Regressor of the Fallen Family - Chapter 70
Chapter 70 The direction of the force’s flow was not the armor section that had been searched so far, but a place where other categories were collected.
When Logan followed the force and took a closer look, what led the force was a pair of gray metal boots made of an unknown material with no distinctive features.
“This…?”
Boots that don’t have any magical power to the point where you’re not even sure if they’re artifacts.
However, the moment he picked up the boots, a slight vibration came from his fingertips and Logan felt a strange sensation.
‘…Feeling like something is blocked?’
He, who possessed special senses, could barely feel this vibration as he continued to absorb the weakly distributed force.
Maybe….
‘It’s awesome.’
Logan immediately imbued the vague anticipation with force. And Boots began to absorb his force as if he had been waiting.
Ugh.
At first, my expectations grew as the force drew me in like a waterfall. However, as the momentum continued to grow stronger without any intention of stopping, I couldn’t help but harden my complexion.
‘this!?’
I hurriedly tried to put the brakes on the force that was flowing out like an ebbing tide, but the flow created by my boots was too strong. If I tried to force it, I felt like I would get internal injuries.
I thought it was a big hit, but I thought it might be more than just a hit and a trap.
“profit!”
Logan applied the force with maximum force with the idea of seeing who would win.
With the intention of smashing the boots themselves.
And around the time when Logan’s complexion turned blue and then white.
Fazizik.
Along with the sound of something breaking in my head, the force that the boots had absorbed began to spit out again.
It felt like I had inhaled the water of life just before exhaustion.
Logan felt his strength return and looked at the boots in his hand with dumbfounded eyes.
“What is this…?”
It felt like I was being played, but the irritation that had been rising due to the strong power secretly felt inside the boots disappeared like melting snow.
There was no need to hesitate.
Logan immediately tried the boots on.
‘Is it a little big?’
At the same time thinking like that.
Ugh.
The shoe absorbed Logan’s force and instantly shrunk to fit his foot.
“Huh…”
Even though it was clearly made of heavy metal on the outside, I didn’t feel any weight.
And at that moment, Logan intuitively knew the capabilities of these boots.
30% increase in body agility and reaction speed. Capable of triple mid-air jump. Climbing is possible. Size adjustable. Self-restoration.
It seemed as if his own force, which had gathered in his boots and returned, was whispering that ability into his mind.
Perhaps this is also magic that he does not know about.
then.
‘An artifact of at least class 4 or higher.’
A treasure superior to any other artifact left here.
“Huh… such a big deal…”
Just as I was about to cheer.
“10 minutes ago.”
The knight’s warning is heard outside the passage.
Logan had no choice but to stifle his bursting laughter and hurriedly leave the warehouse.
“Are those shoes…?”
“That’s right.”
“Hmm. Measurement level 1 class… below? Huh? Are you really okay with this?”
The knight looked at him with the look of an idiot who has never existed in the world.
“Please tell the Count that I am grateful for his kindness.”
Logan was smiling sincerely.
* * *
“It’s just hard metal boots… He’s the only one who can keep the line.”
Roger Bipros smiled faintly after receiving the article’s report.
Then the subordinate who was listening cautiously asked.
“So should we cancel our plans?”
“No. But you still have to pay for toying with me.”
The faint smile soon became cold and turned to someone who was not present.
No matter how many gestures of reconciliation he sent, mercy was not in Roger Bipros’ vocabulary.
‘Smart guy…’
On his birthday, a swordsman who had never been around gave a congratulatory speech.
And as it happened, his disciple was there.
No matter how much I thought about it, I felt like I was just playing into that guy’s trick.
“Well, he said he’s leaving right away. Then we’ll be right away too…”
“What? Hehe, as expected, he was planning to make fun of me. He…”
There were 3 days left in the party. The person who gave him a shit from day one just took the artifact and left?
Before I was worried about the rumors that would come out of other people’s mouths, I was so humiliated that I couldn’t bear it myself.
“Tell him clearly. You can’t kill him, but you can make him an asshole who won’t be noticed. And I’ll make sure to retrieve his sword and artifacts.”
“…All right.”
* * *
“Who will curse at me?”
Logan muttered as he suddenly felt a tickling sensation in one of his ears.
Half a day had passed since I had been riding like crazy since leaving Bipros.
Tomorrow we will be able to enter the boundaries of the old Sylvan territory, now McLane’s land.
‘Even if there is a pursuer, he won’t follow me to this extent.’
I would never have guessed that the guest who left after receiving a formal farewell would have galloped away on horseback.
Therefore, Logan was able to lie down on a bed of leaves under a bonfire and leisurely examine the boots he had just acquired.
‘What on earth is this?’
How could something like this have been buried like that?
Why didn’t Roger Bipros find out the secret of this object?
A series of unanswered questions followed me, but no matter how hard I stared, there was no way Boots would open his mouth to answer.
“Geocha…”
Size conversion and physical ability amplification. From jumping in the air to climbing.
Even though it was simply an artifact with four 1st circle magic, it was treated as a class 3 artifact.
Considering the additional benefits the boots had, it was clear that they were treasures worth one or two levels more.
“Hehe. Anyway, it’s awesome.”
It felt like an unexpected blessing had come to me.
The luck I got so freely felt burdensome and strange.
‘No, no. ‘Good is good.’
With the intention of learning how to use it, Logan gave up reasoning that would not yield an answer anyway and put his boots back on.
