The players gathered behind one of the larger boulders on the boulder filled mountain . The number of players there was 141 .
But none of them made a sound .
Krrrr .
The sound of the lion snoring from a distance was so loud that they suffocated .
Most of the players were standing there in a daze .
‘I didn’t think the Golden Lion would be such a monster . ’
The merciless violence that was showcased by the lion had left such an impression on them .
He had completely crushed the will of even the players than had come prepared to die .
‘It’s impossible to kill him . ’
‘It’s over . ’
Most of them gathered there were already convinced that it was impossible for them to hunt the Golden Lion .
“First…”
Then someone opened their mouth .
The name of the speaker was Kim Hyeon, leader of the players that the Messiah Guild had sent into the dungeon .
“No one is against the fact that everyone has to work together right?”
She addressed the crowd .
Everyone had to work together . This was something that was actually difficult to hear .
The Messiah Guild was such a closed group that they basically considered anyone outside of their guild as an enemy .
However now they were the ones who suggested that everyone work together as a group .
The violence shown by the Golden Lion had completely destroyed their closed mentality .
“Right . ”
Of course, no one voiced any opposition to the Messiah Guild’s suggestion .
“We have to work together . ”
“It’s crazy to split up and take turns against a monster like that . ”
Only one man among the group disagreed .
“I refuse . ”
Isaac Ivanov expressed his rejection of the Messiah Guild’s suggestion in english .
His words once again caused silence to fall over the group .
Krrrr…
The sound of the lion snoring could be heard once again .
The silence lasted a long time . This was because no one could truly understand the situation .
Against it was Kim Hyeon’s job to break the silence .
“For what reason?”
Isaac Ivanov responded to her question quite calmly .
“Chun Dao-ming attacked me for the items in my possession . ”
Isaac Ivanov, who was speaking, began looking around .
“And there are two more groups with the same intentions as Chun Dao-ming . ”
The eyes of the group also followed the direction that Isaac Ivanov was looking .
So everyone’s eyes turned to look at the groups from the Great One Guild and the Amazon Guild . (TL: how convenient that they were together)
The two groups stiffened because of the gazes .
“H-, how did you kn-, know?”
One of the group unwittingly exposed them .
“Hup!”
It was a mistake .
Usually, mistakes like this could never occur, but because of the overwhelming fear and pressure that was placed upon them by the Golden Lion such a mistake had appeared at an unfortunate time .
Of course, it was not a mistake that could be tolerated .
“Ah! W-, wait!”
It was already too late for him to make any excuses for his slip up .
The gaze of those looking at them had already cooled down .
Among them, Kim Hyeon’s gaze was beyond cold .
“Hush . ”
Kim Hyeon silenced the one who was trying to make excuses with a fierce gaze before looking back toward Isaac Ivanov .
She gestured for him to say what else he wanted to say .
Isaac calmly replied to the gesture .
“I have no intentions of being on a team with a group who are targeting me . ”
It was a valid statement and everyone nodded .
‘As expected . ’
‘That’s fair . ’
It was relatively common for players to target others for their items, everyone knew that .
More than a few of those who were nodding now would have done the same thing, given the chance .
But there wasn’t a single person who thought it was a good thing to do .

So of course if such an intention was revealed, there would be consequences .
That’s why everyone agreed with Isaac Ivanov’s opinion .
“That’s why I don’t have any intention to save their lives . ”
“Huh?”
But as Isaac Ivanov said those words, there was no one who dared to nod .
“Wh, what?”
“W-, wait! So Isaac, you have a way to hunt that monster?”
Kim Hyeon once again moved to silence the group, this time because of the noise that they were making .
“Please be quiet . ”
She pointed to the Golden Lion sleeping in the distance with one hand and put the index finger of her other hand to her lips .
Everyone shut up .
In the silence, Kim Hyeon spoke again .
“Are you sure that you can hunt it?”
Isaac didn’t answer her .
“There are two option . Firstly you hunt the Golden Lion without me . ”
Instead he gave his conditions .
“The other is that I hunt the Golden Lion first . In that case, those two groups will have to pay for their lives . ”
At the proposal, Kim Hyeon turned her head to look at the members of the Great One Guild and the Amazon Guild .
Surprisingly, none of the two groups showed any expressions of worry or anger .
There was actually no reason for them to be upset .
‘If we can avoid facing a monster like that then we’d how much ever our lives cost . ’
It was not too late to worry about him after they had survived this place .
Rather, at that moment, in the eyes of the two groups, Isaac Ivanov was like a savior descended from heaven .
Kim Hyeon, who noticed their expressions, pondered the situation .
“I have no choice but to choose the second option . Does anyone have any other opinions?”
Of course there would not be any objections, so she continued immediately .
“So when are you going to fight it?”
Isaac Ivanov responded to her words in a calm voice .
“Right now . ”
“Huh?”
With those words, Isaac Ivanov turned and began walking toward the Golden Lion in the distance .

