I Stole the Number One Ranker’s Soul - Chapter 142

Episode 143

〈What do you think, Professor Park?〉

〈I think it’s worth believing.〉

〈Do you have any basis for that thought?〉

The screen showed a large close-up of Professor Park’s frustrated face.

After waiting for a while, the camera caught the host again.

‘You are saying that there is no special basis. “Okay,”

I sighed. It was a blatant play.

Although it seemed like a discussion at first glance, the two professors were merely actors playing designated roles.

There is no way that a person with the title ‘Professor’ would have no logic to his opinions.

In the end, Professor Park was a device that made Professor Kim’s argument seem more logical.

Thanks to Professor Park’s lack of logic, all of Professor Kim’s claims and evidence sound very reasonable.

He hit the player in advance.

In preparation for disseminating that information to the public, we created the logic that ‘this is fake information made up by terrorists as a justification to close the dungeon.’

I took out my phone and looked up the live reaction of the broadcast, and as expected, there were a lot of sarcastic people.

– -You’re making excuses by saying you’re doing it because you want to monopolize the dungeon lol

-The excuses were made up without much sincerity

-There are a lot of people who die because they have a hard time with money, so can I rob a bank too?

L-Seoji Korean-style logic haha

– Professor Park is really pathetic. Doesn’t anyone believe that?

It was already anticipated that the information delivered over there could be delivered to the public in a bad form.

And now that I’ve seen this reaction a few times, I’ve become used to it.

I forced my eyes to swallow the grain-like rice and turned my attention to the video.

“Now the only dungeon left in Korea is the Nafgis Dungeon.”

After hearing the host’s words, someone other than the two professors came forward.

The introductory subtitle, Dungeon Management Office Security Division Chief, played below.

< yes. All three major guilds are working together to protect the dungeon.〉 〈You are also patrolling the inside of the dungeon?〉 〈Yes.〉 〈If the Nafgis Dungeon is closed, will Korea become a 'dungeon-free country'?〉 〈Not really. There is still a sea dungeon in Dokdo. It was recently opened, but it is currently occupied by terrorists, so it is not easy to access.〉 〈Why are the terrorists not closing that dungeon?〉 〈It is difficult to attack, so the boss monster has not been caught yet. I am guessing that they are doing so.〉 The Dokdo maritime dungeon is still protected by my sanctuary barrier. Fortunately, there were no major problems as no hunters with barrier removal skills had yet appeared. Even if the barrier was lifted, Yu Eundam, who was staying there, decided to contact me first. Just in case, hunters do not break through the barrier without my knowledge and harm Elfanis. “They guessed and came to conclusions among themselves and went crazy. yes?" Ban Seo-jin, who was staring at the screen in a crooked posture, closed the laptop with a loud sound. The chair was reclined at such an angle that it was surprising that it didn't fall over, so it was scary for everyone watching. Oh, by the way, it won't fall because it will be supported by telekinesis. “Well, it’s positive to hear that there’s interest from overseas as well.” “Positive?” “But wouldn’t there be someone who would think that the dungeon is being closed because something is really going on? The broadcast claims that Seo Ji-han is a bad guy and is closing all the dungeons, but if you think about it carefully, you should feel strange that he only closes his own dungeons. If you're a real terrorist, you should raid all over the world's dungeons, so why close your own country's dungeons? “Aren’t you thinking too positively?” “But there might be at least one person.” “Well, that could be the case. by the way. One person who does nothing? “What’s the difference between not having it and not having it?” “That’s…” “Well, no, that’s okay. That’s not what I want to say.” "yes?" Was there something he wanted to say? Seeing my puzzled gaze, Ban Seo-jin sat close to the table. He put his clasped hands on the table and opened his mouth with a serious expression. “I kept watching the news, and suddenly I got a little curious.” "yes?" “How strong are you?” "hmm >.”

“I thought it would be like that when they said the two of us were going around bossing around, but if you think about it, it’s really amazing.”

Ban Seo-jin came out with excited eyes and stared at Ji-han in turns.

It seemed like a spark of victory was burning in his eyes, which sent a shiver down my spine. When I

told him before that I was going to close the dungeon, he said he wanted to fight for several days.

That’s what happened . Is this the second coming?

I hate it, I hate it. Why do I have to spar with my allies when I’m busy closing the dungeon?

“Hey, Mr. Ban Seo-jin. I told you last time, but I kind of hate fighting.”

“I’m not asking you to fight, I’m just asking you to show off your power by throwing a punch. I’m not the type of person to keep being lazy like that.”

You’re already soggy.

Instead of answering, I scooped up a large spoonful of the leftover rice and muttered.

How can I avoid this?

Judging from his attitude, it seemed like he had made up his mind.

“If you’re that curious, I’ll show you.”

