Chapter 119
National Treasure of the Aranbalon Kingdom (4)
Wheeeeeik! Pow-pow-pow!
The moment I came to my senses, a volley of bolts was already pouring down.
A sound that seemed to tear the air.
And the sound of them hitting hard against the shield legion led by Bone Four.
Their eyes glowed red, and they began to approach one by one, starting to fire with precision.
The situation had already unfolded.
All that was left was to respond.
“Everyone, get behind me for now!”
Swish!
I, too, transformed my weapon into a shield, joining Bone Four’s legion.
“Bone Four’s legion, in a single horizontal line! Position yourselves on either side of me!”
Squeak!
Kugugugung!
As if understanding, the guys slammed their shields hard into the ground.
“And!”
I shouted towards the back.
“Even now, anyone who wants to run, run!”
“Huh? What did you say?”
“We can run away?”
“Hun?”
“What are you talking about?”
My teammates tilted their heads.
But my expression remained unchanged.
“Yes, I’m fine! Anyone who wants to go, go!”
To live as a Hunter in this world.
It’s better to be prepared to be backstabbed at any time.
If you think that way from the start, there’s no need to feel wronged.
‘Besides.’
I had never solved dungeons that were said to be difficult ‘together’ with anyone in the first place.
When passing the Old Man’s test, when clearing the Medium Dungeon, when solving Theme 1.
It was always alone.
So, honestly.
There was a part of me that was more comfortable alone.
These dangers now feel somewhat familiar.
“Hmm, so you’re saying it’s better to betray now than to cause chaos by dropping out later? Truly befitting of a team leader?”
