Insanely-Talented Player - Chapter 150
Episode 150
“Lord of heroes who cannot be the king of heroes.”
King of Heroes player Kang Yu-seong mocked. He spoke the ‘true name’ of the Clown Lord facing him.
Lord of heroes.
The clown monarch, who was supposed to giggle and twist his body exaggeratedly like a slapstick actor, stopped laughing.
The clown monarch, who had stopped laughing in the silence, stood still in a strangely bent upper body position. Without lifting a finger or even making a single movement. It was just ominous silence after silence.
Hee hee hee hee.
After the silence, laughter rang out again.
It was such a bizarre sound that it was hard to tell whether it should be called laughter or crying, convulsing like a crazy person.
After much laughter and laughter, the clown lord raised his twisted and bent body.
He was wearing the mask of the Laughing Clown, wearing a dark-colored business suit, and holding a winter night sword.
“Yes, child. Lord of Heroes… There was a time when I called myself that.”]
Beyond the smiling clown’s mask, the Jester Lord finally revealed his true name. At the same time, the sword of winter night in his hand began to spread a bitter cold air.
The first hero who willingly sacrifices himself to protect the world and repeats the same thing endlessly.
The Transcendent called himself the Tomb of Heroes. It was as he said.
‘Would you like me to tell you a funny joke?’
‘The first hero, the Lord of Heroes… As soon as he entered the tier 1 tower, he got his head blown off by an orc and died! Before we could conquer one tower, as many as three people fell and had to start over!’
‘Fifty people died in season 2, 100 people in season 3, and 180 people died in season 4… It was really endless. ‘
A destination that will be reached endlessly whenever the King of Heroes is defeated and falls. Tombs of heroes.
The crystallization of an endless collection of fallen, defeated, and broken heroes.
A transcendent built from the remains of broken heroes.
That was the identity of the Lord of Heroes and the Overlord of Fools.
[“But you are just a shadow cast by me.”]
And like the shadow imitators imitating shooting stars, the shooting stars here were also just shadows cast by the ‘real’ thing.
“The hero’s imitator is nothing more than a shadow of lies that will eventually come back as a part of me.”] The
thousandth hero, the thousandth imitator, repeating the same thing endlessly.
“The fake one is a hundred times better than the real one, where you have no choice but to suck your fingers and watch the shadows play.”
Nevertheless, Yooseong smiled regardless. The Clown Lord also laughed.
“Kid, do you want to be a hero?”]
After laughing, he asked back.
“Are you asking that?”
Yooseong answered without any hesitation.
“I promised that I would be willing to be the subject of laughter and ridicule from the world and not be understood by everyone for the rest of my life.”
And Yoosung knew Yoosung. You can fool others, but you can never fool yourself.
“You people who failed to become heroes and were defeated and broken.] Just as I hoped that would be the case.”
The King of Heroes spoke to those who were endlessly broken, defeated, and fallen.
“Heroes are the clowns of the world.”]
And the clown monarch, the tomb of endlessly broken, defeated and fallen heroes, answered.
“You might think I’m hiding my real name. But you’re wrong. Rather, this is ‘our real name.’”]
[The Clown Lord continues humorously.]
“We are the clowns of the world and the funny jokes of history.”]
“Really? Then there will be nothing to worry about even if I become a real hero. After all, we are all clowns. “Isn’t that so, King of Jesters?”
Yoosung responded coldly to those words. At those words, the clown monarch bent and twisted his body again and burst into laughter.
After laughing, he got up again.
When he took off the “Laughing Clown” mask he was wearing, another clown mask was revealed underneath.
However, the corner of his mouth, which should have been torn, was not torn. There are simply two drops of black ink drawn in the shape of water droplets along the cheek.
It was the mask of Pierrot.
[“…Maybe so.”]
said the man wearing the clown mask. Those were his last words.
And even as the entire landscape was engulfed in darkness and moving away, the clown monarch’s laughter, which should have resonated as usual, could not be heard.
Defeated the Mecha Heavenly Demon at the Tier 13 Hard Sword Tower.
“Receiving lump sum compensation.”
And after conquering the tower, I opened the loot I deserved and a cloud of light swirled around.
3 random steel skill packs (Heroic level or higher).
Although the Heavenly Demon Advent skill has disappeared, the swordsmanship skill still remains. And as long as you are using the Sword of Winter Night as your main weapon, there is nothing wrong with steel synergy and settings.
Just because you are far beyond the standards of the system and have gained strength, that is not a reason to let down your guard.
A halo of light swirled and a message emerged.
[wow! Hero Card!]
[Hero Skill Card 《Sword Storm》 has been acquired!]
