ReLife Player Novel Chapter 128

Chapter 128

Flowering Night (8)]

The majority of the monsters that attacked the Dawn Hotel were of the Eighth Rank.

Monsters that cause physical damage to everyday life.

These monsters looked like little monkeys, throwing things as they could get their hands on them and clawing at people with their claws.

Monsters in the eighth rank were easily defeated by even E-ranked players.

Unless the Juggling Monkey was aligned with a seventh-rank monster, the Goblin.

The goblins, who were one rank higher than the little monkeys, played tricks and confronted the players.

Go away.

Before they knew it, the monsters had reached the fourth floor.

Eunha stabbed his rapier into the forehead of a juggling monkey that had climbed the staircase railing like a jungle.

The monkey didnt even get a chance to scream before it disappeared.

Then he leapt downstairs.

Landing directly in front of the goblin, he energized his rapier and quickly scanned the area.

A goblin in front of him.

And three juggling monkeys clustered around it.

Swiftly, he severed their throats.

With zigzag movents, he darted out and swung his rapier. The blade pierced the Goblins heart, and he adjusted its length to withdraw the sword, cutting down the three monkeys on either side of it.

This is ridiculous.

Barefoot from running down the stairs from the top floor, Oh Yeon-jung stood dumbfounded, her hair untidy.

It was inevitable.

The skills he had displayed belonged to a veteran player.

She thought she must have lost her head when she jumped from upstairs to downstairs, but the swordsmanship displayed by a child who was only an elentary school student was enough to make her jaw drop.

Why arent you coming down? What, are you going to run away?

No.

Oh Yeon-jung felt ashad inwardly.

With a bullet wound in her shoulder, she was going to take the opportunity to run away from him.

As a supporter, she couldnt fight him alone.She planned to engage him after forming a formation.

But she couldnt run away from him.

Aside from keeping an eye on her back, monsters had been coming up from downstairs for so ti.

Sothings wrong, there are more monsters than I expected.

It wouldnt be strange if the monster drive was over, but theyre still coming.

Oh Yeon-jung looked anxiously at the monsters swarming toward the hotel.

She broke out in a cold sweat.

She couldnt shake the uneasy feeling that things were going in the wrong direction.

Sothings wrong. Did you guys think that the players in the hotel alone could stop sothing of this magnitude?

Not to this extent, no.

Eunha clicked his tongue as she muttered in a small voice.

Apparently, things had taken an unexpected turn, and a serious one at that.

They must have evacuated safely.

I looked around the hallway. The bodies of people who had been mauled by monkeys were strewn about.

Among them were the bodies of children.

So were dead in their blood-soaked gowns, while others had been ripped from their bodies by the monkeys, leaving them unclothed.

So faces I recognized, so I didnt.

This sucks.

The sight of the faces I knew dead, unable to close their eyes, was enough to make

angry.

I shed mana on purpose.

The eighth-ranked Monster Juggling Monkey, who had been rummaging through so corpse in the hallway, and the ninth-ranked Monster Maggot, who had been eating the corpse, looked up.

The Juggling Monkey raised its butt nacingly and let out a murderous and nacing sound.

Revolver Thorn.

Eunha aid his rapier at the monsters.

Mana flowed out of his body and turned into thorns that circled clockwise around the rapier, resembling arrowheads.

There were a total of seven manifested thorns.

His target was also seven.

Kie-Eek.

The closest Juggling Monkey lunged.

Eunha didnt move. When he aid the rapier at the charging monster, one of the thorns circulating clockwise shattered its head.

A spell that enhanced Madness, a technique for keeping monsters at bay.

Monster Aversion.

It was a spell he had only been able to use after defeating one of the Tredeci, due to the rapid increase in mana in his body.

Why are these things acting up in front of

now?

Eunha raised his rapier above his head.

The thorns that had been revolving around the rapier remained still in place.

As the rapier was lowered, as if it were the signal to fire, the thorns that had remained in place suddenly flew towards their targets.

The monsters pierced by the thorns turned into mana and disappeared.

Ignoring the mana stones scattered on the ground, Eunha descended to the second floor.

As soon as he descended, he furrowed his brows in surprise.

He had expected it, but the situation was more serious than he had thought.

The monsters that had co up from the first floor were running around the corridors, fighting among themselves for prey.

The players arent coming, what are they doing?

Even as people were dying, there were no players taking on the monsters.

