Only I Level Up: Ragnarok Episode 68
“Really… … This is someone you can’t let your guard down with.”
Arsha bursts into laughter.
“I never thought you would see through this.”
But there was not a hint of smile in the eyes looking at Suho.
Waeeeeee-
The swarm of bees that formed Arsha’s face kept scattering and clumping together, showing how confused she was at the moment.
Suho chuckled.
“I guess that was the correct answer.”
“I guess we should stop talking here.”
Suho asked teasingly as he watched Arsha suddenly get up.
“Suddenly? Are you busy?”
“Of course. I have to go collect the sacrifices that Lee Min-seong killed, and I also have to look for a new beehive to move to.”
“Where are you moving to? Have you looked into a place?”
“Wherever that place is, Suho will not be able to find it.”
“That’s too bad. I was thinking of going to a housewarming party.”
“That would be impossible.”
Tiki-taka where neither side gives up a single word.
Looking back at that guardian, Arsha said with a brighter smile.
“While we were talking, this basement was filled with my poison.”
“poison?”
“Yes. It is a colorless, odorless poison that was made with so much care that even a descendant of the Fang Lord would not have noticed.”
The reason why Arsha and Suho were bickering here in the first place.
This was to buy time for his poison to completely penetrate deep into his body.
Arsha’s smile towards Suho was gradually becoming more and more cruel.
“Once you enter the queen bee’s nest on your own two feet, there are only two ways to leave: either as a worker bee or as food. So, I’ll say goodbye here… … .”
[Kihehe.]
“……huh?”
But why is that?
[Kihehehe.]
For some reason, the little ant Berga was holding its belly and giggling on the table.
A laugh that was even more mocking than before.
On the other hand, Suho, unlike Ber, was not smiling at all.
Just like when I first came down here, I just got up from my chair and stood next to Arsha and spoke to her.
“That’s good. I’m thinking about going to Lee Min-seong’s too. Should we go together?”
“Huh, how?!”
Arsha, confident in her own poison, hurriedly fell away from Suho as if she had been burned.
I didn’t sense even a hint of poison from Suho.
Of course, at this very moment, Suho was becoming addicted in real time.
but.
[Harmful ingredients detected.]
[Detoxification begins with the effect of ‘Blessing: Longevity and Health’.]
[Decryption completed.]
[Decryption completed.]
[Decryption completed.]
… … .
Decoded messages rain down ceaselessly before Suho’s eyes.
“This is ridiculous! You can withstand my poison! This, this strength… …!”
Arsha was so surprised at seeing such protection that she cried out in shock.
“Are you sure you really have another relic of Lord Quresha in your possession?”
It was Arsha who watched the fight of the knights through the bees.
As the knights had done at the end, Arsha also suspected that Suho might be the one who had obtained another relic.
However, it was only a possibility, and the possibility of a mere human being obtaining the relics of a great monarch was extremely slim.
But this makes it certain.
It would be impossible to withstand his poison without inheriting the relics left behind by the Lord of Plagues.
“You, who are already descendants of the Fang Lords, why are you aiming for the position of successor to Lord Quresha!”
[… … .]
“… … .”
Ber and Suho looked at Arsha with a look of pity on their faces as she looked at them with strong confidence.
At this point, I felt sorry and found it difficult to say no.
[The King of Beasts, the Fang Monarch, grabs his stomach and groans.]
“Let’s go, Ber.”
Suho turned his back, ignoring Arsha.
I had heard everything I wanted to hear, so there was no reason to stay here anymore.
“Answer my question and go!”
Towering.
Suho suddenly turned around and his eyes sparkled at Arsha’s words heard from behind him.
“I’ll tell you the answer when I meet you next time.”

But then, things won’t be as safe as they are today.
The aftermath must have been conveyed sufficiently without me having to say anything.
And then Suho goes straight up the stairs towards the ground floor.
Arsha bit her lips with a resentful expression as she looked at his back.
How dare you show your back to me defenselessly.
That must mean he’s confident.
‘They took all my worker bees and now the poison doesn’t work on them? If this happens… … .’
Doesn’t that human seem more like a queen bee than you?
‘This won’t work. I have to hurry up and do the ritual.’
I began to feel anxious that if things continued like this, someone, whether it be Lee Min-seong or Sung Su-ho, might take my place as successor.
In an instant, Arsha’s body was shattered into pieces.
Waeeeeeeeng-
A moment later, citizens in Times Square witnessed numerous bees flying away like smoke.
* * *
[Are you just going to leave that stupid queen alone?]
“They say it’s not the main body, so what’s the point of wasting energy here? Right now, the bigger problem is immigration.”
In Suho’s eyes, Arsha’s beautiful appearance was nothing more than a swarm of bees.
Even if I catch a few of those bees, I won’t get much experience, and it doesn’t seem like it will put Arsha in much trouble.
[Well, since all the knights I worked so hard to gather are gone now, I’ll just stay hidden for a while. It’s the queen bee’s fate to spend her entire life hiding in the hive… … .]
