Episode 77
There was a loud noise as Taylor was pinned to the ground.
A perfectly neat match.
The force with which he threw it was so strong that Choi Hyun-seok’s body floated into the air as a reaction.
“Now is the time!”
Royger, who had been waiting for an opportunity, joined.
We must not stop just because the attack was successful.
We must keep pushing without rest to ensure victory.
‘If I do well, I can end it like this.’
Taylor continued to back away and was quick to get defensive.
Maybe we can put an end to it like this.
The moment I thought that.
Suddenly Taylor came out and struck.
‘It’s dangerous…!’
Choi Hyun-seok and Royger stepped back at the same time as if they had made a promise.
A sharp blade of sword passed through the place where they were.
If I had been there, I would have lost a limb or two.
‘This kid is a real monster.’
Choi Hyun-seok glared at Taylor with tired eyes.
Choi Hyun-seok and Roger.
Taylor held out even though two men were attacking him with plomots.
At first glance, it may seem like we are helplessly pushed back, but that is absolutely not the case.
He was like a crouching beast waiting for his chance.
Never allow a critical hit and look for an opportunity to counterattack.
The moment they make even the slightest mistake, Choi Hyun-seok and Royger will be the ones who will lose their necks.
‘There’s no time. I have to kill him before the plomot ends.’
Choi Hyun-seok became anxious.
Time was on Taylor’s side.
If a match is not won within a short period of time, the plomot will be lifted.
At that moment, Choi Hyun-seok’s defeat.
But Taylor didn’t give in easily.
‘It’ll be harder if the guys behind join in.’
Even behind Taylor, there are still more than 20 warriors left.
Each of them has a force greater than that of a battalion commander.
If you look at only the physical specs, there isn’t much difference between Choi Hyun-seok who used a plomot and him.
If they join, it will be difficult to push Taylor like now.
Taat! Blame!
Didn’t they say that bad predictions always come true?
To my horror, other warriors who had been waiting joined the battle.
‘They say words become seeds!’
Choi Hyun-seok retreated in a hurry.
I couldn’t deal with Taylor and the warriors at the same time.
The warriors chase him as he walks away.
Phew!
A warrior came swinging his sword.
Unfocused eyes.
The sword doesn’t contain a shred of emotion.
It looked like a machine carrying out orders.
Choi Hyun-seok dodged the attack more easily than expected.
Phew! Whoosh!
There were a few more sword strikes, but the bastard’s sword never touched Choi Hyun-seok.
Choi Hyun-seok’s eyes narrowed as he carefully observed the enemy’s movements.
‘These guys… something’s strange?’
Obviously, the warriors are fast and strong.
A body with outstanding specs that is comparable to that of someone using a plomot.
As Royger said, it seemed like he was at least a battalion commander.
But that’s it.
Their attacks are just fast and powerful.
There was no sharpness.
‘It’s noisy, but not particularly threatening.’
The enemy’s movements were clearly visible.
How to swing a sword.
How to evade and move.
It seemed so obvious what he would do next.
‘It’s simple, but it’s too simple.’
It looked like a machine that carried out battles as instructed.
Their attacks lacked any psychological warfare or ingenuity to catch the enemy off guard.
‘If I do this well, I think I’ll be able to go easily…’

Choi Hyun-seok decided to try an experiment.
He pretended to step back, but instead took advantage of the gap and attacked.
It was a very simple fake.
“…!”
The warrior who was chasing Choi Hyeon-seok stumbled and fell.
It was a basic mistake that would be difficult to make from someone of that level of strength.
Choi Hyun-seok didn’t miss the opportunity and extended his fist.
Phew!
A fist is stuck in my stomach.
Blood gushes out from the warrior’s mouth.
Choi Hyun-seok continued his offensive with momentum.
Crunch! Crunch! Kwack!
The warrior was helpless.
Although I did counterattack after being hit, that counterattack was also too obvious.
Choi Hyun-seok easily dodged and cornered the guy.
Finally, the final blow was struck.
Boom!
The warrior’s head is struck against the rock.
The bastard shuddered and then stopped moving.
[Level up!] [Level up!] [Level up!] [Level up!] [Level up!] [Level up!] [Level up!] [Level up!] [Level up!]
Level-up notifications kept ringing in my head.
“uh…?”
Choi Hyun-seok was surprised.
Did you level up by killing the same warrior?
Moreover, it didn’t just go up a little bit, it went up a whopping 8 levels.
For a moment, the situation from just a moment ago flashed through his mind.
‘Come to think of it, my level went up a lot just a little while ago too.’
Even when I took away Floclade’s last attack, the level-up notification kept rang out loud.
I couldn’t check properly because it was so urgent, but I think I went up by more than 20 levels.
