Chapter 306: What I Want to Do the Most
“Heeeeeeeeey! Kang Minhyuuuuuuk! You puuuuuunk!”Oh Changwook shouted loudly, before jumping on Minhyuk and hugging him tightly.
When Minhyuk turned towards Lee Jinhwan, he saw him giving him a thumbs up. Kang Minhoo, on the other hand, was so moved that his eyes reddened with tears. Even Dietitian Hyejin’s eyes turned red as she covered her mouth in shock.
“Is, is this broken or something?”
“No, you punk!”
“This is really your weight, Minhyuk. To be honest, we also had a hard time trying not to tell you even though we saw you get slimmer every day.” Lee Jinhwan said, smiling wryly.
Kang Minhoo slowly approached Minhyuk as he spread his hands widely. He hugged his son tightly while patting him on the back. Unfortunately, they could not savor the moment. Lee Jinhwan immediately poured a cold bucket of water on them the moment they separated from each other.
“But, you shouldn’t be at ease yet. Your eating addiction, which is our biggest problem, has not disappeared yet.”
That was right. There was an extremely high probability that Minhyuk’s weight would increase again the moment he let his guard down. Minhyuk might have lost weight but his desire to eat and his high appetite still had not disappeared yet. However, even if his eating addiction was not yet completely cured, his body was already beginning to show signs of improvement through this slow, long-term treatment.
“No wonder I don’t get out of breath whenever I walk anymore. Even my knees don’t hurt as much either.”
“Does this mean that you can run or do weight training now?” Oh Changwook asked, looking extremely delighted.
After all, this meant that the range and choices of exercises, which had been limited due to his overweight and plump body, had now widened. However, expanding the range and choices of exercise did not mean that Minhyuk would be able to lose weight faster. The calories that were consumed when moving differ from a person weighing 170kg to a person weighing 120kg. Still, there was a high chance that he would lose weight slowly and firmly in the future.
“If it’s like this then… I can do what I want to do the most, right?”
“What do you want to do?”
Everyone’s attention was suddenly focused on Minhyuk.
‘What does Minhyuk want to do the most the moment he loses weight?’
“Get a girlfriend?”
“No, no!”
“Renting the entire movie theater and watching movies alone?”
“I can do that at home, though?”
“Ah…That’s right…” Oh Changwook said as he nodded in agreement. He remembered the fact that there was a private movie theater installed in Minhyuk’s own home.
“Then, what do you want to do the most?” Kang Minhoo looked extremely curious as he asked his son this question, but Minhyuk just smiled calmly.
“It’s a secret!”
“Hohoho. You brat. Are you going to keep secrets from your father too?”
“You’ll find out soon enough.”
Kang Minhoo smiled in satisfaction after seeing Minhyuk being happy about his weight loss. Then, Changwook appeared with a groan, dragging a full-length mirror to the room. Minhyuk held his breath as he slowly walked in front of the mirror. Then, he saw his reflection.
“Is this… me…?”
He had lost around 45kg ever since they started this treatment. Usually, anyone could clearly tell if they lost even just 2kg, but Minhyuk still carefully looked at every inch of his body. When he used to be in the 170kg range, his face looked dark, and even the shape could not be determined easily. The fat on his belly was also sagging and no regular clothes could fit him.
However, that was no longer the case right now. Minhyuk’s height was around 185cm. The average weight for this height should be between 80-90kg. In fact, someone who exercised as much as Minhyuk would gain more weight from muscle mass. This was because muscle, assuming that they were the same size as fat, was three times heavier. That was the main reason why people with high muscle mass tend to look skinnier than the weight displayed on the scale. Minhyuk was the prime example of that.
At first glance, he looked like he was about 105kg, when in fact, he was 120kg in weight. Of course, he still looked big. But right now, he did not look like someone that was ‘hyper-obese’. Anyone that saw him would feel that he was just a muscular athlete. Right now, Minhyuk saw that his nose bridge and jaw lines were starting to appear again.
“...No one would dare touch you if you came with me.”
His figure right now could be phrased like that in a good way, but in a bad way…
“M…muscle pig…?”
