Solo Leveling: Ragnarok – 67

Episode 67
“Lee Min-seong you bastard….”
For some reason they only kidnapped the Hunters of the Reaper Guild instead of killing them!
Lim Tae-gyu was angry to the very end.
When I remembered Lee Min-seong’s usual behavior I realized what the bastard wanted to do.
He was always working hard to increase his standing within the Shinigami guild.
To become higher than even my friend and guild leader!
‘I don’t know what kind of skills you paid for but did you want to make our children like this and attract them as your subordinates? ‘Why on earth are you doing this for?’
Looking at the mutants who had already lost even their human appearance Lim Tae-gyu gritted his teeth and pulled the bowstring.
Swaaaa-!
A magic arrow was created along with a blue air current in the S-class weapon ‘Reaper’s Bow’.
One two three four.
Shoo shoo shoo!
A total of five magic arrows flew in different orbits and pierced the scattered bodies of the mutants.
Screams came out from the mouths of the mutants who had once been in the same guild but had now become monsters.
For some reason Tae-gyu Lim’s screams sounded like painful cries.
“Sooooo…!”
However the mutants moved even with Lim Tae-gyu’s arrows stuck in their bodies.
Lim Tae-gyu’s expression hardened due to his persistent stamina.
Perhaps because they were advanced hunters before becoming mutants their physical abilities were considerable.
Moreover since he was wearing the same armor he was wearing when he was kidnapped it seemed impossible to kill him with one or two arrows.
Lim Tae-gyu gritted his teeth and looked back at the healthy guild members he had brought.
They were hesitant to attack as their colleagues with whom they had laughed and chatted just a few days ago had turned into demonic beasts.
Lim Tae-gyu pulled the bow string again and shouted.
“Don’t hesitate! Those mutants are not people! “They are no longer the guys we used to know!”
“Yes yes!”

“Zombification has already progressed so hitting the heart is useless! “Match the legs slow down the movement and cut off the limbs!”
“…!”
In response to this extremely cruel yet firm order the guild members gritted their teeth and took up their weapons.
Making cool-headed decisions even in situations like this was the true mark of Lim Tae-gyu the S-class hunter who has led the Reaper Guild so far.
And the Shinigami guild members who came to their senses from his thunderous shout began to attack the mutants in earnest.
“Is this the Reaper Guild?…”
Association hunters who were rescuing citizens were amazed by their performance.
Even though there have been many controversies including the Vice President Risk this time… the Reaper Guild is still the Reaper Guild.
One of Korea’s top guilds.
Its power was most clearly revealed during an emergency situation like this.
“Sooooo…!”
But the problem is that the mutants were also members of the Shinigami Guild.
Although they lost their reason and became demon beasts the experiences engraved on their bodies did not disappear.
“The mutants are spreading out! Chase!”
The mutants dispersed and hid inside the building to avoid the Reaper Guild’s attack.
Soon after the citizens inside the building became their victims.
“Aaaah!”
“Save me…!”
The living guild members could not help but be taken aback by the mutants’ unexpected response.
“Stop it!”
“Don’t let me enter the building!”
Eventually they dispersed and entered the building following the screams coming from all over the building.
That was a trap.
Wow!
“What?!”
“There’s a swarm of bees inside the building…!”
Contaminated wasps that were waiting for the hunters to enter the building attacked them.
“wasp?!”
“This is no ordinary punishment! “It’s an insect-type monster!”
“It’s poison! “Never get stung by bees!”
The situation got messy.
Should we chase the mutants into the building?
Are you going to wipe out a swarm of black bees?
No matter how well trained and disciplined the Shinigami guild was they could not help but be embarrassed in this situation.
Lim Tae-gyu realized.
Contrary to how the mutants appeared they were moving strategically.
This meant that someone was controlling them behind the scenes.

