My Reflector Is Invincible - Chapter 95
My Reflector Is Invincible 95
95. Why Don’t You Come?
A voice came to Joo-eun, who was standing in front of the tree.
[You can strengthen and delete skills from the Skill Tree]
It was exactly as it said.
In this place, she could strengthen her skills.
‘This is something that was only possible in the Temple of the Sun.’
That’s why it was originally a place that players visited the most.
A character’s strength usually depends a lot on their skills.
Of course, the other eight temples also had different Akashic Systems prepared.
The sun is for strengthening skills.
The great sea is for strengthening achievements.
The silver moon is for creating buffs.
The earth is for crafting equipment.
It was like this.
Of course, Joo-eun’s most fundamental and core skill was ＜Reflection＞.
‘I decided to visit the Temple of the Sun first in order to strengthen ＜Reflection＞.’
Anyway, the important thing was this.
[Would you like to strengthen ＜Reflection＞? ]
＜Reflection＞, the most shining skill among the skills.
From Noble mtl dot com
The skill upgrade window popped up before Joo-eun’s eyes.
Of course, it’s not something you can do unconditionally.
Strengthening points were required.
How do you get that?
You can obtain it by offering the skills you have.
Of course, the skills don’t disappear.
[Reinforcement points are paid according to the grade offered]
[Normal 1/Advanced 2/Rare 3/Hero 4/Continental 5/Legend 8/Unique 10]
For this reason, Joo-Yeon acquired [Conqueror].
Because it was the easiest to acquire skills among all the professions.
Of course, it was possible to acquire skills with other professions as well.
By paying money to other occupational groups, or by inheriting them. Or by completing quests.
There were various other ways to acquire skills.
That was also the reason why the profession of ＜Warrior＞ was often played.
[Warriors can purchase skills from other professions through Warrior Points]
Warrior Points are accumulated just by helping others.
It was much easier to acquire advanced skills than with money or inheritance.
But that’s as far as it goes.
‘Every time, you have to do a forced quest, and if you see injustice, you automatically run to it.’
[Sense of Justice]
There was a trait that gave a very small chance of self-destructing against the Demon King.
Joo-Yeon also suffered a lot because of this characteristic of a warrior.
‘On the other hand, ＜Conqueror＞ is so clean.’
The advantage of ＜Conqueror＞.
It is that you don’t have to work hard to clear quests.
Because there are more skills that you can acquire by subduing them at once.
There was also the advantage that you could acquire ultra-rare skills that are hard to find otherwise.
Just look at what I got from the Paladins a little while ago.
＜Divine Blessing＞ is a secret technique of the Paladins that grants divine attributes for a moment.
＜Holy Shield＞ is an ultra-rare skill that creates a shield made of divine power in front.
Only the captain-level of the Paladins could have it.
‘Well, only Paladins can use something like this, so it’s better to sell it.’
Soon, Joo-Yeon planned to offer the skill and strengthen the reflection.
‘I can’t offer just any skill.’
For professional reasons, Joo-Yeon offered skills that he couldn’t use, inferior compatible skills, and skills that were too restrictive and caused damage.
[You have acquired 3 skill points]
[You have acquired 2 skill points]
…….
[You have acquired 3 skill points]
A few more were deleted in addition to that.
＜Take a Break＞
＜Digging＞
＜Screaming＞
＜Steal＞
＜Inspect＞
＜Mugging＞
These were useless skills I had learned while training with the King of Knights.
I had been waiting to get rid of them anyway, so the timing was perfect.
‘Stealth, Mugging, Inspect, these are all rogue techniques.’
I learned these skills by watching the Rogue teach Haken from the side.
I also got rid of a few others, and managed to accumulate 35 points.
That was a lot of points for the early stages.
‘Now, let’s try strengthening.’
[Would you like to strengthen ＜Reflect＞? ]
[Required points: 10]
If 1 point is required for normal skills, the Unique-grade ＜Reflect＞ requires 10.
However, Joo-Heon’s hand did not hesitate.
Joo-Heon’s hand tapped on the glowing branch.
Then, a bright light began to spread from ＜Reflect＞.
Paat!
[＜Reflect＞ has become LV2]
[Reflect’s range has increased]
[Reflect’s power has increased]
In an instant, the power of Reflect had become stronger.
But there were still many points left.
[10 points required to level up]
Flash!
[＜Reflect＞ has become LV3]
[Reflect’s range and power have been amplified]
The wording changed slightly.
From ‘increased’ range and power to ‘amplified’.
It seemed like a small difference, but it was actually quite significant.
‘I shouldn’t be stingy with skill points.’
＜Reflect＞ had become stronger than I thought.
The range alone felt like it had become at least five times stronger than before.
But I still had points left.
[Remaining points: 15]
Of course, I didn’t just choose this time.
Unlike before, the appearance of the skill tree had changed slightly.
