Kill the Hero

< 36.3. Eligibility Test (3). >

6.

Before returning to the past, Kim Woo-jin was a loyal member of the Messiah Guild.

At that time, Kim Woo-jin played two roles in the Messiah Guild.

One was, of course, playing a hound.

The other was raising a new hound.

It wasn't just Kim Woo-jin.

It was natural for skilled players to act as instructors within the Messiah Guild when they had to attack the dungeon with internal personnel rather than collaborate with other guilds.

Of course, the players in charge of Kim Woo-jin were different from the regular players of the Messiah Guild.

Kim Woo-jin was responsible for listening to the sounds of poison in the Messiah Guild.

It wasn't a normal job.

Players of the Messiah Guild were essentially considered poisonous, literally like the Cultists, who risked their lives to save the world by being members of the Messiah Guild.

Even within the Messiah Guild, listening to the sound of poison was the same type of alcohol that only exceeded 60 degrees.

Those who regarded the chaotic hell training as a picnic, were of all kinds.

When I met Kim Woo-jin, I snorted as if it were petty; when Kim Woo-jin ordered something, I ignored it; and when Kim Woo-jin ordered something, I only treated people without Kim Woo-jin.

But after Kim Woo-jin's training, when he left the dungeon gate, everyone had the same reaction.

“Yuck!”

Once you leave the Dungeon Gate, you are relieved of the fact that you survived and leave everything inside.

“You son of a bitch. I just fucking blew him away. ”

He stared at Kim Woo-jin like he was going to kill him.

Of course, most of them became deaf when they met Kim Woo-jin, but sometimes there were special ones.

The kind that doesn't die, but rather speaks my own words.

“Since I bought you beef, I'll let you go this time. You're lucky. ”

Lee Jina was the latter, of course, and Kim Woo-jin smiled lightly in his appearance.

‘He's a great guy. ’

Meanwhile, his men, who were waiting outside the Dungeon Gate, begin to move swiftly to clear up the situation.

“Bob! What to eat! Meat!"

Lee Jina asked them for food first, and his men brought her food as if it were natural.

In that mess, Kim Woo-jin activated his stats window.

[Kim Woo-jin]

- Level: 78

- Lighting: proxy for the dark world

- Ability: HP (236 +490)/Energy (2 +209)/Magic Power (3 +399)

- Achievements: 61

- Extra Points: 0

‘Level 78.’

Kim Woo-jin's expression of seeing his status window was not very good.

What I'm seeing is like all the harvest I got from this dungeon.

‘I still haven't grasped my limits. ’

One of Kim Woo-jin's original goals, his limitations, was ultimately uncovered.

‘We must attack the dungeon again. ’

Meaning that it needs to be tested again.

“There · · · · · · · · ·. ”

Then Kim Woo-jin, who was planning the next dungeon raid, approached his subordinate.

There was no long conversation.

As soon as he received the feature phone handed to him, the phone started ringing and Kim Woo-jin immediately answered the phone.

- How was the dungeon?

“It was refreshing.”

Then Kim Woo-jin must have failed.

Kim Woo-jin smiled at the words of Se-chan.

‘It's working. ’

He had a similar idea as himself.

“So what's been going on? ”

There was no special expectation in Kim Woo-jin's voice speaking.

‘Nothing special happens in December this year. ’

Current date is December 10, 2023.

‘The real big event starts in January. ’

It was December that Kim Woo-jin remembered, just before the big event that was about to start in January.

- Postponed a seventh-floor raid on the Messiah Guild. I don't know the exact time, but it's been postponed about a month and a half.

However, the description that followed forced Kim Woo-jin to change his face.

“Acting?”

Even Kim Woo-jin asked as if he didn't believe the notice.

“Is that information reliable? ”

Again, I asked twice.

- I'm sure.

Instead of answering, Kim Woo-jin started rubbing his hands around his mouth.

I looked a little nervous, unlike usual.

"The Messiah Guild postponed the Seventh Floor Dungeon Invasion? ’

That was a shocking story.

And it was shocking.

Attacking the Seventh Floor Dungeon in the Messiah Guild was practically a proof of the existence of the Messiah Guild.

‘Se-jun Lee moved. ’

Furthermore, Lee Se-jun was the basis for him being followed as the Savior.

But changing that means there was a huge movement inside the Messiah Guild.

