-Urgh, urgh… … .
There was a sound of bones crunching, and the surroundings were instantly filled with blood, but it soon disappeared.
This was because the bugs ate not only the corpse but also the blood.
Dokgo Jun just stood from a distance and looked at it.
“I thought he was a bit ambiguous as a fellow character, but he was as expected.”
Dokgo Jun seemed to think that this world was part of a game or a novel and that he was the main character.
I also remembered that during the sect integration meeting, people other than myself were treated as supporting roles.
Shin Soo-ah hated this guy a lot.
Even now, he was looking at Dokgo Jun with a shocked expression.
“Character… … . What on earth are you talking about?”
“Let’s talk about that later. First, let’s take care of urgent matters.”
Dokgo Jun looked at the demon.
Masu was busy eating, but there weren’t many corpses left.
He was seen clutching the iron pipe tightly.
“If I catch this guy, the tutorial will be over!”
As soon as he finished speaking, Dokgo Jun ran towards the demon.
As I swung the iron pipe again, the insect’s tearing scream was heard.
-Squeak!
Dokgo Jun smiled quietly at that sound, but soon froze.
There were a dozen or so bugs that fell to the floor, and even if you hit them well, there were only a few dozen.
The vacancy was quickly filled.
Although it was the same level, it was a completely different demon from the one we had just faced.
═══════════════
[Name] Giant Silkworm
[Grade] Chungilpum (Insect Grade)
[Description] A monster made up of numerous silkworms. Each silkworm must be defeated individually. Its diet is the same as that of a giant silkworm.
═══════════════
Although Dagger Sleep is a low-ranking type of demon, it is a bit difficult to conquer.
In the case of spears or swords, they barely cause any damage.
The appropriate way to deal with it was to crush it with a blunt object or burn it all at once.
Neither of these methods was suitable for us at present.
“It seems like we’re not compatible types. Of course, to this extent… … . Ugh!”
The moment Dokgo Jun was about to step back, several bugs climbed up his legs.
Before I could even dodge, the bugs dug their teeth into my arm.
Shin Soo-ah shouted urgently.
“Mr. Dokgo Jun! Be careful!”
She quickly picked up a stick of wood that was rolling nearby.
And he swung the club at Daggerjam.
A dull thud was heard, but soon Shin Soo Ah’s face turned red with confusion.
“What the heck is this… … ?!”
-Each, each… …!
The bugs clung to the wooden planks as if they had been waiting for them.
And then, as if it were a blender, it ate the wood in an instant.
I quickly activated my power before the bugs could reach Shinsooah.
[The ability ‘Flame Flame’ is activated!]
The moment I fired the sparks at the bugs, the smell of burning began to vibrate.
I could see the bugs screaming and writhing.
-Keeeeeek!
The bugs that were rushing at Shin Soo-ah and the ones that were clinging to Dokgo Jun also fell away.
The daggers were seen distancing themselves from us, startled by the flames.
As expected of a third-grade insect, Gwangyeom Iljang’s firepower was not good.
It was at best the size of a golf ball, but it seemed sufficient for intimidation.
However, it was only meant as a threat, not enough to kill Daggerjam.
“Mr. Dokgo Jun, are you okay?”
Shin Soo-ah asked while checking Dokgo Jun’s condition.
There was a hole all over his right arm and blood was flowing out of it.
Dokgo Jun said, covering his wound with his hand.
“It’s okay, thanks to you I survived.”
He was smiling even though his clothes were soaked with blood.
Then Dokgo Jun turned his gaze towards me.
There was a strange light in his eyes.
“You, you said Seo Kang-rim? Thank you too. You seem like a good person to have as a companion.”
Dokgo Jun was still making strange noises.
He glanced at Daggerjam with a smiling face.
“Seo Kang-rim, can you kill that?”
“It would be better to run away.”
Fire was certainly an effective weapon, but it was not powerful enough to take down the daggers.

My magical power is small, so there are limits to how much I can use it.
For now, Daggerjam is hiding his body on guard, but if they clash again, he will definitely lose.
For now, I had no choice but to run away and waste time.
Just wait a little longer and the Fate Protectorate will come.
I quickly relayed the message to both of them.
“Let’s get out of here now. I’ll try to light a little more fire, and then we can escape.”
Daggerjam was still wary of my firepower.
Since they had eaten their fill, it was possible that they would not be interested in us.
Meanwhile, Dokgo Jun was muttering something.
“Escape? If that happens, the development will be… … .”
Are you still having empty thoughts in the midst of all this?
When Shin Soo-ah hit him, he finally came to his senses and looked at me.
“When I give you the signal, run right away. Okay? Go in different directions to keep everyone distracted.”
He nodded.
He also exchanged glances with Shin Soo-ah.
I lit another small flame and threw it at Daggerjam.
-Whoooosh!
Daggerjam was seen screaming and curling up as flames flew towards his head.
At the same time, we split up and started running in three directions.
At that moment, thousands of eyes stared at me.
-Keeeeeek!
