‘If I have to hold it in, I’ll hold it in.’

A cool guy should listen to the person he likes, right? Though he really wanted to go, Mo Yeon-hu, who was holding in his need for the bathroom, kept chattering away.

(Necromancer) 0momo0: Anyway, I’m really going on a Raid!! If Miu hadn’t promised to take me, I wouldn’t even have thought about going!!!

(Necromancer) 0momo0: Miu, thank you so much for keeping your promise!!!>_< (Sniper) Miu: Promise? (Necromancer) 0momo0: Yes!!!! But then Miu, who had seemed ready to depart immediately, suddenly kept chatting and canceled the Ready button. (Sniper) Miu: The promise... (Sniper) Miu: This was a promise between us, wasn't it. Soon after, a strange chat came from them, as if they were chewing over the words. (Sniper) Miu: That's right (Sniper) Miu: Promises are meant to be kept, after all. ‘What do they mean?’ It was hard to follow the flow. Blinking his eyes as he read the chat, Mo Yeon-hu answered anyway. (Necromancer) 0momo0: Right!! Thank you so, so much for keeping your promise with me!!!! Miu didn't reply for a few seconds, then asked directly. (Sniper) Miu: Momo (Sniper) Miu: Do you want to master this Raid? (Necromancer) 0momo0: Huh!! Yeah!! That'd be awesome! The Alliance Members present at the time later recalled this moment like this: They should have done something to shut that 0momo0's mouth. (Sniper) Miu: Alright. Since Momo finally said something agreeable, I'll be generous. Miu should not have been generous. (Sniper) Miu: Let's do this until Momo becomes a hardcore expert at the Sky Dungeon today. (Sniper) Miu: I'll make it happen. But it was already too late, the words were spoken. (Sniper) Miu: Because I keep my promises well. The nightmare had begun. * * * The Sky Terror, accessible from level 160, was by no means an easy dungeon. Part of the reason was that the attacks used by the Strange Birds were all terrifying, but the biggest problem was the frequent deaths from falling, where you get pushed off the edge of a building and die. Of course, if a party member came close and used a resurrection skill, you could be revived, but it wasn't easy to resurrect amidst the constant onslaught of countless crows. But even so, 1BiGwi1, Shin Jadu, and FUNK, who were here together, probably thought: ‘We're strong anyway, so we can just push through with hard DPS, right?’ Their levels were high, and they were strong accordingly. After watching 0momo0's movements for a bit, wouldn't it be fine if they just attacked fiercely and killed the Strange Birds quickly? But they overlooked something. No matter how easy a dungeon is, Annihilation moves exist, and therefore, it's only possible to kill the Strange Birds quickly if there are no trolls in the party. How did they find this out? (Necromancer) 0momo0: Gasp, a bomb appeared, ah gong (Grinder) FUNK: Oh my god Momo why there (Medic) Shin Jadu: Ahht!!@!; Momo pleaseㅠㅠㅠ; (Gunner) 1BiGwi1: Ho lol omg-ㅁ-ㅁㅇㅋ♥♥ㅠㅠㅠ lolㅠ I'm dyingㅠ Momo please shoot gently.. That's right. The Necromancer who went with them, 0momo0...! (Alert) All raid members have died! They were a possessor of such astonishing gun skills that they kept making the Strange Birds use their Annihilation moves! The Necromancer's gun was notoriously bad. Not only was the handling terrible, but it also had recoil that made no sense. They knew that most parties tended to avoid Necromancers because of this. (Medic) Shin Jadu: How... can you not hit a single crow... but hit the bomb...? 0momo0 hadn't managed to hit a single Strange Bird, but they kept scoring Annihilations by perfectly hitting the trap bombs the Strange Birds dropped on the ground with uncanny accuracy. (Gunner) 1BiGwi1: Momo, can we confiscate your gun? (Grinder) FUNK: Confiscating the gun is useless (Grinder) FUNK: Because that monkey-like Skeleton becomes a Pied Piper Skeleton Not only were 0momo0's shooting skills a problem, but their summoned Skeletons were also an issue. The Skeletons, like the Pied Piper, drew the aggro of every single Strange Bird imaginable, messing up the patterns, and ultimately forcing 0momo0 to shoot in order to save their Skeletons, which shared a portion of their HP. (Grinder) FUNK: Nice bomb shot (Gunner) 1BiGwi1: Goodbye, my brilliant 3 minutes and 11 seconds of life, fffuㅠ Eventually, as that bizarre gun barrel kept aiming at the bombs, accompanied by a spectacular explosion of light, the Alliance Members kept getting wiped out. (Alert) All raid members have died! (Necromancer) 0momo0: Ah, I shot the bomb again! Sorry! The game kept restarting. The distorted field of view reappeared, the flying Strange Birds, their bodies restored to normal... Everything except their sanity started over from the beginning. After the party members stood dazed for a while as if they'd lost their souls, Shin Jadu typed in chat, sounding disbelieving. (Whisper) Shin Jadu: How... is this possible..? (Whisper) Shin Jadu: T_T BiGwi, you are holding back a bit, right? (Whisper) Shin Jadu: Because you said you'd check if I'm a spy... You are taking it easy, right..? (Whisper) Shin Jadu: FUNK is also taking it easy while probing... So that's why our progress is slow right now..?? Progress couldn't possibly be this bad in a raid full of skilled players! As Shin Jadu sent whispers, unable to believe it, 1BiGwi1 and FUNK naturally jumped up and replied. (Whisper) 1BiGwi1: Jadu, didn't you see..? Last round, I tried to hug the bomb and die alone, fffsㅠㅠ (Whisper) 1BiGwi1: BiGwi is trying his absolute hardest, at the peak of his life. (Whisper) FUNK: This is the highest level of focused play I can output with my current form. Surprisingly, they weren't taking it slow to figure out if 0momo0 was a spy; they were giving it their all to clear the dungeon! Of course, they couldn't believe this situation either. (Whisper) 1BiGwi1: Hey FUNK, I'm shoving in crazy DPS, how is this happening?? Is this progress for real?? Does a gunplay disaster of this level exist even for a total noob??? Does that make sense??? How have they been playing the game until now???? That person isn't a spy, are they??? (Whisper) FUNK: Hmm.. Or maybe they are a real spy, making us suffer like this. (Whisper) 1BiGwi1: Is it a high-level strategy? (Whisper) FUNK: Right, I'm thinking they might be doing this to disgrace us. (Whisper) 1BiGwi1: That makes sense... (Whisper) FUNK: Yeah, it does. (Whisper) 1BiGwi1: There's no fffing sense at all.. (Whisper) FUNK: .... No matter how hard they attacked, they didn't know what to do about 0momo0's terrible shooting that kept pulling out Annihilation moves, but it was also awkward to get angry. Because. (Alert) 0momo0 has died! “In the moment of death, I did not forget you all….” Bomb (Select) × 10, Healing Potion × 5, Special Potion × 3 distributed to all party members! (Alert) 0momo0 has died! “This time, I hope you all survive….” Bomb (Select) × 12, Healing Potion × 7, Special Potion × 5 distributed to all party members! (Alert) 0momo0 has died! “Honoring the last dance I won't forget even in death….” Bomb (Select) × 15, Healing Potion × 10, Special Potion × 8 distributed to all party members! In Zombie Village, there's a kind of cheer package where you can spend gold when you die to distribute items to party members. It seemed 0momo0 felt so sorry that they faithfully bestowed those things upon everyone every time they died…. (Whisper) 1BiGwi1: I think they might really be doing that because they feel sorry...; (Whisper) FUNK: So it's kinda tricky, if they're a real noob they'd probably do that because they feel genuinely sorry. Just when they were about to say something about the astonishing skills, seeing them send all sorts of gifts and apologize like that... They soothed themselves, saying they can't help it since the apology seems sincere, but when they saw an Annihilation happen just 10 seconds after starting the round from hitting a bomb, they felt fury boiling inside. (Gunner) 1BiGwi1: Hey, you, just now was really Finally, just as 1BiGwi1, who had been holding back, was about to step forward, the following chat immediately made him shut his mouth. (Sniper) Miu: Momo (Sniper) Miu: I'm curious, so I'm asking. Miu said softly. (Sniper) Miu: Are you human scum? They had started attacking 0momo0. 35 - Footnote Footnotes An ability or pattern so powerful that it can instantly wipe out a player or an entire party (or an entire enemy group) once used.
