Chapter 875

“Ahh... Isn’t this great?” Hyeonu exclaimed when he saw the baptism of divine power shot from Kim Seokjung’s fist.

Kim Seokjung’s one shot instant kill skill—this was clearly an aspect of the fifth class advancement.

-It is great, but...

-Now that we’ve seen something...

-Of course, Brother Sijong is great.

-I think he has caught up to Rain.

-Now the 1st and 2nd place in the rankings are in one guild.

However, the reaction of the viewers’ wasn’t as intense as Hyeonu’s. They were really lukewarm and not interested for some reason. Objectively, Kim Seokjung’s performance was very surprising, so this was definitely a strange reaction.

‘It is because of me.’

Hyeonu found the cause. It was due to the battle that Hyeonu had shown before. He slaughtered tens of thousands of undead in a short period of time. Hundreds of undead were cut when the Mixed Sky Sword stretched out and more than a dozen skeletons exploded when a punch was thrown.

‘It is far short of 1,000,000...’

 

[Monsters killed 234,127/1,000,000]

 

It was the stage 6 condition of Hyeonu’s epic item, Rainbow of Desires. It wasn’t possible to kill just any monsters. It had to be at most 20 levels lower than Hyeonu’s current level. That was how it was recognized. Anything below that meant nothing.

‘Even so, it was raised tremendously in a short period of time due to the siege.’

It wasn’t his intention, but he filled up quite a lot of the unlocking condition when dealing with the undead army. There was still a long way to go, but it could be said that the first step was successfully taken.

“There is no other monk like this. This type of power is really great, everyone.”

Hyeonu started praising Kim Seokjung’s attack to the lukewarm viewers.

-That is true, but... something feels regrettable.

-That Hyung-nim will end it with that blow.

-It isn’t just Sijong hyung-nim, they are all like that.

-The one here is the strange person.

-That’s right. Alley Leader is special while the others are just the default.

Nevertheless, the reaction of the viewers didn’t change much. It was true that Kim Seokjung’s attack was great, but they used the reason that it wasn’t as continuous as Hyeonu’s attacks to find fault with it.

‘It isn’t that much...’

Hyeonu shook his head. Kim Seokjung had a cooldown time on his skills, unlike Hyeonu, but it wasn’t enough to end it with one or two skills as the viewers said.

“Aren’t you guys taking the fifth class advancement too lightly?”

Hyeonu burst out laughing. The current situation was happening because there wasn’t enough information about the fifth class advancement. Otherwise, it was impossible to explain it.

‘I got three things alone...’

Among them were two instantaneous skills. One was a big hit and the other could be used in a situation of one against many. Add what he had previously obtained and he had 10 instantaneous skills. Additionally, Hyeonu’s class, the Knight of Keon, was extremely rare.

Meanwhile, the priest class was different. Depending on how they played, their contributions to the temple varied greatly. Temple contributions were exchanged for various skills. Very few people obtained items from temple contributions. Items could be bought with money, but skills couldn’t be bought with money. There were no fools who would pick an item from among this.

“Hyung-nim’s skills won’t end here. Just watch for a moment.”

Hyeonu crossed his arms and continued to observe Kim Seokjung.

-Yes, let’s take a look before speaking.

-Hyung-nim did only one thing.

-By the way, the next one to reach a fifth class advancement after Alley Leader is a monk...

-What about a monk? To be honest, the paladin and monks have the best balance.

The viewers couldn’t concentrate on Hyeonu’s words and grabbed a different topic to continue chatting. Hyeonu saw it and shook his head.

‘There are so many people that it will become mixed even if a few people speak.’

A laugh emerged. He wondered if this was the disadvantage of a live stream that was watched by tens of millions of people.

Hyeonu’s attention was focused on Kim Seokjung. The viewers also started to focus on Kim Seokjung. Kim Seokjung’s appearance was sufficient to attract people’s attention.

After the blow that blew away hundreds of undead, Kim Seokjung ran through the space he had created. The undead started to fill the newly created space. Kim Seokjung’s surroundings were once again filled with undead in an instant. Kim Seokjung turned his head to look around before kicking off from the ground and soared into the sky.

“It is nice to have a lot!”

Kim Seokjung burst out laughing when he saw the group of undead. Kim Seokjung rose into the air and raised his arms above his head. There was a strong vibration as golden magic power rushed toward Kim Seokjung’s palm to form a sphere.

-Isn’t this a skill I’ve seen a lot?

-I saw it in a cartoon.

-Give me strength... isn’t it that cartoon?

-It seems right. Even if it isn’t that one, there are many cartoons that are like that.

-That’s right, it feels a bit cliche. It appears everywhere ㅋㅋㅋ

It was as the viewers said. Kim Seokjung’s appearance was something that they had seen many times elsewhere. Raising one’s arms above their heads and gathering magic power to create something in the shape of a sphere. It wasn’t unfamiliar, but it was always eye-catching. Usually these skills were very powerful.

‘Tang-E showed it a few times... everyone doesn’t seem to remember, but I have seen it.’

Hyeonu smiled bitterly. There was definitely a time when Tang-E showed a bigger and more gorgeous sun than what Kim Seokjung was showing.

‘Well... it is understandable that they don’t remember...’

