Chapter 208

 

Episode 208.

 

Following the 1 vs 30, an ambition to conversely annihilate the guild.

 

It was something only Kaiser could say, but even for Kaiser, this time it was truly hard to accept.

 

‘What did I just hear?’

 

‘He’s going to do the annihilating? Is that right?’

 

‘Right… Isn’t that way too arrogant though.’

 

‘Someone who hasn’t even reached max level talking about annihilation is a bit…’

 

Such thoughts were bound to arise.

 

No matter what conditions you considered, Kaiser alone couldn’t annihilate the Hero Guild.

 

If there was any hope to be seen, it was that the accessories glimpsed during selfie mode were glowing with a brilliant purple light?

 

But without knowing the enhancement levels of armor and weapons, it was hard to guarantee victory with just that.

 

-Isn’t this just aggro?

 

-Nah, could it really be true? He’s probably just putting on a show.

 

That’s aggro. He’s putting on a show.

 

It was natural to think that way.

 

But the time it took Dohyun to prove it through action was shorter than the time viewers spent being so certain.

 

Swoosh!

 

-Huh?

 

-Crazy…!

 

As soon as he finished speaking, Kaiser jumped off the cliff without a moment’s hesitation.

 

-No way, he actually jumped off that?

 

-Is this right? Is this right? Is this right? Is this right?

 

-Isn’t this a suicide squad!

 

The viewers who never expected him to actually jump were stunned.

 

Godose is quite a realistic game, so falling from high places or hitting terrain reduces health.

 

In other words, to the viewers, what Kaiser was doing could only look like suicide.

 

It looked the same to Berjhe’s eyes.

 

‘Am I seeing this wrong?’

 

When people experience something too unreasonable, they doubt reality.

 

He rubbed his eyes wondering what this was, but nothing changed.

 

He could still hear the loud sound of cutting through wind and fluttering, and the screen showed the interior of the guild castle becoming clearer and clearer.

 

The viewers who ended up watching the scene of rapid descent from the cliff live in real-time could only be stunned and dazed.

 

“Huh? What, what’s that.”

 

“What’s wrong?”

 

“Look at the sky, something’s falling?”

 

“What do you mean falling. Your salary?”

 

The same went for the guild members who were busily moving inside the guild.

 

Something was suddenly falling from the clear sky, so they couldn’t help but be distracted.

 

“No, something really is falling, you bastard!”

 

“What could be there… Huh? What’s that. A person…?”

 

“Wait, that outfit… Could it be Kai…!!”

 

The moment they vaguely grasped the identity of what was falling.

 

Flash-

 

[A mark is being created.]

 

“Huh? It disappeared… Huh? A mark?”

 

“What, where did it go?”

 

Kaiser, who had been falling, disappeared as if erased by an eraser.

 

While everyone was expressing confusion about this.

 

A companion’s scream-like shout came from behind.

 

“Hey you bastards, look behind you!!”

 

“Behind? Why behind… Gah!?”

 

But it was a step too late.

 

Slash-!

 

Kaiser’s Cheonbyeon had already cut through his waist.

 

Swoosh-

 

Cheonbyeon, which had slashed in sword form, suddenly grew larger and became a scythe.

 

A brilliant purple scythe emanating a terrible aura. Kaiser, gripping it with both hands, moved.

 

Whoosh- Whoom-!

 

Slash-!

 

That was the end.

 

The companion whose waist had been cut by the rapid consecutive attacks couldn’t even scream and fell helplessly.

 

“Ja, Jacob?”

 

“What, what is it. What happened! Why is he appearing from the sky!”

 

“Ka, Kaiser…! It’s really Kaiser!”

 

“What the hell is going on. Wasn’t the annihilation supposed to be tomorrow?”

 

“Should we call this… a surprise attack?”

 

A surprise attack far beyond common sense, a companion taken down in an instant.

 

In this abnormal situation where nothing was predictable, they hesitated and couldn’t charge right away.

 

And during that time, the Guardians summoned beside Kaiser.

 

-Wow, give me a heads up before jumping, Owner. Really startled me… Huh? What, you already took down one guy?

 

-Rizariza! Risa!

 

-It’s a combat situation. This humble sword will assist you diligently, Master.

 

Jihad making a fuss and stepping back, Eliza clapping saying it’s amazing as Charlie taught her.

 

And Charlie, befitting a former knight commander, immediately assessing the situation and drawing his sword.

