80.

First, I’ll check the ‘Affinity Quest’ later. First, I’ll deal with the woman in front of me – the top contractor.

‘She’s good at shadow magic. And she can control monsters.’

She’s a woman like a general.

What if you give me an opening and I summon a mob?

There is no way to respond when a melee breaks out.

If Kang Mi-young was also treated like that, how much worse must it be for me?

“First, let’s have a power struggle.”

The woman who put the leash on Kang Mi-young smiled bitterly.

After a while, he lifted his foot and slammed it down hard. A large shock wave spread out in all directions. One of the branches flew towards me.

The ground rose and fell repeatedly like waves.

“Mr. Seonghan!”

“Everyone, roll sideways to my signal.”

“Yes!”

It’s tricky. I can’t tell if it’s a physical attack or a mental attack.

It was handed over to the crossing camp that could block it.

[‘Auto Battle’ rolls up its sleeves.]

[‘Super-Reconnaissance’ shouts to be careful.]

Whoosh─

Visualize the waves with your own eyes.

Rolled to the side.

It was surprisingly slow, so it was easy to dodge. Others had no problems either.

“What, what is it.”

The woman opened her eyes wide.

“You. How did you get my ability?!”

Hong Seo-min showed a similar reaction. Is it that hard to avoid this?

Well, I know the level. Now it’s time to move. I pulled out my long sword and aimed it at the woman.

Approaching with wide strides, it takes about 5 seconds. It would be nice if I could kill her with a single blow, but the opponent is a Class A woman. She even made a contract with the top.

If you think about Hong Seo-min’s durability, it must be very strong.

Like a rock.

“Why did you take the Major?”

When I asked bluntly, the woman answered with her eyes half-open.

“I didn’t take you. Rather, I came here on my own accord.”

The woman shook the fallen Kang Mi-young’s neck while holding it.

“This bitch! I was dumbfounded at first too. I want to ask you. How did you guys know my location and where I’m hiding and come looking for me? This is a hideout made by the top. It’s a place where the contractors are supposed to gather. ”

The woman snorted in annoyance.

The best of the best.

The only way to win is to know your enemy.

[■■■■’s eyes lightly illuminate the gaze.]

□ Skill

⤷[Weakness Exploitation], [Mental Disruption], [Memory Search], [Exploration], [Body Snatching], [Collapse]…

Bae Eun-young. Former A-class hunter. Although her physical specs are weak, she is a hypnotist and focuses all her energy on mental attacks. You can tell at a glance that she can win without difficulty if she is capable of close combat.

Phew, I fell asleep for no reason. It’s generally a mentally disturbing trait. If it doesn’t work, then just stop, right?

Bae Eun-young clenched her teeth.

“You, I remember. We all died because of you. And that damn Hong Seo-min too.”

“······Hong Seo-min?”

“Do you know Hong Seo-min? The conversation will get faster.”

Bae Eun-young’s eyes became sharp. Until just now, she was a ferocious beast.

Now, it was closer to a perspective that evaluated like a businessman.

“Hong Seo-min. The head of the contractors in the Republic of Korea. And the traitor who dared to stab her in the back of the head······. Who knows? I mean, you have to kill that bitch. You just have to get this back, right?”

“That’s true.”

“Seonghan, how about saving your sister first? If you can just recover her a little, it seems like a fight you can win.”

“Brother. I think the same. I don’t think we can beat that kind of power in our current state. Especially if we’re the contractor. There are many people who can protect you, brother. Like me, like me… … Or. ”

“But if we send it here and there is a problem with Hong Seo-min’s identity, it is solely our responsibility. You know that, right? The attention the people have been giving us recently.”

Everyone said something. Let’s send him away. Let’s fight. Let’s rescue Kang Mi-young first. Now, only my opinion remains.

That’s right. I’ll be satisfied if I can just get Captain Nan back.

But what happens after that is the problem.

We cannot increase responsibility further since the hearing has already been scheduled.

If we do that, the disciplinary action will increase. These days, the members of the National Assembly are waiting for this.

Bae Eun-young added an explanation as if she understood the concerns.

