The Genius Assassin Who Takes it All - Chapter 203

Episode 203: Change (3)

* * *

While I was resting in a half-body bath for the first time in a while, I received a call from Ahn Young-ho.

I asked them not to contact me for about a day except for item sales.

However, based on the contact I received, it seemed like the item had sold out.

“Oh, Youngho.”

– Brother’s item sale has ended. It was appraised quickly and the owner was found quickly.

“It seems like it was an internal sale within the guild.”

– Yes. It was more popular perhaps because it was an item my brother obtained by killing Toshi Guild guys.

“How much?”

– It is 79 billion won. Should I deposit money right away? This is the after-tax amount.

“Please deposit the money right away.”

– Yes, the money will be deposited from our guild-only account. Oh, and some of the items exploded and I couldn’t sell them.

“It seemed like it.”

– sorry. It lost its value as an item, so I tried to sell it as a souvenir…

“It worked.” Even if you give me something like that, I won’t take it.”

Kang Hu smiled bitterly.

This is why bloodletting is a problem.

It specializes in delivering a fatal blow by exploding the enemy’s accumulated wounds at once.

However, there were more cases than expected where worn items were damaged in the process of the body exploding.

In particular, necklaces with poor durability were the main victims of blood poisoning.

It was also an inevitable fate for a strong player who often targets the neck in his attack repertoire.

Same thing this time too.

There were more than four items that were broken through blood fire. As a result, I was disappointed at Jeongsan.

After waiting for a moment, a deposit notification immediately appeared.

– Brother, the deposit has been made!

“Oh, I checked. thank you.”

– Take a break! There will be no further contact until you contact me first!

“okay. I’ll contact you.”

I hung up the phone immediately.

When I checked with the banking app, my bank account balance was 264.1 billion won.

A creative economy that makes money by killing hunters. It wasn’t what I intended, but the ending ended up being good.

“An era where death becomes money.”

This phrase is also written in the original work.

This is an era where you kill a hunter, take his items, and make them your own.

It was also the reason why murders between hunters continued around the world.

Because it makes money.

In the early days of Hunter’s era, the magistrate’s office had considerable power, and law and order worked to some extent at that time.

However, it is a different story now that individual life has become the default. No one protects anyone’s life.

“1st grade items are also coming soon…”

I am getting greedy.

A first-class item with no price limit, with a minimum of 500 billion won and a maximum of 500 billion won.

Ganghu’s greed for the first-class dagger was growing rapidly.

As much as there are bad luck gloves.

This is because even if you wear a grade 1 dagger, you can also wear the grade 2 dagger you are currently wearing, Corrupted Faith.

And a level 0 item that could only be made through special fusion under special conditions suddenly appeared.

It is not possible right away as it requires two grade 1 items as materials, but it is a goal that will be met someday.

For this reason, no matter how much money I make, it feels like it’s not enough.

This is also the hunter’s economy. If you decide to spend it, spending hundreds of billions of won is not a problem.

“after.”

Kanghu exhaled hot breath and took a deep dive into the bathtub again.

And I confirmed the stolen constellation information. These were things I had put off because I was focusing on the necessary things.

【Invincible】

【Damage is strengthened by (level difference * 0.1)% against targets lower than you.】

【Perseverance】

【Skill evasion rate is increased by (level difference * 0.01)% against targets higher than yourself. It increases.】

These were the two constellations stolen from Cha So-hyuk. Although the names are different, the concept seems similar.

It is a constellation contract that can be meaningfully used by both the relatively strong and the weak.

Because it works by hitting the weak guy harder or better avoiding the strong guy’s attacks.

“no wonder. “It felt like the hand holding the dagger was going to be torn apart.”

During the battle with Cha So-hyuk, his sword and dagger clashed several times.

Every time, Kang-hu’s right hand went beyond trembling and he thought it would break. It was that powerful.

I wondered why that was, but it seemed to be because of the invincible constellation.

The Perseverance Constellation also looks pretty good.

Increasing the evasion rate means that the possibility of avoiding a skill increases even if there is a very small difference.

【Black Glow】

【You can designate one skill and change it to a skill that utilizes the dark age simultaneously.

To re-specify, you must permanently consume 10 Dark Ages.】

【Heir of the Dead】

【You can learn one skill from the hunter you killed.

Once learning is completed, the contract with the constellation will be converted to a contract that increases the Dark Age by 25.】 The

two constellations were stolen by a warlock. As was the nature of the job, the constellation he contracted with was also related to the Dark Ages.

“It seems that it would be best to combine Black Sunset with Great Decapitation… Hold off on the successor to Fierce Line for now.”

It means a lot to be able to utilize the dark times in parallel.

This is because there is one more way to hunt ghost monsters such as Black Guide or Black Shadow.

Currently, hunting is possible only with Black Moon Clash or basic attacks that lack firepower due to low coordination.

However, if you can create a parallel skill using the Black Sunset Constellation, that skill will also be included in the available options.

The Heir of Death Constellation allows you to learn a skill by targeting the hunter you killed.

It seemed like I needed to think carefully.

