I Alone Resurrect Chapter 144

I Alone Resurrect Chapter 144

Princess of another world (1)

A-rank dungeon ‘Castle of Karinstein’.

“How about turning back even now?”

Brak’s brow furrowed at the vice guild master’s words.

“You want us to go back without any achievements?”

“Even if we continue, there’s no guarantee we’ll reach the normal core.”

“Is there a guarantee we’ll survive if we go back the way we came?”

“At least the chances of survival would be higher than reaching the core.”

It had already been a week since Brak’s guild ‘Harika Kahraman’ entered the dungeon.

In that time, a third of the guild members had died or been severely injured, unable to fight.

“Haa… Give me a moment. Just a moment to think.”

Sighing, Brak sat down on a rock.

‘Where did it go wrong…’

He was Turkey’s finest ability user.

Naturally, the guild he led was Turkey’s best guild.

They had cleared countless B-rank dungeons until now.

‘I was too arrogant.’

It’s not like he had rushed into the dungeon so hastily himself.

After all, it was a dungeon of a new difficulty that hadn’t existed before.

Of course, they should have spent a long time exploring and investigating before attempting to clear it.

But the situation didn’t allow for that.

‘What good are money and fame…’

Harika Kahraman. It means great hero.

His guild receives sponsorship from Turkey’s largest corporation.

Government support is the same.

-Right now! You must enter the dungeon right now to reassure the citizens!

-Listen, Brak. This is an opportunity. With the world’s attention focused on us now, if you go in and clear the dungeon, you’ll become the world’s top guild!

-You know very well how much money we’ve invested in your guild so far. And now, it’s time to show your true worth.

The day the dungeon appeared in Izmir.

From that moment, he received hundreds of emails and phone calls over 24 hours.

Everyone was pressuring him.

-Enter the dungeon immediately!

-Aren’t you great heroes, heroes of the people? Hundreds of thousands living in Izmir are anxious.

Recalling that situation made his anger rise.

‘Those bastards were just busy looking out for their own interests while speaking pretty words.’

In fact, there’s no guarantee that clearing this dungeon will normalize Izmir.

Even after the dungeon is cleared, remnants of magical energy remain, making it impossible to use electronic devices in Izmir.

That was the consensus of all experts.

And those in high positions knew this fact very well.

That Izmir is now irreversible.

Nevertheless, they pushed him into this hell.

Because they had to show the people they were doing something.

“Guild Master. What will you do?”

At that moment, the vice guild master broke Brak from his thoughts.

“The guild members are getting anxious.”

“Sorry. I got lost in thought.”

“Are we going back…?”

At the vice guild master’s words, Brak stood up and looked around.

He saw guild members who had become utterly exhausted in just a week.

Their trembling eyes were directed at him.

“Everyone, attention!”

Brak shouted loudly.

“We have two paths before us now. One is to turn back as we are. The other is to push forward towards the core.”

Guild members bit their lips at Brak’s words.

“If we go back, probably more than half of us will survive. But our guild will be finished. And hundreds of thousands of citizens living in Izmir will be in danger.”

“…”

“If we move forward, we might all die. But! If we succeed in clearing it, we return as true heroes.”

Harika Kahraman (harika kahraman).

Great hero.

That was the dream of all guild members.

“I’ll leave the choice to you. We’ll hold a secret vote and decide based on which option gets more votes. Any objections?”

Brak looked around.

No one raised any objections.

“Alright. Let’s proceed with the voting.”

“With this, I’ll end today’s educational video.”

At Kang Hyeon’s words, the chat window updated rapidly.

-Aw, it’s over already? Do a bit more.

-There was talk about a meteor strike in Taehan City last time. Can you spill some details?

-For real, there’s not much info on the Taehan incident and I’m so curious.

-Don’t go. You came after so long, stay a bit longer.

Reading the rapidly scrolling chat, Kang Hyeon wore a thoughtful expression.

“Many of you are asking about what happened in Taehan City.”

