Chapter 148

“It’s fun when it comes out like that!”

Director Lim was favorable to Min-jun’s reaction.

It was also the painting he wanted, and on the other hand, I was also curious about Minjun’s actual skills.

At the second gateway, I wondered what kind of picture would be shown.

“Then, let’s start the second gateway! Participants who have passed the first gate, please move to one side of the wall.”

Following Director Lim’s guidance, the surviving (?) participants lined up in a row.

“Yeah, are you going to fight for life? There must be some advantage!”

“Right, it will be a game with trainees like us?! There must be some kind of handicap!”

“Let’s try until we try our best.”

Participants thought there would be some handicap.

But contrary to what they think.

Handicap did not exist.

Quite literally.

You have to win the battle against the active hunter!

It was to have a special opportunity to participate in Guild Wars.

Eventually, the members of the ‘Ark Guild’ lined up opposite the participants.

It was majestic and grand.

The guild member in front of Minjun did the same.

Soon after, a brief explanation from Director Lim was added about the confrontational structure.

“In the match, the guild members standing here call each other by name. The participant whose name is called can immediately compete with the guild member.”

At least, the way guild members had to choose the contestants they wanted to face.

The participants were nervous that they would face off against a star guild member representing the Ark Guild.

“Please, please avoid Choi Tae-wook.”

“no. How high is Kim In-geon’s stock price these days… .”

“What about Heo Sang-hyun… . There really is no other line.”

Unknown Arc Guild,

Literally, there was only one guild member and one outstanding opponent.

Meanwhile, the Ark Guild members called out the names of the participants one by one each time they were handed a microphone.

“I will call the 23rd contestant Hwang Taek-eui.”

“I will call the 54th contestant, Shin Young-seok.”

“I will call the third contestant Kim Jae-hwi.”

Participants whose names were called immediately stood in front of their guild members.

All in all, the guild members’ physical abilities overwhelmed the participants.

Skills are also skills.

I don’t know if it’s because the original body weight class is so different.

It was the second gateway that made me even more intimidated.

And, Minjun was also called.

“I will call the 21st contestant, Cha Min-joon.”

The guild member who called Min-jun was none other than Kim In-geon.

He is now in his first year since entering the ‘Ark Guild’.

With a youthful face and a slim body, he had the image of a handsome man you would see in college.

‘It’s Kim In-gun… .’

These days, he is a person who is raising his stock price even within the Ark Guild.

Using the ax he held in both hands, wielding mighty power, he stood tall as a promising player even within the Ark Guild.

On the other hand, Min-joon quickly approached Kim In-geon, who had called him.

Eolchu, it was because the eye level was right.

Even though I was standing face to face with him.

There was an atmosphere that seemed like he would never be overwhelmed by Kim In-gun.

***

All eyes were focused on one spot.

Most of them are most curious about the composition of the confrontation between Cha Min-joon and Kim In-gun.

After all, they were two people who were well-received by their respective affiliates (?).

Interest could only grow.

Also, Kim In-geon knows that he is also a graduate of the Jenix Academy.

Even the title to call Minjun was unusual.

“It is an honor. Because I got to compete with the junior who is getting the most attention these days at Xenix.”

Kim In-gun spoke first.

His gaze was directed only at Min-jun, along with a somewhat spleen-looking expression.

Min-joon also had a question about Kim In-gun.

“Is there any reason why you singled out me?”

“Because I won,”

“… ?”

At first, wanting to know what that meant, Minjun asked again.

“What do you mean? Did you win?”

“Would you understand if I said there weren’t just one or two people who wanted to compete with your juniors?”

Ssik-

As if Kim In-geon had defeated numerous competitors.

He was consistent in his triumphant appearance.

What this means.

It could be interpreted that Kim In-gun took the opportunity to choose the option himself among the numerous guild members who wanted to compete with Cha Min-jun.

Then, among the guild members who are now spread on both sides of Kim In-geon.

Is he the most versatile and overwhelming hunter here?

Min-jun thought that it would have to be judged by first bumping into the body.

‘It’s a pity that there is no information.’

Except for the fact that there is a star in the Ark Guild.

Minjun also seemed to be able to feel it if he competed with him.

At the same time as Kim In-geon’s last call.

The second gateway started right away.

“Then, please take care of me. junior.”

“I am… What?!”

aaa-

before the words are finished.

Kim In-gun instantly lifted his right foot and tried to kick Min-jun in the abdomen.

I could have been taken aback by the momentary motion.

Minjun immediately tried back tumbling.

Fortunately, he evaded at the right time.

There were no major blows.

