Chapter 134: As you sow (1)
There were two, but one of them got ahead of the other by a hair’s breadth and sat in front of the altar. She was Bora Yon, the next successor of the Mirae Group.
And the other one who was right behind her was my sister, Suyoung.
Unfortunately, both of them were won, and they were the imdiate daughters of the chairn of Myongjin and Mirae.
Honestly, if they had stayed in their places, they would never have been chosen as an offering. In other words, there was a zero chance of them being chosen.
Besides, even if their team failed later, they would not have to fight with each other over who was to bla because not only the imdiate family mbers of Myongjin and Mirae, but also those of Daesung, Kusan and Daeyu were also included in the 60 person squad. As a result, they knew well that it would bring about more losses if they picked a fight over the imdiate family mbers of those other groups.
Anyway, the people who would be the potential sacrifice appeared, and everyone paid attention because they were the imdiate family mbers of the two groups’ chairn.
Bora Yon said, “Suyoung, I was a little faster than you. So, please concede this ti.”
“Are you serious?”
“Of course, I am! Besides, Myongjin didn’t even include Juyoung because he was not competent enough, throwing away your benefits for our overall victory.. I would be very ashad of myself if even you from Myongjin would be offered up as well in this situation.”
“Okay, then I won’t decline your request. Honestly I don’t want to be a sacrifice, but I thought we have to avoid the worst scenario.”
“Oh, don’t say you won’t decline my request. I’m grateful to you for conceding, sis Suyoung.”
They had a brief chat like that, but the 58 n, including , couldn’t get involved in their conversation because their conversation was so unusual.
After she finished talking with my sister, Bora glanced at us once and opened her mouth in a loud voice.
“This is Mirae’s sacrifice. So, if Korea is ranked higher than you think because of my sacrifice, you must never forget the part Miraw has played. Oh, you might think I’m trying hard to get credit, but if I don’t say it out loud, there are so people who would not get it. And don’t you think I can claim the credit for my sacrifice like this?”
“…”
“…”
“…”
No one dared to refute Bora’s argunt. Then she stepped straight onto the altar as if she wasn’t expecting any response because there was only 2 seconds left.
So I said to her behind her back, “I will rember you.”
As soon as I said that, she turned and made eye contact with .
But she would not know my real identity because I wore a heavy robe and a mask as always. And with that brief encounter, she disappeared from my sight.
A ssage rang as she disappeared.
[You have made the offering.
-The 4th anniversary event in Region 53 (Korea) continues.]
Round 32, in which showed up in an unexpected situation with trendous difficulty.
Though we made it through Round 32, the atmosphere was gloomy.
And at that mont, a Korean adage ca to my mind – ‘the person who beat another man sleeps with his legs crouched, while the beaten man sleeps comfortably with both legs stretched out’. Of course, I know that this adage is almost wrong all the ti these days.
However, what was certain is that although she might have felt satisfied by giving herself up as a sacrifice, those who were left behind here felt a heavy load in their hearts.
Anyway, Round 32, which stopped because of the offering issue, resud when Bora volunteered to be the offering, but the Myongjin & Mirae Alliance whose mbers were reduced from 30 to 29 completely blocked the monsters as before.
Soon, they moved back to change positions with Team No. 2, the Daesung & Kusan Alliance.
This was the sa situation as before.
But I could clearly feel the difference because Myongjin and Mirae were working as one team.
Of course, it was absolutely impossible for them to completely move in unison even if they were one team.
Obviously, when viewed from the outside, they looked rather awkward toward each other.
And that was the sa with the Daesung & Kusan Alliance, and Daeyu that had four other veteran users.
However, it seed that the mbers of the Myongjin & Mirae Alliance felt sothing like kinship to each other because both their imdiate family mbers of their chairn stepped forward to be the offering out of noblesse oblige.
Moreover, by ntioning my na, Juyoung Hong, Bora even said it was now Mirae’s turn to make the sacrifice because Myongjin already made concessions by excluding from their team.
Anyway, Round 32 finished leaving a strong impression on the team mbers of the Myongjin & Mirae Alliance.
One hour later Team No. 3, Daeyu, completely blocked the monsters in Round 39.
Honestly, all the rounds after Round 32 were not that difficult because not only Team No, 3 where I belonged to, but also Team No. 1 and Team No. 2 perfectly blocked the monsters without any difficulty in their assigned rounds.
In the anti, when Daeyu let Myongjin & Mirae Alliance take over Round 50, a ssage rang.
[Starting from Round 50, more powerful monsters will attack.]
‘At last!’
Only after hearing this ssage did I feel energized with the urge to fight harder.
And it was also about ti that the three teams talked about the possibility of breaking the current rotation system and uniting as one team to deal with the powerful monsters. But none of the 59 mbers ntioned it.
Anyway, since nobody suggested ending the current rotation system, the Myongjin & Mirae Alliance started Round 50 naturally.
“Soar, Pillar of Fire!”
“Let the ignorant enemies enjoy the fear of death. Death Field!”
“Rocking Earth!”
“Engrave on my body, Indomitable Will!”
“Destruction!”
The erging monsters in Round 50 were definitely far stronger than before.
Unlike the previous monsters that were swept away even before approaching us, these monsters got close to Team No. 1 and attacked them.
But the mbers of the Myongjin & Mirae Alliance Alliance, or Team No. 1, were much more organized and united than other teams as if they had been practicing jointly for this event.
So, with the tanks, damage dealers, healers and enchanters playing their roles perfectly, they got rid of the monsters one by one finishing round 50 perfectly although it took them a bit longer than before.
Then, Team No. 2, naly the Daesung and Kusan Alliance took over and started Round 51.
Compared with Myongjin & Mirae Alliance who had 29 mbers, they had only 20. But they were strong enough to block the monsters, although it took them much longer than Team No. 1.
Anyway, they successfully defended the tower with only 20 mbers.
It was now Daeyu’s turn, which seed the weakest among the three teams.
But I didn’t feel any burden, nor did I worry at all.
Even other mbers of Daeyu, Team No.3, seed to feel the sa way.
And soon afterwards, they replaced Team No.23 of the Dasung & Kusan alliance.
“Ice Field! Multiple Thin Ice! Ice Storm! Ice Rain! Pouring Hailstone!”
Pasasasak!
Puck! Puck! Puck! Puck!
Pitter-patter! Pitter-patter! Pitter-patter!
I mobilized all my skills to attack the monsters charging at .
Obviously, my attack was enough to block them in the previous rounds because the nine n behind were able to render any additional support.
But the monsters survived this ti. Of course, they suffered injuries all over their bodies from my attack.
So, this ti I used the skills that I had refrained from using until now.
In other words, I used Ice Blast with level 5 Ice Field as its sacrifice.
“Ice Blast!”
Bang! Bang!
This was a skill that I enjoyed a lot when I used it with level 2 Ice Field, but at so point I didn’t feel like using Ice Field, which gave buffs, as a sacrifice to Ice Blast.
Honestly, since the monsters were covered with heavy wounds, I didn’t need to use Ice Blast.
But I used Ice Blast for level 5 Ice Field for the first ti, and its effect was clear.
The monsters who barely survived my attack were killed en masse.
Even though Daeyu had only 10 mbers, they cleared the round faster than the other two teams.
Now, since Daeyu was done, Myongjin & Mirae, Team No. 1, took over.
This kind of rotation system continued for a while.