‘In my memory, the core force for the first 7-story dungeon raid was nine. Of those nine who can move now. ’

Then a man came to mind in Kim Woo-jin's head.

‘Shrine.’

After remembering the name, Kim Woo-jin takes his hand away from his mouth.

“The palace may have rebelled. ”

- I think so, too. As for the palace, everything that has happened recently has to be unpleasant.

He also said his thoughts.

- Because of someone less fortunate to join Isaac Ivanov's party. Even a seven-story dungeon makes it hard to guarantee the death of a palace during a siege. Of course, I want to do my best to deal with the ridicule.

He was also anticipating the situation at the level Kim Woo-jin thought.

Therefore, Se-chan also came to the same conclusion as Kim Woo-jin.

- So the new palace.

“They'll send an all-star member of their own to kill me. Or try to assassinate them in real life. ”

Shrine, he will do everything in his power to kill Kim Woo-jin.

Kim Woo-jin and Oh Se-jan were silent for a moment.

- So what do you want to do?

Then, out of the silence, Oh Se Chan asked a question, and Kim Woo Jin answered his mind.

“We'll have to take it one step at a time. I'm going to start with a proper meal on my way back. ”

- Dinner?

“The beef there was delicious. ”

At that moment, Lee Jina, who was eating chocolate pie, shouted.

“Did you call me? ”

Oh Se-chan shouted as well.

- This time, no more than 10 people. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no

Kim Woo-jin hesitated.

- Oh, sorry. Suddenly I have a bad memory. So, what's next?

Kim Woo-jin answered the question as if it were natural.

“I have to meet Park Yong-wan. ”

7.

The top floor of the guild headquarters, which was originally an ordinary office, was glamorous enough to remind me of the penthouse at some point.

It's so glamorous to imagine using this place as my home.

However, this spectacular Pentpous owner's expression did not seem to have anything to do with the word "fascinating."

“So it's a no? ”

Park Yong-wan, he looked at Kim Woo-jin in front of his eyes with his horse. His eyes were colder than ever.

That's why it was so scary.

Park Yong-wan was already a monster who could not be easily defeated by modern weapons.

“I would have ordered you to pass somehow. ”

“I'm sorry."

It was no wonder Kim Woo-jin bowed his head in front of him.

Park Yong-wan frowned and said.

“If you hadn't offered to invest in Isaac Ivanov, none of this would have happened. ”

“I'm sorry."

“No more apologies, let's hear the excuses. You're not even prepared to make excuses, are you? ”

Then Kim Woo-jin raised his head.

“The power of my poison has been recognized. But it was pointed out that there was not enough versatility. ”

“Is that the only excuse? ”

“I've been asked if you can help me when I need you. ”

In front of that, Park Yong-wan opened his posture a little.

“Enough to leave it as an option, is that it? ”

“Yes.”

Park Yong-wan's expression lightly loosened.

‘You're not very interested, are you? ’

In fact, when Park Yong-wan heard from Kim Woo-jin that he had failed Isaac Ivanov's qualification test, he wondered what to do with him.

to throw out out-of-use supplies, to give away someone else, to sell something like that.

“Hmm.”

However, given the current situation, Isaac Ivanov did not abandon Kim Woo-jin completely.

“Subra · · · · · · · · · · ·. ”

As I said earlier, Isaac Ivanov was willing to take Kim Woo-jin with him if he needed it.

It's not group 1, but it means you will treat group 2.

In other words, if you show me something more, it also meant that Group 1 was possible.

‘What should we do? ’

Of course, Park Yong-wan did not intend to invest more here with Kim Woo-jin just for that reason.

What was worthless was thrown away, because it was a human being called Park Yong-wan.

At least Park Yong-wan knows Kim Woo-jin.

A man who makes decisions about things other than his own interests without hesitation.

Because of this, even the country can sell without hesitation.

“More than that, Isaac Ivanov. ”

So Kim Woo-jin took out the card that he had prepared.

“· · · · · · It looks like it's coming from the current guild. ”

“What?"

Park Yong-wan's expression changed in the appearance of a shocking card.

