Taming Master

* * *

In the full moon journey as long and short as possible, a period finally appeared.

After many harsh processes, only Charleon, the ‘King of the Dead’, was left to safeguard the end of the episode.

And it wasn't just the journey of the expedition users.

During this full moon, it was no exaggeration if many of Kailan's users froze and froze.

A lot of people have been watching almost every broadcast and genuinely support the rankers of the expedition.

Viewers were nervous when the expedition was in danger, and when they overcame the crisis, they were as excited as they were about their job.

In fact, even as a novice user in Kailan, I felt like I was part of the expedition while watching the broadcast.

As the episode progressed more dynamically, viewers were happier.

In fact, there were other people who were happier than viewers.

“Hey, Representative Kim, how was your party today? The hanwoo house across the street last month tasted amazing. The meat melts in my mouth...! ”

“It's Cole, sir! Should I try to get in touch with the producers and the press? ”

“That's great! The boys at the press station didn't even make it to the last dinner because of the overtime, but they'd love to be contacted. ”

“Payment is legal... …. Right?”

“He said that! You can't blame the director for a hundred scratches on a lawn car with this much viewership. ”

“Uh-huh, great! ”

They were the employees of YTBC who almost exclusively broadcast this episode.

This is because Ian's expedition set an unprecedented record of viewership in the history of the game.

All but one of the many indicators of instant viewership.

Moreover, the battle with the Rich King is still ongoing, so YTBC expects to be able to get even the highest instant viewership record.

Given the situation, all employees of YTBC related to the broadcast received a bonus, and the atmosphere was more cosmetic than ever before.

And one of the people in YTBC was the most beneficial…….

Yu Jae-woong, the team leader of YTBC's advertising division, was the UK.

“Congratulations, sir, by the way. I heard that you will be promoted to vice president this time. ”

“Hehe, thank you. ”

“Then how could you have chosen Ian Gods? All in-game messengers are blocked, and even if I contact them through the guild, they always reply that they're busy with quests. I want you to tell me the secret. ”

“Haha, just lucky. I just got lucky. ”

“Oh, that's too much, sir. You have to show him the way. ”

Yoo Jae Woong frowned without answering the question of his direct report, as if he was in a state of humility.

But his words of good fortune were never humble.

Because it was literally true.

He was the one who connected with Ian to get the broadcast, but he wasn't the one who went to see him first.

It was only when Ian called, that he accidentally received the call.

‘Whew, I was lucky I was the only one in Tim's office at the time. ’

Yoo Jae-woong looked at the office with a sly smile.

Tim's direct reports were packing bags because they were excited about the reunion, and there was still a broadcast of the expedition on on the big screen in the office.

However, his gaze around the office was fixed on the screen where the expedition broadcast.

The screen reminded me of a familiar face.

‘Poor guy, I'll buy you dinner next time. ’

The one who came into Yoo Jae-woong's eyes was like Heinz.

The employee who is currently suffering in the company must be Hines.

Hynes, who explains to me to pop his head in the screen, is a sad Jae Woong.

Ian's expedition, which has wiped out so many undead troops, has been through so much.

Traps made of powerful dark seals were also required to pass, as were super-high-level Named Bosses who appeared to be Sharian's direct servants.

However, if the difficulty of the obstacles that had passed before was high, such a series of processes would seem easy.

As a result, the expedition was able to enter the interior of Palaccio at the expense of fewer than ten members.

At the end of the Cretaceous Passage, a new system message appeared before the eyes of the expedition inside the Palaccio.

- Tyring!

- The energy of the dead is overwhelming.

-Dark Attribute Resistance -10.

- Magic Defense Power reduced by 5%

- -20 Resistance to 'Fear’ status abnormalities.

- You have entered the Castle of the Dark Empire dungeon.

- You discovered the dungeon for the first time.

- All EXP gained for 24 hours will be doubled from now.

-From now on, for 24 hours, drop rates for all types of items and gold are doubled.

- 300,000 Reputation.

(Approximately)

- I met with the last boss of the episode, Rich King Charleon.

Tons of system messages that fill your vision in a moment.

Users of the expedition became more nervous than ever.

It was because I finally encountered the end of a long and long episode.

And now, before their eyes, lies the shadow of the Rich King Charleon.

“By stepping into my domain, you mean I'm ready to be a dead man in 2012. ”

A mute man's voice echoes through the dungeon.

The expedition's users saw Charleon floating in the air, flying a black cloak.

