I Stole the Number One Ranker’s Soul - Chapter 33
Episode 033
I was shocked by the absurd sound.
“No way.”
– Didn’t this battle give you some confidence?
“It can’t be. “I saw you shaking earlier.”
Seo Ji-han suddenly became quiet.
After glancing at his sunken face as if he was thinking about something, I opened my mouth as if making an excuse.
“I was lucky this time.”
– You got lucky?
“of course. The bear was caught off guard, so I still caught it. Didn’t you see it earlier? “When I hit the ground, everyone was rolling around, not even able to stand?”
– Uhm.
“If he kept doing that over and over again, I wouldn’t even be able to stand properly. Even if you use the skill in that state, there is a high possibility that it will miss. Plus, that guy’s movements were really fast. “It would have been difficult to deal with him if he had started pounding the ground and then immediately jumped up and attacked me.”
– okay? Go ahead.
Seo Ji-han, with a slightly happy face perhaps due to his mood, answered with shining eyes.
Why are you so excited again?
Oh, I see you’re talking about battle.
Anyway, this person is crazy about fighting….
I refrained from clicking my tongue and decided to tell Seo Ji-han as much about the fight as he wanted.
“Plus, it’s difficult to aim because you shoot with your head, not your hands. It was really lucky that no one got hurt this time. And even though I couldn’t control my strength, I don’t think it’s a skill I can use often. “They knew about it and ran away, but then they came back in droves.”
– Yeah, so?
Seo Ji-han was smiling slightly.
Are fight stories that good?
His true nature is a combat hunter.
“It’s good for attacking a single powerful entity like that B-class monster, but if dozens of them spread out and attack me, and I sacrifice one or two and then attack the rest, I’ll never be able to win.”
– Chungwangpo alone is the same.
“They knew that too and ran away and came back. As a result, they all died in this thunderstorm.”
– Isn’t that enough? As long as there is a thunderstorm, there is nothing to be afraid of wherever you go.
Seo Ji-han spoke calmly.
“It’s okay. All the dead monsters here are F-class and E-class monsters. They say that they can’t see Class B and even if they are Class C, they get hit and run away slightly injured. Thunderstorm doesn’t work on Class B. Chungwang Cannon works, but I’m not confident that it will hit them if they dodge with determination. “If you aim with your forehead, you’ll end up like a human top.”
Those wolves, which are E-class monsters, were that fast, but I don’t even want to imagine how fast a B-class monster would be if it moved properly.
As far as I can see, ‘Oh, I was here! No, when did you go there! Is it this way? Isn’t it! You will have a hard time aiming the Chungwang cannon while making repeated noises like ‘Stay still for a moment!’
There is no way Seo Ji-han, an experienced combat hunter, would not know this fact that I also noticed for a moment.
I feel like I was guided by something.
Feeling strange, I raised my head and saw a happy-looking man smiling as if he was about to clap, as if asking me to do more.
No, don’t be proud.
“Hey, Seo Ji-han. Now…”
I feel like I’ve been teased for some reason.
I opened my mouth to say something, but he was quick to cut me off.
– To be honest, I was a bit surprised.
“What is it?”
I responded with a slight pout, and he smiled brightly.
– I didn’t know you could analyze it that much. As you said, this is your first battle.
“Cowards are cautious.”
– Usually, after a successful debut match like this, there are many hunters who get puffed up and become reckless. Not only did I break the joint of a chrysanthemum by hitting it from the side before, but my basic fighting sense is not bad. Oh, what? Why are you complimenting me all of a sudden? Such a
direct
compliment
. When I heard that, my face started to tingle.
Even without looking, it was clear that my cheekiness was rising.
This is so embarrassing.
The number one ranking in the combat world told me that my fighting sense is not bad.
“Was it successful?”
In the end, hehe, he failed to control his smiling face and asked with great excitement.
– This is incredible. You killed a B-class monster with one hit. It’s definitely rare.
Seo Ji-han nodded calmly.
And he didn’t stop there, he opened his mouth again. Opened.
– The fact that he has both powerful single attack and wide-area attack skills makes him one of the best skill combinations among magical combat hunters. It feels good to keep getting compliments, but he just calmly says, ‘I’m so strong.
‘ I couldn’t just be like, ‘Hahaha’.
To put it bluntly, it’s not that there aren’t drawbacks.
“But the problem is that at most you’ll get exhausted if you use it twice. Can I do this in actual combat? I’ll attack twice and then take a break because I’m having a hard time. I can do it like this. Will?”
It was a serious worry, but Seo Ji-han shrugged his shoulders as if it was no big deal.
– Well, I just need the help of items.
“Hmm. Still, I admit that the skill combination is good. The reason I, who is almost a complete stranger to combat, was this active is because I have good skills.”
