Episode 690: The Traitor
It’s a fleeting moment.
Swinging the sword at an unexpected time.
It didn’t take even a second for him to pass the cat’s paw, draw his sword, and swing his sword.
glare.
Because it was a blow that was nearly impossible to recognize but react to.
-Kaaaaaaang!
but.
The opponent was also a formidable monster.
The fake Lee Jun-seok responded.
The bastard had no sword.
He took out the dagger that was hidden inside the sleeve of his clothes by twisting it strangely.
Dagger and longsword.
The guy’s arm tilted because the two weapons had different powers.
-Strange.
A transparent thread comes out and catches me and the sword.
The power has been manifested.
[SSS-class power, the eye that gazes upon the stars is unleashed.]
-Tsuzuzuzu.
[Thread of Disastrous Fate (SSS)]
-It is a thread of fate that never breaks.
-I don’t know what fate will be connected to that thread, but I don’t think it will be very good!
-It’s transparent!
It’s an unbreakable thread.
okay.
You need items like that to attack Fabio.
This guy is the culprit.
I glared at the guy.
It was an urgent situation, so the guy moved, but there were a lot of eyes around.
-Slurp.
The thread disappeared as if it had never come out.
“Evil Eye, what are you doing now?”
The guy steps back.
To other people, it must have looked like a clash of swords and daggers.
At the same time, it would have been seen as a surprise attack at the end of the Q&A.
Even at this moment, the expressions of astonishment on people’s faces come into view.
It was none other than me who was attacking Lee Jun-seok.

-grasp!
“Meow!”
He rushed at the bastard again and called out to Nyangpun.
I don’t have time to go into detail, but I trust Nyangpun.
“Eww! You troublemaker!”
While shivering, he throws various artifacts.
There is one reason.
Preventing others from intervening while I attack Lee Jun-seok.
A person who unconditionally takes my side no matter what the situation.
It was an impossible collaboration without trust in each other.
“I can’t hold out much longer, so hurry up and do it!”
“It will be like that.”
I had no intention of letting down those expectations.
At most, 10 minutes.
If you decide to subdue me, you have 5 minutes.
That’s the amount of time Nyangpun can catch them.
There are dozens of climbers and NPCs gathered here.
The monsters that came up to the 96th floor with just one word are the people of the Union.
It’s just that I and Nyangpun are the only ones who don’t move rashly.
‘There’s no need to completely subdue him.’
You only need to touch it once.
And that’s about it.
‘I can do it!’
[SSS-class power, the unyielding swordsman flashes!] [The fallen angel’s sword (S) cuts through the target’s boundaries!]
-Tsk tsk!
The fallen angel’s sword passes through Lee Jun-seok’s ear.
No blood flowed.
Because what the sword cuts is not the body, but the boundary.
-Ppaddukduk!
Cracks, dimensions, contracts, links, etc.

A sword with the power to cut the overlapping boundary between targets was activated.
That’s enough.
Lee Jun-seok, who is in front over there.
‘Because it’s real.’
The bastard didn’t lie.
As the system notarized, Lee Jun-seok is here.

Even if I look into it with my authority, the information that it’s Lee Jun-seok appears.
Licky and Bald Man still haven’t found Lee Jun-seok.
So the remaining options are:
“Hand over Lee Jun-seok.”
It means that someone else is superimposed on Lee Jun-seok’s body.
It is the sword of the fallen angel that cuts it off.
“Kuaaaah!”
Lee Jun-seok lets out a scream.
Along with that, azalea flowers bloom all over his body.
It looks like steam is coming out, but it doesn’t look like that to me.
[SSS-class power, the eye that gazes upon the stars is unleashed.]
That’s the soul of the guy that resided in Lee Jun-seok’s body.
It’s coming out.
One more time.
I put the fallen angel’s sword in my inventory and swung the chaos sword.
A sword soaring along a diagonal line cuts through the air.
To be exact, it cut off the soul of the traitor who had risen above.
[Soul Tear (SSS) Lv.3]
-Tsk tsk!
A soul that quickly disperses.
I wanted to cut off his neck, but I ended up just cutting open his chest.
[Lee Jun-seok regains his body.]
-dump.
As soon as the message appears, Lee Jun-seok’s body falls apart.
“Deokchun-ah!”
“Hey!”
Deok-chun licks Lee Jun-seok as he supports him.
