Chapter 51

Soo Hyuk’s first thought was that Argor was massive . The trees weren’t small but Argor’s head towered over even the tallest branch .
-Ugh!
-Uuoo!
Argor’s two heads grunted and Soo Hyuk saw the massive club flying towards him . It tore through the tree branches as the troll smashed its club down on Soo Hyuk .
Soo Hyuk quickly threw himself out of the way after seeing the club crashing through the tree .
Bang!
Argor’s club then shattered the earth and shook the ground .
‘So this is the cause . ’
Soo Hyuk learned the identity of the earthquakes .
‘Won’t I die if I’m hit by that?’
Soo Hyuk had a lot of health, but not a lot of defense . He would almost certainly die if he misstepped and was hit .
-Hnng?
-Ugh!
Is it because of his dodging? Arger’s two heads grunted at each other, almost as if they were conversing . The reason for their action wasn’t important . What mattered was the opening that was created . Soo Hyuk took this delay to take the initiative and cast a Firestorm .
-Ugh!
-Uh huh!
A tornado of fire arose and the two heads of Arger roared in pain .
“Inferno . ”
Soo Hyuk saw Arger charging at him after the roar, so he retreated and cast Inferno .
All over, Arger’s skin began to burn .
“Magic Missiles, Firebolt, Fireball . ”
Suh Hyuk’s attack did not end with Inferno . Inferno was merely the beginning .
Arger stopped moving under the onslaught of spells and Soo Hyuk stopped retreating at this sight .
-Uuoooh!
Arger wasn’t dead . The message did not appear and the right head was screaming .
‘Is one head dead?’
Unlike the grunting right head, the left head was silent . Its eyes were closed and its head drooped down .
‘So the heads die one by one . I thought they’d die at the same time . ’
Soo Hyuk smiled as he learned something new .
“Magic Missile!”
Learning was learning and hunting was hunting . Under Soo Hyuk’s renewed round of spells, the left was killed as well and a system message appeared .
[Argor, the Twin Headed Troll, had been killed]
[Level up!]
Soo Hyuk was pleasantly surprised when he checked the message . He didn’t think he would level up from this . Even if Argor was a boss monster, he had thought that he wouldn’t gain much experience, but he was proven wrong .
“Looks like I gained a lot of experience . ’
Soo Hyuk opened his status window .

Satiation: 62%

The target level 100 .
‘I’m finally level 100 . ’
Level 100 was a significant level for Soo Hyuk .
‘Can I open the second door now?’
The minimum level to open the second door was 100 . Soo Hyuk closed his character window after investing the bonus stats in wisdom and opened the drop window .
“Keuk . ”
Soo Hyuk, after checked the drop window, exclaimed . It wasn’t because of gear . No pieces of equipment had dropped .
-Twin Headed Troll’s Leather
-Twin Headed Troll’s Head
-Twin Headed Troll’s Tendon
-Twin Headed Troll’s Blood

‘Troll’s Blood?’
Soo Hyuk rejoiced because of the Twin Head Troll’s Blood . After all, the twin head troll was also a troll, and like general trolls, the drop rate of blood was extremely low .
The problem was that Twin Headed trolls were few in number . The first twin headed troll that he encountered even turned out to be a boss!
The blood of twin head trolls, which were small in number and had a low drop rate, was priced at a high amount .
‘1000 gold!’
1000 gold . In cash, the current price of the Twin Headed Troll’s Blood was 100,000 won .
Of course, that wasn’t the only drop he got . He had also obtained leather, hair and tendons from Argor .
‘How much is this worth?’
Soo Hyuk pondered with a smile .
It was then .
“Hey, there it is!”
“Why isn’t it moving?”
Soo Hyuk heard voices approaching in his direction .
‘Huh?’
Soo Hyuk looked towards the source of the voice with a puzzled look . He could see two people coming through the trees toward him . No, to be exact, they were approaching Argor’s body .
“Fuck, it’s dead!”
“Heuk! Why?!”
Seeing the two’s reactions, Soo Hyuk hid himself in the undergrowth and listened to the conversation between the two .
“I told you to come early . Once every 10 days, are you stupid?”
“No, I thought I would never be users high enough level enough to hunt here even if they managed to find it by chance…”
“Oi, you were late . ”
“Sorry . ”
“Shut up . I’m getting annoyed . ”
“Mmm…”
Soo Hyuk thought while listening to the two’s conversations,
‘I don’t think I should stay here . ’
The two guys were in a bad mood . If he was found, things would quickly get out of control .
‘Should I finish hunting?’
Soo Hyuk still had some time left for hunting, but it wasn’t necessary to stick to the schedule so strictly .

