Episode 124.
“Hey, this isn’t working.”
-… …Master, you look so empty.
-Let’s go.
-Ahem.
Jihad and Eliza’s eyes became cold and dry.
And Charlie, who wants to protect his lord’s authority, opens his mouth, but closes it again because he has nothing to say.
Do-Hyeon didn’t care about the Guardians’ reactions.
“I couldn’t help it. Otherwise, my eyes would have been on you all day.”
Because it wasn’t something I did stupidly, it was a planned action.
-The third piece of fate is sleeping. Let’s get the clue to the piece of fate.
Because I had to get clues for the Fragments of Destiny for the main quest and job quest, I couldn’t move comfortably because I was under too much attention from other users.
Because wherever you go, eyes will follow you.
It would be fortunate if it ended there, as there will be some who doubt that there is something there.
‘There’s no benefit to being caught yet.’
Now, I am confident that I can beat anyone who attacks me with a gap of about 10 levels.
It doesn’t matter if there are ten or dozens of people.
No matter how hard the users in this section attack together, wouldn’t they be weaker than Destroyer Gaeman?
So I proudly uploaded the video… … .
‘Interfering with the main quest is a different story.’
Before reaching the max level of 100… … no, at least until you reach the empire, it would be better to keep it a secret.
If possible, it would be better to keep it a secret beyond that.
– Indeed… …! As expected, you are my lord. This foolish swordsman failed to fathom my lord’s profound wisdom.
-Well… … Now that I hear it, it sounds plausible?
-Let’s go!
Do-hyeon snickered as he watched the three guys immediately change their stance.
These guys were really consistent.
The problem is that, although the plan was excellent enough that even they admitted it, it didn’t actually produce any results.
‘No matter what, I thought no one would know.’
Even though I searched diligently and looked around, there wasn’t a single NPC who even knew the ‘un’ character in the Fragment of Destiny.
After all, how could anyone know that more than a thousand years have passed and even history has disappeared?
Even the lord who was guarding the piece of destiny did not know that it was a piece of destiny, so it said everything.
Nothing is visible to the eyes of truth… … .
‘Is it really inside the castle?’
Since Gamillion said that the lord was guarding it without his knowledge, that’s probably true.
Eventually, you have to go into the castle.
Do-hyeon, who had finished assessing the situation, licked his lips in regret.
‘Ah, if only this had worked.’
Although the purpose was to divert the users’ attention, it did not mean that Do-Hyeon headed straight for the ground.
It’s true that I had some expectations.
[Red Phoenix Feather Patch]
-Rank: Hero
-Description: Sir Leved, the great commander of the Knights of the Lyre Order.
This is a special-made badge with only seven pieces made, featuring the red phoenix feather that symbolizes him. It will prove that you are close to him.
Because Do-Hyeon had the red phoenix feather badge that he received as a benefactor to Leved.
There was a phrase that said that it was proof of a close relationship, so I thought that if I proved that I was close to Lebed, they might let me in… … .
‘It was so wrong that it looked good.’
I ended up getting ripped off in a big way.
It was not possible to have a private meeting with the lord just because of my friendship with a famous strong man.
-This is, Sir Lebed’s pa… … . I’m sorry I didn’t see you. However, I’m truly sorry that the lord is out of the house right now… … I’ll give it to you when you come, but please don’t expect it.
When the feather patch was shown to the guard, he looked very embarrassed and didn’t know what to do, but eventually he gave a refusal comment.
Do-Hyeon was confident about that.
There is a high probability that even if the lord returns, there will be no contact.
Maybe there is already a lord inside, but he can’t tell the truth, so he might be making a fake.
‘It’s strange, isn’t it?’
Do-hyeon, who had been touching his chin while recalling the guard’s reaction, soon took his hand away.
Anyway, it’s something that we can’t know for now.
You can’t enter the castle right now, so thinking about it is just a waste of time.
“Let’s go, guys.”
-Yes, my lord.
-Liza!
-What, where are you going?
Do-Hyeon chuckled as he watched the guys each answering one question at a time.
“I have to go take the test.”
