The Interesting Choice
[A new King's Path has become available to you.]
1. King of Illusions
2. King of Deceptions
3. King of Sweets
4. Handsome King
5. Harem King
6. King of Flames and Destruction
7. King of Judgement And Punishment
All of the options were ok but…
'What's up with the fifth one?' Haru resisted the urge to sigh again as he wondered whose joke this was, But this wasn't only the option that was out of place.
8. The Emperor
'This one is weird as well,' Haru wondered, why was this one like this when the other options were 'King'?
So now he felt like a kid standing in front of a big red button with the words 'Do Not Push', and as Haru was he of course...
"He chose the interesting one," Hae-in giggled.
'I wonder what type of Attribute Haru got,' Dok-ja knew that the attribute would enhance one of the skills held by the user, now in Haru's case it would be fine as long as it doesn't enhance those two skills.
Because if it did, things would get a bit out of hand.
"I give up," Hee-won seemed to have just accepted her fate at this point.
And just as Haru was about to retort….
A Dokkaebi appeared in the sky once again…
[Oh My, It is so peaceful outside here, the situation inside was more colorful.] It was the same intermediate Dokkaebi as before.
He was observing all of the incarnations outside, and didn't take a genius to figure out that he wasn't happy with the situation here. But he wasn't alone who was dissatisfied.
[That's why I've brought good news. From now on, the second qualification test will begin!]
[King's Qualification]
1. The owner of the throne should be braver than anyone else.
–The Absolute Throne never wants a 'weak king'. To challenge the throne, you must own at least a black flag.
2. He who dreams of the throne must desire it.
–The number of 'kings' that can challenge the throne is decided. In order to gain the right to challenge it, you must remove the other kings around you.
[Please note that only Seven Kings can challenge the final qualification of the Absolute Throne. The remaining number is… let's see.]
[Number of kings remaining: 18.]
[I'll let you know that Eleven Kings are inside the Dungeon in front of you, Maybe they are already fighting or maybe they are making an alliance? What you want to do here is up to you.] Saying that he vanished once again with a smirk, he was sure this would cause more rifts to form, which would lead to more death and excitement.
He knew this situation had put the two groups in front of the Dungeon in a difficult situation, there were too many things for them to consider right now.
'Will it start now?' Dok-ja looked around at the people around him, this is the moment when his chance will arrive
"Cutting the numbers less than, they sure are cruel," Hae-in folded her arms and shook her head.
"That's how it has been from the start," Kanae's mood seemed to have worsened and everyone could see it, she wasn't one to hide her frown at least.
So, the question now was, how do they handle it? No matter what they do people are going to die in big numbers.
Kanae's group was waiting for her order as they were going to follow it regardless. Some of these members had been with her since the scenarios broke out which is why they had enough trust in her.
"This is troubling we did make a lot of effort into forming alliances with some of the other Kings, and now it is all for nothing," Hae-in also shook her head, because of Kanae their group wasn't one which just took over others, they had also made some alliances when they encountered liked minded people.
But this second condition just threw a wrench in all of this, not that they hadn't thought this would happen. But still, Kanae hoped it would be resolved without the loss of too many lives.
Kanae looked at the museum building in front of her and a blue panel came in front of her.
[Hidden Scenario – Artifact Trials]
Category: Hidden
Difficulty: F ~ A+
Clear Conditions: Clear the right 'artifact dungeon' with the proper personnel.
Time Limit: None
Compensation: 500 ~ 5,000 coins
Failure: Death
This dungeon was the reason they had come to wait in front of this Museum building, and also one of the reasons all of the Kings rushed inside, but obviously the main reason was the weapon Four Yin Demon Decapitator that can be only obtained in this dungeon.
But Haru and Kanae weren't interested in that, not even a little.
"We need to go in and deal with the Kings," Kanae was ready to enter the dungeon and handle the matter of the second qualification.
She didn't need to kill the kings, because there were other ways to handle them without causing any loss of life. And that was to take their flags.
"Should we?" Haru looked at his group and they were fully ready.
'No, It is about to start any minute now,' And just like Dok-ja had thought it happened.
"Kanae look at the scenario window again," Hae-in said in a hurry.
"What?" Kanae was shocked after she checked out the number of kings that were left.
[Number of kings remaining: 14.]
"We need to go in now! someone is going on a killing spree," Kanae was ready to jump into the dungeon but was stopped by Haru.
"We don't know what the situation inside is, going in right now can be dangerous," Haru's eyes spoke more words than his mouth at this instant and Kanae understood.
'If it is a trap that requires us to reveal more power than what is allowed at this point, it would do more harm to us even if we win in the end,' Hae-in thought while being a little thankful that this happened when Haru was around, otherwise, she would've had a difficult time convincing Kanae.
[Several Constellations of the 'Pure Good Alliance' are relieved.]
[1000 coins have been sponsored.]
Most of the constellations also didn't want to see Kanae rush into the dungeon only to fall into the trap of whoever set it. Because the person who set this up didn't seem like the type to care about who came in, everyone will die.
'Don't tell me Jung-hyuk is inside the dungeon?' Dok-ja could only think of two people in Seoul Dome who were capable of such carnage, one of them was standing near him so it has to be the other one.
"Seems like the 'Legendary Sword' was a trap, Such clichéd development." Hae-in already knew that it was a trap a while back, reading web novels did come in handy in these situations.
'True but also not true,' Dok-ja didn't want to comment on that, but he was kind of happy to meet someone who seemed to share a hobby with him.
But leaving that aside, Dok-ja had made a Trap but it wasn't to kill the Kings. Someone else was using this as an opportunity, if it wasn't Jung-hyuk going on a rampage.
Four Kings were gone and not even a minute had passed, but sadly it didn't stop there.
[Number of kings remaining: 11]
[Number of kings remaining: 9]
It kept on sharply decreasing and stopped when there were only 8 Kings left.
"Damn it, things just don't go smoothly, do they?" Hee-won could only mutter these words since just like the others she was shocked by the sudden turn of events.
They all had to get ready to face whatever was about to come out of the dungeon, because it surely wasn't going to talk with them.
"Everyone get into formation three," A buffed man with tanned skin that looked like he was in his thirties shouted and Kanae's group, he was a captain in the Republic of Korea Army.
He along with his squad was saved by Kanae during the second scenario while they were helping civilians evacuate to the subway station, and they had joined her group since then.
Even in the current group that came with Kanae more than half of the people in it were from the military squad.
Because of that they used their knowledge to train other members of the group and were able to make formations to combat Monsters or other groups that attacked them.
Currently, they were in a defensive formation after they moved away from the entrance since they didn't know what was going to come out of the dungeon.
"Archers get ready," Kanae ordered and the archers in the back pulled their bows ready to attack.
It was here that Dok-ja noticed someone by checking their Attribute Window.
