I Became A Part Time Employee For Gods Chapter 5
#5. A man with SS level talent (3)
ââ¦is this the boss room?â
Everyone stood there tensely.
When I opened the door and entered the space,
it felt like a palace.
A palace in ancient Greece.
There was a bedroom covered in black silk in the middle of the circular space.
Moonlight pouring from the dome-shaped ceiling. The moonlight illuminating the bed like a light gave the entire stone room a grotesque appearance.
âThatâs bizarre⦠Is that thing lying over there the final boss?â
In response to Namgung Do-eokâs question, Damdeok looked back at the guild members.
Everyone is very tense.
âEveryone, listen carefully. From now on, we must join forces.â
Quietly and calmly, Damdeok began to explain the strategy.
These were explanations about the only weakness and power amplification of the Minotaur, the strongest creature created by the god of thunder, Thor.
Everyone held their breath and listened, and Namgung Do-ok also nodded silently. There was even solemnity in the eyes of some of the crew.
In particular, the eyes of the âguidesâ within the guild were shaking wildlyâ¦
âThatâs ridiculous. Not only the path of the labyrinth, but also the boss strategyâ¦.â
âSomething that would take us as 4-star hunters hours, even daysâ¦â
The young man in front of us was accomplishing it all by himself in an hour.
They even felt skeptical about the life they had led.
ââ¦.â
âThen letâs start right away.â
âI understand. âDonât do that.â
Starting with Damdeokâs words, the operation was carried out secretly but as quickly as possible.
Four quick-footed members of the unit each grabbed an end of the black silk of the bedroom and kicked off the wall and flew up.
Sigh!
As the black silk rolled up covered the open ceiling, the bright bedroom suddenly became dark.
â Crrrrrrrâ¦!
The monster crouching in the center of the bedroom slowly raised its head.
A monster with the head of a bull but a human underneath. Minotaur.
â Wow!!
The thunderous roar of the thing filled the stone room, and immediately the Minotaurâs angry horns turned towards the front.
âNow is the time!!â
As Damdeok shouted, the guild members who had already surrounded the bedroom rushed out.
âIt was said that you get strength from the moonlight.â
It was something I overheard in a conversation between unknown gods while toiling in a dungeon.
It is said that the Minotaurâs power is amplified by moonlight.
If the battle continues without blocking the moonlight, the Minotaurâs power will continue to increase and eventually the entire dungeon will collapse.
So the priority was to block the bright moonlight pouring in first.
And thenâ¦
âBehind the horns! âAll shooters, aim behind the horns!â
Although it was only for a moment, this area was particularly transparent compared to other places.
The back of the horn is the Minotaurâs only weak point!
âUracha!â
Namgung Do-eok was the first to charge in with his double axes raised.
Letâs go! Sparks fly from the Minotaurâs horn along with a harsh sound.
âletâs go!â
âSupport the guild leader!â
Afterwards, all members of the attack team rushed to the back of the horn.
Kagang! Kaga River! visor!
Attacks pouring in without stopping.
The Minotaurâs body gradually pushed back.
âalso. âIt will be cleared more smoothly than you think.â
It would be a natural result since he knew his weakness and even blocked the power of the moonlight.
There is only one thing left now.
âLetâs be quiet and not be disturbed.â
With my current skills, it would only be a hindrance.
I quietly moved to a corner of the boss room.
I felt the strong gaze of the support team members already gathered, but I tried to ignore it.
âPlease take a look. Iâve just awakened, but I canât lie around with the Minotaur.â
Usually, only hunters who specialize in combat step up to attack bosses.
The principle was that the remaining guides, porters, magic stone extractors, etc. should wait in the back to avoid danger.
âFor the support team, even one hit from the boss is fatal.â
And that would be the same for me, who had just awakened.
This is a different problem from lizards and tarantula goblins.
âTskcha.â
I comfortably took a seat in a corner and uploaded my profile.
âWow, it looks like a lot.â
There were quite a few skills that came to mind throughout the battle.
It was fun to watch.
[Talents: Swordsmanship Talent (SS), Martial Arts Talent (SS)]
[Skills: Combat Concentration (S) Boxing (E+) Dagger Skills (E) Instant Charge (F) Counterattack (F)â¦.]
âHmm? But Iâve never heard of anyone developing a skill called boxing?â
I clearly saw the emergence of âjabsâ and âuppercutsâ, but boxing⦠I
tilted my head for a moment and realized.
âah! âItâs a combination!â
Fusion of skills.
Skills of the same attribute are combined to evolve into a stronger skill.
It was amazing.
âThis is why talented people become stronger.â
They would have continued to create and fuse skills to obtain more powerful skills.
âItâs a good system.â
Damdeok grinned and closed the profile window.
âI got two top talents. The skills you will acquire in the future will be much greater than today.â
Whether you like it or not, your life will unfold in a new way.
âGoodbye to the talentless Yoo Dam-deok!â
âWaaaaaa!!!!ân/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
A shout was heard at good timing.
When I looked up, I saw Namgung Do-eok holding the Minotaurâs horn and riding on top of it.
âItâs over!!!â
At the same time as Namgung Do-eokâs loud cry, the ax blade struck the back of the horn loudly.
â Grrrr!
That was the end of it.
A clear message appeared before everyoneâs eyes, and the Minotaurâs huge body collapsed with a loud noise.
Damdeok just stared blankly at the message in front of him.
âIs this a clear messageâ¦.â
Yu Dam-deok. 27 years of talentless life.
