nChapter 131: Chapter 131

n“Cough!”

nYou’ve sustained fatal damage.

nPassive Skill open.

nYou’re transforming into Berserker.

nLimit maximized!

n

n

nYou will inflict additional damage due to rage.

nRoarrrrrrrrr!

n“…!””

nWang Wei stared at Ho Sung Lee in shock.

nHo Sung Lee’s hair grew long, and its color turned red.

nHo Sung Lee’s eyes were filled with blood, and his teeth grew into fangs.

nOn top of that, his muscles enlarged, and his blood vessels stuck out.

nHis magic and stamina power increased exponentially.

nAfter that, rocks and dirt started levitating around Ho Sung Lee.

nHo Sung Lee wobbled up to his feet while clenching down his teeth and opened his mouth.

n

n

n“Roarrrrrrrrr!”

n“Ugh!”

nWang Wei covered his eyes and stepped back.

nThe reason for that was because the strong energy radiated from his body.

n“What’s that…!?”

nHo Sung Lee took out the Death Knight Sword from his stomach.

nAnd then.

nDashhhhhh!

nHo Sung Lee ran toward Wang Wei at high speed.

nA very high speed.

n

n

nHe also waved his Death Knight Sword around, which started flaming up.

nDeath Knight Sword, ‘Hell Fire’ activation rate will remain at 10%.

nThe Death Knight Sword clashed with Wang Wei’s sword.

nSlashhhhhh!

nThe strong spark and explosion pushed Wang Wei backward.

n“Ugh!”

nWang Wei stared at Ho Sung Lee with widened eyes.

nNo, he tried to stare at him.

nHowever, due to the smoke and spark of the Hell Fire, he was unable to keep his eyes open.

nBut Ho Sung Lee’s Death Knight Sword still managed to get through the smoke and spark toward his face.

n

n

n“Argh!”

nWang Wei breathed sharply as he blocked the Death Knight Sword with his sword.

nClangggggg!

nThe loud clanging sound caused the Hell Fire to be activated once more.

nBanggg!

nThere was nothing special about the Hell Fire damage, but the problem was that the spark kept getting in the way of his view.

n“How did he get so strong?”

nWang Wei created a safe distance between him and Ho Sung Lee.

nHowever, Ho Sung Lee didn’t let that happen.

nThe Death Knight Sword gave off a strong aura that turned into sparks as he charged toward Wang Wei.

n

n

n“Stop fooling around…!”

nWang Wei bit down on his lower lip and used all his power at once.

nThe attack that he used on the devils.

nVision Torpedo Charm

nWang Wei’s sword created a tornado.

nAs a result, the sparks and smoke disappeared in no time, allowing him to see Ho Sung Lee.

n‘It’s all over you, bastard!’

nWhen Wang Wei smiled out of relief.

nHo Sung Lee’s Death Knight Sword flew over toward his head and struck down on the Vision Torpedo Charm.

nBoommmmmmmmm!

nA strong explosion broke out.

nIt was so strong that it shook the inside of the tower.

nThe red smoke spread around them and turned into thick smoke.

nWang Wei waved his arms around to look through the smoke.

n‘He’s probably dead, right?’

nHe was certain that that was the case.

nAs soon as the smoke subsided.

n“Roar…!”

nIt sounded like the cry of a beast.

n“No way…!”

nHo Sung Lee broke through the smoke and ran toward Wang Wei.

nThe fiery Death Knight Sword in his hands was targeting Wang Wei’s head.

nThe attack was strong, but Wang Wei was no ordinary opponent.

nWang Wei dodged the sword and slashed Ho Sung Lee’s waist with his sword.

nBut.

n“…!?”

nThe wound immediately healed itself.

nAnd although Ho Sung Lee lost his balance due to the strike, he still ran toward Wang Wei and waved his sword once more.

nThe attack was not simple by any means.

nThe fiery Death Knight Sword targeted Wang Wei’s pressure point.

nIn other words, his neck.

nThe flame flew into the air and charged toward Wang Wei’s neck.

nAs soon as Wang Wei lifted his shoulder by reflex.

nThuddddddddd!

nA loud noise could be heard.

nHo Sung Lee’s body rose into the air and flew 40 meters away before plopping onto the floor.

nThud!

nHo Sung Lee let go of his Death Knight Sword and rolled on the floor.

nWang Wei swallowed his saliva and looked beside him.

nHe saw three men wearing black robes.

nThey were the Heukrangdae.

nAnd within their gaze contained reproach.

n“Don’t look at me like that, or I’ll dig out your eyeballs,” Wang Wei remarked with annoyance and rage.

nAt that moment, Ho Sung Lee got up like a zombie and picked up the Death Knight Sword from the ground.

n“Roarrr…”

nHo Sung Lee breathed out grey smoke from his mouth, and the way his eyes had blood in them reminded him of the devils.

nHeukrangdae’s attack caused a temporary lull during the battle.

n“I should finish off that son of a b*tch.”

nBut Heukrangdae stood in front of Wang Wei, who was about to attack Ho Sung Lee again.

n“If you continue to disobey us, we’ll have no other choice.”

