Whether or not they knew that Seonghyeon was blocking the beasts with a single gesture, the guild members were busy exterminating the giant bugs.

Without realizing that the sky was a little brighter than when I first entered the door.

“Is it beyond your imagination?”

Of course, the strength of each one was a bit inferior to that of the engineering captains we went with the other day, but the experiences and sums we had accumulated through life and death together filled each other’s gaps very well.

Some were figuring out the regularity of the worm’s spewing fluid and alerting them when the time was right, while others were looking around to figure out which attacks had the most meaningful results.

It was basically Seonghyun’s guild that consisted of three to four people as a team, but as I kept watching the situation now, it gave the impression that they all became one team.

“done! I’ve found my weakness!”

“Watch out for poison! I’m coming out now!”

The gigantic worm that had only created fear was slowly losing its flesh and transforming into a creature that only aroused disgust.

“Will this door leave some bosses?”

So far, Seonghyeon has never left a boss.

Because the only goal was the extinction of the beast, there was no need to make troublesome things.

However, if we move forward with only one cause of the extinction of the beasts, it is now clear that there will be victims just as the 5th grade gate disappeared and the 4th and 3rd grade gates were strengthened.

If so.

What is the difference between those who want to sacrifice cows for a cause?

Seonghyeon knew better than anyone that sacrifice was inevitable.

And that sacrifice cannot be stopped.

So it was necessary.

that they become stronger on their own.

Even without doing anything, they were already getting stronger on their own.

Of course, damage would occur in the process, but there was no growth without damage, so it was something that had to be endured.

“Of course, excessive damage must be prevented.”

Seong-hyun stood up from his seat, taking off his pants.

Then I was looking pretty far behind me.

“Chief Manager.”

“yes.”

“Can you feel the location?”

“Yeah, I can feel the power condensing over quite a distance.”

Just like back then, he was preparing to attack from behind.

“I think I’ve gotten pretty strong. I didn’t feel it then, but I do feel it now. Shall I go and take care of it?”

“no. We’re going to leave this second-class door open. And I will have you subdue this gate at least once every two days, just like the list you entered today. Of course, with me as well.”

“It’s a kind of water lily.”

“That’s right. Rather than that, shall we go to the boss who is preparing to attack alone over there?”

“Yes, I understand.”

At that time, the boss was precisely aiming at Sunghyun.

Still, he was a level 2 door boss, so I could figure out who was the strongest among the intruders who came in, but there was an existence that didn’t feel anything.

And that was Seonghyun.

“Not feeling anything…”

That is, the opponent is incompetent or has overwhelming power to the point that he cannot even grasp it.

At first I thought it was the former.

However, after a single gesture in the air, hundreds of thousands of swords appeared at once, changing the boss’s mind to the latter.

“The rest is nothing to see.”

The answer comes from seeing how they are already struggling with their pets.

They didn’t have to care at all.

Only one.

That man sitting on that hill looking at the intruders and their pets as if evaluating them.

If they caught the man who even doubted that he was of the same race as the invaders in the first place, they would be defeated in the end.

“It’s just one chance.”

Still, it seemed that he was being vigilant, or that he could not figure out where he was.

Then, as slowly as possible, I had to use the magic so slowly that I didn’t even notice that the magic was gathering, and I had to cut off the man’s breath with just one shot.

“Whoa…”

The boss operated his magic slowly.

The distance was wider than usual so that it was not noticed in the middle.

‘A little bit, a little bit more…!’

It has already exceeded the limit that can be operated, but it is still not enough.

“Ugh…”

Due to the excessive use of magical power, the physical limits had already reached the extreme, and the muscles began to feel torn.

However, the boss persevered.

It was even growing in real time.

“It’s done…”

“What’s done?”

It wasn’t even a long time.

In order to hit an arrow from this distance in the first place, you must not miss the slightest bit of movement of the opponent.

From the beginning of mana operation to this moment just before firing, the boss did not take his gaze away from Seonghyun for even 0, 1, or 0.01 seconds, except for a blink of an eye.

But, then how?

After that blink of an eye, Seonghyun appeared right behind him.

“Uh, how…”

It didn’t seem close, nor did he notice himself.

Then, a thought suddenly crossed the boss’s head.

‘ha ha ha…’

Only two words ran through his head, but it was the first time the boss had such goosebumps all over his body.

just an illusion.

‘Is it such an arrogant thought to think that what I thought wasn’t close, that I wouldn’t have been able to pinpoint my location?’

What these two ideas have in common.

That’s the boss’s own opinion.

“You look very surprised.”

It wasn’t close to the boss, but it wasn’t for Seonghyeon.

The boss didn’t seem to notice himself, but this was also not for Seonghyeon.

“So, what are you going to do with that arrow?”

“Hey, this is…”

I couldn’t turn back now.

As long as you have already used the magic that has exceeded the limit, if you don’t pour it out somewhere, all the reactions will come back to you.

“Yeah, if you don’t shoot, you will die.”

Seonghyeon placed his hand on an arrow made of ferocious magical power that seemed to explode at any moment.