 

-You all. What are you doing instead of getting ready.

 

-Ah, right. Then I’m going.

 

-Risa!

 

At Charlie’s rebuke, Jihad immediately took combat stance and raised black mana.

 

Groooan- Grooan-

 

Then over ten various undead burst through the ground and revealed themselves.

 

From Ghost Soldiers to Troll Undead, Orc Undead…, and even the Leader of the Outlaws who had reigned as Sargis’s nightmare.

 

Clatter-

 

“Hiek?”

 

“What, what is it. Those are really the outlaws?”

 

When the Leader of the Outlaws appeared making eerie bone sounds and flashed red eyes, the guild members were startled and stepped back.

 

They had all passed through Sargis.

 

Having felt overwhelmed by Suffering back then, their bodies reacted first.

 

Clatter- Clatter clatter-

 

That Suffering looked down arrogantly at the guild members.

 

With Suffering at the center, over ten undead spread out widely, emanating an ominous presence.

 

-Ahem!

 

-Risa!

 

On the opposite side of that suffering, Charlie gripping his sword and taking stance, and Jihad and Eliza standing proudly behind him.

 

Finally, at their center.

 

Step, step.

 

Kaiser, who had walked forward one step with his scythe on his shoulder, grinned and uttered a word.

 

“Now then, let’s begin the Hero Guild annihilation broadcast.”

 

“…What?”

 

“That crazy bastard…! I don’t know what’s going on, but kill him first!”

 

“That guy is alone! A few Guardians won’t change anything. Let’s kill him before the Master arrives!”

 

It was a single phrase that broke the silence, and a magical phrase that stirred up anger to boost morale.

 

The viewers were so dumbfounded they forgot to even type in chat, and as if representing their feelings, a donation burst forth.

 

[Ast: He really was crazier than I thought.]

 

-….

 

It was a donation everyone had to acknowledge.

 

* * *

 

The moment Hero Guild’s official announcement first went up, and the moment he confirmed it.

 

Dohyun thought.

 

‘I’m screwed.’

 

Totally screwed.

 

Even though Dohyun might seem like he acts recklessly without thinking, he’s not really thoughtless.

 

He just pushes himself a bit based on his own reasoning.

 

But this wasn’t that.

 

‘Maybe in a week, but tomorrow would be difficult.’

 

If he could create a one-on-one situation, maybe, but this wasn’t an honorable duel – it was an execution.

 

Dohyun alone couldn’t handle them right now.

 

A fight with no one to help and impossible to handle alone.

 

Unlike before when he had some reasoning or small hope, this was a fight with no prospects whatsoever.

 

‘I’m totally screwed! Really.’

 

Facing what could barely be called a fight, Dohyun dry-washed his face several times.

 

Actually, there were quite a few methods.

 

If he just told Violet-Flavored Auntie right now, he could enter Babylon and be guaranteed safety.

 

But he didn’t want to do that.

 

‘What kind of disgrace would that be in front of a companion I met after so long.’

 

And aside from that, it was obvious Violet-Flavored Auntie would become an enemy of the Top 10 Guilds, so he couldn’t do that.

 

‘The Demon King’s Ring… Should I use that after all.’

 

Then the other option was indeed the Demon King’s Ring.

 

When Dohyun’s power wasn’t enough to handle something. The ring he decided to use only in such times.

 

Wasn’t this exactly the situation to use it?

 

He could escape the crisis that way, buy time, and then get revenge.

 

‘Sigh, it’s such a waste though…’

 

It was truly a waste, but it couldn’t be helped.

 

Now was the right time.

 

‘Let me just try everything I can do one last time.’

 

But the moment he finished enhancing all his equipment with the mindset of grasping at straws.

 

[You have an unused Random Skill Gacha Ticket.]

 

[Would you like to use it?]

 

[You have unconfirmed rewards.]

 

[Would you like to confirm them?]

 

And the moment he used the Random Skill Gacha Ticket he got from reaching level 70, and confirmed the graduation reward from Pratel he had been putting off.

 

The moment he saw that brilliant golden spectacle!

 

‘…Huh? This changes things.’

 

A smile formed on Dohyun’s lips.

 

And what appeared before Dohyun’s eyes was Berjhe holding a press conference.

 

‘Press conference… Tomorrow… Wait, then there’s no one at the main base right now?’

 

Meanwhile, he was in a state that couldn’t be more perfect.