‘No, they could be weird people . ’
He could get in an unpleasant situation if he got involved with them . One example was Adilo .
‘I’ll have to open the door anyway . ’
In addition, since he was level 100, Soo Hyuk needed to open the door . Soo Hyuk decided to finish his hunting session and cast the skill ‘Lapis Subspace’ .
[Warping to the Archmage’s Subspace . ]
The message appeared and the surrounding space distorted under the effect of the spell . . After a while, the distorted space was repaired and Soo Hyuk arrived at the Archmage’s Subspace . After arriving, Soo Hyuk looked to his front .
There were 10 doors . The door of fire was open and the rest of the doors were tightly closed .
Soo Hyuk thought while staring at the nine closed doors .
‘Which door do I open? I can only open one door . ’
Soo Hyuk’s first glance went to the door of poison .
‘No, Pavian will teach me poison magic . ’
Looking at the door of poison, Soo Hyuk shook his head . When the quest ’30 -Day Endeavour’ was completed, Pavian would teach him poison magic in person .
‘Since I have a skill quest, I don’t have to open the door of poison . ’
Opening the door of poison would create numerous skill quests .
What if Fabian’s reward shows up as a skill quest?
Opening the door of poison will result in duplicated skill quests . It was better to exclude the door of poison from the choices .
Suh Hyuk looked away from the door of poison and thought about the remaining eight doors . The next one he looked at was the door of water .
‘Water’s pretty good . ’
It was not a bad element, but it was not a good match for Soo Hyuk’s fire magic as water and fire weren’t compatible .
‘There is a good point, though . ’
Of course, there were certain advantages . It was that the weaknesses of each element were compensated to some extent by the other . There are monsters that are hard to catch with fire property magic . For example, the Phoenix . The Phoenix even regained health from fire attacks . If he tried to hunt it now, Soo Hyuk would only be able to use magic missile .
On the other hand it was weak to water . In other words, by opening the door of the water, Soo Hyuk would be able to easily catch the Phoenix-like monsters that are difficult to hunt with fire .
‘Earth is not bad… …
The next door was the door of earth . Earth was not bad either . Moreover, unlike water, it wasn’t conflicting with fire
‘But it’s not a good choice . ’
But that was it . It wasn’t good or bad .
For Soo Hyuk, it was ‘just earth’ .
Soo Hyuk then looked at the door of the wind . Fire and wind had good compatibility . It was because they strengthened each other . If Soo Hyuk wanted the best synergy with fire, he needed to open the door of wind .
Suhye suddenly frowned .

‘You need to fulfil a condition to open the door . ’
When the door of fire was opened, it was opened without any conditions . But that was only for the first time . From the second time onwards, there were conditions to opening the door .
‘The condition is not listed . ’
Soo Hyuk looked through the book on the podium . The book did not say what the conditions for opening the doors were .
‘Are the conditions all different?’
Soo Hyuk stared at the book then looked back at the doors . Each door symbolised a different element . Were there different conditions for each element?
“Huh…”
Soo Hyuk sighed .
‘Let’s check . ’
It was something to check . Soo Hyuk approached the door of the wind first and placed his hand on it like when he opened the door of fire .
[Do you want to open the door of the wind?]
A window appeared when I touched the door of the wind .
‘Do I have to accept?’
The conditions did not appear . They seemed to appear only after opening the door . Soo Hyuk closed the window . It was impossible to check the conditions .
‘What do I do . ’
Closing the window, Soo Hyuk thought .
‘I have to think carefully . ’
If he opens the door this time, he has to wait until level 200 for another door . Another 100 levels .
It wouldn’t be easy to be able to raise his level to 200 .
Didn’t Soo Hyuk need five times more experience than a normal job? His levelling speed now was extremely fast, but as his level goes up, his speed would slow down .
‘Okay . ’
After thinking, Soo Hyuk made his decision .
‘Considering the synergy, it has to be wind . ’
After making his decision, Soo Hyuk reached out to the door of the wind .
[Do you want to open the door of the wind?]
The window appeared and Soo Hyuk pressed OK . Then a message appeared .
[Opening the door of wind . ]
[Number of currently open doors: 1]
[The Wind Golem is summoned . ]
[Defeat the Wind Golem . ]
