Ken– in a situation, where doesn't know what to do, decided to do something he is really bad at.
He opened the bag he had, and took a metal skewer from it and then he threw it at the T-rex.
As the skewer slightly pierced the skin of the T-rex, it turned towards him.
[Tier 7 land dragon species, T-rex has become aware of your presence.]
[Tier 7 land dragon species, T-rex has made you Its target.]
"Oh shit. I gotta run."
He starts running in the opposite direction with everything he had. He grabs a tree, and uses his momentum to quickly change his direction.
As he keeps on running, he looks behind and sees the tree he grabbed on, destroyed like nothing.
He starts to run towards Dokja and his group. By then, they already made a plan.
The T-rex gives off a ferocious roar.
[T-rex has used the skill, Carnivorous fear.]
Ken's body suddenly stiffened and he felt his whole body shivering.
Lee Jihye, and Jung Heewon start to run with the intent to go to the T-rex's sides.
"Hey! Heewon, take this. I'm lending you for now." He throws his sword towards Heewon, and she grabs onto it.
Suddenly two big, flying mantis-like insects go into the T-rex's eyes, turning it blind.
Dokja screams, commanding them. "Jihye! Heewon! Now!"
Hearing his command, they slash the leg of the T-rex, breaking its balance.
Dokja ran towards its tails, and quickly climbed it , running.
[Unbreakable faith's special property has been activated.]
[Ether affix has been changed to fire.]
As fire gulps down the sword, Dokja strikes the neck of the T-rex, sliding down. Slicing half of its neck.
Then suddenly, the fire from the sword engulfed the whole T-rex, burning it to death.
[You are one of the first to successfully hunt the tier 7 dragon species, T-rex.]
[You have received 200 coins for contributing to the achievement.]
As Ken gets the notification. He starts giggling out of excitement.
Oh! I got it even though I didn't do much?! So, me striking the dinosaur and also giving Heewon the sword gave me some contribution? He thought.
He looked toward others, they were giving water to a seriously injured man.
After hearing something from the man, Dokja tried to ask more, but he died before that.
"Guys! Um… did you also get the coins for helping in the achievement?" Ken asked.
Everyone stares at him. While Jihye became incredibly mad and made a fuss about why Ken got coins, even though he didn't do much.
Dokja walked towards him and asked. "How are you here?"
"Uh… well, I followed you guys here." Ken replied.
Dokja thought about something, as he was about to ask Ken about something. He couldn't find Ken in front of him.
He looks around and finds him, trying to take out his skewer from the T-rex's body.
"Hey, guys! Can I try eating its meat?" Ken asks.
Hearing his words, everyone except Dokja becomes very eager to try it.
—***—
Dokja was looking around in a lab. Just then, he found multiple potion jars.
I found it! He exclaimed to himself.
Jihye, noticing something different about Dokja, comes towards him and sees those.
"Hey mister. What are you doin– what is that? Stamina amplification ampule?" Jihye asks.
"Don't tell me you are planning to take all these for yourself! Hey, Heewon! He is trying to monopol–"
"Of course, I'm planning to share them!" Dokja exclaims.
Jung Heewon, Lee Gilyoung, Ken, everyone comes forward hearing Jihye.
"Mister. Can't you give me the strength ampules? I'm quite weak, you see."
Look at this little piece of shi–let's not say it. Her literal highest stat is strength! Does she think I'm going to fall for it! Dokja thought.
[Name: Lee Jihye]
[Attributes: Scarred sword demon (rare)]
[Personal skills: Blade proficiency (lvl 4), Demon slaying (lvl 1), Sensory perfection (lvl 2), Ghost walk (lvl 2)]
[Stigma : Sea battle, Large army command.]
[Stats: Strength (lvl 17), Constitution (lvl 13), Agility (lvl 13), Magic power (lvl 10)]
Jihye and Heewon start to wonder how to distribute them. Just then, Dokja suggests a solution.
"How about rock, paper, scissors? The one who wins will take one for each win."
"Oh, rock, paper, scissors? I'm quite at it, you see." Jihye replies.
"Yes, yes. I'm also really good at it." Dokja says while grinning.
[Personal skill, Omniscient reader's viewpoint has been activated.]
[Character Lee Jihye is about to play scissors.]
—***—
At the end of the day. Dokja has 12 ampules, Heewon with 2, Gilyoung with 2, and Ken with 4.
"How is this possible! Argh! How come I didn't get any win?!" Jihye was making a fuss over not getting any.
On the other hand Ken was thinking to himself, while still munching on the T-rex meat, stuck in his skewer like a kebab.
How come I never used the skill called Reading? I don't remember much, but Dokja should be able to read my moves with his skill…
The first round, I was about to play rock, then I just… felt like I just understood what he was about to play… and even the thing called Reader's pov also became stage 2 at that moment…
Do these two skills allow me to notice things better, or what? While Ken was overthinking. Gilyoung asks him.
"Why did you only take Magic power ampules?"
"MP? That is because my skill uses that way too much." Ken replies.
"Then why are you still eating that?" Gilyoung asks.
"Can't I? And not just that, it also unexpectedly tastes better than I imagined."
"Are you always that hungry? I feel like you have already eaten at least 5 kg of meat by now."
"Yes! I did! Why are you even asking?"
Just then, a helicopter comes down, and the system notification comes.
[The theatre master is happy with the ending. You can now move to the next floor.]
As everyone gets into the helicopter. It starts to fly in the air.
"Oh. It is kinda cool, you know? I never rode anything that flies!" Ken was blurting out things from excitement.
Then Jihye asks him. "Where did you find that cap? I don't think you had that."
"I found it while scavenging around the lab. I lost the one I had before, because of the monster wave." Ken replies.
Just then, Jung Heewon returns him the sword he lent. After taking it, he acted like he'd forgotten he gave it to her in the first place.
Just when Heewon was about to ask him something, Gilyoung says.
"He stole it."
"Uh… what do you mean?" She asked, confused.
"You were about to ask about the sword, no? How did he get a B-grade sword? Right?"
"Well… yeah. We are still using the sharpened bones of the ground rats, but he has that. But… what did you mean by stealing?" Heewon whispered to Gilyoung's ear.
"I talked about it with Yoo Sangah. She told me that he stole it from the National Museum."
Heewon, like Sangah, also became stunned after hearing that.
[You have reached the first end credit.]
