Three Meals of a Reincarnator

Chapter 117: Episode 117

From this point forward, devils appeared, not monsters.

Since the hunters had run into devils before, they kept their eyes wide open with great anxiousness.

The 9th floor seemed just like all the other floors, but the way the hunters felt about it was completely different.

They sensed a cold air, and they dripped in sweat.

But the thoughts between the American hunters and the other hunters were also different.

They had confirmed that they became more powerful after ingesting the item from Samchunkyo, and they became even more certain after slaying the monsters within the tower.

So they wanted to see just how strong they were by taking on a devil as well.

And not long afterward, a devil appeared.

It had a face and body similar to that of humans, but the devil’s body was black while its eyes were red like blood.

Once the world hunters spotted the devil, they prepared to attack.

Meanwhile, an Aura light spread out, signifying their state.

They decided to attack first.

The American hunter master, Ethan, ran toward the devil first.

After seeing him step up, the other world hunters also gathered the courage to attack the devil.

The attacks of Ethan and the world hunters targeted the single devil before them.

Meanwhile, Min Sung knitted his brows.

‘Why is there only one?’

When he cleared the 8th floor, there were tons of devils all at once.

So Min Sung felt suspicious that there was only one on the 9th floor.

But wondering that didn’t mean he would get an answer to his suspicion.

Min Sung quietly watched the hunters fight against the devil.

The world hunters had previously been annihilated in a one-sided defeat, but this situation was different.

It could be seen that Ethan and the world hunters were dealing damage to the devil.

Min Sung was suspicious about the American hunters’ sudden growth, but he stopped thinking about It and took out a triangle Kimbap from his item window.

***

The way of peeling a triangle Kimbap was unique.

First, you must pull a tab located in the middle of the triangle.

After peeling off that plastic, the cute triangle Kimbap would appear out of the wrapper.

Min Sung took a bite of his triangle Kimbap.

Crunch!

The seaweed crumbled with a crisp sound, and he soon tasted the contents of the Kimbap.

This triangle Kimbap tasted like tuna mayonnaise.

‘Huh?’

He didn’t expect much from a simple Kimbap, but its special flavor made him happier than he expected.

The taste of mayonnaise was especially mindblowing.

And the tuna was soft and sweet.

The perfect combination of sweet and salty put him in awe.

When he took his second bite, he wanted to go back home right away, spray mayonnaise all over some rice and eat it with a can of tune.

However, considering his cooking skills, he was better off just eating out.

Once Min Sung finished his triangle Kimbap, he lifted his head and looked straight ahead.

***

It hadn’t been long since he had triangle Kimbap, but there were already injured soldiers.

Although there were injured soldiers, the devil was getting pretty damaged as well.

The results were surprising.

Although it was just one devil, the situation was different from before, and the ones who produced the results were the American hunters.

Their attack speed and their defense ability improved.

Currently, the skill difference between American hunters and the other hunters were too big to be compared.

The only ones actually making any damage to the devil were the American hunters.

Meanwhile, Ho Sung Lee and Bowl simply waited to take the kill.

They knew that even if Min Sung didn’t step up, they would get the opportunity to eat the kill.

At the thought of being able to handle the devil as an undead, Bowl’s eyes lit up with fire.

***

Once the devil was damaged enough to be out of energy, Ho Sung Lee and Bowl looked at each other.

Ho Sung Lee swung his Death Knight Sword while Bowl cast a spell and poured out his dark magic upon the devil.

A dark fog wrapped around the devil and another sword appeared from within.

The wave made the world hunters stop their attacks.

Ho Sung Lee tried to stab it with his sword, but it had no effect.

In order to stab him, he had to enter the dark magic that Bowl had cast earlier, but that was too dangerous.

While Ho Sung Lee stared at Bowl with envy, Bowl used all of his attack skills on the devil.

The curse of ruin.

The darkness entered the devil’s skin.

As a result, a liquid substance oozed out of the devil’s skin.

“Aghhhhhhhhh!”

The devil screamed chillingly and died.

At that moment.

Before the devil died, a gold light shined from above Bowl’s head.

