The 100th Regression of the Max-Level Player

Chapter 163: Conclusion Of Round 10 (1)

“Oracle?”

“What are you talking about?”

Confused by the angel’s question, the players looked perplexed.

They had no idea what the question meant, and it was their first time hearing about the possibility of receiving an oracle.

[Ahem. Never mind then. Forget I asked.]

Although the angel retracted the question as if it was asked in vain, Ryu Min was certain about something after seeing its reaction.

‘It seems they also don’t know who killed Remiel.’

Or rather, they might be thinking that Remiel is missing, not dead.

After all, no bodies of Remiel or any other angels were found.

‘But they must know it was the work of a player.’

Sending distress signals and mobilizing several angels must have at least spread the word that a player had attacked one of them.

They just don’t know who exactly, and since the combat angels were deployed at the Altar, that’s why she asked.

‘To ask so directly… Did they think the culprit would just raise their hand and confess?’

It was a foolish question, but the angel probably had its suspicions.

To confront a combat angel, the player must possess significant power.

And the most likely suspect was none other than Black Scythe.

Sure enough.

The angel’s gaze, flickering towards this direction, was palpable.

Too afraid to look outright.

‘Well, a player who slaughters angels must be frightening.’

They always belittle them as mere bugs, but these were the lowest of the low, ninth-rank angels.

Minus the ability of Sishal, they’re as fragile as humans.

The angels knew this too, hence they didn’t descend from the heavens and maintained their distance.

Because deep down, they feared the players.

‘They might suspect, but there’s no evidence that I’m the culprit. They can’t even imagine that one of the mighty archangels could be dead.’

Even if it’s a disappearance, it would still be a big deal for them.

An archangel has vanished, after all.

‘But I’ve got nothing to worry about. As long as there’s no evidence, I won’t suffer any harm.’

It was the same in previous regressions.

I called the combat angels through the oracle and killed them, but suffered no repercussions.

Because there was no evidence.

And without solid evidence, they couldn’t act.

The Angels have a rule against meddling with players without a reason.

‘Initially, they used that skill to intimidate them, but afterwards, there must be a valid reason to use Sishal.’

They might threaten to blow up heads, but they really can’t.

Even if they could still use Sishal, they can’t kill a player for trivial reasons.

It would ruin the game their masters created.

So Ryu Min was relieved.

He might be suspected, but they can’t just harm him on a whim.

‘The problem is, after receiving the Devil’s Blessing and the Soul Binding quest, I need to keep killing angels…’

A long tail risks being stepped on; I might get caught eventually.

‘I’ll have to be more careful from now on.’

When Ryu Min turned his gaze, the angel hastily averted its eyes and stuttered.

[So, shall we check the results of the tally?]

It seems she still suspects the Black Scythe.

★ Round 10 Results Tally ★

[All Zones]

└1st place: Black Scythe (Lv89 Death God) 10 completions 09:48:01

└2nd place: Heavenly Demon (Lv44 Dark Knight) 7 completions 09:37:39

└3rd place: Dumb Idiots (Lv43 Shaman) 7 completions 09:49:01

[Zone C3-ESKA001]

└1st place: Black Scythe (Lv89 Death God) 10 completions 09:48:01

└2nd place: Heavenly Demon (Lv44 Dark Knight) 7 completions 09:37:39

└3rd place: Dumb Idiots (Lv43 Shaman) 7 completions 09:49:01

The results were as expected.

‘As expected, I’m first, and the others are Ma Kyung-rok and that guy.’

They probably managed their time better during the monster subjugation quests.

Their combat power is rated next only to the Black Scythe worldwide.

‘The Dark Knight is that strong. The Shaman class is also broken.’

And those in the top three get various rewards and privileges.

These rewards make them stronger, and those who ranked high initially tend to keep their spots.

That’s why the two of them monopolized the second and third places from the beginning.

[Have you all checked your rankings? Only the top 690 survive, and the rest will vanish. Let’s see… most with less than three quests completed will vanish?]

“Angel, I completed three quests but I’m still in the ranking!”

[That’s possible. If the number of quests completed is the same, ranking is determined by who finished first. Even with just three completions, you can rank.]

“Phew, that’s a relief.”

“Four completions are safe, then.”

“Damn it, I should have just done one more!”

“No way. I don’t want to die, dammit!”

[There’s nothing I can do about the system. Well, goodbye to those who are eliminated.]

With the angel’s words, ashes fluttered away.

As three-quarters of the people vanished, the once bustling space looked emptily silent.

Ryu Min, however, was only focused on checking his reward message.

[Congratulations! You have achieved 1st place in this zone!]

[Congratulations! You have achieved 1st place in all zones!]

[You are currently ranked 1st in all zones and in this specific zone.]

[As the ranking 1st in this zone, you will receive a ‘Lucky Package’.]

[As the ranking 1st in all zones, you will receive a ‘Special Reward Selection Box’.]

Ryu Min first used the Lucky Package.

[Please touch the reward you desire.]

└ 1. Gold Package

└ 2. Rune Package

└ 3. Materials Package

└ 4. Equipment Package

‘The rewards for round 10 are generous.’

The Lucky Package isn’t something that is easily given.

Especially since it offered a chance to obtain runes for free.

‘There are many choices, but I need nothing but the runes.’

Having tried all the options in previous regressions, nothing had the value of the runes.

[You have selected option 2. Rune Package.]

[The Rune Package has been added to your inventory.]

[Rune Package]

– Category: Consumable

– Grade: Legendary

– Effect: Obtain random rune.

– Usage Restriction: Expert grade and above

– Description: An item that allows you to randomly obtain a rune. Runes are not graded, so luck stats do not influence the outcome.

‘Since luck doesn’t affect it, shall I draw it now?’

Ryu Min decided to delay the draw.

There’s no rush, and if something undesirable comes out, it would only spoil his mood.

‘I’ll use this later and first utilize the other reward.’

Ryu Min used the Special Reward Selection Box.

[You can choose one of the following special rewards.]

[Please touch the reward you desire.]

└ 1. Temporary Skill – Clairvoyance (limited to round 11)

└ 2. 1.5x Point Increase Buff (limited to round 11)

└ 3. Information about round 11

Unlike the usual experience or stat buffs, different options appeared.

If someone didn’t know about round 11, they might agonize over what’s best.

‘I don’t need to worry, though.’

Round 11 is about gaining points.
