The Genius Assassin Who Does It All Himself

chapter 26



To Ulsan (1)

【Skill Book – Back Attack】

【Special Note: Assassin Only】

[When attacking the target from behind, the damage is increased by 33% compared to the previous attack.]

It is a passive skill.

There is no need to think while using it, and it does not consume mana separately, so it does not stimulate mana hypersensitivity.

In the first place, thanks to the lateral movement, it was a strong force that often had to attack from the rear.

I can’t help but feel good that a skill book that can bring unconditional synergy to such a self has appeared.

learned right away.

You can see the effect right away from the next battle, and in terms of efficiency, it’s a skill that won’t betray you.

【Shadow Step】

【Skill Proficiency: Lv. Max】

【After creating and moving five shadows, you can move instantly by designating one shadow.】

【The shadow disappears immediately if it moves out of a radius of 100m or receives physical damage.】

【The unconsciously reflected shadow imitates the movement of the owner, and each moves in a different way.】

I also finished checking the shadow walk.

It is much more upgraded than the Shadow Walk that Remnant used to use, perhaps thanks to the maximal level of proficiency.

“The level has also risen.”

On the other hand, I also reached level 33.

As always, bonus points invested in stamina. I also checked the overall stats, which had been indifferent for a while.

【Shin Ganghu Lv.33】

【Class: Assassin】

[Special Talent: Fairly good main power / Very good torso vision]

【Muscle 70】【Agility 60】

【Health 198】【Mana 20】

【Anticipation 45】【Ability 70】

Compared to before escaping from the Qingmyeong camp, it was definitely different enough to be appropriate for the word metamorphosis.

The weakling’s body, which was level 10 and 10 stamina, now has the stamina that an athlete would not envy.

Of course, when congenital mana hypersensitivity is activated, it becomes a f*cking body that takes a 3-minute countdown.

In any case, the foundation to endure that time was created.

The picture was different from when I immediately felt the threat of life before.

That amount of mana was enough.

Anyway, the power to pull mana is much higher than other hunters, so there is no need to worry about supply and demand.

“It’s just that I’ve done my job as a human being, but there’s still a long way to go.”

I wasn’t all that happy. I don’t really have that thought.

Kang-hoo moved on, focusing only on the fact that he was more able to endure than before.

This is because it is also time to meet the main boss soon in this micro-dungeon.

I’ve never met Boss before, but it was all too easy to get his name out.

because… … .

“After Xinjiang.”

Because the other me is the main boss of this dungeon.

same time.

A man who suddenly comes to his office and looks at Chae Kwan-hyung, who is drinking strong whiskey.

The person who serves even Chae Kwan-hyung as his superior.

It was Jang Si-hwan, the owner and founder of the Jeonghwa Guild.

Because the two of them were close friends who transcended their relationship with each other.

The rudeness of coming to him and drinking without saying anything was not a problem.

Jang Si-hwan stood up from his seat.

Then her long hair flew off.

His long black hair, which reached all the way down to his shoulders, was so fine that the word radiance immediately came to mind.

Jang Si-hwan asked Chae Kwan-hyung.

“What is it?”

“One of my favorite gadgets is broken. Also, the research on Ahn Young-ho was also canceled.”

“Isn’t that kind of common?”

Unlike Chae Kwan-hyung, who was frantic, Jang Si-hwan rather grinned and patted him on the shoulder.

However, Chae Kwan-hyeong glanced at Jang Si-hwan as if asking if a person could be carefree like that and added a comment.

“There’s nothing more f*cked up than having things go wrong.”

“Kwan hyung. Minor failures and backtracking don’t matter to us. A bright future is already out there.”

“What is bright! X feet.”

“Our dreams will definitely come true. The one who blocks that dream will of course become an enemy and become a handful of ashes.”

“Jang Si-hwan. Don’t be too optimistic. The unconditional can become unconditional.”

“Even if one or two of those small pikes disappeared, our future won’t change. okay?”

Jang Si-hwan, whose expression suddenly changed in an instant, showed contempt for the dead Heo Jeong-tae and the disappearing Ahn Young-ho.

Just because one or two ‘insignificant’ guys disappeared and I missed it, the look in my eyes asked me why I gave it so much meaning.

Jang Si-hwan continued to speak.

“The world revolves around me. I am justice, I am good, I am the way. Nothing can stop us, so don’t get serious alone.”

“… … Are you going to become the main character of the world?”

Chae Kwan-hyung spat out a sharp word to his friend and rival, Jang Si-hwan.

Then Sihwan Jang nodded his head with a benevolent expression as usual.

“huh. I am the main character.”

Ganghu, who had reached the peak of the battle, was more interested in the battle with ‘another me’.

The difficulty itself was rather lower than that of the remnant that I dealt with earlier. Because it’s a fight with yourself.

Another Xin Kang-hu, who had the same thoughts and the same number of goals, was an enemy that was too easy to predict in that sense.

Isn’t that the age of the past?

There was nothing to be afraid of, fighting against the past before development, not the future self that was more developed than now.

I had no choice but to struggle with the linking attack that I just came up with on the fly.

“Hey Kang. I don’t just use daggers. There is always a second, third plan. But you don’t seem to have it.”

Watching Kang Hu stumble, he tapped him on the shoulder.

