31The second word overturns the game board (Episode 185)
The deeper you delve into the world of eternity, the more you can't help but think about effort and talent..
The consensus among players was that no matter how hard they tried, it would be nearly impossible to catch up to the level of a character with superior innate talent..
Innate talents that sometimes appear when creating a character.
Innate talent is literally an ability that a character has from birth, different from others..
“No, why have I never shown any innate talent??”
“Everyone else is the same. This is my first time seeing this too..”
In a way, the most important thing in the eternal world was the beginning..
If you have the ability to influence growth in the early stages, the snowball will roll bigger and bigger until the gap becomes impossible to catch up in the later stages..
“I came out!”
“Snowman! what? What?”
Those words that ignited fire in the heart of a young Kangseol.
Ryan Kuros.
“Innate talent... It came out.”
“where… oh my god….”
“Look here! Snowman picked a really amazing guy.!”
Now that Kang Seol, who had already shown some prominence in character development, was given a weapon like this, everyone was looking forward to how far that growth would continue..
However, something happened that greatly exceeded everyone's expectations..
- I don't think I'm suited for this job. Wow…
“Again?”
“I know….”
Adding effort to talent did not mean becoming a legend. Lian Kuros was not interested in the adventurer profession itself..
Perhaps, this could be called aptitude..
- I want to go back to my family... Since I've earned enough, I'm planting a small field near my house.….
Lian Kuros was born with great natural talent that can be counted on one's fingers..
It was a talent that seemed to have been destined for his life..
Tell him to live as an adventurer.
However, he suffered throughout his adventure..
- This time Visien died again... Not anymore… It's painful. I'm going back... I want to go back. Let's cultivate a field, what would be better? grape? No, I think pumpkin would be fine too..
“…….”
Snowfall, who was watching, eventually made a choice..
“Just kidding?”
“…no.”
“How difficult is innate talent to acquire! give it up?”
“but….”
Kangseol said while looking at Lian, who was cowering with her head down on the game board..
“You're suffering. You want to go back to your family..”
“…You care what the horse says?”
“I don't know I'm just like that.”
“under… that's interesting. Well, figure it out. Anyway, in that state, there's a high chance that you'll end up dead before you even get past the halfway point..”
Snowfall's decision came as a shock to others..
A player who decides what he wants to say..
While everyone was dumbfounded by the unprecedented action, Kang Seol made a choice..
The secluded countryside of Adeline, originally the home of the Lian family. He contracted a piece of land close to his house from the landowner who occupied the area. As per Rihanna’s usual wish.
“rian.”
[Would you like to give up the adventure of Lian Kuros??]
1. Yes.
2. no.
“Find happiness with your family.”
[Adventurer Lian Kuros will now create his own destiny..]
[Although his heart-pounding adventure is over, his life continues..]
“It was fun while we were together.”
That was the end of Rian and Kang Seol’s meeting..

[The secret of the basement is revealed.]
[Compensation is set.]
[A linked adventure continues.]
[All adventures must be completed to obtain rewards.]
[Start your next adventure.]
[The twenty-fourth adventure begins.]
[Adventure 24. Secret of the Basement]
Adventure 24. ‘Secret of the Basement’’
Finally, the secret of the Gatif family is revealed.
Here in the basement, the true nature of their terrible evil is revealed in detail..
The person who seems to be the culprit behind all this is trying to silence this..
must resist.
Objective: Defeat Jerry the Merchant.
This adventure is a sudden adventure.
Current remaining time: approximately 3 days」
The unexpected adventure that started suddenly entered the second chapter as arbitrarily as it had appeared..
Kang Seol looked at the cat Su-in with his mysterious Seon-ji eyes..
[Jerry the merchant]
Rank: Hero
estimated level : 30~32
Jerry, a businessman, sells anything that can make money. She was born with nothing to hold, but now she's living her life.
Her secrets are as strong as alcohol.
Having grown up selling weapons, slaves, and children, she found products that were more efficient than those..
A product called the shadow of another person.
Basic abilities: [Acrobatic 3], [Dagger 4], [Sudden Kill 1], [Stranglehold 5], [Coin Toss 2], [Shadow Summon 2], [Emergency Replacement 2]
Special ability: [Indiscriminate hacking 1]
Snowfall's complexion hardened..
‘Now I can no longer believe that it is a dangerous adventure..’
As he expected, Jerry, the merchant who could be said to be the final destination of the adventure, was not that powerful..
