Ex Rank Supporting Role’s Replay in a Prestigious School

Chapter 111

“I have an offer.”

“You’re smiling suspiciously again. Tell me.”

It was before boarding Cymopoleia.

Myung-ho Hwang’s mansion.

It was after checking all the data that Red Tiger had investigated, and was discussing the operation with Jiho Hwang.

I proposed something to the Tiger clan.

“Let’s not kill or capture Kang-ryup Jeo after stopping his assassination plan. Instead, I’ll give Jeo a taste of his own medicine.”

There were 7 zodiac clans that had a long tail.

The only clans that we were sure of not to have betrayed us were the Dragon and Dog clan.

Five traitor candidates remained: Monkey, cow, snake, horse, and mouse.

‘We don’t have clues yet, we can’t make them hide their tail.’

At my word, Jiho looked very dissatisfied but nodded.

“Yeah.”

Jiho had the same opinion as me, but it will be difficult to make an easy decision for him, because of Red Tiger’s huge injury.

“I want to prevent the assassination in a natural way as possible. Don’t do anything yourself.”

“Kang-ryup Jeo will use ‘Prongs’. How do you think you’re going to stop the assassination and get payback from that pig?”

I told them one by one the plans I had prepared.

Except for the ‘Player’s trajectory’ and ‘Loose Change of the Eraser’.

“I’m going to get my hands on the Sangboshimgeumpa after I let him consume the prongs like that. Then beat up the disarmed pig.”

“What?”

“I have a trick up my sleeve, remember?”

“You’re going to use ‘Usage of all Things’ to get Sangboshimgeumpa.”

Jiho said, looking steadily at me.

“That’s the skill you cast when you hold a weapon in your hand. How are you going to get the weapon of the Pig clan’s leader in your hands?”

My plan was as follows.

First, let the prongs be consumed as much as possible.

Second, wear a crow mask to provoke Jeo.

Third, use Kyung-gu Kwak’s ‘The Blessing of 100 Seconds’ to raise my defense and go into super recovery mode.

Fourth, in that state, take the teeth of the Sangboshimgeumpa with my body and hold the handle in my hand.

‘Sangboshimgeumpa wanted to get away from Jeo. The creator of the weapon thinks the same thing.’

There was a fair chance.

If this worked, I could reduce the power of the main villains, and screw Kang-ryup Jeo.

“Yeah, I got something planned out.”

Somehow I felt like Jiho would stop me if I told him all of my plans.

So I decided not to tell him in detail.

Jiho continued to object to my plan because he did not like my lack of explanation, and Ho-gun glared at me with cold eyes.

And now.

My plan was almost at its end.

‘The psychic poison was an unexpected variable, but it’s going as planned.’

I was used to pain.

Cancerous pain caused by cancer cells stimulating nerves or destroying and squeezing other tissues.

As a terminal cancer patient, I was always suffering from cancerous pain just before I came into this world.

That’s why I decided that this plan was feasible and carried it into execution.

‘I held on as expected. I didn’t pass out!’

The thing I was most worried about was fainting with the shock caused by pain.

However, I was pierced by the prongs of the Sangboshimguempa now.

And still, I could think clearly.

‘I have to finish this before the 100 seconds run out.’

As I was planning, my body was bursting and getting ripped and regenerating at the same time.

It was hard to breathe because of the pain.

I had to move my arm, but my arm felt so much heavier than usual.

‘If I fall down here, Jiho will intervene and the long tail will hide itself!’

That thought made my hands finally move.

I laughed after I barely grasped the handle.

?Skill ‘Usage of all things’ has been activated.?

It was the moment the skill was activated.

My vision blurred into white nothingness.

Whoosh-!

When I blinked my eyes, there was nothing around me.

I could see no deck below me.

Kang-ryup Jeo, who was holding one side of the handle of Sangboshimgeumpa, was also missing.

In the white space where there was nothing, there was only me and the Sangboshimgeumpa that pierced my body.

‘The destruction and regeneration have stopped too.’