“What are you talking about? ”

“I heard him mention the existence of tankers and wizards over and over again during his conversations with colleagues in Russian. We need a new tank, we need to add the most deficient magic firepower, and that was the conversation. ”

“Recruit additional party members? ”

“I felt that they did not intend to be supported by their Mokosh guild. Honestly, coming out of this situation is the same as leaving the guild. ”

At that point, Park Yong-wan started beating the calculator again in his head.

"Look at this? ’

Isaac Ivanov, his present value has grown beyond belief.

That's why so many guilds were after Isaac Ivanov.

No, I wasn't greedy enough, but I was prepared to pay a huge price just for my guild or name from Isaac Ivanov's mouth.

Isaac's on the freelance market? ’

How much would it be worth if there was a chance to recruit Isaac Ivanov?

However, Park Yong-wan shook his head.

‘No, Isaac Ivanov is unlikely to join another guild. If he had, he would have moved the guild a long time ago. ’

It is unlikely that Isaac Ivanov will enter a new guild based on his current trajectory.

‘The guild doesn't come out. Instead, it is more likely that after you have created your own party, you will be able to walk in a similar manner as before. ’

Instead, I was more likely to participate in a dungeon attack as a party between guilds.

At least it was for Park Yong-wan.

‘Woojin Kim, that's why you're testing him. ’

Furthermore, I could see why Isaac Ivanov was interested in Kim Woo-jin.

‘Yes, prepare for the fourth floor. There are monsters on the fourth floor that cannot be controlled by their physical strength alone. ’

When it came to that, the recycling value of Kim Woo-jin in Park Yong-wan's head rose.

“If you get one more chance, will you be able to pass? ”

Kim Woo-jin answered the question.

“This is absolutely impossible. ”

“What if I level up? ”

“It's not that level of a problem. Isaac Ivanov's strength is different from mine. It's not just about level. ”

“What if I add an item? ”

“Giving Isaac Ivanov something like that would be a lot more rewarding. ”

Park Yong-wan nodded in a cold answer.

‘You're looking at the situation exactly. ’

Park Yong-wan would have abandoned him if he had said here that Kim Woo-jin could do it on a clumsy note.

However, Kim Woo-jin made a cold calculation at this moment.

He was trying to figure out why he failed the qualification test.

“So what do you think? ”

That means you know how to pass.

“It is true that my poison will be added to Isaac Ivanov's abilities. But he wants more than that. I don't want 2 to come out in a one plus circle, I want 3 to come out in synergy. ”

Park Yong-wan smiled.

‘Obviously, you're following my luck. ’

Park Yong-wan picked up the envelope that was placed on the table in front of him with that nasty smile.

“This was your reward when you accepted. ”

Soon after, he pulls out a single page of skill that emits a golden glow inside the envelope.

[Sighs]

- Acquisition Requirement: Agent of the Dark World

- Acquisition Level: Level 70

- Skill Effect: Quickly corrupts the target's corpse, creating a syphilis. The higher the skill rank, the stronger the power of the Serpent and the faster the Serpent is created.

Unique grade skills, reading.

“Advance payment.”

Park Yong-wan handed the skill page to Kim Woo-jin and said.

“You must pass. Nothing after that. ”

However, Kim Woo-jin asked Park Yong-wan instead of receiving the skill page.

“But what chance do you have of Isaac Ivanov? ”

“That's my job, and you only care about what you do. ”

Virtually the same thing as the last notice.

Then Kim Woo-jin also didn't ask any more questions.

“I will change Isaac Ivanov's mind at any cost. ”

Just spit it out and accept the skill page.

8.

As soon as Woojin Kim left, Park Yong-wan immediately called his assistant.

Park Yong-wan said to his assistant who appeared soon.

“Tell Isaac Ivanov. I want you to test Woojin Kim again. ”

He said with a slightly embarrassing expression.

“What if they refuse? ”

“What can I do? I have to bribe him. Fire Golem, do you still have that skill page? ”

“Yes.”

“There's the Skeleton Wizard. Give me two. ”

Two.

It was quite an attractive bribe.

However, Park Yong-wan knew.

It's not easy to convince Isaac Ivanov of the two.

‘Isaac Ivanov has recruited more party members, but if there is another patron among them, his investment so far has become worthless. ’

And now Isaac Ivanov's ransom is very expensive.

‘We need to throw a stronger bait. ’

That's why Park Yong-wan took out the bait that he had saved.

“And tell me more about it. Do you want to buy a ring from Osiris? ”
