Ken hurriedly checked the magazines he had left. And to his disappointment, even though he was wasting bullets while firing them, he had only used four magazines and still had seven of them left.
He looked at Dokja's group and waved at them before heading towards them. As he stood in front of Dokja, only one thought crossed his mind. 'He is tall.'
Ken was originally around 5 '3 foot, but after getting transmigrated here and training a hell ton, his height increased and now he is 5' 5, which he could only dream of. But he also knew one thing, and that is, Dokja is taller than he looks.
In the manhwa, Dokja, including most characters don't look their actual size because of the art. But if he remembers correctly, Dokja is supposed to be around 5 '10 or something.
He stared at Dokja for a while and tried to understand something before leaving the place. What he tried to understand was the feeling he was feeling, it was entirely not excitement, but something even better. The feeling of feeling good.
He was definitely excited to see Dokja, Gilyoung and Sangah, as his heart was beating faster and a hot feeling was running in his body. But he still felt the same fulfilling feeling he had been feeling for the past few days, just that, today it was not empty.
He had met Dokja and some others before in Chungmuro too, just that, he had only gone there to have a talk with Sooyoung. And because of Joonghyuk, he had to be careful. So he could not do much anyway. So, it could be said that this was the first actual meeting. At least in his opinion.
Ken knew where he had to go right now, it was the National palace museum of Korea, the only reason he knew it was because he saw some other kings going there.
As he stood in front of it, a notification came.
[A new hidden scenario has arrived.]
[Hidden scenario: Relic of trials.]
[Difficulty: F-A+.]
[Description: Clear a relic dungeon of your choosing.]
[Time limit: None.]
[Reward: 500-5,000 coins.]
[Penalty for failure: Death.]
[Choose the dungeon you want to enter.
One-man dungeon: The room of Nagak.
Three-man dungeon: The room of copper acupuncture men.
Five-man dungeon: Donguibogam.
Seven-man dungeon: The room of dragon jar.]
Ken didn't need to think about which dungeon he had to go to. Since it was obvious. "I will choose the one-man dungeon, the room of Nagak." Since there is only one person here.
[You will be entering the one-man dungeon.]
When Ken was being teleported, he was reminded of one thing. 'Damn, it feels like that time from the theatre dungeon.'
Just as he gets teleported, he hears a loud noise, from some kind of instrument or something. A sound from a horn.
When he looks around, he sees multiple soldiers attacking him. There were at least a few hundred of them unlike what he had expected.
"Guess the bullets will be finally gone now."
—***—
[You have completed the one-man dungeon.]
[You have been awarded 12 ancient coins for completing the dungeon.]
[You have obtained Harmony (lvl 1), as a special award.]
As Ken was teleported out while drenched in blood, he noticed that he was inside the museum. When he opened his hand, there were multiple coins in his palm.
After looking around a bit, he came across a door and a message came at the same time.
[You must use ten ancient coins to enter the hidden dungeon.]
As this came up, Ken became a bit confused, since he thought that the dungeon he cleared before was the hidden dungeon.
As he put ten coins in the ten socket the door had for the coins, the door suddenly opened. As he entered, another message came.
[You have entered The room of the north star.]
When Ken entered the room, all he could see was multiple bodies burning, and multiple dead bodies here and there in the entire room.
When he walked up to a place with multiple doors, he sat down to contemplate one thing. 'Which door should I choose?'
It was the thing he was confused about, since he can remember the Dokja and his group, Sooyoung and her avatar, and some other people had gone to one single door. But Ken didn't know which door it was.
[King's qualification.]
[1: The one worthy of the throne shall be braver than anyone else.
— The ruler's throne doesn't want a weak king. You must have at least a Black flag in order to sit on the throne.
2: He who dreams of sitting on the throne, must desire it.
— Only a limited number of kings are allowed to compete for the throne, you must remove the kings to be given that right.]
[Current number of kings: 14.]
When this message came in, Ken didn't wait and headed towards a random door. Since, 'It doesn't matter which door I go through, he will make me go to the one I need to go to anyway.'
When Ken came out of the door, it was a cave. A cave, almost like the ones in the station, since they were also made after digging dirt.
As Ken ran through the place, he finally reached the place where everyone was in. And just like he had expected, the entire place was a mess, since everyone was fighting and killing each other, specifically the kings.
But the thing Ken didn't like that much was that Joonghyuk had literally broken the ground to enter this place, while he had to go through the dungeon to enter. Though, he didn't mind, since he still had the skill for doing it.
Ken sat down near that place, since there was one thing he was enjoying. And it was Joonghyuk chasing Dokja for some reason.
Ken couldn't remember why, but for him, it must have been a bullshit reason, since early on, Joonghyuk would always try to kill Dokja.
While on the run, Dokja also stole the flag Sooyoung had, which removed her from the position of a king. As Ken checked the numbers, it fit perfectly.
[Current number of kings: 5.]
He could both see and hear the dokkaebi saying things about having the number needed and something.
[The qualified kings will be transported to the last stage.]
As a sudden beam of light covers him and the remaining kings, all of them are transported to another place.
[The Final king's qualification has begun.]
[King's qualification.]
[1: The one worthy of the throne shall be braver than anyone else.
— The ruler's throne doesn't want a weak king. You must have at least a Black flag in order to sit on the throne.
2: He who dreams of sitting on the throne, must desire it.
— Only a limited number of kings are allowed to compete for the throne, you must remove the kings to be given that right.
3: The one king must be able to stand on his own.
— The king worthy of the ruler's throne can prove his worth with their body alone.]
[All kings can no longer receive the support of their constellation.]
[The items that affect your stat will be restricted.]
[The use of all skills, stigmas and special items will be restricted.]
[The overall stats of all kings will be reduced to 10/10/10/10/10.]
[The Final king's qualification will continue until one king is left standing.]
When Ken looked around himself, Joonghyuk, the king of beauty, and a bald man with a weird monk type robe had been transported. Leaving only Dokja outside of the dome.
Ken had forgotten the reason why Dokja is outside, but that's not important. He knew that Dokja would come back anyway. The problem right now was his weight.
Which is why he simply started to take off the wrist and ankle weights, then his weight vest. It was a bit of a problem, since he had to take his upper part clothes off entirely, which had actually embarrassed the king of beauty for some reason. Even though he should be the one embarrassed.
'... Women.' That was the only thing he could think of.
When he looked at the side, as he expected, the only reason Joonghyuk had still not come for him is because he was busy beating up the bald guy.
"Guess every bald man is not saitama."