It was obvious who it was.
“this! min! castle!”
A shout filled with magical power burst from Lim Tae-gyu’s mouth.
“Where are you? “Where are you hiding!”
The S-class hunter’s booming voice shook the air like a shock wave and shattered the windows of buildings.
“ear! “Cover your ears!”
Association hunters urgently shouted as they rescued citizens.
At the center of the chaos Lim Tae-gyu held up the messenger’s bow and pointed it towards the sky.
Multiple multi shots.
Shoo shoo shoo shoo shoo!
Numerous magical arrows were shot into the sky and hit the ground in a parabola like a fountain.
Some arrows hit the top of the head of a mutant wandering on the street.
Some arrows went through a broken window and into the torso of a mutant that was attacking a person inside.
Among them not a single arrow accidentally caused harm to citizens.
“oh my god….”
Team leader Han Jae-hyuk the Association Hunter could not keep his mouth shut due to that amazing skill.
“If you have something like this please use it a long time ago….”
Even if you say this there is a big gap in these skills.
It was understandable that Lim Tae-gyu saved this skill.
But the effect was clear.
“That’s it…!”
Mutants whose bodies were pierced by the Reaper’s arrows could not get up and just struggled on the floor.
The arrow pierced the entire body to the floor and pinned it there.
The Shinigami guild members rushed towards them and cut off their limbs.
Their colleagues who were laughing and chatting just a few days ago…
“I’m sorry Jaeseop.”
“That…!”
Killed.
At the same time the association hunters breathed a sigh of relief.
Due to the activities of the Reaper Guild the number of mutants was noticeably decreasing.
‘good. At this rate this place will be sorted out soon.’
But that was then.
What happened was something strange.
“Ugh….”
A groan suddenly erupted from somewhere.
There was Lim Tae-gyu looking down at the sword that had pierced his stomach with a puzzled expression.
I was dizzy.
‘It’s poison.’
But what surprised Lim Tae-gyu more than that was the fact that he had been ambushed.
Who on earth could fool an S-class hunter’s senses and come up to his back!
Lim Tae-gyu immediately looked back and saw the identity of the man who stabbed him and his mind went blank.
“Cough. “Why are you…”
It wasn’t like I was fooling my senses and coming closer.
From the beginning ‘he’ had always been standing behind him.
As always.
“I’m sorry boss.”
“Oh secretary….”
Secretary Oh who stabbed Lim Tae-gyu was smiling with an embarrassed expression.
“It’s still too early. “Vice President Lee Min-seong needs to be a little more aggressive.”
* * *
Suho asked Arsha.
“It looks like you don’t really care about that?”
Even though Lee Min-seong was creating his own army by imitating the queen bee Arsha the real queen bee seemed unconcerned.
“Hmm. I’m quite embarrassed by this. “Are you saying they are worker bees that were raised with great care?”
“Then you should have sent the lancers to catch him as soon as he ran away.”
“I tried to do that at first too. But no matter how many ordinary lancers we send we can’t do anything about him.”
The materials for the contaminated lancers were C-level or lower hunters.
No matter how hard these worker bees worked together it was impossible to capture Lee Min-seong who was an A-level hunter.
As if Suho defeated them all and arrived at this place.
Arsha frowned slightly and adjusted her posture to sit with her legs crossed.
“It really hurts me too. My original plan was to hide here quietly and follow in Quresha’s footsteps. So I lived really quietly.”
“For that matter the number of lancers was too large.”
“This is relatively small. I collected metallurgy and metallurgy to avoid getting caught by the association. “If I had made up my mind and tried to save money quickly I would have saved 100 times this amount.”
“I guess so.”
Suho also agreed with that.
From what I heard the method of making a spear knight was simple.
Just blindly try feeding royal jelly.
Because that was the end.
So if you are lucky enough to receive royal jelly well you will become a lancer or you will die.
“Actually this is quite a bit of work. “First I have to tame every single bee living on Earth into my family and infuse their stings with my royal jelly.”
[Isn’t that the queen bee and just a beekeeper?]
Ber taunted Arsha with a pure expression without any intention of ridicule.
Arsha looked a little hurt.
“I couldn’t help it. “I lost all my worker bees while crossing the dimensional gap so I had to get new ones one by one.”
“It must have been a lot of hardship. What should I do because I’m sorry? Today I killed all the lance knights I worked so hard to collect. Lee Min-seong also ran away.”
“I tried to apologize without looking sorry at all….”
Arsha opened her mouth in bewilderment at Suho’s soulless apology.
Then he smiled crossed his arms arrogantly and said.
“It’s okay. “Even though Lee Min-seong whom I worked so hard to raise became a disloyal worker bee and ran away from home his instincts will still be working faithfully for me.”
“For you?”
“yes. He is probably still working hard to make me the king of bugs. Of course you may not realize it yourself.”
“….”
Hearing Arsha’s words Suho felt a strange sense of déjà vu.
According to the White Tiger Guild’s briefing all Lee Min-seong had done in the past few days was attack and kidnap hunters.
‘Why did you kidnap the hunters because you wanted to create your own army and kill them?’
ah.
‘What if killing people is the goal itself?’
A flash of light struck Suho’s mind for an instant.
Suho finally realized.
To succeed a dead monarch.
To become a new monarch.
Haven’t you already seen that process once?
[The Fang Lord the king of beasts chuckles and looks at his priest.]
As if responding to that realization Rakan sent a message.
Suho said glaring at Arsha who was sitting calmly despite losing all of her footing.
“You need a sacrifice.”
I flinch.
“As many offerings as possible to perform a rite for the dead Quresha.”
“….”
Suho was convinced as he watched Arsha’s reaction as her expression gradually hardened to his words.
“Lee Min-seong must be outside doing the sword dance for you right now. “Seeing as they only kill hunters don’t you think they need magical sacrifices?”
“…It would be strange not to know something. “It may be different but you must have done something similar to become a descendant of the Fang Lords.”
Even though he was a priest and not a descendant it was still good.
Suho shrugged his shoulders and asked.
“But will you be okay? The Reaper Guild is keeping a close watch on Lee Min-seong. I’m afraid that if I stay still I’ll be tied up in one barrel. Moreover in order to capture A-rank Lee Min-seong the guild leader who is S-rank will of course have to step forward in person…”
Stop.
Suho spoke and then closed his mouth.
There was no way Arsha who had been by Lee Min-seong’s side for a long time would never know this fact.
If an S-class hunter steps forward Lee Min-seong will be caught in an instant.
But you still feel so relaxed?
“You planted a traitor next to the guild leader. “Like Lee Min-seong.”
I flinch.
As soon as Suho’s words fell Arsha’s face which had been relaxed the whole time showed its true expression for the first time.
