Dimensional Sovereign

Chapter 42: Trampling those with Gold Spoons (5)

’Should I give a tribute?’

The ogre wouldn’t attack and the base would also be protected from external invasions.

Kang-jun didn’t think it was necessarily a bad offer.

Of course, his pride wouldn’t easily let him bow his head to an ogre.

If it wasn’t for the penalty then he probably would have given 500 nodes to hire the ogre as a mercenary. If the ogre was protecting his base at the Eco building then Kang-jun could lure Jung Kwang-hyeon’s troops over.

500 nodes were worth defeating Jung Kwang-hyeon without losing any of his troops.

It was literally releasing his hand from his nose!

The ogre could maintain its pride and Kang-jun could get the task done!

However, charisma was a fixed stat and the most important one. Therefore, the decrease of one charisma point was a hard penalty to accept.

‘No. I will regret it.’

One day, he might shed tears of blood because of that one point.

The problem was that Kang-jun had no countermeasures prepared for saying ‘no.’ The furious ogre might rush over straight away and he wasn’t confident about winning.

‘If the fight is inevitable then I must win.’

It might be a reckless fight.

There were only a few days left to knock down the golden spoon Jung Kwang-hyeon.

The ogre was also a golden spoon.

The boss of the 7th floor! He was like the owner of a seven storey building in reality.

‘I will step on the ogre.’

Kang-jun’s eyes filled with flames.

At that moment, the message appeared again.

[The ogre Germuz once again requires a tribute.]

[Would you like to offer a tribute to him? Yes/No]

“No! I reject.”

Kang-jun made his decision.

[The ogre Germuz is very angry with you for rejecting the tribute.]

A roar was suddenly heard!

“Kuwaaaaaah!”

The sound was so loud that the building shook.

It was like a dinosaur roaring. Of course, it wasn’t a dinosaur but the ogre Germuz.

‘How great. I almost fell down just from that roar.’

Anyway, now wasn’t the time to admire him.

Kang-jun quickly went to his base in Room 307.

He picked up the iron sword that he had previous stored.

Suuk.

He felt a strange thrill as he held the sword.

What was this feeling?

The sword felt so familiar, it was like Kang-jun had been training in swordsmanship for a long time! It was incomprehensible but swordsmanship felt more familiar than taekwondo.

‘Is it because of that?’

After learning Heaven’s Blood Sword Style, Kang-jun’s body had changed into the best condition for the sword.

‘This will be worth it.’

Then a message appeared.

[Mission 7] Repel the Ogre Germuz!

Compensation: Experience, 1000 nodes, Warrior’s Sword (Rare)

In the end, a mission showed up.

A mission to repel the ogre Germuz!

‘Enormous rewards.’

A huge 1,000 nodes!

It also gave a rare grade weapon, the Warrior’s Sword.

‘I have to defeat him anyway, so it is better to do it for a mission.’

It wasn’t wrong to say that a sovereign was given a mission they wanted.

But if the difficulty was raised like this from the beginning, what would Mission 100 turn out to be? Common sense told him that Mission 100 would be much harder.

‘Let’s just think about the current mission.’

It was something he brought upon himself. And it wasn’t a bad thing that the mission was difficult.

It was hard but the rewards were huge.

In other words, even if 100 missions were passed, the rewards would differ depending on the difficulty level of the missions.

Kuwuong!

It was at that moment. Did a bomb hit the building? The building shook as there was huge roar.

“Kuwaaaaaah!”

The ogre’s shout.

’The roof.’

Kang-jun’s expression stiffened. It was clear that the ogre Germuz had jumped from the roof of the Dain building to the roof of the Eco building.

’He is a really ignorant bastard!’

Anyway, he had decided to fight so there was no time to hesitate.

Kang-jun headed directly to the roof.

The centre of the roof was expanded like a school playground.

Something was standing there.

He was four metres tall. He was similar to the minotaur that Rodiam had transformed into not long ago.

However, he was even tougher. There were bones and skulls hanging from his waistband. They were human and monster skulls.

"Kukuku! Puppy sovereign, you came after hearing my roar. It still isn’t too late. Swear that you will give me a tribute. Then I will save you.”

The dark eyes covered in grey hair were shining eerily.

A wild-looking appearance. His entire body was muscular and as hard as steel. One tight fist seemed to be larger than an adult’s head.

An ogre looked like this.

One hit from those fists seemed capable of killing him.

Just one hit! It would be enough to send someone to hell. Indeed, that strength really seemed capable of killing him.

However, Kang-jun just smiled and shouted.

"You dare to ask me for a tribute! Why don’t you become one of my subordinates? Then I will spare you.”

"What?"

Germuz was stunned and stared at Kang-jun with an incredulous expression. Kang-jun’s words about sparing Germuz’s life were completely ridiculous.

Germuz lifted one of the skulls hanging from his waist and said.

"Puppy sovereign, do you know what this is? It is the skull of a sovereign who dared to resist me like you are doing.”

Sovereign’s skull! Was that true? There had been a sovereign here. Kang-jun was surprised.

"Kukuku, you don’t seem to believe it. Look. The cloak I’m wearing now is the sovereign token I took from him.”

Germuz swiftly turned and showed off his cloak.

The cloak was worn like a scarf and made him look ridiculous.

Kang-jun laughed.

“What about it? Do you think you have become a sovereign just because you have the sovereign token?”

Germuz scowled.

“No, I am not a sovereign. The ones who will become a sovereign are already fixed. But it is my destiny to eat those who reject my offer. I will subdue the sovereigns and rule over them. Kukakakat!”

"That is just a dog’s dream.”

