Hoarding in Hell Novel

"A traitor? A traitor?"

Kawaro chuckled and laughed. He took off the gloves on Hyunmoo's hands and threw them on the floor.

Hyunmoo only left a few tooth marks on the white gloves he wore.

"Did you really fall from the sky? If anyone hears it, you'll think bad humans are on the side of the monsters and attacking the remaining humans. You're a traitor, but it's a fresh anchovy I've heard in a really long time."

Hyunmoo said what Kawaro was talking about. So, Kawarona and the family of the stars didn't attack humans? So, what are these countless zombies, ghouls and ghasts?

These were the monsters themselves that appeared in the dungeon and attacked humans.

Standing on the same side with those monsters was an undeniable human enemy.

Even if there was no savior complex to save mankind, he was an unwelcome opponent.

However, Kawaro didn't seem willing to give a long katabuta explanation. His expression turned cold.

"If you don't reach the Starving Star, I don't think there's any reason to keep him alive."

A life that made the nape of my neck cool passed by. Hyunmoo felt death.

That was the moment.

[The monster star, Augusto, is watching you.]

Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh!

A scream echoed through the sky. The moment the screams of unknown death and fear swept through the area, the scattered corpses were thrown into fragments, and the kiln became a mess and flew away.

Kawaro was lying flat on his face toward Hyunmoo with a face that had changed from pale to blue. Hyunmoo didn't know what had happened to the sudden situation.

"I had no intention of breaking the rules. I've been excited for a long time..."

Hyunmoo knew that Kawaro was talking to something behind his back and not himself. But it was just an empty street with no one behind it. I don't know what was lurking beyond that void, but there was something that made even Kawaro, a member of Yogulem's family, immobile.

Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh!

Despite Kawaro's apology, a lively scream swept through again. Kawaro panicked and immediately turned his back and started running without saying anything to Hyunmoo. The monsters in the procession that had arrived with him were also busy chasing after them.

In an instant, Kawaro's party disappeared, and the street became quiet again. Hyunmoo was worried that the screaming creature might come this way, but nothing happened. The screams seemed to have driven away even the remaining monsters.

It was back to a peaceful crossroads as usual.

So many things happened and disappeared before my eyes, so it was hard to understand exactly what was what. But one thing was certain.

Monsters in a procession more powerful than ghasts. Chorongmaw seemed stronger than the monsters in the procession. Kawaro, who rode on the back of the lanternmaw. And the mysterious existence that made even that Kawaro run away in fear with two screams.

"...how many monsters are there in this world?"

Overcoming this ordeal, he was confident in his skills to some extent. But this time, I felt deeply.Hyunmoo is still only one or two steps up from the bottom of the food chain.

***

Hyunmoo returned to the tattered shelter. In the shelter, Lenian was sitting with a grassy appearance. As soon as Hyunmoo entered, Lenian hid behind the chair with a startled expression.

"Butler? Are you out of your mind?"

"Seeing you there, I'm sure you're safe now."

"I went to the butler a while ago. After the battle was over. But, he seemed to be in a bad condition."

Lennie Ann lifted his own calf and looked up. His teeth marks were clearly visible. Hyunmoo groaned inwardly. He fought in a state of a little madness at the end of the battle, but it seems that he ran into Lenian in the meantime.

“It’s okay. Even a fairy ate a lot of butlers.”

"You mean blood, right?"

"Yes."

Hyunmoo barely leaned back on the chair. His whole body trembled. He had already used the perk of the last 1st person title, and there were no potions left. Because he fought while drinking like water.

"Ah, quest."

He had completely forgotten the quest success reward. Obviously, the reward would have increased because of the ordeal. Again, there was a success reward in the inventory. But this time, it wasn't a gold box, it was a strange thing called Yogulem's gift box.

"I hope this isn't a random box either."

Now, please, I wish I could choose something that has been confirmed.

Hyunmoo took out the gift box and opened it. Only one card came out this time. But for the first time in my life, it was platinum. Hyunmoo was bewildered by the appearance of a platinum card that was neither a silver nor a gold card.

Soon, the card disappeared with a brilliant light, and a thin and plain sword appeared instead.

It was a sword made entirely from the handle to the blade, with a soft sky blue color. It was surprisingly modest, so I didn't think there was anything there.

Fortunately, Hyunmoo now had an item that would surely judge the true value before he complained about his appearance. Hyunmoo took out Admiral Len's wide one-piece glasses.

[Tam (general/genuine)]

[Classification: Sword]

[Physical Attack: Low, Magic Attack: Low, Penetration: Low]

[Special Ability: Eats up a sacrificed weapon and gains the ability of that weapon.]

