The Return of Apocalypses Tyrant

Episode 57

▶ The proxy auction, in which the proxy clan searches for their own contractor, begins in a week!

▶ If you receive support from your clan, you can gain powerful power and Noble Phantasms.

▶ However, not everyone can receive support from their clan.

▶ Appeal your value to your agent clan so that they can sign a contract with you.

Churrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr…!!

With the notification, a cluster of lights appeared in front of Namgung and formed an image.

It was a map with the location where the auction would begin.

The location on the map pointed to an artificial island created along the Han River.

“…It’s Sebitseom.”

When the map was enlarged, three islands appeared under Banpo Bridge.

Namgung frowned slightly as he looked at the place, as if recalling a not-so-good memory.

[Okay then. I wish you luck. Please continue to do well in the future. Because I am on the same boat as you.]

Yor said, lightly waving his hand.

[I hope we can meet again with a smile next time.]

▶ Don’t miss the opportunity.

▶ You will be able to enjoy future festivals.

▶ However, the lives of participants are not guaranteed in the auction.

Just before he disappeared, he said to Namgoong, twirling his finger as if to remind him to remember the last alarm.

“…That’s not even funny.”

The reason why I don’t have a good memory of Some Sevit was because of the ending of that last sentence.

-trot! Alek Traman announces dungeon strategy!!

-Prove the power of the Great Revelator!

-Who are the remaining Revelators?!

Tiring –

The cell phone rang and a sound indicating breaking news appeared on the screen.

-The world’s attention is being paid to Eighty Revelators, Palmuseong (八武星)!

-Is it really possible for the surrogate clan and contractors to also gain this kind of power?! Will this be a new opportunity?…

Alec’s strategy for conquering the labyrinth appeared in the news, and people who were anxious to survive now began to pay attention to the unusual power of the Revelator.

At first, surviving the reality that I thought was hell was my top priority.

However, with the appearance of the Revelator, people will now have a desire to have power beyond survival.

‘And then, as if woven, the auction of the Dali clan begins.’

Namgung could only laugh at this situation.

‘The participants in the auction have no way of knowing. ‘Revelators have already received benefits from the free quest and participated in the festival.’

However, except for the Revelator, everyone else just faced this situation normally.

‘We’ve only just finished the second door. Most of them are just lucky to survive, but only a few people hunt monsters.’

And as a result, no one survived the first day of the auction house, where tens of thousands of people gathered in each country.

The auction starts in a week, but that doesn’t mean it will be decided in a week.

“It’s been a week…”

During that time, the blood of the corpses that filled Sevitseom will overflow and flow into the Han River.

“Whoa…”

He had to send his daughter to a place like that.

His qualities were superior to anyone else’s.

However, I was worried about whether the delicate Somin would do well in such a hellish state.

‘The auction begins after a representative is selected from the clan’s jurisdiction.’

That meant that only after being selected at the auction and being chosen as a contractor for the Yasha clan could one become a contractor for another clan.

8 proxy clans.

However, there are 16 candidates for the auction, not 8.

In the case of the Yasha clan, like the Gyu-ryu and Hyeon-ryu, there were hierarchies and factions within the clan.

There are many other Yashas as well, but in any case, when the auction begins, each clan will be able to select two candidates.

‘And with those 16 people, the clan will hold a final auction.’

Although I was selected despite many difficulties, it was never a happy reward.

‘The other half who were not selected by 8 clans out of 16 will just become corpses like the other participants.’

A strength gained by stepping on the blood of tens of thousands of people.

Could this really be hope?

Namgung was still not sure if this choice was the right one.

“dad!”

It was then.

While he was worrying, Somin came to him.

“Did you hear the notification a little while ago? “The proxy auction starts in a week.”

“Yeah, but are we going to participate too?”

“okay. “Myeong-Hoon and the others won’t go, just you and Dad will go.”

“Uhm… just the two of us? why?”

“It’s a place not everyone can go. And it’s something other people can’t do. But… like this world, it won’t look very good. “Somin, you don’t have to go if you don’t want to.”

Namgung looked at his daughter and spoke in a worried voice.

“You have to fight. right?”

Namgung slowly nodded to her question.

“that’s right. “Dad will help you… but you might have to watch people die right before your eyes.”

For a moment, Somin’s eyes wavered.

It was not something a 13-year-old child, barely a middle school student, could handle.

“I will do it. “What should I do?”

But contrary to his worries, Somin answered without any hesitation.

“It’s not an easy decision. It means you have to compete to become the clan’s contractor.”

“I know. “But it’s the first time.”

“…huh?”

“That’s what dad asked me to do together. Up until now, I’ve always just told you to stay behind. It’s dangerous, it can’t be done. “That was all I said.”

“Ah…”

Namgung let out a sigh that was like a sigh without realizing it in response to his daughter’s answer.

“Isn’t the reason you asked me because it’s something only I can do?”

At that moment, he remembered what Myeong-Hoon had said at the National Cemetery where he had caught the Goblin Lord.

This means that the child is not as young as they think.

“okay. that’s right. Somin, this is something only you can do. And it is also an opportunity for you to gain the strength to live in this world in the future.”

“huh. Then I will do it.”

Somin answered towards Namgung.

“Even though I can’t save as many people as my father… I don’t want to be a burden.”

‘Saving many people…’

How does she see herself now in her daughter’s eyes?

Will he be seen as a hero who took down the world boss and closed the gates of hell?

But Namgung could not easily be happy about those words. Because his hands had already been stained with blood for a long time.

“Dad, it’s the same. “I just want to protect the people around me…or honestly, if I can protect my daughter, that’s enough.”

