Auto Hunting With My Clones - Chapter 198
< His last (2) >
Raven looked at Bahrain and replied.
– Even so, it’s surprising. What do you like and tell your disciple?
– Don’t you know too? That the bowl can convey it. To be honest, I want to tell the prince. However, Your Highness’s accomplishments are not ready to be accepted yet… That’s why I thought of your disciple as the right person.
Yes.
Bahrain made the decision to pass on his mana core to Sang-woo, not anyone else.
What moved his heart?
-Um… He’s the right person…
-As you know, your student’s power is amazing. Probably to the point where even if I handed down mana cores, it wouldn’t help much. But when I saw it, I thought. If I owed a strong man like that… then it wouldn’t be helpful to His Highness the Prince…
Raven nodded inwardly at Bahrain’s answer.
‘As expected, is the age of a decrepit hero looking ahead one step further?’
Manacore is more important than life to knights and wizards.
However, Bahrain was willing to give up this manacore easily.
It will disappear anyway when you die, so what do you do to save it?
Instead, he was trying to use his Mana-Core to turn a strong man named Sang-woo on the side of the prince.
‘As expected, it’s like Bahrain, a knight among knights.’
He was a positional figure who rose to the rank of leader of the Imperial Guard with only the most standard swordsmanship and basic mana cores without any special swordsmanship.
Bahrain, who went further and became a Grand Sword Master, was truly a myth among ordinary knights.
On top of that, his supreme loyalty to the emperor and the imperial family became a model for all knights and was regarded as a textbook.
Of course, it was only in his later years that his status as an ordinary knight with no connections got in the way, and he degenerated into a mere escort knight protecting the first prince, who was a candidate for the crown prince, but his skills were genuine.
That’s why Raven realized that Bahrain’s offer was an excellent opportunity for a disciple.
-Hmm… I understand why. Perhaps the disciple won’t refuse either.
-Is that so?
-Who would refuse the opportunity to receive the Grand Sword Master’s mana core?
-Right. heh heh heh
Bahrain laughed out loud.
However, that smile was somehow bittersweet.
that your life is at stake.
And anxiety and worry that his master will be left alone.
It was all contained in that smile.
‘Bahrain…’
At that time, Raven couldn’t hold back his regret and felt bitter.
Sang-woo’s alter ego, who was quietly dazed next to Raven and Bahrain to open the sub-space.
The eyes of the clone came into focus and the mouth opened.
-Hey Bahrain Knight, are you passing on the manacore?
Bahrain was slightly surprised by the alter ego’s words that suddenly interrupted after being still like a doll.
It is because they are not yet accustomed to this unreal existence.
– It’s amazing every time I see it. Are you there?
-yes. Here you are. haha. I’m just a human, so feel free to talk.
-I thought it was a doll… heh heh. Anyway, what you heard is correct. I want to pass on my manacore to you.
Bahrain spoke directly.
-You said to deliver the mana core… And the price is to help the prince, right?
-That’s right.
-Hmm…. Sang
-woo, the alter ego who seems to be immersed in thoughts for a while.
Sang-woo, who had a thoughtful expression on his face, opened his mouth soon.
-great. Get a mana core and help.
– Is it really?
Bahrain brightens complexion.
-yes. Really.
Sang-woo grinned.
He would know that Bahrain would die if he handed over the Mana Core, but Sang-woo was laughing for some reason.
Perhaps he seemed to be thinking about something.
* * *
That evening.
Sang-woo, who decided to learn Mana-Core from Bahrain, gathered in a room in the mansion with him and Raven.
As time passed, Bahrain’s mana was being consumed, so they were in a hurry to transfer the mana core.
-Are you ready?
-yes.
Sang-woo, who sat still, answered Bahrain’s question from behind.
Actually, there wasn’t much to prepare for.
I just need a level of tension to prepare for the upcoming flow of mana.
And Bahrain, who was sitting behind Sang-woo’s back, was well aware of that fact.
So he put his hand on Sang-woo’s back as soon as he finished speaking.
Chin-
His hand touched Sang-woo’s solid back.
Before long, a tremendous flow of mana began to rise from there.
‘Um…’
Sang-woo was slightly surprised by the mana flowing through his back like a raging wave.
‘Did you say Grand Sword Master? It’s more amazing than I thought.’
His hands and wrists were flowing mana as if they had become one huge vein of water.
Because of this, mana poured out at an unimaginable speed.
If the state of the transfer target is immature, the pressure and momentum of the mana might tear the body to the point of not knowing.
‘Not me.’
For Hana Sang-woo, it was just comfortable.
It was because the mana already inherent in him was enormous, and as he reached the state, mana flowed steadily through his body.
[Horsepower has risen by 0.001.]
[Horsepower has risen by 0.001.]
[Horsepower has risen by 0.001.]
[Horsepower has risen by 0.001.]
…….
[Horsepower has reached the limit.]
From Bahrain The flow of mana was so great that in an instant, Sang-woo’s magic power reached the second limit of 1000.
Now, Sang-woo’s highest ability has become magical power.
However, the increase in mana did not stop just because magic power reached its limit.
Without stopping there, as mana came over from Bahrain, the total amount of mana that was not displayed on the system continued to increase.
‘But this is amazing. It feels like it’s watered down.’
Sang-woo contemplated the mana of Bahrain that came through his body.
The non-attribute pure mana that came through his hands was mixing with Sangwoo’s storm core and magma core mana.
