The 31st Piece Turns the Tables - Chapter 24

Episode 24

As expected, what we arrived at after passing the final gate was Borgo.

He probably passed the final hurdle easily.

The snowfall had already activated the final gateway device, and Borgo would have simply walked along the path that had continued from the ninth gateway.

“You haven’t escaped yet, you rat.”

Snowfall looked at him with eyes that turned golden.

Borgo’s entourage was seen next to him.

“What about the others?”

Borgo’s expression gradually hardened due to Kang Seol’s calm attitude and the question that seemed like he was not particularly afraid of Borgo.

“I’m the one asking the questions, you just have to answer and show your head. No, no. I’ll cut you into pieces and scatter you on the field. Wouldn’t that be better?”

“So it’s just the two of you?”

“I’m the one asking the questions, you bastard!”

Borgo trembled.

His voice trembled slightly, as if he was filled with more than a little anger.

However, his close associate changed the topic.

“Borgo… look at this.”

“…what?”

“Look at this treasure. “If there is a treasure like this, in the future we will…”

There were tremendous treasures scattered here that would have made an ordinary person’s heart pound if they had seen them.

He was completely fascinated by the golden objects and was touching them, with his back turned to Borgo.

In a way, the aide’s actions were natural. Isn’t the reason he followed the wayward Borgo here ultimately because of the treasure?

But his actions offended Borgo.

Whoa!

Kwasik!

“Wow!”

Borgo’s hatchet was imprinted on the back of an aide.

“Why… you bastard… why…”

“Don’t touch me. Hehe… it’s all mine.”

Borgo was already half crazy.

How could a leader who lost nearly 30 people while breaking through the ruins be sane?

Of course, the last one was killed by Borgo himself.

Kang Seol looked at Borgo and sarcastically said.

“Now that I see it, it was a miracle that two people even made it this far.”

“shut up! Shut up! This… I will take it all. “The treasure here and your life!”

“Then take it and try it.”

Borgo shoved whatever objects he could find around him into his arms. Even though my pockets were full, I tried to force myself to put shiny things in there.

He looked just like a madman.

“Hehe… It’s all mine.”

Then, he must have found something, so he ran there and forced it into his body.

It was the armor that Kangseol had chosen separately. Since it was a treasure that Kangseol had categorized with his own discerning eye, Borgo had no way of not being fascinated by it.

The armor slipped into the body as if Borgo owned it, without the need for any troublesome adjustments.

“It is indeed a treasure! very good!”

“You’ll regret it…”

And as if that wasn’t enough, he even put on the helmet that was lying next to him.

As expected, the helmet was adjusted to fit his body perfectly and gave him a lot of strength.

Borgo was completely devastated after breaking through the trap, so he was overcome by an even greater sense of fulfillment as an unknown power surged through him.

“Power… this power! “With this force, I will crush you so that you can’t even breathe!”

widely-!

He looked back at Kangseol as if he felt more confident after holding a decent-looking spear.

And it was only then that I realized that he had been just watching.

“Why are you just watching? “Why don’t you stop it?”

“Did no one tell you?”

“…what?”

“The name of this place.”

Hall of Temperance.

Borgo’s eyes rolled back.

Clearly there was someone trying to tell him what to watch out for.

– As you can see, this ruin was dismantled piece by piece by Kirjin, revealing its inner parts. There is nothing special about the upcoming gateway, and there are two things to be careful about…

Of the things to watch out for that Kirgin mentioned, I experienced one and did not experience the other.

No, you will experience it now.

When Borgo felt that someone was watching him, he turned his head towards it.

Kikigeek…

Izumokan’s personality is starting to change.

Its eyes were red and a snake’s tongue protruded from its mouth.

Just like he was angry.

An angry voice came from her mouth.

【You’re so greedy!!!】

At that moment, the entire space shook.

Izumokan shouted in a fearful voice, like a demon rather than a god.

【You will pay the price for your lack of self-control!】

“What?”

Borgo was startled by Izumokan’s voice, like a person caught stealing.

Qarring-!

A red flash of light flashed across Borgo, as if a bolt of lightning had struck.

