Episode 6
6. Episode 6
“There was more distance than I thought.”
A weapon hidden in the forest.
In the first place, it wasn’t intentional that Seun was able to find it before the regression.
During the monster wave, I was chased by monsters and entered the forest. While wandering around, I found it by chance thanks to the activation of the travel guide.
Se-Woon’s expression slightly crumpled as he reminisced about the past.
“Come to think of it, there he was.”
A guy who put himself forward as a meat shield. No, a villain who put not only himself, but also the elderly and people who were of no use to his power forward as meat shields.
Now, Seun couldn’t be used as a meat shield, but it didn’t seem like he was behaving properly.
“Well, thanks to him, I learned about the power of the ‘Journey’s Guide’.”
This is just a conclusion. It is clear that the guy pushed the weak people forward and drove them to death.
Seun was not a gentleman, but he was not the type to use motivated people as meat shields.
“Well, let’s go back and deal with that.”
Securing weapons is the priority now.
A variety of smells were felt from the nose where the ‘noll’s snout’ was embedded.
The strong scent of grass, the distinctive odor of a wild wolf’s tail, and even the smell of a rotting animal’s carcass.
Among them, there was one smell that didn’t seem to fit with the forest.
That’s right, the smell of rusty iron.
Although he couldn’t use the travel guide, the scent was clearly the weapon Seun was looking for.
-The constellation, ‘The Hungry Prince’, starts whining that his belly skin is stuck to his back.
‘Somehow, it feels like I’m raising a pig rather than a constellation.’
Perhaps, if the god of gluttony could read my thoughts, the teeth that were tearing at the wolf’s carcass would have turned towards him.
As I was thinking that, the faint smell of iron grew stronger, and gray hairs appeared between the bushes.
‘Gray wolf.’
At first glance, it looks like it’s twice as big as any brown wolf you’ve ever seen.
Gray fur covered its entire body, and a lush mane grew around its neck, like a lion’s.
-The constellation, ‘The Hungry Prince’ picks up his fork at the appearance of the main dish.
“Krung… … .”
He tried to hide himself, but the wolf’s gaze was fixed directly on Se-un.
Just as Se-un used his sense of smell to find the location of the weapon, it seems that he also used his sense of smell to find the location.
‘Before the regression, I was so busy running away that I didn’t even notice.’
I wasn’t thinking about that now.
I came out of the bushes and stood proudly in front of the guy.
If it were another beast, it would have immediately swung its claws at the sight of its prey, but it displayed all the wariness characteristic of a wolf and slowly circled Seun.
‘It’s smaller than I thought.’
The Gray Wolf in Seun’s memories was twice as large and ferocious as this.
Perhaps, at the time, I had not yet adapted to the tower and the tutorial, so I encountered the guy and my memory was inflated due to fear.
And the gray wolf, as I just said, is ‘smaller than you’d think. Even standing on four legs, its size is so huge that you’d think it was a tiger rather than a wolf.
“Kwang!”
Perhaps feeling no longer alert, the guy immediately ran towards me, showing his fangs.
Not only is it bigger, it is also faster than the brown wolf.
Sigh.
The exact location he’s aiming for is the neck.
It seems like he is trying to take Seun’s life in one blow by twisting the vital point in one breath.
However, Seun was able to completely escape the guy’s attack range by simply stretching out one of his legs.
Ten-year retirement.
Shaolin martial arts not only include methods for simply kicking the enemy, but also include techniques for moving the legs to dodge the enemy’s attacks and approach them.
Bam!
Immediately afterwards, Seun’s right foot struck the wolf’s side.
It was a blow that took advantage of the gap left by the missed attack, but it was Seun, not the wolf, who felt the pain and stepped back.
“Damn, why is it so weird?”
“Crunch!”
I kicked him properly in the abdomen, which was clearly not protected by his ribs. However, it was blocked by muscle and skin, and instead of doing any damage, Se-woon’s leg started to hurt.
No matter how good the technology is, the ability value is very low.
Thanks to the power of gluttony, I had barely surpassed the level of a normal person, but this was no way to deal with Gray Wolf.
Swish!
The guy’s sharp claws grazed Seun’s chest.
If I hadn’t pulled away in a hurry, not only would my skin have been cut, but my ribs would have been crushed.
Power and speed.
Nothing can surpass him.
If it weren’t for the method of the Shiplo Damtoe, I would have been covered in blood and eaten by that guy’s mouth a long time ago.
“Kwaaang!”
Snap!
“It’s no use calling out. The wolves around here have already entered the stomach of the demon.”
-The constellation, ‘The Hungry Prince’, urges the main dish to be served quickly, saying that it has already been digested for a long time.
He raised his jaw forcefully and kicked the thing that was right in front of his nose, then fell back.
The wolf’s attacks became more intense, perhaps realizing that Seun’s attacks were not that strong. As if it was just ticklish, it ignored Seun’s attacks and opened its mouth.
Accordingly, Seun moved urgently, following the method of the Shiplodamtoe.
chin.
Something caught Se-un’s leg.
When I looked back, the ground was raised like a tomb.
“Kwang!”
“Crrrrrrr!”
I thought I had killed all the wolves that came here and attacked me.
As if they had heard the gray wolf’s howl, two brown wolves came striding towards Seun from either side.
The three wolves and the tomb were completely blocked on all sides.