“Are you scared now? Then tell me now. I will look after your vital points..”
“…That sucks..”
“…what?”
He thought that this seething anger was a waste..
If my opponent had been a little stronger, I could have handled all this anger..
Kang Seol laughed bitterly, as if he were angry at a child..
“too… You're weak.”
At those words, businessman Jerry opened his eyes wide..
“That means you are confident! ah… It did. They say you too are a shadow summoner?”
“…….”
“So you must be my junior? From now on, I will tell you how to deal with shadows from the perspective of a senior. release the shadow!”
Cheolkeong-!
Jerry's subordinate suddenly appeared and cast a spell, and part of the iron cage opened..
“The shadow... This is how you handle it. I'll give you a grand welcome..”
The word junior.
It was a long time since I heard snowfall..
- Snowman, you know what? we have two ways.
- two… road.
- On one side is a well-worn path that lords over them to bring out the full power of the shadows. On the other side, no one has gone yet... It's a rough path trying to coexist with the shadows. Which one are you….
Mirei helped him realize the season..
Mirei's words suddenly came to mind when faced with Jerry, who was the opposite of her..
Snowfall frowned, as if she was truly displeased. Today was a day where I had to think of so many different people..
But when the snowfall was about to cover the shadow, Ur stopped it..
- wait.
‘…what? why?’
- If you step forward, the work will be over quickly. That cat's head and body will be separated with its tongue hanging out. But haven't you always acted like that??
‘…what does that mean?’
Ur explained calmly..
- Just be quiet and believe me just this once. This body is the teacher of all people and the lord of magic..
Among Ur's talents, he was a legendary teacher. But what kind of ability does it have??
- If you don't follow my instructions, your knights will be blocked by a frustrating wall and will not be able to grow..
Actually, what Ur said was not wrong..
After acquiring the Night Raven, Kang Seol regarded Karen and Karuna as companions rather than summons..
As a result, I was not paying attention to their growth at the same time..
‘No, you didn't believe it?’
Because Snowfall, who became a night crow, was stronger than them. What Ur pointed out was Kang Seol’s way of thinking..
Kang Seol stopped trying to step forward and poured out twin knights from both hands..
“Puss… Is it only 2GB? The junior is cute as expected.”
Regardless of what Jerry said or not, Snowfall looked at the two summoned knights..
[Persisting on Karen: Resonance at work.]
[Sustaining for Karuna: Resonance comes into play.]
The ability of Kiri, who was the owner of the Corpse Hawk Koopa. The twin knights, who received their master's emotions and intentions without filtering, trembled in anger..
“protect your group….”
Sigh…
Snowfall's finger pointed at Jerry.
“Make that woman kneel before me.”
Karen and Karuna said at the same time.
“huh!”
“yes.”
Kyeong-taek Cho and his group stayed close to Kang Seol’s side..
“tongue, brother….”
“Don't leave my side from now on.”
Kwaaaaang-!
The battle began as a huge shadow flew out of the iron bars..
“Inhale-!”
Kaaaaang!
The twin knights quickly divided up their roles..
Karen's role is to protect the party from the flocking shadows..
Suddenly-!
Fuwaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!
And Karuna's role is to deal with Jerry, the culprit of this incident..
What a joke-!
Karen's kick crushed the shadow's face and its eyeballs popped out..
“Kahaha! more! Come more!”
Sigh!
Fuwaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!
Grumbling…
Karen randomly cut and crushed the shadow that was much lower in rank than her..
“…What, what?!”
Jerry took out a sword resembling an awl from his pocket and dealt with Karuna..
Kaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!
Jerry was shocked after receiving Karuna's light attack..
“what….”
A piercing shock.
Karuna's attack was too powerful for Jerry to block..
Karuna's eyes quickly turned bright red..
The Night Knight, who received the emotion of anger, awakened the power and ferocity of the Black Knight within his body..
- anger… do it.
Karuna felt the black knight shouting like that in his heart..
“Don't be fussy!”
Push shoo shoo!
Several daggers were scattered to shake off Karuna..
[Jerry the Jangsagi uses dagger techniques..]
[When daggers damage the same target, 50% additional damage is applied per dagger..]
A strike that is both a trick and a fierce attack at the same time..
Jerry thought he had his chance..
‘It's time! If you aim for the neck while the dagger is being thrown away,….’
However, Karuna's reaction was completely different from what she expected..
