The 100th Regression of the Max-Level Player

Chapter 95: The Perfect Plan (2)

[The opponent resisted the fear.]

[Failed to cast the Curse of Terror.]

What? A failure?

Ju Sung-taek wondered if he had seen it wrong.

It was a message he had never seen once in the six rounds he had played.

Dont be surprised. With an 18% success rate, its only natural for it to fail most of the time.

What are you?

Before he could question further, he was struck on the chin with a punch.

Argh!

His teeth flew out as he staggered back, blood spurting.

He had nearly reached a near-death state, but

Shaaa

A warm sensation enveloped him, and both internal and external injuries healed completely.

What What just happened?

I healed you.

The other person spoke indifferently.

I wanted to beat you up a bit more.

Punch!

Before he could even turn his head back, the next punch landed.

Pak! Crunch! Punch!

A series of one-two punches made him stagger backward, and he collapsed.

Shaaa

He nearly lost consciousness, but the pain faded, and he recovered once again.

This This F*cking Bastard!!!

Ju Sung-taek, who had no idea why this was happening, was getting beaten by the other person again and again.

Despite having a weapon, he was beaten by him with his fists alone.

Damn it If I could only use the Curse of Terror

The cooldown for the Curse of Terror was one minute.

Despite enduring countless beatings, it seemed he still couldnt use his power. It was clear that the time hadnt come yet.

Just one more minute, damn it, he muttered under his breath.

But even moments that feel like they would last forever eventually pass. For Ju Sung-taek, who had held on for so long, an opportunity finally arose.

[Cooldown for the Curse of Terror has reset.]

Youre finished, you damn bastard.

Although he had narrowly escaped the curse earlier, this time

Thud! Thud!

Whats happening?

Ju Sung-taek was momentarily blinded, disoriented by the overwhelming pain surging from his eyes.

Ah, ah!

Your parents, who brought a dirty bastard like you into the world, must be shedding blood tears of despair in the afterlife, just like you are now.

Ugh You son of a bitch!

Whip! Whip!

Desperate to counterattack, he drew his dagger and swung it wildly, but landing a blow without vision was near impossible.

How dare you fool me?

Thwack!

Ju Sung-taek was sent sprawling by a kick from his foe.

Though his vision was gone, he could still sense his surroundings.

Did that guy deliberately poke my eyes during the cooldown? Nah, couldnt be.

Could his opponent possibly know that eye contact was required to use the Curse of Terror? More likely, it was just a lucky hit.

Damn it, it hurts. it hurts You bastard! What should I do?

Blinded and missing an arm, hed have been dead by now if his opponent hadnt employed some method to heal him.

Is there truly no way to defeat this guy?

Then, a single idea sprang to mind.

Didnt he still have one more skill?

That bastard. He underestimated me too much.

Even if he perished, hed take that guy down with him. With unwavering resolve, he activated his skill.

He wasnt sure if it would work, but

Its either die, or

[Corpse Explosion]

Die.

Kwaaang!

* * *

As the explosion rocked the alley, nearby merchants rushed to the scene.

What Whats happening?

Wow, look over there!

They saw charred marks, shattered clothing collection bins, and bits of flesh scattered about.

Those who quickly reported it to the police were unaware that someone had been watching them from afar.

Phew, I almost met my end because of this bastard.

Ryu Min, who had taken refuge inside the two-story building, glanced at the unconscious Ju Sung-taek in one corner.

You crazy bastard. You cant even see whats in front of you and youre using Corpse Explosion.

If it werent for Ryu Mins ability to read thoughts, both of them could have easily become mere pieces of flesh.

Sure, hes a scumbag deserving of death a hundredfold, but

Ryu Min still didnt have the heart to end Ju Sung-taeks life yet.

If that were the case, he would have swiftly grabbed the materials, cut his neck, and disappeared.

Hes a psychopath, but theres a way to make use of him. The rune he possesses for item drops is quite valuable.

Ju Sung-taeks in-game nickname was Dumb Idiot, just like Ma Kyung-rok, also known as Heavenly Demon, who vied for the 2nd and 3rd spots in the previous zone rankings.

However, teaming up with a serial killer posed a problem.

I dont intend to take him all the way to Round 20, but I can utilize him to help defeat the boss before then.

The drop rune, as its name suggested, significantly boosted item drop rates.

It was especially effective at increasing the chances of boss-level creatures dropping special items by tenfold.

So, if the base drop rate is 10%, this rune turns it into an incredible 100%.

Thats how he managed to extract legendary materials from the High Orc earlier.

If I use his rune wisely, it could prove beneficial.

After all, hadnt he already listed legendary materials on the PPL Market?

Given his skills, he was bound to offer even more valuable materials in the future.

The issue lies in him being a serial killer

Leaving him as he was felt ethically troubling, considering he could potentially harm innocent people.

However, that doesnt mean theres no solution.

Ryu Min took out a sword.

There was no need to give him a reason to track him down by using the scythe.

Shtick!

Since one arm had already been severed, he went ahead and removed one of Ju Sung-taeks legs.

Then, he applied first aid with only one arm and one leg remaining.

The wounds healed, and the stumps became smooth.

I used it on his eyes, so when he awakens, his vision should return.

However, he couldnt reattach the severed limbs.

Ju Sung-taek was now missing one arm and one leg.

By making his real body disabled, he wont be able to commit murder recklessly. Anyway, what I need is a body in the other world capable of gathering items.

Even if he turned Ju Sung-taek into a disabled individual, his avatar in the other world would remain unaffected.

Now I can depart without concerns.

Of course, since he saw my face, hell probably attempt revenge when he wakes up

There was no issue with that. The face Ryu Min had revealed belonged to the deceased Hwang Yongmin.
