The 100th Regression of the Max-Level Player

Chapter 125: The Prophet's Request (2)

I wanted to ask Mr. Ma to clean up more trash.

What do you mean? Could it be?

Yes. Exactly the kind of trash youre thinking of. Theres this place I know that is overflowing with trash. I desperately need Mr. Mas help.

Ryu Min was referring to Ma Kyung-rok as the cleaner.

No one else was more suitable for cleaning that darkness from this world.

Have you heard of Player Have?

Yes. Isnt it a cafe that only players can join?

You know it. But you havent thought about joining?

Im not interested in online gatherings. Even if I joined, I wouldnt have time to meet offline. But why suddenly bring up the cafe?

Actually, if you look closely, this cafe is crawling with murderers.

Excuse me?

Ryu Min grinned and went on to explain in detail.

About the cafs murder interviews and how they ensnare players, among other things.

Information that could not be known without joining firsthand.

Such a cafe plagued with vermin.

Disgust appeared on Ma Kyung-roks face.

He looked as if he wanted to kill those filthy beings right then and there.

But how did you come to know all this, Prophet? You didnt join, did you?

Ma Kyung-rok was not only skeptical about Ryu Min joining them but also suspected beyond that.

Certainly, it was information that usually only high-ranking members could know.

Do not worry. I have never joined. I happened to see the future of a high-ranking player there and learned about it.

Ah. If thats the case

Suspicion faded from Ma Kyung-roks eyes.

To summarize your words, Prophet, all players who joined the Player Haven cafe passed the murder interview and should all be considered trash that needs to be cleaned. And youre asking me to take care of them now.

Thats correct. Although the murder interview has been completely abolished with the change of the executive team, all existing members have been involved in or abetted murder. Considering both the present and the future, its a group that cannot be ignored.

Do you have a reason for not reporting them and instead entrusting this to me?

Even if reported, it would realistically be impossible to prosecute. Most of the evidence has been destroyed, and since they are players, its not easy to confine them through force.

Thats true.

Thats why I need Mr. Mas help. Theres nothing better than killing people to accumulate dark magic for the Dark Knight class, right?

Ma Kyung-roks eyes widened in surprise.

Youre well aware of my job too.

Of course. Seeing prophecies allows me to learn various information.

Ma Kyung-rok nodded and asked again for confirmation.

Specifically, what do you want me to do?

Kill all the trash of Player Haven. If we lure them to a quiet place, Mr. Ma can go there, relieve some stress, and gain dark magic. It wont be possible to kill them in a day. It will take months given the number of people.

How do you plan to lure them?

If we scare them with wanted posters featuring their faces and offer to help them escape abroad, that should do it. Ive made one of their officers on our side, so there wont be a problem with manpower.

Hmm.

Ma Kyung-rok was inwardly surprised by Ryu Mins proposal, though he didnt show it.

Theres a concrete plan already?

He had somewhat thought it might be a joke.

He was prepared to laugh it off with an Ahaha if the prophet suddenly said it was a surprise.

Now I understand. The prophet is 100% serious.

If its serious, the story changes.

This is an opportunity. A chance to easily supply dark magic.

The Dark Knight job demands a lot of dark magic.

Like a foreign car thats great but expensive to fuel.

Its overwhelmingly powerful compared to other ordinary jobs, but the cost is indeed burdensome.

So, the Prophet is offering to reduce that burden?

All he had to do was add his spoon to a well-prepared meal.

An offer too tempting to refuse.

There was no reason to refuse.

Yet, Ma Kyung-rok hesitated for a bit.

There was something holding him back from readily accepting.

It was the burden of responsibility.

Not the private murders he had conducted so far, but a joint operation with the prophet.

Sharing the secret of murder added a different level of burden.

Ryu Min was not unaware of this fact.

A motive is needed.

No need for a grand motive.

Just a little push, and hell move on his own.

Ryu Min took out an item from his inventory.

Take this.

Huh? This is

Receiving something unexpectedly, Ma Kyung-rok was puzzled.

A potion of dark magic. I thought you might need it.

Ah.

Only then did Ma Kyung-rok, who saw the items options, get surprised.

It was indeed a potion meant for him.

You can consider it a bribe if you want. Im not asking you to help me for free, so dont feel too pressured.

Ah

Feeling like he received an unexpected gift.

The burden Ma Kyung-rok felt vanished at that moment.

Youve prepared a meal and even given me such a gift

It may be a meal, but its not an easy task.

Ill use it well. Prophet. Leave the trash cleaning to me.

Ma Kyung-rok and Ryu Min both smiled contentedly.

* * *

Guhhhhh

The player, gasping for breath as if dying, was tapped on the face by Ma Kyung-rok.

Is this all of it?

Guuuh.

Answer me. Dont you have anything else?

No, Ive emptied everything in my inventory

Ma Kyung-rok looked at the items laid out before him and asked again.

Are you sure?

Ye, yes. Please

The player trembled violently.

Please get rid of this monster Sob!

Dark aura, like leeches, clung to the mans lower body, slowly devouring his life force.

The pain was unbearable, but the fear of being eaten alive by a beast was greater.

Okay. A promise is a promise.

Ma Kyung-rok gathered the dark energy.

And then lifted his blade.

Ill kill you gently, as promised.

Th, thank you

Before the player could finish speaking, his head fell to the ground.

Ma Kyung-rok sheathed his sword back into the inventory.

They were going to die anyway. Taking their items wont be a problem.

A satisfied smile appeared on Ma Kyung-roks lips.

He had collected more items than expected.

Most of them were to be given to the prophet.

If youre Korean, you should have the decency to return.

Ma Kyung-rok grinned and used the trace-erasing skill.

Five corpses disappeared as if everything was a dream.
