Chapter 203

Sansal shook his head.
“It’s not like I’ve gotten a huge health boost…
There was no difference between his current health and his previous death. If it was a one-hit kill before, it was sure to be a one-hit kill now.
“How do I…?
Sansal pondered what to do.
‘Wait. Maybe it’s not about killing.
As he pondered, a thought struck him, and he turned to look at Ming Hu.
‘He used to die right away, but the way he’s talking to me now…’
When I’d been killed before, I’d been killed before I’d said a word. But now, unlike then, he was talking to her.
“Did you remember?”
Just then, Ming Hu asked. In response to Ming Hu’s question, Shan Shan nodded.
“Yes, I remembered.”
“I see.”
Seeing Myung Hu’s expression of relief, Chansal carefully opened his mouth to speak.
“Are you… Are you going to kill me again?”
After speaking, Shi Yan looked at Ming Hu for a reaction. If Ming Hu’s expression changed for the worse, he’d be out of here as fast as he could, whether he was logging out or using warp scroll.
“You can’t die.
In the past, death wouldn’t have bothered you as much, but not with Mark of Agranecto. When you die, the Mark of Agranecto drops. It could never drop a Demigod-grade item. At Shi Yan’s words, Ming Hu gave him an apologetic look.
“No, I’m sorry about that, I thought you were the wizard of the tower and I killed you.”
“Ah!”
Shanshan’s expression brightened, and Ming Hu thought to himself.
‘It’s not like they’re hurting me…’
He didn’t find that his kills were particularly damaging to him. On the contrary, given the quests he received, it was a huge benefit to him. That’s not all.
“I’m sorry I killed you twice before.
It wasn’t intentional, but he had already been killed twice.
“You don’t want to kill him again, do you?
Furthermore, I realized that there was no point in killing them if it wasn’t going to do anything good or beneficial. That was the moment.
-Gold: Hey, wait a minute. Do you know him well?
Minhyung whispered to me.
-Goldsmith to Goldsmith: No? I just accidentally killed it a few times in the past.
-Goldsmith: Phew, that’s good.
What are you talking about? Ming Hu couldn’t help but wonder at Min Hyung’s whisper.
-Gold to Jung-Seok Jung: What’s the big deal?
-Goldstone: Because I have to kill again.
-Gold to Chung-Seok Jung: What?
Myung Hu, who hadn’t expected to hear the words “kill Ssangsal” coming out of Min Hyung’s mouth, whispered and turned his head to look at Min Hyung in surprise. Minhyung saw the look on Myunghu’s face as he looked at him and whispered back, “You’re right.
-Golden: You don’t realize there’s a bounty on his head, do you?
-GoldenStephen: Bounty?
It was the first time I’d heard it. Minhyung whispered in Myeonghu’s ear.
-Goldstone: The Devil’s Descent has put a huge bounty on that guy. I heard you were coming to hunt him down, so I took two quests in case we met, and the bounty for both quests is 200,000 gold. If you kill him once, you’ll get 200,000 gold! Even if the three of us split it, that’s 60,000 gold per person!
-GoldenStep To: Hulk.
At Minhyung’s whisper, Ming Hu was surprised, and he turned his head back to look at Shanshan. Originally, Ming Hu had no intention of killing him, as there was no benefit to be gained by doing so, but not now that he had heard Min Hyung’s words.
“I should kill him.
He said he wouldn’t kill him, but that was when he wasn’t listening. Ming Hu decided to kill Shanshan again. He couldn’t give up 200,000 gold.
“They’ll come back to life anyway.
I felt a little bad about it, but it was the user who did the killing. Even if he was killed, he would come back to life in a few hours to play again. Ming Hu looked at Shi Yan with a pitying expression.
“…?”
Chansal, who had been smiling at Minghu’s words, could not help but be puzzled by Minghu’s suddenly apologetic expression. Seeing Chansal’s expression, Minghu opened his mouth to speak.
“Sorry.”
“…No way.
Sansal frowned. I didn’t think so, but it was me. Apparently, he had changed his mind again. He quickly opened his mouth to speak.
“Wait a minute! Give me a reason why you’re trying to kill me.”
Of course, he had a pretty good idea why, but asking for the reason was just to buy time. Shi Yan cautiously opened his inventory.
“Well, there’s a bounty on his head.”
“,…”
Opening his inventory to check the location of the Demon Star Warp Scroll, Shi Yan couldn’t help but pause for a moment at Ming Hu’s words.
“Bounty?
A bounty, huh?” Sansal said, turning away from his inventory to look at Ming Hu.
“Bounty?”
“Yeah, there’s a bounty on your head right now from a bunch of different people in a bunch of different countries. You’re coming back to life anyway. I’d appreciate it if you died once.”
“…”
To Ming’s words, Shanshan could say nothing. It wasn’t because Ming Hu asked him to die.
“Multiple countries? Multiple people? Not just one person, but multiple people in multiple countries with a bounty on my head?
It seemed that the situation he was in was worse than he had realized. Of course, that didn’t matter, since he had no intention of getting out of here. Shanshan looked at Ming Hu and said.
“I was wondering if… Can you tell me what image I have out there, or what situation I’m in?”
When he finished, he began to look at Myung-hoo’s group to see how they were reacting so he could use the scroll at any time. Myung-hoo, Ji-yeon, and Min-hyung looked at each other with puzzled expressions and began to talk quietly.
“What, don’t you realize what you’re getting yourself into?”
“I guess so?”
“It showed up in a message, didn’t it?”
“Maybe it was for us, maybe it wasn’t for you, but you know best, Minhyung.”
“Uh, but wait.”
In response to Myung-hoo’s words, Min-hyung told him to wait a moment, then opened his inventory and pulled out a scroll. He immediately unfolded the scroll.
