Kurwarwarwarwa-!
50% of his health was restored and various stats were increased. When the information window appeared, flames also wrapped around Ark’s body. It was like an armour of fire and he could feel the sense of vitality welling up inside him. It really felt like a Divine Skill.
“W-what is that? Perhaps…..?”
Bread’s mouth gaped open as he simultaneously received 1000 damage. Ark moved a finger covered in fire and laughed before explaining. Flames even emerged from his mouth every time he talked.
“Have you heard of Divine Skills?”
“D-divine skill!”
All the blood drained from Bread’s face. Then he hurriedly turned around and jumped onto a nearby rock. A Divine skill had been activated in that territory. He wouldn’t feel comfortable even with his health at 100%. Bread instantly judged that and used the power of the Cheetah to try to escape by jumping on the rocks.
“A wise choice but….. It’s too late!”
Kwang!
The ground rumbled as Ark jumped 10 metres. Then he grabbed Bread’s collar who had jumped too late and dragged him back down. The pit then shook as a flame pillar spouted him dozens of metres.
“Kuaaaak!”
When Bread hit the ground, he lost 1,200 health instantly. It was the extreme power of the Divine Skill!
“Now, take this. This is my strongest attack!”
Ark jumped up and brought his sword down vertically. The sword penetrated Bread’s chest and swirled with flames.
Kwa kwa kwa kwa kwa kwa!
A flame tornado rose into the sky. It’s shape……was definitely a Fire Draconian. Then a message window rose among the flames.
-You have won the honour duel.
—————————————————————————————————————
“Kuahahaha!”
Powerful laughter rang out through the mountain. Redian looked at the charred and burnt Bread with scathing eyes.
“Why are you causing such an uproar when you were beaten?”
Redian seemed sour about the duel result. However, Bread just looked at Redian with eyes that indicated she couldn’t understand.
“Women won’t understand. Victory or defeat isn’t important to a man.”
“Are you an idiot? Naturally it is better to win.”
“Ahh, it really doesn’t matter. I’m satisfied now.”
“What about me? My grudge?”
“Well, that isn’t possible anymore.”
Bread poked his finger into his ear and looked at the distant mountains. His attitude was like a husband pretending ignorance while his wife scolded him.
‘Yes it’s not possible…..’
Ark looked at Bread strangely. Honestly, he had been worried about Bread until now. It was a honour duel against Bread….. Even if he won, there was no guarantee that he would stop pursuing Ark. Bread wanted to win so much he studied Ark through the memory crystals for 10 days…….
‘He pursued his target for so many times so there is no guarantee he will be satisfied with this kind of result.’
Bread was level 410. Ark was anxious that Bread would continue to fight even after the Ark won the duel. Bread had chased him all the way to Hwaryong Mountain for a reason he didn’t know. But he was defeated in vain. He thought Bread would think up an excuse or Redian would interfere. But Bread really hadn’t been lying about the grudge being settled with the duel. The result was good despite the trivial issues.
‘It is hard to understand but it is fortunate.’
Ark felt relief in his chest at Bread’s response. Anyway, Ark was quite satisfied with their duel. However, he didn’t want to fight Bread again. It was doubtful that he would win if they fought again.
“Then what’s going to happen now?”
“Well, we won’t bother you anymore. Isn’t that right?”
Bread looked at Redian who replied in a sulky voice.
“Got it, I understand! I’m tired now.”
“Indeed.”
Bread smiled and said. Ark nodded before he suddenly remembered something.
“But I was wondering something. Why have you been chasing me? I don’t remember every seeing you guys.”
“Well, that is…..”
Bread blushed and scratched his head. Ark’s mouth dropped open at Bread’s ensuing description. Ark had thought there was so large grudge since they pursued him so persistently. But the actual reason was ridiculous. The tourists flocked to the dungeon that Bread and Redian were capturing when Seutandal rose. A tourist made a mistake and touched something so they were locked out of the dungeon. So they decided to get revenge on Ark who had caused Seutandal to rise?
“W-what is that? Aren’t I totally innocent?”
“I understand how you feel but….. Well, it is just a game. Hahahahaha! Well, it is just a game but the minor problem is solved so it doesn’t matter anymore.”
‘Isn’t that ridiculous?’
Ark’s throat swelled up at the thought. But like Bread said, the problem was now resolved amicably. Even if he felt irritated towards Bread and Redian, he held it inside him.
‘It is unfair but there is no point stressing about it.’
Then Ark noticed Buksil and Baekgu in a corner and glared at them. While all the problems were settled and he even received an extra 500 fame, he still had to deal with Buksil and Baekgu. Buksil had tried to swindle 800 gold from him when Baekgu was still alive. Ark was also going to make him pay for whining the whole way to Hwaryong Mountain. He even leaked the memory crystal which pressed Ark into a corner…..plus he drank alcohol. Death penalty confirmed!
Baekgu’s crime was guiding Bread and Redian to Hwaryong Mountain. And he called Ark a coward, making him unable to refuse Bread’s challenge…..plus he drank alcohol. Death penalty confirmed!
He wouldn’t go easy on Buksil anymore. When Baekgu supposedly died, he had worried that Buksil would give up the game. However Baekgu had been returned. Now Ark didn’t have to worry about Buksil quitting the game anymore. But he couldn’t educate Buksil and Baekgu right now. After the duel ended, he knew that Baekgu had a huge influence on Bread. When casually talking to Bread, he mentioned the Wolrang clan and realized the reason why Bread had changed his mind about Ark. Anybody who liked dogs couldn’t be a bad person. Thanks to that bias, he came to the conclusion that Ark was a good person.
‘Isn’t he a fool?’
Ark thought it was ridiculous but anyway, Bread was a person who loved dogs. How could he enforce the death penalty on Baekgu in front of Bread?
‘It will have to wait until we separate from Bread.’
Ark thought about what he would do to the two of them after separating from Bread. The two pieces of cattle instinctively sensed Ark’s thoughts and trembled in the corner. Then Bread clicked his tongue and murmured.
“By the way, it seems a little strange to separate now. There are a number of things I still want to talk to you about. Let’s create some friendly ties for when we meet in the future. I’ll treat you so let’s go together. I’d like to talk about the duel again. There’s a good city that is like my hometown not far from here.”
“No, I…..”
There were various reasons why Ark wanted to part from Bread quickly. Just as he was about to refuse, there was a sudden flash from the corner. It was Buksil who had been waiting in the corner for the death penalty. Buksil’s eyes brightened and he ran to Bread before grasping his hand tightly.
“Yes, Hyung-nim. I also don’t want to part from Hyung-nim! Naturally men should drink together after a cool fight. Ark-nim?”
‘That bastard……!’
Ark glared at Buksil through narrowed eyes. Thus Buksil’s life was extended a little bit thanks to Bread and Redian. Ark couldn’t refuse anymore thanks to Buksil. Come to think of it, it might be better to annoy Buksil and Baekgu for a bit.
‘Huhuhuhuhu, stupid fools, you dug your own grave. Just wait.’
Ark inwardly smiled wickedly before nodding.
“I understand. Let’s have a drink in the village.”
“Good. We communicate well. Hahahaha, let’s go!”
Bread laughed powerfully and led the way.