The merit of the ‘King of the Dead’ Rich King, who truly dominates the throne.

The users were nervous and rushed to check their condition.

No one knows the power of the Rich King.

But this one was clear.

More powerful than any boss monster I've ever dealt with.

Ian, who was at the forefront of the expedition, slowly steps out toward Charleon.

But it was an act unrelated to Ian's will.

Ian was the user with the highest rate of episode achievement and contribution, so the story was developed around Ian.

All users in the dungeon began to be controlled by AI, and the final story of the episode progressed.

Goooooo-!

With a great resonance, the dark energy of the Black Gulf spreads around Charleon.

Ian's new brother falls in front of him.

Rich King Charleon is three times the size of a normal person.

His bowl falls to the ground, and a heavy voice echoes through his bowels.

Kuung-!

Ian and Charleon's gaze collides in the air.

A sharp voice comes from Charleon's mouth.

“Hehe, it was you who fearlessly challenged my power. ”

Ian's mouth fell slowly.

“Do you remember me, O king of the dead? ”

Sharian leans back and pushes his face in front of Ian, looking interesting.

“Of course, I've already crossed the line. Since I became king of the dead, I've forgotten how to forget. ”

“That's a sad story. Forgetting is the best gift from God to Humans... No, you've not only forgotten, you've lost many blessings to humans. ”

“Blessings.... ”

“Happiness, love, joy. Do you still have these feelings? ”

On Ian's account, one of Charleon's tails slowly dries up.

It looked like a smile on Shalian's face, but there was intense anger inside.

“I've never felt such emotions as' blessings’ in my life. ”

“You want to believe that. ”

“Huhu, do you think it is worth more than 'eternal life'? ”

Sharian and Ian's gaze, as they gripped it, struck again from the air.

After a brief pause, Ian opened his mouth again.

“If you can't be happy, if you can't love.... What does it mean to live forever? ”

“Why is that? ”

“Neither I here nor any of us behind me...! ”

“ ……? ”

“The fact that I do not envy you will prove proof. ”

“Norm!"

Charleon, blushing with red eyes, slams down with all his might on the ground with a gigantic, silent staff in his right hand.

Kuaang -!

A powerful dark energy spreads from Charleon's staff to all sides.

Kwakwakwakwa!

And the members of the expedition who were overwhelmed by the energy suffered little damage, and were pushed back more than half a bouquet each.

Of course, Ian, who was right in front of you, took the most damage.

“Grrrgh!"

Ian's gauge of life, cut into clumps of more than half of the sheep in one single attack.

But Ian, who was observing his character, was not surprised or embarrassed at all.

The energy that Sharian just emitted, not Ian, would have consumed the same proportion of his life, no matter who it was.

‘I think it's set at about 60 percent……. ’

In Kailan, the damage AI takes while controlling the user never leads to death.

Because of this, when the story progresses under the control of the AI, it is more secure than ever.

Ian listened to the story instead of being surprised by Charleon's attack.

At the same time, he was looking closely at the structure inside the dungeon.

Now that we're having a conversation with Charleon, it was an opportunity to safely understand the interior of the dungeon.

The entire structure is domed. I think it's sharp for a dome... We have to be careful at the center of the dungeon. It's a perfect setup. ’

And while Ian's head was spinning, Ian's AI and the Rich King were in the finalization phase.

“I knew I wouldn't let you live then. I should have killed you on the horse. ”

“You make it sound like June saved my life. I didn't spare him. I didn't kill him. ”

“Klael, don't get cocky, human. I could have killed as many as I wanted to. However, I didn't chase them all the way to the end for breaking my seal. ”

“Then we made a mistake with each other, once. I freed you from the seal by mistake, and you left me alive by mistake. ”

“Kuhahaha, that's a nice touch. ”

“I was just telling the truth. ”

Once again, a moment of silence passed between the two.

Then an intense dark energy emanates from Charleon's body.

“Very well, mortal. Then let's make up for that mistake right here. ”

Following Charleon, Ian also pulled out a red sword that was lodged in his waist.

Shhh!

A sharp, sharp hiss echoes through the middle of the dead, still dungeon, even the sound of the needle falling.

A noble sword captured from Lim Long, Bloody Revenge.

“So am I, Charleon. I will make up for the mistake of the day I freed your seal by deceiving the Demon King. ”

Sharian slowly rises into the air, and Ian returns to the expedition's camp.

And moments later, the final battle of the episode began.
