bang!

bang!

The feeling of gravity in my hand and the top sword from collide with each other.

“Crrrralak!”

He must have had a fairly high level of [swordsmanship], and he displayed some worthy skills.

The shock wave of a heavy sword that focuses everything on its typical strength travels up to the wrist.

Kwakwa-!

bang-!

‘Well, it’s not easy.’

The speed and technique are at the level I did.

Then what is the problem?

That’s the toughness this guy has.

And it was power.

The weapons collide again.

Flames exploding.

The power struggle that lasted about two seconds further confirmed this fact.

is a typical bruiser type monster.

From what I remember, just having it is a [super strength] skill that sustains one’s strength.

To be precise, I know that he possesses a higher level rare ability called [Uncanny Superpower].

‘I would have higher abilities… ‘

I took a step back, thinking that the presence or absence of skills is important.

There is no need to go with his flow.

When the distance suddenly widens, an excited rushes towards you.

Boom, boom, boom!

A great sword that is wielded recklessly.

“Krrr!?”

However, no matter how hard he swung, it didn’t hit him, and a look of confusion appeared in his eyes.

This was a possible result because the correction ability based on [Powerful Agility] and [Sprint] gave me a speed one beat faster than that guy.

And you need to know that.

“I’m not alone.”

“Kruk?!”

pop-!

“[Shield Slam]!”

“Kwaaak!”

Appropriate help from Mnyangi, who was looking for an opportunity.

At the same time, [Sla Sla]’s cooldown refills.

When magical energy was input, [Slime’s Arsenal] was activated.

Before I knew it, I was holding the [Saint’s Sword] in my hand instead of the [Gravity Sword].

The lighter weight made me feel like a flash of light.

The , taken aback by the sudden increase in speed, hurriedly raises his great sword.

But it was late.

The [Saint’s Sword] immediately dug into the back of the guy’s neck.

“Crrr!”

Wow, look at this guy?

It tightens its neck and uses its muscles and scales to stop its entry.

“What did you say…”

Pajik-!

“Kruk!?”

The blue energy on the blade quickly turns red.

The power of [Fight Heavenly Sword Technique] has reached level 3.

Fear appears in the man’s eyes at the release of his formidable magical power.

Shukwakwak!

Shukkeok-!

A dance of swords swinging as if there was nothing harsh about them.

Finally, the battle ended by splitting the guy’s head in half.

A deep smile is drawn on my face at the additional information window.

[‘Eyes of the Reverse Sky’ engraves deeper insight.]

[The selection is activated. Target: ]

[Choices are given.]

* * *

“Mwaaa.”

“Well, I’ll help you.”

“Meah! Thank you, senior.”

“Mauu…! Ha, junior Hana? Ha, one more time…”

“Mua? Senior?”

“Mauu!”

After the battle ended.

Mnyangi butchered the useful parts from the bodies of the fallen monsters.

Choi Mari, who was standing next to her, kneels down and helps her by casting [Purification].

There aren’t that many monsters, so it won’t take long.

Still, it was enough time to choose an option.

I took advantage of this opportunity to reap the sweet reward of victory.

‘first… ‘

I decided to look at , which I first caught.

[‘The eyes of the sky’ go against the laws of heaven.]

[You are given a choice. Subject: .]

[‘Speed +1’, ‘Underwater breathing’ or ‘Deep underwater breathing’]

‘… hmm.’

The options came out a bit vaguely.

It’s not a bad thing, but should I say ‘Why?’

I chose this without much thought.

[Your breath is free even in the water.]

[Select ‘Deep underwater breathing’. This is a level 5 uncommon skill. It is acquired by dropping to level 2.]

[Spirit increases by 1 as an acquisition reward.]

[Water breathing], which allows you to breathe freely even underwater, was a skill that evolved to the next level.

Speed +1 is attractive, but I didn’t hesitate too much because I decided to collect as high a level skill as possible.

‘And next… ‘

It was a being slaughtered in my hands.

[‘The eyes of the sky’ go against the laws of heaven.]

[You are given a choice. Target: ]

[‘Strength +2’, ‘super strength’ or ‘uncanny strength’]

‘… ah.’

Unlike before, both were worthwhile choices.

‘My strength level now is 35.’

As it was the highest level of ability, it was the most difficult to raise.

And this will continue to be the case as we go forward.

In reality, there are many cases where the skill level does not increase at all even if it increases.

This will be especially true if you break through [40], which is commonly called the stagnation zone in training.

In this situation, increasing strength by a whopping +2 was very appealing.

It’s not just that [super strength] is bad.

‘but.’

In the end, this too was consistent.

