No matter what anyone says, the highest scorer in Heroes Chronicle 2 was Outboxer009, who ranked first in the server rankings.
However, the person who hunted the most in Hero Chronicles 2 was Yellow Storm, who was ranked 2nd on the server.
‘If you just count the number of monsters hunted, Yellow Storm is easily twice that of Outboxer?’
The one with the most battle experience in Heroes Chronicle 2.
But even that yellow storm had never actually experienced combat.
‘Because the Raize River is a no-count.’
Because of the seal, we couldn’t move, and honestly, at that time, Cordelia and Yuder weren’t in their right minds because of the level-up.
Anyway, first real battle.
Cordelia was more nervous than she had imagined, but surprisingly, she was able to proceed with the battle with ease.
‘It’s so comfortable.’
Varuna’s dungeon book was never easy.
Basically, the monsters that appear are goblin-type monsters, as expected from the beginning, but they are not ordinary ones.
Goblins of different attributes appeared in each room, and their levels were not low.
If we calculate it using Hero Chronicles 2, it would be around level 10.
Monsters that were almost twice as high in level as Uther and Cordelia appeared with different attributes and characteristics, so it would not be an exaggeration to say that the difficulty level was like that of Nightmare Mode.
But despite that, Yellow Storm felt comfortable.
‘Your hands and feet fit together so well.’
I hate to admit it, but it happened.
Moreover, Outboxer009 showed the most perfect support play of any supporter that Yellow Storm has ever experienced.
As soon as the dark attribute goblins wearing black masks appeared – no, even before they appeared, Yuder was already tearing apart the light attribute magic circle that was the opposite of the dark attribute.
The goblins that had appeared in a swarm began to feel deep fatigue and groan as soon as they set foot on the floor covered with the light attribute, and Cordelia fired magic missiles at them before they could even approach.
Of course, this wasn’t all.
Uther saw exactly what Cordelia needed.
When it felt like my magic was running out, a mana potion would fly out from behind me, and when I felt like I needed a certain magic circle, Yuder would come up close behind me, give me the magic circle, and then leave.
As a result, the hunting of Natural Uther and Cordelia was quick and precise, like the surgery of a doctor and nurse who had been working together for a long time.
But still.
The yellow storm that crumpled the impression suddenly burst into anger.
“Hey! Don’t just eat the last one!”
In any case, the average level of the opposing monsters is 9 to 10.
It was nearly impossible to take them down in one blow, as they were nearly twice as many as Cordelia, and the number of them that were teetering on the verge of death was also considerable.
And every time one of those guys showed up, Uder would land the final blow with a hilariously perfect finish.
‘When did you bring the bow and hatchet again?’
Moreover, the hit rate was considerable.
Yuder was so skilled at everything he did with his body that no one would think he was a genius.
“Kkieek!”
The goblin, struck in the chest by an axe, fell down with a single scream.
It was the guy who staggered after being hit by Cordelia’s magic missile.
After Uther seasoned it and Cordelia fed it a round, Uther finished it off again.
If you just look at the breathing itself, it was perfect, but how should I put it, it felt like it was Cordelia herself supporting, not Yuder?
In any case, the experience points themselves were structured so that the person who made the last hit would get the most.
“Here it comes again!”
Yuder, who had pulled out the hatchet stuck in the goblin’s chest with a groan, looked straight ahead and shouted.
A hobgoblin twice the size of any goblin that had appeared so far came charging forward, roaring.
“Greece!”
Cordelia shouted, pointing to the ground. The hobgoblin that had been charging forward recklessly suddenly stepped on the slippery ground and fell down with a loud crash, and Uther shouted again and tore the magic circle apart.
“Bind!”
Invisible ropes bound the fallen hobgoblin’s limbs. Given the hobgoblin’s brute strength, it wouldn’t last long, but it didn’t take long anyway.
Uther let out a short breath. He grabbed his axe and charged forward, and instead of looking at him, Cordelia quickly recited a spell.
“Urassha!”
Uther didn’t lie to Cordelia.
Even though Yuder’s veins were being treated thanks to the Sun’s Necklace, his body was still extremely weak.
But even so, there was at least a minimum of muscle strength.
In that case, all you had to do was attack the area where you could inflict a fatal blow with that minimal amount of strength.
“Kkaaa …
The hobgoblin, with the hatchet stuck between his legs, let out a shriek. His struggles were so intense that the binding spell seemed to break instantly.
“Oops!”
Although he was the one who attacked, Uther unconsciously placed both hands between his groin as he rolled on the ground to avoid the hobgoblin’s kicks.
And Cordelia completed the spell.
“Fire-Arrow!”
Unlike the attributeless magic missile, this is a flaming arrow filled with the power of the fire attribute.
It was a magic that took quite some time for Cordelia, who was still a 1-star magician.
“Whoa!”
The arrow of flame struck the hobgoblin between the legs once more, and the flailing hobgoblin suddenly fell to his knees with a loud snap.
It was a death from shock caused by successive shocks.
“Hoo··· hoo··· hoo······.”
Cordelia, wrapped in a ring of pure white light, let out a ragged breath and sat down, and Uther also let out a sigh of relief.
“The intermediary mission is over. Now only the boss room remains.”
Cordelia closed her eyes and wiped the sweat from her forehead as she listened to Uther’s words, who had completely fallen asleep.
Five hours.
That’s how long it took to get here.
