109 – The Best Combination
As soon as the new main quest opened, we went straight into the meeting.
Anyway, the content of this quest was a bit unusual.
Name: In case of joint hunting, points are paid equally to everyone who participated in the hunting! (Important)

I slowly read the quest message that popped up in front of me.
I reached the 5th main quest before I knew it.
Eunbyeol sighed slightly and said.
“Second to the fact that the quest name is long…Don’t you feel like the length of the quest is gradually getting longer?”
“Anyway, the players will be given difficult quests as they have grown.”
Actually, it’s a natural story.
The difficulty of the quest increases as you progress towards the latter half.
Naturally, the content itself has no choice but to become complicated.
Of course, the reason this quest got longer is probably because there are a lot of those unpleasant ‘Caution!’ Phrases.
It was a quest with so many restrictions.
Once you participate, you are not allowed to come out in the middle.
In it, not only the support of the godhead, but also the use of the shop is prohibited.
The conditions for completing the quest are unknown.
People who can enter are limited to those who have a certain level of combat power.
Especially the last one feels a bit unexpected.
‘Excluding us, there’s only one Eunsol who can participate.’
Even if Haeundae has no other outstanding players other than Eunbyeol, that’s the case.
I wonder if the restrictions are too tight.
After thinking for a while, Yuri opened her mouth.
“First of all, the biggest problem is that this quest requires players to fight each other.”
“Kill each other from now on in a confined space. It’s pretty bad.”
The type of quest this time is survival.
It’s not just a quest to catch monsters and survive.
To be honest, if you kill the same player, you get points, and you win with that.
Even promises huge rewards, which is rare for a main quest.
‘In other words, the goal is to make players fight each other.’
That’s not an ordinary person who has managed to hold on until now.
The strong players who must have grown up with outstanding performances one by one.
Even if you can’t do it, you have a very good job like Eunbyul or Hyena.
It must be a case where, like Yuri and I, we were born with special abilities or characteristics.
It is impossible to go out in the middle.
The battle will be fiercer than ever before.
‘The best part is that the player can choose whether or not to participate.’
Looking at the fact that you can’t come out once you participate, it seems that the participation itself is left to the player’s discretion.
There may be cases where it is impossible to participate due to low combat power.
Even if the conditions are in vain, if you value your life, you don’t have to participate.
Of course, not many players would make that choice.
‘If you’re a player strong enough to be chosen here, you’ll know that quests eventually help you survive.’
As well as the rewards that come out when you clear the quest.
Coins and various benefits obtained in the process are also a great help to growth.
We’re probably not the only ones feeling that the quests are getting harder.
Most of the top ranked players will participate in this quest.
Because it’s foolish to fall behind just because of a brief survival.
The Red Queen said she had to keep running in order for her to be there.
In order to survive, she must constantly challenge herself.
“Then we should participate too, right?”
That’s probably why Eunbyeol cautiously spoke out.
However, everyone seemed to have a problem.
Without thinking, it’s Hyena’s problem.
“This is my personal opinion, but I think Hyena should be taken out of this quest for a while.”
“I agree with you.”
At my words, Yuri immediately nodded her head.
“To begin with, Hyena is not in a state where she can fight right now.”
Having lost her younger sister, Hye-na is still going through a very difficult day.
I spend a lot of time alone and blankly.
There have been more and more times when we look depressed enough to feel all of us watching.
It seems like some energy has returned after a while.
That’s just overdoing it for us.
In such a situation, killing each other and doing a quest to die.
Nobody other than Hyena would be able to stay sane.
“In my opinion, it is not good for Hye-na to participate in this quest. And Hye-na needs someone to watch over her.”
The villagers are also actively helping Hyena, but there is a limit.
It’s not as good as having someone close to you like us.
“Then we have no choice but to split the team.”
Currently, only five people can participate in this quest.
Among them, as Hyena just said, she can’t participate.
In addition, she should see that Eunsol should also be virtually excluded.
Since Eunsol, who succeeded Mina, is also seriously injured.
But not as much as Hyena, her real sister.
She is only occupied with her village work and tries her best to forget her sorrow.
Even if that’s not the case, Eunsol is just busy taking care of village affairs.
