the back of the head.
“Gagging!”
Even screaming for a while. The pressure beyond imagination was transmitted.
Does it feel like a giant invisible hand is squeezing you?
“Ew…”
A thick tendon popped out of Tsutomu’s forehead.
Still, like a high ranker, he used layers of defense skills. That was all.
Because Jinhyeok did not spare the supply of magic power, Alice was able to implement a fairly high-density skill.
No mere player could withstand Jinjo’s vexed attacks.
Cuckoo Cuckoo!
rattle!
Tsutomu’s whole body trembled, unable to exhale a single breath.
“Damn you little bastard? How dare you say that to Jim?”
“Turn it off…”
“Why can’t you talk? You used to play with your tongue so well until just a moment ago. Did the fat coagulate?”
The anger in his voice deepened.
blah blah… blah blah!
The ground began to crack like a tortoise shell.
At this rate…
that big man would be crushed to death.
In the end, Yoshio, who couldn’t see it, stepped out.
“I will firmly punish the rudeness of that friend. So how about we stop at this point? If we cross the line, nothing will be good for each other.”
“Why should I listen to that?”
Ellis snorted.
At that time, Jinhyeok added a word.
“it’s okay. stop. It’s almost midnight now, and I don’t have time to fuss here.”
“Ha but!”
“Ellis. I’m telling you to stop.”
“Oh, I see. I can’t.”
Elise gathered her magic.
“Ouch! Gagging! Cool….”
Tsutomu, who barely survived, collapsed onto the ground.
The tension that had been so tense was gone.
Yoshio’s face was still full of tension.
It had to be.
‘I thought women were just bridesmaids…’
That thought was completely wrong.
A completely different level of strength.
Even if it was you who was there, the result wouldn’t have changed.
Then…
how strong is the man that she can’t even move?
As the thought reached that point, dry saliva ran down Yoshio’s throat.
