Cheolhan couldn’t hide his surprise.
The same goes for Lia, who was next to her.
“I see it over that half-broken wall. Aren’t the crowded white ones skeletons?”
“I can’t be sure because I haven’t seen it closely. I think the skeletons fit.”
“There are so many!”
“A lot. It looks like a Skeleton Warrior and even a Skeleton Mage.”
“you’re right. if you just run Both Cheolhan and I end up becoming two skeletons.”
Even if you climbed the hill, you couldn’t see beyond the wall.
However, it was a castle that was more than half broken like ruins.
The same goes for the castle walls.
Like Lia said, there were white dots roaming around on the other side of the collapsed wall.
It was clear that it was probably the Skeleton, the soldiers of the Death Knight.
And beyond the wall, there is a huge building in the back.
As long as you can see where Cheolhan is.
It must have been the residence of the lord.
Like the rest, the mansion appears to be half destroyed.
“It is clear that there is a boss monster, Death Knight, in the distance.”
“I guess so. The question is, how do you get there?”
It was clear that large guilds did not take days to clear.
The scale of the monsters he could see at a glance was staggering.
Skeletons roam the plains beyond the castle like scouts.
And those assumed to be skeleton archers climbing the broken walls in places.
The numerous white dots visible on the inside of the castle walls did not require explanation.
The problem did not end there.
“I think it will take a long time to walk to that wall.”
“How many hours do you have to walk?”
It was far.
If the distance you can see from the hill is this much.
To the point where I thought it might take several hours if I really went on foot like a horse.
“Because I knew that skeletons were also capable of predation. Let’s go diligently catch and eat.”
“All right!”
In the words of Cheolhan.
Lia responded by touching the cat pattern on her chest.
Where did you see Leah?
He was asking Cheol-han, who said he would adjust the equipment, to do it.
It looks like he was trying to salute by tapping the mark like he did earlier.
The look was pretty cute.
“And go around and organize all the skeletons. We sleep overnight and start attacking the castle in earnest.”
This time there was no immediate answer.
“Then cooking must be difficult.”
The drooping ears were talking.
When night fell and a fire was built around the castle.
I didn’t know that the skeletons inside the castle might spill out.
In the end, a smile burst from Cheolhan’s mouth.
“Then let’s do this.”
I tried to say it the moment I saw the castle on the hill.
There was a plan that Lia had been waiting for because she was cute.
“Because it’s the first level 5 dungeon I entered. I spend today searching around this area. And in the evening, eat the meal Liane prepared.”
As soon as Cheolhan finished his words, Lia’s head suddenly came up.
The emotion in Ria’s eyes.
It was joy and delight.
“Then can you cook? I thought I had to eat my battle rations.”
“okay. Lia, you prepared so hard. have to eat More than anything else, we need to figure out what kind of place this dungeon is.”
“you’re right. I’m going to scout the area around here and gather information. And when evening comes, we cook dinner and set up the tent!”
Lia suddenly became motivated at Cheolhan’s words.
He quickly turns his head around and scans his surroundings.
As if trying to find even a small bug wandering around here.
Of course, there was no way there were bugs in the dungeon.
It was Cheol-han and Lia who looked around for hours as if they were taking a walk.
As a result, one thing was clear.
“There is no body. Traces of fierce battles are spread out everywhere.”
“okay. I feel like it’s traces of encounters and fights between Ranger troops and monsters.”
broken tree.
A place where there were traps spread all over the place.
Arrows stuck in countless trees.
Even the dents made by something huge falling down.
After hours of searching.
It could be seen that it was the traces of a fierce battle.
It was Cheolhan and Lia who caught quite a few skeletons that came out for reconnaissance.
Skeleton warriors were mixed in the middle.
The two couldn’t be matched.
“Spent the night here. Tomorrow, we will lure them out in earnest and start fighting.”
“All right! Then we will prepare the Last Supper.”
“huh?”
As a side effect of ‘Psychometric’, the word was misused.
Lia left Cheolhan’s reaction behind.
I started diligently taking out things from the subspace.
“Cheolhan is completing the tent over there. I will cook here.”
“okay.”
It was a thorough division of labor.
There is no need to dig drainage anyway, leveling work.
And after completing the tent, I just had to blow an air mat inside and lay it down.
