Became a childhood friend of the middle boss (21)
The greenery of the jungle was thick.
The leaves and branches that had grown so thick that they obscured the sky were blocking the sunlight, and the deeper we went inside, the darker it became.
‘I need to prepare for a surprise attack… .’
To get used to this darkness.
As I ran through the jungle by boosting my physical abilities with the mana in my body, I controlled the distribution of mana in my body focusing on my eyesight.
My eyesight has become stronger.
After quickly adapting to the dark, I looked out into the darkness.
It was then that it struck me.
Hiss!
Pajik!
An electric current ran down my spine.
The avoidance instinct was activated.
I immediately put my front foot on the brake and turned my body halfway.
It was a narrow difference.
thud!
A little while ago, a rock fell in the direction I was running.
The ground was hollowed out by a boulder larger than a fist.
If I had reacted late, my head would have been hit by a rock.
‘It’s really bloody.’
I turned my head towards the direction where the rock fell.
Around that time, I could see the presence of monsters hovering around the edge of the detection net, who had been secretly following me since the moment I entered the jungle.
Kikkki! Ukkikki!
Hiding in the darkness of the jungle.
Ape-shaped monsters with their eyes shining on the trees.
The moment I became aware of their presence, a message appeared before my eyes.
[You have encountered a monster.]
[Park Ape (Rank. 01) x 7]
‘Pocket Ape’ is a monster that carries a throwing tool in its stomach pocket and attacks the opponent by throwing it.
I recalled their information.
‘There are a lot of them, but it’s not difficult.’
In the game, their attack power drops significantly after they throw away all the tools they have in their pockets.
From then on, they were just bad-tempered monkeys.
The information I learned from Shinken Taoism was not much different.
so that.
Hey! Ukkikki! Kikkki!
I didn’t complain about the disadvantages of the terrain because they were up in the trees.
However, I was able to avoid the constant attacks by relying on my dodging instinct.
‘It’s not difficult to avoid.’
It was a fast but monotonous attack.
It was not the slightest threat to me, who was accustomed to dark adaptation while receiving help from my avoidance instinct.
Then I became bolder.
Ting!
They will know that they become weaker when they have no tools to throw, so they will try to run away at that time.
Even in the game, monsters sometimes ran away during battle, which was not unusual at all in this place where the game was reflected in reality.
Ukki?
I couldn’t leave it like that.
It’s not easy to chase down all the guys who are good at climbing trees and are quick.
It was too much for me right now.
So I counterattacked while avoiding the attack.
Kang!
If you can feel it, you can hit it.
As soon as I sensed it with my instinct to avoid, I struck the stone with my sword sheath.
‘Do you think you can do it?’
After hitting it a few times, I got a feel for it.
I put the mana in my body into the sword sheath and lifted the stone high into the sky.
──!
The rock returned to the direction it had come from, making a cracking sound.
Ukki!?
puck!
There was a parkit ape in that location.
The guy didn’t know what was happening and was hit by a rock and fell down the tree.
Kwasik!
Squeak… .
There was a sound of something breaking.
Unfortunately, it didn’t seem like he was dead.
Still, it didn’t matter.
Because the guy who fell to the ground can now be caught at any time.

‘Oh my god, is this how you do it?’
I recalled the feeling from before and hit the rock again.
Squeak!?
… Kwasik!
It was a hit this time too.
Another one fell to the floor.
Judging by the fact that there was no sound, it seemed like he had died instantly.
Anyway, so… .
“homer.”
They say even monkeys fall from trees.
I could see not one, but seven birds falling from the tree.
What happened after that?
talent… Twisting… .
“I should have learned a breaking ball too.”
I cut off the breath of those buried in the ground like the rocks they were throwing.
They had to watch my sword pierce their heart without even being able to resist.
‘I handled it without difficulty… That’s how much mana was consumed.’
There is no time to take out the magic stone.
The hunters who will be hiding around watching us will take care of it.
I absorbed the mana dissolved in the atmosphere to restore the mana in my body.
Then I checked the time.
02:26:11
Approximately 34 minutes have now passed.
Considering that there is still a long distance left to go to the Lake of the Leader, the physical drain will be even more severe than this.
‘Can I kill him in this condition?’
I was skeptical.
Even if the leader has been weakened, rank 3 cannot be ignored.
‘I need to preserve as much stamina and mana as possible to reach the Lake of the Leader… what?’
At that time, I saw something rolling out of his pocket.
It was a red fruit that looked like an apple.
“This… .”
I knew this fruit.
I didn’t know it because I learned it from my family, but I knew it because I had seen all the endings of this game in my past life.
[Fruit of Vitality]
◆ Classification of consumables
-Fruit
◆ Detailed explanation
―This is a fruit that Pakit Ape likes to eat, and is also used as an ingredient in potions.