It was as if time had stopped.

The pangs of pain that dominated my body were completely gone.

[I grieve.]

I heard a faint voice somewhere.

[My Comrade has changed.]

Maybe, this is the voice of Sangboshimgeumpa.

As soon as the realization hit me, all kinds of emotions came pouring into me from the prongs.

Humiliation, lamentation, sadness, disappointment, disillusionment, despair, and helplessness and compassion.

By the time the emotions calmed, the voice was heard again.

[You have the ability to deal with Guchijungpa. What do you want to accomplish with this weapon?]

Guchijungpa was another name for Sangboshimgeumpa.

The voice was for sure, Sangboshimgeumpa.

[Wealth? Honor? Or, that reckless wish that my old friend, Jeo, also hoped for?]

Jeo’s wish?

I don’t know what he had wanted, but it seemed like it wasn’t wealth and honor.

‘What I want to do with Sangboshimgeumpa…….’

There were many things I had to do and want to do.

It was difficult to prioritize everything because everything was important.

However, if I got a powerful weapon now, the first thing I wanted to do was this.

“I want to beat the hell out of the pig in front of my eyes.”

My blood boiled at the things the main villain had done.

The minion of Kang-ryup Jeo, Pyun-deuk Choi, had done things that were disgusting.

Red Tiger was out cold for a week by the prongs of Sangboshimgeumpa.

In addition, the Prongs that pierced my body now hurt like hell.

I couldn’t help but feel like beating him up.

[…… Ha, Haha! I see!]

Sangboshimgeumpa laughed after some silence.

[Yes, let’s give the pig what he deserves!]

Whoosh-!

My vision was blurred again, and then I saw the deck and Kang-ryup Jeo.

“The skill ‘Usage all Things’ has leveled up from 3 to 4.›

I heard a system announcement.

I guess my level rose because Sangboshimgeumpa, a rare item, chose me over Jeo.

The details and usage of the Sangboshimgeumpa flowed into my head.

Three remaining prongs.

It was an opportunity to test the level 4 performance of ‘Usage of all Things.’

“What? Why isn’t prongs working!”

Splat-!

When I pulled out the weapon that stopped destroying my body, Kang-ryup Jeo on the other end of the handle fell backward.

“W-what! How could this be?!”

My body felt light and well due to ‘The Blessing of 100 Seconds’.

I turned the Sangboshimgeumpa with both hands and aimed at Kang-ryup Jeo.

‘I bet he never imagined that this weapon would go into human hands.’

Those who act fast get to win.

Before Jeo could respond, I immediately activated the prongs.

Crunch-!

“Squeeeeeeel!”

The teeth of Sangboshimgeumpa pierced Jeo’s stomach.

Perhaps it was because he had not had pain for a long time.

He squealed like a pig getting slaughtered.

“This is for him.”

It was a shame that he didn’t get hit by the same prong as Red Tiger, but I still dedicated the first attack to him.

“And this is for me!”

I used one more prong to break through his body.

Rumble rumble-!

Psychic waves burst from the weapon’s prongs.

With the flow of the psychic waves, Jeo screamed in agony.

But even after I pulled the forks away from Kang-ryup Jeo’s body, he managed to stand on both feet.

‘He didn’t use any recovery skills like I did. He’s quite good, I have to admit that.’

The Jeo Palgae I knew from ‘The Journey to the West’ would’ve run away in this situation.

However, Kang-ryup Jeo kept his ground, glaring as if to kill.

“Pride doesn’t allow you to retreat?”

“Do you know who I am!”

“Of course I know, Kang-ryup Jeo.”

He spat blood but did not back down.

In a sense, he has grown.

But I didn’t intend to let Kang-ryup Jeo on this ship.

‘I can’t kill you. I can’t capture you. I can’t let you be. Then there’s one way left.’

He was a navy general.

He’ll survive even if he gets thrown into the sea.

“Then I’ll throw you out.”

I still had one prong left.

“Fuck off.”

Rumble rumble-!

