thousand eyes

“Hey, you did a great job today!”

“okay. But starting tomorrow, I will have to reduce the number of people to three again.”

“but. The number has been greatly reduced. How long can this not go?”

Carl grunted as he went to Haim’s house after finishing his day’s work.

“As soon as Gunther’s party arrives, the number drops drastically. As expected, talented guys are different.”

Gunter’s party is a large party with a total of 14 people, and they are divided into 7 people and they are roaming the forest. As there were many of them, the three-eyed gnolls also flocked to them, and the forest became quite quiet. In addition, I saw everyone returning with a full bag of leather, as if their skills were quite good.

No matter how hard Hyun-joon kills, the speed is bound to be slow compared to Gunter’s party, which divides into two teams and sweeps through the forest. If you give up the skin, you can hunt and kill the forest alone, but it’s a waste to blow up this opportunity to make a lot of money.

“Well, nothing special. Are you still earning enough?”

Killed 16 today. It also had to go deeper into the forest than before. However, the money still falling is 380 fairy tales, and almost 60 fairy tales fall to Carl.

If you ate 60 fairy tales a day and complained, there was nothing to say even if you were stoned to death.

“Still, regret is regret.”

“Well, not really.”

Hyeon-joon also regrets that Karma’s income has decreased. Still, I should be able to buy Mana Affinity 1 tomorrow. With the 80 karma I got today, I now have 921 karma. If you decide to kill the three-eyed gnoll tomorrow, you will be able to collect a thousand karmas.

Mana! Seeing the transcendent fighting power of the Paladins and Combat Priests, how desperately they wanted it! that’s right in front of you now In my heart, I want to roam the forest and kill the three-eyed gnoll, whether the sun goes down or not, but it is still dangerous to enter the forest at night. Other adventurers will be suspicious of it.

The two went back to Haim’s house to wash, fix the equipment, and eat. And, as always, we headed to the tavern. As soon as Hyun-joon entered the bar, he scanned the inside to find Gunther. When our eyes met, Hyeon-jun nodded slightly, and Gunther got up and came closer.

“How is it, did you earn a lot?”

“okay. There are 16 today.”

“You killed a lot by yourself. There are about 20 of us with 14 of us.”

The two ordered a beer and sat down. Soon the beer came out, and after clinking the glasses, I moistened my mouth slightly.

“What do you think?”

“The number is decreasing quickly, but that also means it is growing just as fast.”

They kill dozens of them a day, but the next day is less than that, but the forest is full again. obviously weird As this situation repeats itself, others are only worried about losing their income, but both Hyeon-jun and Gunther have other thoughts.

“I heard you killed a goblin in Bimarn? how is it?”

“It doesn’t feel like that. At that time, it was rather overflowing with goblins.”

“Hmm… .”

“How far have you been?”

“When I came out, thinking about the time, I went inside quite a bit. They say there is almost no three-eyed game in the south.”

“Is there anything strange about the forest?”

“The forest was oddly quiet.”

“Have you seen any other creature besides the three-eyed gnoll?”

“… … There is none.”

Gunther hardened his face and tilted his beer glass.

Hyun-joon only noticed today that he had never seen another creature in the forest. I asked the adventurers, but they didn’t think it was a big deal, only saying that they ran away to avoid the three-eyed play.

However, Hyeon-jun already knew that something unusual was happening in the forest, and he couldn’t take it lightly.

“It gives me goosebumps… .”

“I plan to do it for a day or two more. The military will take care of the rest.”

“Sweet, I want to step out too, but opportunities like this aren’t common… .”

Hyunjoon quietly tilted his glass.

You can’t talk about Gunther Party’s work. He’ll have to figure it out.

“Does it seem dangerous?”

“You ask knowingly.”

“Hmm, I’ll have to jump out tomorrow.”

“suddenly?”

Gunther said with a slightly melancholy smile.

“It’s better than dying at all.”

“…….”

Hyunjoon raised his glass to him, bumped into it, and drank his beer. It is rude to ask about the other person’s past on this floor. Gunther must have had a similar situation.

“You too, get out of your way quickly. Don’t die just saying you’ll do it for one more day.”

“Do you know how to do it well?”

“It doesn’t.”

Hyun-joon drank beer with Gunther and went back to Haim’s house to sleep.

One more hard day and you can buy 1 mana affinity. I closed my eyes, holding on to that bulging anticipation.

***

Ding Ding Ding Ding Ding!

Hyeonjun jumped up and grabbed the sword standing next to the bed.

‘what?’

Ding Ding Ding!

The bell is ringing noisily. When I open the window, the sun is about to rise. And Hyun-joon’s sensitive ears picked up the faint ringing of the bell.

“It’s a three-eyed game! The three-eyed game is coming!”

Hyeonjun hit the wall on the side of the knife and hurriedly began to put on his armor.

“what!”

“Three-eyed play broke in!”

“what!”

After answering Carl screaming in the next room, Hyeon-jun even put on his helmet and ran down the first floor. On the first floor, Haim and Emma were walking around with anxious faces.

“Three-eyed gnolls have come in. Stay home.”

“Ah, I see.”

Hyeon-jun left them and immediately ran out and ran in the direction of the bell. it is west Armed people came out of the inn or at home and started running. If it were a normal village, most of them wouldn’t take it seriously when they heard the sound of a bell, but the Red Forest Village, which almost died in the attack of the gnolls just a few days ago, responded quickly. This is because the fear of the Three-Eyed Knoll is deeply etched into his brain.

“The three-eyed game is coming!”

Hyeon-jun found the guard frantically ringing a bell on top of the fence and climbed the fence at once. Already, the guards are scrambling with the three-eyed gnolls who are trying to climb up the fence with their weapons.

