All Stat Slayer

Chapter 31: (2): Season 1: Preparation



Hyun-seok trembled his head.

Just thinking about that day makes him nervous. It was a challenging day to handle both women, despite Cyclops being Cyclops. Just when the peace seemed to settle, Min-seo came running and wailed loudly. Whether there was a contagious effect in her crying, peace also burst into tears, and Hyun-seok had to exhaust himself to comfort the two. No matter how familiar Hyun-seok was with women, he didn’t have the ability to calm down two women who were crying so sorrowfully.

Cyclops was a creature that falls under the category of ‘impossible accomplishments,’ a bug-level monster that far surpasses the specifications of the normal mode…

Experts are conducting research and investigation to determine the value of the Red stone, but the exact value has not been measured…

The theoretical value predicts that Redstone can generate enough power to cover Seoul’s daily electricity consumption, but considering the precedent of Greenstone, it is uncertain how much error there may be…

After slaying the monster Cyclops, which exceeded the specifications of an impossible accomplishment, Redstone appeared. It was a great achievement for the 80 slayers who formed the task force, but what followed was a bit problematic. Fortunately, Cyclops didn’t drop any items. If it had dropped items, it would have been difficult to determine how to distribute them. The item obtained after slaying Cyclops was a single Redstone.

The exact value of Redstone is unknown, but it seemed to be an item with considerable value as the government collected it under the Union’s guarantee.

Park Sung-hyung provided 100 million won from the Union to the slayers who participated in the slaying, excluding the 80 members of the task force—approximately 10 supporting and healing slayers. It was both a compensation for their help, as they risked their lives, and a policy to encourage other slayers.

Park Sung-hyung also gathered the 80 members and had a conversation with them. To summarize his words:

“The current negotiations with the government regarding the price of Redstone are underway. If we negotiate quickly, we can get a lower price, but if we take our time, we can get a higher price. What do you think is better?”

Hyun-seok asked.

“Brother, you took the 100 million won that was announced to be given by the Union to the supporting and healing slayers from your own pocket, didn’t you?”

“Yes, that’s right.”

People didn’t know, but the 100 million won given to the supporting and healing slayers, excluding the 80 members, was from Sung-hyung’s own pocket, despite being announced as provided by the Union.

‘It’s not a small amount even if it’s 100 million won.’

Since the number exceeded ten, it easily exceeded 100 million won. And he also paid 150 million won each to the three individuals, totaling 450 million won. It should be noted that all payments were made in cash.

‘He really seems to be a wealthy person.’

Aside from being wealthy, he knows how to use money. Not just material things, but rather intangible things. Hyun-seok felt that Sung-hyung knew how to value intangible things and how to utilize them.

Hyun-seok glanced at Sung-hyung. As a top-tier Korean slayer, he would be considered wealthy. However, if he were just an ordinary slayer, he wouldn’t be rich enough to casually spend a few hundred million won. To reach that level, he would need hundreds of Greenstones like Hyun-seok. However, considering that Hyun-seok possessed almost all the items from previous slayings, it was likely that he was rich from the beginning.

‘Come to think of it, he prevented the sale of the Monster Detector before.’

Sori Incorporated is already a global company. They developed the Smart Encyclopedia and released it on the market, which received an explosive response from slayers and sold worldwide. However, the ‘Monster Detector,’ a device that allows you to roughly locate specific monsters, which was released by that company, was said to have been blocked by Sung-hyung and failed. Setting aside his true identity, it was undeniable that he was remarkable.

‘Anyway, he’s an impressive person.’

So, since that day, the Korean Union started engaging in extensive negotiations with the government. The top-tier Korean slayers of the Union are now irreplaceable. And those top-tier slayers have more grievances with the government than other slayers. They have to pay to participate in slaying and pay taxes for slaying. Moreover, while suppressing the price of Greenstone, they impose double taxes. It’s a frustrating situation.

