Chapter 289: Going Forward 1
The next wave had four twin-headed ogres, and when Junhyuk saw them, he stepped forward.
“I’ll let them hit me first.”
“Are you going to be OK?”
“I’ll be fine.”
Without any worry, he launched himself forward, and the twin-headed ogres swung their tree trunks at him. Ordinarily, he would’ve dodged, but he threw himself at one of the attacks.
Boom!
Junhyuk bounced away, rolling on the ground. Then, he got up and checked to see how much of his health had been taken off.
Junhyuk had lost two hundred health. That was definitely the attack of a B-ranked monster. With thirty defense, which was something a minion could only dream of having, he was still significantly damaged.
An attack like that could also kill a novice in a single hit.
When Junhyuk got up, he said, “Step back.”
Eunseo should not be there. With her defense, she wouldn’t be able to withstand a hit like that. After taking the hit, he put his equipment back on and used the Spatial Slash. Half of the ogres running toward him died.
Sarang, who was standing next to him, started casting her magic. After taking care of the twin-headed ogres, he turned to Sarang and said, “Sarang, you heal me.”
“OK.”
It would be good for Sarang to exercise her healing power. While getting healed, Junhyuk looked at Eunseo and said, “Eunseo, you won’t be able to withstand a hit with your defense. There are only a few twin-headed ogres now, but their numbers will increase, and I won’t be able to help you.”
In fact, Eunseo agreed. With the power she had, she shouldn’t be there.
Junhyuk looked at her and said calmly, “I’ll take you back.”
“I’ll wait for you there.”
Junhyuk grabbed her hand and said, “Exit.” They exited and he added, “When we are done training, we’ll head here.”
After reentering the facility, Junhyuk stood next to Sarang.
“Eunseo can’t be here, at least not yet.”
“Right.” Sarang touched her chin and said, “It’s very difficult for a novice to get items. Eunseo only has her counterattack as her power. If she trusts that counterattack too much, she could be killed.”
Junhyuk nodded heavily. Even if he wanted to save her, he would not be able to help her.
Sarang asked, “Big brother, Eunseo knows a lot of people, right?”
“Right.”
“And she owns a lot of antiques, right?”
“Right.”
“How about giving her the detector?”
“What?”
Junhyuk turned to her, and she smiled and continued, “You are too busy training, so you don’t have the time to look for items. Eunseo can’t get new items in the Dimensional Battlefield, so how about letting her get new items on Earth.”
He nodded in agreement. He had to go out of his way to find antiques that would work as items, but Eunseo was different. She could already have some at her house, or find some through her friends. She would be able to get items to use at the Dimensional Battlefield, which would help her get much stronger.
“That’s a good idea,” he said and caressed Sarang’s head.
“Is that because of the runestones?”
“What do you mean?”
Sarang tapped his chest lightly and said, “The next ones are coming.”
The dimensional tear appeared again and ogres walked out of it.
“Should I use my power this time?”
“Sure.”
Sarang’s eyes beamed, and she raised her orb, heading into battle.
Eunseo looked at the clock and saw that it was already past ten, and she was too worried to sit still on her chair.
“They’ll be here soon.”
Junhyuk’s health was shocking. Not even a twin-headed ogre had been able to kill him.
“What should I do?”
She had to activate another power and become an expert, otherwise she wouldn’t be of any help. Eunseo was feeling guilty, but when she thought of the twin-headed ogre, she lost her confidence.
She was holding her forehead with her hand when she felt something, and when she raised her head, she saw Junhyuk and Sarang. He was covered in blood.
“Sorry. Can I shower first?”
“The bathroom is over there.”
Junhyuk looked at Sarang and said, “You go first.”
“I’ll be a while.”
“It doesn’t matter. Go ahead.”
“Then, I’ll be going.”
Junhyuk watched her go into the bathroom and bowed slightly toward Eunseo.
“I forgot I’d return covered in blood.”
“On that note, are you OK?”
“I’m fine.”
Eunseo brought him a towel, but Junhyuk shook his head and said, “When Sarang comes out, I’ll teleport into the bathroom and shower, so I don’t need to wipe the blood off right now.”
Eunseo sat on the sofa and looked at him.
“Sorry. I’m not much help.”
“I want to tell you something.”
“What?”
