These Lunatics are Obsessed With Me

Chapter 108

Swoosh!

The shimmering silver chain shot straight toward Kang Soo-hyun. However, it was intercepted by something around Kang Soo-hyun, causing it to retreat.

It's a passive skill!

Since Kang Soo-hyun received my auxiliary skill, his passive abilities have also been enhanced. I let out a small sigh of relief.

“Haa…”

“What? Did that bastard get your skill too?”

"In the meantime, you pulled another sneaky trick." The villain muttered this as he looked at me. I frowned as I met his gaze.

“Who are you?”

"Lee Geun-ho."

“You talk too much.”

The chain tightened around my body even more. This lunatic seemed even more delighted when a pained groan escaped me.

“Damn it…!”

Even with my auxiliary skill, is a B-ranked hunter really this strong? This guy didn’t even budge at the pincer attack from Kang Soo-hyun and Yong-sik.

He skillfully manoeuvred his chains as if they were his hands and feet, blocking all the attacks. Moreover, Kang Soo-hyun’s skill didn’t affect him, probably due to his high mental strength stat.

“You bastard… You lied about your rank and entered the dungeon, didn’t you?”

“Haha.”

It must have been a lie to claim he was a B-ranked hunter. If it were Laufey’s Guild, they would have either forged his hunter license or killed the real hunter named Lee Geun-ho to steal his identity, which is far more believable.

A hunter’s license issued by the Association is not easy to forge, which also explains why he used illegal items to alter his appearance.

"But it's true that I am an all-rounder."

“I’ll see for myself, you motherfucker!”

"Hmm."

The villain merely smirked at my swearing. It's true that he’s an all-rounder; he only lied about his rank. Now he’s an all-rounder with enhanced stats due to my auxiliary skill. Cold sweat ran down my back. It felt like I had raised a tiger with my own hands.

“I’m in a good mood for now, so I’ll let it slide.”

“Ugh…!”

“Ah, fuck.”

The villain frowned at the continued attacks, and an increasingly sinister aura emanated from him. The situation was dire. None of the combatants in the raid team could stop the villain; they were only focused on blocking his attacks.

Even with Kang Soo-hyun’s stats boosted by my auxiliary skill, it was still not enough to stop him. We have to find a way to stall for time…

“I can see exactly what you're thinking.”

“…!”

"Are you waiting for Kang Yoo-hyun to come?"

“Kugh…”

The sound of the chain moving was unsettling. The chain that had climbed up my body wrapped around my neck, making it difficult to breathe.

"Should we start now?"

“What… is….”

“Huhu.”

The villain snapped his fingers. The surroundings fell silent instantly. What is this? What did he do? Was there a hunter with such a skill in the novel? Among the Laufey Guild members, aside from Baek Si-hoo, who else could possess such power? I looked at the villain in dismay.

“Are you… Evan?”

“What?”

“Evan Lee…?”

“…”

The guildmaster of the Laufey Guild, one of Raisu's henchmen. Why am I only realising this now? He’s the only villain who’s an all-rounder. Evan Lee. If Baek Si-hoo is a quiet madman, Evan is just plain crazy—that’s how he was described in the novel.

However, Evan did not appear in the parts I read. He was only described as a cruel villain surrounded by rumours. I vaguely recalled reading about his unique setting as an all-rounder.

Since I wasn’t very interested in villains, I had overlooked the details. Recognizing Evan now was counterproductive. His eyebrows raised upward in response.

“How do you know my name?”

“Kugh.”

“Who are you?”

The chain tightening around my neck grew even tighter. My vision flashed white. And at that moment, a massive explosion erupted in the middle of the raid team.

Boom!

“Ughh!”

“Wh-what’s happening?”

The raid team was in chaos. Among the panicked people reacting to the sudden explosion, someone clutched their head and let out a pained groan.

“Keuuu…”

‘Seo Ha-joon?’

Seo Ha-joon, the vice-master of the Tyr Guild, was shaking his head and drooling. Then another loud explosion erupted around him.

Boom! Boomm!

"Avoid it!"

“Damn it, protect the healers!”

“Support team, fall back!”

Since Seo Ha-joon was in poor condition and stationed near the support team, the damage from his explosions primarily affected them. I widened my eyes at the distant explosion.

‘Hunter Guseul…!’

There was Guseul, a young healer there.

The support team was relatively safe due to their distance, despite the threats from the Great Centipede and Evan.

Seo Ha-joon, who suddenly went berserk, was clearly not in his right mind. He must have started acting strangely from the moment I fell into the hole, or even before that. I turned my head and glared at Evan, who was laughing.

