114. Massacre (2)
After saying just shut up and charge, kill them all and end the ordeal.
A suffocating silence poured over me.
“… … .”
The three challengers looked at me blankly as if asking what they were talking about… … .
This state lasted for a while, and David Taylor, who came to his senses, said something absurd.
“… … There are many things I want to ask you, but I will only ask you these.”
“Tell me.”
“I really think that if I just shut up and charge, I can win everything… … ?”
“Isn’t it obvious? If everyone in this room rushes in, there’s nothing that can’t be done.”
“… … Whoa. You made a mistake. I’m sure he was crazy, and he must have been a person with megalomania.”
David continued, grabbing my head as if I was annoyed.
“I wonder how you were evaluated by the tower as the best challenger.”
“… … ?”
“You don’t know, but I’ve heard from the manager about the 13th floor ordeal.”
“Is that so.”
Perhaps the fact that there is something I heard from the manager must have been information obtained by consuming the right to ask questions.
There was nothing to lose by listening, so I slowly looked at David and asked him a question.
“What makes you so cautious?”
“… … The skills of individual Vampire Counts are at the top level among S-class hunters, and the skills of C-class hunters are easily surpassed even by vampires who are only at the end. Even vampires cannot be easily killed because they specialize in body regeneration.”
“hmm… … .”
“By the way, let’s go blindly into the city? No matter how good the skills of the four of you are, that’s nothing but suicide. Even if you haven’t heard about the trials of this layer from the manager, it’s natural to be this level of caution by default.”
“Do other people think so too?”
I listened casually to David’s barbed words and asked others for their opinions.
Do you really have any intention of breaking through the ordeal by thoroughly consuming the 14 days as carefully as this wizard thought?
The answer to that was readily apparent.
That would be too… … .
“… … crazy guy I thought you were quite belligerent, but you just have no countermeasures.”
“… … No, even so, it would be a bit like a melee in the city with only four people.”
Because the reaction of Andrei Tarkovsky and Sachio Michimoto came back immediately.
Even Andrei Tarkovsky said as if he hadn’t known there would be a challenger more belligerent than himself.
Then, with that response, I couldn’t help but feel a little disappointed in the three team members.
‘I thought it would be different from normal people because it’s a high-ranking challenger… … . It wasn’t like that.’
They were just people who wanted to be safe without any intention of taking risks.
Of course, it was understandable to pursue safety, but they were top-ranked contenders.
‘Didn’t you realize that growth is slow this way while climbing the tower?’
You must be well aware that it is impossible to be safe in order to obtain additional breakthrough rewards.
But even so, they were just afraid of vampire skills and regenerative abilities.
‘It’s frustrating. The more cautious you are, the slower your growth will be.’
After standing still for a moment, I let out a deep sigh and opened my mouth as if I couldn’t help it.
“If that’s the team’s opinion, then I guess it can’t be helped.”
and.
“I’ll just go and sweep it all up, so take care of yourself and find the cleric and proceed with your original plan.”
After that, I decided to turn my attention away from the team members.
“what? what a cow… … .”
Andrei frowned and tried to shout something at me, but… … .
“This is the best consideration I can give to the team.”
Interrupting those words, I concentrated and activated a power.
「The authority skill ‘Steel Wings’ is activated.」
At the same time, twin wings made of steel splendidly spread from the back.
“Then see you later.”
I immediately jumped up into the sky, bouncing my body at terrifying speed.
“No, what a crazy… … ! Everyone, come down right now! A single action only brings unhappiness!”
“The flight power… … !? What kind of administrator did you sign a contract with to have such authority?”
“What did you say? It was like this… … . He was hotter than I thought.”
I could hear my teammates shouting at me from below, but I didn’t intend to pay attention.
It was worth it.
‘In the first place, if this was a really dangerous ordeal, the Iron Blood Lord or White Crane Swordsman would have warned me.’
It’s because currently I don’t see the 13th floor ordeal as very dangerous.
「The administrator, ‘Iron-blooded Lord’, spares no exclamation for the good judgment of the contractor.」
「The administrator, ‘Baekhak Geomseon(白鶴劍仙)’ nods, saying that we should just ignore it at times like this.」
「The administrator, the ‘Hero of the Ruined World’, smirks, saying that it is worthwhile to support the authority.」
If it was really dangerous, the managers wouldn’t have reacted this way either.
「The manager, ‘The Assassin of the Sea’, is looking at you for abandoning her contractor.」
「The manager, the ‘Mage of the Blue Flame’, is angry with you for ignoring her contractor.」
「The manager ‘Magic Tools Mass Producer’ is interested in you for neglecting her contractor.」
Of course, those who were presumed to be the managers of the three challengers protested through a message from the manager… … .
Before long, these three managers will lose all their minds to say anything to me.

because-.
「Displays the location of the Vampire Count on the minimap.」
Because I intend to break through the ordeal by killing the Vampire Count.
‘It’s been a while since I’ve fought with many, but I’m looking forward to it.’
Thinking of the long-awaited melee made me smile.
***
David Taylor was a clever wizard.
He was a wizard belonging to the Clock Tower, which boasted a high status among magic towers around the world.
He was a high-level battle mage who had been on the front line for a long period of time and at the same time a great mage on the verge of retirement.
