Regress and Eat

I opened the door and walked in.

The intruder holds the sword and is as solid as a stone.

He looks at it and focuses Mana on his hands.

“Did it work?”

If the answer doesn't come back soon, I'm going to rush in and take him down.

However, the intruder's lips moved and said the sentence I wanted.

“It worked, whispering. ”

His pupils are shaking and gradually stabilizing.

Evidence that brainwashing works.

What you answered with that body was not an intruder, but a sword.

Ordered to speak for him.

“Good for you.”

Blade Brainwashing Skill, [Sword Whispering].

The success rate of this skill, rank A, is statistically around 50%.

The moment the intruder grabbed the hilt of the blade, he planned to use the skill, and each one was prepared according to whether it worked or not.

Fortunately, the brainwashing has worked, so things will be simple going forward.

“Tell him to follow my instructions and questions from now on. ”

Once the intruder was instructed to reveal his identity, the polymorph was released gently.

I knew right away who he was when I saw his face.

His lips move.

“My name is Diderek Bandik. ”

I kicked my tongue.

“I invited a giant. ”

The identity of the intruder is a former Dutch SS-class hunter.

A person with a dark reputation who dealt with some back-world tasks such as espionage and assassination rather than dungeon exploration because of his unique skill tree.

‘When I heard the name, I mainly took a national commission, but I guess it's still time to go up to that level. ’

He was the number one hunter in the industry that no one had ever matched in his past life.

Why did he suddenly hide his tracks in his last life? · · ·

I was asked by the Chinese government to break in and kidnap Angelica, and then I was caught in a trap set up by Hibiki. ’

Angelica stabbed Diderek in the neck without shaking, and it was buried in a secret that only five guild leaders knew.

She then did not respond separately to China.

But the collapse of a country called China happened less than a year after that. ’

If you think about it now, it is no coincidence that the number of prophecies about the Chinese dungeons decreased after attempted abduction.

‘Anyway, I knew who he was. ’

He's going to be a lot bigger in the future, but he's not a hunter who can move around with a little money at this point.

“What about the client?”

He replied.

“Grand Croix Guild. ”

“Hot.”

I tried to laugh because it was boring.

‘I'm letting them go now because I've been pushed to the top of the priority list. ’

I dug up a grave to lie on so actively, I had no choice but to meet my expectations.

“What's the quest? ”

Diderek replies quietly.

“First, hack the data of dedicated servers that can only be accessed by the guild leader. Secondly, uncover the secrets of rapid growth, such as the identity of the items he uses. Number three. ”

My eyebrows twitched when I heard the last quest.

“· · · · · · Assassinate Seo Jin-wook, the guild leader, if it becomes an environment after observation. ”

You're crossing the line again.

I scratch my head with a light sigh.

“You must be nervous, Kyung-rock Kim. ”

Next, I asked you what line this quest is about.

Of course, they didn't tell him about it, but he asked because he assumed the client's position was behind the scenes.

In addition to Guild Master Kim Kyung-rock, he named a few more executives.

“Then · · · ·. ”

My next words were not for Diderek, but for the sword.

“I need you to do a job for me now. ”

I had not come into contact with the sword, but I felt like he was breathing into my brain for some reason.

*

In a few hours.

“What time is it? ”

“It's almost 6 in the morning. ”

It was still early to get to work, but Kim Kyung-rock and three senior hunters were meeting head to head in the Grand Croa meeting room.

Kyung-rock Kim grumbles.

“No, he said," If it worked, if it didn't work, what's taking him so long? ”

“I see. We're going to start sneaking in around 2: 00 a.m., and it's going to take an hour or two. ”

“That's not why we're sitting here all night! ”

Kim Gyeong-rok, who paid a fortune to hire Diderek, couldn't wait until the next day to go to bed.

So, I was building a night with three other guild members who were aware of this and was waiting for the results in the conference room.

Back then.

Queek.

