. seven deadly sins (3)

" what do you mean by a plan that benefits us all?"

Nirasha's hand stopped.

Then, a deep smile formed on Tristan's lips.

Kang Jinhyuk.

a person's name.

That's enough.

As expected, Nirasha's face changed noticeably.

...Are you suggesting that we get rid of that person? Are you holding hands?

Aren't you also hurt by Kang Jin-hyuk a lot? We're also grinding our teeth.

Definitely, killing that guy is the gift I want to receive the most this Christmas this year. However, it is not at the level of tarnishing the name of the guild if they find out that they are related to you. The guild itself may disappear altogether.

If the ultimate goal of players climbing the tower is to prevent the destruction of mankind, the main concern of the demons is to manifest Demon Clans in this world.

Even if that's not the case, there must be more harm than good to be with criminals who are wanted.

Well, that's true, but all of that will only happen when our allies are known to the outside world.

If you think that information leakage can be prevented in ruins that can even be broadcast live... I think you're making a big mistake?

It's not an illusion. Of course, it's not groundless bullshit either.

because .

Because we are currently with the owner of the ruins.

A great witch who is good at curses and barriers.

If it's a boss monster who made as many as seven Gate Guardians that it's not easy to command one... .

A barrier that could interfere with the broadcast system could also be opened.

The smirk completely disappeared from Nirasha's face.

A union of boss monsters, mine associations, and upper guilds.

"Certainly if that's the case, there is a possibility."

It is not at a level that only one player can stop.

It will not be easy even with the power of one country.

"Can I take that to mean that you want to be with us?"

First, listen to the plan.

I said so, but my heart was already half-inclined.

I just need to add a little bit of confidence here.

What you need to do with Nirasha-sama and Gandhara Guild is simple. As long as you cut off their supply and rear support, we will take care of the rest.

"If it's a supply route the Olympus Guild?"

Yes. That's it.

Currently, the 2nd raid consisted of four men including Jinhyeok and players from Olympus.

Four people took charge of the attack and the rest were in charge of the rear... .

If they can annihilate the back, those in the front will be completely isolated.

In a word, it means a rat in a poison.

I wonder if I've been silent until now to draw you in as deeply as I can. It's fun. I never thought the demons would be this patient.

Isn't it light? There's almost no risk as the main kernels fall out and you only need to take care of the small ones.

Okay...but. We're not going to play Olympus alone.

Are you asking for support? If you are alone, you can sweep the rear well enough, so why?

If the plan fails, I want to create a corner where you can step out. At least I won't show up.

Nirasha drew a line as if she couldn't yield this much.

In the end, Tristan took a step back.

Then, let's support an apostle from our side.

The Apostle in charge of 'Wrath'. And Gawain will also help you.

Support from the apostles and demon cadres.

That's enough.

not enough

kukukuku!

The stone walls of the entire ruins moved at the same time.

The obstacles that were blocking them disappeared in an instant, and the various monsters that ran wild to protect the area disappeared like smoke.

a clear road.

"Brother is this a bit strange?"

Hyung. All the insects have gone away.

Yoo Yeon-hwa and Lee Tae-min spit out one word at a time.

I can't even feel the reaction of mana around me. I think I've cleared all barriers and traps in the entire ruins...

Maria, who was using the detection magic, also made an expression of incomprehension.

On the other hand.

A strange laugh came out of Jinhyuk's mouth.

'indeed. Are you going to come out like this?'

This is an invitation.

If you are confident, come forward.

Sprinkling the bait out loud was a bit off-putting, but it must have meant that you had prepared a lot.

There's no reason to give up if you're going to pave the way anyway.

Rather, it saved me time, so I am grateful for this.

Let's go.

No, oppa. Isn't this like a trap? Let's just go?

It's a trap... .

You have to be able to tightly squeeze your breath, so that's a trap.

It's just a kidding game I hope it will be like that.

Are you going to leave it late?

Jinhyuk took the lead.

Hyung's confidence is really... Ha. I'll go. I'll go.

And the three people who shook their heads followed behind him.

how far did you go?

The place we arrived after passing through a long passage was a room full of stone statues of numerous monsters.

A place called the Chamber of Confession.

This is the final gateway to the Wailing Witch.

At the same time, it was also guarded by the most difficult of the seven deadly sins.

Kurre...

It was then that the sound of sputum was heard.

kuung! kuung! kuung!

Sado, more than 3m tall, appeared between the stone statues.

A tusk protruding from the green skin.

His explosive belly and muscular arms were quite impressive.

However, the thing that caught my eye the most was the huge cart that he was pulling.

The wagon full of mysterious and bizarre chunks of meat and plants seemed to tell why he was called the 'Apostle of Gluttony'.

T-tiring!

A purple status window appeared in front of everyone.

[In order to inflict a valid attack on the Apostle of Gluttony, you must consume the ingredients in the cart it is pulling.]

[Other than that, all unique abilities and skills are invalidated.]

The meat and plants in the cart have a special ingredient called 'pectecrosin', and only by dissolving it in mana could damage the apostle.

the problem is .

Second, the appearance of these ingredients is terrible, because they have such a terrible smell and taste that an ordinary human cannot even bring them close to their mouths.

No matter how strong a person is, he is never overpowered.

Hey, do you want to eat that?

Maria stepped back with a pale face.

It varies. Really.

If that's the only way, I'll have to try it... but it's going to be a headache.

Yoo Yeon-hwa and Lee Tae-min, who had experienced everything, swallowed dry saliva.

right then

Oh oh oh oh!

