8. Angel Slayer
[He murdered an angel.]
[It was confirmed that he was the first player to kill an angel.]
[Obtain the title ‘The First Angel Slayer.’]
[‘Angel’s Blood’ was obtained as a reward for killing the first angel.]
[The ‘Rune of Massacre’ was given as a reward for killing the first angel.]
[The acquired runes are automatically imprinted on the player’s body!]
An average person would not have been able to come to their senses from the message that was floating around.
‘It’s a situation I’ve been through dozens of times, and it’s a reward I’ve received dozens of times.’
Ryumin calmly checked the reward.
[Angel’s Blood]
– Category: Consumables
-Grade: Unique
-Effect: ‘Reaper’ transfer possible
– Restrictions on use: Level 10 or higher
-Description: An item provided to the first player to kill an angel. Only those who kill an angel, the Shinigami’s natural enemy, are eligible to advance to the Shinigami class.
Players can take up jobs starting at level 10.
There were a total of 30 different jobs, and the way to change jobs was simple.
The goal is to obtain former items.
‘Just like I got now.’
An item with a picture of a golden liquid appears in Ryumin’s inventory.
It is angel blood that is given only to the person who first kills an angel.
It is also an item that allows you to change jobs to the only class, Shinigami.
‘As expected, I am the first person to kill an angel.’
It might be later, but at this point, no one had any intention of going against the angel.
Unless you are crazy about wanting to die.
Of course, it has to be the first.
‘I also got a title.’
Ryu Min touched the title he had acquired to check it.
[Title – First Angel Slayer]
– Conditions for acquisition: Obtained when you kill an angel for the first time.
-Effect: All stats double when dealing with a divine type.
I checked and it was definitely a title I had earned before.
It is an excellent title when dealing with angels or divine monsters.
Ryumin’s eyes turned to the last reward he received.
[Rune of Massacre]
-Effect: Every time you kill a target, all stats increase by 1% (maximum 100%). Lasts until the end of the round.
Runes were engraved on Ryumin’s body.
This is the reward for killing the first angel.
‘The angels will be shocked if they find out that I have already obtained one rune.’
That’s why runes are not easy to obtain.
Runes are difficult to obtain even once per round.
It was almost safe to say that it was difficult to find unique items.
‘It’s the standard of an average player who is not good at strategy.’
This was not the case for Ryumin, who had already exhausted his attacks.
‘You need to get more runes than the previous time and become stronger.’
It was the last time, so there was nowhere to retreat now.
We must become strong by any means possible.
‘Unfortunately, even if I kill the angel now, I won’t be able to get any reward.’
The rewards currently obtained are only given to the person who first kills the angel.
There is nothing to be gained by other people killing angels.
Therefore, there was only one Shinigami class.
‘Angels don’t even dream. ‘I never thought there would be such a reward hidden in my own body.’
Ryu Min also didn’t know about this until the 12th episode.
Like everyone else, he was frightened by the angel’s power and recognized it as a being that should not be confronted.
However, starting from the 13th episode, I learned about the first reward while taking revenge on the angel.
‘If you kill an angel, you will get the materials needed for a hidden job…’ … .’
From then on, an angel was killed every time the episode was repeated.
There is no reason not to kill him when he is trying to stab him in the back and even gives him a hidden reward.
‘It started from this time. ‘I started to delve into the Shinigami class in earnest.’
Meanwhile, Ryu Min survived by working as a hunter.
But I knew it the moment I changed jobs to Shinigami.
That being a reaper is a much better job than being a hunter.
‘Bonus stats, advancement runes, skill composition, etc. ‘It’s a flawless job.’
It wasn’t the only class for nothing.
It was a strong and good job that other players would envy.
‘Even so, I couldn’t even beat the final round and came back.’
Still, there was no job like that of a Shinigami, so Ryu Min aimed for an angel this time.

He deliberately offended the angel and forced him to change location.
Before getting hit by a dagger, I hit him in the back like I did now.
Kill the angel and get a huge reward from the first round.
‘From then on, I abandoned being a hunter and became a reaper.’
Each time the episode was repeated, Ryumin killed the angel in the same way.
There was no mercy because he was a guy who was trying to stab him in the back.
In the process, Ryu Min found out.
How weak angels are.
The ability to explode a head was only a one-time thing.
‘I got a lot of information other than that.’
In addition to receiving compensation, information was also obtained by torturing the angel.
