Episode 87

Ranked 11th in New Korea Player Rankings.

Also, like Taehyun, he was the first man to be selected for a friendly match.

S-rank player Jang Jin-su was standing in front of the door.

Taehyun opened the door with an unexpected expression.

"What are you doing here?"

"Are you going to stop in the hallway like this and talk?"

With that very confident attitude.

"Please come in."

Taehyun opened the door wide.

As he said, a friendly match is in full swing.

There was nothing good about the national representative showing himself to civilians.

"Excuse me."

Jang Jin-su came into the room smiling as if he had expected it.

"China is amazing. "If it were Seoul, there wouldn't have been many hotels of this standard."

Jang Jin-soo quietly changed the topic.

"You haven't answered my question yet. "What's going on here?"

The corners of Jang Jin-su's mouth rose as he continued to ask questions.

This is because I really like the current situation where Taehyun is in charge.

"Are you on guard?"

"It's an evil world. Like the recent incidents against friendly representatives."

"I am from the same country and team as you."

Taehyun clicked his tongue as he watched him continue to change his mind.

It seemed like Taehyun would have to take the bait first.

"How do you know I'm here? "If you don't answer this time, I have no choice but to ask Guild Leader Yoo Ah-young to conduct a separate investigation."

There is no one that the Nightwalker shakes off without leaving a speck of dust.

Neither Association President Ji Jin-hee nor Guild Director Yoo Ah-young would care about that.

But a representative of his country.

It would be another matter if Taehyun, who has recently become extremely famous, asked for it.

These were words that even Jang Jin-su could not help but feel burdened by.

He raised the white flag first, as if he was disappointed.

"ha… I understand. "I'm going to tell you honestly, so don't look at me with such scary eyes."

"Let's hear the answer and then decide."

"We commissioned information guilds in China and Japan to investigate. "It became clear that Samrodu was what you were targeting, so it wasn't difficult to find the hotel where you were staying."

"I guess it's not enough to just use a pseudonym."

Taehyun said as if it was no big deal.

Anyway, Shanghai is the home ground of Chinese players and players.

It is said that he uses the stealth skill from time to time.

As long as warp gates were used and cameras were spread throughout the continent, it was impossible to completely hide oneself.

"then. "Is it Samrodu that you're after?"

Taehyun shrugged his shoulders in response to Jang Jinsu's question.

It is not denied.

Now, even if the remaining Samrodu hid themselves, their location is obvious.

Because time was running out, I only had to use the skill for one minute.

It was enough time to find out from Tetsu the hideout of the other two Samrodu.

'These guys don't leave their home ground.'

Secret hideout, S-rank mine, numerous connections.

In my memories, they seemed full of confidence in the work they had built in their country.

'In this case, such confidence would lead directly to death.'

Unless you know that Taehyun has a skill that allows him to look into the other person's head.

For them, it was their fate that they had no choice but to be caught in the end.

"so. What does it have to do with my chasing Samrodu and your coming to see me? "I think everyone said let's do our best to earn points."

As if he had anticipated Taehyun's reaction, Jang Jinsu hurriedly said something he had prepared.

"It's simple. The reason why our New Korea team is ranked first in friendly competition. "It's all because of your actions."

"… … ?"

"So I just decided that following you around as one of the representatives of New Korea would be the most efficient way to earn points. Even if you refuse."

Jang Jin-su had already made up his mind.

I could hear the determination in his voice.

'not bad.'

The more secrets there are, the more there are to be careful about.

That's why Taehyun preferred to play alone.

The person you have to deal with this time is Pingu, who is said to have the greatest power among the three road heads.

Considering that she had ties to the Chinese Players' Association, it wouldn't hurt to bring along some 'bait'.

After finishing the calculation, Taehyun handed Jang Jinsu his hand.

The person was with a good expression.

"I guess I hurt you too much before."

"then… ?"

"yes. "We are already in need of a new partner."

"Partner. You, too, are a person with a good ear for conversation. ha ha ha."

Jang Jin-soo, smiling brightly, held Tae-hyeon's hand.

"i look forward to. As a 'partner.'"

A strange smile spread across Taehyun's lips as he waved his joined hands.

* * *

Tokyo, where the fourth day of friendly competition is underway.

The association's building located in the city center.

Among them, a man and a woman were meeting in a separate room that only S-class members could use.

Ryohei Isaka knelt down on one knee and kissed the back of the saint's hand.

"You're late. devil."

"sorry. Taehyun Kim That guy is more meticulous than I thought... ."

"It's an excuse. "You must have achieved something late, right?"

Ryohei Isaka took a deep breath and inhaled the gentle energy emanating from the saint.

He also has the strength of an S-class intermediate player.

However, he is a national power player.

Their energy made breathing difficult just by touching each other.

'That guy was like this too.'

He is the only person who survived after watching Taehyun closely for the past two days, either voluntarily or involuntarily.

That's why I was able to say it with confidence.

"Kim Taehyun… "That guy has gained the power of a national power."

The saint responded to the demon's words.

The energy she was giving off disappeared like a lie.

"Wow, that seems worth listening to."

When the saintess nodded, Ryohei Isaka's full report began.

Things I saw, heard, and confirmed over the past two days.

