Chapter 204
“You came back sooner than I thought . ” Hugo greeted Hyeonu while his eyes were focused on Tang-E .
Tang-E had to be a child that Hugo saw every day, so Hyeonu thought it was amazing to see him so obsessed with Tang-E every time .
‘Will I have a child later?’ Hyeonu thought .
Shaking off his thoughts, he revealed his purpose for coming to Bung Bung Island . “Hugo, are you in a position to represent the Marionette Bears?”
“Why are you asking this?” Hugo’s eyes widened with surprise at Hyeonu’s unexpected question .
Hyeonu smiled at Hugo and started to repeat the same explanation he gave to Raccoon and Edchan . “Do you know about the existence of the barrier in the Balder Mountains that is blocking the West and East Continents?”
“Is it the one made by the dragons? I know it already . ”
“Since you know, this story will be quick . Adventurers want a trade agreement to be established between the West Continent and the East Continent . The barrier is naturally in the way . It prevents movements to the East Continent . The dragons said they can get rid of this barrier . ”
“The dragons agreed to get rid of the barrier? Really?” Hugo asked again with disbelief .
“Do you want to see it?” Hyeonu then showed Hugo the video of Raccoon and Edchan .
“This?” Hugo smiled as a familiar orc showed up in the crystal ball . He never imagined that Raccoon would shoot this type of video . Raccoon was an orc after all, and orcs were faithful to their emotions .
“The last one is you, Hugo . To be precise, I need the consent of the representative of the Marionette Bears . The dragon’s condition is to get the consent of three races,” Hyeonu said .
“I’m the last one? Then I should introduce myself properly . I am Hugo, the ruler of Bung Bung Island, the leader of the Marionette Bears, and Tang-E’s father . ” Hugo formally introduced himself .
He was the ruler of Bung Bung Island, the leader of the Marionette Bears, and Tang-E’s father . Hyeonu felt that Hugo had deliberately accentuated the last title .
‘Obviously, Hugo likes the title of Tang-E’s father the most . ’
“Hugo, do you agree?” Hyeonu wondered in a voice full of anticipation .
The quest would be over as long as Hugo agreed . Tomorrow was Friday and the day of the stream . All of Hyeonu’s plans would be ruined if he didn’t finish the quest today .
“Of course, I will . Just . . . ” The quest clearly seemed to be over, but Hugo was trying to add something .
“Just?”
“There is a condition . I would like you to go to the cave once more . . . ”
“I understand . I’m going . ”
A deal was established between Hyeonu and Hugo .
***
‘I just need to put up with it once . Just once . ’
Hyeonu sighed after entering the cave and tried to control his mind . There was no guarantee that the lomelon would appear again . It wasn’t necessary to be disgusted so early . This was how he comforted himself . However, it was just Hyeonu’s hopeless wish .
Thump thump thump!
A familiar sound reached Hyeonu through the cave .
‘Damn . ’
“Tang-E, buff me . I have to finish it as quickly as possible,” Hyeonu urged Tang-E to give him the buffs .
[You have received Bear’s Momentum . ]
[Physique has increased . ]
[Strength has increased . ]
[You have received the Forest’s Blessing . ]
[Defense has increased . ]
[Health will continue to recover . ]
[You have received Breath of the Wind . ]
[Your agility has risen . ]
[Your movement speed has increased . ]
“I understand . I’ll give you the buffs and hide . It is dangerous,” Tang-E said .
The lomelon wasn’t a dangerous monster at all . It was a monster that had been killed easily in the previous hunt, so Tang-E had no reason to hide if it was for his safety . Instead, the reason why he wanted to hide was actually the lomelon’s terrible appearance . . .
“Where are you going to hide? Use some magic from behind . Don’t you need to improve your skills?” Hyeonu quickly grabbed Tang-E who was trying to flee .

“Ahh! Let go . Damn master dude! I don’t want to see the monster . Ugly monster! It’s scary!!”
However, Hyeonu received the buffs and had the strength to endure Tang-E’s struggle .
“Do your best if you don’t want to see the monster . Otherwise, you’ll have to look at it for a long time . There are also many things in the world that you dislike but you have to do, Tang-E . ” Hyeonu gave Tang-E a short tip about the way the world worked .
‘Giant’s Origin . ’
[Giant’s Origin has been used . ]
[Your strength stat has increased . ]
Hyeonu used the most effective giant skill, which increased his strength stat in proportion to his magic power and physique stats . Hyeonu’s physique stat was 2,091, and his magic power stat was 2,193 . Once Giant’s Origin was added, his strength stat was a huge 4,284 . His strength stat had more than doubled using just one skill . There was a time limit of just five minutes .
‘I’ll finish it at once . I won’t hold back anything . ’
Hyeonu was prepared when an ugly giant appeared on the other side of the cave . It was a six-meter-tall monster with dark skin and muscles .
This was the ugly lomelon, a low-grade demonic creature .
“Kuooh!” The moment the lomelon showed up, it screamed and rushed at Hyeonu . Most of the players would’ve been logged out by the CC and charge combo .
[You have been exposed to the spirit of the low-grade demonic creature, the lomelon . ]
[The influence of fighting energy has allowed you to ignore the spirit of the low-grade lomelon . ]
However, Hyeonu had previously ignored the lomelon’s fear . Now that his stats had gone up, the lomelon’s fear had no more effect on him . Hyeonu resisted the lomelon’s fear and activated his skills .
[Master of Combat is activated . ]
[Your stats have increased . ]
[The stat ‘fighting energy’ has caused your stats to rise . ]
[The other party is stronger than you . ]