-Oh? Are we finally getting the secret revealed here?

-Ooh, glad I watched today’s stream.

-Sweet.

The Taehan City incident is shrouded in mystery.

As it seemed information about it would be revealed, people became excited.

Watching the intense reactions, Kang Hyeon grinned.

“If you’re curious, 500 won.”

-Wow, that joke is so stale.

-Are you crazy, who uses 500 won these days?

-Old man… Please stop doing this…

-Ptui!

Chuckling while looking at the chat window, Kang Hyeon suddenly turned serious.

-Is your head at orc level? Making such a joke here.

“Who’s the bastard who just made that orc joke. You better watch out on your way home tonight.”

Watching Kang Hyeon bicker with viewers, Yoon Na-rae sighed.

“Sigh… This is why his nickname is human orc.”

“Been a while since you got hit, huh?”

“People! Look here! A giant orc is threatening a beautiful girl! Quickly report him!”

“You’re dead if I catch you!”

Hurriedly ending the broadcast, Kang Hyeon ran like mad towards Yoon Na-rae.

“Kyaaak! It’s an orc, an orc!”

Quickly catching Yoon Na-rae, Kang Hyeon put her in a headlock and gave her a noogie.

“Aaack! I’m sorry. Spare me!”

Watching this scene, An Yu-seong fell into thought.

“We should add an orc edition to the figurines.”

And so, another peaceful day was passing as usual.

At that moment.

“Huh?”

“What’s this?”

“Just now, something…”

Kang Hyeon and his companions all stopped.

“Did you all feel that?”

Shin Seong-a asked with a serious face.

“It seems to be nearby…”

“I think it’s that way.”

The reason they stopped was because of magical energy.

They felt an enormous wave of magical energy from not too far away.

“What kind of madman is it?”

“We should go check quickly.”

Everyone’s expressions had lost their smiles.

Unless someone had unleashed a massive spell in the middle of the city, this wave of magical energy couldn’t be explained.

Led by Kang Hyeon, the group quickly moved towards the source of the magic.

“Seems like something did happen.”

The magical energy didn’t feel as strong as it did initially.

But they could sense that there were quite powerful ability users at their destination.

“It’s here.”

They finally arrived at a school.

Since it was a weekday, there were surely many students present.

“What bastards are fighting at a school!”

The group headed straight for the playground where they sensed the magical energy.

“It’s those guys.”

The ones who finally revealed themselves were three men and women.

“Don’t you know you shouldn’t mess with kids, you…”

Kang Hyeon stopped mid-sentence.

He wasn’t the only one surprised.

The rest of the group also had dumbfounded expressions at the unexpected situation.

“Yoon Na-rae. Do you have a club meeting today by any chance?”

At Kang Hyeon’s question, Yoon Na-rae frowned.

“What nonsense are you saying?”

“They look exactly like you.”

Kang Hyeon’s words were directed at the three who looked like they were at a cosplay gathering.

Two groups were facing each other.

On one side were people wearing black leather jackets with “Badass” written on them.

On the other side were people dressed in outfits rarely seen in modern times, as if they had come from a fantasy world.

“Uh, um… Hi?”

Kang Hyeon didn’t know what to say.

‘Are they from some European guild…’

They weren’t Asian, for sure.

But they looked a bit different from Westerners too.

‘So, one knight, one mage, and the last one is a priest…?’

Kang Hyeon pondered as he looked at the three’s attire.

“bastio si osleno?”

At that moment, the woman in the elaborate robe at the front of their group spoke.

While everyone tilted their heads at the unfamiliar language they had never heard before,

“Are you the person in charge here?”

Only Kang Hyeon could understand her words.

“In charge… That’s not wrong, but… Who are you?”

At Kang Hyeon’s words, the woman bowed elegantly.

“I’m Olien from the Kingdom of Heigran.”

“I’m Kang Hyeon.”

Kang Hyeon also bowed his head awkwardly in greeting.

“Kang Hyeon, what is that woman saying?”