Suddenly the conference room door opens.

Kyung-rock Kim thought, maybe for some reason his secretary went to work early today.

‘Anyway, I didn't ask her to do it, but she works hard on days like this. ’

He shouts in an annoying voice.

“Hey! You're in a meeting here, so don't come in until you do! ”

“ · · · · · ·. ”

The answer never came back.

Once the door is completely open, the four Hunters in the conference room gaze toward you in unison.

“What?”

There was no one outside the open door.

Back then.

Queek.

Naturally, the door closed again.

“ · · · · · ·! ”

Then the four hunters who were sitting up rose up in unison.

But it's too late.

Puck!

The blade protrudes from the neck of the hunter who was sitting closest to the conference room door.

“Queek!”

As the air shakes, a man reveals himself.

He pulls out the scroll with his bare hands and tears it apart.

At the same time, there was a powerful energy in the conference room.

“It's settled!”

Now no one can go in or out for a while.

It all happened so fast.

Kim Gyeong-rok's eyes widen, noticing who the opposing Pokémon are.

“You!”

I never faced them in person, but I couldn't recognize their faces because they made a deal through a representative.

The opponent is Diderek Bandik, who has been assigned this quest.

Kim Kyung-rock is appalled.

"That crazy bastard! ’

The user always draws its weapon and aims at the target.

Why all of a sudden? Are they being reasoned? ’

I have a fever in my head and think fast.

On the other hand, he reveals himself and pulls out the sword with his expressionless face.

Puck!

The throat was pierced, but Class A Hunters did not die instantly.

“Grrrgh!"

A red bubble flows down the neck with a fluttering sound.

Diderek looks at it and swings his arm.

Shhh!

The severed head rises into the sky and rolls on the floor of the conference room.

Degul, the moment Hunter's head rolls under the feet of another guild member.

Their eyes widened again.

Puck!

Diderek plunges a knife into the chest of a lying hunter corpse.

And...

Gulp, gulp.

Srr!

“Well, well, what the hell is that? ”

The blade that dug up the corpse began to suck out the rest of the blood.

The reason he attacked the bowl first was because he was the closest.

The creature controlling Diderek Bandik thinks with a spiritual smile.

‘Once it's big, there 'll be plenty to eat. ’

In the blink of an eye, the body turns into a mosquito mummy with only leather left.

The speed at which a balloon full of water explodes.

After such a long time, the blade absorbs human blood and moves Diderek to clear the debris.

Whoa!

The flaming sword completely burns the corpse like a tree bark and turns it to ash.

It was because Seo Jin-wook asked me not to leave any trace beyond the need.

Anyway, he's a pain in the ass! ’

He's grumbling inside.

“Hit it!”

The remaining three hunters rush in unison.

Seeing that, Magma sighs mentally.

‘Idiots. ’

Since it was early in the tutorial, there was a silly part for the Awakenings around the world.

[Sword Whispering] You think he's in control of the dead.

‘It took me 3 seconds to react and run when I saw my colleague get hurt. ’

If Seo Jin-wook were here, he would have been massacred before he even reacted.

Shhh!

Diderek follows the large Ben Sword and an enormous pressure swept through the front.

“Grrrgh!"

After sealing the two from afar, you encounter the nearest one.

Diderek's left hand quickly picks up the axe that was full of bowls.

“Die!”

Diderek stops the longsword flying with an axe and stabs Hunter in the thigh with a dead body.

Hunter gets down on his knees screaming.

“Grrrgh!”

It was a scene of laughter when I was watching.

"Can't fight right away because you can't endure this much pain? Anyway, humans. ’

When both legs are cut off, they crawl with the remaining arms, and when the arms are cut off, they are compared to some aggressive species that bite with their teeth.

‘But the only advantage is that the blood doesn't taste bad. ’

Everything outside the dungeon is full of food like this · ·.

The blade clenches its tongue, grumbling at its position.

