82. Round 6 begins
The people who approached Ryu Min were none other than Seo A-rin and Ahn Sang-cheol.
“It’s been a while, Black Scythe.”
While saying that, Seo A-rin glanced at Min-ri Min.
“But this person…?”
“There must be no reason for me to tell you, right?”
“Oh, that’s right….”
Seo A-rin smiled as if it was true, but it was not true.
‘Why are you smiling at this woman but at me…? … .’
Seo Ah-rin felt sad inside at the cold response.
“But what business do you have for me?”
“Ah, that’s….”
Ryumin knew the reason, but pretended not to know.
‘You must have come because I foretold you to party with the Black Scythe.’
On the other hand, the two people seemed to be struggling with how to respond.
I couldn’t honestly say it was a prophecy.
After much thought, Ahn Sang-cheol opened his mouth.
“Well, Black Scythe. To be honest, we want to party with Black Scythe.”
“Party? You guys with me?”
“I know. We are only a hindrance. But we promise to do our best to avoid causing any harm to Black Scythe as much as possible.”
Seo A-rin and Ahn Sang-cheol were serious.
I couldn’t back down because the prophet said that I could easily beat 6 rounds only with the black scythe.
“hmm.”
Ryumin rubbed his chin, pretending to be worried.
To be honest, these two are just for filling the number of people.
It’s okay if you have it, it’s okay if you don’t have it.
There were many people around to replace him.
If you open your arms, anyone will come running to you because they want to party with you.
‘But what if I let you two into the party over the others?’
Ahn Sang-cheol will report this fact, and Ma Gyeong-rok will view the Black Scythe more favorably.
‘If you think about it later, there’s no harm in building up a friendly image.’
Ryu Min, who had already made a decision, pretended to be worried, but the viewer was left sweating.
Ahn Sang-cheol impatiently made a proposal.
“I’m not going to ask you to join the party for free. I have information about the 6th round. If you’ll join the party, I’m willing to share the information….”
“Not required.”
‘That’s all the information I told you.’
I muttered to myself, but Ahn Sang-cheol, who had no way of knowing that fact, gave me a puzzled look.
“Why, why don’t you need it? Wouldn’t it be helpful to know the 6th round strategy in advance?”
“I attack in my own way. I have no intention of relying on unreliable information.”
“B-but….”
‘Just in case, should I play a prank?’
Seeing Ahn Sang-cheol looking embarrassed made me feel a little playful.
“But where did you get that information?”
“Huh? Uh, what kind of information are you talking about…?”
“The information about the 6th round I just mentioned. Who is the source?”
Ahn Sang-cheol was embarrassed as the existence of the prophet, let alone the party, was in danger of being discovered.
“Can’t you tell me? Even if I tell you and let you join the party?”
“Ah, that’s….”
Ahn Sang-cheol, who had been confused, lowered his head.
“S-sorry.”
Ahn Sang-cheol was surprisingly soft-spoken.
‘You don’t talk about the existence of prophets.’
Of course, I didn’t say it because I was afraid it would offend Ma Gyeong-rok, but I still didn’t feel bad.
On the other hand, Ahn Sang-cheol was sullen.
‘Damn, I didn’t get to party with Black Scythe like I planned.’
I can’t believe I can’t even join a party.
I didn’t have the courage to see the CEO.
At that time, unexpected words came out of Ryumin’s mouth.
“I’ll accept you into the party.”
“Huh, I can’t help it… huh?”
Seo A-rin and Ahn Sang-cheol widened their eyes at the unexpected words.
“Uh, why…?”
“Seeing that you didn’t reveal the information provider, I thought you could trust me. That’s because I don’t like people who speak lightly.”
“ah…….”
Ahn Sang-cheol took a breath, thinking that if he had mentioned a prophet, he would have been arrested.
“Thank you! For accepting us!”
“Thank you, Black Scythe.”
The two expressed their gratitude and turned to Min Joo-ri.

It seems he is still curious about his relationship with her.
“This is Buffer, who is under a contract with me.”
‘Contractual relationship? buffer?’
‘How did you find out about this relationship?’
The two had a lot of questions to ask, but decided to ask about the contract first.
“If it’s a contractual relationship….”
“There is such a thing.”
“…….”
I was tempted to ask.
I feel like they won’t tell me even if I tell them.
Seo A-rin turned her gaze and extended her hand to Min-ri Min.
“Hello, I’m Seo A-rin. Nice to meet you.”
“Ah, yes… it’s called democracy. Are you sure she’s not the celebrity Seo A-rin? You just changed her face to resemble her?”
“No, this is my face.”
“Yes? Then, are you the actress Seo Ah-rin who filmed [Oh My Paljaya]?”
“Yes. I am that actress Seo Ah-rin.”
“Really? I was just asking because our faces and names are the same!”
Minjoo-ri was extremely happy.
It seems strange to see celebrities on TV.
“Oh, my dear, I’m watching it well! It’s my father’s favorite drama! Among them, he really likes actress Seo Ah-rin!”
“Oh, really? Thank you for your kind words.”
Seo A-rin bowed her head.
While Min-ri Min was excited and said a few more words, Ahn Sang-cheol looked at Ryu Min.
“Um… is it really okay if I don’t give you information about the 6th round?”
“It’s not necessary. Don’t think about telling me for nothing. I don’t want to hear that I got help.”
“Ah, if you say so….”
Ahn Sang-cheol felt disappointed when he drew the line like a knife.
‘I was planning to repay the debt by providing information… … .’
If you say you don’t like it, there’s nothing you can do.
‘If you ever act contrary to the strategy, I’ll have to give you a hint from the side.’
