It’s nothing compared to a myth, sure… but in the end, it’s a gamble.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Yeongwoo wore a conflicted expression, Sezail tilted his head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>—You look like your momentum suddenly dropped. Have you changed your mind?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Idiot. I’m wondering whether you can actually become a prince.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a deep sigh, Yeongwoo re-equipped the Gambler that had fallen to the ground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Click!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that, Sezail shifted his gaze toward the ceiling beyond.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>—That is something only the great Typesetter knows.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’ve never seen anyone obsessed with the Typesetter who turned out normal.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Scratching his forehead, Yeongwoo finally went ahead and manifested the myth transfer contract.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If Sezail truly became a prince of the Gaelorf royal family, Yeongwoo would not only receive a myth, but also gain a royal acquaintance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>‘I guess it wouldn’t hurt to expand my network once in a while. So far, I’ve only been making enemies.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If it succeeded, he would gain a myth weapon and a royal connection.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If it failed, he would merely lose this dungeon’s hidden reward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Let’s trust your fate for once. If your luck was good enough to run into me in a dungeon like this… becoming a prince should be easy.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Yeongwoo said this and held out the contract, Sezail placed his hand atop it and signed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>—Don’t forget. I will transfer this sword only after I become a prince. So for now, we must survive this dungeon.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Weren’t you here to win this dungeon in the first place? And since I’m the one who beat you, there’s nothing to worry about.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then Yeongwoo added,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“And all the points are mine.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>—What does that mean?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Anyone who charges at us from now on is my kill. You just sit there and watch.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When Yeongwoo pointed at Sezail’s severed arm on the floor, Sezail astonishingly picked it up and reattached it to his shoulder.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thump!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sezail possessed monstrous regenerative abilities, just like Yeongwoo.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You bastard… I even gave you a chance to get a prosthetic.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>—Enough nonsense. What’s the next plan?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What do you think? We escape this dungeon with the highest score. It’s still possible.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So far, only three teams had chosen Blood Battle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And two of them were already here.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Which meant that if they dealt with the remaining Blood Battle team, they would become the leading candidates for first place.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The other guy who chose Blood Battle is definitely aiming for top score too, so he’ll come looking for us. If we just win every fight, it’s simple.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just as Yeongwoo laid out his clear solution—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Crash!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A rough presence made itself known outside the entrance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Someone had violently grabbed the doorway and peered inside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“…Huh?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Turning his gaze, Yeongwoo saw a cyclops and a knight in blue armor sticking their heads in.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A raiding team had followed the location marker and arrived.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>—Ah.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>—This is bad.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Confirming that three participants were gathered inside, the two raiders realized something was wrong and hurriedly pulled back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>KWA-AAAANG!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They witnessed Yeongwoo closing the distance in an instant with Lightning Step.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What, weren’t you here to earn points? Where do you think you’re going now?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>—W-What…?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The raiders’ eyes locked onto the weapon in Yeongwoo’s hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Anyone could tell it radiated an ominous internal force.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>—H-Hey, we’re—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just as the blue knight began to speak awkwardly through the gap in his helmet—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>KWA-AAAACK!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yeongwoo’s Bastard cleaved straight through the knight’s skull.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“No time. Let’s skip the talking. Come at me!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before the sentence even finished, the blue knight collapsed backward with his head split open.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The cyclops, horrified, swung the club in his hands.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>WHOOOOOSH!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As expected of someone who entered a Unique Dungeon, it was a powerful blow—but to Yeongwoo, it looked slow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Whoosh!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yeongwoo leaned his upper body back and avoided the strike, causing the cyclops to panic and clasp his hands together.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thud!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The space above Yeongwoo’s head split open as if a sword mountain had appeared, and sharpened stone masses poured down.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What the hell is this now?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without even a moment to be surprised, Yeongwoo raised Aratubank and blocked the falling stones.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The cyclops didn’t miss the opening and swung his club again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>WHOOOSH!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>—That’s far enough!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You lunatic. Did you really think I’d fall for my own favorite trick?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Stepping back twice as if he’d been waiting for it, Yeongwoo instantly threw Bastard, piercing the cyclops’s shoulder.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>KWA-AAANG!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>—KEEACK!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The cyclops screamed and collapsed backward with a massive hole in his shoulder.