nKill The Hero – Chapter 263 – 9 Tails (1)

nTranslator: Seven

nEditor: Ana_Banana

nBefore entering the dungeon, the thing the Saviour Guild had paid the most attention to was safety.

nAfter all, Isaac Ivanov had already experienced accidents when entering dungeons several times.

nIn addition, the 8 Floor dungeon, Nine Tailed Land was clearly a dangerous place even for Isaac Ivanov.

nThat’s why they had formed a team of 999 which completely filled the entry limits, and of course, it was most important that they entered the dungeon with their full power.

nThe Saviour Guild bans the press!

nOnly those involved in the dungeon attack can enter the 10 km radius around the dungeon!

nTherefore, the Saviour Guild blocked the media’s access in order to ensure maximum safety during the dungeon entry process.

n

n

nThe Saviour Guild will broadcast the process live through Youtube!

nInstead, the Saviour Guild decided to reveal the process of their dungeon attack to the world in real time through a live Youtube broadcast.

nThis made it easy for the countless people around the world to watch the Saviour Guild’s entry into the dungeon without any filtering.

n-Get back!

n-Go in!

nBecause of that, they were able to witness the accident that happened without any filtering.

n-Oh my God, what the hell just happened?

n-It wasn’t a terror attack, was it?

n-It was a terror attack! It was a bombing!

nTerror attack.

nIt was the moment that a sudden, shocking terror attack was carried out against the person closest to being the true Saviour, reached the world without any filtering.

nThe situation afterwards could only be described as chaos.

nIt was so shocking that the people watching simply stiffened without being able to properly process exactly what had happened.

nThe time it took for firm reason to return was a day, a literal day.

nThe Saviour Guild was attacked!

nHope is broken!

nThat was how long it took for the media to begin publishing articles, and also for the public to begin reacting.

n-Those damn bastards!

n-No way, were they the same guys who attacked the Messiah Guild?

n-Only those kinds of people could do something like this!

nIn this situation, the first reaction of the public was not fear, but anger.

nJust as cornered mice would no longer be afraid of cats, but would instead bare their teeth, the people of the world began showing anger and aggression instead of fear.

nBecause that was how the people of the world felt.

nLike rats that had been cornered by a cat.

nAnd like rats, there was nothing they could do.

nThe 7th day since Isaac Ivanov entered the dungeon!

nIs it possible to clear an 8 Floor dungeon with just three people?

nUnspeakable helplessness filled the people of the world, and in this helplessness, all people could do was pray.

n-I just pray Isaac Ivanov has peace…

nPray that Isaac Ivanov would at least have a peaceful time in the dungeon.

n…

nIn a quiet, desolate forest.

nKim Woo-jin sat still, wearing the Grim Reaper’s mask.

nIt was an unspeakable serene scene.

n“Fuck!”

nSuddenly, Lee Jin-ah appeared from the distance with a harsh shout.

nLee Jin-ah’s appearance was not good in many ways.

nAlthough he was wearing the Nemean Lion’s skin, he was still covered in injuries, some of which were so serious they even reached down to his bones.

nIf people were to see this, they would wonder how he was still alive and active.

n“Someone’s having a hard time while the other one is just sucking honey.”

nHowever, instead of caring about his wounds, Lee Jin-ah looked at Kim Woo-jin and complained.

n“People outside the dungeon must be worried and praying for you, but you’re just sitting here sucking honey. Dammit…”

nWhile Lee Jin-ah repeatedly complained, Kim Woo-jin simply turned to look at him with the Grim Reaper’s mask on his face.

nKyaha!

nThen, the Skeleton Knights who fought with him appeared.

nA black aura was constantly flowing out of the bones of one of the knights.

nA Death Knight can be summoned.

nThis was proof that it was qualified to become a Death Knight.

n“I finally made one.”

nWith those words, Lee Jin-ah flopped to the ground.

nHe knew that it was useless to complain.

n“It’s definitely hard to fight with just the Skeleton Knights, without the help of the Lich or the other skeletons.”

nThe Skeleton Knights summoned by Kim Woo-jin were definitely strong.

nHowever, no matter how strong they were, it was not easy for a dozen or so individuals, including Lee Jin-ah, to face thousands of monsters.

nMoreover, Lee Jin-ah was the only tank.

n“Rather than that, this is the 12th day since we entered the dungeon, isn’t it?”

nIt had taken 12 days to create one Death Knight.

nOf course, the other Skeleton Knights had accumulated a large amount of kills which made it easier for them to become Death Knights later.

n“It won’t be easy.”

nHowever, the higher they went in the dungeon, the more monsters they would have to face and the more powerful these monsters would be.

nThey were only on the first floor now.

nMaybe it would take longer on the other floors.

