Psh!

A brilliant sword pierced the middle of a zombie’s forehead.

Zombies are falling down like cats and dogs.

“Heuok, huk!”

Yujun breathed heavily.

After dealing with the last zombie, he flopped down on the ground.

“Oh, I’m dying.”

He kept moving without a break, and his heart seemed to be on fire.

He managed to hold on without falling to the last minute.

This is the first time in five years he learned that a person can move so intensely.

He was out of breath right now, but he didn’t die in the end.

It didn’t fall down again.

His patience is not good.

It was just the Composure effect.

It made Yujun, a stranger to fighting, a respectable fighter.

‘This will also be replaced as an achievement.’

It’s not like he’s dealing with monsters that are left behind us.

Yujun sat down and rested for a long time.

The rotting smell of zombies lingers all around, but his nose is already paralyzed.

Those things didn’t bother him much.

It took his breath away to some extent.

Only then did Yujun shake off his arms and raise himself.

‘Let’s get going.’

[Move out of the cemetery and to the center of the forest.]

[Defeat the ruler of the forest, ‘Werewolf.’ 0/1.]

The system message to go to the forest was floating beside him, not disappearing.

It didn’t seem to disappear until it achieved its purpose.

The center of the forest is not far away.

There was no fear of getting lost.

All he had to do was walk in the direction the arrow was pointing.

His legs trembled as he began to walk.

There was nothing he could do about this.

He ran incessantly and faced over a hundred zombies and skeletons.

It would be strange if he’s fine.

Although he became a player and wore legendary items, he did not become a complete superman.

Wouldn’t he be in the ranks of supermen only if he gets to at least level 100?

‘But this is fine.’

He was a little worried about not knowing exactly how powerful the Werewolf was.

“Huu…”

Super Novice set.

He trusts these items.

Didn’t it easily withstand the zombies’ strong biting attacks?

Thanks to the Super Novice set, he hasn’t been hurt at all.

He didn’t have to be scared of something he hasn’t even met yet.

‘At least you’ve got level one to deal with.’

It was not long before Yujun found a vacant area without trees or bushes.

‘Where’s the Werewolf?’

The direction the arrow points to was right at this spot.

I’m sure the Werewolf is here.

It was invisible to the naked eye.

He had an uneasy foreboding.

He can’t see any enemies.

Don’t tell me…

Seeing a huge shadow on the floor, Yujun threw his body forward.

Boom! Bwam!

The Werewolf landed where he was.

Its sharp claws clipped through the air.

Yujun was slightly surprised but didn’t reveal it.

He took a quick look at the Werewolf.

‘It’s not a usual one? That’s a relief.’

A werewolf’s level is about 55.

Usually, when it reaches level 40, it was a monster that gathered together to hunt parties.

Although just one, its strength is stronger than monsters of the same level.

In short, a nonstandard monster a beginner can never deal with.

Still, it was a relief this Werewolf was not the same.

‘Is it possible?’

It was hard to tell exactly.

He has never faced a werewolf at such a low level.

This is not a game but a reality.

It was unclear whether he could deal with this Werewolf like in the game.

‘I’m wearing four legendary gear. There’s a big level difference, but…’

He had no choice now anyway.

The Werewolf drooled, looking at him.

Yujun’s sword swung diagonally.

The moment the sword touches the Werewolf’s claws.

Swoosh!

It neatly dug deep into the Werewolf’s arms as well as its claws.

“Grawr!”

A scream came through the mouth of the Werewolf.

His roar has the effect of slightly stiffening the body against a low level opponent.

Nevertheless, Yujun was fine.

This time again, it was the effect of Composure (S).

An opening appeared in the Werewolf.

Because it used mana while roaring.

At that moment, Yujun attacked.

The sword cut deeply through the sides of the Werewolf.

Originally he aimed for the chest, but it was half-response by the Werewolf with amazing reflexes.

However, it’s hard to say there was no damage done.

Red blood burst from the side of the Werewolf.

“Grawr!”

Despite the deep wound, the Werewolf looked as if it had not lost its fighting spirit.

Its thigh muscles swolled up.

At the same time, the Werewolf shot forward.

Very nimble.

The speed at which its body is hard for Yujun to follow.

Even before responding, the Werewolf hit Yujun’s chest with its healthy arm.

Clank!

The sound of hammering iron echoed through the open space in the forest.

“Grawr…!”

It was the Werewolf’s side and its expression that was distorted.

Its front paws failed to penetrate Yujun’s Super Novice set.

The sharp claws were crushed.

The front paws were also broken beyond recognition.

Yujun, on the other hand, was only slightly shocked.

Of course there’s no scar.

‘Is this the power of legendary items?’

Even in an urgent situation, Yujun was impressed.

‘This is definitely…’

A werewolf’s speed is fast, but it’s meaningless if the attack doesn’t work.

‘I win.’

He doesn’t think he can lose to this Werewolf.

Yujun moved first.

It avoided the sword that came to the front even when it was injured.

