Chapter 130: Diary of a Wanderer (3)
‘I can do it! No, I must do it.’
Thunk!
Yeongwoo, who pulled the bowstring tens of ters above the ground, looked carefully at the na tag of the mutant fallen in Gangnam.
[Singer – Lee Seonho]
‘Ah, Lee Seonho.’
This mutant was also a na Yeongwoo knew.
Lee Seonho, the leader of the second generation male idol group “Zero” in South Korea.
Although it had been almost 20 years since his debut and he was practically retired from the entertainnt industry, the na Lee Seonho still remained unforgettable to the public.
Because.
―[Exclusive] ‘Zero’ Lee Seonho, Assault Incident in Drinking Session, Charged.
―”Sorry to Fans and Zero” Lee Seonho, First Confession after Assault Incident.
―Unstoppable Assault Locomotive, Lee Seonho Faces Fourth Indictnt.
This is because his personality changes whenever he drinks alcohol, and he gets caught up in assault controversies almost every day.
So, although Yeongwoo might not know Zero’s representative songs, he was well aware of the face and notoriety of Lee Seonho, the group’s leader.
‘But he’s not even human anymore.’
What kind of monster had Lee Seonho, the perpetrator of the assaults, turned into?
The ground was still covered in dust at the landing site, making it impossible to see him clearly.
But.
Thunk!
As the bright na tag of the opponent shone, Yeongwoo released his hand from the bowstring.
Clang!
Suddenly, trendous pressure built up in front of the silver bowstring.
Swoosh!
With its distinctive sound, an arrow was shot.
‘The sound is incredibly loud.’
Yeongwoo realized anew how loud the whizzing sound of the arrow was.
He hadn’t been bothered by the noise before because he hadn’t had to snipe opponents unilaterally.
‘Isn’t there any equipnt to reduce the sound?’
Thinking so, Yeongwoo quickly turned his body and looked towards Gwangjin-gu.
His body was already beginning to descend, leaving him with little ti.
Thunk!
As Yeongwoo pulled the bowstring again, aiming towards the Konkuk University campus, sothing began to erge from the landing point, just like in Gangnam, enveloped in dust.
“What…”
Yeongwoo widened his eyes at the unexpected movent.
The mutant in Gwangjin-gu was a flying-type monster appearing for the first ti since the reset, a wyvern.
-Kkkkreeeeak!
“…Ugh.”
Yeongwoo frowned at the unfamiliar cry of the wyvern, then aid at the head under the opponent’s na tag, but changed his mind.
[Seoul City Councilor – Kim Seokshin]
The incessant flapping of its massive wings kept it aloft, causing its head to sway continuously.
So, in the end, Yeongwoo…
Thunk, Clang!
…shot an arrow towards the opponent’s enormous wings.
Swoosh!
Once again, the distinctive sound echoed, and this ti, a sensory alert appeared in Yeongwoo’s field of vision.
「The sensory value has temporarily increased from the previous 1,400 to 3,566.」
‘What? Again this ti?’
It’s an enormous amount of sensory input.
Perhaps Lee Seonho from Gangnam, who had been hit by the arrow first, recognized this direction.
And judging by the amount of sensory input gathered, the opponent’s basic sensory value was a whopping…
‘4,332….’
Could it be one of the reinforced mutants that started erging since yesterday?
Quack!
As Yeongwoo landed on the Cheongdam Bridge, he quickly turned his head towards Gangnam.
‘As expected.’
As anticipated, the red pillar of light from Gangnam was rapidly approaching.
Lee Seonho, who initiated the attack, was coming for the sniper.
「Aaargh!」
Judging from the voice coming from afar, it seed like the arrow hit him squarely. His scream conveyed imnse anger.
‘Should I deal with Lee Seonho first?’
Wouldn’t it be more appropriate to stabilize Gangnam, his current district, rather than Gwangjin-gu, which currently has no residents?
Clunk.
Just as Yeongwoo was about to go out to et Lee Seonho…
Rumble!
A strange noise erupted behind him.
“Huh…?”
As Yeongwoo turned around, he saw the sight of Gwangjin-gu transforming into a sea of fire.
“This is insane.”
The flying wyvern that fell in Gwangjin-gu along with Seoul City Council mber Kim Seokshin began to emit breaths.
* * *
Wyverns.
Imaginary creatures often referred to as flying dragons.
In general, they are considered to be a sub-mutant of Western dragons, or in other words, a subcategory of dragons.
Their appearance has undergone nurous changes throughout history, but recently, they are generally described as “lower dragons with front legs integrated with wings.”
Their intelligence and personality vary greatly depending on the work that features them, but to differentiate them from dragons, wyverns are often portrayed as more aggressive or lacking in communication skills.
In other words, simply put,
‘It’s just the perfect monster to send out before bringing out dragons. Strong enough, capable of flying, and even spewing fire.’
As Yeongwoo contemplated his definition of wyverns, he looked at dozens of them spewing fire on the other side.
And among them…
「That bastard…!」
There was Seoul City Councilor Kim Seokshin, who had finally located Yeongwoo and started flapping his wings.
A particularly large wyvern, with crimson blood trickling down from one of its wings.
‘Even with a hole in its wing, it can still fly.’
Soon after, Kim Seokshin seed to have fully recognized Yeongwoo as the enemy, as his sensory value shot up once again.
「The sensory value has temporarily increased from the previous 3,566 to 4,811.」
This ti, the absorbed sensory value was 1,245.
Therefore, Kim Seokshin’s original sensory value, as manifested in the wyvern, was 2,490.
‘At least in terms of abilities, Lee Seonho seems stronger.’
