All Master of 100 Floors Episode 125
23rd Floor, World of Faith (4)
Messi’s eyes wavered.
“…You mean, you intend to kill the King…”
“Well, that’s right.”
Messi swallowed his breath.
He was a citizen of Ruktoshan.
What Kang Jun-hyeok just said was tantamount to telling him to commit treason. Kang Jun-hyeok spoke leisurely.
“You don’t have any loyalty or faith anyway, do you?”
Rather, Messi had doubts about the current situation where wars were being waged to become gods that weren’t even real.
“As you must have seen, the Kings wage war to become gods themselves. There’s no heart for the people or for the kingdom in that.”
Only their own desires existed. For the sake of those desires, the once peaceful world was becoming chaotic, and countless people were dying meaninglessly.
Kang Jun-hyeok smiled quietly.
“The King abandoned you. Messi.”
That voice burrowed into Messi’s ears like a desert wind.
“What would be the greatest revenge you could take after realizing the truth?”
Messi’s wavering eyes slowly settled.
“It doesn’t matter if you don’t tell me. I can find my own way. But if you tell me, that time would be considerably shortened.”
Kang Jun-hyeok lightly patted Messi’s shoulder. Like starting a car engine.
“So what will you do?”
Messi slowly opened his mouth.
* * *
Late at night.
Kang Jun-hyeok arrived in front of the capital of Ruktoshan. He could see the towering castle walls and the royal castle that existed beyond them.
‘It’s been a while.’
Kang Jun-hyeok made a nostalgic expression. The King he had killed in his previous life.
That was none other than Ruktoshan.
“Thank you for guiding me here.”
Messi bit his lips and stepped back. Kang Jun-hyeok slowly approached the capital. Messi was startled by his confident appearance.
“If, if you approach like that, the guards will…”
“No problem.”
Kang Jun-hyeok looked at the castle walls.
This place was the royal castle.
Naturally, it was thoroughly protected. Not only did guards keep Night Watch without rest and take shifts, but all kinds of magical curtains existed.
‘In my previous life, I got into big trouble for carelessly messing with it.’
He had considerable trouble entering the interior of the royal castle. He went to find the Thieves’ Guild in the back alleys, found gaps in the shifts, figured out how to disable the magical curtains, and analyzed the routes. That alone took well over a week.
He had barely managed to infiltrate the royal castle like that, but various variables occurred and he was eventually discovered. He had to go through countless life-threatening crises.
But now there was no need for that.
[Vision Expansion.]
Kang Jun-hyeok looks up at the top of the royal castle. He confirms the gap that protrudes sharply at its end.
[Crack Movement.]
Swoosh.
Kang Jun-hyeok’s body moves through the gap.
“Huh?”
Messi’s eyes widened behind him. Kang Jun-hyeok had literally disappeared.
Kang Jun-hyeok, who moved to the top of the royal castle, immediately steps forward.
[Wall Climbing.]
Tap tap.
He moved along the structure, carefully opened a window, and landed.
It didn’t even take 10 seconds to infiltrate the royal castle.
And Kang Jun-hyeok looked at the corridor.
This corridor was not an ordinary corridor. All kinds of traps and magical alarms existed. If he didn’t move carefully, he would inevitably be caught.
And he solves that problem as well.
Observation.
That skill, which had reached Proficiency B, gives him the answer. The location of traps. The activation conditions and countermeasures for magical alarms. All of it enters his mind. The castle infiltration that had tormented him in his previous life is easily resolved.
‘All that suffering was worth it.’
Kang Jun-hyeok walks through the corridor with a pleasant smile. He silently took down the guards that appeared here and there. At the end, he arrived in front of the King’s bedroom.
The door was firmly locked. Not only physical locks but also magical locks were in place, making it difficult to break through easily.
Therefore, Kang Jun-hyeok took out a key.
[Near-Universal Key.]
Clunk clunk clunk!
All the locks are released. The door opens and Kang Jun-hyeok enters the bedroom.
The King was sleeping on a huge bed.
Kang Jun-hyeok tapped the wall as if knocking. The King, hearing the sound, slowly woke up.
“…!”
The King who opened his eyes realized something was wrong. He hastily got up from his position and leaned his back against the wall. His eyes looking at Kang Jun-hyeok contained shock.
“You bastard! Who are you! How did you get in here!”
“Using various methods.”
Kang Jun-hyeok said leisurely. The King asked with a trembling voice.
“…Who are you.”
“An assassin.”
The King swallows his breath.
“Did a king from another kingdom send you! Those bastards! How dare they break the promise not to directly interfere with each other!”
“So there was such a promise. No. I wasn’t sent by another king.”
Kang Jun-hyeok shook his head. Confusion settled in the King’s eyes. Kang Jun-hyeok answered.
“What sent me was a being from the Demon Realm. The Sphere of Divine Power.”
The King’s eyes widened.
“I made a deal with the being from that place. If I kill all five of you Kings, it will grant me that power.”
“Wh-what!”
“I am an Assassin with legitimate qualifications.”
A dagger appeared in Kang Jun-hyeok’s hand.
“Since you’re all waging war for the same thing, you can’t complain, can you?”
“Gu-Guards…”
The King hastily tried to call for the Guards, but the dagger had already pierced through his throat. The King collapsed with a look of disbelief.
After confirming the King’s death, Kang Jun-hyeok wandered around the Royal Castle and found a map marking the locations of each kingdom.
When he returned, Messi was waiting.
“Y-you’ve returned.”
“It’s finished. You don’t need to guide me on the remaining paths. I can find my way using the map.”
“…You really intend to kill them all.”
Messi asked with a dejected expression.
“What will happen to this World?”
