The looks of willpower were really seen at the faces of the raid group members. They saved their mouths resolutely close as though to mean that they knew their fate already. in the meantime, the girl Healer approached Jin-Woo and started rummaging thru the luggage.
Jin-Woo turned his head closer to her and requested.
“What are you doing?”
“preserve on.”
What she took out become a small women purse.
“I kinda feel a bit uncomfortable if I’m too some distance away from my bag, you spot.”
He didn’t even ask her, but she supplied him with an evidence oh-so-kindly. She took out a memo pad and a pen from the bag and then started jotting something down on said memo pad.
because she wasn’t searching in front of her, she stored bumping into Jin-Woo’s shoulder together with her head.
sooner or later, although – she closed the memo pad.
Her bag, which she slung round her shoulder while writing on the memo, became driven again in the bags again, but that memo remained in her arms.
Jin-Woo discovered her with a piece of interest, thinking what she’d do with that, but she sincerely pushed the memo closer to him, alternatively.
“…..?”
After taking it, Jin-Woo tilted his head, prompting the girl Healer to tearfully spoke up.
“I wrote down what I wanted to mention to my own family. when you get outdoor, please make certain that they get it. Please.”
If he burst out in laughter, she’d in all likelihood get harm, no? Jin-Woo suppressed his growing laughter and pocketed the memo.
“I’ll maintain onto this in the interim, however I’m pretty certain I won’t get to supply this.”
“It’s going to be first-rate.”
The lady Healer nodded her head.
‘With excessive Orc warriors zealously maintaining tabs on us like this, it gained’t be easy for him to get out of right here unscathed.’
after all, Mister Porter turned into handiest a rank E. She hadn’t figured out but what Jin-Woo supposed, although.
soon, their eyes stuck the sight of the boss room. The anxiety felt with the aid of the Hunters got here over the air and could be felt on his pores and skin.
They had been greeted via a big open space.
‘…….’
Jin-Woo scanned the boss room. It become smaller than yesterday’s boss room with the giant in it.
but, pretty in contrast to the day gone by, he didn’t get the influence that the boss room become big at all. And that could be all way to infinite excessive Orcs completely filling up the chamber.
As a depend of reality, there were over two times as many Orcs here as those that ‘escorted’ the raid crew.
‘at least one hundred… no, perhaps it’s a bit extra than that?’
at the same time as there were no monsters within the relaxation of the dungeon, they have been amassed within the boss room, as a substitute.
Seeing the loads of high Orcs ready inside, Sohn Ki-Hoon’s complexion paled in an instant.
‘If this many high Orcs manipulate to break out from the Gate, then….’
This become a massive sufficient horde to thoroughly break a small metropolis, even earlier than the pinnacle Hunters had the danger to do something about them.
cold sweat trickled down his backside.
‘at the least, we gotta cast off the boss.’
similar to how he resolutely swallowed the dry saliva, he did his great to preserve his dedication burning in his heart.
The high Orcs of the boss room parted to make manner.
“Ah sharkh.”
The leader excessive Orc beckoned once more. The raid crew and the escorting excessive Orcs walked over to an altar placed within the corner of the boss room.
“Over there!”
one of the Hunters pointed in the direction of the top of the altar.
And that’s in which the high Orc Shaman stood, dressed in all way of accessories redecorating its complete body, consisting of a masks, bone necklace, and earrings.
‘So, that’s the boss….’
Sohn Ki-Hoon’s expression hardened.
He straight away realised that the terrifying magic electricity filling up the indoors of this dungeon turned into being emitted from that creature. after which, surrounding that b*stard turned into….
From the four ‘guards’ owning an air of alertness status across the boss, he additionally sensed a as an alternative ominous air of mystery as well.
‘This isn’t accurate.’
ought to the raid group get beyond those guards and kill the Shaman in one fell swoop? The Hunters have been all questioning more or less the identical issue.
The Hunters stopped in the front of the Shaman.
A positive intangible anxiety flowed in between the excessive Orcs surrounding the human Hunters as they saved a certain distance away.
“Kekeke.”
but, the Shaman didn’t seem to care approximately the mood of the place; it without a doubt opened its as a substitute malformed jaw, visible beneath the mask, and cackled out.
“Oh people, welcome.”
The Hunters of the raid team exchanged glances.
‘As soon as Sohn hyung gives us the signal….’
‘We assault together.’
‘purpose for the Shaman, irrespective of what.’