“Uh… huh?”

But nothing unusual happened to him.

No, it didn’t seem to have happened.

“ha ha ha! greed? Greed is the driving force behind this borgo. If I hadn’t been greedy, I wouldn’t have gotten this far! No one can punish me! I… I… Uh… Ugh?”

Pop!

His right arm suddenly bent in the opposite direction.

“Quaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!

“You were punished.”

“Everyone shut up! Why does my body… move the way it wants….”

Pudduk!

“Ugh!”

This time it was Borgo’s left leg that was broken.

Is this Izumokan’s punishment?

This was not the end of the unknown reasons.

Kwarung-!

[Borgo is cursed with Izumokan.]

[Borgo can handle all objects in the Hall of Temperance without restrictions.] [

Borgo’s body regeneration is greatly increased.]

[Borgo’s all stats are reduced by 50%. ]

[Borgo loses his physical freedom to the ghost of Izumokan.]

A lot of messages came to Kangseol’s mind.

‘It has begun.’

The final gateway to breaking through the Hall of Temperance.

You can think of it as a hidden gimmick or hidden stage.

Kang!

Quickly!

Churrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!

Objects from everywhere flew into Borgo’s body.

Light-looking boots, sturdy gaiters, a circular shield that can respond nimbly to attacks, and even a chain that can be wrapped around one hand.

Borgo was surprised to see treasures coming even though he did not intend it.

“The body… does whatever it wants!”

Jerk.

Borgo took a step with a clumsy movement. And at that moment,

pot!

It rushed towards the snowfall at an incredibly fast speed.

It was definitely so fast that it could have been missed from sight, but since Kang Seol had already developed his insight, all of the movements were detected.

Whoa!

Borgo’s spear was fired towards the snowfall.

but.

Tung-!

“He can’t even control his body properly.”

Before he knew it, Jamard was standing in front of the snowfall and blocked one attack.

When Kang Seol looked at the borgo, an interface different from before came to mind.

[Ghost of Izumokan (Relic Hunter Borgo)]

Grade: Rare

Estimated level: 8-10

Borgo, a ruin hunter who was influential near Nobira, broke the rules of the Hall of Temperance. As a result, she was cursed by Izumokan and became a doll that gave her body to the ghosts.

Basic abilities: [Life Squeeze 2] [Treasure 1] [Mercenary Weapon Skills 2] [Swift Evasion 1] [Weapon Destruction 1] Special Abilities: [

Returning Strike 1]

An interface window with a lengthy explanation of Borgo.

Kang Seol immediately realized what was happening.

‘It’s the effect of insight!’

Being able to obtain this level of information in a situation where I had just obtained it and could not handle it properly was proof of how effective the insight was.

‘These are abilities that can be roughly guessed. However, I have to be careful about the special ability, Conversion Strike.’

Jamad looked back at Kang Seol, who was thinking alone, and asked.

“Hey Snowman. “What are you thinking?”

“That’s…”

“Forget your petty worries and trust me. It’s just a waste of time to worry about dealing with a bastard like this…”

Whew!

Ga Ga Ga Ga Ga….

Borgo must have thrown the treasures nearby, and a huge armor came flying out.

Jamard caught it without speaking, but was pushed away.

“I… the reason I became like this is because of you! “I will definitely kill you…”

Borgo’s body moved strangely.

He showed unusual movements as if he was being controlled by a parasite.

Huh-!

Clap la la rock!

A chain attack applied diagonally.

However, Jamard also responded in the same way.

“Where!”

Sigh!

A chain was wrapped around the mountain’s fist.

Squeak-!

Squeak-!

They struggled to pull each other by the chains.

Crunch-!

“Let go! You arrogant…”

“Ha! “I don’t like it.”

Jamard snorted and flexed his muscles.

The shadow vibrated viciously.

Well-!

Sigh-!

“Kwaaaah!”

After all, Borgo’s arm was broken.

No, that wasn’t the end.

“Haaaab!”

Jamard took over the momentum and pulled Borgo towards him.

and.

Quaaaaang-!

He kicked Borgo’s pelvis with a cool kick.

