Chapter 11 - My Inventory is Abnormal

0011 My Inventory is Abnormal

Kim Heeyeon, who stood and saw everything, widened her mouth.

‘Impossible…How did he do it alone?’

She knew well that those who confronted Yujun were not some pushovers.

So how could he defeat them by himself?

Yujun had easily killed three players without much effort.

There are many variables in a fight between players.

Like the many skills that had to be accounted for.

However, the battle ended before any variables even appeared.

In a word, it was one-sided.

‘That guy. What the hell is he?’

Kim Heeyeon breathed a sigh of relief.

It was really lucky that he saved her life.

And not some big bad guy who accidentally found her.

Strong enough to handle three bad players.

‘Without a doubt, I was lucky…’

She got close to Yujun.

“Thank you very much. If you hadn’t saved me in earlier, I’d…”

At Kim Heeyeon’s words, Yujn turned his head and spoke

“Do you have any other company besides those three?”

“I don’t. But, there’s a possibility they’ve contacted their guild.”

“Oh. The Golden Lion or something?”

“Yes.”

“They wouldn’t have contacted them. Unless their loyalty to the guild is extreme, they wouldn’t have given up this precious hidden dungeon. If not, it doesn’t matter.”

“I see. Uh…”

Kim Heeyeon hesitated for a long time.

“May I come with you?”

A word which she had difficulty saying.

Yujun pretended to worry for a moment.

‘It’ll be good. I saved her for her Dungeon Search ability.”

I was actually thinking of getting along with Kim Heeyeon.

‘I’ll just have to keep her out of the boss room.’

He made a decision.

After thinking, Yujun nodded.

“Let’s go together.”

“Really? Thank you!”

Yujun and Kim Heeyeon walked straight to the boss room.

The second path was similar to the other one, but there were less chimeras.

That’s why they couldn’t move forward easily.

On the other hand, Yujun made rapid progress by cutting down the chimeras.

His strength was getting better, and above all, his familiarity with the chimera’s mechanic had a big impact.

And even though he didn’t know himself, Yujun had quite an outstanding fighting talent.

It was never easy for a person who had never fought in his life to adjust to such battles.

He had to remain vigilant against the long sharp claws, which were trying to kill him.

In such a situation, he efficiently aimed only at the weak parts of the chimeras.

It was strictly Yujun’s talent.

‘He wasn’t like this when he fought against the players earlier.’

Kim Heeyeon was also very surprised to see her from behind.

Yujun’s true talent was well revealed when dealing with chimeras.

She’s a second-year player.

Although she was sitting on the third floor because she had no fighting ability, she has seen many talented people in various parties.

There’s a saying that green trees recognize their leaves first.

Exceptional beings quickly become visible and strong.

‘To be honest, I don’t know why he’s still on the third floor…’

Chwak!

There were several scenes in which the chimeras were cut in half by the sword wielded by Yujun.

Kim Heeyeon was impressed.

“That’s what a genius really is.’

Green with envy.

On the other hand, there was also a great deal of respect.

‘That’s who saved my life.’

This is a hidden dungeon.

Ordinary players would have ignored her or killed her in the hope of monopolizing the rewards.

But he was different.

Not to the point of hero…

He seems to be a good man.

‘Let’s repay this grace. I don’t know if I can help you, but….’

Kim Heeyeon, who does not know Yujun’s dark feelings, had no choice but to think like that.

Yujun smiled proudly at his level in the status window.

‘Already level 56.’

After turning 50, the level has been going up slower than before.

However, he was satisfied because he was not slow in raising the level.

Normally, levels couldn’t be raised so easily.

The current pace was unprecedentedly fast.

The group of chimeras were defeated as they reached the boss room.

In front of the boss room, Yujun stood still.

“You don’t know what’s in here?”

“Yes. The chimeras in this path moved around 24 hours a day, so neither I or the three players could come to the boss room.”

Yujun nodded.

He has enough stamina.

This is because it recovers when your level goes up.

‘These are the best equipment I can wear now…there’s no reason to delay.’

I pushed the door to the boss’ room right away.

The firm and thick iron door slowly began to push back.

“Keueung…”

Kim Heeyeon also clung to the door and pushed it with both hands.

Keueung. Keueung.

As soon as the door opened wide, the humidity covered Yujun’s body.

Yujun scanned the boss room.

A ceiling embossed with an unknown picture.

And a high-rise pillar supporting the ceiling.

Stairs leading to an altar.

It was a place that didn’t match the name of the alchemist’s laboratory.

‘This is the boss room?’

[The late alchemist Paranette, who wanted to become a Death Knight, has awakened.]