[The mighty power of a waterspout! Your muscles become tougher and stronger.]

[Select ‘Uncanny Strength’. This is a level 4 rare ability. It is acquired by dropping to level 2.]

[The current owner’s abilities are too high. Level rewards are given when a certain level is reached.]

[Uncanny Strength] is a trait that amplifies one’s strength just by possessing it.

As the word [uncanny] was added to it, it allowed it to produce even higher strength than [monstrous strength].

It was a skill too precious to miss.

‘Well, you just have to raise your abilities step by step.’

As I smiled with satisfaction, Mnyangi’s words sounded like a knife.

“Muaa? Seha. Have you already collected all the magic stones?”

“Ah, sorry! There’s only one left.”

“Mwaaa! You can’t be lazy!”

After apologizing, I accepted Mnyangi’s criticism and hurriedly dug up the magic stone.

* * *

The attack on proceeded efficiently and quickly.

“[Shield push]-!”

“[Ryu Cham]-!”

pop-!

Shukak-!

Gurgling-! Crumble!

Me and Mnyangi.

As they were colleagues who fought with each other’s backs, their connection was virtually seamless.

And because of this connection, the frogs and lizards collapsed helplessly.

It’s not that they’re weak.

“We are too strong.”

“…Maaaah, Sehaya, that line is so cringy.”

Anyway, there were no major injuries, and as the monsters were defeated, we reached the deepest area.

Just when I was sure that the [Boss Room] was not far away, I sensed something strange.

“…Muaa…? I can’t see the enemy at all?”

It was just as Mnyangi said.

‘Hehe I can’t go!’ It didn’t look like the reptiles that had appeared as if they had suddenly been completely wiped out.

Instead, it is an outer wall with nothing in it.

Stone statues standing in a majestic manner began to appear.

Stone statues standing like .

Although I didn’t mention it to my companions, I watched and observed the statue closely every time I advanced.

Because I knew what these guys were from the beginning.

‘… It will appear soon, right?’

That was when I finished thinking.

They say even tigers come when you tell them to.

Suddenly-! A stone statue began to move.

Surprisingly, no sound was heard.

It was because of the uncommon skill, [Silence], applied to the itself.

“You two are enemies.”

“Mauu!?”

“Mwa!? Uh, where? I can’t sense it, and I can’t hear it… Ah! Mari-senior. Behind, behind me, the stone statue is moving!”

“Ma, ma, ma?!”

“Suddenly!”

A stone statue that squeaks and opens.

Inside, a skeletal walked out holding a shamiter.

It was like an assassin, with all the accessories and bandages that Egyptian mummies would wear.

.

It was an undead monster that secretly came out of a stone statue enchanted with [Silence] and made a surprise attack.

Their biggest characteristic is their rear attack.

It has a skill called [Hyde Critical] that delivers a guaranteed critical hit when attacked from behind.

As soon as he saw me, he rushed at me without any signs of embarrassment.

Shameter’s blade strikes in one fell swoop.

I frowned as I blocked the attack.

As with all , if you are discovered in advance, your strength will be lost.

However, this guy was a bit of an exception.

Even though it was clearly blocked, the shock wave flowed through my wrist.

Push!

“Mwaaa, Sehaya!?”

“are you okay.”

The shock wave cuts the shoulder into small pieces, causing bleeding.

Aside from surprise attacks, that’s the reason why these guys are so difficult.

[Gap of steadfastness].

This is a skill possessed by , and if the defense power is higher than that of the opponent, it is an ability that ignores damage equal to the difference.

Because of this skill, was a difficult B-class monster that was difficult to ignore even if the surprise attack failed.

“Muaa! Seha. I’ll join you!”

“No. Rather, let me deal with it.”

Here, [Gap of Strength] had the characteristic of increasing its power as the number of enemies it faced increased.

In other words, it was best to deal with him one-on-one.

Normally, he would have to suffer quite a bit.

The guy’s weakness was clear.

in short…

‘You’re saying it’s okay if I have higher defense, right?’

Boom, boom, kaaang!

“Rather?!”

The guy made a puzzled gesture when [Gap of Strength] stopped being activated at some point.

‘It has to be that way.’

[Activates ‘Hard Rock’.]

[Increases defense in proportion to the caster’s durability value for a certain period of time.]

Abilities developed through training.

[Rock hardening] is added here.

Before I knew it, my defense had risen to the point where I had the upper hand over for a moment.

The only thing that’s tricky about this guy is [Gap of Strength], which causes unconditional damage no matter how you attack.

Unless the selfish dealing technique couldn’t do it, there were no undead or anything just dangling bones.

