Chapter 154: It blooms (1)

Name:The Player Hides His Past Author:
Chapter 154: It blooms (1)

The place where I could feel the demons presence was none other than the branch managers office.

AAU Londons branch manager, Baker Chat.

The demon was possessing Bakers body.

The moment I made that guess, the question that had been lingering in my mind was resolved.

I finally understood the structure of this vicious [dungeon].

[Dungeon: City of Gloomy Rain]

[Recommended level: Lv.600~Lv.900]

[Collapse progress: 2.3%]

Emergency update.

This dungeon was not a scheduled update.

Well, this wouldnt be the first time since the [Cracked Dimension Gap] rupture.

Even if we could make sense of that and move on.

The problem was the recommended level.

It was somewhat ambiguous.

It was neither too high nor too low.

Above all, the fact that I, Lee Hoyeol, confidently entered the rupture alone was a confirmation that the rupture was ambiguous.

Well, even if we assumed that it was a characteristic of irregular dungeons and moved on.

The trap really crossed the line.

It was not a trap that players could see through.

Literally, it was so vicious that you could feel its malice.

It was a trap that would lead to the death of not only the players but also the ordinary people trapped in the dungeon rupture.

Even I, a demon hunter and their natural enemy, would have had a hard time seeing through it if it werent for Haiel.

I thought it must be a high-ranking demon.

So I couldnt help but have questions.

A high-ranking demon, but not necessarily a demon king.

Let me kindly give you an example.

If it was just like [Loser of the Western Demon World, Laxioros] that I had met on the Arcana Continent. As soon as he gained momentum, he would have already appeared in front of me.

Laxioros, he was as arrogant as Grandfel.

When you reached the level of a demon king, your confidence would truly skyrocket.

But this guy was strange.

So much so that I began to wonder if it was a trap.

He was cowering in the corner of AAUs London branch.

But as I said, my questions had disappeared.

I looked at the branch manager, Baker.

No, at the demon.

And I recited coldly.

Youve done something presumptuous.

!!

Presumptuous? Do you two know each other?

Schraig looks puzzled.

If it were the demon I knew, he would have used his tongue.

To trick Schraig and smooth out the situation.

But he didnt even seem to have the energy to do that.

It was a very natural response.

Cough cough.

Thanks to leveling up as a demon hunter.

The [Natural Enemy Relationship] between me and the demons had become more solid. This guy, who was neither a demon king nor a high-ranking demon, couldnt even breathe properly in front of me.

I looked down at him with cold eyes.

Shut it.

?

I didnt allow you to breathe.

!

Are you trying to control other peoples breathing now?

What are you saying in front of Schraig?

I couldnt live because of this damn mouth.

If it were the usual.

I would have inwardly complained.

Its just. I agree with your feeling for today, Grandfel.

Soon, my gaze shifted over to the window.

You can clearly see and hear it from here. The sound of people submerged in rainwater moaning in pain. What thoughts and emotions did you feel as you watched that?

!

When I said that much, Schraigs eyes changed.

It was spoken with action rather than words.

Clang!

Schraig immediately raised his sword.

Is what Player Lee Hoyeol said true? Branch Manager Baker?

He could neither confirm nor deny.

Because I didnt allow him to breathe.

He was just clutching his neck and squealing in fear.

Of course, I didnt need his answer.

But, I dont need to know your insignificant thoughts.

!!

Still keep this in mind.

Dont exchange words with prey.

I, Grandfel, had that motto.

The reason why I talked to the demon, who was neither a demon king nor anything more, was simple.

There was a limit to everything.

In other words

Dont cross the line.

I didnt need to raise mana.

I didnt need to raise an umbrella.

The fog was slowly clearing away from the outskirts.

The first thing that was captured in the angle was the players.

Those are Second Sun guild members. It looks like they were in the middle of a battle just now! Now, just a moment. The people lying down behind the players are!

To be precise, the players were fighting desperately to protect the citizens.

Although it was an unannounced emergency update, everyone was able to check the details of additional updates added in real time.

Thanks to this, those who watched were shocked.

The 600-level monster, the ghosts, appeared.

They wont even flinch from most physical attacks.

Does that mean they protected the citizens with those mobs in front of them?

How on earth are they still alive?

Second Sun.

There was no doubt about the skills of the Guild Master Schraig.

However, the average level of guild members, including executives and Zachary, was not exceptional compared to other guilds.

Obviously, not all the guild members would be safe.

Gulp!

Those who instinctively noticed it swallowed their saliva out of nervousness.

!

But it was an incredible sight.

There were no players who were seriously injured or collapsed. Furthermore, even the citizens who had fallen were waking up one by one and raising themselves.

Whir

In London, no matter which street you looked at, the situation was the same.

A rupture, a dungeon that had never appeared before.

All of London was covered by that dungeon rupture.

Not a single casualty was seen.

Are you watching this? Its a miracle. A miracle has happened, everyone!

the United Kingdom.

No, the whole world breathed a sigh of relief.

The moment the rescue workers and military troops were deployed.

Those who set foot in London were able to witness it.

Wait, was there a street lined with trees like this here before?

The noble trees that bloomed from the seeds of tears.

.

.

.

[Mysterious trees appear all over London!]

[Second Sun guild member says, The tree restored my vitality.]

[Survivors, Even while I was unconscious, I could feel the warmth. We would like to express our gratitude to the players who sacrificed for us]

It was a tree that didnt exist in the reality.

Even though he didnt know the name of the tree like everyone else.

Schraig knew the identity behind it.

AAUs London branch.

Wait, its Schraig!

When Schreig appeared there, the busy reporters focused their attention.

All of them rushed toward Schraig.

Schraig-ssi, what happened?

Is AAU London branch the depth of the dungeon?

Where is player Lee Hoyeol?

Schraig suppressed a small laugh.

Its not my place.

The main character, Hoyeol, activated a portal as soon as he cleared the rupture.

He had left.

So even though Schraig begged to express his gratitude formally, it would only be a matter to deal with. So there was only one thing Schraig could do.

What happened today is just a warning.

Unfortunately, he finally realized Hoyeols intention.

The reason he rushed into the Holy War, even moving the Yusra Kingdom, Frost, Muon, and the Mage Tower.

Now that he knew his intention, Schraig couldnt hesitate.

Confidence? Limitations? I dont care about that.

Even if he didnt have faith in himself.

His faith in Hoyeol would not waver.

Making up his mind, Schraig opened his mouth in front of reporters.

Today, in London. I have been saved by Player Lee Hoyeol.

!!!

*

Terrible formalities and procedures.

I was getting used to this guys big mouth a little bit.

Nevertheless, I, Lee Hoyeol, was inevitably a slave to capitalism. Pure integrity or whatever, I wanted to check the [Hexagram Brooch], so I hurriedly manifested a portal!

Yusra Kingdom, the office.

I pulled a hexagram brooch out of the inventory.

Indeed, it was really a set item.

I could feel the two brooches pulling each other.

If I combined the two, would it have an additional effect?

Just like when I was excited about transformating combined robots as a kid.

My heart swelled with anticipation.

However.

Theres an order to everything.

Yes, I needed to look at the information on the original item before putting it together. Of course, it was best to boil the tea before checking the information.

Buluble

If I skipped the green tea even if just for a day, my mouth would be prickly

Clink

Anyway, it wasnt until I tilted the teacup of a green tea bag that I was able to see the effect of the Hexagram Brooch. Then I unconciously opened my mouth.

Its absolutely brilliant.