If the devil died right there, he was unable to deal with the devil as an undead.

For that reason, Bowl prepared a reincarnation spell.

Whooshhhhhh!

Bowl’s reincarnation spell entered the devil.

The devil’s exploded body scattered items that turned into a liquid substance, and then he began his reincarnation process.

The world hunters stared on in shock as the devil reincarnated.

Once the devil was 90% restored, a magic square appeared from below its feet.

The magic square shined a strong light and wrapped around the reincarnated devil.

The dark smoke completely surrounded the devil and exploded in all four directions.

While the world hunters covered their eyes in shock, Bowl stared at the devil and danced from side to side while laughing.

Bowl was able to deal with the devil as an undead.

***

Bowl flipped his head back and snickered.

“Jeez, are you happy?”

Ho Sung Lee asked while glaring at Bowl.

Bowl didn’t answer and continued to laugh.

“Damn it. You’re just taking everything.”

He spat onto the ground in annoyance.

Ho Sung Lee was full of envy, but he gulped when he realized the world hunters looking at them.

They were even more jealous than he was.

Ho Sung Lee stroked his chin as if he didn’t notice and looked away.

***

“They’re taking all the kills and items for themselves…”

“We did all the work!”

“I think we can do it without them as long as we have the Americans…”

“This is so unfair.”

“F*ck…”

“Those thugs. Ugh…”

They were all dissatisfied.

Since they made all the attacks but all the benefits went to them, they were understandably upset.

In particular, the American hunters felt like this was unfair.

Their rage rooted from their belief that they could get through the tower without Min Sung Kang’s help.

The hunters were dissatisfied beyond words.

***

Ethan stood in front of Min Sung.

“I don’t think this is fair.”

In response, Min Sung laughed.

“What is this? Are you suddenly getting greedy after defeating one devil?”

Ethan was unable to deny it.

He simply stared at Min Sung with confidence in his eyes.

Min Sung looked back at Ethan and shook his head.

“Okay. Do this on your own then. Our deal ends here. Can we terminate the contract?”

“… With no complaints later?”

“Of course.”

Min Sung smiled and walked out of the 9th floor.

***

Even while walking down the stairs with Min Sung, Ho Sung Lee was unable to understand his decision.

Why was he so easygoing when he was asked to terminate the contract?

‘What’s going on?’

Was he never interested in raiding the tower with the world hunters in the first place?

But then again, it was strange that a human more brutal than a tiger or wolf was willing to mingle with the world hunters, who were like sheep.

‘Then why did he even came to the tower?’

‘I doubt it was to sell the Devil’s Sword for 1 trillion.’

Ho Sung Lee considered asking him but decided to put it off until later.

For the time being, exiting the tower came first.

“Hmm…”

Ho Sung Lee heard a strange sound from beside him and turned toward it.

Bowl was sticking out his head from Min Sung’s pocket and stared at the world hunters behind them.

It looked as though he wanted to make more devils into the undead.

Ho Sung Lee clicked his tongue and shook his head.

***

“Is it okay to just let them go?”

“We might have caught one devil, but there will be more with higher levels…”

“The conditions are unfair, but I think we should convince them to come back.”

“Ethan, if you can’t do it, we’ll go and get them for you.”

“You shouldn’t do this just because your feelings were hurt.”

In response to the complaints from all sides, Ethan closed his eyes and made an effort to remain calm.

The American hunters were the only ones who were capable of clearing the Black Tower.

Ingesting the item made them strong enough to take on devils.

And the rest of the hunters were nothing but dead weight.

Since such useless men were criticizing his decision, Ethan started to feel angry.

The reason why he came with Min Sung Kang was because he wasn’t confident to fight the devils without him.

But once it was confirmed that they could do it, he changed his mind.

Rather than getting pulled around by Min Sung Kang, he thought that it was best to defeat the devils and claim the items for themselves.

And if he continued to dance to Min Sung Kang’s drum, it was possible that all of the world hunters would soon be out of a job.

The growth rate of greed within a human’s heart was as fast as that of a monster.

He needed to get in the way of ‘Min Sung Kang’s greed’ from blowing out of proportion.
