Novel Bin Chapter 114: Episode 114
Chapter 114: Episode 114
Both Ho Sung Lee and Bowl began to unleash all of their magic power in order to eat the kill.
The world hunters, who were nearly finished knocking down the Hydra’s stamina, remembered their place.
The experience points and items were all reserved for monopolization.
And in front of that reality, they couldn’t help but feel empty.
Now that they were almost done killing the monster, the rewards were to be reaped by someone else.
Since the law of the jungle dominated the hunter world, they had no choice but to step back.
***
The American hunter master, Ethan, showed a shocked look on his face.
‘What is that skeleton entity anyway...?’
It wasn’t just Ethan but the other world hunters wondered as well.
Meanwhile, Bowl was busy pouring out all his magic damage on the Hydra.
No matter how damaged the Hydra was, the way his scales ripped apart, and how his blood sprayed everywhere was still surprising.
It was a magical attack that not even the world hunters were capable of.
Since the skeleton entity was small in size, they thought he was for the use of a minor role, but Bowl’s attack power was chillingly strong.
Everyone looked at Bowl with eyes of shock and admiration.
On the other hand, Ho Sung Lee was getting close to no attention.
“Damn it! Why isn’t my sword working?”
Ho Sung Lee swung his Death Knight Sword around, but it wouldn’t even make a dent on the Hydra.
He thought the Death Knight Sword could activate a Hell Fire that would make significant damage and reap the kill, but the Hell Fire wasn’t being activated.
And in the end...
“This is the dragon that was asleep under the power of black zinc. Wake up and unleash your range.”
Following the casting, dark smoke arose through Bowl’s fingers.
And the large magic force of dark magic drifted toward the Hydra.
The world hunters nearby all stared at the sight with dropped jaws.
The smoke showed off movements that resembled a hurricane and flew toward the Hydra.
The heavy magical power of Bowl’s dark magic killed the Hydra.
Pow, pow, pow, pow!
Bowl then snickered, and Ho Sung Lee plopped onto his knees while dripping in sweat.

“They say the bear does all the tricks and someone else makes the money.”
“This is so unfair.”
“Damn it. They took all the experience points and items.”
“They’re going to keep doing this on the other floors as well.”
Although they knew this would happen, seeing them steal the experience points and items right in front of them made the hunters stare at Ho Sung Lee and Bowl with rage.
They wouldn’t have been as jealous if Min Sung Kang took the kill.
However, seeing the who-knows-whats leaching off of Min Sung Kang made their blood boil.
While the hunters glared at them, Ho Sung Lee and Bowl continued to fight.
“Hey, the next kill is mine. Please.”
“No. Why should I give it to you?”
“You’re so petty. Then I’ll never eat a kill. You do so much damage.”
“You have Berserker. Stab yourself in the stomach.”
Ho Sung Lee looked at Bowl with fiery eyes.
“Are you serious?”
“Yeah.”
“You’re like a little kid.”
“But you’re the one begging me for kills.”
“Ugh, seriously. What do I do with this tiny thing?”
Bowl snickered and ran over to his master, Min Sung.
Ho Sung Lee glared at Bowl and then later realized that the hunters had been staring at him.
“Ahem...”
Ho Sung Lee coughed.
‘Damn it...’
He picked up the items of the killed Hydra with an uncomfortable feeling.
***
“But aren’t those American hunters weird?”
“Yeah, I know. It feels like they’re suddenly stronger.”
“They seem to give off more Aura.”
“It feels like they suddenly got so much stronger.”
The other hunters’ eyes turned from Ho Sung Lee and Bowl to the American hunters.
“Maybe the American hunters had been hiding their strength this whole time.”
“But they were so weak when we first came to the tower.”
“Hm, they said we came to the tower trusting that Korean hunter, Min Sung Kang, but the American hunters are being suspicious.”
The hunters’ thoughts spread to the commanders of the other countries as well.
However, without any proof, it was difficult for them to ask them if they were hiding anything.
Not long afterward.
On their way through to the 3rd floor, they ran into another monster.
