Episode 137
“In the end, I decided to walk. “You are on the side called Daesalseong.”
“… … .”
“So, survive until the end.”
Massacre.
What on earth is that?
Maybe we can find the answer to this problem on the 20th floor.
Nam Sohyun, the girl I need to meet, is also a living person.
“You talk as if I’ll never see you again. “Son Seo-yeon.”
“Maybe so.”
For some reason, Son Seo-yeon’s expression looked serious.
There are some guesses.
I received a penalty from the tower, removing me as a target. That is most likely the reason.
“Do you regret it, Son Seo-yeon?”
“what?”
“Becoming a murderer.”
“… … “I have no regrets.”
She pursed her lips tightly.
– Because I could have killed them with my own hands.
Son Seo-yeon’s trauma that the strategy book showed me.
And the sound of my heart that I heard now.
The context puzzle comes together naturally.
“Right.”
I looked at Son Seo-yeon and nodded.
The sight of her becoming a murderer instead of gaining the strength to take revenge feels pitiful.
At this moment, I couldn’t make any value judgments.
This is an apocalyptic space where the boundaries between good and evil have become blurred.
“I don’t regret it, but it’s true that I feel empty sometimes.”
It’s my first time.
Son Seo-yeon reveals her inner feelings.
Maybe it’s because I’ll never see it again.
Revenge that is already over.
Nevertheless, the attributes of a monster still reside within the body.
I think I can understand her a little bit.
I too feel empty.
Since entering the tower, my entire daily life has been a struggle to survive.
I killed quite a few people to survive.
Sometimes they assassinated people, and sometimes they slaughtered innocent people.
Can I really say that I am different from Son Seo-yeon?
It is difficult to give an answer at the moment.
“You too survive. Seoyeon Son. Until you see the ending of the tower.”
But she didn’t answer anything.
He just chuckled, turned his head, and left, leaving behind a lingering smile.
* * *
Now what I have to do has been condensed into one thing.
Salseong Nam So-hyun. To visit her and end her bloody day.
Of course, there is one important premise.
‘Can I beat her?’
If you judge only by what you see at the end, you have a good chance of winning.
That was the only reason I chose her as the representative of Salseong.
However, it was not a matter that could be guaranteed at the moment.
There are two variables.
How much she has grown since that day.
And what exactly is the corrective effect enjoyed by Salseongman on Bloody Day?
Although it was only for a moment, the power of the day of blood that Son Seo-yeon showed a little while ago was also surprising.
‘Specifying the target and zeroing in.’
If I hadn’t stopped the bullet she fired, if she had continued to attack me… … .
The results could not have been guaranteed.
Nam So-hyun will also enjoy the same power.
The key point is not to become Nam So-hyun’s target.
I have a method in mind.
I immediately put the bast mask on my face.
[Specify the player you wish to disguise.]
“Han Kang-hyuk.”
The face of that dead guy came to mind, and now I have become Han Kang-hyuk.
And Han Kang-hyuk and Nam So-hyun are already gone.
These are good conditions to make you let down your guard.
“Let’s hurry, Kansu.”

“Kang!”
Many players have already died.
In the Bloody Day on the 20th floor, which started with approximately 1,500 people, a third of them have already disappeared from the minimap.
‘perhaps… … .’
The bloody day may end only after most of the players are gone.
Even at this moment, the ferocious cries of monsters and the screams of players are coming from all directions.
In a scene of horrific carnage like a war, I rode Kansu and quickly moved towards Nam So-hyeon.
“It’s Kansu. it’s hard?”
“Kang!”
“No? Okay, then please hurry up a little more.”
There were moments when I wanted to stop.
Even when I saw a young man surrounded by twin-head trolls and having his flesh ripped off.
Even when I saw a middle-aged woman being dragged by the giant troll’s huge grip.
I felt a surge of desire to stop Kansu and help them.
However, it is impossible for me to save everyone here.
Because I’m not a superhero.
I had to reach Nam So-hyun’s location as quickly as possible and with as much strength as possible.
* * *
20th floor bloody day.
This layer was spicy enough in its current state, but Top was not satisfied with it.
[From now on, players who succeed in PK will receive full HP recovery and 2 stat points for each attack. However, Salseong is an exception.]
“Kang!”
Even Kangsoo was angry at this crazy message.
It was clear that some of the players would be disturbed by the message from earlier.
And the real problem is that this will have a knock-on effect.
Until now, we had to mainly watch out for monsters, but now the fight of all against all has begun.
‘The effect of learning at the tower cannot be ignored.’
Players who have survived until now will have experienced the dirty side of humans countless times in the tower.
Therefore, there is no way to develop trust in another person whom you see for the first time today.
Until now, you may have cooperated with each other against monsters, but now the thing you have to be most careful of is your own back.
It has become clear that the Salseongs will work even harder from now on.
It would be difficult for your precious prey to fight each other.
Whiiiiing-
At that moment, an arrow flies towards me.
30 meters ahead. He is an archer type player.
‘That’s crazy adaptability.’
As soon as the tower’s message was finished, it attacked me.
A considerable amount of magical energy can be felt from the arrow.
It’s natural.
A player who can show this level of boldness despite not being a killer is a model student and honor student that TOP likes.