‘Home It’s so-so.’
It may seem like a skill worth using at the beginning of the season, but for the current Yoosung, using swordsmanship skills at some point or another would only be a waste of slots.
[Hero skill card 《Heavenly Heart Confidence》…]
Moreover, since he inherited the power of the Heavenly Demon, his abilities that seemed to come from martial arts were not much different.
No matter how strong your martial arts skills are, it will never be stronger than that of the Heavenly Demon.
In that sense, it was a passage that showed how deceptive the effect of swordsmanship was even though it was a hero-level skill.
‘If you expect nothing, you won’t get anything.’
So I put my disappointment aside and opened the last skill card.
[The Mechanism Lord exerts some kind of influence over card viewing!]
“Why is the Mechanism here?”
And Yoosung didn’t even have time to tilt his head at the message that was so unexpected.
This place shines brightly without anything to compare it to. Because it meant only one thing.
[wow! only . Myth card!]
“Wow, you just gave me the perfect balance. “This is why I can’t buy card packs at full price.”
[Acquired 《Mecha Cheonma Mass Production Factory Operation (Steel Machinery Barrier)》!]
《Mecha Cheonma Mass Production Factory Operation》
– Grade. Monomyth
– Attributes . Steel Machine Barrier
– Ability
. It is possible to mass-produce Mecha Cheonma by creating a factory-type barrier containing advanced technology.
. The higher the user’s mechanical skill aptitude, the
more sophisticated the Mecha Heavenly Demon becomes. Looking at the strange skill name, a question mark appeared above Yooseong’s head again. It was a skill that I couldn’t wait to test its performance.
“Elder Cheonma will be wailing in his grave.” Muttering as if it were someone else’s business, I calmly looked through the skill cards and changed the deck settings.

Lastly, it was not in the form of a skill card. Even shadow imitators who can show off the Heavenly Demon’s Sword.
It was time to command the army of the Heavenly Demon made up of shadows and mechanical devices amidst the layers of barriers and the cold of a winter night.
“It seems that solo players at the top of Tier 12 are appearing one by one.”
That evening, at the headquarters and home of the Hero King’s Guild Circus.
Master Park calmly told him news from the outside world, and stories about a world buried in the world of the tower that he could not even pay attention to flowed into Yooseong’s ears one by one.
“In addition, there are assassinations in the Middle East that are believed to be the work of Israeli players…
“It’s really varied.”
Things in the world.
At first I thought this game changed the world. However, what I feel every season is that this game cannot change anything in the world. Just like the King of Heroes, like the UN Peace Council, and like countries that don’t know what to do because they can’t eat each other.
“Oh right. And they said that player Georg’s situation was a bit strange.”
“Hmm really? “I guess you have some sort of senility.”
“No, they just went into hiding.”
“Are they hiding?”
“Yes, they seem to have stopped all activities and are frantically attacking this tower.”
Next, the name of one of the ten heroes, the tomb keeper, came out. He sacrificed the players and became an immortal monarch, but eventually fell and died at the hands of the King of Heroes.
But it didn’t die. Because all the players who fell from the tower in the faction battle that day were revived. Even the tomb keeper, who should have gained the power of an immortal monarch, fought against a meteor, and returned to nothingness, was no exception.
Still, I couldn’t understand.
Even the Immortal Lord’s immortality was meaningless in front of the shooting star’s sword. Because it was the sword of the Heavenly Demon, a sword of emptiness and meaninglessness that could dismantle all meaning and return it to nothingness.
Is the now revived tomb keeper Georg really the same Georg who fell by the hand of the meteor? So, who is giving the player’s power to him in a situation where the immortal lord who is supposed to give him power has fallen?
“Why are you doing that?”
“No, that’s a bit…
Master Park asked back, and Yoosung quickly shook his head and continued.
“I was thinking about what to have for dinner today.”
The laughter stopped.
The sound of laughter that should have rang out like usual from the throne at the end was no longer resounding.
That’s why there was a cold silence, like walking by the grave, and nothing changed.
There were 999 transcendent monarchs there, looking down on this world.
There were powerless monarchs at the lowest level, and at the highest level there were infinitely powerful monarchs whose names were after the seven great emperors.
And the majority of monarchs were somewhere in between.
Nevertheless, the fact that the throne is sitting high or low, and the height of the throne, cannot be everything that proves the monarch.
Because there were kings who were silent and just waiting for their time to come.
And when the jester monarch’s laughter finally stopped, the silent kings also began to break their silence.
“The time has come.”]
[“Let our game begin.”]
[The silent lords enter the war…]
And it was never a single lord who was silent.
