Chapter 150
Episode 150:
Kurula’s Snowy Mountain.
X, who entered the coniferous forest, could not help but be shocked.
Countless eyes shining in the dark! Because it was clear that wild animals were capable of living together.
“It’s a land of warriors, so even the mobs are brave.”
Radiating spirit.
X’s current spirit was enough to intimidate high-level monsters.
However, the beasts of Kurula were not intimidated by their threatening spirit.
fillet. X clenched his fist.
‘Does this sound like a good fight?’
Although X had already been repeatedly hunting from the sea, it was actually closer to a one-sided massacre than a hunt.
Because the strongest one wasn’t even level 400.
“Then let’s get started!”
At least one more until morning!
Parbat! X ran towards the beasts.
Kurula’s beasts were basically more ferocious than their level. Not only does it possess cold resistance characteristics, but it also has high resistance to various abnormalities thanks to its strong mental power.
Tiroling!
[Fatal blow!]
[A fear effect occurs on Kurula Asiatic Bear!]
But that’s only when the level is right.
‘The feeling of it sticking to your hand is different from the fist method.’
Swish!
X was dodging the concerted attacks of dozens of wild beasts and trampling on the Kurula black bear, which was close to level 700.
And that too with bare-handed fighting without the use of fist fighting techniques.
Puk puk!
Because X did not possess basic fighting skills, Asiatic Bear did not fall down right away. However, it did not last long.
thud!
Kurula Asiatic Black Bear, who had been punched five or six times, fell to the floor.
Even the tough beasts of Kurula were helpless in the face of overwhelming stats.
“Whoa, just one.”
X had grown to the point where he could kill monsters that were well over 100 levels higher than him with his bare hands.
Perhaps the system recognized that shocking ability? A notification rang.
Tiroling!
[You have acquired the passive skill ‘Fight of the Strong’!]
“Oh!”
X’s eyes widened.
The achievement of hitting a bear with bare hands was recognized, and a passive skill was created for the first time in a while.
I checked the information right away.
Fight of the strong (1%): Attacks the opponent with a merciless body. Power increases in proportion to strength and agility.
Additionally, it deals additional damage when your stats are higher than your opponent’s. Additional damage increases as skill level increases.
“…is this a reminder to keep using your fists?”
In one word, contempt for the weak!
Since it was not a fighting skill acquired in a normal way, the effect was also unusual.
However, it was difficult to find a more suitable effect for X.
Overwhelming stats that total well over 20,000!
Because it was difficult to find players or monsters with stats higher than X.
The additional damage was minimal due to low proficiency, but the story will be different once you become a master.
In reality, X burst out laughing.
“I guess I’ll have to be a little more diligent from now on.”
Master the basics as well as fight like a strongman!
Puk puk!
X, whose will was filled, continued to beat Kurula’s beasts like a punching bag without stopping.
Level 650 Kurula Snow Mountain Wolf, level 700 Kurula Anaconda, and level 630 Kurula Primitive Lizard were no exception.
Tiroling!
Rising levels are basic.
Even the inventory was filled with loot pouring in.
Nevertheless, X was never satisfied!
“In the end, I had no choice but to put it together like this.”
Quality.
Kurula’s wild beasts are tied up and dragged down by X’s hand.
The shocking sight was enough to focus the audience’s attention.
Among those who could not easily open their mouths, Hunriquel spoke to Ilex.
“Look, I’m right, right?”
I never thought I would say something like this in my life.
Ilex stuttered.
“…Yeah, Hunriquel. “You were right this time.”
*
Grumble! A wildly burning wood fire.
The drinking scene started in broad daylight.
“I’m saying this now, but I knew it the moment I saw it. X That you are a true warrior! Of course, I misunderstood because of that strange outfit, but…”
Is this reconciliation between real men?
Ilex and Gunsmer clearly acknowledged X.
X didn’t use magic or trickery, he was just a greater warrior than they were.
The women burst into laughter.
“Kurula men must give up their prejudices.”
“From now on, stop being stubborn and listen to what others have to say.”
“Oh, I understand.”
Gunsmer kept stroking his beard as if he was embarrassed.
X drank Kurula’s special drink between the two big guys.
Tiroling! Not only the refreshing taste of pine needles, but also the stats.
X cleared his throat and looked around.
‘Just by looking at this, you can get a rough idea of his personality.’
Warriors of Kurula!
First of all, he was basically brave and had strong pride.
In particular, he seemed to have a strong will to win, to the point where he resorted to force without even realizing it when he was completely defeated in battle. Still, I couldn’t call it petty.
‘Because they just want to fight without caring about their lives.’
Let’s just say it’s a side effect of having a strong competitive spirit.
X, who had sorted things out, suddenly swallowed a sigh.
‘The problem is how to appease these warriors.’
The gourmet king who broke his promise!
As a descendant of an irresponsible gourmet king,
But the more I learned, the more I couldn’t bring myself to persuade Kurula’s warriors.
X swallowed a sigh.
‘Like Master said, I’m really tired.’
Anyway, I had to meet Vjolaf. Since he was the oldest person in the village, it was surprising that he could communicate well. X asked Elex.
“Now are you telling me Vjolaf’s location?”
“of course! “You have the right to meet the elders.”
“How about we go right now? If so, I’ll take you there. “I’m sure the old man will be very pleased if he hears your heroic story.”
Wagu wagu. At those words, X hurriedly stuffed the food in front of him into his mouth.
No matter how urgent you are, the thing you can’t miss is new foods.
