‘I didn’t expect this.’
I guess I underestimated the intelligence of the opponent, Drake. How could he break the barrier like this?
Whether it was intentional or planned, the odds were tilted heavily in Darakan’s favor.
“Oh, what should I do?”
Kwak.
Seun gripped the halberd tightly.
If monsters were to interfere in the battle like this, the odds of winning would be slim even if they poured out all their treasures.
It would be a waste to run away like this, because the treasure I had used up until now was too much. Even if that wasn’t the case, my pride wouldn’t allow it.
In this bleak situation, a shadow appeared over Se-un’s head.
Did dark clouds suddenly appear?
Se-Woon, who had raised his head while thinking like that, was able to witness a giant falling from the sky.
-Player Kang Han-cheol uses ‘Open War’.
Kwaaaaang!!
All the monsters that had been approaching and surrounding Seun and Riel fell down.
It was thanks to the ground shaking as if an earthquake had occurred.
The force and range of the explosion were so powerful that it was nearly twice as strong as usual, given how high it had fallen from.
“Strong iron?”
“I was a little late because the ride was too shabby.”
“Vehicle?”
Are you talking about the Red Wolf?
However, if he came riding on a red wolf, it is difficult to understand why Kang Hwa-cheol fell from the sky.
It didn’t take long for Se-Woon, who had a blank expression for a moment, to realize the identity of the ‘vehicle’.
Poobuk.
“Koooo-!”
“Manticore?”
The manticore, descending from the sky at a right angle like an eagle, stabbed Darakhan with its tail’s venomous stinger. And that too, precisely between the scales that had been shed when the Seunite and the halberd clashed.
A manticore appears in the tutorial area.
The owner was someone Seundo knew well.
“Baek Hyeon?”
“It’s not that I was being rude! Rather, it’s amazing that I was able to fly with Mr. Kang-cheol on board!”
Baekhyun succeeded in raising Manticore.
And it wasn’t the skeleton Seun had imagined, but a ghoul two levels higher.
– The constellation, ‘The Crow with its Head Down’, looks with great admiration at the corpse of the manticore moving as if it had come back to life.
– The constellation bows its head to the demon, saying that it is a masterpiece created with the utmost effort by the ‘Word that Tramples Death’.
-The constellation, ‘The Crow with its Head Bowed’, acknowledges the Grand Marshal’s skills in further perfecting his treasure.
‘What does that mean?’
Since Kang Han-cheol and Baek Hyun appeared, it was only natural that other people would come to mind.
As if to prove it, a red-bone wolf leaped high through the crowd of monsters.
“Hyungniiim!”
Park Jeong-pil appears riding a red wolf.
And Yu Seo-ah, who was riding behind him, surveyed the battlefield and jumped down before the enemy even landed, pulling out her twin swords.
-Player Yushua uses the ‘Tarantula’s Third Leg’.
Creak! Creak!
The moment she landed, the ten monsters surrounding her fell down, spraying blood fountains.
Kang Han-cheol, Baek Hyun, Park Jeong-pil, and Yoo Seo-ah.
The four of them fought the monsters from four directions as if they had planned it in advance.
“I guess we just have to stop the monsters?”
“Can you do it?”
“Of course.”
“Even if it doesn’t work out, you have to do it. That’s how it’s always been done.”
“I didn’t even use golden light.”
“It’s pretty good, isn’t it?”
Only Riel had a puzzled expression on her face at the sight of the four of them looking so natural.
‘All four of them are at least ranked in the top 100. Are they all following that guy?’
Ranking up in tutorials was never easy.
Even though Riel had tried so hard to take first place, he was placed in second place by Se-un.
There are so many rankers like that. What on earth is that man’s true identity?
As she was thinking like that, the man’s name finally came to her ears.
“I can’t stand it much, Se-un.”
“Just hold on for ten seconds. That’s enough.”
“… … Wait, you’re Seun?”
“Goes.”
“for a moment!”
Taat!
Se-un didn’t wait for Riel’s question.
