Solo Max-Level Newbie - Chapter 26
Episode 26 Sword Master Chun Yoo-seong (2)
Awesome! thump! thump!
Heavy pressure felt throughout the body.
Overloaded vessels scream.
Jinhyuk frowned.
indeed.
‘Is this the aftermath of using the SS rank’s unique ability in the battle line?’
Until now, except for the fire element, I had never used combat-type abilities, so I didn’t realize it.
Now that I see it, I know for sure.
How important is the absolute amount of horsepower.
Later, if you want to use Teresa’s unique ability…
No matter how much magic you have, it will not be enough.
One more reason to completely absorb frozen tears.
‘I have to finish it as soon as possible.’
My body can’t stand it if I drag it.
Jinhyeok gathered all his remaining magic power.
Roaring!
A black aura shone at the tip of the sword.
Sword steel (劍罡) used by the sword demon.
Although it is not even one-tenth of its original power.
That’s enough.
not enough
***
Wow!
Cheon Yoo-seong’s molars dug deep into his lips.
Blood came out, but I felt no pain.
‘Absolutely… I can’t accept it.’
I tried hard enough to die.
Even in game.
Even outside the game.
However, no matter how hard he trained and tried, he couldn’t defeat the guy in front of him.
The result is always a black and white screen.
Only the red letters that read [You Die] told us how our efforts had been.
A year and two years like that….
So much time has passed that I can’t even count how many times I read the message of death.
The years of giving up and forgetting everything.
Right then.
The [Tower of Trials] has arrived in reality.
That’s it!
If only I could start all over again.
There’s no reason to ever give up on him.
The current gap is just because I started the game first and monopolized good opportunities.
but.
Even though I finished the preparations that I’m sure is the best…
Why the hell!
You have brought me despair again!
Chun Yuseong roared wildly.
‘Death Soul Sword Dance’.
A sword divided into dozens of lines.
‘Type 1’.
The tangible blue magic began to overflow.
‘Chuhonsura Sword’.
never… never!
“I can not admit it!”
Chun Yuseong shouted and swung his sword.
like the claws of a beast.
Dozens of sword spirits engulfed Jinhyeok.
Kwak Kwah Kwah Kwah!
The ground was cut like a piece of paper.
overwhelming power.
The sword wind alone forced absurd physical force.
In the place where the storm swept away, only thick dust rose.
“haha. ha.”
Chun Yoo-seong let out a heavy breath.
My heart was pounding wildly.
He used the best season possible.
If this was it, it would definitely work.
however.
“What skill is so dusty?”
in the thick dust.
that buck
Jinhyeok appeared without a single wound.
not blocked
It wasn’t even accepted.
just avoided
“You read all of The Sword…?”
More than dozens?
Such nonsense!
Even the one who wielded the sword did not know all the sword paths.
“It’s not that the sword for souls is bad, but I’ve fought someone who uses something faster and stronger than this.”
Not on the first floor where you are now, but far above.
I’ve faced one of the absolutes who rule the tower.
“Funny. There is no ascending martial art above the soul sword except for the one used by the Heavenly Demon.”
“how did you know? Did you fight him?”
“to the end!”
Chun Youseong drew his sword horizontally.
at the same time.
From above…
…below.
Jinhyeok lowered his dagger.
Quaang!
Swords with different trajectories collided at one point.
Kagagagak!
A clash between Qi and Kang.
Blue sparks scattered in all directions.
But the equilibrium did not last long.
The fully manifested black moon gnawed away Cheonyuseong’s strong energy in an instant.
“Grow!”
A heavy moan escaped from Yuseong’s mouth.
Although he poured his mana to the point of going wild. Even that was not enough.
It’s not a matter of horsepower. It is not a matter of skill or unique ability.
There is just a difference in how much they enjoy and like this world between the two.
at last.
cooong!
Chun Yoo-seong got down on one knee.
“Gagging!”
Kwaaang!
I missed the iron sword I was holding in the next blow.
The sword spun in the air and stuck to the ground.
Finally, the victory was over.
“Looks like I won this time too. I don’t know exactly how many.”
I forgot the count a long time ago.
No matter how small it is, it seems to be over double digits.
“It’s 13…8.”
It is 138.
Has it already happened?
“I think it will be 139 next time. Of course, if you mistakenly believe that there is a chance of winning again.”
At Jinhyeok’s words, Chun Yuseong raised his eyes.
“Next?
“Okay next time. ah! If possible, I want you to come stronger than you are now.”
It takes 90 days to use the copy ability on the same target.
and.
If Jin-hyeok knows Cheon Yoo-seong, he will come back with more useful skills than now when they meet next time.
‘In fact, it’s like making a catering buffet come to me.’
Why do you search here and there and make hard copies?
There’s a guy in front of me who’s impatient to become strong?
It’s my taste to grow this kind of guy slowly and eat it.
‘I’ll get [that skill] later on the 15th floor.’
As soon as he thought of copying the skill that only training light can obtain, Jinhyeok’s mouth naturally went up.
of course.
“Kill it. I don’t need pity.”
Chun Yoo-seong has no choice but to accept this as cheap sympathy.
this is true
Even if I offered to save him, he would probably be the only one in the world who would hate him.
can’t do it
Jinhyeok let out a small sigh and retrieved the dagger.
“As you know, the Tower of Trials is a formidable place. Isn’t this where even rankers die the moment they get caught off guard?”
Talking about the difficulty level of the tower only hurts.