It was the first time I cleared a dungeon in my life.
* * *
bright.
As soon as I came outside, my eyes were squinted from the bright sunlight.
âItâs different from the dark dungeon.â
Dozens, if not hundreds, of voices were heard.
âNamgoong Do-eok. âPlease say something!â
âI heard that all other raids are lost. Is there a secret to clearing them?â
âIs it completely cleared?â
âHow was it possible to clear the raid so quickly with just one raid?â
âPlease tell us your thoughts!â
I was out of my mind.
The sunlight pouring down on me was enough to distract me, but with camera flashes popping up all over the place and microphones constantly being asked, I was completely exhausted before I even took a few steps.
No, honestly, it was impossible to move forward at all.
My eyebrows naturally furrowed.
No, thatâs right.
We had been fighting hard, but this wasnât a team killâ¦
I desperately wanted to hurry up and rest comfortably, but the reporters had no intention of opening a path.
I looked at the reporters with a look of incomprehension, but the other guild members were calmly staring straight ahead as if they were used to it.
Namgung Do-eok slowly opened his mouth.
âFirst of all, let me start by telling the people that Seoul is safe. âAs of now, the labyrinth dungeon has been completely cleared.â
At those words, cheers and applause erupted from all over.
In response to the enthusiastic reactions of citizens, reporters began to ask questions in more excited voices.
Most of the questions were about how it was possible to clear it so quickly and what was difficult about the large-scale labyrinth dungeon.
Namgung Do-eok cleared his throat for a moment.
And then he slowly opened his mouth.
âItâs all thanks to this young man here.â
The person Namgung Do-eok extended his hand and introduced.
It was me.
ââ¦â
I was taken aback for a moment.
Numerous cameras and peopleâs eyes were focused at once.
No, of course my contribution is great, but suddenlyâ¦
âPlease introduce yourself!â
âHow did you help me?â
âDid you know the strategy?â
âThis is my first time seeing you, where do you belong?â
âTell me something!â
A barrage of questions comes in like angry waves.
I looked at Namgoong Do-eok with a look of help, but he just smiled silently.
As if he was also curious about my identityâ¦
âThis is so difficult.â
Arenât you a normal person who has just discovered your talent, let alone a hunter?
An ordinary person with no guild or membership helped conquer the dungeon? It was obvious that it would be a hassle.
No, it goes beyond that and may raise unnecessary suspicions.
After thinking for a while, I opened my mouth.
âAffiliation and guild are not important.â
Everyone was silent at my words.
There were some people who were chatting among themselves, perhaps because it was an unexpected answer.
âThe important thing is that we cleared the unprecedentedly deformed dungeon that appeared in the middle of Seoul today with our countryâs power alone. âWithout any help from any foreign power.â
The reportersâ mouths opened slightly.
They probably think it touched on a sensitive diplomatic issue.
However, the gathered citizens began to rave with cheerful expressions, shouting,
âWow! âThatâs cool!â
âSo whatâs important about affiliation? âWeâre all Korean kids!â
âThe two-block haircut is awesome!â
I scratched my freshly cut two-block hair and looked at people.
Have you ever received so much attention in your life?
Honestly, it was awkward.
But I didnât feel like I really hated it.
Okay,
just skip it like this.
Now I can go home and relaxâ¦.
âAre those words aimed at the U.S. forces stationed in Korea?â
âThen what do you think about this Hunter Agreement with the United States?â
âPlease give us your opinion on the G9âs proposed international hunter issue!â
The reporters seemed to think it was time to rush in like a swarm of bees.
It canât go on like this.
I made my way through the crowd with a fake smile, like something a celebrity would wear.
âI donât know, that kind of thing. What do I know?â
It is a public fact that the U.S. Hunter Bureau has been established at a U.S. military base in Korea.
It is also true that in return for their help, they take away 30% of the dungeon shares.
But what about today?
American hunters, who are said to be able to fly for a long time, spent all their time wandering around without being able to find their way. I donât know everything about diplomacy, the international situation, the Hunter Agreement, etc.
I justâ¦.
âIâm Korean. Thatâs all I belong to.â
He spoke firmly to reporters who kept asking about his affiliation.
It was annoying so I was told to please stay away.
âOooh! âItâs Ambassador Joo-wook!â
âCorea Power!â
The citizens were so enthusiastic that they even shouted cheers.
Some people even set up human barricades and escorted the way out.
Thanks to this, Damdeok was able to get out of there safely.
* * *
Only after confirming that the subway door was closed did I lean back against the backrest.
Somehow the day is long.
Real-time news was coming out of the electronic display board above.
âHa what is that again?â
The face of the person in the video was familiar.
A video I made a while ago about my affiliation as Korean. It was edited briefly and repeated.
What followed was an interview with compliments from hunters who had cleared it together, and an interview filled with cheers from citizens.
As I stared at the screen in bewilderment, a familiar message appeared before my eyes.
[Yoo Damdeok, the lowest level god! The recognition of your name soars!]
[Your spiritual power increases according to the value of your name!]
âWhat?â
As for divine powerâ¦
it was clearly a word that was listed as a qualification in the godsâ announcement.
âthatâs right. âI was able to apply for Thorâs part-time job because he was a non-spiritual officer.â
In other cases, it was not possible to apply due to the limitation of having a minimum physical strength of 1,000 or more.
But what does it mean that the physical strength has increased?
Before I could even understand their meaning, welcome messages came to my mind one after another.
[New job posting has opened!]