nWang Wei laughed.

n“You’ll have no other choice but to do what?”

n“Sir, the commands must be followed. Keep in mind that this is a way of going against our leader.”

nWang Wei showed an annoyed look on his face

nAt that moment, Ho Sung Lee charged toward Wang Wei and Heukrangdae.

nBut the movements of Ho Sung Lee, who was charging like a beast, suddenly started slowing down.

nHis red hair started to become brown again, and it grew short.

nEven his bloody eyes came back to normal, and his teeth were sharp no more.

nWhat followed was Ho Sung Lee getting down on his knees and losing consciousness.

nPlop-

nOnce Ho Sung Lee fell on the ground, he didn’t show any movements.

nWang Wei and Heukrangdae watched in the meantime.

nA moment later.

n“Let’s go back, Sir,” Heukrangdae urged.

n“… Is he going to die?”

nWang Wei took turns looking at Ho Sung Lee and Bowl.

n“Sir, you must return to the assembly.”

n“You must go back.”

n“You must go back.”

nWang Wei clicked his tongue. He knitted his brows and glared at Heukrangdae.

n“Stop scolding me. I get the point, okay? I’m going!”

nHe lashed out. He looked at Ho Sung Lee one more time and then smirked.

n“If you’re still alive, consider yourself lucky. But then again, if another announcement is made, we’ll see each other again soon.”

nWang Wei laughed and turned around.

nHeukrangdae followed behind him in silence.

n***

n“Mmm…”

nHo Sung Lee wriggled and groaned, and once he regained some consciousness, he felt the pain.

n“Ugh!”

nDespite the excruciating pain, he still looked for Bowl.

nHe then spotted Bowl laying on the ground in front of him.

n“Huh? B-Bowl…! Are you okay? Cough!”

nHo Sung Lee asked while coughing.

n“Worry about yourself, son of a b*tch.”

nHo Sung Lee looked at Bowl and smirked.

n“Sigh… you bastard. You’re okay, haha…”

nHo Sung Lee grimaced due to the pain, but he still laughed.

n“What happened? Did I beat that Samchunkyo when I became a Berserker?”

n“No, Heukrangdae showed up and took him away.”

n“Oh… I see. Wait. But you looked like you were passed out. How did you see that? I didn’t.”

n“That wasn’t me.”

n“What…”

n“The one that got hit was my other ego. I had already run far away.”

nHo Sung Lee glared and stared at Bowl.

n“You sneaky skull. After all I did to try to save you… Ugh!”

n“I never asked you to do that though.”

nHo Sung Lee was about to say something, but he then grabbed his stomach and bent forward.

n“Jeez… It didn’t hurt this much when I became a Berserker last time.”

n“Do you have a potion?”

n“I do, but it’s Min Sung’s, so I can’t just take it.”

n“We should hurry back. We’re late again. Take the potion. I’m sure he’ll understand.”

n“R-right?”

n“Yeah. Take it!”

nBowl urged him.

nHo Sung Lee opened the item window and took out the potion to drink.

nGulp, gulp, gulp…!

nHe chugged the potion in one go.

nAnd the effects came right away.

nA blue particle appeared and flew around Ho Sung Lee’s skin before being absorbed slowly.

nHo Sung Lee’s pain subsided, and his heavy body began to feel lighter.

nHe was worried since it was an expensive potion, but just like Bowl said, it was more important to treat himself and get back to Min Sung Kang first.

nHe also had to report to him about Wang Wei.

n“Jeez! Ugh!”

nHo Sung Lee grabbed his back like an old man and groaned.

n***

nSamchunkyo didn’t try to control Korea’s Central Insitute.

nThere were two reasons for that.

nThe Korean hunters decided not to eat the item, and Korea wasn’t really acknowledged by the world in the first place.

nAs a result, the Central Insitute hunters couldn’t enter the assembly dominated by Samchunkyo, and they had no reason or skill to go into the tower.

nFor that reason, Ji Yoo Kim ordered her hunters to return to Korea for the time being.

nIt was clear that Min Sung Kang and China were going to face off from now on.

nShe knew that a powerful country like China would never let Min Sung Kang monopolize the Black Tower.

nMeanwhile, there was nothing the Central Institue could do.

nThe hunters had no choice but to go back to Korea.

nThe Korean citizens would be happy about it, but from Ji Yoo Kim’s standpoint, it was not to be celebrated.

nWithout Min Sung Kang, they were nothing but the weakest hunters in the world.

nIn a place a little further out from the assembly.

nJi Yoo Kim, who was left by herself, clenched onto her clothes with a stiff look on her face.

nAll that had happened in the end was one hunter dying because he couldn’t take the sedative.

nAnd that was her fault.

nJi Yoo Kim covered her face in pain.

nMin Sung Kang.

nHe was right.

n“Don’t do anything.”

n“Just stay alive.”

nThose words pained her heart.

nIn the end, nothing had changed.

nBy striving to find the pill, all she did was provoke Samchunkyo.

nAfter sending all the Korean hunters back to Korea, Ji Yoo Kim finally let out her tears that she had been holding in.

nShe had been holding it in for a long time.
