The Genius Assassin Who Takes it All - Chapter 94

Episode 94: Proof of Value (1)

* * *

The dungeon raid has begun.

Although the dungeon had a different official name, the three people nicknamed it ‘Maze Dungeon’.

The higher the level.

The dungeons I encountered had a lot of complicated twists and turns, so it was a special experience.

In fact, it is a dungeon concept that largely reflects the original author’s intentions.

It was really fun to use it because it was easy to increase the level of difficulty by making it a maze-type dungeon.

but.

‘It sucks to be in a challenging position.’

Now that I was in the position of experiencing it firsthand, I didn’t feel very happy. You have to be on alert at all times.

“hmm.”

As soon as I entered the dungeon, I saw three snipers who had taken a position and occupied the point.

He is a sentry guarding the dungeon entrance. Although his skills are not outstanding, he is a sniper, so he cannot be at ease.

According to the promised sum, Ganghu immediately started charging. The closest guy is Ganghu’s target.

【Leap】

【Acceleration】

【Leap】

The most basic skills were combined and linked. For now, the priority is to quickly close the distance to the target.

Although it may be a momentary overload on the body, there is nothing better than the simple combination of acceleration and leaping.

Taang!

First, Ban Se-young’s gun burst into flames.

One of the snipers who were positioned in a triangle formation was hit in the right shoulder by Ban Se-young’s sniper.

And Jeon Se-hyuk withheld his special skill, arrow attack, and instead induced the sniper’s attack.

He pretended to aim for the sniper in the back right, then took two steps back.

Next moment.

Taang! Push!

Sparks flew from the spot where he had just stepped, and the stray magic bullets scattered in vain.

Jeon Se-hyuk chose judo instead of attacking, and his aim was a success.

Now it was Ganghu’s turn.

Sigh!

I couldn’t hear any sound, but it felt like a sniper’s gun was aimed properly.

It is a very subtle pain that can be felt when the flow of mana that induces magic bullets is concentrated at one point.

It was something that even a decent hunter, let alone an ordinary person, could never feel.

However, it was a sensation that Kang-hu, who had developed senses due to congenital mana hypersensitivity, could easily feel.

【Shadow Walk】

Spaang!

At that moment, Ganghu’s shadow scattered into three branches.

The sniper’s muzzle shook, confused by the sudden development. This is because we have to aim for the ‘real’ Ganghu.

It was soon confirmed that the shadow was fake and that the real Kang-hu was still in the same place.

Kanghu happened to be sitting behind a tree that was in his path.

Wooooow!

The sniper has increased mana output.

I made up my mind to hide behind a tree, and I was going to hit Ganghu’s head with the entire tree trunk.

The target, Ganghu, was still in place and the sniper pulled the trigger with a smile of regret.

Taang! Perseuseok!

Like a high-powered magic bullet, the entire tree exploded. Of course, the fate of Kang Hu’s head, which was hiding behind him, was not much different.

however.

“…?”

The sniper tilted his head when he saw that Kang-hu’s flesh and blood, which should have been scattered, were not visible.

That moment.

A figure that appeared as a shadow until just now was seen changing into the appearance of Ganghu.

At that point, Ganghu was already ready to throw blood at the sniper.

【Light rain】

Kuwaaa!

Because the distance was so close and Ganghu used all his strength, a loud noise was heard from the dagger.

The blood flowed through space in an instant and was lodged between the eyes without the sniper having time to do anything.

Not only that, but the sniper was aware of Kang-hoo’s approach and tried to target Kang-hoo, not Jeon Se-hyuk.

Pooh wow!

He died instantly along with his colleague.

When Jeon Se-hyuk took out the sniper’s attack by one turn by guiding the attack instead of attacking.

Ganghu had already established a connection. Knowing that Jeon Se-hyuk did not attack first, I thought about the next step.

This means that since Jeon Se-hyuk decided to take charge, he did not pass it over, thinking he would handle it.

“wow.”

“It’s neat, brother. right?”

“That’s right. Usually, assassins mainly cover based on their skills. “Mr. Seongyu always includes a number of fights in it.”

“Isn’t it a burden to fight over your head? “If the other person is smart, I might be in danger, right?”

“Seyoung, think differently. “If I’m confident that I’m smart, there’s nothing more fun than a battle of wits.”

“I’m a poor person…”

“Imagine you are Zhuge Liang of the Three Kingdoms. “It must be fun to make fun of stupid people, right?”

Jeon Se-hyuk patted Ban Se-young on the shoulder and encouraged him.

She was definitely the type of person who instinctively fought with her body rather than her head. Of course, that’s another advantage.

Anyway, the entrance obstacle(?) has been dealt with.

In the past, when Park Dong-jae and I came together, the only person who could instantly snipe from a distance was Se-young Ban.

Even if one sniper was captured, the two snipers had to take their time to attack.

Although Jeon Se-hyuk is skilled with a bow, he cannot fire arrows as quickly as a magic bullet.

However, in this attack, thanks to Kang-hu’s confusion among them, the path was cleared too easily.

“I’m nervous because this is my first time working with a proper assassin.”

Without realizing it, Ban Se-young already thought of Kang-hu as a ‘proper assassin.’

Although she has played team games with many hunters so far, there were always one or two aspects she did not like.

But it wasn’t Ganghu.