“Pffft. What do you mean by muscle pig? Muscle pig… Will a muscle pig be as cool and handsome as you?”
“Minhyuk, you’re so cool!”
Obviously, Minhyuk could really look like a muscle pig, just like what he said. However, that was not the case at all. Minhyuk’s outward appearance was so pretty that one could feel his elegance flowing from his body, despite his huge build.
Then, a thought flashed in Minhyuk’s head, ‘I have to try harder.’
Fortunately, he was not the type of person that would feel relieved and let his guard down. At this moment, he vowed that he would lose another 30kg in the future. However, even though he wanted to lose weight as much as possible, he knew that the process would inevitably slow down and that he needed to give it his all.
When everyone went on their own way to do their own things, Minhyuk approached Changwook and said, “Hyung, let’s go do what I want to do the most.”
***
Wei Xin was forced to recall Ma Tianyu’s incessant pleas when the Chinese rankers clashed with Mei Wei.
‘The boss mob there is the devil incarnate! You must never believe that he only sells ramyeon!!’
However, the shock of meeting Mei Wei for the first time made him forget about this fact. Compared to the devil that he had heard of, the boy seemed to be just selling ramyeon politely. As it turned out, that very same boy used only one hit to kill each of the three assassins that set out to hunt Mei Wei. In fact, it was not just Wei Xin. Even Mei Wei was surprised by this.
‘Co…Conir…?’
Mei Wei thought that the cute boy, Conir, the very same boy that made her laugh, was an NPC with special needs. However, the aura he emitted right now spoke a different story.
“Those who harass… my Noona… die…”
Tremendous and shocking killing intent spilled from Conir’s body, swallowing Wei Xin and the rankers\' bodies. It was like they were really seeing the ‘devil’ incarnate. What was worse was his power…
‘H…he’s more powerful than me…’
The fact that he could force the two assassins to log out with just a single strike in their vital points was evidence that he was a step ahead of Mei Wei.
Right now, Conir had already recognized Mei Wei as someone that he cherished, just like Minhyuk. The ‘bad people’ had made the mistake of attacking Mei Wei in front of him.
‘Bad customers that order 50 bowls of ramyeon but don’t eat them!’
Flash!
Conir moved quickly, like a ghost.
At this point, Mei Wei did not feel the need to stop Conir. He was far stronger than them. Besides, Wei Xin and the rankers were in the wrong, so they should be killed. What Mei Wei did was simple.
[The Goddess’ Blessings upon the Knight.]
[Attack +24%, Defense +21%, Skill Level + 1 with the basic HP volume increases by 25%.]
The Valkyrie might be skilled in attacking, but it was originally a class that was focused on ‘buff’ abilities. In fact, she was the one who reached the highest level in terms of buffing capabilities.
After jumping among the rankers, Conir moved like he was some sort of nuclear bomb.
[Faramil’s Swordsmanship Chapter 1]
[Wailing Child]
[An unpredictable and fast swordsmanship.]
His attacks were so fast that the rankers did not even realize that they were already attacked in their vital points.
Stab, stab, stab, stab, stab―
“Keuhaaaaaack!”
“Ugh, aaaack!”
“Kill him!!”
Rueden had a higher defense compared to other players since he was a tanker-based player. That was the main reason why he risked receiving damage in order to kill the boy named Conir. However, the boy was too fast. Conir stepped back from the rankers and activated another skill.
[Faramil’s Swordsmanship Chapter 2]
[Roaring Child]
[A powerful force is condensed at the tip of the stabbing sword. This range of the sword will become longer than what could be seen by the naked eye.]
A powerful force extended from the tip of Conir’s sword toward Rueden, a Lv579 tanker that was hailed as the number one tanker in China. He was dubbed as the ‘Immortal Rueden’ with an HP that was around three times higher than any ordinary warrior class. Rueden immediately struck his shield down to try and defend against the sword that was stretching towards him.
Baaaaaaaaaang―
“Stopped y…!” Rueden laughed loudly.
However, he realized that the tip of the sword that he wanted to defend against had already stabbed through his body. Roaring Child was a sword skill that had a longer range than what the eye could see. In other words, it was a skill that allowed the player to stab a vital point, all the while deceiving their eyes. In addition, with Mei Wei’s blessing, this skill’s level had increased, making its power much stronger than normal.
