— Naughty face! —Men with full face of acne shout violently.
— Be patient, Ho Jung. There were always a lot of stupid fools among the newcomers.
— Ha. This one is a really stupid snot, - Jong-Ho Jung repeats after the girl named So Ye Ri, and takes a deep breath.
After Ho Jung finally reached rank 3 while nearly dying many times he realized that he was not a 'gifted' Player'.
His special power of rank 3 belonged to class C.
And the previous two skills are included in classes E and D.
Since his particular level of strength was not high, he was unable to find a herd of higher levels and only settled down at the D level gate.
He had already let go of the idea of ascending higher, but the situation turned out to be such that he no longer gained the experience to kill D-level monsters.
Now the people in the party with him had special abilities of a lower rank or, like Ho Jung himself, could not enter the higher level gate.
***
'How far has he gone?' Ho Jung bit his lips and clenched his fists.
There was only one reason why that unwise novice Player appeared without any weapons or items. Luck.
The luck to obtain a high level of special ability.
— I need to teach you a lesson, — he said enviously, staring at the gate.
Special Power Rank is important, but you cannot ignore someone older than you.
It is believed that for rank 2, level B special abilities are high.
— Ye Ri, is this the first time we've seen her?
— Yes, we are there all the time. This is the first time I've seen him.
– Then it must be a man with two ranks.
It made no sense for a high-class Player to descend to a low-level gate.
Due to the difference in levels, it was more difficult for them to gain experience points, and the difference in the price of mana stones was huge.
Sometimes new members of the guild descend to lower levels to level up. But the foolish newcomer was alone, so there was no way that was so.
— You mean there are no Class A Players with special abilities?
- Yeah. At least not in the last month.
- Okay.
A man with average ability and ignorance of the rules would not be a problem for them.
— We are not hunting today.
—Ho Jung's…
— I have to teach that man a lesson.
The group members smiled.
— Okay, good. Finally, we'll have fun.
— Yes, lately boring.
— I'm coming too.
Every friend is in the same situation. Everyone had low-level special powers, and they could not enter the gates of higher levels.
Each of them was jealous of Kang Yu just like Ho Jung.
They have a lot of experience mocking weaker players.
- Come on. — The corners of Ho Jung's lips twitch as they enter the gate.
***
- What? — Kang Yu asked in a cold tone, looking at Ho Jung.
Kang Yu could recognize him.
"That guy." A man with acne who offered to join his party.
Each of them looked at Kang Yu with a smile.
— Yes, we, as parents, are interested in how things are with newcomers, — Ho Jung said with a grin.
Kang Yu silently smiled at such a glaring lie.
'Good.' It's not hard to guess what's going on.
Just by judging the look on his face, it was easy to know why they were coming and what they were going to do.
"Well, let's have fun."
The weak will not live.
It is the law of life for those who look down on anyone.
Destroy the weak and prove you are better. But that kind of thing is just comfort.
Yet.
There's something they're wrong about.
"I'm not weak." And he was not a person who secretly tolerated attacks towards him.
He is a demon to all demons, who devour everything.
The corner of Kang Yu's lips twitched and he spoke in a calm tone:
— As you can see, the hunt is going well.
— Um. — Ho Jung leaned towards Kang Yu and took a closer look at the surrounding space.
— Okay, you may say so, but I don't see a corpse.
The phrase about a successful hunt is unbelievable with the lack of body lizardmen.
Kang Yu shrugged and replied calmly:
— I'm on break.
- Oh yeah? Aren't you a little rude to talk like that to an older person?
— The fact that you interfered in my business is very disturbing to me.
Ho Jung changed his face when he saw the peaceful calmness of Kang Yu.
— Oh, you fool!
Although Ho Jung did not know his opponent's special ability class, Kang Yu's behavior made him so angry that he was ready to act.
'Most likely it was a Level B ability.' If so, Kang Yu was more likely to be respected and offered invitations to guilds and parties.
— Maybe I should tell you by documenting everything in writing. – Kang Yu started to boil in anger, and he put his hand on his side.
— Ha.
— Really bastard.
The previously quiet members of the group became restless and took their weapons.
Ho Jung reached out his hand to hold his fellow gunmen.
- Enough.
— But, Ho Jung…
— Don't worry about that. We are rehabilitating this rude man,” Ho Jung said in a mocking tone.
But there is no need to dirty your own hands to rehabilitate beginners.
"There's a better way." There is something every newcomer fears.
— You will regret your overconfidence.
What all newcomers fear.
Monsters.
- I'm waiting.
- Hm. Let's see how far you're going.
Ho Jung, looking towards the fearless Kang Yu, took out his dagger.
He smiled and pulled his hand with a metal bracelet on it.
His team members knew what Ho Jung was doing and watched with anticipation in their eyes.
— Did you know that lizardmen are sensitive to sound?
Kang Yu did not answer anything.
This was information that Kang Yu had known since the beginning of the hunt.
'That's it.' Kang Yu knew what Ho Jung was going to do now, and smiled.
Daggers, metal bracelets, and sound-sensitive lizardmen.
If you combine all these facts, there is only one option.
Ho Jung runs a dagger over his bracelet.
A pure and melodious metallic sound flew all over the swamp.
'As expected.' Kang Yu is right.
He smiled at Ho Jung's silly behavior.
He heard the wild cries of the lizardmen herd.
Ho Jung smiled wickedly and continued:
— Best educational facilities for beginners – monsters.
Newcomers accustomed to monsters end up being afraid of Players, not monsters.
And those who were not used to fighting monsters continued to fear them rather than the Players.
The main enemy of mankind.
Meat-eating monsters and blood-drinkers.
— So that's what you're going to do.
— What, are you afraid? — Ho Jung laughs with his heart. — Judging from his voice, there are more than ten lizardmen who stormed here. I don't know how many top-class Special Skills you have, but can you defeat them?
Kang Yu did not say anything.
— You don't need to worry. If we think they're gonna kill you, we're gonna save you. You might get a little hurt, of course, but that would be a good life lesson.
Ho Jung looked at the silent Kang Yu and prepared his dagger.
The pure sound of metal flew again. Kang Yu quietly observed Ho Jung's actions and pressed his lips firmly.
Ho Jung thought Kang Yu was scared.
— Why don't you show off again?
Kang Yu did not reply to anything.
— Hah! As soon as the monster appeared, you froze in fear. — Ho Jung sneered happily.
Kang Yu, seeing this, raised the corner of his lips and said:
— Can you handle it?
- What?
— Are you strong enough?
— What…
Kang Yu looked at Ho Jung's confused expression and concentrated Strength in both of his hands.
'Sound Power.'
It allows each movement to be so loud that you want to be deaf to avoid hearing those sounds.
— ah?
— You... What do you do?
Ho Jung and his comrades turned pale.
Totally suicidal to make a fuss in the lizardmen's lair.
The howls of monsters sounded from all sides.
The Lizardmen started running towards the loud noise.
you are crazy!
The lizardmen's roar did not stop.
Kang Yu continued to use Sound Power; it seemed like bombs were exploding here and there.
— I think that's enough.
- you jerk!! — Ho Jung's screams are mixed with the sound made by Kang Yu's Strength.
Even if he's acting crazy, he's not a crazy job here.
