Ranker's Return

“Really? New World?” Ket questioned it . He was quite surprised .  Hyeonu had seen Ket a few times, but he had never seen Ket open his eyes so wide .

“Is it that shocking?”

“New World is a big guild that everyone knows . Anyone who plays Arena would be amazed that you, Alley Leader, actually know New World . ”

"He knows that money ghost?"

A money ghost—it was a term that referred to Jin Sijong in reality .  People called him a money ghost because his talent for collecting money was like a ghost"s .

"Looking at his face, they haven"t met in reality yet . "

Hyeonu was unaware of what Ket was thinking and spoke what he needed to say . “Then the Pioneer Guild should come with me . New World did the main scenario last time, so there is a certain connection with the imperial palace . . . ” Hyeonu didn"t finish his words . Some things were omitted .

 Just as Ket was about to answer, Asu intervened and replied instead, “Then let"s go quickly, Alley Leader . ”

“Yes, then let"s go . ”

The Pioneer Guild and Hyeonu moved to the camp in the Hejin Mountains where the imperial rangers were gathered .  In the meantime, Asu continued to stay by Hyeonu"s side .  It was to say some words .  Then he finally obtained the right timing .

"Now . "

“That . . . Can I add you as a friend?”

Jewel, another guild member, saw this and laughed . “Is that why you"ve been following him around like a dog who needs to go p.o.o.p?”

Hyeonu was bewildered that he was asked to be Asu"s friend . "Are there nine people now?"

Lebron"s words were still embedded deep in Hyeonu"s heart .

“Yes . Please do so . ”

The incident with Asu pa.s.sed, and Hyeonu and the Pioneer Guild arrived at the camp of imperial rangers .  The imperial rangers greeted them .  The rangers recognized Hyeonu and led them to the location of the ranger leader .

“The captain is in here . Then we"ll be going now . ” They were guided by the imperial rangers and arrived at a small tent .

There was a man with an incredible appearance in the tent .  “I received the message . Are you Lebron"s disciple? Who are the people quivering behind you?”

He boasted a large stature and was taller than the 180-centimeter Hyeonu .  The head of the imperial rangers—his name was Garon .

“They are the adventurers who will help uncover the reality of the monster wave . They are powerful adventurers . They can explore the great mountains although their skills are limited . ”

Garon showed dissatisfaction at Hyeonu"s answer .  By Garon"s standards, the Pioneer Guild members brought by Hyeonu were very weak .  Of course, Hyeonu was also weak, but he was Lebron"s disciple .

“Really? Then go and hunt monsters in the great mountains . They aren"t normal monsters . They are monsters with their bodies covered in tattoos . Go and hunt them . ”

[A quest has been created . ]

[Kill the Tattooed Monsters]

[The tattooed monsters are created by forces that threaten the empire . Kill them to reduce the influence of these forces .

Rating: MS

Conditions: Kill the Tattooed Monsters 0/???

Rewards: Experience, imperial contribution . ]

“I got a quest . It has a main scenario rating,” Ket whispered to Hyeonu .

“I received it as well . I guess it is given before the script of the scenario continues,” Hyeonu replied .

Then he politely said goodbye to Garon .  Reputation management had to be done as usual . This was how unexpected opportunities could come at any time .

“Then we will go . We"ll see you again after hunting the monsters . ” Garon waved his hand like he already knew it .

Hyeonu and the Pioneer Guild left the way they entered .

“Then we"ll split up here . From now on, it depends on how you act and how lucky you are . ” Hyeonu"s words were simple .  Break through the main scenario with crazy skills or solve the main scenario with great luck .  It was irrelevant to him what method they used .

“How interesting . The main scenario . . . ” Ket didn"t regret accepting Hyeonu"s offer .  He thought it was a very good opportunity .

"There is no place I want to go lately . "

“I"m very grateful for this . I"ll definitely call you next time, even if it isn"t the main scenario . ”

The Pioneer Guild members left the ranger camp .

Hyeonu, the man in the dark blue coat, raced through the Hejin Mountains .  His eyes were on a stone golem with tattoos all over its body .

Thump!

It was an expressionless stone golem, but urgency could be felt from its actions .  The stone golem was moving to escape .  However, during a short battle with Hyeonu, all parts of its body got broken, and now the stone golem couldn"t escape from him .  The sword energy that stretched out from Hyeonu"s sword collided with the body of the stone golem, shattering it beyond recognition .

"This is the problem with golems . "

It was boring .  Unlike creatures, the golems didn"t have buffs, and there wasn"t the unique feeling of piercing flesh .  It wasn"t fun, and hunting took a long time .  

A ray of light appeared around Hyeonu .  It was a sign of leveling up .

[The enhanced stone golem has been killed . ]

[Experience has been acquired . ]

[You have leveled up . ]

[All health and magic power have been restored . ]

[Kill the Tattooed Monsters 23/???]

Hyeonu checked his status window .  Now that he had leveled up, he had to distribute his stat points .

