Three Meals of a Reincarnator-Chapter 203
Chapter 203: Chapter 203
In order to prevent Ho Sung Lee, Bowl, and Ssol from getting attacked, Min Sung began to deal damage.
However….
Grey Wolf.
Their name sounded ordinary, but the attack power of the monsters in Beatrice was far from average.
Min Sung swung his Gungnir and attempted to unleash his magic power, but the monsters were quick and agile.
They quickly dodged Min Sung’s magic power, and once they got close enough, they opened their mouths in order to get a bite out of Min Sung’s neck.
Min Sung stabbed a grey wolf’s body with his Gungnir.
The blade of his Gungnir pierced through its body with a large slashing noise, but the problem came after that.
Min Sung was certain.
He didn’t know about Bowl and Ssol, but he knew that Ho Sung Lee wasn’t able to defend himself from their attacks.
But Ho Sung Lee exceeded Min Sung’s expectations.
[Skill, Shadow Magic]
Ho Sung Lee transformed into a shadow and hid on the ground.
It was the best skill that could buy him some time to dodge the attacks of the grey wolves.
While the grey wolves looked for Ho Sung Lee everywhere.
Bowl summoned his devils, and Min Sung stabbed his Gungnir into the neck of a second grey wolf.
Slash!
As soon as Min Sung took out his sword, the grey wolf’s blood spread everywhere as its body plopped on the ground.
Meanwhile, Bowl put his devils up against the grey wolves.
The grey wolf monsters were so quick that they were capable of dodging any magic power, so it was a much effective strategy to let them come close before attacking.
It was hard to believe just how fast they were in the tutorial.
That was when they realized just how difficult the new world was.
Min Sung instinctively felt it.
This place was so dangerous that it couldn’t even be compared to the Demonic Realm.
“Back off, Bowl.”
In response to Min Sung’s command, Bowl withdrew his devils and stepped back.
Kaboom!
His Gungnir made a thundering noise as it went in for an attack.
But the grey wolf dodged Min Sung’s powerful attack by twisting its neck to the side and then swung its large toenails.
Right before the grey wolf’s nails slashed through Min Sung’s side, Min Sung’s Gungnir made another thundering noise as it slashed through the grey wolf’s body first.
Even after seeing the death of a grey wolf, the other grey wolves fearlessly charged toward Min Sung all at once.
The grey wolves’ eyes flashed with white light.
Swoosh!
A great force came out of Min Sung’s Gungnir.
A white light containing the magic power covered the remaining grey wolves.
Once the magical light disappeared, all of the grey wolves had vanished without a trace.
All that was left were the items on the ground, proving that the grey wolves were now dead.
[You’ve acquired 300 points.]
[Your reputation has risen by +1.]
[The Dionysus Gods are beginning to take an interest.]
[Congratulations! A small number of Dionysus Gods have favorited you.]
When he checked the status window, he saw his performance points and reputation score, and the number ‘5’ was an indicator of the number of Dionysus Gods that had favorited him.
When Min Sung closed the status window, Ho Sung Lee appeared from his shadow form.
“Phew. Why is the tutorial so hard? I think this is the hardest it’s ever been.” Ho Sung Lee said while glancing around.
“Is the great and almighty support you were talking about nothing more than hiding?”
In response to Min Sung’s criticism, Ho Sung Lee laughed and shook his head.
“I didn’t have to show you my abilities yet. You’ll see my development soon enough. Haha.”
Min Sung ignored him and looked at the system map as he continued moving.
Ho Sung Lee sniffled and followed behind him.
Bowl snickered at Ho Sung Lee while Ssol beamed a smile.
“Are you having fun?”
Ho Sung Lee expressed his discontent at Ssol and Bowl.
Bowl and Ssol didn’t answer and Ho Sung Lee fooled around with them as they followed behind Min Sung.
“I feel like I’m the outcast here.”
A vein popped out of Ho Sung Lee’s horsehead as he twisted his lips from side to side.
***
It didn’t take them very long to get to Aransia Village via the system map.
But before they arrived at the village, they had to make a choice.
They had to decide between hunting to gain more performance points and clearing the quests first.
Min Sung had to make a decision at the crossroads.
“Sir, in most games, it’s most effective to clear the quests than to hunt.”
“But this isn’t a game.”