I was planning on helping him if I didn’t act on the information Ryumin provided, but that won’t happen.
Because the black sickle is Ryumin, and Ryumin is the black sickle.
When Ahn Sang-cheol looks away, the two women are still talking.
“But Mr. Democracy. Your job is a buffer?”
“Yes. It’s a job that applies buffs, and I’ll apply them to you all later.”
“I also have something similar to a buff….”
“really?”
“The summon called Fairy creates a protective shield.”
“Summons? Are there any summons?”
“My job is a summoner. I can summon a total of three, and I’ll show you later.”
At that time, Ahn Sang-cheol suddenly intervened.
“I’m sorry for interrupting you. I thought I should say hello. My name is Ahn Sang-cheol.”
“Ah, nice to meet you. I saw earlier that you seemed to know Black Scythe…”
“I received some help the other day. Black Scythe saved the lives of both of us.”
“Ah… that’s right.”
Minjoo-ri looked at the black scythe in surprise.
Saving people who are in danger?
‘As expected, my eyes were not wrong.’
Min-ri Min once again felt that Black Scythe was a surprisingly warm person.
As time passed and people gathered to a certain extent.
[hello. Humans, everyone. Have you had a good rest for a month?]
Priscilla appeared with a flash of light.
[There are 1,010 participants in this round. It’s just a good number. Then shall we get straight to the point?]
A message window appeared in front of the player without fail.
◀ ROUND 6 ▶
<Quest>
└Defeat a boss within 6 hours
[All areas]
└Participants: 16,120,590
└Achievers: 0/8,060,295
[Applicable area C-ESKS007]
└Participants: 1,010
└Achiever: 0/505
The players who saw the quest murmured.
“What? Defeat one boss?”
“Is the boss finally coming out?”
“How can I catch the boss by myself?”
Priscilla, who heard the muttering, smiled and laughed.
[Do you really want me to tell you to take down the boss by yourself? Don’t worry, you’ll never catch it on your own anyway.]
“You’ll never catch me?”
“Then how…”
[Of course, we have to catch it with a group of people. For that purpose, we have prepared something. It’s the party system.]
“Party system?”
[Party is a system that allows people to form groups and cooperate with each other. Five people must gather to form a party, and once in a party, each party is recognized as an ally and no damage is inflicted.]
“Oh, the damage?”
“Then you don’t have to worry about getting stabbed in the back by an ally when you fight?”
“Is that convenient?”
[Instead, attacks from other parties or monsters will work. Only the attacks of your own party members are invalidated.]
The players nodded as if they understood.
The difficulty of the quest was also understandable.
It would be worth it if 5 people gathered together to take down the boss.
[When you become a party and catch a monster, experience points and gold are distributed equally. Even if someone in the party catches it. However, please note that distribution will not occur if the distance is greater than 100m.]
“Oh, the experience points and gold are the same?”
“What kind of communism is that?”
“I guess it’s good that I’m fair?”
“Then how are the items distributed?”
[Unlike experience points or gold, items are paid out stochastically based on contribution. For example, if there are two humans who contributed 70% and 30% to hunting a monster, the probability of obtaining an item when it appears will be equal to that percentage.]
“Ah, so the person who contributed the most to killing monsters has a high probability of getting the item.”
[I understand well, human.]
“So, on the other hand, even if your contribution is low, you can still eat the item if you’re lucky?”
[That’s right. Even if you contribute 1%, you can still claim the item if you are lucky. Although the probability is low.]
“Angel! I have a question!”
[Try it, human.]
“How is contribution measured? Do you get a high contribution if you do a lot of damage unconditionally? If so, isn’t only those who do low damage at a disadvantage?”
[That’s a good question. Usually, the higher the damage, the larger the contribution, but it is not necessarily proportional. Contribution is something that is measured after the system considers and judges all situations. In other words, even if there is a player who only applied a buff, the contribution is affected.]
“Wow…. I get contribution just by applying a buff?”
“Wow, buffing jobs must be shit?”
Just as the angel said.
Contribution is determined by comprehensively judging all circumstances.
Even if the damage is low, if you make a critical contribution to killing the monster, you will receive a high contribution.
Conversely, if you saved an ally but ultimately helped kill a monster, that also counts as a high contribution.
‘That’s why non-combat occupations such as priests and buffers can also make high contributions to the party.’
The party system is not launched specifically for this round.
It is often open when necessary situations arise, and the number of people who need to be involved varies.
‘For me now, parties are just a nuisance… … .’
But you can’t say no.
[Please keep in mind that if you do not form a party, even if you catch a monster, it will be invalidated.]
This is because, as the angel just said, the system forces a party.
You can’t say you want to solo.
‘But that doesn’t mean it doesn’t have its advantages.’
The advantage of a party is that you can cooperate with peace of mind, giving each other your back.
and.
[After forming a party, if you catch just one boss, you will immediately pass the round. All five people.]
“All, all five?”
As it is a shared destiny, the quest is shared.
[Currently, 101 bosses have been released on the field. In other words, only 505 people who defeat the boss can survive.]
The angel smiled and flapped his wings.
[This concludes the explanation of the party. Now that you know about quests, it’s not that big of a deal, right? It’s a very simple quest that you can pass by just killing one boss.]
‘I’m not mocking you, but they say it’s easy to do.’
A sneer appeared on Ryumin’s lips.
Because it’s not as simple a quest as it sounds.
[Then humans. Try hard to catch the boss. Oh, by the way, there are no subquests, so please note.]
The angel flapped his wings and disappeared along with the light.
Round 6 has begun.
