Chapter 87

1st place in the ranking is the villager

– Volume 4 Episode 13

13. A pioneering hindrance toddler? (2)

He was a brave man who could not come out from behind the wall of an unspecified majority, but he was a brave man.

Aeoga frowned at the words of unknown origin mixed with people.

“If you have something to say, don’t hide it and do it proudly like them. Besides, if you want to prove it, go into the community. There will be a video.”

The disturbed guild member was streaming.

He was stunned while streaming was interrupted, but the shadow-moving figure was briefly caught before he was stunned.

It started with people who came in contact with it in real time, and even though a short time had passed since then, the story spread quite loudly.

“Look at that! I said no!”

As the infant growled, those who pushed him dispersed, looking at each other.

When things go terribly wrong, they say I don’t know.

There were only a few of them who apologized to the infant.

“Look, I’ll leave them alone!”

Hoya stopped her from saying that she had filmed the entire video from the beginning and that she would release it through her girlfriend’s streaming.

Doing so will loosen the infant’s stomach, but it will crack the image of the infant that people see.

Hoya thought there would be more harm than good.

“…Yeah, I can’t be like them either.”

Yoo Ah, who was worried about Hoya’s persuasion, soon accepted Hoya’s words.

But the insides seemed unresolved.

“Ah, thanks for the help.”

“I didn’t mean to help. I just didn’t want to see this happen.”

YooA, who was constantly frowned, thanked the bookkeeper late.

However, he returned to the place where his guild members were as if nothing.

“But what was it?”

Hoya was curious about people who were all black.

As he listened to the story, the system message did not appear, so I thought it was an NPC.

It’s probably almost certain.

There must be a reason why NPCs who can easily subdue rankers appeared here.

The sudden appearance of special NPCs or monsters meant that there was something special in front of them.

Something like Hidden Peace.

Perhaps it wasn’t just Hoya who thought that way, so Yooa wrapped her arms around Hoya and Doban’s necks one by one and pulled them closer.

“Friends, take a look around.”

“?”As I looked around at the words of the infant, I saw people who were talking among themselves.

Confirming that Hoya and Doban’s eyes are looking around YooAh said almost the same thing as Hoya had in mind.

“And I don’t think we’re the only ones who thought like that. Everyone’s talking about something in a whisper. I heard that they were saying something similar to what I was thinking.”

It was ‘Shadow Ears’, one of the skills of YooA who was a ‘Shadow Thief’.

By designating a specific shadow, you can clearly hear the voice of the owner of the shadow or the owner of the shadow that is in contact with the shadow.

Even a voice that mumbles a little so that no one can hear it can be heard exactly as if it were speaking right in front of your eyes.

The infant used that skill to overhear the stories of quite a few people.

“I think I’ll just have to take what these guys are looking for. So please help me. I’ll give you back what you’ve suffered!”

A young child smiled like a villain in a cartoon and asked the two of them.

Even if it was a request, it wasn’t anything special.

It was simply to move the hunting grounds to the place in question, away from the place they had been hunting so far.

If the two didn’t help, Yoo Ah had the momentum to make the story that the culprit was himself, not a guess, but a fact.

Hoya wanted to repay the help he had received before, so he nodded.

It wasn’t a difficult request, and Hoya was also interested in the black guy.

Doban nodded his head as there was no particular difference of opinion.

“Okay then, let’s go!”

When Seha first said it, he only mentioned ‘a specific area’, so he didn’t know the exact location, but he found out the place when YooA overheard the story through his skill.

Hoya and Doban followed the infant along their steps.

Although the hunting grounds were moved, the surrounding landscape and the monsters themselves were no different from the places where they usually hunted.

Glowing moss, tall trees and lush leaves.

The difference, though, was that the monster’s regen location and players were seen a little more often.

“Badu, can you tell me where the monsters are?”

“Kong!”

Badu nodded at Hoya’s request.

Badu’s skill ‘instinct’ was of great help when looking for monsters.

Badu sniffed his nose a few times, then took the lead and started running, and the three followed.

Although Badu found the monsters well, there was a 50/50 chance that there were no players in the place where Badoo found the monsters.

“Wait, sniff…! Kung!”

Badu, who was constantly sniffing his nose, flashed his head and shook his tail violently.

“Badu, did you find anything?”

“Kong!”

[Status: While looking for an enemy, I accidentally detected a pleasant smell. Growth is still low […]

‘A nice smell…?’

As Hoya was internally questioning Badu’s condition, Badu quickly ran away.

