Once everyone was inside the dungeon, all the monsters got smoked immediately. Put in a pack.
The three prisoners start killing every goblin in sight as Chiyul wonders who's the real monster here.
He then turns over to Jinwoo and Y/n
Jinwoo managed to cut down one goblin with ease while Y/n killed two of them.
Jinwoo: Wow, babe. You got two kills.
Y/n: I'm just a natural, Jin. Plus, I got more than you.
Jinwoo: Natural. Whatever you say, beautiful.
Jinwoo kisses Y/n on her forehead as Chiyul speaks.
Chiyul: Okay, that's it for this group.
The older man faces Jinwoo and Y/n, impressed by their new strength.
Chiyul: I'm impressed by how strong the two of you have gotten, Jinwoo and Y/n. And those daggers of yours are pretty striking.
Y/n: Thank you for the sincere compliment, Mister Song.
Joohee comments on how amazing it is that Jinwoo and Y/n have lasted thus long in a dungeon without needing to be healed by a healer.
Jinwoo snakes her arm around Y/n's waist, pulling her closer.
Chiyul sees that not only did the couple change physically but also in terms of their abilities.
The party continues as they come across three tunnels with different paths.
Chiyul: We've got a choice to make.
Taeshik: The dungeon's been easier than expected. Should be able to split into three groups.
Jinwoo and Y/n use their enhanced perception to detect where the boss is and tell Chiyul and Joohee they should go on the left tunnel.
Sangshik and Jeongho decide on the middle tunnel.
And Taeshik takes the prisoners on the right tunnel.
As everyone heads their separate ways, Taeshik looks at Jinwoo and Y/n with interest in his eyes.
Sangshik and Jeongho kill some goblins and Sangshik laments on the fact that he and Jeongho left Jinwoo and Y/n behind.
Even though, they did it for their family's sake. Sangshik resolves to apologize to Jinwoo and Y/n.
Meanwhile, Jinwoo, Y/n, Chiyul and Joohee walk down to the boss's lair.
Jinwoo's thoughts: (That Taeshik guy visited me and Y/n in the hospital with his superior. Hopefully, he hasn't recognized us, though.)
Y/n sees Jinwoo deep in thought as she grips her hand lovingly.
Y/n: Hey, Jinwoo. You OK?
Jinwoo: Oh, yeah. Don't worry, baby. I'm good.
Jinwoo then smiles seductively at Y/n, making her blush.
And she stares at Y/n's ass, which is sticking out of her skirt. Not too much, but at the right amount.
Jinwoo: You know, when this is over, that ass...
Jinwoo then smacks Y/n's ass, making her yelp quietly.
Y/n: Jinwoo!
Jinwoo: C'mon, you love me.
However, the fun banter gets cut to an end as they hear screams and head off to the source.
They arrive where the screams were heard and find the prisoners' corpses and Jeongho dead.
Y/n: Mister Kim!
Everyone sees Sangshik, lying against the ground, bleeding.
Jinwoo: Joohee, heal him.
Joohee stands frozen in shock and horror.
Jinwoo: Hurry up and do it!
Jinwoo's yell manages to get Joohee going as she kneels by Sangshik's side and heals him.
He then starts to cough up blood.
Joohee: Mister Kim! Please hang on!
Sangshik: Stop it, Joohee. I'm not gonna make it.
Jinwoo: What do you mean?
Y/n: Yeah, you have a family that needs you.
Jinwoo: Dying isn't a fucking option. So no.
Jinwoo walks towards Sangshik with Y/n in tow.
Y/n: You can't die now, old man. We won't allow it, you're gonna live. Otherwise...
Jinwoo and Y/n: How can we keep blaming you if you don't?
Sangshik during his final bits of breath states he can't find the right words and apologizes for having abandoned Jinwoo and Y/n in the double dungeon that day as he passes away from bleeding out.
As everyone mourns his death, Taeshik strikes and attempts to kill Joohee but is stopped by Jinwoo who grabs him by his wrist, causing him to back away.
Taeshik: Wow, you're a fast one. Thought I'd have myself the trouble and kill the healer first.
Taeshik then states that once he kills everyone, he'll make up some story to cover his tracks.
Chiyul picks up Sangshik's sword and battles Taeshik using a strength buff from Joohee.
He does manage to get the drop on Taeshik but sadly fails and is about to get killed but then Jinwoo and Y/n come in last second to save Chiyul.
Taeshik, surprised at this sudden intervention, asks them.
Taeshik: Again? Who are you two?
Jinwoo: Jinwoo Sung.
Y/n: Y/n L/n.
Jinwoo and Y/n: E-Rank hunters.
Taeshik realizes that the two hunters he's facing were the same ones he net at the hospital, back when Jinwoo and Y/n were their old E-Rank selves.
They then question why he killed Jeongho, Sangshik and the prisoners.
Taeshik explains that he killed the prisoners cause someone hired him to. The other reason was for the pure fuck of it.
He then blitzes Jinwoo and Y/n as they clash blades with the spiky purple-haired assassin.
Y/n's thoughts: (Damn! He's really fast!)
Taeshik goes onto unleash multiple slashes, all at once.
Jinwoo and Y/n barely have time to dodge all the attacks.
From there, they go band for band with Taeshik as he attacks them.
