Interim Leader

Jin Tae Kyung continued to fight against the rampaging monsters on the battlefield. His body was wounded, and he felt incredibly tired after enduring a difficult first day, but his spirit never wavered. Deep in his heart, he knew that this struggle was to protect the people he loved and the life he knew.

As the second day arrived, Jin Tae Kyung pressed on with unwavering determination. He swung his sword with incredible speed and strength, disabling the approaching monsters. A sense of relief enveloped him as he surpassed the second day with better results than before.

While resting briefly under the shade of a lush tree, several other warriors approached Jin Tae Kyung, filled with admiration. They acknowledged his courage and skill in battle, not forgetting to praise his dazzling sword. Jin Tae Kyung smiled and nodded in gratitude.

"Truly remarkable, Jin Tae Kyung! You are truly a great warrior," one of the warriors exclaimed in awe.

"Thank you for your praise. However, I couldn't do this without all of your help," Jin Tae Kyung humbly replied.

Jin Tae Kyung then examined his sword, "The Warrior's Blade," which had become his faithful companion. Despite the numerous monsters slain by its edge, not a drop of blood stained the blade. This miracle always left Jin Tae Kyung in awe.

However, amidst his wonder, doubt began to creep into Jin Tae Kyung's mind. Should he be capable of such feats? Was his power real, or merely an illusion? He shook his head, trying to dismiss those doubts.

But in an instant, Jin Tae Kyung felt his sword grow lighter. He looked down, astonished to find the sword suddenly vanished. However, his worry quickly turned to satisfaction as the sword reappeared and rested nearby.

After a brief respite, Jin Tae Kyung decided to assess his status. He learned that his synchronization level with the Myth of the Warrior's Blade was 5%, indicating a strong bond between them. Moreover, he possessed other Myths such as "Eternal Warrior" and "Storm-like Warrior's Attack." Besides his Myths, Jin Tae Kyung had 27 lowest-ranked runes and 2 low-ranked runes as sources of his power.

With a renewed surge of spirit within him, Jin Tae Kyung stood tall. He looked around and saw his comrades still battling against the relentless onslaught of monsters. He knew that many battles still awaited him, but he was undaunted. Armed with the mighty Warrior's Blade and his powerful Myths, he was ready to face any challenge that lay ahead.

"Comrades, let us end this together! We are warriors who will never surrender!" Jin Tae Kyung exclaimed with fervor.

His comrades, hearing his call, quickly responded with cheers and the same unwavering courage. They believed that with Jin Tae Kyung's presence, they had a greater chance of winning this battle.

In his struggle against the evil monsters, Jin Tae Kyung continued to march forward with bravery and unwavering determination. His mighty sword and his revitalizing Myths became his primary weapons in facing one challenge after another. Together with his comrades, they fought against the monsters with unwavering tenacity, risking everything for the greater good and a better life.

After the second battle in Valhalla, Jin Tae Kyung felt a deep sense of satisfaction. He had invested in several runes and experienced an incredible increase in synchronization. The power of his myth flowed strongly within him, giving him newfound confidence and a deep sense of satisfaction for the progress he had made in the fight.

One day, while Jin Tae Kyung was smiling with contentment, a cheerful voice was heard from behind him. Bjorn, his good friend who always had a bright smile on his face, approached him. Jin Tae Kyung and Bjorn exchanged warm greetings, assuring each other that they had survived the recent dangerous situation.

With his playful demeanor, Bjorn immediately inquired about the reason behind Jin Tae Kyung's radiant smile. "What's with your bright smile today, Tae Kyung? Could it be that you're thinking about a captivating Valkyrie?" Bjorn teased, winking his eye.

Jin Tae Kyung laughed and playfully teased back, "Bjorn, only you could come up with such assumptions. But you know, I actually hoped you would come over." He pointed at Bjorn with a friendly smile.

Bjorn raised his eyebrows with an expression of admiration. "Oh? Am I your favorite star now, huh?" he said with a wide grin.

Jin Tae Kyung shook his head while rubbing the back of his head. "That's not what I meant, Bjorn. I'm just grateful to have a friend like you who's always by my side in dangerous battles like this. We've been through so much together."

Bjorn smiled warmly upon hearing Jin Tae Kyung's words. "Jin Tae Kyung, you know, I'm really impressed by your abilities. You're becoming more skilled at harnessing your mythical power and facing difficult challenges. You've even defeated a giant gnoll and led the fighters brilliantly."

Jin Tae Kyung felt a sense of embarrassment and simply shrugged in response to the praise from Bjorn. He didn't like being overly praised, but deep down, he felt happy to hear it.

"Thank you, Bjorn. I wouldn't have come this far without your help and encouragement. We're an inseparable team."

Bjorn sincerely praised and acknowledged Jin Tae Kyung's achievements in battle. They shook hands with the strength of their strong friendship. This story reaffirms the close relationship between the two characters, where their trust, support, and friendship complement each other.

In the midst of a captivating plain, Bjorn, a mysterious leader, pointed into the distance. His eagle-like sharp eyes caught the attention of Jin Tae Kyung, the main character of this story, but Jin Tae Kyung's interest shifted to something equally intriguing. He was taken aback when Bjorn suggested spending the night in a place that could be called ruins.

"This place looks eerie, Bjorn. Why should we spend the night here?" Jin Tae Kyung asked, his face filled with doubt.

Bjorn smiled mysteriously and replied, "Within these ruins, many mysteries and powers remain undisclosed. I feel that something awaits you there, Tae Kyung."

Despite his hesitation, Jin Tae Kyung finally agreed. They entered the ruins and felt the mystical atmosphere enveloping the place. Cracked and dusty walls adorned their surroundings. Just as they found themselves in a calm situation, a loud voice shattered the silence and called out to them.

"Be cautious, what is this?" Jin Tae Kyung said, gripping the hilt of his sword.

Jin Tae Kyung reflexively turned to look at Bjorn, but all he saw was Bjorn shaking his head firmly, indicating that he was not the captain referred to by the voice.

"I think the voice is calling for me," Jin Tae Kyung murmured to himself.

With no other choice, Jin Tae Kyung realized that he was the one being sought by the voice. Awkwardly, he pointed to himself and asked, "Is it me you're looking for?"

The warrior who called him, a "warrior," enthusiastically declared that the Valkyrie was searching for him and invited him to join immediately. Jin Tae Kyung was astonished to hear his name mentioned alongside the Valkyrie, a legendary force believed by many to exist only in myths and legends.

"The Valkyrie? But why are they looking for me?" Jin Tae Kyung asked, puzzled.

The warrior smiled and replied, "We don't know exactly, but there must be a strong reason. The Valkyrie only summons chosen warriors, and you are one of them. Come, join us."

Although Jin Tae Kyung had temporarily led troops before, he didn't recognize the faces of the warriors, including the one who had shouted earlier. With a slight sense of confusion, Jin Tae Kyung followed the warrior, walking proudly toward the destiny that awaited him.

Before Jin Tae Kyung departed, Bjorn congratulated him and laughed. "Congratulations, Tae Kyung. I knew you would find a great adventure there. Don't forget what we've been through together," Bjorn said, patting Jin Tae Kyung's shoulder as a sign of appreciation before turning around and leaving him.

With determined steps, Jin Tae Kyung followed the spirited warriors. He experienced a mix of excitement and anxiety. However, a strong determination to face the unknown destiny burned in his heart.

"May this be the beginning of an extraordinary adventure," Jin Tae Kyung whispered to himself as he stepped forward, heading towards an unknown path.
