Chapter 139: Eating Out After A Long Time (1)

[Temporary Skill Reaper Transformation]

Effect: Increases all stats, damage, attack speed, and movement speed by 44%, and reduces all damage received from enemies by 44%.

Additionally, reduces the chance of enemies detecting you by 44%.

Lasts for 4 minutes and resets the duration upon killing an enemy.

Can be deactivated upon reuse and has a cooldown of 44 minutes.

This overpowered skill not only boosts all stats by 44% but also nearly halves the damage received.

Should I give it a try now that Ive equipped it?

Ryu Min uttered the activation word without hesitation.

Reaper Transformation.

At that moment, Ryu Mins body became translucent as a dark aura began to seep out.

[You have entered the state of Reaper Transformation.]

[All stats, damage, attack speed, and movement speed are increased by 44%.]

[All damage received from enemies is reduced by 44%.]

[The chance of enemies detecting you is reduced by 44%.]

Everything is 44.

It seems they chose the number 4 because it is often associated with death in Korea.

Still, the effects are incredible. It even conceals my face as a bonus.

To others, Ryu Min now appeared no different than a dark shadow.

His body was covered in a smoke-like dark aura, and this effect applied to his equipment as well.

I must look like a black figure from head to toe, even the scythe included.

Although one might guess it was him, Black Scythe, because he uses the same weapon, the face remains hidden.

The duration lasts for 4 minutes, but killing an enemy resets it.

Meaning, as long as you continue killing something within 4 minutes, it can be maintained indefinitely.

Thus, using Reaper Transformation in prolonged battles can potentially extend its duration significantly.

Especially useful on the battlefield.

In a battlefield rife with death, the skill could last until the wars end, making it a perfect skill to utilize.

Though it has a longer cooldown than expected, so its not a skill you can spam.

44 minutes is a somewhat burdensome cooldown time.

Therefore, Ryu Min didnt plan to use Reaper Transformation unless it was necessary.

Knock-knock-

Hyung?

Just then, Ryu Mins door opened, and his younger sibling entered.

You were in your room?

Yes.

As Ryu Won hesitated, he mustered up the courage to speak.

To be honest, I was feeling a bit overlooked. You were always out and about while telling me to stay home

Im a player, youre a civilian. Plus, you know how dangerous it is out there just by watching the news.

I know, but it still felt unfair.

His sibling, typically so obedient, expressing such feelings must mean the past months had been challenging.

Ryu Min genuinely felt sorry.

Ive been fighting tooth and nail for our survival, to return to our normal lives. But if I neglect the present in pursuit of my goals, whats the point?

Ryu Min resolved to pay more attention to his sibling.

Im sorry. I havent been very wary, have I? Just bear with me a little longer. Once this month is over, there wont be many players left in Korea, so public safety will improve somewhat. We wont have to worry about criminals roaming free anymore.

Really? Does that mean we can go out more next month?

Yes, you can trust your prophetic brother.

Ryu Mins words were true.

Currently, there are only about 3,000 players left in Korea.

After the 10th round, only about 700 would remain.

Only a quarter will survive the 10th round.

Even if there were criminal players among those 700, how many could there be?

Even if present, theyd be few, unlikely to commit conspicuous crimes.

In the end, criminals wont be able to act openly.

Moreover, as the Black Scythes fame grows, the era of rampant looting will end.

Of course, this assumes Ryu Min is selected as the captain of the elite player squad.

Yamtis been instructed, so shell call when its time.

In any case, Koreas public safety will soon be of little concern.

The real problem is that lunatics arent just in Korea.

Expanding the scope globally, theres no shortage of vermin to exterminate.

If such trash were to enter Korea, that would be a different issue.

Thus, its crucial to enhance Koreas prestige and solidify the Black Scythes position.

Holding quasi-state power and controlling players is the best strategy for steering humanity away from dystopia.

Alright, its ready. Eat up.

Yeah, you too, Hyung!

Ryu Min and Ryu Won each picked up pieces of meat, placing them on the wrap.

They topped it with garlic, ssamjang (Korean dipping sauce), chili peppers, and sliced scallions in sequence, then wrapped it carefully in a leaf.

Just as they were about to take a big bite,

Bang-!