Tiroling! X responded after checking the rising stats.
“Tsk tsk tsk let’s go right away!”
*
The village beyond the ridge seemed to be the most developed of Kurula’s three villages.
In the center of the village, there was a statue of magnificent size, although not of outstanding quality.
Gunsmer explained, proudly pointing to the statue.
“It’s a statue of our hero Lolaf!”
Lolaf, a hero from the past.
It was an impressive statue with dual axes in both hands. It is said that the number of lives taken with that ax exceeded tens of thousands, so there was definitely a reason why he was praised as a hero in Kurula.
‘I feel sorry for myself for no reason.’
Lolaf said that he never forgot his promise to the Gourmet King until his death. It was understandable that the Kurula warriors had deep feelings for the people of the continent.
Gunsmer, who was guiding X to Vjolaf, asked quietly.
“More than that, what business does Elder Vjolaf have to do? A great warrior like you would definitely have made a name for himself on the continent…”
Tak! Gunsmer snapped his fingers.
“Ah, so you came to challenge Elder Vjolaf to a duel! It’s a duel between the old man and you. “Wow, this is making me drunk already?”
Indeed, speculations and reactions worthy of a fighting nation. X shook his head.
“No, it’s not a duel.”
“Huh? “My excitement suddenly waned.”
Gunsmer’s face quickly became glum.
For a moment, I burst out laughing at the unexpected sight. X paused.
“We have arrived. “This is the old man’s office.”
“…Something is very big.”
A huge hide came into view.
Unlike other buildings made of multiple layers of leather, the leather of Vjolaf’s office was uniform.
‘Is it snake skin? Is it crocodile skin?’
It looked like a very tough reptile skin, not fur.
Gunsmer seemed to have noticed this and opened his mouth proudly.
“Hehe. “You wouldn’t even dare to guess.”
“Do you know anything?”
“Do you just know? But it’s a little too much to tell you. “I really want to tell you, but I don’t know what I’ll hear later.”
Gunsmer, who was pondering, nodded.
“Well, if you get recognition from the elders, you will find out automatically. “Because he’s a person who really enjoys talking to people.”
There is some secret!
I was curious about what it was, but I wasn’t in the mood to inquire.
Sigh. Soon Gunsmer pulled back his skin and entered.
X followed behind, gasping without realizing it.
‘What’s so big?’
He is so big that Gunsmer, who is called a huge man, looks small! Because in front of me was a giant who seemed to be three or four times the size of an average person.
There were traces of age on his face, but the intimidation emanating from his body was no different from that of Sioras or Liglian.
Gurgling X swallowed dry saliva.
‘It’s huge.’
The first impression is that he is truly a descendant of the great warrior Rolaf.
Gunsmer introduced X.
“My name is X. It is said that people came from all over the continent to meet their elders. “He is an outstanding warrior who is not inferior to Kurula’s warriors in terms of courage or skill!”
“A guest from the continent?”
“nice to see you. “It’s called X!”
Vjolaf quietly stared at X, who bowed his head politely. Then he gestured to Gunsmer.
“Gunsmer, you should go out for a while.”
“I understand, old man. “Then let’s talk comfortably.”
“Thank you for the guidance.”
As Gunsmer left, there was silence inside.
Bjolaf is still just watching himself.
As expected, X felt something unusual.
‘I guess I’m just vaguely aware of it?’
Well, what would be the chance of finding Vjolaf on the continent? The only person who can find him is himself, the successor to the Gourmet King.
X, having made up his mind, opened his mouth.
“I would like to formally greet you once again. I came to see you through the introduction of Master Sioras. “I am X, the successor to the Gourmet King!”
Bjolaf raises the corner of his mouth as if he knew that would happen.
Slam! He raised his heavy body.
“The fact that you came to see me means that you have made up your mind.”
“yes? Are you determined? “What are you saying…?!”
I tried my specialty, slyness, but it didn’t work.
Sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!
Instead of answering, a two-handed ax flew out.
It was a surprise attack, but X had been prepared for it from the beginning.
Swish! X easily rolled back and avoided the attack.
Cuguaguaguagang!
However, the moment the two-handed ax hit the ground, a huge shock wave occurred.
‘What kind of strength does this old man have?!’
The shock wave created strong winds. Because of this, X was thrown out of the office as if he had been sucked in.
Green onions! Vjolaf did not give himself a chance. I nimbly chased after X.
Sighing, X raised the corner of his mouth.
‘It’s all a valuable experience.’
Battle against the truly powerful!
Before meeting Sioras, X had many shortcomings.
Because my level was low and I didn’t know how to properly use my overflowing stats. Because of this, Ligrien and Sioras were left helpless.
But things have changed. Constant binge eating and hunting! Although NPCs were famous in the past, X has now grown enough to compete with them.
X took out the traveler’s sword and dark iron shield.
bang! I took the oncoming Vjolaf’s ax head-on.
Tingling! My hands were numb, but I was able to hold on.
A battle of power in which no one can outstrip the other even an inch. In that split-second moment, X expressed his opinion to Vjolaf.
“Even if Vjolaf still has bad feelings between you and the Gourmet King, I have no intention of just being beaten quietly. Because I have as much to say to the Gourmet King as you do!”
I will not live with being treated unfairly.
I’ll do my best to fight back!
Boom!X gritted his teeth and threw away Bjolaf’s axe.
“this…?!”
Vjolaf’s pupils shook.
Munchkin that I eat all by myself