Taang… Ta-da-da-dang…
Karuna did not dodge or parry the dagger..
Since it wasn't flying towards a vital spot in the first place, the dagger went right through it..
As a result.
[Hope Predator Devours Shock.]
[Hopeful Predator Is Fasting.]
[Hopeful Predator Digests Every Shock.]
Jerry was stunned as he brandished the awl..
“this… what?”
Whoa whoa-!
The sword Karuna swung completely shattered the awl..
Kwazisig!
Jerry felt his face covered by Karuna's large hands..
“Hmm….”
Quaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!
Karuna grabbed Jerry's face and threw him into the wall..
The wall was dented, leaving a huge mark as if it had been hit by a cannonball..
“Hahahaha!”
The situation as a whole went against Jerry. Not only on Karuna's side, but also on Karen's side..
Grumbling!
Puhwaaaak!
Suddenly! Suddenly!
There were more shadows falling towards Karen than there were shadows attacking the group..
“This, this….”
“Summoned... That's it?”
“What the hell… this situation.”
Gyeong-taek Kyung-taek had met Karen of Kangseol once. So unlike others, he was confident that he would not be surprised by Karen's dancing..
However, I felt like the Karen now was much stronger than the Karen back then..
Watching them indiscriminately slaughter the shadows pouring out to target the group, I felt like the incarnation of a battlefield..
“Kahaha! more! more!”
Snowfall also felt a lot while looking at Karen and Karuna..
‘Was it like this??’
Since I've recently jumped into battle myself, I've always been active only as a companion. It's been a long time since I've seen something like this from the summoner's perspective..
- It's probably because of the power you gained. Because a normal summoner does not fight ahead of the summoned animals. It was obvious that if such a battle continued, it would lead to distorted growth. Then my plan will be disrupted. One, fortunately for you, this is my specialty..
Fuwaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa…
There has been a change in the battlefield.
“ugh… Shut up….”
Jerry's right arm flew off below the elbow. Karuna cut her like a piece of meat..
Jerry also responded with improvisation..
“Come on!”
A shadow flew towards Jerry. And soon replaced her arm.
[jangsachi jerry uses substitution.]
[The life replaced disappears..]
“this….”
Fuwaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!
This time the other arm flew off..
With an expressionless face, Karuna butchered her..
“again!”
Whirling…
The shadow tried to fly to Jerry's side again..
Suddenly-!
“…what?”
“no use.”
“The shadow... I cut myself?”
Bethany caught the flying shadow. Jerry felt afraid of this monster-like knight who had no common sense..
Now that things were like this, Jerry had to resort to a last resort..
“everyone come to me!”
“…….”
“hurry… why….”
Jerry looked at where he had trapped the shadows..
Grumbling…
Some people are burned, others are lying down with their limbs cut off..
Karen was looking at Jerry, knocking down all the released shadows..
Jerry felt as if his heart had stopped..
‘I need to get away!’
At that time, she heard a voice that was like a ray of salvation..
“Hey Jerry! Are you okay??”
The subordinates who had been called in advance were coming down through the escape passage. Jerry rushed past them, shouting urgently..
“Stop it! That guy….”
dddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddd…
One, a dark energy felt behind Jerry's back. She was astonished and looked back at her as she was going up..
A knight who hasn't even taken his sword out of its scabbard yet. But why do I feel this strange power?.
Whioooooooo…
Jerry felt as if time had stopped. That's right, no matter how hard he struggled, he didn't move forward..
“Mom, the body….”
“get sucked in!”
“Yes, Jerry!”
Whioooooooo-!
Ur laughed loudly..
- okay! That's it!
Clap-!
The sword was pulled out of Karuna's scabbard and a slash was struck..
Quaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa-!
A horizontal black line splits everything it touches into two..
“big… Wow!….”
“Buuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu….”
Jerry's minions collapse, spilling out their internal organs..
[Karuna has obtained the clue to the black wave..]
Ur was sad to see that..
- Sheesh, if only the opponent had been a little stronger..
Crash… Clap…
Jerry, terrified, tried to escape the situation by crawling across the floor and up the stairs..
As she was climbing the stairs, both her legs were cut below the knees by Karuna's slash..
“oh… Don't come, you monster.….”
Sigh…
chin-!
Karuna came in front of Snowfall holding her neck..
dump…
He then stretched her to the floor and made her kneel. A shockingly strange energy poured out of Karuna's eyes..
“…Come on, tell your master your sins.”