“I’m telling you this because he’s going to die soon. If you take his life, another traitor will appear. It’s similar to succession. In other words, I’m removing a headache for you. That’s why I’m saying let’s rest here for a moment. ”

Succession. It definitely resembles it.

The appearances of Bae Eun-young and Hong Seo-min.

Magical skills that naturally handle shadow magic, red eyes, and manipulation. These are keywords that anyone who sees them will inevitably think of Hong Seo-min.

Personality······Hong Seo-min is much better. By the way, if someone looks similar, one of them gets eliminated?

‘Doppelganger.’

I remember there being a story about a person who looked like the original, but died the moment they met.

If the other party had made a contract with the top, they would have received a corresponding return. Whether it was the succession process or something else. In Hong Seo-min’s case, it was ‘physical strength’.

What if you could gain that strength, hypnosis skills, and puppeteering skills?

It’s going to be really tough to stop.

Even if it’s the best Kang Mi-young in the world.

It’s like putting off dismantling a time bomb day after day until it explodes.

I can’t just leave it like that. I don’t want to leave it either. I raised my sword higher.

“I refuse. I will take the Major back and kill you.”

Not killing them… but maybe disabling them? I’m prepared to cut off a few limbs if necessary.

Bae Eun-young smiled and took out a coin from her bosom. How did she take it out when she didn’t even have a pocket?

The coin had a unique shape, with a hole in the middle and was connected by a thread. It was similar to a cliché hypnosis tool.

“The administrators are trying so hard to kill you······I get why. Hehe. But that won’t work either. The half-and-half looks delicious.”

Chureup. Bae Eun-young’s gaze turned to between my legs. Oh my god, a sex offender!

That must be a tower item too. I opened my eyes slightly.

[Mating Auntie’s Hypnosis Tool (B)]

– A coin from a woman who likes men ‘suspiciously’. If you show this coin to the opposite sex, they will automatically go into a state of hypnosis.

(Homosexuals enter a state of hypnosis at a 50% reduced speed.)

“What.”

The words just come out on their own.

“Hehehe. You know this too. It belongs to a legendary woman who only captures young children. It’s a special item given to me by Top!”

Hahaha, I couldn’t help but laugh, but what can I do?

“Hong Seo-min, if you tell me where that bitch is, I’ll let you live. Or else, come under me.”

Would you believe that? I have quite a bit of experience dealing with guys related to the top.

For example, Hong Seo-min, Hong Seo-min, or Hong Seo-min?

Moreover, Hong Seo-min’s detention facility······If I speak out, something may happen.

In other words, it’s all about acting as if you have a zipper on your mouth.

The woman also noticed his intention and clicked her tongue as if it was not funny.

“Brother.”

“Be careful. You never know when they might come. Cover this up. You too, Jinyoung.”

“What is this?”

“I found it while wandering around the maze called the curtain. It should be okay for the time being. I don’t need to accept Mr. Baek Min-ho, right? ”

“That doesn’t have to be the case.”

I threw auxiliary items from my backpack one after another. It would be better for the non-combat personnel to get out first.

“Let’s fight once. Hehehe.”

When Bae Eun-young flicked her hand, a pitch-black shadow swept across the floor. When it reached Kang Mi-young’s shadow, they merged and were absorbed.

Kang Mi-young groaned and then quietly got up, releasing her restraints. It was a scene that reminded me of the character from the Terminator.

[『Favorability Quest』]

[Incapacitate Kang Mi-young, who is currently under hypnosis.]

“Ah.”

***

Among the game genres, there is Souls-like.

X level of difficulty!

X-like pattern!

X-like movement!

A product of discomfort created by gathering together terrible elements.

And yet people still enjoy it, even though they say it’s a “fuckable game”.

Because it stimulates primal dopamine.

Difficult battles and many deaths.

And the sense of accomplishment from the victory at the end.

That feeling is what moves people.

But what I see now is the final boss.

The final boss who doesn’t even show any signs of life in my attacks, and who gets horny when he sees a newbie who’s just finished the tutorial.

“A stab at one point.”

“A stab at one point.”

