Only I Level Up: Ragnarok - Episode 17
Only I Level Up: Ragnarok Episode 17
[‘Title: Wolf Slayer' buff effect is activated.]
Boom!
Suho's feet hit the ground.
wedge-
Suho’s new model stretched out in a straight line..
In front of him, he saw Brockie's expression filled with astonishment..
[What is this……!]
Something crazy happened.
The power and speed of protection.
Momentum bursting from the whole body.
Everything changed in an instant.
All stats obtained by leveling up +1.
Additional stats obtained as quest rewards +5.
In addition, there is even a title that boosts all abilities by a whopping +40% against beast-type monsters..
All that synergy was focused on the Guardian Sword..
Dual swords. Storm Slash.
[‘Skill: Use ‘Storm Slash’.]
Wow!-!
Suho literally became a storm..
Two swords crossed and a strong wind blew..
[‘Skill: Learned ‘Dual Swordsmanship Lv.1’.]
It was truly merciless violence..
It was a one-sided hacking by a cruel butcher..
Clap clap clap clap clap.!
[Wow! Innoom-!]
Brockie attempted a counterattack, but it was nothing more than a desperate struggle..
Kwakwakwakkwaang!
Due to Brockie's struggle, the guard posts built by the Hyena Guild collapsed and were destroyed..
[Dare me……!]
And before Brockie had even finished speaking,.
Red light shot out in a straight line from its fiercely opened mouth..
Rakan's Fang, pulled up by the ruler's power.
Suho's hand snatched the sword..
And just like that.
flashing!
struck down.
[Defeated the harsh commander Brockie..]
Kugu Palace!
Finally, the gigantic beast collapsed..
[Your level has risen!]
[Your level has risen!]
“after.”
Suho gets down on the floor.
[Kkkkkk! You have done it! I killed you! This great guy is our Solord.-!]
And it was Ber who flew quickly as if he had been waiting for this moment..
-……oh my god. Does this work? Humans call Brockie?
Ber chuckled and responded to Rakan's Fang's words..
[Didn't you know? The world is ultimately about the law of the jungle. The strong are preyed upon by the stronger. And our Solord will become stronger in the future. Oh, and Little Lord? Can I have some of this??]
Ber licked his lips and pointed to Brockie's body..
At those words, Suho looked at Brockie's body..
[This is a target for which shadow extraction is possible..]
There was black smoke billowing above it..
Lee Chae appeared in Suho’s eyes..
‘This guy can also be extracted?’
Then I can't give it to you because it's a waste..
“Just one bite. Eat the rest later after extracting the shadow..”
[Deposit!]
Wow!
As soon as permission was given, Berr flew away excitedly..
The dead Brockie was a good source of magic power..
[Hehehe. Just one bite.]
Ber's mouth opened evilly..
If you only eat one bite, which part should you eat so that people can say you ate well??
As expected, it was only here.
brain.
[A diet of the fittest. That's something I really like too..]
Ver muttered like that and delved into Brockie's head..
* * *
Suho freed all the people who were tied up..
“I reported it to the Hunter Association, so a rescue team will arrive soon. There are still demonic beasts roaming around the mountain, so don't go anywhere else and just gather here for a moment..”
“Hehehe! thank you! thank you!”
They were shocked by how long they had been held, so they were covered in tears and snot and wept loudly..
[Little Lord, these are all debtors who owe money to the Hyena Guild. I couldn't pay my debt, so I signed a waiver and got arrested..]
“Ber, how do you know that??”
[My skill is predation. I ate Brockie's brain and stole some of his memories..]
“They do everything..”
[Kehem. I am a useful species in many ways..]
It was Ver who was proud, with both hands on his hips..
[Oh, by the way. When I looked into Brockie's abilities, I found that there was no such thing as the power to create a werewolf by feeding him blood..]
“what? So what do these guys do?…….”
Suho's gaze turned to the werewolves lying dead on the floor..
-I thought that was the strangest thing from the beginning too..
Rakan's fangs opened their mouths..
-The Hyena Clan is just one of the many tribes that followed the Canine Clan. Only the canine clan can create minions by feeding them blood..
“then…….”
-It seems like there's a real canine clan in there besides Brocky..
At those words, Suho and Ber's eyes simultaneously looked at the gate where Brockie came out..
“There is a real boss mob..”
Suho adjusted his sword with a determined look in his eyes..
Then Ber next to me shrugged his shoulders and said.
[It won't be a boss mob..]
“no?”
Suho gives him a puzzled look..
[yes. If Brocky remembers correctly, there will probably be no more fighting..]
Ber had a slightly bitter expression..
[You will find out when you go in..]
* * *
Suho entered the gate.
And I was able to find a small and delicate creature inside..
“This…….”
Suho’s expression hardened..
There, a blood-stained wolf cub was lying helpless..
Scruffy gray fur.
Bandages wrapped roughly.
It was a very small wolf, only about a span in size..
And in front of it…….
The syringes that drew blood were rolling around randomly..
-Brockie, how dare this crazy man!
Rakan's canine trembled with rage when he saw that..
-Could it be that they tied up the descendants of the clan and forcibly drew their blood?!
flinch.
Did you hear his anger?.
A wolf cub tied to a dog collar lifted its head helplessly..
The unfocused eyes stared blankly at the empty space where Suho was standing..
Then he sniffed with his little nose..
a stranger.
The smell of blood on those clothes.
“Kiwoong…….”
One weak cry.
With that, the wolf cub lowered his head again..
