"What on…"

Kang Chul-In murmured, astonished .

It truly seemed there was nothing that couldn't be done with money .

"Ha… Being poor is a crime, it seems . "

For the first time, Kang Chul-In sounded depressed .

To think that she would even buy strength with money… Lee Chae-Rin was truly the living example that money could buy literally everything .

"No . "

But Lee Chae-Rin shook her head .

"You can't buy everything with money . Especially… things like love . "

" . . . ?"

"A man that I know seems like he wouldn't come over even if I spend tens and hundreds of dollars on him . He's an iron wall . "

Saying that, Lee Chae-Rin involuntarily blushed .

"Let's fight . "

But Kang Chul-In ignored what Lee Chae-Rin said, and started to walk towards the bone dragon . Now wasn't the time to be talking amongst themselves .

"Hmph!"

Lee Chae-Rin pouted .

------------

The fight between Kang Chul-In and the bone dragon changed as Lee Chae-Rin also collaborated .

Lee Chae-Rin chanted a spell, holding her 'MoneyPay' item .

Pzzt!

Crack!

Crack!!

With the sound of gold clattering, 'they' appeared .

Lee Chae-Rin!

Seeing this, Kang Chul-In's eyes started to shine .

The existences that Lee Chae-Rin had just summoned were extremely useful in the current situation they were in .

The fierce-looking things covered in bright light… were called 'electra', and were intermediate light elementals . They were quite fit to be the helpers of Kang Chul-In in this situation, as they needed something of the light element to deal an effective blow to the bone dragon .

"Mr . Chul-In!"

Lee Chae-Rin shouted .

"I'll also help!"

Even though it may be different at times, she was a powerful ally right now .

"Alright . "

Kang Chul-In answered, and continued to run towards the bone dragon .

-Kuooooo!!

The bone dragon roared, and met Kang Chul-In's charge head-on .

At that moment .

Pzzt!

Bang!

The group of electras started to suicide bomb the bone dragon while it was occupied with Kang Chul-In .

Surprisingly, there weren't just one or two electras that Lee Chae-Rin had called upon; there were nearly 50 .

It was obvious that if that many electras suicide bombed the bone dragon, its defense would decrease by a significant amount .

Nice .

Looking at the damage done to the bone dragon, Kang Chul-In thought that it might very well be possible to take this monster down .

At that moment, Kang Chul-In jumped up .

Kuoooo!

And the energy of the Vortex started to flow out from Kang Chul-In's hands .

The target was the bone dragon's side, where the electras had suicide bombed themselves .

BANG!

Clack…

Some of the ribs of the bone dragon were broken into pieces, and the bones flew all around the place .

"Lee Chae-Rin, the head! Aim for its head!"

Kang Chul-In shouted .

In order to kill the bone dragon, they had to aim for its 'Death Core', which was located in its skull .

"Okay!"

Lee Chae-Rin waved her staff, and commanded the electras to attack .

-Pzzt!

Understanding what Lee Chae-Rin wanted to do, the electras all rushed to the head of the bone dragon, before exploding .

BANG, BANG!

It was as if lightning had struck .

Clack, Clack…

At the relentless attack of the electras, the bone dragon started to wobble and scream in pain .

I need to finish it in one blow .

Kang Chul-In moved around the bone dragon, and waited for the perfect timing to attack .

The bone dragon had a special ability to berserk and increase in strength by 3 times when it received a certain amount of damage .

If that happened?

They wouldn't be able to do anything to stop the bone dragon .

There was also a possibility of it running away, so that was another problem .

As a former dragon, the bone dragon was able to fly .

It would be almost impossible to catch since Kang Chul-In himself couldn't fly .

This was his only chance . He had to destroy the core of the bone dragon when it was dazed and weakened by the continuous attack of the electras .

Bang!

The final electra exploded itself on the skull of the bone dragon .

Tzzt…

And a crack appeared on the giant skull of the bone dragon .

Now!

Kang Chul-In rushed out like a bullet .

