Leveling With The Gods - Chapter 550
[Level Up with the Gods Side Story Episode 26]
* * *
Jeopuk-.
A second participant steps into the circle.
[The final round of the Heavenly World War begins.]
[If you give up or faint and die, you are automatically eliminated.]
[There is no time limit.]
Asura’s gaze turned to the participant who entered the circle without fear.
A man holding a large bow in his hand and starting to pull the empty bowstring.
“Is this it?”
The corners of Asura’s mouth rose at the appearance of Lee Ye.
“There’s a not-so-bad guy among the small children.”
“I try to make sure there is nothing lacking as a partner.”
Lee Ye was nervous.
Although I wasn’t radiating any energy or vitality, I couldn’t help but feel pressure when I saw Asura in front of me.
It was natural.
Asura.
A high ranker ranked 9th.
‘Is this your first time dealing with a single-digit high ranker?’
It was his first time fighting an opponent of that caliber.
Tension and fear.
Nevertheless, Lee Ye stepped forward.
If it ends like this, what will happen to the promise with Kim Yu-hoon?
‘If not me, no one will come forward.’
I thought it would be impossible to win anyway.
In the first place, his goal was to get a clue about the elixir, and it was not the goal of becoming a general or winning a prize.
In that case, time had to be taken so that the competition would not end like this.
‘I don’t know what that guy wants…’
Geuggeukgeuk-.
A bowstring pulled tautly.
‘I’ll buy you some time here.’
The moment you let go of the drawn bowstring.
Wow!
Tuhwa-!
An arrow made of magic passed by Asura’s head.
“It’s not in my power to fight against you, so-”
Pat.
Iye’s body returned to Asura’s back.
“I’ll go with all my might from the beginning.”
Boom!
The power of each shot was comparable to the javelin throwing skills of most rankers.
Firing those arrows rapidly, Lee Ye circled around Asura.
Pababababa.
Countless arrows raining down.
Asura’s. The new form became blurred and dispersed like a mirage.
Lee Ye’s eyes moved.
Just because it seemed to disappear, it doesn’t mean it really disappeared.
‘Where is it?’
I pulled the bowstring and moved the direction of the arrowhead.
I turned from the direction where Asura disappeared to find the real location of the guy.
I listened to the sign.
At that moment.
Saa-.
“It’s not that bad.”
A cool blade entered the corner of his neck.
Hearing the voice of Asura that came with him, Lee Ye quickly turned around and swung his bow.
Yep!
Lee Ye’s body flew backwards with an explosion sound that felt like his eardrums were going to explode.
“Big…. “
Jerk, Jeer-.”
A moan escaped from the impact that was sent to my wrist.
For a moment, I had the illusion that my throat was being cut off.
Maybe that would have happened if the reaction had been a little slower.
I briefly wondered if I should give up like this.
“…I’m feeling awkward.”
Lee Ye pulled the bowstring again.
I widened the distance and concentrated my strength in my eyes.
Asura is holding two swords from afar without closing the distance.
It was obvious that he had let his guard down.
A ranker who uses a sword against a bowman does not close the distance.
“okay.”
Wow-.
Lee Ye’s eyes lit up as he pulled the bowstring and pointed it toward the sky.
“Let’s see where we can avoid everything.”
* * *
Papak paba baba-!
Arrows rained down from the sky.
With Asura’s black eyes, he struck down countless arrows one by one.
From my perspective, there was nothing else to say other than that it was fascinating.
Lee Ye, who shot all those arrows by himself, was amazing, but Asura, who shot them all down without making a single mistake, was even more amazing.
“Oh, that’s huge?”
“Do you see all that? “How do you get rid of it?”
“The art of shooting an archery is also amazing. “You’re pushing Asura.”
“I guess it’s because I’m slowly accumulating stamina.”
“Still, it’s great. There is a difference in ranking, but to this extent…”
Pabababak!
Arrows rained down on the ground again. As
Asura’s new form disappeared, Iye’s field of vision expanded widely.
The battle was repeated in the same way.
Now where is the sword? I felt like I knew if the sword was going to fly.
Shhh.
I turned the bow to follow the direction from which the cool sword was flying.
This time, the goal was not simply to block.
That’s it.
The bowstring was pulled towards Asura’s head.
At that moment.
Lose . Aaaang-!
Jeong-!
An arrow fired at Asura and Asura’s sword blocking it.
Lee Ye’s eyes, who had been thinking of giving up his flesh to take his bones, widened.
‘Are you going to stop this from that distance?’
Pod-. Lee
Ye, who hastily widened the distance, reflexively pulled the bowstring again.
Giiiiing-.
Firrrrrrr-.
Golden flames spreading through the arrowhead.
[‘Arrow that pierced the sun’ begins.]
[‘Sunset’ Loads.]
Only nine shots in a lifetime.
The only skill allowed only to Lee Ye.
‘I never thought I’d use this here, but-.’
There will probably never be a time when this one shot is needed like now.
Lee Ye fired the fifth sunset he had loaded at Asura.
Flash!
As Lee Ye’s arrow was fired, a dazzling light erupted throughout the stadium.
With that , A tsunami crashing down on Asura’s body.
A huge arrow made of magical energy flew through Asura’s body.
Asura
‘s sword was raised at a right angle. He
didn’t use any special skills.
He just lowered the raised sword vertically. That was all.