[Status Window]

Remaining stat points: 5

Retained Attributes: Dark]

"Level 137 . "

This was a number that proved Hyeonu spent most of his time in Arena .

"I am chasing them quickly . "

Hyeonu had gained 137 levels during the same amount of time rankers used to gain 20 to 30 levels .  However, that was it .  Unlike before, Hyeonu wasn"t pleased or impressed .

"What happens from now on is more important . "

Hyeonu cleared his status window and opened his skills window .  The skills window had been neatly arranged .  There was no detailed description, only the skill name and ranking .

[Weapons Mastery (B-)]

[Master of Combat (C+)]

[You and I in One Shot! (C+)]

[Magic Power Control (C+)]

[Mysterious Sky Demonic Art (1 star)]

There were eight pa.s.sive skills and five immediately activated skills—13 in total .

"It isn"t lacking or excessive . "

The number of immediate use skills might be insufficient, but there were many sustainable skills that surpa.s.sed them .

“I also have Tang-E, so there are many . ”

Those weren"t all of them .  Hyeonu still had Tang-E—a unique pet who had many skills .  Considering Tang-E, Hyeonu wasn"t lacking in skills as compared to other rankers .  This was even compared to Rain who was first in the rankings .  

“Is it already this time?” Hyeonu realized that it was time to exit Arena .  He ran like crazy .  Very few areas were safe in the Hejin Mountains .  He had to go to a relatively safe area if he didn"t want to be surrounded by monsters the moment he connected to Arena the next time .

Hyeonu turned on his laptop and checked his mail out of habit .

“The video of hunting Crasul . . . Here it is . ”

Ellis had signed a contract with Nike, so Hyeonu"s personal video editing was pushed back a little .  To be exact, Hyeonu had too many videos .  During the week, there had been five videos that Hyeonu sent to Ellis .  This meant that Hyeonu played Arena in a nonstop manner .

“Okay . The upload is over . Let"s see the reactions . ”

Hyeonu observed his channel closely in real time for the first time in a while .  It was the first time he saw the responses in real time apart from the early days when Alley Leader"s channel was first opened .

-Kuk . . . I"m wetting my pants again today .

-It shows that life is meant to be lived alone .

-How to get that cla.s.s? I wish he would share it . It looks really good .

-These aren"t the movements of a human . Really the G.o.d of battle . Do you admit it? I really admit it .

The responses were very good .  It was beyond friendly admiration and closer to praise .  A smile flashed on Hyeonu"s face .  No one disliked praise .  Then an un.o.btrusive comment caught Hyeonu"s eyes .

"What?"

-It is just the power of his items . He also has a rare cla.s.s, so it is the power of his cla.s.s . With those specs, I would be able to kill it alone . What"s so good about this? Honestly, if I had Alley Leader"s character, I would also dominate in PvP and solo raid boss monsters .

“The power of my items? The power of my cla.s.s? This jerk!!”

Hyeonu was furious .  How much effort did he put into getting these items and gaining these skills?

"You wouldn"t have acquired anything if it were you . "

He didn"t want to be belittled by someone who knew nothing .  However, this anger was only momentary .

“If he had said it in front of me, I would"ve done a character deletion bet right away . . . ”

This was his channel, so he would do payback differently .  Hyeonu smiled widely .  It was a really gloomy smile .  Hyeonu clicked his mouse .

-African Eagle has been blacklisted .

“Don"t even think about watching my videos in the future . ”

Now the owner of that comment wouldn"t be able to see all the videos on the World Alley Leader channel using his account .  People couldn"t watch videos in World without logging in .  Now the owner of African Eagle would have to borrow his acquaintance"s ID to watch Hyeonu"s videos .

“Just wait until you get caught . It will be very good . ”

-You have been blacklisted by the channel"s administrator . You can no longer watch videos from this channel .

“Uwahh!” The owner of World"s African Eagle yelled at the message window in front of him .

"Son of a b.i.t.c.h, blacklisting me just because I said some words?"

The more he thought about it, the more unfair he felt and the angrier he became .  Ultimately unable to overcome his anger, he banged on his keyboard .

“Hey, what"s going on? What happened?”

Other people heard the sound and gathered in his room .

“Hanbaek, did something happen? What is it?”

“Hyung, who were you swearing at?”

That"s right .  African Eagle—it was the World ID of Jung Hanbaek .

“No . Nothing . I was just excited for a moment . You don"t have to worry about it . I"m sorry for making a fuss during the break . ” Jung Hanbaek bowed toward the JT Telecom players who had flocked to his room .

He was especially sorry for his roommate, Yoo Bin .

"Ah .  Everyone wasn"t playing the game today . "

Of course, Jung Hanbaek"s words didn"t contain any sincerity .

"Alley Leader, this jerk . The next time we meet, I"ll kill you . I"m going to kill you . "

“Please go back to what you were doing . I"m sorry . ” Jung Hanbaek bowed his head .  The more he did this, the angrier he became at Alley Leader .  Without knowing it, Hyeonu had carried out a small act of revenge on Jung Hanbaek .
