Leveling
34

Soon, Jin Woo finds what he's looking for.

"Mmph! mmmm! Mp! ”

One of the prisoners was fighting on the ground.

The man's hands and feet were tied, and his mouth was choked.

Before he died, Kang Taeshik had sent Jin Woo here,

"I left the rapist tied up somewhere nearby.The girl's father asked me to

kill him in the most painful way, so I've kept it for cover"

And those were the last words of that Rank-B Hunter.

Prisoners see Jin Woo approaching and fight even harder to escape.

It was as if he was telling Jin Woo to let go quickly.

"Mphh! Mmph! mmm! "

Looking closer, Jin Woo realizes that it was the prisoner who winked at Juhee.

He knelt down and took out a stopper from the man's mouth; the criminal opened his eyes

wide with relief and take a deep breath.

“Pant,pant,pant! Kang Taeshik, that crazy motherfucker, he killed them all!

Where the hell's he going? What's wrong with her? Did he catch you too? ”

Jin Woo did not reply and instead, raised his head and looked straight ahead.

That's the direction of the boss room.

The voice of the prisoner became more urgent,

"Hurry up and get me out of this.We have to get out of here before Kang Taeshik comes back.

Goddamn it, if only this rope wasn't filled with magic power! Do you have anything to cut

this one? Why didn't you say anything? Are you not listening to me ?! "

When the lowly Association-affiliated Hunter ignored him, the prisoner forgot

will be in his condition and be angry.

The emotionless Jin Woo finally opened his mouth,

"The boss is straight ahead."

"What?"

"He's stronger than an average D-Rank Dungeon boss.I wonder what his attack patterns will look like"

The prisoner lost his temper, he said,

"Who cares ?! Fuck those! "

Jin Woo continued calmly, though,

“Before that, I wanted to ask you one thing.Do you remember the girl you raped? "

"Huh? Which was? Are you related to one of my victims or something ?! ”

Jin Woo's eyes twitched.

"Which one" ..the guess is correct.

The crimes of the man were not limited to just one victim.

Possessing great strength, Hunters can easily become monsters in the presence of ordinary humans.

And this man has used that power to rape women.

This reinforces what Jin Woo plans to do.

He looked down on the prisoner and coldly spoke,

"Well, thank you for confirming it"

"What's? mmm! Mmphs! ”

Before the prisoner could continue, Jin Woo gagged him again.

Then, he grabbed the man by his ankle and started dragging him forward.

“Mmm! Mp! Mmph !!! ”

The prisoner struggled with all his might, blood vessels appearing on his face.

Ignoring the thrashing man, Jin Woo calmly dragged her all the way

approaching the boss room door.

“MM !!! MMPH !!! ”

Inside, there are hobgoblins, known for their love of human organs.

“MMM !!! MPH !!! MMPH !!! ”

The prisoner realized what Jin Woo was going to do.

He looked at the hobgoblins and shook his head fiercely, tears flowing

from his eyes.

The front of his pants got wet.

"Whooo"

Jin Woo took a deep breath, then threw the prisoner into the middle of the hobgoblins.

"MMMMM-H!"

"Kirk?"

“Kikikike”

"Belgk!"

Smelling the smell of fresh meat, the hobgoblin jumped over the prisoner and started tearing his stomach.

“MMM !!! MM !!! MMPH !!! ”

The thrashing prisoners moved so hard that the blood vessels burst in

his head, and turned his eyes away.

"Mmmm! Mmm ..mph ... "

Even as the man lost consciousness, the hobgoblins continued to tear and eat him.

Can an ordinary human watch the cruel spectacle of a man being eaten alive

like having lunch?

Jin Woo observes the room with narrowed eyes, looking for his Dungeon boss.

'That's it.'

The big hobgoblin was sitting haughtily in a distant place in the room.

His subordinates were sidetracked by bait, and the boss was left unattended.

This is Jin Woo's chance.

‘Sprint!’

Jin Woo flashed past the hobgoblins and appeared in front of the hobgoblin boss.

"Belgk!"

The boss tried to get up in surprise, but his head rolled on the ground before

he's fully awake.

ring ~!

[You have defeated the boss of the Dungeon]

[You level up!]

"Ah, I forgot."

Seeing the head of the hobgoblin boss on the ground, Jin Woo remembered the Runestone he had gotten for a while

preceding.

"If I use 'Stealth', I might not need to use bait to get to the boss"

Jin Woo clicked his tongue on the shattered remains of the prisoner.

His body could no longer be recognized as human.

Even so, Jin Woo did not feel any sense of pity towards the man.

"Well, whatever ..."

The plan worked.

