Episode 45
Chapter 45: Reward? Reward! (2)
After manifesting Agni and being confident of victory, Jerpael wanted to ask Dohyun how this had happened, but Dohyun was equally bewildered.
Though they were in the middle of battle, Dohyun made a dumbfounded sound while staring at Agni. He had dismissed the point acquisition messages during the chaotic fight, but he couldn’t help but pay attention to the newly appeared message.
What the hell is this?
The analysis stated that Dohyun’s various skills had helped with spirit magic, allowing him to temporarily subjugate Agni. At this, Dohyun grinned wickedly, and feeling an ominous chill from that sinister smile, Jerpael drew his sword, but it was already too late.
Dohyun quickly extended his hand toward Agni. Agni, following Dohyun’s will, stretched out his hand and unleashed scorching heat, shooting deep blue flames at Jerpael.
Jerpael, who tried to raise his sword to cut through the flames, and the elf right beside him both melted away, leaving only ash before disappearing from the world. Agni also waved his hand toward Dohyun with regret as Jerpael vanished.
As the battle ended in an instant, Park Insu, who had been quite far away, started to rush out but hesitated and stopped, staring blankly with a dazed expression at the cleanly resolved situation.
And it wasn’t just Park Insu who stood frozen in place with that bewildered expression.
The hunters from the Korean Hunter Association who had come to support at the call of Park Insu, Jeong Sangyun, and Kim Jinha were also frozen in place.
“Th-the elves…”
“They literally melted???”
“Cr-crazy.”
A total of ten people had been mobilized, making thirteen including Park Insu’s party, but seeing the show of ten elves disappearing in an instant in less than a minute left everyone stunned.
Having experienced Dohyun’s party’s firepower, they couldn’t voice any complaints.
Rather.
“This is no joke, right?”
“Who is that party? I’ve never seen them before…”
“Three people completely dominated ten elves???”
“And it looks like they just came out of a dungeon…”
“Does that even make sense?”
Being Association members, they were used to this kind of support work.
But this situation was completely beyond their understanding.
As everyone was clicking their tongues in amazement, some of them looked at Park Insu and asked.
“Who are those people, I mean, those individuals?”
“Are they about to be promoted?”
“Park Insu, since you called them, you must know something?”
“Guild members? Or Association…?”
“…”
Everyone asked out of curiosity, but Park Insu couldn’t give a proper answer either.
Park Insu barely knew anything himself.
However, there was one thing he could answer with certainty.
“They’ll definitely be promoted soon, that’s for sure.”
“…Right.”
“If those people don’t get promoted quickly, what are we supposed to do for a living?”
“Exactly.”
Everyone nodded at Park Insu’s words.
If Dohyun’s party couldn’t get promoted, which party could?
Anyway, since everyone’s work had disappeared, they scattered saying they should disband, and Dohyun’s party, having used considerable concentration in that brief moment, was shaking their heads in bewilderment.
And among them, Dohyun, who had been the main force, was grinning with great satisfaction while thinking to himself.
‘How much is all this worth?’
He had acquired a whopping 26,351 points.
‘Ah, I think I’m going to get addicted to villain hunting.’
Anyway, since they had resolved one matter, it was time to return to the dormitory.
* * *
First day at the E-grade Area Floating Island.
Dohyun’s party could be said to have spent their first day more productively than any other party.
On their first day, they earned nearly 2,000 points from hunting right after arriving, and on top of that, they even annihilated a dungeon and two elf parties, accomplishing three things that would be difficult for any other party to handle even one of.
Thanks to that, they gained quite a lot.
Unfortunately, he couldn’t make a contract with Agni.
Since Agni was already under contract with Jerpael, it seemed duplicates weren’t allowed.
Still, he wasn’t too disappointed. Just the skills he gained were something.
From Secret Technique – Teleportation to Spirit Magic, even though he couldn’t make a contract.
Not just skills, but the points were also tremendous.
‘Wow.’
Dohyun’s mouth fell open as he looked at his points.
A unit digit he had never seen before.
If converted to money, these points were worth over 300 million won. Since he had plenty of AP and didn’t need to exchange it, this meant he could really convert all of it to pure money.
‘This is really amazing.’
It was such a large amount that it made him forget about the 15 million won that had disappeared at once yesterday due to student loans, and Dohyun couldn’t help but smile even when he tried not to.
What was even more amazing was that this was only the first day.
Perhaps due to exhaustion, Hanalin and Jiyuchan had come into the dormitory, washed up, and immediately collapsed into sleep, but Dohyun couldn’t sleep because of all these things.
Moreover, Dohyun took out and examined the item he had obtained from defeating the dungeon boss this time.
Though it was a simple and clean description, what it contained was substantial.
Since it was a necklace that could even grant a sixth sense, its effects seemed considerable.
Usually when such items drop, they say you use them after having them appraised by appraisers. If you can’t trust appraisers, there are sometimes items like stone tablets – there were also items called appraisal stones that would disappear if a non-hunter tried to appraise an item.
