Episode 174 Night Reception (3)
A white mask with geometric patterns.
It was a mask symbolizing ‘unknown’.
“This… … ?”
Ellis looked around.
Everyone was anxious to catch the attention of the powers that be, so no one paid attention to this area.
Empires and small and medium-sized powers, including Fenheimer, seemed to be waiting for an opportunity, but perhaps because they were trying to keep each other in check or because they wanted to save face, they did not approach the area openly.
“don’t worry. “Because we have placed a barrier that blocks the view.”
“It’s thorough. So what do you want me to do with this?”
“Write that… … “You just need to approach Moorim.”
Jinhyuk gestured to one of the residents from the martial arts world.
He is in his early 40s and has a solid physique.
Even at a glance, he is an expert with extraordinary skills.
“Is that the guy?”
“okay. “He is the head of the Black Wind Association, a guy named Yang Ho-myeong.”
The status window and copy conditions I observed through the ‘Eye of Gluttony’ were truly perfect prey.
——————————————————
Name: Yang Ho-myeong
Gender: Male
Age: 43
Level: 65
Strength 35, Dexterity 45, Stamina 26, Magic Power 11, Attack 58
Occupation: Fighter
Unique Ability: Black Sky
Skills: Lv13 ‘Black Tiger God Fist’, Lv13 ‘Black Heavenly Strike’, Lv13 ‘Self-Defense Strength’, Lv11 ‘Blood Death Slayer’
——————————————————
[Copy conditions: Yang Ho-myeong has a decent martial arts level, but has a low status compared to him. Therefore, Yang Ho-myeong is desperate to make a mark. If, after making an offer that appeals to the opponent, he is invited to the opponent’s home base, he will be able to copy one of Yang Ho-myeong’s unique abilities and skills.]
It’s a common story.
A life of being excluded and despised from mainstream power simply because of being from a collateral background.
Yang Ho-myeong, who suffered from an inferiority complex, was an easy prey in many ways.
‘Besides, if you put Ellis forward in this matter… … Unknown’s range of activities can be further expanded.’
Recently, the number of people looking into Unknown’s whereabouts is increasing.
Ellis, who can freely adjust her size through magical power, would be able to fill that role.
As long as you put on a mask and act well, anyone could become Unknown.
‘There is no need to bother editing skills or unique abilities.’
Since Ellis’ skills were so eye-catching, all we had to do from now on was to push forward with that concept.
Since I was able to copy new abilities at the same time, there was nothing to lose.
The worries didn’t last long.
Jinhyuk opened his mouth again.
“Tell him that he can tell you the final result of the Chuhon Sword. “If I tell you that I got my hands on the secret money written by Chuhonsayeong himself, he will react.”
“If it is a projection of the soul… … The original Sword Saint?”
“that’s right. That guy. “You know someone from the Moorim side?”
“I’ve at least heard the name. “I haven’t lived a completely closed life either.”
Chuhon Sa-young was the founder of Chuhon Geom and was commonly known as a sword saint in the martial arts world.
The leader of Sapa who cut through Mount Tai with a single sword.
If such a secret was left behind, it would be more than enough to make Yeong Ho-myeong’s heavy buttocks wriggle.
“But do you really have it? That low level thing? As far as I know, I heard he was shut down a long time ago?”
Ellis asked back as if he was quite surprised.
of course.
“If I had something like that, I would have used it against Cheon Yu-seong. Would you have just kept it quiet?”
Still, Cheon Yu-seong is anxious to master Chuhon Sword.
With just one level, I could have made a second sweet potato that was obedient.
“eventually… … “You’re committing fraud again.”
“What a fraud. “I’m sure I’ll go with a book written by Geomseong.”
Although it’s a little different from what he expected.
Anyway, it was true that it was a book written by Geomseong.
“Just listen first. “If you say something like this, you’ll get caught right away.”
Jinhyuk spoke in Ellis’ ear and told her the plan in detail.
Ellis’ pupils repeatedly became smaller and larger.
And after a few minutes.
“Whew. “I’m really glad I signed a contract with you.”
Ellis let out a long sigh of relief.
“huh? What are you talking about?”
“No, if I met you as an enemy and thought I would suffer like other guys, I think I would have died from a fire.”
It’s revenge against the remaining family heads.
It’s about restoring the honor of the Ataraxia family, whatever.
The first thing I would have done was to collapse from high blood pressure right away.

“Damn it.”
Hoeju, who leads the Black Wind Association, which is said to be comprised of only powerful members of the martial arts faction.
He is one of the best martial arts experts in martial arts.
A strong man who is not pushed back no matter where he goes, whether it is the Murim Alliance, Shinism, or Demonism.
All of those modifiers supported the character Yang Ho-myeong.
but.
Yang Ho-myeong thought it was all fleeting.
No matter how talented you are, there is a limit to how high you can rise to a collateral rank rather than a direct rank.
No matter how much he struggled, his position was limited to this point.
‘So I guess they’re only mobilized for this kind of chore.’
Yang Ho-myeong’s face was distorted grimly.
To clean up the poop that Mo Yong-su made.
I came here to recruit young chicks who seemed useful among all the trivial things.
‘It would have been better to just take it easy and get into a fight with the empire’s scoundrels… … .’
Since ancient times, uninhabited people have to use force to determine their taxes.
Didn’t they calculate the moves half-heartedly and fight with their heads, and the game was lost without even a proper fight?
“Tsk.”
When I even thought about that, I became even more irritated.
Even after pouring a full glass of the strong drink on the table into my mouth, it was difficult to calm the anger boiling inside me.
