The Player Hides His Past

Chapter 282: You are not special (1)



Chapter 282: You are not special (1)

Like taking a deep breath.

I concentrated on handling magic, swordsmanship, and [tenacity] as if it were natural.

This was a suitable match for that practice.

Level 820.

And a named monster, at that.

It was an opponent who made me so nervous that I couldnt just let my guard down.

Having a practice against such a monster.

It was truly reckless.

But I couldnt help it.

Training quest that pushed me to my limit every day.

Excalibur wielded with [tenacity] added to it.

Not only that, but even the sword that emerged from the rock.

This was the conclusion I came to and the path I had to take.

Still, my continued hardship served as the basis for my confidence.

In addition, the knowledge I accumulated as the Chief of the Mage Tower would also serve as a basis.

If you think its power has diminished, youre mistaken.

Magic tools that were crafted solely from magic existed in the Mage Tower.

Magic tools were mainly dealt with in enchantment studies.

The performance of those tools?

Even if there is no jackpot, the minimum is guaranteed.

The impurities or interfering elements wouldnt be mixed during the smelting process.

To put it systematically in Arcanas terms

It was classified as [rare] at a minimum and [unique] grade item at a maximum.

The problem was that its efficiency was severely reduced.

Because the enchantment school is the Mage Towers deficiency.

Smelting magic tools with pure mana was the act of creating something from nothing through magic. But as long as the [Blessing of the First World Tree] existed.

I didnt have to worry about mana.

Sk

The power of the sword created by pure magic was not as excessive as the ethereal iron.

But it wasnt ordinary either.

Yes, that meant it was perfectly suitable as a whip.

[Confusion occurs in the Champion Challenger Giant Rat.]

Stand upright.

!

Didnt I tell you? My teaching will be strict.

Squeak!

Swoosh!

Indeed, as expected of the Champion Challenger.

Even with my cold scolding, it immediately came to its senses.

It came charging while baring its big teeth.

Whether it is magic or swordsmanship, I can easily use anything.

However, the important thing was the use of flowing mana, sword force, and [tenacity].

[Tenacity is converted into mana.]

I immediately converted [tenacity] to manifest magic.

The magic I was about to manifest was an architectural magic that I was most familiar with.

Cumbersome processes were boldly omitted from special exploration.

Crack!

Eventually, a rock wall rose up.

Because the exploration and interference processes were completely skipped, you wouldnt even be able to see the rising process. I was not just complimenting myself. The players reactions were proof of that.

A-A wall appeared out of thin air?!

What is that? I-Ive never seen anything like that even in the Mage Tower?

Youve taken another step forward, Commander.

Among them, the reaction of Hisagi, who spoke meaningfully with his snake eyes open, was particularly burdensome. But again, I couldnt express it. Moreover, as someone who valued procedure, how could I turn my attention away from the disciplined subject?

If you cant focus on the discipline, I will make you.

I was the one who couldnt concentrate.

As expected, he was good at saying shameless things.

The giant rat tilted its head as if it was dumbfounded.

Squeak?

But soon, the rock walls that came up from all sides completely surrounded it.

Crack!!

With sudden restraint, it crashed into the rock with its heavy body.

But this was a wall built by me, Lee Hoyeol, who could be called the founder of architectural magic.

Making a commotion is prohibited. But in this situation, theres nothing you can do about this.

Crack!

Even if it was cracked.

Swoosh

This time, I could turn it back with the Reversal Magicthat I created.

So accept your fate.

Poor little wild beast of the mountain.

I will increase the intensity of corporal punishment from this moment onward.

Magic, swordsmanship, tenacity.

The path leading to the Trinity, under the guise of discipline.

Basically, with that course of action, you should cooperate.

.

.

.

Thud

Giant rats fell down with a scream.

[Your level has increased.]

Hisagi put aside the flashing message and surveyed the battlefield.

The arrival of the Goddess completely reversed the atmosphere.

More than anything, the [Blessing of the First World] played the biggest role.

The effect was great, as expected.

Whos injured?

Hisagis question was immediately answered with a resounding answer.

Everyone is safe!

Even after fighting level-800 monsters, nobody suffered damage.

It was a battle record that couldnt be explained in words.

Hisagi spoke proudly.

It must be thanks to the Goddess of Victory being with us.

?

Before she knew it, a moniker was already attached to the Goddess?

Toyomo was startled and caught her breath, but it was only for a moment.

The battle was concluded.

The players attention naturally shifted to Hoyeol.

Still, its not easy.