Seun. Isn’t that the name of the player who has surpassed you and taken first place in the rankings?
My head was in disarray, but now was no time to ask or reason.
Realizing that it was the end, she squeezed out all the mana she had and activated the spirits.
“let’s go!”
“Burn it!”
“We’ll help you!”
“Bad dragon!”
“Kuaaaahhhh-!”
Darakan roared even louder as he saw Seun running towards him boldly despite the barrier being broken.
Although fear doesn’t work, that roar had the power to push bodies away with just the wind pressure.
However, thanks to the wind spirit bending the air currents to assist his movements, Seun ran forward without the slightest resistance.
Darakan jabbed his claws at Seun.
chuck.
Se-un did not wield a weapon.
He simply looked straight into Darakan’s eyes and concentrated his strength for the next attack.
[Believe.]
“huh!”
Boom!
I believed in the equipment and spirit power that Go Chang-seok had created.
The moment the nail touched his body, he felt a strong impact, but Se-Woon rode that momentum to move his legs even faster.
My stamina was at its limit, but this was enough.
– Through internal energy, the Jay style of the Grad Empire’s spear technique, the Mortar Axe, is strengthened.
thud!
The halberd struck Darakhan’s lower jaw once again.
But the bastard gritted his teeth and endured the attack as if he would not be attacked twice by the same attack.
He himself knows that if he doesn’t reveal his true colors, Se-woon can’t defeat him.
At that moment, Se-Woon changed his grip on the axe and his posture.
-The ritual of the Grad Empire-style spear technique, Nan-gyeok-bu (亂擊斧), is strengthened through internal energy.
Wow wow wow!!
“Kreuk, keueuu!”
The halberd was swung quickly.
The halberd was characterized by its slow speed due to the axe blade attached to the long weapon, but this was not the case at the time.
Halberd. No, the weapon that was now closer to the Bangcheonhwageuk was swung with dizzying speed, and Darakan ended up raising his chin in surrender to the dizzyingly fierce momentum.
chuck.
‘It’s now.’
Se-woon changed his posture as if he had been waiting for this moment.
He gripped the handle so tightly that it almost broke, and raised it to strike Darakan’s exposed chin.
– Through internal energy, the Zeo style of the Grad Empire’s spear technique, the striking axe, is strengthened.
Kwaaaaang!!
The force was so strong that Darakan’s head and even his front legs were lifted off the ground in an instant.
The Golden Hellbird, having accomplished its purpose, exhausted its strength and turned into gold dust, disappearing.
It’s a shame, but it was an achievement beyond expectations that he was able to display this much power while holding the power of Bangcheonhwageuk.
The moment Darakan, who realized that his reverse scale had been revealed, quickly tried to adjust his posture, Seun shouted out the unique ability of the Golden Castle.
“Golden Light.”
A golden light shot out from the Golden Castle, which was not even visible in the distance.
Golden light.
A unique ability of the Golden Castle that stops all enemy movements once a day. If you are the lord of the Golden Castle, you can use the ability regardless of your location.
Choaaaat!
As soon as the golden light touched, Darakan’s body stopped with its front legs falling off.
Only the pupils were trembling violently and looking at Se-un.
“Is the tutorial finally over?”
Thud, thud.
Se-Woon took out his new weapon and leisurely approached the bastard’s reverse scale.
As this was the final blow, I took out my most effective treasure to give him no room for error.
-The Treasure Trove of Greed has been opened.
[ Dragon Sword, Ascalon ]
– The famous sword used by Saint George to defeat the dragon. A weapon of victory in the fight against evil.
Phew.
Seun’s sword slid through Darakhan’s reverse scale.
Compared to the hard scales and flesh, it felt soft, like poking tofu.
Se-Woon, who felt confident about this, used his strength to cut off the scale.
Crunch-
The angry tyrant of the seas. Sea Drake, Darakan’s head is cut off in vain… … .
– Defeated the final boss monster of the tutorial, ‘Darakan, Tyrant of the Angry Sea’.
