Kill The Hero – Chapter 266 – Return (1)
Translator: Seven
Editor: Ana_Banana
Kim Woo-jin, who had hunted the Nine Tailed Fox before returning to the past had added a list of requirements that were to deal with this monster in his dungeon report .
First, the power to deal with at least 1,000 Foxfires in a short period of time was absolutely necessary .
Second, the ability to detect the Nine Tailed Fox’s location when it summoned Foxfires once again .
Third, the ability to identify and attack its real body, and not the body of its alter ego .
Fourth, the ability to track the Nine Tailed Fox which would undoubtedly try to escape .
Fifth, the ability to cut off all of the Nine Tailed Fox’s tails during the pursuit .
Before returning to the past, these were the steps Kim Woo-jin led his teammates through in order to hunt the Nine Tailed Fox .
Especially the fifth . Kim Woo-jin had finally managed to cut off all of the Nine Tailed Fox’s tails after fourteen different skirmishes .
Using only fourteen fights to do this made everyone judge Kim Woo-jin’s attack on the Nine Tailed Fox as perfect .
However, the number of skirmishes the current Kim Woo-jin needed was only one .
[The Nine Tailed Fox has lost all of its tails . ]
Kiii!
In just a single battle, the Nine Tailed Fox could only let out a miserable cry as Kim Woo-jin cut off all of its tails .
This was a situation that could be admired for many reasons .
Of course, Kim Woo-jin didn’t feel any admiration, nor did he dwell on his recollections .
As soon as the Nine Tailed Fox let out that cry, he quickly narrowed the difference between them and sliced his sword across its throat .
The Nine Tailed Fox jumped back to avoid it, but Kim Woo-jin took another step forward, measuring the distance perfectly as he swung Excalibur .
[You have slain the Nine Tailed Fox . ]
Without any suspense, the Nine Tailed Fox, which had first lost its tails and then its head, collapsed to the ground .
“It’s finally over . ”
Lee Jin-ah, who was holding Balmung in his hand, prepared to intervene in case of any accidents, relaxed slightly as he saw this scene .
However, Kim Woo-jin was different .
Instead, he turned his head and looked around .
Then, he saw one of the Nine Tailed Fox’s tails, which he had cut off, began to give off a bright light . (TL: Do you think the author forgot what he said before? Or that I misinterpreted it?)
[The First Tail of the Nine Tailed Fox]
– Rating: Legendary
– Required Level: Level 1 or higher
– Description: The first tail of the Nine Tailed Fox . It contains mysterious power . If all nine tails are collected, one will be able to use the power of the Nine Tailed Fox .
– All defense +20%
– Grants the ability to use the skill ‘Transform’
It was the moment when he’d gathered all nine tails .
Kim Woo-jin added this tail to his inventory without hesitation .
[Collected all nine tails of the Nine Tailed Fox . ]
[You have unlocked the power of the Nine Tailed Fox . ]
The power of the Nine Tailed Fox .
Along with that notification, another window appeared in front of Kim Woo-jin’s eyes .
[Power of the Nine Tailed Fox]
– All skills of the Nine Tailed Fox’s tails can be used without consuming any magic power for 9 minutes .
It was an unexpected gain .
However, Kim Woo-jin didn’t dwell on his gains for very long .
‘Now there’s just one left . ’
Because there was now only one prey that Kim Woo-jin really wanted to hunt .
…
It was often said .
There are always ups and downs in life .
If good things happened, then bad things would happen, and if bad things happened, then good things would happen .
It was a common saying .
But it was none other than the Messiah Guild that proved to the world the truth behind those words .
[The Messiah Guild successfully clears the 8 Floor dungeon!]
[The Messiah Guild slays the Orc Lord!]
After the terrorist attack on the Saviour Guild, the Messiah Guild didn’t give up their attack on the 8 Floor dungeon, Orc Lord’s Kingdom, and brought hope to the world once again .
[Lee Se-jun becomes the first player to conquer 8 Floors!]
[Lee Se-jun writes his own legend!]
It was the moment that Lee Se-jun became the first to clear an 8 Floor dungeon .
-In the end, Lee Se-jun is the only hero who can save the world .
-Lee Se-jun was the only saviour from the start .
-Right, in the end, only the Messiah Guild can save the world .
At the same time, it was the moment when Lee Se-jun had once again taken the seat of the world’s one and only Saviour .
In other words, no one had any more expectations .
[Isaac Ivanov’s party’s attack still in progress!]
[Isaac is still alive!]
They believed that Isaac Ivanov was still alive, but also that his chances of returning were virtually zero .
-Sooner or later, we’ll receive news about Isaac Ivanov’s obituary .
-It’s over .
With the saying in mind, after receiving good news, the world was prepared to once again receive bad news .
Then, on April 1, Isaac Ivanov told them .
[Isaac Ivanov successfully clears the dungeon!]
[Isaac Ivanov once again creates a miracle!]
That his tale was not yet over .
…
The Dragon Slayer once said .
“The odds of Isaac Ivanov succeeding are the same as the game suddenly ending . ”
Trinity of the Great One Guild said .
“No matter how amazing the hunting dog is, there’s no way it can hunt a bear on its own . That’s why we work together . The dungeons also know this fact, that’s why they set a maximum number of entries . ”
Park Yong-wan, who had become the temporary Master of the Saviour Guild also said .
“I can only pray earnestly for his return . ”
These were some of the players who knew more about dungeons than anyone else in the world .