“Release the spirit.”
Suho also removed the spirit ability to conserve mana.
[‘Gangsin’ is released.]
Swish.
The divine wind that had been swirling around Suho’s body died down, and his silver-bleached, fluttering hair returned to black.
Until a little while ago, I had been maintaining my stamina the whole time while dealing with the queen bee, but I needed to conserve my mana until I found the immigration office.
“Gurrung!”
[The spirit of ‘Pet: Gray’ leaves the priest’s body.]
“You go back in.”
“Khuuung?”
Suho sent Gray, who had separated from his body, back to the Shadow Dungeon.
Thump.
That was when.
“Hunter Seongsuho! Are you safe?”
As Suho had just come up to the first floor, he ran into the Baekho Guild members who were about to go down to the basement.
Baek Mi-ho, who was at the forefront, quickly checked Su-ho’s condition.
Then he tilted his head.
‘You said your hair was bleached, but it’s black? Did you unlock a skill?’
Baek Mi-ho, who wanted to see with her own eyes whether Su-ho had really used the beast transformation skill, felt regretful.
I could have asked him directly if he had the beast transformation skill, but there were more important issues at the moment.
First of all, in this fog-filled area, Suho is the only one not wearing a gas mask!
‘No, you said you gave your comrades gas masks and disappeared! Did you really give your own gas mask to your comrades?’
Baek Mi-ho couldn’t just sit by and watch Su-ho’s sacrificial spirit(?).
“Please give this person a gas mask quickly.”
“Yes, Vice President!”
At Baek Mi-ho’s direction, a guild member took out a gas mask from his bag and tried to put it on Su-ho’s face.
But Suho politely declined and continued walking.
“No, it’s okay. I’m just a little busy right now and I have to get out of here right away.”
“That goes for us too. We’re evacuating the other Hunters as well… … No, more than that! What the hell happened here?”
Baek Mi-ho followed Su-ho closely as he was leaving Times Square, peppering him with questions.
“And the other hunters said that Hunter Seongsuho saved them, but how… … .”
“Now is not the time for such small talk.”
Suho interrupted Baek Miho with a serious expression and said.
“We must immediately find the source of immigration and stop it.”
“Huh? Suddenly? What are you stopping… .”
That was when.
“Vice President! We have contacted headquarters!”
A Baekho guild member holding a cell phone from behind urgently called Baek Miho.
“Right now, immigration is causing a massacre on the streets… … .”
“… … !”
“… … !”
At those words, Suho and Baek Miho’s heads turned at the same time.
Pavat!
And without saying who would go first, the two of them simultaneously started running towards the exit of the labyrinth.
“Let’s go together, Vice President!”
The surprised Baekho Guild members followed behind a little later.
But then suddenly I had a strange feeling.
“What, didn’t you say that guy was C-class?”
“Why is it so fast?!”
Surprisingly, Suho was now running at almost the same speed as Baek Miho, an A-class hunter.
The shock received by Baek Mi-ho, who was running right next to him, was even greater.
‘What? It clearly says on your profile that you’re a summoner?’
Of course, he himself had not yet used his main skill, Beast Transformation.
Besides, since this place was a winding maze, it was impossible to run at full speed in a straight line.
But regardless of all that, Suho’s current speed was definitely not that of a C-class summoner.
By the way, Soo-ho was also having similar thoughts while looking at Baek Mi-ho.
‘That’s fast. Is it really an A-class?’
Then suddenly, I remembered that Lee Min-seong, whom I was going to catch, was also a class A hunter.
Even Queen Bee Arsha was foolish enough to think that Lee Min-seong was on a completely different level from the spearmen who were made up of only C-class or lower hunters.
‘It might be a bit of a bother if he decides to run away.’
Besides, doesn’t Lee Min-seong have wings now?
Oh, a good idea occurred to me.
“Ms. Baek Mi-ho.”
“yes?!”
Suddenly, Baek Mi-ho was startled when Su-ho called her right next to her and looked at him.
“How long do you think it would take to run at full speed from here to where the immigration office is?”
“All, running?”
“Then you’re thinking of taking a car? There’s going to be traffic at this hour.”
“ah.”
Since the cataclysm, traffic congestion in Seoul has become serious.
This is because the gates at several major subway stations opened, causing train lines to be cut off.
In an emergency like this, it would have been much faster to just run there.
Baek Mi-ho, who understood Su-ho’s intentions, calculated the distance for a moment and answered confidently.
“If I run at full speed, I think 20 minutes should be enough! What about Suho?”
I could sense a sense of competition in the provocative gaze he gave to Suho.
Although we were running side by side now, I had a well-founded confidence that if I put on my beast-like gear and ran at full speed, I would become incredibly faster than I am now.
“Oh. As expected, it’s A-class.”
chuck.
Suho raised his thumbs in pure admiration.
And with an even more pure expression, he proposed to Baek Mi-ho.
“I think I’ll be much slower than that, so would you mind carrying me?”
“……what?”
Baek Mi-ho doubted her ears.
