Chapter 194

“You mean there was a Kraken?”
“Yes.”
“Then all the missing people are…”
Viscount Samon interrupted.
“…”
Ming Hu couldn’t say anything. Silence settled over the room.
“Thank you so much. At least the Kraken has been dealt with… I can rest easy now.”
It was Viscount Samon who broke the silence.
[You have completed the quest].
[Helioca’s merit also rose by 20 million].
When Viscount Samon finished speaking, a quest completion message appeared.
“Bye then…”
Ming Hu smiled slightly and turned around to see the message about his rewarded merit points.
“Ah, my lord!”
But as soon as he turned back, he heard Viscount Samon’s cry, and he turned back again to look at him; and Viscount Samon opened his mouth and said, “I am not going to let you go.
“His Majesty the Emperor has told me to stop what I’m doing and tell him to come back right now.”
“The Emperor?”
“Yes.”
“Oh. Okay, then.”
At Viscount Samon’s words, Ming Hu bowed his head once more in greeting and left the room. As he walked down the hall, he thought to himself.
“What’s going on? Is it the demons?
Why would the emperor suddenly call him? As Ming Hu pondered, he remembered the Seventh Demon Realm.
“It must be the demons, right?
We weren’t sure, but it was most likely due to the demons.
“I’ll know when I get there.
He’d find out when he got there anyway. Ming Hu dismissed the thought and opened the character window.

“That’s a big jump.”
After completing one quest and slaying one kraken, my character window was a drastic change from before. My Achievements have increased by 20 million, my reputation has increased by 1.8 million, and my level has increased by 66 levels.
“Start by investing in strength.”
Ming Hu invested all 660 bonus stats he gained from leveling up into strength.
“We’re about to hit 800,000.”
After investing all of his bonus stats, Ming Hu closed his character window and opened his inventory, where he saw the four items the Kraken had dropped: Kraken Meat, Elemental Stone, Sucker, and Essence.
“Meat.. sucker.”
The geode and essence were fine. But the meat and suckers were not. I looked at the items and my face turned bitter.
“No, you don’t know, it’s the meat of a kraken.”
But just in case, Ming Hu checked the item’s information as he walked toward the warp gate.

The meat of the legendary beast, the Kraken, is so fantastically flavored that two people could eat it and one would never know the difference.
“…”
Ming Hu, who was the first to check the information on the meat, couldn’t say anything.
‘Later. I’ll have to eat with Delay.’
Myung-hoo later decided to cook with Ji-yeon and checked the sucker’s information.

The sucker of the legendary beast Kraken, it can be used as a cooking ingredient but is usually used for armor.
“This is kind of… okay.”
Unlike meat, suckers seemed to be quite useful. Ming Hu then checked the item information for the spirit stones and essence.

The Kraken’s spirit stone from the legendary beast.

It contains the essence of the legendary beast Kraken, a powerful water element.
The item information for Spirit Stones and Essence was pretty straightforward.
“Where are you going?”
After arriving at the Warp Gate to view item information, Ming Hu closed the information window at the words of the Wizard NPC.
“Go to the capital nexus.”

Who the fuck is this asshole? Did you get anything?
I need to catch a ghoul, but I can’t because it’s a cub. Ouch. Son of a bitch!
-BoboBobo: You can catch something other than undead, dumbass.
-Priest: Damn it, it’s a quest.
-Commando: Bobobo, I told you I’d kick you out of the guild if you acted like an asshole, you asshole.

Subject : Ssangsal is the real deal.
Author: Jizon Chan Chan
How did you come up with the idea of descending a demon? It’s players anyway, it’s a quest, it’s fun, it’s good, but the NPCs reacted to it. I don’t think he’ll be able to play normally anymore, but he’s a brave man.
-Priest: It’s great for players who don’t kill undead monsters, but for people like me who have to kill undead monsters for quests… I can’t control my Chapter. What an asshole.
-Dr. Jizon-chan : Now that I think about it. People with quests involving undead monsters would be annoying.
Title: Awesome! A bounty NPC for a guy named Sansal!
By: Bounty Hunter
Count Daltan, Kingdom of Aberren, has a bounty of 2000 gold for a sword. Awesome. Hurry up and get the quest. By the way, do you have any idea where he is?
-Peace like a river: in the kingdom of Degaren, the king has a 10,000 gold sword.
-Nagabaro Healer: 100,000 gold in the Holy Empire.
-Bounty Hunter: No, not the bounty, but the location. Location.

But I’m not the asshole you think I am, motherfuckers, and you can’t PK me for having the same ID, motherfuckers.
You’re the last asshole to descend the devil, and you’re gonna get your ass handed to you. Or make a stupid username. Ouch.
-Gimtru: It’s real! It’s real!
-Bobobo: I feel a deep squeeze.
-Bounty Hunter: I feel so sorry for you, where are you? I’ve got your back.

Seventh Element.
“This is the last one.”
Agranecto’s words made Sansal smile. He opened the quest window to see the quest he had received from Agranecto.
<Agranecto's Favor
Something only you can do. Agranecto wants you to do it. Follow Agranecto and destroy the Inhibitory Orb.
Difficulty Level: B
Quest Reward: Staff of Death
Dramatically reduced affinity with Agranecto when refusing quests
"Just one more time and I'll finally get the Staff of Death!
Surely, Agranecto said, this is the last time. Sansal smiled happily at the thought of getting the staff of death.
"Here."
Just then, Agranecto stopped walking and spoke. Chansal stopped walking and turned away from the quest window to look ahead. The temple was enormous, unlike any he had ever seen before.
"It looks really big… does this one just have a deterrent ball inside?"
Shook his head and asked Agranecto, who shook his head and said, "I don't know.
"No, I don't know where the inhibitory orb is, but I'm pretty sure it's in here."
"Oh… I see."
"Okay, once we destroy the suppression orb like we've been doing… I'll come to you with the staff of death I mentioned earlier."
"Okay, see you later!"
At Agranecto's mention of the staff of death, Sansal smiled broadly and entered the temple. As expected, there were several corridors within the temple, unlike anything he had ever seen before. "This is the largest of them all," he thought as he stared down the hall.
"It's most likely in the largest hallway.
This was not going to be big. Chansal began to walk inward, down the largest hallway he could see.
"That's a weird looking door.
Soon enough, he arrived at a door with a strange symbol on it. Without hesitation, he opened the door, stepped inside, and scanned the interior.
"Nothing."
Unfortunately, I didn't see any inhibition balls.
"Hmm?"
Ruefully glancing inside once more, he spotted something in the distance, obscured by something else, and quickly walked away.
"Moon?"
What was hidden from view was the door. Chansal quickly opened the door. The door opened to reveal another hallway.
Jumbled
Chansal started walking down the hallway again. After a while, he stopped walking and smiled.
"Found it!"
At the end of the hallway, a white ball floating in the air came into view-the Suppression Ball, no doubt. Chansal quickly ran toward the suppression orb and reached out for it.
[The Fifth Suppression Orb has been tainted by Death's aura].
[The Fifth Inhibitory Orb is destroyed].
[The last inhibitory orb has been destroyed].
[10 days later, the gate to the First Continent opens].
"…?"
After checking the message, Sansal couldn't help but wonder.
"What do you mean, a gate?"
It was a message that hadn't appeared when he'd destroyed the suppression orb earlier. Sansal stared at the blackening suppression orb with a puzzled expression.
