Chapter 210: Saviour (3)
The moment the live stream started, the number of viewers skyrocketed.
—Finally turned it on?
—You're here, my love.
—What's the title?? Save Hokkaido?
—The background looks familiar, are you in Japan, bro?
"Hello, this is Kim Minwoo. Yes, I'm in Japan. This is Sapporo."
—No, how did you get there?
—Aren't they keeping a close eye on you in Japan?
—lol for real haha If a foreign Awakened comes and steals the mobs, they're screwed haha
—But how...?
"Merhen helped me. There's nothing magic can't do. It's not like teleportation, so don't worry. We all worked hard to get here."
He guessed that the number of subscribers far exceeded the number of Koreans. English was the default, and all sorts of languages were flooding in, including French and Japanese.
"People of Hokkaido, it must have been really hard. How strong was the fire to leave only the rebar in the building...?"
Sapporo was literally hell.
Everything was burning.
It was highly likely that those who died were incinerated without even feeling pain. His heart grew heavy.
"I'm going to hunt the Spirit King. Right now."
—...Bro, are you alone?
—Even if you're the world's top ranker, is this going to work?
—It's like Eva; It would be better to cooperate with the Japanese side....
"With their attitude, do you think cooperation is even possible? They're rejecting all international support."
—That's true, but....
—I'm worried for nothing. If you think it's not going to work, just run away lol
—He's so arrogant, he doesn't know when to quit haha Does he really think this is going to work?
—Isn't this just a ploy to embarrass Korea?
They say one bad comment stands out more than ten good ones.
The comment section was the same.
Even among the rapidly flowing text, there were occasional lines of mockery.
'Well, I expected it.'
Where there is light, there is always darkness. An Awakened that everyone in the world likes?
There is no such thing.
A real superstar.
Someone who has the ability to drive both fans and haters crazy.
That's what he was going to do today.
"You'll see. Whether it's recklessness or confidence. Let's go, Merhen."
—Okay.
That's when it happened.
[Miyamoto has donated 1 million won.]
—I'm a fan. The 2nd Japanese Attack Force has just departed. The Katana guild master is angry... Judging by their speed, they'll be there in 30 minutes.
"Katana? The number one guild in Japan? Thank you for the information. But 30 minutes...hmm..." most uptodate novels are published on —Is he saying he's going to catch the Spirit King in 30 minutes?
—30 minutes is a bit....
—It's too short. The Japanese seem pissed off? It looks like they're running like crazy without saving mana?
—They'll probably get there before they even hit the boss;
—Then what happens?
—What's going to happen? They'll either cooperate and hunt together or chase him away. They'll just tell him to watch."
—Shit. They have the nerve to say that when they couldn't even catch it themselves?
—Yeah, that's not Korea, it's Japan lol; Legally, monsters born in Japan belong to Japan.
—There's such a shitty law?
—Korea has the same law? No, this is a law that applies to the whole world lol
—Ah, I meant that I'm not confident he can't catch it. Look, we can see the Spirit King.
In the live stream.
Far away, the Spirit King, a mountain-like giant, could be seen.
The nearly 20-meter-tall behemoth blazed.
Hundreds of high-ranking spirits were even stationed around the Spirit King, as if guarding it. The heat was so intense that you could see the crimson steam rising.
"It's nice and easy to find."
—Are you really going to catch it?
—No matter how I look at it, it seems crazy....
—I’m an S-rank Awakened, but I’ve never seen a monster that exudes that much force.
—Isn't the streamer being too relaxed? Even the first attack team seemed to easily surpass a couple of world rankers....
—For real; They said it wasn't the most elite team, but their average level was over 700... And they still got crushed;
There were so many donations that the message was lagging. He locked the donations and said,
"You'll see. So, Hayang?"
—Coo.
Hayang, who was sitting on his shoulder, revealed herself.
—Pet Jojwa has appeared lol
[TL/N: Jojwa here is to be interpreted along the lines of Master Pet]
—Is that the bird called Hayang?
—Yep. It's known to be very intelligent. The guild members say it's a divine beast.
—Divine beast? Do the world rankers even have one?
—It's rare. In the last video, it seemed to have some kind of attribute-related ability....
