'Oh, it's already at the third day of the tutorial. They are probably the group who found the King Olazusk Fury Bracer before?'

Kim Shin didn't know what to do. Should he tell them that the dungeon is going to collapse or just ignore them?

He's not a good guy. But, he also has humanity in him. And especially he didn't have any bad encounters with this group before.

Getting insane with his thoughts.

After much deliberation, Kim Shin made a decision about what to do.

"Run! Don't just stand there, the dungeon will collapse at any moment!"

Kim Shin yelled. As he ran passed through them.

TREMBLE! Crack~

BAM! BAM!

The brick roof started cracking and the debris fell on the ground that smashed the unfortunate men to their deathbeds.

"Retreat! Go, RETREAT!"

Kim Shin heard the decision of the group. He, turned his head to looked back and frowned to found that amidst of panicking group. There are two different men who seem calm and glaring at him with killing intent while they retreat.

'Hmm. Burly and Skinny..'

'Appraise'

Kim Shin silently appraised the burly man.

Ding~

The information window of a burly man appeared before his eyes.

'Axe Mastery?!'

Dumbfounded at what he saw. Kim Shin wondered if this man is a wood-cutter on earth before.

'The world is really small, for me to meet a suppose to be one of the powerful figures in Yggdrasil. But, unfortunately, he's already corrupted.'

Kim Shin was certain that this man is already corrupted by desire.

It's normal to have a desire. But, to get your desire over your head is really something not good.

Although, Kim Shin also wants to be powerful for a reason. He didn't want to be controlled by his desire.

He won't like to imagine being slaughtered just to get stronger.

In this dog-eating world, having morality is like a defense mechanism in this corrupted world.

He wanted to achieve his goals without being corrupted.

Next,

'What? This time it's a Dagger Master?'

Kim was utterly confused. If, there were two masters in this group, how the hell did they end up annihilated before(?)

He did not know what happened before. But, even he knew he doesn't care. Actually, he indirectly save their lives from annihilation.

Because Kim Shin got the Artifact instead of them. So, they won't face an early eradication.

Therefore, Kim Shin is their secret saviour. Hence, if they still plan to rob him. Kim Shin won't hesitate to reap their precious lives.

Kim Shin closed the system window and decided to leave quickly. However, after he took a few steps he sensed that, there was already someone followed up to him.

As he turned his head back, he discovered that the skinny man managed to catch with his basic speed.

'Hmm'

Impressed with the skinny man agility that continue speeding. Kim Shin increased his speed at the influenced of the Skinny Man.

Whoosh!

The Skinny man was left in the dust by Kim Shin's swiftness. The other escaping men's was dumbfounded at Kim Shin's ridiculous speed.

After a few minutes of unceasing running. Kim Shin finally reached and saw the outside world again.

whew~

Bang! Tremble~ Crash~

The dungeon's entrance collapsed as the last survivor luckily escaped the falling debris.

'It's Dark..'

Even though, it's without a doubt a sunny morning. The surrounding was undeniably dark.

"This forest really lives in its name.."

Kim Shin murmured.

"Huff... Huff... We fortunately survived"

Thankfully said by one of the survivor gasping man.

Hearing the gasping breathing from the survivors. Kim Shin surveyed everyone alive and didn't find anything noticeable other than the Burly and Skinny man.

"Uhm. Excuse me?"

As if he already expected it, Kim Shin turned his head slowly to the skinny man who wants his attention.

"Yes?"

Kim Shin responded.

"I'm Steve, I should be thankful for your advice. But, I'm really curious, maybe not just me. My party was all baffled at what happened. Do you have any idea why it suddenly collapsed?"

The Skinny man seriously asked.

Kim Shin didn't answer the question immediately.

He looked at the Skinny man from head to toe.

He realized that this Skinny man is a head taller than him and pretty handsome for a thief.

'Maybe he is an assassin on earth or something like that..'

The skinny man frowned at the way Kim Shin's look at him.

"Oh. Sorry, I'm just curious at your job on earth. And about the collapsed dungeon, I don't have any idea. After the Guide Tutorial transferred us, I opened my eyes to realize that I'm inside a dungeon... And you know what happened next.."

