57 – Disaster Level Monster (3)

The situation was halted for several hours due to the dissuasion of the tankers and healers.

The fight stopped, but the strange atmosphere of being wary of each other did not disappear.

As the mission of the ordeal was to kill the doppelgänger, the awakened people did not trust each other, and those feelings were fully expressed through their actions.

For a long time, we kept our distance from each other and did not take our weapons out of our hands.

Kangwoo frowned as he noticed that the sun was gradually going behind the dense branches of the forest.

‘What is it? ‘Why isn’t it coming out?’

It’s been a while since the ordeal began, and not a single hair of the doppelganger’s head was visible.

‘Are they really here?’

When Kang-woo looked at the awakened people around him.

The archer, who had been chatting with the longsword until now, muttered to himself and spoke in a loud voice.

“The level of difficulty has jumped so much because of someone… Sigh – I’m annoyed, I’m annoyed.”

‘… I want to hit just one person.’

This was the first time I felt this way toward an awakened person while climbing the tower.

‘I’m enduring it because it’s a doppelganger ordeal…’

First of all, it was obvious that if he attempted violence, he would immediately be suspected of being a doppelganger and become a target for other awakened people. Maybe that bastard knows that too, so he speaks comfortably…

“Why? What? “Are you talking to yourself?”

He didn’t say anything, but Kang-woo grinned as he watched the archer talking to himself. He then looked around and said.

“Where does the dog bark?”

“Hey, that bastard…!!”

The archer, whose face turned red, kicked off the floor and stood up. Seeing that, Kang-woo said with an expression of confusion.

“…? “I’m talking to myself too?”

However, Archer was a petty man who could tolerate his own talking to himself but could not tolerate other people’s talking to himself.

“This young kid keeps talking back and forth…!!”

I see older people saying the same buzzwords they throw out whenever they have nothing to say.

“What does a cub who is only two years older than me say now?”

Kang-woo, who was dumbfounded, realized his mistake when he saw Archer’s face, which looked like he was about to spit out a curse at any moment.

“Ah… Stop thinking to yourself.”

This was truly a mistake.

Perhaps.

“That bastard-!!”

When the archer, who could not hold back his anger, ran forward holding his bow, the startled Longsword and Tanker ran and blocked the charging archer with their whole bodies.

“Let go! Let go!! “That bastard is so talkative!”

“Tea, hold on! Be patient! “We are in an ordeal here!!”

“Bow! Take the bow first!! “What kind of archer is this strong!”

The archer caught between the large tank and the long sword fluttered around like an anchovy on land.

“You, you-! You think you’re lucky, you bastard! “If you met me outside-“

“That side of the head must have broken first.”

“I-! I! Look at that talking pig! Let go!! Why are you holding me! “We have to catch that bastard!”

The sight of it fluttering around between two large figures is quite spectacular.

‘You can’t just enjoy this spectacle.’

Kangwoo took out the beef jerky from the subspace ring and chewed the beef jerky.

“Ah-ah, let go!!”

It was a bonus for the archer who saw that to grab the back of his neck and scream.

***

The commotion ended with the exhausted archer being knocked down.

The surroundings have already begun to turn red in the color of the setting sun.

“Why… Why hasn’t the doppelganger appeared yet?”

The healer chewed the tips of her fingernails and looked around.

But even if that were the case, there was no way that a doppelganger that had not appeared before would suddenly appear after the ordeal began.

Tak. Widely.

Only the sound of Healer biting her nails echoed in the quiet forest.

Other awakeners who would have comforted the anxious healer before did not take any action anymore.

It was difficult for them to shake off their own anxiety.

A strange atmosphere was felt among the awakened people.

‘What is it? ‘Are you really in here?’

Kangwoo continued his thoughts from earlier. The assumption is that a doppelganger may already be hiding here.

‘I wish it was that bastard.’

Then it will be possible to break the head legally.

Kang-woo, who was staring at the archer sitting with his back turned, shook his head to let his thoughts go.

The red-stained sky foretold that the sun would soon set and night would come.

As time passes by, it is clear that an incident will occur soon, so I should not be distracted by unnecessary thoughts.

So Kang-woo checks his shield and raises the tension.

Tap, thump, thud.

“What if night comes like this? “If a doppelganger appears at night…!”

In a moment, the healer’s complexion became noticeably pale and her body trembled due to her fear.

To the extent that they cannot trust each other.

She didn’t think it was natural for a healer who had neither the weapons nor the ability to protect herself to be so anxious.

Tap-tap-tap.

Kangwoo frowned as he saw blood flowing from the healer’s fingernails.

There was no sign of calming down on his own.

Looking around, Kang-woo was in better condition than the healer, but when he saw that the others were also unable to hide their nervousness, he was about to stand up with the intention of calming down his healer.

“You may have already appeared, right?”

“Yes, yes?”

“No, isn’t it? “The doppelganger may already be here.”

The archer’s gaze was explicitly directed at Kang-woo.

‘I’m sure that kid is a doppelganger.’

Otherwise, there was no way I would have said bullsh*t in front of someone who was shaking like that.

You can’t soothe it, but it creates anxiety.

At the archer’s words, she looked around and saw the healer walking backwards.

‘I think it’s completely gone.’

Kang-woo, who listened to the archer’s argument with one ear and let it go with the other, took steps to calm down her healer.

Then, was she angry at the thought of being ignored?

“But are you really sure you bought those items with the points you earned from the trials? “You didn’t steal it by looting it?”

The archer crossed the line.

“….”

The already cool atmosphere went below freezing.

Did I realize my mistake in the freezing atmosphere as the cold wind blew by?

