Hoarding in Hell Novel

After a while, Difficulty: Hell.

bang. It was the sound of the last beam breaking. Fragments of broken timber hit the narrow alley wall.

Hyunmoo spit out a swear word and kicked the goblin. However, the goblin avoided it with ease.

He installed all kinds of traps and traps in the alley, but usually he couldn't even catch his ankle.

Now that there were no more traps to use, Hyunmoo had to fight, exhausting his whole body.

A dagger flew fiercely and slashed his neck. Blood spurted up. Hyunmoo wrapped his arms around his neck and spread his hands out to splatter his blood. Poisonous blood dripped and scattered in the air.

The goblin opened his eyes wide as if he was expecting it, and shook off the animal skin that was wrapped around him. Hyunmoo's toxin was blocked in vain.

However, when the goblin mercilessly cleared the hide, it was a pair of hell-mosquito darts that flew in. Hyunmoo's hand gripped the goblin's head as a hell mosquito dart pierced his eyes.

bang! Hyunmoo shifted his weight and slammed the goblin's head down to the floor.

The goblin dropped the dagger in shock. Hyunmoo couldn't do that either, so he dug a dart inside his eye and punched his fist in succession.

His hands, reinforced with stout mittens, began to crush the goblin's head.

"Kyaak!"

The goblin, however, swung his hand indiscriminately, even though he had lost his eye.

Hyunmoo panicked and tried to avoid it, but his arms and chest went bloody in an instant. At that moment, Hyunmoo's fist smashed the goblin's teeth and dug into his mouth. The goblin didn't miss an opportunity. The steel teeth slipped out of Hyunmoo's hand in an instant.

Hyunmoo also did not miss the opportunity. Instead of pulling his hand out, he thrust his arm deep into the goblin's throat.

Goblins didn't last long. He crumpled and convulsed, then vomited black water from the holes all over his body.

[Level Up!]

[The conquering star, Ardan, is watching you.]

Hyunmoo raised his middle finger to the sky. He was exactly trying to lift it.

Until he realizes that he has been smashed apart by a goblin.

Because of this, Hyunmoo clenched his fists and became in a pose that seemed to be performing.

Hyunmoo let out a long roar, still drenched in his blood.

[Current difficulty: Survival time after entering Hell.]

[12 days 6 hours 17 minutes 8 seconds.]

"Butler, aren't you sick?"

Lenian said as he watched Hyunmoo wrap his smashed hand with a bandage. At first, of course, it hurt like crazy, but when it hurts too much, my head seems to go numb.

Now, it felt like I was wrapping myself in a bandage to keep the wound from getting worse while scratching.

"Of course it hurts."

"Can I lick you?"

Lenian said hesitating. In the end, that was what I wanted. Hyunmoo thought for a moment. When Lenian licks the blood, hemostasis is assured, but the area itchs like crazy.

But no matter how much you get used to it, it's better to be itchy than painful. Hyunmoo grunted and reached out to Lenian.

Lennie Ann began to lick his hand with excitement as if sucking ice cream.

Lenny Ann, who had fled in a flash as soon as the stars appeared, showed up hesitating as if when Hyunmoo returned to Hell. In his hand he holds the bones of an unidentified monster.

At least the survivability seemed better than Hyunmoo.

'How many days do you have left?'

Hyunmoo thought as he looked at Lenny Ann licking his hand.

At some point, if his stamina drops below 10%, his stamina is regenerated as a perk of the 'last person' title, and Hyunmoo was holding on to it. After all, it was only once a day.'But thanks to that, I'm still alive.'

But today ended earlier than expected. It must have been a long way from the start of the health regeneration privilege. Hyunmoo checked his level.

Level 15.

It was the result of 12 days after I set foot in hell. There weren't many monsters Hyunmoo could fight to level up.

The things that I wanted to have a little lower level were grouped together or were in places where it was difficult to even find them, and those who walked alone were impossible to deal with.

'It's better to fight the inspiration of Park Hwi-so than to deal with them.'

It wasn't a joke, it was the truth. Even Park Hwi-so wondered if he would be able to survive if he fought those monsters. But Hyunmoo had to level up among those monsters in a short period of time.

Of those monsters, the one that Hyunmoo was able to deal with was a goblin.

goblin. Beginner's friend.

Even in modern times, the law holds true. Because the bone ornaments that came out of a one-star dungeon and shed by goblins were the most commonly handled accessories by the company.

But the goblins here were different.

Not dirty leather clothes and bone weapons, but well-cut leather uniforms and shoes, and even smelted daggers. It reminded me of a mercenary or a soldier.

