I Stole the Number One Ranker’s Soul - Chapter 93

Episode 094

Two people were walking slowly from the direction of the castle wall on the path we were standing on.

One was wearing a loose toga that looked like something one would wear in ancient Greece, and the other was wearing thick plate armor and following politely behind.

“Could it be another hunter?”

When I whispered softly, Eundam Yoo furrowed his forehead with a puzzled look on his face.

Then he checked his watch and shook his head.

“There’s no way it’s already here. “I don’t think so.”

Well, if they had really come, they would have flocked in droves and would not have visited by just the two of them.

Plus, those clothes.

It’s so heterogeneous.

From head to toe, they were all dressed in eccentric outfits, as if they had stepped out of a movie.

If so, no way.

I remembered the message that had occurred to me earlier.

“Nioh Elfanis…”

Yoo Ndam’s eyes narrowed at my words.

He seemed to be guessing in the same direction as me.

“You definitely said it was Nioh, right? In the message.”

“that’s right.”

“Then there is a high possibility that it is a monster.”

Even as we were talking, the two of us were continuing to close the distance between us. There’s a

high possibility that it’s a monster, especially a boss monster, so we need to be on guard, but since it looks like a human and doesn’t show any aggressive intentions, I’m reluctant to attack preemptively. And finally, let’s talk

. As we got close enough to share, I felt even more uncomfortable.

“He’s an old man. The person behind him seems to be about my grandson’s age.”

The man I saw up close was an old man with long, faded blond hair tied roughly at the nape of his neck. It

seemed highly likely that he was Nioh Elfanis.

And at first glance, he looked like a typical Westerner with blue eyes and blond hair.

It was as if he was a saint . He was smiling kindly and meekly, so I unconsciously bowed my head and said hello.

Then, the driver who was watching us behind the old man flinched and bowed his head to greet me.

– Why are you greeting me?

“No, I didn’t know. … You’re so old….”

Seo Ji-han looked at me as if I was bewildered, but eventually made an expression that there was nothing he could do.

– Luckily, it seems like there’s someone similar to you over there.

“You have a bright and nice personality.”

Anyway, thanks to the driver who greeted me face to face, my impression of the two people improved a bit.

The expression on his face when he looked at me became a little softer, as did the old man.

There is no harm in saying hello wherever you go.

Still, we were still activating our skills so that we could fight at any time.

The horn above my head was shining with magical power so brilliantly that it was blinding.

I was in a state where I could use Chungwangpo as soon as I wanted to.

However, I hope that I will never have to use my skills on that old man.

Is this a real boss monster?

really?

Should I kill that old man?

The old man looked around at us quietly, perhaps knowing my complicated feelings or not, and nodded.

And as his eyes seemed to linger on the horns above my head for a long time, he looked at me and said something.

“-?”

It would have been nice if it had been English, but the old man’s language was so unfamiliar that it was difficult to catch it by ear.

It sounds a bit like Chinese or a bit like French, but I’m not sure.

“What are you saying? “I have no idea.”

Eundam Yoo lowered his head and quietly whispered.

“me too. “Ah, will the communication course be helpful?”

“I do not know. “I think it probably won’t work.”

“Well, even if I give it to you, there’s no guarantee that you’ll eat it.”

I couldn’t do this or that and just kept talking, but the old man who was talking to me looked back at the driver in a bit of annoyance and said something.

The driver raised his voice slightly as if he was objecting.

After arguing for a while, the two people seemed to have finally decided to follow the old man’s opinion.

As the old man stepped forward, the driver was looking at him with a nervous expression.

Her face had not yet lost her breast fat, but perhaps because of her armor, her body felt large enough to be compared to that of Ban Seo-hu.

“-”

The old man who gestured towards us turned and pointed to the completely collapsed castle. He gestured

a few more times and slowly began to walk ahead. He looked around every now and then

to see if we were following, then paused and waited.

“I think he wants us to follow him. …”

I glanced at Seo Ji-han, and he had his eyebrows drawn together with a confused look on his face.

Instead, Yoo Eundam answered my question.

“It’s absurd. “This isn’t the type of monster that can possess people, right?”

A monster that possesses people? Is there such a thing?

– I think I’m talking about a siren or a spirit monster. I heard that they often appear in fish king type dungeons, but they usually look like an attractive member of the opposite sex.

Ah, there really is such a thing.

“You mean something like a siren or something? According to Seo Ji-han, he is usually seen as an attractive person of the opposite sex.”

Hearing what I said, Yoo Eundam looked at me and spoke cautiously.