The speed was a little faster than before.

It was as if he wanted to get closer to the subject of the smell as quickly as possible.

The place where I arrived after chasing Badu was a huge sight.

Players were scattered everywhere.

At a glance, it looked like he had lost his mind and was stunned with a status abnormality.

And in the center of them was a black man.

He had a black neck tee, a black robe, his hair was black, and his face was covered with a mask like a black egg ghost.

His hands and feet were also covered with black cloth, so he couldn’t see anything that could be called skin.

A man in such a suspicious outfit was stroking Badu, who was waving his tail violently, very naturally.

And for some reason, Hoya felt familiar with the black silhouette of a suspicious person.

That was then.

Quang-!

The black man who had been stroking Badu leapt quickly and slammed his fist at Doban.

The sound of his leaping was as light as his feathers being blown by the wind, but the snout that reached Dovan was never light.

Hoya, who was in a party with Doban, saw a small mark appearing next to his name and HP gauge displayed in the corner of his field of vision.

It was a mark that meant ‘passed out’.

Just as Hoya was checking it, the black man twisted his back, lifted his foot and slammed the infant’s neck hard.

The quick movements that only the eyes could chase after the afterimage, Hoya saw it and was able to think of a person.


No, but… he has no reason to be here?

Besides, he usually doesn’t know where he is and what he’s doing.

In a place like this, what is the probability of encountering in this form?

The black man who stunned the infant and doban took off the black egg-like mask that had covered his face.

In the place where the mask had been removed, there was the face of the person Hoya had imagined for a moment.

A resident of Ordo, a legendary fighter, a polite man.



“…why is the conservator here?”

He was there more days out than in town.

“Hoya, why are you here?”

After taking off the mask, the conservator rolled his eyes and asked Hoya.

Concenu’s face was half embarrassed and half happy.

Hoya has had a headache in his current situation.

He made a close prediction that the black person’s identity would be an NPC, but he didn’t even predict that the identity of the black person would be Consannu as much as his fingernails.

“I’m hunting…, why is Concenu here?”

The days that Consanuga was in the village were counted, so the number of days Hoya met him in the village did not exceed a single digit.

Hoya didn’t know much about Concenu.

But he wondered why he would have done this for no reason, since he had seen little of it, so he asked why.But without knowing it, there was a very slight vigilance in his voice.

“That’s… hahaha.”

Consonu smiled and scratched his cheek as if he was confused by Hoya’s reaction.

He had a reason for him, too, for what he is doing now, but it was a reason he knew and accepted only himself.

Hoya, who does not know the reason, had a rough estimate of what the current situation would look like.

Even his party was defeated as they had done so far, so it was natural to be wary.

“It’s a bit long to talk about…”

Concenu, who had been scratching his head in embarrassment, glared at Hoya as if he had a good idea.

“If you can understand the story, can you help me?”

[The quest ‘Concenu’s Help Request’ has occurred.][Concenu’s help request]

The legendary fighter Consonu, who now runs through the dark forest day and night for the Grim people.

Players can be neutralized very easily, but there are too many players to handle alone.

The Grim are also directly adding power, but they cannot add much power because the number of them that can move is limited.

He wants to borrow someone else’s hand, but the only people he can trust are the residents of Ordo.

But I can’t leave my seat to ask them for help.

Then Consannu found someone he could trust.

Concenu wants you to give him strength.

Hear his story.

Completion Conditions: Listen to Consonu and accept his request.

Success Rewards: Quest ‘Protection of the Grim’, Consonu’s favorability increase, EXP.

Failure Penalty: Consernu’s Favorability Decrease

‘Grim tribe?’

I don’t know what it is, but Hoya first accepted Consunu’s story.

Then Consannu let out a sigh of relief and looked around.

“This person is fine, so you can come out.”

As Consanu said so, in the shadows in the bushes, in his shadows under his feet, in the thin shadows of the branches.

From all over, people clad in all-black uniforms like Concenu came out.

Not a metaphorical expression, but from a place where there was really only a shadow, a person came out of the shadow as if something came out of the water from the bottom of the water.

There were three people in total, and as they nodded their heads slightly towards Hoya, they waved their arms and the shadows under their feet twitched.

A wriggling shadow broke through the ground and split into several branches and began to wrap around the bodies of nearby players.

Hoya could immediately recognize that it was the infant and the person who moved the false shadow.

The way they moved the shadows was really like a toddler.

But to be honest, they moved the shadows more freely than infants.

“First, I’ll move these people to a safe place.”
