Chapter 123: Reunion
[The sight of those who got in contact with the blood of despair will be limited.]
[You have an invincible body that can ignore and resist all kinds of abnormal states.]
[You have resisted an abnormal state.]
The first dish from God’s Dishes! Minhyuk was able to receive an invincible body that could ignore and resist all kinds of abnormalities when he ate the Pig Trotter Set. Minhyuk watched as Root and Varen fell down as they lost their sight. Then, another player appeared, giggling weirdly not too far away from them. Minhyuk’s brows furrowed at the sight. Then, he took a look at the soboro bread that he had taken out a bit earlier because he was hungry.
\'Gasp...!\'
Minhyuk was left in shock. It was the last piece of his ‘crispy-on-the-outside-but-soft-on-the-inside’ soboro bread! However, his soboro bread was now covered in blood! His body trembled. He gazed at the bread for a moment and thought,?\'My precious soboro... bread...!\'
Unaware of the tragedy and grave mistake that he had committed, the man continued to laugh and giggle at them. Minhyuk’s anger reached its peak when he heard the man’s atrocious laughter. That was when he made up his mind.
‘I will take revenge for my soboro bread!’
There seemed to be only one method to kill the person that had defiled his soboro bread. Minhyuk was sure that he and Root could easily deal with the rest of the troops once he had dealt with this person. So, Minhyuk began acting. When the man looked like he wanted to go in for the kill, Minhyuk blocked his sword. The moment the man asked him in disbelief, he answered with all his might!
Slaaaaash!
Ellie’s Sword was covered with a red energy as a strong force gathered around it. The ground even vibrated loudly with the strength of the force. The man, Kohei, had a gut feeling. He thought,?\'It\'s dangerous...!\'
Then, Ellie\'s Sword deflected Kohei\'s sword.
Clang!
Minhyuk quickly narrowed the distance as he attacked Kohei fiercely.
\'I have to stop him!\'?Kohei thought, quickly using his defensive skills.
[The Cursed Shield.]
[Creates a shield made out of cursed beings.]
Crack, crack, crack!
Bones sprouted out from the ground! The bone fragments quickly formed into a square shield. Kohei finally breathed a sigh of relief after hiding behind the shield. But then…
[Scattering Sword.]
[A single attack will deal six additional damages with each instance dealing additional 30% damage.]
Bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang!
The first blow shook the shield strongly. The second blow created a small crack in the shield. The third blow widened the small crack. And in the fourth blow, Kohei could hear an ominous sound.
Crack!
And by the fifth blow…
Crumble!
The bone shield was broken into pieces!
Thud!
"Ack!" Kohei was struck dumb! A sword squeezed through and struck him on his abdomen, bringing in consecutive damages!
"Ugh!"
Blood spurted out of Kohei’s mouth. Before he could be pushed back any further, Kohei moved his hand that was holding his bloody red sword.
Shwaaaaa!
[Curse God\'s Greed for Blood.]
[Exchange your HP with your opponent\'s HP.]
[Using Curse God\'s Greed for Blood has a risk, all stats decrease by 1.]
However, before Kohei could celebrate, the next notification made his brows furrow further.
[Curse God\'s Greed for Blood has failed.]
Curse God\'s Greed for Blood could only be used thrice per day. It was both an effective and risky skill. Kohei once again tried the skill on the Frying Pan player in front of him.
[Curse God\'s Greed for Blood.]
[Exchange your HP with your opponent\'s HP.]
[Using Curse God\'s Greed for Blood has a risk, all stats decrease by 1.]
[Curse God\'s Greed for Blood has failed.]
\'What the hell!\'
Right now, Kohei was finally sure that all abnormal status and conditions were laid to waste in front of Minhyuk.
\'How in the world...!\'
Kohei was not sure what he would do after, but there was one thing that he was sure about. If he did not recover now, then he would die with a single slash. When Minhyuk moved to attack him again, Kohei made a split-second decision and turned his skill towards the soldier beside him.
[Curse God\'s Greed for Blood.]
[Exchange your HP with your opponent\'s HP.]
[All of your stats have been reduced by 1.]
[The exchange was successful.]
"Keuuaaaaack!" The soldier beside him screamed and rolled on the floor while Kohei\'s wounds recovered at a speed visible to the naked eye.