It turned into for the purpose of coordinating their assaults.
but….
all at once, the air around them commenced freezing up.
Hunters of this raid crew have been a number of the very excellent out there. all of them shifted their gazes on the equal time at this surprising outpouring of chilling air of secrecy. The source become the Shaman.
The creature subsequently took the mask off. while it did, the magic electricity it were hiding till then exploded forth, unchecked and unhindered.
Rumble-!!
The freakish magic power unfold out in circular waves with the boss because the centre.
as if they have been regular, powerless civilians that ran into a lion or a tiger, the Hunters iced over up immediately like a gaggle of statues.
“O-oh my god….”
“How can a magic energy of such value be….?”
“We, we gotta combat against some thing like this?!”
melancholy, lamentation, resentment, even remorse. The Shaman shaped an ominous grin whilst dealing with those various sorts of hopelessness.
“Are you terrified of me, people?”
Sohn Ki-Hoon bit down on his decrease lip, hard, and took a difficult leap forward earlier than asking a question.
“Why did you summon us here? Your warriors might’ve been enough to kill us returned there.”
The Shaman grinned once more. sincerely searching at the grin chilled the backs of the Hunters.
“It’s for amusement.”
“What?”
Sohn Ki-Hoon changed into left completely speechless.
have been they added here just for that reason?
The Shaman persevered on.
“whilst we wait out the final time, i can kill you one by one and entertain the infantrymen!”
Waaaaaah-!!
high Orc warriors all roared out in frenzy and exhilaration.
Hunters had been ruthlessly pressured down by using the good sized pressure emitted from the Orcs and couldn’t even breathe nicely. one in every of them even started crying, no much less.
“but….”
The Shaman in short stopped talking, then.
The boss’s gaze shifted and stopped at the rear of the human’s organization – where Jin-Woo turned into.
“…..I see that a unusual being is blended among you, people.”
It changed into then, Sohn Ki-Hoon’s eyes gleamed dangerously.
‘With the Shaman looking someplace else, this is my chance!’
Veins bulged in his neck.
“Now!!”
Sohn Ki-Hoon roared out at the top of his lungs, unsheathed his sword, and rushed out. but, it became eerily quiet behind him.
‘How come….?’
He glanced at the back of him at the same time as walking, and located his comrades rooted to their spots, no longer daring to transport an inch. they had lost their preventing spirit a long time in the past from the display of the boss’s overwhelming might.
Sohn Ki-Hoon’s coronary heart fell to the pit of his stomach.
‘Ah….’
nevertheless, someone needed to do that. He couldn’t prevent now.
His gaze shifted again to the front.
possibly his attack wasn’t predicted, the Shaman changed into nonetheless smiling, and its guards weren’t displaying any pressing reactions, both.
this can be his one and simplest threat.
Didn’t count if it turned into pure success. He’d be given fluke, too. so long as his sword could attain….
Sohn Ki-Hoon fiercely rushed ahead and cocked his sword in the back of him.
“Euhwaaaaaah-!!”
but, even earlier than he may want to swing the sword with all his may, he collided with something invisible and became flung away.
increase!!
before everything, it became shield magic.
“Keok!”
Flung far from the rebound, Sohn Ki-Hoon landed on the ground and rolled backwards. but, that lasted only for a short while.
“looks as if we’ve got our first volunteer.”
along side the Shaman’s mocking phrases, Sohn Ki-Hoon’s frame turned into lifted up into the air.
Wuuuoooo…
And now, it became the anti-gravity magic.
“….”
The lips of the Shaman were shifting up and down non-forestall. when Sohn Ki-Hoon was lifted up as high as a two-tale constructing, the Shaman commenced chanting a distinct spell.
“…..”
subsequent to return turned into gravity acceleration.
Kaboom!!!!
Sohn Ki-Hoon became slammed into the ground.
“Keo-heok!”
He didn’t actually have the time to writhe in pain as he turned into lifted up within the air again.
“Anti-gravity.”
Kekeke….
not best the Shaman, however the rest of the high Orcs were cackling in derision as nicely, their fangs completely bared now.
Kaboom!!
“Keo-heok!!”
Wuuooong….
increase!!
“Keok!”
The Shaman persevered to toy with Sohn Ki-Hoon by way of lifting him up and slamming him down.
when he landed at the ground for the fourth time, Sohn Ki-Hoon vomited out a mouthful of blood. because scene, the complexions of the Hunters were given paler and paler. but, none of them dared to breakthrough to stop this.