The apostle of gluttony found the intruder and took out a mace from the inside of the cart.

The distance narrowed in an instant.

kwaang!

The mace touched Jinhyuk's head and shattered the stone statue of the monster immediately behind him.

'You're still fast.'

Incongruent with his size, his movements are like swallows full of water.

If I didn't know about the feature that the little toes converge inward about 3 degrees before max acceleration, I might have broken my head.

However, the attack did not end there.

It's only just begun.

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!

The apostle of gluttony once again swung his mace.

This time, Jinhyuk passed the attack by slightly turning the angle.

No, I thought I spilled it.

win!

A sharp pain in the shoulder.

It's not because of the mace.

His skin burned as he touched the green smoke that rose around the mace.

Did you pick up only the spoiled ones and eat them with poison?

Jinhyuk widened the distance even more.

According to the system's description, this side's normal attack didn't work, so there was no point other than avoiding it.

At least until you eat it.

Of course, knowing how to do it and being able to put it into practice are two different things.

"Woo, woo ! Tongue, hyung. This whoop!"

It's not the level of the Bob Police, it's the level of the prosecutor's office. How the hell do you mean to eat this?

Lee Tae-min and Yoo Yeon-hwa, who were trying to clench their teeth and stuff food, spit out what they chewed.

Chunks of gray meat fell to the floor.

No matter how dire the situation is, I can't eat this.

Then, suddenly, the apostle of gluttony stretched out his hand toward the cart.

It's like saying that food should be eaten like this.

Groooooooooooooooooooo!

Whoops! Whoops!

A chunk of meat ran down my throat.

[Attack power increases by +10!]

[Increases agility by +12!]

[Movement speed is increased by +8!]

Status windows appearing one after another.

The more you eat, the higher your stats.

It wouldn't be a mistake to say that my already thick arms have gotten a little bigger.

It's delicious... it tastes good. Everything is good, but chew it a little bit. Cheal.

Jinhyuk smiled bitterly.

Oh oh oh oh!

The apostle of gluttony, who roared wildly, began to run rampant once again.

KwaKwaKwaKwaKwaKwa!

kwaaang!

Unlike the apostle of gluttony, whose momentum became more and more equal, the party was not spared a hardship.

Even though I knew the only strategy, I couldn't use it, so of course it was.

He was running away between the stone statues, but it was only a matter of time before he could catch up.

So, when the war situation is overwhelmingly focused on one side... .

Now I'm a little more modest.

I felt like my stomach was going to be twisted as I watched them break into someone else's room and run wild. Now I have to think about how to kill them the most painfully.

A new voice broke in.

Creepy!

the air freezes

An ominous and dark energy began to encroach on the room full of stone statues.

The black-haired beauty walking in front could not be ignored, but the most dangerous thing was the old woman with white hair wearing a worn-out robe.

The apostles I've dealt with so far can't even compare.

this man.

this feeling.

no doubt

Jinhyuk's eyes narrowed.

'That old woman is the Wailing Witch.'

They have thousands of faces, so I was curious to see what they would look like this time around.

'That old woman must be the Wailing Witch.'

finally met

The most important person in this raid.

People whose names are called Magicians and Bosses hide in the back and come out after we run out of stamina? Isn't it too cowardly?

"Whoa. Wouldn't the word 'wise' be more appropriate?"

you?

"My name is Tristan. Lancelot's colleague who faced you ."

It seems that there is something a little more emotional than simply being called a colleague.

What is certain is that he doesn't seem to have any intention of sending it nicely.

Jinhyuk glanced at the entrance of the ruins.

If you're expecting any support, I'd like to tell you to give up.

Why?

Go to Olympus, the guild, Gawain, and all the apostles in charge of anger have gone. Well, seeing such an embarrassment, it seemed like there was no need for a pincer.

Tristan shrugged.

Well, that can't be...

An earthquake occurred in Maria's pupil at the sound of a clear blue sky.

It was amazing to see the demon and the boss of the ruins holding hands, but I never dreamed that I would betray even the Gandhara guild.

If this is true, there is no hope.

The difference in power was so serious that it was impossible to compete at all.

After being thoroughly defeated, it will be a state of being surrounded from the front and back.

However.

Even though everyone was in despair, Jinhyuk was still smiling.

There are two things you're mistaken about. First, I was dragging time against that mass as well.

Hmm. Are you saying you did that on purpose?

I had to wait for you guys to crawl out. If you ever run away with your tail curled, it will be quite troublesome to track you down.

To hunt perfectly, it's best to make the other person think you're a hunter and not a prey.

Because clumsy misunderstanding was the biggest reason that led to carelessness.

Second, I already knew you were going to join hands with Gandhara.

The number of cases that the Mines could choose from were all considered.

I knew I was going to be with the Wailing Witch, but that alone would have made it difficult to guarantee victory.

Therefore, it was not difficult to predict that he would approach Nirasha, who was possessed by a sense of inferiority.

It's not a bad plan to split the forces and beat us and Olympus separately. The basics of tactics are to cut back support and weaken the forces.

It is a gem among gems.

However .

It also means that it is easy to predict.

You're bluffing in moderation. Do you want us to believe that you predicted all of that? If you plan to shake us up by fitting things up late, you're greatly mistaken.

It may or may not be a bluff. You'll find out in a little bit anyway. Which of the two I'm talking about.

Is that what do you mean?

Tristan's voice trembled slightly.

As if Jinhyuk's confident words continued, he lost his confidence a little.

It means that I have also prepared a level of defense for the rear.

Reliable reinforcements were called in.

maybe Much more powerful than what you prepared?