n“If we continue at this pace, it will take at least half a year to clear this dungeon.”

nAs Lee Jin-ah said, if they continued attacking the dungeon as they were now, when they finally went out, they would be greeted by the summer sun.

n“You’re right.”

nKim Woo-jin was also aware of that.

nThat was exactly why he was wearing the Grim Reaper’s Mask at that moment.

n“That’s why I’ll also make a move.”

n“What?”

n“I’ve finished my analysis of the surrounding terrain and the distribution of monsters.”

nWhile Lee Jin-ah was working hard to hunt the monsters, Kim Woo-jin used the chance while the monsters’ attention was focused on Lee Jin-ah and the Skeleton Knights to do a complete analysis of the dungeon floor.

nThen he planned accordingly.

n“From now on, the two of us will take turns.”

nThe only thing left was to implement it.

nWith those words, Kim Woo-jin got up from his seat and unsheathed the sword hanging at his waist.

nBalmung demands a sacrifice.

nIt was the moment when Balmung’s greedy fangs were revealed.

n…

nIt was never good to deal with a large number of opponents on your own.

nIn fact, it was better if you didn’t do such a thing at all.

nHowever, players in the dungeons often had to face a large number of opponents in some way or the other, so they received a lot of training and education in preparation for such situations.

nIt was the same for Kim Woo-jin.

nHaving more experience of facing large numbers than anyone else in the world, his advice when facing such situations were as follows.

n“Don’t be too obsessed about the headcount if you are forced to deal with a group larger than a hundred by yourself. Instead, picture your opponents as a large mass. And attack with the intent of cutting off parts of this mass bit by bit.”

nFrom Kim Woo-jin’s perspective, this was advice that stemmed from ample experience.

nBut he usually received the same reaction upon giving said advice.

n“That’s easy to say, can’t anyone say that?”

nKim Woo-jin never gave a long explanation in response to this.

nInstead, he just showed it personally.

nHe practiced the idiom that had been used since ancient times. (TL: I’m guessing ‘actions are better than words’)

nIt was the same now.

nRoaar!

nAn Albino Orc variant.

nA ridiculous monster who stood at an average height of 2.5m with white skin and bloody red eyes.

nFurthermore, unlike regular Orcs, they were so good at group battles, that they could be compared to ants.

nAgainst 3,000 such Orcs, Kim Woo-jin merely put his advice into action.

nPuht!

nHe cut into the body of an Albino Orc in front of him.

nThe exact location of the wound wasn’t too important.

nHe didn’t bother to aim for its throat.

nRoar!

nHe just measured the depth of the injury from the Orc’s screams, and if the depth was at the desired level, he moved on to the next target without hesitation, repeating the same action.

nThen he made a big move.

nRoar!

nRoar!

nBecause of his movements, the 3,000 Albino Orcs were forced to move in order to encircle Kim Woo-jin, who had changed his route, once again.

nDue to this, the injured Orcs were forced to fall behind.

nAnd like peeling the skin of an apple, the surface of the mass of Albino Orcs had been cut away.

nIt was truly a simple method.

nKuk!

nAs the battle continued, the number of Orcs that chased Kim Woo-jin continually decreased.

nAt some point, the number of Orcs that collapsed from exhaustion and injuries surpassed the number that were chasing after him.

nIt was the moment when Kim Woo-jin had proven his words.

nKyaha!

nThen, the Skeleton Knights who had been waiting at a distance appeared.

nThe Skeleton Knights that appeared all had their own weapons.

nFrom Mjolnir, to dual wielding Ganjang and Makya, these knights who held all kinds of legendary weapons in their hands including the Jang Palsamo and the Blue River Sword unleashed the hostility that they had been reigning in upon the fallen Albino Orcs.

nKyaha!

nThe Skeleton Knight Squad had begun their attacks.

nThe Curse of Balmung has been activated.

nMoreover, every Albino Orc that the Skeleton Knights faced were afflicted with the Curse of Balmung without fear.

nThe only thing that these knights could do when faced with such Albino Orcs was carry out a slaughter.

nSuk!

nAs though they were rice being harvested, the Albino Orcs breathed their last.

nAnd as the body count of the massacre rose higher and higher, the dark aura coming out of the various Skeleton Knights became stronger.

nA Death Knight can be summoned.

nAnd eventually, the notification announcing the birth of the third Death Knight was heard. (TL: third in the dungeon)

n‘This is insane.’

nLee Jin-ah, who was watching this scene from a distance couldn’t help but click his tongue.

nSoon after the battle ended, Lee Jin-ah approached Kim Woo-jin.

nThe Death Knight has disappeared.

nYou have acquired the Death Knight’s bones.