The system then notifies them that Taeshik's bloodlust has now registered him as an enemy to kill.
Dark auras envelop the players as they use dash to increase their speed and get the jump on him, hitting him with their daggers.
The poison from the daggers begins to take effect as it causes his left eye to go red with blood.
However, he uses his stealth skill to go undetected and injures them.
They use full recovery to heal up quickly.
Taeshik is confused as to how two combat hunters can use healing magic as well.
Jinwoo and Y/n announce another one of their emotions as vanished, telling Taeshik they no longer need anger to kill trash like him.
The purple-haired assassin realizes that the players have killed as well.
From there, the battle ramps up with Taeshik using stealth to attack again. However, Jinwoo and Y/n use their perception to track his bloodlust and activate the murderous intent skill to get him.
As he lies down bleeding, Taeshik questions the couple of their true powers.
They reveal that they are the only hunters who can grow stronger with each battle. Taeshik warns them that with the power they wield, they must be careful.
Joohee and Chiyul thanks them for saving their lives as Jinwoo and Y/n head towards the boss and kill it.
Afterwards, they head outside where they alongside Joohee and Chiyul meet up with Jinchul Woo.
Chiyul then lies to Jinchul, telling him he's the one who killed Taeshik Kang.
Chiyul then states to Jinwoo and Y/n that he did them a favor and leaves.
Sometime later, Jinwoo and Y/n meet up with Joohee who admits that maybe the hunter life ain't for her.
And she's deciding to quit. She also tells Jinwoo to take good care of Y/n.
A/n: That's it for now. I'll also be skipping episode 10.
Y/n has reached Level 171 and acquired 410 564 489 gold coins in the system shop.
Here are her new achievements and items:
Shadow creation:
This extraordinary ability grants Y/n the power to skillfully craft weapons and items from the very essence of shadow soldiers, each creation imbued with an eerie elegance. But her talents extend far beyond mere weaponry; she can also conjure intricate objects and a myriad of forms, all derived from the depths of pure darkness itself. With a mere thought, shadows twist and coalesce into tangible manifestations, reflecting both beauty and menace in their design. Each creation is not just an item but a testament to her profound connection with the shadows that dance at her command.
Gamma ray:
Y/n harnesses the awe-inspiring power of a Gamma-ray blast, meticulously infused with pure mana, allowing her to unleash an explosion of catastrophic proportions—comparable to a nuclear detonation. This incredible ability radiates raw energy and destruction, yet she exercises immense restraint, meticulously saving it as her ultimate weapon for desperate times.
Martian shape-shifting Runestone:
Y/n has now also acquired Martian-level shape-shifting; while not being able to take the form of others, she can, however, change parts of her body into whatever she pleases. Upgrading her existing shape-shifting abilities to a higher degree.
Ice gauntlets:
With these enchanted gauntlets, Y/n gains the extraordinary ability to wield ice-based powers, allowing them to summon frost and manipulate the chilling forces of winter.
A/n: These are quotes I might use in the story, plus I might forget them. Hence, the word "possible".
"I emerged from a world steeped in violence and fear, but you transformed it into something beautiful and sweet." - Y/n L/n (or as Korea would pronounce it, L/n Y/n)
"She is my world, and I will defend her with my life. Nothing will stand in my way." - Sung Jinwoo
"You clearly have strong feelings for her, so go ahead and express how you really feel. You'll never know if she feels the same unless you take the chance." - Lee Joohee
" Jinwoo and Y/n sitting in a tree. K-I-S-S-I-N-G" - Sung Jinah
That's all I got. Till next time, or whatever.
I'm thinking of doing episode 1 and I'm thinking of Y/n and Jin-Woo get together by like the first to second episode of season 1 and episode 3 to 4.
That's it, I'm gonna do it anyways
I wanted to make this post cause when I came up with this fanfic, I was like, "What would Y/n's powers be like?"
Now, just like Jinwoo, she'll obviously be a player in the system but in terms of Monarch powers, what she got?
In most of these fics, you'd have the reader having light powers and all that. That's cool, but that feels common from my understanding.
Plus, I initially wanted her to be some "Gear Monarch", like having the powers to turn people, like foes into gears from Guilty Gear but that felt stupid.
So, I decided she'll be the second Shadow Monarch like Jinwoo in this story.
As the saying goes, "Every king needs a queen".
Or since, in this story, Jinwoo is a girl with a dick, another queen? Who cares.
But I will add some powers and abilities for Y/n, so she and Jinwoo have similar yet different skill sets
Synopsis:
In a world where magic portals called gates appeared and led to places called dungeons where monsters lived, mankind awakened supernatural and superhuman abilities.
They became known as Hunters and would fight the very monsters that lurked within these dungeons.
Each hunter is divided into separate categories ranging from the top S-Rank to the lowest of them all, E-Rank.
Our heroes, two girls, Sung Jin-Woo and Y/n L/n, are the weakest of the weak. Constantly referred to as "The Weakest Hunters of Mankind".
One day, both girls end up in a double dungeon and almost die till a mysterious game-like system interface aka The System chose them as it's players.
With nothing left to lose, they accept and become players of the system.
They end up gaining the power to level up. This is a rare power since in this world, the rank you get, you're stuck with life.
So these girls are gonna make the most of it while navigating their love for each other