But what use would that be to Dohyun?
He already knew the abilities through analysis.
However.
‘Since the whole party caught it together, let’s discuss it first.’
Since it wasn’t just Dohyun’s, he thought they should discuss it tomorrow, and as things were somewhat settled, his excited heart gradually calmed down and drowsiness began to pour over him.
Thus, another day in the E-rank Zone came to an end.
* * *
After Jerpael’s death.
A small ripple occurred on Floating Island Parvie.
The death of an elf wasn’t common, but it was something that happened occasionally.
However, since their numbers weren’t that large, they always traveled in groups of 10, so cases of total annihilation were even rarer. In other words, the total annihilation of Jerpael’s team and his support team – a total of 10 people – was particularly exceptional.
At first, they didn’t know when Jerpael died, but gradually they lost contact with him, and when several party leader-level elves sent their party members to the area Jerpael was in charge of to find him but couldn’t, several party leaders gathered.
“Is it true that Jerpael has disappeared?”
“Hmm, he was arrogant but capable enough to summon intermediate fire spirits, yet he disappeared so easily.”
Certainly, Jerpael’s disappearance was bound to be full of questions.
One of them thought of such a Jerpael and said.
“Did he discover a dungeon and is clearing it?”
“Jerpael? No way. Even if his skills were good, he was only at a decent level among elf knights. He wasn’t any better than us.”
But it was immediately denied.
Jerpael’s trait grade through Dohyun’s analysis was B-rank. It was a high grade, but not at an overwhelming level. And that didn’t apply only to Dohyun.
It was even more so because elves were a superior race where quite a few talented individuals had been discovered throughout their long history.
A skilled person like Jerpael wasn’t common, but wasn’t at a level that was hard to see either.
That’s why it was even more incomprehensible.
There was no way a skilled person like Jerpael would abandon his mission, and this mission included confirming that very prophecy and finding out who the protagonist of the prophecy was.
Everyone was desperately focused, but Jerpael’s sudden disappearance was causing confusion.
However, there was another problem.
“After today passes, the day when the prophesied dungeon appears will be over.”
“It was said to be a dungeon that appears within a fortnight, but during that period we haven’t seen even a tail of a dungeon, let alone the dungeon itself.”
“That means…”
They hadn’t discovered a dungeon either.
Given clues up to this point, even an idiot could figure it out.
Though it was an unpleasant matter, someone had to do it, so one of the Elf Leaders quietly opened his mouth.
“…Hmm. Someone already cleared it, and Jerpael noticed and tried to catch them but was defeated instead?”
“That’s the most certain.”
“The problem is we can’t know for sure.”
Since dungeon sites disappear without leaving even a trace, they couldn’t know who cleared the dungeon. So they had to at least find traces of the battle between Jerpael and that party.
The Elf Leaders had already ordered the Elf Party Members to thoroughly search the area Jerpael was in charge of, so it wouldn’t take much time.
Sure enough, it didn’t take long before several Elf Party Members appeared, bowed their heads, and made their report.
“We found a place with traces of battle.”
At those words, the Elf Leaders all began moving without anyone going first, and the Elf Party Members guided them.
The place where the five Elf Leaders arrived only had traces of a rather one-sided battle.
Two long and deep pits as if long, deep pillars had been driven in.
And two cuts that deeply slashed the ground.
Finally, one trace where the ground had been melted and hardened into something hard and shiny like glass.
Seeing this, the Elf Leaders grimly frowned.
They especially frowned at the last trace.
The earlier pits were unknown, but the long cuts were obviously traces of swordsmanship. However, the last trace was one that elves couldn’t fail to recognize.
“It’s a spirit.”
“It’s firepower from an intermediate spirit of Agni-class or higher.”
“No, it might be a bit higher than Agni.”
“…It’s traces of blue flame. Agni’s superior.”
Since the elves didn’t know that Dohyun had temporarily grown stronger with power from the Ether Heart, they assessed it as a spirit superior to Agni.
Therefore.
“There was a Spirit Mage who surpassed Jerpael.”
“Since that guy was a spirit knight, even a Spirit Mage of the same level would defeat Jerpael, but if they could use traces of this blue flame…”
“It means they’re a skilled person at least similar to us.”
The five Elf Leaders assessed it that way and frowned.
They had no choice but to conclude that the identity of the prophecy’s protagonist who would open a new transcendence was a high-level Spirit Mage who commanded spirits.
And after reaching that conclusion, the five Elf Leaders spoke.
“We’ll have to report this to higher-ups.”
“The Elder Council won’t be pleased.”
“It can’t be helped.”
“Let’s investigate further for now.”
“We’ll investigate all Spirit Mages in the E-rank Zone.”
Because of Dohyun, innocent Spirit Mages were about to get caught up in unexpected trouble, but Dohyun was just sleeping soundly.
Of course, even if he knew, there was a high probability he wouldn’t particularly care.
