Episode 181 Unintended Alliance
Kwakdeuk!
The bracelet that floated in the air began to swallow up the unsettling energy escaping from people’s bodies.
People who do not see anything wrong with the naked eye.
However, Jaehyun knew.
Starting from Chae Ji-yoon’s attack, they realized that something was missing.
“Well, it’s a bit lacking, but... this should be enough to tie up the opponent.”
Chae Ji-yoon shrugged and looked around.
The magical power of the bracelet that devours people.
Ballack was about to throw himself to rescue those who participated in the auction, but Camilla stopped him.
“What are you doing! We have to save them right now...!”
“I’m not saying don’t save! But it’s too dangerous to run right now. It’s an artifact I’ve never seen before!”
“She is a woman of good judgment.”
Chae Ji-yoon smiled and said so.
Her expression was full of mischief, but her actions were completely opposite.
Chae Ji-yoon opened her mouth while turning her body once.
“But you don’t have to worry too much. Because they are all still alive.”
“Sounds like you’re going to kill me someday?”
When Jaehyun sneered at him, Chae Jiyoon’s eyes widened.
“Because I thought there was no reason to keep him alive. But don’t worry, it’s not like there’s no way to save it.
These people are just in a ‘coma.’”
“coma?”
Jaehyun was well aware of the coma.
consciousness disorder.
A term used to refer to a state in which you are alive, but almost as if you were dead.
‘If people are in a coma caused by magic, there is not much time.’
Coma caused by magical powers slowly destroys the brain.
It means that these power could enter an irreversible state.
Chae Ji-yoon added an explanation.
“Now these people are in a state where the emotion of greed has been castrated. Thanks to that, the center that maintained consciousness was broken, and my mind was in a state of collapse.”
Are you emotionally drained?
Jaehyun frowned at the words that he couldn’t immediately grasp the meaning of.
‘Is Chae Ji-yoon able to steal others’ emotions?’
Nothing is clear yet.
Not even whether she can take away other emotions as well or not.
Jaehyun is worried.
Suddenly, Chae Ji-yoon took a step forward.
“Because people are really funny. The collapse of one emotion makes you a fool.”
She said, sweeping the empty pupils of the man in front of her.
I felt a tingling sensation run through my whole body.
Chae Ji-yoon moved her gaze back to Jae-hyun.
“In that sense, the three of you are really great. They didn’t fall for Draupnir’s greed either.
After all, is S-class different?”
“Stop talking nonsense and bring people back to normal.”
Jaehyun said so, but Chae Jiyoon snorted.
“What if you don’t want to?”
“then.”
Jaehyun made a leap.
―Active skill «Leap in the air».
“I have no choice but to kill him.”
Jaehyun leaped through the air with his mana unlocked.
He swung the fangs of Nidhogg in his hand toward her neck.
Chae Ji-yoon is already considered an enemy.
There was no reason to hesitate.
However, that was then.
“I’m sorry. Because my life has a different value than the rest of the poor.”
In an instant, Jaehyun’s attack stopped. At the same time, an unknown blue magic field began to form between Chae Ji-yoon and her body.
Jaehyun sighed.
This is...
“Gate?”
At the same time as Jaehyun raises his voice.
The bright blue gate that came up suddenly absorbed his body.
Just before being transferred to the gate. Chae Ji-yoon’s last voice heard.
“Even so, there must be a reward... Yes, if you live there, I will return the feelings of the people here. Then work hard.
The antagonist of the prophecy.”
she laughed.
That was the moment.
Jaehyun and the two S-class raiders behind him were swept over the gate.
* *
* ―Users (―the following three) have been sent to the special dungeon 《Valley of Greed》.
The surrounding area was a valley full of sharp rocks.
The dry, dark green leaves make a rustling sound every time they step.
‘under. What the hell is this?’
Camilla.
No matter how much distortion there was, the name of this bracelet would not disappear.
