      TSCU 24 Cover
      by Frederick — Chapter 24 The woman went on at length in response to Kang Hyuk’s not-quite-a-threat. To summarize what she said: Under the terms of the church’s contract with the orcs, they could not simply refrain from tracking him altogether. If a priest other than her had been dispatched, they would have actively cooperated with the orcs in killing Kang Hyuk. But she herself had deliberately slowed the pursuit as much as possible, dragging it out and interfering along the way. “That doesn’t seem…

      TSCU 23 Cover
      by Frederick — Chapter 23 Three hours had passed since they began waiting in front of the ruins. It was longer than expected. Black Hammer lightly tapped the black warhammer that was practically his symbol with one hand. His gaze was fixed on the woman with her hand pressed against the ground. “It’s taking a while.” “Should I whip her?” Black Hammer looked at the subordinate who had answered with a pathetic expression. He had clearly failed to understand, despite Black Hammer repeatedly…

      TSCU 22 Cover
      by Frederick — Chapter 22 Holy Knight Yanik. Aside from the fact that he was guarding the final room of the Temple of Trials and his name, everything about the knight was shrouded in mystery. He’s ridiculously strong. After exchanging blows with him several times, Kang Hyuk could tell for certain. If he calculated the difference between Yanik and himself in terms of levels, there had to be at least a thirty-level gap. This is the perfect opportunity to gauge my current strength. This battle would be…

      TSCU 21 Cover
      by Frederick — Chapter 21 Before he knew it, the darkness that had been blocking all of his senses disappeared, and Kang Hyuk found himself facing the message floating before his eyes. Three abilities had merged into a single ability called Demon Eye, while Mana Drain and Gluttony had transformed into something called the Essence of Greed. Kang Hyuk calmly opened his Status Window. The most noticeable change was that his Mana had increased from 8 to 18. This hadn't…

      TSCU 20 Cover
      by Frederick — Chapter 20 A woman wearing a ragged, worn-out robe had both hands pressed against the ground. She kept her eyes tightly shut and muttered to herself for a long time before slowly getting to her feet. Clink—. The sound of metal striking metal echoed with her movements. It came from the chains bound around her hands and feet. “Did you see it?” Black Hammer, who had been waiting beside her, asked the question. The woman nodded. “Yes.” “Lead the…

      TSCU 19 Cover
      by Frederick — Chapter 19 At first, Kang Hyuk thought he might have seen incorrectly. But the woman cleverly hiding herself where the shadows overlapped was unmistakably Mirian. A woman who would later be known as the Berserker, earning a reputation for her insane skill and talent—and for having a personality that was just a little unhinged. She had died after only one year. Yet even several years later, people still talked about her. But the most important thing right now was this. At this point in…

      TSCU 18 Cover
      by Frederick — Chapter 18 Kang Hyuk sat on the edge of the bed in the inn. He had roughly dumped the corpses of Qasim and his partner, Albert, along a road where monsters were likely to pass frequently. Just in case, he had also carefully erased any traces he might have left behind. ‘The chances of being discovered are extremely low.’ He tossed the dagger in his hand into the air and caught it again as he thought. Qasim was the lowest of the low-ranking members. His disappearance was unlikely to…

      TSCU 17 Cover
      by Frederick — Chapter 17 After calming his pounding heart, Kang Hyuk looked at Qasim with a wary expression and asked, “So?” “No, I just felt sorry for you. You were drinking watered-down beer without saying a word, so I thought I’d say something. Master! Give him a proper glass of beer!” Qasim shouted loudly. The master soon placed a glass of beer down with an displeased expression. Clunk! Just by looking at its color, it was obviously much darker than the watery beer he had been served…

      TSCU 16 Cover
      by Frederick — Chapter 16 “Phew.” He first caught his breath. Before cooling down his body, which had been heated by the intense battle, and going to claim his reward, he looked at the corpse of the giant rat lying on the floor. ‘It really is ridiculously huge.’ If they had fought in an open area, the battle would have been several times more difficult. This passage was far too narrow for its massive body. That was precisely why he had lured it out of its lair in the first place. Kang Hyuk…

      TSCU 15 Cover
      by Frederick — Chapter 15 “Hmm.” He shifted in bed. His chest felt strangely itchy. It was as though a swarm of ants were crawling all over his body. After groaning in discomfort for quite some time, Kang Hyuk suddenly opened his eyes wide. He blinked at the unfamiliar ceiling before realizing that he wasn't at the training center anymore. “Ah…” He was at the inn. It was old, dirty, and the food was unbelievably bad, but it was a familiar inn. Once his mind had cleared somewhat, Kang…