– That’s good. The reason he shows this level of power even though his magic power is so low is because his skill level is so high. Again, the combination is good. As far as I know, the only one who has both of these high-level wide-area single magic skills is Eundam Yoo. There may be more overseas, but I don’t know much about overseas hunters.
“Yoo Eun-dam? I’ve heard a lot about it somewhere.”
– Ranked 3rd in the combat world. A bit immature, but not a bad guy. He also has good fighting sense.
I vaguely remembered a man from that description. He had a
pretty face like an idol and a lively and lively way of speaking. He had flashy
hair like a real celebrity. Even though he was a hunter because of his colors and attire, he had a personal fan club. He
often appeared on TV and was personally active as a streamer, so he was a well-known hunter.
It felt like he was standing at the exact opposite point from Seo Ji-han, who looked like a soldier. So,
it was a bit surprising that Seo Ji-han evaluated him favorably.
I don’t think it would be right.
“Are you close?”
– I know his face. We even fought together when he captured the evil spirit king Silaghis.
“It’s fascinating.”
– He’s a cute guy. He’s friendly and follows me around while being like his older brother.
“What about 2nd place in the rankings?”
I said this without much thought because I thought all the high-ranking members would be in a relationship, but Seo Ji-han’s face hardened. They were
n’t close.
“We don’t have a good relationship? Is his personality not so good? It’s okay if you don’t say anything.”
– No. His personality doesn’t match, but it’s neither good nor bad. No, honestly, he’s a bit on the bad side.
Looking at Seo Ji-han’s flustered face, I thought of the profile of the second ranked person.
Ban Seo-hu.
Nickname is the undefeated man.
Absorbs attacks . A hunter who can defend in a wide area and at the same time has the ability to self-regenerate and fights while constantly recovering based on his enormous stamina and magic abilities. He was not
called an undefeated man
because he was strong. It was theoretically impossible to beat Seohu Ban.
Seo Ji-han If this is a spear that can pierce anything, then Banseohu can be said to be an impenetrable shield.
“I guess so.”
– If you happen to get involved, stay as far away as possible. Because I have a very tired personality.
“Tired? Hmm, it looks like I’m fine on the outside.”
– It’s persistent and frustrating. Anyway, there’s nothing good about getting to know him.
It seems like he knows him very well.
I became a little interested in the relationship between him and Ban Seo-hu due to his intense reaction, which was clearly different from the one shown to Yoo Eun-dam.
“Did they ever fight?”
In response to my question, Seo Ji-han, who had been gossiping about Ban
Seo-hu, closed his mouth. Then, he rolled his eyes for a moment and opened his mouth as if he didn’t want to.
– I bumped into him a little, that leech. He’s the type of guy who turns away if he doesn’t get his way. I’m not the type of person who listens well to what others say.
Even when I hear that, I can’t easily imagine it.
Ban Seo-hu was a huge man.
If Seo Ji-han brings to mind the agile feeling of a tiger or a black panther, Ban Seo-hu is everywhere just by appearing. He is a black bear-like man who overwhelms everyone.
A person like that is yelling at Seo Ji-han and saying, ‘Do as I tell you!’? I
can’t believe it.
Anyway, I think the story about Ban Seo-hu should end here.
Seo Ji-han As I was getting more and more excited, I changed the topic.
“By the way, I can’t believe that the rankings from 1st to 3rd are all Korean. The 4th to 3rd place are American. But only the top 10 are displayed, and three of them are Korean….”
I was surprised and impressed, but Seo Ji-han’s reaction was that it was something new.
He answered harshly.
– That ranking was almost determined when we conquered the demon king Silagis. The Korean strategy team captured everything, including bosses and general-level monsters. Well, if you succeed in conquering the boss in other countries, your ranking will change.
“I see.”
I gave a cursory reply and continued rooting monsters.
It seems that this tedious rooting task is slowly coming to an end.
When I finally finished rooting the last monster and straightened my back, dense trees everywhere caught my eye.
Come to think of it, these are also things that can be collected.
“What are these trees?”
– this? As far as I know, it’s a healing potion ingredient.
I was about to go home, but stopped when I heard that.
Hey healing potion?
“Isn’t it expensive?”
– I heard that leaves are used as a healing potion ingredient. If you look at this many things, it shouldn’t be that expensive. Nuclear weapons may be quite expensive, though.
After hearing that, I couldn’t leave.
All these trees looked like lumps of money.
I carefully used my gathering skills to gather a tree.
Obtain Garnid’s Core (Grade: S)x1 Obtain
Garnid’s Log (Grade: A)x258 Obtain
Garnid’s Leaf (Grade: A)x3265 Obtain
Garnid’s Root (Grade: A)x22
Garnid’s Sap (Grade: : Obtain A)x26
Garnid’s Bark (Grade: A)x56 Obtain
It doesn’t matter what you give.
I took a deep breath and started collecting again.
In the end, it was well into the night when I left the dungeon.