Flap!
Hayang flew.
She approached the group of hundreds of spirits.
The viewers who saw her were terrified.
The video of the first Hokkaido attack team had already been viewed by hundreds of millions of people. So everyone was aware that the Fire Spirit King was not an ordinary S-rank boss.
In such a situation, sending out a pet alone?
It was impossible to know what he was thinking.
That's when it happened.
The Spirit King's head snapped around.
The creature's pupils blazed as it saw Hayang.
As if to mock, it snorted flames from its nostrils and swung its arm. It seemed as if the burning hand would completely incinerate the small divine beast.
That's when it happened.
Whoosh.
Hayang, who had easily escaped the grasp, opened her beak.
Swoosh!
The crimson flames could be seen being absorbed into Hayang's mouth.
—Huh?
—What?
—Why is the Spirit King's flame dimming?
—All the little ones have been recalled?
Just as the viewers were surprised.
The Spirit King was just as terrified.
After all, some insignificant creature was absorbing its power!
—Kuaaa!
The Spirit King let out a scream-like roar and opened its mouth. A compressed stream of lava shot out at high pressure. It was so fast that it would be difficult to dodge even if one saw it coming.
—This is the 7th time I've asked why it's fine after getting hit by lava.
—What am I seeing right now? Is a bird raiding the Spirit King right now?
—What kind of divine beast is that?
—How would I know lol
—Crazy; Cut by the pet Jojwa;
—Is this for real?
It must be real if it's happening.
As expected, Hayang was showing extreme synergy against attribute monsters. Even the Spirit King, who had wiped out all of Japan's first attack team, was now...
'Delicious prey.'
He drew the Shadow Sword.
"Then, I'll start moving too."
He needed to stamp his seal before the others got here. He chugged a Fire Resistance Potion and charged towards the Spirit King, whose flames were now much weaker.
* * *
Kentaro, the guild master of Katana.
He was running so fast that his eyebrows were flapping in the wind.
"Guild master! You're going too fa..."
"Don't you know what's going on? Just follow me!"
Straight ahead.
Kentaro's eyes, as he ran forward, were fixed on the phone in his hand.
'Damn it, damn it!'
Kim Minwoo's live stream.
At first, he had set out with the intention of teaching a lesson to an ignorant fool, but now his purpose had completely changed.
That was because...
—This is how you catch it. Dodge, stab. Easy, right?
The Fire Spirit King was being hunted in real time!
And at an incredible speed!
'How is this even possible!'
Even though the first attack team was just an elite group, there were a lot of them.
Two hundred of them had attacked and failed.
'But he's catching it alone?'
The camera view was from above, as if it was being filmed by a drone, and no matter how much he looked, there were no other Awakened around.
Only the undead summoned by Kim Minwoo and a small bird called Hayang.

It was a sight that Kentaro could not understand, nor did he want to understand.
Of course, the Spirit King had been weakened by that strange bird, but even considering that, it was a monster that he wouldn't dare to try to catch alone.
'Please just hold on!'
Why did the Spirit King look so weak today!
That's how precarious the Spirit King looked.
It was all because of that strange bird.
Stealing its attribute.
As if that wasn't enough, it burrowed into Kim Minwoo's body, and suddenly Kim Minwoo started spewing cold air, which was like the natural enemy of fire.
The Spirit King's crimson body froze instantly whenever the cold blade touched it.
'This can't be. This can't be happening!'
Kentaro cried out.
While the Japanese guilds were still dithering, unable to even gather a few thousand members,
A foreigner had come and was about to single-handedly take down the monster!
It was the worst possible scenario.
'Those rewards and glory, they were all supposed to be mine!'
Many individuals and guilds had gathered for the second attack, but the biggest reward would naturally go to the Katana guild.
Or rather, to Kentaro, the guild master. That was why he was running like a madman.
The fact that Kim Minwoo in the video was unimaginably strong.
How he would resolve the situation when he got there, everything was uncertain, but...
One thing was for sure.
Kentaro's eyes were completely bloodshot with envy, jealousy, and rage.
Perhaps it was because he was running at the fastest speed of his life.
In the distance, he could see Sapporo.
He could see the giant form of the Spirit King.
