Christmas Event: Rudolph's Demise

People were unable to hide their bewilderment at the suddenly summoned Minotaur.

The monster that appeared while running the event.

To calm those who were hesitating to assume battle posture, I immediately climbed onto the Minotaur's body.

People who saw my action finally realized it was a summoned beast and began to relax their guard a bit.

"Here. Let's blow a proper snow."

The enormous Minotaur swept up the snow on the ground all at once and started throwing it at Rudolph.

Whoosh! Thud!

The damage was on a completely different level from the people barely making snowballs and throwing them. It was enough to create a snowstorm.

Rudolph's health dropped instantly.

Compared to the people who had struggled for 5 minutes to shave off just 1% health, the number dropped drastically.

"Hope!"

"Let's throw more!"

Actually, the people who had given up after 5 minutes of trying to catch Rudolph.

Honestly, wasn't that the case?

If after 5 minutes of pouring all their strength into making snowballs, their HP only dropped 1%, the result was obvious.

But thanks to the appearance of the Minotaur, hope began to appear little by little, and some people started using skills to throw snow instead of just making snowballs.

[HP : 87%] -> [HP : 77%] -> [HP : 53%]

Rudolph's HP decreased rapidly.

After about 15 minutes.

Now, looking at the HP that had only about 20% left, people began a full-scale attack.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

Including those who made snowballs without any other abilities and those who used their abilities.

When Rudolph's HP reached 10%.

Rudolph's nose began to turn redder and redder.

'What is this?'

Rudolph's nose was so hot it resembled lava.

And the strong heat emanating from that nose.

Sizzle.

"What's going on? The snow is melting!"

The snow approaching Rudolph melted due to the heat from its nose and didn't even touch its body.

Moreover, that wasn't the only problem.

Sizzle.

Even the snow around was gradually melting away.

The only weapon to catch that Rudolph was disappearing.

'Damn it. What am I supposed to do if this is the case!' The difficulty of catching Rudolph was so insane that it was hard to tell if it was to catch or not catch this Rudolph.

Starting to identify Rudolph's weakness.

- Weakness identified.

- The weakness is 'snow'.

'Chet. As expected.'

I used Weakness Identification just in case, but it was a skill that told me the obvious weakness.

I thought maybe something different would appear if I leveled it up, but I still couldn't level this skill.

'Will I just not be able to catch it?'

I thought that after the last damage I entered, the Rudolph with only 5% HP left would not be caught and the last event would end.

But at that moment.

Whoosh!

‍‍‌‌⁠​​⁠‌​​‍​​‍​‌​⁠‍‌‍⁠⁠‌⁠‌‍‌‍‌‌‌‍⁠​‌​‌​‌‍‌‌‌⁠‍​​‌‍⁠‌‌⁠⁠

A snowball thrown by someone.

Thud!

A snowball flying precisely at Rudolph.

But it melted due to the heat.

'Huh?'

All people's gazes focused on that snowball.

It didn't reduce Rudolph's HP, but there was something more important than that.

Despite the fact that all the snow around had melted away, where did that snowball come from?

Let's find the source of that snowball. There was a certain woman there.

'Huh? Who is that woman?'

The man next to that woman.

Upon thinking, Nam-hoon, who hadn't properly greeted in the Hidden Park, was there.

"Mr. Nam-hoon!"

As I approached Nam-hoon after getting down from the Minotaur, Nam-hoon who saw me greeted happily.

"Ah! Because I had to leave in a hurry because of my girlfriend earlier, I couldn't ‍‍‌‌⁠​​⁠‌​​‍​​‍​‌​⁠‍‌‍⁠⁠‌⁠‌‍‌‍‌‌‌‍⁠​‌​‌​‌‍‌‌‌⁠‍​​‌‍⁠‌‌⁠⁠properly thank you."

The person next to Nam-hoon was probably the girlfriend he was looking for.

"Hello! My name is Seol-hwa."

"Kim Min-seong here."

"I heard the story. You saved someone in danger, right? Thank you so much."

"No, not at all. More importantly, what did you do a moment ago?"

"Ah, that?"

Gratitude can be received later.

Now, since there wasn't much time left to catch that Rudolph, we went straight to the main topic.

"My job is Snow Woman, so I can make snow, but it doesn't seem to reach Rudolph."

Probably one of Seol-hwa's abilities was to make snow.

But Rudolph's heat was so powerful that even if snow was made, it would melt quickly.

'Wait a minute, thinking about it?'

One of the abilities of the Grim Reaper's Cloak came to mind.

The cloak that could put a protective barrier on objects.

I wondered if it was necessary to put a protective barrier on objects rather than people, but what if I put it on snow?

"Miss Seol-hwa, can you make some snow?"

"Yes, making it isn't difficult."

- Snow Generation

With a small gesture from Seol-hwa, snow piled up densely on the ground.

But the snow that was melting immediately due to the heat, I quickly used the technique I got from the cloak.

- Barrier Generation

Whoong!

