Misunderstanding
Splat! Slash!
Every time Jin-su swung his sword, the Sasaki pursuit team whose feet were bound by curse skills died powerlessly.
‘That is a monster. A monster we absolutely cannot win against.’
Ogawa was filled with fear while seeing the deaths of his colleagues.
“Keok!”
“Aaaak!”
In an instant, all the colleagues died. The moment the opponent tried to swing his sword toward Ogawa.
“Hiiik! I will surrender! I will do whatever you tell me to. Please spare me!”
Thud!
Ogawa did a dogeza and slammed his head on the dirt floor where his colleagues’ blood flowed.
“Hmm.”
Jin-su who was about to cut Ogawa’s neck stopped his sword.
‘If I kill these guys and another pursuit team comes, it becomes annoying.’
For now, it seemed fine to leave at least one alive for grasping the situation.
“Is there a guy in the Minamoto Guild who possesses a pursuit skill of your degree of level?”
“Uh, there is not.”
“Yeah? Well, that is normal. Then if I kill you here, there will be no more pursuers.”
Ogawa’s face who heard Jin-su’s words turned pale.
“If only you spare me, I will make it so that a pursuit team absolutely does not come!”
“Hmm...”
At Ogawa’s words, Jin-su who was about to swing his sword paused for a moment.
“Speak in detail.”
“Yes, the Minamoto Guild knows the culprit of this matter as Sasaki. Sasaki...”
Ogawa explained urgently. In summary in one word, it was the meaning that Ogawa himself would report that the Sasaki subjugation team was bewitched by a demonic sword and perished together with the crazy Sasaki.
“You are writing a novel. Will such a sloppy excuse really work?”
“It is unconditionally possible! Please believe me! I am as much as executive rank 22! I also receive the absolute trust of the guild master, and other connections are also enormously wide and solid!”
“Well, although there are many sloppy points, let’s say that is something you handle on your own.”
“Thank you! Thank you!”
“But how do I believe you?”
In blunt terms, if Ogawa safely returns and does not keep the promise with Jin-su, it is the end.
“There is a contract that stakes stats!”
Ogawa took out one contract from the inventory. That contract was an item familiar to Jin-su as well.
‘It is a mana contract.’
Jin-su also used a mana contract when he contracted with Shin Su-a.
“What this kind of item is...”
“It is an item I know, so there is no need to explain.”
“Ah, is that so.”
“Give it.”
“Here it is.”
Once Ogawa held out the mana contract, Jin-su filled in the content.
“Here, sign.”
Ogawa received the mana contract Jin-su held out. Ogawa’s face who confirmed the content of the mana contract hardened like a stone.
‘This is completely the same as a slave contract.’
It was also a perfect slave contract that blocked at the source the room to escape by twisting the content of the contract or having ambiguous phrases or misunderstandings or illusions occur.
“Why, do you dislike it? Then speak right now.”
At Jin-su’s words, Ogawa shook his head and quickly finished the signature.
Hwaak!
The moment the signature was finished, the contract that changed into a cluster of bright light was absorbed into the bodies of Jin-su and Ogawa.
“Then go.”
Jin-su waved his hand.
“Yes! Understood!”
As soon as Jin-su’s permission fell, Ogawa turned his body at full speed and fled.
“Will that person be able to do well?”
Shin Su-a asked while looking at Ogawa’s retreating back with a gaze full of doubt.
“That, I do not know either.”
If he fails, Ogawa will die at the hands of the Minamoto Guild members.
‘And a new pursuit team will be formed.’
If the new pursuit team finds Jin-su again, that will become the misfortune of the Minamoto Guild. Sending Ogawa alive was Jin-su’s own consideration.
If he kicks that consideration not once but twice on his own and continues to annoy Jin-su?
For the misfortune that occurs after that, even if it is said to be reaping what one sows, there will be nothing to say.
***
Jin-su and Shin Su-a immersed themselves in hunting and diligently cleared hidden dungeons and ordinary dungeons. However, the level and achievements Jin-su obtains due to hunting were not making that great a contribution to the growth of the Blessing compared to the effort put in.