It's hard to believe that Taehyun did most of this on his own.

What all those facts indicate is.

In the end, a new national power class was born in New Korea.

"So, Kim Tae-hyun has the power of a national power, and he has the skill to read the other person's mind?"

"That's right."

"And the reason you're alive even after your pact with me was discovered is because he saved your life?"

"… That's right."

Ryohei Isaka answered, not daring to meet the saintess's eyes.

"That's interesting. He had the guts to know that I was targeting him. Could it be that Xu Xin's disappearance has something to do with it?"

Masahiko Kimura. And Xu Xin.

The saint was already convinced before she even heard the answer.

Just as China is putting pressure on Japan by hunting down representatives of Taiwan and Hong Kong.

Taehyun is also hunting down and threatening those who reveal this to him.

This is against Japan and China, which are assessed to be stronger than New Korea.

"… "One thing is certain: he has now moved to capture the Samrodu of New Korea."

"Triad… You picked an interesting prey. "Is he really planning to deal with all three rods?"

"Well, I know that too… ."

Ryohei Isaka stuttered as the saintess kept asking questions.

"Hmm~"

The saint was lying down on the bed on one side, sobbing.

I tried to organize the situation in my head.

New Korea, Japan and China participated in a friendly match.

As there are many notable players in Asia, it is also a country where many notable players are born.

Although there are times when they engage in joint annihilation battles, they keep each other in check.

so that.

Friendly matches, without the need to consider extraterritoriality and warp gate restrictions, were also the best place to test one's skills.

Just like Taehyun now.

'It's really fun.'

An attitude and guts beyond one's age.

There's a smile that seems to look into one's inner self.

That part is interesting, but I don't like it.

"Did you say you had an appointment with him tomorrow?"

"yes. Please stay with Tsurara until we contact you again... ."

The saint jumped up from the bed.

"Hehehe. "I mean tomorrow."

"… … ?"

"Did you say Kim Tae-hyun's next target is the Samrodu of New Korea?"

"yes… I definitely said that... ."

"It wouldn't be polite to call someone who is busy. "I will go there myself."

"If so, when…" ."

"There is a saying that you should remove the horns of an ox as soon as possible. Ah, it's a proverb from New Korea that I just mentioned."

Ryohei Isaka made an expression as if asking what he was saying.

"You'll know when you see."

The saint smiled kindly.

licking.

I licked my tongue.

* * *

At that time, the fourth day of the friendly match was in full swing.

The two men who attacked the Chinese branch of the Triad were in battle with dozens of demons.

"What a guy… Ugh… !!"

Without even having time for the other person to finish speaking.

Quang.

Taehyun's fist broke the opponent's tonfa and hit him in the face.

The demon's body flew straight into the wall and crashed down.

'At this level, even most national power companies won't be able to compete.'

A strength stat of 30 obtained by feasting on Xu Xin's corpse.

Taehyun was thinking back to the time before and after the war and realizing how much stronger he had become.

Although we lost Talisman and Aslan.

That was why I did not seek out weapons ahead of a new battle.

Tiring.

[Strengthens skill Stone Skin (B). Magic power consumption accelerates.]

Druddudduddduk.

'Stone Skin' is activated with a magical power exceeding 200.

Normally, the body would break down because it could not withstand the magic power that strengthens it.

'I'm different.'

The stamina stat, which exceeded 180, was able to withstand magical power and raise the skill's potential to its limit.

In addition, the fist is swung with a strength exceeding 150.

Quang.

"Kwaaak!!"

"Don't block, avoid!!"

They were destroying the demons' weapons and bodies regardless.

The demons who are screaming and rolling around on the floor are those who have reached S rank through illegal enhancement.

It was a so-called fake S-grade mine.

This skill is far below that of the average S-rank player or mine.

In their eyes, it was natural that Taehyun was seen as a person with incredible strength.

'Still, there are too many numbers.'

Jang Jin-su is suddenly surrounded by twenty demons.

Taehyun clicked his tongue while looking at him.

He is a national representative of New Korea.

That kind of person was struggling with humane tactics.

It was a situation that arose not because he, who was ranked 11th in New Korea, was weak, but because the combination of horsemen was good.

Confidence that comes from numerical superiority.

That confidence was the driving force that made them constantly push forward despite the large skill gap.

A moment when the opponent gets tired.

The hope of not missing the opportunity and biting into it.

The same was true for the thirty demons surrounding Taehyun.

'My body has fully relaxed. 'Let's sort it out little by little.'

Tiring.

[Activates the skill Knight King's Awe (B). Expand your scope. The target is not specified.]

Kugugugugugugung.

"Ugh… !!"

"skill… ?!!"

dump. dump. dump.

The demons groaned and fell to their knees at the suddenly activated skill.

Because Taehyun was only using 'Stone Skin' until a little while ago.

The demons who were waiting for their stamina to run out were unable to respond properly.

'The spirit of the knight king' activated with 200 magical power.

There was no way the fake S-class demons could endure it.

In less than three seconds, dozens of demons were all on their knees and groaning.

and.

"what. "What are you doing there?"

"… … ."

Taehyun's eyes looked around.

I encountered Jang Jin-su, who was kneeling with the demons.
