Episode 107. something to piss off
There are a few words that Jinseong Kim hates the most.
– You piece of trash.
-You idiot.
– Unlucky bastard.
-You fucking bastard.
Other than that, etc.
What these curses have in common is that they are words that Jinseong Kim heard while being bullied by his classmates throughout his school days.
And there was one thing that Kim Jin-seong hated to hear the most.
‘Pathetic bastard.’
Every time I heard this, Kim Jin-seong would cry.
Why am I so pathetic? You are the ones who are bothering me when I am not at fault.
It remained as a trauma without my knowledge.
At the time, I had no choice but to let my anger out. Kim Jin-seong, who had a weak and small physique, had neither the strength nor the courage to fight.
But this was not the Kim Jin-seong he is now.
I was no longer a child who was ignored and bullied.
Kim Jin-seong himself was aware that he had now become something that no one could ignore.
‘How can you judge me?’
Kim Jin-seong, enraged by the words that made him angry, immediately used the best card he could pull out.
▶ Use the skill ‘Clone Art’.
▶ Use the skill ‘Clone Art’.
▶ Use the skill ‘Clone Art’… .
Only after consuming all of his MP did he stop creating clones.
A total of eight alter egos were created in this way.
The situation, which had been an unfavorable match of 1 to 3, quickly turned into a match of 9 to 3, including Kim Jin-seong himself.
“Try again, you bastards!”
At the same time as Kim Jin-seong shouted, the clones all swung their swords at the Mantodia tribe.
From that moment on, the situation completely reversed.
This time, the Mantodia people were completely on the defensive and only focused on defense.
I couldn’t find the time to counterattack the repeated attacks of the clones.
Even though the three of them pushed Kim Jin-seong like that, they actually didn’t leave a single wound. It was perhaps a natural result that Kim Jin-seong’s number increased to nine.
Sigh!
Soon, one of the Mantodia tribe was pierced in the abdomen by Kim Jin-seong’s real sword.
From then on, the Mantodia people began to fall apart rapidly.
Even though he was in good condition with no injuries, he was in a dangerous state, but one person was seriously injured and his fighting ability was significantly reduced.
From then on, it could no longer withstand the siege of nine men.
Sigh! Sigh!
Wow!
Soon, the head of one of the Mantodia people, whose body had begun to be cut here and there by the self-immolators, was cut off cleanly.
When one person fell, it didn’t take long for the other two to fall as well.
Wow!
The real Kim Jin-seong, who had cleanly cut off the head of the last Mantodia tribe, looked around and let out a heavy sigh.
“Whoa… .”
Although we won overwhelmingly, it was actually a lot harder than expected.
‘I thought they were a little stronger than the Ads, but isn’t this a difference at the level of an adult and a child?’
In the battle just now, Kim Jin-seong used most of his power.
Still, it took quite a long time to catch just three.
‘At this level, it would be really dangerous if we encountered a stronger polluter than this… ?’
I realized once again that this was a new continent.
Still, since the third round of the preliminary round, Kim Jin-seong was evaluated as a strong prospect comparable to the legendary Yoo Jun-ho.
He fought a fierce battle against only three monsters, using almost all of his strength.
Against ordinary monsters that don’t even look like boss levels.
‘As expected, the New Continent is different. ‘You can’t let your guard down.’
As Kim Jin-seong was wiping the blood off his sword, several new notification lines appeared in front of his eyes.
[Demon Dantillion is intrigued by your fighting style, but at the same time, he is disappointed.]
[The demon Dantillion begins to keep an eye on you.]
‘It’s this guy again?’
Kim Jin-seong made an unpleasant expression.
‘What should I do if I’m disappointed? Or at least show up in person and let me know.’
Jinseong Kim was in a bad mood and nervously removed the notification window in front of him.
But as soon as I cleaned it up, the notification window popped up again.
