n“Are you serious? Kim Woo-jin coughed up blood and collapsed?”

nSam Oliver nervously answered the asian man’s question.

n“Obviously, it wasn’t my fault.”

n“This is such a headache. I have to get the information from him somehow…”

nIt was then.

nA wolf appeared in front of them.

nThe wolf was quite large as it was over 2 meters in length.

nWhen it discovered Sam Oliver and the asian man, it stopped.

n

n

nGrrr!

nIt bared its fangs at them.

nIt’s teeth were rather startling as they were reminiscent of a shark’s teeth.

nThis was a Sawtooth wolf.

nIt’s appearance made the body of the asian man freeze. He was only a torture expert who was only level 14 at best.

nBut Sam Oliver was different.

nAs soon as he saw the Sawtooth Wolf reveal its teeth, he threw a spear in his hands at it.

nPuchuk!

nThe spear shattered the head of the wolf before flying out of its tailbone.

n“すげぇ(Awesome)”

nThe asian man shouted in Japanese without realizing it.

n‘Japanese?’

nSam Oliver frowned slightly at the appearance of the unexpected language.

nThe asian man shut his mouth quickly as if realising his mistake.

nThe atmosphere quickly became awkward.

n“…let’s go quickly.”

nAfterwards, Sam Oliver recovered his spear before speaking to the asian man.

nAs he heard this, the asian man nodded silently.

nHowever, the awkward atmosphere stayed around them without any signs of disappearing.

nIt was only when they arrived back at the main camp that the awkward atmosphere finally disappeared.

n‘Ah.’

n‘Ah.’

nIt wasn’t possible for the awkward atmosphere to stay when they were faced with 10 dead bodies.

n…

nIn reality, the Messiah Guild was an untouchable area.

nA topic so sacred that even the world’s most feared terrorist would not dare to lay their hands on the Messiah Guild.

nSo the best place for those who had animosity and dissatisfaction toward the Messiah Guild were dungeons.

nOne of the missions of the Hunting Dog, Kim Woo-jin, was to deal with situations like those.

nOf course, in the course of that, sometimes there would be some unexpected situations.

nFor example; if you had to survive against 98 players with 2 or less players due to an unexpected betrayal.

n‘Since I already got rid of 10 people, only 29 remain.’

nFor Kim Woo-jin who had survived such an incident, this was pitiful.

nMoreover, this situation was not unexpected.

n‘They hunted a lot more than I expected.’

nIf there was anything that Kim Woo-jin didn’t expect, it was that the members of the Frontier Guild and the others who had entered the dungeon to kill him, had killed quite a large number of monsters.

nIt was a good thing for Kim Woo-jin.

n‘I can finish much faster than I expected.’

nKim Woo-jin, who stood in front of the corpses had this thought before immediately sacrificing them to summon skeletons.

nIt was an Orc that became the first offering to summon a skeleton, followed by a Goblin.

nThe familiar Orc and Goblin Skeleton Soldiers had glistening eyes as they awaited their battle instructions.

nAt the same time, Kim Woo-jin noticed the body of a Sawtooth Wolf.

n‘I’m finally getting a new type of skeleton.’

nSkeleton Soldiers could be made out of whatever Kim Woo-jin hunted.

nHowever, not everything could be sacrificed.

nThere were size and race limits. (TL: aren’t the orcs like…huge?)

nIn simpler terms, only monsters that could walk bipedally like humans could be sacrificed.

nWerewolves could be used as a sacrifice, but normal wolves couldn’t be used.1

nCreating Sawtooth Wolf Skeleton Soldier.

nThe way to solve this limitation was for the skill to reach the transcendent rank.

nThe moment the skill reached the EX rank, he became able to make anything into a Skeleton Soldier.

nOf course, for him to sacrifice a huge monster to create a Skeleton Soldier, it required an enormous amount of Magic Power and to maintain it required a similarly large amount of Magic Power.

nEven if it was a boss monster, there was no reason to turn it into a Skeleton Soldier if you considered the cost.

n‘Now I can use Pharaoh’s Power properly.’

nThe result of the combination of the transcendent ranked Skeleton Soldier skill and the Pharaoh’s Power skill was the King of the Undead.

