Chapter 7: Backstab (1)

Wait, what did that person just say?

I think hes asking for a better reward.

Did he just try to negotiate with the angel?

Is he insane?

He must be out of their mind to act like that.

The people murmured, but the angel couldnt hear a thing.

Briel doubted her own ears.

What did you say just now, human?

Im not satisfied with the reward. I want something better.

[]

The angel asked again, thinking she misheard, but the humans demand remained the same.

As if it were his right.

How dare this human speak to me like this?

The beautiful face of the angel Briel contorted in frustration.

Should I gouge out his eyes?

Despite the menacing expression on her face, the human continued to stare at them boldly.This chapter is updated by nov(e)(l)biin.com

It was almost laughable.

I thought he was actually decent when I watched him take the first round, but now his spewing this nonsense like a lunatic.

Does he think hes invincible after taking down a few goblins?

The angel wanted to bash his head out of frustration, but she couldnt.

She had already used up her authority to kill using that skill.

That arrogant human. I cant kill them Wait, hold on.

Suddenly, Briels expression changed, a faint smile appearing on her face.

Whats stopping me from killing him? If I want him dead, I can just kill him even without that skill, right?

With a good idea in mind, Briel turned to face Ryu Min.

You wanted a better reward, right?

They made people believe that they cannot compete with an angel. If they try, their heads will explode.

But this was all part of the game plan.

She only killed that guy at first to instill fear and make people obey her every command.

That skill that makes heads explode is a one-time ability. Its a privilege of an angel that can only be used once.

The ability to kill instantly was called the head explosion.

A piece of information he obtained through torturing the angels from the previous regressions.

If I didnt use up that privilege in the beginning.

This is why Briel couldnt think straight anymore.

It was also why Ryu Min didnt flinch in fear.

Angels without their powers arent really that scary.

They may have wings and a few tricks up their sleeves, but thats about it.

Physically, theyre not much different from humans.

If anything, theyre weaker and more fragile than they appear.

Angels are just humans with wings.

Ryu Min wasted no time in seeking revenge on the angel in his next regression.

In the process, he discovered a few things.

Angels are weaker than he thought.

And killing an angel yields hidden rewards.

You cant miss out on hidden rewards, especially if its an item that can be used to advance to the unique class, Grim Reaper.

When an angel is killed, an item necessary for advancing to the Grim Reaper class is obtained.

Since then, Ryu Min continued to kill angels.

In the next regression and the next after that.

He deliberately made a name for himself from the first round and then tried to piss off the angel to the point that she would decide to kill him.

I guess this is the last time.

Every time, the angel tried to stab Ryu Min with a hidden blade in her wings.

But it was always the angel who ended up being defeated.

Getting hit in the back would only work once.