“Krrrr… … .”
Gray Wolf moves his feet leisurely as if he has no idea what to do now.
He starts salivating and his mouth starts to water as if Se-un’s head is already in his mouth.
“Kwang!”
At the Gray Wolf’s cry to bring in the prey, the wolves on both sides rush in, aiming for Seun’s vital points.
In a truly desperate situation.
Stone, squeak-
The necks of the two wolves rushing at Se-un are torn apart as if by magic.
Only after the two bodies hit the floor, the veins begin to vomit blood as they realize their master’s death.
“Did you think I retreated here for nothing?”
In Se-un’s hand was a sword that had rusted red from having been through the storms of time.
The weapon that was the goal of this journey. It is the sword that was stuck in the tomb.
Even though it was rusty, the blade still retained its sharpness and had no trouble cutting through the wolf’s body.
-The Treasure Trove of Greed has been opened.
[Hamelga Sword Technique]
– A basic longsword technique known to be passed down only to direct descendants of the Hamel family, a renowned swordsmanship family of the Grad Empire.
Hamelga’s sword technique.
The reason why Seun chose this among the many treasures in his warehouse is not complicated.
Before the return, the ranker who reigned in the tower under the name of the Sword Emperor, Francis Hamel. Because his name came to mind.
Since it was a swordsmanship learned by someone who rose to the position of swordsman in the tower, the potential of Hamelga’s longsword technique was practically guaranteed.
In addition to these, there were many martial arts books that were stronger than these, such as Taegeuk Sword Technique, Byeoksa Sword Technique, and Pantera’s Great Heaven Sword Technique, but Seun did not get greedy.
With my current body, the most important thing is to grow step by step from the basics.
In that sense, Hamelga’s sword technique seemed the most suitable for Seun, as it was a basic weapon technique guaranteed by the top rankers.
“It’s going to be a little different from now on.”
“Kwang!”
Kagang!
Gray Wolf’s claws clashed with Seun’s sword.
It was an attack I never thought I would encounter before I picked up my sword, but now it’s different.
As soon as he lets go of the guy’s claws, he steps forward with his right foot and swings his sword horizontally.
Squeak-
The hide of that once tough guy is cut off so easily, as if it were a lie.
The panicked guy quickly kicks the ground and backs away.
“As expected, it is a good sword.”
-The constellation, ‘The Crow with its Head Down’, looks at your sword with a strange gaze.
At first glance, the sword looked so rusty that it seemed useless, but as soon as I swung it, I could feel it.
This sword is at least one of the best swords you can get in the tutorial.
Now that we have seized the opportunity, there is no reason to back down like before.
Taat!
Seun kicks the ground and runs towards the guy.
The following attacks are honest horizontal and vertical slashes, and stabbings.
It was an attack that didn’t have even the slightest bit of flashiness, considering it was the famous Hamelga swordsmanship.
Even the Shaolin school’s basic martial art, ‘Shiplodamtoi’, which is characterized by straight movements, was not to this extent.
If someone who didn’t know saw it, they would have clicked their tongue and said, ‘Is that the vision of a famous swordsmanship school?’, but if someone who knew saw it, they would have nodded seriously.
Perfect cuts and stabs without a single flaw.
Clean movements that can never be demonstrated by anyone who has not swung a sword tens of thousands of times.
It contained the heavy power and sharp foresight that was characteristic of Hamelga.
By simply pulling out the sword techniques from Mammon’s warehouse and using them, these Hamelga’s secrets were perfectly embedded in his movements.
-The constellation, ‘The Hungry Prince’, can’t stand it any longer and slams the table down.
I wanted to enjoy more of Hamelga’s magic, but the impatient constellations were looking down on me.
Se-un also had to return to camp before the second wave started, so he straightened his posture to finish it.
“Kwang!”
The gray wolf moves.
It uses its strong four legs to quickly move its body in a zigzag pattern, creating a distraction.
He opens his mouth, focusing his gaze on the person he is talking to as if he will never let his guard down.
That moment.
Phew!
Se-Woon lightly stepped forward with his right foot.
He then stretched out the sword he had been holding over his shoulder.
Then, Seun’s sword plunges into the gaping maw of the gray wolf.
There was no need to exert any force.
At the last moment, Gray Wolf also realized that something was wrong, but it was already too late.
Only after Seun’s sword had sunk so far that only the handle was visible did the wolf stop moving, and its eyes rolled back, signaling the end of the fight.
– Defeated the boss monster of the Wolf Forest, ‘The Wolf Guarding the Grave’.
-The level has increased.
– Personal public service value increases by 500 points.
-You have obtained the ‘Gray Wolf Skin’.
There was one more goal for this journey besides weapons.
That’s right, personal achievements.
There are several ways to increase your public service value.
The first method is to be active in tutorials such as monster raids.
The second way is to find the monsters separately and defeat them like you are doing now.
The third way is.
‘Defeating other players.’
In fact, the third method is more commonly used than finding monsters and defeating them.
Because it was easier and simpler to obtain high public service points than to deal with monsters.
Not now, but as we get closer to the end of the tutorial, the number of players wielding swords will increase.
“I might be a little late.”
[Tutorial Chapter 1 – Adaptation]
-12 minutes left until the second monster wave.
12 minutes left until the next wave.
I felt like I had to hurry a little.
