A passing constellation—they were familiar words. How could Park Muyeol forget? In the previous tense confrontation with Momori, it suddenly appeared out of nowhere and told him to dress up as a woman. However, its identity was still a mystery. “Who is this person?”
[A passing constellation says there is no need to know.]
“This cheap fellow... Hup!”
The sharp teeth of the werewolf bit at him. It almost ate Park Muyeol’s right hand holding the wooden sword. Nevertheless, the messages continued.
[A passing constellation is offering you a task.]
“What is this bullshi.... heook!”
This time, sharp claws aimed in front of him. Park Muyeol managed to dodge but his chest was scratched and blood flowed. The attack was so powerful that 1/3rd of his health was consumed in an instant.
“Kuock. This damn mutt.”
Park Muyeol widened the distance and stared at the werewolf with angry eyes.
The werewolf had lost its reason but its movements were still sharp and its attacks were piercing. Fortunately, he wasn’t over there.
Yes, he wasn’t over there.
“Kuhaaack!”
“That bastard is jumping.”
The werewolf jumped at an incredible speed and swung its claws in succession. It went crazy once it tasted blood. Park Muyeol managed to deflect the attacks with his sword but it was up to there. Park Muyeol was unable to attack and could only defend, yet he was cut again.
Blood flowed. This time, it was the left arm. Fortunately, Park Muyeol was a right-handed man but it was still a serious wound. More than half his health had been reduced.
[A passing constellation says it will lend its strength if you do a new task for it.]
“This crazy guy. Regardless of the task or not, someone is going to die. Are you going to just stand by and watch?”
[A passing constellation says she isn’t a man.]
“Fuck.”
Cool claw marks were engraved on the rock behind Park Muyeol as he turned to the side. The werewolf’s claws were sharp enough to cut rocks yet he was blocking it with a wooden sword. Of course, not everyone could do it.
[A passing constellation says that if you don’t want to do the task then it is okay to dress up as a woman.]
Sharp claws flew, cutting at the rocks like they were pieces of paper. Park Muyeol widened the distance from the werewolf with quick movements.
“This pervert... Look for someone else!”
[A passing constellation is looking at you with interested eyes.]
The werewolf rushed again. The cycle of evading and widening the distance repeated dozens of times. Almost everything was avoided, even the really dangerous ones. Anyone who saw it would’ve admired it but the attacked Park Muyeol was in a critical state.
The werewolf’s hind kick pushed him into a corner. Suddenly, he had less than 10% health left. There was no chance. His legs had started to lose strength after such a long battle.
“Kuock. Shit... I didn’t expect to be bitten to death by a mutt.”
Of course, he wouldn’t really die. However, it was a shame for Park Muyeol who had beaten wild boars in the mountains. The werewolf’s large hand grabbed his waist and lifted him. Sharp teeth gleamed coolly. “Grrruk.”
“What are you looking at? You bastard!!!”
The wooden sword in his hand struck the werewolf on the forehead.
[A passing constellation is laughing at your spirit.]
The werewolf growled angrily and revealed its sharp teeth. Park Muyeol didn’t miss this gap.
“Kuaaack!” The werewolf screamed as it was stabbed in the right eye. Park Muyeol took advantage of this to escape. It was quite serious and blood dripped from the werewolf’s eyes. Now there was no vision in the right eye.
“Grrrruk!” Another sharp claw flew but since the werewolf had lost its depth perception, it didn’t reach him. Park Muyeol continued attacking the wolf’s right side.
“Grrrruruk!”
“Oh my, I’m scared.”
The moment it turned its head, Park Muyeol quickly pulled away. He wanted to continuously attack but if he did, he would die. The amount of health he had left meant he would die with a slight touch. It was at this moment.
Awoooooo!
[The silver-furred werewolf, Silverfang, has pulled out an unknown power.]
[Silverfang’s stats are temporarily increased by 1.5 times.]
Something sticky and strange spread around him. It was a nightmarish black energy that seemed impossible to escape from.
Park Muyeol frowned. “What is this now? It has become even harder to kill. Cough.”
He should just run away.
Then the woman spoke.
[A passing constellation will allow you to use the power of Stick’s Protection.]
[From now on, you can use it freely without permission.]
“Stick’s Protection?”
Come to think of it, there was that setting. He just forgot about it because it was useless. However, it was a bit uncomfortable that this pervert was lending him power.
‘What is she thinking...’
[A passing constellation says she will lend you strength.]
“What do you intend?”
[A passing constellation says there is no hidden agenda.]
[A passing constellation says she just likes your spirit.]
“...You are a real pervert.”
Park Muyeol inserted more strength into the wooden sword held by Park Muyeol. At this moment, a huge energy erupted around him.
[The constellation skill ‘Stick’s Protection’ has been used.]
[The attack power of the wooden sword is doubled.]
[The attack speed of the wooden sword is increased by three times.]
[The wooden sword won’t break as long as this skill is in use.]
[Your strength has temporarily risen.]
The ground below him cracked. A power that couldn’t be described was covering his body.
‘...It is a tremendous power.’
It was unknown who this person was. There was no way to know her identity, other than the fact that she was a pervert who liked sticks. Still, one thing was for certain. ‘I’m sure she isn’t a human. This is a power that goes beyond the category of a human.’
It was only a god-like presence who could freely give this ability. He had met this pervert twice but he still needed to take care of the werewolf in front of him.
“Instructor Park Muyeol!”
His head turned as there was a shout along with the sound of footsteps. It was training director Kunta. Behind him were the trainees of Group 7 and Group 8 who had just escaped earlier. The other instructors followed as well. Kunta wanted to pull out his sword but Park Muyeol raised a hand to stop him.