The group of angels, their ecology, roles, purpose of the game, rights to use the system, etc.
But even the angels did not know the key information.
‘It’s just a Janggi that was ordered from above to act as a guide.’
I guess there must be someone behind it who is comparable to God, but… … .
‘You can find out more details only when you reach the stage where you can defeat the final boss and make your wish come true.’
After finishing checking the reward, Ryu Min reached into his inventory.
It is time to use the special reward selection box received as the first place reward in the entire region.
‘use.’
[You can choose one of the following special rewards.]
[Please touch the reward you want.]
└ 1. Experience 3x increase buff (limited to 2 rounds)
└ 2. 2,000 gold
└ 3. Information about round 2
There were three options, but Ryumin didn’t worry.
‘The important thing now is to quickly reach level 10 and change jobs.’
Ryumin immediately chose reward number 1.
[You have selected the 3x experience increase buff.]
[The buff is automatically applied at the start of the second round.]
There is still a month left until the second round, but I chose the reward in advance.
There was nothing else to choose from other than 3x the experience.
‘Receiving 2,000 gold isn’t bad, but now it’s better to change jobs as quickly as possible.’
When you change jobs, you gain skills.
And the value of skill in this game is beyond imagination.
‘It is a skill that has a value almost equivalent to three runes.’
Of course, the player’s power doubles depending on whether he has a skill or not.
In addition, you will receive rune rewards to commemorate your job change, so the sooner you get a job, the more you will reap the benefits.
‘Reward number 3 is not worth choosing.’
Reward number 3, which gave information about the second round, was meaningless to Ryu Min.
Because he already knew the information up to the 20th round.
Ryumin looked down at the angel’s body with indifferent eyes.
The golden, sparkling blood began to evaporate along with the corpse.
sssss-
Soon, the angel’s body scattered like powder and disappeared completely.
They, who are originally spirits, disappear along with their bodies after a certain period of time.
‘It’s nice that I don’t have to bother cleaning up the body. ‘No evidence left.’
Ryu Min looked around, thinking he might not know anything.
The sky was carefully scanned, but there were no witnesses.
‘I killed him at the same point and at the same time, so there shouldn’t be a problem.’
I killed it the way I had been doing it all along.
Not only are there no witnesses, but no other angel knows.
‘They are originally a selfish and self-loving people who don’t care about anyone but themselves… … .’
You might wonder why you can’t see it, but that’s it.
‘He will be replaced by another angel from the second round. Just as I’ve been through all this time.’
There was no need to worry because there were no witnesses or evidence.
Even if there are no angels, you can return without any problems.
Although you will not receive detailed instructions regarding your return.
◀ End of ROUND 1 ▶

[After a while, the soul is transferred to the body in the existing dimension.]
[Round 2 begins at midnight on February 1, 2022. Well then, see you in the next round. Congratulations on your survival.]
At the end of the message, Ryumin and the people trapped in the pillar disappeared.
* * *
“omg!”
Hwang Yong-min raised his upper body, exhaling as if he had come back to life.
The first thing he saw was a large number of people.
‘W-what about here? ‘It’s the bell-ringing scene, right?’
People who were sleeping on the floor raised their upper bodies.
It was as if I was seeing myself from a moment ago, looking around in confusion.
Hwang Yong-min immediately picked up his cell phone and checked the time.
‘5:20… … ?’
The date is January 1, 2022.
Five hours and 20 minutes had passed since the bell-ringing ceremony.
It roughly corresponded to the time spent in the dream.
“Ooh, my head….”
“My limbs all hurt.”
One by one, my friends who were sleeping on the street nearby came to their senses.
“Huh? Yongmin!”
“Are you awake?”
“Was I sleeping?”
“Uh. Not just you, but everyone here.”
“omg…….”
“What? We fell asleep in a group?”
“Wait, so you’re saying it was a dream?”
“Still, I had a f*cking weird dream….”
“Uh, me too!”
“Yongmin, did you dream too?”
“Uh, but….”
Hwang Yong-min, who was looking around, said with a serious expression.
“I don’t think it was a dream?”
“what?”
“Listen carefully to what people say.”
Friends listened to Hwang Yong-min’s words.
“Are we back? Are we really back from that hell…!”
“What is it? I’m definitely a goblin….”
“I lived… I lived!”
As people mumbled their voices, their expressions gradually turned earthy.
After listening to the story, it seems like I had the same dream.
