‘He noticed . ’
The moment that Suzuki Eiji made a cold expression instead of one of anger toward him, told Kim Woo-jin that his plan had been noticed .
As expected by Suzuki Eiji, Kim Woo-jin did not plan to fight him here today .
The reason was quite simple .
‘It’s best to not fight a losing battle . ’
And that was because Suzuki Eiji was currently much stronger than Kim Woo-jin .
The situation was very different from the one with Yang Ji-hoo . The difference in levels between them was quite high .
Currently, Suzuki Eiji was level 55, more than 10 levels higher than Kim Woo-jin .
There was also the difference in skill and experience . It was evident from the way the Messiah Guild treated the two .
If Yang Ji-hoo had had more experience and better skills than Suzuki Eiji, then he would’ve been their Hunting Dog instead .
In the end, Suzuki Eiji was the one chosen .
‘Blood Poison doesn’t work against Lancelot’s Ring . ’
No negative effect worked against the legendary item, also called Lake’s Ring .
‘The King of Poison knew that . ’
It was the biggest reason why the King of Poison targeted the Knights of the Round Table in the past .
Lancelot’s Ring was the achilles heel of the King of Poison .
Of course, this was done intentionally by the Messiah Guild .
They had the antidote in the form of Lancelot’s Ring, so they weren’t afraid to use the weapon known as the King of Poison .
And Kim Woo-jin would never forget that fact .
Not only was Suzuki Eiji stronger than himself, but he also couldn’t use Blood Poison, which was one of his trump cards .
‘If you’ve already noticed, then it’s meaningless to stick around . ’
So Kim Woo-jin didn’t hesitate .
“Retreat!”
As Kim Woo-jin shouted his command, he immediately turned and fled into the forest along with his Skeleton Soldiers .
…
Twelve people .
This was the number of team members than Suzuki Eiji had prepared to attack the dungeon .
The number didn’t have any special meaning . It was simply the hunting dogs who had the required level of experience and alertness that was required for the dungeon .
The composition of the team was also nothing special .
Rather, with an average level of 53, their combined power was more than enough to handle this C+ rank dungeon .

However, three of the twelve were killed immediately after entering .
Shortly after, six more were killed in the battles which followed .
Nine people died in an instant and now only three of them remained .
With this situation, Suzuki Eiji concluded .
“He is a Necromancer . If we give him time we will be the ones at a disadvantage . ”
They were the ones who would be at a disadvantage in the long run .
“We have to chase after him . ”
And so Suzuki Eiji and his men began tracking down Kim Woo-jin .
It was an example of wise judgement on Suzuki Eiji’s part .
The correct answer that few were able to reach .
If he were in the same situation that Suzuki Eiji was in right now, Kim Woo-jin himself would have taken the same action .
There was just one problem .
[You have connected to a Skeleton . ]
Kim Woo-jin could use the Grim Reaper’s Mask to manipulate his tracks .
Moreover, Kim Woo-jin was the hunting dog more experienced in tracking than anyone else . A clever hunting dog who knew how to track targets, also knew what to do to interfere with tracking .
“Damn it!”
Faced with Kim Woo-jin’s hard work, Suzuki Eiji was forced to waste his time over and over again .
And he had to pay for that wasted time as if it was gold .
Kim Woo-jin once again revealed himself . This time, followed by twenty-five Skeleton Soldiers .
It had been 3 days since they’d entered the dungeon .
“Hoo . ”
The appearance of Suzuki Eiji was much calmer than one would expect given his circumstances .
However, his surroundings were anything but calm .
Boom!
Tranquility could not be found as twenty-three Skeleton Soldiers practically burning with fighting spirit .
“Hoo . ”
Nevertheless, Suzuki Eiji couldn’t appear to be even calmer as he took one deep breath after another .
And it wasn’t a bluff .
‘Death is the only thing that no one can escape from . ’
At this moment, he was intended to fight this battle like his last, prepared to die .
It was an ice cold decision .
‘There’s no reason for me to lose against this group of skeletons . ’