The skeleton knight, who was sitting atop the altar chair, opened its eyes.

The red eyes looked around.

[Lv. 68 Imperfect Death Knight]

Yujun breathed a sigh of relief at the window floating on the skeleton’s head.

‘It’s not a Death Knight. Thank God.’

The average Death Night was well over level 200.

If such a thing appeared here, it would have been a total wipe out.

“I’ll deal with it alone. Wait outside.”

“Okay.”

Kim Heeyeon did not retort because she knew well that she would not be helpful.

Yujun turned his head and looked at the dungeon boss Paranette.

‘Alchemist who wanted to become a Death Knight…’

He recalled the plot of War of Gods.

Death Knights were noble knights who were awakened from death by High Lich.

It is absurd that an alchemist tried to become a Death Knight.

There was no other outcome than to be an imperfect Death Night.

“Ho… It’s been a long time since I saw a living man.”

Paranette spoke in a dreary voice.

The eerie voice gave him goosebumps.

‘It’s a little weird hearing a skeleton with only bones talking.’

He has only ever read texts in game.

Paranette was different from the zombies and skeletons.

Its spirit felt incomparably stronger than those.

‘I almost never attack a hidden dungeon alone. I’m a little nervous.’

Even at the same level, a boss is different.

The skills were more powerful and varied.

Above all, their intelligence was higher.

It was a characteristic of rare and boss monsters.

‘Let’s see if the same applies in reality.’

Yujun drew his sword and approached the thin skeleton knight.

“Are you coming to me without fear?”

Clack. Clack.

The bony clashing sounded unusually loud.

“Foolish human! I’m someone who has seen beyond death…”

“Noisy…That’s a lot of chater.”

“W-what!”

“Come.”

Yujun’s confidence was at its peak.

There was no way he would be scared of an imperfect Death Knight.

“I-if you come any closer, your life will be at stake.”

“…”

Yujun didn’t stop walking.

“Death! Do you really want to die!”

“…”

“T-this…Die!”

The Imperfect Death Knight Paranette suddenly threw a flask at Yujun.

Drawing a parabola, the flask fell near Yujun.

Purple poisonous smoke began to rise around the broken flask.

Yujun hurriedly threw himself to the side.

‘Poison?’

Yujun checked his physical condition by looking all over himself.

Fortunately, his body was fine because he moved quickly out of the gas.

He breathed a sigh of relief.

“I can’t believe you avoided that…”

When his attack didn’t work, Paranette panicked.

In fact, a skeleton knight with a sword threw a potion bottle in a sudden move, causing him to stop.

If it threw it with that intention, maybe Paranete is smart.

‘By the way, something feels off.’

For a boss monster, it’s too sloppy.

He had panicked and avoided the flask when it was thrown.

‘The notification said it was a boss monster.’

In any case, level doesn’t lie.

Its level is 68.

Yujun was not careless.

Each such gesture or action could have been calculated.

Yujun walked slowly.

“Foolish human! A man who is ignorant and seeking death. Even now, if you give up and turn back, I’ll show you mercy!”

Paranet’s shout echoed in the empty room.

“…”

“Why aren’t you answering? Human?”

Yujun got closer to Paranette.

“Ah!”

“…”

Tap. Tap.

He didn’t stop walking.

Paranette was furious at the lack of response.

“Keueh!”

Clack, clack.

Paranette, who stepped forward, swung his sword from top to bottom.

Too simple of a sword.

Yujun blocked the sword horizontally.

Clink! Kuk!

Paranette’s sword cracked.

The reason it didn’t fully break was because it was a good sword.

But that alone surprised Paranette.

“N-no!”

Yujun extended his sword at a gap in Paranette.

Paranette backed off and fell hard.

Boom!

Yujun again aimed at Paranette’s head and swung down his sword.

Again this time, Paranette managed to roll over and avoid Yujun’s attack.

Since then, Yujun has attacked Paranette several times.

Paranette shrewdly dodged each time at the moment of crisis.

However, his problem is that he is busy running away, and he has not been able to make a decent attack.

‘It knows where I’m aiming, so it’s easy to avoid.’

Yujun threw away the idea of aiming for its head and wielded his sword again.

Legs, arms, and shoulders.

Those areas are not covered.

So, he will aim for those parts.

‘What’s wrong with this thing?’

Yujun laughed halfheartedly.

Strangely easy.

Yujun’s attack grazed several times before at one point, Paranette’s right leg was cut off.

Paranette’s struggles ended there.

“N-no!”

The moment Paranette panicked and shouted, Yujun’s sword pierced through its skull.

Clack!