With the recovery options of the safe zone and Deokchun’s treatment combined, it was not long before Lee Jun-seok came to his senses.
“Evil Eye?”
“Are you coming to your senses?”
“Where the hell is this? No. Ugh!”
He holds his head and frowns, feeling unwell.
It seems that the aftereffects of the shaking arms remain.
Since he used a skill he wasn’t familiar with, his body was bound to show a rejection reaction.
Besides, receiving my sword just now was impossible at a normal level.
You can tell just by looking at the fact that his palms are all torn and his fingers are tattered from handling the thread.
“Listen while you recover first. The traitor has been manipulating your body.”
“Ah! Traitor. That’s him.”

“Do you remember his appearance or anything like that? Like how he attacked Fabio.”
“I vaguely remember. I made a big mistake. I apologize to everyone gathered here.”
It might be confusing, as there are two souls in one body, but I will answer one by one.
No matter what, Lee Jun-seok was strong.
It was also quick to grasp the situation.
“A cultist and traitor from the mountaineer era took control of my body. He used my body to attack Fabio. I have to find him.”
Although I lost control of my body, I am thankful that I still have vague memories.
Even those who were confused understood what Lee Jun-seok was saying.
“I thought it was a fake Evil Eye because it suddenly attacked me.”
“You saw through the truth in the meantime, that’s what Evil Eye is all about!”
“I knew it when Nyangnyang Punch blocked it. Hehe.”
“Put your sword in and speak, idiot.”
Basically, those who support us.
In particular, the psychological distance between him and Lee Jun-seok is close.
Unlike me and the members who mostly chat amongst themselves, Lee Jun-seok hung out with them.
“What the heck is this?”
“We must find the traitor. The mastermind behind all this. That person is just a discarded piece of shit.”
I stood up from my seat.
Lee Jun-seok leaves it to Tekid and the others.
It was a blow to the soul of a traitor.
If you have some ability, a soul attack can inflict permanent damage.
Even if there was a way to heal him, it wouldn’t be possible to cure him right away.
‘I have to find it now.’
If time is delayed, it will be difficult.
Lee Jun-seok catches me as I try to move.
“Harrid Potter. That’s his name.”
“I’m resting.”
I’ll catch it.
Now that Lee Jun-seok’s safety was secured, there was nothing to be afraid of.
“Harry Potter! He’s not hurt, but he’s got a hit in the chest! Let’s find him!”
There is no need to move in a restricted manner anymore.
We use all available means.
“A cultist who sowed discord between climbers and NPCs and betrayed humanity! Let’s make the murderer who killed the Noble Knight pay the price he deserves!”
“Woooooooo!”
“Move! Move!”
Advertisements
“What a f*cking cult. I never thought there’d be a traitor among them.”
“Catch all the guys who are clutching their chests!”
It’s not just climbers.
The NPCs also found out who was behind this.
“Was it the work of those cultists?”
“You can even get angry within the safe zone.”
“I thought it was the first time I saw that kid’s face, and it was you.”
“We’ll join too! Find it!”
We set out to search together.
“Seal the safe zone entrance and portal!”
Tekid’s command.
The quick ones head out to secure the gates located in the safe zone.
It’s only natural that the alert level is rising.
From this moment on, Peace Land is closed.
Those who remain protect the worshippers and Lee Jun-seok who were used as a discarded pack.
Punishment for those guys will come later.
It’s a matter of extracting all the necessary information and making a choice, whether to kill or keep alive.
“Let’s go too.”
“The kids are coming down from the back door too.”
“Okay. Let’s go to the portal first.”
“Ah, I guess it’s more likely to go that way.”
Information about Lee Jun-seok was delivered to Lickjak and Bald Man through Nyangpun’s personal message.
The safe zone has already been sealed off, so it’s just a matter of time before we find it.
If I were Harried Potter, I’d run through the portal.
I’ll try to break through it, whether it be by force or something else.
“You don’t have to worry about that.”
Choco Choco, who was running with us, answered the question.
Don’t you have to worry?
“I already contacted you in advance.”
Choco Choco with the corners of his lips raised points upward.
“The 97th floor is our territory.”
“uh?”
If it’s the 97th floor, it’s the upper floor even among the 90 floors.
From what I’ve heard, the floors don’t split from the 97th floor onwards.
The story is that everyone is summoned to the same floor.
Advertisements
Of course, I thought there would be a separate ruler there since it was on the 90th floor.