Baaaaaaaaaang―
A powerful force suddenly exploded in Rueden’s abdomen. At that moment, Rueden, who was well-known for his triple HP volume compared to normal warrior classes, was forcibly logged out.
“Im… Impossible…” Wei Xin said. He was horrified.
‘The Korean Server is teeming with monsters like this…?’
The fact that such a strong person was living in a small country with a population of less than 60 million, was something completely unbelievable. And, was this really that mentally disabled boy from earlier?
Then, Mei Wei participated in the battle too.
[Lightning God’s Grace]
[You will be able to move as fast as lightning]
Crackle―
Sparks appeared with every move that Mei Wei took. She was so fast that it looked like she disappeared with every step she took. In a blink of an eye, she appeared in front of the rankers with several missiles surrounding her body.
[Goddess\' Destruction]
[The wrathful goddess’ missiles will have an additional 850% attack devouring the enemies.]
“Block iiiiit!”
The mages hurriedly created a huge shield at Wei Xin’s orders while the tankers raised their huge shields. However, Conir moved like a ghost and dug into their gaps, successfully destroying their formation. This was fantastic teamwork between him and Mei Wei.
Then, the huge missiles dropped among the twenty or so rankers.
Bang, bang, bang, bang, bang!
Clack, clack, clack, clack―
Wei Xin could not believe what he was seeing.
‘Her power is this overwhelming…?’
He thought that they had a chance of killing her, but the truth was, they could not. The wall between the number one ranker, Mei Wei, and himself was too high. Even the little boy in front of them was problematic too. After receiving the buff from Mei Wei, the person with the best buff abilities, there seemed to be no one that could stop him. In desperation…
“Mei Wei. We’re just trying to go to the Korean Server. Are you going to stop us and turn your back on us just because we didn’t eat those ramyeon bowls?!!!”
In fact, Mei Wei had blocked all contacts from the guilds. This was a way for her to express her intention of playing the game silently by herself. She was a player who did not want to belong anywhere. However, she had never made things hard for other players. But right now, she was blocking them from going to Korea.
“Do you have subordinates in that country?!”
Mei Wei walked slowly after hearing his words. Fist King’s Descendant, Wei Xin, immediately prepared his best attack. His fists were suddenly filled with a powerful force.
[Fist King’s Consecutive Fists]
[Each of the 15 consecutive hits will have 400% damage.]
He launched 15 consecutive hits, each with 400% damage. This was the skill that gave Wei Xin the title of PVP God.
Punch, punch, punch, punch, punch―
His fists struck Mei Wei.
Bang, bang, bang, bang, bang!
He continuously sent blows to her body.
‘I, I can kill her…!’
Wei Xin saw a ray of hope. Then, he dealt his final blow.
Baaaaaang―
Mei Wei’s body collapsed and flew towards the wall. Wei Xin felt thrilled and excited at this sight.
‘I did it, I killed Mei Wei…!’
Then, someone suddenly spoke behind him, “Well, I don’t have any subordinates, but I believe that there’s someone that I can be friends with over there. Of course, I haven’t seen him yet. In fact, I have only heard of him. But, I believe that he would be different from the likes of you who cast me out just because you did not find me profitable anymore. To be exact, I want to be friends with him. No, I definitely have to be friends with him.”
‘H… how…?’
Wei Xin was horrified to hear Mei Wei’s voice behind him.
She had triggered her skill in an instant.
[Goddess\' Secret]
[A doll will replace you to receive the attack, effectively invalidating your enemy’s attack.]
A skill that could instantly create a doll that would take all the attacks for oneself was extremely amazing. She could even quickly break away from the doll, with her body turning transparent and invisible.
Wei Xin felt a searing pain in his neck.
Slash―
“Keoheok!”
Wei Xin was forced to log out. He looked at the black screen while lost in thought.
‘The…there’s a player that Mei Wei wants to befriend?’
Who was it? Wei Xin did not know who it was, but at this very moment, he felt incredibly jealous of that person.