To be able to take care of all these things.
As expected, Lia’s ‘subspace’ played a big role.
Lia started to bring out this and that.
After thinking about it for two days, I started cooking in earnest with the tableware I ordered.
‘Is it the right way?’
I thought I gave up because I don’t cook lately.
It must have been hidden as a secret weapon for this day.
It was Lia who moved her hands diligently with a force of experts.
After a while.
“It’s done! You must eat quickly.”
“okay.”
Cheol-han, who came back after installing a warning item around Lia’s fuss, sat down.
“This?”
“Voila. These are the things that I, the best chef ever put together.”
Lia’s table course camping dish started with soup.
Cream Cheese Pasta.
Lastly, it was followed by the rib eye, which was grilled in a small furnace.
Seeing Leah waving her little hand vigorously and spreading seasoning.
In the end, it was only Cheol-han who burst into laughter.
next day.
The battle in the 5th grade dungeon started in earnest.
The current power is only two people, Cheolhan and Lia.
With these two, there was no need to rush into the castle, which looked crowded with skeletons.
small majority.
Only two allies.
So, the method chosen was manned operation.
“If I lure them out and brings them, let’s catch them in turn.”
“good idea.”
Lia also clapped her hands and welcomed Cheolhan’s proposal.
If it is not a large area attack skill.
Because there was no way to wipe out the numerous skeletons in there at once.
“Then we begin.”
The ensuing battle was a kind of repetitive nogada game.
If Cheolhan lured them away from the arrows of the skeleton archers.
Leah ties up quickly.
Cheolhan treats it by making it with bone meal.
If they were ordinary hunters, they would have been exhausted.
Cheol-han had ‘predation’.
It was recovered by eating away the lost physical strength and accumulated fatigue with ‘predation’.
“Leah. are you okay?”
“I’m fluttering. I ate well yesterday, so my stamina is very full.”
Although Leah was worried and asked.
The answer that came back was full of energy.
In fact, there was no sign of exhaustion on Lia’s face.
Against skeletons with no magic resistance.
Lia’s magic doesn’t seem too difficult.
“This will be boring, but I think I will have to do it repeatedly until tomorrow.”
“you’re right. Still, Cheolhan fought tirelessly, so it seems to have decreased considerably.”
That’s right.
At first, the skeletons that came out endlessly turned to powder in Cheolhan’s hands.
Now, the guys who look quite strong are starting to appear.
Skeleton Warrior, Skeleton Mage, Giant Skeleton and so on.
It might have been difficult if it had been Cheolhan at the time when he had just risen to Class A.
Monsters pouring out endlessly.
Even a B-class hunter can’t handle more than one giant skeleton.
but.
Now it was a completely different iron from the past.
squeak.
Let Cheolhan’s sword containing ‘Aura’ pass by.
Skeletons fell like straw.
two days later.
The results of Nogada are slowly starting to show.
It’s because the monsters that are no longer baited are starting to disappear.
“Now enter the castle.”
“All right.”
It was a place where he had already been in and out of several times for lures.
Let’s cross the broken wall.
The scenery inside the castle, which was broken everywhere, came into my eyes.
“I definitely caught a lot.”
Leah was right.
They were the white dots that were full of things I had seen on the hill for the first time.
Even though they had entered the castle now, the number was not very visible.
“Fortunately, the Death Knight didn’t appear.”
“you’re right. If it appeared in the middle, it would have been difficult.”
Strangely, the boss monster, Death Knight, did not appear even during the lure process.
It was as if they were waiting for Cheolhan in that big mansion.
“let’s go.”
“All right!”
While discovering Cheolhan and Lia and dealing with the approaching monsters.
We headed towards the ruined mansion.
“It appeared!”
Let’s step into the entrance of the huge mansion.
Until now, the hair, no, the Death Knight, which had not been shown once, appeared.
The funny thing is.
“Are you alone?”
“It’s strange. There seems to be only one of them in this big place.”
Like Lia said, it turned into ruins.
The Death Knight was alone in this huge mansion.
With a huge sword slammed into the ground.
Like a knight in despair, kneeling on his knees.
“what. I can catch it once.”
“I will hide and assist.”
“no. Leah, don’t step out unless I’m in an emergency.”
“Why?”
“That guy. Because I developed a sense of humor more than I thought. Leah, the moment you use magic, they start targeting you.”
