Chapter 27: Unveiling the Hidden
See through what is hidden.
This is an explanation written in the eyes of truth.
At first, I wondered why it was written so vaguely. I thought it would be okay to just know the grade when drawing.
Still, since it was a unique trait, it was insignificant if you thought of it as a kind of mysticism.
But that wasn’t it.
‘It was literally seeing through what was hidden.’
The level of the card that is ‘hidden’ from the user in the drawing system, and even the hiddenness that is now openly hidden.
Do-hyeon really thought about that.
‘Have you seen this crazy trait?’
This is unbalanced, stupid, and just a crazy trait.
Why is Assassin a fraud in PvP?
Well, there are other skills, but aside from backstabbing, the one that stands out the most is stealth.
The assassin’s deliberate and hidden surprise attack was a blow that ignored differences in skill and equipment.
That was the reason why Demrock rankers were afraid of the Assassination Guild.
But what if you can see through that hiding?
‘Rather, you can seize an opportunity when you are off guard.’
Considering the assassin’s characteristic of not having much HP, he could have been helpless at that one opportunity.
Aside from that, just not having to be afraid of hiding was a huge advantage in itself.
And what excites me more than anything is…
‘There may be more hidden abilities besides this?’
There may be other abilities hidden in addition to viewing grades and detecting stealth.
I wanted to find out more about this, but the situation didn’t allow me to do it right now.
Assassin Boy took advantage of Do-hyeon’s momentary distraction to start struggling.
“Ugh… What are you doing, you bastards? Fuck you!”
“Uh… ? Huh!”
In response to his cries, which were almost like a struggle, the sea turtle urgently started pouring out skills.
Their occupations are archer and axe warrior.
When the Assassin Boy made a surprise attack, Eunganmanjia played around with him from a distance, and sometimes when he attacked him at close range, he took care of him.
It was still the same now.
Taaat!
Push-soo-.
Euanmajia’s arrow flew behind the Kwon Do-hae, which was charging like a tank.
Faba Park-!
And not just one shot, but multiple shots.
It was rapid fire, a rare skill. As a result, Do-hyeon had no choice but to let go of his grip on the assassin boy.
As soon as he let go, the assassin boy’s face contorted grimly as he retreated backwards.
“Tsk… ! You are behind now.”
It wasn’t a bluff.
Because the appearance of my colleagues instantly turned the tide. The Euanmajia, which perfectly fires rapid fire from the rear, and the Kwondohae, which reliably protects the front.
And even the assassin himself.
That new X is now surrounded.
“… !?”
… I thought.
Tup. Whirick-.
“Huh?”
Until I saw Do-hyeon using the power of the charging ax warrior to throw him away.
No, can I at least throw that thing on my back?
The sight of him using his power in a flowing manner, to the point where I wondered if martial arts techniques were like that, the scene was like a painting.
Faba Park!
“Ugh! “S***, why are you shooting me!”
“No… … .”
“No…”
What’s even more surprising is that they used the twisted sea waves as a shield to block the arrows, as if they were using Judo.
Because of this, he had to have half of his blood instantly drained by an unfortunate colleague’s arrow.
The moment I paused in response to the embarrassing situation, Do-hyeon moved fiercely, as if he was targeting this moment.
Sigh! Kwasik!
He quickly thrusts the sword into the heart and then strikes with his knee as if he is collapsing.
Instead of stopping there, he grabbed his neck and broke it, and the focus disappeared from his eyes.
At the same time, his body became translucent and he disappeared, leaving behind only his trademark axe.
“Are you… dead?”
“Crazy…”
What did I just see?
Those emotions were equally spread across their faces.
God’Ose is a game that is strictly based on skill. It is an immutable law that those who are adept at fighting and possess stronger skills have an advantage.
But what does that guy mean?
‘Well, I’ve never heard of anything like that.’
He was defeated in an instant without using a single skill.
I was stunned and got goosebumps after seeing that scene, which looked like something I might have seen in a movie.
Below level 16? A poor guy?
‘Don’t give up!’
That thing is just a monster.
An instinctive sense of fear overcame me, and I reacted swiftly.
Whoosh!
I suddenly executed a backward slash and started to flee.
I attempted to use stealth, but it was still on cooldown and wouldn’t activate.
I wasn’t trying to use it to hide, as I was bound to be detected anyway, but I wanted to rely on at least a slight movement speed buff from stealth.
But just then,
“Wow, look at him just throwing it away. What a waste.”
“… … !?”
“… !?”
A voice echoed through the air.
But that voice was too close.
It was as if I could hear it right behind me…
“Damn it! What, what!”
It wasn’t just my imagination, Do-hyeon was actually running alongside me.
Do-hyeon extended his hand towards the Assassin Boy, who screamed in surprise.
Wham!
In an instant, the Assassin Boy, who had been hit in the solar plexus, philtrum, chin, and crook, fell on his butt.
The punch was so fast that it was invisible.
[HP has fallen below 70%.]
[A mark is created.]
The Assassin Boy, who had lost 30% of his vitality in an instant, looked dumbfounded.
Through his eyes, he could see Nganmajia at a glance.
Nganmajia was scared when he saw himself falling and ran away without even looking back.
It was like seeing my past self.
Whoosh-.
Even he was caught.
The distance was still not far, so Do-hyeon closed the gap with a lunge slash and swung his great sword.
The speed was so fast that one would wonder if it was a great sword.
“Ugh, ugh!”
Unfortunately, the speed was too fast for him to live up to his nickname, and Nganmajia fell down with a cut on his back.
