Editor: you

-Sunbyul: I just got new information.

-Commander: Yes, brother!

-Sunbyul: They say, he’s a triple magician of fire, poison, and healing?

-Commander: Oh, really? So, it was that guy.

“…?”

Sunbyul, who was chat with the Commander, was confused.

-Sunbyul: That guy? Is he a user you know?

-Commander: Yes, I know of him. Don’t you know him, too brother?

-Sunbyul: Me?

-Commander: There was that user who destroyed the demon guild.

-Sunbyul: The Demon Hunter?

-Commander: Yes, the Demon Hunter’s ID was Soo-hyuk.

“… … !”

Sunbyul was bound to be shocked.

“That vicious bastard?”

The Demon Hunter that Sunbyul also knew. There was no way that someone in the guildmasters position didn’t know of him.

“Yes, you said his ID was Soo-hyuk.” The nickname was more famous than the character name, so he couldn’t remember for a while.

However, he remembered after hearing the commander. The character name of the Demon Hunter was Soo-hyuk.

“You sure you’re not mistaken?”

Sun-byul, who remembered the situation of the Demon guild, frowned. He wondered if he was about to touch the wrong person.

“No, we won’t have a connection anyway, and we’re not weak like the demon guild.”

But soon, the frown was released. The reason the demon guild became that way was because they had no power.

However, the name Dokgo symbolized power. The guild that took the place of the strongest guild in Pangea was the Dokgo guild.

“And the reason they were scared at that time was because there was no information on him.”

The reason that the Domen Hunter was scary was that only the name of the character was known.

But now they knew a lot more. Moreover, the situation even involved the guild. There was nothing scary about him anymore.

-Sunbyul: Take care of it.

-Commander: Of course! Knowing that he is the Demon Hunter, I will prepare more for sure.

– Kueo Ooh..

The Twin-headed Ogre fell. Only

[All monsters have been killed.]

[You have passed the test in Zone 5.]

[The door to Area 6 has opened.]

Then, after the test in zone 5, the door began to open.

“Hey… …”

Yeon-jeung exclaimed.

“It’s been less than an hour since we entered and we’ve passed the 5th zone already.”

It hasn’t been an hour since they entered the dungeon. However, they had already finished Section 5. They didn’t know they would pass so quickly.

“I know, right.”

Lilith also nodded as if she was sympathetic. Having such a conversation, Soo-hyuk, Yeon-jeung, and Lilith moved to the door of District 6.

“What is Zone 6? Is it a trap again?”

Yeon-jeung, who arrived at the door, muttered. What kind of tests are waiting in Zone 6?

“Let’s go.”

Soo-hyuk said. And Yeon-jeung nodded at Soo-hyuk’s words and entered District 6. Soo-hyuk also followed suit.

[You have entered zone 6.]

[The test begins.]

[Test in Zone 6: Cross the map]

[Block the six holes that release poison.]

[Use of potions is limited to 10 per individual.]

[Number of potions currently used: 0]

Upon entering, a message appeared.

‘Poison?’

Seeing the message, Soo-hyuk was able to see familiar words.

“Is this all poison?”

Then, at Yeon-jeung’s voice, Soo-hyuk looked ahead. The front was full of smoke of various colors, such as green, purple, and blue. The poison in the message was obvious.

‘With my resistance….’, seeing the poison, Soo-hyuk thought.

The effect of Soo-hyuk’s title “The Master of Poison” was that he was not affected by his own poison and ordinary poisons. What if the poison here falls into the category of “normal”?

‘This might be easy.’

He would be able to pass easily.

It was then.

“Let’s go in for a minute and see.”

Yeon-jeung said. It was to check how poisonous smoke was.

Jeobeogjeobeog

Yeon-jeung went into poison smoke. And the moment he stepped into the poison smoke.

[You are affected by the slow debuff.]

[You are affected by the bleeding debuff.]

[You are affected by the frozen debuff.]

[You are paralyzed for 5 seconds.]

A message appeared. He already knew he would become affected. Yeon-jeung confirmed his health that was being shaved down by the poison.

And Yeon-jeung, who confirmed his health, was bound to be surprised.

’80 thousand?’

The HP that was 100,000 was already at 80,000. In an instant, 20% flew away.

‘Brr, I need to get out’

He might die while staying in there. He needed to get back to the safe zone.

After 5 seconds, he was released from paralysis and quickly retreated to the safe zone. And he cried out urgently, seeing the health that fell below 50%.

“Soo-hyuk, ‘Sanctuary’!”

‘Sanctuary’ was needed. This is because his health was constantly going down.

“Sanctuary.”

Soo-hyuk cast ‘Sanctuary’ with an expression of doubt at Yeon-jeung’s urgent expression.

Seuaag!

The ‘Sanctuary’ appeared, and then Yeon-jeung let out a sigh of relief. Then he muttered while looking at the poisonous smoke, frowning his eyes.

“What kind of test is this? How is it even possible to get through this?”

It didn’t seem like there was a way to pass.

“Why?”

Soo-hyuk asked Yeon-jeung’s murmur.

“That….”

Yeon-jeung, looking at the poisonous smoke, answered Soo-hyuk’s question.

“The debuffs just now are no joke. I just almost died. What poison… …”

“Are you ok?”

Soo-hyuk understood the shock in Yeon-jeung’s answer.

“I’ll be right back.”

“What? Will you be okay?”

“Don’t worry. I have some poison-related items. And I have higher wisdom than you.”

To be precise, there was a related title. However, it wasn’t just Yeon-jeung present. So, Soo-hyuk had no intention of revealing the truth.

