Chapter 33 Boss Monster. =========================================================================

Kim Han-byeol did not turn his eyes on me until the end. Her eyes told me to wake up quickly and run away, but I didn’t intend to.

Even if the group misunderstood, they must have made it strong.

It wasn’t long before I saw everyone except me transmitting to Warp Gate flashing blue.

Did he go?

It’s gone, right?

It’s gone.

Before I know it, there are a lot of black shadows around me. Boss Monster was groaning at me, wondering if it didn’t matter if he’d missed his prey. I put my hands on the ground and slowly raised myself. After a long time, I felt uncomfortable all over. When I twisted my body for a moment and relaxed my back, I heard a crackling sound of my joints twisting.

The crossbow, which had been used well so far, fell to the ground while glancing at it. It was no longer necessary. The crossbow rolled around the dirt floor with a thud. I stepped on the crossbow without hesitation.

Scrap!

When I saw the crossbow broke in half, I reached out to the place where the group dropped my luggage. When he raised his mana and expressed the gravestone of the empty water, the long sword, which Ahn Hyun had dropped, swung around and fell into my hands.

And, finally, I got my hands on a long sword.

One of the things that was unfamiliar throughout the ceremony was that there was no knife in the hand. In Hall Plain, I regarded the knife as my life. When I was sleeping, eating, and even washing, I kept a knife next to me. Maybe that’s why I felt like I was taken away from my comrades when I handed the knife to Anhyun.

It’s all over now. You can go back to Hallplane. How much I wanted this moment to come. How much I longed to go back in my mind. The fact that it was once considered a dream became a reality by getting a zero code, and there was only one step left until that reality. I felt my heart beating fast.

My passionate feelings seemed to respond to the heart-sleeping compassion. It felt like my heart was pounding violently and blood was burning hot all over my body. The stopped breathing, the dead heart began to burn violently again. The moment just before the beginning of a new long war.

Whoops!

I can hear the boss monster howling. I stared quietly at the sword in my hand before I cut him. I had the ability to surpass myself in the past, but there was no guarantee that I was the best. But there is no fear. Even if you fall into the abyss again, even if you get hurt again, you’re determined not to give up. I raised my sword without a single worry and aimed at Boss Monster.

The moment I truly stepped on the sword, all the air surrounding me changed.

Special ability new inspection day (Rank EX) is triggered. As soon as you lift a sword, you get a positive correction for every action that uses it. With years of experience, numerous achievements and job compensation, you get 2 rank up correction.』

The potential Baek Byeong-jeon (rank A+) is triggered. It’s already beyond the limit for anyone who handles close-range weapons. As far as close combat is concerned, there is no backlog. With years of experience and job correction, you get 1 rank up correction.』

I used to be a Sword Master, now a Sword Specialist. He has sword-related abilities and has a sword-related job. As such, the difference in power was as far as the sky and the earth when the sword was not lifted. Before it was just a shady cloud, now I’m sure <I'll kill you.A willful, stormy murder surrounded his surroundings.

To my eyes now, he seemed so insignificant, as if he were a worm. As I took a step forward, Boss Monster stepped back. It's inevitable. No matter how clever it may be, wild instincts are alive as monsters. Recognizing that there is a wide gap between classes, it is safe to say that he has already lost his war spirit.

The basis of my swordmanship is based on the origin of Taeguk. Rather than overpowering with overwhelming power, there were many techniques that reverse my power and the other person's power. It was the only way for me, who lacked muscle compared to top-tier users. To explain in more detail, the principles of electrical healing (name for tenderness) and eu-extreme strength (winner of softness) are used, and the key is to subdue movement with calmness.

I slowly stretched the sword down. I was going to attack him first as I couldn't expect him to attack first now. The current posture was a kind of preparation right before I started doing my own footsword. Of course I know it can seem defenseless.

As such, however, the opponent could not predict in which direction my first sword would take the offensive. If the sword is wielded at lightning speed in this state, the opponent often gets beaten before reading the sword path or gives up the initiative in the offensive.

I saw the boss monster shivering in front of my eyes and immediately stabbed him.

In time.

My sword tore through the air and made its way toward him.

*

"It was a great footsword. User Kim Soohyun. Congratulations on the return of the rite of passage. I certify that this user has qualified to enter the Hallplane at 16:42:27 on Day 6."

I cut the boss monster in half with one knife. After that, after returning to the summoning room, Seraf said the first words to me. She was still looking at me quietly, her shining wings on the small altar. I saw it again in less than a week, but I felt like I hadn't seen it in a long time. I nodded roughly and sank down.

"What about the kids?"

