For You (2)
The Red Hood Guild belongs to the top 200 guilds in our country’s guild rankings.
Guild Master Hell was a level 335 user who ranked 3rd among archers in our country.
And the Red Hood Guild is generally a guild that people avoid confronting.
This was because the guild itself was formed as a murderer guild with poor manners.
High rankers don’t avoid conflicts with them out of fear.
Do you avoid shit because you’re scared of it? You avoid it because it’s dirty.
Anyway, each member of this Red Hood Guild was strong.
The guild admission requirement was that you had to be a high-level user of level 300 or above.
There were as many as 40 such people.
And users who enjoyed poor manners were especially welcomed.
This is how the Red Hood Guild was completed.
When Red Dragon Captain Kun came with an enormous sum of money recently, Hell welcomed him.
‘Massacre? That’s our specialty, so don’t worry.’
‘Massacre? That’s our specialty, so don’t worry.’
‘Massacre? That’s our specialty, so don’t worry.’
Hell and his guild members had participated in countless massacres so far, and requests came in quite frequently.
The reason people sought them out?
It was because they could kill large numbers quickly in a short time.
Unlike knight or assassin classes that had to get close to enemies, they could kill people with a single arrow.
Why do they die from a single arrow?
It’s simple logic.
The targets of massacre were usually ordinary civilians.
‘Guilt? What guilt is there in killing mere NPCs?’
Hell had enjoyed this kind of hunting.
The thrilling pleasure of a person dying with a single arrow shot!
And today was no different from usual.
When guild members joined forces and shot arrows to sweep away 100 people at once.
An unexpected event occurred.
Whoooooosh-
Over a hundred of their arrows instantly turned to ash and scattered.
Then client Kun suddenly flew backward.
Hell couldn’t tell who had caused this strange occurrence.
‘Who the hell is it?’
An unofficial ranker?
He was even a possessor of a legendary artifact beyond legends.
But he could only sneer.
What could just one guy do?
At that moment.
Whiiiiiing-
With a rough sound cutting through air, an arrow struck the heart of a guild member right next to him.
Thuuuuud-
That arrow had an arrow shaft much shorter than ordinary arrows.
The arrow instantly pierced through the guild member’s armor and sent him flying about 10 meters.
“Phils, are you okay…?”
Level 301 archer Phils.
Hell, who had turned to look at him, was utterly bewildered.
“Ugh, aaaaah, wh, what is this!”
He struggled against the flames attached to his body, then turned to ash and disappeared.
“O, one shot?”
Hell couldn’t help but feel bewildered.
There are three classes with the lowest HP in Ares.
Mages had the lowest HP, followed by assassins, and then archers.
Most archers invest heavily in agility stats.
That’s because it increases accuracy and destructive power.
‘Even so, with just one arrow?’
At that moment.
Whooooosh-
Thuuuud-
Crack-
Hell watched guild members get sent flying by arrows coming at 2-second intervals.
“Ugh, aaaaah!”
“What is this!”
Kheok!”
“Gah!”
At first he thought the enemy was shooting fire arrows. But that wasn’t it.
Ordinary arrows flew over and flames ignited the moment they made direct hits.
‘Th, this is impossible… how can this be possible…?’
And at that moment.
Whiiiiiing-
Hell felt an arrow pierce through his chest.
“Ugh, aaaaah!”
Hell, 3rd ranked archer.
After flying about 7 meters, he felt hot flames clinging to his body.
[Flames that don’t easily extinguish ignite.]
[You have allowed a critical hit attack.]
[HP drops below 22%.]
Hell, who hastily extinguished the flames on his body, wore an expression of disbelief.
Mysterious arrows that kept flying in.
Craaash-
Power that could even shatter rocks.
‘Th, this is a basic attack?’
He realized it after being hit directly.
He had thought it was a skill manifestation, but this was literally a basic attack.
‘Guild members logged out from a single basic attack?’
Jumong’s Horn Bow has an attack power in the 600s.
And the bows that ordinary users wield have attack power in the 350-400 range.
Furthermore, Jumong’s Horn Bow greatly increases critical hit probability based on accuracy enhancement.
On top of that, the destructive power of the Short Arrow and the synergy between the Horn Bow and Short Arrow amplified those forces once more.
What’s even more absurd is.
