Sword's Suggestion (1)

[Chun Yoo-seong requested a video call.]

[Are you sure you want to accept it?]

A familiar name appeared on the screen.

Jinhyuk dragged the call indicator on the screen.

Hey, were you alive?

The demons wouldn't have been quite formidable... .

It seems that the swordsman was also on the top.

You bastard! Do you know how much trouble I've been through all night because of you! I couldn't even sleep to deal with those leech bastards!

Cheon Yoosung raised his voice.

I know. But I did it all for you. You're good at everything else, but you don't have enough face-to-face combat experience.

Hey, say that!

Besides, I want to tell you about the word gyokjisaji. I'm sure you've learned what it feels like to be chased by a leech.

Seriously... After you die, you will surely go to Hell.

Ummm. That seems hard to deny.

If I divide good and evil, perhaps, I will be closer to evil.

If I had to choose between Heaven and Hell, I think Hell would be more interesting.

by the way.

It doesn't look like you're calling me to swear. What do you want?

If you were really going to get revenge for something about demons, you wouldn't have talked like this.

He must have come and wielded the sword himself.

Having fought more than 100 times over the years, Jinhyuk understood the character Cheon Yuseong better than anyone else.

You're too quick to notice. Actually, I have one thing to suggest to you.

Isn't the first thing you brought up the story of Mine to prevent you from rejecting the offer?

Think of it.

Okay. Let's hear the story first.

Jinhyuk nodded his head.

Then, Cheon Yoosung opened his mouth.

"In an hour, the Awakened Association will hold an event. Players who have been judged AA or higher, including myself, are supposed to gather and hold a ball."

This is so... .

It's a prom.

The times are good. The boss attack is still failing, so the association is holding a ball?

"That's why we hold it."

what?

"People are feeling anxious due to successive failures, and the public trust of the association and guild is about to decline. So, this ball is meant to show how strong and reliable the players can be."

Hmm. There is a point.

Sparring of players with colorful and diverse abilities.

Raids hunting monsters often came out through the view tube, but the opportunity to see the battle between players was rare.

It's definitely not a bad way to release the bloated tension.

Just like the Roman emperors in the past satisfied the masses through the Colosseum.

yes what

I understand the intention.

What does that have to do with me? I didn't get a grade AA or higher?

The winner of the ball is given the right to choose one of two options. Choose one of the replicas of the relics in the National Museum of Korea...

Cheon Yoosung's voice was low.

something feels strong

Or get a nomination right to apply for sparring against a player who did not participate in the ball.

shit.

Why is the ominous feeling never wrong?

Jinhyuk pressed his finger on his temple.

"Are you going to fight me?"

Killing you is the only reason I climb the tower. It would be great if it was in front of everyone watching.

Wow. Guess who isn't a fighter.

Hit a wish once.

Maybe the real middle school bottle is what that guy has.

But, isn't that enough if I refuse? Is that the right to point or what?

Of course, that's fine. Rejection may brand you a coward, but if you don't mind it, it doesn't matter.

"Then, I can say no. I hate being bothered more than stigma."

thank God. There's a hole in the back that you can get out of.

It was time for Jinhyuk to breathe a sigh of relief.

No, you can't refuse.

Cheon Yoosung took out a black ticket from his inner pocket.

It was a ticket that looked unusual at first glance, with golden letters and holograms embedded in it.

What is that?

This is an invitation from the black market. With this, you can participate in the auction in Las Vegas tomorrow at midnight.

...!?

At Cheon Yu-seong's words, Jin-hyuk's eyes narrowed.

yea that's the way it is

Invitations to auctions hosted by Black Market are not easily available even if you want to.

There are only rumors that it can only be obtained by passing very difficult conditions.

The exact method of acquisition was not known.

but saving it

'Didn't you bring something too appetizing for a bait?'

Unlike the 'coin exchange' that players can use, cash is the main currency, so it was a pretty attractive opportunity for those with a lot of cash.

All of the items that come up for auction would be worth using.

Three days later, there were items needed to attack the 4th floor.

If it was an auction house, I would be able to obtain much better ones.

"Instead, if you don't win, will the tickets be given away for free?"

Don't worry. It won't happen.

Cheon Yoosung put the ticket back into his inner pocket.

And added a word.

Come in the best condition. Because I don't want to hear excuses about losing because I'm tired.

The video call ended there.

Until the very end, leaving behind a manly word.



On the way from the first basement floor to the Awakened Association.

Jinhyuk finished the work he couldn't do underground.

'54 points... .'

Seeing this makes me feel for sure.

How madly they hunted in one day.

Besides, the corners of Jinhyuk's lips turned upwards with the unique abilities and skills written in it.

In particular, the newly acquired 'Ice Sculpture' and 'Daylight'

And 'Judgment of Anubis' will have endless uses in the future.

crazy

There was nothing to say other than that he was crazy about the growth rate that was incomparable to others.