Over the course of losing all of his twelve men, Suzuki Eiji realised that the Skeleton Soldiers posed no threat to him .
‘It’s probably because he’s not confident he can defeat me . ’
At the same time he’d realised that the decision to remove all his subordinates in this way was also a choice made in the end only because he couldn’t defeat him on his own .
‘He’s probably thinking the same thing . ’
Finally, Suzuki Eiji knew that Kim Woo-jin’s thoughts would be exactly the same as his .
“Come out . ”
That’s why Suzuki Eiji called out for Kim Woo-jin, and in the end, he appeared .
Suzuki Eiji stared for a long time at the skull mask .
“Isaac Ivanov…no, that should be a pseudonym . Is it Kim Woo-jin?”
Kim Woo-jin didn’t respond to his question . Because he knew .
What Suzuki Eiji was doing right now wasn’t to figure out who he was, but to get inside his head .
‘Such an insane monster . ’
Suzuki Eiji grit his teeth at Kim Woo-jin who didn’t fall for his trick . He admitted that there was nothing he could gain from having a conversation .
Naturally silence fell over the two sides and in the silence, Suzuki Eiji began to simulate the upcoming battle .
‘If I attack him, the Skeleton Soldiers will block me . Then I can get rid of those skeletons . ’
This time, he intended to make use of the technique that Kim Woo-jin had used before .
‘His poison doesn’t work on me anyway, so I can go directly to him after destroying his skeletons . ’
He decided to clean up the area before he aimed at the head .
That was why he purposefully let himself be surrounded . He used himself as bait to get all the skeletons in one place .
‘The Skeleton Soldiers are no threat to me . ’
This was a decision after he had carefully tested the strength of the Skeleton Soldiers, it was not something he decided lightly .
Kim Woo-jin looked toward Suzuki Eiji who had been brimming with confidence, and said .
“The Sun’s Protection . ”
[Protection of the Sun has been activated . ]
Along with those words, the golden color of sunlight began exuding from a necklace on Kim Woo-jin’s neck .
“Aura Field . ”
And with the next spell, the golden light spread out from his body .
Seeing this, Suzuki Eiji couldn’t help but shout .
“Gawain’s Necklace!”
Boom!
The battle began with that shout .

“Hoo . ”
Kim Woo-jin, who exhaled for a long time, pulled a japanese style sword from his left thigh .
Puuk!
After the knife was pulled out, his blood flowed like a fountain . The sight of which would make any viewer cringe in pain .
“Inventory . ”
However Kim Woo-jin simply took a potion from his inventory with one hand, while applying pressure on the wound with the other hand, his expression unchanged .
Trickle!
The removed potion was then poured directly onto the wound .
However the bleeding was not so easily stopped, infact, had it been anyone else, the wound would’ve been fatal .
After consuming and using a few more potions, Kim Woo-jin managed to slow the bleeding significantly, however the wound was still open .
But Kim Woo-jin was satisfied with this amount .
‘If it wasn’t for my blood skills, I might’ve died here . ’
He could heal the wound away using some of his skills . Of course, Kim Woo-jin couldn’t actually move his body at the moment so he needed to get something to help him .
Rattle!
Then a skeleton appeared, and around that skeleton was a mountain of bones .
‘He was amazing . ’
Suzuki Eiji was truly strong .
If it wasn’t for the book of the dead and if it wasn’t for Gawain’s Necklace, Kim Woo-jin would have been the one lying dead instead at this moment .
He frowned slightly at that thought .
‘I underestimated him . ’
For Kim Woo-jin, even if it was despicable, he much preferred to have a woundless victory rather than this bloody one .
Nevertheless he’d won and it wasn’t just a victory .
Rather, this was the most valuable victory he’d had so far .
[You have connected to a Skeleton . ]
Using a Skeleton Soldier, he retrieved the most valuable item from his victory . A ring that was taken from the body of Suzuki Eiji who had the appearance of a hedgehog with arrows and swords stuck all over his body .
[Lancelot’s Ring]
Ranking: LegendaryAvailable for level 1 and higher .
Description: Lancelot’s ring is a gift from the Queen of the Lake . It has the power to protect its owner from all unclean things
+100 Magic Power when equipped .

‘The Poison King’s Achilles heel is now in my hands . ’
This item was the most valuable evidence of his victory . But that wasn’t all he’d gained from this victory .
‘The only thing left was to offer Suzuki Eiji as a sacrifice to Oh Se-chan . ’
Giving Suzuki Eiji’s identity to Oh Se-chan .
Of course, Kim Woo-jin did not forget .
[Eye of Anubis has been activated . ]
That his hunt had yet to truly start .