“A stab at one point.”

As soon as I read Kang Mi-young’s thoughts, I got goosebumps.

The woman I was seeing was just repeating one pattern, but the movements were so many that it was crazy.

In simple terms, this means that every time you divide the sum, an infinite number of patterns are created. This is probably the case for all people, but reading the thoughts in their heads is a different story.

To win against such a monstrous woman? That’s ridiculous. I can really feel how much Top wants to kill me.

“Gap”

“Ah.”

Bounce!

The swords clashed against each other, sending sparks flying.

Then, with a loud thud, I was thrown out.

The sword blade was fine until just now.

In an instant, the cross-section met and disappeared.

Damn, he didn’t even get tired when he tried to cut the bus to Gangseojin.

“Close.”

Kang Mi-young jumps with long strides to close the distance. She bends her upper body to minimize the area of impact. It was like a cheetah in the savanna.

Close combat.

This is a fighting method that is like Kang Mi-young’s symbol.

‘Fuck.’

He moved sideways and rummaged through his backpack.

I thought about my current equipment configuration. The armor is critical even with one hit. The weapons I can currently use are roughly [Crude Crossbow (D)] and [Ancient Pistol (C)].

The [Star Sword (A)] that was originally used was rolling around on the floor far away and is now being used by Kang Mi-young who snatched it from her.

The crossbow has used up all of its consumable arrows.

The pistol has 9mm ammo left, but there’s no room to take it out.

‘Even that is impossible to use. Because of that damn [Steel Transformation]······.’

My eyes just squint. It’s so reassuring when we’re allies, but when we meet as enemies, it’s hell.

“Switch!”

Baek Min-ho, who was on the line, pierced the floor with one hand and pulled out the ground and threw it.

Because he was originally one of the best people in terms of spirit magic skills.

“!”

Kang Mi-young didn’t know she would get hit by a rock. She was hit by a rock, flew through the air, and got stuck in the wall. I couldn’t help but laugh out loud at the scene that was like an American cartoon.

“Mr. Seonghan. Are you okay?”

“Ugh, you’re like a monster.”

Kang Jin-young and Kang Seo-jin quickly checked my condition.

Fortunately, the two of them were wearing their veils backwards as I advised. It was a kind of invisibility cloak, and as long as you didn’t move, it was a good item that gave you permanent invisibility and increased health regeneration.

Of course, it’s a consumable item. The downside is that you become defenseless as soon as you release it. You just have to take it off and run.

Baek Min-ho checked my condition and nodded as if to say that I was okay.

“I will protect you for now─”

Baek Min-ho stopped talking. Kang Mi-young turned her head and glared at Baek Min-ho as if she was going to kill him.

A blank expression that shows absolutely no emotion. At times like that, perhaps······.

“Kill.”

Only when she has an extreme killing intent. Kang Mi-young steps on Jin-gak and closes the distance. The target is Baek Min-ho.

“Wall!”

A hastily erected earthen wall. However, Kang Mi-young, who was stuck in like a bunker buster, pierced it with her body and continued to advance.

Baek Min-ho shook his head as if he was embarrassed, then jumped into the air while holding Kang Jin-young and Kang Seo-jin in his arms.

“Blink!”

Tsupat!

Tsupat!

I’m holding on by moving as much as I can, but it’s clear that I’ll be caught up soon.

If it comes to this······if I kill the hypnotist.

There is at least a possibility that it can be resolved.

‘But it’s lurking in the shadows.”

If you let the Baemoshi gang come out, that’s it. From then on, things can proceed smoothly.

I stopped breathing as I tried to pick up the sword again. Damn it. My left arm was twisted outwards. It’s being reassembled because of [Regeneration], but it will take a long time to heal.

What should I say about that woman’s physical strength… It’s extreme. It’s as if she wasn’t just called S-class for nothing.

I should have brought more equipment.

[Characteristic Enhancement Ticket]

Suddenly, the item in my backpack came to mind. I quickly tore it open and looked for a usable trait.

“If only that could happen.”

Powder of Nepenthes.

And if this combination is valid.

“Just try it.”

You can turn the board over.