The 100,000 caves in Zero Mountain were more formidable than they could imagine.

Lets take the dungeon or the labyrinth as an example.

The number of named monsters per boss usually was no more than five.

Thats why the demon kings are special.

The named monster controlled by the demon kings.

On average, the number of demon army commanders started from ten.

However, the common sense they had until now didnt apply to Zero Mountain.

This is the tenth!!

It was just the beginning.

You couldnt tell how far the sanctuary extended. The number of named monsters that appeared at the entrance was already uncountable.

Hisagi measured the force with his thin eyes.

The reason we were able to survive.

As he said, it was because of the effect of [Blessing of the First World Tree].

Because the giant rats they faced were ordinary monsters.

Because their patterns were simple.

In other words, they were able to deal with it skillfully because they had become proficient in it.

Tomoyo quietly opened her mouth.

If the Commander wasnt here

Whether with a blessing or whatever it was, we couldnt have reacted.

I guess so.

Just by looking at its movement, it was clearly different.

It didnt seem to have any pattern in particular.

Such [Champion Challenger Giant Rat] jumped at Hoyeol.

Regardless.

Hoyeol didnt allow even a single strike.

Hisagi laughed quietly.

I am so ashamed, I cant even face him anymore.

Hoyeols deep consideration.

Even if it was said to be a cave of the Zero Mountain.

For the Commander-in-Chief, who was the Dragon Lord and the Dark Dragon, it would be nothing more than a trivial hunting ground. No, considering Hoyeols incomprehensible level, it couldnt even be called a hunting ground.

Even if its a level-820 named monster.

Considering Hoyeols required experience level.

Even if he hunted thousands of them, it would only be an insignificant number.

In that regard, this could have been a meaningless waste of time.

You give up your precious time just for us.

His pride was infinitely deep.

Now that Hisagi realized that fact.

He couldnt afford to stay still.

Since Hoyeol had given up his precious time, they must live up to his expectations.

They had to repay it.

Hisagi ordered.

Lets begin the full-scale search.

Explorers of the Great Alliance began to search the cave with class-exclusive equipment, magnifying glasses. They might obtain loot and information that could be linked to quests.

I dont think these will be enough as repayment.

Maybe Hoyeol knew more about this cave than explorers did. It wasnt just a blind faith. See one and know ten.

It was Hoyeol who had pulled out Excalibur which had been buried somewhere in the sanctuary.

Nevertheless, Hisagi knew.

What was important was pride.

So he muttered quietly.

Please do not reject our pride, Commander.

It was a promise that would have made the person concerned appalled if he had heard it

[Fortress of the Rose Vine]

[Recommended level: 750]

[Collapse progress: 100%]

Monster level?

Considering the gap in level, it was only natural that it was not easy to deal with.

But Leonies job was berserker.

It was a class that became stronger in adversity.

Unquenchable Fighting Spirit (Master): As vitality decreases, strength, agility, and vitality regeneration greatly increase. Additionally, a critical hit is converted to a status abnormality, bleeding.

Continuous damage was often referred to as dot damage.

That meant it was damage that lasted over time.

Bleeding was one of the typical dot damage status abnormalities.

Drip

Leonie, whose entire body was covered in blood, spat out blood.

Tch.

Even if saying this would be like spitting in her own face, no matter how she thought about it, berserker was a class with many flaws. She had to risk her life every moment to perform against high-level monsters.

I want to grab the bastard by the collar, really.

Back in the days when Arcana was just a game, it would just end with logging out.

However, after the Cataclysm, you would lose your life.

That meant if you werent careful, you would cross the River Styx.

[Status abnormality, bleeding occurs.]

In that sense, bleeding was a bit of a wasteful, but it was absolutely necessary. If you could turn a critical hit into dot damage, you wouldnt suddenly be out of battle.

Clang!

Leonies dual swords struck without stopping.

Other guild members were no different.

A fighting style that pushed oneself to their limits.

The Berserker Guild was a guild that only accepted people like her.

Ha

But now she was overwhelmed too

Screech

She let out a deep sigh.

Even for a berserker who specialized in fighting powerful enemies, it was difficult to make up for the gap of 250 levels. Moreover, it was natural that their concentration decreased as the battle lasted longer.

That was common sense, but berserker was extremely contradictory.

Im so fucking annoyed!

A class that could only perform properly when their body and mind were in tatters.

On the verge of falling off the tightrope.

She had to endure the current pressure to move forward.

Unnie

The Great Alliance knew that.