A new fork appeared on the tree.
[Reinforcement Trait Type]
[1. ＜Double Reflect＞]
-You can reflect on two enemies at the same time.
(No damage reduction)
[2. ＜Reflection Guard＞]
-You can cast Reflect on an ally.
(You cannot use ＜Reflect＞ on yourself while Reflect Guard is active.)
Joo-in was secretly nervous.
In fact, this was where it all mattered.
‘Depending on my initial choices, my ability’s potential for growth will change completely.’
He had already done a lot of tests on ＜Reflect＞.
He knew well enough how much power it had.
And he had to consider who his future opponents would be.
‘Especially the Sun Temple’s Cardinal and Saintess are going to be a problem.’
Joo-in had played the game countless times.
As a result, he knew very well how things would play out once a fake hero like him appeared at the Sun Temple.
‘They’ll try to kill me by any means necessary.’
He might end up having to fight against Duke Edmar’s Sun Temple.
That was why he had intentionally refrained from summoning the Sword King or the Saintess.
The two honest individuals might hesitate to fight against the Temple.
For now, he had to assume that he would be dealing with them alone.
‘But the Sun Temple is like their home base. There are bound to be traps.’
That was why these choices were so important.
He would need to block their attacks and counterattack.
‘So my choice is…!’
Joo-in’s finger pressed down on one of the branching paths.
* * *
Galatheron, Cardinal of the Sun Temple.
He had a very stern face.
And with good reason.
“Car… Cardinal! It’s him! The hero who killed your Grace’s son has come to the Temple.”
The enemy he had been waiting for had come to the Temple.
Killing intent flared in Galatheron’s eyes.
“The bastard who killed my son… has come to the Temple? And he came looking for me?”
The Cardinal gritted his teeth.
And then he tried to charge at Joo-in to exact his revenge.
But a woman stopped him.
“Please, restrain yourself, Cardinal.”
“My son is dead! He may have been useless, but you want me to restrain myself after my son was killed??”
“Yes.”
The Cardinal’s eyes narrowed coldly.
But he couldn’t defy the woman.
And with good reason, for her identity was the problem.
Saintess Labelda.
The woman who succeeded Esmeralda as the saintess.
However, the reason the saintess dissuaded the cardinal was not out of compassion as a saintess.
“He is already dead. Shouldn’t the important thing be the intention of the fake claiming to be the hero?”
“Perhaps he simply came to verify the hero’s authenticity?”
“Instead of going straight to the Hero King, he deliberately came here first? Isn’t he trying to make the Temple of the Sun a liar that produces fake heroes?”
“Hmm?”
In fact, both of them knew that Leon was a fake.
After all, they were the ones who made him a hero and gave him the fake seal.
The problem was that it would be troublesome if this fact was revealed.
“We have two choices. One is to admit our mistake and make a sincere compensation to the hero.”
“And the other?”
“Kill the one claiming to be a hero and bury our sins.”
“…….”
The cardinal was not surprised.
He simply looked around as if asking if it was okay.
“The Hero King or others will not sit still, so what do you plan to do about that?”
“What does that matter? If we just take the holy sword, no one will believe that he is a real hero.”
That’s right.
The main character no longer had the Hero’s Seal.
Another person had the seal, but that didn’t matter.
“We’ve already joined hands with the Demon’s Tower anyway. If we use the name of the [Great Demon], we can create a new hero whenever we want.”
“That’s not a bad idea. We’ll get our hands on the holy sword once we kill him anyway.”
In an instant, greed appeared in the cardinal’s eyes.
In the first place, the reason they created a fake hero was to make the Temple of the Sun the greatest.
At some point, the hero didn’t even choose the Temple of the Sun, and no saintess appeared.
That was why he used the power of the Eight Temples’ Sub-leaders to make Labella a saintess.
“Then I shall order the paladins to kill him.”
“Be careful. I heard that he has a peculiar power. Priest Juan confirmed his ability.”
“What kind of power is it anyway…….”
Saintess Labella whispered in the cardinal’s ear.
“They say that attacks don’t work on him. As if he’s repelling the attacks.”
“How can we defeat someone like that?”
“Simple.”
Saintess Labella smiled brightly.
“Don’t aim for him, aim for the people around him.”
“The people…… around him?”
“I heard that the Great Mage and a few others came with him. Take them hostage and make demands.”
“Is that possible?”
“It is possible.”
The saintess said resolutely.
“A true hero would definitely sacrifice their own life to save their comrades. That’s just the kind of people they are. Isn’t it obvious when you look at the previous heroes?”
“Indeed.”
The two of them smiled wickedly.
That was why they had meticulously prepared a trap for Joo-Heon.
However, a little while later.
The Cardinal and the Saintess couldn’t help but be bewildered.
“Why the hell aren’t those bastards coming?”
“W-well, I don’t know?”
No matter how long they waited, they didn’t come.
