Kill the Hero

1.

Nothing scares me more than war.

Most people, however, feel a more serious threat when a madman picks up a sword and stabs a man on the spot than when there was a war.

It was the same again.

“If we don't get rid of Isaac Ivanov, we're in danger. ”

Isaac Ivanov, no one knows he's become dangerous.

So no one denied or opposed the fact that he had to be killed.

But no one ever really put his life on the line for that.

Kim Woo-jin, that's why he never stops talking on this stage.

“The Messiah Guild won't leave Isaac Ivanov alone. Johann Gerorg is proof of that. ”

Kim Woo-jin points with his finger at John Gerorg.

“The Messiah Guild is never a pacifist. They were hiring Johann Gerorg to get rid of Isaac Ivanov. It wasn't a clumsy employment, it was an employment with a lot of support. ”

Johann Georg presented evidence.

“The Messiah Guild that makes such attempts against the pursuers must not let their opponents get ahead of them. ”

Evidence that the Messiah Guild will never leave Isaac Ivanov standing on their heads.

Evidence that the threat coming at them is more dangerous than they think.

“The Messiah Guild will attack the Savior Guild with all its might. And of course, I'm going to clear the area before I hit Isaac Ivanov first. ”

Furthermore, Kim Woo-jin said the threat of the Messiah Guild would be targeted first, not around Isaac Ivanov.

The threat you face is closer than you think.

“Is there a way? ”

Then, for the first time, Park Yong-wan asked me how.

In fact, Park Yong-wan and Shakyra thought the same.

He recognized the threat.

The meaning of this position was to stop there.

The next step is to discuss how to kill Isaac Ivanov.

To make excuses you might not know.

If this gets into Isaac Ivanov's ear, I didn't just attend and comment on the same petty but truth-based excuses.

“How to catch the monster. ”

Park Yong-wan said this in such a situation, as if he had given up the excuse.

It was proof that he felt threatened enough to think that eliminating the threat was more important than leaving an excuse.

Kim Woo-jin asked.

“We have to find it somehow. ”

Unexpected answer.

However, no one expressed disappointment in that fact.

Commonly known as Isaac Ivanov, if it comes out so easily, that would be even weirder.

“But surely we're not the only ones who want Isaac Ivanov dead. ”

It was not that there was no hope at all.

There were so many people in the world who wanted Isaac Ivanov dead.

“There's still time. ”

They also now had time.

“Isaac Ivanov didn't plan to do this until the New Year. At the start of the new year, they will be preparing to attack the eighth floor dungeon, but they will certainly be watching the march of the Messiah Guild. ”

“Mind your manners?”

“The Messiah Guild will definitely challenge the eighth floor with a final blow to the dungeon. Then Isaac Ivanov will aim for a dungeon with a higher rank than such a Mesa Guild. ”

“If the Messiah Guild chooses a C rank dungeon, they will enter the B rank without looking back. ”

After that time, of course, the results were never pleasant.

“Yes, it is. ”

“Start the first strike on the eighth floor dungeon with a B rank and die. ”

The rest of Shakyra's grumbling nods.

“Well, I guess we'll just have to wait until New Year's. The Messiah Guild will also move after the dungeon attack is over. ”

Park Yong-wan continued, and everyone nodded again this time.

At that moment, Kim Woo-jin stood up.

“Then I'll part with you here today. If anything changes or happens, I'll let everyone know. ”

After finishing speaking, Kim Woo-jin turned away from everyone.

“Wait.”

Then Park Yong-wan caught him.

“How do I contact you? You can't use your personal contact information for this, can you? ”

Kim Woo-jin answered the question immediately.

“Build a cannon through a broker and I'll pass it on. ”

Kim Woo-jin who speaks did not turn his back.

I didn't show them my eyes that sank colder than ever.

“Happy New Year, then. ”

2024 came to an end.

2.

December 31, 2024.

At the end of 2024, it was about Isaac Ivanov.

[The weapon of Isaac Ivanov's Desert Knight is a weapon!]

[Isaac Ivanov has a skill that instantly kills monsters!]