In particular, now that the variable ‘person’ has been added, the difficulty must have gone up much more than in the past.
“That’s why we need as many strong players as possible. Especially for a particularly strong player like you.”
“A particularly strong player?”
Chun Yoo-seong’s eyes trembled faintly.
It’s a strange look.
Is it like the feeling that the count’s idiot son, who had been ignored all his life, was finally recognized by his father?
this has passed
…Now.
Jinhyeok stretched out his hand toward Chun Yooseong.
And then, implicitly, another skill was activated.
[Lv2 ‘Sympathy’ is activated.]
[The target’s hostility towards you is relieved.]
[The affinity level has increased slightly.]
Cheon Yoo-seong stood up holding Jin-hyeok’s hand and brushed off the dust on his body.
“…that’s not wrong. But keep in mind. That next time the results will be completely different.”
all right you’ll be tough
“Yes, I will be looking forward to it.”
Jinhyeok smiled.
however.
Chun Yuseong, who was about to release the barrier, hesitated.
“Come to think of it, I still don’t know your name.”
“We don’t see each other very often, so there’s no need to say aloud, right?”
hey. you. there. hey and so on.
Personal pronouns are meant to be used in this case, right?
“okay. i get it. In that case, let’s call it what we used to call it.”
huh?
Do you feel something strong?
No way…
“Wait! Don’t call it that.”
Jinhyeok urgently shouted.
I’ll tell you the name. please.
Stop it, you bastard!
“Colonel Teemo.”
ah. Don’t call me…
Jinhyeok pressed his temples with his fingers.
At the same time, how big a ripple effect a nickname built for fun can bring.
realized once again
It’s also very painful.
***
Jinhyeok is in the middle of acquiring an item after the battle with Chun Yuseong.
Another incident was happening in the ruins.
A raid group resting after a round of combat.
“Cheonhwa hyung. Didn’t you sort out all the monsters in front of you?”
The magic player who was using detection magic tilted his head.
“uh. An hour ago, Gwangil took the kids and wiped it all out.”
“okay? Hmm…”
“Why?”
“No, that’s because the magic response is being captured by the detection magic. It looks like one or two, but…”
“That can’t be. Since they are specters, I know they checked 3 times to make sure they were dealt with. Look where you are.”
Song Chun-hwa approached the man.
Really.
A red dot was displayed on a translucent screen displayed as a hologram.
“ha. Gwangil is this child. It seems like you did a little bit of work because you were bothered.”
Song Chun-hwa scratched her head.
Sometimes this happens.
There was a case of missing one or two ghost monsters that were easy to miss, such as the Specter.
But just then
“uh? Now hold on. He started moving.”
“What do you mean by moving? Aren’t these guys the ones who stay in place unless they’re attracted to aggro?”
“Really! Plus it’s fast. They’re coming right this way!”
That moment.
coo-woong. Koo-woong!
Footsteps began to be heard nearby.
The sound of footsteps that could not exist for the ghosts.
An earthquake occurred in Song Chun-hwa’s pupils.
What if… what if…
it’s not that you missed the specter, but a new existence that didn’t exist before?
And what if no one notices until you break through the outer boundary and get close?
creepy
Goosebumps ran down my spine.
“Right now… Wake up all those who are resting!”
“All of me?”
“Yes everything!”
Song Chun-hwa shouted.
***
After a while, what appeared in front of the raid was a huge 3m tall golem.
A massive body made of rock.
But what worried me more than the golem was the white-haired man perched on his shoulder.
“Hmm. hello? Humans.”
A sweet voice that lingers along the eardrum.
The man smiled at Song Chun-hwa.
“Are you talking?”
“Damn it. All in all, an intelligent monster.”
“That golem is not just a golem, it’s an iron golem. It doesn’t even get scratched with blades.”
Each player spat out a word.
An intelligent monster with a reputation for being difficult to deal with.
Among them, human-like entities were among the most hated by players.
“Are you the boss monster of this ruin?”
Song Chun-hwa asked while covering herself with a huge shield.
“Haha my name is Bellus. I am just one of the blood relatives who serve the owner of this ruin.”
“consanguinity? If it’s a blood relative…”
Song Chun-hwa’s pupils dilated greatly as she chewed on the words.
“Please stand.”
Among the monsters with a beautiful human appearance, there is only one that uses that expression.
“Vampires…”
And if that’s true.
The owner of this ruin that that man is enshrining is…
Gulp!
Dry spittle passed down Song Chun-hwa’s neck.
Jinjo (真祖).
One of the strongest beings in the Tower of Trials.
This is his territory.
‘There’s no chance of winning.’
I never imagined that there would be such a powerful monster on the first floor.
No matter how much Theresa is and even if there is a secret weapon prepared, only Jinjo is an exception.
‘Because at least the level is over 500.’
At this point, I couldn’t hunt him with any unique abilities or holy relics.
Song Chun-hwa struggled to open her mouth.
“What do you want from us? You wouldn’t have come here for no reason.”
“Hoo. You are a very smart person. you’re right. The reason I have come all the way here is to make a suggestion.”
Bellus jumped off the golem’s shoulder.
Took.
It is a light landing that seems to defy gravity.
“What would you suggest?”
“I give you a choice. You can choose one of the two. first one first. Will all of you here quietly follow me? Or…”
Red magic power began to condense in Belus’s palm.
“As an example, would you like to be led away like cattle after you are half dead?”