This was thanks to the summons who immerse themselves in hunting for 24 hours without rest more diligently than Jin-su.
‘Since the summons increased, it is enormously comfortable and good.’
Even while eating and sleeping, the level rises, achievements increase, and points and items accumulate, so his heart could not be more comfortable.
‘But I cannot become lazy.’
Gather dust to make a mountain. Even if the contribution drops, he could not do the hunt leisurely. On top of that, in the case of hidden dungeons, Jin-su had to find them directly.
Jin-su went out hunting together with Shin Su-a without fail today as well.
However, Jin-su was completely unaware of what kind of storm the summons released for hunting caused on Floor 150.
***
In the meeting room of the Phoenix Guild located on Floor 150, the executives all gathered. Because a report that an abnormality occurred in the starting city came in.
“It is said a Bone Dragon appeared near the starting city?”
“Yes, that’s right.”
“Is it not that you saw wrong? Why would a Bone Dragon come out here?”
“Yeah, it seems you mistook something like a wyvern for a Bone Dragon.”
“It is certain. It is said they really saw it. There is also evidence.”
“Evidence?”
“Yes, a video recording device was sent.”
“Play it.”
“Yes.”
Once the video recording device was activated, the appearance of something with the form of a dragon roaming the sky from afar was played.
“Huh? It is real.”
“It is a Bone Dragon! That’s right! It was real!”
“But the color is a bit strange? Why is it white?”
“Bones are originally white! So it is white!”
“Ah, is that so.”
Although it was a video taken from quite far, it possessed sufficient resolution to confirm the existence of the Bone Dragon.
“Let’s move immediately.”
“That’s right. We have to catch it first before other guys take the initiative.”
“Think carefully. It is a Bone Dragon. If it is certain that it is an out-of-spec monster, if done wrong, we might be reverse-hit.”
“You who are a coward continue to be careful. Our party will go catch the Bone Dragon.”
“What? What do you see me as, this bastard!”
“Stop!”
At the words of the Phoenix Guild master Robert, the executives who were chattering noisily all shut their mouths.
“Summon all the top-tier parties. That guy, we will catch it unconditionally.”
“Waaaa!”
At the guild master Robert’s remark, the executive who had been presenting the cautious theory opened his mouth with a dissatisfied expression.
“It is too hasty. I think a more detailed investigation is needed.”
“Then you withdraw. Because it is sufficient even if only bringing those who agree.”
“But!”
“If you hesitate and other guys catch it first, can you take responsibility?”
At Robert’s words of can you take responsibility, the executive who had been presenting the cautious theory lost words. It is not that he is forcibly mobilizing, and he even said that those who dislike it do not have to participate in the Bone Dragon raid, so there was no justification either.
“Yeah, if you are not going to take responsibility, keep your mouth shut.”
“If cowards withdraw, it is the end, so what is the problem?”
Decisively, the public opinion of the executives itself was absolutely in favor of the Bone Dragon raid.
“We depart immediately once the top-tier parties are summoned. Move quickly.”
“Yes!”
The Phoenix Guild hurriedly scraped together elites for the Bone Dragon raid and then headed toward the starting city.
However, the guild that organized elites and headed toward the starting city was not only the Phoenix Guild.
The Daehan Guild, Hwangryong Guild, American Alliance, Olihi Guild, Alsani Guild, Minamoto Guild, Kuzo Guild, and so on.
Most of the large guilds of Floor 150 that received the news of the Bone Dragon’s appearance organized elites and moved toward the starting city.
***
Jin-su digested an ordinary daily life of going back and forth between the lodging and the hunting ground.
‘Sharing skills with constraints on acquisition by type has the best effect.’
Jin-su was in the middle of consuming the number of Skill Sharing uses productively.
Each class has main skills. Those main skills are divided into non-attribute skills that can be acquired commonly by both holy type and dark type, and skills that can only be acquired by holy type or dark type.