‘Fast. I can’t do it at speed.’

The agility was overwhelmingly high.

No, it would be the same for any ability.

It was fortunate that it couldn’t last long because it was seriously injured.

‘Let’s wait.’

It is a combat method that was often used in games.

After charging a lot, Yujun was always ahead in offense and defense.

Things haven’t changed much even now.

‘Focus. I need to see its feet.’

The Werewolf hovered around for a chance.

However, it couldn’t rush in as quickly as it did like before.

“Grawr…”

Its’ breath became rugged as time went by.

It was because it failed to stop the wound properly.

Tadak!

It judged that any further delay would be dangerous.

It bent back and rushed at a rapid pace.

He was watching closely, but he missed the move momentarily.

It came right in front of him, and was seen opening his teeth.

Yujun hurriedly raised his arm after finding out what it was after.

The Werewolf, who was about to devour his head, bit the arm of his armor.

Clank! Clack.

The teeth have a pretty solid shape.

It looked fine even though he bit the metal on his arm as hard as it could.

The problem is that the Werewolf’s level of biting didn’t hurt at all.

Taking the opportunity, Yujun stabbed the sword in the head of the Werewolf.

Psh!

The Werewolf’s eyes flashed.

As soon as the sword dug into the middle of the Werewolf’s forehead, its burning eyes went out like a candle.

“Huu…”

Yujun breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the giant body fall to the ground.

‘It was dangerous.’

Werewolves, unlike zombies and skeletons, are a very quick-moving and full-feeling opponent.

It was not easy for Yujun, who had just opened his eyes to battle.

If it wasn’t for the Super Novice defense, it would have been him, not the Werewolf, lying on the floor.

‘Oh, there was a title.’

Legendary Item Collector title also played a part.

The title increases the effect of the four legendary items worn.

The effect was beyond description.

That was the secret of a level 1 defeating a level 40 werewolf.

“Well, I guess it wasn’t as bad as I thought.’

It was the same when dealing with zombies, as he didn’t make any big mistake while fighting the Werewolf.

It was then.

[Congratulations. You passed Hell difficulty tutorial safely. Enter the portal in front of you and the tutorial will end.]

The moment he saw the message, his legs relaxed and sank to the floor.

‘I really did it.’

Now he realizes it.

Wolves, zombies, skeleton.

Finally, he fought against a werewolf.

It’s all happened in just a few hours.

Survived and won.

It was an incredible achievement to say that a beginner had done it.

A proud smile appeared on his face.

‘One thing I’m sorry about is…It means I can’t use the Super Novice set anymore.’

If he finishes the tutorial and gets rewarded, he’ll definitely level up.

Then he will be stopped by the wearing level restriction.

Because he could only wear the Super Novice set below level 5.

In other words, the value of the legendary items worn now falls in a moment.

It’s an item that only takes up space in the inventory.

‘But don’t throw it away because it’s a waste.’

Yujun comforted his appetite and approached the portal.

He stopped moving towards the portal.

He had a flash in my mind.

‘There’s a golden key left. Then where should I use this?’

The golden key in his inventory.

A quest item obtained by digging the tombstones in Zone 2’s cemetery.

‘It’s this just to throw this away?’

No one knows because no one had successfully passed Hell difficulty Zone 2.

The system didn’t tell him either.

‘Just in case, should I look around to see if there’s a place to use the key.’

The decision was not made because it meant taking off his Super Novice set.

No.

‘Well. Absolutely not.’

Yujun’s game career is never in vain.

His instincts signaled.

There’s a place for the golden key.

The golden key will not be treated as an item for no reason.

Only items can go in the inventory.

‘Well, there’s no reason not to try.’

There is nothing wrong with spending more time here.

Yujun believed in his own senses and began to explore the surrounding area.

His whole body ached here and there.

He forced himself to walk and endure the pain while stabbing every nook and cranny with his sword.

The arrow that the system used to mark has been long gone.

It was time for rational reasoning.

‘There’s nothing here in the open space…Even if we dig up the ground, there won’t be anything.’

Then the place where he got the golden key.

Return to the cemetery.

It was quick to make a decision.

After walking for about 20 minutes, he could see the cemetery.

Scattered zombies and powdery traces of skeletons.

Mausoleum and tombstones in disarray.

He scoured the cemetery, but he couldn’t find anything.

Then he saw the tombstones that were not broken yet.

“Shall we break them all down?’

Yujun boldly kicked the tombstones one by one and began to break them down.

Boom! Boom!

It may seem ignorant, but he should try it.

The fruit of his labor was quickly revealed.

The last tombstone.

In the pit, there was a step downward.

It wasn’t there originally.

The moment the last tombstone was destroyed, the stairs suddenly came into shape.

‘It’s really there, isn’t it?’

Perhaps it was set that the staircase would be revealed once all the tombstones were destroyed or disappeared.

He’d be the first one to find it.

It is natural since no one passed Zone 2 in the first place.

Yujun grinned and went down the stairs.
