The D-Rank Guild Mas Chapter 40

1st place Guild's D-class Guild Leader Episode 40

* * *

I thought as I walked across the jungle with my breath on my chin.

'Well, was it a hasty move to pre-record 'headhunting' for Erkata?'

Suddenly, it occurred to

that the viewers and other guild leaders would be watching

sprint.

But there wasn't much to it.

If you don't take a headhunt, you won't be able to run according to the navigation in the status window.

In Nahean's case, I kept telling Gio and Canhar where they were so that they could find it.

But now that I don't have anyone to tell

about it, the "headhunting" declaration was essential.

In fact, you may not need to go out of your way to do this for the sake of one Erkata.

He's the only character who isn't allowed to cheat. Maybe it's better to let them die and get rid of the cheat's flaws.......

But I have a different opinion.

First of all, if I know why cheats don't work for Erkata, I might be able to figure out why I got into this ga.

Second, it reminds

of 'reality'. It reminds

of what I was and what kind of attitude I should have in this ga.

It prevents

from being "encroached upon by the ga and becoming a complete ga character."

At first glance, she looks really pretty.

'Yes, whatever they know about

or whatever, they are free to think.'

As I ran like crazy, I could feel my stamina draining. Each ti, I took a short break and ran again.

It was a hellish level of training, but it's not unfamiliar.

I'm used to overworking myself before round 1.5 starts.

Strapping.

Leaning against a tree, I was catching my breath for about the ninth ti, when suddenly the sound of a broadcast echoed through the field.

[The 'gaphone' item has been used.]

The chanical guiding tones were soon replaced by a low, slurred voice.

["Hahahahaha! I'm looking for another gaphone enhancent item! Is everything in the world on my side?"]

As soon as you hear the voice, your facial muscles contort. Ominously, it was a voice I had heard before.

The broadcast was interrupted for a mont, then replaced by a chanical voice.

[The 'gaphone' item has been enhanced.]

[From now on, all 'Loudspeaker' items will be converted to enhanced 'Camcorder' items.]

Jiying, I hear a mild tinnitus.

Then, in front of , a translucent screen popped up in front of .

["Rudel! You're listening to , aren't you? Look closely! I have what you want!"]

A man with a familiar face who is screaming as if he is broadcasting privately.

He was the man I once used as a sacrifice to awaken my unique powers, and then as a scapegoat for Gio's abilities.

Seeing her smirk made

feel like the sweat I had shed was cooling off.

["Does this kid want it?"]

The screen was lowered to see if Isfan had moved the camcorder.

The red-haired boy was at Isfan's feet.

However, the color of her hair was a little different from the color she was used to. Originally, it was a gorgeous color, like fireworks.

The next mont, I realized that the dark red color was due to the blood he had spilled.

Blood dripped from his torn shoulder, soaking his ears and staining his hair damp. He also saw a swollen left ankle.

Isfan gripped Erkata's hair from behind.

His torso rose up, revealing the boy's mangled face on the screen.

He was panting as if he was going to pass out, but he was in agony, unable to let go of his senses.

The boy's body, which had been tornted for no reason, was already weak, as if he had resigned.

When I saw that, I felt a burning sensation rise from within.

It's not that you don't know that your opponent is a character in the ga.

As long as this place where I exist is a survival ga, I know it's funny to be obsessed with a character's death.

But as I worked with them, I realized that the characters are just as capable of feeling and thinking about pain as people in real life.

And this boy character has never done anything to deserve such cruel torture, at least.

But it's because of

that I'm going through this kind of pain.

I felt like my head was cold and my throat was clogged.

Soon the boy's face was lifted downward, and Isfan's face appeared again.

["I'm going to count three minutes from now on. Every three minutes passed, I'm going to break the rest of my ankle and wrist. How's that for you, you should hurry up?"]

It seed that Isfan had already started a ga with the Erkata.

I hesitated for a mont. Apart from the burning in his chest, he calmly rolled his head in the face of the boy's crisis.

It's obvious that this is a trap created by Yspan.

I wondered if I should take the risk and walk into it.

'But in this situation, is it really good for

not to take any risks?'

My actions have victimized an innocent young character.