What happened in that reaction was incredibly cruel.

Sigh-!

Thong… Thong…

“Kaaah!”

Borgo’s arm was amputated and his pelvis was twisted. From the outside, it seemed like I would never be able to stand up again.

But something unexpected happened.

[Stand up and protect the hall.]

As soon as Izumokan’s voice reached him, Borgo’s body regenerated in an instant.

Sigh!

Grumbling.

The pelvis was also adjusted in an instant.

Borgo laughed even though he was in pain.

“Hehehe… I am invincible. Hehe… I have to protect the hall… my treasure.”

Borgo speaks, even drooling from the terrible pain.

He was a doll who had already lost his mind.

Snowfall’s complexion frowned.

If it weren’t for the ability score penalty imposed on Borgo, the battle situation would have been overwhelmingly unfavorable.

“joy! All you have to do is break it into pieces so that it can never stand up again. do not worry.”

“Don’t touch my treasure!”

Buuuung-!

Huuuuung-!

Borgo’s movements were gradually becoming faster.

I don’t know if the ghost had adapted to Borgo’s body or if there was another reason, but it wasn’t a good situation.

Quaaaang!

Tooung-!

Jamard’s fist struck Borgo’s armor and shield. But Borgo now seemed almost unscathed. No, I ignored the pain.

“Get out of the way, you troll!”

Jamard anticipated Borgo’s attack and took a stance.

[Borgo uses Treasure Charm.]

[The combo activates.]

“No! Dangerous!”

“what?”

With a short shout from Snowfall, a sword flew out from behind Jamard.

“Tsk!”

Kyaang-!

I barely managed to throw the sword away, but my hand was numb.

But Borgo’s real attack was still to come.

[Borgo’s special ability: Heartbreaking Strike is activated.]

[The impact of Borgo’s next hit is doubled.] [

The knockback effect is applied.]

[If the knockback effect hits terrain, additional damage is applied. ]

Huuuung-!

The battle hammer was suddenly in Borgo’s hand.

“Get out of my face!”

Kwaziik-!

“Kwaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

…

Kwaaang-!

Jamard collapsed two pillars and fell into the wall.

Puss…

Stones poured down on top of it, raising dust. I could guess how big of a shock he was receiving from that appearance.

Borgo slowly walked towards Kang Seol, probably because he thought he had won.

“Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu…are you alone now? What should I do because I feel sad? “Is it okay to die in a place like this?”

Kang Seol snorted at the sight of him predicting victory in advance.

“…Why are you smiling? ah! That’s it. That’s right, I laugh when I’m angry too. Are you like that too? “Are you angry because you can’t accept death?”

“I haven’t lost yet?”

“I was scared haha! “It’s ugly.”

[Borgo uses Treasure Charm.]

Whilick!

Phew…

thump!

A long sword flew out of the treasure pile and caught in his hand.

He held it upside down and lifted it above his head.

A summoner who loses his summons will be pierced by this sword.

Boom-!

But the moment the sword is swung.

Quaaaaang-!

Swoosh –

Jamard, who had flown behind the snowfall, jumped out and pulled the snowfall like a thunderbolt.

Thanks to Jamard’s actions, Snowfall was instantly out of the range of Borgo’s sword.

“Where!”

Whoa!

Wow.

Borgo’s sword Jamard, who followed him aiming for the snowfall, blocked his wrist and stopped the chase.

“Off….”

Pout.

Jamard frowned, shaking his neck from side to side.

“Fools have greed but do not see fear.”

“…What are you saying? “You troll!”

“This Jamard… will put fear in you.”

Jamard’s eyes burned fiercely.

[Jammard switches to earthquake stance.]

Druddudduddud…

The vibrations were transmitted to Jamard and Borgo, who was connected to his body.

The ability that Karuna had been struggling with was activated.

“This body is different from yours….”

“Get out! “Profit… right in front of me! It’s nothing special!”

Kwazijic!

“Aaaah!”

Jamard once again broke Borgo’s wrist.

And he ended his conversation with Borgo with one word.

“When I get angry, I get angry.”