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Translator - Night]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Proofreader - Gun]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>SHIIIING!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Bastard rapidly returned through Yeongwoo’s remote recall, it pierced straight through the cyclops’s neck.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>KWA-AT!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a short sound, Bastard passed through the cyclops and returned to Yeongwoo’s waist, and at the same time, numbers appeared in the vision of Yeongwoo and Gehika.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[180]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“180? That’s our score, right?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When Yeongwoo asked, Gehika inside the room nodded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>—Base score of 100, plus 20 per participant killed… that adds up to exactly 180.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“They don’t tell us rankings. So we’re just supposed to gather points blindly?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>—Even if there’s a separate first-place team, killing them makes the problem disappear, so it doesn’t really matter.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“First sensible thing you’ve said.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Yeongwoo nodded, the red arrow in his vision began to tilt sharply.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“New guest incoming.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>—It’s a Blood Battle team. This one won’t be easy either.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Gehika looked around nervously, Sezail let out a hollow laugh.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>—A complete rabble. And I lost to people like this?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Ever considered that you’re just not that strong yet?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Despite his crude speech, Yeongwoo’s actual status and achievements were formidable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was an undeniable Wonder of the Universe, with both his Authority Level and Prestige Reduction Rate being exceptionally high.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You two wait here. If someone shows up, make sure you deal with them.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Pointing at Gehika again, Yeongwoo slowly moved toward the direction of the tilting red arrow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As he’d felt from Sezail, none of the Blood Battle participants were weak.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That was why he decided to go meet the enemy alone, leaving behind Gehika—who was closer to dead weight.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>‘By the way, how many teams are left now? Excluding those hiding after choosing Preservation, it feels like it’s almost over.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There was no participant board or ranking display in this dungeon, making it impossible to gauge numbers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The dungeon itself was massive as well.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even the red arrow currently visible had been moving since before he met Sezail, yet the enemy still hadn’t arrived.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That alone showed how enormous the dungeon was.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And if that wasn’t the case—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>‘Then they probably ran into and fought several other teams on the way here.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If so, the opposing team might currently be in first place.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Which meant—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They absolutely had to be defeated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Click.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After moving about four rooms away from where Sezail and Gehika were stationed, the red arrow suddenly began moving extremely fast.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>‘Right in front of me.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Yeongwoo slowly drew Bastard, a purple hologram flickered across his vision.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“…!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sensing danger, Yeongwoo immediately sidestepped, and almost simultaneously, a jet-black steel stake tore through the space where his head had been.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>SKREEEEEANG!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The stake tore through the air and embedded itself deep into the wall.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Clank.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A chain was attached to its rear, extending all the way into the room across the hall.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Someone inside had thrown it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“…Who are you?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rubbing his neck after narrowly dodging the attack, Yeongwoo asked as the red arrow at the center of his vision shifted slightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>—And who are you? You don’t recognize me?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>‘Ah. This guy’s the last Blood Battle team.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Like Sezail, this opponent also appeared to be solo.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Which meant he had slaughtered the other three members of his team.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Clank.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With the distinctive sound of steel boots, a silhouette emerged beyond the doorway.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“…?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yeongwoo’s eyes widened once at the smaller-than-expected frame.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then widened again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“…What?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because standing there—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Was a goblin.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“A… goblin? How is a goblin even here?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Every goblin Yeongwoo had encountered so far had been low-tier cannon fodder.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After leaving the universe, he hadn’t seen a single noteworthy goblin.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet the one standing before him now—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>‘What kind of goblin ends up in a Unique Dungeon? And chooses Blood Battle?’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Yeongwoo stared in disbelief, the goblin standing proudly in the doorway flashed the lens fitted over one eye.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>—Ah… this one’s got an absurd amount of karma. And you don’t recognize me?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Who are you? Is there a reason I should know your name?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The goblin sniffed and placed a hand on the pistol at his waist.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>—You don’t know the hunter Tisai?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Do you have any idea how many people in this universe claim to be famous? What exactly do you do?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since he didn’t state a family name, he clearly wasn’t nobility.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing Yeongwoo’s continued confusion, the goblin furrowed his brow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>—Then let me educate you.