The eighth prong blew Jeo to the other side of the sea.

He clenched his teeth and glared at me till the end.

I grinned suspiciously and glared back at him behind the crow mask until he completely disappeared out of sight.

‘It’s over.’

The clothes I had changed into were tattered and ripped, but there was no wound in the stomach that was exposed.

The carded Sangboshimgeumpa was in my hand.

‘I can’t hear your voice now.’

Should I change into my tux and join the Other-world attack?

I went back into the boat, thinking about it.

Fling-!

Something that appeared imperceptibly caught me and dragged me to a nearby cabin.

Before I could resist, the door closed loudly.

Bang!

When I looked up, I saw Jiho with a very unpleasant face.

“You told me not to come to do stuff like that?”

If I answered ‘yes,’ he would become angrier.

I was wondering how to change the subject, when,

“Savior! I still owe you my life you know, are you crazy? Did you want to die? Humans die fast anyway! You’re going to die!”

I couldn’t tell if To-yeon Ok was worried about or cursing me.

I thought she was suffering from a headache due to the extreme use of the Moon palace map, but no, she seemed too fine.

I should get her to use the map more often.

“To-yeon, I think the last word is inappropriate to say now.”

“No, it isn’t. It’s appropriate! He really tried to kill himself! Humans die if they get their stomach pierced! To-yoon unnie, you know too! Do you want to see our rescuer die? He’ll die, I’m telling you!”

To-yeon whined, rolling her red eyes here and there.

To-yoon, To-yeon’s big sister, tried to calm her down.

But she still kept saying I’ll die.

In the end, Jiho Hwang spoke with a deeply angered face.

“Shut up, damn moon rabbit.”

“I will not shut up! I don’t wanna! You shut up!”

“Oh I’ll make you shut up. I’ll send you to the afterworld before Ui-shin Cho.”

The heads of the Tiger and Rabbit clan were bickering.

Leaving the two alone, To-yoon spoke to me.

“Savior, I have completed the manipulation of the records inside Cymopoleia.”

To-yoon said, showing the thumbnail of the video record with my appearance erased in the hologram.

I had asked them to wait on board for monitoring and deleting the records.

‘Failure of recording devices due to natural psychic waves is common. This should be okay.’

While listening to To-yoon’s explanation, a notification message from Player SAT?K arrived on my device.

[Clearing of the Other-world has ended.]

They cleared it all before I got to join.

My playable characters and their crew were competent.

To-yoon, who saw the message, said goodbye politely.

“We’ll be on our way. Have a good trip.”

“Thank you. I’ll be off, too.”

The two Head-of-clans seemed busy fighting, so I was only going to say goodbye to To-yoon.

“Ui-shin Cho……”

“Savior……”

Jiho and To-yeon, who had stopped fighting, were staring at me.

They both seemed to have a lot to say, but I ignored them and moved out.

If I delayed further, my crew might come for me.

‘Anyway, all ended well.’

I blocked what the villain was trying to do, and beat Jeo up.

And…….

‘I got the Sangboshimgeumpa.’

The card of Sangboshimgeumpa was in my hand.

It was UR class, according to the card border color.

‘I don’t know how much of my orders this weapon will follow, since it has a mind of its own, but I’m glad it’s not in the hands of the antagonists.’

The opponent lost an important piece, and the moves I could make has increased.

On the way to the back of the ship, I could feel a spring in my step.

* * *

Kang-ryup Jeo, which was thrown out into the sea, immediately called the clouds.

But no matter how much he called it, the clouds did not come.

He had to force his ripped body to swim until he hit land.

The uninhabited island that he came to was more like a pile of coral than solid land.

The state of the shabby island was just like his crappy situation.

Kang-ryup Jeo shouted towards the air in rage.

“How dare he……! I’ll kill you! Crow Mask! I’ll smash that clunky Pitchfork as well!”

He called his subordinates with his device and lay down on the rough ground.

Just then, an Original clan lady in a red dress elegantly came towards Kang-ryup Jeo.