Usually, Seo Jin-wook only feeds on the blood of the devil at most.

So today was the day to resolve the cravings.

But · · ·.

‘I'm glad I tasted blood in a while. ’

The corpse slits the kneeling man's throat and sees hunters running from behind.

It was a swift move, but the blade was clearly looking into the gap.

‘An awkward sword. ’

The blade shifts, leaving nothing behind.

That's how the sound of tearing air rang twice.

Apparently, I twisted it just twice.

Aaaaah!

Dozens of hunters in the air were cut off.

The conference room turned into a sea of blood, but that was also brief.

Ugh!

When the blade touches the ground, it draws the exhilarating blood.

"Don't let your meals go unpunished. ’

Survive alone, Kim Gyeong-rok, who has a white face, mutters.

“Son of a bitch! ”

It was a mess in my head.

Although he's an SS class hunter, he said he was hiding and assassinating! ’

As long as I showed up openly, I thought I had enough luck.

One Class S Hunter and three Class A Hunters will be able to deal with one · · · SS Hunter.

Diderek's skill tree is vulnerable to all-out warfare, so once the raid fails, he can flee without hesitation.

By the way.

"What the hell, that sword! ’

Kim Kyung-rock's eyes did not follow him properly.

Whoops!

Both bodies that had been drained of blood were also completely incinerated.

The dry gaze was shifted towards the stiff Kim Kyung-rock.

The final whisper of the dead man resounded through the vocal chords of an SS class hunter.

Cool voice.

“Will you rebel? ”

“This · · · ·! ”

Kyung-rock Kim develops his unique skill.

[Replay!]

Except for his body, which was wrapped in a sword, he could not see Mana.

I noticed that he had done something and the result was different.

“I don't know what it is. ”

Diderek's blade is pointed at the target.

“I can't eat your blood anyway. ”

“ · · · · · ·?! ”

After what I couldn't understand.

“In the meantime, cheer me up. I've got a lot going on right now. ”

“Crazy bastard, die! ”

Kim Gyeong-rok rushed in with his sword.

With all his might, he pushes Mana to a point.

A sharp line to Diderek's neck along the trail.

Suddenly, there is a strong light in Kim Kyung-rock's eyes.

It's working!

You feel something when you swing the sword for a long time.

If you draw a sword along the sword in your head, you will know where there is no turning back. The moment the sword reaches that point, victory or loss is already decided.

Kim Kyung-rock realized that his sword had just crossed that point.

I am confident that even if the sky and earth are turned upside down, even if the universe collapses, it will kill the breath of this black opponent. Accelerated spirit is so neat.

Just before the repentant blow succeeded.

Chang!

Sharp friction.

The resonance of the low and heavy metal, which is then crushed.

“ · · · · · ·! ”

Kyung-rock Kim felt that his hair was getting soft.

It gives me goosebumps.

He looks at Diderek's snake-like eyes as he approaches.

“How!”

The sword in your hand wiggles so tightly that it turns white.

His gaze is nailed to the crossing sword.

Diderek stopped Kim Kyung-rook's sword in an unstoppable trajectory.

What was that? ’

The point where the machete began to move, and the point where it arrived.

There were only those two points, but I couldn't see the lines connecting the dots.

At least in Kyung-rock's eyes, it was invisible.

I was mistaken!

I now know that there is a sword that moves outside of the world I recognize.

A groan flows through the door.

“Grrrgh!”

The blade of the sword waves in a curved fashion.

Since then, Kim Kyung-rook was busy stopping him.

Diderek's sword is fierce and sharp. Storm-like energy rises along the swinging edge. The burning sword changed every grain. Kim Kyeong-rok noticed another thing while the shooting went back and forth a few times.

"How many swords are you using?" ’

There are eyes that distinguish between swordsmanship mastery.

Beyond the simple difference in color and shape of the detector, the properties hidden in its movement.

Every time he swings his black, he explodes with a subtle change.