As always, if you get a new reward, you have to try it out.
The most exciting moment while playing an RPG game was when I first used the rewards I had earned.

A forest with a slanted moon just before night falls.
A beast was howling between the bushes bathed in soft moonlight.
Krrrr… … .
It was a wolf.
Sharp fangs and fierce claws that seem like they could easily tear through anything, spine-chilling golden eyes, and gray fur that reflects moonlight.
There’s even a distinctive, low, threatening howl.
Krrrrrr… … .
Everything was like a wolf, but he wasn’t a being that could be considered a wolf.
Bipedalism, not quadrupedalism.
A muscular body that looks like it’s going to burst and a huge size reaching 3 meters.
[Lycanthrope]
The race of the full moon, the lycanthropes.
A staple of fantasy, the so-called werewolf!
As they are often depicted as powerful beings, the lycanthropes in Gotohse are by no means weak monsters.
“What? Orcs are real? Heh, you’ve never met a lycanthrope before.”
“No, Sargis is a true legend. The orcs were just plain ignorant, what kind of a horde would surround them!”
“That’s all, thank goodness. The night is hell. Those damn PK bastards… … .”
The power to turn the orcs that caused the beginner warning to be issued into ‘themselves’ and the clever fighting style that reminds me of a raptor!
A being that makes party hunting a must for general monsters!
That’s a lycanthrope.
Ugh… … .
But the current lycanthrope did not seem to have any majesty or threat.
He just shivered and cowered like a scared dog.
The pupils of the man who was backing away shook violently.
What was reflected in the trembling eyes were two men in armor,
Crunch, thud! Crunch!
Break up! Break up!
It was the sight of their comrades being brutally slaughtered by them.
[Transforms into the brilliant blue sword of Taxinel.]
[The effect of the Demon Slayer is applied, increasing damage by 8%.]
[Additional damage of Sword Mastery Level 15 is applied.]
Among them, when a man wearing dark armor swung his sword, his comrades were cut down helplessly.
Kwang! Woof woof!
If you rush in at an opening, you will soon find yourself far away and unable to close the distance.
It’s hard to believe that he’s wearing such heavy armor.
[Light body effect removes the speed penalty of plate.]
[Neat footwork is activated.]
[The more you move, the faster your movement speed becomes. Currently increases by 6% with 3 stacks.]
It was thanks to the effects of Taxinel’s dark armor and shoes.
Even while wearing armor, you can now move faster than before.
This wasn’t the end.
Boom!
Taat!
The colleagues who had been waiting for Do-hyeon to fall back rushed in from all directions at this moment.
A situation where you are surrounded from both the front and back, with nowhere to escape.
Pot.
In the end, the only option left was air.
As Dohyun jumped into the air, the lycanthropes swung their claws as if they had been waiting.
This was the hunting method of the lycanthropes.
Surrounding and driving in to induce a jump or capturing them unilaterally.
-If you get surrounded, it’s over. You always have to be careful about space.
That’s why users always come here to find parties.
If the same situation were to arise now, there would be no way out.
In other words, it also meant that Do-hyeon was now floating in the air, unable to do anything, like a skewer.
Huh?
Krrrr… … ?
Obviously that was normal.
[You can jump once in the air due to the effect of the air step.]
fault.
That is, until Dohyun jumps one more time while floating in the air.
It was a moment when the lycanthropes were dumbfounded by the sight that seemed so natural, as if there was an invisible foothold in the air.
Ssuk-
The tree on the left end and the tree on the right end.
And then a black thread was revealed, forming a triangle around the tree they were on.
[Fuse – Use ‘Darkness Surrounding’ on the thread.]
It was a fuse that had been planted in advance to lure them here.
It was dark and the color was pale so I didn’t know about it before.
Ugh, ugh!
The lycanthropes instinctively felt something was wrong and ran away,
[Fuse – Use width.]
Dohyun was one step faster than that.
—!!!
It was a silent explosion.
A chain of explosions occurred, as if firecrackers made of darkness had exploded, swept away the lycanthropes, but the forest itself was quiet.