His end was similar to that of his friend.
He died by being stabbed in various vital parts, including the heart, as if he were an animal being slaughtered while lying down.
‘Such a bastard… I need to run away now…’
Fortunately, the aggro was focused on Eunganmajia, and the distance increased.
That guy’s skills are all gone, so I might be able to escape now. The moment I slowly took a step back with such hope.
“The mark disappears.”
“Ah…?”
The moment the assassin boy saw the message that appeared before his eyes, he had a hunch.
You can’t run away.
It wasn’t just a feeling. As soon as that message stopped, he felt a presence behind him.
And a black shadow that can be seen at a glance.
This was a phenomenon that even Assassin Boy, who had been an assassin himself, was aware.
“… Catching up?”
If the assassin job’s mascot skill is stealth, its main skill is backstabbing.
A morale skill that turned an assassin into a person-to-person gangster.
Yes, ‘assassin’.
“Why did the prosecutor catch up…?”
…
Those were the Assassin Boy’s last words.
Sigh!
[You will receive a fatal blow proportional to the damage accumulated on the mark.]
[Critical hit!]
[You were killed by player ‘Kaiser.’]
[Your karma value is ‘evil person’.]
[The higher the karma level, the higher the chance of dropping an item.]
… … .
…
Because he had to look at the gray screen before he could even finish speaking.
He died instantly from a single blow.
‘Damn, that’s ridiculous!! That guy is definitely a hack. What a mess the prosecutor is causing! Is your name Kaiser? You’re next.’
The assassin boy went berserk and immediately went into the community and reported this fact.
[You guys be careful of the player named Kaiser. This guy lives in Raven and uses nuclear weapons;;]
[Author: Assassin Joa]
-The prosecutor uses the assassin skill, and the play doesn’t make any sense. From what I see, it looks like they’re using something like an automatic reaction hack or a job hack?
It’s a shame there isn’t a core in the God’Ose, these bastards should beat up Yeong jeong.
… (Low.)
It was typed in furious anger, but surprisingly, no one believed it.
-What is a nuclear weapon? It’s aggro again.
-Do you all know how to get sick?
-Job hacks hahaha, automatic reaction hacks hahaha, there are different kinds of aggro.
-By the way, is your name Kaiser? There are Kaiser fans even among newbies.
Rather, he was an Assassin boy who was treated like a bastard.
Even that wasn’t the end. Is it because he has done so many things?
-Wait a minute, assassinated by Raven? PK?
-Uh?
-Aren’t those bastards the hot Yanghak criminals these days?
-Oh, that’s right. Party member archer ax warrior… Those bastards who took away my weapons.
-Nin was behind.
A quick-witted user who figured out the identity of the Assassin Boy by guessing the Assassin Boy’s writing gathered the angry people and reported it, and an extermination team was formed.
In the end, he couldn’t even get his money’s worth and had to battle with numerous users every time he logged in.
They had a large number of pages and their level was close to graduation level. Their endless killing order was not something they could handle, and it is said that the Assassination Boy and his friends were nowhere to be found in less than a month.
* * *
[You killed the player ‘Assassin Boy’.]
[The boy who assassinated the player is confirmed to be a ‘villain.’ It is recognized as self-defense, so the karma value does not increase.]
[Sword mastery increases.]
[Sword mastery has reached LV9.]
[Your level has increased.]
“oh?”
“Oh?”
I only killed three people, but my level went up.
Since all three of them had reached level 24, it was natural that they had a lot of experience points.
You even get additional experience points if you catch a ‘bad guy’.
Is that all?
[The player Assassin Boy dropped the item.]
The probability of villains dropping equipment items increases significantly.
It’s literally like a walking golden goblin!
‘At a halfway level, he can’t even be a villain.’
In a lawless city, the wicked were generally public enemies.
Even if you do unauthorized PK, your karma level will not increase, and you will gain a lot of experience and items, so it is a loss not to catch it.
Even for moral issues, I don’t feel guilty about catching ‘bad guys’.
That’s why they were sitting ducks in the Ravens.
The moment they moved to the next city, they would be treated more like golden goblins to be chased after, rather than as kings.
In other words, they were making a living here, paying high fees just to engage in PK.
“Indeed.”
Do-hyeon laughed in the face of such vulgarity.
“Now it feels a bit like a game I used to know.”
Do-hyeon was rather pleased with this situation.
Because he was more familiar with the current situation.
In Demrock, this happened as naturally as breathing. There were a lot of lawless areas in that game, so you had to be alert to your surroundings at all times.
As long as it’s an RPG game, there are bound to be people like that, whether it’s a god game or a man game.
Even though God’Ose wasn’t that bad, I knew there were quite a lot of villains.
Because God’Ose was a game where you saw a newbie who had acquired the highest level of characteristics and just did something stupid just because you felt bad.
‘Yeah, that’s normal.’
Arde, which had beginner benefits, was special, and the mentality of the Shield Chief party members was particularly peaceful.
In the future, we will no longer be able to meet only such peaceful users.
In fact, the opposite is probably true.
‘As long as you have the eyes of truth, there will be no worries.’
In such a world, the eyes of truth would play a very important role.
Stealth was a skill that Do-hyeon had to be careful of, and he would prevent it in advance.
Anyway, that’s for later… …
Anyway, that’s for later…
‘Then let’s see what came out.’
Now was the time for the winners to reap the spoils left behind by the losers.
Do-hyeon approached and harvested all the items and was impressed.