The archer took a step back with a puzzled expression, but it was already too late.

“What…?”

“… Oh, no, just now-“

“Plunder? “Is it true that you knew what those words meant and did it now?”

Kangwoo, holding a shield, walked towards the archer with long strides.

“Are you sane? No, do you really just want to die? “Why did you do that earlier?”

“Everyone, don’t come near, stay there…!”

The sight of him quickly closing the distance and holding his shield so that his veins were sticking out made him look like he was going to slam the shield down on the archer’s head at any moment.

“Hey, wait a minute!”

“Kangwoo! “Calm down for a moment!”

The bloody appearance made me feel uneasy about the doppelganger, and the longsword and tank urgently ran to block the gap between the two.

“Look at that bastard, that bastard! “It’s definitely a doppelganger!”

Then did he think his personal safety was secured?

Looking at the longsword and tanker coming towards him, the archer said his damned tongue again.

“You have to kill that guy right now!”

Not even knowing that a long sword was approaching very close and was swinging its sword at him.

Hook!

“… Huh?”

The archer froze at what happened in the blink of an eye.

“What is this…?”

I couldn’t understand the situation just now.

When did Choi Kang-woo, who was far away, come into view?

Suddenly. Pop.

Why is blood dripping from the hand of Choi Kang-woo, who is blocking his path?

“W-what…!”.

The archer was staring blankly at the tip of his sword, which pierced Choi Kang-woo’s palm and stopped in front of his eyes.

“aaahhh-!!”

I fell backwards, screaming.

“Do, do, do, doppelganger…!!”

It’s not Choi Kang-woo, but Lee Seon-ho, who was chewing on Choi Kang-woo earlier, and that guy with the long sword was his doppelganger… !

My liver was cold.

I can’t believe you even have a doppelganger right next to you.

If it weren’t for Choi Kang-woo just now, he would have ended his life without even knowing who attacked him.

Like that, Archer Kim Dae-won holds his pounding heart and catches his breath.

Lee Seon-ho, or rather his doppelganger in the form of Lee Seon-ho, looked at the blocked tip of the sword with a dissatisfied expression, and asked Kang-woo.

“… Why did you block it? “Didn’t you want to kill me?”

The way he was tilting his head in question looked very human.

The archer was furious at the disgusting sight and shouted.

“How dare an uncivilized monster imitate a human being!!”

“Look. “You want to kill me, right?”

“What kind of place-“

“… That’s right.”

“…?!”

The archer’s mouth, which was wide enough to show his uvula, quickly shrunk.

“…Kangwoo?”

Whenever this bastard or that bastard were mentioned, honorifics were suddenly added to them.

The archer’s trembling eyes clearly reveal his inner thoughts, asking, ‘Are you really trying to kill me?’

When their eyes met, Kang-woo sighed at the sight of the archer smiling servilely.

“It’s unfortunate, but it’s like a human…” .”

Meaning that if it weren’t for people, they would have killed it.

At that, the archer burst into laughter.

“Ha, hahahahaha! No, it’s a joke… !”

Choi Kang-woo knew that those words were 100% sincere, that doppelganger knew that, and even Archer himself knew that he was saying that.

“hahahaha… ! “It’s so funny!”

The archer just held his stomach and laughed. I hope that is a joke.

‘… That’s a person.’

Kangwoo, who was looking at Archer with tired eyes, turned his gaze to his doppelganger.

“But… I didn’t know there were two doppelgangers.”

No, I looked at the doppelgangers.

“hahahaha, I’m laughing so hard… Yesssss to tortbeer

At Kang-woo’s words, Archer Kim Dae-won opened his eyes wide.

And then I saw Woo Byeong-woo, a tank running with a doppelganger in the shape of Lee Seon-ho. Even after it was revealed that Lee Seon-ho was his doppelganger, he did not leave his side.

As if the two were on the same side.

“hahahaha. It just so happened that it happened that way. “I didn’t know there was another member of my race.”

“Where are the original longswords and tanks? Could it be that they killed him?”

“You seemed like a person who didn’t have any camaraderie… I guess that’s not true?”

Kangwoo narrowed his eyebrows.

Is it because it is a monster that has the ability to copy everything of its opponent?

‘This thing doesn’t look like a monster, it looks like a person.’

If they hadn’t tried to attack first, I wouldn’t have even realized their identity. The monster in front of me was so difficult that it was no different from dealing with a person.

“Longsword and tank. “So you went around memorizing the Awakened Ones like that?”

“….”

“Hmm. What do you think? “Do you think he’s alive?”

It starts with taking time in front of the other person like this.

‘What is it?’

The reason why that doppelganger is smiling and taking time away.

Kangwoo’s eyes sharply scanned the surroundings. At that time.

From Noble mtl dot com

“Ugh, ugh! “There were two doppelgangers…!!”

At some point, a healer appeared from behind.

“Hey! Hand! What do you do with your hands? Kangwoo, I will heal you…!”

I hastily narrowed it down with a contemplative face.

Peooeok-!

Due to the nature of his ability to gradually recover stamina and wounds by blessing a certain area, healing is possible even without narrowing the distance.

“Uh… Huh? Kangwoo…?”

The archer looked mesmerized as he saw the body of the healer who was hit by the shield go limp and the blood that started from his head spread on the ground.

“Why…?”

The healer who said he would heal me… Why…?

But the archer soon realized why Choi Kang-woo acted like that.

Quick. Ugh.

This is because the body of the dead healer began to dry out at a rapid rate.

Like.

“Crazy…”

Like the body of a dead doppelganger.
