Demon King
Chapter 45 Monster Heart [2]

The boss on the second floor was a Werewolf. And what I am facing right now is also the Wolf Man.

It may be a coincidence, but it's an interesting coincidence.

But unlike the Werewolf I saw in the boss room, this one was seriously injured.

First of all, there was a huge penetrating wound on his stomach, and he had wounds all over his shoulders, forearms, legs, feet, and head. The flesh, nerves, and bones were almost exposed.

Blood flowed from them all.

The only reason he was still alive was because he had an incredible Werewolf vitality.

“Grrr...!”

“Grrr..”.

The wolf that surrounded him was hostile towards me, but he raised his hand weakly to order them to retreat.

“What do you want from me?” She asked

“It depends on what you want.”

It was quite outspoken and stupid, but he nodded as if he was satisfied with my answer.

“I..... I want to live.”

“Dan?”

“For my friends who were killed and treated like monsters..

What an amazing thing.

As he spoke with words of pain and anger, his shattered body seemed to recover faster.

Are his regeneration skills increasing?

I could see the size of the severe wound on his abdomen shrinking in real-time.

What a resilience!

He also realized it.

He smiled as he raised his hand, with his bones open, and watched it slowly covered with muscles, flesh, and hair.

“Slowly, I grow stronger..”.

“But you can't live alone.”

Yeah, of course not.

He's nodding.

As the blood and phlegm in his throat cleared my throat, I could hear his voice more clearly.

Since he had a wolf head, it was difficult to estimate his exact age, but judging from his voice, he would not be older than twenty years.

He kept talking.

“I was alone when they were over a hundred years old. Moreover, since regeneration depletes my stamina, it will be difficult to fight them back in my condition. ”.

“Stop talking,” I cut it.

I could feel the human presence appearing one by one from a distance of 500 meters.

If we don't leave this place soon, we'll be found out.

“I want to know more about The Fallen,” I told him.

“... I know about them.”

“I want to hear how the world works now.”

“It's easy.”

“If you can meet those two requests, I'll save you.”

He considered for a moment, then he asked me.

“You don't want the experience, money, and goods you can get from me?”

“What do you mean I have to kill a person like me just because I can earn money?”

He laughed at my words.

“There are over a hundred people out there who would love to do it.”

I smiled before I replied.

“I don't think of them as ‘orang’.”

He looked curious as I continued.

“They are just monsters. Monsters with thoughts more terrifying than our appearance. ”

He was silent, full of emotion. Soon, he looked at me with his blue eyes.

“That's a very good way of thinking. I like that.”

“Good?”

“However, I cannot easily trust someone I just met.”

“Of course.”

This is the mindset that everyone must have in order to survive.

It was doubtful that someone would protect him from over a hundred people in exchange for two simple conditions.

“However ...” he shook his head and laughed. I laughed with him.

“You are the only hope left,” he said.

“So?”

“All in. I'll support you.”

“Good choice.”

I approached him with silent footsteps.

The wolf snarled again, but he stopped them.

“You can control the wolf?” I asked him.

“I can, up to five, but it will not last forever, and it requires mana.”

So, send them back.

“Good.”

He did something I don't understand.

The wolf suddenly seemed empty; then, each one went his own way as if they did not recognize our presence.

“Completed.”

“Good.”

As I carried Blood Shadow to the floor, he saw that it sucked all of his blood that had been gushing to the ground. He laughed when he saw it.

“That's a good sword.”

I raised.

He immediately realized what he had to do now and clung to it as best he could.

After nodding at him, I moved forward.

Towards the dark passageway towards the third floor.

With my Advanced Detection, I believe there are no humans or monsters standing in our way.

I didn't know that it could do it before, but Surprise and Fairy Tales seemed to have an effect on the thing or person I was carrying.

I passed through the dark hallway quickly.

When we reached the hallway, his eyes widened.

“You have access to the entrance to the third floor... Are you the First Conqueror on the second floor?”

“Good.”

We entered into 3F and were instantly engulfed in darkness.

This was my first time coming with someone else.

It was strange to feel a presence other than myself wandering in the void.

“Oh what? You..... Are you there now? ”

He may not be able to see my presence. I let go of Surprise and Fairy Tales which I kept on activating as a habit.

“Can you detect my presence now?” I asked him.

“... Excellent. My Detection Ability is intermediate, but. ”.

“We entered the third floor, so we have to be careful. I'll catch an intermediate monster for you, so you can eat it to restore your health. ”

The road was long, but as I got used to it, I immediately passed it and reached the third floor in just a few minutes.

When I lowered him on the ground, he stood on two legs, looked around with a look of astonishment on his face, and took a deep breath.

“I'm really alive ..”.

Scant.

I replied bluntly, then threw the Blood Shadow somewhere.

Blood Bat, a medium-level monster, lost his life in one hit. It slumped onto the floor with Blood Shadow stuck to its head.

[You gained 25,680 experiences.]