And then eventually.

Puck!

The moment the sword dug into Kim Kyung-rook's shoulder.

He barely leans back with the power of desperation.

Then one of Diderek's eyebrows raises.

“Hmm?"

Rrrrgh!

It appeared that the wound of Kim Gyeong-rok, who had been cut in half, was reattached.

The sword understands the situation.

“You're a renewal skill. ”

And as far as the Mage knows,

“This kind of thing has a time limit. ”

He winces and talks.

“Then I can cut and dice as much as I want without worrying about killing for a few minutes." ”

Bloop.

When I heard that, I was sweating on Kim Kyung-rock's back.

He raises his arm and mutters.

“Please hold on long enough. For me.”

*

Exactly 5 minutes later.

The corpse sat on the floor and looked at Kim Gyeong-rok, trembling.

In that short time, Kim Kyung-rock's expression had completely changed.

It looks like an ash tree with a face full of tears and snot.

He said, crouching.

“J, Zea · · · Zeba · · · ·. ”

He speaks in an indescribable manner.

“What? Are you done with your skills? ”

I just inserted the blade into Kim Kyung-rock's elbow joint, but this time there was no regeneration.

It was unclear whether the unique skill was deliberately aborted or whether the effective time had ended.

The horse thought to ask Kim Kyung-rock's body for clarity, then decided to quit after losing his temper.

“So, shall we do this? ”

Kyung-rock Kim nodded several times, trembling at the bars. Violently enough to prevent the cervical vertebrae from breaking.

The short amount of time the skill was activated felt like years in Kim Kyung-rock's head.

In the meantime, I can't even remember how many pieces his body was cut into by a machete, and then glued back together, and how many times he was stabbed, cut, and then healed.

I just wanted to get out of this hellish situation quickly.

Meanwhile.

This isn't funny. ’

The excitement of the sword was not only because of Kim Kyung-rock's reaction.

Diderek's Manado, a temporary host moving by [Sword Whispering], has done his part.

You can feel the chassis of a series of processes that absorb Mana from the person's core and amplify it into a sword.

However, it's been a long time since I've captured the Mana of another human being in the blade, and there is a clear difference.

‘Damn, he left me with nothing. ’

It wasn't just that.

A Awakened Body that overcomes its limits as Mana activates.

Diderek was also an SS class hunter, and even though the blade was controlled and moved by itself, it didn't feel like it was swinging at all.

All points, such as the explosive force of the nervous system or muscle strength, and the flexibility of the skeleton, are not sexual.

The corpse kicked its tongue in.

‘It won't be fun to try any more. ’

He wore it once anyway and threw it away.

Now that we don't have a proper contract, Diderek must always hold the sword in his hand to maintain the [sword's voice], but he won't allow it any longer.

‘This game is over. ’

He moves his body and brings his sword to Kim Kyung-rock's body.

The other arm guides Kim Kyung-rock's sword and aims for Diderek's heart.

And carry the weight as it is.

Puck!

Tsk!

Choreography of the companion is a simple matter, as long as the opposition has completely lost its will.

That way, the blade pierces Kim Kyung-rock's neck, and Kim Kyung-rock's sword pierces Diderek's heart.

Manat's light disappears completely from both cores.

Whee!

Diderek's shadow shifts, and a figure pops out.

“· · · · · · uhhhh! ”

It was a bunch of zombies.

The zombie holds his ordinary sword in his hand, and he retrieves it and holds it in his hand.

"Damn, I'm ready, but I'm offended!" I can't believe you got me in the hands of a dead man! ’

The corpse's telepathy echoes, but the zombies do not respond.

Silently, tear the scroll once again following Nate's instructions to steer from afar.

Let's do it.

Pa!

The teleport is triggered and flashes of light cover the zombie and the dead body.

That's how you hide your face.

All that remained in the Grand Croix conference room were the bodies of Diderek and Kim, who killed and killed each other.
