The Genius Assassin Who Takes it All - Chapter 243

Episode 243: Norway (4)

Actually, it wasn’t a special question.

Even if it’s not Park Dong-jae, there are many hunters who are curious about Jang Si-hwan or Chae Gwan-hyung.

There are only two types of hunters who are not curious about the Named.

Either you have no interest in what is going on in the world, or you are a named person. One of the two.

As the original author, it was the current Kang-hoo who knew too much about the two.

However, since I couldn’t tell it like it is, I started with an excuse to detour.

“In the past, when I was looking for mercenaries from outside, I had the opportunity to join the search team and watch them fight from afar.”

“Wow really?”

“huh. Jang Si-hwan is a warlock who knows how to manipulate space. Spatial ability is not the main thing, but that ability alone puts him ahead of Kenji Hosaka.”

“Isn’t Kenji Hosaka almost an authority on space utilization?”

“Wow, it’s a funny party in front of Jang Si-hwan.”

Kanghu said with a laugh. Even compared to Kenji Hosaka, who was initially level 500, Jang Si-hwan is overwhelmingly higher at level 800.

“What else? “Not the parts that were released in the video.”

“In the case of black magic, there are many immediate effects. Usually, the flow is like casting a skill and projectiles flying out.”

“as soon as?”

“uh. “If you point somewhere with your hand, the fire spreads, the space oxidizes, collapses, and explodes.”

“…You’re crazy.”

“I think I can tell you this much. It’s even equipped with necromancy.”

After reciting it all the way through, it occurred to me that Ganghu was a very difficult enemy.

Overall, this is the most difficult wizard type to deal with.

In addition, although he did not tell Park Dong-jae, Jang Si-hwan also had the ability to control the flow of mana around him.

Therefore, it was possible to create a favorable environment by strategically attracting mana only to oneself.

“How is Chae Gwan-hyung?”

I wanted to open the conversation by saying he was an asshole, but I thought he probably knew it well anyway, so I let it go.

“I’m good at moving short distances. “The short blinks are top-notch, so it’s very hectic.”

For that reason, he is a swordsman who has very good mobility and is quite capable of creating variables.

In addition, it has been a long time since I worked with Jang Si-hwan, so I was a perfect match for his ability to utilize space.

“And for a swordsman, he has a lot of magic-related skills. “It would be better to give him the title ‘Demon Swordsman’ so there would be no confusion in understanding his characteristics.”

“Wow… Looks like you looked really closely. “It doesn’t show that much in the purification guild video, right?”

“Usually, Jang Si-hwan’s spatial ability and short-distance movement are combined to show a lot of acrobatics in the air.”

“uh! I also watched a lot of that. “You’ve seen a lot of different magic skills, right?”

“What happened?”

Kang Hu gave a vague look around.

If you go into detail, there are no limits to these two people. It’s also a character that was put that much effort into in the original work.

Naturally, memories of not only the two, but also the remaining members of the thirteen stars come to mind.

‘Every single one is powerful. The deeper I dig into what I know, the more clearly I feel it.’

Although Kang Hu did not feel fear in most cases, his body reacted differently to the thirteen stars.

The body flinches as if there is learned fear.

Of course, if I had to fight, I was prepared to fight until the end, even at the risk of death.

And against some guys, I was at least confident that I wouldn’t die.

But what about winning? I have won thousands of times in my imagination, not in real life, but it is only my imagination.

“I think my brother can become a name like those two. No, actually, it’s already been a while, right?”

“Okay, that’s nonsense.”

“You don’t know, bro? My brother’s stake in the Black Network has increased significantly these days. I’m monitoring everything, so I’ll tell you any bad news in advance. don’t worry.”

I’m also curious about the Black Network. What kind of conversation is taking place there?

I thought it would be similar to the ‘Taki Fam’ that was depicted in relation to Takashi in the original work.

However, Takifam feels like a small-scale friendship, and Black Network feels like a dark community of an unspecified number of people.

at that time.

“for a moment.”

After confirming that they had arrived at the point where the route to the double dungeon was located, Kang-hoo stretched out his hand to stop Park Dong-jae.

The reason I came to dungeon 13 was to take advantage of the opportunity.

There was no need to go the existing route at all. Spending effort there is a complete waste of value.

“huh? why?”

There is no monster that can be clearly identified, but Park Dong-jae looks puzzled when Kang-hoo blocks his path.

However, I soon cleared away my doubts and waited for Kang-hu to continue speaking.

This is because there is absolutely no case where Kang-hu acts without reason. It is safe to say with confidence that it is 0%.

“I see something.”

Ganghu slyly pointed to the point where the entrance to the double dungeon was located.

Even if you look intently at it, you won’t be able to recognize it if you don’t maintain concentration.

It is similar to an imbalance point. It is a place where only the smallest details function differently from the natural order of things.

For example, only one leaf, which should be swaying left and right with the wind, sways to the right and left.

If there is no awareness, it is a form of distorted information that can be overlooked by assuming that it is the way it is.

“Look at that flower. “The surrounding flowers and blades of grass are swaying in the wind, but there is no movement, like a still image.”

“where?”

Park Dong-jae tilted his head.

This is because there are so many flowers in the place Kang-hu pointed to.

There were many similar flowers, so it felt like a difficult game of finding the difference.