“She says she’s a representative from some kingdom.”

“A kingdom…?”

“Yeah, that’s what she said…”

At Kang Hyeon’s words, his companions once again wore expressions of incomprehension.

“Is it somewhere like England?”

“I don’t know, man.”

Watching this, the woman, Olien, smiled.

“It seems the person I’m speaking with has learned translation magic. Are you perhaps a noble of this place?”

The word ‘noble’ made Kang Hyeon’s brow furrow again.

“Umm, I’m not a noble…”

“Oh my, then are you a commoner mage?”

“I’m not a mage either…”

It was then.

The woman wearing a sword behind Olien suddenly drew her blade.

“A lowly commoner dares to claim to be in charge and mock us! Call the lord of this place immediately and show proper respect. This is Olien Heisus, princess of the Kingdom of Heigran.”

At the woman’s words, a vein popped on Kang Hyeon’s forehead.

“Bro, what’s she saying?”

“She’s saying lowly commoner bastards should quickly show proper respect, what do you think?”

Kang Hyeon grinned fiercely and continued.

“Seems like they’ve replaced their brains with accessories while cosplaying.”

At Kang Hyeon’s words, Olien’s brow also furrowed.

“What do you mean by cosplay…? And heads becoming accessories?”

“It means you look pretty, like someone with flowers in their hair.”

“Oh my! Thank you!”

It was a cauldron of confusion.

Olien with her fresh smile.

The knight who seemed angry.

The mage who seemed to have no thoughts at all.

Kang Hyeon had no idea how to deal with them.

“You commoner there. I told you to show respect to the princess.”

It was then.

The knight’s sword moved like lightning and touched Kang Hyeon’s nape.

Kang Hyeon didn’t even blink.

“I prefer gender equality, so I don’t discriminate when I beat people up. So if you don’t want to die, you’d better put that away.”

“You bastard, still…!”

As it seemed a fight would break out between the two, Olien stepped forward.

“Garnet. Stop it. Our purpose is only to explore this place. We should avoid unnecessary fights. Kang Hyeon, I apologize on her behalf.”

“No! Princess, why should you apologize to these people!”

“Yeah, yeah. Garnet, was it? You shouldn’t point this around carelessly. You could cause big trouble.”

Kang Hyeon reached out and grabbed the sword Garnet had pointed.

‘How dare this bastard!’

Completely disregarding her, the knight Garnet was furious to the tips of her hair.

‘I’ll teach him a lesson.’

As she naturally pulled out her sword, she intended to slash his wrist.

There was the excellent mage Galiu by her side anyway, so when he writhed in pain begging for help, healing his wrist would be no problem.

Having decided this, Garnet tried to swing her sword.

“Uh, uh…?”

“Come on. Put this away. If you don’t want to die.”

Garnet’s face was colored with shock.

The sword didn’t budge at all.

Kang Hyeon was clearly grasping the blade with his bare hand.

But far from being careful, he took the sword from Garnet with a rough hand.

‘W-why!?’

Garnet tried desperately to resist, but it was an irresistible force.

In the end, Garnet helplessly lost her sword to Kang Hyeon.

“Ooh, this sword seems pretty decent.”

Knight Garnet trembled with anger, and Olien looked at Garnet with a strange expression.

“Garnet? Why did you give up your sword…?”

To a knight, a sword is like their life.

She had told her to stop fighting, but she hadn’t ordered her to give up her sword.

Garnet didn’t know how to explain.

“T-that is…”

Just as Garnet’s face was turning bright red and about to burst,

“Here. I’ll give it back.”

Kang Hyeon returned the sword to Garnet.

“…”

Garnet couldn’t even raise her head properly due to the humiliation.

Olien felt something was strange about the situation, but decided not to make a bigger issue of it.

That wasn’t what was important right now.

“Kang Hyeon. If it’s alright, could you arrange for me to meet the king of this country?”

At Olien’s words, Kang Hyeon scratched his head.

“Um, we don’t have anything like that here.”

“What?”