“But a bracelet that feeds on the greed of others. I couldn’t even think of it.”
Jaehyun muttered that and continued cutting down the enemy.
Balack and Camilla were also dealing with Dark Elves without difficulty, as if to prove that the name S-class Raider was not a lie.
‘It’s an object that erases emotions and makes people fall into a coma.’
Jaehyun was surprised that such an item existed, but he did not waver.
In terms of surprise, it was because Gjallarhorn, whom he had dealt with before, was much more shocking.
like that. A one-sided massacre ensued.
Balak suddenly opened his mouth.
“You don’t seem to be a typical raider.”
Jaehyun shrugged his shoulders as if it didn’t matter.
“You said it with your own mouth. I’m a bit of a big guy. So do it.”
“That doesn’t sound like words.”
All of the Dark Elves around them were cleared before they knew it.
In the first place, Jaehyun had excellent fundamental specifications and had the title he had obtained by defeating the king of the Dark Elves, so there was no reason to struggle to this extent.
Just as Jaehyun was slashing his sword, Balak suddenly asked.
“I will ask again. Jaehyun Min, are you a ‘black robe’?”
“okay. that’s right.”
Jaehyun readily admitted.
Hiding it here will only raise more suspicion.
Now that you don’t know what kind of enemy will appear later, it is important to give trust to those who fight together.
However, that choice seemed to backfire.
Balak gritted his teeth and aimed his sword at him.
“Tell me. Are you an enemy of mankind? Then why did you save people and pretend to be a hero when the campsite incident happened? Was that all hypocrisy?”
Jaehyun gave an answer to the question without even thinking about it.
“In the first place, I am not a person who moves for a grandiose cause.”
“then......!”
Even Camilla stepped back and released her magic.
For the two now, securing the identity of Jae-hyun fighting together was more important than the dangers of the dungeon.
However, Jaehyun’s next words.
As a result, the two had no choice but to stop attacking.
“But at least I’m not hostile to anyone. Although that standard may be a little ambiguous.”
“What is that criterion?”
Balak asked again. Jaehyun replied with a smile.
“That is my heart.”
“......what?”
“What bullshit is that!”
Camilla, too, was furious with a bewildered expression.
Jaehyun waved his hands.
“I have no other meaning. It’s just... I can’t keep you alive if you interfere with what I’m supposed to do. That’s all.”
After that, a moment of silence passed between the three of them.
In my heart, the two of them also guessed.
I didn’t know that the Grove man was such a young boy.
Maybe he’s not a bad person.
He said that he might have secretly attacked the great ruins for a reason.
There were also ample reasons.
‘Because Rob could have killed me at the time, but he didn’t.’
Rob’s man. Jae-hyun, for some reason, stopped the sword at the time of sharing the final work with Balak.
It would have been better to deal with it there in order to hide his identity, but he did not.
The two thought about this.
‘There must be a reason for the action of the black robe.’
And now.
I was uncertain, but I heard the answer from the black robe.
It’s your own standard.
‘Extremely individualistic, but.......’
“......Is that so.”
The two of them couldn’t help but agree.
‘Then, the part about my identity has been roughly sorted out.’
Jaehyun let out a small sigh. He stretches and looks around.
Objectively, the situation right now is close to the worst.
Of course, Camilla and Balack are S-class raiders.
There was no disagreement that he had excellent skills to entrust his back, but there was no guarantee that he would be able to have the same leisure as he does now even when he later encountered the boss.
“For now, it would be better to gather strength.”
It was Balak’s conclusion.
Jaehyun nodded happily.
“Instead, let’s make one thing clear, you guys.”
He brushed off the dagger stained with the beast’s blood.
“Your mouth should be heavy.”
Just when Balak was about to reply.
Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!
The eyes of the three people are momentarily directed to one place.
A wild roar began to be heard from somewhere across the valley.
Jaehyun bit his lip.
It seemed that an unusual fight would begin.