[Note: A weapon known to have been forged by Aldi Maharo, a clan of Yogulem, a starving star. No one knows Tom's original form because he eats weapons and changes his form. If we trace the powerful people who suddenly appeared in history and wielded power, traces presumed to be Tams were found.]

"……Normal?"

Hyunmoo read the explanation again with a complicated feeling. After reading through it several times, it didn't seem like a deceptive item suitable for a platinum card. However, it was a growth weapon and the comments left by Admiral Ren left room for room.

It is the weapon of those in power who wielded dominance.

This means that it is not an ordinary weapon.

Weapons that eat weapons. It was also a weapon suitable for Yogulem. As long as it was a gift from Yogulem, Hyunmoo had no choice but to expect that its growth limit would be infinite.

"Lenian, how does this look?"

"Yeah... it looks good."

It would be nice if Lenian liked it. Hyunmoo pulled a bleeding dagger from his waist.

It's a dagger that I really cherish, but if you absorb a weapon and have that ability anyway, you don't need to bother carrying various weapons.

"You're going to try, what?"

Hyunmoo thought about how to absorb the weapon, then gently scratched each other's blades.

At the moment when I wanted to see a slight spark, Tam's blade burst and swallowed the bloody dagger. It looked like a monster, so Hyunmoo was unwittingly terrified and almost dropped his sword.

The bloody dagger disappeared without a trace. Instead, Tom's appearance had changed slightly. His blade was slightly shortened, and there was a hole in the middle like a bleeding dagger.

[Tam (legendary/genuine)]

[Classification: Sword]

[Physical attack: medium low, Magic attack: medium low, Penetration: low]

[Special Ability: Eats up a sacrificed weapon and gains the ability of that weapon. It has the ability to drain body fluids, and when sending bodily fluids to an ally, it causes a healing effect, and sending bodily fluids to enemies inflicts damage.]

[Absorbed Weapon: Blood Dagger]

… … After absorbing one of them, it was upgraded to Legendary. In addition, the ability was absorbed wonderfully.

Hyunmoo's heart began to race. He looked at Lenian with a satisfied expression.

"Do I already like this?"

"Butlers like it if the grade is high."

That was an undeniable fact.

***

Instead of going right back, Hyunmoo stopped by the gym again.

The desk on which the skeleton had been lying was now clean, but the strange atmosphere was still there.

Hyunmoo thought that this might be one of the last spaces in which mankind resisted. But as he passed this ordeal, his mood became complicated.

Hungry people who rushed to covet their flesh while remaining intellect as human beings. And the human, Kawaro, who used to summon monsters above the heads of mighty monsters.

Hyunmoo couldn't even guess what Baek Gol had to fight with, what he was conflicted with, and how he met his end.

'… … Is my appearance very different?'

Hyunmoo also plays Kirson and has a cannibal fairy, Rhenian, as his pet.

Although he himself was a monster turned human, he mercilessly killed the hungry and ate the flesh. Looking back, it looked like a monster.

Hyunmoo gave a clear answer to himself.

'Of course not, you idiot.'

Hyunmoo did it of his own will. Only with the desire to survive. He did not succumb to lust like the hungry, and he was not sympathetic by clinging to the tail of a snake like Kawaro.

Hyunmoo thought it would be so in the future.

Even if he turns into a bastard, he wants to be his own bastard.

He said let's show the bastard that he has his own pride.

Hyunmoo smiled and raised the corners of his lips.

"So, I feel like you're great somehow."

An unknown man, Baekgol, could tell just by looking at the letters he left, how much he had struggled to protect his noble ideals and humanity.

Even when he was defeated, he was saying that the cause of the defeat was the failure to preserve more morality and humanity.

He was the opposite type of Hyunmoo. But that made him more respectful.

While there are types of people who hate their peers, they are also attracted to the opposite types.

Maybe it was right after I saw a human like Kawaro, so I found this sublime human to be more attractive.

'I wish I could go back to reality and find out who this person is.'

If this is not the distant future, there is a good chance that he is one of the existing hunters.

'I wish I had some clues to infer... … .'

But I've already searched enough around this area. Then Hyunmoo suddenly remembered that there were several books in the drawer. It was a book he had left unattended to find his belongings.

Hyunmoo looked through the drawer and opened the dusty book again.

And he realized how stupid he was.

It is not only valuable items with high-grade specs. Even a single book could become an unprecedented item that could change the world.

"……Oh my gosh."

This book was a scrapbook that recorded the process from the occurrence of the dungeon to the end.

Almost all of the major events were written down, and on each chapter there were countless comments saying that this should have been done at this time and that it should have been done that way.

The weight of that paranoid regret and remorse made Hyunmoo terrified.

But at the same time, the corners of his lips rose.

“Uncle Baekgol, I will make good use of that regret.”

Even if we go to Moro, isn't it enough to save only mankind?
