Only I Level Up: Ragnarok - Episode 9
Only I Level Up: Ragnarok Episode 9
[Deposit!]
Ber, who was answering Suho's command, asked again in confusion..
[But if you want to kill those blasphemous bastards, don’t you have to hit them from behind??]
“What are you talking about? I'm going to mine.”
[……!]
Ver jumped up and frothed at the mouth..
[Ah, what are you talking about?!]
Ber was in disbelief..
What on earth is going on?!
The power of the great and almighty Shadow Lord is so great that you can only mine with such power.!
[Now that we are at war with hundreds of millions of armies in the universe, what's the point of mining?!]
“I understand that, but my only power right now is the three weakened goblins. You have to recognize reality. My dad was probably like me when he was weak.?”
[Ha, but…….]
“And you said it last night too.”
Suho recalled the conversation he had with Ber yesterday..
* * *
On my way back home after being discharged from the hospital the other day..
Ver said with a serious expression.
[Solord, the mission given to us can be summarized in three points..]
What a guy the size of a fist said was so grand..
[first. We will protect the Earth from the demonic beasts of outer space..]
“It means go into the dungeon and catch the demon beast.?”
[deposit. As you hunt demonic beasts, your level will gradually increase, and as the Little Lord becomes stronger, the Earth will become increasingly safer. And secondly, we need to find the missing Haein somehow..]
“I know. No idea how to find her mother's location?”
[Unfortunately, there is none. But if we keep catching those aliens, won't we get a clue somehow??]
In the end, this also meant entering the dungeon..
[And third. This is the most important thing.]
Ber's eyes flashed and he pointed at himself..
[I must regain my strength as soon as possible and return to the battlefield where my lord is. It is clear that the tense balance of the war would have been jeopardized as I, a key member of the force, was missing..]
At this point, I was curious about Suho too..
Ver's now smaller appearance is just a way to save as much power as possible, but his original appearance and power were a living nightmare itself..
With such a huge force missing from the battlefield, I couldn't even imagine how the war was going..
“What should I do to regain my strength??”
The corners of Ber’s mouth were torn as Suho asked..
[Of course I have to eat it..]
It was an extremely evil and sinister smile..
lang syne.
In the fragments of a world now long forgotten.
The queen of ants remembered.
- Let's create the strongest soldier.
The queen needed the strongest soldier to rebuild the kingdom that was being destroyed by humans and lead its residents..
So half a year.
The queen eventually gathered all her magic power and nutrients and conceived a life..
The queen's intention to create strong soldiers and the original order to exterminate all humans combined, resulting in the birth of a terrible monster that surpasses common sense..
The monster's natural skill is 'predation'’.
Just by consuming the target, the monster was able to make some of the target's magic and knowledge its own..
……Recalling those old memories, Ber said:.
[My natural talent is ‘predation’. Whether you are a human or a demonic beast, if you keep eating, your strength will gradually fill up. It's an inefficient method that was used in the past, but there's nothing we can do about it these days..]
Be it human or demon beast.…….
Suho felt it again.
As expected, Ber lacked humanity..
‘Because you're not human in the first place.’
The sight of Ber, drooling from his mouth while saying he would eat humans, was the perfect magical beast itself..
Suho said firmly.
“Don't eat just any human though..”
[Hoo?]
“If you're going to eat it, only eat bad people..”
Ber's eyes narrowed at those words..
[As expected, Bujeonjeon. You say the same thing as you, my lord. Long ago, my lord, you commanded that if you were going to eat anything, only the wicked should eat it..]
“Father too? What is the standard for a wicked person??”
[Of course…….]
Ber smiled faintly..
[These are the people who harm our small lord..]
* * *
back to the present.
“you said this.”
Ver protested against Suho’s words..
[So, of course, wasn't it right now to go into the dungeon and level up??]
“No, how can an E-class hunter enter a dungeon alone? They say E-class hunters can't join the raid.?”
Suho was extremely realistic..
Assistant Lim also explained, but the only role an E-class hunter can play in a dungeon is production work..
Later, when my level went up and my magic power reached D level, I planned to go for a 're-measurement'..
‘Because the division into hunter grades is a system that was recently established, there are still many errors in measuring instruments..’
“So what I'm saying is, let's start with what we can do now..”
Suho said with a grin..
Ber suddenly felt ominous at that laugh..
[Why are you smiling at me like that??]
“Our Mission Third.”
Suho repeated what Ver said with a meaningful expression..
“Recharge your magical power as soon as possible. Because I ate it. Right?”
[Yes, that's right. Whether human or demonic beast…….]
“Then how about magic stones??”
flinch.
Ber’s expression stiffened at those words..
“If your ability is predation, wouldn't eating magic stones recharge your magic power??”
[that… … Yes, but the magic stone has a very small amount of magic power, so it only fills the stomach and is not very efficient.…….]
“Is that the problem? Just eat that much more.”