Just by comparing their sensory values, it’s 2,490 versus 4,332.
Thunk!
As Yeongwoo quickly mounted the wyvern’s back, he glanced briefly behind him.
Then, enraged Lee Seonho finally arrived at the end of the Cheongdam Bridge.
「Aaargh!」
His physical form erged with a silver arrow lodged near his neck.
[Singer – Lee Seonho]
None other than a Death Knight.
A skeletal, ghastly figure clad in gray armor, an undead knight.
[Translator – Night]
[Proofreader – Gun]
‘Ah, if the chairman had seen it, he might have liked it.’
While there were differences in appearance from the dostic version of ‘Death Knight’, Yeongwoo sensed that Lee Seonho had returned as a considerable monster nonetheless.
Starting from the basic abilities, they were extraordinary.
「Gyeongbuk’s Strongesy Sword……!」
Eventually, Lee Seonho, standing tall on the other side of the Cheongdam Bridge, roared out the only text visible to him.
It was the only ans by which he could summon the madman who had shot an arrow at him.
In response, Yeongwoo…
“…”
Thunk.
Pulled the bowstring once again without a word.
He judged that now, with the sensory value at its peak, was the ti to attack.
‘Let’s see how much stronger it becos.’
「White Fire」 – Epic Bow
【Sense values apply to arrow power.】
【Power increases depending on the distance the arrow flies.】
According to the tooltip, White Fire receives power adjustnts not only based on the arrow’s distance but also on the sensory value.
And indeed.
Thunk!
As Yeongwoo released the bowstring, a shimring energy gathered in front of the bow, unlike before.
Shwaaah…
Then.
Boom!
An explosion accompanied the creation of a silver arrow that sliced through the air like a shell.
“Ugh!”
Directly towards the Death Knight Lee Seonho, standing confidently on the other side.
Shwaaaaa!
‘This is just a cannon.’
Yeongwoo, astonished by the power beyond imagination, belatedly realized that the trajectory of the arrow was embroidering a pattern resembling a dogo’s crest.
Shirrrrring!
As the real fight began, the insertion of that damn logo began.
‘Hm, should I do another promotional slogan?’
But this ti, there wasn’t any separate money set aside for this battle.
Yeongwoo gazed at the sky, subtly waiting for sothing.
And in the anti…
「Eeek!」
As he returned to this world, Lee Seonho, once again receiving an arrow as a gift, urgently raised his sword and blocked the arrow.
Whack!
「Grrr!」
Lee Seonho, blocking the arrow with sparks flying, montarily staggered, and upon seeing this, Yeongwoo imdiately urged the wyvern towards Gwangjin-gu.
‘Sufficient. With this level, I can handle them both.’
This battle inevitably had to be fought in Gwangjin-gu.
Although it would have been ideal to capture Lee Seonho within Gangnam to unleash the Golden Rain, it ant accepting that the wyverns filling Gwangjin-gu would move to other areas.
‘Even if those bastards don’t spew their breath, I have to deal with Lee Seonho in Gangnam first.’
Yeongwoo’s sight already caught sight of so wyverns entering Gangnam through the Yeongdong Bridge on the opposite side.
So.
Thunk, Boom!
He swiftly pulled the bowstring in succession, unsettling them.
And finally, Kim Seokshin realized.
The identity of the horse archer who suddenly ambushed them.
「So, your role is to stop us. Haha, what an interesting world.」
Then, blocking the entrance to Cheongdam Bridge towards Gwangjin-gu, where Yeongwoo was heading, he…
Kwoong.
「DIE.」
With its scaled mouth wide open, it spewed out a fiery breath.
Fwaaaah!
Instantly, as the 27-ter-wide Cheongdam Bridge was engulfed in flas, it attempted to swallow Yeongwoo whole.
‘What kind of firepower is that?’
Yeongwoo, astonished by the unrealistic level of firepower, leaped high into the air with Negwig.
It was towards the body of Kim Seokshin, blocking the exit of Cheongdam Bridge.
Quack!
As Yeongwoo left behind a small shadow and disappeared into the sky, Kim Seokshin, montarily losing sight of his opponent, raised his head.
Then.
Thunk, Thunk!
From above the sky to towards the ground, he saw the opponent pulling the bowstring vertically.
「Uh…!」
Kim Seokshin realized that sothing was seriously wrong.
And Lee Seonho, who had been rushing to the scene, scread a scream-like cry from within the gray armor.
「You sick old bastard! You obviously should have…!」
Though he spoke like this, he was actually worrying about Kim Seokshin, who was practically his only ally in this world.
If he were to die now, wouldn’t he have to fight against that horse archer alone?
However.
Fwaaaah!
Along with another explosion, the arrow that followed pierced through Kim Seokshin’s mouth, striking the surface of the Han River under the Cheongdam Bridge.
「Ugh…!」
To anyone’s eyes, it was clear that the one struck had taken their last breath.
Then, suddenly, the body of Kim Seokshin, who had been thrashing around, seed to lose all strength.
He had just been struck and killed.
「You bastard!」
Lee Seonho, the fourth-day mutant of Gangnam, the Death Knight, scread in anguish as he sharpened his sword.
Unlike the previous returnees, he was one of the few mutants who tasted despair as soon as he arrived in this world.
Coincidentally, the return destination was under the jurisdiction of the ‘Monster,’ Jeong Yeongwoo.
「Stay right there! I will definitely kill you!」
Despite Lee Seonho’s fury-filled shout, Yeongwoo didn’t even look back, but instead headed towards Gwangjin-gu, past Kim Seokshin’s corpse.
Because…
‘Ah, finally.’
