Reputation and jealousy

That was Ryan's habit that his party knew about.

What's the habit?

When he decided to kill someone who was in his way, Ryan always muttered, biting his thumbnail like that.

At this point, we are thinking of the best way to kill the opponent in our heads.

Most of Ryan's parties were in danger of seeing him like that.

Even Ryan's party members are not so good at meeting each other.

Rather, the large part is closer to the wicked.

But unlike Ryan, they are vicious people, even if they are vicious, and they avoid reckless behavior.

With Park Min-hyuk, you can see that he is a divine figure among the adventurers of Rootkart, and he has quite a powerful power just by looking at the face of hunting Demibeasts lately.

I was never willing to risk my life for the jealousy and envy of the party leader against such an enemy.

Unfortunately · · ·.

“Ron! Get your ass over here. ”

Ryan is not considerate enough to know his subordinates' position.

He summons one of his subordinates, who is well versed in pursuit.

“You wanted to see me, party master? ”

“Yes, you should find Park Min-hyuk's Node, find out where the camp is, and report to me. ”

“Are you playing? ”

“Yes. If we hit that bastard's lair now, he can take over the hunted carcass he's been stockpiling. The party's all pretty, so you can play with them before you put them in the store. ”

“Very well, Party Leader. ”

Lion said that his subordinates were half as helpless as if they had no choice, and half as expected, thinking they might run out of Congolese on themselves.

However, when Ryan made his decision, no other theory was accepted at this party.

Unlike Minhyuk, it's a party where Ryan wields absolute power.

Ron was originally an adventurer from a hunter.

Skills were moderately advanced by the user, but there was one skill that was much better than others.

It was a follow-up.

Originally, skilled hunters were able to infer which animals moved here for a few hours before even looking at a single footprint.

A man named Ron was far superior to the average hunter.

He heard the rumors and knew.

There aren't any Half Elves and three at Minhyuk's party.

It was clear that if he tried to dig up the back of Minhyuk himself, he would be in range of the Spirit's search. So Ron wasn't chasing after Min-hyuk, he was searching for the place of Min-hyuk based on the footprints and signs of battle.

Looking at the difference in time from any point to any point, Ron slowly searched for the path to the place where the battle took place, missed paths, etc. and found the home of the reform.

And finally.

“Found it. Here it is. ”

Min Hyuk found a cave that was used as a temporary shelter for this expedition.

The entrance of the cave was disguised as a tree, but when I cleaned it up and went inside the cave, I saw a pile of Demibeast by-products and supplies consumed by the party members in several carts.

“That's a hell of a pile. What the hell? How many of these can you stack? ”

I heard that Min-hyuk's party members were holding Demibeasts at the fastest pace.

However, I also saw the amount of open mouth that wouldn't shut up.

How much would it cost to convert all this?

“I'd better report this quickly. ”

Ron hurries out of the cave, clears his tracks, and reports to the party master Ryan.

“Really? That much? ”

“Yes, it was about as much as we have right now. ”

“Dog piglets · ·. You've done a lot. But it's all mine now. ”

Ryan shows his teeth and says to Ron,

“You didn't turn your back, did you? ”

“Yes, I erased the trace perfectly and acted on it. ”

“Good. Then let's get down to business. I'll ambush you and take you out in a surprise attack. ”

Ryan gets up from his seat, saying,

Then one of the party members said to Ryan in a hurry.

“By the way, Party Leader, They're working with the animists. The ambush doesn't seem to work. ”

“Hmm · · · · · ·. I see. Should we hit them head-on? ”

“I don't think that's a win-win either. The Party Leader won't lose to a kid like that, but don't you think it's best to avoid the risk? ”

In fact, even if he confronted them head-on, it was obvious that he would try to deprive his minions of the power of Min-hyuk by letting them fight Min-hyuk first.

He was a servant who knew his disposition, so he tried to persuade him gently with his intimate father.

“That's right · · · · · ·. ”

Luckily, the persuasion seemed to have worked.

Basically, Ryan is a man who tortures the weak and seeks only unilateral victory, not a man who hopes for strength and brawl with a warrior's struggle.

“But what do I do if I'm not ambushed or confronted? ”

“I have a plan. ”

“What's that? ”

“Hey, Party Leader, why don't you listen for a second? ”

Then he whispers something to Ryan and smiles satisfactorily on his face.

“Not bad. Well, if it works out, I'll give you one of the women he's got. ”

“Thank you, Party Leader. ”

Ryan sends one of his men as a messenger.

What the messenger will tell Min-hyuk is that he wants to attack a Demibeast appendix, so he wants to attack them together.

So here's what Ryan's men thought.

As long as Min-hyuk is acting with the Spirit Master, it is impossible to launch a surprise attack.

However, if you collide head-on, the damage will be great and you may lose.

So, instead of sneaking up on him, he decided to approach him confidently and stab him.

Convince them that an alliance is needed between the parties to meet up close and then suddenly strike.