As soon as Kim Woo-jin began to advance, the other players retreated .
Now that they were alone, Lee Jin-ah approached Kim Woo-jin and asked .
“Are you sure it doesn’t have any weaknesses?”
The question reminded Kim Woo-jin of the survivor of the dungeon in his past life, Jung Ji-hoon’s story .
He’d said .
As if they were wet clothes, the players had stuck to the Golden Lion while attacking in every way they could and after a fierce and vicious battle in which they did not have any regard for their lives, they won .
There were no fatal weaknesses that they could use to overturn the situation .
“At least as far as I can tell, it has no weaknesses . The only way to kill him is to make him bleed . ”
This was why Kim Woo-jin entered this dungeon without hesitation .
“It’s not too difficult . ”
When Kim Woo-jin turned his head after saying those words he saw a Skeleton Knight riding a skeleton wolf .
Then he looked at Percival’s Spear that was held in the knight’s hand .
‘If it’s Percival’s Spear then it shouldn’t be hard to pierce its skin . ’
In front of Percival’s Spear, even the Golden Lion which had high defense would be forced to bleed .
“We just need to set the stage for the Skeleton Knight to attack as many times as possible . ”
In other words, what they needed to hunt the lion was to constantly draw it’s aggro so that the Skeleton Knight could concentrate on dealing damage .
Lee Jin-ah let out a loud sigh at those words .
“In the end, you’re telling me to go through a lot of trouble . Alright, fine . I’ll play with it . Should I take off my clothes and dance in front of the Golden Lion? While singing the Lion King theme song?”
It was a sigh lamenting the fact that he had to play a bad role again .
Kim Woo-jin gave him an answer he wasn’t expecting .
“You have a different role this time . ”
“Huh?”
Instead of answering the surprised Lee Jin-ah, Kim Woo-jin summoned the Book of the Dead, took out one of the slab like pages and summoned the sealed skeleton .
[The seal has been released . ]
And the skeleton that appeared this time was the skeleton of an Ogre .
Rattle!
Kim Woo-jin had created a skeleton from the Ogre that he had hunted in the dungeon in Taiwan .
In addition, the aura of the fully armored Ogre skeleton was not less than that of the Golden Lion .
“Woah . ”
Lee Jin-ah also voiced his admiration .
Of course, Kim Woo-jin and Lee Jin-ah knew .

“How long do you think this guy would last?”
The Ogre Skeleton would only be able to distract the lion for a certain amount of time .
But even that was an amazing feat .
The players who had faced the Golden LIon before had even been able to tie him down for a long time before they were all annihilated .
So Kim Woo-jin summoned one more thing .
“Summon Golem . ”
The Golem!
He summoned another sandbag that would be able to help them buy some more time against the Golden Lion .
Lee Jin-ah grinned when the two giants appeared .
“It’s worth a try . ”
Along with those words, Lee Jin-ah patted the leg of the Golem that had just been summoned .
“Lemy, Skely, please take good care of me . ” (TL: Like the greeting you give to your coworkers on your first day of work)
“So what’s my role? Am I supposed to make it bleed with the Skeleton Knight?”
Kim Woo-jin’s eyes turned to look at the Heavenly Dragon Sword that was hanging at Lee Jin-ah’s waist .
In fact getting the sword here was completely unexpected, but that didn’t mean that he would exclude it from his plans .
There was no reason for him to exclude a powerful that could harm the Golden Lion together with Percival’s spear .
Therefore he was willing to actively use the Heavenly Dragon Sword .
“When I give the signal, use the Heavenly Dragon’s Will skill . ”
“Okay, and then?”
“Then, I’ll give you another signal . ”
“Right, then I can stab it?”
“No, you don’t have to . ”
“Huh?”
“When I give the signal, pass the Heavenly Dragon Sword to me . ”
“What?”
Kim Woo-jin seriously spoke to Lee Jin-ah, who still had a blank look on his face .
“I’m better at handling the sword . ”
Only then did Lee Jin-ah realise .
“Fuck really…”
The reason why Kim Woo-jin gave him the Heavenly Dragon Sword .
Leaving him behind, Kim Woo-jin put on the Grim Reaper’s Mask .
“The battle will be over in 10 minutes . ”
And so the battle began .