Jinhyuk's eyes turned to the stats again.

'Stats should be raised evenly, focusing on things that have not been invested so far.'

It's not that the specialized type is bad, but in order to cope in a variety of environments, it was better to exceed the minimum standard for other stats as well.

The higher the tower, the more anomalous climate and monsters appeared.

[Strength increases from 8 to 16.]

[Agility increases from 8 to 16.]

[Health increases from 8 to 16.]

8 points were invested in all three stats.

Then where... .

Jinhyuk grabbed a stone that had fallen on the floor.

and gave it a light touch.

Ududuk.

A stone split in two.

The grip has definitely changed. Thanks to the increased agility, the senses of the whole body were also more sharply captured.

'I will be able to feel the stamina when the battle is prolonged, so I'll have to watch it a bit more.'

That was when I was thinking.

[[Congratulations! The video you uploaded is 'HOT issue']

You have been selected as a video.]

A golden status window appeared in front of me.

Five.

Have you already been through word of mouth?

I thought it would take a little more time, but since the content is the content, it seems to have spread much faster than I expected.

Jinhyuk quickly clicked on the video.

He, Patrick, Teresa, and other rankers of the large guild were seen wearing masks.

Of course, Mine had been properly edited.

Because the purpose of this video was not to undermine the image of the guild.

And even if you didn't attract aggro like that, the reaction was already explosive.

-Helen is crying: You are going to the boss without pay, and that alone. Is this real?

-Noisy and panties: Wow. I thought it was just my skills, but I'm tired of my personality.

-Become Orun: Dog is cool. It's purely thinking of people and taking risks.

-kd1004: Are all the rankers watching? watch and learn This is Noblesse Obli.

-Yasuo Science: But is it possible to defeat the boss solo?

- Nonsense Reader: If someone else had said something like that, I would have put a double insult, but looking at the achievements that that player has shown so far, I think that it might be really possible.

-Song Ga-in confiscated for 2 weeks: ㅇj. Somehow, I feel confident.

-Dimian Peter: Older brother. Reveal your face only once. Seriously, I'll only upload the number of views of hyung's video.

-Hulk to Hulk: 222222

-Squirrel Thunder: 33333

Again, the reaction was as expected.

A player in the topic that everyone was curious about wrapped in a veil.

Since such a talented person confidently declared the boss attack, the atmosphere is bound to heat up.

As if to support that statement, it had been a long time since the number of hitters flew through the roof into the sky.

[Views: 50,536,988]

Considering that non-tower residents can only watch the video once a day, the 50 million views was a shocking figure.

If you give 100 coins for every 10,000 views, 50 million is 500,000 coins.

There, I was able to get 50,000 coins because I took off 90% of it as a fee.

'If it wasn't for the crazy provision of taking 90% of the commission, you'd be earning 500,000 coins... .'

I'm sorry, but I can't help it.

Because this was common to all players around the world.

'Still, 50,000 coins is enough to turn your eyes around.'

In Korea, there is nothing to compare.

Even popular overseas rankers would not have been able to collect 10,000 coins, let alone 50,000.

Even heavy users who upload videos every day only get hundreds to thousands of views per video.

'Let's collect the coins well.'

Jinhyeok, who received the payment excluding the fee, stopped walking.

While processing a number of tasks, he had arrived at his destination.



The main gate of the Awakened Association.

Cheon Yooseong was seen wearing a black suit.

What's that guy wearing today called Sparring?

Hopefully, I'm not mistaken for a fighting ball and a dancing ball.

While Jin-hyeok shook his head, Cheon Yoo-seong also found Jin-hyeok.

You're late.

Cheon Yoosung raised one eye.

His face was full of anger, as if he had waited for quite a long time.

It's late. We still have one minute left until our appointment.

Jinhyuk shrugged.

At the same time, he scanned the top and bottom of Cheonyuseong with his eyes.

'You've become much stronger than when we met at the ruins.'

A sharply sharpened aura.

The body was also strengthened.

Indeed, it is understandable that you want to try again.

Since he has grown remarkably, he must have thought that he could win this time.

However.

Contrary to the wishes of Cheonyuseong, the gap was not narrowed in the slightest.

On the contrary, it happened even more than then.

'I'm sorry, what should I do?'

Even if we spend the same time... . And even if you try to die the same way, the result does not change.

Because the quality of the information they have between the two is so different.

But right then.

What is it? Were you the one who was shivering about what it was like to be heavenly? Did you sleep too much than you thought?

A man with a muscle that seemed to explode to the point where he felt pity for his suit approached.

A tattoo on a man's neck.

It's a known tattoo.

'Oh.'

Jinhyuk let out a small exclamation.

This is going to be a pretty interesting spectacle.