“Everything, rattle!”

What’s also important is that the weapon I’m currently holding is the [Saint’s Sword].

[Encounter a group of evil evil.]

[All power against evil and evil is increased by 50%.]

I raised [Saint’s Sword] and struck the guy’s Shameter high.

Pull your left hand back.

I used [Multiple Hits] to land several blows on the guy’s body.

Due to the nature of being made of bone, it takes more damage from blows than from slashes.

The attack that attacked the enemy shattered ‘s excellent durability and brought about an easy victory.

[‘Eyes of the Reverse Heaven’ engraves deeper insight. Target:

[Acquire ‘high purity bone density’. This is a level 5 rare level skill. It is acquired by dropping to level 2.]

[Durability increases by 2.]

[Eyes of Reverse Heaven], which was activated as if it were natural, was a bonus.

* * *

After dealing with , we took a break.

I took some time to reorganize.

“Mwaaa.”

Keep going, keep going!

“Mmm, mmm…”

Jjuuuuk!!!

“Mmm. Huzmuah.”

“Hehe…”

.

The meaning may be different for each person, but I can say for sure.

‘For me, healing is… ‘

Let your favorite girl sit on your lap and pull her cheek, and that would definitely be the purest form of happiness.

“Hehe…”

“Mwaaa…”

“Boo, I’m jealous…”

Well, of course, it is all about mental recovery.

The wounds on my body did not heal.

The two of us are and .

He was attacked by , who was disguised as a stone statue, and had minor abrasions.

It’s okay though.

Because the precious is right next to you.

“Chi, !”

Choi Mari, who was looking at me with an envious face, closes her eyes and prays.

‘… As expected, he was born as a 4★ character.’

An incredibly powerful divinity can be felt in Choi Mari’s body.

It is probably a halo that can be shown because the [Divinity] value ridiculously exceeds 30.

but…

The results were so poor that it was hard to believe it was such a great divinity.

[Choi Mari uses ‘Healing’.]

[An unknown cause is interfering with her powers.]

[If you show your true worth, all holy methods will work properly.]

“…Mauu.”

Well, it’s me, I didn’t think much of it because I knew that Mari Choi in is a character who can’t afford to eat. Mari Choi seems very embarrassed.

I lower my head and blush with shame.

“…I’m sorry. I’m sorry for being a senior who can’t pay for food…”

“Oh, no…”

Anyway, the [Boss Room] is right around the corner.

If everything goes as I think, Mari Choi will definitely be able to unleash her powers.

About 10 minutes later.

The wound finally regenerated.

“All right, next is our junior’s turn~”

“…Seo, senior. My mouth is watering.”

“Oh, I wrote… I’m sorry.”

‘lol… Choi Mari smiles and heals Mnyang’s wounds.

Well, after all…

‘It’s taking too long.’

I glanced at the waterway I had passed.

It’s a crypt full of darkness…

The red world unfolding with an [unprecedented feeling] was showing that the monster was slowly regenerating.

If things continue like this, the group that restored power will attack again.

I can’t help it.

It is impossible to take any more time than this.

“Uh…Mari-senpai. I’m sorry.”

“…yes?”

I looked at Choi Mari, who was tilting her head, and spread my hand over Mnyangi’s wound.

[Activates ‘Rapid Healing’. The target’s injuries are recovered in proportion to the divinity level.]

[Strength does not recover.]

Unlike Choi Mari, her wounds regenerate quickly.

Her eyes widen at that sight.

“Did you learn how to stand, stand…?”

“Ahaha, yes.”

To be exact, I learned it yesterday.

An old old book given by Shinbitgaram.

The power prepared by the Suokbin guild leader was [Healing] used by Choi Mari.

‘… It must be ridiculously expensive… ‘

Where on earth did Suokbin get something like this?

Thanks to this, I acquired [Healing].

Is it because my divinity level is high here?

Even became possible.

Is it because there is no choice in this case?

It was applied right away.

[A merciful hand restores injured wounds.]

[Evolves into ‘rapid healing’.]

[This is a rare level ability.]

Unlike regular [Healing], [Rapid Healing] was a useful ability that could be used even during battle.

However, it has the disadvantage of having less recovery than [Healing] and a 20-minute cooldown.

The advantage of immediate activation overshadows all these disadvantages.

“……”

As Meuniang’s wounds are healed in an instant, Choi Mari looks on with a vain expression.

I stood up, scratching my head in regret.

“Well, shall we finish then?”

“…Mauu…Yes.”

Mari Choi sighs and closes her eyes tightly.

I bowed my head at my own uselessness and stood up quietly.
