Chapter 102: Guild Battle (3)

Kim Hwanyong, an S-rank swordsman and the vice guild master of Ilsung Guild. Known as a high-ranking Awakened who supported Ilsung Guild alongside Guild Master Nam Cheolmin, he was initially Park Siwoo’s intended target.

‘I should be able to take him down easily.’

Look at Seo Yerim.

In one fell swoop, not only did she overpower Nam Cheolmin, but she also threw the entire Ilsung Guild into disarray, unabashedly displaying his worth without hesitation.

What about himself?

The Sword Saint’s Disciple and the Holy Sword’s owner.

The attached titles were quite impressive, but to be honest, he was one of the guild members with the least expectations in Money Talks Guild. And for good reason, since the other two were such monsters.

Seo Yerim was a highly respected senior and a true veteran Awakened who had built her reputation long ago, and the guild master, Kim Minwoo...

‘...Let’s not think about it.’

There is a path for the commoners.

Comparing himself to real monsters could only make him feel miserable.

There are 30 enemies, so that’s 30 targets.

Seo Yerim could probably handle 10.

Kim Minwoo would easily take care of 15.

‘...Well, I’m the youngest, so handling 5 should be enough, right?’

If he takes down the vice guild master, then that’s about 3 targets, right?

Park Siwoo rushes in.

Kim Hwanyong, sneering, raises his sword. As an S-rank Awakened, his eyes were full of confidence.

You’re still far off, pup!

Or at least that’s what his eyes seemed to say.

Only three exchanges.

In an instant, Kim Hwanyong’s forehead broke out in a cold sweat as the Holy Sword, closing the distance quickly and piercing his vital points.

By the sixth exchange, his hands and feet were becoming clumsy. As the sword, full of feints, stabbed him repeatedly, his movements also naturally became larger.

And just as they were about to clash for the tenth time, the Holy Sword, cleverly deflected, sliced through his neck.

Kim Hwanyong was instantly out.

Cedric was also rampaging, tearing through the protective barriers of the warriors he was facing.

Park Siwoo’s eyes lit up.

‘It’s easier without any restraints.’

Typically, the ranged classes would have bombarded them with spells.

The tide had turned.

The archers were out.

All the mages were down.

The remaining classes were distracted by Seo Yerim’s relentless attacks and Merhen’s magic.

Merhen, in particular, was a nightmare for the enemy backline, blasting high-level magic spells from a distance.

“Block it!”

They desperately tried to activate their defense skills, but the spells shattered them with a single blow. And the problems didn’t end there.

Dolsoe’s charge broke their front lines, followed by a relentless surge of skeletons.

Surrounded on all sides, the shields of the Awakened were rapidly failing.

‘It’s over.’

The outcome was clear, even to an untrained eye. The battle was heavily tilted.

Park Siwoo’s gaze became serious.

‘I haven’t even taken down five yet.’

He needed to defeat at least two more to meaningfully contribute to the guild’s victory.

He charged towards a swordsman surrounded by skeletons. Soon, he would start racking up those kills.

* * *

“The guild battle is over!”

“0 to 30. An absolutely overwhelming victory!”

“Wow... I never imagined the score would turn out like this. The Money Talks Guild is incredibly strong!”

The commentators exclaimed in astonishment.

Online Comments:

―Wow... is this real life?

―Seo Yerim is amazing, but Park Siwoo isn’t bad either? He took down the sub-guild master in just ten exchanges;

―Cedric is insane; He’s toying with an S-rank Awakened? What are his stats?

―LOL... they said they only recruited world-class talent, and they weren’t kidding lol

―Seriously lol. Honestly, it’s probably because they eat kimchi discount meals, but world-class talent can definitely pull this off lol

To be honest, while Seo Yerim and Kim Minwoo’s performances were too shocking, Park Siwoo’s performance was also not at a level that could be underestimated.

How could anyone say it wasn’t amazing when he cut down an S-rank swordsman in ten exchanges?

This was especially true when considering their levels.

“Could you please share a word about your future aspirations?”

“I’ll do the work of five people.”

“Five people’s worth?”

“Yes, since my sister does the work of ten, and my brother handles the work of fifteen, I figured I should aim for something similar.”

“Aha. I understand if that’s what you mean. But your ambition seems a bit modest, doesn’t it?”

Everyone from Caster Choi Yongjun to the audience nodded in agreement.

Park Siwoo’s performance was more than enough to earn him the MVP award, but the reality was...

Cedric had performed even more impressively. It was a testament to the insane power of the summons that Kim Minwoo possessed.

The feelings of an ordinary person trapped between geniuses.

It was an emotion that everyone who had Awakened would have felt at least once in their lives.

The world was vast, and there were many geniuses out there.

Choi Yongjun, feeling a strange sense of pity, nodded his head.

“Well said! But even five times is definitely a sign of a genius! Siwoo, you have no need to feel discouraged! That guy is really weird!”

Choi Yongjun shouted, pointing at Kim Minwoo.

“No, Guild Master Kim Minwoo! Was Necromancer really a job like this? If it was a job that could churn out summons like that, I would have chosen Necromancer right away!”

“It’s not usually like that, right?”

“But how did you do it, Guild Master?”

“I’ve been working a bit hard lately. I also had some luck.”

“Ah, as expected of a gourmet. I can’t get the know-how out of you. That’s too bad. But anyway, it seems like those two summons can’t avoid an interview either. First, Cedric?”

The skeleton took the microphone.

―Oh. Is this how you use it?

“Yes, that’s right. This is probably your first time participating in a guild battle, but how do you feel?”

― Ilsung Guild. Was this the 5th ranked guild in the country?

“Yes, that’s right.”

― From my perspective, it seems like a kind of knightly order, but it’s a bit lame compared to that.

“Uh... is that so?”

―It felt like it would be easy to sweep them away with just a count-level knight order. From the perspective of a knight like me, it seems like they lack a lot of guts. The Awakened in Korea need to train harder.

“Uh... yes. That’s right. Training is a never-ending field for the Awakened, isn’t it? Haha...”

Choi Yongjun said while wiping away his cold sweat.

It was an ignorant statement that seemed to have no regard for the consequences.

While some might try to inflate national pride and argue otherwise, the truth was that Ilsung Guild was simply the weakest among the top guilds.

The gap between the top five guilds wasn’t so significant that one could make such a claim.

On top of that, Cedric’s performance had been nothing short of terrifying.

S-rank Awakened?

He had simply pierced holes through their bodies with his spear.

One couldn’t help but wonder how far his spear fighting skills had reached.

— This knight is a joke lol

— Not even an imperial or royal knight, just a count-level one lol

— Well, he does have the qualifications to say that lol. He just tore through their formations lol

— “But are knight orders really that strong?

— “Maybe the place where this knight was from was a dangerous one lol

— “I’m so sorry, Korean Awakeneds ;; I’m so sorry, Korean Awakeneds ;; I’m so sorry, Korean Awakeneds ;;

Just then, Cedric, looking at Choi Yongjun, said.

— Still, there’s one thing Ilsung does well.

“Oh, what’s that?”

— Their Product quality is good. Especially the upcoming Ilsung 42 smartphone. It has real-time foreign language translation and voice recognition functions, so it’s very useful when traveling abroad...

Cedric recited the product information as if he was reading a Korean textbook. Before anyone knew it, he was holding the new product in his hand.

— Huh?

— What’s this?

— (Fact) he didn’t say that the guild is good xD.

— Oh lol, he was just saying the product is good lol

— Is this an impromptu advertisement?

— Is this his knight-like spirit or something?