‘One minute . I can see the end in this period of time . ’
Hyeonu frowned at the ugly appearance of the lomelon and drew the Mysterious Sky Sword without delay . That was an expression of his desire to not look at this creature’s face any longer . It was the same with Tang-E . Tang-E had been too flustered in the last hunt that he fell for the lomelon’s fear, but this time, he was ready and wasn’t affected by the lomelon’s fear .
“Master dude! Go!” Tang-E screamed loudly and used Lightning . A blue lightning bolt descended into the cave, which was an enclosed space . After being hit by Tang-E’s lightning, the lomelon stopped briefly in a defenseless manner . He couldn’t even scream .
[The lomelon has been afflicted with the ‘electric shock’ abnormal state . ]
“Well done, Tang-E . ” Hyeonu complimented Tang-E and ran quickly toward the lomelon . The distance between the two of them wasn’t far since the lomelon had already been rushing toward Hyeonu . When Hyeonu arrived in front of the lomelon, it started swinging its fists like it had escaped from the electric shock state . “Kuaaah!”
The lomelon moved its fists, and the atmosphere exploded . It was just impossible for such an ignorant attack to touch Hyeonu’s mind .
‘This . . . ’ Hyeonu saw that the lomelon had escaped the electric shock state, so he instantly used Mysterious Sky Steps to escape the lomelon’s view .
Hyeonu chose not to step back and instead turned sideways . As a result, he gained the opportunity to target the gap that the lomelon showed . Black pure energy shot out from the Mysterious Sky Sword and cut through the air, passing through the lomelon’s side . The attack didn’t just cause a big cut; it also tore at the muscles . This fight was a far cry from the last battle .
[The lomelon has been afflicted with the ‘petrification’ abnormal state . ]
Crasul’s curse was triggered when Hyeonu’s attack struck, and the lomelon’s body turned gray . Just then, ice spears appeared from behind Hyeonu . The ice spears pierced the lomelon’s body that had started to harden . They only pierced the wound Hyeonu made .
“Well done, Tang-E!” Hyeonu laughed as he watched the lomelon scream with pain .

He had a premonition that today’s battle was over . Hyeonu used Blink and appeared in front of the lomelon . Then he raised the Mysterious Sky Single-edged Sword over his head and struck .
It was a neat cut .
‘Crescent Moon Cut . ’
The moment that the Mysterious Sky Sword fell down, a blade of pure energy that was more than 10 meters long appeared at the end of the sword . The lomelon’s body was literally split from the head to the groin area . It was due to the combination of Hyeonu’s high stats and skills and the Mysterious Sky Single-edged Sword .
[The low-grade demonic creature, the lomelon, has been killed . ]
[Experience has been acquired . ]
“Tang-E, good job . Good job . ” Hyeonu credited Tang-E for the short battle . It wouldn’t have been easy to kill the lomelon so quickly without Tang-E’s two magic blows .
“No . It is because Master is strong . ” Tang-E showed a little humility this time, but he couldn’t hide the smile on his face .
Hyeonu and Tang-E were in the midst of praising each other when a black-haired man approached Hyeonu from the direction in which the lomelon had appeared .
“You are here again . Why do you keep coming? Are you settling down here?” It was Leon Meyer .
Hyeonu knew his identity .
A dragon . . .
Leon Meyer was a dragon like Johannes . Based on his hair color, he was probably a black dragon .
“Hello, Leon Meyer . It has been a while . ”
“Why did you come again? Where are the damn bears? Why are you here?!! The fluffy bears . . . !!” Leon Meyer ignored Hyeonu’s greetings and made a bizarre expression as he imagined something . Then his eyes fell on Tang-E .
“It is a bear! Bear! A fluffy bear!” Leon Meyer rushed to Tang-E and hugged him . He held Tang-E in his arms and rubbed against his fur .
“Uwah, a crazy human . Completely crazy! Master dude, what are you doing? Save me!!” Tang-E shouted with an expression like he was going to cry .
Hyeonu spoke to Leon Meyer in order to save Tang-E . “Why are you asking me why I’m here? I came to pass Johannes’ test . ”
The moment Johannes’ name came out of Hyeonu’s mouth, Leon Meyer’s hand stopped touching Tang-E .
“Johannes? How do you know him? In addition, test? What test did he give you? Tell me quickly,” Leon Meyer urged Hyeonu as he put Tang-E down .
The name ‘Johannes’ impacted him greatly .
Hyeonu glanced at Tang-E and started to explain his situation to Leon Meyer . “So . . . ”