At the same time, a small barrier appeared over the snow made by Seol-hwa, forming a protective barrier surrounding the snow.

"...Wow! The snow doesn't melt? How did you do it?"

Clearly, it was protected from the heat.

The snow wrapped in the barrier did not melt even from Rudolph's nose heat.

"Here. Then let's finish it with this snow!"

With Seol-hwa's ability, I couldn't make that much snow, but it was enough to deal with the low-health Rudolph.

Now, the remaining time was 1 minute.

When some snow had accumulated, I threw all that snow at Rudolph with the Minotaur.

[HP : 5%] -> [HP : 0%]

Pew! Pew! Pew! Bang! Bang! Bang! (Crack!)

When Rudolph's HP reached 0, Rudolph cracked and disappeared, and huge fireworks burst from the spot like tearing the sky.

Was it decorating the end of the event splendidly?

Beautifully bursting fireworks.

It was so beautiful and pretty that it surpassed even the grand fireworks festival.

It was the perfect situation for a massive level up.

Again, obtaining the Rainbow Grade Gift Box.

This was so easy to obtain the Rainbow Grade Gift Box that I wondered if this was good.

- All events have ended.

- Please look forward to many loves for the next event.

After throwing gifts all the way to the end, the Christmas event ended.

For now, Nam-hoon and Seol-hwa once again expressed gratitude to me and parted ways, and I arrived at our house in Daegu with Dad, the kids, and Elena.

"Mom. You're here now?"

Medusa welcoming me.

Although she teases like this, she was probably keeping the house well.

Wakja-jikkeul. Noisy. Noisy.

Although it was a pretty big house, many people coming in made the house feel small and bustling.

Still, Mom and Dad seemed not to dislike this.

After this incident happened, almost no interaction with people, and just staying quietly at home, Mom and Dad who actually liked it.

"Here! Everyone, let's eat."

There was a Level 2 food store nearby, so Mom and Dad were getting quite delicious foods.

"Wow! Tangsuyuk!"

"Chicken!"

"Pizza too! And there, cola!"

As all kinds of delicious foods were arranged on the table, everyone, though their bodies were tired from doing the event, moved their arms quickly.

"Kruu!"

The kids eating deliciously.

Elena also, though it ‍‍‌‌⁠​​⁠‌​​‍​​‍​‌​⁠‍‌‍⁠⁠‌⁠‌‍‌‍‌‌‌‍⁠​‌​‌​‌‍‌‌‌⁠‍​​‌‍⁠‌‌⁠⁠was the first time seeing food, her eyes changed after eating chicken.

The power of the chicken god who made elves fall in love was felt strongly.

"You aren't eating?"

"I'm full."

Mom, who usually couldn't live without dead or dying foods, asked when I didn't touch the food in front of me.

But I didn't crave those foods at all.

It was probably due to the Predator's instinct.

"This is delicious too, but Master's cooking seems the best."

"Yes. That really tastes good."

The kids also seemed to open their eyes to my cooking's taste.

"What is that?"

"Haha. That... that kind of thing, a bit irrational..."

But I couldn't say "Monster Cooking" to Mom, who usually hated weird things and would turn her nose up at them.

"By the way, Master! Aren't you going to open the box you received?"

"Yes. We're curious."

"Shall I open it?"

"Yes!"

Everyone seemed curious about the Rainbow Grade Gift Box.

Dad also, secretly expecting what was in there, came closer to me.

"Here. Then, open it."

- The Rainbow Grade Gift Box opens.

Bang!

The box opened with a splendid effect.

"Wow! Insane. It's 5-star."

"Exactly!"

The item that came out as expected from the Rainbow Grade Gift Box was amazing.

Moreover, one strange point was the phrase that enchanting was possible.

'Enchanting.'

Anyone who played the game would easily know this part.

The ability to add additional abilities to items.

Since it was the first time it appeared, it was necessary to check.

"Master! Open the other one too!"

"Yes!"

"Okay. Stop whining."

When such a good thing came out from the first box, I couldn't help but expect what would come from the other box.

Two Rainbow Grade Gift Boxes I had.

I opened the box with anticipation of what would come this time.

- The Rainbow Grade Gift Box opens.

Bang!

Again, this time with a splendid effect, the box opened.

But this time, something was different.

Instead of a white egg the size of an ostrich egg, there was an egg in the gift box.

"What is this?"

At the same time, ‍‍‌‌⁠​​⁠‌​​‍​​‍​‌​⁠‍‌‍⁠⁠‌⁠‌‍‌‍‌‌‌‍⁠​‌​‌​‌‍‌‌‌⁠‍​​‌‍⁠‌‌⁠⁠Mom's eyes sparkled greatly.

Our Mom who can't live without eggs.

"Oh my, is this for eating!"

"No!"

"No what? Look, it's an ostrich egg! I'll cook it deliciously for you!"

"Ah! Mom!"

So, we all struggled for a long time to calm down Mom, who was excited about the ostrich(?) egg.