Kim Jin-seong, who thought it was about Dantillion or something and was about to put it away, quickly stopped.
When I checked, it was a notification window with different content.
▶ You have defeated the monster.
▶ Obtained 250 Vis Creama points.
▶ Acquired ‘Cutting Expert’, a comprehensive attribute of the opposing monster.
▷ Cutting Expert: Gain the following characteristics.
– All-Purpose Cutter Hand: Can change the user’s hand into a giant scythe-like shape. Upon transformation, the user’s strength and agility increases by 10%, and the skin defense of the transformed hand increases by 100%.

‘… ‘You can change your hands like the Mantodia people?’
Jinseong Kim immediately used his newly acquired characteristics.
Then his hands changed into the shape of a truly huge black scythe.
‘oh… !’
Jinseong Kim moved his transformed hand around.
Just looking at its appearance, it looked a bit bizarre.
I swung it around widely to measure its weight, and also tested its strength by clashing it with the swords of nearby clones.
Then, suddenly, I swung slightly towards the wall next to me.
Boom! The image of a deeply cut wall caught Jinseong Kim’s eyes.
‘It’s okay. I think it would be okay to fight like this without a sword.’
As I was testing my newly acquired characteristics, I heard a familiar voice again.
“It’s all over… Heehee?!”
When he turned around, he saw Ji-seong Lee looking at him with a shocked face.
He even sat down and trembled.
However, upon seeing Kim Jin-seong’s face, Lee Ji-seong breathed a sigh of relief with an expression that said he had survived ten years.
‘Wow, Mr. It’s a surprise… I thought you were the Mantodia tribe… !’
Ji-seong Lee, who was holding his heart out, suddenly looked around and realized something.
‘By the way, you really won again, right?’
The Mantodia tribe were beings that Ji-seong Lee had only seen once.
In the first place, the body disposal team only went to beginner level dungeons where there was less risk of death.
There is nothing we can do because hunters who cannot even catch a single minion, let alone a ‘polluter’, on their own usually work in the body disposal unit.
Therefore, it was very rare for the body disposal team to enter dungeons higher than level 10 where the Mantodia tribe appeared.
‘At that time, the party was on the verge of being wiped out by a Mantodia tribe that suddenly appeared in a level 6 dungeon… .’
There were fifteen party members who entered the dungeon. Among them, only four people, including Lee Ji-seong, returned safely from the attack by the Mantodia tribe.
The image of the Mantodia tribe slaughtering the party members as easily as squeezing ants to death still remained vivid in Ji-seong Lee’s mind.
Kim Jin-seong defeated the Mantodia tribe by himself. And three at the same time.
‘What on earth is this person’s limit? At this level, I think I can win even if I face a stronger polluter… .’
A week ago, an image of Kim Jin-seong transforming into Forginae and fighting Shin-woong suddenly appeared in his mind.
If we fight like we did then, wouldn’t we be able to win even if we face stronger polluters? I started to think this.
“I have something to ask you.”
Ji-seong Lee opened his eyes wide at the sound he heard at that time.
‘… Who is it?’
I turned my head to see if someone else had said something, but the only people standing in the passageway were Jinseong Kim and Jiseong Lee.
Only then did Ji-seong Lee look intently at Jin-seong Kim, who was staring at him.
‘Now, is what Jinseong Kim said correct?’
It was almost unbelievable.
This was because it was the first time he had spoken out since meeting Kim Jin-seong in the labyrinth.
“Has a demon god ever appeared in the Demon World Dungeon?”
Kim Jin-seong, who was not interested in Lee Ji-seong’s thoughts, continued talking.
After hearing that, Ji-seong Lee immediately nodded.
“Yes, there is.”
Kim Jin-seong was surprised by his answer this time.
‘Demon gods really exist?’
So, doesn’t that mean that the demon named Dantillion that has been popping up in the notification window so far is real?
“But he has never appeared directly inside the Demon Dungeon.”