Kwajaaaaak-
An arrow that hit another guild member beside him once again.
‘500m?’
A range that defies common sense.
Guild members shoot arrows toward the enemy.
The arrows that flew lost their power and fell to the ground.
In other words, that bow’s range is about twice as far.
[You have been attacked by Ian.]
[Since you are a Chaos user, Ian will not enter Chaos state.]
Hell was even more shocked to learn that the target was Ian, a falling ranker.
Hell was one of the users who anonymously mocked Ian while watching him post daily on Hyeon’s Blacksmith Shop.
‘This is impossible…’
And Hell came up with a clever plan.
“Everyone hide behind the rocks and run toward the prisoners!”
If he’s far away, we just need to bring him within our range.
When all guild members ran toward the prisoners, the incoming arrows stopped.
He was closing the distance with them.
300m.
250m.
200m.
When he finally arrived, Hell trembled with excitement.
‘Finally within range…!’
Seeing Ian who had gotten much closer, Hell sneered at him.
‘You’re dead now…’
Then Hell’s eyes widened.
Around Ian, who had nocked a single arrow, massive flames erupted upward.
Hwareureureureuk-
Flames that soared up to 5 meters high were absorbed into his arrow.
Taaaat-
The moment he released the bowstring, Hell’s eyes bulged.
A concentrated mass containing the hot flames that had been surging massively.
[Flame Guided Shot]
That single arrow pierced through one guild member who was at the front.
Hwaaaak-!
The guild member’s flesh instantly burst into flames, became a skeletal form, and even that form crumbled into bone dust and scattered.
But that single arrow didn’t stop and continued forward.
The second person.
The third person.
The fifth person.
“Wh-what is this arrow!”
Kwajiik-!
The sixth person.
Pueot
The eighth person.
“Krhaaaak!”
The ninth person.
Pueseo!
“Uh, uaaaah!”
Only after burning ten people did it fall to the ground.
‘An arrow that hits ten people with certainty?’
Only then did Hell realize one fact.
Ian, who had once fallen.
He would be recorded as our country’s greatest archer in both name and reality.
‘No, perhaps…?’
Hell, who was being forcibly logged out by an arrow piercing his heart, thought.
‘Maybe the world’s greatest?’
It was the same as always.
Hyeon-su didn’t retreat in moments of crisis where he was bound to lose, but burned with the will to win.
[A story for you begins.]
And he was surprised by the notification he heard. Hyeon-su had heard it many times before.
A new story begins.
However, this was different.
[You have overcome new stories that put you in great crisis through your own methods.]
[Those stories have connected, and today you finally create your own new story.]
Ttiring!
[Your own story will give much more maximized rewards than new stories.]
Hyeon-su realized.
The many hardships and difficulties he had overcome.
The system’s special treatment based on that.
Something that gives much superior and greater rewards than existing new stories.
Ttiring!
[Your Own Quest: Achieve victory against Red Dragon Corps Leader Kun]
Grade: SS
Restriction: Your own story initiator
Reward: Miraculous negotiation skill increase
Penalty upon failure: Death of all prisoners.
Description: A story exclusively for you has erupted, maximizing rewards. Achieve victory over Red Dragon Guild Leader Kun.
New stories always made Hyeon-su’s heart race.
Tension and fear, followed by anticipation and joy for the rewards to come.
‘This story is prepared exclusively for me.’
The miraculous negotiation skill increase written in the rewards.
He was also excited to see how much that amount would be.
He chewed and swallowed the grapes in his mouth.
[Experience gain rate and artifact drop rate increased by 50%.]
[All stats are maximized.]
[All stats increased by 26%.]
Powerful strength surged through Hyeon-su’s entire body.
[Please select a skill to activate twice consecutively.]
Hyeon-su already knew this wouldn’t be an easy opponent.
The wall of an 80-level difference.
‘I only have 12% HP left.’
The enemy’s HP is 89%.
And.
[Assassin’s Domain]
[A 100m radius becomes his domain.]
[Within that domain, the assassin’s movement speed and attack speed increase by 2x.]
Kun sensed danger and unleashed his peak power.
Crack-
The moment he stepped on the ground, he disappeared from sight.
Left.
Right.
Above.
Kun appeared from various places at an untraceable speed and thrust his dagger into the heart.