The legend, Kentauros.
He had the upper body of a human but the four legs of a horse.
Half human, half horse.
The monster was holding a shiny shield, and his posture just radiated with strength.
But since the world hunters had already fought a monster on the 1st floor, they weren’t scared of the Kentauros.
It was a monster that wasn’t a devil.
There was no reason to be afraid.
So even though the hunters couldn’t eat the kill, they did their best to hurt the monster in order to get any damage experience points they could get.
***
Just like the Hydra, they were able to defeat the Kentauros without any casualties.
Bowl ate the kill just like last time, and Ho Sung Lee pulled his hair out while looking forward to the next opportunity.
And that opportunity came up before they could even get up to the 3rd floor.
And monsters continued to pop up after that.
Since the monsters didn’t appear all at once, the world hunters were able to cover them without Min Sung needing to step up.
After the monsters were caught, the items all went to Min Sung Kang.
As a result, once they got to the 8th floor, Ho Sung Lee and Min Sung’s item windows were about to get full.
Ho Sung Lee, who did his beat to activate the Hell Fire of his Death Knight Sword but got barely 1 out of 5 damage, approached Min Sung with a tired face.
“I can’t pick up any more items because my window is full. What do I do?”
Min Sung looked over at the hunters as if the solution was easy.
“Just sell them.”
In response, Ho Sung Lee’s eyes shook with shock.
“To those world hunters?”
“Yeah. Just auction them off.”
“Oh... I guess I could do that. But...”
Ho Sung Lee looked around him.
They were already angry about monopolizing the items, so how angry would they be if he tried to sell them?
Ho Sung Lee clicked his tongue.
“How much should I sell them for?”
“Decide that on your own,” Min Sung carelessly remarked.
“Okay.”
While Min Sung and Ho Sung Lee talked about selling the items, the world hunters looked at Min Sung and Ho Sung Lee who weren’t walking toward the 9th floor.
Min Sung sat on the floor against the wall and took out a plastic bag from his item window.
Inside the bag was a sandwich and milk from a convenience store.
***
The world hunters were even more confused than before.
Despite the stares they were getting, Min Sung took out his sandwich without minding them.
Since it was from a convenience store, it was a small one.
The bread was thin, and what was in between was a small amount.
‘How can they even call this a sandwich?’
Inside the bread were a tomato, one cheese, and one ham along with a little bit of lettuce.
That was all.
So he didn’t have high hopes for it.
‘Let’s give it a try.’
Without much expectation, Min Sung took a bite of the sandwich.
But as soon as he took a bite, his eyes jolted wide open, wondering if all sandwiches in Korean convenience stores were this delicious.
Min Sung was in awe.
The first flavor he experienced was saltiness.
It wasn’t salty in a bad way, but in a way that stimulated his brain.
The sweetness of the cheese and sauce, the refreshing crispness of the lettuce, and the saltiness of the ham added on top.
Although there wasn’t much inside the sandwich, the combination of flavors was phenomenal.
But of course, it was evident that it was instant food.
However, it couldn’t be ignored that it was delicious.
‘They did a good job.’
He took another bite.
The bread was a little hard, and the second time around, the sweet flavor of instant food spread throughout his mouth.
The sweet and soft contents of the sandwich entranced him.
Min Sung drank his milk.
Gulp, gulp!
The milk helped to cleanse his dry mouth.
Without the milk, the sandwich wouldn’t have been as good.
As soon as he drank the milk, Min Sung made up his mind.
There was no better combination than a sandwich and milk.
While Min Sung ate his sandwich in awe, the American hunter master, Ethan, approached.
***
Ho Sung Lee stood in front of Ethan.
In response, Ethan looked at Ho Sung Lee with annoyed eyes.
But Ho Sung Lee didn’t let this get to him and stared right back.
“If you want to talk, talk to me.”
Just as Min Sung ordered, he faced him as his stand-in.
At that moment, his chest puffed up.
He couldn’t believe that he was standing in front of the American hunter master.
Ho Sung Lee maintained his stance and waited for Ethan’s response.