Usually, when salt water is mixed with water, it becomes mild.
However, the concentration of mana was maintained mysteriously as the non-attribute mana (water) changed to take on the attribute (salt water).
Bahrain’s mana, which flows in like that and mixes with the flow of Sangwoo’s mana core, changing its properties.
Sang-woo thought things were going smoothly.
‘But it’s a bit ambiguous.’
Maybe it’s because it’s a bit sore?
He suddenly decided to try something new.
‘Let’s collect only non-attributes.’
Bahrain’s non-attribute mana.
It was decided to separately collect this mana, which is easy to change into any attribute.
Sang-woo immediately began to gather Bahrain’s non-attribute mana into a circle next to the magma core located inside the storm core.
Then, the mana of Bahrain gathered like beads.
‘This is quite difficult.’
However, it was not easy to maintain the non-attribute because of the nature of non-attribute mana, which tends to change easily when it meets mana of other attributes.
‘I’ll have to float it away from the magma core for now.’
In the end, Sangwoo avoided the magma core located near Myeongchi and moved the non-attribute mana mass downward.
It was the lower part of the navel, commonly known as Danjeon.
It was easy to accumulate mana because it was a space that felt quite wide when contemplating the body through imagery.
And as Sang-woo judged, it became much easier to maintain the non-attribute mana as he moved away from the magma core.
Of course, the non-attribute mana was inside the storm core that covers the whole body, but like the calm in the storm, the non-attribute mana was not greatly affected inside the storm core, and the storm core mana engine skill itself reached a certain level, so the non-attribute mana was easy to distinguish from
‘done.’
How much time had passed like that?
The mana flowing into Bahrain completely stopped, and his mana was completely settled near Sangwoo’s Danjeon.
Then Sang-woo opens his eyes.
Unlike before, there was no phenomenon of eye light emanating from the eyes.
The glow in the eyes after mana training or transfer was a phenomenon in which mana that was not fully captured was released.
In other words, this time Sang-woo perfectly captured Bahrain’s mana, so the light in his eyes did not appear.
And at the same time Sang-woo opened his eyes, he quietly stood up and looked behind him.
-…Am I still alive…?
There was Bahrain looking at Sangwoo and Raven with a slightly hazy face.
Bahrain obviously poured all the manacore.
But he was still alive.
In a pretty neat way.
The reason was the alter ego that was pouring holy power and recovery skills from behind Bahrain.
[Sacred Power]
[Great Heal]
[Recovery]
…….
It was in the middle of pouring a huge amount of healing with the three clones clinging to it.
-yes. You are still alive.
Sang-woo grinned.
Because this was the way he thought of saving Bahrain.
‘It goes as I thought.’
The reason why you lose your life if you lose your mana core is because as the mana in your body drains, even the minimum amount of basic mana that maintains life comes with it.
But what if it replenishes mana or energy to sustain life?
‘Then I won’t die.’
And Sang-woo had excellent skills in maintaining life.
Just ‘power’.
Bless, the master of holy power, had a recovery skill so powerful that he could resurrect a person who had just died.
As far as Sang-woo knows, the energy of holy power is the closest to life energy.
So, when Sang-woo used this skill, Bahrain was still alive despite the loss of his mana core.
Sang-woo looked at Bahrain with a proud heart because it was as expected.
– That’s great. disciple
Raven, who was protecting Sang-woo and Bahrain from any external danger while transferring mana.
He was surprised to see that Sang-woo saved Bahrain.
I’ve never seen a case where a mana core was passed on and still alive.
-What. ha ha ha.
Smirking Sangwoo.
Bahrain was also bewildered and dazed.
-He didn’t die…
He quietly clenched his fists.
Kwak-
One, now all the mana is drained, and the only thing left is the old man’s body.
All I could feel in his fist was the weak muscular strength typical of an old man.
Have you felt the power for a while and become sentimental?
Bahrain, who was still holding his fist like that.
Tears flowed from his eyes.
Was it because he was sad that he lost his power?
It wasn’t.
-…Jung Sang-woo.
-yes?
– Thank you.
– What is it? I’m more grateful. You gave me all mana.
-no. He was going to die soon anyway. But what a blessing it was to be able to see His Highness, even for just one more day. I feel like I got a second life.
The old man’s face was full of gratitude.
His face showed an expression as if he wanted to follow Sang-woo right now if it weren’t for his master.
-ha ha ha. live long
– Thank you. Thank you so much.
Bahrain reached out and grabbed Sang-woo’s hand tightly.
It felt wrinkled and rough.
It was a wrinkle that made you feel the ups and downs of his rough life.
For some reason, Sang-woo’s nose frowned.
‘I thought he was an eccentric old man, but he seems to be better than I thought…’
Sangwoo had a slightly positive opinion of Bahrain.
Raven looked at the two of them.
he opened his mouth
– That’s good. Sir Bahrain. So what are you going to do next? Will you follow the prince?
Bahrain shook his head at Raven’s question.
-no. It’s okay. Earth is also dangerous because there are many monsters, but didn’t they say it’s safer than here? And since this dependable young man will be with us, I feel relieved about His Highness the Prince.
It was an unexpected Bahraini word.
Raven and Sang-woo, who knew they would definitely follow the prince, were surprised by Bahrain’s words.
Looking at them, Bahrain continued to speak.
-Instead…if it doesn’t bother me, I’d like to stay here and leave my swordsmanship behind.