-The level has increased.
-The level has increased.
…
– Personal public service value increases by 300,000 points.
– You have obtained the ‘Sea Drake’s Scales’.
-You have obtained the ‘Sea Drake’s Fang’.
…
-You have acquired ‘The Fury of the Sea’.
The tutorial has come to a close.

[Tutorial Chapter 5 – Defense]
-The assignment was completed perfectly!
– Leave behind an amazingly great achievement and give an additional 150,000 points to players around the boss monster.
– 50,000 points will be awarded to all survivors of the Mercury Battle.
-Congratulations! You’ve successfully completed the fifth chapter of the tutorial!
-Please move towards the entrance of the tower for the final tally.
Finally, all five chapters of the tutorial are finished.
Only players who survive this entire process can enter the tower and begin the real climb.
“The end… … is here.”
“Thank you for your hard work, Se-un.”
“It’s you, hyung! I believed in you!”
“Are you feeling better?”
As the tutorial ended, the monsters surrounding Seun began to run away.
Well, their king has fallen.
It was natural to lose the will to fight any longer.
“I’m fine, except I’m a little tired.”
Actually, it was a bit off level.
The light was out now, but while the stigmata were active, it felt like energy was slowly draining from my body.
It felt like my life force itself, not my mana or my internal energy, was disappearing.
However, that doesn’t mean that I had enough mana or energy. I used up all of my mana and energy for the final attack.
I opened the treasure chest and drank a bottle of potion, and my trembling hands seemed to calm down a little.
“What are you?”
“Get out of here.”
“What? Do you know who I am? This body is your right arm, hyung, bang!”
Riel Refrain. She lightly pushed Park Jeongpil away and approached Seun.
‘If it’s Riel’s personality, she must be quite upset.’
Before the return, Riel’s movements were so famous that even Seun heard about them.
He said that he climbed to the top by repeatedly putting in all his effort and training in order not to lose first place.
Actually, I heard that they were competing for first place on quite a few floors. But at some point, all news about them completely disappeared.
She paused in front of Se-un for a moment, then seemed to have finished thinking and asked her first question.
“Why did you hide your identity?”
In other words, it means why did you deceive yourself?
Just looking at her eyes, it didn’t seem like she was in a good mood.
That’s understandable, because Seun ended up defeating the boss monster, which was the last resort to taking first place.
Although he must have received quite a lot of merit points for participating in the battle, Seun ended up taking first place in the tutorial.
“Do you have anything to say? I wanted first place too. That’s all.”
There was no need to lie, nor was there any intention to do so.
Even if Riel is obsessed with being number one, he would not show unnecessary revenge for something that happened due to a difference in skill.
“but!”
As she was about to respond to Seun’s answer.
Kugugugu-
The cliff began to crumble.
As the tutorial ended, the remaining land began to disappear into the sea.
“I don’t know who you are, but let’s get moving. Mr. Se-un, get on over there.”
“You! I won’t forgive you! Hehe, brother! Come here!”
“… … When I go back, I will definitely have to explain this properly.”
When everyone was getting ready to move, Se-woon, whose stamina had recovered somewhat, got up.
Then he walked straight towards the cliff.
“Mr. Se-un? Where are you going… … .”
“Clan, please take good care of me.”
“yes?”
“Go up to the first floor first. It’ll be safer than waiting at the entrance.”
“What are you talking about! Of course, Se-un should come with you!”
“I am…….”
Seun looked at the horizon of the vast sea.
Although the deliberation was long, the time until the choice was made was not that long.
The Demon God of Gluttony and the Demon God of Greed. Although he possesses the power of both demons, the tower is filled with players and monsters that are so powerful that they surpass even these.
To overcome that difficulty, we need more strength.
“There’s still work to be done here.”
“What is that… … !”
Taat!
Before anyone could stop him, Seun threw himself off the cliff.
To meet Leviathan, the jealous machine that sleeps in the collapsed sea of the tutorial.