It’s like accidentally pressing mute while watching a scene in a movie.
[Lycanthrope killed.]
[Lycanthrope killed.]
… … .
[Level up.]
“wow.”
Do-hyeon, who never thought he would die all at once, whistled.
‘No, the damage comes out like this?’
Even though it was installed at the maximum distance, the damage was abnormal even considering that.
Lycanthropes are those that specialize in regeneration rather than attack power.
Because he was a guy who fought with tenacious vitality and high intelligence, causing headaches for users.
Even though I put some seasoning into it, I caught those guys in one go?
‘In fact, maybe Dobong was the strongest?’
Of course, I didn’t mean it sincerely.
If that were true, then the strongest thief would have been the one who hunted the herd.
The secret of this bizarre deal was with Do-Hyeon himself.
Do-Hyeon, who already had high specs, has improved his specs tremendously by catching Gayman this time.
‘I can’t ignore the fact that Cheonbyeon’s level has increased.’
And Do-Hyeon was proud that Cheon-Byeon’s upgrade played a big role in this.
[The sky devours the brilliant blue sword of Taxinel.]
[Preys on weapons higher than the current rank. Measures how much the user can digest.]
[Measurement completed.]
[If you successfully prey, your level will be adjusted to match your level.]
[The level of the change becomes Hero+.]
[The basic options of all preyed weapons are adjusted and applied according to the hero+ grade.]
Before coming to the field, I devoured Taxinel’s sword, and the activation condition was met, so the level went up.
Thanks to this, Dohyun can now use all weapons with hero+ level attack power.
In an instant, the number of heroes and weapons increased by at least five.
There were differences in special options, but even taking that into account, it was a huge deal.
‘Ugh… … This is really a scam. I’ll use a mythical item for this taste.’
It wasn’t for nothing that it was called the weapon that contained the power that Kashiyar wielded.
And the scam didn’t end there.
Crunch-!
Kew! Kew!
Do-Hyeon turned his head at the sound he heard from the side.
-hmm!
There was Charlie, fighting with three lycanthropes tied up.
It was a three-on-one battle, but Charlie didn’t show any sign of fatigue.
He was leading the fight in his favor by gracefully deflecting and pushing away attacks with a calm face.
‘I thought it was okay, but it’s worse than I expected.’
Lycanthropes are strong when alone, but they become even stronger when in groups.
It wasn’t something a mere Guardian would do to show off his ease while dealing with three of those guys.
But Charlie’s most outstanding ability wasn’t his fighting prowess.
Krrrrrr… … Krr… … .
-Where are you going? I am your enemy.
Great aggro ability.
He’s not a tank, but he’s surprisingly good at holding off aggro even with just one sword.
It was like that in the Destroyer Gayman days, and it is like that now.
Even during this hunt, not a single lycanthrope that Charlie had decided to catch came over to Do-Hyeon.
-What a truly shallow way of fighting. And yet you can call it bipedalism? Tsk tsk, what a waste of two feet.
-Tch, isn’t it full of loopholes? You can’t even kill an ant with that kind of attack.
Kew! Kew!
“… … .”
Seeing that he even throws harsh criticism at monsters, it is reasonable to suspect that he is just trying to draw aggro with his words.
Objectively speaking, the secret to that aggro was Charlie’s swordsmanship.
Ssuk- pook.
I don’t know if it’s Arlen Castle’s vision swordsmanship or Charlie’s own swordsmanship, but he’s good at deflecting and drawing in the opponent’s attacks.
Soft but strong.
The sight of it gently absorbing great force was like a giant wave.
‘Come to think of it, I’ve never seen any information about Charlie.’
I had no idea that it had been a series of crazy events from the first appearance until now, but as I was watching, I suddenly became curious.
So what exactly are Charlie’s characteristics?
‘… … Hmm. It seems like you’re fighting well on your own.’
There are still monsters left, but I decided to trust Charlie.
Since ancient times, isn’t trusting a knight the attitude a lord should show?
[View Charlie’s information.]
Do-hyeon, who had finished rationalizing himself like water flowing, became a bystander and opened the information window comfortably.
