chapter 255
255 – Reunion (2)
Why is Hwang Seong-yeon here?
It didn’t take long for her to have that question answered.
[Pearl Moonlight] Magic and Lycans who have infiltrated the earth.
Enrichten said that the masters of magic were ‘Ludenarch’.
In other words, it means that figures from the Ludenarch School are in this dungeon or have been there from the beginning.
And the Clan has previously shown a connection with the Ludenarch School.
After killing clan master Hwang Dong-yeon, I checked with [Rune Hunter], And it was clear that he had a rune called [Luden Arc Spell], And the ‘Bone Dragon’, the predecessor of my contractor Tyrbond, was completely Luden Arc. It was an undead produced by the school.
Let me say this again….
‘Hwang Seong-yeon is in the same league as Luden Arc.’
The reasoning has become concise.
By some means, the Ludenarch School entered this dungeon, and Hwang Seong-yeon accompanied them.
And the war between Kalak and Barathen…
He is involved in our dungeon raid.
‘I never thought there would be people worse than the Transcendent.’
I never dreamed that ‘existences from another world’ could move and live in this world.
Even the main character is the Ludenarch School, which is considered an evil group.
I think I need to inform the Holder Association and Park Ji-hwan as soon as possible, but there is no suitable way right now.
Sssss-
Kaga River-!!
The swords collide with each other with violent force.
And Hwang Seong-yeon slightly raised the corner of her mouth.
“You seem to have a lot on your mind.”
When I first saw him, he was a cold-blooded person who didn’t seem to shed a single drop of blood even if I stabbed him, but his expression changed a lot after he fought me.
I spoke with great displeasure at the sight of him not welcoming me at all.
“I met an unlucky bastard in an unexpected place.”
“Don’t get upset. “Because all the anxiety in my heart is revealed on the sword.”
“Don’t be rude, you bastard.”
Kaang-!!
Once more, their swords collide as if sparking fire.
On the outside, it looked like they were simply clashing swords with physical force, but inside, there was intense magic swirling around.
The black magic power of the magic sword [Dain Slife] Constantly flowed from Hwang Seong-yeon, and I also poured my magic power into the [Sword of the Penitent] Without sparing any effort.
So that we can kill each other whenever we get the chance.
They were fiercely looking for an opportunity.
“… “You’ve become quite strong.”
Even in the midst of hectic times, Hwang Seong-yeon chants.
He looked slightly surprised as he clashed his swords.
Does this guy want to fight or just stand and talk?
I gritted my teeth and provoked him.
“I used some effort to kill you.”
Actually, there is nothing wrong with what Hwang Seong-yeon said.
It was understandable that he was surprised.
The person I was during the Sweep operation and the person I am now are clearly different.
Combination of newly acquired runes and higher level runes, increase in existing rune proficiency, knowledge learned through the Transcendant and ‘Dragon Power’….
There were various changes, but the biggest change was the ‘ability’.
My current abilities have changed almost like a cataclysmic change.
Both strength and speed exceeded 100, and speed was 95.
All abilities that are not main abilities are in the 60s to 70s.
However, this is a calculation based on simple abilities, and if you use pumping skills such as [Berserk] And [Tolerate], This increases explosively.
Main ability is 180, the rest are around 100.
The abilities of each S-class holder are very different, and the abilities are not that important… In any case, it exceeds the ‘S-class standard ability’, which is commonly referred to as 150.
“… “It’s incredible strength.”
That was why he was able to clash swords with Hwang Seong-yeon, who was presumed to be an S-class holder, without difficulty, and why Hwang Seong-yeon was surprised by the sight.
Kang-! Kang-!
Kaga River-!!
Fight with swords clashing frantically.
The martial skill used is [Brave Wave of Eternity].
A martial art created by mixing all the [Waves sword technique], [Flowing sword technique], And [Ocean current sword technique].