In the end, there are three things you can participate in the quest.
At that time, Yuri suddenly raised her hand.
“If it’s okay, I will stay.”
“Huh? Uh? Why? In terms of fighting power, shouldn’t Yuri and Jihoon go?”
Eunbyeol asked in a panicked voice.
As I said, there is a high possibility that players will fight each other in this quest.
Of course, he seemed to think that the stronger me and Yuri would go.
But Yuri shook her head lightly.
“Even if it’s not the main quest, you don’t know what will happen in Destruction. Maybe something dangerous will happen to the town while we’re gone. Then you need someone to respond.”
“Mmm.”
I didn’t say it openly, but it probably meant that Hyena needed someone to protect her at that time.
In the end, considering the battle side, it means that either I or Yuri must stay.
“Then wouldn’t it be all right if I stayed?”
“Actually, I am telling Eunsol various things about the management of the organization. Sometimes he comes to ask first, and it’s a little bit like he suddenly disappears.”
I knew that Yuri would give such advice.
But she never thought that this far she would be actively helping.
“Besides, Hyena wouldn’t be more comfortable with me as a woman than you as a man. Because it’s the time when she has to take care of things delicately. Even in that respect, I’d rather stay.”
“… ….”
As I stared at Yuri for a moment, she put on her sullen expression.
“What? Why are you looking at me like that all of a sudden?”
“No, just. I want you to change a lot too.”
Maybe it’s the influence of seeing the text book a while ago.
She felt like seeing a completely different person from the cold Yuri at first.
Looking at the words that came out pretty quickly, I could see a lot of traces of thinking about this and that.
Of course, this is not a bad change.
On the contrary, it’s nice to see him actively taking care of the people around him.
She must have felt something even herself.
Yuri’s face turned red as if she was embarrassed.
“I’m sorry, Mr. Jihoon too. Even if you realize that, you have to pretend you don’t know.”
“Ah, that’s right. I’m sorry.”
As we openly teased her, Yuri’s face only grew redder.
Anyway, Yuri has little tolerance for compliments like this.
From the point of view of teasing, the feeling of hitting is good.
“I just need to be honest and say, ‘Yuri is really kind~ I’ll be a good maid~’.”
“I will be careful in the future.”
“Hmm! Hmm! Are you both joking around there?”
In the end, Yuri, who couldn’t stand it, stopped us with a clearing of her throat.
Since we were in the middle of a serious conversation, we also stopped at that point.
“Anyway, in that sense, I want to stay in the village, is that okay?”
“I have no complaints. Rather, I think it is a good combination.”
Even if it’s not as good as Yuri, I have my own confidence in battle now.
Skills and characteristics are specialized for responding to unexpected situations.
‘The biggest thing is Eunbyeol’s presence.’
Eunbyeol’s specialty is healing and buffing.
Needless to say, it is an ability that can be extremely useful in survival situations.
Especially in this quest where you can run away midway or buy items from the store.
For others, even small wounds can be fatal.
We can respond to even the slightest injury.
‘It might be a more important role than me.’
The existence of a healer in survival is that much fraudulent.
“It’s not that I don’t believe you, but you should be careful. Other players will come with full force differently from us.”
“I see. We’re not the only ones who made the team.”
Perhaps other players have survived by forming groups like us.
In other words, the incoming players are likely to be team units from the beginning.
Only combat power is limited.
Because there is no limit on the number or timing of incoming entries.
You should also keep in mind the possibility of fighting with the entire party unit.
Because of the last incident, our power was considerably reduced, so it’s just like this.
If there were no problems, we would have been able to join a party of at least 5 people.
‘Normally, I’ll participate in quests that way.’
In the worst case, the opponents may form a group of more than 10 people.
Well, considering the participation restrictions, I don’t think the probability is that high.
“Then, shouldn’t we just leave the rest and arrange it with just the two of us, Eunbyeol and I?”
“Maybe it won’t be over in a day or two. Bring some food and something to sleep with.”
“……Huh?”
From noble mtl dot com
I said it because I judged that the story was adequately over.
I heard the sound of wind blowing from Eunbyeol.
Looking up, she suddenly blushed and swung her head down.
……Why are you like that? What else did i do wrong?
