Artifact Devouring Player

Ch. 63


Chapter 63: Level 100 - (2)

‘This is unbelievable.’

Sanghyun laughed as he looked at the pile of Red Kangaroo corpses that had been wiped out in an instant. The massacre was over in a flash.

When he turned around, he met Lee Sehwa’s gaze. She was giving him a thumbs-up with a satisfied expression.

‘This is the perfect synergy between a magician and a swordsman who truly understand each other’s abilities.’

His level had already reached 92. It seemed to be thanks to the two of them sweeping through the Red Kangaroo herd together.

Lee Sehwa, who had quietly caught up behind Sanghyun, spoke in an elated voice.

“You’re no ordinary player, are you?”

“Am I useful?”

“At this level? Of course, I’m more than satisfied. Who else sets up the battlefield this cleanly?”

Previously, when paired with clumsy teammates, she could barely take down three or four monsters at best.

Yet, even though today was their first meeting, Sanghyun seemed to understand exactly how her skills inflicted damage.

“I know you have stronger skills than Fire Blossom. If you mark the attack point, I’ll drive them there.”

“Like Fireball Impact?”

“Exactly.”

Fireball Impact.

A superior version of Fire Blossom that delivers a concentrated explosion of flames at a single point.

However, its drawback was the considerable casting time. It wasn’t a skill to use recklessly.

“That one requires a really well-planned setup… Ah, I misspoke.”

Lee Sehwa almost spoke out of habit but corrected herself upon realizing that her partner was Sanghyun.

With him, she had no doubt he’d set up another perfect battlefield.

“Here I go!”

Sanghyun charged forward.

『Psychedelic』

『Acceleration』

He used his buff skills generously.

Why wouldn’t he? He had a trump card. With a reset skill at his disposal, using buffs wasn’t a problem.

‘I see it.’

He immediately spotted the predicted impact point that Lee Sehwa was preparing with her Fireball Impact.

A faint red circle on the ground began to shrink from a wide ring into a single point.

Once the circle condensed to a dot, that was when the fireball would strike the ground.

With a cooldown of six hours, it was practically an ultimate move.

“Right here, you bastards!”

Sanghyun shouted, herding the monsters. The ideal targets, of course, were the Red Kangaroos, which gave the best rewards.

Krrrrrk!

A Red Kangaroo hit by the Demon Bash attack was immediately paralyzed, drooling as it stiffened up.

『Knockback Burst』

There was no better skill for this situation than Knockback Burst.

It could push opponents far backward.

Thud!

With a sharp impact sound, the Red Kangaroo affected by knockback was sent flying.

Seeing their kin in such a helpless state, the other Red Kangaroos reacted aggressively.

Krrrrr! Krrrr!

With no other players nearby, they had no hesitation in targeting Sanghyun.

“Come on, you bastards!”

Sanghyun, intoxicated by Psychedelic’s euphoria, lost himself in the chaos, weaving through the Red Kangaroos.

The number of gathered Red Kangaroos had reached seventy, all fixated on Sanghyun, emitting killing intent.

Sharp claws attacked from all directions, but Sanghyun skillfully dodged them.

He didn’t even bother using defensive skills like Defensive, which restricted mobility.

Instead, he used his sword for minimal defense while inflicting wounds on the Red Kangaroos as if mocking them.

Alternating between Acceleration and Full Charge, his greatsword left deep cuts even when merely grazing them.

At the same time.

“What the hell is that…”

Kim Miso, who had climbed a tree for a better view, spotted Sanghyun.

An unbelievable sight unfolded. Sanghyun was completely surrounded by the notoriously violent Red Kangaroos.

The Eden Guild’s slow advance wasn’t due to cowardice.

These aggressive monsters were so vicious that chaotic battles could quickly become dangerous.

The standard strategy was to neutralize them through controlled attacks, minimizing risks.

But Sanghyun had thrown himself into the fray, relying solely on Lee Sehwa in the rear.

It was akin to shoving one’s head into an open crocodile’s mouth. A perfect way to get killed.

If an ordinary player did this, it would be considered a creative form of suicide.

But because it was Sanghyun, Kim Miso thought differently. Did he have a plan?

Then—

“Ah! So that’s it.”

She finally saw the fireball descending from the dark night sky—Lee Sehwa’s Fireball Impact.

At that moment, Kim Miso gasped.

“Did Oppa set this up?”

Over a hundred Red Kangaroos were completely focused on Sanghyun, huddled together.

The fireball was falling right into the center of that mass.

Despite being surrounded, Sanghyun wasn’t overwhelmed; he was threatening the monsters on equal footing.

Some Red Kangaroos were caught in a Rising Airflow, unintentionally somersaulting through the air.

Others were frozen stiff from paralysis and frost effects, while some had collapsed from knockback.

Several had even been instantly killed by Sanghyun’s greatsword strikes to their foreheads.

“Oppa is making a statement to the Player Union? Isn’t this way too eye-catching?”

She was in awe but also uneasy.

Even if they couldn’t recruit Sanghyun, she didn’t want to see him join another organization.

Kuwaaaaaah!

A massive explosion erupted.

A red mushroom cloud rose from the ground, a testament to the destructive power of Fireball Impact.

“So this is the power of synergy…”

Though the grandeur of the explosion was Lee Sehwa’s doing, Kim Miso had seen everything clearly.

This entire setup had been orchestrated by Sanghyun from start to finish, crafted for Lee Sehwa.

It was the work of an expert who knew exactly how to maximize his partner’s firepower.

And the enormous experience points they would share between just the two of them were easy to imagine.

She began to worry seriously. Sanghyun might reach Level 100 soon.

Even though she was growing rapidly with financial backing, Sanghyun’s speed was much greater.

“This is… seriously unfair.”

Unfair.

She, the daughter of a leading conglomerate chairman, wasn’t one to talk, but that was how she felt.

Sanghyun wasn’t just exceptional in solo play—his teamwork with a first-time partner like Lee Sehwa was flawless.

Who wouldn’t be drawn to a player like this?

She was certain—no one could resist his talent.

Some time later.

"It's really a reset."

"That's right. A real reset."

"I didn't believe it would be an unconditional skill reset, but at this point, I have to admit it."

After experiencing the skill reset firsthand, Lee Sehwa could understand why the Eden Guild put so much effort into recruiting Sanghyun.

And beyond that, she could see why the Player Union was also interested in him.

Even journalist Park Jungmin, known for his deep knowledge of player-related news, had written an article about it.