Because only the strengths of the three sword techniques were combined, and the energy encompassing them was the ‘power of the dragon’…
During the battle, the coordination of offense and defense was close to perfect.
When you have to rush quickly, forcefully.
When you need to let it go leisurely, do it lightly.
I made these movements leisurely and received Hwang Seong-yeon’s magic sword.
And inside, I was constantly seeking a way to win.
‘The ultimate skill is… no.’
[True Wave Heavenly Sword], [True Flowing Sword], [Shadow of Distortion]…
I had already used up quite a bit of my main attack skills when rescuing Kim Chae-eun.
The remaining ones are [Knife Rain], [Reverse Gravity], And [Aesthetics of Falling Flowers], Which have not been officially registered yet.
None of the three skills are suitable for dealing with Hwang Seong-yeon.
No, to be precise, the ultimate skill was not a very good option when dealing with Hwang Seong-yeon.
‘We need to find a fundamental solution.’
During the last clearing operation, he showed no signs of hesitation even after being hit squarely with [Shadow of Distortion], The best attack skill I have.
He healed the area hit by the blow like ‘super regeneration’ and later put pressure on me.
What that means is that my ultimate skills don’t really do much damage to Hwang Seong-yeon.
Therefore, a more fundamental solution had to be found.
“… Hmm?”
Sssss-!
And the solution I came up with.
It was divine power.
“Ha pressure… !!”
Pour all the sacred power within your body into the [Sword of the Penitent].
My current divinity level is 66.
It is infinitely insufficient compared to A-level or higher sacred type holders, but it is by no means low for a direct combat type.
This is amplified by adding the [Berserk] And [Tolerance] Skills.
The figure is 114.
In addition, [Confessor’s Sword], Which has high divinity sensitivity, and [Silver Moon Shadow] Rune that increases its level.
The abilities it has are already optimized for divinity support.
It was safe to say that he was a ‘Holy Knight’, a type of special warrior.
‘Divine Slash!’
Use the inherent skill contained in the item, [Divine Slash].
A skill that covers the raised magical power with divine power and throws it in the form of a slash.
Because I had already stored magic power in the sword during the short struggle earlier, all I had to do was convert this magic power into divine power and all I had to do was prepare the skill.
Pot- Paaat-
Koo, kwaaang-!!
A huge amount of divine power pours down like heavy rain.
Holy power can damage the target by itself, but when the target is a curse type such as undead, the effect is doubled.
Hwang Seong-yeon handles the magic sword and magic energy.
For him, [Divine Slash] Is one of the best attacks I can pull off.
‘Arm replacement technique.’
I immediately changed weapons without even having time to catch my breath.
Hwang Seong-yeon was hit by an unexpected slash of divine power, but this should not make us feel at ease.
There was no way he could fall just like this, and he had to continue attacking without stopping to leave no room for a counterattack.
“Hide and throw.”
Sweet!!
Pot- Parbat-
Pababat-!!
The 21 bags of rain in my hand are heading towards the sky…
Soon, they fall from the sky at breakneck speed.
[Secret Secret Art] Is the manifestation of the ultimate skill, [Knife Rain].
Until now, I had used [Divine Slash] And consumed a huge amount of magical power and divine power, but [Knife Rain] Was a pure physical attack skill, so no special preparation was needed.
‘At least we can tie it up.’
At first, I thought it wouldn’t be effective, so I left it out of the question, but now the situation has changed.
If only I could tie him up even just a little bit.
I had to use whatever skills I had.
Even if you push and attack like this, Hwang Seong-yeon has the potential to counterattack.
To shake off that anxiety, I immediately prepared for the third attack.
‘The ending is…’ !!’
Just as he was about to change his weapon to a sword and deliver the final blow.
A little bit of anxiety eventually became reality.
“Swallow the blood.”
All the battles that were fought quickly and quickly were meaningless.
Hwang Seong-yeon withstood all my attacks and used her ultimate skill.
‘Damn it….’
I gritted my teeth and watched the scene before my eyes.