‘You did well to focus your magic on the lower body as usual. It was just as likely to happen.’

When this one-on-one confrontation composition unfolds.

The moment of being caught off guard was well expressed in [Father’s Palace] in every situation.

Placing mana on the lower body during normal times is useful for increasing the evasion ability.

On the other hand, Kim In-gun seems to be disappointed with Min-joon’s agility.

You tasted it.

write-

“Huh, that’s pretty good too.”

“You are quite sloppy, senior. Glad I’m younger If I was at your age, I think I probably wouldn’t have been beaten.”

“what?”

“Your words suddenly became short, senior.”

I wanted to use the expression red banjang at a time like this.

Who was the first to act rudely?

Kim In-gun seemed to be in a bad mood, and his impression was hardening.

“Then, it was fate that we met like this. As a senpai, shall we go in with some discipline?!”

“I look forward to it.”

Choek- Choek-

Make the ax held in both hands.

Kim In-gun recklessly put pressure on Min-joon.

Indeed. Among the outstanding guild members, it was a part where we could understand why he wanted to face Minjun so much.

‘Was this the method in the first place?’

The second gateway begins, and Kim In-geon pushes Min-joon for a long time.

I think it’s the intention of not giving distance.

Even Min-jun hadn’t had a chance to hold the bowstring yet.

It was to the point where it felt as if Minjun’s bow was becoming a shield against the random attacks of the axe.

“My lovely junior, you’ll break your bow after that.”

“I don’t think it’s your business, sir?”

“Then I was worried that I might not be able to watch the Guild Wars.”

Kim In-gun was sarcastic.

It seemed that he had no intention of stopping this axe-slicing, which was close to chopping up right now.

Because it was such an overwhelming performance.

Including Chief Lim looking at the scene.

The contestants who had already suffered the ordeal of elimination had the same thoughts all along.

“Even though I say Cha Min-joon. What kind of atmosphere is this?”

“Look at Kim In-gun’s eyes. It’s no different from a perfect hunting dog.”

“What is a hunting dog to you, senior? A hound.”

However, even from the point of view of Director Lim, the expression ‘hunting dog’ was never wrong.

Director Lim was the one who accepted Kim In-gun as a guild member of the ‘Ark Guild’.

Being himself, I could roughly read his eyes.

“That’s right, the look in your eyes during the joining test. Your eyes look full of poison. Hopefully… .”

Kim In-gun’s eyes were a year ago.

It looked very similar to the time I saw the guild entrance test here.

Eyes that seemed to be filled with poison.

At that time, Kim In-geon was the head of Im who impressed me so much.

It reminded me of how he looked when I first saw him.

Even at that time.

During the guild entrance test, it was enough to almost tear the monsters that appear each round to shreds.

Kim In-gun’s ax stroke was truly unconventional.

Because of these old thoughts, Director Lim suddenly had such a thought on the one hand.

“Hopefully… . There will come a situation where no one can stop it.”

***

‘Shall we try to concentrate?’

Min-jun, who had been concentrating on identifying Kim In-gun’s tendencies all along.

Perhaps this was enough, Min-jun immediately increased his speed.

Swish- Swish-

“I guess the warm-up is over now?”

It seemed that Kim In-geon was interested in Min-joon’s speed, which was clearly different from before.

But, just to think so.

It was Minjun’s speed that exceeded expectations.

Swish- Swish-

To the extent that Min-jun looked ahead to Kim In-geon’s ax, which was close to hacking.

I started dodging quickly.

Also, the gap between the two, which seemed like it would never get farther away, began to widen.

“Here it is, senior!”

“Kheop!”

In a way.

It felt like Kim In-gun could not keep up with Min-joon’s pace.

At least, now there is a gap where you can pull a bowstring that you have never even pulled.

Faaat- Paaat-

“Where!”

Even so, Min-jun’s counterattack didn’t make Kim In-geon go easy on him.

Effortlessly dodged the arrows, or even lightly split dozens of arrows flying in front of him with a two-handed axe.

Scrap- Scrap-

Minjun was also thinking that he would not be an easygoing opponent.

Unlike the hunters I’ve competed with so far.

Kim In-gun had fairly rapid brain rotation and patterns that made it impossible to detect which attack would come in.

Even after warming up.

Minjun thought that the gateway would never end in a short time.

If so, is there no break-even law?

Not necessarily, but it wasn’t.

Like I said earlier.

Considering that Kim In-geon has only been in the Ark Guild for a year, if you create a confrontation in a way you haven’t experienced before… .

It seemed clear that Kim In-geon’s gap would be clearly revealed.

‘Let’s go as far as we can see.’