The Berserker guild members looked at Leonie with pity.

Leonie pushed herself to the limit at every moment.

That personality of her got weird too

You guys thought I was talking bullshit just now, didnt you?

H-Huh? What are you talking about?

Talking bullshit.

Leonie laughed.

It was said that there were people whose personalities strangely changed after waking up as players.

Perhaps she, too, was influenced by that awakening.

To relieve the pressure of reaching the limit in each battle.

She had to spit out a curse word.

So in other words, right now she had reached the limit.

You guys probably thought its been a fucking long time since I cursed, right?

Yeah, to keep up that damn formality.

She was uncharacteristically careful of what she said.

But, any more than that would be difficult.

Leonie mumbled quietly.

Still, pride is more important than formality, isnt that right, Commander?

When facing the monster, her vision turned red.

The blood flowing down from the bleeding wound seemed to have entered her eyes.

It was lukewarm and strangely sticky.

Commander Lee Hoyeol.

If that person, who paid attention to every detail of his clothes, saw what she looked like

He would be shocked for sure.

Leonie smirked.

But What if this is the pride I thought it was?

Leonie didnt forget.

The day that marked the beginning of the Great Alliance.

The public evaluation that poured out.

Gaon and Inazuma are united??

I never thought Id see this in my lifetime 

But why Berserker, not Second Sun?

  Thats why their level suddenly drops?

They were rookies not too long ago.

That didnt mean their evaluation was wrong.

It wasnt wrong, so she was even more pissed off.

Of course, she was not the type of person to get discouraged easily.

She gritted her teeth and swung her sword to chase after Nam Taemin and Hisagi.

Only then

I thought I would be able to chase them as well.

But while working in the Great Alliance, this was what she felt.

Following the two big guys.

And chasing after them.

She realized that it was impossible with formality.

Because I am neither elegant nor noble as you are.

Just be herself.

Befitting of a berserker, she had to be brutal.

In other words, she realized that she could chase after their trail.

Ha.

Leonie burst into laughter.

Yeah, what on earth was her pride?

She still didnt know.

You all understand this, dont you?

Thud

With that said, finally.

A sword fell from Leonies hand.

Ah.

Damn it.

See, she lost all her strength while speaking with inappropriate honorifics

While Leonie was having a thought that was really like her.

Gooo

A group of lights appeared in the air.

Tap tap.

A familiar footstep.

She heard a voice.

You seem to be greatly mistaken about formalities, Leonie.

?

But, Ill let it pass.

A jacket that no longer fluttered.

With a halo that was more glorious than ever.

Hoyeol appeared and continued.

For now, just realizing pride is enough.

.

.

.

I immediately appeared in a portal.

-The target coordinate is [Fortress of the Rose Vine]!

The words came from Nam Cheolmin, an analyst who was briefing three caves at the same time. He decided that Leonie needed support, so I planned to move directly through the portal.

Goo

As expected, it consumed a significant amount of mana.

I would have to use sword force for a while after I arrived.

The moment I stepped into the portal with a plan in advance.

Hisagi asked politely.

If you need any help, Ill follow you.

Thank you for your words.

The prospect is not good

It seemed more burdensome for me to consume mana to move each and every one of them through the portal than receiving support from them one by one. With that in mind, I answered like I usually did.

I am alone is enough.

Bow

Hisagi immediately bowed his head and saw me off, as if he knew this would happen. Even if you owe me a lot since Frost. That reaction is very burdensome, Hisagi!

Whatever, its complicated to explain.

I swallowed down the sigh that built up.

The moment I advanced into the swarm of light.

A message appeared in my darkened vision.

[The skill, Natural Enemy Relationship is activated.]

Was it because of my experience of the Arcana Continent of tracking down the primordial evil while performing class quests?

My increasingly keen senses told me.

At this when moment the coordinates were reversed.

The presence was felt not in a cave, but in the Zero Mountain.

But what were the odds of such a coincidence occurring in this world?

You presumptuously showed yourself in front of me again.

I didnt know, but.

There was no way Grandfel wouldnt remember the demon he once faced.

It was the day of the Mage Towers regular conference, when the senior mage, Banglet, went on a rampage.

The question mark demon that encountered in the [Cracked Dimension Gap] rupture.

There was a clear presence of him.

With his right arm out.

The big guy ripped through the dimensions and ran away.

In this case, the timing was right.

I was now finally fully prepared.

[Level: 700]

I finally got to wear it properly.

The name itself was grandiose.

[Jacket of the One Who Waits for Dawn]!