But…
wow!
Lee Ye’s arrow, which was attacking Asura’s body, split in half.
“…Huh.”
This person was frozen in the same position in which he fired the bow. It
was a shot that he thought was his turning point.
Sunset was the most powerful killing skill among the skills he could use.
Even if he couldn’t pierce Asura’s neck with this, at least I thought it would provide some level of shock.
‘Was the sense of discomfort I was feeling from a while ago true?’
Sigh…
Lee Ye lowered the bow he was holding in his hand.
Then Asura tilted his head in confusion and asked,
“Have you given up?”
“Stop teasing me.”
It was a long fight lasting about 30 minutes.
On the outside, it looked tense and it seemed like Iye, a somewhat low-ranked player, was putting in an effort, but in reality, that was not the case. “I was aware that they were
watching. I just guessed the extent of it. ”
There was not a single drop of sweat on Asura’s body.
Even though he would have had to move a lot and use a lot of concentration to shoot down all those arrows. It was
n’t just a matter of having excellent physical strength.
In the first place, he didn’t use much force against himself . “I saw it clearly just now.
”
A shot of conversion fired by oneself.
The sword of Asura that was wielded when cutting down the sunset.
“Why are you wasting time?”
There were no wounds on Lee Ye’s body.
It was not because he had dodged well.
If the previous blow had been used for attack rather than defense, Lee Ye had no confidence in blocking or dodging it.
The difference in skill was so obvious. Nevertheless,
Asura had not been able to dodge it until now. Instead of attacking Lee Ye, he was taking his time.
“Isn’t it the same for each other?”
“Same thing….”
“Just trying to waste time.”
“…?”
Lee Ye made a puzzled expression.
Asura, whose goal seemed to be winning, wasted time. I didn’t understand.
Seeing Lee Ye with such a questioning expression, Asura slumped down in his seat.
“What don’t you know?”
chin-.
Lee Ye was taken aback by the sudden action.
It didn’t even occur to me that I should shoot an arrow while I was in a defenseless position.
Right now, it was just difficult to understand Asura’s intentions.
“But thanks to you, I played well. “It wouldn’t have been fun if an mediocre guy had come up.”
“What on earth are you doing?”
“If you don’t know, wait. “If I had known the difference in skill, I would have abstained.”
In the first place, he didn’t even care about this.
Asura had the confidence to block Iye’s arrows at any time.
“What are you doing now!”
“Fight, Ashura!”
“I bet all my money on you!”
“What are you doing, Cheon-gye? Don’t warn that guy right away!”
Cheers poured in from the stands.
They came here to watch the game. They
paid hundreds to thousands of points to enter the stadium, and some even came down a few floors after hearing the news of the Great War.
However, in the finals that started, Asura actually sat down without fighting.
“It’s noisy.”
Asura frowned.
Opening his eyes, he clenched his fist and hit the floor of the stadium
.
Kuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu
me
the stadium
the stadium floor.
Through this, Asura’s presence covered the entire stadium.
The sound of the spectators booing stopped.
Tens of thousands of spectators were intimidated by one person, Asura.
‘… Wasn’t it an appropriate level of attention?’
All at once, all the spectators in this large stadium were silenced.
There was nothing Iye couldn’t do if he wanted to, but it wasn’t something he could do as naturally as breathing.
Iye felt like he was suffocating from the pressure radiating from Asura.
His will to fight was broken and he fell to the floor. He fell.
Feeling the strength in his hand holding the bow loosen, Lee Ye widened his eyes and glared at Asura.
“It’s better now.”
“What are you doing?”
“I think he’s the only one here who noticed.”
“That guy?”
Iye’s gaze followed Asura to the side.
Participants standing outside the circle.
Among them, Iye’s eyes widened as he followed where Asura’s gaze was heading.
‘Kim Yu-hoon?’
The guy who said he would give me information about the elixir.
He was a guy whose name could not be found in rankings or even in rumors.
“I couldn’t find it in the rankings. “Do you have good eyes or good sense?”
“What on earth are you saying….”
“You reacted quite quickly.”
That’s it…
Another sign of popularity felt within the circle.
Lee Ye’s gaze turned towards the footsteps approaching as if nothing had happened despite Asura’s energy.
“I’m in trouble. I’m in trouble…”
‘Old man?’
He was an old man who looked quite old.
The white-haired old man, who was shaking his head with an embarrassed expression, had already entered the circle where the game was in progress.
No intervention by other participants was allowed.
That was an action that went against the rules of the Celestial War.
“What if I don’t do anything like this? “This is my friend.”
An old man reproaching Asura.
At his appearance, Asura stood up from where he was sitting and slowly pulled out the sword he had been holding.
Sereung-.
Two swords are pulled out, making a clear cry, unlike when fighting Lee Ye.
Asura responded to the old man’s words by exposing his sharp teeth.
“I plan to move from now on.”
Asura and the old man faced off.
Lee Ye, who was caught between the two, looked closely at the old man who had entered the stadium.
‘Who the hell is it?’
He was a mysterious old man.
An expression that is perfectly peaceful, as if a hermit had descended from the sky.
A gentle impression and a flow of warm magic power that makes your body feel warmer as you get closer.
It was a face I had seen somewhere before.
Lee Ye, who pulled that face out from beyond her vague memories, looked surprised.
“Taesang…Nogun?”