“That’s true, but you’re not weak, and since your beginning stats are high, you should complete the quests so that you can obtain the benefit of being able to stop the growth of the Iris Tree first.”
Min Sung nodded.
“Good idea. Let’s head to the village…”
Min Sung stopped himself and looked in a certain direction.
Ho Sung Lee looked at Min Sung with a confused face, and a moment later, he understood.
Min Sung was looking at men and women.
One blonde man and two beautiful women.
The man looked handsome and young, but the women looked a little different.
The tall and skinny woman showed off doll-like visuals and pointy ears while the small and cute woman had animal ears.
It was an elf and a cat creature.
Only the man standing between them looked like a normal human.
“Hello.”
The blonde young man smiled and greeted them.
Despite the fact that he wasn’t speaking Korean, English, or any foreign language, they were able to understand everything he was saying.
That was probably a consideration made by the world of Beatrice.
After all, the language watch couldn’t interpret a language that it didn’t know.
“Haha. No need to keep your guard up. We’re novices just like you.”
Novice.
It meant inexperienced, rookie, and beginner, which meant that they were new here as well.
“Is it your first quest to get to Aransia Village?” The young man asked.
Ho Sung Lee stood in front of Min Sung.
“Yes. We’re heading that way,” Ho Sung replied in Min Sung’s place.
“Then how about we travel together? We’re much safer if we travel in big numbers,” the young man said with a smile.
“What do you think?” Ho Sung Lee asked Min Sung.
Min Sung scanned the unfamiliar people with a cold gaze.
“Is there a way we can call the fairy again?” Min Sung asked the young man.
“I’m not sure. I’m also a novice, so I don’t know much about this world.”
There was one thing he was curious about.
He was either a human or an alien from another planet.
He wanted to know if his reputation would go up by killing that alien.
But if he asked that question to these strangers, he couldn’t be sure that they would tell the truth, and he couldn’t kill them recklessly either.
That could lead to a very bad situation.
It was even possible that his reputation would fall to a minus.
“Tell them to get lost.”
In response, Ho Sung Lee delivered the message and continued walking.
After saying goodbye to the 3 men and women, he followed Min Sung.
The 3 men and women watched quietly as Min Sung’s party took off.

“Wow… That’s so cool. Elves and cat creatures. I’ve only seen them in fairy tale books. We just saw different species in this world. Wow, I can’t believe it,” Ho Sung Lee rambled on on their way to Aransia Village.
“Shut up. We’re not here to have fun.”
“Yes, Sir.”
As soon as Ho Sung Lee shut up, they approached Aransia Village.
They saw a small village in the middle of the trees.
Once they got there, their 1st quest would be complete.
It was a relatively easy quest.
[You’ve cleared your first quest.]
[You’ve acquired 50 experience points.]
[Main Quest #2 – Plundered Village – This village was abandoned after being plundered. You must find the culprit and make them face judgment.]
Their second quest appeared.
Just as the quest explained, all of the houses within the village were destroyed, and there were also remnants of a fire.
Even the ground was black due to the burning.
Min Sung scanned the ruins of Aransia Village and knitted his brows.
‘Find the culprit?’
‘It’s not possible for the culprit to still be here on this land where not a single ant can be seen…’
That was what Min Sung thought before raising his head.
The tutorial wasn’t over yet.
There was no way they would have given them such a ridiculous quest.
No matter how playful they might have been, there was no such thing as a game without rules.
The 3 beings they encountered before reaching Aransia Village.
He was certain that they had something to do with the quest.
Min Sung extended his senses in all four directions in order to find them, and 3 beings got caught by Min Sung’s senses.
North.
They were looking their way.
“The 2 people we saw on our way here…”
Min Sung pointed north as he continued, “I think they’re the culprits.”
Ho Sung Lee, Bowl, and Ssol all looked north with shocked faces.
“Keep guard,” said Min Sung before running with a large explosive noise.
At the same time, he took out his Gungnir.
Kaboom!
Along with the sound of thunder, the magic power destroyed the tree that was in Min Sung’s way.
As the tree split into half due to the powerful magic power, the magic power split into all directions.
Min Sung slowed down and looked ahead of him.
He began to see the 3 beings they encountered on their way to Aransia Village.
The young man stood in front of the two women as he smiled with a thin sword in his hand.
He looked completely unfazed by Min Sung’s attack.
