Pallocks.
The first strong demon Kang Yu encountered when he crossed from the Eight Thousand to Nine Thousand Hell Circle.
After killing the Seven Great Demons, Pallock was the next strongest demon. After being defeated by Kang Yu, he swore loyalty and knelt down.
'Very annoying.' He was so simple that Kang Yu thought about whether only his muscles were all he had for the brain, but Kang Yu treated him sincerely.
— Let's go out and talk first.
- Yeah! Understood it!
Kang Yu threw the second man over his shoulder, who was lying unconscious the entire time and started walking.
— Kang Yu, I'll carry him.
Dae Su put the man on his shoulder and they went towards the exit.
Even a healthy man's body would look small compared to Dae Su.
'By the way, he looks like a monster.' Kang Yu grinned, thinking Dae Su looked like a monster carrying its prey.
***
- Thank you! — When Kim Tae Hyun came out of the gate, he bowed towards Kang Yu again. – As soon as I found a way to get rid of the title of Robber and get treatment, he bowed towards Kang Yu again. As soon as I found a way to get rid of the title of Robber and get treatment, I'll pay you back soon. —
— You can find a way to get rid of it?
— You see, Robbers usually don't get paid at parties, so support doesn't help us much.
— So so. – Kang Yu nods his head with understanding.
Tae Hyun thanked Kang Yu once again and staggered in the right direction.
Kang Yu smiled seeing the young man's back leave.
'It's nice to do good things. It must be more fun than finding enemies.'
Who knows, maybe Tae Hyun will really get rid of the Robber's label and achieve something.
'The odds are certainly not high...' But it couldn't be worse.
Kang Yu turned his gaze to Dae Su.
He was already staring at Kang Yu with sparkling eyes.
It looked like a trained bear was standing in front of him.
'What should I do with it?' He could not get rid of this person easily.
— You are at what level?
— On the 12th, I just got ranked 2nd.
— Hmm, and you haven't completed basic education yet?
— My special ability at rank 1 is class C, so I just started hunting and leveling up.
oh wow.
Class C's special ability at rank 1 was not a bad achievement.
— And your special ability at rank 2 is in which class?
— Heh heh, I have a special ability of class A of class 2.
'I didn't expect him to have such a good ability.' Anyone who got a grade B special ability at rank 2 was considered talented. And he not only has B ability, but also A grade ability.
'So that's why those people didn't drop him.' Although Dae Su's level was low, he had strong special abilities, which made them difficult to deal with.
— Why didn't you join the guild? With that level, you can get anywhere.
— I just thought about which guild I would follow. But now it's not necessary.
Kang Yu looked at Dae Su.
He looked back at Kang Yu excitedly and clenched his fists.
— I, Dae Su, am loyal to your greatness! From now on, I want to follow you!
— Hmm... — He exhaled loudly and stared at Dae Su with his arms crossed.
'Why don't I take it?' At first, he seemed a little annoying, but if he had such powerful special abilities, then things would be different.
Dae Su is the Player to Invest.
'Players who have strong special abilities at rank 2 are more likely to gain abilities that are just as good at the next rank.' Dae Su will most likely gain S-level ability next time.
'It would be nice to make him a subordinate.' For Kang Yu who was used to fighting alone, there was no need for a partner at all.
But if it was a subordinate who obeyed all orders, it would change everything.
Two will be more efficient than one, and he can handle all the hard work.
'And more important...' Kang Yu felt Dae Su's loyal gaze.
Not the most important force in choosing subordinates.
The most important thing is absolute loyalty, the certainty that they will not stab you in the back.
Therefore, accepting Dae Su as a subordinate was a good decision.
'And Han Sol will soon receive two ranks.' With him as a supporter and Dae Su as a tank, they would make a good party.
"I think it's worth it." Investing in Dae Su's abilities is not a bad idea.
- That's good. From now on, I will lead you forward.
