Chapter 241 – The Summer Queen (6)
Team: HH, thursdays, Yahiko
“90%? That was a load of bullshit . ”
Yeon-woo snorted at himself for thinking that if the Martial King ‘helped’ him, he would be able to catch the Summer Queen . Help? Who? The Martial King?
It was the opposite .
Rather, it would be a relief if Yeon-woo wasn’t a nuisance .
Even though she was injured, the Summer Queen was still the Summer Queen .
She was the last dragon, as well as the absolute ruler of the Tower for the last thousand years .
Catching someone like that was a load of bullshit .
Even if he joined the Martial King and the Summer Queen’s fight, he would be injured in the fight of beasts .
But still, Yeon-woo was a bit envious .
‘That fight… . . is supposed to be my fight . ’
The Martial King had stepped up to help his disciple . It was because he knew how foolish his disciple was . That was why he stepped up instead of Yeon-woo, and he was walking the dangerous path with his life at stake .
Despite being in this situation, Yeon-woo didn’t like the Martial King’s help, and he just felt extremely competitive at that moment .
However, he didn’t hide these thoughts .
He also wanted to join in on that fight . It was just a 1% chance, not 10%, but he was confident he could end the Summer Queen .
Even if the Summer Queen roared and used her power, she couldn’t compare to Agares, who had made the entire stage go dark, or Hermes, who had eaten up a demon .
Furthermore, the Summer Queen was someone who ripped an arm away from his brother’s body .
He had to pay her back for that . Poisoning by Devil Poison? That wasn’t enough to satisfy him .
[… . . Yeah . That’s it . Very good . ]
Rmmmm, rmm—
The powers of a full member of the Draconic species were equivalent to a god’s, and fighting against a god or demon was insane . Still, Yeon-woo had blown a punch to Agares .
So why couldn’t he do it now?
[… . . Quick . Your prey is there . Isn’t it?]
Just then, the Philosopher’s stone vibrated . It whispered sweetly in his ear from his heart .
Usually, it didn’t move much, but it always activated in times like this . It was obviously a trick to lead him into danger, but… . .
‘Ahhh, so we can see eye to eye sometimes . ’
Yeon-woo smirked . Although it was only the remnants of the Demonism of Agares, it was still a part of his personality .
Yeon-woo stretched his hand out mid-air .
[You have chosen the reward ‘Opening of Intrenian . ’ You can earn 5 items from what is on the list . ]
[What will you choose?]
[Reward List]
Fenghuang’s Egg
Prometheus’s Fire
King’s Festival
They were the rewards from the quest that the Summer Queen had given him .
Even though the important treasures were taken, all the items on the list were still outstanding .
Of those, there was something Yeon-woo wanted .
As he chose his rewards, he had a thought .
‘Breaking the Summer Queen’s head with a reward she gave me? I’m curious what kind of face she’ll make . ’
He could see his teacher jumping up and down in anger because he bothered them .
‘Well . He’ll just take it as his disciple being cute . Since a disciple takes after their teacher . ’
Convincing himself with nonsense,
Ring—
‘The last attack—’
Yeon-woo lifted the items he touched .
‘—goes to whoever can do it . ’
[You have chosen the ‘Yaltabao Safe’ as your reward . ]
[… . . Safe?]
The voice of the Demonism cracked .
[Yaltabao Safe]
Category: Miscellaneous
Rank:
Summary: A safe that the mysterious merchant Yaltabao created . It’s much purer than most safes, but it’s popular because of its conductivity for magic power .
Where was he going to use this?
The Demonism wanted to scream . However, regardless of what it thought, Yeon-woo chose the same reward again .
[You have chosen the ‘Yaltabao Safe’ as your reward . ]
[You have chosen the ‘Yaltabao Safe’ as your reward . ]
Yaltabao Safe .
It was a priceless item in the Tower . It was also used as a type of currency inside the Tower .
It was true that it was a rare item to get . However, it definitely fell short for a reward for a quest that the Red Dragon gave .
He chose things like this instead of Fenghuang’s Egg or Prometheus’s Fire . The Demonism shouted furiously .
[… . . What are you doing?! Just what!]
“Fun things . ”
Yeon-woo grinned . And also, he was able to be sure of one thing . The Demonism was another form of him, but it couldn’t read his mind . It was clear it wasn’t able to see what he was doing .
If it was a method that the Demonism couldn’t guess, then it was a sure way .
[… . . Sure . I’m sure you’ll do well . I can even look forward to it . That dragon . You have to get it in your hands . ]
The Demonism muttered unsatisfactorily, then disappeared, licking his lips .
Every time it saw the Summer Queen, it looked forward to how she would taste . Also, it was the last dragon in the Tower . It would be a delicacy .
‘Although I won’t do what you want me to . ’
Yeon-woo smirked at the Demonism and collected all the Yaltabao Safes . Obviously, he wouldn’t be able to crush the Summer Queen to death using the safes .
He used Blink to get to somewhere he had found with his Extrasensory Perception . It was a place separated from the battlefield .
“W-What’s this?!”
Atran jumped in surprise when Yeon-woo suddenly popped up in front of him .
The Ice King and Twice reflectively pulled their swords out, but they were flicked away by a wall they couldn’t see . It was a barrier Boo had activated inside a shadow .
Suddenly, the Ice King and Twice’s eyes widened . They had swung their swords in a rush, but it couldn’t have been deflected this easily . A word flashed in their heads .
‘Danger . ’
But they didn’t attack the unknown person . They had never seen him, but they immediately recognized who it was .
There was only one person with a black mask skilled enough to attack them . The Hoarder .
“You, how did you… . . ?”
Atran hid behind ‘Turn’ thinking that Red Dragon had sent an assassin, and his eyes widened when he saw Yeon-woo .
“It’s been a while . ”
When Yeon-woo greeted him, Atran’s eyes enlarged, then narrowed again .
“Yeah . It was you! Shit! So that’s what happened!”
When Atran heard Yeon-woo’s voice, he realized what had happened .
Yeon-woo grinned .
“You catch on quickly . ”
“That’s what I do! Shit! I was scammed by a player again!”
Atran cursed . It was his rule to also speak politely to others, but he became super angry seeing Yeon-woo .
The sudden appearance of Yeon-woo . A voice he heard from somewhere . A familiar attitude . He wasn’t a fool .
He ground his teeth thinking of what happened in the Tutorial . This time, Yeon-woo had completely pushed him to the edge .
“Why did you come here now, of all times? To mock me? Or to look at a bankrupt merchant?”
The Ice King and Twice looked amusedly at Atran and Yeon-woo .
They didn’t know what their relationship was, but it was funny that only Atran had enmity towards Yeon-woo . The Atran they knew wasn’t someone who’s poker face fell apart that easily .
‘Turn’ put his sword back into his sheath and moved aside . But still loyal to his duty, he continued to observe Yeon-woo .
His gaze was sharp .
[Let’s talk later . Nocturn . No, should I call you brother?]
‘Turn . ’ The Martial King’s second disciple glared at him and shook his head, as if he were telling him to do whatever he wanted .
Yeon-woo looked at Nocturn calmly . The second disciple who had left the Martial King, saying it wasn’t the path for him . He was the same as the shadow he saw on the 21st floor . He didn’t know that he would see him here .
Also, even the Ice King was next to Atran . He didn’t know the mercenary who lost to the Martial King would be here .
To think that all these skilled players had been hired .
