A green fog suddenly appeared at the Demon guild’s entrance, and with it came countless messages .

[You have attacked user ‘Rakol’ . ]

[You have entered an ‘enemy’ state with user Rakol . ]

[User Rakol has a high infamy score . ]

[Your infamy score will not rise . ]

[You have attacked user ‘White’ . ]

[You have entered an ‘enemy’ state with user White . ]

[User White has a high infamy score . ]

[Your infamy score will not rise . ]

[ . . ]

Soo Hyuk was staring into the silent fog, preparing for any Demon guild members that might charge out . From their silhouettes, he could tell that some were trying to escape disorderly, while some weren’t moving at all .

‘Is it paralysis?’

The users that weren’t moving inside the fog must’ve fallen into a paralysis state .

“Soo Hyuk? Isn’t this bastard the one we were searching for? The one with a kill order?”

“This fucker doesn’t know any fear! Where does he think this is!?”

“What, he’s here?”

“He’s crazy . ”

“Is he that Soo Hyuk?”

“I think so? Didn’t they say he wasn’t in a guild? This bastard’s not in one either . ”

Soo Hyuk checked inside the fog just in case, but they were all Demon guild members .

The users that could still move were haphazardly trying to escape while cursing loudly . It was a pandemonium in there . Meanwhile, there were a few people that the fog couldn’t cover or those that managed to escape the fog .

“Flame Dance . ”

Soo Hyuk first aimed Flame Dance at the Demon guild members that the poison fog couldn’t affect .

Shuak!

The small wisp of fire flew from his hands and wreaked havoc amongst the Demon guild members . After that, he continuously cast magic after magic at the escaping guild members .

“Firebolt, Poison Sphere, Poison Blast, Poison Chains, Firestorm . ”

[You have attacked user ‘Raiden’ . ]

[You have entered an ‘enemy’ state with user Raiden . ]

[User Raiden has a high infamy score . ]

[Your infamy score will not rise . ]

[You have attacked user ‘Kyakya’ . ]

[You have entered an ‘enemy’ state with user Kyakya . ]

[User Kyakya has a high infamy score . ]

[Your infamy score will not rise . ]

Numerous messages appeared every time he cast a spell . As Soo Hyuk glanced at the messages, he thought,

‘Fortunately, they’re all criminals . ’

All the Demon guild members had a high infamy score without exception, which meant that his own infamy score wouldn’t rise even if he killed them . If some of them had a low infamy score? He himself could be branded as a criminal after this . As he leisurely fired one spell after another, the Demon guild were falling around him like flies .

At that moment .

“Hey! Look at that fucker!”

“This crazy bastard!

Soo Hyuk heard faint cries from behind his back . The other Demon guild members were returning after getting a message .

“Magic Missile, Inferno . ”

He first cast his available magic at the returning Demon guild members . As they collapsed without any resistance, he thought,

‘I think this is enough for them to divert their attention for a while . ’

He had killed Demon guild members right in their turf . If nothing unexpected happened, the members in Hedlin would be called back to investigate around Hadrac .

‘I’ll see you again after my holiday . ’

After swearing in his mind, Soo Hyuk then ran to a corner . Making sure he was out of sight, he then teleported to the Archmage’s Subspace .

“Archmage’s Subspace . ”

[Warping to the Archmage’s Subspace . ]

Soo Hyuk took his mask off when he arrived at the subspace . Then he started walking towards the tunnel to head back to Hedlin .

‘They were a lot weaker than I expected . ’

He had expected that they wouldn’t be very difficult . The three men that he had killed first: Loken, Mandara and Haiden, were treated as being on the strong side of the Demon guild . But it turned to be not ‘not hard’, but ‘very easy’ .

‘Maybe I should’ve cleaned them out completely?’

While reflecting, he arrived at Hedlin .

“Please wait!”

“We’ll be using it first!”

Soo Hyuk, who had arrived at Hedlin, saw the Demon guild members rushing to the warp gates . They were trying to cut the line so that they could use the warp gates faster . It was likely because of the turmoil in Hadrac .

‘It worked out as I expected . ’

Soo Hyuk sighed in relief while looking around . He would’ve been in a tough spot if they hadn’t reacted to his actions, but it had turned out well .

‘I can finally relax with my parents in peace . ’

He had successfully diverted their attention from Hedlin, so his plan was a resounding success . After glancing at the panicking Demon guild, he headed for a bakery . He had promised his parents after all .

“Welcome!”

“Hello . ”

Soo Hyuk looked around the bakery after receiving the baker’s greeting . The stock ranged from the basic hard bread to the crazy high-end bread that cost over 30 gold .

‘Should I buy some of everything?’

His situation was different from when he first started Pangea . Breads costing 30 gold were in his range of ‘acceptable’ . So, he bought 3 of each kind except the hard bread . Walking out of the bakery, he sent a message to his dad, Ji Song .

-Soo Hyuk: Dad, where are you?

-Ji Song: Oh, is this how you do it?

-Ji Song: Ah, I did it!

-Ji Song: Come to the third gate! I’ll be waiting there!

-Soo Hyuk: I’ll be right there .

ραΠdαsΝοvel.cοm Soo Hyuk smiled after sending the message . He could enjoy his holiday now .

* * *

Baal asked disbelievingly .

“Rhino said he didn’t know?”