So I decided to catch the victory and kill Min-hyuk in an instant and capture the women.

After half a day, Lyon's men return to the messenger.

“What happened? ”

Ryan asks for the results, and the messenger says,

“I've got a point I need to make right now, and I just need a couple of days. ”

“Tsk, do I have to wait two days? ”

“Party boss, it's only been two days. That's all it takes. Can't it wait? ”

“Hmm · · · ·. I can't help it. ”

Ryan also decided to wait a couple of days.

And two days later.

Min-hyuk asked me to find a place to meet him for a joint attack.

Then Ryan told me where he'd been searching for in order to raid.

“The hunt is on. Let's all go.”

“Yes, Party Leader. ”

Ryan takes his elite party members to meet Min-hyuk.

The place where the two parties were supposed to meet was just a short distance from Demibeast territory, where adventurers are currently attacking.

I chose that place purposely to eliminate the concern of being spotted by other adventurers.

Ryan arrived first and waited for Min-hyuk anxiously.

However, Min-hyuk rarely showed up at the promised time.

“Damn, this timeless bastard · · ·. ”

Since we don't know what's going to happen in the Abyssal Forest, we can't meet immediately as we made a promise in a safe fortress city.

But from Ryan's point of view, none of that matters.

As a human being who only thinks about his position thoroughly, insults came out of his mouth every 10 seconds after Min-hyuk was late.

And as the mood of the party floor deteriorated, so did the rest of the party, watching Ryan's awareness.

Then one of the party members said,

“Party Leader. Maybe · · · · he noticed? ”

“You noticed? ”

“Yes, it seems too late · · · ·. ”

“No way · · ·. What the hell is he doing? He won't notice unless one of you is a traitor. ”

Ryan looks at his men sharply, saying the word "traitor."

Then the men hurriedly shake their heads and say,

“Betrayal?”

“It's not fair. ”

“That's right, party leader. Trust my loyalty. ”

“Hmmm · ·. That's what happens when you watch. However, if Park Min-hyuk doesn't show up, he'll think he has information. And I will find that traitor. ”

When Ryan said this, the party members deeply distorted their impressions.

It's because the nature of Ryan, who said he was looking for the traitor, was clear that if he couldn't find it, he would at least create it.

‘Damn it. ’

"How did this get so twisted? ’

Now I can see the servants holding back their distance from each other.

They are thinking of using the runner as an offering to escape this crisis.

When Ryan's party is at its worst. · ·

“I've waited a long time. ”

Through the other forest, Min-hyuk appeared.

After Min-hyuk appeared, the members of Ryan's party sighed for a moment of relief. And Ryan smiled and said, as if he was making an unpleasant face.

“Welcome. Park Min-hyuk. Hahaha · ·. ”

Ryan greeted Min-hyuk with an exaggerated smile.

“Can I assume you'll accept my offer to appear like this? ”

“Yes. It's imperative that we attack Demibeast territory anyway, isn't it? There's no reason to oppose gathering your strength. ”

With Min Hyuk's kind agreement, Ryan nods, thankfully.

And he suddenly said as if he had remembered.

“But · ·. Why did you show up alone? Where's the rest of the party? ”

Min Hyuk said, expressing his colors.

“That's the thing. Our party members are not willing to join other parties. I came here to negotiate alone first. ”

“Hooh · · · ·. Really?"

Lyon's eyes sparkle at the words of Min-hyuk. Now, according to Min-hyuk, Min-hyuk is acting alone away from the party members.

‘Idiot. ’

Ryan still smiled and told Min-hyuk.

“It's not good to be alone out in the Abyss Forest. We'd better hurry and join them. Where are the party people? ”

“Rest assured. I'm resting in a temporary lair. The cave used to be taken away by a red bear, but it seemed a relatively safe place. ”

Min Hyuk didn't tell me where the beggars were, but just told me it was a cave.

But this was enough for Ryan.

He had already sent a search to his subordinates so he knew where Min-hyuk's party was staying.

‘Yes, there are women there, right? ’

Ryan now has all the information he wants to know from Min-hyuk.

And Ryan went straight into action.

“Then I'd better get back to work. I'll tell you the location of the Demibeast camp we're trying to attack. Look at the map here. ”

Ryan pretended to take the map out of his arms and approached Min-hyuk. And the moment we are close to Minhyuk · · ·.

“Suck!”

Shhh!!

A sharp dagger was drawn from my hand and a sharp flash flashed towards the neck of Min-hyuk.

Ryan's name is Expert.

Though it was a short dagger, it flew to Minhyuk, who was defenselessly attacked.

Got it!

Ryan was confident of his success and cheered himself up.

Then · ·.

Caang!!!

Ryan's attack is blocked by something unseen.

“Huh!? ”

When Ryan was surprised.

Something came out blurry in front of my eyes. And what revealed was a beautiful blonde here in steel armor.

It was Teresa.