Siaak
Then green wings sprouted from the scroll and took to the sky. Ming Hu, Jie Li, and even Shanshan, who had been watching their reactions from afar, stared at the green wings with puzzled expressions. At the same time, a message began to appear.
[You have entered the Broken Wing Zone].
[Cannot use various movement skills, items, such as warp, blink, etc.].
“…?”
“…!”
Myung-hoo, Ji-yeon, and Chansal had different expressions when they saw the message. Minhyung saw the look on Chansal’s face and made the same expression, then looked at Myunghu and Ji-yeon.
“Just in case you jump out while we’re talking. And do I need to explain, I’m going to kill you anyway.”
“I see.”
At Minhyung’s words, Ming Hu could only nod. Ming Hu looked at Shan Shan. He had a very puzzled expression on his face. Just then, Karot, who had been silent, spoke up.
-Master, may I absorb him?
“…What?”
Upon hearing Karot’s words, Ming Hu couldn’t help but panic. He was a user, not an NPC, not a monster. To absorb a user?
“Can you absorb it?”
-Yes, I think I can absorb some of it, is it okay if I do?
“Uh, uh!”
Ming Hu nodded quickly at Karot’s words.
-Thank you.
Karot replied, raising his staff.
“Profit!”
He frowned as Karot raised his staff. He turned and broke into a run to get out of the Broken Wing Zone. As he ran, he opened his inventory and pulled out the Demon Star Warp Scroll. He intended to tear the scroll open and warp the moment he exited the Broken Wing Zone.
Suk
“Shit.
But Karot’s attack was a step faster than Ssangsal could get out of the broken wing zone. Ssangsal frowned at the black orb that appeared before him.
“I shouldn’t be dead.
He couldn’t die here. No, it didn’t matter where; now was not the time to die.
tweet
But the black orb, unbeknownst to him, began to crack, and his face contorted grotesquely.
Poof!
As if waiting for it, the cracked black orb exploded and engulfed Sansal.
[‘Arc Lich Karot’ attacked user ‘Swoop’].
For some reason, there was no message that hostilities had begun, but that wasn’t the point. Ming Hu stared at the fallen Shanshan as the blast faded. It hadn’t moved.
Siaak
Black energy escaped from the fallen Sansal’s body and flew to Karot, who absorbed it.
[Karot absorbed energy and gained 70 hit points].
“Done!”
Myung Hu was looking at the message when he heard Min Hyung’s shout and turned to look at him. Minhyung smiled when Myunghu saw him and said, “I’m sorry.
“I’ll pay you as soon as you report the quest and get paid.”
“Okay.”
Ming Hu nodded. But Delay shook his head and said.
“I don’t need to give it to you.”
“Huh? Are you okay?”
“Yeah, I didn’t do anything, but I’m not ungrateful enough to get it, hehe.”
Delay laughed. Then he looked at Shanshan’s corpse lying in the distance, and said to Ming Hu, “I’m sorry.
“But there’s something shiny over there, is that an item drop?”
“…?”
Ming Hu quickly turned to look at the corpse of Shanshan at Jiayi’s words. Something was shimmering near its head. Ming Hu quickly approached the corpse. When Ming Hu arrived in front of the corpse, he looked at the shiny object and muttered to himself.
“…looks like a sign?”
A mark, something shiny, I wasn’t sure, but it felt like someone’s mark, like the emperor’s mark or the black claw’s mark.
Sigh
-You have acquired the Mark of Agranecto, Demon of Death.
As expected, the shiny object was a signet ring, but not just any ring, but the signet ring of the Demon King Agranecto. Ming Hu looked at it with a slightly surprised expression. It was then.
[You possess the mark of Agranecto, the Death Demon].
[Enter hostile state with all users].
“…?”
Ming Hu stared at the message that followed the acquisition of the mark with a puzzled expression.
“Enemies with all users?
Ming Hu frowned and quickly checked the information on the mark.

Mark of Agranecto, Demon of Death, when you have the Mark, you gain the following effects
1. cannot be attacked by undead monsters lower in rank than Agranecto.
2. You will become enemies with all users. However, the hostile status will not be displayed.
3. tokens cannot be discarded and are dropped to the user on death.
“…Hmmm.”
After checking the information on the certificate, Ming Hu was surprised.
“Why?”
“What is it?”
Ji-yeon and Min-hyung looked at Myeong-hoo and Seung-pyo alternately, asking what was wrong. At their question, Myeong-hoo slowly turned his head and looked at Ji-yeon and Min-hyung in disbelief.
“This… Demigod-grade item?”
“What? Demigod?”
“Hul? Demigod?”
“Uhh. But that’s a weird option.”
Myung-hoo explains the options for the proof to Ji-yeon and Min-hyung.
“So it’s not exchangeable?”
“I thought the demigod rating was going to be awesome, but it’s not so great… Enmity with all users? That’s a really overwhelming option.”
“You think so…”
Ming Hu trailed off. Minhyung called it an unsettling option, but in Myung-hoo’s eyes, it was the most deceptive. Seeing the option for the token, Myung-hoo immediately opened his inventory and put the token in. He checked around, wondering if there would be another drop item like the one that dropped the token. He looked around, wondering if there was another drop item like the one that dropped. Sure enough, there was something sticking out from under his arm.
“…Scroll?”
It looked like a scroll, from the way it stuck out. Ming Hu quickly raised Shanshan’s arm to see what was sticking out.
“It’s scrolling?”
“What scroll?”
“Is it warp scrolling?”
Ming Hu reached out and picked up the scroll.
-You have mastered the Agranecto Demonic Warp Scroll.
“…Hmmm.”