This is a groundless question, but the rite of passage is different from Hallplane. It is an unlimited space for users to watch. I'm sure you've seen my play, so of course you've seen the users who acted like me.

"It is not authorized to inform other users of their information."

"I'm not curious about size three. I can just tell you if I got home safely. That's very sensitive."

Seraf, who was listening to me, sighed and soon replied in a calm voice.

"Users Ahn Hyun, Ahn Sol, Lee Yoo-jung and Kim Han-byul were normally sent to the summoning room. I'm currently on standby with dedicated angels."

"I see. Half a day's training before going into Hallplane?"

"The education doesn't take that long. However, we need to open up jobs and abilities that fit the characteristics of users. User Kim Soo-hyun has done it under her leadership, but I hope you don't identify with other users."

At this word, I shut my mouth. Having endured seven days in the past, I was able to learn basic knowledge of Hallplane and enter after setting it up. The time it took then felt like half a day.

"Transferring all users to Hallplane is done in batches. Therefore, we need to wait for qualified users at the end of the seventh day of the rite of passage."

"Then I'll see you now….”

"Never."

It wasn't good news for me because I couldn't wait to enter. The boss monster was on purpose to get rid of it quickly. I asked just in case, but I grumbled with a stiff face when I saw Seraph cutting my words before I heard it all.

"That means you're supposed to be here for almost a day and a half. You want me to just wait? Do you want to go on a pair of course.

Despite my irritating voice, Seraph answered clearly.

"I'll do it if you want. We're providing more detailed Hallplane information to users who pass early."

"I don't need it."

"Then, would you like to be a partner?"

"Whoa. No. Let's just talk."

I shook my head as I saw Seraph asking seriously. He was an angel whose jokes didn't work. Since this has happened, I decided to ask some questions during the rite of passage. Of course, the way you talk is full of sibigos. Seraf tilted his head and nodded slightly at my suggestion.

"As I played the rite of passage, did you guys think of balance?”

"Yes."

Seraph answers in short sentences.

"…Let's say it's a race and a fall in the middle of the forest. What kind of Nolbu symbol is Boss Monster at the summons? It's really not a rite of passage. This way, prospective users can't pass.”

"Is there a problem?"

"If it weren't for me at the end, our party would have been wiped out. I just don't understand why you let that monster loose."

In my words, Seraf opened his mouth without hesitation.

"The rite of passage is automatically balanced to the level of users who participate in each round. Of course, this episode was especially done except for the user Kim Soo-hyun. Anyway, this year, there were a lot of potential users in five hands."

"I don't understand Boss Monster no matter how much. How can we catch a boss monster when we can't even use mana?"

"It's impossible to catch. There's a separate strategy. The Boss Monster is randomly summoned between 200 and 300 meters away from Warp Gate. It's impossible to face it alone, and with at least five people, at least one person can reach the Warp Gate."

I could hear what Seraf was saying right away.

"…that means you're running away with up to four bait."

"That's correct."

I'm at a loss for words. On the one hand, however, I could see why the boss monster was placed near the warp gate. Passing users should experience the sadness of losing their co-workers. It seems that he intended to start with a similar shock from the beginning, as such things are common in Hall Plain.

I thought it was bad taste, but I had nothing to say. The reason why I came back is because I couldn't overcome the loss similar to the above. I sighed inside and decided to change the subject, but Seraf's mouth opened first.

"I admit it was somewhat difficult. For your information, the first four who arrived at the same time were given a small gold point reward."

"…Oh? Then no one would have passed before us. What about me?

"User Kim Soo-hyun passed in fifth place. The aforementioned four are tied for first place. As compensation, we will pay you 2,500 gold points each."

Oh, that's good news. The initial 2,500 points are very helpful. Gold points, available in user-only stores, are extremely useful in the early stages. I opened my mouth with sparkling eyes.

"Oh. Gold point. Give it to me, too."

"Unfortunately, it's only for the first place. Originally, 10,000 points are paid to one person, but unfortunately, there are four people this time, so I had to divide them into quarters. User Kim Soo-hyun is not applicable."

Is that so? I smacked my lips and shook my head with disappointed. 2,500 points converted to Hall Plain Gold, so there was no need for money in the beginning. Or you can buy weapons for beginners. Seraf talked to me with a face that he didn't understand if I had read that tone.

"User Kim Soo-hyun. I think you're quite disappointed. It's only 2,500 points."

"The gold point doesn't come from digging.”

"That's true. However, the gold point that the user Kim Soo-hyun currently has is exactly 3,784,720 points. I don't think we should dwell on 2,500 points."

…what?
