Episode 5–Shadow Keeper (3)

Episode 3 - Shadow Guardian ([-])

"Hi! This..."

Just after Li Jiyong found the treasure box, I blocked his little mouth.

"Shh, wait."

The world of inactivation is unforgiving.The zodiac signs enjoy the adversity of their characters and add obstacles to the plot just to torment humanity.

Things that say 'Get me!' usually contain traps, and even system messages are not to be trusted.

"These treasures contain more than just treasures."

[The "Abyss Black Flame Dragon" constellation is disappointed. ]

Abyss Black Flame Dragon...he once wanted me to die for a while.

Anyway, I waited a while, and before long, some shadows appeared around the treasure chest.

Well...

It was the gophers, they brought something from the tunnel, threw it out, exchanged messages.

Woo,.,.

Once a certain number of gophers gather, the number of lights illuminating the surrounding environment increases.It was black flame, made of black ether.

It is said that this place is the heart of Black Roots, which is why it has so much black ether burning.At that time, someone's voice was heard.

"It's all because of Yoo Sang Ah!"

There is no need to say who he is.It was a voice I recognized instantly.I firmly grasped the surprised Lee Ji-yong's shoulder.Not yet.

"Because of me, what do you mean?"

In the dim light, two people were caught by gophers.They were tightly bound by branches protruding from the ground.

"I— If Yoo Sang Ah hadn't taken the subway, this wouldn't have been the case!"

"Why is the subway important now?"

How could she accept such nonsense?Maybe Yoo Sang Ah is a saint.Or the sponsor behind her is a saint.

"-...Well, Yoo Sang-ah, you always ride a bicycle..."

Han Mingwu babbled nonsense, his voice trembling.

Yoo Sang Ah said coldly, "Wait a minute, did you steal my bike?"

"Who is this? I told you clearly that I will drive you! You should know how to accept favors!"

"Answer me, did you steal my bike?"

Suddenly, the situation makes sense.This is it.That's why a guy who drives a Mercedes-Benz takes the 3rd subway line.

This is not surprising.Many people have their eyes on Liu Shangya, not only in the company, but also in Jinhu Station.

In fact, Yoo Sang Ah is a valuable person, her atmosphere is warm, and she knows how to flatter others.

[The judge of fire who is similar to the constellation devil hates the role of Han Mingwu]

Han Mingwu's face was so red that it was clearly visible in the dim light, looking dangerous.

"Yeah shit! I did it! So what?"

"Why are you talking like it's no big deal? You're taking someone else's stuff, that's stealing."

"Stealing? Damn, stop talking crap! You should have gotten in my car from the start!"

[Prisoner of the Golden Hoop constellation hates such petty arguments]

I didn't mean to do this, but there's no other way now.I silently grasped the thorn.

"I didn't ask you one thing. I keep asking to take you home, but you keep fucking denying me..."

I threw the thorn away with all my might.The thorn pierced the corner of Han Mingwu's mouth and extended into the darkness.

"Whoa whoa! What?"

[Prisoner of the Golden Hoop Constellation is happy]

Sponsored 100 coins

"Only son!"

Yoo Sang Ah yelled at me, but I didn't look at them.

oh oh oh...

Through the gopher roost, the darkness was ripped apart by the thorns.Then the damn guy came.It could not have been at the root of darkness.

["Dark Guardian" may appear!]

[Subscene has been updated!]

[Sub-scene 'killing the guards' has started!]

Like a slave surrendering to a king, the gophers fell to the ground in terror.A dark figure appeared in the dim light.A tentacled monster reminiscent of the Grim Reaper.

Li Jiyong's condition deteriorated rapidly.

"Oh, bro, that..."

"It's ok."

In the end, Li Jiyong fell to the ground and began to vomit, which is not surprising.

Just looking at it from a distance can feel a lot of pressure.The stomachs of the cockroaches that had been crawling for a long time exploded.Ji Yong Lee, who was associated with cockroaches, may suffer considerable mental damage.

"Ji Yong, how many more times can you use 'Diversified Communication'?"

"...I think I could do another one or two."

"I understand, let's rest here for a while."

I asked Ji Yong to step aside and approached Yoo Sang Ah and Han Myung Woo, who was struggling in a panic.

"Oh! What is this...?"

I took my swiss knife and cut the branch that bound the two of them.I just moved the knife a few times.Then, the branches it touches suddenly erode and the leaves melt.Yes, this is the power of the demon species.

"Back off."

As I spoke, I held up a weapon made from the spine of a gopher.

Level 7 demon species, the guardian of darkness.Among the many monsters that have appeared since the destruction began, the demon species are poisonous.

In fact, the treasure of ground mice is almost a tribute to the devil.Demon species are different from other monster species even at the same level.

[The Dark Guardian is favored by the Demon King]

",,."

The demon species has its own language, worships different demon kings, and has inherited some of the demon king's power through "Dark Roots".

[Dark Guardian utters "fear"]

[The unique skill Fourth Wall has neutralized most of the "fear" effect. ]

Therefore, slaying a demon means becoming a match for their demon king.

"Itur!"

I don't know what it's talking about, but things don't look good.I don't want to fight if possible.

"Mother?"

Yoo Sang Ah, hasn't she left yet?

"I told you not to come."

"The monster just said 'Mom'..."

I thought for a while what this meant.No, wait a minute.

"Um, I think... Kaloud, Yemeni? Ah, that's the pronunciation? Akto?"

For a moment, I thought I was wrong, but I heard right.

"Karitu!"

