The Player Hides His Past - Chapter 4

Episode 4. Demon hunter (1)

dubious.

‘Do demons appear like this in real life?’

…How come 10 years have passed and there is no progress?

Because the current development was similar to the demon hunter’s quest.

But the moment the message came to my mind, I was convinced.

The devil took over Nam Cheol-min’s body.

In an instant, information about the community came to mind.

-The real devils are the problem

-The level is high, but the more difficult is the status abnormality

-Mage and priest classes have high mental power, so they endure, but warriors like us are only real punching bags without buffs or potions. Certainly,

real devils are tricky monsters was

10 years ago.

There is no law that I will be the same as the demons I encountered on the quest.

But I knew

That I cannot indulge in such private judgments before the devil.

『Granfell Cloudy Arpheus Romeo’s pride ironically rises the most in front of the devil.』

Yes, what kind of devil is the demon possessed by Nam Cheol-min?

how many levels are there?

I don’t know what status ailment it causes.

Again—

but my vision was clearer than ever.

There was not the slightest hesitation in walking straight.

At this moment of encountering the devil, I spoke in a cold voice.

“As expected, you are the devil.”

The audience was stunned by my declaration.

Choi Jeong-hoon stuttered.

I took turns looking at Nam Chul-min and me, then took a backward step.

“What do you mean by that? Are you a demon?”

“Demons…!! It also felt ominous.”

“Wait a minute, we can’t really deal with demons…?!”

In that shock, Cheol-Min Nam.

No, the devil laughed.

“Ha ha ha ha ha! I’ll figure it out soon, you assholes!!”

The devil seemed to enjoy this situation.

it will be fun

Because human negative emotions become the power of the devil.

“You humans are. You’re soooo~ It’s pretentious.”

But I had no heart to listen to that boast.

“It’s degrading.”

A silver dagger was in my hand.

“In the first place, I don’t know if there is such a thing as dignity for inferior people like demons.”

Of course, there were obvious wounds even to the devil.

That’s exactly what I’m tired of listening to while carrying out job transfer quests in Akkshan.

lower intermediate upper level.

Above that, there are the ‘devils of the true name’, and further up, the ‘demon kings’ claiming to be the kings of demons…

But as I said.

『No devil’s temptations and trials of deception can even damage the lofty pride of Grandfel.』

Grandfel.

In other words, everyone was just the same devil to me.

So there was no hesitation in my actions.

[The skill ‘Relationship with the Natural Enemy’ is activated.]

───────

Relation with the Natural Enemy: Fighting power increases dramatically when fighting demons.

───────

Now that the natural enemy relationship has been activated.

My physical abilities had risen dramatically.

Shuk-!

concisely and quickly.

He thrust the dagger into Nam Cheol-min’s neck.

Ting-!

Is it really plate armor?

I didn’t know you could defend the nape gap.

A voice with a hint of bewilderment was heard.

“…ha ha ha! Are you crazy? Aren’t you a bigger kid than me? Why don’t you just swing a knife when you’ve been on good terms? What the fuck is this bastard…?!”

But I didn’t allow it.

“Don’t try to talk to me.”

“…what what?!”

“I do not mix the horse with the prey.”

Shuk-!

It was impossible to pierce the plate armor with a silver dagger.

‘Then it would be right to aim for that seam.’

In front of the devil, I was moving by instinct.

I could feel that the ability of the body and the rotation of the brain were definitely on a different level than when dealing with play.

Puff-!

A silver dagger was thrust into his inner elbow.

[The skill ‘Exorcism’ is activated.]

‘I don’t know how far the effect of Exorcism will be effective, but it doesn’t matter.’

The meaning of the message was simple.

It was said that I had dealt a valid blow to the devil.

The demon was startled and pushed back a few steps.

“crazy!! It’s silver!!! what the fuck are you doing?”

Instead of answering, he swung his dagger again.

Seams on the flanks.

seams of the knee.

And even a small gap at the nape of the neck.

Crying—

black blood poured from those wounds.

the devil said

“Crazy bastard… can’t you see it’s bleeding?! That’s when this bastard really dies. If you kill me, this guy will die too!! No, I will die with this bastard no matter what. Do you think I will die alone?!”

I laughed inwardly in delight.

‘How are the lines the same as they were 10 years ago?’

yeah don’t be fooled

While the skill [Exorcism] is active, the demon hunter’s attack only deals damage to demons.

No matter how old it is, the basic common sense has not been forgotten.

I.

But on my face.

There was no reflection of the inside.

“The prey only needs to be hunted.”

Puff-!

*

“Hyung, don’t push yourself too hard. Avoid dangerous cracks as much as possible.”

“okay. child.”

“No kidding. The atmosphere of the fort is hideous. So that’s what I’m saying… Why don’t you just join our guild? There are so many things you can do as a player without going through the rifts. Why are you an analyst?”

I just didn’t want to live a bad life.

“Anyway, they’re brothers, but they’re a little different.”

“Shouldn’t I do my best to avoid ruining my brother’s face?”

“Taemin said the boss raid was successful again? Say congratulations.”

I just didn’t want to cause trouble to my younger brother who was better than my older brother.

Nam Cheol-min thought as he watched himself move freely.

‘…Where did it go wrong?’

From the moment I entered the rift, my memory was hazy.

However, the message that came to mind was clearly remembered.

[A low-class demon imp is watching you.]

[Spirit is too low.]

[Status Abnormality: Possession occurs.]

‘…Im?’

A level 200 Demon-Type monster Imp.

Nam Cheol-min was well aware of the danger of the demons.

