The 100th Regression of the Max-Level Player

Chapter 120: 8th Round Results (1)

As soon as the title The Last Time Regressor appeared above Ryu Mins head, the Archbishops gaze changed.

He didnt look up, so it wasnt the title he saw.

It was something he felt instinctively.

Indeed, theres a reaction.

Is it because hes really an NPC?

When titles change, those from the other worlds instinctively know.

Who the person is and what kind of reputation they hold.

It feels as if that setting applies to the worldview.

What is your name?

The name isnt important. Who I am is what matters.

Did you really regress through time?

Ryu Min nodded.

There was no need to say more.

The Archbishop already sees me as a transcendental being who traverses time.

There was no need to read his thoughts.

The change in his tone made it clear.

Haha, to think that a Time Regressor really exists. Indeed, one lives and learns. Now I understand how you possess such great power.

The Archbishop shook his head with a glint in his eyes.

Then, are you an emissary of Chronos?

Ryu Min nodded again.

There was no reason to deny being seen as a divine emissary.

The Archbishop took Ryu Mins words as gospel truth.

The title of The Last Time Regressor alone was proof enough of his transcendent status.

Ah, emissary of Chronos, meeting you is the fortune of my lifetime.

That it is.

Ryu Min said, with a somewhat blunt expression.

Seeing this, the Archbishops mind raced.

Did I say something wrong?

As an Archbishop serving a deity, how should one behave upon meeting a divine emissary?

Surely its important to make a good impression.

Having thought this far, the Archbishop smiled slyly.

I have a tribute to offer you.

He pulled something out of his robes.

As soon as Ryu Min accepted it, a message appeared.

[You have received The Rune Fragment of Future as a reward from the Grand Archbishop Laver.]

[You use The Rune Fragment of Future.]

[The rune automatically engraves itself onto the players body!]

A smile formed on Ryu Mins lips upon obtaining what he wanted.

How is it? A fitting item for a divine emissary, wouldnt you say?

Indeed. I am satisfied.

Ryu Min smiled, and an information window appeared before him.

[The Rune of Future]

Effect: Sees the future of the target 7 seconds ahead. The future can change from time to time.

Ryu Min immediately saw the Archbishops future.

In 7 seconds, the Archbishop was already a cold corpse.

It was a necessary action for Ryu Mins survival.

How is it?

I am satisfied. As a reward, I shall send you back to the gods.

Really?

Ryu Min nodded at the Archbishop, who was delighted, then moved his hand.

He twisted the Archbishops head.

Crack-

The neck broke, killing him.

I bear no ill will.

Whether he was a real person from another world or a created NPC, he had to kill him to prevent his own demise.

Ryu Min left the dead Archbishop sitting in the carriage and stepped outside.

Did you finish talking?

At the Captain of the Guards question, Ryu Min closed the door of the carriage and nodded.

Yes. The Archbishop said he needs to think, so we shouldnt disturb him.

The Archbishop said that?

The Captain of the Guard accepted the answer without suspicion and turned away.

After obtaining what he wanted, the 26th wave began.

Ryu Min occasionally looked back at the Archbishops carriage while fighting off monsters.

It was to make sure no one entered it.

I must not let anyone discover that Ive killed the Archbishop until the 30th wave.

Ryu Mins goal was to assassinate all the otherworlders in the carriages.

Since there was one NPC per carriage, he had to kill a total of 50 people.

Including the Captain of the Guard and the Archbishop, that makes 52.

Since he had already killed the Archbishop, he needed to kill the rest as quickly and efficiently as possible.

Ill move when the last 30th wave begins.

As he waited, the 30th wave started.

Its a Minotaur! Block it!

These tough bastards! They never get tired.

10 minutes left! Just a bit more!

The players encouraged each other, squeezing out their last bit of strength.

From the original 1,202, their numbers had dropped to around 1,000 due to the difficulty level.

It wasnt surprising to have deaths.

While they fought desperately, Ryu Min assassinated the NPCs.

Crack-

Five.

Crack-

Twenty.

Crack-

Forty-two.

He moved silently from carriage to carriage, taking the lives of the NPCs without a sound.

Thanks to his stealthy movements and the players being too occupied with the monster fight, no one noticed.

Crack-

That makes fifty.

And the last remaining Captain of the Guard.

Ryu Min approached him stealthily from behind and twisted his neck.

Crack-!

All the otherworlders were dead.

At that moment.

[The Holy Empires reputation towards the Last Time Regressor has dropped from Neutral to Hostile.]

The temples reputation turned hostile.

But on the flip side, there was also good news.

[You have killed all the human guilds otherworlders.]

[You have completed the quest to hinder the guild from reaching its destination.]

[Upon tallying the results, quest success rewards will be given.]

[Stat decrease debuffs will be removed.]

[You will return to the waiting area shortly.]