As if the dagger realized that it wouldn’t die from this level of flame, it quickly turned around and started running towards me.
It seemed like they were keeping a close eye on me, the one who fired the fire.
At that moment, Dokgo Jun’s voice was heard from the door.
“Oh, so that’s the pattern?”
When I looked at where the sound was coming from, Dokgo Jun and Shin Soo Ah had arrived at the exit.
Dokgo Jun was looking at me with an expression that said he finally understood.
“It’s a pattern where a powerful enemy appears, a comrade dies, and the protagonist awakens because of that. I guess this woman is the heroine.”
Dokgo Jun’s voice was very excited.
As if seeing something interesting.
He said with a bright smile.
“Seo Kang-rim. I will not forget your sacrifice.”
And Dokgo Jun dragged Shin Soo Ah away and immediately left the place.
I think I know why Shin Soo Ah hated this guy.
If you had just run away, I wouldn’t have thought about it at all.
-Kikikiki… … !
In the meantime, the dagger was coming closer and closer to me.
We have no choice but to hold out until the protectorate arrives.
At that time, while facing off against the giant dagger, he was waiting for an opening.
A sharp voice was heard from the exit.
“What kind of heroine is this, you crazy bastard!”
Shin Soo Ah came running inside again with a loud noise.
She shouted at me.
“Mr. Kangrim, I’ll get your attention so run away!”
When Shin Soo Ah appeared and started swinging the club, Dagger Jam seemed momentarily flustered.
The moment the bastard turned his body towards Shin Soo Ah.
I immediately fired a blast of flame towards the dagger.
-Phew!
“Where are you looking? You should be looking at me.”
Daggerjam looked a little confused as we attacked from both sides, but I knew.
Anyway, this is only a temporary measure.
Eventually, Daggerjam chose me as his target and bared his teeth.
-Kyaaaaah!
Daggerjam howled in rage and tried to chew on my shoulder.
I dodged the attack in a hurry, but I didn’t avoid it completely.
As soon as the bugs got stuck in my arm, blood started gushing out.
“Ugh… … !”
I desperately tried to get the bugs off with the flame, but I was reaching my limit.
There’s not much magic left.
At best, I could only use the lightbulb once.
-Keeeeeek… …!
The bastard must have noticed that too because he started crawling towards me.
Is there anything that could be used as a weapon?
I quickly looked around and noticed some materials piled up on one side.
I shouted urgently at Shin Soo Ah.
“Ms. Shin Soo-ah! Use the Mok-yeop method!”
“There are no trees or anything around here… …!”
“Try it with a stick!”
I just remembered the silkworms that had been gnawing away at the sticks of wood like crazy.
The diet of the turtle is that of a beast.
person.
And the vegetation.
‘Mokyeopjibeop’ can be used if there is soil or trees nearby.
I don’t know if it’s possible to make it into a dead tree like a stick, but if it’s Shinsooah, a new product, it’s definitely possible.
At that moment, a notification sound was heard.
[The ability ‘Mokyeopjibeop’ is activated!]
Her eyes seemed to light up for a moment, and then the stick she was holding began to sprout buds and branches to grow.
Not only that, sprouts were growing from the lumber that was rolling around the construction site.
-Whoaaah!
Numerous vines grew from the logs and engulfed the daggers.
Just before it could bite me, the dagger got caught in a tree vine and started struggling violently.
Shin Soo-ah shouted urgently.
“That’s enough! Now just run away… … !”
-Keeeeeek!
The captured dagger seemed to struggle, then quickly began to gnaw at the tree vines.
Her attacks didn’t do any damage.
Rather, the dagger seemed to be recovering by gnawing on the tree like crazy.
“Mr. Kangrim! Get out of here!”
Shin Soo-ah had a face full of despair, and was trying to somehow prevent herself from falling asleep.
But I neither avoided nor despaired.
From the beginning, I didn’t think that Daegeojam would fall with just the ‘Mokyeopjibeop’.
[The ability ‘Flame Flame’ is activated!]
I gathered all my magical power and ignited a flame, then flew it towards Daggerjam.
In an instant, the fire spread to the tree vines.
-Whoooosh!
But the flames were still weak.
Even the large-scale fire seemed to be unaffected by this level of flames.
But soon the bastard became flustered and began to squirm.
The fire was growing beyond just a tree on fire.
Our abilities are based on our four pillars of destiny.
The logic of the four pillars of destiny also applies to combat.
Metal is a mutually destructive combination that kills wood.
Conversely, there are also mutually beneficial compatibility.
Wood produces fire.
Wood fuels fire.
No matter how small the spark is, it can grow as big as it needs a tree to help it grow.
And at that moment, a notification window appeared before my eyes.
[The fates of ‘Seo Kang-rim’ and ‘Shin Soo-ah’ begin to intertwine!]
[The fate of ‘Shin Soo-ah’ creates the fate of ‘Seo Kang-rim’!]
[The ability ‘Gwangyeomiljang’ temporarily evolves from Chungsampum (Insect Three-Piece) to Chungilpum (Insect One-Piece)!]
