I Stole the Number One Ranker’s Soul - Chapter 146
Episode 147
“Isn’t it a little big?”
Jihan smiled lightly and said as I looked at me with wide eyes and shock.
Is it ‘a bit’ big? Did you just say ‘kinda’? Did you say that Seo Ji-han doesn’t eat ‘a bit’? yes?
“…It’s not that big of a deal.”
It’s really big. It’s scary big.
While Kergis and Geogis’ horns were about the size of a mid-sized car, Nafgis’s was almost as big as a tour bus.
“But isn’t it the prettiest crown I’ve ever seen? I’m sure it will look good on your hair too.”
Seo Ji-han smiled slightly, but I wasn’t in the mood to laugh at all.
Yes, it’s pretty….
Yes. It’s a pretty halo-shaped crown that looks like a Bible or ancient art piece.
But it’s still too big!
“Um, should I wake you up and talk to you?”
He looked at me and opened his mouth again.
I got off his arms and took a deep breath. Let’s prepare our hearts.
“great. Still, I like that it looks like we can understand something.”
“Because it looks less sloppy?”
“yes.”
The monsters I saw on the way up looked like a stone on the side of the road that suddenly got motivated to live and started walking around.
Nafgis looked as if it had at least been touched by human hands.
“If I didn’t know it was a dungeon boss, I would have thought it was an ancient relic statue found in temples everywhere.”
A stone statue sitting cross-legged upright in the center of a sculpture resembling the pillars of an ancient temple. That was Nafgis.
Honestly, even though I was looking at it, I couldn’t understand the fact that it was going to move and fight soon.
Do you think the stone dust will fall and break?
“It looks nice.”
“Really.”
A helmet with wings engraved on its head.
Armor decorated with a pattern that resembles an expanding light. A
huge sword held in one hand was placed calmly on the legs of the lotus position. With
both hands lightly placed on the blade of the sword, the huge sword gave off a calm atmosphere. The statue was really cool.
Although you couldn’t see it because of the helmet that covered its entire face, it seemed like it was probably meditating with its eyes closed. “
When I first saw it, I thought it was some kind of decoration, but when I got closer, it suddenly got up and attacked.”
“It certainly looks more suited to being in a Greek temple or something, rather than a dungeon like this.”
“Shall we take a commemorative photo?”
I thought it was a joke, but Seo Ji-han really made a gentle gesture and called me.
He didn’t have a cell phone, so he wanted me to take a picture with my cell phone.
“Eh, I don’t know. Let’s take a picture!”
There was nothing to be gained by worrying and being serious anyway.
I put everything down and took a picture with Seo Ji-han.
These are all memories!
Floating islands in the distance, a background that looks like the ruins of a huge temple, and even the wonderful Nafgis.
Wow, if you look at the pictures, it’s just a tourist attraction. Yes.
Haha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha
. “Then… it’s time to really get started now.”
When I muttered solemnly, Seo Ji-han smiled and lightly shrugged his shoulders.
“Don’t stress too much. You brought the chain, right?”
“yes.”
I took out the blockade chains I had prepared from my inventory and handed them to Seo Ji-han.
Until now, Seo Ji-han had subdued the monster by pointing a sickle at its neck and talked to it, but this time, I plan to do it a little differently.
First of all, Nafgis, the Colossus King, is so big that it would be difficult to use that method, and besides, talking to him while pointing a weapon like that would only bring about negative emotions in many ways.
“I tried to get as much as I could, but there wasn’t much.”
It may not be a good idea to tie someone up with chains and have a conversation with them, but at least it’s better than holding a knife to their throat and talking to them.
But is it really possible to subdue that big monster with something like this?
“Let’s see, most of them are steel chains of blockade. Oh, there are some gold chains and some silver chains… The platinum chain of blockade? “How did you get this?”
Seo Ji-han raised his head in surprise.
“I said I was looking for a chain, and Ndam gave me one.”
“okay? “You rarely do something helpful.”
“Hmm, but are low-grade items like the blockade steel chain really okay?”
The opponent is a boss monster.
The platinum chain of blockade was a grade A item, but the steel chain was a grade D item.
Even with a magic level of Yu Eundam’s level, the tied party could have broken the D class.
Are such D-class items really useful against boss monsters?
“are you okay. I’ve taken it down a few times before. “Even if that guy suddenly appeared during the attack, I couldn’t kill him, so I just tied him up and ran away.”
“Is this enough quantity? “I didn’t know how much I needed to prepare, so I tried to get as much as I could.”
“that’s enough. great job. “Now it’s my turn to work.”
Seo Ji-han answered, carefully collecting the chains and putting them in his inventory, only holding a few strands in his hand.
He then winked at me to open a sanctuary barrier to protect himself and then turned towards the boss monster.
In one hand, the Shinigami’s scythe. In the other hand, a three-strand chain of blockade.
Every time he walked, there was a sound of chains dragging on the ground.
A clattering sound that sounds somewhat threatening.
As the distance from the boss monster decreased, the black energy rising from Seo Ji-han’s body became increasingly dense.
