Hunter Academy’s Greatest War God - Chapter 353
Episode 353 Shin
Yoo-seong’s hands rippled with beautiful golden waves, and the broken bones reattached and the torn skin quickly began to recover to its former shape.
– To lend my powers to a human rather than a contractor… It’s all for Lorelei’s sake.
The woman’s voice that Shin Yoo-seong hears now is the voice of Chronoa, the goddess of time who signed a contract with Lorelai.
‘It’s recovering not only the wounds but also the lost stamina.’
As long as Chronoa, the goddess of time, is helping Shin Yoo-seong, if the battle flows into a long-term battle, time is on Shin Yoo-seong’s side.
‘Even with Lorelei’s help… Originally, Master was an opponent that could never be defeated…’
In this case, there was quite a bit of hope. No matter how similar Yu Won-hak looks, the limit of the double body is that it embodies the teacher Shin Yoo-seong remembers.
Shin Yuseong was truly grateful that he had never seen his master’s full potential.
In addition, if you talk differently, all the attacks that Yoo Won-hak uses are techniques Shin Yoo-seong has seen before.
cooong!
Yoo Won-hak kicked the ground. The soil that couldn’t overcome the force bounced back and the ground dug in the shape of a foot. As soon as Yoo Won-hak stepped out of the soil, boom-! and a roaring sound.
Shin Yoo-seong thought as he watched Yoo Won-hak, who appeared in front of his eyes in an instant and stretched out his fist with rotational power.
‘It’s definitely an action I’ve seen before.’
In terms of punching out, it looks like a similar movement to other punches, but Shin Yoo-seong did not shake.
Even if he is a double body, he is his teacher. Right now, Yu Won-hak, even his posture and breathing, were all the same as that day.
[It’s not easy even for a martial artist who has devoted his entire life to training. Yooseong, you already have no thoughts in your fist. What a great thing.]
Shin Yuseong’s eyes now overlapped the image of the teacher who taught him a long time ago and the image of his clone.
[Look closely!]
Wedge!
Yu Won-hak’s fast-surging fists did not contain any worries or thoughts like the previous teachings.
[If you dare to put your anguish and worries into your fist, your opponent will not be matched. It is only natural that a sword filled with hesitation cannot cut anything.]
Shin Yuseong erased all thoughts from his head, just like his teacher taught him. He surrendered himself to the flow and faced the rushing fist.
‘see.’
A single straight line stretched out like a red thread connected, like a sharp spear.
[It is not the trees that endure the storm to the end. Rather, boasting of its firmly extended roots, the more you endure, the more you will fall down first.]
Shin Yuseong recalled his teacher’s teachings. If the shield was erected squarely to endure, the shield would break and be destroyed, but if the axis of power was twisted and spilled at an angle, the story was different.
[It is the reed-like people who rely on the wind to endure even in the fierce storm.]
Shin Yoo-seong’s hand touched Yu Won-hak’s fist. It was clear that the heavy force heading in a straight line would shatter Shin Yoo-seong’s arm with even the slightest mistake.
However, Shin Yuseong wrapped that power in his palm and let it go.
It was an attack from the sky-like teacher, but Shin Yoo-seong was able to let go because he had the teacher’s appearance and teachings that he had seen before.
cooong!
Shin Yoo-seong took a deep breath as the heavy power that had nowhere to go flowed to the ground. The one fighting against himself right in front of his eyes is Shin Yuseong’s inner self, a being formed out of fear. It was an existence created from the fear that it would never be able to win against Yoo Won-hak.
‘I was thinking stupid things. What I’m dealing with is Lewis’ spell, not Master’s.’
It was an infinitely strong opponent in battle, but in the end, the essence was just a single spell.
– I finally realized.
Perhaps thanks to reaching the truth, Shin Yuseong heard Cronoa’s relieved voice.
– Trust your choices. Lorelai and I will buy some time.
Fire!
A golden landscape spreads in a slow world as if time has stopped. Gold encroached on the surroundings, driving away the achromatic colors that had lost their light.
Deeng-!
The sound of a huge grandfather clock.
Tick! Tick! Tick!
Countless second hand sounds.
“This is my last remaining strength… then please…”
Lorelai, as if she couldn’t even maintain the current status quo, gripped onto something pathetically and left her other arm hanging weakly.
Saaa –
Shin Yuseong endowed his eyes with mana.
The world Shin Yoo-seong sees now is the blue light of natural objects and the red light emitted by Lewis’s technique. And Lorelei’s golden light was mixed.
What Shin Yoo-seong is doing now is to separate the red thread from reality and cut off the magic.
‘To cancel the spell with Mana Resonance, the same wavelength and the same amount of mana are required.’
Shin Yoo-seong stretched out his hand toward Yoo Won-hak’s body in the slow world. It was like precision surgery.
‘In order to reconstruct the formula at will, I cut mana… and inject it at the same time.’