“What? What did you say just now?”

"I will show you that dream is false. Now stop talking nonsense and attack.”

Germuz stared at Kang-jun like he was prey to be eaten. Then he started crazily laughing.

"Keuk! Kukukuk! Kukakakat! It seems like I will gain one more skull today.”

Germuz pounded his chest with his fists and ran towards Kang-jun. Kang-jun’s eyes became cold.

‘If I don’t kill him then I will die.’

He forgot everything else for the moment. The fact that he was a sovereign and that he needed to make money.

He was only absorbed in the duel.

Kung kung kung kung!

Germuz was 10 metres in front of him.

‘Aura of the Wind!’

His movement speed and attack speed were accelerated by the wind, so it was the most beneficial skill.

“Kukakakat! Die, you little sovereign!”

The ogre’s fist flew in front of Kang-jun. If hit by that punch, it would be like having a truck moving at 120 km/hr slamming into him.

Swiiing!

If he didn’t avoid this then he would die.

Kang-jun moved quickly.

Sswiing!Sswing sswing!

Germuz’s fists kept on moving. He seemed infuriated that Kang-jun had avoided it.

Swi sswing!Papapat!

However, Kang-jun was able to avoid Germuz’s attacks in a stable manner.

Susuk!Susususu!Sususuk!

His feet moved in a strange trajectory and suddenly rotated. Kang-jun’s body reacted and avoided being damaged by Germuz.

Surprisingly, the footwork of Heaven’s Blood Sword Style unfolded by itself. Kang-jun’s level was still too low to show its true power. Fortunately, it combined with Aura of the Wind and allowed him to avoid Germuz’s attack.

But that was it. Kang-jun hurriedly dodged the attack.

’Shit! I don’t have time to strike at all.’

He barely even had a chance to breathe. However, he shouldn’t be too impatient. If he lost even a little bit of concentration, then it would be all over.

In the meantime, Germuz screamed as his attacks were constantly dodged.

“Kuaaaah! This rat!”

At that moment, Kang-jun leapt forward. His sword instantly sliced across Germuz’s neck like a ray of light.

Supak!

It was a hit. He had aimed for the hole in Germuz’s stance. It truly was the unconscious use of Heaven’s Blood Sword Style.

But Germuz pulled away at the same time. Kang-jun’s sword only swiped Germuz’s neck a little bit. The thick, solid skin was only slightly scratched.

’Shit!’

Kang-jun inwardly swore. A normal person would have suffered a deadly injury.

Yet Germuz only suffered a scratch, even with the added wind attribute damage. Germuz’s skin was hard but the power of the iron sword was also bad.

"Kuoh! Nice move.”

On the other hand, Germuz was surprised by Kang-jun’s move. From then on, Germuz started moving more carefully.

Hwik!Sswing sswing!Swi swi sswingPapapat!

He unleashed an onslaught of moves towards Kang-jun like Germuz had met a lifelong opponent.

‘Ugh, I don’t see any gaps.’

Due to Aura of the Wind, his black magic energy was constantly being consumed. He had black magic recovery potions but there was no chance to drink while avoiding the ogre’s fists.

The same went for his health. Even if Kang-jun was injured, he couldn’t help but fight.

’At this rate, I will be defeated.’

Kang-jun took a deep breath. Germuz was running amok.

Kang-jun was putting in a lot of effort while Germuz had a leisurely smile on his face.

After some time?

Kang-jun’s cold eyes shone.

‘It can’t be helped. It is dangerous but will be worth it.’

Kang-jun’s body jumped as Germuz’s fist headed towards his head. No, he seemed to jump forward.

Sswiing!

Germuz thought that Kang-jun had jumped so he swung his fists.

However, Kang-jun had leapt towards the other side of Germuz.

Syuok!

Germuz was shocked but quickly blocked the sword with his hand. Kang-jun’s expression became awful.

‘It failed!’

Germuz really had amazing reflexes.

Kaaang!

Then something unexpected happened. Kang-jun’s sword that hit Germuz’s hand was broken.

At the same time, the broken fragments of the sword flew towards Germuz’s eyes.

Paak!

“Kuaak!”

Kang-jun didn’t miss the moment when Germuz was staggering around with his eyes covered. The remaining part of his sword sliced across Germuz’s neck.

Chwaack!

Although the blade was shorter, it succeeded in dealing a deep wound.

“Kuwaaaaaah! I will kill you.”

Germuz roared and rushed towards Kang-jun. Kang-jun blocked Germuz’s fist with his sword.

Bam!

"Kuuack!”

Kang-jun was pushed back 20 metres.

“Ugh, shit!”

He immediately jumped up after falling.

Health: 162/310.

Only one hit! It was blocked by the sword yet almost half of his health was still gone.

Blood fell from his mouth but Kang-jun just glared at Germuz.

“......?”

In the meantime, Germuz had disappeared. He turned and saw that Germuz was climbing the wall of the building next to the Dain building.

"Oduk! Y-you will see soon. I’ll let you go today, but next time will be different.”

After that, Germuz could no longer be seen.

He ran away?

Kang-jun could barely regain his spirit as he looked around.

[Mission 7 has been accomplished.]

A message appeared at that moment!

[As a reward, enough experience will be given to increase your level.]

[1000 nodes will be given as compensation.]

[The Warrior’s Sword has been given as compensation.]

‘Phew! I barely succeeded.’

Kang-jun placed a hand over his heart. He was fortunate enough to repel the ogre Germuz.

Thanks to fulfilling Mission 7, Kang-jun reached Lv13.

In addition, a black sword had appeared in front of Kang-jun.
