They finally have fully entered Gangdong-gu and the density of the strange grasses covering the ground increased.

Dirty trees grew between buildings and there were small beasts running on the trees.

Gangdong-gu was already half of another world.

Han Sooyoung bit her lips and asked, “Are we too late? What if the disaster has already awakened?”

“It hasn’t happened yet. Then we would’ve received the scenario.” Kim Dokja answered.

The group took a few more steps and saw several markings on the ground.

It looked like graffiti but it was actually a territorial display.

It was a warning that no one should enter.

From here on, it was the area of the Poisoner.

Like the other wanderers, she settled in Gangdong-gu and started to expand her base.

The progress was faster than what Kim Dokja expected.

The people looking at it and some of the prophets asked Kim Dokja about it for explanations.

From the time they start the journey to Gangdong-gu, Choi Han has been silent and seems to be observing the other.

It makes Kim Dokja feel uncomfortable because he can’t read his mind and Choi Han seems to be different right now.

But when he tried to check his status, someone talked to him.

Han Sooyoung said, “If this group is well guarded, it won’t be easy to attack… Have you thought of something?”

No. I didn’t intend to wage an all-out war in the first place. Kim Dokja shake his head.

“We only need the meteorite. We can just steal it. I will buy time while you take the meteorite.” Then Kim Dokja explained what they should do.

However, it wouldn’t be so easy.

The story might be different if they had an assistant like the Wanderer King and they didn’t know if Choi Han and the cultists will help them.

If they could get some help from Choi Han, it would be easier and they would also get the help from the cultists that following them.
As Kim Dokja thought about it, Yoo Jonghyuk interrupted.

There is no need to rush. Even if the disaster begins, the Disaster of Questions is a disaster that can be suppressed at an early stage.

An early suppression. Indeed, it was possible for Yoo Jonghyuk. Kim Dokja thought while remembering about the Ways of Survival.

Early suppression? Who will do that? Are you a half god?
Kim Dokja replied.

Of course it should be you. Weren’t you thinking about it anyway?
Yoo Jonghyuk answer.

Why do you think that? Kim Dokja curious with what Yoo Jonghyuk said.

You have already woken up the guide and received the Way of the Wind.

Based on his tone, Yoo Jonghyuk was slightly anger that Kim Dokja had taken the Way of the Wind that he was supposed to learn.

Kim Dokja said with a smile.
-I didn’t learn it.

-…Why? There wasn’t enough time? Yoo Jonghyuk seemed to be a bit confused.

I’m actually glad. Looking at Yoo Jonghyuk reaction, Kim Dokja feel a little better as he answered him truthfully.

No, I don’t have talent.

After Kim Dokja answered, he could feel Yoo Jonghyuk’s deep contempt in his silence.

You, from the beginning

“There are people.”
The moment Kim Dokja heard Han Sooyoung’s words, Kim Dokja raised Unbroken Faith.

It was the territory of one of the 10 Evils so the peple would naturally belong to their group.

Kim Dokja entrusted Yoo Jonghyuk to Han Sooyoung’s avatar.

“…I will be gone for a while so take him. Do you understand?”

There is some people whispered about something like ‘What a shame.’ Or ‘Do you think that the ship will continue?’ from the cultists but Kim Dokja decided to ignored them.

The people were getting closer.

But something felt strange. Usually it wasn’t so loud when a single group moved. Then the clear voice of a woman was heard in front of us.

“Everybody run towards Cheonho Bridge!”
It wasn’t the Poisoner’s group.

They weren’t as powerful was the Wanderer King’s group but some people who survived the Poisoner’s Group were escaping from Gangdong-gu.

The unarmed survivors gasped for air when they found them.

“O-Out of the way! Hurry!”

Terrible arrows came flying towards them.

“Dodge!” For the first time Choi Han spoke.

The man who spoke to Kim Dokja fell down after being pushed by Choi Han.

He almost gets hit by the arrow.

They quickly look at the place where the arrow stabbed on the ground.

It was became discoloured and blackened.

It was poison.

The person who had been saved by Choi Han turned pale.

“Get those scum!”
The person in the Poisoner’s group shouted.

Dozens of men and women simultaneously fired arrows.

The moment they tried to avoid it by moving behind a building, threads of silk spread out in the air.

Dozens of webs were arranged at once, causing the arrows to become tangled in the thread and not go any further.

Han Sooyoung’s eyes widened.

“…What the hell is that technique?”

In fact, it was fired from behind the Poisoner’s group.

The thread was like steel wire.

The sharpness of the thread caused the legs of people to fly through the air.

“Kuaaak!”

All the threads were connected to one woman.

The woman wearing a tight black battle suit flew through the air.

Two knives stretched out from the fingers of the woman brilliantly riding the thread of magic.

The woman freely manipulated the length of the thread and she swept away the Poisoner’s group in an instant.

There wasn’t any hesitation in her hand.

The movements were beyond beautiful.

The combination of stats and skills showed that she didn’t have an ordinary sponsor.

[The information of this person can’t be read in ‘Character List.’]

[This person isn’t registered in ‘Character List.’]

She wasn’t even on the Character List.
Han Sooyoung muttered. “Hey, that woman…”

Kim Dokja knew without her saying anything.

It was because this woman was someone he knew.

“…Yoo Sangah-ssi?” One of the cultists said with confused tones.

Kim Dokja feels more confused as he hadn’t met her in two days yet she was completely different from the girl he knew.