There was not even a speck of hope or will to live left in the small body that had lost its strength..
-Brockie, you crazy mongrel.-!
Rakan's fangs were extremely enraged and cursed Brocki, who was already dead..
Ver muttered calmly while reading Brockie's memories..
[Immediately after losing the war against the Army of Shadows, Brockie left the battlefield before anyone else. In fact, he was closer to a deserter than a defeated soldier..]
Brockie's next move was truly base..
[He went into hiding in the Fang Clan's sanctuary, which was considered the safest place, and there he found the Clan's young wolf..]
All the adults had gone to war and the wolf cub was left alone there..
The guy in the memory waggled his tail in joy when Brockie entered the sanctuary..
but.
[When Brockie saw that, an idea occurred to him..]
‘Yes, this is it! Using the blood of this canine clan, you can create as many guardians as you like.!’
‘Let the guardians protect me!’
‘My own army! I am creating a new tribe here that serves only me.!’
‘Are you okay too? Hehehe.’
Brockie smiled vulgarly as he watched the wolf cub wagging its tail at him..
[……Afterwards, the Sanctuary was torn into several pieces and wandered through the dimensional crevices. One day, a hole connected to the earth opened in front of Brockie..]
And found a group of humans.
[At that moment, Brockie, without hesitation, drew the blood of this young wolf and fed it to them..]
Next was something Suho was familiar with..
The guardians that emerged became Brockie's army under the name of the Hyena Guild..
They hunted down the same humans and offered food to Brockie..
For as long as a year.
However, there was one problem here..
That was the reason why Rakan's fangs were angry..
-The guardians' power is not eternal. Ten days at most. After that period, the blood power engraved on the guardians' bodies disappears and they return to their original state. That means in the end……!
“This means that once every ten days, blood was drawn from this guy and fed to the guild members. For as long as a year.”
-Wow! Brockie! Brockie!
Suho picked up the limp wolf cub with one hand..
hilarious.
I was a little surprised that it was lighter than I expected..
[Kkeek? Please take me with you?]
Ber's eyes widened..
This young wolf was a blood relative of the Fang Lord, if not a direct descendant..
[If left alive, he may grow into the second Fang Lord and threaten the Earth again..]
“Well, they say we won before anyway.?”
[that… … Right? hmm.]
Hearing Suho's words, Ber looked intently at the wolf cub in Suho's hands..
Ver nodded as he was writhing around, unable to even make a sound due to so much blood being taken out..
[Do it. There is no need for us to be at odds with each other when aliens from outer space are attacking us..]
Although the war was lost, the surviving children were innocent..
Rather, aren’t you proud of the fact that you have survived until now with this small and light body?.
But Suho didn't necessarily want to take this wolf just for romantic reasons..
‘I somehow feel like it will help me in some way later. furthermore…….’
“If I die here and now, my last memories will be very unhappy, right? I was captured by a man I trusted and had my blood sucked for a whole year..”
Suho said and held the boy in his arms..
“So, let’s give it some food first and then think about it..”
* * *
Suho returned home immediately with a wolf cub..
As for the Hyena Guild and the Gwanaksan field, I reported it to the association, so I decided to pay no attention to it for now..
In any case, civilian survivors will give much more specific testimony than Suho..
More than that, this guy felt like he was going to die today..
“Ber, you say you're a healer, but you can't treat something like this.?”
[A healer's recovery magic can only heal wounds. There's nothing we can do about lack of blood or hunger..]
“Even recovery skills are not omnipotent. Then first of all…….”
Suho turned on the electric heater and placed it in front of the wolf cub..
“Kiing.”
“why? Is it good because it’s warm??”
The wolf cub looked quite embarrassed..
Even though his tail was trembling, he was staring intently at the red light of the electric heater as if he was fascinated..
“Well, you might be seeing fire for the first time in your life..”
Suho left him like that and immediately started making seaweed soup..
Then I cooled it so it wasn't too hot and served it on a small plate..
“Know that you are really having a good day today. This is the recipe my mom used to make for my birthday..”
Suho looked condescending and held out seaweed soup in front of the guy's short snout..
“Try it. They say seaweed soup is good when your blood is low..”
……sniff.
When it smelled the seaweed soup, the wolf cub's tail twitched..
“are you okay. I told you to eat it.”
When Suho forcibly put seaweed soup on the animal's snout, its tongue instinctively fluttered..
licking?
……!
“Oh, I didn't know. Wolves also have a surprised expression just like humans..”
Tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk.
The wolf cub sticks its nose into the plate and begins to lick the seaweed soup..
An unsightly tail with no fur fluttered helplessly..
Rakan's fang, who was silently watching the scene in Ver's hand, muttered solemnly..
-……thanks. In many ways.
He had complicated feelings in many ways..
The reason they ended up like this in the first place was because they lost the war against them..
But even though the war was lost, the surviving children were innocent..
I had to step on the surviving present and stand up to live in the future..
And maybe… … This young wolf may have been the only survivor of his canine clan..
As Ver warned, he was a small lord who would one day grow up and continue the lineage of the canine lords..
To think that the Shadow Lord's successor would lend a helping hand to such a child..
What kind of irony is this?.
“Is it worth eating??”
Suho crouching down and grinning in front of a small wolf cub licking warm soup..
Rakan's Fang, who was watching this, had no choice but to accept the fact that the war was finally over..
-……okay. You won. We will entrust all our new soldiers to you..
The moment he sighs softly.
The will of the great king of beasts, the canine lord Rakan, resides in Suho..
ring.