“Are you okay now?”

I just raised my hand.

With that alone, he completely turned the mass of magic that he had used beyond his limits, which would pierce the hearts of those invaders, to nothing.

“Hey, how can humans…!”

The boss quickly spread the distance.

Then he quickly put his hand on the bow and aimed it at Seonghyun.

“If you shoot it, you die.”

“…”

The hand of the beast who placed his hand on the bow began to tremble like crazy.

It’s like we can’t get along even though we’re so close.

‘I’m afraid…?’

It was a difficult fact to accept, but the feelings were more honest than anything else.

The boss looked at Seonghyeon with the hand holding the bow lowered.

“No, what do you want?”

As soon as I finished speaking, I felt a shock in the back of my head.

“Wherever you go, you bastard be cocky… Be respectful. It’s like a beast that knows enough.”

“Hey, hey…”

The opponent in front of me was even more angry because I thought it would be possible if I did my best.

“What do you want.”

“Only one.”

It was Seonghyeon who couldn’t see any expression, but rather, that figure came closer to the boss as a pressure.

What the hell is that one?

Is this what a strong being wants?

“Previously. that

“Those worms. How many?”

“bug? Are you talking about Poppy?”

“Poppy? Is that worm’s name Poppy?”

“I, that’s what I call it.”

“…Anyway, so how many?”

“A little over 100.”

Why are you asking?

Perhaps because of that curiousity, the fear had subsided a little, and the boss was staring at Seonghyeon with a curious expression.

“We will keep coming here.”

“Hey, what is that…”

“If you promise one thing instead, everything in it will survive.”

It was never a lie.

It didn’t even feel intimidating.

I kept getting the feeling that it was just an explanation.

“What do you want me to promise you?”

“Once every two days, everyone who came in today will come back.”

“…”

“Aren’t those poppies of yours who are fighting with my guild members the weakest right now?”

“That’s right.”

“When my guild members come in here, you keep feeding those Poppy…no bugs.”

“Yes, yes? Supply…?”

“okay.”

I’d like to get in the door with you as much as I can, but I’m not sure I’ll ever be able to do it all.

Since I decided to leave this door open anyway, it wouldn’t hurt to have insurance.

“Supply it steadily, and when you feel that you have gotten a little stronger, feed the worms little by little.”

“Well, does that mean we want us to be your opponents?”

“Exactly. So what’s the answer?”

“Hey, this is… the reason we exist…”

help the enemy

It was, of course, difficult to accept.

“Help me make a choice.”

Seonghyun held up a finger as it was.

Then, behind Seonghyeon, one of the shining swords that occupied the sky disappeared behind the dunes.

“Hey, that place…!”

“Chief Manager?”

“all right.”

The man who slapped him on the back of his head disappeared through an unidentified door, and immediately reappeared.

In the hand of Chief Cha who reappeared, a beast was held coldly.

“Wow, Farcra!”

It was one of his clan members who were waiting.

“Oh, I see, I see. I’ll do as you say, please, only pointless slaughter…”

At this boss’s attitude, Sunghyun only laughed.

How does a mage look like this?

“Please don’t do what you guys are doing…”

“I, please…”

“Aren’t there people who die in battle?”

“It is an honor to die in battle, but to die like this now is dog death.”

As if listening to the mindset of the knights of the Middle Ages, Seonghyeon couldn’t stop laughing.

Of course, this was a ridiculous laugh.

“That’s great. So what’s the answer?”

“Yeah, I will.”

He heard the boss’s answer, but Seong-hyeon did not end with this.

“Even if you want to know… these warriors you are proud of aren’t you? It’s like having such a high self-esteem, but it’s like bowing your head without even fighting.”

“Hey, what is that…”

After speaking, Sunghyun raised his hand again.

This time, not the fingers, but the whole hand.

“Wow, what!! What are you doing!!!!”

The boss, who had already experienced the consequences of that one small gesture, rushed to Seong-hyeon, but Seong-hyeon had already disappeared into an unidentified fissure.

“please…”

There was nothing he could do but watch the swords that filled the sky disappear one by one over the dunes.

It didn’t take long to see the results.

“If anyone sees it, they will think I killed them all.”

“Well, those words…”

In the crack where Seong-hyun appeared, his arms began to fall one by one.

“This arm is the arm of those whom you love so much.”

“…”

“and…”

When dozens or hundreds of arms fell off the rift, one last beast fell out.

“If you listen to me…”

The light that the sword that cut off the beasts’ arms shone from Seonghyeon’s hand, and then the severed beast’s arm returned to its original state.

“I can do this. It is up to you.”

I was upset, but I couldn’t help it.

If you fight back here, you will die in swarms.

‘I’m not just a strong person…’

They completely understood that their main means of attack was a bow, and they cut off their arms precisely so that they could not use the bow.

“Let’s go back to this today. See you in two days.”

“Now, thank you for your mercy.”

Kneeling and leaving the boss behind Joari, Seonghyeon headed to the guild members who had almost eradicated the bugs.
