Kerenos retched several times before eventually vomiting on the ground. It was dirty. Why do this in front of me?

“Oof.”

I approached him and patted him on the back. I would like to know why he was doing this during battle but I couldn’t pretend to not see it. I was doing this for around 30 seconds when I heard Mudur’s voice.

[Kukuk. He is a weakling, old man. You are being helped by such a weak person?]

‘If you want to make trouble again then shut up. Jerk.’

[Chwik. I can crush them with one finger.]

‘You’re bluffing.’

[Huhu. You are free to believe it or not. By the way, what is bluffing?]

‘......’

Just then, the big man who flew into the building stood up and cleared the wreckage. There were some slight wounds so the attack had worked. Indeed, that guy’s spear was so fast that it was hard to stop all of it.

“Huhu. How interesting. Who are you?” the unknown big guy asked as he bumped his gloves together. He was smiling like this situation was interesting. However, Kerenos was still vomiting and I was still patting him on the back.

“Are you okay?”

“Sigh. I’m fine. I think I took the wrong medicine.”

“Don’t just pick something up and eat it.”

“Hooooo. Huh?”

The big man on the other side smiled. One of his teeth was broken but he didn’t seem to mind. "I will start the introductions. My name is Hutton. Well, as you can see, I’m a mercenary hired for money. Huhuhu.”

This person suddenly introduced himself. I made a dull expression at the unexpected greeting and asked, “What do you want me to do?”

“Kukuk! I like to fight against the strong. I want to know your name. I’d like to know the name of the person I’m going to defeat.”

“...Stop talking bullshit. You will die soon.”

“Kuhahaha!”

Hutton laughed and cocked his head. I thought he was a bit strange. He definitely wasn’t a NPC so he must be a player...

Aidan’s voice could be heard in the distance. There was a bit of anger in his voice.

“Hey! Can’t you do it properly? Don’t you want to get paid?! Eh?”

“...Ah, I really want to kill you. If only you’re not paying me.” Hutton muttered in a small voice but I could understand it.

Well, I agreed with him. I wanted to stab the fork spoon in Aidan’s head right now.

“Oh, I forgot the fork spoon.”

The moment I tried to bring it out of my inventory, Kerenos spoke, “Sigh. Old man, I’ll take care of this.”

“You?”

“Yes, I’ll take charge.”

“You are drunk and the number of words has decreased.”

“Is this what the person who took my money should say?”

“Cough.”

I felt a bit guilty. Well, I’ would pay him back. I had no intention of being in debt.

“Sigh. In any case, you should go to the rear, old man. You’ve seemed to be concerned about that place for a while.”

“You cheeky guy.”

“Ah, do you know the man who used my money to hold a celebration?”

The brusque Kerenos was frowning. It was probably right for me to step back. Well, I was the one who did something wrong first. I turned around while wondering, “You won’t die?”

“I won’t step forward if this was the case.”

Kerenos waved his hand and I couldn’t help smiling at the sight of him speaking while smelling of alcohol. Then Punghee, who was nearby, floated to Kerenos’ side.

“Puuuung~”

“Huh? Why is she...?”

[The sacred creature of the wind, ‘Punghee,’ has received a clue on how to awaken an ability.]

[If you leave the sacred creature here, there might be good results.]

“Hoh.”

I was a bit puzzled by Punghee’s unexpected behavior but I soon felt admiration. It was unthinkable luck. If Punghee grew a step further then she might be able to help me. Punghee wrapped around Kerenos’ neck and cried out, “Puung!”

“Uh... You’re Punghee... old man, what is this?”

“I don’t know. This guy. Just keep her with you.”

“Aish. I’m so drunk that she feels heavy... Hiccup!"

He didn’t look that bad. Hutton walked forward like he had been waiting a long time and bumped his gloves together. “Is it all ready now? I waited a long time.’

“Ah, I’m sorry. Sorry, I’m a bit drunk.”

“Kuhuhu. I like it even more. It is usually more fun to engage in drunken combat.”

“Ahh, I agree.”

I turned around with no hesitation and started running toward the place where the two soldiers had chased after the villagers. A loud noise was heard from behind.

* * *

In the dark Garbage Village...

There was a man running along with the villagers who fled into the deep alley. His name was Joseph. He was the man called the death paparazzi. There were three reasons why he was now running with them.

FIrstly, it was the existence of Aidan. That person knew Joseph’s face. If they met then Aidan would know Joseph deliberately provided him with the wrong information and this might cause trouble. He couldn’t give up his hard-earned purse strings. He still had a lot of profit to eat.

Secondly, the two soldiers who were now chasing them.

“Stand there!”

“Huhu! I’ll be cute for you!”

Joseph frowned and used Blinding Flash with his camera. There was a white flash and they were blinded.

“Kuaack! Dammit. Again!”

“My eyes! Shit!”

This situation had been repeated from the beginning. Joseph blinded them and led the fleeing villagers away. Fortunately, there were only two people who followed and Joseph alone could resist them. However, this would only work one or two more times.

“Come on, run.”

“Thank you.”

“Thank you very much, Uncle!’

“Uncle! Be strong!”

The woman and two children in front of him were Joseph’s third reason for appearing here. The children were twins and his instincts were to save them when they were in danger. Maybe it was because he was also the parent of twins...

“Kuuack. You!”

“This crappy guy...”

Damn, was Blinding Flash already released? The more the effect of Blinding Flash occurred, the less effective it became. Joseph urged the twins and woman in front of him, “Why aren’t you running away? Go quickly!”