'How the fuck do these fucking bastards do it by any mean means... … .'

If it was even a little difficult, he ran away, and if the level was similar, he would shoot darts or spray poison from a long distance without hesitation.

He doesn't mind attacking from behind. They were people who didn't even know about fairness.

Hyunmoo felt for a moment that he had insulted himself for some reason, but he forgot.

In any case, they were the only low-level monsters Hyunmoo could face. The level did not rise any more with fine dust, mosquitoes, or insects.

Before Hyunmoo caught the first goblin, he died about 9 times. At that time, he leveled up about 2 at once, and after that, he was able to learn roughly how to do it.

'Of course, you still have to pour this much stamina to catch one.'

only one per day.

After recovering using stamina regeneration, he builds traps and devises new strategies throughout the day. In that way, he lures one guy in and kills him by surprise.

The strategy was simple. Inflict wounds on the goblin's body somehow.

It was the method I chose, as poisonous blood can do significant damage.

It was an ignorant method, but Hyunmoo was constantly raising the level like that.

Now that the level up is likely to stagnate, but if you watch it continue to rise, it seems to be because of the 'I am Legend' title privilege, which also adds additional experience correction.

If there was any hope, the number of cases in which the limbs were intact even after the hunting was over was increasing. In the beginning, it was hard to tell which of the Goblin's or Hyunmoo's own body was his own.

"Hmm, you shouldn't treat your body too harshly like this..."

Not only does it taste better, the probability of making a mistake increases when it goes into practice.

But the goblin is too strong.

On the subject of goblins.

Looking back, when Hyunmoo was at level 7, Naked Butterfly was at level 14. And now Hyunmoo is at level 15, while Goblin is at level 20.

If you add stat correction as a perk of 'Hell's Strongest', it's no different than 20. However, dealing with goblins was still difficult enough to risk life and death.

“…No, if you think about it, is it natural for you to be dealing with an equal?”

If so, it also means that goblins are great martial arts masters. Or maybe you have amazing physical abilities beyond that.

'It might have been a surprisingly great achievement to win with the limbs intact.'

I think it would be right to view the victories we've achieved before that as a miracle.

Hyunmoo licked the wounds from the side and glanced at Lenian, who was sitting there. Lenian didn't even know his stinging eyes, and he was too busy licking the blood from his fingers. His hands started to itch like crazy.

"I hope this helps a little in the fight."

"Heng? But fairies are afraid of fighting."

It is said that the bloody man-eating elves, who are obviously a part of this infernal ecosystem, are afraid of fighting.

Hyunmoo gauged Lenian's fighting abilities, but never seemed to be weak. However, when a fight starts, it disappears like magic, and when it ends, it appears wandering around again.

'If I somehow find the use of a man-eating monster disguised as this adorable fairy, my blood stolen from me will not be wasted.'

But it didn't seem easy unless you correct your personality. If Lenian fights a goblin, it would be of great help if he could at least interfere with it.

Maybe she's better than a goblin. But on the other hand, when Lenian was able to fight aggressively, Hyunmoo himself wondered if he would be safe.

Because Lennie Ahn doesn't mind eating, but Hyunmoo was her favorite nonetheless.

'… … It might be better to aim for pacifism.'

The usefulness may one day be found separately.

"But the butler fights too harshly. Interfering is scary."

"Don't say things like that while eating goblin heads."

But what Lenian said was not wrong. In the first fight with the goblins, it was basic to fall apart in a few places.

It was the strategy itself of giving flesh and taking bones. Indeed, it was a strategy that could only be achieved with multiple lives.

In fact, the strategy of giving flesh and taking bones is crazy.

In any case, people have to live after the fight is over. If you live with a limb crippled to win just one battle, it's right to just run away. That's how smart people survive.

But Hyunmoo didn't feel bad about his method. It was a good feeling for him to shove into his body and let him know that if he tried to fuck himself, he would also fuck his opponent.

"In that sense, I have to fuck that bastard..."

The black-handed goblin who first killed Hyunmoo.

Hyunmoo hadn't met the goblin yet. The other goblins did not have black hands, so there is no misunderstanding.

That guy with only one black hand.

Hyunmoo was expecting to meet him someday.

When Hyunmoo got his hands around him, he got up and shuffled the goblin corpse.

Goblin corpses were piled up in the corner of the alley. Goblins were both experience points and supply depots.

As if they were adventurers, they carried various useful things on their backs.

Rare ornaments, weapons, poison, and even food.

There were so many rare items that I thought they would be a hit, but there was none that Hyunmoo could use. Because none of them were the right size. Even if it went back to modern times, it was difficult to sell.