nThis ability was now being demonstrated by Kim Woo-jin.

nIn an instant, a group of thirty skeletons had appeared before Kim Woo-jin.

nLooking at his new group of soldiers on four legs instead of two, Kim Woo-jin pulled out the Grim Reaper’s mask from his inventory.

n‘Let’s get this over with quickly’

nThe hunt had officially started.

n…

n“How did this happen?”

n“Wasn’t it over?”

n“Who did it? Was it Kim Woo-jin?”

nAs they looked at the 10 bodies before them, the other 29 players discussed among themselves.

nThe conversation didn’t show any signs of stopping.

n“So what should we do?”

n“We have to catch him.”

n“Do you even know where he is?”

n“That…”

nIt was only because he couldn’t answer a question that silence fell.

nEventually, as the conversation had ended, they all turned their eyes to Sam Oliver who was the leader of the operation.

nBut Sam Oliver was just as confused.

n‘How did this happen?’

nNo, Sam Oliver was more confused than all the rest.

n‘How did 10 people…’

nThe 10 who died weren’t 10 ordinary players, but talents that were recognized by the Frontier Guild.

nEven Sam Oliver himself couldn’t guarantee his chances of fleeing much less winning in front of these 10 players.

nHowever, Kim Woo-jin had managed to kill these 10.

nThe scene was also quite neat with no signs of a great struggle.

n‘He’s dangerous.’

nHe made the best possible choice after repeated warnings from his instincts.

nGather everyone together so they could take care of each other.

n“Sam, I think you need to give some orders to everyone,”

nThen under the reminder from his subordinate, Sam Oliver did not hesitate to pull an item out of his inventory.

nIt was Percival’s Spear, an item that Sam Olver only used in extremely dangerous situations.

n“Everyone, prepare for battle. Be extremely careful.”

nIt was at that moment.

n“Something is coming!”

nEveryone turned once they heard the yell.

nThen thirty creatures entered their sights.

n“Skeletons?”

n“Skeletons!”

nWhen the Skeleton Soldiers arrived, the players became nervous and the atmosphere became a mess.

nIn any case they didn’t have to think about anything else when faced with something that had obvious hostility toward them.

nSam Oliver also didn’t worry too much any more.

n“Prepare for battle!”

nFrom now on, all he had to focus on was crushing all the enemies that came.

n“Tanks at the front! Healers in the middle! Mages you attack from the back! End this battle as soon as possible”

nThat was why Sam Oliver gave the other players their orders.

nHeavily armored men formed a line at the front and behind them were healers that were also covered in some armor. At the back of them all were the mages who were preparing to cast their spells.

nAnd at the forefront, stood Sam Oliver.

nWhile everyone was staring at the skeletons ahead of them, they completely forgot the 10 bodies behind them.

nPung!

nSo naturally, when the bodies exploded, there was no way they could react properly to it.

n“Kuk!”

n“Ack!”

nScreams came from the back.

nClang!

nAnd from the front the sounds of weapons making contact with each could be heard.

nAt that moment, everyone had a scary intuition.

n‘It’s over.’

nThey couldn’t win this battle.

nOnly Sam Oliver had a different idea.

nHe was completely confident that they would win this battle even if there were a couple sacrifices.

n‘With the Spear of Percival these skeletons are nothing!’

n

n

nThe spear in his hands had him convinced.

nAnd Percival’s Spear indeed had what it took to give him that confidence.

nThat was the reason.

n“You want to go against the skeletons?”

nKim Woo-jin was the one standing in front of Sam Oliver, not a skeleton.

n(Note:

nThis thing about the requirements for skeletons feels like it was conjured up by the author during this chapter and wasn’t planned before because KWJ had many opportunities to get other bipedal monsters. For example the Black Werewolves from Lee Jin-ah’s test or from the Horned Fox’s Dungeon. It was really confusing for me and made me wonder if I’d read wrongly.

nEven if there is a limit set so that if he reaches his max number of summons he can’t swap one for another or something, he was still quite capable of saving a slot for another bipedal summon, especially when you consider the fact that he almost always knows what to find in the dungeons.

n…welp, that’s been another long rant by Seven…I really gotta learn to stop (|||_~) )