It was because there were things he had seen and heard from his younger brother, Nam Tae-min.

Nam Chul-min gritted his teeth.

‘You can’t go in! It’s annihilation!’

But no voice came out.

‘…Okay another party. If you get help from another party!’

Words that had nothing to do with his will came out.

“But there is no need to worry. Maybe it’s because this is a transfer station, so it’s pretty big, right? If you choose your route well, you should be able to hunt without overlapping with other parties.”

Literally, he was driving the party members to death.

“Chul-min hyung! no brother!!”

continued outbursts.

In the end, Choi Jeong-hoon and other party members were surrounded by a group of Nolls.

‘It’s because of me. because of me…!!’

Move.

please move

I need help.

However, Nam Chul-min could not move even a single step.

I had no choice but to stand and stare.

“No fuck. Why are you doing this!! Hey Nam Cheol-min!!”

It was all his own fault.

It was my own lack of ability.

Nam Chul-min’s heart began to break down from helplessness.

‘…Taemin, I guess I really had to do what you said.’

And that was what the imp had hoped for.

Nam Cheol-min let go of the string of consciousness he was barely holding on to.

All I could hear was a faint voice.

“Hey Nam Cheol-min! Did you really think that something had happened since I called hyung hyung and followed you around? Fuck my younger brother or a bastard who is not a dick…”

Yes, Choi Jeong-hoon was right.

He was the only one who could do that.

“ha ha ha. Ha ha ha ha ha.”

After that, all I heard was laughter.

The imp’s laughter sounded as if it were laughing at its own weakness.

But the laughter that seemed to never stop stopped.

“As expected, you are the devil.”

…Are you aware of the existence of demons? how?

At those words, Nam Chul-min grabbed the string of consciousness again.

Then an unbelievable sight came into view.

‘…overwhelming the imp?’

It was an unbelievable situation.

The reason why demons are difficult isn’t just because of their high level.

It was because the demons frequently caused status abnormalities.

[Fear] [Despair] [Despair]

.

Or even that, the level gap is so overwhelming that it needs to be ignored.

‘…But what is this man?’

I couldn’t believe it even though I was watching it.

this wasn’t a fight

Yes, it was as the man said.

It was a one-sided ‘hunt’.

The imp’s cry rang in Nam Cheol-min’s ears.

Nam Cheol-min thought.

‘…If the imp dies, I will die too?’

then i will die

Nam Cheol-min made up his mind.

Party members fell into limbs because of him.

Even if you said your body was stolen by an imp, that wouldn’t be an excuse.

I heard that the devil preys on the weak.

Even that was his own fault.

‘Shouldn’t I have to pay for the meal even if I die?’

Isn’t that right, Jung Hoon? Taemin?

Fortunately, the man didn’t seem to have the slightest hesitation.

‘Unfortunately, there’s no way to repay the favor.’

It was the moment Nam Chul-min thought so.

Puff-!

At the same time as the man’s dagger was inserted into the nape of his neck.

I felt like something was leaving my body.

Kkuk–

…For some reason, I opened my eyes.

“…?”

Soon the ceiling of the subway was visible.

The flickering light bulb was shining.

Bright enough to dazzle and frown.

A voice came from among them.

“Didn’t you tell me?”

It was a very relaxed and

dignified voice.

“I have you, so you have nothing to worry about.”

*

[You have killed the lower demon ‘Imp’.]

[Your level has risen.]

[Your level has risen.]

[Your level has risen.]…

Your level has risen.

When I counted the number of messages, there were 12 in total.

I caught only one imp, but it was a whopping 12 levels.

what is this. Is it real?

I remembered the battle with the imp.

It was to gauge the level of the imp who was literally pouring out experience points.

But no matter how much I thought about it, I couldn’t understand it.

‘I’d rather have a more difficult opponent than the imp.’

Gnoll’s level was only around level 30.

What that means then is simple.

‘…I said that high expectations lead to great disappointment.’

This has already far exceeded my expectations, right?

Apparently, the ‘natural enemy relationship’ between the demon hunter and the demons was much stronger than I expected.

‘Is it because it’s a lower level devil?’

To the extent that it is impossible to go against the halfway gap.

The message didn’t stop there.

[The mastery of the skill ‘Silver Mastery’ increases.]

───────

Silver Mastery (24%): Adds additional attack power and special effects to silver weapons.

───────

Thanks to defeating an imp with a silver dagger, his skill proficiency increased significantly.

The mastery that was 19% suddenly became 24%.

Unfortunately the imp didn’t drop the item.

But I didn’t feel any regret.

Maybe it’s because he gained a lot of experience instead.

If that’s not the case, it’s probably because of the setting of Grandfel, who doesn’t cling to rich movies.

I couldn’t figure it out.

‘Rather than that.’

Anyway, it was more important to keep what I said.

“Didn’t I tell you? With me, you have nothing to worry about.”

…because if I couldn’t keep it, I would have died of shame.

I’ve definitely learned through experience.

That my actions, covered with the dark history of Grand Fel, could not be corrected.

Even in moments of life-and-death crisis.

His upright head proved him.

So that means I have no choice but to adapt.

Fortunately, my adaptability seemed to be pretty good.

“Hehehe. thank you really. This favor I must…!”

“Are you okay bro? Seriously, how the hell did this happen…”

“Whoa. Fortunately, the. really.”

“and. oh my god…!!”

The burdensome gazes pouring down on me.

Those eyes that seemed to look up.

I was accepting it casually.

As if such a reaction was natural.

I just thought

‘It’s cheap.’

Isn’t it for nothing that

it is said that young people these days have no manners ?