Thud-
But Hyeon-su wasn’t pushed back. He gripped Kun’s right hand with both hands.
At that moment.
[You possess Asnium.]
[HP has dropped below 10%.]
[HP recovers to 15%.]
Hyeon-su’s eyes flashed open.
It was true that the attack was unavoidable.
That’s why he chose this.
In that split second, Hyeon-su mapped out his movement in his head.
Only these two times.
‘I must kill the assassin with 90% HP in these two attempts.’
So he thoroughly visualized it in his mind.
[You have selected Ghost Step.]
Stable count: total 16 times.
“Ghost Step.”
His figure disappeared.
Ghost Step activated on only one target.
Crash-
Thud
Thump thump
Slash!
Thud
Crash-
Thud-!
Bang-!
“Ugh!”
Eight afterimages of Hyeon-su were carved into Kun.
And the final attack was an upward strike.
Kun was sent flying upward.
[Kun’s HP is below 50%.]
Kun was the leader of the Red Dragon Guild.
He was someone who had once witnessed Bell’s Ghost Step firsthand.
Hyeon-su didn’t know, but Kun knew that Bell’s Ghost Step could reach up to 24 times at full power.
But this guy only managed 8 times in one use.
And it was only 8 times in a time that was 0.4 seconds longer.
Kun was certain.
The moment this Ghost Step ended, the final dagger he had thrust would turn him to ash.
“Ghost Step.”
Hyeon-su activated it once more.
Crash-
Thud
Crack
Thump-
Thud
Clang
Moreover, Kun currently dominated this space, overwhelmingly transcending his usual self.
Clang-!
He deflected the 6th sword.
Thud-
He blocked the incoming fist with both arms.
Whoosh
He twisted and dodged the sword swung from the side.
The wit of an assassin group leader exceeded common sense.
“You lost.”
[Kun’s HP is below 18%.]
Kun was confident of victory seeing himself still standing strong.
At that moment, Hyeon-su became calm.
In the past, Hyeon-su had achieved 9 strikes in 1 second at the banquet hall.
He recalls and feels the sensation from that time.
‘This is how I did it.’
There were still 0.4 seconds remaining that hadn’t passed yet.
Hyeon-su moves without stopping.
9th strike.
Swish—
Kun, who was slashed on his side, panicked.
‘What, what!?’
And the 10th, 11th strikes. His sword strikes down from all directions.
Kun wasn’t just taking hits either.
Swish—
Slash—
He cuts through Hyeon-su’s afterimages, dealing damage to him.
Hyeon-su’s afterimage moves without stopping.
12th strike.
Slaaash—
13th strike.
Thwaaack—
Kun, who was hit by a kick, couldn’t believe it.
Crack—!
14th, 15th strikes.
‘This is impossible….’
A mere blacksmith had activated Ghost Step 15 times.
But Kun barely realized that he had won.
He still had 5% HP remaining.
On the other hand, that blacksmith named Hyeon looked like he could be killed with just one slash of his dagger.
Just then.
Crackle—
Kun could see the sword that had somehow appeared in his hand.
“Frost Flower.”
A sword that freezes the surrounding air. At that moment, Kun realized.
‘He made me panic with the first Ghost Step….’
While activating the second Ghost Step, Hyeon had used a power whose cooldown had returned.
He hadn’t noticed because he was focused on Ghost Step.
The arm that was extending to pierce through Hyeon’s chest wouldn’t obey him.
The cold energy emanating from that sword froze Kun’s arm, which was already exhausted to the limit.
Clang—
As his arm froze, Kun dropped his dagger.
Soon, Red Dragon Captain Kun’s entire body was frozen solid.
Hyeon-su, who fell together with him, soon heard a harsh sound.
Crash—!
It was the sound of Kun shattering.
Hyeon-su, who barely achieved victory, was curious.
Currently, he was receiving a 2x negotiation power boost and a 1.5x experience gain boost.
Additionally, due to the “Story for You” event, it stated that he would gain tremendous negotiation power upon defeating Red Dragon Captain Kun.
‘Indeed, how far will I rise today.’
Negotiation power.
This determined his title and was proof of all his achievements so far.
Rumble—
Countless notifications struck Hyeon-su, who had fallen belatedly.