“Ki-Ki-Hoon hyung….”
They truly stood there trembling at the same time as witnessing Sohn Ki-Hoon being broken into pieces.
Plop.
The girl Healer collapsed on the ground as though she no longer had any electricity left in her legs.
ultimately….
The Shaman raised Sohn Ki-Hoon in the air for the fifth time.
“You sure are a tenacious b*stard, aren’t you?”
“Euh, euh…..”
A pained moan leaked out of Sohn Ki-Hoon’s mouth. but, he still didn’t allow pass of the sword as if he hadn’t given up yet.
Wuuoong!
Slam!
Wuuuonnng!
Slam!!
Wuuuonng!
As he turned into thrown up and down between the air and ground several instances extra, Sohn Ki-Hoon eventually lost his grip at the sword.
Clang….
It came about then.
just as Sohn Ki-Hoon become thrown right down to the floor another time, he vanished from the view.
“Ng??”
The Shaman’s eyes opened wider.
in which did the human disappear to, while all of his bones must be broken through now? The Shaman looked for the whereabouts of Sohn Ki-Hoon.
‘There….?’
In a corner now not too far, it located Sohn Ki-Hoon, unmoving on the ground. And at the identical time, determined a sure guy crouching nearby.
Of direction, it became Jin-Woo.
Jin-Woo carefully laid Sohn Ki-Hoon down and glared at the Shaman.
“howdy, mister chief. I need to invite you some thing.”
“…..?”
till now, Sohn Ki-Hoon hadn’t figured out what befell to him.
“Will it’s okay if I kill all of the monsters in right here?”
“You… What are you….?”
The Shaman frowned and gestured with its chin, and one of the guards swung approximately its scimitar and ran to in which Jin-Woo became.
As Jin-Woo glared on the monster dashing towards him, a light of fury lit up in his eyes. He reached out with his arms.
‘Ruler’s reach.’
while he did, it changed into as though a giant, invisible hand grabbed the Orc protect, and the monster was cleanly picked up from the floor.
“Ku, kurua?!”
The monster kicked and struggled in the air.
‘What….?!’
The eyes of the Shaman opened wider.
Jin-Woo pointed down toward the floor.
Slam!!
The guard crashed right down to the floor. The effect force became so amazing that deep cracks spread out on the ground. but, Jin-Woo didn’t stop there; just like how the Shaman manipulated Sohn Ki-Hoon’s body, he lifted the guard up inside the air once more.
Slam!!
growth!!
Kaboom!!
Like a basketball bouncing among the floor and one’s hand, the Orc protect continuously slammed into the ceiling and the ground non-stop, a helpless cry popping out from its mouth. in the end, its head pierced into the ceiling.
Kaboom!!
Scatter….
With that, particles from the ceiling fell down.
while staring at the dangling Orc guard with its head buried deep into the ceiling, each agencies of the high Orcs and the Hunters couldn’t cover their astonishment.
Sohn Ki-Hoon trembled and puzzled Jin-Woo.
“You… simply what’s your….?”
“I’ll ask you again.”
This right here became a hunting floor the Hunters Guild paid for. And there has been simplest one person gift that would communicate for the Guild for the time being.
Jin-Woo asked for the final time.
“Monsters on this region…. Can i’ve all of them?”
What changed into this?
Sohn Ki-Hoon realised now that the identification of the porter or something didn’t be counted anymore. No, he changed into simply p*ssed off. He became irritated at himself for being toyed around with by using the monsters like that. Tears rolled down Sohn Ki-Hoon’s face.
“Please…. i beg of you, do something….”
With that, it changed into performed.
when Jin-Woo stood returned up, excessive Orcs approached him. The Shaman turned into in the back of them. The boss began smirking in derision.
“For a measly human, you realize some interesting competencies, don’t you?”
The boss gestured, and the high Orcs quick surrounded Jin-Woo.
“however, simply how a ways do you observed your tricks gets you?”
Jin-Woo’s glare have become a lot less warm. He never surely cared for any of the monsters he killed to this point, however this will be his first time looking to slice one up this badly.
“I’ll contend with you ultimate.”
If the boss knew the meaning of entertainment, in reality it’d realize what fear tasted like.
Jin-Woo slowly murmured out.
“My shadows….”
daggers regarded in Jin-Woo’s fingers.
“….come out and play.”
