Episode 105

The sound of air being torn echoed in his ears.

Along with the wind blowing from beside him.

Choi Hyun-min didn’t even think.

He simply twisted his body slightly with his reaction speed alone and moved away from his position.

Whoosh!

“Hyun-min sir!”

Behind him, Im Ye-seo’s urgent voice could be heard.

When he turned his eyes, in the spot where Choi Hyun-min had been standing just moments ago was the barbarian warrior Dehof.

And-

“A werewolf?”

A house-sized Werewolf stood on two legs with its claws fully extended.

Unlike ordinary werewolves, this one was easily two to three times larger.

The bloodstains scattered across its grayish-brown fur looked threatening at first glance.

Grrrowl.

Perhaps it meant that while he avoided it once, there wouldn’t be a second time.

The beast turned its elongated snout toward him.

-What kind of safety is this place, you filthy beast!

Fortunately, Dehof was there.

The barbarian warrior holding a large adamantium axe blocked its path.

Kerheng!

As if it had been waiting, the werewolf charged toward Dehof.

Its disgusting snout gaped wide open as it flew toward him.

Indeed, befitting a creature that appeared in the Upper Labyrinth, it had fast speed.

However, the Werewolf’s agility was far inferior to Dehof’s.

-You’re slow, you bastard!

Whoosh.

Dehof slightly turned his body to avoid the Werewolf’s charge.

He immediately raised his axe all the way above his head-

And brought it straight down.

Thunk.

The heavy blade fell with a crisp sound.

Dehof’s axe precisely split the werewolf from the crown of its head to its groin.

Vertically cutting it in half.

Crack.

The werewolf split like a watermelon in a single blow.

Hot liquid gushed forth.

Thud.

Two chunks of meat collapsed powerlessly to the ground.

-Master, are you alright?

“I’m fine.”

-That’s a relief. That lowly beast nearly injured you, Master.

Just moments ago he had split the werewolf in half like slicing radish.

Now the barbarian warrior’s large eyes sparkled as he checked on Choi Hyun-min’s wellbeing.

Choi Hyun-min expressed his gratitude to him and turned his eyes to the distance.

“It seems like there aren’t just one or two of them.”

Kyaaaak!

Screams could be heard from far away.

So what he heard earlier was because of these creatures.

When he raised his head and looked to the opposite side, he could see several Hunters.

And the Werewolves fighting them.

No, to be precise, it was a one-sided hunt.

“Someone please deal with these bastards!”

“Are these really werewolves? Why are they so damn strong?!”

“Fuck! This has got to be a joke!”

Werewolves drooling as they chased humans.

And Hunters running away without rest.

They had even thrown away their weapons, seemingly judging that there was no chance of victory.

“…It’s embarrassing, but those are our guild members.”

Im Ye-seo, who had been watching that scene.

She turned her head toward Choi Hyun-min.

“From Heukpung?”

“Yes, that’s right.”

Though her words were brief.

Choi Hyun-min interpreted Im Ye-seo’s words as a request for help.

Snap.

“Hey guys.”

Choi Hyun-min nodded slightly and snapped his fingers.

At his hand signal, the Block Toys standing behind him all looked at him in unison.

-Did you call, Master?

“You see those guys? The furry wolves.”

-Should we shoot?

“…Wait just a moment.”

He kept his gaze fixed on the Werewolves and waited for a while.

Then he spoke briefly.

“Now.”

The Rocket Troopers nodded vigorously at Choi Hyun-min’s firing signal.

They immediately turned the rocket launchers on their shoulders toward the front.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

And began mercilessly bombarding the werewolves.

Exploding flames.

Physical force that exceeded human limits.

The moment those two things poured down together.

No matter how strong and tough-skinned the Werewolves were, they couldn’t withstand it.

Kyaek!

“What, what is that?!”

The Hunters who had been running around holding their heads just moments before.

They froze in place at the sight of the shells that fell before their eyes.

Along with the werewolves being torn to shreds.

“This… what the hell is this…”

Shwoooosh-

Kaboom! Bang!

The continuous sound of artillery fire.

Even as the ground shook violently and shockwaves swept over their entire bodies.

The frozen Hunters couldn’t even think of moving from their spots.

“The, the Werewolves… are dead?”

“And in one shot too…”

“A ranker…?”

Not because of the fear they felt from the Werewolves.

But overwhelming power that made even the will to resist disappear.

In front of them, the hunters became completely powerless.

Kwagwang! Bang!

The explosion sounds continued to echo several times over.

The hunters watched the situation in a half-dazed state.

The moment they came to their senses.

“What, what?! When did they all die?!”

The hunters doubted their own eyes.

The werewolves that had been chasing them just moments ago.

Those insane monsters that wouldn’t even flinch when stabbed with a sword.

Were now scattered in pieces, rolling around everywhere.

“Who on earth…”

The hunters stood still on the devastated ground.

Then slowly raised their heads to look straight ahead.

There stood soldiers in a line, rocket launchers slung over their shoulders.

“Wait, hold on. Those people…”

“I think I’ve seen them somewhere before!”

They were definitely strangers, yet somehow familiar-looking.

Then one of the hunters spotted Im Ye-seo mixed among them.

“Ye-seo!!!”

The hunters let out shrill screams like little children.

A familiar face.

Though she looked disheveled, as a member of the Black Wind Guild.

There was no way they wouldn’t recognize her.

Then those people were—

“That means… No, no way… Did Choi Hyun-min come?!”