Kang-hoo gently pulled Park Dong-jae, who was still slow to understand, and guided him slyly.

And when he got close enough to the confirmed location, Park Dong-jae also immediately figured out the nature of the space.

“and! this…! Isn’t it like a double dungeon? The space here is really noisy? Like a passageway?”

“It seems so.”

Pretending not to know and discovering something for the first time is quite natural.

Looking back, it is clear that it is a place that does not attract attention because it was not taken along the main travel route.

It’s easy to guess why so many hunters who would have passed by here before had no choice but to miss this space.

Well, it could be Bo Jeong, the main character of the original work.

Could it be the author’s own omniscient reason that cannot be discovered for tens of thousands of reasons until the main character arrives?

Anyway, I was about to reach for the spoons on the table prepared for Jang Si-hwan and Chae Gwan-hyeong first.

“Let’s go in.”

“If this doesn’t fit, I won’t be able to get it out, right?”

Park Dong-jae’s heart was already beyond the passage, as was Kang-hoo’s.

I don’t think there’s any need to explain to him in detail how I found this place.

Kang-hoo went inside with Park Dong-jae. It was a dungeon within a dungeon.

The environment has changed.

Before coming here, the overall dungeon landscape was a barren environment with lots of rugged mountain paths and rocks.

Inside the dungeon, the environment was impressive with a dense forest and numerous trees. The air was really nice.

“This doesn’t calm my heart.”

Unlike Park Dong-jae, whose emotions of embarrassment, excitement, anticipation, and worry coexist.

Kanghu was looking around with a calm expression. Park Dong-jae asked if he felt a sense of heterogeneity.

“Aren’t you anxious?”

“Let’s just say I look into more information around me that might be helpful during times of anxiety. “It’s not that I’m not anxious.”

“You have a strong heart, brother.”

Kang-hu, who slyly gave a reason for not feeling anxious, laughed to himself.

This is where you can feel how having memories of the original work is a great advantage and characteristic for you.

Choosing a travel route is simple.

Throughout your journey, you will constantly come across crossroads as if you are being forced to make a choice.

Among them, you only need to choose the route that is most suspicious and smells like something is going on.

In other words, all routes that seem safe are dangerous routes. You have to completely twist your thinking.

“First of all, there are definitely scouts, so don’t worry.”

Kieeeeek!

Ganghu immediately summoned the Corruption Demon.

If you say it’s information he’s collected, it will somewhat reinforce the reason why you only choose the right path with a 100% probability.

Kanghu hurried his steps.

It’s unlikely that anyone would enter the dungeon, but I desperately wanted to get lucky as soon as possible.

* * *

An hour later.

Kang-hoo and Park Dong-jae, who had safely moved inside through a total of ten choices, were facing the monster.

I had never faced any other miscellaneous monsters in the middle, but the middle boss monster appeared right away.

The name is Odaf.

It was given the title ‘Fallen Tree Spirit’ as a modifier, and there was a good reason for that.

Starting from the thick root on the ground that Kang-hoo and Park Dong-jae are currently stepping on.

All the trees visible around were within Odaf’s sphere of influence.

Some of them were Odaf’s bodies, and some were faithful servants who only followed Odaf’s orders.

【Odaf – Corrupted Tree Spirit】

【When removed, you can definitely increase level 5.】

“The reward is crazy?”

Park Dong-jae’s mouth dropped when he saw the specially activated information window related to Odaf.

The higher the level, the more benefits you will feel, but there is no loss if you get it now.

Kang-hoo, who found a way to keep Park Dong-jae safe from the memories of the original, spoke in a low voice.

“Dongjae.”

“huh.”

“I’m going to stick a dagger in a tree. “Never come out of that tree and only provide buff support.”

“Which tree?”

“here.”

Easy profit! Pop!

The level 5 dagger ‘Joy of the Sky’, which Kang Hu flew with lightning speed, was stuck in the center of a tree pillar.

The only tree where Odaf’s ‘good self’ functions. It is a body that retains the innocence it had before it was corrupted into its current form.

Park Dong-jae moved quickly.

why? how did you know? The same question was omitted. This is a question that can be easily skipped with trust in Kang-hoo.

“Goes.”

After confirming that Park Dong-jae was safely settled as if surrounded by the tree of good self, Kang-hu moved.

Odaf, aware of the presence of an uninvited guest, immediately began shaking several trees to target Ganghu.

Coo coo coo coo! Coo!

As expected, here and there, tree trunks that seemed to be standing still stretched out and flew in violently.

Needless to say, each of the stems was thick and fast, and many of them had sharply trimmed ends.

It was a perfect situation where, if you accidentally got stuck once, you could end up getting tree trunks stuck all over your body.

Even though many tree trunks were shaking, the tree trunk that Kang-hoo guided Park Dong-jae to was intact.

It felt as if the tree trunk itself was withstanding external forces, as if it were being held up by force.

Park Dong-jae updated Kang-hoo’s buff while tilting his head as he looked at this peaceful place in the midst of chaos.

“Future poetry…?”

The double dungeon is a space that Kang-hoo must have been to for the first time, let alone himself.

But how do we know how to use this tree as a safe haven?

I feel like I already knew the strategy before I came!

A picture was unfolding that could never be explained without the word ‘future poetry’. A shiver ran down my spine.