[You earned 45 silver.]

I recovered the Blood Shadow and threw the Blood Bat's body at the Werewolf.

“This monster stealth ability is quite good. If one was not vigilant as they were only at the 3F entrance, this bat would suck all of its blood. ”

“Ya yes.”

This, of course, was meant to tell him how dangerous 3F was; at the same time, however, I also intended to dispel the thoughts of the traitor but show my strength to him.

Quietly to avoid monsters and humans; the power to kill intermediate monsters easily.

Whether he really understood what I meant or not, he simply nodded cautiously as he took out Blood Bat.

Then, he asked me.

“Are you really an intermediate monster? Or are you already proficient? ”

“Intermediate. Not.”

But it's not gonna happen soon. It's gotta.

When I turned around to return to the hallway, he immediately called out to me.

“I haven't heard your name. I'm Chan-yoo. Lee Chan-yoo's. ”

“I... no.”

I was about to respond with my name but held back.

I considered whether to introduce myself as a monster, or as ‘Kang Si-ha’.

The conclusion came quickly.

“Call me ‘Fate’.”

“Destiny? Is that your alias? ”

“No. That's my name.”

“Ya, okay. … Nice to meet you, Fate. ”

I tried not to show as much emotion as possible, but she seemed to have guessed my feelings.

The answer is heavy and sincere.

My heart felt heavy at the time because, in one simple introduction, I felt I had to choose between the past and the present.

He also thought about his past when he introduced himself.

There's nothing different.

That's not wrong. That's normal.

In the end, we had a small but weak connection.

How did this happen? I shouldn't have believed it.

It feels good to be with someone who feels the same way as you, but I shouldn't be affected by it.

“Happy is mine, Lee Chan-yoo. When I come back, you can answer the two questions I asked earlier. ”

“I'll tell you as much as I know. As I said before, I agree. ”

I'm nodding.

“Dan, just in case..”

Before I step into the hallway, I have to check one more thing.

I looked back and asked him.

“For your thirst for revenge to be satisfied, should it be done with your own hands?”

“... If it is impossible for me, I leave it to my friend,” he replied.

“I'm not your friend yet.”

“But I think we'll be soon.”

Perhaps, since he had been with the other Fallen, he felt comfortable with me.

Should I feel the same?

He had been saved from death, so he trusted me completely.

He saw me as a friend.

He really meant what he said when he said that he was ‘all in’.

But I don't believe in feelings.

It's easy to betray. Sick and easily changeable. It was explosive and instantaneous.

But in the end, it can not be denied that the motor drive is the most to make people move.

Unconsidered achievements may have been achieved due to the power of emotion.

Can we really be friends?

Can I trust him and hand my back to him?

Will the time come when we will fight together?

No matter what, I can't just trust someone I just met.

But I wish I could, someday.

I threw myself into the hallway without answering him, silencing the small and secret hope in my head.

I went all the way to the middle of the hallway and started practicing Surprise and Fairy Tales.

While doing so, I tracked the movements of the humans on the second floor.

Not long after that the guild returned.

“We have to find him. I will see with my own eyes that his neck is cut off. ”

“Difficult. First of all, he can hide his identity as Fall .. ”

“Sial, did he become the First Conqueror on the second floor? Where did he get the key to break through the second floor? ”

Lee Chan-yoo gets the key from the first floor boss room, quickly breaks through to the Goblin King, and hides on the second floor.

However, he did not have the strength to cope with the mass appearance on the second floor, and he nearly died.

That's when I found him.

So, there was still the Werewolf King in the second floor boss room.

If the guild overcame the mass emergence repeatedly, they would be aware of the situation.

Finally, the time has come. It only takes a few hours.

“Cannot be! He's on the third floor? ”

“First, let's get the key to the boss room. Let's explore it thoroughly. No one can get out of this dungeon until we catch him! ”

They'll need a few more days.

I watched them as I trained and helped Lee Chan-yoo recover.

Soon, Lee Chan-yoo can hunt on the third floor alone.

He was quite strong when he recovered completely.

He has good fighting skills. His skills also grew diligently.

He was strong enough to be able to compete with the boss on the second floor in a one-on-one match.

“Too strong, shit. A novice monster on the first floor, Lower on the second floor, and Intermediate on the third floor? This is no joke. Even the best hunters may not be able to keep up with the sudden increase in difficulty. ”

“It's good. You can get stronger faster. ”

“Are you a mercenary country of war when you were human?”

I didn't answer and went back down the hall.

The only conversation I needed to have with him was a conversation in which he answered my two questions.

He breathed, but I don't care.

That afternoon I heard a voice that seemed to be the head of their guild.

“I think he found the stairs. It's a ridiculous possibility, but it's the only way he can possibly do it. ”

“So what should we do?”

Defeat the boss and follow him to the third floor.

When I heard it, I moved.

To the second floor, not to the third floor.

Soon, they'll find him and kill him.

I can't wait anymore.