Isaac Ivanov's Dungeon Attacker, which was expected to end once, came up every day rather than stopping, like the Il Drama.

- No, who the hell keeps doing this?

- I heard you filed a lawsuit. You still haven't figured it out?

It was a sight of the Sevier Guild's ambiguity to find the non-confidential person and not even file a lawsuit.

Some of them were questionable.

- It's unusual for a Savior Guild to tell someone about a lawsuit like this.

- Who the hell is that?

- Whoever he is, he's got some balls.

Who is this person who continues to tell stories in the unlikely event of a conflict with the Xavier Guild?

The same was true of his subordinates.

“Who would solve this kind of information? I'm guessing one of the men who participated in the attack on the dungeon. ”

“Whoever it is has a huge background. ”

“And it's a lot of money. Otherwise, you wouldn't have sold the information like this. ”

They also questioned who the information provider was.

He answered that question.

“It's me.”

“Yes?”

“It's me.”

All staff, including direct reports, who asked questions about the sudden confession, laughed.

The atmosphere also became strangely cool.

However, he said without regard to the missus.

“I did it. ”

A direct report responded.

“Why?”

“All humans know it anyway, but you don't have to hide it. ”

“Yes?”

“Isn't that right? The Messiah Guild, Frontier Guild, Goblin Guild, and Great One Guild all know the information, don't they? So, like all the other guilds that have been in close contact with them already know, what's the secret? ”

It was a reasonable word.

We made a confidentiality agreement, but there were too many targets and there was no guarantee that they would really keep it completely confidential.

“Above all, it's ancient information now. ”

In addition, information about the Seventh Floor Dungeon at this point was outdated information.

“Then · · · · · · · · ·. ”

“Okay, next up is the eighth floor. ”

Kim Woo-jin was planning to attack the dungeon on the eighth floor at least.

In that situation, there is no reason to hang on to the information on the seventh floor dungeon.

I began to feel nervous in the atmosphere of the left, which had been stretched out for a while at the words of Oh Se Chan.

‘Finally, the eighth floor. ’

"The order of the Messiah Guild has changed! ’

When the Savior Guild attacks an eight-story dungeon, it means that a completely different order will begin.

If anyone had known the situation, he would have been nervous.

In that tension, he blurted out to himself.

“Well, you can make money. ”

At that moment, all of my direct reports looked like that, yes.

‘That was it.’

‘That was it.’

Mischain said to the expression on his direct reports' faces.

“You don't think the biggest reason I release information right now is because of the money, do you? ”

“So it's not? ”

His direct report responded with a very serious expression because of that question.

“No, you're right. ”

He spit out an answer and looked at the watch.

‘Two hours left. ’

Two hours till New Year's Eve.

If it comes out, it's time to come out now. ’

The moment the brunch was waiting for something.

“Breaking news. ”

At that moment, something was waiting for me.

“The Messiah Guild has completed the dungeon raid. ”

The Messiah Guild, they're coming to the world before New Year's Eve.

3.

[The Messiah Guild finishes a dungeon attack before New Year's Eve!]

On December 31, the Messiah Guild succeeded in attacking the dungeon with two hours left in the New Year.

It was a great time.

It feels like the Savior is coming before the New Year.

The world was enthusiastic about the situation that we had to assume was designed by the Holy One.

- The heavens help the Messiah!

- No matter how great the Savior Guild was, the Messiah was the one who helped us!

- The Messiah is the true savior.

Such news was also immediately communicated to Kim Woo-jin.

Kim Woo-jin, who checked the contents with his smartphone in between the bushes under the dark night sky, turned off his smartphone.

And I was moved by it.

‘Finally. ’

That was it.

After that brief visit, Kim Woo-jin no longer meant anything to the return of the Messiah Guild.

Because I knew.

‘I deliberately timed it as expected. ’

The fact that it was staged.

It wasn't that hard.

Impossible if the dungeon attack was delayed unavoidably, but if the dungeon raid was going smoother than expected, then timing was not difficult.

‘Cause it wouldn't have been that hard. ’

Kim Woo-jin, who knew exactly what dungeon they were in, was even more confident that it was staged.