▫Name: Choi Hyun-seok
▫Title: Reserve Warrior
▫Level: 502
·Strength: 170
· Agility: 166
· Stamina: 170
· Horsepower: 170
·Magi: 135
·Charisma: 74
·Bonus points: 34
Choi Hyun-seok’s eyes opened wide as he checked the status window.
‘If the bonus points are 34, does that mean you’ve gone up 34 levels?’
The floclades from a little while ago.
And the warrior from just now.
By hunting those two, I gained a whopping level 34.
Choi Hyun-seok raised his head and looked at the remaining warriors.
‘There are 20 left. Even if each one levels up by 40, it’s still level 80.’
If Choi Hyun-seok gets to level 80 now, he will be close to level 600 in no time.
If you add up the 34 levels you just reached, the ability points you gained in an instant will be over 100.
Choi Hyun-seok’s head started to roll quickly.
‘If I handle them all and raise my abilities, I’ll be able to beat Taylor. The key is whether my body can handle it…’
The problem was time.
Will my body be able to hold out until I kill 20 warriors and then Taylor?
Choi Hyun-seok smiled faintly.
‘I have no choice.’
I think it was either all or nothing.
It’s a question of whether to live or die.
If you don’t do it, you die.
If you fail, you die.
So it is bound to succeed.
“Commander! Please hold on for a moment!”
Choi Hyun-seok shouted at Roger.
And then he ran straight towards the warriors.
From now on, it was a race against time.
***
Swords intertwine with swords.
A workshop that moves so fast that it is difficult to follow with the eyes.
It may seem fierce at first glance, but the reality is different.
‘Damn… Am I going to get pushed back even if I use a plomot?’
Against Taylor, Royger just kept stepping back.
Since Choi Hyun-seok, who was fighting alongside me, left, this is all I can do to hold on.
There, other warriors also attacked whenever they had the chance.
It wasn’t a very threatening attack because it was so simple, but it was powerful.
If we are even slightly attacked by a blind attack, this precarious balance will collapse in an instant.
That’s why Royger couldn’t let his guard down for even a moment.
‘Choi Hyun-seok. What on earth are you thinking…!’
Royger glanced in the direction where Choi Hyun-seok was.
Choi Hyun-seok engages in a close battle against warriors.
One can guess why he behaves like that.
He probably intends to deal with all the other warriors who are in his way before fighting Taylor.
But is that really the right way?
Rogers couldn’t help but wonder.
Time is on the other side.
As the battle drags on, Choi Hyun-seok and Roiger, who are using the Flomote, become more dangerous.
In this situation, is it right to leave Taylor, who is the most threatening, alone and deal with the leftovers?
‘I believe that you are doing this because you have thoughts.’
There are many things I want to ask, but for now, I have no choice but to follow wherever Choi Hyun-seok goes.
Wedge!
Roiger stepped back again, avoiding the flying sword.
“You little rat. Didn’t you demons feel ashamed to run away?”
Taylor’s tone was full of mockery.
It was a criticism of Royger’s behavior of constantly running away and wasting time.
Any other demon would have been furious, but Royger was different.
His specialties were stealth and mobility.
Royger, who was born into a noble family and was smart, hated being treated like other demons.
“I wish you had said it was a strategy, not running away.” “Ha, these guys are really annoying.”
Taylor roughly ran a hand through her hair.
Although he looked relaxed, he was also impatient.
Now there are only about ten warriors left.
It was a huge loss considering that there were over 50 warriors there when we first arrived.
“The Pope is going to start talking nonsense about repentance and atonement again.”
“what?”
“It’s nothing.”
Taylor lowered his posture and glared at me with a sullen look.
“I’ll tell you in advance, you two. Don’t even think about dying nicely.” “Oh, I’m so scared I’ll pass out.”
A fierce battle has begun again.
In the blink of an eye, several sword strikes flew at each other.
As time passed, Royger’s body became drenched in sweat and became heavy like water-soaked cotton.
In contrast, Taylor’s tempo is still similar to the first one.
His breathing was also rough, but it was still good compared to Royger’s.
“Ugh…!”
Gradually, the wounds on Royger’s body increased.
Since I used a plomot that forced me to use up all my stamina, it was natural that I would become at a disadvantage as the battle went on.
Royger urgently looked in the direction where Choi Hyun-seok was.
‘Choi Hyun-seok. How long do I have to wait…?’
Suddenly, Roger’s eyes opened wide.
Kwajik!
Choi Hyun-seok was crushing the warrior’s head with his fist.
That was the end.
There were no more enemies left there.
They are all dead.
‘whenever…?’
It wasn’t that long of a time.
While exchanging blows with Taylor, Choi Hyun-seok took care of all the warriors, which numbered over 20.
Considering that the level of the warriors is all battalion commander level or higher, this is an absurd speed.
Some of them were even regimental commanders.
Even if he uses a flume, it is not an enemy that can be easily dealt with with Choi Hyun-seok’s abilities.