'I'm almost there! Just a little more...'
—Did you catch it?
Puk.
The jet-black sword pierced deep into the Spirit King's chest. Compared to the giant's body, it was smaller than a dagger, but perhaps it couldn't withstand the accumulated damage, as an eerie sound rang out.
Crack!
The Spirit King's body crumbled, like old dust scattering into powder.
—Oh. An item.
Twinkle!
In the video.
An item was sparkling where the Spirit King had fallen.
* * *
The Spirit King was a strong monster.
Or rather, it was a strong monster.
But, thanks to Hayang, he caught it easily.
[Hayang's 'Fire' attribute has grown into the 'White Flame' attribute!]
[You have hunted the 'Ferocious' Fire Spirit King!]
[Level increased by 13....]
'Wait.'
Ferocious?
That was a very familiar adjective.
Didn't the Abyss Lord he hunted not too long ago have the same adjective?
'Ferocious Abyss Lord.'
A monster that showed far greater power than Leluya knew.
The cause was the injection of Hardronox's venom.
'Could it be...'
Was the appearance of the strengthened Fire Spirit King after the Gate burst also related to that guy?
That's when it happened.
A special message popped up.
● You are the one who has 'opened the horizon' of humanity!
● Recognizing the changes in the world!
● Warning!
● The Spider is observing you!
● The story is beginning to change greatly!
● The mana concentration of 'Earth' is getting denser!
● The probability of higher-level Gates appearing has greatly increased!
● The value of 'Earth Credits' has greatly increased!
● A large amount of Achievement Points is given in return for the greatest contribution to the increase in value!
It was a message related to Achievement Points.
'The Spider is observing?'
Spider = Hardronox.
It was a formula.
In other words, the monster called the Apostle of the Outer God was watching them...
'Is the increase in Earth's mana concentration also because of it?'
He suddenly felt a sense of doubt.
Such a butterfly effect occurred by just observing?
'What is this crazy monster?'
There was nothing he could do about it right now, so he had no choice but to accept it...
That's when it happened.
A message popped up on his smartphone.
—Did something drop? Please loot it!
"Huh?"
He had blocked donations because it would be noisy during the hunt.
No, to be precise, he had drastically increased the minimum donation amount.
To hundreds of millions of won per message.
But it seemed they had stubbornly donated anyway.
"Ah, I'm sorry. I had something to think about. Let me check..."
"I heard you know Sword Saint very well. Is that true?"
Kim Minwoo turned his head at the deep voice coming from behind.
He saw an old man wearing a wide-brimmed hat and a kimono.
With a sharp sword at his waist.
One person immediately came to mind.
Japan's greatest swordsman and an Awakened listed in the Hall of Fame.
And the one who used to be Sword Saint's rival...
"...Sword Demon?"
"You know me?"
"You're famous."
"Did Sword Saint tell you about me?"
"Not really..."
Nakazawa's face immediately fell.
He could roughly guess why.
They called each other rivals.
But that was just Japan's (Nakazawa's) one-sided claim.
1st place and 2nd place.
The gap was much bigger than they thought.
Anyway.
"We are well acquainted. Why do you ask?"
"I will help you."
"With what?"
"A madman will come running soon. No, not one, but thousands. Oh, there they come."
In the distance.
A figure was rushing in like a whirlwind. It was getting bigger and bigger from a tiny dot, so it looked like he was running with his eyebrows flying off.
"The one running now is the Katana guild master. He's very angry. The Japanese government is too. I understand you're trying to do something with the broadcast, but it won't be easy to get the reward. They won't leave you alone. It'll be a hassle."
"You're going to make it easy for me to get it?"
"The title of Sword Demon has that much power."
"What do you want?"
"Sword Saint changed his number. I haven't been able to get in touch with him."
"Is it 010-XXXX-XXXX?"
"Yes. That number."
"He didn't change it."
"...Really? Then why won't he answer?"
"I don't know. Hold on a second."
He called Sword Saint.
Before the dial tone could even ring twice.
—Minwoo?
He got through.
"It works fine."
Nakazawa's face crumpled. freewebnσvel.cѳm
"So what do you want..."
"...Let me talk to him for a second."
It was a very simple wish.
