Episode 37
bang!
“What are you doing here again?”
Lee Min-seong Vice President of the Reaper Guild was so angry that he smashed the table.
-(Hot News) Beast King Crow!
-Crow an unidentified hunter who gained the power of the Beast King!
-Why does Crow wear a crow mask?
Internet articles were all about the Magog Field incident.
dripping.
“Vice President.”
At that moment Secretary Kim came in after knocking and delivered the report.
“It is said that all Hyena Guild members who entered Magog Field were found dead. “They say they have just recovered the last body.”
Kwasik!
At those words Lee Min-seong’s fist clenched and broke the armrest of the chair he was holding.
“I knew it would be like this.”
Lee Min-seong gritted his teeth with a scary expression.
“Now all the pictures fit together.”
The remnants of the Hyena Guild that he took in as his own.
It was only two days ago that the werewolves suddenly disappeared to go to Magog Field.
-I will come and see if there is a factory in Magog.
The excuse was good.
Because he told me to somehow find a new stardust factory.
However Lee Min-seong who did not trust them at all attached several hunters with stealth skills to follow them.
They have a good sense of smell so just watch what they do from as far away as possible.
Then as expected.
Their lies were soon revealed.

In addition to werewolves there were already wild beast hunters roaming around Magog in order to gain the ‘qualification of kings’.
“I think they went to Magog to get the power of the Beast King or something not the Factory in the first place.”
And after gaining that unidentified power wasn’t he trying to escape from Lee Min-seong?
Anyway their goal was ultimately successful.
Because in the end freedom came in the form of ‘death.’
Secretary Kim continued to report.
“We obtained several of their bodies and examined the cause of death and found that they were not killed by demonic beasts but by hunters’ weapons.”
“no. “Not hunters.”
“yes?”
Lee Min-seong chewed his lips and glared at the Internet article with confident eyes.
-Why does Crow wear a crow mask?
“It must have been demons who killed them. “The crow mask is like a symbol of demons.”
As soon as Lee Min-seong saw the words ‘crow mask’ the first thing that came to mind was the demons of the factory.
For some reason demons always wear crow masks on their faces.
Just like ‘Crow’!
“Crow that guy must be the devil. “The demons killed the hyenas and took away the king’s power.”
“Is that something like that?”
“I’m sure. In the first place only those with the Beast Transformation skill were eligible to be kings. But what would demons have to do to get that power?”
“….”
“I don’t know? “Isn’t your head spinning?”
Lee Min-seong clicked his tongue in frustration as Secretary Kim continued to make a puzzled expression.
“It’s my fault for having this idiot as my secretary. “Don’t you remember how hyenas could become werewolves in the first place?”
“It was awakened after drinking the blood of a wolf demon… Ah blood!”
Secretary Kim who was muttering to himself suddenly came to a realization and began to tremble.
Lee Min-seong nodded his eyes flashing.
“Yes it’s blood. Even humans become beasts when they suck blood so what’s worse than being a devil? The demons killed the hyenas and drank their blood. And by meeting the qualifications to be a king he took over the king’s power.”
“and….”
Secretary Kim who heard everything he said looked up at Lee Min-seong’s face with great emotion.
“As expected the Vice President’s insight is…! Mr. Vice President how can you have such a broad perspective? “It’s a picture I never imagined even after seeing the same information.”
“Tsk. What’s so great about this? “If you just look at it it’s fake.”
Lee Min-seong looked a little relieved by Secretary Kim’s sincere flattery.
“Anyway now that we fully understand the situation it is important to use this information. Now that all the hyenas are dead from now on we have to step forward and make a deal with the devils for stardust. “You know?”
“you’re right. Then we must first find the location of the factory and the clue is….”
“Magog.”
Lee Min-seong pointed to the Internet article with extremely sharp and wise eyes.
“In the first place how could demons without beast transformation skills know about the king’s test and go to Magog? There are no coincidences in this world. “It is logical to assume that demons were there from the beginning.”
“Oh I see! “Then I guess it wasn’t a lie when the werewolves went to Magog Field to look for the factory.”

“I guess so.”
“All right. “Then I will take responsibility and search the Magog Field like crazy.”
“okay. And if you’re going to make a deal with the devil who has the power of the Beast King prepare plenty of meat.”
“ah! Well werewolves also ate a lot of meat. “As expected the Vice President is wise!”
“Write.”
It was Secretary Kim who was once again greatly impressed by Lee Min-seong’s wisdom and bowed low.
…Of course the reality was completely different.
“Oh by the way.”
Lastly Lee Min-seong checked the other tasks he had entrusted to Secretary Kim.
“What happened to the doctor?”
“sorry. That hasn’t convinced me yet. “He’s a very kind-hearted guy.”
“Hey…! What on earth do you do for such a high salary? “If we can’t do it with money we have to use force!”
“Oh I understand. “I can do it today…”
After answering Secretary Kim quickly left the vice president’s office.
Seeing that Lee Min-seong gritted his teeth as he put down the cell phone he was holding to throw it at him.
“Anyway it’s my fault for having that idiot as my secretary.”
This is why hunters were a problem.
Because they are ranked by fighting order not by intelligence.
However he was an elite who ran a business even before becoming a hunter.
‘I’m different from other hunters. From birth.’
Lee Min-seong gritted his teeth as he thought of the hunters who boasted about how little magic power they had.