“This many people fell asleep in a group and had the same dream? It doesn’t make sense.”
“I see….”
Too many people have experienced the same thing to be dismissed as a dream.
“So that’s all reality? Goblins, round 1, and such…?”
“Well, then I have to be called in for round 2 on the 1st of next month?”
“Ha… f*ck.”
My friends lowered their heads at the miserable reality, but this wasn’t even on the dark side.
“Hey, but why doesn’t he wake up?”
“Taesik, wake up. Taesik!”
One of my friends was still asleep.
Motionless, as if dead.
“f*ck you! I touched your nose and I don’t think you’re breathing!”
“Listen to your heart! Can you hear it?”
Friends urgently checked to see if Taesik was alive or dead.
However, the results that came back were disappointing.
“My heart isn’t racing.”
“what?”
“So… are you dead?”
“Taesik…died?”
I couldn’t believe my friend’s death, but that didn’t mean I couldn’t understand it.
“This bastard… you couldn’t catch all 100 of them?”
“Or maybe you didn’t make it into the first half…?”
If the rules of the game were followed, my friend’s death was understandable.
Moreover, Taesik wasn’t the only one who couldn’t get up.
Almost half of the people were still lying on the cold asphalt floor.
“No way, all the people here who can’t wake up….”
“dead body?”
“Ugh…!”
Nausea flooded me as I thought of it as a corpse.
It didn’t matter if it was a goblin’s corpse, but the corpse of a human was disgusting.
“Did you really only half survive?”
“f*ck it, what about the next round?”
“Will I survive?”
Although the friends were already worried, Hwang Yong-min remained calm.
No, I pretended to be calm and held back my laughter.
If you laugh in this situation, not only your friends but also other people will look at you like you’re crazy.
‘If this is not a dream but reality, then not only I have become X, but everyone in the world has become X, right?’
To be exact, it was from the age of 15 to 29, but guess what?
There are so many comrades whose lives have been pledged.
‘Is this killing me? ‘Don’t you think everyone should survive equally, regardless of whether they have a silver spoon or not?’
I was envious of people who were happy with their parents and lived happily ever after.
On the other hand, I wonder why my life is like this and feel unfair.
‘There is no need to lament that life is unfair anymore. ‘Tsk tsk tsk.’
In any case, life is like barracks that even parents have given up on.
As soon as I graduated from school, I wanted to become a gangster.
Because we know that gangsters these days make good money through illegal work.
“Don’t worry, bastards. Just survive, so what’s worrying?”
“But it’s unfair… If I die before I’ve even had a chance to play properly…”
“Not only us, but also other people are being caught in this situation, so what’s there to be unfair about?”
Hwang Yong-min’s friends were speechless.
Instead, I just curse inside.
‘f*ck… … ‘You’re at the end of your life, so it wouldn’t be unfair if you died right now.’
‘I still have a lot of things I want to do… … .’
Without knowing what his friends were thinking, Hwang Yong-min was looking around his head as if he was looking for someone.
“what’s the matter?”
“Oh, it suddenly occurred to me that I looked for it, but I can’t see that bastard?”
“Who? Your private shuttle?”
Hwang Yong-min nodded.
No matter how hard I search, I can’t find Ryu Min.
‘Where has this bastard gone? I think I saw it from over there before I fell asleep… … ? Could it be that he died without even passing the first round?’
Hwang Yong-min soon became convinced and gave up the search.
‘Well, if you’re such a bastard, you could have died a long time ago.’
There is no way such a weak guy could survive the competition.
I click my tongue and turn my head.
‘huh?’
Hwang Yong-min sees a person wearing strange armor.
‘What is it, that person? Where did you get such tacky clothes? … .’
At that moment, a thought passed through Hwang Yong-min’s mind like lightning.
‘no way?’
Hwang Yong-min, who immediately put his hypothesis into practice, shouted to his friends.
“Hey! Everyone, turn on the status window! It works!”
“Huh? Status window?”
“That can’t be possible….”
“Huh? It really works, right?”
When I said status window to myself, a translucent window that only I could see came to mind.
A system that was thought to only apply in the other world could be used in real life.
“What happened?”
“Was it originally something that could be used in real life?”
“Huh… So all the stats and items are applied?”
In other words, it means that even in reality, one can exert power beyond humans.
‘It’s amazing?’
The corners of Hwang Yong-min and his friends’ mouths rose happily.
It was a ray of hope seen in despair.