 

So after going to the Boss Zone to finish testing his newly acquired skill’s performance, he turned on the broadcast and invaded the main base – that’s where he was now.

 

Slash-! Stab!

 

Crack! Crunch!

 

And it was an excellent strategy.

 

He could properly ransack an empty house.

 

Stab! Stab stab! Stab!

 

“Urgh! These bastards are weird! Get them off me!”

 

“Hey hey, don’t come this way!”

 

“Damn, what is this spider web!”

 

-Kehehehe! Well done, my children!

 

-Rizariza!

 

Groups caught and unable to properly shake off the mad obsession of the undead legion led by Suffering.

 

-Tsk tsk, I heard you were a Top 100 Guild so I had expectations, but your swordsmanship is worse than a common soldier’s. Are you guys last place among the Top 100 Guilds?

 

“That damn bastard. I’ve been waiting since the tutorial!”

 

-Seems like you only waited all this time, your skills are lacking… Ah! So that’s why you were a Top 100 Guild? Now I understand.

 

“Come out, I’ll kill that thing.”

 

Groups losing their minds and getting their aggro pulled by Charlie’s flashy verbal attacks.

 

And lastly…

 

[Fierce Strike Slash is activated.]

 

[The sword is imbued with the energy of Fierce Strike.]

 

Dohyun joyfully swinging his scythe while imbuing Cheonbyeon, transformed into a terrible nightmare scythe, with the energy of Fierce Strike.

 

[Maximum stack state.]

 

[Maximum effect of Fierce Strike is applied.]

 

“Kugh!”

 

“Kyaaaah!”

 

Dohyun’s Fierce Strike, already stacked to maximum after over ten strikes, was like a destructive tank.

 

The way to stop Fierce Strike was to prevent the caster from swinging for more than 1 second.

 

Not a difficult condition, but for them right now, it was the most difficult task.

 

“Why is Fierce Strike Slash so powerful!”

 

“Shit, does this make sense? That bastard is level 71! Why is his damage so high!?”

 

“And what are those Guardians. These bastards are all god-tier!”

 

While not quite one-shot kills, it was enough to blow away everyone blocking his path.

 

Even if they wanted to block, they couldn’t readily stand in his way.

 

And if they tried rushing from the sides, the Guardians were the problem.

 

Whoosh- Crack!

 

With aggro properly drawn, all flanks were protected, and whenever they managed to close in for a fight, they invariably took a counter and fell pathetically.

 

For them, this was incomprehensible.

 

‘W-we’re higher level though…’

 

‘I’m level 91, does this make sense?’

 

‘That person who fell earlier was level 98! A level 71 shouldn’t be able to beat them.’

 

‘This is ridiculous, this is cheating. Cheating!’

 

Though they weren’t elite combat personnel, they were still combat members of a Top 100 Guild.

 

They had combat power and specs worthy enough to be proud of their Top 100 Guild membership.

 

No, setting that aside, that guy was level 71. And they were at least level 90 or above.

 

Yet the one who was actually stronger was the other side – it was completely incomprehensible.

 

‘Of course I should be strong.’

 

But from Dohyun’s perspective, it was perfectly natural.

 

Contrary to their thoughts, Dohyun’s current level was 72 after killing a field boss.

 

[+12 Karuk’s Essence Ring that Splits Rock]

 

[+12 Ominous Nightmare Earring]

 

…

 

[+12 Taksinel’s Dark Armor]

 

And all his accessories and equipment were enhanced to the maximum +12 enhancement level.

 

And the same was true for Cheonbyeon as well… This was the most unexpected part.

 

[+12 Cheonbyeon (Thousand Changes)]

 

[Weapon is at maximum enhancement level.]

 

[Enhancement effects apply to all weapons stored in Cheonbyeon, and the special options from +11 and +12 enhancement are also applied.]

 

‘This is seriously overpowered.’

 

The total number of weapons stored in Cheonbyeon was six.

 

Dohyun was essentially wielding six +12 weapons simultaneously.

 

Right now it was only six weapons so it was this much, but if more were added, he’d have even more +12 weapons.

 

‘Damn… This is why you use mythic items.’

 

It was an overpowered performance worthy of the first mythic-grade weapon.

 

But the real highlight was something else.

 

‘I didn’t expect this to appear.’

 

A new skill that occupied a skill slot instead of the bleeding skill.

 

Dohyun grinned as he looked at ‘that thing’ with its brilliant golden border and the ‘God’s Tear’ graduation reward sitting in his inventory.
