Chapter 25 – The Chosen (1)
Bae Hu-ryeong spoke in panic as the light descended.
-hei wait. If only 10 ten were summoned, wouldn't Marcus' grandfather be there? What are you going to do when he sees you and tries to catch you? ‘
‘Well, you're too worried. Its alright. The worst thing I can do is die, right? ‘
-Kim Zombie you …
Bae Hu-ryeong's lips twitched like she was about to nag about me. Sheesh's. I quickly added.
‘It's okay because I have a plan. Don't you know? I'm Kim Gong-ja. The weak donkey that the Sword Emperor recognized! Trust me.’
you have a plan?
‘Of course! I have a definite plan. I'll show you soon. ‘
ahem.
He crossed his arms with a doubtful expression.
But it's too late. The summoning had begun, and the white night covered us completely.
The only thing we can do is meet the Sword Saint.
I closed my eyes and,
[Transmission complete.]
When I opened my eyes, I was on the 12th floor.
It was completely different from the 11th floor. Like reverse. If the 11th floor was a dirty and intense battlefield, the 12th floor was a luxurious palace. It was the Imperial Palace of the Aegim Empire.
‘...no.’
I look around.
“Because politics in the palace is very dirty and intense.”
In the reception room, another high challenger was called. There were people I saw for the first time, but most of them were hunters I had already met, such as Witches and Princes. Sure oes. They were not the leaders of large Guilds for no reason.
I met the eyes of the other hunters.
Oh?
“Mm.”
All their reactions are different. There were some hunters who smiled brightly at me as if they knew I would be here, and there were some with grins as if they would never expect me here.
“Bun Gong-ja hunter! You are amazing! ”
The Perverted Questioner is the first.
“I saw what you did on the 11th floor! To use such an NPC. I'm touched! ”
He ran towards me. Because he was so short, he looked like a little puppy.
“Is the sword on my waist a special item? The NPCs seemed to be following you right away after seeing you have this sword. Did you get this as a reward for finishing the 10th floor?
“Good. I guess..”
“As expected!”
He was all smiling at me.
“You used the 10th floor gift to finish the 11th floor. Your application skills are amazing! ”
“No, fine. No...”
“From now on, many hunters will envy you. They may even treat you as a lucky parvenu. Ignore them! It's all thanks to your skills! ”
Uh.
What kind of person is this?
The angel?
Bae Hu-ryeong shouted.
It was different from the usual teasing tone. She's panicking.
- Careful! Behind you…!
Later then. Before Bae Hu-ryeong could finish, it was all over.
“Hm.”
The first person to react was the Perverted Questioner in front of me.
Her jolly eyes were gone, and were replaced with narrowed ones. He pulled my wrist back. I fell over, unable to set the balance. One step. The Perverted Questioner pulled me back and instead stepped forward.
“-Sacred Technique, Inner God ( ⁇ ⁇ ).”
He silently muttered to himself. Then the sound of iron crashing into something else was heard. It's simple iron.
It was an attack with clear killing intent.
“Ha.”
The Perverted Asker laughed.
His eyes did not laugh.
“That's a surprise, Sword Saint. When did you become a murderer? ”
“Moving.”
An old man wearing a suit. Sword Saint spoke coldly.
His sword was raised towards us.
No. gabe.
Never mind.
I'm gonna kill that guy.
It wasn't brought up on us, but on me.
Silence descends in the living room.
Like there was electricity in the air, my body felt radiant.
“Mm.”
Only the Perverted Inquirer spoke with an attitude that was not much different from before.
“Excuse me. But with ‘man it’ are you talking about hunter Kim Gong-ja? ”
“Of course.”
The Sword Saint replied.
“If you do not move from there, one of your arms will be cut as well.”
The Perverted Questioner had a beaming smile.
“It was a bit difficult! I can't move for you. Hunter Kim Gong-ja has received recognition from the Five Great Guilds, including the Ten Thousand Temple. If I let him die, the reputation of the Five Great Guilds would be hurt! ”
“You want to lose an arm, so. Youth.”
“Ah, that's a bit difficult too! My arms are still useful to me. ‘
The Perverted Questioner tilted his head, still smiling.
“Can you tell me why you are targeting hunter Kim Gong-ja?”
“I don't need to tell you.”
“Did you say you won't hand him over?”
“Move and stop that nonsense.”
Sword Saint resolutely refused.
Yep. In his eyes, I was a slaughterer who killed over 4000 people. Since he doesn't know my skills, he will react that way.
I'll say it again, but I'll kill that guy.
“Mm! Then you have left me without a choice. ”
The Perverted Inquirer gathered his hands.
“I'll control you here. Sacred Technique, Transmission God. ”
Suddenly, a light exploded behind the Sword Saint. Two hunters emerged from the crack. Chen-mu Master Venomous Snake. Deputy Leader of Milita Civil Crusader Guild. The two hunters shouted. Both of their weapons were directed towards the Sacred Sword.
“Haaaaaaa!”
Sword Saint furrowed his brows.
“This prick ..”
He clicked his tongue. During the span of one click, he swung his sword once. His blue aura split the air and spilled blood. Two slashes. With just two strikes, the cheeks of the Crusaders were wounded. The arm of the poisonous snake was bleeding.
“This, horrible old geezer!”
It happened in an instant.
“What did the old man eat to be that energetic! Please, age! Back off! Because of you, young people can't ride. ”
Sword Saint snorted lightly.