Of course, we did take breaks here and there. But it was still clear that it was a forced march that would inevitably leave us exhausted.
‘Indeed, a yellow storm.’
Yuder, who had raised his upper body while catching his breath, smiled as he looked at Cordelia, who was sitting over there, gasping for breath.
If it had been someone other than Yellow Storm that came with us, we probably wouldn’t have made it this far in five hours.
‘No, maybe you didn’t even make a plan.’
Anyway, I got here.
Since it was a virtual dungeon where you couldn’t die, the experience efficiency was poor, but even so, because the level difference between them and the monsters was so great, Yuder himself was at level 8, and Yellow Storm was at level 7, just before reaching level 8.
‘It’s possible.’
Yuder nodded after counting the number of remaining magic circles.
Since the consumption was less than expected, it was worth challenging the boss room.
“Nobok-ah, are you very tired?”
Instead of answering Uther’s question, Cordelia lay down, and Uther decided to rest a little longer.
And then another hour later.
Yuder and Cordelia, who had recovered their stamina and magic power through exercise and meditation respectively, stood side by side in front of a large black door that anyone would assume was the entrance to the boss room.
“What comes out from inside?”
“Fury Wolf.”
“Not a goblin?”
“Fury Wolf. Move fast. You and I both have to keep moving.”
“What’s the solution?”
“I tie you up, you beat you. But······.”
“but?”
“Just focus on evasion until I give you the signal. I have some prep work to do. Why?”
When Uther asked, Cordelia narrowed her eyes instead of answering right away.
“You’re not trying to do anything weird, are you?”
“What a strange thing. We’re an opponent that requires the two of us to join forces to defeat.”
“Hmm, okay. Well then.”
Cordelia, who had made up her mind, stretched slightly and gestured to Uther, who opened the door to the boss room.

The moment I opened the door, silence fell.
The atmosphere itself has changed.
The land covered with white cloth under the black sky.
In the middle of it all stood a giant wolf.
It had green fur with distinct yellow stripes and glowing yellow eyes, and breathed hot air.
The distance is about 30 meters.
It wasn’t close at all, but it wasn’t a distance that could be considered reassuring either.
Uther glanced at Cordelia, and Cordelia did the same. After exchanging glances, the two slowly distanced themselves from each other.
Fury Wolf didn’t move hastily. He looked between Uther and Cordelia, drooling hotly, and at one point, his fur stood on end and he braced his limbs.
Immediately after.
That’s when Cordelia let out her breath.
bang!
Fury Wolf kicked the ground. It rushed towards Uther, and Uther, who had anticipated this, threw himself without hesitation and rolled on the ground.
“No-pok!”
Instead of answering, Cordelia tore the magic circle she had received during her break. Bind magic rushed toward Fury Wolf, and in the meantime, Uther, who had raised himself, also tore the magic circle. This time, it was Bind again.
“Keep going!”
Fury Wolf roared. Cordelia’s bind was shattered by the wolf’s roar, and Uther’s bind was wrapped around the bastard’s body.
“Greece!”
Cordelia cast her spell again. It was between Uther and Fury Wolf, and Fury Wolf, who had broken free of the binding with brute force, slid across the floor.
Uther threw his hatchet at the Fury Wolf. Without even looking to see if it hit, he tore through the magic circle repeatedly.
Boom!
This time it wasn’t a bind.
The first one was a waterfall that I had been saving and saving, and the second one was lightning.
A blob of water formed in the air and fell upon Fury Wolf. A bolt of lightning struck the soaking wet creature’s head.
“Khuung!”
The Fury Wolf’s roar was mixed with pain.
But Yellow Storm felt uneasy at that moment.
“Outboxer?!”
I shouted and threw myself at the same time. Fury Wolf was rushing towards Cordelia. And at a faster speed than before!
“Not yet!”
Uther rolled on the floor and tore the magic circle. Then, a bolt of lightning struck Fury Wolf again.
And Cordelia was sure.
Uther wasn’t attacking Puy Wolf right now.
Rather, it was strengthening him!
“Crazy! Brain power!”
To the Fury Wolf in front of him, brain magic like Lightning was nothing more than a nutrient that recharged his strength.
Nevertheless, Uther struck Lightning twice and strengthened the bastard.
Why, for what reason!
“bingo!”
As Uther shouted, Fury Wolf roared toward the sky. At the same time, a huge horn rose from between its forehead.
Phage crackle-!
Lightning flashed along the creature’s horns.
And Cordelia could understand.
This was Uder’s purpose from the beginning.
Strengthening Fury Wolf to bring out hidden powers.
It might be a hidden piece to get a B-rank skill book.
“Fuck! Something is weird!”
I thought it was okay for a dungeon that gives B-rank skill books from the beginning!
Reinforced dungeon boss.
Fury Wolf didn’t just have a horn on its forehead. Its size itself seemed to have grown much larger than before.
“Okay! I’ve properly awakened!”
As soon as Uther shouted in a voice full of joy, Cordelia started cursing.
“You crazy bastard! Can you catch that?!”
“I have to catch it! What the? There’s no way I can catch it!”
“You bastard! You damn bastard!”
And in the midst of all this, you’re provoking me!
Cordelia quickly brushed her hair back and readjusted her baton-like magic wand.
Uder also smiled and grabbed a bundle of magic circles in his left hand and a hatchet in his right.
“Coming.”
As Uther spoke, Fury Wolf kicked the ground.