No matter how much the hunters were, they couldn't sell baby equipment. Luckily, the dagger was kept at least as a spare.

Hyunmoo found something to eat in the goblin's bag. It was an emergency food for goblins. It was a little reluctant at first, but it was made quite plausible than I thought.

'It's even better than the battle food I brought.'

The cooked goblin's emergency food was better than the battle food soaked in cold water.

Thanks to this, Hyunmoo was having a good day.

Hyunmoo started muttering the goblin's emergency food and figuring out what trap to put next.

widely.

Then Hyunmoo heard footsteps behind his back. At some point, I also felt that Lenian had disappeared quickly. I'll give you a warning, damn cannibal elf.

Hyunmoo reflexively drew a dagger and swung it. But he simply avoided it. Hyunmoo was quick to distance himself for the upcoming counterattack. But the attack did not come.

The goblin completely ignored Hyunmoo and stared at the goblin corpses piled up in the corner of the alley. The corpses that rotted and collapsed in poison and started to come together.

“───.”

What did the guy mumble? Hyunmoo frowned and stared at the goblin. The guy looked like he was confused. Then Hyunmoo looked at his hand.

The unforgettable black left hand.

On the right hand, which was cut off after being hit by Hyunmoo's poison, a hook-shaped cutlery was attached to it like a prosthetic arm.Hyunmoo attacked the goblin without hesitation. The black-handed goblin, who had been staring blankly at the corpse, slowly turned his head.

Anger flared up in his empty eyes, as if someone had set fire to it. He let out a shout that the bastard didn't know what it meant. It was a scream mixed with cursing and swearing.

Hyunmoo felt he seemed to have pissed him off.

"Damn."

[You are dead.]

[Total survival time: 12 days 06 hours 58 minutes 04 seconds.]

***

[Quest occurs!]

[The quest 'The enemy is at the single wooden bridge' begins.]

[Defeat the Black Handed Goblin.]

***

"Huh, huh!"

Hyunmoo was running dead around the crossroads.

Behind him, a black-handed goblin was chasing after a glistening dagger.

From the day he was first killed by a black-handed goblin, Hyunmoo continued to be attacked indiscriminately, day after day. On the street, in the house, in the alley, he appeared and killed Hyunmoo.

'Did he even turn his head by killing his own people?'

No, looking at it, it was the goblin who killed it first and tried to kill it.

But it shouldn't come out like this. But Hyunmoo could fully understand. Because he was none other than Hyunmoo.

'Actually, our dog's life is more precious than a stranger's life.'

Because of this, Hyunmoo's survival time, who was almost slaughtered, was much shorter than before.

[The speed limit has increased.]

"God damn it!"

The goblin seemed to seek only Hyunmoo. Having never dealt with an enemy so active, Hyunmoo was bewildered.

It's not that he didn't think about fighting back to death. However, the gap between Goblin and Hyunmoo was too large.

"Bill... damn! The balance needs to be right!"

The goblin was level 20. Hyunmoo was also at level 15 and had his abilities corrected, so it was the same level. However, the black-handed goblin has shown a different level of skill than other goblins so far.

It looks like he's crazy about revenge, but the guy who's already fought Hyunmoo wasn't vigilant at all.

'101 laps.'

I was just running on a block with a circumference of about 500m. Of course, his mouth smells sweet and his legs hurt like bursting, but Hyunmoo couldn't believe he was running like this.

He ran almost 50 km non-stop. No athlete can run with full power for distances longer than a marathon.

'Of course, thanks to the ability.'

I don't know if there is a part of the ability that corrects the lung capacity. Because the stats are not displayed.

However, it also seemed to have increased lung capacity. Hyunmoo thought inwardly that it was because of the fine dust. I heard the goblin screaming annoyedly from behind.

If you look at it, it means that he also ran 101 laps at a sprint, so it can be said that the specs of the monsters in this world are crazy. But in this state, he could only be beaten. He had to find a solution.

Maybe just hiding right away is the answer. If the black-handed goblin didn't have the ghost-like talent to play the hide-and-seek tag, he might just have done it. But already Hyunmoo himself had a hard time accepting it.

Hate only breeds hate. Forgiveness was the true path to victory.

With that said, Hyunmoo was always ready to lose. I am confident that I can yield that good victory to the enemy at any time.

He does not forget his grudges and leaves no traces of his remorse, and even if he loses himself, he must have the blood of the opponent he fucked with.

Hyunmoo had to somehow find a way to kill that one-armed goblin.

Before I go crazy because it's too embarrassing.