In addition.......

["You must co alone. If you bring anyone else, I'll kill you imdiately."]

Seeing how he begs you to do this, it seems that he hasn't forgotten the ti he was killed by Gio yet.

I clenched my fists and tried to guess what was on his mind.

My guess is that characters who have experienced death and are resurrected usually fall into two categories.

Characters who were traumatized by having died once and were forced to withdraw in the 1.5th round.

And the characters who thought they had nothing more to lose, so they just got out.

I'm pretty sure it's the latter. It's also a madman who vowed to take revenge on .

So Erkata, that little boy.

“…….”

I closed and opened my eyes. The decision was made in an instant.

Ispan's threats can't scare . On the contrary, it will make you regret provoking

again.

I kicked my foot as hard as I could. In a split second, his body floated, and his other foot pushed the ground as hard as he could.

I wave my arms with all my might, and I put everything on the line and run at the fastest speed.

The position of the erkata in the status window has also been moved slightly. Apparently, Ispan has already seen the place where he will greet

and is moving on.

"Hah

Normal breathing beca impossible, and his throat tasted like blood.

As his C-grade stat body tries to sprint like a sprinter, the muscles in his body throb and he screams.

Isfan, you bastard.

You'll have to pay dearly for provoking .

* * *

As soon as I saw that I had reached my destination, I barely stopped in my seat, struggling to my knees.

I don't think I ran for very long, but my whole body felt like I had spent my entire life.

My legs and eyes were loose, and sweat dripped down my face.

Even as I struggled, I carefully checked the navigation in the status window.

Exactly the positions of

and the ercata overlapped by a single point.

But I couldn't see the Erkata. There is no Isfan.

Instead, it was a huge cavern in front of . I don't know the depth of it at all.

[The 'Camcorder' item has been used.]

Just as I was wondering if I should go inside, Isfan's face appeared in front of

again.

["It's ugly. Was that what you were trying to do? What can I do, it's already exceeded 3 minutes? 4:12!"]

Isfan's gaze looks down.

Tuduk.

The screams mingled with the clear sound were starkly clear.

As I gnashed my teeth, unable to say anything, Isfan chuckled and delivered the next mission.

["Erkata is in a cave, co find it! However, there is a condition."]

["There's a small potion next to the cave entrance."]

It really was. True to his word, there was a black-colored potion container next to the cave.

I figured out the efficacy of that potion.......

["You know what? That's right, it's a Trait Seal! It's deadly, especially for soone like you. Rudel, you're a weak bastard who can rely on your unique abilities.]

The screaming made

feel inferior.

You haven't changed a single thing in the midst of all this, you idiot.

["Drink it on the spot."]

After he finished speaking, there was three seconds of silence, but I didn't take any action.

["You can't drink? So you're proving that you're incompetent if you don't have unique abilities?"]

Even if you provoke

like that, I won't get over it. It's pathetic for a human being to fall for it and drink a potion.

["Yes....... I'm going to have to get this kid in."]

Isfan lowered the camcorder.

Nuts!

The screen was a dark cave. The little boy kicked Isfan's foot in the stomach and fell to the wall.

["If you don't drink the potion, all your hard work will be in vain. This kid is going to die right now."]

Isfan seems to have bet everything on

that I won't give up on Akata.

As if he had nothing to lose, his glistening eyes flashed at the camcorder for a mont.

If I were to dump the Akata here and pounce on it, I'd know it would be revenge at that mont, but I'm pretty confident.

Soon the screen rolled.

Isfan plunged the blade into Erkata's throat, which fell and flinched.

In the anti, my lungs, which had been breathing heavily, cald down a little. At least I can breathe at a certain tempo.

I took a deep breath and stared at the screen.

It's a sha for , for my guild mbers, and for the viewers who will be watching.

Isfan is right. Isfan took a great gamble.

I never stop chasing Akata.

Ispan bastard. Okay, I'll use this whole scene of

going to smash you into my narrative.

I'm crazy about directing in this ga.

I moved my paused foot and walked to the front of the entrance.

He opened the cap of the black container and shoved it down his throat in one gulp.

Before the empty container hit the floor, I plunged into the darkness
