I Stole the Number One Ranker’s Soul - Chapter 119
Episode 120
“I gathered it and cleaned it up here.”
Seo Ji-han put aside the bad-tempered face he had made when he kicked Jirgis and called me with a bright smile.
Jirgis, whose charm skill had been released, was lying around looking miserable.
The guy was completely incapacitated, with the joint between his chest and stomach caught in Seo Ji-han’s scythe.
If he moves his scythe lightly, his body will be cut horizontally in an instant.
He seemed to know that he was about to be cut into four pieces by cross-cutting, so he was very calm even when I got close to him.
It seemed like he had no will to resist, and he seemed so overwhelmed by Seo Ji-han’s power that he couldn’t even think of doing so.
Maybe we can appease!
Yes, whether it is a moderate method or a harsh method, it just has to work.
Seo Ji-han, let’s try it!
Seo Ji-han, who caught my gaze, twisted Jirgis’ hard mouth open and fed him Sotong Yugwa.
Jirgis was struggling not to eat it because he thought it was poison, but he couldn’t overcome his determination and had no choice but to eat it.
The effect of ‘Item: Communication Lesson’ is applied.
‘Item: Communication Yu-Gwa’: Duration 19 minutes 59 seconds
After eating my share of the Communication Yu-Gwa and confirming that the item’s effect was properly applied, I spoke to it as politely as possible.
“Hey, Mr. Jirgis. First of all, I would like to apologize for how things ended up like this. It’s no different, but the reason I came to you today is….”
I was looking forward to it because out of all the Chungwangs I had met so far, I had the greatest hope that the conversation would work. I was looking forward to it. The courtesy I had
honed as an office worker was I started by apologizing for my behavior so far…
But before I could finish my sentence, Jirgis scolded me in a frosty tone:
“Dirty, lowly scum.”
Hey, I’ve said it over and over again, but it’s you.
The bug is you.
And it’s also the one that’s dirty.
You’re spilling various things from your stomach right now.
Of course, that’s because Seo Ji-han sliced Jirgis’ stomach lengthwise.
“The one who came today is reconciliation . I wanted to plan and form an alliance…”
Jirgis cut me off again.
“Kikik you stupid, lowly thing that doesn’t know anything.”
Jirgis continued swearing.
He wasn’t calm, he was just mulling over the humiliation.
I listened quietly to the swearing.
It was a nobler swear word than I thought. Don’t Chungwangs use obscene words as swear words? See.
How on earth do we have a culture of swearing, using the word “burrowing” as an insult on such a topic? I don’t understand. But
I also had something to say.
“You don’t know anything?”
After being cursed one-sidedly for a while, my patience was shortened as well as the length of my speech. In
response to my question, Jirgis’ warty purple eyes turned to me.
“You will all die.”
A sticky curse flowed from Jirgis’s mouth.
The eyes looking at me were burning with hatred and contempt.
“That’s right. They have a lifespan. All living things die someday.”
Jirgis was taken aback by my words for a moment, but then he glared at me again with venomous eyes.
“Your land will be taken away, and your brothers, the ones who gave birth to you, will all disappear into blood. You are stupid and foolish bastards who will not understand the situation even at the moment of death. “They’re trash that can’t even be part of the real deal.”
Is this bug cursing my family?
I thought of swear words like, ‘He’s going to spend all his money to buy pesticides’ or ‘He’s going to do a disco on an electric fly swatter,’ but I tried to hold it in. Let’s endure it. Put your hands together. If you endure it, you’ll end up in a dungeon even when you sleep
. It happens. Let’s hold on.
I tried to control my emotions by going back and forth between, ‘How can you say that? No, you can’t. Even if you say that for a moment, no, you can. Oh, but now that I think about it, I’m pissed.’ But Seo Ji-han must have had no intention of doing that, and his scythe was sharp
. I changed the angle sharply.
The Shinigami’s scythe dug into Jirgis’ chest joint.
I first raised my hand to stop Seo Ji-han.
Wait a minute, let’s talk a little more.
“Do you mean the final hall by the real fight? ”
Jirgis stopped cursing at my question.
His shocked voice continued.
“How can you, a native…?”
Ah, I see.
Basically, compared to refugees, natives are at a relative disadvantage.
Compared to refugees who survived the Last Hall and Predators once or several times, natives know too little information.
Because the system is unfriendly.
Probably in most of the world. The natives wouldn’t have even made it to the final hall. They would be
happy thinking, ‘Wow, that’s a dungeon item,’ but when monsters rush out of the dungeon, it’s game over for that day. From the
refugees’ perspective, the natives will be nothing more than prey with no qualifications to participate in the game. .
The first priority they would want to join hands with would be those who are refugees and of the same race as themselves. The
second priority would be those who are natives and of the same race. The same goes for my
country.
I became a refugee and ran away to another world, but the natives living there. What if
they came into my dungeon and started killing humans?
There was no way I could negotiate.
I understood Jirgis’s feelings.
At the same time, I also realized that it would be impossible for me to get Jirgis’ cooperation. Even
if I were of the same race as Jirgis . Even so, negotiations will not be easy.
Historically, most encounters between cultures ended in war.
Even if refugees had negotiated with the natives so far, they would not have given them information about the final hall.