Surprisingly, the Dark Warden nodded at the end.

This character "Yoo Sang Ah" activated the "Translation lv3 skill

Omg, not only is she good at Spanish.Let's see what happens.

"What is he saying?"

"It...it keeps saying 'be a mother'..."

...becoming a mother? The Dark Guardian yelled again and pointed at Yoo Sang Ah.

"Karitu!"

Yoo Sang Ah's face was full of tears.

"Uh, Mom? I'm not married yet!"

The dark guardian pointed at Han Mingwu this time.

"Karitu!"

Han Mingwu wiped his mouth and turned pale.

"Why am I Mom? Dad!"

Tentacles of the Dark Guardian rise.

Pushu!

"Oh!"

One of the tentacles entered his mouth, and Han Mingwu turned black.There was the sound of something sliding down Han Mingwu's throat.

That's right.This is what it means to be a mother.I later recalled that demon species bred their offspring in the bodies of other species.

"Yoo Sang Ah, you haven't planned on having a baby yet, have you?"

"certainly!"

Liu Shangya immediately understood this sentence, and quickly backed away.I waved the mouse spear on the ground, tearing the tentacles attached to Han Mingwu's body.

The dark watcher growled angrily.

"Carlito!"

Poof! Pass!

The tentacles of this demonic species gradually shattered the rat spears on the ground.Even the stone boar quill that pierced the stomach of an ichthyosaur would be destroyed the moment it was possessed by a demon.

Before I could react, Han Mingwu had already walked away, and Liu Shangya looked at me.

"Is there a chance?"

Her eyes seemed to be asking me, and honestly, I had no chance at all.

Pushu! Pushu! Teon!

After a few blows, Gopher Spear was nearly destroyed, and the hand that held it was in excruciating pain.

The monster guarding the treasure chest is like the ichthyosaur on the Donghe Bridge, which cannot be caught.That's why the original plan was not to deal with the monster, but to get the chest after it disappeared.

But as always, plans can always go wrong.

"Ghost, are you watching?"

【You already know】

Ghosts appeared out of the darkness.I don't know his name, but he seems to be Biheng's cousin.

"Should have some of my mail by now. I want you to give it to me as soon as possible."

[Humph.This is not my responsibility.This is Bihen's stuff] "Now, you took Bihen's place. Don't you see the constellations complaining?"

[Constellation in Prisoner of the Golden Hoop wants to scold Goblin]['Demonic Judge of Fire' constellation threatens Goblin]

The bird swallowed loudly.

【...All right.Instead, just this once.I think it will be very interesting!】

The ghost grunted a few words, and the summoning began.

This item has been delivered from the exchange

[The item "Broken Faith" has been acquired. ]

[Brokerage fees are not charged due to the validity of the contract]

Broken faith.The "Ichthyosaur Core" item registered on the Ghost Bag Exchange has finally arrived.

"."

The Dark Warden smiled as he saw the thing emerging from thin air.No wonder it's laughing.All I got was one level item.It was a knife that broke in two.

[This thing is too old to be used.Its durability is poor and it is difficult to achieve any performance]

Even the ghost who gave him something giggled.

【How can you fight with that old thing? And if you don't have special skills you can't...】

I know, if I didn't know, I wouldn't buy it.

"Ugh......"

I took a breath and concentrated.

kill!

The hilt of the sword began to tremble violently.

cried the ghost in shock.

【Eh? How come】

Surprise is human nature.Because it's a skill I bought from his friend for 10,000 coins.Blue ether began to slowly settle on the surface of the broken blade.

[White Star Energy]

After killing the Ichthyosaur, I bought this skill from Bihen.They have some drawbacks compared to other advanced energy technologies, but they are not currently available.

(Broken faith has responded to your star energy!)

[Blade of Faith is activated!]

A short while later, a shiny white dummy blade popped from the edge of the broken blade.

Broken Faith.Its true expression is revealed when star power is infused into it.

Pushuk!

The number of tentacles increased by dozens, covering my field of vision.With my current level of stamina, there's no way I could safely dodge these attacks.this is too scary.But now there is an opportunity.

kill!

This is because the blade of faith is the best weapon for a demon.

Pachuchuchu!

Tentacles touched by blades are oxidized and severed.The Dark Guardian let out a terrifying scream as its tentacles were destroyed.I feel the power of the magic draining, but I'm in no rush.

Sukakak!

I move the blade calmly.

I don't have tentacles many times because he doesn't have a 'sensory combat' skill and I don't have a sword training skill, so the way I use the blade is terrible.It's natural.I am a scholar, not a swordsman.

One reader fights one reader.

[Attribute effects improve your memory of pages you have already read. ]

Pages of The Inactivation Method flashed through my mind.

"...Dark Guardian's attack pattern is simple. Unconditionally, the top right tentacle will go first..." "After the attack, a tentacle appears at the bottom" "Its tentacles will regenerate, but it will take a few minutes..."

I read diligently and use what I read.

"Wow!"

The Dark Guardian screamed as its tentacles were severed.

On the other side of my field of vision is Lee Ji Yong.The little boy looked at me in awe.Unfortunately, unlike his wish, I am not the main character in this world.But I have confidence in at least one thing.

"Karl Mayndel."

The Dark Warden murmured, barely recovering from the shock.I didn't ask, but Yoo Sang Ah murmured in a trembling voice from behind me.

"How do you know all my weaknesses...?"

Here's what it means, and I give the answer lightly.

"I usually read a lot."

I know the world better than anyone.