And they told everyone that Isaac Ivanov could not return safely from the 8 Floor dungeon .
It was impossible .
Their reasoning was also so valid that no one dared to refute it .
[Isaac Ivanov returns!]
So when this news came out, no one in the world was really surprised .
No, it could be said that they paid no attention to it at all .
-Someone is making jokes again .
-Is this an April Fool’s joke?
-It’s a very disgusting joke .
Since it was April 1, most people in the world dismissed it as a cruel April Fool’s joke made by someone .
The same was true for the media .
“Isaac Ivanov came out of the dungeon?”
“I’m not sure who came up with it, but either way, they’re crazy . Even if it’s April Fool’s, such jokes are dangerous . ”
“It’s ridiculous . ”
“It would’ve been more believable if they said that a meteoroid was on a collision course with Earth . ”
“And Nasa is training an oil rig drilling team to blow up the meteoroid . ”
Despite the fact that it was potentially the biggest breaking news they ever received, no one paid attention to this .
Perhaps by chance, there were still a few who wanted to confirm the authenticity of the information, something that was incredibly rare .
In other words, there were still a few of them .
A few reporters, some of them even using their smartphones, searched around with a ‘there’s nothing to lose’ mentality .
With this in mind, they entered Youtube and checked Isaac Ivanov’s live streaming channel .
Of course, the thoughts of these reporters were the same .
‘It must be a lie . ’
‘Who came up with this nonsense?’
‘I knew someone would do something like this . ’
That what they were doing was completely meaningless .
It was no different than searching on the ground after hearing someone said they lost a 10 carat diamond ring .
“Uh?”
“Huh?”
“What’s going on?”
However, if you were to think about it conversely, if you were to search on the ground, you might become the person who found the diamond .
‘They are preparing a live broadcast . ’
‘Isaac Ivanov’s channel is active!’
And the reporters, who unexpectedly discovered a treasure, could not help but shout out .
‘This is a scoop!’
‘Oh my God!’
They moved quickly to become the main characters to release this breaking news .
These few journalists and netizens around the world began to take action .
And through them, this news resonated throughout the world .
[Isaac Ivanov is back!]
-Isaac Ivanov is back!
The hero that would save the world was back!
…
In Oh Se-chan’s office, All of the employees were gathered in front of a monitor .
“How many people have connected?”
Oh Se-chan, who was standing among them, asked this question to the employee sitting with a mouse and keyboard in front of him .
The subordinate answered the question with a stiff expression .
“Youtube isn’t showing us the numbers . ”
“What’s that supposed to mean?”
“They informed us that this was not an event that should be used to break records, I could only agree . ”
A large number of people would most assuredly watch the broadcast so the number of views was not something that needed to be recorded .
“The number shouldn’t be displayed…”
No one disagreed with this fact .
‘Right, it’s worthy of such a decision . ’
‘This is a historical event . ’
Because they were certain that this live broadcast after Isaac Ivanov’s successful dungeon attack would definitely go down in history .
Not only would it be written into the history of mankind, but the future generations learning about the past would certainly be told about this day .
It was a tale that was not lacking in inspiration .
“What the hell are you talking about? We need the numbers to calculate the donations and use them for business later . ”
Of course, Oh Se-chan was different .
“Hey, really . I should have made a website instead of using Youtube . I bet they won’t even collect any donations for this . ”
His dissatisfaction made his subordinates completely speechless .
“Ah . ”
Then the broadcast started .
And Isaac Ivanov’s face appeared on the screen .
“They cleared it!”
“The attack was successful!”
Everyone cheered at this fact .
It was the moment that the thought that it could be a trick or something Isaac Ivanov prepared before he died, disappeared .
They weren’t the only ones .
-It’s Isaac!
-It’s not a last testament broadcast!
-I’m so happy, the Saviour has returned!
The chat window beside the broadcast was filled with cheers .
The entire world began to cheer and praise like they were competing with each other .
The world was filled with joy .
-I’m so happy to be able to interact with you like this once again .
And in such pandemonium, Isaac Ivanov started speaking .
And as a result, the world gradually calmed down as everyone began to pay attention to Isaac Ivanov .
In such a situation, Isaac Ivanov said .
-First, I’d like to deal with the traitor .
At that moment, the atmosphere around the world changed .
“Traitor?”
“What does he mean?”
Oh Se-chan’s subordinates couldn’t help but be surprised when they heard Isaac Ivanov’s unexpected statement .
They, who were closer to Isaac Ivanov than anyone else, were the most perplexed .
-A traitor? What is he talking about?
-Was there a traitor? No way, were they behind this terrorist attack?
-Wait, doesn’t that mean Isaac Ivanov knows who the traitor is? How?
Isaac Ivanov’s words caused numerous questions to appear in the minds of his audience .
It was at this time that Isaac Ivanov turned the camera, allowing them to see a man bound to a chair .
“Kim Woo-jin?”
“Kim Woo-jin!”
This man was none other than Kim Woo-jin .
‘What’s going on? He looks injured . ’
‘Was he tortured?’
The appearance of Kim Woo-jin, who was bound tightly, showed signs of torture, or something similar to it .
Everyone became shocked when they saw this .
Even the constantly flowing chat at the side froze .
In this situation, Isaac Ivanov’s voice came from behind the camera .
-Kim Woo-jin, why did you betray me?
(TL:… I was not expecting that…)