Kim Shin lied in a pitiful tone.

The Skinny man was doubtful at Kim Shin's answer.

While still in his acting, he saw the Burly man; Bruno Jones, walking in their direction behind Steve.

And when Bruno reached Kim Shin.

"With you dressed-up like that? Are you sure you don't know anything?"

Bruno said with a big and intimidating tone while looking down at Kim Shin.

Kim Shin looked up at the not just burly man Bruno but also a tall man. He's two head taller than Kim Shin.

"And what do you mean about that?"

Kim Shin questioned in a serious tone.

Bruno grinned and,

"Well, Show it to us what you've got inside that dungeon!"

While opening his right hand to Kim Shin.

Kim Shin smiled in amazement. You really can't stop anyone from their greedy self. If the greed starts to act, you will risk anything just to satisfy yourself.

Greed is indeed a terrifying demon that reinforcing anyone's selfish desire.

"So, this is the way how you compensate to your savior... I actually save your lives twice"

Kim Shin murmured to himself.

"What did you say?"

"Ah, nothing. Okay.."

"Okay? What do you mean, okay?"

"Okay. I agree."

Bruno was puzzled at Kim Shin's answered.

He did not expect that Kim Shin would easily agree to his demand.

"Here!"

Kim Shin brought out from his inventory a shining gold wrist protector with a crimson translucent gem in the middle of it, appeared at his right hand.

It's the King Olazusk Fury Bracer.

All the men alive turned to look at the golden bracer at Kim Shin's hand. Even those injured can't take their eyes off from the Golden Item.

Greed shown in their eyes. They are certain that its no ordinary item.

Especially Bruno, who's already drooling at the sight of the gold bracer.

"Can I take a closer look at that?"

Bruno demand once more and advance slowly to Kim Shin.

Kim Shin took back his hand that holding the Fury Bracer.

"Hmm. I don't think so. Prior to our agreement that I will only show it. Now, that you all saw it. I already gave your demand."

Kim Shin declined.

"You!!!"

Bruno was pissed off at Kim Shin's retort.

Kim Shin was right but, He didn't expect that Kim Shin had a gut to pointed out the agreement.

He wanted to hack Kim Shin's body into half.

Bruno slowly unsheathe his Big Axe from his back.

"Brother! What are you doing?!"

Steve yelled at furious Bruno.

Kim Shin was flabbergasted at revelation. Steve and Bruno were Brothers(?)

'But how?'

They don't have any single resemblance at each other.

Steve is good-looking while, Bruno is far from being handsome.

"Same old job, Robbing!"

Bruno replied.

"What? Are you out of your mind? Don't you realize anything?"

"What? Don't tell me that you're afraid of him? He's just only one, look around there are so many of us!"

Bruno stated.

"Hais... No, Don't include me with your insane ambition.."

Steve sighed.

"Tch. Don't come later and asked for a piece of equipment."

"Men! Get ready!"

Bruno loudly called all his men.

Eight survivor men stand behind their leader.

Despite their injured body, they still came quickly at the Leader call.

"Now, now, we can still make this more easier. Bring out all your items and Kindly handle it to us, and we might give you mercy or else.."

Bruno stared greedily at Kim Shin's fury bracer.

"So, it really ends up in this way huh.."

whew~

Kim Shin mumbled to himself and sighed.

He put back the fury bracer in his inventory as it disappeared.

"Then, come and get it!"

Kim Shin smirk and his eyes turned serious.

"So, You want it in an extreme way? Fine! I will remove that smug face of yours."

Bruno clenched his teeth in pissed. And move his Big Axe above his shoulder to hack Kim Shin. While releasing killing intent.

"Now, Die!!!!"

While roaring, Bruno swung his Big Axe to Kim Shin.

However, before it got to hack it down. Kim Shin suddenly blinked while leaving after image. And instantly appeared at Bruno's back.

No, Kim Shin just activate his accelerator and ran behind Bruno.

And with a 'slash'.

Thud!

Bruno's headless body fell on the ground that cut by a black iron sword that appeared out of nowhere.

Silence filled the surrounding.