Suho smiled brightly and said.
“It's free if you pick it up here..”
[Wow…….]
* * *
Suho passed through the gate with the miners..
The appearance of the dungeon we entered was completely different from the shadow dungeon..
The Shadow Dungeon was a ruined city so vast that its size was hard to imagine, but this place was a winding cave..
Moreover, each person had a pickaxe in their hand, so it really felt like I was in a mine..
Guardian and the miners slowly moved inside the dungeon..
Inside the dungeon, visibility was not very dark thanks to the luminous mushrooms and luminous moths found everywhere..
Bang, bang, bang, bang!
The sound of pickaxes starting from everywhere.
Perhaps because everyone had experience, the sound of the pickaxe was very uniform and rhythmic..
But suddenly all the sounds stopped at the same time..
“……uh?”
“What is that?”
The miners' attention was focused on one place..
There was a guardian there who commanded the shadow goblins..
[Hey! Crying!]
[Kihihi!]
Three shadow goblins wielding pickaxes while making evil, mean-spirited laughter..
The image of Suho manipulating those strange guys from behind..
“oh my god.”
“The summoning skill was like that.……?”
It was natural for people to be surprised..
The widely known summoning skill was to assist in battle by summoning things like 'explosive insects' or 'sleeping butterflies'..
And the summoner just followed behind him and gave directions like a Pokemon trainer..
“But it happens like that too?”
Bang, bang, bang, bang!
[Kihehehe!]
The shadow goblins under Suho's control seemed to be slightly smaller and weaker than regular goblins..
However, I had enough strength to swing the pickaxe, and above all, no matter how much I used the pickaxe, I never got tired..
When my stamina was even slightly depleted, magical energy flowed from Suho and my strength was recharged..
“and… … this this.”
“This new recruit is really awesome! Hahaha!”
The miners who saw Suho made a fuss and praised him..
“The whole saying that the summoning skill wasn't that good was all nonsense! Such good skills!”
“If we are distracted by this, it looks like the newbie will dig it up all by himself.!”
“You can't leave it like that! Let’s show the power of our seniors.!”
The miners laugh and start working with pickaxes again..
It felt quite pleasant to see small goblins working together right next to me..
[You bastards…….]
Looking at that warm appearance, Berga was behind him, chewing the magic stone like a cookie..
* * *
Around that time.
The attack force, made up of D-rank or higher hunters, was targeting a place much deeper than the mining workshop..
“This dungeon is completely empty..”
“I know. From now on, only wolf monsters keep popping out..”
“Wolf skin is not worth money..”
The collection team that was following behind the raiders and dismantling the corpses of demonic beasts quenched their appetite with disappointment..
Of course, that's what I said, but that doesn't mean wolf skins aren't worth money at all..
Moreover, there were sometimes corpses that contained magic stones, so I had no choice but to work hard..
“Ugh. I need to save up at least a penny.”
Wolf skins were piled up on the cart they brought with them..
But that was then.
“uh? What's here?”
A hunter who was walking in the cave ahead called out to his colleagues..
Surprisingly, there was a huge ruin standing in front of it..
The hunters who saw the scene became very nervous and guarded their surroundings..
‘Could it be that there is a boss-level demon??’
Typically, there was a low probability of powerful boss mobs appearing in D-class dungeons..
But the existence of this structure meant that something special could happen..
And that special situation would never be a pleasant situation for the hunters..
“what is here?”
“Why are there ruins like this here??”
“Shouldn't we go out and ask for more support??”
Hunters making a small noise.
However, the leader of the raiding party leading them interceded with them and looked around with a cautious expression..
“Shh. Be quiet. First of all, there is no sign of a magical beast that falls under my detection skills..”
“Is that true? Why is there a structure like this when there is no demon??”
“Let's find out now.”
A faint smile appeared on the captain's lips..
“Do you know anything? Is there even a hidden treasure instead of a boss mob?.”
“treasure……!”
The hunters’ eyes suddenly changed at those words..
What you can get in the dungeon is not just the corpse of a demon beast and magic gemstones..
Items found with low probability.
Those items were the only way to increase strength for hunters whose strength never grew once their level was determined..
“Leader! what's here!”
As I looked around, I discovered a sword stuck in the center of the ruins..
It was a sword overflowing with unusual energy..
“crazy.”
The hunters' eyes simultaneously became stained with greed..
“It was really a hit!”
“Wow, what kind of weapon is this?!”
You'll have to take it outside and have it appraised to find out, but a weapon that looks truly amazing has been discovered..
“Captain! I'll pick it!”
The man with the strongest strength among the hunters took the lead, spitting in both hands..
“uh? Wait a minute, Kim Yongjun! Just be careful……!”
The captain tried to stop him, but his hand was already tightly grasping the handle of the sword..
And that was then.
A humming voice was heard in Kim Yongjun’s head..
-Who dares covet the sword of the Fang Lord?.