Fortunately, these guys are ignorantly clinging to the fence, like juggling, whether the road is blocked or not. Even though there is an entrance a little side, it was like that. There is no sign of moving as intelligently as before.

Hyeon-jun immediately took out his longsword and ran over the wooden fence, cutting down those who came up to the place where the guards couldn’t cover.

‘They’re strange.’

Hyeonjun cut them both at once and noticed that the three-eyed Knoll was in a strange state. Once the sword entered very smoothly. It’s like plain leather. There is also less sagging compared to before.

‘It’s deformed.’

In addition, some parts of the body are distorted or there are no arms or legs at all. Some have no legs, so they jump and even crawl on the floor. And there is a guy who struggles under a wooden fence because he has no hand. However, you can see that they all have one more eye in common.

“June! You came!”

“Is the other place okay?”

The captain of the guard who found Hyeon-jun said with a smile.

“Other places are fine. just rushed here But these guys… .”

“Your condition is strange.”

“What is going on in the forest… .”

“I’ll have to stop and see.”

The three-eyed gnolls were in such a strange state that the guards were able to relax, and when the adventurers arrived, they quickly found stability on the wooden fence. Hyeon-jun also jumped over the wooden fence and killed the three-eyed gnolls. It’s an emergency, but considering the previous attack, it’s nothing. Everyone has experience, so they knew what to do and did a good job.

Above all, the three-eyed game has become too weak. He was quite strong, but his skin was thin and there were so many deformed ones that it was difficult to control his body. However, as time passed, people’s fatigue accumulated in an instant. It was because they had to wake up early in the morning when the sun just rose to fight, and they had to pick up their weapons and push them away because there was nothing to throw because they were not prepared properly.

The number of three-eyed gnolls is too many. If you keep going like this, people will get tired and fall out first.

‘We have to flip the plate.’

Hyeonjun turned his head and looked over the wooden fence. Then I found Gunter’s party. Gunther is splitting the heads of those who come up with a large halberd. In addition, other party members are also armed with long weapons such as halberds and spears, and are moving in perfect order, striking and killing those who come up.

“Gunther!”

From noble mtl dot com

“What, Jun?”

“I have to go out of the wooden fence through the entrance and hit the back. Get behind me.”

“What nonsense is that?”

A man next to Gunther said with a frown. Would you go outside when it wasn’t enough even if you wore a wooden fence and fought? If you’re going to die, you’re going to die alone. Why bring them in?

“It’s too reckless.”

“That’s it.”

Hyunjoon withdrew without hesitation. Then he hit the head of the three-eyed gnoll, who was about to climb up, and shouted loudly.

“I will go out through the entrance and hit them in the back! Those who supported me, follow me!”

Then he hurried down the inside of the wooden fence.

“what….”

Gunther was dumbfounded, but something even more absurd happened. Ten adventurers descended the fence and followed them.

Without hesitation, they ran and stood behind Hyeon-jun, who was standing in front of the entrance. And when Hyeonjun nodded, he opened the door that the guards had closed.

“I’m not crazy!”

Gunther’s party members screamed. If you open the door in this situation, everyone who enters there will die. However, the guards opened the door without hesitation, and Hyeon-jun slowly started running out. The adventurers followed suit, gradually increasing the speed.

“Wow!”

“June! June! June! June!”

Cheers poured out from the wooden fence at once.

All of them clearly remember Hyeon-jun, who blocked the entrance alone, killed dozens of three-eyed gnolls, and chased and put an end to the three-eyed gnolls who ran away after defeating the head. The sight will be unforgettable for the rest of my life.

The air heated up as the morale soared like a fire. Gunther’s party was mesmerized by the sight. In particular, Gunther shuddered at the goose bumps running down his spine. It’s a very familiar air. The thrill I felt in the middle of the battlefield!

“aaa!”

Following Hyeon-jun, ten adventurers raised their shields and thrust out their spears, striking the three-eyed gnoll in the back. Unlike before, the spear went in and the guys died in an instant.

The adventurers didn’t force themselves, but kept their positions by making the formation solid, and when Hyeon-jun moved forward, they moved forward little by little, creating space for Hyeon-jun. It is because they are not properly trained, so they cannot advance quickly while keeping the ceremony. And those on the fence who saw Hyeon-jun swinging his sword clearly this time cheered again.

“Wow!”

Leaping forward, he struck the three-eyed gnoll in the head, and, holding his breath, the recoil broke the sword and decapitated the other. Then, after punching the face of the one who rushed from the other side with his elbow and cutting his chest, he turned around without stopping and cut off the other guy’s head. I jumped up and bit the side of the attacking guy, raised his stomach and slashed it, kicked the chest of the guy running in front of me and pushed it off, then got caught up in it and rushed to the place where he hesitated and cut the two guys with a single knife and retreated again.

Hyeon-joon raged like a storm that cut down everything within a few meters around him and trampled on the Three-Eyed Gnoll’s rear. Even so, he did not go too deep alone, keeping pace with the adventurers who would protect his back. Slowly, but surely, killing the Three-Eyed Gnoll’s rear. From above the wooden fence, it looked as if the grass was being cut with a mower.

“June! June! June! June!”

Morale soared to no end. After seeing the scene, no one thought that he could die here. Only the captain of the guard runs around screaming and screaming to keep the agitated people from acting out.

“Huh, you’re not a real adventurer.”

Gunther muttered. Hyeon-joon turned the precarious charter upside down at once. Seeing him slap the Three-Eyed Gnoll in the rear and trample it, it was like being in the middle of a battlefield.

On top of that, this boiling shout and firm belief that we will never lose. He knows this very well.

“It’s like a knight, isn’t it?”

Gunther’s murmurs were drowned out by the shouts.