“All right.”
He’s already experienced through Chuncheon Gate.
As soon as they showed up at the gate, they fought 1:1 for 10 minutes.
Literally, it was best to hold the feet so that the Death Knight could not move further.
Even among the A-rank hunters who joined later.
To the point of running towards the first hunter who seems to be able to catch it.
The prioritization of the enemy’s condition was excellent.
The moment Lia steps out to help Cheol-han.
Death Knight might have stopped paying attention to Cheol-han and only rushed towards Lia.
profit.
Is the oil applied?
Let’s turn the Death Knight’s head.
A creepy grinding sound was heard.
“Let’s start.”
Even if Cheolhan became an A-class hunter.
The boss monster of the 5th grade dungeon, the Death Knight, couldn’t be easy.
Even when the Skeleton Warriors appeared as a unit right away, they couldn’t help but struggle.
The place with that much difficulty was the 5th grade dungeon.
The boss monster in that place.
If that was the opponent Han Mu-hak was worried about.
Even if you say it’s inside a dungeon that’s weaker than the gate.
It couldn’t have been easier to deal with.
Caen.
It was because Cheol-han was pushed back despite the immediate exchange of agreement.
“Kuk.”
Despite having eaten so many monsters on the way to this point.
With just one bump, Cheolhan was helplessly pushed away.
Despite anticipating this situation.
The reason Cheolhan chose to enter the Death Knight Dungeon.
『Hunger (S): I feel hunger. The stronger the hunger, the stronger the enemy can be hunted. You will crave to devour stronger enemies.』
Cheolhan’s S-class characteristic ‘Hunger’ began to activate.
It doesn’t end there.
About 10 minutes passed after exchanging workshops with the Death Knight.
The hunger that Cheolhan felt began to grow stronger.
This is what I experienced while dealing with the Death Knight from Chuncheon Gate.
Even though I’m fighting 1:1 against the Death Knight.
If you look at it objectively, it was a situation where Cheolhan was being pushed unilaterally by the Death Knight.
Gradually, Cheol-han starts to go on the defensive.
Let’s stay like that for another 5 minutes.
『Hunger (S): Temporarily runaway is possible when hunger reaches its peak.』
As the level rose, another ability of ‘hunger’ was activated.
Kagak.
The Death Knight’s sword, which had been driven continuously.
blocked for the first time
“Whoop.”
puck.
In an instant, he approached with ‘walking’ and struck with a fist containing ‘Auror’.
As the place where the fist touched was dented.
Death Knight takes a step back.
“how is it? Is it different?”
What kind of runaway is caused by ‘hunger’?
Cheolhan was feeling right now.
Like the ‘Berserker’ Choi Chun-shik used.
Because the runaway of ‘hunger’ was making me more than double the power that Cheolhan had.
Cancan.
It was felt that his stats had risen dramatically.
Cheolhan began to drive the Death Knight with a different level of movement and power than before.
‘left. Gap.’
hooked
Cheolhan’s sword, which moved his body in an instant, pierced Death Knight’s body and stuck.
“Now!”
Lia, who had been watching from hiding, quickly appeared.
As if I had been waiting for this moment.
“It’s tied!”
Lia’s words reached my ears at the same time.
I gave strength to the sword containing ‘Auror’.
gigg.
For a while, the Death Knight’s armor resisted Cheolhan’s sword.
That, too, was only fleeting.
thud.
The moment Cheolhan’s sword pierced through the oblique line.
Death Knight’s huge body collapsed.
“Awesome! I thought Cheolhan would lose!”
Are there any injured corners?
Lia quickly approaches and looks around Cheol-han.
It was only natural to have such a reaction.
Cheol-han, who was being pushed unilaterally.
As if he had suddenly awakened, he pushed the Death Knight.
“wait for a sec. There is something to check first.”
now.
It was time to eat that Death Knight.
‘Predation.’
A shadow rose from Cheolhan’s feet and wrapped around the Death Knight.
After a while.
“It’s up.”
[The Last Knight, Derman’s Sword (S)]
The moment when he ate the Death Knight with ‘Predation’.
The sword that Cheolhan wanted came out.
The moment I checked the information about the sword.
“This···.”
Astonishment erupted from Cheolhan’s mouth.