Hwang Seong-yeon’s body, which was in dire straits, begins to recover.
His various cuts and large wounds healed in an instant, and one of his arms, which was about to be cut off, was naturally regenerated and reattached.
Especially the blood that was all over his body and surroundings.
A large amount of blood dyed bright red…
It began to be absorbed into his ‘demon sword’.
A discord of dark energy and blood-red magic.
It was a phenomenon that occurred less than a second after the words were spoken.
This guy is holding the magic sword that organized the entire situation.
He raised his head and slowly approached me.
“Do Jae-hyeon. Aside from the fun, you are an amazing guy.”
“… “What do you mean?”
“It means I accept you even more than before. In such a short period of time, I have grown to the point where I can push myself… “Actually, I can’t believe it even after seeing it.”
f*ck.
Is this kid really a second-year middle school student?
I cursed a lot inside…
For me, it was fortunate that I was able to buy time.
Anyway, I have written almost everything I can write now, and I am the one who is closer to death, not Hwang Seong-yeon.
“My main rune, Hero Slayer, is a unique rune.”
But suddenly.
The guy started talking about his runes.
Hwang Seong-yeon’s main rune has never been revealed to the holder world yet.
It was about the rune called [Hero Slayer].
“The performance of the rune itself is in the form of synergy with a specific item, and the ultimate skill ‘Blood Master’ also has the power to assist that item.”
Hwang Seong-yeon slowly lifted the magic sword and pointed it towards me.
“In other words, the super regeneration that just happened to me is not my ability, but the ability inherent in this demonic sword Dain Slife. When I fought you before, I recovered right away, but today, if I hadn’t used my ultimate skill, even I would have been in danger. “I never thought he would even have the power of a paladin.”
The guy talking about his powers seemed like an idiot, but anyway, this was high-quality information.
Some of the special effects of [Dine Slope].
Damage absorption and super regeneration.
Hwang Seong-yeon’s ultimate skill strengthens all the powers of the magic sword, including him.
It was valuable information that helped take down this guy.
… If only I could take it down.
“So – it is the origin. Let’s fight again, Do Jae-hyeon.”
Hwang Seong-yeon slightly raises the corner of her mouth towards me.
And then he walks towards me while holding the magic sword.
‘Mr… foot.’
I cursed and held the sword tightly.
I have already consumed too much stamina and magic power.
I guess I’ll be able to fight again somehow…
It was now close to impossible to push Hwang Seong-yeon like before.
A truly desperate moment.
If things continue like this, everything I have built so far has been in vain.
And… at that time.
“Dojaehyeoeon! “I’m ready!!”
I heard the welcome voice I had been waiting for.
This is the voice of Enrichten, with whom we discussed the strategy.
Before Kalak’s raid began.
The second operation planned with him, ‘Barracks Defense’.
The details of the operation were surprisingly simple.
A large amount of water magic was poured into this place, located at the bottom of a hill where water could easily accumulate.
Shoot, shoot!!
Kwa, Kwa Kwa Gaga–.
Using both our water attribute wizard and the Barathen wizard unit… An enormous amount of water magic begins to unfold on the battlefield.
-What, what!
-Damn it. It’s a large water spell! Everyone, avoid for a moment!
-Bharaten, you crazy bastards! The magic that they too will be caught up in… !!
In an instant, enough water poured down to cover the entire battlefield, and panicked voices from the Kalak camp broke out here and there.
I also wanted to add strength with [New Wave], But…
It was difficult to use skills in the current situation where we were confronting Hwang Seong-yeon.
Instead.
‘Call of the Covenant.’
Use a much more efficient skill than that.
Magical power at your fingertips.
A body that makes your feet float.
A huge monster that can cover the entire area, which has turned into a river.
-Meet the ally of a great being.
Gwiryong, Aspidochelon.
My contractor, who I needed most in this situation.
It was the beginning of the second round of fighting with him.