At that time, Ji-seong Lee’s answer came next.
“I don’t know completely about the Demon Dungeon, but… . From what I know, the demon god only revealed his identity through his voice in the highest level dungeon. “The main body has never appeared.”
“never?”
“yes. I’ve heard that a demon lord has appeared, but I’ve never even heard of a demon god. But why did the demon spirit suddenly… ?”
Ji-seong Lee looked at Jin-seong Kim with a puzzled face.
However, Kim Jin-seong thought for a moment, then turned and started walking away without answering.
It was because I didn’t really feel the need to answer.
There is no need to be honest with people like Lee Ji-seong.
Ji-seong Lee tilted his head as he watched Jin-seong Kim’s back moving away.
‘what… ?’
He was a man whose identity I could not figure out. It was so unexpected that he opened his mouth for the first time.
‘There are many people who ask about dungeons and monsters related to the New World, but this is the first time I’ve heard anyone ask about demon gods.’
Even as he thought to himself, Ji-seong Lee immediately moved his legs quickly.
This is because the distance from Kim Jin-seong had already grown quite far.
* * *
That time.
“… … .”
Yong Han-gil, standing at the entrance to the dungeon portal, had his eyes fixed on the smartphone screen with a stern expression.
On the screen, the image of Kim Jin-seong and Lee Ji-seong taking steps was being broadcast through a live broadcast from the Colosseum.
[This is how Kim Jin-seong wins again! Against the polluters called the Mantodia tribe, who are much stronger than the Aad tribe!]
[It looks like Kim Jin-seong gave almost his all this time, right? This is the first time I have summoned multiple clones since fighting Shinwoong.]
[But this time, it was Kim Jin-seong who survived until the end!]
– Jinseong Kim! Is he God? Jinseong Kim! Is he God? Jinseong Kim! Is he God?
– After all, Kim Jin-seong thought it would work in the New World!
– Lee Ji-seong: Shit haha
– But it’s true that the devil also appears in the dungeon… ?
Yong Han-gil, who was watching the commentators’ broadcast and the chat window’s reactions, turned off the screen and stared at the sky in silence.
“… … .”
The hunters belonging to the Daehan Clan who were standing behind him all looked at the back of Yong Han-gil with nervous expressions.
‘You seem very angry… .’
When Hong Yeon-seok, the team leader standing closest to Yong Han-gil, was thinking this to himself, Yong Han-gil suddenly turned his head towards him.
Yong Han-gil asked him, who was startled and stood at attention.
“What’s the next crack?”
“The nearest rift is scheduled to be created about 30 minutes away from Kim Jin-seong’s current location.”
Yong Han-gil gave an order to Hong Yeon-seok, who answered quickly.
“Prepare for the void.”
“… yes?”
Hong Yeon-seok made the mistake of asking again without realizing it.
To that extent, the words that came out of Yong Han-gil’s mouth greatly exceeded his expectations.
Yong Han-gil stared at him silently.
“Oh, I understand!”
Hong Yeon-seok urgently bent down and shouted an answer, then immediately began giving instructions to his colleagues through earphones.
Yong Han-gil turned his head towards the sky again and closed his eyes.
‘Just in case, there’s nothing we can do about Kim Jin-seong with these little polluters.’
In fact, it was Yong Han-gil who saw the video of him fighting Shin-woong and predicted that this could result.
However, now Kim Jin-seong was showing within the dungeon what he expected to be at his highest peak.
‘I even prepared ‘Void’ for situations like this, thank goodness.’
– Master.
At that time, Baekjun’s low voice came through the earphones in his ears.
He immediately turned on the microphone and answered.
“Something?”
– Can I ask you one favor?
“Say it.”
– Has any of the Daehan Clan Hunters secretly entered the dungeon?
At those words, Yong Han-gil’s eyes shook slightly.
At the same time, I thought to myself.
‘… Did you really notice?’