Tat!

Kang Chul-In jumped over 15 meters, and fell towards the bone dragon .

Pzzt, Pzzt!

With all of his mana concentrated onto his fist, Kang Chul-In aimed at the skull of the bone dragon . It seemed possible to destroy the skull and the core if this attack landed .

But,

Shooo-!

With a terrifying sound…

BANG!

A missile came out of nowhere and exploded onto the back of the bone dragon .

"What the…"

Kang Chul-In's face was full of shock .

And soon after, the flames that occurred due to the explosion of the missile covered Kang Chul-In .

"M-Mr . Chul-in!"

Lee Chae-Rin let out a scream that almost sounded like wailing .

1 minute ago…

Watching the fight between Kang Chul-In and the bone dragon on a giant monitor, the Chief of Staff and the highest-ranked military officer in South Korea, Oh Se-Min, sighed and gave an order .

"Shoot it . "

At this command, lieutenant general Ko Yong-Chan tried to stop Oh Se-Min .

"That man… that's Kang Chul-In from the Galaxy Corporation…"

" . . . So?"

"Sorry?"

"Kang Chul-In or whatever, is that guy the one feeding us and giving us money?"

" . . . !"

"Have you seen the news? What do you think is going to happen to our positions if we leave this be?"

There was a reason Oh Se-Min was so sensitive and angry right now .

[The Army, Unable To Save The Civilians From Monsters . ]

[Vs . The Monsters, What Did The Army Do?]

[The Useless Army, The Useful Adventurers . ]

[The Struggling Army… Is The Galaxy Corporation The Only One To Trust?]

Currently, the army was getting criticised by the mass media .

It made sense .

It had been 3 hours since the monster invasion had begun, and the army was completely powerless .

During the time that they weren't doing anything, the adventurers came and cut down the monsters one by one, and became the heroes of the civilians .

"Do you want to see me, and all the people in here, lose our positions?"

"But chief, this doesn't make sense! We should talk to the adventurers and co-operate with…"

"SHUT UP!"

Oh Se-Min shouted, and stopped lieutenant Ko Yong-Chan's words midway .

"Hey, Ko Yong-Chan . I'm the one in charge here . So . Shut . Up . Okay?"

" . . . "

"Stupid bastard… I don't understand how you got your position with that stupid head…"

After Oh Se-Min stared at Ko Yong-Chan with disgusted eyes,

"Hey, operations manager . "

"Colonel, Jung! Sung! Hoon!"

"From this moment onward, we will respond with the Panzerfaust 3 . Tell that to everyone . "

"Yes, understood!"

"And…"

Oh Se-Min looked at Kang Chul-In and the bone dragon once more .

"Tell them to shoot . That Kang whatever, just shoot him too . If news comes out, tell the media that he was ignoring our warnings, and staying near the monster . "

" . . . Understood . "

"Same for the other adventurers . "

Oh Se-Min added .

"We ignore the safety of the adventurers . Make sure we attack first . I will take responsibility and talk to the people of the Blue House . "

" . . . Understood . "

Even though colonel Jung felt disgusted at Oh Se-Min's methods, it was impossible for him to ignore the words of the joint chief of staff .

"Sea Eagle, Sea Eagle . "

-Nest, nest . This is Sea Eagle, over . "

"Sea Eagle, current time: 11: 20 . An order has been given . "

And soon after the command was given, the 'hellfire missile' otherwise known as the AGM-114M Hellfire II hit the back of the bone dragon, and cheers could be heard in the board office .

But, as the flames subsided and the bone dragon that was now covered in black appeared…

"D-Don't tell me…"

"Even after getting hit…"

"No way…"

The soldiers that were watching couldn't hide their shock .

The bone dragon roared fiercely, its eyes having a terrifying reddish glow that it didn't have before .

-Kuoooooo!!

It was obvious that it just entered its berserk mode .

-Krrr…

The bone dragon stared at the attack helicopter that had just shot a missile towards it,

Clack…

Before spreading its withered wings,