The few players that were there were disfigured and unable to fight the monsters.

That wasnt the problem.

The monsters that occupied the second floor had their eyes on him, their mouths agape at the sight of their newest prey.

It wasnt going to be an easy descent.

And the prey was not him but the others.

Hey.

Yes!

Dont think foolishly. Just follow

closely.

The stairs were still stairs. In the midst of the monsters coming up from the first floor blocking the way, they had to deal with the monsters chasing them from behind.

His senses were on edge.

He took a deep breath and leaped into the crowd.

He stabbed the nearest monster with his rapier, then adjusted the blade to pull it out of the monsters body.

He spun his body to cover the one who had tried to attack from behind and kicked aside the one rushing from the side.

His hands and feet moved nimbly. With no ti to catch his breath, he cleared a path by wielding his sword.

One-point breakthrough.

Madness.

There was no space to swing the sword.

I stabbed the monsters in a straight line with my rapier and charged at the sa ti. With the added montum and damage, the stabbed monsters beca mana and scattered.

That gave

room to swing my sword, and as soon as my back was against the wall, I scattered the mana on my rapier.

Mana shattered into needle-like rain and held the monsters in check.

Incredible

Oh Yeon-jung followed the path he made, deploying a barrier around herself.

The occasional blade he swung, with a flying spell, shattered the barrier but did no damage to her.

The battle was unbelievable for a child.

Even among the A-ranked players, he had never seen a player swing his sword so nonstop.

What is it?

It was when they were halfway down the stairs.

Eunha stepped back as he saw the monsters waves becoming chaotic.

There was a flash of light where he was, and the remains of the creatures rained down.

From the fading flashes, a figure erged,

No Eunha?

Teacher?

Im Do-hon and No Eunha.

For a mont, the two of them paused, then swung their swords at the monster that had appeared behind them.

As if in rhythm, two monsters were obliterated.

Before they knew it, their positions had changed.

Eunha, who had been looking down at Im Do-hon, was now looking up at him.

The two of them, mouths shut, stared at each other.

There was no need to explain what was happening

The monsters had attacked the Dawn Hotel, and Im Do-hon, as a forr player, was searching the hotel for children who hadnt been evacuated.

Eunha was also wielding a sword to survive.

Thats all they needed to know about each other.

Where did you co from?

From the top floor.

And the children?

Im not sure.

Eunha shook his head.

He rembered the children who had died in the monster attack upstairs.

They couldnt be the only ones.

There were children from Doan Elentary School as well as children from other elentary schools in the Dawn Hotel.

It was hard to think that so many children had been wiped out.

There may have been others hiding sowhere in the hotel.

Thats none of my business.

Whether they were alive or dead was none of my business.

Friends were the exception.

Where are Eunhyeok, Min-ji, Hayang, and Seo-na?

Theyve all been evacuated to the main hall.

What about the

[Were moving to the underground auditorium.

So well wait for you in the underground auditorium. Dont get hurt].

The corners of Eunhas mouth twitched as he received the telepathic ssage from Seo-na.

Judging by her voice, everyone seed to be safe.

Besides, if they took refuge in the auditorium, there was no need to worry too much.

As long as the protective magic was activated, they wouldnt have to fear monster attacks.

The problem was the endless stream of monsters.

Teacher. Leave the search for the children to the other players, and find one of the Dawn Groups heirs, Byung-in.

Byung-in?

Im Do-hon repeated, frowning.

Wiping the blood from his face, he couldnt understand why the na of the heir to the Dawn Group would co up in this situation.

However, when he heard the cause of this situation, his face hardened.

You an that bastard is holding the remote control.

Yes. Its probably in the auditorium, and we need to find it and stop the monster drive.

But what about the kids upstairs.

I know youre worried, but thats not your job, is it?

Eunha shrugged, and Im Do-hon, his true self ca to life.

He was a forr player.

Now, hes a full-ti player for Alice Group, tasked with protecting Jung Hayang and the children around her.

His role as an elentary school teacher was just a an to carry out his mission.

Nevertheless, the fact that he has chosen to live this way ans that he has beco attached to the children.

Even so, one shouldnt confuse the ans with the goal.

The situation right now isnt looking good. The monsters invading the Grand Hall could happen at any mont.

Are you going to lose them all?

There were many children in the great hall.

Eunhas question provoked the possibility of losing all the children who hadnt evacuated yet.