“You… You bastard!”

“Haha!”

Seo Ha-joon's animosity toward me was likely genuine. However, that doesn’t mean he wanted to wipe out the entire team. It wasn’t his intention to go on a rampage like this. The villain must have placed a skill on Seo Ha-joon from the beginning.

The raid team members who were trying to save me had no choice but to stop Seo Ha-joon. My auxiliary skill was useful, but they couldn’t abandon so many members of the support team just to rescue me. I understood that well.

“Hyung…!”

“You go stop Seo Ha-joon too!”

“But…”

I had no choice but to tell Kang Soo-hyun the same thing, and there was no time for a conversation.

“Should we go now?”

“Ugh…”

“Don’t struggle. You should be able to use your auxiliary skill just fine, even without your arms and legs, right?”

“…”

This time, the chain constricted around my arms and legs simultaneously.

Perhaps because Baek Si-hoo had threatened to cut off my limbs one by one so many times, I wasn’t scared. On the contrary, I thought, ‘Is this happening again?’ I was simply dragged away like that.

“Kyaaa!”

‘Yong… sik…’

I could faintly hear Yong-sik crying and the sound of something exploding in the distance. Then, I lost consciousness as I was strangled.

[The Boss Monster of Muspelheim-S207, ‘Sandworm King,’ has been defeated.]

[The first player to clear Muspelheim-S207 will be awarded the title of "Conqueror of the Realm of Fire (L).]

[The connection to Muspelheim-S207 will be terminated soon.]

A calm system voice resonated throughout the area. Simultaneously, the massive corpse of the Sandworm King disappeared, and a blue portal opened nearby.

“Phew, it’s finally over.”

Sung Yoo-bin spoke with a weary voice. Despite receiving the auxiliary skill, the Sandworm King, an SS-grade boss monster, was still a tough opponent for her as an S-rank hunter.

The boss monster in the Sæ dungeon wasn’t as challenging as this, so she thought the Sandworm King might be a boss monster with a higher level of ability.

“Should we wait for the raid team to come here?”

“…”

“Hunter Kang Yoo-hyun?”

Sung Yoo-bin looked at Kang Yoo-hyun strangely as he turned his head without answering. Kang Yoo-hyun's face was contorted unpleasantly.

“Ppii! Ppiiik!”

“Oh…”

The giant dragon that had fought with them snorted. Sung Yoo-bin was momentarily bewildered as she stared at the red-scaled dragon. It looked more like an oversized lizard than a dragon. The dragon that had made a dramatic entrance with Han Yi-jin didn’t seem like an ordinary monster.

“Are you… a summoned creature too?”

“Ppik!”

“Belonging to Hunter Han Yi-jin?”

“Ppiik!”

Sung Yoo-bin was amazed as she watched Yong-sun cry loudly, as if in affirmation. She couldn’t believe he had tamed not just one but two rare dragon summons. As expected of Han Yi-jin.

“I think we should head over to the raid team.”

“Yes?”

Sung Yoo-bin tilted her head at Kang Yoo-hyun’s low voice. With the portal already open on their side, they could simply wait for the raid team to arrive. There was no need to go looking for them. However, Sung Yoo-bin's face hardened at Kang Yoo-hyun's next words.

“Han Yi-jin keeps moving around.”

“Hunter Han Yi-jin…?”

“Yes.”

Kang Yoo-hyun nodded and immediately turned around. Sung Yoo-bin also tried to follow him.

“Hunter Sung Yoo-bin, please stay here.”

“Why…?”

“Who will guard the portal?”

“…”

Sung Yoo-bin glanced nervously at the portal opening behind them. The blue-lit portal would soon close, and if they didn’t use it within the time limit, they’d be trapped inside the dungeon. Being stuck inside the dungeon after clearing it would be a stroke of bad luck.

Those who got stuck inside the dungeon could never escape, as they couldn’t be found in a reset dungeon.

Moreover, Sung Yoo-bin recalled that the raid team’s situation seemed unusual. She couldn't tell what trouble Seo Ha-joon might have caused for the raid team.

Sung Yoo-bin decided it was better to follow Kang Yoo-hyun’s suggestion and stay behind to guard the portal while he went to assist the raid team.

"Alright, be careful."

"I will."

Kang Yoo-hyun responded curtly and immediately rushed ahead. Sung Yoo-bin stood in front of the portal with the red dragon summon and watched him leave.

‘I hope nothing happens…’

Sung Yoo-bin felt uneasy for some reason. She frowned as she thought of someone.