Wow!
The body leaped in an instant, touched the air, and changed direction three times. My much lighter body crossed the forest like a gale.
“Wahahahahah!”
The effectiveness of the boots, which amplify speed at a rate of 30% rather than adding a certain amount of power, made me feel like I had reached a new level in an instant.
Logan, filled with excitement, pulled out Lux and swung the sword into the air.
Sigh!
That’s how gymnastics on a moonlit night began.
The endless golden sword dance barely stopped after several more hours had passed, even after Logan thought he had somewhat adapted to the effectiveness of the shoes.
“Good. Very good!”
I can’t believe I get treasures like this right after I get Lux.
It seemed like he was lucky.
‘Your name is now Wind God’s Boots.’
Logan sat down and meditated with that happy feeling in his heart.
The relief of getting results that were as desired or even better made it easier to concentrate.
The calm mind quickly recovered the fatigued body through adaptation training, and the consciousness continued to expand and contract, sinking inward.
Meditation practice instead of sleep.
Now this was nothing short of a truly relaxing break.
But that peaceful time did not last long.
‘Living?!’
Logan, feeling eerie, instinctively got up and looked toward the west.
‘Could it be that the pursuer ended up here?’
Logan drew his sword as quietly as possible.
Fortunately, Lux’s silver sword did not show off its shine under the dark night sky.
Because my body had not yet fully recovered, my senses seemed to have become a little dull, but fortunately the enemy had no intention of hiding.
“Your senses are sensitive.”
Logan frowned at the voice that seemed to have been forcibly altered.
Soon, four masked people appeared through the western bushes.
A pitch-black leather armor similar to that used by stealthy mercenaries, and a mask so tight that not even hair can be seen.
“Isn’t it frustrating to go around like that? It must have been quite difficult to come all the way from Bipros.”
When Logan saw them, he suddenly looked up and asked, but they couldn’t communicate.
“Just don’t kill me.”
As soon as the masked person standing behind opened his mouth, one of the masked people in front quickly rushed towards Logan.
“It’s so annoying…”
A voice with a subtle hint of anger.
The masked man, who seemed to be the leader, modulated his voice to hide it, but his subordinate didn’t seem to have any intention of doing so.
It was a voice I was sure I had heard somewhere, but I had no time to think about who it was.
The sword that suddenly appeared in front of my eyes was an ordinary longsword commonly found in any bustling metropolis.
However, the fierce force contained within was anything but ordinary.
‘Senior knight! After all, he was a tracker.’
Logan frowned and swung his sword at the opponent’s momentum, which was clearly felt the moment he got closer.
bang!
“100 million?!”
With a loud noise, the opponent’s sword flew out and fell to the ground.
Logan immediately followed the masked man who was staggering back and swung his sword without hesitation.
‘I can’t believe you followed me all the way here. Kill when you have the chance.’
If the first person to step forward is a senior knight, then the rest are at least stronger than this person.
I had to kill at least one guy while I was letting down my guard.
but.
Sgak!
“Ugh!”
Unfortunately, the turning blow did not achieve its goal.
As soon as the sword flew, the knight lost his balance and rolled backwards.
When Logan’s impression is distorted after he was not properly groomed.
“…catch them all together!”
Recognizing the unusual situation, the enemy captain shouted and the other two masked men, excluding him, rushed towards him at once.
At that moment, a gust of wind rose around Logan’s body.
visor! visor!
Quang!
An explosion of sound echoing in the quiet night sky.
Logan deflected the attacks of two senior knights in succession and easily took the attack of the first masked man who came after him.
A joint attack by three high-ranking knights who, as usual, would have been able to endure with great difficulty.
The ability to compete on equal footing with such people was not only thanks to the enemies’ restraint in shooting, but also thanks to the markedly different body movements.
‘It’s definitely amazing.’
Even in an emergency situation, Logan couldn’t help but admire the Wind God’s boots again.
30% more sensitive senses and 30% more agile movements.
That alone increased combat power by more than 1.5 times.
Logan’s physical ability, which already boasts incomparable efficiency in its class, has risen to a level that transcends its grade.
There was no way the knights dealing with it could not feel it.
“Please allow sprinkles!”
“It’s too much for us alone!”
There was no leisure in the voices of the masked men echoing through the quiet midnight forest.
The captain, who had tried to watch the situation while leaving it to his subordinates, saw his subordinates preoccupied with defense and gritted his teeth as he moved.
“Embarrassingly…”
The masked person who seemed to be moving slowly disappeared in an instant, and four people suddenly emerged from the back of the chaotic battlefield.
Then, swinging a long sword that looked ordinary but had a pure white silver force of nearly 2 meters in it, it cut Logan’s rear side horizontally.
Kwaaaaaaaa!
“Pfft!”
Logan’s body instinctively parried the sword strike coming from behind and was pushed back.
Without missing the opportunity, the three knights targeted Logan.
however.
Sigh!
Sgak!
“What is this!”
“This guy?”
“Hmph!”
As Logan moved through the air and changed direction one after another, the attacks from the senior knights only pierced the air one after another.
“joy!”
Logan shook off his wrists to relieve the shock, then sneered at the enemy leader who attacked behind him.
“I guess Moonlight Knight was a name obtained through a surprise attack, Sir Plantz.”
‘I can’t believe the damn top engineer came to do this dirty work himself.’
At those angry words, the silver Force Blade that was shining softly in the moonlight trembled slightly.