“I don’t know either.”
Kang Jun-hyeok answered lightly.
“It was a broken World to begin with, so it’ll be one of two things. Either it returns to normal, or it breaks down even more. Take care, Messi.”
Kang Jun-hyeok bid farewell and took his leave. Messi, left alone, slumped down.
* * *
He immediately headed to the next kingdom.
The kingdom with the blue angel emblem. Harete.
The King of Harete died without any preparation, just like Ruktoshan.
Next was the Yellow Flag Kingdom. From here, things were slightly different. Whether news of the Kings’ deaths had spread, security was significantly strengthened. The number of Guards doubled and magical barriers were layered upon each other.
Of course, it meant nothing to Kang Jun-hyeok. With Crack Movement and the Near-Universal Key, and the power of Observation, he bypassed all barriers and entered the King’s Bedroom.
“Impossible! How did you get here without a sound…!”
Those were the last words of the Yellow Flag Kingdom’s King.
Next was the White Dove Kingdom.
Like the Yellow Flag Kingdom, security was reinforced. He broke through without issue and entered the King’s Bedroom, but there was a difference here.
The moment he opened the bedroom door, intense Sword Strikes and Magic came rushing at him. Kang Jun-hyeok quickly drew his Shield. The surging force was absorbed by the Shield and disappeared.
“What!”
“He uses strange artifacts!”
Beyond the Shield, he could see a middle-aged Knight and a Mage wearing a Robe. The King lying in the bedroom shouted frantically.
“Knight Commander! And Court Mage! Kill that Intruder!”
“Yes!”
“By the King’s will!”
The Knight and Mage attack Kang Jun-hyeok. Kang Jun-hyeok makes an understanding expression.
“This time they were smart enough to station personnel in the bedroom too.”
Until now, the Kings had protected the outside of their bedrooms. But that was meaningless against Kang Jun-hyeok. Having heard the news of continuous deaths, they seemed to have stationed elite forces inside the bedroom.
“Hup!”
A sharp great sword aims for Kang Jun-hyeok’s neck. As he swings his sword to deflect it, ice fragments come pouring down behind it.
Tap tap.
He kicks off the ground and launches his body. The Knight Commander immediately follows and thrusts his great sword.
Clang!
As he strikes away the sword rippling with aura, he feels the repulsion force. Flames explode behind him.
Whoooosh!
The flames engulf Kang Jun-hyeok. The Mage’s face brightens.
“Got him!”
But soon that face was colored with shock. As the flames subsided, Kang Jun-hyeok revealed himself without any significant injuries. It was the power of the Fire Resistance skill.
“How! Even if you have a resistance artifact, to block my magic so perfectly like that!”
“Hmm.”
The Knight Commander and the Mage.
Both were strong.
They weren’t opponents to be taken lightly.
So he too would get a little serious. Kang Jun-hyeok’s eyes grew cold.
The Knight Commander pressed forward with his aura-rippling sword. Kang Jun-hyeok moved his body to block it. The Mage aimed for an opening and cast magic.
The one who must be killed first was, as always, the Mage. Kang Jun-hyeok raised his sword.
[Sword Energy Wind Blade.]
Boom!
“Graaah!”
The explosion of sword qi engulfs the Knight Commander. Shock appears on the face of the Knight Commander who barely managed to defend.
“H-how can you use sword qi so easily!”
Manifesting sword qi is never easy. Even the Knight Commander who had reached a certain level needed a preparation process to gather his strength, but Kang Jun-hyeok fired it immediately without any preparation.
That wasn’t the end of it.
[Thrust.]
Clang!
A powerful thrust aims for the Knight Commander’s neck. The Knight Commander draws out his aura to defend.
Those who wield aura and those who don’t. The difference in power between the two is immense. The accepted theory was that they could never be reached.
However.
Clang!
The Knight Commander who had drawn out his aura was helplessly pushed back by a simple thrust. It was the power of skills and stats.
“Cough!”
Taking advantage of the gap while the Knight Commander was neutralized, Kang Jun-hyeok rushed at the Mage.
[Stealth.]
[Charge.]
Kang Jun-hyeok’s figure disappears. The Mage who was about to attack hesitates. He hurriedly tried to activate defensive magic, but it was already too late.
“B-barrier. Protect me…”
Crack.
The sword pierces through the Mage’s neck.
The mage’s writhing body goes limp. The King screams.
“Court Mage!”
“You bastard!”
The Knight Commander takes his stance and charges again. Kang Jun-hyeok gathers his Internal Energy. He strikes with intense force.
Kwaaaaang!
“Kueeeok!”
The Knight Commander is slammed into the wall.
Kang Jun-hyeok lightly flicks his finger.
[Spear Throwing.]
Swaaek!
The Knight never expected the spear to fly in an arc and couldn’t respond. The flying spear pierces straight through the Knight’s chest. The Knight Commander’s body shudders and then goes limp.
[ Divine Technique proficiency has increased slightly.]
[Sword Energy Wind Blade proficiency has increased.]
[Thrust proficiency…]
The Knight Commander and the Court Mage.
Both were above Kang Jun-hyeok in their respective domains.
But that was all there was to it. He was a Player, after all.
“…This is impossible!”
The King shouts in denial.
His proud Knight Commander and Court Mage had fallen to the intruder before his eyes.
Kang Jun-hyeok shook the blood off his sword.
“It’ll be annoying if the others come. So, I’ll finish this quickly.”
“Ah, ahhh!”
The King screamed. By the time the soldiers arrived, Kang Jun-hyeok had long since escaped.
‘One King remains.’
Now it was the last one. Kang Jun-hyeok headed toward the final remaining kingdom.