“Everyone has different tastes. “Well, isn’t it the opposite sex?”

Clearly, both the old man and the knight are men.

But it was definitely not my taste.

I responded quickly to avoid any misunderstanding.

“First of all, I am not tempted by my grandfather. No way, Hunter Yoo Eundam….”

“Me neither.”

We naturally looked at the one remaining person.

I don’t know if he heard the conversation or not, but Ban Seo-hu has a grave face.

Well, he has credibility

. Isn’t he the strangest person here? The person who tries to turn his friend into a shield.

“Tsk.”

Seohu Ban glanced at us, clicked his tongue, and walked ahead at a fast pace.

His skill was still activated and he could block an attack at any time.

“Stay behind and follow me.”

Yoo Eundam and I started walking behind him in a daze.

In fact, I still couldn’t figure out where to go as I walked.

The horns on my head were still shining brightly. Should

I get rid of them

or should I still look at the situation?

– Maintain my skills

. Seeing the conflicted expression, Seo Ji-han quietly gave advice.

Yes, I don’t want to get into a vicious fight with three young people against my grandfather, but I still don’t know what kind of person he is, so I need to be careful.

And I don’t know if he’s really betraying us.

I glanced at Ban Seo-hu’s back.

Yoo Eun-dam quietly whispered to me,

“Should we attack now? Since our backs are showing, if we attack first, I think we can take them down right away. That doesn’t make any sense.”

The fact that the other person is an old man doesn’t seem to be any limitation to Yoo Eun-dam.

I was a little shocked and quickly said,

“But the old man looks really tired, so maybe that’s a bit harsh.”

“Maybe that’s how he transformed.”

That’s what I heard.

First of all, I decided to stop Eundam Yoo.

Honestly, if there was a real need to attack, Seo Ji-han would have said so.

In these matters, I trust Seo Ji-han’s advice more than Yu Eun-dam’s judgment.

Moreover, Yoo Eundam almost died because he didn’t expect Vargis to turn into a wasp during the Vargis boss fight.

Hmm, I think it’s a bit careless.

We walked quietly down the path, following the old man.

Sometimes he looks back and smiles, so I smiled in an ambiguous way, but I’m not sure if I did it right.

And when we finally got close to the castle wall, we saw a huge gate that was half destroyed, as if it had been in a great battle.

The thick iron door was torn and broken, as if a hole had been made in paper.

“This is…”

We were speechless for a moment at what we saw after passing the castle wall and entering the inside.

Even Ban Seo-hu, who had been walking calmly, seemed to flinch.

A scene that could only be described as horrendous unfolded. It was

like an ancient castle . It was a sight as if the prosperous city of Rome had been bombed with missiles.

Broken roofs were blocking the streets like trash, and there were more broken houses than intact ones. The

sparsely visible intact buildings gave us an idea of how glorious this city once was. “ What

happened?”

I spoke quietly, but no one answered.

I smashed the fountain and found a huge stone statue lying down. It

was so majestic that its face was four times the size of my body.

The statue decorated with gold here and there was an old man walking in front of it. It seemed to resemble the face of a man.

Stepping on floor tiles of a beautiful color like jewels, we continued walking into the city.

Finally, in front of a building in the innermost part of the city that looked like a castle, the old man looked back at us

and smiled kindly . I went inside.

– Let’s follow him in.

This castle was almost the only intact building in the city.

In fact, I was a little reluctant to go in because I thought there might be a trap prepared inside, but I decided to trust Seo Ji-han’s words.

Well, before that, I was already halfway there . Seohu walked in ahead of us, but

when we went inside, there was a white teacup and kettle on a very pretty table.

The old man was busy moving around, but when he saw us coming in, he smiled brightly and offered us a seat. After we

sat down, without realizing it, hot water was poured into the kettle. He poured the tea and poured a cup in front of each of them.

It was rose tea with a beautiful red color, and the scent was very sweet and refreshing.

“We’re in here to conquer the dungeon, right?”

As I was smelling the tea in a temple-like building that seemed to be found in every travel destination, I couldn’t tell whether I was at a hot cafe or a dungeon. I think I should at least take a photo to prove it. To my words, Eundam Yoo only shrugged his shoulders. It’s a dungeon

so

far

. All I could think of was Chungwangryu giggling, but being served tea in such a pretty building makes me feel like I’m somehow possessed.

Wait, aren’t you really possessed?

And what is this natural flow? Isn’t the tea poisoned?

Why are we all of a sudden ? Has it become a situation where you drink tea?