‘Se-joon Lee, it shouldn't be any more difficult for you. ’

It was none other than Lee Se-jun who entered the game.

Still recognised as the best player in the world, and therefore the Savior!

Right now, the seven-floor dungeon was never a threat to Lee Se-jun's power.

It was why Kim Woo-jin wanted to have a big meaning in the return of the Messiah Guild, but he couldn't.

Above all, there was something more important than that now.

‘But it's different from the eighth floor. ’

Problem is the eighth floor.

Once the eight-story dungeon was mostly a road class dungeon.

Loading means at least Legendary items are guaranteed, even if the rank is low.

In other words, it was that difficult a stage.

‘In a few moments, the ninth floor dungeon will appear. ’

But what was really important was not the eighth floor dungeon.

The world's first nine-story dungeon begins shortly after 2025.

‘Nine floors with no rank. ’

And that ninth floor dungeon doesn't have a rank.

‘The Last Dungeon. ’

There is a final dungeon in this game that is considered to be the end point.

That's why the Messiah Guild has been actively influencing the world since 2025.

so that no one can attack the ninth floor dungeon before the ninth floor dungeon is attacked, so that the world continues to turn into a game.

Such ambition remained the same today.

The moment you confirm the existence of the ninth floor dungeon, the Mesa Guild will feel a sense of urgency.

Especially when the Savior Guild was overcome by an unexpected rival, the urgency they felt was more likely than what Kim Woo-jin thought.

‘In this situation, the Messiah Guild might look completely different from what I know if I check the ninth floor dungeon. ’

Perhaps they could take off their masks of salvation.

Those who wanted to swallow the world might be willing to wear new masks for it.

‘Finish before then. ’

It was the worst-case scenario for Kim Woo-jin.

The fact that the game you're after looks completely different means that all the preparations to hunt it are meaningless.

In other words, Kim Woo-jin didn't have much time.

It was just now Kim Woo-jin was waiting there alone on the hillside of Hanlasan, Jeju Province.

Beep!

At that moment, Kim Woo-jin's smartphone watch vomited an alert.

I told him it was the new year.

At the same time, Azrang began to bloom in the sight of Kim Woojin and soon became a huge dungeon gate.

Kim Woo-jin reaches for the dungeon gate.

Then the dungeon information appeared before his eyes.

[Land of the Nine Tails]

- Dungeon floor: 8th floor

- Dungeon Difficulty: B-Rank

- Maximum number of entries: 999

- Entry Requirement: Level 250 or lower

- Prerequisite: Kill predators with nine tails!

- Assault Reward: Catalog

The land of the nine tails.

Kim Woo-jin takes his hand off the dungeon gate as soon as he confirms it.

Then he immediately dialed the saved number after lifting the feature phone.

- What's going on?

Then I heard Park Yong-wan's voice.

“This is the extension of the last story. ”

- Speak.

Park Yong-wan's voice sank very heavily and coldly the moment he heard Kim Woo-jin's words.

Then Kim Woo-jin told him.

“I just finished talking with Isaac Ivanov. Just as expected. He's about to enter a higher grade dungeon than the Messiah Guild. I know it's reckless. He's about to enter a dungeon with a really elite unit. Even at the cost of your life.

It's a math. ”

- It's a limb for us.

“Maybe it's an opportunity. It's a tough stage for Isaac Ivanov, so we have a chance to defeat him. ”

Is that what you're calling me to tell me?

“If you really want to kill Isaac Ivanov in that situation, there's something you need. ”

- Stuff?

“There is only one sword that can kill Aegis' shield and a legendary grade. ”

Kim Woo-jin smiled as he spoke.

“That's the only weapon a mercenary can stab Isaac Ivanov with. ”

Park Yong-wan remained silent for a while.

I was naturally silent.

How long has it been?

- Then who's the footballer?

Kim Woo-jin answered the question.

“I'll do it. ”

Park Yong-wan immediately replied.

- I'll talk to the hunter once.

At the end of the conversation, Kim Woo-jin closed the feature phone, and at the same time broke the feature phone.

Then I gazed silently at the dungeon gate in front of me.