◆ Effect
―When taken, recovers 50 HP.
The fruit I knew was correct.
‘Now that I think about it, there is a high probability of finding this fruit in the game near the places where these guys appear.’
This fruit is not the only one.
There were also blue fruits.
When your thoughts go crazy.
“I need to do some farming for a moment.”
I decided on a course of action.
Then he searched Pakit Ape’s stomach to see if there were any other fruits.
After collecting the fruits like that… .
“If you don’t remove the magic stone, the body will not disappear… “It’s a bit weird, but I guess I’ll have to do it this way.”
Suddenly.
I ripped out their pockets.
This is because their pockets are very elastic, making it easy to hold fruit.
“Monsters are also life… “I’m sorry.”
My conscience pricks me, but what can I do?
First of all, I have to do well first.
I gathered their corpses in one place and left a large letter written in blood on each one’s chest.
[ma] [seok] [off] [nae] [ji] [ma] [yo]
“If you do this, you’ll understand.”
If the hunters take out the magic stones along the way, the bag I got will disappear.
If that happens, the fruit you put inside will fall off.
So I took action.
‘If this were a game, the monster would die and disappear leaving behind only the loot, so I wouldn’t have even thought of using the pocket like this.’
Of course, among Parkit Ape’s loot, there was his pocket.
However, since we couldn’t guarantee that our pockets would come out, we had no choice but to take this method.
“sorry. “I will put your pockets to good use.”
Corpses leaning against trees.
Some corpses had their eyes half-open, some had their eyes closed, and some had their heads crushed.
I prayed for those guys to rest in peace and left.
‘As you head towards the lake of Suryeong, look for any fruit that catches your eye along the way.’
Or you can look for monkeys.
After biting into the fruit of vitality, I decided to jump off the branch and move.
* * *
At that time, on the cliff.
People were leisurely watching the evaluation match while being attended to by the employees.
It was a sight that contrasted with the children fighting life-or-death battles in the jungle.
Of course, the case of parents whose children participated in the evaluation was different.
I couldn’t take my eyes off the screen.
“oh my god… . “Isn’t he dead?”
“I defended myself well with the mana in my body just before. “He might be a little dizzy, but he’s not dead.”
“Even if we weakened the monsters, isn’t it useless if the Apes run around in groups?”
20 minutes have passed since the evaluation began.
By then, most of the participants in the evaluation had entered the jungle entrance and encountered monsters.
Parkit Ape, a rank 1 monster that climbs trees and attacks.
The participants who had been ambushed by the guys were confused.
Even those who had already gone through actual battles and achieved some level of achievement in the Beast King Style could not help but be embarrassed in the face of the ordeal of the Yellow Gate.
However, there were some participants who did not give in to such situations and stood out.
“There are a lot of unnecessary actions, but you deal with them wisely.”
“No matter how fast they attack, it doesn’t matter in the end as long as you have cover to protect yourself.”
Do Seung-woo, a gifted swordsman of Taoism.
He raised his shield to block attacks and protected himself by hiding in nearby rocks or trees.
Then, the moment their attack stopped, they counterattacked.
“You’re good at walking on walls.”
“My son learned quickly. “He taught it some time ago.”
The head of the Shingeom Taoist family, Do Yeik.
Do Yeik praised his skills.
Then Do Seung-woo’s father Do Beom-jun joked with a satisfied face.
“So, the reason Seungwoo lost in sparring was because his opponent was Gyeonwoo, so he let his guard down… .”
It was a time when he was trying to boast about his son to the people around him.
“oh.”
People’s eyes moved to the screen where Dosi Eun was reflected.
A beam of light was shooting out.
No, it was blue lightning.
Lightning.
Thunderbolt flower, Dosi-eun.
While she was taking a stance, she was glaring at the Parkit Apes running wild in the trees.
Immediately after, Dosi-eun disappeared from the spot, leaving behind only a beam of light.
Ukki!?
Demonstrating an elegant walking technique that cannot be compared to Do Seung-Woo’s walking technique.
Dosi-eun climbed the tree in an instant, leaving a scar with a ray of light.
and.
lion onslaught
4 consecutive hits.
She moved like lightning, cutting the parkit apes in half.
People could not help but admire her with blue electricity wrapped around her body.
“It’s a lightning bolt! “It’s definitely a lightning bolt.”
Do Yeik also could not contain his admiration.
Even though the rays of light were not yet thick, Dosi-eun was causing lightning.
He burst into laughter.
But that laugh didn’t last long.
“Seungwoo and Si-eun’s skills have improved significantly.”
“It’s all thanks to the head of the family.”
“I think Si-eun will like it when she hears it.”
“But I’m also worried. Now we are at the beginning of the jungle… .”