“Yes, yes! Thank you!”

The woman grabbed the twins’ hands and started to run. The twins turned around and waved cutely. He felt a sense of pride for some reason. His Haeun and Hajin would look like this when they grew up.

“Ugh...”

Suddenly, a dagger flew toward him and hit his thigh, causing his knees to buckle. It was virtual reality but the pain was pretty realistic. He felt something pulling and the dagger inserted in his thigh was pulled out. Joseph turned his head to check and saw there was a string connected to the end of the dagger. Shit, it really hurt.

“You dare to stop us?”

“I’ll have to show you a bitter taste.”

A soldier licked the blood on the dagger and slowly came forward. It was up to here. Still, his heart was happy. He couldn’t see the twins so they seemed to have hidden safely. However, it would’ve been safer if he bought more time. This thought made his heart feel heavy. They had to be okay...

“It is outrageous. Are you a reporter?”

“......”

Joseph didn’t answer. A sharp dagger touched his neck and he could feel blood flowing.

“Where did that woman run to just now?”

“......”

“It seems you have no intention of answering. Well, it doesn’t matter. I can track footprints. Huhu.”

Joseph’s eyes flashed.

“Ugh!”

The soldier groaned as he was headbutted in the nose. The soldier with a dagger sat down with a nosebleed and the other soldier kicked Joseph.

“You!”

“Kuock!”

Joseph tried to get up but his legs didn’t have any strength. His health was already low. If he knew this then he would’ve become a tanker with good defense. Damn.

“Let me see. This won’t work. Hey, Kenji, does it matter if I kill him?”

The man called Kenji replied, “Ugh. Terman, just paralyze him. I will be the one to finish what’s left of his life. I must kill this bastard.”

The man called Terman shrugged.

“Yes, let’s get it done quickly and have some fun.” Terman said so and pulled out a dagger.

“If you want to avoid it then do so. My dagger is covered with paralysis poison.”

It happened as Terman was rushing over quickly.

“Ack!”

A short black dagger could be seen embedded in the back of Terman’s head. Terman collapsed and died. Joseph’s eyes widened at the sudden situation. Someone was walking into the dark alley.

“Joseph, why are you here? What are you doing sitting on the ground? Are you eating dirt?”

“Ah... Elder, I’m saved.”

Joseph sighed with relief. Now his worries were relieved. This person was strong.

“Hrmm. You’re injured. Tsk tsk. Very weak.”

“Haha... I’m ashamed.”

Then Joseph saw Kenji quietly sneaking away. He probably knew he couldn’t handle the old man.

“Elder, that person...”

“I know.”

Suddenly, a fork spoon appeared in the hands of the old man and flew. The fork spoon quickly landed in Kenji’s back.

“Ugh!”

The old man walked slowly toward Kenji. Then he pulled out the fork spoon and started to stab at Kenji’s limbs at a rapid pace.

“Kuaaack!”

Joseph couldn’t bear to look at it. Who would think of him as a village chief? Joseph watched him calmly killing the player with a fork spoon and thought that people might not believe him even if he published an article about it later on.

“I don’t know...”

Click.Click.

Joseph decided to capture some evidence.

The sky almost fell.

The moment she exchanged her final farewells with Kis, his voice suddenly echoed. The situation was so sudden that Helena was forced to panic and felt like time had stopped. Kis ran toward Aidan but his actions were futile. In the end, Aidan’s anger exploded and he tried to kill Kis and her father.

Fortunately, the two of them were still alive but Helena felt helpless about the current situation. All she had was a small silver longsword. Helena gazed at the fluorescent shield in front of her and bit her lip. She saw blood flowing from the nose of the woman called Crystal.

‘It is disintegrating. It is too damaged.’

What was she doing while they were having this bloody struggle for the village? Helena was upset and ashamed. Then she heard the sound of something cracking.

‘No...!’

She could see a small crack in the shield that guarded the villagers. If this was gone, all the villagers would die or be sold into slavery. Aidan’s anger would only be relieved after he killed a few people. Helena quickly turned her head. Then she pulled out the silver longsword.

‘If it is this...!’

Helena pulled out the silver longsword and pointed it at Aidan’s neck. Blood flowed despite the fact that she only pressed it lightly, showing how close the blade was to his neck. No, maybe the silver longsword was this sharp.

“Helena... this woman!”

“Shut up, you crazy killer. I’m done with you.”

“D-Do you think you will be safe after doing this? Eh?”

“If I die then you die too. Let’s go together.”

The silver longsword moved closer to his Adam’s apple. More blood flowed than before. Helena became serious as the flustered nearby soldiers tried to draw their swords.

“Drop your weapons.”

The soldiers faltered at her words. Perhaps they would listen to Aidan more than herself.

“Tell the soldiers to drop their weapons right away. Right now!”

“T-That. I can’t do that!”

“Kuaaack!”

Helena’s silver longsword stabbed Aidan’s thigh slightly. She quickly pointed the silver longsword at Aidan’s neck again and declared bleakly, “I told you that we will go together. Let’s see who will win.”

“Aaaaack!”

Helena’s silver longsword stabbed Aidan’s thigh once more. Aidan’s bloodshot eyes turned toward the soldiers.

“Kuuack. D-Drop your weapons. Drop it, you bastards! Drop it!”

“......”

However, the soldiers didn’t respond.

“I-I will double the pay! Double it!”

One by one, they started to lay down their weapons. Helena’s lips curved up.

“Money is truly the best.”