“Okay. When it becomes too dangerous, come back quickly.”

“Hhm.”

Soo-hyuk responded to Yeon-jeung’s words and stepped into the smoke. It was time to check whether the poison was “normal” or not.

[You have resisted.]

[You have resisted.]

[You have resisted.]

[You have resisted.]

The moment he left the safe area and entered the poison smoke, the messages began to appear.

‘So, it is ‘normal’.’

Fortunately, the poison in Zone 6 was ordinary poison.

‘I can handle this much easily.’

The test in Area 6 was to close the six holes that emitted poison. It was a very easy test for Soo-hyuk.

After seeing the messages, Soo-hyuk stepped back and returned to the safe zone.

“I’ll close the holes. I’ll be right back.” Soo-hyuk talked to Yeon-jeung and Lilith and then went back into poison smoke.

‘Where are they going to be?’

Soo-hyuk, who entered the poisonous smoke, turned to the left and went straight.

‘Let’s check by sticking to the wall.’

He only knew of the existence of the holes, but not the location. Soo-hyuk thought to follow the wall and checked for the holes.

‘If it’s not on the wall, it should be on the floor.’

What if it’s not on the wall? Just search the floor.

Seuaag.

Soo-hyuk, walking along the wall, could soon hear a hissing noise.

‘A hole?’

Wasn’t this the sound of poison coming out of the hole? Soo-hyuk thought so, speeding up and quickly approaching the source of the noise.

‘I found it.’

Soo-hyuk smiled. It was because he found a hole released green smoke. Right next to the hole was a dark black stone.

Swsh

Looking at the shape of the stone, it was clear that the stone was supposed to block the hole. Soo-hyuk lifted the stone to close the hole.

[Clogged poison hole: 1]

When he closed the hole, a message appeared.

And the green poison that filled the surroundings began to vanish rapidly.

‘Is the field of view getting wider as I block the holes?’

The poison vanished, and he could see farther than before.

‘It will be easier to find more and more.’

Soo-hyuk started to walk again. Then, after a while, the second hole was be found. It was the hole which emitted the blue smoke.

Again, there was a black stone next to it, and Soo-hyuk lifted the stone to close the hole, just like when he closed the first hole.

[Clogged poison hole: 2]

Soo-hyuk, who blocked the second hole, continued to move along the wall and closed the third, fourth, and fifth holes.

“uh? I’m back?”

“Hey, that’s great! It looked painful!”

And Soo-hyuk was able to return to the safe zone.

“Guys…”

Soo-hyuk was embarrassed to see Yeon-jeung and Lilith.

‘Where is the sixth?’

He walked along the wall. He didn’t find the sixth hole, but arrived at the safe zone again.

‘Is it on the floor, not the wall?’

There were only five holes closed. There was still a hole left. The sixth hole seemed to be on the floor, not the wall.

“I’ll need to stop that, too.”

Soo-hyuk again left the safe zone and went into the poisonous smoke.

‘I should head for the spot with the lowest visibility.’

As he continued, Soo-hyuk thought. The area around the hole would be thickened by the constantly emanating poison. In other words, if he went to the place with the thickest smoke, he would find it.

‘This way.’

Soo-hyuk took a step toward a place where the smoke was thick.

——————————————-

“Huuu….”

After checking the last papers, Sunbyul leaned against the chair with a long sigh.

“I should pick one more Sub-Guildmaster.”

As the guild grew, the workload was also increasing. Maybe sooner or later, it seemed like he had to choose one more Sub-Guildmaster.

“Has anything changed yet?”

Sunbyul took a break and checked his chat.

“Well, that’s right. Well….””

There were whispers from various places. Sunbyul started to check step by step from the recent whisper.

“..!”

It was then.

“Going through Area 8?”

After checking the whisper, Sunbyul tilted his head.

“What bullshit is this?”

The whisper that made Sunbyul’s head tilt.

-Lilith: I will contact you when we pass area 8.

That whisper was a whisper from Lilith. Sunbyul kept raising his brows and read the messages from Lilith to confirm.

-Lilith: We have arrived in Area 6.

-Lilith: The test is to close the six holes that release poison.

-Lilith: We have passed Area 6.

-Lilith: We have arrived in Area 7.

-Lilith: The test is to hunt five ogre boss monsters. They have fire, water, electricity, poison, and earth properties.

-Lilith: We have passed Area 7.

-Lilith: We have arrived in Area 8.

-Lilith: It’s a maze. There are monsters, but nothing special.

-Lilith: I will contact you when we pass zone 8.

After checking all the messages from Lilith, Sunbyul could not say anything.

‘She said they passed zone 6?’

Zone 8 was in progress. That meant they had passed the 6th zone already.

‘That crazy place?’

What kind of area was Zone 6 and how did they pass it? He couldn’t believe it.

-Sunbyul: Lilith?

Sunbyul immediately sent a whisper to Lilith. However, Lilith didn’t immediately respond on what they were doing. Sunbyul was anxious and waited for an answer from Lilith.

-Lilith: Yes, Hyunsung.

Two minutes later, a whisper came from Lilith.

-Sunbyul: Is it true that you have passed Area 6?

As soon as the whisper came, Sunbyul whispered again.

-Lilith: Mhmm, we passed.

-Sunbyul: How did you pass it? In what way?

He was curious. How on earth, how and in what way did they get through District 6?

-Lilith: It’s hard to believe.

Lilith’s answer followed.

-Lilith: He just walked in and closed the holes.

And at Lilith’s whisper that followed, Sunbyul tilted his head.

“Walked in and closed the holes?”

Sunbyul, who tilted his head, made an unbelieving expression.