"F*cking shit…" Kohei said, brows furrowing as he made a decision. In the future, he would need to find a way to fight without the curses. His \'The One Who Corrupts\' skill was a skill that would rot his opponents\' skin the moment he touched them. And his \'Curse God\'s Roar\' skill was a skill that would reduce his opponents\' attack power and hit rate by 40%. However, even though he had these great skills, all of them were useless in front of Minhyuk. In other words, Minhyuk was the worst enemy to match up against.
\'No, I can still win...!\'
In fact, even though all of Kohei’s skills were taken out of the equation, his strength would still be at least at that of a Level 280. In truth, his sheer force should be at Level 300, but the Cursed Knight\'s skills needed a lot of MP, so he invested in his WIS for quite a bit. Even so, his raw power was still at Level 280. It was more than enough for him to overpower a man with just his physical strength and skills.
\'What\'s more, he\'s still low-leveled....\'
If he lost to him, then Kohei would be deeply shamed.
"Phew!" Minhyuk took a deep breath. Varen and Root were looking straight at him. Before they knew it, they were already released from the Blind Man\'s Despair. Then, he said, "You should go first."
Root was left speechless when he saw Minhyuk fight. He thought,?\'W…what kind of chef is this....?!\'
As soon as he regained his sight, Root saw Kohei the Cursed Knight. He was quite a well-known figure but Minhyuk was trampling him.
\'I…I am being accompanied by some ridiculously strong people...!\'
Genie could hold back more than ten archers all on her own, and Minhyuk could easily overpower Kohei!
"I understand!" Root said. Root was also someone that could be considered a high-leveled player. In addition, not many people could follow his arrows and his accuracy was top-notch. He quickly ran away with Varen as the soldiers?moved?to pursue them.
The moment Minhyuk tried to attack the soldiers…
Clang!
…Kohei moved to stop him. When Minhyuk took a step forward…
Shwaaaa!
…Kohei’s sword quickly slashed at him.
Swoosh!
Vwooom!
A gap was created and Kohei’s sword was able to strike down at him from above. Kohei knew the moment Minhyuk was in his range. He thought,?‘I caught you...!’
Kohei’s sword was the epic grade Sword of Destruction! A direct hit on an armor would even create an armor break effect. However, this effect would only be triggered if the player had a higher attack than the defense of the opponent. However, Kohei believed that he had enough power to break the defenses and destroy any armor to pieces.
Once I break his armor, his armor will fall down into pieces and I’ll be able to kill him all at once!
But…
Scratch, scratch, scratch!
…To his dismay, the armor did not break apart, instead, only a small line was created on top of it.
‘...How high is this armor’s defensive power?!’?Kohei thought, eyes widening in disbelief.
“Step.”
Minhyuk quickly narrowed the distance between them. Right now, he could take two steps and attack at the same time. Kohei was caught in surprise when he saw Minhyuk move a meter in a blink of an eye. What was more surprising to him was the sword that stabbed through him in a flash.
Clang!
The first strike was blocked with his amazing reflexes, but the second strike was an entirely different matter.
Stab!
“Ugh!” Kohei groaned and staggered.
‘Crazy... Why does he have these excellent skills?!’
He fought Rovan quite often before, so he believed that Minhyuk who had defeated Rovan was someone easy to trample on if they ever fought. Yet, now that Minhyuk was fighting him, he realized how great Minhyuk’s talent and skill were. However! He would not be called Kohei if he faltered here! A powerful force slowly gathered in his sword.
[Curse God’s Roar!]
[A powerful Ghost’s Curse will pressure the enemy and explode once the attack is successful.]
Huge skeletons popped out behind Kohei, flying up in the air, before shooting straight towards Minhyuk. Every skeleton had a weapon in its hands, things like swords, axes, and spears.
[Kihehehehehehe!]
[Kihihihihihihihihihi!]
Clang, clang!
Clang, clang!
While preventing their attack, a sword flew past Minhyuk’s defenses.
At that moment…
Baaaaaang!
…A powerful explosion erupted that caused Minhyuk to fly back.
“Kgghk!”
Almost 20% of Minhyuk’s HP was cut down in a flash. The skeletons approached him once again as Kohei narrowed the distance between them.
Baaang!
Another strike flew past Minhyuk’s defense. He rolled on the floor and negated the explosion as he hurriedly used Rampant Sword.
[Rampant Sword.]
[A flurry of rampant swords with additional 35% attack power will be created for 7 seconds.]
