Solo Resurrection

Chapter 12 – Hero in disaster (1)

Woo-ya-ya-ya~ Woo-ya-ya-ya~

An upbeat hip-hop song that doesn’t match the current situation came flowing out.

“Please, take it! Please!”

-Hello?

The call was cut off, and Kang A-hyun’s urgent voice was heard.

“Where are you? Are you okay?!”

-I’m in the company bathroom now…

“Don’t make any noise and stay put there! Got it?”

-Hey! What are you trying to do…?

Kang Hyeon quickly ended the call and ran down the stairs. In front of the villa entrance, a goblin was standing around.

“Keruk!”

“Come out! There’s no time, you bastard!”

-Bwoom!

He dodged the sword coming at him.

And he stuck a kitchen knife under the goblin’s chin.

“Ke… Ker…”

“This is a thank-you.”

Kang Hyeon took the longsword from the trembling goblin’s hand, who had a knife stuck in his head.

“Now, get lost.”

-Puck

The goblin, who couldn’t move after his sword was taken, was kicked away by Kang Hyeon, who then went out to the street.

“Kyaaaa!”

“Help me!”

-Bang! Bang!

The street was in the midst of confusion. The sound of gunshots and screams hitting Kang Hyeon’s eardrums from all directions.

‘If I run, I can get there in 10 minutes. Please stay safe until then!’

Fortunately, Kang A-hyun’s company was not too far away. Remembering the company building he had passed by with Kang A-hyun before, Kang Hyeon started running.

“Help me! Here… Cough!”

The physical abilities of goblins are not particularly outstanding. An average adult male would be able to engage in hand-to-hand combat with them.

However, to ordinary people, the green monster swinging a giant sword was nothing but a terrifying object.

“Die!”

“Keek!”

Fortunately, a few people were seen fighting the goblins with whatever could be used as a weapon.

‘Are those the people who have cleared the tutorial?’

There was even a man who pulled out a huge spear and killed a goblin, seems like someone who had cleared the second stage.

“Aaaaargh!”

At that moment, a child crying on his mother’s back was seen not far away.

Kang Hyeon’s eyes briefly hesitated.

‘Anyway, I can’t go out and save everyone now. They’ll just be a burden.’

Kang Hyeon forcibly averted his gaze and ran on.

“Keruk, Keek!”

“Keruk!”

Two goblins stood in Kang Hyeon’s way.

“Get out of the way!”

He tried to use the skill Roar of the Enraged Lion, but it still didn’t work.

-Slash! Thud.

Expecting this, Kang Hyeon swung the sword without hesitation, and the heads of the two goblins fell off.

“Hey, come help here!”

A middle-aged man watching from the window called out to Kang Hyeon, but he ignored the man and continued running towards Kang A-hyun’s company.

“Hey! Please help! You bastard!”

“Keruk! Ker…”

Seeing Kang Hyeon ignoring him and leaving, the man shouted frantically. The goblins began to gather at the sound.

“Uh… Uh? Hey, I’m sorry. Please help! Please!”

“Kurkurkur!”

-Boom!

The gathered goblins instantly smashed through the building entrance and rushed inside.

“No! Aaargh!”

Leaving behind the many screams, Kang Hyeon just kept moving forward.

Soon, a monster he had never seen before came into his sight.

[Baby Taranque]

[Adult Taranque]

Monsters resembling spiders, but their size was so enormous that even the baby was as tall as Kang Hyeon’s thigh, and the adult seemed to weigh hundreds of kilograms, almost reaching his shoulder.

‘There were three dungeons around here, right?’

Kang Hyeon guessed that this monster must have come from one of them.

“Keeeek!”

Several baby Taranque started chasing after Kang Hyeon.

“Keee…”

-Slash!

Kang Hyeon cut one of the advancing baby Taranque in half with a single stroke.

There were even more chasing behind, but he didn’t have time to deal with them individually.

‘If I fight them one by one, it’ll never end.’

An unknown sticky fluid was left on the sword that had cut the Taranque.

Kang Hyeon swung the sword in the air to try to shake off the fluid.

-Snap, Crack.

The sword suddenly broke in half.

“What’s wrong with this now?!”

In fact, the sword had been corroded and broken off due to the acidic sac inside the Taranque’s body, but Kang Hyeon, not knowing this, just cursed.

“Those goblin bastards are no help at all!”

Even the longsword in his inventory wouldn’t have broken so easily.

