Soo Hyuk felt the ground shake along with a loud boom . Then a system message appeared .
[Warning!]
[Twin Headed Troll, Arger has appeared . ]
It was the appearance of a boss monster .
‘Ah, the boss has already respawned . ’
Soo Hyuk thought of the conversation between two men 10 days ago as he read the messages .
‘The boss respawns today . ’
The two men had said that the respawn time for Arger, the Twin Headed Troll, was 10 days . It seemed like Soo Hyuk managed to meet Arger again on the day of its revival .
‘What should I do? They could already be chasing this boss . ’
The two men knew about the respawn time of Arger, so they could be approaching this place right now . No, they could already be here . What if he attracted unnecessary resentment because he hunted the boss?
‘Wait . ’
Soo Hyuk frowned as he thought .
‘The boss monster doesn’t belong to them in the first place, so why am I mulling over this?’
Soo Hyuk realised that he didn’t need to brood over this issue anymore . Twin Headed Troll Argor was a boss in Pangea . It didn’t belong to them in any way, so they couldn’t say anything about it .
‘I’m sure there aren’t that many stoneheads . ’
Of course, there was the possibility of the two men not showing the ‘proper’ manners inside Pangea, but it couldn’t be as bad as Adilo .
After finalising his thoughts,Soo Hyuk headed in the direction of the boom earlier . Not long after, he could see Arger advancing in his direction through the thick tree branches .
“Firestorm . ”
Soo Hyuk cast Firestorm while staring at the nearing Arger . 5 seconds after, a tornado of flames appeared around Arger .
-Uuaaaa!
-Uuuaaaa!
Arger’s two heads roared in pain with a painful expression .
“Inferno, Magic Missile, Firebolt, Fireball . ”
Soo Hyuk quickly cast his spells one after another before Arger could recover . He wanted to defeat Arger quickly .
“Flame Dance . ”
When he cast Flame Dance, the left head slackened while closing its eyes . The right head followed not long after .
[Twin Headed Troll, Arger, has been defeated . ]
‘It’s a lot faster than before . My stats aren’t that much higher either . ’
The stats of Soo Hyuk 10 days ago and the current Soo Hyuk didn’t have a huge difference . His wisdom had only risen by a little bit, but the boss hunt had become shorter compared to 10 days ago .
‘Maybe it’s because of the skill proficiency?’
Although his stats weren’t that different, most of his spells had risen to the intermediate proficiency from beginner . That meant his skills were stronger than before .
Soo Hyuk checked the drop window .
-Twin Headed Troll’s Hide
-Twin Headed Troll’s Head
-Twin Headed Troll’s Tendon
-Twin Headed Troll’s Blood
‘Huh, it dropped again?’
Soo Hyuk tilted his head after he checked the drop window .
‘Does the drop rate increase for boss monsters?’
The rare troll’s blood appeared again . Of course, he wasn’t complaining . Soo Hyuk pressed OK and collected the drops from Arger .
“Ah, fuck!”
“What! How?!”
At that moment, Soo Hyuk heard two people’s voices nearing him . Soo Hyuk first hid behind a thick tree and checked the source of the voice .
“Shit, it was hunted again!”
“This, how…”
“This bastard moves so fast . ”
They were the two men from 10 days ago .
“Hah, what guild did this? It’s obvious that it’s one of those top guilds . ”
“Top guilds don’t grow from trees you know . ”
“Shut up . ”
“Nmm…”
Soo Hyuk cast Archmage’s Subspace like before . He had no need to keep hiding .
[Warping to ‘Archmage’s Subspace’ . ]
The distorted space was repaired . After arriving at the subspace, Soo Hyuk stared at the nine doors . He then checked his inventory while walking towards the tunnel on the right .
‘I only have to buy 80 more . ’
There were 420 troll’s blood in his inventory . If he collected 80 more, then he would be able to complete the skill quest .
‘I’ll just buy the rest . ’
Soo Hyuk decided to buy the rest of the blood and closed his inventory .
‘Ah, I forgot . ’
Soo Hyuk then opened his friends window .
‘Good, he’s online . ’
After checking Doran’s status, Soo Hyuk sent a message to him .
– Doran: Wow, thank you for the information!
– Soo Hyuk: You’re welcome~
After thanking Soo Hyuk, Doran faced Pavi, who was resting next to him and said,
“Hey, jackpot . ”
“What’s a jackpot?”
“A title that gives 100 stamina!”
“…What?”
Pavi almost doubted his ears .
“100 stamina?”
A title that gives 100 stamina? Pavi couldn’t believe it . It was plausible if it was an item, but since it was a title, he couldn’t believe it .
“Bullshit…is it true?”
Of course, Doran had already expected Pavi’s reaction .
“What kind of title gives 100 stamina . ”
“It’s true! Someone told me just now . ”
Pavi stared at Doran with suspicion in response to his words .
“…From who?”
“Yeon Jung-nim’s friend!”
“Ah, the person you met hunting orcs?”