Of course, because I was chosen by the Tower of Trials, I became active like an active soldier, not befitting my later years when I should have retired… … .
David Taylor was lucky to be the challenger.
Originally, wizards were those who searched for the truth, and the Tower of Trials was suitable for being the subject of a wizard’s quest.
As always, David Taylor cleverly broke through the ordeal of each class at the top of the ordeal and became a top challenger.
Should I say that he is the elite of the elite who has acquired a halo as a pioneer and has signed a contract with the manager?
At least David Taylor considered himself elite.
but… … .
‘Why are these F*cking bastards ignoring my words… … !’
David Taylor’s irritability has risen to the point where he can’t handle it.
It was worth it.
It was because a Korean challenger who was assigned as a team member for this ordeal suddenly started acting alone.
They said that the trials on the 13th floor are dangerous, so you should refrain from doing it alone or in a melee.
Han Seong-yoon passed David Taylor’s words casually and flew into the sky without hesitation.
Because of that, David Taylor was running like crazy through the woods.
‘We have to move quickly and strategically before that madman is killed by a dog at the end of a melee in the city… … !’
David Taylor had heard from the manager how difficult the 13th floor ordeal was.
The general vampire’s physical ability is similar to the challenger on the 7th floor of the tower, and his regenerative ability is beyond imagination.
However, even the vampire count, who is like the final boss of the 13th floor, is said to boast crazy abilities because he is a special vampire chosen by God.
‘Do you think the tower designated this floor as a strategic battle for no reason? stupid guy… … !’
Strategic combat, the subject of this unified ordeal, was purely a test of strategy.
It was the perfect subject for a clever wizard like David Taylor, and he found the ordeal quite amusing.
Until Han Seong-yoon behaves as he pleases.
‘How did this foolish fellow act on his own knowing what he knew… … ! shit!’
Even while running out of breath, David Taylor cursed Han Seong-yoon in his heart.
He did not dare to follow his plan despite being a poor hunter who had no idea about strategy.
It must have been just a coincidence that that rotten bastard became a contender for the top spot in the rankings.
It was just that he was overrated because his skills weren’t good enough and there was only a lot of bubbles.
However, it was only for a while that he was swearing in his heart, and David Taylor soon calmed himself down.
‘… … Okay. I sent Sachio Michimoto and Andrei Tarkovsky in advance, so there should be no problem.’
After the situation became serious due to Han Seong-yoon’s single action.
I sent Sachio Michimoto and Andrei Tarkovsky to a city occupied by vampires in advance.
David Taylor doesn’t have high mobility, so he’s belatedly chasing him… … .
Sachio Michimoto was the only S-class hunter in Japan, and Andrei Tarkovsky was the head of Carpe Diem, Russia’s largest guild.
Both of them were quite powerful even before the tower appeared, so they must be making contact with the clergy by making good use of their personalities.
however… … .
“… … !?”
The moment David Taylor arrives in the Vampire City.
He found two challengers standing with a half-broken gate and the ensuing roar.
It was Sachio Michimoto and Andrei Tarkovsky.
Contrary to David Taylor’s expectations, the two were staring beyond the broken gate as if possessed.
As if something unbelievable was happening beyond the gates.
David Taylor felt dumbfounded and indignant.
‘The rotten ones… … . I asked you to move strategically at best, but you’re doing that… … .’
David Taylor felt pathetic and quickly strode at the two of them.
With the intention of asking to quickly enter the city and find the priests without procrastinating.
However, David Taylor, who was approaching with the intention of getting angry, stopped right there.
and.
“No, what the hell is this… … .”
understood.
Why were the two challengers looking beyond the castle gate as if possessed by an illusion?
David Taylor was horrified at what he saw beyond the roaring gates.
Aaaaaang!
Now, dozens of vampires are shaking beyond the smashed castle gate… … .
Vampires with pale skin color radiate bloody energy from their bodies and move quickly.
“Write, rot… … ! On this human subject! How dare you fool us with human subjects!”
“Catch and kill this arrogant human! I will offer this foolish creature to the god of battle!”
“Don’t be afraid! The God of Battle is protecting us! You can’t just lose to humans!”
In order to exclude only one intruder, they shout as if burning their souls… … .
The action was then stopped by a single man surrounded by dozens of vampires.
Chaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaagh!
The man at the center of the fierce battle swung the twin swords in his hand as if dancing.
Every time that happened, the bodies of the vampires were torn into several pieces and killed mercilessly.
It was carnage.
“… … .”
David Taylor stood still and watched the nonsense.
Soon, I realized who the man was who drew the trace of a sword so elegant that it felt like art.
“This nonsense… … .”
Sungyoon Han.
The challenger whom David Taylor had been ridiculing for being stupid.
He was carrying out a massacre against dozens of vampires while maintaining a cold face.
As if it was impossible to wear yourself out like this.
Its monstrous fighting prowess made David Taylor look at the battle as if it were mesmerized.
and… … .
“… … .”
David Taylor had to ask himself while watching Han Sung-yoon run wild like a monster.
‘Did I really need a strategy… … ?’
What I thought was a situation that couldn’t be solved by force… … .
Wasn’t it just because you didn’t have enough strength?
