Chapter 226 – Civilian Sword and Civilian Shield
“It’s nonsense. No matter how much you call yourself a Hunter, isn’t Baek Taeyang a student after all?”
“That’s right. It’s too dangerous to go alone.”
“But if the team leaders follow… Who’s in command here?”
First-class hunters prioritize honor over money? Of course that is true.
But that was only possible because there was a guarantee that he would never die.
Everyone knew that there was no use in dying and increasing your reputation.
Therefore, it was a rule to treat all injuries when moving while holding a monster.
Even the smallest wound can spread to a large extent and lead to death.
“And it is dangerous if time delays further here.
It would be crazy to leave the injured alone, unlike gates, monsters respawn in dungeons.
In other words, no matter how many rooms you clear, you have to fight again after a while.
Of course, it wasn’t as strong or numerous as before, but it wasn’t a level where the wounded without a commander could easily fight.
But it doesn’t make sense for only one of the team leaders to follow, and it’s impossible to take care of it delicately when you’re not even on your own team.
Therefore, it was essential that the two team leaders remain here.
“Taemin’s injuries are minor, so you just need to leave the room behind him to keep the room open.”
“Yes, I understand.”
“Kim Min-soo, will you come with me?”
“You’ve always been Kim Min-soo and Kim Min-soo, but I’m not that kind of person. I’m a black sword…”
“Are you going to follow me?”
“…It doesn’t matter.”
Of course it doesn’t matter.
And Kim Min-soo had no prestigious family to refuse.
With a brush sword in my hand, how could Ji refuse?
It was very easy to roll and eat because I had been blatantly staring at ‘my brush sword’ from earlier.
“…Okay. If you’re in danger, you’ll have to come this way.”
“Yep.”
When I quickly summoned Kang Tae-min and Kim Min-soo, Min-jun Lee and Sang-hyeok Nam nodded inevitably.
No matter how much I thought about it, this was the only best decision right now.
Even if you think that you are entrusting the cadet with too heavy a burden, he must have convinced you because he showed you something.
‘Are there at least four left?’
A dungeon is a maze-like way to advance through various spaces to find a boss room.
Since I cleared the first space I entered, I had to break through at least four more rooms to go to the boss.
“Then I’ll clear it and come back.”
“Yes. I hope you have a good trip.”
We left the room with the enthusiastic support of the Hunter team.
‘It’ll be a bit more comfortable now.’
Now that I don’t have to notice the people around me, it’s easier to rampage.

“Queaeaeaek!”
“Mr. Taeyang! Back! Back!”
“Black thunderbolt.”
“Queaeaeaek!”
What I felt while attacking the spider marsh was that the brush sword had really deceptive performance.
[Activate deep snow! Analyze the brush sword.]
=============================
[Brush Sword] – Owner Baek Tae-yang [Description changes as the narrative changes.]
A mysterious sword that is said to have been made by an old scholar and a hermit.
Each time you swing, a line of ink is created, and a new effect is created by giving the line of fire to the line.
However, it cannot create more than its own strength and cannot escape the limits of its weapons.
=============================
To put it simply, it’s not too fraudulent, and it’s okay to use it in moderation. Something like this
In fact, if you look closely, even if you say it’s a black thunderbolt, it’s just a thunderbolt in shape, but it’s not really electricity.
Instead, it just looks like it was electrocuted as if it was really struck by lightning with strong physical force.
It was said that the shape could be copied, but in the end it was no different from an empty shell.
‘Of course, that alone has infinite uses.’
Just by simply swinging the sword, there is a possibility of feeding additional hits.
Moreover, since the attack was possible irregularly, the fraudulent performance remained unchanged.
Dragon holding something like this! Tiger! Kim Min-soo, who was only doing this, just looked so stupid.
‘It’s the same in classic masterpieces… It’s the same now… Is it because my intelligence is low?’
Why can’t you use the basic benefits properly?
Of course, it’s true that I was able to come this far because I couldn’t use it.
Common sense did not understand.
“How long do I have to run away! And that’s my sword!”
“Give it up because it’s my sword now.”
“Aaaaagh!”
The reason why I felt that only Kim Min-soo and Kang Tae-min were enough to clear the dungeon.
It was because he completely trusted Minsu’s insane tanking power.
A body that recovers well without dying even if it is beaten to death, and a mental that runs the end of self-justification.
Armed with these two things, Kim Min-soo had the appearance of a very ideal tanker.
‘I’m sure he thinks he’s a super-dealer anyway.’
That’s bullshit, and Minsu’s true value is revealed when he is tanking.
As the Spider Marsh is a dungeon where monsters appear according to the number of people, a really small number of monsters appeared when there were three of them.