He was suspicious . Rhino should’ve been able to dig up information about some poison magician, but he suddenly couldn’t? Haggis replied to Baal’s question .

“Yes, he doesn’t know . He said there a poison magician like that . ”

Rhino definitely said that he didn’t know . That there was no such poison magician . Then, Baal remarked at Haggis’ answer . I think you should take a look at ραΠdαsnovel.cοm

“Hmm, it’s weird . They clearly said that it was a poison tower robe .

He was also a user, not an NPC . And for users to be able to wear the Tower of Poison’s robe, they had to pass their test first . There was no other way to get a poison tower robe . One couldn’t exchange, drop or buy it as well .

“Did Loken make a mistake somehow?”

There was a possibility that this Soo Hyuk was wearing something similar to the poison tower’s robe .

“But Haiden couldn’t have mistaken it as well..”

Baal considered the possibility that Loken could’ve mistaken it, but immediately rejected the thought . Two people couldn’t make the same mistake . There was a possibility, but it would be pitifully low .

“But the thing is..”

Haggis opened his mouth while Baal was muttering to himself .

“I don’t think Rhino’s telling the truth . ”

“..Hmm”

Baal cocked his head at Haggis’ words .

“What do mean, he’s not telling the truth? How could you tell?”

“His eyes . ”

During the conversation, Haggis had always had an uncomfortable feeling .

“How should I put it, it was like he was pretending not to know . ”

“What?”

Baal exclaimed in surprise .

“Of course, I’m not 100% sure . ”

Haggis quickly continued at Baal’s reaction . He wasn’t certain, it was merely a gut feeling .

“Hmm..”

Baal murmured .

“If it’s as you said..”

Baal trailed off but then quickly continued .

“Then he must be at a tricky location, or he’s someone out of our leag..”

At that moment, Baal suddenly froze with a confused frown .

“..?”

Haggis made a suspicious expression at Baal’s sudden change . Why had he stopped talking? Did something big happen?

“Haa.. Unbelievable . ”

Baal muttered quietly .

“What happened?”

Asked Haggis .

“Well..”

Baal then trailed off again . Then he looked at the message again .

-Rako: Soo Hyuk suddenly appeared at the guild house! He’s attacking the guild members .

‘This crazy bastard . ’

He couldn’t put it any other way . Baal turned his eyes away from the message to Haggis, who was waiting for his answer .

“This Soo Hyuk is apparently just outside the door?”

“What?”

Haggis frowned at the unexpected answer .

“Is he insane?”historical

Did he even know where this was?

“I’ll take care of it . ”

Haggis sighed as he stood up from his seat . He hadn’t planned to be actively involved with the hunt, but it couldn’t be helped now since Soo Hyuk was at the front door . After exiting the room, he kept walking to the gates of the guild house . When he came out of the building, Haggis could see a thick green gas covering the gates .

‘..Poison fog?’

Haggis thought as he stared at the green gas . The reason other members couldn’t get in was likely because of the poison fog .

“Is that a poison fog?”

He asked a nearby guild member .

“It is . ”

The guild member replied while nodding .

“Isn’t there anyone who can use wind or fire magic?”

Haggis then asked the guild members in his surroundings . They could blow away the poison gas with wind or fire magic, but no one answered his call . Haggis stared at the silent guild members gripping various weapons like swords and spears and sighed deeply .

‘Do I have to break through with force?’

It seemed like the only way they could get past the poison fog was to break through forcibly . After steeling himself, Haggis plunged himself into the thick green fog .

[You have been poison by the Blood Troll’s Poison . ]

[You will bleed for 1 minute . ]

[You have been poisoned by Snake Venom . ]

[You will be frozen for 1 minute . ]

[All movement speed will be reduced by 10%]

[You have entered an ‘enemy’ state with user ‘Soo Hyuk’ . ]

Numerous messages appeared when he entered the poison fog . Then when he looked at the status ailments, Haggis quickly checked his health while running .

“This fucking scam . ”

Haggis hurriedly opened his inventory and took out a health potion after he looked at his current health . His health was depleting at an outrageous rate . Then after taking the potion and successfully breaking through the fog, Haggis couldn’t help but curse again .

“Fuck! What the heck is this!”

A massive fire tornado was coming towards him . Haggis hesitated for a moment, then jumped into the green gas again . Then while taking a health potion again, he ran towards the guild house .

“Eh, vice guild master?”

The guild members who were waiting outside the fog made a surprised expression when Haggis appeared again in a ragged state . They were confused about why Haggis had come back so quickly, but Haggis wasn’t in a situation to explain .

Haggis quickly took a purifying potion to get rid of his bleeding and frozen state, then sent Baal, who was still in the room, a message .

-Haggis: Outside’s a complete mess .

-Baal: What do you mean?

-Haggis: There’s poison fog, fire tornados and shit at the gates!

-Baal: What? Firestorm?

-Haggis: Yes! First call back the guys in Hedlin . No one here can resolve the situation!

-Baal: Alright .

Shuaak!

The poison fog disappeared when he ended his talk with Baal . It looked like the effect duration had run out . When Haggis looked outside, he couldn’t see the Firestorm either, but he frowned when he looked at what was there .

‘Shit . ’

There were numerous corpses everywhere . And the mark of the Demon guild was still glowing faintly on the corpses .