“Yep, he hunted 10,000 trolls just now and gained the title . ”
Pavi frowned frowned as he listened to Doran .
“10,000?”
“Yeah! Isn’t it unbelievable? I’m going to hunt trolls whenever I’m free from now on . If it’s 100 stamina…”
Doran chuckled brightly after trailing off .
“Oh, that’s right . ”
Doran once again became serious and asked Pavi .
“What’s the situation with the Desolate guild?”
“About Yeon Jung-nim?”
“Mmm, I think it turned out well since he hasn’t contacted us …”
Yeon Jung had promised them that he would contact them if he needed help . Doran too didn’t have a good relationship with the Desolate guild, but since he hadn’t contacted them, it seemed like it was resolved without significant losses .
“It ended with that Kefan leaving . ”
“Huh? What about that bastard Commander? It all started with that guy PKing . ”
“Commander is the right-hand man of the Nebula faction . Would Nebula let go of him so easily? He drew the line at Kefan . ”
The cause of the situation was a user called Commander . But Commander was the right-hand man of one of the five factions in Desolate, the Nebula faction . Instead of Commander, Kefan was the one who took the blame .
“What about Kefan? That guy’s personality is so rotten . Did he really leave quietly?”
Doran asked . Kefan was famous for his irritable personality and Doran knew that it wasn’t just rumours . Did Kefan, who could be called the symbol of contentiousness, really leave without a fight?
“I don’t know . Something must’ve happened behind the scenes . ”
Pavi replied to Doran’s question . Although he wasn’t certain, there was a high chance that something had happened behind the scenes .
“Anyway, apparently there’s going to be a new guild in Hedlin . ”
“The coastal city?”
“Yep . ”

pαndα,noνɐ1,сoМ “Have a good day, sir!”
“Thank you! I’ll come again . ”
Soo Hyuk bid farewell to Karl and left the Tower of Earth . Then he opened his quest window as he headed towards the library .
[Special Quest – Troll’s Regeneration]
Hunt trolls and drain their blood!
[Trolls : 4000 / 4000 ]
[Troll’s Blood : 500 / 500 ]
[Quest Reward: Skill – Troll Blood]
After selling the drops Soo Hyuk had bought the last 80 troll’s blood . As a result, he had fulfilled all the conditions to complete the quest .
‘What kind of skill will it be?’
The quest reward was skill – Troll Blood .
‘Is it a healing skill?’
He was looking forward to the new skill . Soo Hyuk press ‘COMPLETE’ with an excited expression .
[Special Quest – Troll’s Regeneration has been completed . ]
[Skill – Troll Blood has been obtained . ]
The usual system message appeared as Soo Hyuk quickly opened his skill window . Then he checked the ‘Troll Blood’ skill .
“…Hmm?”
Soo Hyuk suddenly stopped his steps when he checked the new skill . His face was full of disbelief as he stared at his skill window .
‘Did I see wrong?’
Soo Hyuk rubbed his eyes and double-checked the skill again .
‘No, I didn’t…’
[<Passive>Troll Blood]
Special Effects:
1 . Health recovery rate 200%
2 . Increases total amount of health by 100%
‘100% extra health…’
Soo Hyuk was in disbelief because of the second effect of the skill . Increase by 100%? Instead of increasing his health by hundreds, his health had doubled .
‘It’s also a passive . ’
What made it truly fraudulent was the fact that it was a passive skill . In Pangea, there were lots of buffs that increased your total health for a fixed duration . But most of them were actives, not passives .
His skill ‘Troll Blood’ was a passive though, and one that doubled his health at that .
‘What is this cheat skill…’
It even increased his recovery rate by 200%!
Soo Hyuk felt similar to when he had first checked his Archmage passive . A scam . Soo Hyuk closed his fraudulent skill description and opened his character window . He had to check if it was real or not .
Occupation: Archmage’s Descendant
Level: 102 Experience: 62%
Health: 56200 Mana: 40800
Satiation: 58%
Strength: 40 (+10)
Agility: 35 (+16)
Stamina: 1108 [554 (+10)]
Wisdom: 2040 (+10)
“Crazy . ”
After checking his new stats, Soo Hyuk automatically exclaimed with admiration . The difference before and after ‘Troll Blood’ was huge .
‘It went over 50,000?’
His original twenty-thousand health had risen to over fifty thousand .
‘I have more health than mana now…’
Soo Hyuk’s mana was extremely high due to his unbelievable wisdom, but his healthpool had surpassed the amount of mana he had .
‘With this much…’
He thought as he stared at his enormous health .
‘Shouldn’t I be able to open the door?’
The Door of Wind that he had put off for later . Wouldn’t it be possible now with his health?
‘No . This problem can’t be solved with just more health . ’
But after remembering his fight with the Wind Golem, Soo Hyuk realised that more health wouldn’t be enough to beat its speed . Rather than health, he needed more defence and evasion .
After settling his thought, Soo Hyuk closed his character window and continued heading to the library again .