“Keek!”

“Keruk!”

At that moment, a little distance away, a scene of an adult Taranque fighting with a few goblins was visible.

“Are the monsters fighting each other too?”

-Sizzle

“Keeeeeek!”

Something was spewed from the Taranque’s mouth, and the goblin who was hit by it started rolling on the ground, abandoning his weapon. The face covered by the goblin’s hands was melting away.

‘There it is!’

“Keruk!”

Kang Hyeon dashed towards the fallen sword with all his might. Seeing this, the goblins let out a roar.

“Keek!”

-Bam!

Kang Hyeon kicked the small-bodied goblin who rushed at him with all his might. The one hit by the kick was instantly sent flying several meters and crashed into the adult Taranque.

“Ke… Keruk! Keruk!”

Suddenly, the Taranque impaled the goblin who had flown towards it with its sharp legs, and then tore off the goblin’s head with its massive jaws.

“You keep doing what you were doing.”

Taking the opportunity, Kang Hyeon picked up the fallen sword and continued running towards his sister’s company.

“Kerruk?”

The goblins could only stare at Kang Hyeon’s retreating back with a puzzled expression.

“Ugh, gah!”

After running crazily for 10 minutes, Kang Hyeon finally stopped in front of a large building.

‘The company must be using the 6th and 7th floors,’ he thought.

Swinging his sword, Kang Hyeon entered the building’s interior. The place was covered in blood, with bodies scattered everywhere. Occasionally, there were also the corpses of goblins, but most were human.

“Elevator!”

-Tap tap tap tap

Kang Hyeon frantically pressed the elevator button, but there was no response.

“Fuck!”

“Keeeek! Keeeek!”

At that moment, the distinctive voice of goblins was heard from the stairwell above.

“I’ll have to break through the emergency exit.”

Following the open emergency exit, Kang Hyeon saw people barricaded at the 3rd-floor entrance, confronting goblins.

“Stop them!”

“Keeek! Keeeek!”

The makeshift barricade, built with desks and lockers, was being pushed by men in suits wielding poles.

In front of them, four goblins swung their swords, trying to break through the barricade.

“Get lost, all of you!”

Emerging from behind the goblins, Kang Hyeon swung his sword, instantly decapitating one of them.

“Keeeek?!”

-Thud!

Kang Hyeon thrust his sword into the solar plexus of a stunned goblin, then kicked the one beside it, sending it flying.

“Keeek!”

The force of the kick sent the goblin crashing into the wall, head first.

“Ke, keeeeek!”

Seeing their comrades swiftly dispatched, the last remaining goblin let out a terrified scream. Kang Hyeon easily evaded the goblin’s sword swing and promptly stabbed it in the neck.

“Phew…”

Kang Hyeon stomped on the neck of the last goblin, who had fallen and hit his head against the wall, to ensure he was finished.

Just as Kang Hyeon was about to continue upstairs, holding his sword…

“Hey!”

“I’m in a hurry.”

“Can you help us?”

“Leave the sword here, and take care of yourselves.”

The woman inside the barricade flared up at Kang Hyeon’s words.

“If you’re that strong, can’t you help us? How are we supposed to handle those monsters with this?”

A vein popped on Kang Hyeon’s forehead as he approached the barricade, glaring at them with a fierce gaze.

“If you keep shouting, more of them will come. If you want to die, just keep blabbering.”

The people were instantly silenced, their eyes filled with deep terror. Seeing this, Kang Hyeon sighed and picked up the sword.

“Here, take this.”

Kang Hyeon pushed one of the goblin’s swords through the gap in the barricade.

“They’re not that tough, so if you work together, you can definitely defeat them. I’ll give you three swords, so hold out as best you can. Well, the best-case scenario is if this barricade doesn’t get breached.”

“Thank you…”

Kang Hyeon nodded at the reluctant-looking person and then dashed up the stairs.

‘I hope Kang A-hyun’s floor is also barricaded like this.’

At that moment, Kang A-hyun called Kang Hyeon.

“Hello?!”

-Where are you? Are you okay?

“I just arrived at your company.”

-You crazy bastard! Why did you come here?

Kang A-hyun was shocked to hear that Kang Hyeon had come to her company.

-Are you hurt?

“I’m fine. What floor are you on? 6th? 7th?”

-I’m on the 7th floor…

“I’m coming, so don’t move!”

After ending the call, Kang Hyeon increased his speed.