“Smile Cap. He’s the ruler there.”
Who would have thought that the leader of the rookie group would be the ruler there?
It wasn’t ordinary when we met at the Helldying Kitchen gathering.
‘What a monster.’
I had no idea what kind of guy he was.
* * *
96th floor safe zone.
“Khaaak!”
Harried Potter opened his eyes with a scream.
A sudden, excruciating pain.
That hot yet cool feeling never went away.
I writhe in bed, clutching my chest, but I can’t feel a single scar.
“Keuk. Kahak!”
He stood up, holding onto the wall, breathing heavily, vomiting, and sweating.
He too was a member of the cult and had a lot of support.
Until the chaos swirling inside the body erases some of the damage the soul has taken.
Even breathing was painful, but he moved.
“Up, we have to go up.”
My identity was revealed.
I didn’t know you would suddenly attack me.
I took the elixir out of my inventory and chewed it, and the pain eased a little.
An item received from the King of Worshipers.
An elixir for when he suffers a blow to his soul because he has not been able to rise in the level of existence.
I went outside, wiping away the cold sweat as the pain slightly improved.
“Head to the portal. Clear the way.”
“All right!”
Worshipers dispatched as soon as they heard the news that the Pujing Union was gathering on the 96th floor.
They are all outstanding in their skills.
Soon a search party will be patrolling the entire Peace Land, so I plan to get out before then.
“The enemy! Stop them!”
“You annoying guys.”
Unfortunately, the portal has already been sealed.
Although the portal itself could not be blocked as it was maintained by the system, NPCs were forming formations to prevent others from accessing it.
The worshippers exchanged glances and rushed forward.
Advertisements
-Kaaaang!
-Quadduck!
Those who have not yet formed a perfect formation quickly fall apart.
The damage was not insignificant as the worshippers also had to rush to clear the way.
“They look like rags.”
-ShiriRiRiRi.
-Push.
The thread that Harold Potter flew.
A dagger followed and flew out, shattering the NPC’s head.
Plus, using the corpses of NPCs as puppets with threads connected to their fingertips.
In addition to that.
[Pavlov’s Mirror (SSS) illuminates the target!] [Full Face Disguise (SS) Lv.7]
The corpse transformed into the other person’s most precious person.
[Physical Memory (SSS) Lv.6] [SSS-grade power, the marionette flashes!]
Physical memory that allows you to use abilities from when you were alive based on the memories of the corpse.
The piloting powers that make it even more usable, combined with the marionette.
“This, this is it!”
“Eww!”
It only took a moment for the NPCs to collapse.
He rubs the blood on his clothes and leisurely moves forward.
The dust clouds rising in the distance seemed to be coming to catch him.
“You’re late. You’re late.”
He enters the portal with a light laugh.
[Entering the 97th floor.]
-Woooooow.
A transmission magic circle that activates with light.
Soon the light disappeared and we reached the 97th floor.
“Whew. I’m dying of annoyance. I’ll take it.”
He stretched and shook his head.
That’s exactly what I was trying to do.
-Creepy.
His body stiffens.
An indescribable presence and murderous intent gripped him.
Just receiving energy makes me feel suffocated.
Harried Potter swallowed and rolled his eyes.
“It’s you.”
There was a man standing there.
Ruler of the 97th floor.
Advertisements
The leader of the rookie group.
‘Smile Cap!’
The way he stared at him with his hands in his pockets was full of vulnerabilities, but he didn’t even think about attacking him.
Splash.
He grits his teeth.
For a moment, I couldn’t admit to myself that I was overwhelmed.
“He was a corpse collector. I thought he was a dirty guy, and he was right.”
“Get out of here!”
I ran, putting strength into my body as if I was cursing.
The corpses collected over time rise up as a legion.
Puppets armed with all sorts of items and equipment obtained through worshippers.
Threads stretch out like a net, and daggers fly into the air as if they have a will.
-Cracked.
I even took an elixir that gave me a short-term, powerful buff, but it had side effects.
The surroundings slowed down due to accelerated thinking ability and magical power control.
“This world doesn’t need people like you.”
-Crunch.
‘uh?’
I saw my own body, headless, slowly disintegrating.
A field of vision that appears higher than one’s own height.
Suddenly, my gaze turned to the world falling down and I felt a dull pain in my head.
That was the last memory he had of it.