Shin Yoo-seong shouldn’t waste a single hand gesture in the long and short time Lorelai earned.
Originally, the two manas with different properties had to be separated like water and oil. However, as time slowed down, Shin Yuseong’s blue mana quickly permeated the red mana wrapped around Yoo Won-hak’s body.
This is clear evidence that Shin Yuseong sent mana with the same wavelength as Lewis’s technique.
Shin Yoo-seong was a disciple who learned everything about Yu-Won-Hak, but the current technology using Mana Resonance was a method that even his teacher Yu-Won-Hak did not know.
This was something that broke the Hunters’ common sense. It was a method full of only Shin Yoo-seong, who awakened his super senses by strengthening his concentration, which is his characteristic.
Seobik!
In the tangled skein, Shin Yoo-seong splits the red line. He could feel his hand digging into the thick muscles of his clone body.
“It is all thanks to your teachings. Master.”
After Shin Yoo-seong’s gratitude, the slow time began to return to its place.
The last moment that decided the game.
“…You’ve grown quite a bit.”
Yu Won-Hak, who was obviously only an alter ego, smiled at Shin Yoo-Sung. Shin Yuseong smiled as he really looked like his teacher.
“It’s all thanks to you.”
The ceremony was broken.
Red mana leaked out of Yu Won-Hak’s body like blood. Mana, which had ascended as if evaporating, suddenly became red carnation petals and flew away.
Now, only Lorelai and Shin Yoo-seong are left in the forest.
Ugh-!
The ground in the forest cracked with a roar, perhaps because the spell was broken.
“…you really did it.”
Perhaps it was because she poured out all her mana with Barrier and Time Stop just before, Lorelai grinned helplessly as if she couldn’t even control herself.
“Lorelai you and Cronoa help. And it wouldn’t have been possible without Master’s teachings.”
Yooseong Shin expressed his gratitude to Lorelei. And that was the truth, not humility.
No matter how much it was an alter ego, it would have been impossible to successfully perform Mana Resonance against Yu Wonhak, who boasts tremendous speed, without Lorelai’s help.
Weeing!
A portal was created in front of them.
Leaving the collapsing forest behind, Shin Yoo-seong and Lorelai slowly walked to the exit.
* * *
Lorelai felt dizzy.
After passing through the portal, we arrived at the entrance of Ruin Castle, which we had been searching for so long.
Knock gun!
The white rabbit, who appeared to be a guide, bowed his head very politely toward Shin Yoo-seong and Lorelai.
“Congratulations on coming to Ruin Castle. But the only thing that passed the test and destroyed the spell… is only the path to the stars.”
6th grade hunter Shoichi and Eliza challenged the path of the stars Adela and Angela chose the path of the sun. The shocking story that all of them had failed Lorelai looked around.
However, from the beginning of the entrance, it was impossible to find a comrade among the scattered ice statues.
“Haha, are you even looking for a colleague?”
The guide giggled at Lorelai’s appearance and pointed to the icy hallway where the red carpet was laid out.
“Don’t worry. It’s true that your colleagues are frozen, but Louise is a merciful person. You wouldn’t put a brave challenger in a place like this.”
Pretending to Lorelai and Shin Yoo-seong to follow, the guide started to lead.
“Come quickly. Louis is waiting for you.”
Shin Yoo-seong and Lorelai followed the rabbit without slowing down to see if there was a trap, but there were no traps in the hallway.
“By the way, you two are the first to pass after the silver-haired monster.”
Maybe that was normal.
Passing Lewis’s test means that you have proven your skills as a level 6 hunter or higher. That wasn’t the skill to fall into a lame trap.
“The only person who can face a challenger with the same skills as you two… In this castle of Ruin, only Louis-sama must be the only one.” After reaching the depths of
Kiik-
Ruin Castle, the guide finally opened the ice door. Shin Yuseong’s eyes saw ice soldiers lined up in a row.
And standing at the end of the long red carpet leading from the entrance is a huge throne.
Tuuk-
But it wasn’t Louis sitting on the throne.
“hi?”
It is none other than Adela who is smiling happily with her chin resting on her chin.
“…Adela?”
Shin Yoo-seong asked back with an expression that was hard to believe, and Adela carefully examined her body with a hand mirror made of ice.
From the back of the hand to the arm as well as the face. From her feet to her legs, she inspected each one with a satisfied expression, without missing anything.
“For a human being, this much… to have powers worthy of cold. I really like it… It was also worth keeping an eye on.”
Adela’s body is clearly in front of Shin Yoo-seong’s eyes, but what dwells in it is not the Adela that Shin Yoo-seong knew.
What Adela now dwells in is Louise, the Witch of Winter. She looks at the challenger in despair.
“…Thank you, thanks to all of you who challenged me fearlessly, I was born anew.”
He smiled and said hello.