“After Sarang comes out, and I shower, we’ll talk,” he said.
Eunseo nodded, and Sarang walked out of the bathroom with a towel wrapped around her head.
“I went fast.”
“Thanks.”
Junhyuk teleported, and once inside the bathroom, he took a cold shower, making sure that all of the blood had been washed off. Once he finished, he took some clothes out of the Spatial Bag and put them on.
Eunseo and Sarang were talking to each other, and he was glad that the two had become close. Junhyuk took a seat, and the two looked at him.
“I haven’t told you yet, but you can find Dimensional Battlefield items on Earth.”
He had told her many things about the Dimensional Battlefield, but not everything. As Eunseo heard that, her eyes widened.
Then, Junhyuk showed her the detector and said, “This thing can detect Dimensional Battlefield items within a ten-meter radius, and once you get within a one-meter radius of that item, it’ll shine red.”
Eunseo’s eyes beams. She was of no help now, but with that machine, she could find items that would eventually enable her to help.
Junhyuk continued calmly, “I found an item at an antique shop and a bracelet made out of a tree struck by lightning.”
“Are you saying they are hard to find?”
“Yes. There’s no way to be sure what item will be usable on the battlefield, but I’m guessing chances are better with really old items.”
“Old items… Do you mean artefacts?”
“That’s my guess. They are usually of historical importance or far too expensive, so we can’t get them.”
Eunseo nodded heavily, and he handed her the detector.
“I want you to have it and look for items.”
Eunseo was visibly a little nervous, so Sarang said, “You probably know a lot of people, so you’ll be able to find them. You’ll have an easier time than us trying to look for items.”
Eunseo nodded. She knew more people than the other two and she had enough money to purchase things.
“If you need money, let us know. We’ll pay our share.”
“I already have enough money.”
Junhyuk smiled at her answer. She probably had enough money, but even Eunseo would have a spending limit.
Still, he didn’t press on. If she ever needed something, she would ask him for it.
“Are you going to look for items?”
Eunseo was holding the detector nervously in her hands and asked, “After I find an item, how do I check what it does?”
“You can only get that information at the Dimensional Battlefield. When you find anything, let us know first, and we’ll share them. We’ll pay for our shares.”
“I’ll pay for the items. I can’t earn gold, so even if it’s only on Earth, I want to pay for them. I’m guessing you can only buy the detector with gold.”
Junhyuk smiled bitterly and said, “To be honest, because of the training facility, I’m earning an enormous amount of money. I’m getting cadavers and stones.” He turned to Sarang and added, “I earned a lot this time.”
Sarang nodded.
“He got ten mana stones and twelve bloodstones. With those types of spoils, you don’t have to worry about money.”
Eunseo couldn’t keep her mouth shut.
“You got $220 million for two hours of work?”
He nodded.
“I can earn that much money twice a day. Sarang can only train in the evenings, so I plan to give her half of what we earn each evening.” He added, “We’ll earn more by selling the bodies as well, so when you get new items, we should divide the cost.”
“That’s a good idea.”
If he earned $100 million a day, his assets would surpass Eunseo’s eventually.
Junhyuk continued, “When you are able to fight with us, we’ll divide what we earn between us all.”
Eunseo smiled.
“I am getting fired up. I’ll certainly get more items.”
Junhyuk smiled back.
“I have one more favor to ask of you.”
“Please, speak.”
“It’s about novices,” he said, and Eunseo and Sarang looked at him. So, he shared his thoughts with them. “I know countries are gathering novices, but if possible, I want to recruit them as well.”
“Novices?”
“Yes, I have enough money to do it.”
Eunseo pondered the idea and said, “My eldest brother is recruiting them, so it won’t be easy to meet novices secretly.”
Junhyuk waved her remark away.
“Don’t worry about it then. It’ll be good if it happens, but it’ll be bad if other people find out we are doing it.”
“I’ll be cautious when I look for them.”
Eunseo wanted to help badly, and Junhyuk smiled with satisfaction. Then, he turned to Sarang.
“It’s late. I’ll take you home.”
“I can take her home.”
“Big sister, are you trying to interfere with our date?” Eunseo was surprised, but Sarang laughed brightly and said, “I am joking. Big sister, take me home.”
After hearing that, Junhyuk sighed and said, “Then, let us all go.”
