Ji-Hoon scrutinized the distant monster from his elevated vantage point, muttering to himself, "With that dark blue skin and hair, it must be around ★×8. It should increase the domain more than those ★×10 goblins."
As the gorgon approached the tied man, its drool landing on his skin, Guardian's voice echoed in Ji-Hoon's head: {The successor should note if the man dies, the changed quest will be called off.}
Ji-Hoon sighed, responding, "You're still insisting the guy be saved, huh? Well, it doesn't matter; it's not like I'll be directly saving him anyway."
"Okay! Time to make my entrance," he declared. Stepping back, he crouched down, hands on the rooftop, adopting a pose akin to Olympic runners. Time seemed to slow as he took in a deep breath, then he let it out. His eyes gleamed brightly as he suddenly sprinted, reaching the building's edge, propelling himself with monstrous force that shattered the structure as he leaped into the air.