‘So far, I thought it was not a great problem because the status window can be switched.’
If Skill Sharing is used, the problem could be resolved more easily. The most comfortable point was the point that the boundary between the holy-type status window and dark-type status window disappears.
‘Even just the inventory is like that.’
The point that becomes the biggest problem when switching from the holy-type status window to the dark-type status window or conversely from the dark-type status window to the holy-type status window is precisely the items.
‘Worn items do not matter, but items in the inventory could not be used.’
Jin-su possesses various classes on both the holy-type status window and dark-type status window.
The number of uses or cooldown of status window switch is no problem.
Because this time as the level of the Blessing-exclusive skill rose, the stacks increased greatly from 22 to 122, and the cooldown also decreased from 2 hours to 1 hour.
Skills are also no problem.
Whether holy type or dark type, only the kind and inclination of the skills change, and the quality does not drop.
However, in the case of items, the circumstances were different.
If wearing warrior equipment on the holy-type status window and then switching to the dark-type status window, to use equipment of another class, equipment set in the inventory of the holy-type status window was needed.
The opposite case was the same.
‘Although it was not a matter that would become a problem right now.’
Monsters of the Floor 150 level were weak to the degree where there was no need to hunt while switching the status window. Even if switching the status window, they were weak to the degree where hunting was easily possible even without wearing class-exclusive equipment for combat power rise.
‘But what is inconvenient is inconvenient.’
The Staff of the Cursed Skeleton Knight was also like that. The Staff of the Cursed Skeleton Knight could maintain the summon of the Skeleton Knights in a state of being put into the inventory. However, if the status window is changed, the inventory is deactivated and the Skeleton Knights are also forcibly reverse-summoned.
‘To constantly summon the Skeleton Knights, every time the status window is switched, the work of taking the Staff of the Cursed Skeleton Knight out of the inventory and putting it back in had to be done.’
It was not a work that consumed that much time. But it was also a fact that it was a subtly annoying work. Also, in the Tower, since it is unknown when and where what kind of matter will explode, there was a need to always be fully prepared.
‘When the number of shared skill uses was only 2 each, there was no leeway so I could not use it on the inventory.’
Now the circumstances changed.
Jin-su used the holy-type status window sharing uses on the inventory and made the inventory into a shared skill.
Then he stored all the main equipment of each class and frequently used items in the holy-type inventory. Then free equipment wearing and combat became possible without being bound by the status window.
In the dark-type status window inventory, he stored items not yet sold and infrequently used items and matched the balance.
‘Moving items in the inventory also required switching the status window every time, which was work.’
Thanks to Skill Sharing, that problem could be cleanly resolved.
‘Sharing the summon contract skill was also large.’
Leo and Kkami are existences bound to the summon contract skill. That is why the summon could only be maintained when maintaining the dark-type status window.
If the dark-type status window is switched to holy type?
‘They are automatically reverse-summoned.’
However, if the summon contract skill is made into a shared skill, that problem could also be cleanly resolved.
‘Not being able to use Kkami’s scouting and Leo’s wide-area provocation roar on the holy-type status window was quite regrettable.’
Yet, Leo’s combat ability was added here.
Naturally, the regret had no choice but to become larger. However, this problem could be cleanly resolved through Skill Sharing.
‘To think summoning would become my main.’
It was a matter he could not even imagine around the time he just regressed and arrived on Floor 1.
‘Work hard.’
The summons are hunting monsters for Jin-su’s growth without rest even now.
‘Huh?’
At that time, a report that they are being pursued by humans holding weapons entered Jin-su’s mind. Actually, this was a matter that occasionally occurs, and if shaken off moderately, there was nothing that would become a problem.
The problem was the point that this report does not come sporadically and then cut off, but continues to come in simultaneously without rest.
‘The Army Summon Bone Dragon, Dragon Tooth Soldiers, and even the undead summons are making the same report?’
This was absolutely not a matter that could be passed over lightly.