It was extremely rare for Tang-E to use such magic and he had used magic of various attributes the whole time. It wasn’t easy to think of Tang-E from Kim Seokjung’s appearance. Even at this moment, the sphere on Kim Seokjung’s palm was growing larger. What used to be the size of an egg instantly grew to the size of a watermelon.

It didn’t end there. The sphere continued to grow. In an instant, it became a sphere with a diameter of over a few meters.

“This much... is it a mini sun? The color is also similar. I think you can say that...”

-Is this the first time I’ve seen such a skill? It seems to be a skill he learned after the fifth class advancement.

-It should only be the F proficiency, but it is already that big?

-It is worth seeing when the proficiency grows later.

-Then it must be a real sun. That Hyung-nim follows the god of the sun.

The viewers agreed with Hyeonu this time. Kim Seokjung’s skills were definitely gorgeous and looked good. No, it was simply the best in terms of visuals among the skills of the rankers that had emerged so far. There was an impact.

“Take this!”

Kim Seokjung threw the golden sphere. The sphere that flew toward the undead was literally stuck in the ground. Then the ground exploded. A huge crater was formed. Not only were the undead attacked directly, but the undead nearby couldn’t withstand the explosion and literally became bone fragments that scattered in all directions. The surroundings were covered with dirt and white bones.

“I don’t know if the power is strong because of divine power, but it isn’t a joke.”

Hyeonu felt admiration when he saw the disaster caused by one of Kim Seokjung’s skills.

-Wow, how is that a monk? It is a magician.

-It is cool though. It isn’t like anyone else can keep up.

-Looking at it now, do I see a link to the next one?

-Sijong hyung-nim is flying.

Just then, Kim Seokjung didn’t simply fall. He leaped one more time in the air and jumped between the undead army. Kim Seokjung dug through the undead and smashed the ground with his fists covered with golden pure energy.

The ground shook. At the same time, huge golden thorns protruded from the ground. The bones of the undead who were pierced with the thorns couldn’t even be found. The golden thorns popped up several times and swept everywhere.

“Wow, this looks really good, right?”

This time, Hyeonu let out another cry of pure admiration. It was a skill that Hyeonu didn’t even expect.

-Wow, isn’t that really cool?

-A monk is about endurance.

-Will the fifth class advancement give me that skill?

-I need to go level up quickly.

-I want to use those skills too. I’m currently a third class advancement...

The viewers had the same reaction as Hyeonu. They admired Kim Seokjung’s skills and wanted to use them as well.

‘By the way, a little bit of them are going now...’

Hyeonu shook his head and sighed when he saw that the number of viewers started to decrease little by little.

“Let’s end the siege first.”

Then he flew between the undead.

 

***

 

After around an hour, Hyeonu’s surroundings became quiet. The clacking of the bones was no longer audible, nor could the bizarre cries of the giant corpses be heard. The ghosts had long disappeared.

“Hyung-nim, I think it is over now.”

Hyeonu put the Mixed Sky Sword into the sheath and looked at Kim Seokjung.

“Yes, I think it is over.”

Kim Seokjung nodded toward Hyeonu. Now, only New World and Hyeonu were standing on their ground on their legs. The undead army was wiped out. This meant that ownership of the city was once again transferred to the Yusma Empire.

 

[Restore the lost cities 1/???]

 

At the same time, a message appeared in front of Hyeonu’s eyes. It was a message window signifying that one city had been restored.

‘Okay, I did one.’

Hyeonu felt relieved when he finished taking back the city that he had aimed for. Everything was planned by him, but there were many cases in the world where things didn’t go as planned. He was very happy that a satisfactory picture came out.

“I will take good care of the imperial contributions.”

Gang Junggu approached Hyeonu and smiled. The quest to retake the city was given by the emperor himself. It was consistent with receiving a huge amount of imperial contributions.

-How much will they get?

-It must be at least tens of thousands.

-Recently, those with imperial contributions seem to be a gangster.

-It isn’t something that money can buy... honestly, people with higher titles can be called gangsters. The benefits are good.

The imperial contributions were becoming more and more appreciated every day. The higher the title, the easier it was to deal with the NPCs of the merchant groups that came to their territory. It could also be used to obtain a huge advantage in battles against players. Additionally, in recent times, there were rumors that they might be able to get items or skills using imperial contributions, so it was even more precious.

-Don’t talk nonsense and show the item.

-The siege is over so you have to show it.

-That’s right, I almost didn’t see this.

-I think the hyung-nims can be curious as well.

The viewers took back their interest in the imperial contributions and recalled the two items that Hyeonu obtained by killing the boss monster.

“What would you like to see? The book or the armor?” 

Hyeonu laughed while pulling out the book and white bone armor from the inventory.

-It is armor. The skills are meaningless. It will just make me feel bitter.

-I’m more curious about the item.

-Is the armor effect good?

The viewers achieved unity. It was a very difficult task, but it was successful with the intention of seeing the item.

“You are of the opinion that you want to see the item, not the skill book... okay.”

Hyeonu nodded and put the skill book back into the inventory. Then he grabbed the armor with both hands and muttered, “Item information.”

The information about the white bone armor appeared in front of Hyeonu and the viewers.