It was easy to care for the remaining hobgoblins who had lost their leader.

"Buck!"

"Kiak!"

"Kiyak!"

The hobgoblins try to escape from Jin Woo but they are defeated in an instant.

"Buck!"

When the last hobgoblin is killed, an exhilarating sight appears before Jin Woo's eyes.

[You level up!]

'Again?'

Jin Woo's face brightened due to this unexpected growth.

He wiped the blood that was on Casaka's Poisoned Fang and collected the magic cores from the monster corpses.

After inserting his magic core into the storage, he checked his status screen.

In a short period of time, he had almost reached level 30.

He was disappointed at first at the beginning of the Raid, but after defeating the hobgoblin boss and his subordinates, the,

he suddenly gained an increase of 2 levels.

Lucky for all the powerful monsters to gather in the boss room.

"Wait, can it be called luck?"

Jin Woo thought of three different paths and the difficulty level of the boss room.

If a low-level Hunter becomes confident to complete the Raid after defeating

weak goblins, they might carelessly enter the boss room with confidence.

Then, a sudden leap in the hobgoblin's power might result in an ending

terrible for the Hunters.

The difference between goblins and hobgoblins is that big.

"I know that hobgoblin appearances are unusual in Dungeons with goblins, but still ..."

It was not unusual for a hobgoblin to make a nest in a boss room like just now.

It was absolutely impossible to predict what could happen in a Dungeon.

The luck of one person may be disastrous for another.

Only a powerful force could protect one from the chaos of the unknown

which disturbs the world.

Therefore, Jin Woo wants to become stronger.

Surviving in a Dungeon was one thing, but what if a Dungeon Break occurred in close proximity

his mother's hospital?

What if he was attacked by a monster in the middle of the road?

No, monsters aren't the only thing to fear.

The Hunters had already become an existence as dangerous as monsters.

Even if they are held back by the rules of society, there are still limits.

Jin Woo must gain the power to protect himself.

"There's a limit to a Hunter's strength."

And he has no such limits.

Enhancing his attributes and obtaining new items, his strength would increase considerably

beyond any logic.

And today, he had obtained another method to become stronger.

The runestones!

Jin Woo took out the Runestone from his pocket.

Just like the other items, the floating holographic letters formed an information box

by Runestone.

[Runestone: Stealth]

[Destroy the Runestone to absorb the Skill]

For the one who knew nothing, this was just a small stone with a strange mark on it.

For Hunter, it would make anyone drool with greed, regardless of their level.

A high ranker could use that skill, while a low ranker could sell it.

Especially Runestone with the skill, 'Stealth'.

What Jin Woo held in his palm might be able to get some price

billion in the public market.

Ten times that number on the black market.

The reason why selling on the black market is more profitable is simple.

That was because such a sale would not leave the records of anyone who had

buying Runestone.

Having a Skill that no one else knew was the same as holding a hidden trump card

or a secret weapon.

"Just like Kang Taeshik hides the 'Stealth' skill'."

If Jin Woo's stat wasn't high, his back would open like that.

He shuddered thinking about it.

‘For now, I will use this.I can always make more money"

Jin Woo will not let immediate profits obscure its long-term benefits.

The priority now is to get stronger.

The usefulness of the 'Stealth' Skill cannot be underestimated.

'To think that this little pebble is worth a few houses ...'

Jin Woo does what he only dreamed of in the past.

He clenched his palms around the Runestone.

crack

From the cracked Runestone, a fine red glow began to slowly surround his body.

The phenomenon was similar to receiving healing magic, except the light was red, not blue.

That's not a bad feeling.

A red aura swirled around his body, then entered his lungs through his nose,

and strange powers begin to fill Jin Woo's body.

A familiar electronic tone sounded in his head.

ring ~!

[You've learned 'Stealth' (Lv. 1)]

'okay!'

He had managed to absorb the Skill.

Since he had never used Runestone before, he felt nervous about

how was the process, but it was faster and easier than he thought.

‘So I can use 'Stealth’ now? ’

At the thought of obtaining a rare skill, his heart began to beat violently.

Jin Woo tried that skill, though,

‘Stealth.’

Skill responded immediately, and his body began to fade.

From the tip of his foot to the top of his head, his body became invisible.

It was a strange feeling of not being able to see his own hand in front of him.

"Will this work?"

Jin Woo took his dagger.

He felt a weapon in his hand but could not see it.

'I'm curious…'

Just like the knife Kang Taeshik used, Casaka's Poisoned Fang also applied

'Stealth' to him.

As he thought, it was not the special function of Kang Taeshik's weapon but the power of

that skill.

"What else can be applied?"