I was already taking action before I could think of something as a complaint.

Same as just now.

By the time Kang-hoo had killed the sniper he had been in charge of, the next attack had already gone to the sniper targeting Jeon Se-hyeok.

If it were another hunter.

Ban Se-young would have had to add support firepower or at least shout out that it was timing.

This is because the concept of pretending to be perfect is difficult to establish unless you have worked together for quite some time.

“Do your best. There is no change in my opinion that he will be a good partner. “Do your best while you have it.”

Jeon Se-hyuk said with a smile.

Although I didn’t see Ganghu for a long time, I was able to tell the hunter’s skills and basic skills with just a brief look.

Kanghu was a hunter who naturally possessed the basic skills of an assassin and had excellent scalability.

It almost makes you wonder if it would be right to give him a single, unified job title, ‘Assassin.’

If I could give it an unofficial name… I thought how about a name like dual class or triple class.

This is because there are cases where the skills you have have a completely different direction from the assassination series.

Anyway, from now on, Jeon Se-hyuk was planning to focus only on opening rooms, not on gaining experience points.

So it was promised.

Later, it will help when conquering boss monsters, but even then, it is a sub concept, not a main one.

The person in charge of the main leading and ordering of this three-person team was Kang Hoo, who was at the lowest level.

It’s funny when you look at it from the outside.

If you were to see it from the inside as a member of the team, it was an obvious structure that you could never laugh at.

* * *

“I said that if you clear the first room quickly, a shortcut path will open.”

“that’s right. “As I said during the briefing, the faster the dungeon is conquered, the better the reward.”

“Then I guess I’ll have to do some doping.”

Kaduk! Lots of cards!

Ganghu took out the solarium and chewed it hard.

I feel like I want to eat Mad Solarchium and fight while using up a lot of mana.

Mad Solarchium was too precious for that. I thought how great it would be if I could get it infinitely.

One of the reasons for wanting to meet Master K was the problem related to this Mad Solarchium.

I want to ask for his advice because he is not someone you can always get just because you have money.

“What is that?”

“Solachyum.”

“Isn’t there anything in particular other than a calming effect? “I don’t think it’s very good at suppressing pain.”

“Well, let’s just say it’s the concept of chewing gum as a routine.”

“but. “Tastes are respected!”

Ban Se-young, who does not know Kang-hoo’s special physical condition, cannot help but not know that Solarium is important to Kang-hoo.

Kanghu was sure.

If it weren’t for Solarkium, I wouldn’t have been able to grow with peace of mind until now.

This guy turned ‘congenital mana intolerance’, which could have been a serious handicap, into an advantage.

“Two minutes. Please raise your hand when you’re ready. “The dungeon count will start from the moment the door opens.”

Jeon Se-hyuk kindly guided us.

If he is left alone in the ‘Room of Departure’, the next room will open.

In order to maintain the passage, at least one person must be in the room immediately before.

He was going to play this role until the end.

And in times of great danger, it was planned to support long-distance attacks at the request of Kang Hu or Ban Se-young.

Until then, we decided not to provide any help unless there was a request, no matter how urgent the situation seemed.

Kang-hoo and Ban Se-young had a common will to avoid providing help that could easily be provided to improve their skills.

Before departure.

Kang-hoo said to Ban Se-young.

“I won’t look back. I will run with faith, so please support me. Then, I will definitely pay for the food for at least two people.”

“Do you believe it?”

“You won’t believe it.”

Ban Se-young nodded and smiled brightly at Kang-hoo’s confident words.

It could be said that he had endless confidence, but she liked Kang-hoo’s confidence.

And Kanghu has always proven the reason for his confidence. So there was no disbelief.

Clang.

The moment the door opens.

Faaah!

Kang Hu’s appearance disappeared from Ban Se-young’s sight.

He had already made a series of accelerated leaps and had entered the center of the room in an instant.

In particular, at the end, I used shadow steps to push the shadow deeper and change its position.

Thanks to this, Kanghu was already seated in the middle of the room even before all the doors were opened.

And this was the place with the most monsters in the room.

The monster type was ‘awakened orc’ and it was not very tenacious. Instead, the firepower of the attack itself was high.

Taang!

Kuweeeek! Wow! Kwiek!

Ban Se-young’s fire-breathing magic bullet blew off the heads of four orcs in one blow.

Because the tenacity was weak and the density was high, the effect that could be achieved with a single attack was large.

The point of this room is not to show off your strength, but to annihilate all monsters as quickly as possible.

Kang-hu immediately set the plan.

【Wind-roster shield】

A wind-roster shield was laid as if to show off.

It is literally a space of death, where you will be attacked by all kinds of electric currents and sharp winds as soon as you step inside.

Ganghu, who was located in the center of the storm, immediately placed a protective barrier on himself just in case.

This is because this place is about to turn into a zone of death.

However, he knew that monsters would not gather if he did not become bait, so he became bait on purpose.

It was also a target that he could throw because he knew he wouldn’t die from the wind and thunderstorm anyway.

‘There is always a way in strategy to take the enemy’s life while sacrificing a part of myself.’

Ganghu smiled in remorse.

There is really no end to strategies and brain battles.

And the pleasure of luring stupid people and killing them all at once… was the most thrilling.

So much so that no other pleasure can come close to it. Perhaps it is a pleasure that is greater than sexual.