Are you?

Could you easily give up on that?

How can you throw that out so easily.

In the end, Dohoon didnt ask him.

The ground between the two of them suddenly collapsed, and a Giant Worm-type monster burst out.

The staircase collapsed.

The monster went straight up, breaking the ceiling, and debris fell down.

The dust was so thick that it obscured their vision.

Teacher!

Even as Eunha fell to the lower floor, he shouted towards the silhouette visible through the dust.

Please take care of my friends.

Before Dohon could say anything, he used his mana to sharpen his focus and strangled the disoriented Oh Yeon-jung.

Celestial Step Technique

Even if we stopped the monster drive, the horde heading for the Dawn Hotel wouldnt stop moving.

I had to break their flow.

No Eunha!

After deploying the shock-absorbing barrier, Im Do-hon looked for Eun-ha as soon as he landed on the floor where the great hall was located.

There was no sign of him in the dust.

Instead, he gulped at the sight before him.

It was a massacre.

He had only seen sothing as horrifying during his ti as an active player.

Maybe even worse.

He had seen people killed by monsters, but he had never seen people crushed to death by people.

There were children among them.

As mangled as they were, it was hard to tell whose bodies were pressed to the ground.

That fact pissed

off even more.

Most of all, the reason for the uncontrollable release of mana in his body was the evidence of what must have happened just monts before.

The door to the great hall was shattered.

The wooden doors were barely able to hold their shape, with bloody handprints sared all the way down.

And near the door, everyone was lying on the floor with their backs turned.

The traces of soone pounding on the door to open it, even while being attacked by monsters from behind, were evident.

What thewhat in the world.

Who had opened the door after all?

Was it the people?

Or was it the monsters that rushed in to break the barrier?

It couldnt be known.

In a situation where nothing could be known, there was only one thing that could be certain.

All of this was because of a person nad Lee Byungin, who was anxious to protect himself from behind the barrier.

.

The monsters didnt care about Im Do-hoon.

The mana of the people inside the protective spell was more stimulating.

The situation was shifting in their favor.

Lee Byungin.

Im Dohons glasses clinked.

Throwing them away, he activated a vision-enhancing spell.

The spell illuminated the scene beyond as if it were right up close.

It was a favorite spell of the forr player.

He stepped forward with his right leg, crossed his blades, and ducked his upper body.

Accelerate.

With a quick burst of speed, he flew toward the monster that had just broken the barrier.

Even if his body lost balance and spun in the air several tis, he descended and struck down with the blade he held in his right hand.

The monster made a shattering sound as it disintegrated.

As soon as he landed on the ground, he held two knives and moved like a whirlwind.

Windblade

He blew away all the monsters nearby.

He threw himself into the monsters that were chasing him as he entered the protective barrier, raising his hand towards them.

Finger play

Each of the ten mana threads, split into five each, turned into countless bullets and rushed towards the monsters.

Not a single monster survived the rain of bullets that rained down in a V shape.

Teacher!

Minji shouted from the other side.

Among the children was Lee Byungin.

Like a gust of wind.

Chanting a single spell, he covered the remaining distance in one breath.

Huh?

He slamd on the brakes with all his might in the middle and punched Lee Byungin with all his strength.

What a-are you doing?!

Lee Byung-in scread as he hit the ground.

Im Dohon pressed on his abdon with his foot and glared at the players who showed hostility towards him.

The remote control?

He released his mana, showing them that he could kill Lee Byungin at any ti.

Re-remote control?

A bewildered Lee Byungin stamred.

Im Dohon kicked him in the abdon.

The players employed by Lee Byungin remained silent.

His words were correct.

They, too, were uneasy.

They were just rcenaries, holding on for dear life to protect their clients.

I know youre the one who set this up. You have the switch to control this situation.

As Im Do-hon spoke those words, the eyes of several of the players hired by the private changed.

He realized that so of them hadnt fully grasped the full extent of the monster attack.

Surrounded by monsters, there was no need to make them enemies.

Rather, he needed them on his side.

Speak.

Im Do-hoon stamped his foot and threatened, and the players didnt try to stop him.

If you dont-

Lee Byung-in, whose face had turned red, struggled to breathe and whimpered.

He protested, and when he couldnt breathe anymore, he finally admitted it all.

I lost it, damn it!

It was a confession no one wanted to hear.