However, the situation has now changed. Slayers can now raise their voices. Moreover, Cyclops was a creature that fell under the category of ‘impossible accomplishments.’

Achievements are difficult because they are achievements. But ‘impossible accomplishments’ are achievements that have been judged as impossible. Naturally. According to the specifications of the normal mode, it was a genius-level disaster-like thing that should never have been slayed. But they succeeded in slaying it because there was Hyun-seok, an ‘impossible being’ capable of achieving impossible accomplishments.

When it was revealed that Cyclops was a monster that fell under the category of ‘impossible accomplishments,’ tension began to rise worldwide. In general, even if something is ‘easy’ or ‘slightly difficult,’ most people have to risk their lives. But this was not ‘difficult,’ ‘very difficult,’ or ‘extremely difficult.’ It was completely ‘impossible.’ There was even the first realization that there are impossible accomplishments among achievements.

Some of the top-tier slayers, including the team leaders of the vanguard team, were able to grasp Hyun-seok’s abilities to some extent. Among them, three of them contacted Hyun-seok separately, bought drinks, and came to greet him. It wasn’t something heavy that could be considered a request or bribery, but they seemed to want to have a face-to-face interaction with Hyun-seok. Among those three,

‘Yeon-su was interesting.’

He was the same age as Hyun-seok. He was skilled enough to lead the vanguard team, and he had a large build and a rugged face, but he had a surprisingly innocent and naive side. He said he didn’t usually do this, but his wife forced him to come, and he honestly opened up while hesitating and blushing, which was amusing.

‘What should I do if Cyclops appears somewhere else?’

Hyun-seok now knows for sure. Without him, Cyclops is an unslayable creature. It’s not just a random impossible-grade achievement. If Cyclops appeared in Korea, the probability of Cyclops appearing elsewhere would be very high.

In fact, a while later, Cyclops appeared in the California Great Plains in the United States, and fortunately, it was in the plains, so the United States successfully hunted Cyclops by mobilizing powerful weapons. It wasn’t a limited situation like in a city. Thanks to that, they were able to concentrate firepower. The exact data didn’t come out, but the cost of hunting a single Cyclops exceeded 200 billion won.

What’s unfortunate is that the individual hunted with concentrated firepower didn’t drop any items.

What’s more interesting is that after the United States successfully hunted Cyclops, there were rumors that Cyclops was not as strong as expected. There were rumors that Korea deliberately exaggerated and spread the word as an advertisement. These rumors started circulating among Japanese netizens. The voices mocking Korea became louder. They said that Korea made a fuss and acted as if they were in danger, even though it was unnecessary when the United States easily -from the perspective of netizens- slayed Cyclops.

Let’s look at some of the general reactions:

– Hahaha, that’s just how those Korean kids are.

– The 80-person Vanguard team? Hahaha, hilarious.

– Their military strength is such a joke that they can’t get out of being a backward country.

Of course, there were also comments like ‘We should be cautious and prepared because it could happen to us too’ and ‘Korea’s military strength is no less than Japan’s,’ but still, there were quite a few responses mocking Korea.

In contrast, Yamamoto, the Union Chief of Hedeyas in Japan, was uneasy.

‘I don’t want to admit it, but Korea’s slaying level overwhelms Japan’s. Especially that man is a person we must never provoke. We don’t know when he might be a great help to us. And… even if they are classified as the same monster, Korean monsters are much stronger than ours. Can we… defeat them?’

If it appeared in Korea, the probability of it appearing elsewhere was high. Regardless of the mockery of Korea on the internet, anyone who has thoughts or even a slight interest in slaying knows how high Korea’s slaying level is.

And Yamamoto’s concerns turned out to be a reality, not a groundless fear.

– Appearance of Cyclops. Over 70 slayers were killed.

– Successive reckless slaying. More deaths! Over 140 slayers were killed!

– Near the Fukushima Nuclear Power Plant. Bombing is impossible!

– The Japanese government. Extremely high alert. How will Japan overcome this crisis?