[You have entered the Shadow Dungeon.]
At that time Suho returned to the shadow dungeon with 10 chickens.
The Shadow Dungeon was still quiet as the goblins for daily quests had not yet regenerated.
Perhaps it was because not a day had passed yet.
“wow! “What is this delicious smell?”
“Kuuuung?”
Esil and Gray who smelled chicken quickly approached Suho.
Suho handed over all the chicken he brought to Esil.
“Eat.”
“thank you for this food!”
“Kuuuung?”
“Grey even if you look at me like that yours isn’t there.”
“….”
Gray lowers his head sullenly.
Of course Gray had no part to play this time either.
At that time Rakan’s message arrived in front of Suho.
[The king of beasts the Fang Lord is complaining that he is being so rude about eating.]
Suho protested saying it was unfair.
“Who is being rude? It is said that Gray grows stronger only when he eats what he hunts himself. “Rakan’s fangs said that he couldn’t become strong if he was spoon-fed to his mouth like a mother bird.”
Moreover the corpses of the goblins that had been captured this time were piled up like a mountain here anyway.
Even if he shared that huge amount with Esil Gray wouldn’t have to worry about starving for a while.
[The King of the Beasts the Fang Lord protests that although what he says is true he also feels sorry for Gray who has never eaten chicken in his life.]
“Hmm.”
When I heard those words I suddenly felt like I had become a very bad person.
In the end Suho lost.
“Give a chicken to Essil Gray.”
“ah….”
Esil looks like he lost his country at those words.
In the end it was pathetic to see him handing the lightest chicken box to Gray with trembling hands.
Of course there were still 9 left in Eshil.
However Gray who actually received the chicken box lowered his body with a venomous look in his eyes and exposed his teeth.
“Growl!”
[no. Don’t hunt. I’m not fighting a chicken.]
It was Ber who looked at this as if it were pitiful.
And there was a message from someone who enjoyed watching it from afar.
[The Fang Lord the king of beasts nods in satisfaction saying that he is truly a brave successor.]
“Really. “You paid a lot of money.”
It was Suho who was smiling.
And leaving Esil and Gray alone sitting together and sharing chicken.
This time I decided to check my abilities which had leveled up a lot.
“Status window.”
Then a long status window unfolded in front of him.
[Status Window]

MP: 586/586

Volkan’s Horn
gray ring
“and….”
Suho looked satisfied.
Huge level up and stat up!
A lot of skills were also created.
“It’s worth the effort.”
And this time I checked the newly acquired skills.
[Skill: Smite Lv.1]
active skill
Requires 300 mana.
Adds the ‘Power of the Ruler’ to the body to amplify attack power.
This was the skill I learned while dealing the final blow to the tomb spider Arachne.
“Required mana is 300. It’s somehow strong.”
It was a skill that could not be used twice in a row with the current amount of mana.
‘The power of the ruler.’
Suho decided to use the skill as an experiment.
The order was like this.
First levitate the ruler’s authority into the air.
Overlapping that invisible hand with your own.
Gooooo…!
Then Suho’s hands were covered with black energy.
“oh.”
Suho looked around at his hands which seemed to be wearing large translucent black gauntlets.
‘It is the principle that unites the power of the ruler’s hand and my hand.’
Suddenly the proverb that it is better to meet a blank piece of paper came to mind.
If you hit with two hands instead of hitting with one hand it is a skill that increases the attack power by more than 2 times 3 times or 4 times.
Suho glanced at his mana amount.
[MP: 586]
Considering that the magic power was 10 at level 1 it was an enormous amount of mana.
‘If I just raise my level one more time I’ll be over 600. Then you can use this skill twice in a row.’
It was thrilling just to imagine it.
Suho exposed his teeth and clenched his fists.
And this time I knew for sure.
‘To level up you have to go into a real dungeon.’
His level had already surpassed that of the goblins in the Shadow Dungeon.
In order to become stronger I had to go to places with stronger demons like Magog Field.
To do that…
‘I guess I should raise my hunter level.’
Currently he is an E-class hunter so he can only participate in dungeon raids as a miner or collector at best.
I know that there are a lot of field-type dungeons like this one in Korea so I had to raise my level to increase my chances of entering higher dungeons.
Suho suddenly remembered what the association hunter he met the other day said.
Since it appears that there was an error in the initial measurement I suggest that you visit the association to get a re-measurement.
‘Let’s go.’
Suho decided to visit the association.