“Wait. This is my prey.”
Kunta was feeling bewildered when Seongchan explained, “I don’t think you should help. Things are really excellent when my grandfather speaks like this.”
“Really?”
“Yes, Grandfather will never lose if he says this.”
There was a loud sound as Park Muyeol rushed forward. He collided with the werewolf radiating evil energy and there was a tremendous shockwave. However, it was Park Muyeol who was the overwhelming one. A tremendous amount of joy surrounded his body.
Stick’s Protection was much more powerful than he expected. The attack speed was tripled, allowing Park Muyeol to twist the direction of attack. The werewolf reached out to stop him but he reacted at a faster rate.
The watching Muksabal opened his mouth, “What is that old man...?”
Jekyll replied with a smile, “I don’t know anything else but I’m certain of one thing. He is a monster.”
Baroque was still silently watching.
“......”
It wasn’t just them. The mouths of the other instructors were wide open and couldn’t be closed. Momori was staring blankly as he supported Tarmo.
“What the hell...”
“Momori, didn’t you have a close match with him...?”
“I thought so... It doesn’t seem like it now.”
“I can only say that it is crazy. Kuoock.”
“Don\'t get excited. Your wounds are very deep.”
“Anyone who isn’t excited when seeing this isn’t a person.”
“That\'s right.”
The word ‘ruthless’ didn’t fit well. Park Muyeol felt a tremendous sense of liberation and all his senses were on edge. He remembered what Chuntaek had said the last time they drank together.
‘Muyeol, in that place, I felt alive for the first time in ages.’
In fact, Park Muyeol hadn’t believed it at that time but he seemed to understand now. What did it feel like to be alive?
“Grrrruk!”
The young werewolf cried out at the baptism of the stick and didn’t dare to even swing its claws. It was desperate to stop Park Muyeol but it wasn’t possible. The wooden sword rapidly changed its orbit and violently struck the werewolf’s head.
[The werewolf’s brain is shaking from the powerful blow.]
[Temporarily entered a ‘concussion’ state.]
The werewolf’s arms and legs were bruised and Park Muyeol struck its head several times with a wooden sword. Finally, the giant silver werewolf fell.
[Your level has risen! x4]
[You have earned an unbelievable achievement!]
[The title ‘One Who Killed a Werewolf with a Stick’ has been acquired.]
[Wolf-type monsters will have a 20% reduction in defense when they encounter you.]
[The silver-furred werewolf, Silverfang’s Mane has been acquired.]
[The silver-furred werewolf, Silverfang’s Leather has been acquired.]
[Bead Fragment Dyed in Darkness has been acquired.]
“It is damn persistent.”
Park Muyeol walked toward Kunta while holding Silverfang’s Mane in his hand. Then he spoke while holding the mane, “Did we win?”
“Huh? Ah, yes, probably.”
“Then I’ll now officially quit as an instructor. It’s so difficult that I can’t stand it. Shit.”
Everyone nodded silently.

Day dawned and I walked through Henry’s field. I had tickle tortured Kis last night and was able to get more information than I thought. Based on it, Joseph was sent to Fortren. First of all, I entered to pull out all the mandragoras here. However, it wasn’t as easy as I thought.
“Kiyaaaaak!”
“Aish. Noisy guys.”
They were noisy even with earplugs equipped. If I had pulled them out without the earplugs, there would’ve been temporary paralysis. Fortunately, Henry\'s house had earplugs that were very useful. I quickly removed the leaves and fruits from the mandragora’s head and put them in a large basket. As mentioned earlier, the leaves had a sleeping effect and the fruits became the main ingredient of the drugs. Additionally, this noisy body...
“I will make diced radish kimchi with it.”
The torso of the mandragora was sliced into cubes and went into another basket. Kim Sujeong saw it and asked, “Are you going to make diced radish kimchi with it?”
“Yes, it looks like radish.”
“It does look very similar to the radish head that appears in advertisements [1].”
“It will be delicious if mixed well.”
In this way, one of the four fields were cleared. Kim Sujeong asked, “Then what are you going to plant in these fields?”
“Who knows? I haven\'t thought about it yet.”
Now my secondary class was a ‘farmer.’ At first, it was nice to have fields but in fact, it was tiring labor. In the past, I helped my father-in-law with farm work but now I was old. I hadn’t done it in ages and it was so hard I was going to die.
“How about Aiolia?”
“Aiolia?”
“I heard from Kerenos the other day that you have Aiolia seeds.”
“Oh, I forgot about that.”
I was a bit sad to see the Aiolia disappear after Windia went through that disaster. Of course, it has improved a lot due to Punghee.
“Puuuung?” Punghee floated from the top of my head to Kim Sujeong. The appearance of her flowing white hair was quite cute.
“So cute. What should I do~”
As a note, Punghee could make a curtain of wind to block the mandragoras’ screams. I was a bit surprised she had such power. Still, she was a sacred creature of the wind so it was natural. Then I remembered that Punghee liked Aiolia. She would often chew on them and it seemed like it was because the Aiolia was a wind-related food ingredient. These days, I have been focused on raising Punghee and the Aiolia was like healthy food for her.
Additionally, there was the Wind Flying Kick Technique. Alexus’ 500 year old Aiolia was eaten by Punghee. It was a pity when I thought about it again but it was hard to reverse what had already happened. I needed a 10 year old Aiolia to use it...
Hrmm, I could only raise it myself.
“I’m going to plant Aiolia.”
I immediately started to sow the Aiolia seeds that Flora had given me. It was while doing a moonwalk.