“Then dad protect me. “I will become strong and protect the people around me, Dad!”

Somin clenched her fists and nodded as if she had made up her mind.

“And Dad too.”

Namgung lightly hugged his daughter after hearing her words.

As if trying to feel the warmth in his arms, Somin wrapped her arms around his waist more tightly.

“Iceland? “Why are you there all of a sudden?”

“There’s someone I need to meet before the proxy auction. “There’s about a week left… so time will run out.”

When Namgung, who had summoned the group to the fortress, told them of his next plan, Myeonghun was slightly surprised and asked back.

“Can we go together too?”

Gyeongin asked.

“no. Just Somin and I are going. And for the rest of us, don’t pay any attention to proxy auctions. The notification will keep ringing. “They will persistently tempt you.”

Namgoong repeatedly emphasized this as if he was receiving a promise.

“Help is available. You can gain strength… I will entice you with many sweet words. But you must never pass over it.”

“All right.”

“Especially the voice actor. “Make sure you keep your mind steady so you don’t get shaken.”

“yes yes. “I’ll keep that in mind.”

However, Namgung still gave Jeon Tae-ho a look, as if uneasy at the sight of him shrinking.

Taeho Jeon, who understood the meaning, nodded lightly and patted Seongwoo’s shoulder.

“Our goal is to target the red zone that will be created when the third door opens after the proxy auction ends. Hojun and Myunghoon train the voice actors.”

“There’s only a week left. Do you mind?”

“Because I’m not telling you to do anything right away. There is definitely a difference between growing with runes and learning things on your own. “It’s not something that will end in 12 years… It’s about building up and thinking about the next 10 years.”

“yes. I guess we can take him to our unit’s training ground. Voice actor, I’ll be tough on you!!”

“Ah… thank you.”

Seongwoo smiled awkwardly and nodded at Hojun’s mood.

“older brother. “After the second monster wave, I saw that the items in the Yaksha bundle had changed.”

“that’s right.”

Namgung responded to Myung-Hoon’s words.

“It was well said. If you look at the Yaksha bundle, you will probably find new textbooks at a low price. “It’s better to learn them.”

It was a reward rather than a feeble one given to the survivors who survived until the second door.

“There is a wide variety of skills, from swordsmanship to martial arts and blunt techniques… to archery and gunplay. The price is only 20 heads… Should I just learn all of this?”

Hojun asked after opening the Yacha bundle and checking the list.

“Wow, they say things like gunplay and archery allow you to automatically aim at your target? “If you buy it and use it right away, the effect will be applied…”

His eyes lit up as he read the explanations in the textbooks.

“okay. If you learn the archery textbook, your accuracy will definitely increase. Maybe… the general public will also like the former player?”

“Then isn’t it huge?”

“But those who have learned the textbook cannot do anything else until the moment they draw the string of the bow, the power of the textbook is activated and they shoot an arrow at the target. “You know what that means, right?”

Namgung spoke in a low voice.

“It’s like there’s a motion. “Do you mean it’s programmed in some way?”

“Then it would be difficult to react in a moment of crisis. Shooting a bow itself becomes a priority action.”

“you’re right.”

The first to understand his words was father and son Jeon Tae-ho, who also used a bow.

“The textbook will be of great help in the beginning. But as time goes by, the textbook will eventually catch up with you. “What we will learn is the physical textbook.”

Everyone scrolled through the list of bundles to find the textbook.

“During training, it slightly increases the overall grade of physical qualifications. It’s a bit different from other textbooks. “There are a lot of training lists…”

Myung-hoon, who was reading the explanation in the textbook, said to Namgung.

“If it goes up based on the number of monsters you hunt, it won’t help you hunt even if you learn it right away.”

“If you happen to die after learning it… it would be useless. “How many people will buy this now?”

“That’s it. That’s what they’re after. They put poison on the candy in front of them. “If you can’t control your body at will, it’s like jumping into a pit of fire.”

“It’s terrible.”

Namgung nodded at Myung-hoon’s reaction.

“Before the red zone opens, practice dungeons will be created. “It’s not a dangerous place, so everyone should learn the body teaching book and then train there.”

“All right.”

“Never go alone. “It’s not the dungeon that’s dangerous, it’s the people that are dangerous.”

“yes.”

“I’ll keep that in mind.”

They responded to Namgung’s words with tense faces.

“Other than textbooks, you may purchase anything you think you need. Just leave 1000 heads. “Because you will need it if you go to the red zone.”

“So how do you plan on getting to Iceland? The airport would also be closed….”

“What good is power?”

Squeak –

it was then.

I heard a car stop outside the door.

After seeing Park Hyo-joo getting out of the sedan, Myung-hoon nodded as if he understood.

* * *

“What’s going on in Iceland all of a sudden?”

Park Hyo-joo, who drove the car herself to have a comfortable conversation with Namgoong, quietly asked the man sitting next to her.

“I’m going to go find someone. “I sent you a message about things you need to do while I’m away, so please check them.”

“All right. But if you’re looking for someone, wouldn’t it be better to tell us? Still, the name is the National Intelligence Service, but the only thing they can do is look for people…”

“You won’t be able to find them. Even if it’s the National Intelligence Service.”

“Uhm… who is that?”

“Druid.”

Park Hyo-joo frowned slightly and tilted her head in response to Namgung’s answer.

“A druid… is he one of the Revelators?”

“Of course, there are among the Revelators. But the person I’m looking for is not a fake who was chosen by the Aspect and suddenly became a Druid.”

he said

“A real druid.”