Slash!
Slaaaash!
Slaaaaaash!
The flurry of swords passed through the skeletons. The power behind the sword was so huge that the skeletons could not withstand it. In the end, the skeletons broke down into pieces, before scattering in the air and disappearing. Minhyuk hurriedly took a chocolate bar out of his inventory and ate it.
Fwiiiish!
[Absorption Conversion]
[You can recover 30~40% of your HP.]
Minhyuk’s body recovered rapidly as he ate the chocolate bar. Then, he exhaled and thought,?‘I should finish this fast.’
Minhyuk’s Absorption Conversion would not be available for the time being. Besides, he did not know when the enemies would come in droves. He knew that the longer their fight dragged on, the more disadvantageous the situation he was in. Kohei also realized the same thing.
Right now, their fight was broadcasted all over the country with plenty of real-time comments flooding in.
[lkvkjk313: Wow, Kohei’s being volleyed! So refreshing! Kyaa!]
[glfqada: ??? Isn’t Kohei winning?]
[BestSight: Hehehehe. I think he is. But, I think that person is the Frying Pan Killer.]
[bqwdl3: F*ck. The Frying Pan Killer was just in Shrieking Hills a few days ago. How is he fighting with Kohei now? Can you raise your level by over 80 levels in just a few days?]
While the Ares Guild was quite confident in their victory, the other players watching the live broadcast were debating over whether they would win or not.
[bdfklfgfgl: Now that I’ve read what other people thought, I think he really is the Frying Pan Killer. Right?]
[TingtingTaengTaeng: Yepyep. I think he’s the Frying Pan Killer too. There was a screenshot of him being in Salov Land near Raven Village just earlier. I think it was him since he used that Bbiiiiii cry in there.]
[PoopyAnt: Hehehehe, Frying Pan Killer? I think he’s just a high-leveled player who’s cosplaying as the Frying Pan Killer. Does leveling up that fast in a short amount of time even make sense? If he’s really the Frying Pan Killer then I’ll delete my character right now. Hehe. Take a ss right now.]
[Calcal: Oh. I’m taking a ss of the going-to-be-deleted character.]
[OleCole: I’m also taking a ss!]
Back to the two men who did not know anything about the bet…
Kohei prepared for his last strike. Black energy blew out of his body as his veins slowly expanded, and they began to fill with black blood. His sword also slowly became black. He slashed his sword and a black current flew straight towards Minhyuk. This was one of Kohei’s most powerful attacks.
[Curse God’s Battle]
[A powerful curse that can destroy everything.]
Shwaaaaaaa!
Minhyuk keenly felt that he would not be able to dodge the speeding black current. He quickly took out the frying pan hanging on his back!
‘If I can’t avoid it, then I will stop it!’
[Frying Pan Gigantification.]
[You can adjust the size of your frying pan depending on the mana that you will input.]
Minhyuk’s frying pan turned large enough to cover his body. The moment the black current and Minhyuk’s frying pan collided…
Baaaang!
…A loud sound shook the heavens and earth as a thick amount of dust flew in the air!
Kohei thought,?‘Crazy! I can’t believe that Curse God’s Battle can’t even break through his frying pan...!’
Usually, once Curse God’s Battle struck an artifact, the artifact’s durability would drop to zero all at once. However, the man in front of him successfully defended himself with a frying pan. The moment the black current disappeared…
Shwaaaa!
…Minhyuk’s sword pierced through the thick dust flying around and stabbed at Kohei’s abdomen. Kohei looked down at his bloody abdomen and spat out… “...F*cker?!”
Then, his body crumbled down. The battle was finally over. Minhyuk quickly turned around to follow behind Varen and Root.
Back to the real-time comments section!
[dgsfad: The frying pan of the Frying Pan Killer becomes gigantic. Certification, done! Yeye.]
[gadfb24: PoopyAnt, you have to delete your character. (Photo)]
[zzdwaql235: Here’s a receipt too! (Photo)]
[Kellog: Congratulations~ Delete character~ Congratulations~ Congratulations on your character’s deletion~]
[CurryTheBest: Character deletion. Congrats, congrats. Receipts needed! You are quite bra…. No. I’ll slap you on the knee! I’ll hit it for you!]
[PoopyAnt: ...OMG?]
The player with the nickname PoopyAnt looked like he was left speechless.