Like El Fanis, they would not have been able to do it on their own. That is, unless you cannot fight a war.
In the end, you will become competitors in the final hall.
Until now, I tried to form an alliance with the refugees if possible because of the various benefits that would come from my position, but from their point of view, it was close to impossible. .
But I really wanted to form an alliance if possible.
I wanted to have hope that even if there were many conflicts, we could overcome them.
I didn’t want to eat the horn. I wanted to have one more dungeon…
“It’s not just about the final hall. Not only that, but I already know about predators. If you come in as a vassal even now, I will protect the members of this dungeon to the best of my ability…”
I offered my advice to Jirgis again, but what came back was a sharp shout that cut off the end of my sentence.
“You two-legged bastards who don’t even understand this topic! Soft lumps of meat without any skin! “How dare you bring in someone as your vassal!”
Hearing that cry, I felt the racial wall standing high between us.
“I have to collect it.”
Seo Ji-han called me and shook his head.
I looked at Jirgis with a very sad feeling.
Jirgis was spewing out all sorts of curses without letting go of his burning anger.
Well this won’t work.
it’s a shame. It’s so disappointing.
“Mr. Seo Ji-han.”
“huh. Should I cut it too?”
“Let’s chop it.”
Seo Ji-han moved his sickle and cut Jirgis horizontally.
When I saw that, I just sighed.
But I can’t help it.
No matter how much I simulated, I didn’t think Jirgis would ally with me.
King Jirgis died.
After a while, the space maintained by Jirgis’ power will be disconnected.
After Jirgis died, escape gates began to open here and there.
I quickly rooted the dead Jirgis. Then something suddenly occurred to me and I asked Jihan a question.
“But you kept stopping earlier. Was it because of your charm skill?”
“huh.”
“What exactly is that skill?”
If you eat Jirgis’ horn, that skill will now be yours.
I would find out soon anyway, but I wanted to know the skill effect in advance.
Seo Ji-han, who knows the details of research on Kyrgyzstan, could tell you in detail.
“Oh, that? “That’s….”
Seo Ji-han, who was starting to speak calmly, suddenly stiffened.
What is it?
There are a lot of horns I have to eat in the future, so if this skill is not that good, I want to put it off and eat it.
Jirgis looks very weak, so I don’t care about the skills the horns will give me. I wasn’t really looking forward to it.
“Are you making me look like an ally? I guess it’s just a trick.”
“Similar… It’s a skill that causes hallucinations of beings that can never be attacked.”
“Do you think you can only change into someone within Jirgis’s field of vision? I see Seo Ji-han. What about Seo Ji-han?”
I thought it was an insignificant question, but Seo Ji-han suddenly stopped and blushed.
Then he stuttered and answered awkwardly.
“That’s it. In fact, that skill doesn’t only target people within the field of view…”
Huh? But why did I see Seo Ji-han and not my mother? Am I really capable of attacking my mother?
While I was in shock, Seo Ji-han, red water rising to the tips of his ears, spoke cautiously.
“The person who is deluded is shown a hallucination of the person they think could be here.”
Ah, so that’s why I couldn’t see my mom. Because I thought there was no way my mom was in the dungeon?
You were surprised for a moment because you thought you had become an unfilial child.
No, wait a minute.
I suddenly felt ominous.
Before I realized the reason, Seo Ji-han opened his mouth.
“In other words, out of all the people who could be here, he seems to be the person you like the most…”
Seo Ji-han couldn’t finish his sentence.
My eyes widened. I’m sure my mouth was also open in the same way.
Now, wait a minute, why is the conclusion like that?
Is that real?
So, to understand the situation.
The person I see when I’m caught by Jirgis’s charm skill = the person I like the most. The person
I see when I’m caught by the charm skill = Seo Ji-han.
What I just said = I saw Seo Ji-han.
I saw Seo Ji-han = I like Seo Ji-han the best.
Ah. Ugh. Eh. Ugh. Ah.
Ahhh.
I barely suppressed the screams in my head and hugged my face.
My heart was pounding like crazy, as if I had been hit by surprise. I cried.
An inexplicable heat gathered in my face.
Why, why did I do that? Why did I say that I could see Seo Ji-han?
But I couldn’t just stay like that forever.
This is the dungeon where the boss monster died. If I don’t get out quickly, I’ll end up in the entire dungeon. “ Hmm,
I don’t hate Seo Ji-han. I’ve always been indebted to him, and he’s someone I depend on in many ways. Is there any reason not to like someone like that? Please continue to treat me well.”
I muttered, trying to act calm.
That’s right, I didn’t mean it in a strange way, but in the human sense that I like it
. It’s
so embarrassing. It’s really embarrassing to tell someone you like them.
“Ugh.”
Seo Ji-han said softly, still with a red face. I nodded.
Stop being shy. I feel like I’m dying too.
“Anyway, let’s go out first.”
Before turning into a flea, I wrapped Seo Ji-han in the wide coat that I had brought.
Even if I turned into a flea, the materialized Seo Ji-han did not get smaller, so I had to hide him.
And the moment I wrapped the clothes around Seo Ji-han, he was in my arms. This small confession:
“I saw you.”
My mind exploded again.