“… .”
Do Yeik stroked his beard.
He was pleased with his grandchildren’s skills and was calmly assessing the situation.
“If you delay time against them and waste your stamina and mana, it will be difficult to fight the leader later. “I’m worried that the kids are even thinking about how to distribute their physical strength.”
“If it’s Seungwoo… “You will do well.”
“I wish so… .”
Do Yeik frowned.
Pakit Ape was just one of the monsters that appeared in the jungle.
In the future, more difficult and strong monsters will appear.
But are the grandchildren taking that into consideration when allocating their physical strength?
He wanted to ask his grandchildren directly on the screen.
‘Well, you’ll know when the time comes.’
The answer will come in time.
Do Yeik came to that conclusion and tried to see the skills of his other grandchildren.
It was right then.
Kang!
“… what are you talking about.”
It sounds like baseball betting.
Do Yeik looked at the screen to check the identity of the sound.
It was a screen showing Do Gyeon-woo.
Kang!
… Kwasik!
“… .”
Do Gyeon-woo was hitting rocks thrown by Parkit Apes with his sword scabbard.
The stone that was hit like that accurately intercepted the guys on the tree.
They fell headlong to the floor.
“He’s… “What are you doing?”
“… .”
Do Yeik did not understand the situation and asked others.
But no one could answer.
[homer.]
His voice came out on the screen from Do Gyeon-woo’s point of view.
When the family members heard that sound, their faces distorted strangely.
“… .”
I couldn’t believe it even when I saw it with my own eyes.
It might just be a coincidence once.
But Do Gyeon-woo was now realizing that coincidence again and again.
If there was a coincidence that overlapped several times, it was an undoubted necessity.
He is targeting the guys in the trees with his skills.
“her… .”
Accept the situation up to that point.
Do Ye-ik couldn’t help but sigh when he saw Do Gyeon-woo’s antics.
It was a lament with a good meaning.
“He’s a guy with good instincts.”
The surroundings are dark, and the attack is so fast that you won’t be able to see it well.
Do Gyeon-woo was dodging the attack as if it was no big deal, and was firing back at them precisely.
Do Yeik’s eyes shone brightly.
“Go, matriarch, now Seungwoo is with a new monster… .”
“Let’s see Gyeonwoo first.”
“… .”
“Seungwoo, you’ll do well even if you don’t look.”
Do Ye-ik cut Do Beom-jun off and continued to look at Do Gyeon-woo.
With that, the people in the audience could see who the head of household’s attention was directed to.
It wasn’t Do Eun or Do Seung Woo.
It was Do Gyeon-woo.
“Let’s see you guys together. “What kind of behavior will that child show?”
“… .”
Do Yeik shook his shoulders.
At that time, Do Gyeon-woo was showing off his tricks by removing the pockets of the Parkit Apes.
“From what I see, it looks like Gyeonwoo is not interested in the evaluation… . “Is this the time to do that?”
“Beomjun.”
“Yes, matriarch!”
“Do you not see that child’s intentions in your eyes?”
“… .”
“Look at the fruit Gyeonwoo is holding in his hand.”
Dogyeonwoo biting into red fruit.
Do Beom-jun was shocked by that sight and let out a laugh.
Only then did he understand why Do Ye-ik showed interest in Do Gyeon-woo.
Because Do Gyeon-woo was stupid.
“You are such a careless child, eating the fruit without even knowing what it is. Don’t you know that touching something that hasn’t been properly appraised can be dangerous… . How on earth does Sangjun get an education? .”
“Are your eyes decoration?”
“… .”
“Is it that or is it brainless? “Is it because the guy called Sub Lord doesn’t know what Gyeonwoo ate?”
“That… .”
After receiving Do Ye-ik’s scolding, Do Beom-jun suddenly came to his senses.
Only then was he able to realize the identity of the fruit Dogyeonwoo was eating.
“The fruit of vitality… .”
“There was no hesitation in eating the fruit, so it seems Sangjun taught him well.”
“I didn’t teach it, Gyeonwoo…” .”
“There is no need to be humble. “Who would have taught it if not you?”
“… .”
“And it seems like the fruit of vitality wasn’t the only thing you told me about.”
Do Beom-jun’s face is crumpled.
Do Sang-jun, with a nervous expression on his face.
Do Yeik ignored their reactions and raised the corners of his mouth.
[found.]
“I also found the fruit of energy.”
“… .”
On the screen, Do Gyeon-woo was picking green fruits from a tree.
Just like a little while ago.
Do Gyeon-woo immediately brought the fruit to his mouth without even going through the confirmation process.
“Did you immediately think of the existence of fruit when you saw the Pakit Apes? Even hunters don’t think well, but they respond quite well to situations.”