Although skill copy is backward compatible, useful skills are not necessarily found only in high-level hunters.

【Third Eye】

【You can install a third eye at a designated point and share the field of view as much as that eye’s field of view.

The third eye is invisible because it is transparent, but it is sensitive to the flow of mana and is easily damaged.】

“This is for reconnaissance. Although it is a constellation robbery, it feels closer to the feeling of stealing a scouting skill.”

The third eye stolen by the assassin seemed to have many uses.

When hunters go to a dungeon, the thing they worry about the most is the rear.

Although we check for safety as much as possible before entering, no one knows who will come after us.

In preparation for this, if you have a third eye, you can at least recognize the presence of an intruder. Apart from its trivial durability.

The constellation was filled to the brim.

This picture is possible thanks to the Dimension Stealer.

It gives you not only items but also additional benefits in the form of constellations from the hunters you always kill.

I was once again feeling special as it was a privilege that other hunters could not enjoy.

“We need more main constellations.”

Ganghu’s thoughts, which seemed to be momentarily satisfied with the constellation’s usurpation, naturally expanded in another direction.

It was about three constellation slots that were still empty.

The current main constellation, Dimension Stealer, Wilderness Strategist, and Seeker of Pure Darkness, does not occupy a slot.

Although each reason was different, it was never a factor that held Kang-hu back.

I didn’t want to impulsively fill them all, but I wanted to fill at least one out of three positions.

Although it is good to be cautious, being too frugal is not always good.

When Ganghu had a new concern, the three main constellations each expressed their opinions.

【Do whatever you want. Anyway, even if I tell you, you won’t listen.】

The Dimension Stealer gave the first expected reaction.

That means that even if a new constellation is introduced, the will will be respected. Now Kang Hu also knows her speaking style.

【I will support whatever decision you make if it can help you. You don’t have to worry about me.】

A constellation that always supports the strategist in the wilderness! She also has the expected reaction.

【Everything is according to the contractor’s wishes.】

The pure black seeker also humbly supported Kang Hu’s decision.

Although he was the highest ranked among the three main constellations, he never showed off or acted arrogantly.

So, on the one hand, there were parts that made me nervous. It’s because I always feel a strange sense of distance.

“Then, the support of the Constellations…”

It was around the time when Ganghu was trying to appeal to the Constellations who were sponsoring or watching him for the vacant position.

A constellation that had been quiet until now suddenly appeared.

I half-intended for him to show up, but I got caught. This is the picture I wanted.

【I wish I could sit in one seat.】

Apocalypse – Those were the words of darkness.

He is as high in the Great Crusade ranking as the Pure Black Seeker, within the top 50. It is a being whose name is displayed in golden color.

“Have you made up your mind? “I am welcome.”

Ganghu spoke in a soft voice.

It’s funny that he’s saying this while lying naked in a bathtub… but

anyway, the world of constellations is a world that transcends the human realm. There’s no way something like this would be funny.

【Among the beings I’ve watched, there’s no one like you. Or even among the beings not paying attention.】

This is high praise.

This means that although I have looked at many hunters, I have not been able to find one as good as Ganghu.

“Then shall we join you?”

【I just want to say one thing. It seems that constellations that we are not aware of exist in this world.

I would like to work with you to find such a constellation or the contractees who signed a contract with the constellation. It is deep curiosity.】

“I clearly understand what you mean. “It seems like what happened last time is still bothering you.”

【It would be a lie to say otherwise.】

God’s wish.

Kang Hu also remembers that incident clearly. It was about a constellation that even the constellations didn’t know about.

I thought it was like one huge future piece of cake… but Kang-hoo was currently reserving his judgment.

This is because it is not a problem that can be answered just by thinking about it and worrying about it.

As time passes, new clues or circumstances related to it will naturally be discovered.

Then, just go back and think again. There was no need to think complicatedly.

【The approval of the Great Seongjeon was received a long time ago. Let’s proceed with the contract.】

It seems like he had already made up his mind and received provisional approval a long time ago.

However, looking at the fact that he kept his mouth shut, it seemed like he did not want to be embarrassed by other constellations.

Constellations are also beings who make a living out of pride. Apocalypse – Heart of Darkness was fully understandable.

【Sitting side by side on four identical thrones and fighting against each other… That’s a damn thing.】

The Dimension Stealer grumbled, but didn’t care. Because her expressions are always like that.

The contract went through quickly.

Since Daeseongjeon’s approval had been completed and there were no disagreements between the parties, it was all smooth sailing.

and.

Soon, three new contract perks related to the Apocalypse – Dark Constellation were revealed.

【first. By utilizing the contractor’s unique mana recovery, you can smoothly recover from the dark period at that speed.

However, in the process, the overload on the body skyrockets to five times the original amount.】

‘It’s okay. ‘If you use it often, it will be a waste, but other than that, it is the best for emergency recovery.’

Is it because it is a high-level constellation?

From the beginning, there was a special benefit that relieved Kang-hoo of something he had always felt regretful about.

Kang-hu’s eyes brightened even more as he learned that he could not help but look forward to the other two perks.

It was a look of anticipation.
