Inside the dark subway tunnel…

The rose gold light that was as red as blood flowed out in all directions.

Baaaaaang!

The loud noise that sounded as if the entire tunnel would crumble shook the surrounding area.

“Ugh!”

Kim Kang Hoon subconsciously took a few steps back.

His eyes were in pain from the sudden bright light.

He could not hide his shock.

“…Such strength-!”

‘He had such strength?’

He had heard a lot of people talk about Kim Rok Soo’s strength, but it was completely different seeing it in person.

‘He has foresight and a thunderbolt like this-!’

Kim Kang Hoon heard Lee Seung Won, who was on his back, start to speak at that moment.

“That’s not all.”

"What?”

“There’s more.”

“…Ho.”

He could only gasp in shock as he stepped farther back.

It was at that moment.

“Chhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!”

He gasped once more.

As the rose gold light disappeared…

“…I guess it is an unranked monster even when it is split into two!”

The blue headed monster that had curled up its body could be seen.

Bae Puh Rum shouted as well.

“There aren’t any injuries!”

He recalled what Cale had said.

‘This Electric Eel has scales. They’re so strong that most attacks won't even leave a scratch.’

He had also said something else.

‘That is why we need rescue team leader Lee Soo Hyuk.’

Bae Puh Rum looked toward the spot where the rose gold light had disappeared.

In the short opening created when the blue head that was curled up slowly raised its head…

He could see Lee Soo Hyuk running toward that opening.

‘The blue head will curl up and protect itself with its scales when I attack.’

That was their chance.

‘Leader Lee Soo Hyuk will definitely create an opening.’

Kim Rok Soo's voice echoed on his mind.

At that moment…

“How disappointing.”

Lee Soo Hyuk and the blue monster’s eyes met.

Smile.

The corners of Lee Soo Hyuk's lips started to go up.

“I was planning on chopping off your poisonous fangs first, but I guess I'll just have to put that off until later.”

His sword then slashed sideways.

Kim Min Ah started to speak while standing next to Bae Puh Rum.

“There’s no noise.”

The sword was swung.

However, there was no noise at all.

Joo Ho-Shik started to frown.

“…Is he cutting the wind as well?”

There wasn't a black aura like Choi Han.

It wasn’t like Kim Min Ah’s attack that caused a gust of wind or an earthquake due to its strength.

A fancy rose gold light or a shield did not appear as with Cale.

All he did was silently swing his sword sideways.

But Cale could see the drops of sweat gathering on Lee Soo Hyuk’s forehead.

Lee Soo Hyuk gave everything he had to this silent action.

His sword, his attribute, activated its powers stronger than ever before in response to Lee Soo Hyuk giving it his all.

Slash!

These scales that Cale wouldn't have been able to damage even if he used any or all of his current half-powered ancient powers together…

A portion of those scales was slashed.

Slaaaaaash!

The tender skin underneath the damaged scales was cut open and blue blood shot out.

Compared to this large and long body…

This small injury was extremely small.

It was only about half the size of an adult woman’s palm.

The reason that people were able to survive the attack of the first unranked monster in the past…

It had a lot to do with Lee Soo Hyuk's power.

“…Huff.”

Lee Soo Hyuk stumbled and knelt down after creating that opening.

“You worked hard, sir.”

“…You’re speaking respectfully again?”

Cale supported Lee Soo Hyuk from behind.

Lee Soo Hyuk's back was completely drenched in sweat.

At that moment…

“Screeeeeeeeeech!”

The blue monster that had never expected a sword to cause it an injury screamed and raised its body.

Blood dripped down from the cut, but the monster was so angry that it did not care.

They could feel the monster preparing to release its powers in anger.

“…It truly is no joke as you mentioned. I could only cause that small injury while using this much of my strength.”

Lee Soo Hyuk scoffed before using his sword as support to stand up.

He had won most fights in the end until now.

But he felt something while looking at this unranked monster.

‘I wouldn't have been able to defeat this monster if I wasn’t prepared.’