“Phew…”
Choi Hyun-seok, who was left alone, caught his breath.
In the aftermath of the second stage of the flume, his body was red as blood and thick steam rose from it.
In addition, there is a large horn growing on its head.
Even though he is human, he is more of a demon than anyone else
It was Choi Hyun-seok with the same appearance.
He met Roger’s eyes and nodded.
“Let’s get right into the finishing touches.”
Finally ready to hunt the last boss.
***
Before this match started, Choi Hyun-seok’s level was 466.
And now that he’s dealt with the Floklades and all the soulless doll-like warriors, his level is 578.
Choi Hyun-seok, who rose to level 112, showed movements on a completely different level than before.
Fight!
The moment Choi Hyun-seok thought he had kicked the ground, he had already reached Taylor.
“This guy…!”
Taylor swung his sword frantically, but it only cut through the air.
Choi Hyun-seok dodged the sword exquisitely and struck with his fist.
“Cough!”
Until a moment ago, Taylor was faster than Choi Hyun-seok using the plomot.
But now that Choi Hyun-seok’s level has risen.
The speed of the two reached almost the same level.
“You’re not that one.”
“Ugh…!”
Taylor didn’t answer.
He just had a hard time blocking the attacks and glaring at Choi Hyeon-seok.
Choi Hyun-seok continued speaking without paying attention.
“I only kill those stronger than me.”
It’s always been that way.
Choi Hyun-seok has fought enemies who are overwhelmingly stronger than him.
And won.
To put it another way, it would be like this.
Assuming similar physical specifications, Choi Hyun-seok has never lost a match.
Crunch, crunch! Crunch!
Fists and feet fly like crazy.
Taylor fought without backing down and without giving an inch.
Royger watched the battle between the two, lost in thought.
‘When did you grow up like that…’
Although his physical abilities have improved dramatically thanks to the Flumot, Choi Hyun-seok was just an ordinary human being until recently.
It is said that he was a slave even before coming to the Black Giant.
Such Choi Hyeon-seok is now fighting on equal terms with the enemy who is close to the division commander.
It was a reality that I couldn’t believe even after seeing it with my own two eyes.
‘Oops, this is not the time!’
Royger, who realized his mistake in that moment, immediately joined the battle.
Now was not the time to be so relaxed.
“Let’s push on! It’s almost over!”
With Royger’s arrival, the tables were turned completely.
Taylor’s body gradually becomes covered in wounds.
Blood began to flow out from various places.
“Ugh, ugh…!”
Taylor glared at them both, gasping for breath.
‘You guys. Why won’t the plomot be released!?’
Both Royger and Choi Hyun-seok looked exhausted.
The problem is that Taylor’s own physical strength is limited.
The only hope is for those two to be released from their plomots.
To do that, it was necessary to buy time.
“You… What are you? Are you human or demon?”
There’s nothing like talking to kill time.
However, Choi Hyun-seok was not so easygoing.
Instead of the expected answer, what came back was a fist.
“Shut up, I’m busy!”
Kwajik!
Taylor staggers, a fist lodged in his face.
Choi Hyun-seok grabbed the bastard’s arm.
He too was beginning to sense that his body was reaching its limits.
I prepare for the end, forcing myself to hold on to my dizzying mind.
“Don’t even think about running away.”
Grab Taylor’s arm and twist it.
At the same time, Royger’s sword stabbed Taylor in the chest.
Taylor’s eyes opened wide.
“Keuk! T, this is not how it can go on…”
“Just go away.”
He trips Taylor by tripping him.
At the same time, I kicked the head of the guy who was falling with all my might.
Boom!
Taylor didn’t die even after a full-force soccer kick.
Choi Hyun-seok kicked Taylor’s head repeatedly.
Boom! Boom! Kwaang!
Finally, Taylor’s eyes opened and the magical power protecting his body dissipated.
“I’ll put my experience to good use.”
Finally, he raised his fist and struck the bastard’s head down.
Kwajik!
Taylor fell to the ground with his head half shattered.
Choi Hyun-seok also collapsed on the floor as if he was collapsing.
“Haa… Tough guy…”
I don’t know if the person I’m fighting is a person or a monster.
Honestly, I still doubt if he’s really dead.
The enemy was that persistent.
[Level up!] [Level up!] [Level up!] [Level up!] [Level up!] [Level up!] [Level up!] … .
The notification I heard told me that Choi Hyun-seok had won.
Taylor is completely dead.
Soon after, a notification came that the quest was completed.
[Completed the warrior quest]
[Receive 1,000 Warrior Points]
[Perfectly achieved the additional objective of clearing out a group of warriors]
[Hidden stat Fighting Spirit is unlocked as a reward]
Countless ringing notifications.
Enjoying it, Choi Hyun-seok collapsed on the floor.