Choi Hyun-min’s summons!

The day of the clash with the Phoenix Union.

That day, Choi Hyun-min had been imprinted as a divine being to the Black Wind Guild members.

How could they forget what happened then.

But now that same person.

Had come to help them in their moment of desperation?

“We, we’re saved!”

“Choi Hyun-min has come!”

“We’re alive!”

“Thank you!”

The Black Wind hunters urgently came to their senses.

They began running at full speed toward where Choi Hyun-min was.

“They seem to have spotted us.”

Choi Hyun-min was standing at a distance from that scene.

He naturally thought they would go to Im Ye-seo to greet her.

“Huh?!”

Thud! Thump!

As if rehearsed, they all prostrated themselves in front of Choi Hyun-min.

“Why, why are you all doing this?”

Not just one or two people.

Dozens of hunters kneeling toward him as soon as they saw him.

And in such a haggard state that they were barely distinguishable from zombies.

The flustered Choi Hyun-min waved his hands.

But the hunters were relentless.

“Thank you for saving us!”

“We survived thanks to you!”

“To save us again this time… Thank you so much!”

No one had told them to do it.

Yet they prostrated themselves flat and bowed toward him.

‘What, what’s with these people? Why are they acting like this toward me?!’

Choi Hyun-min was confused about how to react.

He unconsciously threw a pleading look at Im Ye-seo for help.

Shrug.

She only shrugged her shoulders with a mysterious smile.

‘No, but do these people even know who I am?’

Since the day he drove out the Phoenix Union from Black Wind.

Choi Hyun-min had already become famous enough within the Black Wind Guild.

Naturally, not only the guild master but also the guild members.

And someone who influenced the guild’s very fate.

No matter how much some kept their mouths shut, rumors were bound to spread.

Ironically, the only one who didn’t know this fact was Choi Hyun-min himself.

“Thank you!”

“Thank you, Choi Hyun-min!”

“To save us twice! Choi Hyun-min is Black Wind’s benefactor!”

“Ah, I get it, so please stand up!”

Of course, he couldn’t be used to this kind of situation.

He had to help them up while breaking out in a cold sweat.

‘I should get them some food first.’

Seeing their appearance, clearly having gone through terrible hardships.

Choi Hyun-min pulled out chicken from his subspace.

“Chi, chicken!”

“Crazy! Where did all this come from?”

To the hunters who had been rolling on the ground for days without a proper meal.

The food Choi Hyun-min offered felt more precious than a five-star hotel feast.

Chomp chomp.

The hunters devoured the chicken with their dirt and blood-stained hands.

Choi Hyun-min watched them quietly and muttered softly.

“Not you guys. You already ate.”

—Ah, we know…

—We did fight though, so maybe just one piece…

“When I say no, you should know it means no.”

The Black Wind hunters ate as if possessed.

Only when they regained their lost reason and recovered their strength.

Did Im Ye-seo, who had been standing nearby, approach them.

“Are you feeling better now?”

“Ye-seo! You’re alive!”

“Where did everyone else go besides those here? I know at least close to 100 people came in.”

A moment of silence at her question.

After maintaining silence for a while, they slowly opened their mouths.

“They’re dead.”

“Excuse me?”

“Probably more than half are dead. As soon as we came over here, we got hit by those damn wolf bastards.”

“That’s…”

“A few people might have escaped by chance, but the only confirmed person besides us is you.”

Twenty people? Thirty people?

At their words, Choi Hyun-min mentally counted the number of Hunters.

If really about 100 people had entered.

The survival rate would be at most only 20 to 30 percent.

[8893/10000]

He turned his eyes to check the status window.

‘It decreased again.’

It had decreased by over 1000 people from the beginning.

That meant 1000 people had already died inside here.

In terms of time, only a little over 30 hours had passed.

But so many had already died.

‘I shouldn’t delay any longer.’

At this rate, it would only be a matter of time before that number dropped to less than half.

Just as he was thinking this and trying to decide on the next destination.

“Ah, right! Did you happen to see that?”

One of the Blackwind Hunters shouted toward Choi Hyun-min.

At the same time, he stretched out his finger in the opposite direction, pointing at something.

Then the Hunters’ gazes all turned toward where the finger was pointing.

“We found something strange inside that tent over there. It was like an incredibly large gem…”

“A gem?”

“Yes. When I first saw it, I was too busy trying to survive to examine it properly… I thought maybe Choi Hyun-min might know something about it…”

“Right, I think I saw it too.”

A gem.

At their words, Choi Hyun-min got up.

He quietly approached the tent the Hunter had mentioned.

-L-let’s go together, Master!

As Choi Hyun-min moved, the Block Toys also came running in a rush.

Regardless.

He pushed his body into the tent where the Werewolves had come from.

A foul smell.

The stench of something rotting and the smell of blood.

The interior was a mixture of unidentifiable odors.

Inside the tent, crudely woven with leather, it was cramped and uncomfortable.

In a place where there were at least a dozen or so of such things.

Choi Hyun-min began searching through the tents one by one.

“Did you find something?”

Im Ye-seo, who had followed, asked from a distance.

But Choi Hyun-min only shook his head.

“No. I haven’t found anything like a gem yet…”

Choi Hyun-min answered without turning around.

The moment his hand opened the last tent.

Sparkle.

A large gem-

No, a large lamp flashed and emitted light.

Along with it.

A strange.

And familiar presence revealed itself before him.

-You’ve managed to find your way here.

A man wearing a pure white trench coat.

It was him.