But right then.
Someone approached.
From Yang Ho-myeong’s point of view, who felt like everything was a hassle, it was inevitable that something unpleasant would come out.
bang!
The glass crashed hard on the table.
“I need to have a drink with you, so if you’re interested in us, just talk to that pretty-looking nerd from the Namgung family over there.”
Yang Ho-myeong waved his hand without even looking.
His gaze was focused on the drink being filled with a gurgling sound on the table.
However, the words that came out of the other person’s mouth.
“I’m not interested in a weak kid who looks like he’ll collapse if I hit him.”
Yang Ho-myeong’s brow twitched greatly.
“… … what?”
“What I’m interested in is someone with moderately useful skills.”
“You bastard! “Do you even know what you’re talking about?”
No matter how much they say that the Namgung family is full of idiots,
The only person who can criticize them is themselves.
This means that it is not the place for mere players to speak carelessly.
I was already in a bad mood, but it worked out well.
Just by slightly opening the inner cavity of an arrogant person, you could make it impossible for them to even breathe.
With that thought in mind, Yang Ho-myeong looked at the other person.
“you… … you?”
The pupil where earthquakes occur.
I was so shocked that I spilled my drink, but I didn’t have time to worry about it.
How could you not know?
One of the players that all the powers in the mid-tier are currently frantically looking for.
“Unknown… … .”
“that’s right. “It’s called that.”
Ellis, wearing a white mask, nodded.
Because her voice was modulated through a barrier, Yang Ho-myeong could not even suspect that Ellis was a woman.
“For sure… … I couldn’t see it in the labyrinth. “When did you come here?”
“I was a little late. I’m not interested in frivolous public values. “After all, choosing a faction wasn’t that difficult.”
Ellis shrugged his shoulders as if he was annoyed.
Arrogant and haughty.
The essence of Unknown’s character is to attract everyone’s attention, even though he does not pay attention to others.
And Ellis could play this character better than anyone else in the world.
Because his pride was so strong that even the gods could give up on him.
‘indeed… … . ‘I don’t think it’s fake.’
Yang Ho-myeong’s eyes narrowed.
The result of measuring the opponent using internal strength. The opponent was undoubtedly strong.
At first glance, there was no end to the magic power… … It would definitely not be someone acting.
‘Suspicions were raised that Kang Jin-hyuk was the same person as Unknown, but as expected, they were false rumors.’
I saw an abomination sipping a glass of champagne at the table next to me.
At least those two are not the same person.
then… … .
This is an opportunity.
Unknown is one of the few players who can be compared to Kang Jin-hyuk.
If they can attract such unknown people to their power… … .
Maybe he will see himself again in Moorim.
No, is that all there is?
Those who achieve this kind of performance under the worst circumstances may be rewarded enormously.
So that you can overcome the shackles of collateral and achieve a higher status.
As the thought reached that point, Yang Ho-myeong’s voice became much softer.
“This was rude. “You may know that our team is not very good these days.”
“I understand. But don’t be too disappointed. “I came for you who are struggling in hell.”
Ellis calmly sat next to Yang Ho-myeong.
“I wonder if there’s something you want to say… … I wish you could get straight to the point. “I’m not the type of person who likes to measure things around.”
“It’s nice because it’s refreshing. Actually, there is only one thing I would like to suggest.”
Ellis took out an old book that looked very old from her arms.
“A grade written by the Sword Saint. “I want to exchange this for ‘Seoncheon Jingi Health Foundation.’”
“Well, that is!”
A reaction that could not be compared to when I first saw Ellis erupted.
It had to be that way.
A rare gem that contains the final outcome of the Chuhon Sword.
That one old book could turn the entire martial arts world into a sea of blood.
‘The Seoncheon Jingi Health Foundation is valuable, but it is nothing compared to that.’
The best gift that must be obtained even if it costs a fortune… … .
Now Yang Ho-myeong appeared before his eyes.
＊＊＊
“Why are you over there?”
“Is Jinhyuk over there?”
Cheon Yu-seong and Teresa, who were looking at the white mask, tilted their heads.
The two people who knew the identity of Unknown immediately realized that the person with Yang Ho-myeong was not Jin-hyuk.
“ah… … that?”
Jinhyuk scratched his cheek.
hmm… … .
How should I explain this?
“I’m just pouring salt into the wound.”
It’s also sprinkled with coarse sesame salt.
Since the person involved does not yet know how painful the environment they will be in, it must feel like they are walking in heaven right now.
It will only be for a moment, though.
“If you’re curious, would you like me to tell you in detail?”
“No, there is no need. “He must be planning something crazy again.”
Cheon Yu-seong frowned.
As if I never wanted to know the details.
“More than that, Mr. Jinhyuk, have you decided who to sign a contract with?”
It’s a contract… … .
Yeah, that was there.
The key to this masquerade is deciding which faction to join.
This determines how quickly and efficiently you can climb the middle level of the tower.
And Jinhyuk had decided where to go with him.
timely.
[Players and residents, please start making your ‘choices’ now.]
Rick, who was on the second floor, used voice amplification magic.
This means that you’ve had enough of talking to each other, so it’s time to make a decision.
With Rick’s words, the air inside changed.
The sounds of laughing and talking disappeared in an instant. Instead, the place began to be filled with tense tension.
and.
Of course, the place that attracted the most attention was determined.
Jeez.
Sigh.
Shake!
Several footsteps were heard at the same time, as if they had been waiting.
A total of seven… … .
‘It took more than I thought.’
The corners of Jinhyuk’s mouth turned up.
fantasy, game,