-Thump thump thump thump

The entrances on the 4th, 5th, and 6th floors were all empty. Glimpsing inside, Kang Hyeon saw numerous people lying on the ground, and the smell of blood permeated the air.

“Here it is!”

Upon finally reaching the 7th floor, a barricade was set up just like on the 3rd floor.

In front of it, six goblins were causing a disturbance.

“Die!”

“Keeek?!”

As soon as Kang Hyeon appeared, he cleanly beheaded one of them.

“Keruk.”

However, a knife he failed to notice grazed Kang Hyeon’s face. A thin line of blood oozed out from his cheek.

“You bastard!”

The enraged Kang Hyeon then stabbed the goblin’s skull with his sword.

‘Can’t use skills, so no healing. Need to be careful.’

It was not easy to avoid all the swords swinging wildly in the narrow space. Kang Hyeon tried to move cautiously, but small wounds started appearing on his body.

“Keeeek!”

“Now you all are getting tired too!”

Evade, block, slash.

The actions he had repeatedly performed for a short time now showed their effects.

Finally, Kang Hyeon stabbed the last goblin’s heart and leaned against the wall, panting.

“Haah, haah…”

For some reason, he felt much more tired than during the tutorial. It was unclear whether it was because his abilities had weakened or due to the tension of the real stage.

“Wh-what are you…?”

The people who had confirmed that all the goblins were dead approached Kang Hyeon.

“I’m Kang A-hyun’s older brother. Could you please clean up these things?”

“No way! What if the creatures come while we’re doing that?!”

“That’s right! You should look for another place.”

Some of the people inside objected to Kang Hyeon’s words.

‘Damn it…’

The irritated Kang Hyeon roughly swept his hair back, a habit of his when he got angry.

‘Calm down, Kang Hyeon. They’re still the same company people as Kang A-hyun.’

“I’ve taken care of all the creatures downstairs too. So you don’t need to worry.”

“…”

“Open it quickly.”

“How can we trust your word?!”

Kang Hyeon gave a wry smile at the response and swung his sword with all his might.

-Kwang!

The impact instantly shattered the barricade.

“If you want to open it, then open it. Before I have to break in.”

“Are you okay?”

“Ah… How did you get here?”

“What do you take me for? The monsters I’ve beheaded over the past month must be in the thousands! Just look at these muscles.”

Kang Hyeon flexed his arms, showing off his impressively thick and solid muscles.

“Don’t joke around. Are the injured parts okay? I think you need treatment. Wait a moment.”

Kang A-hyun worriedly looked at the wound on Kang Hyeon’s cheek.

“Nah, this isn’t even considered an injury for me.”

At least, it was true by Kang Hyeon’s standards. But upon closer inspection, he could feel blood oozing out from various parts of his body, not just his cheek.

“Tsk. Don’t talk nonsense, quickly disinfect and stop the bleeding.”

“If it was like before, I wouldn’t have even cared…”

Kang Hyeon suddenly realized the importance of his skills.

Kang A-hyun brought a first-aid kit and carefully disinfected Kang Hyeon’s wounds.

“Does it hurt?”

“No, it doesn’t hurt at all. Doesn’t your brother look pretty cool today?”

“Shut up.”

Kang Hyeon’s light joke eased the atmosphere.

“But why are the company people acting like that? Saying you’re not my real brother and all that. Did you do something?”

“They’re just saying that because I’m too cool. Don’t worry about it.”

“Ugh, cut it out.”

There were a few more goblin attacks until that evening.

Seeing the number of goblins, Kang Hyeon boldly suggested removing the barricade. Of course, the people screamed in terror and tried to dissuade him.

-If we leave it like this, more will come attracted by the noise. It’s better to deal with them right now.

-But how can we…

-I’ll take care of it, you all just step back.

After successfully persuading the people, Kang Hyeon removed the barricade and faced the goblins alone. And the slaughter began.

“Wow… What is this person doing?”

“Didn’t you say Hyun-woo passed the tutorial up to Stage 2?”

“Uh… Ahem.”

As this scene repeated a few times, the people began to feel reassured.

The people who had been disgusted at the sight of goblin corpses were now watching from up close and even cheering him on.

“Finish them off!”

“That’s right!”

“Kang Hyeon-, fighting!”

Seeing Kang Hyeon being treated like a hero, Kang A-hyun stifled a laugh.

‘Haha… What is this situation…’