— Oh, oh, thank you, Kang Yu! — said Dae Su with an excited voice and shining gaze. — Should we break into the protection of the Andras Guild now? Heh hehs. I will protect you at the expense of my life! —
— No, I will go to the guild alone.
— Why are you going alone?
—Dae Su,—Kang Yu called him in a low voice.
Dae Su shivered.
Kang Yu continued to speak in a low tone:
— You almost died at the hands of these two guild members, right?
— It... That's right.
— Do you think you can really protect me now?
He knew himself that he could not help Kang Yu right now.
When he saw the disappointment on Dae Su's shoulder, Kang Yu placed his hand on his shoulder.
— It's okay, Dae Su.
—Kang Yu?
— For you, this is just the beginning. If you get beaten up now, it will be harder for you to become stronger. Do you disagree?
When Dae Su heard the words of support, his face flushed slightly.
- Yeah! That'sthat's true! My story has just begun!
- That's right.
— Heh, heh, heh. I will become stronger and I can become your shield!
Seeing the spirit in Dae Su's eyes, Kang Yu smiled and nodded.
- I believe you.
- Give me your number. If you need anything, call me anytime.
— Oh, by the way, I have a request.
— Just say it! — His tone expresses his full readiness.
— One of my acquaintances will soon graduate from school. Can you take her to the party and help her level up?
— In what position, if you don't mind telling me?
- Support.
— Then, here's my request. Let's find a damage dealer and make a good party. —
Dae Su continued to nod and smile like a good person.
- Then let's get in touch.
— Kang Yu, will you go directly to the guild?
— I'm not sure. – Kang Yu saw a man lying unconscious on the ground.
With that sword-wielding man, it shouldn't be difficult to find the guild's nest.
'It won't be a problem to meet the guild.' The Andras Union was not the largest in Korea and its size was quite average, so Kang Yu had the strength to face them alone.
Because when he reached level 20, the power that sealed Man Ma Jung was getting weaker, so he got a decent boost to his strength.
Moreover, Kang Yu's strength could not only be described from his level or the unit of ability he received.
He had incredible fighting skills that had been honed over ten thousand years.
Even if you don't take into account his enormous amount of Strength, the chances of winning are great.
"The question is how to get there unnoticed." He definitely possessed a skill similar to Silence Force that could conceal his presence, but maintaining it for a long time was no easy task.
'If I get caught, I won't be able to learn the order of the rites.' If that happened, the goal of breaking through the Andras guild would not be fulfilled.
— Hmm, — Kang Yu closed his eyes and thought.
— Hello.. — At that moment, a man lying unconscious tried to get up.
He chose the right time to wake up. Kang Yu immediately grabbed her neck.
- I have a question. Be kind to answer.
The man, without reacting, tried to get up.
nodding if you understand me.
The man with the blue face hurriedly nodded and coughed.
- What's your name?
— Ka. Kang Chul Ho.
— That's good, Chul Ho. Not long ago, you discussed that these two Players cannot be killed and must be taken somewhere.
The man said nothing. He bit his lips and looked away, clearly avoiding the answer. There was a drop of sweat on his forehead.
— I don't... I don't remember that.
- Yes? — Kang Yu hit his head like a soccer ball.
— Ahhhh!
— Are you starting to remember something?
— Mm-hmm…
- Not enough?
— No... No! — Chul Ho lowered his head.
Dae Su opened his mouth in shock at how skilled Kang Yu was at interrogation.
— P... A hostage is needed to use him as a victim.
the victim?
- Yeah.
— Do you need it for ritual?
The man looked seriously and nodded.
Kang Yu, without knowing why, smirked when he heard that answer.
— You guys are even crazier than I thought.
Kang Yu still did not know exactly what a 'ritual' was, but if they made someone a victim, it was most likely that this ritual was like something primitive.
- Hmm. – Kang Yu narrowed his eyes and thought that the Andras Guild had really gone crazy.
'Sacrifice...' At that moment, Kang Yu slipped an idea into his head and smiled.
He turned his head towards Chul Ho and said it in a low tone:
- I have a request.