Unexpectedly, Seo Ji-han, who was next to me, came forward and said,

“It’s okay if I collect them, right? It’s not a bad idea to show them at least once.”

Seo Ji-han, who received my worried gaze, smiled.

I swallowed my food and answered with a sigh.

“As long as it’s okay, Seo Ji-han.”

“Any problems. I’ll show. “How strong is it?”

“Oh really? Then, I’ll find a vacant lot near here. “I’m eating!”

Ban Seo-jin was so excited that he was about to kick out the door. I quickly caught her.

“Wait!”

“why?”

“If you make a fuss while using attack skills here, you might get caught. Nearby residents can also report it. “First of all, we are living in hiding.”

“Oh, that’s right. hmm. Should we look for a deserted island somewhere?”

“no. “There is a suitable place.”

I immediately threw the remaining rice into my mouth and got up.

And opened the gate leading to the dungeon.

“Is this… a dungeon gate?”

Ban Seo-jin came close to me, with stars pouring out of his eyes and spitting rainbows out of his mouth.

She knew that I had a dungeon, but she couldn’t hide her curious expression, as if she didn’t know that the dungeon gate could be opened in this way.

“yes. “Go in.”

Ban Seo-jin, who had been looking at the front, back, and sides of the gate, quickly entered.

After that, Seo Ji-han and I entered the gate.

“So you came back soon?”

Elfanis, who was walking somewhere carrying a colander full of dried plants, welcomed me with a curious expression.

Next to him was Pergis, who was mumbling something.

Perhaps their relationship had improved considerably in a short period of time, but Fergis had somehow abandoned the dignity of being a boss monster and behaved as calm as a livestock.

It appears that he was helping Boniel Panis with his pastime with the luggage basket hanging around his neck.

“Wow, isn’t this the boss monster Pergis? And what is this? castle? ruins?”

Ban Seo-jin, who had been looking around frantically since entering the dungeon, suddenly spotted Lordran approaching towards Elfanis.

Then he looked back at me with a sinister smile.

“What skills do you have? “Are you this?”

Ban Seo-jin straightens her little finger and gently waves it.

For a moment, I couldn’t understand what he was saying, but no, this person is real!

Seo Ji-han’s expression was seen to deteriorate rapidly when he saw Ban Seo-jin.

“It’s not like that! He was the original owner of this dungeon. “We are working together now.”

Ah, it’s hard to control my facial expression.

Fortunately, Rodran and Elfanis stood still with docile expressions, as if they didn’t know what Seojin Ban’s little finger meant.

“You are a lively person. I am Elfanis, and this is Lordran, a knight like my grandson. Are you a companion of the king?”

“Oh, that’s right. “Are you his henchman?”

“A subject!”

“It’s either that or that.”

Although Ban Seo-jin was surprised by his bold choice of words, Elfanis only laughed.

Rodran was smiling bitterly, and Fergis seemed so offended that he dropped the colander he was wearing around his neck on the ground.

“Anyway, see you soon. “Isn’t it going to be resolved soon?”

That is correct.

“Mr. Elfanis, is there a vacant lot nearby? “I want to test my skill power.”

“Ah, if that’s the case, there’s a suitable place. “There are only vacant lots left here.”

Elfanis answered willingly.

“Please come here.”

Elfanis led us to the back of the castle. As I followed, I saw a rocky mountain rising above the forest.

Elfanis smiled softly, pointing to the mountain.

“This is the quarry where stones were collected when building this city, but as you can see, it is just a rocky mountain and there are no items to collect. So feel free to use your skills on that rocky mountain.”

“Are you really okay?”

“sure. It doesn’t matter if all the rocks break. Broken stones can be brought in, cleaned, and used for city repair work, so it’s like killing two birds with one stone.”

Having said that, I decided not to decline.

When I glanced at Seo Ji-han, he nodded and stepped forward.

“Then take a good look.”

After looking back at Ban Seo-jin and me for a moment, Seo Ji-han took out the Reaper’s scythe and took a stance.

A pitch-black energy burst out and flowed through his entire body.

Even though I was only looking at the back, I felt an eerie feeling as if there was a knife in my throat.

Other people seemed to feel the same way, including Elfanis Pergis Rodran and the always relaxed Ban Seo-jin, who seemed to be very nervous.

The black energy that wavered like a flame slowly gathered into the scythe.

The moment the rogue energy rising from the scythe reached its peak, Seo Ji-han quickly swung his weapon.

A huge half-moon shaped shadow protruded from the scythe and rushed towards the rocky mountain.

The sound of air being torn apart followed. And with a crunching sound, the rocky mountain split vertically.

Grumble.

Big and small stones from the rocky mountain rolled down the mountain as if surprised. The mountain was naturally split with a canyon in between, as if it had originally been two mountains.

“This much?”

While everyone was admiring, Seo Ji-han looked back and nodded.