And finally Nafgis woke up.
The statue’s closed eyelids smoothly rolled up, revealing its brilliantly shining yellow eyes.
At the same time, a powerful presence spread throughout this area.
In the past, I often suffered from abnormal status when encountering boss monsters, but these days, I don’t think I’ve ever encountered such abnormal status.
If I think about it carefully, at some point I stopped feeling intimidated by boss monsters.
I think it’s just a bit big, but I didn’t feel the same overwhelming despair I felt when I first saw Kergis.
But even to me, Nafgis’ presence was impressive.
Nafgis slowly stood up and took a fighting stance toward Seojihan.
The huge stone sword, which looked like it could accommodate five people, began to blaze with deadly force.
“It’s about finding form.”
Seo Ji-han, who snorted at Nafgis, likewise grabbed the Shinigami’s scythe tightly and jumped in.
There was so much difference in size and so much difference in speed that it felt like watching a fight between a squirrel and a human.
Wow, Seo Ji-han is really agile.
And Nafgis….
Yes, that’s right. If it’s a rock, it’s hard to move quickly.
Just
like I expected, every time Nafgis moved, the stone joints made a grinding sound.
I’m so worried that I might need artificial joint surgery.
Because Seo Ji-han was moving so randomly that Nafgis was straining all the joints of his body to chase after him.
“Even if the sword is that big, it’s useless if it doesn’t hit.”
Every time Nafgis’ sword swung, a sword wind blew all the way to where I was.
However, Seo Ji-han just laughed calmly and tied up Nafgis.
Two huge legs were wrapped in chains.
When Nafgis bent down and tried to tear off the chain, Seo Ji-han jumped up onto his shoulder and wrapped the chain around his body again.
Next, his shoulders, arms, and torso were all tied up in chains.
Finally, Seojihan’s fierce kick landed on Nafgis, who was so tied up that he couldn’t even swing his sword properly. It was an absurd sight
,
almost like a squirrel kicking a person and knocking him over.
When Nafgis finally fell to the ground, there was a loud noise and a cloud of dust rose up.
“end. Are you ready to gather?”
Nafgis, who had fallen in chains, wriggled but was relatively calm.
“…He doesn’t have any skills? “I can’t believe I was tied up in vain like this, just waving my sword around.”
“Hmm, I don’t know. You said before that I was unique, right? “Not much has been revealed about what skills Nafgis has.”
“Everything about this dungeon is really mysterious. The stone I saw on the way here must have been a resident of this world, but how did it come into being? Stones wouldn’t have interbred with each other to reproduce…”
“Haha. That would be really strange. Anyway, you can come closer now. Shall we feed Sotong Yugwa?”
“please.”
I hurriedly approached Nafgis while Seo Ji-han was pushing a piece of sotong fruit fruit into the statue’s mouth.
Looking at it up close, it really looked like the statue was just lying down. It felt even more so because Nafgis was so calm.
“Are you eating?”
“It’s carved with its mouth closed. How do I feed it? Does the mouth open?”
After saying that, Seojihan pushed the sickle between Nafgis’ lips and twisted it. However, instead of opening the mouth, it only cut it off cleanly. “…I guess it doesn’t work.
”
“I see.”
The haggard mood suddenly descended. The word ‘give up’ clearly appeared in my mind and I began to dance.
I tried to shake off the thought.
“But let’s give it a try!”
“That’s right!”
This time, I prepared a lot.
When I think about it, it was a bit weird to go empty-handed when proposing peace. The
basis of cultural exchange is a gift!
I took out the items I had prepared from my inventory.
List of items I took out. Seo Ji-han, who saw them, picked them up with a puzzled expression.
“Books? Did you bring books too?”
“Yes. I didn’t think I would be able to read it, but I didn’t know what he liked, so I decided to prepare everything.”
“100 reasons why we should become friends. Peace edition? Is there a book like this?”
“It was there.”
“What’s better than fighting? A song of friendship? This is sheet music.”
Seo Ji-han, who was looking at various things from the gift list, looked at me with astonishment.
Oh, I know. I know.
But maybe he might like that. Mr. Elfanis also really likes frozen dumplings!
“Korean beef set .” Hanwa set… Did you bring all the holiday gift sets?”
“Ahaha. It was the most popular product in the shopping mall…”
“And what are these stones?”
Seo Ji-han this time picked up the strange-looking stones that were gathered in a huddle to one side.
“Senior.”
“…top?”
“When I heard that the monsters here were called stones, it suddenly came to mind. “I thought you might like a pretty chief…”
“Beauty world?”
“It’s Miseokgye.”
Seo Ji-han, holding the stone in his hand, looked at me silently.
As I was receiving the silent gaze, I felt uncomfortable even though I had done nothing wrong. “
…Hehe. Okay. Anyway, let’s try to persuade him with this. Since we can’t communicate through words, we can at least use things.” “I can only hope that it does.”
Seo Ji-han, with a somewhat detached expression, sighed,
and held the stone in his hand in front of Nafgis and showed it to him.