Rather than encouragement, it was a kind of ceremony that hinted at the end that would soon come to the guy.

just as expected.

“Cool!”

The guy who couldn’t block the link attack that Kang Hu had just devised vomited black blood and died.

Of course, since he was dealing with himself as the boss, there were no new skills to rob.

So, the system message threw a different type of breaking ball, as expected.

This is the reward that Jang Si-hwan also got in the original work.

[Skill enhancement (1 time)]

Opportunity to upgrade only for skills with maximum proficiency.

strengthen the skill

In the case of Ganghu, there were no skills that could be limited as all skills had the maximum proficiency thanks to the constellation effect.

As much as it can be used for the purpose of ‘Ultimate’, it is destructive no matter what skill you upgrade.

These skill enhancement rewards were extremely rare even in dungeons.

Speaking of the numbers game called probability, you can easily attach a statistic of less than 0.001%.

Not only that, but in order to see this effect, you need a skill with maximum proficiency unconditionally.

It is never easy to have such skills in advance. That’s a tough requirement.

“Hold on for now.”

Kang Hu decided to leave the opportunity first.

There are a few skills that come up as candidates, but I’m not sure yet.

Anyway, if you set your mind to it, you can immediately strengthen it at that moment, so there was no need to be in a hurry.

Right then.

【Chronic Stone – Special Material】

“This was a windfall.”

An additional loot appeared from the dead ‘self’.

I thought it was a windfall when I got the skill book from Janyeong earlier. It looks like things are going well.

Redstone is really precious.

This is because it is a necessary material to upgrade item grades or unlock hidden options.

You can’t buy it even with money, and even if you can buy it, there is no price limit. Calling is worth it

That call may go to hundreds of millions, not billions, but more.

Of course, if you sell this, there is a 99.9% chance that criminals with their eyes turned over will gather rather than honest buyers.

So it was good not to think about selling it for a while.

“If I fell into Jang Si-hwan’s hands, I would have felt sick to my stomach.”

Kang Hu nodded.

There was an impromptu aspect, but thanks to recalling memories, it came well and benefited a lot.

shadow step.

strengthen skills.

Redstone.

It is a skill that is not easily obtainable, and it is an opportunity that someone will not get even if it takes a lifetime.

The ball is over.

For now, I was thinking of going back to Lee Ye-rin.

I have thoughts about going to Ground Zero and going back, but I still feel like my skills are lacking.

It is a place that is no different from the crystallization of all kinds of variables where there is no such thing as an appropriate level or a recommended level.

In a word, the wilds of hunters.

That’s why there was definitely a problem with the clumsy challenge spirit alone.

Instead, he ripped off a more expensive request from Lee Ye-rin, and made a plan to get a better item with this.

This is because basic item settings are as important as leveling up.

Even at the same level, the composition was really important because depending on which items were set, the perceived power could differ by several orders of magnitude.

* * *

The next morning, morning.

Kang-hu arrived at the place he had arranged with Lee Ye-rin the day before and met her.

As always, the meeting place would be Daejeon Station, but today’s meeting took place at Pyeongtaek Station.

So, as soon as she saw Ganghu, the content of Lee Ye-rin’s rhyme was also a topic about the changed place.

“Isn’t the place a bit surprising?”

“Every time it’s Daejeon Station, it’s even weirder.”

“but. That’s right.”

“Heo Jeong-tae took over well.”

“I was still contacted. I heard you said it was a request from us? Hoho, I didn’t ask for that.”

Kang Hu only nodded.

I didn’t say it directly, but in fact, this is business.

If you slightly mention the name of the mercenary group you are a client of, and raise that level… … .

Of course, the mercenary corps would ask the requester for a better, more useful request.

“Before talking about the next request, there is something I really want to tell you. Cha So-hee, do you know?”

“I know. I know you’re following me.”

“Did Seoyeon tell you?”

“yes.”

“that’s right. It looks like Eclipse is chasing it, but I put my eyes on it because I thought it might help Seon-gyu.”

“hmm.”

“If Cha So-hee’s location report comes in, I will continue to send security texts to Seon-gyu.”

“Thank you for the favor.”

“Well, it’s not like using expensive manpower. There is a guy under me who likes this kind of tailing. Ho Ho.”

Kang Hu gave only appropriate thanks.

Wasn’t it the situation that Lee Ye-rin was doing the favor first, and she didn’t ask for it?

Thank you, but you don’t have to be authoritative.

Rather, it was interpreted that Lee Ye-rin found herself attractive enough to care so much.

Perhaps thinking that the conversation was enough, Lee Ye-rin immediately changed the topic.

“Originally, what I was going to ask Seon-gyu for was ‘infiltration’. But I think we should change it to ‘Assassination’.”

“Assassination.”

There’s nothing you can’t do if you have money.

And usually assassination quests come in targeting guys who have a reason to die.

It is true that Lee Ye-rin is a person in the gray area, but she is not someone who kills anyone.

There was a very high possibility that she received the request after filtering it once in her dimension.

So this target must be someone worth killing.

“Take a look.”

Lee Ye-rin held out the documents.

And as soon as he saw the first page, Kanghu’s expression hardened slightly.

“The Butcher of Ulsan?”

It had a familiar name.