nLee Jin-ah spoke to Kim Woo-jin, who put the newly created fourth Death Knight into his inventory.

n“You’re amazing, really amazing.”

nKim Woo-jin’s response was simple.

n“You can do something like this too. Your abilities are good enough for me to admit that.”

nLee Jin-ah, who had not expected the sudden praise, couldn’t help but smile.

n“Kuh, naturally people on the same level can do similar things.”

nHe continued to smile, basking in the words of Kim Woo-jin, who was usually stingy with his praise.

n“Right, this man, Lee Jin-ah, once it’s done properly, while I might not be as good as you, I’m simi-…”

nJust as he was about to finish his words, Lee Jin-ah realised what he was doing.

n‘Oh no.’

nHe was digging his own grave.

n“…actually, I don’t think I could be on the same level. No matter how good I am, such a thing is definitely not possible. Not even a man like me could do it.”

nHe tried to change his words, but Kim Woo-jin tapped Lee Jin-ah’s shoulder as he said.

n“You need to have confidence. The man named Lee Jin-ah can do it. I can guarantee.”

n“No, that, I meant…”

n“I believe in you, Lee Jin-ah the man.”

nLee Jin-ah’s face began to turn sour from Kim Woo-jin’s repeated praise.

nThen his expression became resigned.

nWith this look on his face, Lee Jin-ah said.

n“Rather than that, how many Death Knights are you planning to make? You’re not trying to make a hundred of them are you?”

nKim Woo-jin shook his head.

n“A hundred is a ridiculous number. We’d need to kill 4.4million monsters.”

nLee Jin-ah nodded at Kim Woo-jin’s resolute response.

n“That’s right.”

n“The characteristics of the dungeon and time restraints should be kept in mind. We can’t spend half a year in this dungeon. In any case, that’s a ridiculous number.”

nThe more Kim Woo-jin continued to speak, the more ‘realisation’ began to appear on Lee Jin-ah’s face.

nKim Woo-jin then said.

n“I plan to make approximately thirty of them.”

n“Right, thirty…”

nThen Lee Jin-ah shouted subconsciously.

n“Hey, are you crazy?”

nKim Woo-jin only spoke in a firm tone.

n“There are still twenty-seven to go.”

n“Fuck!” (TL: this is an angrier version of the ‘**’ that he usually uses)

nAs if he couldn’t stand it, Lee Jin-ah spat out a swear.

nIt was then.

nYour level has increased.

n“I’m not doing it.”

nJust as Lee Jin-ah spat out all kinds of complaints, Kim Woo-jin received his 209th level up notification.

nYou have reached level 210. Inventory increased by 42 spaces.

nThe Emissary of the Underworld admires your growth. Your inventory has increased by an additional 42 spaces.

nThe Emissary of the Underworld praises your greatness.

nThe Emissary of the Underworld bestows some power unto you.

nHe received a nice notification, and Kim Woo-jin openly smiled when he received it.

n‘I hope the Death Knight skill’s rank increases.’

nThis smile was filled with expectation.

nHis halo gladly rewarded his anticipation.

nThe rank of the Death Knight skill increased by two steps.

n‘Two steps?’

nA two step increase.

nWhile Kim Woo-jin was surprised by the first gift he received, he heard more notifications.

nThe Emissary of the Underworld praises your achievements.

nThe Emissary of the Underworld sends you a special gift while looking forward to your future accomplishments.

nKim Woo-jin immediately confirmed the new gift from the notification.

nBone Dragon

n– Conditions: Emissary of the Underworld

n– Required Level: Level 220

n– Effect: Summoned Skeleton Soldiers can be combined to create a Dragon

nUpon seeing this skill, Kim Woo-jin couldn’t help but let out a laugh, and upon seeing this, Lee Jin-ah spoke out in anger.

n“Hey, you can still laugh? Huh? What’s so funny?”

nKim Woo-jin answered this question easily.

n“I got lucky.”

nFinally, Kim Woo-jin threw Balmung, which he had been holding in his hand, to Lee Jin-ah.

n“Huh?”

nUpon receiving Balmung, Lee Jin-ah couldn’t help but look at Kim Woo-jin in shock.

nAnd the eyes of Kim Woo-jin that Lee Jin-ah could see, were more serious than ever.

nThis look was proof.

n

n

n‘When we leave this dungeon, Lee Jin-ah will have no opponents other than Lee Se-jun.’

nProof that Kim Woo-jin’s goal in the dungeon wasn’t just the Death Knights.

n‘We will finish all of our preparations in this dungeon.’

nProof that this was the last stage that he’d use to sharpen the sword with which he would kill the hero who claimed he would save the world.

n“It’s time to be the man.”

n“Shiba!”

nAnd so the hunt truly began.
