Kill The Hero – Chapter 48
In a dull office where the only light was provided by two fixtures on the ceiling, two men sat at a table, facing each other. One of them was very large and muscular, with a shiny bald head, the other was much smaller and looked at the man across from him with a slightly ugly expression. The sight was very strange and it wouldn’t seem out of place if guns or drugs were added to the scene.
Suddenly the bald man pulled a package out of his pocket. In a situation like this, what one would expect would be maybe a bar of gold or drugs or something of the sort, but when the man unwrapped the package, what was revealed instead, was a bar of chocolate.
Thus the image became rather strange and the smaller man couldn’t help but ask,
“Are you really going to eat a chocolate bar now?”
Oh Se-chan looked at the large man across from him who was munching away at his chocolate bar.
“This is how a man should be.”
When he heard that response, a smile appeared on Oh Se-chan’s face.
“Yes, if you don’t eat like that, people will definitely think you’re a woman. When you go to the bathroom make sure to take out a chocolate bar and start eating otherwise people will think they entered the women’s bathroom instead.”
Lee Jin-ah ignored Oh Se-chan’s words and instead asked in a serious tone.
“Why’d you call me here?”
“An A+ ranked dungeon has been discovered.”
“If you’re telling me about it, that must mean that it’s at least 2 floors.”
“Yeah, it’s two floors, level limit is 35 and under and only 99 entries are available.”
As he listened to the report, Lee Jin-ah’s face gradually became worse, but he didn’t pick up the document that Oh Se-chan placed on the table in front of him because he didn’t think too much about it.
An A+ rank dungeon was only for those large and powerful guilds like the Messiah Guild or the Phoenix Guild. It was not something small guilds could usually touch.
“The dungeon boss is a Needle Snake.”
However when he heard what the boss was, Lee Jin-ah reached forward and picked up the report in front of him.
“Hu-, Huh? Isn’t this supposed to be a dungeon report?”
“Oh sorry, ignore that, the report is on the back.”
After flipping the paper over, Lee Jin-ah saw the report.
As he read the details of the dungeon, Lee Jin-ah couldn’t help but say in a nervous tone,
“Will there be anyone willing to do this? For players below level 35, a Needle Snake is almost certain death.”
“It truly is almost guaranteed death.”
The Needle Snake. A monster that became well known around the world two years ago when it first appeared. Showing up in Paris, France and then the United States, Britain and Japan one after another. However, there was no detailed information about it, and that was for one simple reason.
“Because it’s never been successfully killed before.”
No one had ever returned from a Needle Snake hunt. Because of this, the monster was given a nickname…
The Snake of Death, or the Snake Reaper. This name was given because of the large number of players that it killed.
“Hey, do you have to keep giving things stupid names?”
“It’s all the same, Death Snake, Snake Fucker, Snake Bitch, Fucking Bitch, they’re the same thing right? Anyway, I roughly understand the situation now.”
Lee Jin-Ah put the report and looked at Oh Se-chan, his expression becoming serious.
“Most guilds will probably give up their claim on this one, but you’re the one who wants to eat it up first, right?”
“And you’re looking to blend into the crowd or maybe wait for a foreign guild to challenge.”
“But to snatch it from them we’d have to be really good or really. strong.”
“Well let’s discuss the plan while we eat. I’ll take champagne with a large serving of tangsuyuk. Oh and please ask for a generous helping of dumplings too.”
Oh Se-chan shook his head at the sudden change.
“Where did this bullshit come from all of a sudden?”
“You have to invest a bit to hire a skilled person don’t you?”
“That’s true, but why are you the one eating?”
“Because I’m the best person for such a job.”
Oh Se-chan gave him a blank stare.
“No? Then who could it be? Dragon Slayer? Trinity? The Brain? Or the Messiah Lee Se-jun? But all of them are near level 200 so they wouldn’t be able to enter the dungeon.”
When he heard the name, Lee Jin-ah made an ugly face.
“Damn it! I don’t wanna hunt with that bastard!”
“You should know! The guy is a heartless monster! I’ve never met anyone as crazy as he is. Humans usually have a consciousness, that guy, he considers your endurance before your skill. He needs to learn how to treat people right, first.”
Lee Jin-ah was very much against working with Kim Woo-jin.
“If you work with him, you would complete it more efficiently.”
Instead of arguing further, Oh Se-chan removed a recorder from his pocket and put it on the table after pressing the playback button.
As he thought of the question, Kim Woo-jin finally gave his answer.
‘Something like that…I could do it for free.’
After he had this thought, Woo-jin got up and started preparing for the hunt.
‘Hunting a Needle Snake…that’s easy.’