In the meantime, he must have become stronger by any means necessary.
visor!
He swung Elysion and knocked out the arrow.
I could have just passed him by, but I didn’t want to leave him alive.
Sssssssssssssshhhh!
By the time the kangaroo passed him, its head had already fallen to the ground.
[PK was successful.]
[HP is restored.]
[2 stat points were obtained.]
Without hesitation, I invested all of my stat points into stamina.
And that moment.
– long time no see!
The voice of Demon King Raden came to me.
Raden is connected through the soul of the creature I killed.
The soul of a monster can also be a medium, but the one with the highest probability of connection seems to be the soul of a person.
Although this is just my hypothesis.
“I’m busy.”
– I know. I know what the situation is now.
“Then see you next time?”
– hey! It’s your pet that’s running anyway. Anyway, it’s ridiculously expensive!
“What do you have to say?”
– Is there anything else to say? Sell your soul.
Actually, there was one thing I was worried about.
Healing polluted souls through elixir.
I have sold my soul to her twice so far.
It was at a slight level, but my soul was polluted as a result, and I purchased an elixir to completely heal the contaminated area.
I thought maybe Raden would catch it.
“Is that all you have to say?”
– uh.
Do you not know, or are you pretending not to know?
I don’t think I need to mention it first.
Because it looks okay at first.
“We’re not selling today.”
– I think you’ll regret it.
“I don’t do that.”
– Well, I’ll just be watching from the side for now. Maybe you’ll change your mind?
“Can you stay that long?”
– You killed quite a few lives today.
Raden then let out an unpleasant laugh.
In fact, the devil’s power is sweet.
For some reason, she showed me a lot of favor, and even gave me great power with a soul as small as dust.
But this is difficult once you get used to it.
Maybe she wants me to do that.
“It’s Kansu. Cheer up a little more. “Because we’re almost there.”
“Kang!”
Red dot on the minimap.
It’s really hard to kill.
Even now, one blue dot around her has disappeared.
* * *
“Han Kang-hyuk, what are you?”
“You don’t look very happy.”
“of course! Coming this far is actually a foul!”
It is your area.
Her clothes were already soaked with blood.
‘crazy!’
I can’t even imagine how many people they would have killed.
At this point, I wanted to reevaluate Son Seo-yeon.
“Did you have a pet too?”
“Well, it just so happened.”
At the same time, he kept an eye on her status window.
Stats have significantly increased compared to before.
It is true that it has definitely become stronger.
But there is something more important than that.
The person who taught Nam So-hyeon all this time was the Supreme Being of the Heavenly Demon Church and my teacher.
Clearly her swordsmanship has become much stronger.
“It’s my first time, so I’ll speak politely. go away. Han Kang-hyuk.”
“I just want to take a look. “Players are being rude to each other.”
“Are you out of your mind right now? “With clean clothes!”
As expected, it was clear that on Bloody Day there were restrictions on killing.
“There’s still plenty of time anyway.”
“And what if I end the bloody day?”
“Either try it right now.”
I looked at her and grinned.
“Crazy guy.”
“Oh. “Let me ask you just one question.”
“what?”
“Do you know who Daesalseong is?”
“What are you talking about? Massacre, is there such a thing?”
– What are you planning all of a sudden?
A reaction I’m not sure about.
The only thing I found out is that not all Salsaengs know about Daasalsaeng.
It’s unfortunate, but there’s nothing we can do.
Because I don’t have time to meet and ask questions about each of the other eight castles here.
“Not if you don’t know.”
“Anyway, then I’m going. “If you interfere, I will kill you.”
She left without leaving those words.
They intend to commit massacre again.
I also hurriedly followed her.
It is important to look for opportunities, but first, it was necessary to understand Nam So-hyun’s strength.
Pabababat-
Nam So-hyun moved through the trolls.
Her sword strikes make the trolls lose their heads.
surprising.
Her inaction is higher than you think.
If the power of the Day of Blood is added to this… … .
‘Did you say it was Jaungeombeop?’
I didn’t hear his name, but I definitely felt Master’s scent.
Fortunately among misfortunes, it seems that her master did not teach her the martial arts spirit sword.
Nam So-hyun, who made her way through the trolls, soon found a player.
Sssssssssssssshhhh!
He displayed amazing speed with his sword and killed the player with one blow.
‘It’s the targeting that Son Seo-yeon did.’
Nam So-hyun looked right back.
“How long are you going to follow me around?”
“Well, that’s fine. little bit more?”
“This is not the time to be this relaxed, you are definitely out of your mind.”
Nam So-hyun shook her head and headed forward again.
– Hoyoung!
Raden’s angry voice gave me goosebumps.
“Was it still there?”
– I told you. I will be watching from your side. It looks like they’re trying to ambush me from behind. Is that possible?
“do you have a problem?”
– problem? A lot! Just by looking at it, it looks like the surprise attack has a high chance of failing. Do you think differently?
Raden’s assessment was that the probability of failure would be high.
It’s a nerve-wracking statement, but I can’t completely believe it either.
Maybe she’s using drugs to buy my soul.
For now, I plan to follow in Nam So-hyun’s footsteps and look for opportunities.