And what if Minsu is mobbed to block the variables of those monsters?
“Black Thunder”
“Kueeaek!”
I can easily subdue monsters just by swinging my sword.
Of course, unlike the first time, I needed several cuts this time, but it was fine.
There was nothing to worry about because there was an undying tank.
‘I use the sword I stole from Minsu, and I use Minsu as my shield.’
These were my new weapons, the brush sword and Minsu meat shield.
Kang Tae-min made him take a position outside the front line.
You brought a nobleman with no fighting skills, so you have to take responsibility.
“Kieeaek!”
“It’s a bit tight.
No matter how many meat shields there were, the spider marsh was not a place to be taken lightly.
I didn’t have any supporters and I didn’t have high natural resilience like Kim Min-soo, so I always had to be nervous.
‘It’s correct to say that every time you clear a room, you get bruises unconditionally.’
It was the first time I had been hurt this much while attacking a dungeon or gate.
It wasn’t for nothing that the hunters said that Mt. Baekdu lived up to its name.
Woo woo woo woo
In the middle of killing a spider with the feeling of walking on thin ice for a long time.
[The holy sword pops out of the small inventory!]
A holy sword suddenly appeared and struck my back with a hard piece of rock.
It wasn’t even a soft knock, it was a level of shock that broke my Minsu’s bone pain.
Being attacked in a defenseless state, I rolled on the floor to avoid the spider’s additional blow.
After that, I corrected my posture, killed the last remaining spider, and turned my body in the direction of the holy sword.
“What?”
Woo woo woo woo
I was so embarrassed that I didn’t say anything.
For the Holy Sword to troll during battle, what the hell did Rubenia have arranged?
‘Did he arrange to kill me or something like that?’
At least he could have been stabbed in the neck by the fangs of a spider and really died.
After the holy sword came out of the inventory, it continued to stand upright while saying ‘uuuuu’.
If he had eyes, he would probably be looking straight at me.
Even the strange gesture of pointing my brush sword with the tip of the sword.
No way.
“Are you jealous that I use a brush sword?”
Her.
I was dumbfounded, so I couldn’t even say anything.
No, he didn’t even move when I begged him to show me his face for a week.
Are you going to hit the owner on the back for using a brush sword and kill him right away?
Have you seen this crazy sword?
‘What kind of holy sword is this?’
I felt like I was scammed by Rubenia.
What should I do if someone scams me by saying that the magic sword is a holy sword?
‘Or maybe it’s because I turned into a demon and picked it out… So it was affected?’
I wanted a refund, exchange or return.
It’s already been caught by the demons and contaminated with demonic energy, so they won’t accept it.
“Seo… Holy sword!”
“Minsu, don’t look at me. I’m not in a good mood right now.”
“…Uh…Yeah, ah, this is not it, I’m a black sword. I don’t know a person named Kim Min-soo.”
“Yes, live like that.”
While the Holy Sword showed a reaction, I had a desire to try this and that.
The dungeon attack was the priority, so I put the holy sword back into my inventory.
The holy sword went in without much resistance, but it seemed like an action based on the confidence that it could come out again at any time.
‘Isn’t I really going to drive a sword like this?’
Hopefully that doesn’t happen, I cleared the remaining rooms step by step.
After the first trolling, the holy sword didn’t stick out any more, as if it had noticed.
That’s how we were able to get to the boss room very smoothly.
‘It should be said that it’s okay…’
When I arrived in front of the boss room, my condition was far from normal.
The arm had half of its skin ripped off, and the leg limped slightly, probably from a bone crack.
If I used Demon Jokhwa, Tyrant, and Chunhyang together, this wouldn’t have happened.
‘Because I don’t know what Kim Min-soo is up to.’
It was still tolerable, but Kang Tae-min was not.
It was a miracle that non-combatants even came this far, so he decided to wait in front of the boss room.
He didn’t force himself to think that he could do it.
“Have a good trip!”
After Kang Tae-min cheered me on, Kim Min-soo and I entered the boss room.
“Baek Taeyang, you may not have known, but I am actually Kim Min-soo.
“Please shut up.”
Can’t you see I’m not in that mood right now?
In the boss room of Spider Marsh, of course, I thought a big spider-like thing would pop out.
I thought there would be a monster with a name like Arachne.
‘What is this again?’
What spreads before your eyes is an erupting volcano and magma dripping from the ceiling.
Flames filling the floor and a man sitting on a throne high enough to pierce the sky.
I felt ominous in the appearance reminiscent of the lord of hell.
‘It won’t be easy.’
================================
Pandemonium :: The Land of Rage is implemented.
[Wrath], One of the Seven Roots of Hell, appears.
================================
Yeah, let’s do it