“Are you not over 40 now? Looking at the truly young, you are also old. ”
“Funny! 40 Is young! That's when your real life getsi.. ”.
“Master Chen-mu! You old! You're almost blind! ”
“Those damned fanatics are on my side, right?”
“Mendesah.”
The Crusaders breathed.
“Focus on existing opponents. We're disadvantaged. ”
Even when he sighed, the Crusaders did not lower their vigilance. No, he looked more nervous. Perverted Inquirers, Venomous Snakes, and Crusaders.3 Supreme Hunters are fighting together, but the Holy Sword is still unsuccessful.
“Mm. We were really harmed like this. ”
Did the Perverted Inquirer also feel it?
He smiled brightly and asked for help.
“Counting!”
“What.”
“Please give me money!”
“How much?”
“Luckily the Holy Sword has not lost its mind. That will be enough to control it for some time. 10,000 gold, please! ”
“Flower 15%.”
The Count opened his fan while silently watching the fight.
“Time 3 months. Is this good? ”
“Ha ha! You have misunderstood me! I am not asking to borrow money. I said to give me money. ”
“Hahs. Are you asking the merchant to donate? ”
“Iya! That's her! Isn't that the money you get from filthy deeds? I will use it in a good place, so repent in the temple and go to heaven! ”
“You're a thief worse than me..”.
The count shook his head and let out something.
It was a pouch with a snail pattern on it.
Count untie the gold rope at the entrance.
“Withdrawal, 10,000 Gold.”
The bag opened his mouth. A bunch of coins fell. The bag itself may be a rare item. As the gold coins formed a small mountain, the Count took back his pouch.
“Sana. Take, priest. Exactly 10,000 Gold. ”
I will take it well!
The Persevering Questioner smiled cheerfully and collected both of his hands.
Sacred Technique, Devotion!
The gold on the floor emitted light. A golden light filled the reception room. In the middle of it, the Heretic Questionnaire muttered as it moved its hand swiftly.
Sacred transfer, physical reinforcement. Receivers, Crusaders and Venomous Snakes. Time, 300 times. Gold will take our hand. Technique finished! ”
“Mm.”
“Huh..”.
Dan sesuatu yang aneh terjadi. Semua emas di lantai menghilang seperti belum pernah ada di sana.
Instead, the light from the coins landed on the Crusaders and the Venomous Serpent. It was like Aura. Perverted questioner spread her hands, saying, “This is it.”
“For 300 seconds, your Crusader and Master Chen will be very different. Holy swords! Even if you are strong, you cannot stand the attacks of the four of us! Me, the Prince, the Crusader, and your Master Chen! ”
“…”
“And the Count treasury is not empty. Ha ha's. I don't know if that will ever happen! If you want to test whether the Count will go bankrupt first, or if your neck will be cut first, go ahead! ”
Counts of pouting from afar.
“Why did you pull my treasure into this test! I only donated because the fanatic told me to. Gee. Being a merchant was difficult both inside and outside of the tower. ”
“... And if I add something to it.”
A cold voice spoke. It was the Witch. The Tier 2 hunter broke his silence.
He looked at the Sword Saint with an expressionless face.
“It won't end with four. I will show my intention to participate in the fight now. Because hunter Kim Gong-ja has made a deal with the Five Great Guilds.
Sword Saint frowned.
The accord?
“Yes. A deal. ”
The witch nodded.
“Hunter Kim Gong-ja is not tied to one place but applied to all the Five Great Guilds. In return, we promised to treat her as an equal. The sword saint. If you pull your sword towards Kim Gong-Ja, it means you are attacking all of us. ”
“….”
“Of course, with ‘we’, I'm talking about Five Large Guilds.”
He pulled out a mirror.
“Black dragon. Sangryun's. Ten Thousand Candi. Chen-mu Mun's. Civil Militia. ”
The mirrors floated by themselves. And they started to spin. One. Two. Three. In total, six mirrors revolved around the Witch as if they were hunting the dog that protected her.
“Can you really deal with all of us, Sword Saint?”
Whirr.
The five hunters all took out their weapons towards the Sacred Sword.
“…”
The old sword user was silent.
Ja.
‘Even if the Holy Sword is very strong.’
At this time -
‘He is not strong enough to make all the Five Great Clans his enemies.’
This is why I made a deal with Guild Master.
One day when I was stronger than Sword Saint coule came. Nnnnope. But it's not today or tomorrow. So until that day comes, I have to have a safety net.
In my heart I smiled.
‘Do you remember what I said on the 11th floor?’
-what?
‘That there are two ways to face a strong opponent.’
Be a one-man army strong enough to chew on your enemies.
Or, make my own team and fight.
‘The Sword Saint is nothing more than a solo player.’
But I'm different.
‘I already have an ally.’
Jadi jika Sword Saint dan saya bertarung, itu akan menjadi kemenangan saya.
‘See? Here's my plan. Please, enchanted. ‘
-tsk ck's. Weak ground …
Bae Hu-ryeong sighed.
But his face didn't look too bad. He looked quite satisfied as I climbed to the 12th floor with a strategy. The ghost, even though he did not show it, worried about many things.
I took a step forward.
“Med Saint-nim.”
All the hunters are looking at me. And Sword Saint was among them. I smile to look relaxed.
And I looked into the eyes of the Sacred Sword.
“Can we talk?”
Listen carefully. Because Mr. Gong-ja is talking.
