Episode 62:
In his previous life, Taehyun had to constantly work hard.
Because I didn’t have the skills that everyone else had.
Because I wanted to become a player who was active in the Abyss on that topic.
I had to do hard training in a situation where I couldn’t even open the status window.
Mandatory, not optional.
Despite being a non-awakened person, his abilities were recognized enough to serve as a porter for the Abyss.
Taehyun’s talent, discovered late, was thought to be a result of hard work.
Even after regression, the hard work habit did not change.
Through quick training, I raised my physical abilities and quickly increased my strength and stamina speed.
But that’s not all.
It was impossible to compete with prominent players simply with the advantage of having memories of a past life.
Fortunately, unlike his previous life, Taehyun, who returned, had special powers.
Unique skill Predation.
Because of that power, Taehyun was able to become a growing awakened person.
A magic level that others find difficult to raise by 1 stat.
Taehyun grew quickly, understanding the nature of predation.
He preyed on his classmates and demons and ate monsters.
Skills increased one by one, and magical power increased dramatically through magic stones.
However, the hard training did not stop.
It didn’t take long for Taehyun to obtain the body he had when he was a porter.
naturally.
As my physical abilities grew, my grade went up.
From E grade to D grade. From D grade to C grade. And from grade C to grade B.
Although it was only a B-grade in terms of numbers, in reality, its power was equivalent to that of an S-grade player.
In the player test, its power was recognized and it received an S-class license.
If it’s short, it’s short, if it’s long, it’s a long activity.
Countless dungeon raids, battles between S-rank players and top-level demons.
With events that are difficult for an average player to experience even once in their lifetime.
Taehyun grew quickly once again.
Low grade S. Lower middle class. Middle class. Upper intermediate level. Senior level.
It was natural that skill proficiency increased each time one level was passed.
Through the unexpected Phoenix potions Sage’s Ring and Warrior’s Ring, his abilities increased significantly.
The highest level of S class, referred to as the national power class.
There is now only one step left toward the final step.
Taehyun was confident that he could deal with S-class advanced players without using Predation.
And Kwon Kang-hyuk is an S-class high-level player representing New Korea along with Park Seong-jin.
Although he had not yet obtained national power-level military power, he was a top ranker with skills comparable to that of his.
Coogung!!!
Kwon Kang-hyuk once again displayed the spirit of a knight king.
However.
“Are you done?”
It seems as if Kwon Kang-hyuk is insignificant.
Withstanding the crushing force, he took a step towards Taehyun.
“With the attack just now.”
Cooung.
Another step.
“The advantage is over. Little.”
Quaaaaaaaaa.
Kwon Kang-hyuk’s body was surrounded by enormous magical power.
The moment I thought the skill was activated.
Kwaaang.
Taehyun hit his body and flew through the air.
* * *
“….”
Pusssuk.
Taehyun pulled himself out of the hollow wall.
Even though it is a simple body slam, it has this much power.
If ‘Stone Skin’ had not been used, it was a shock that Taehyun would not have been able to withstand even with his current physical abilities.
‘Is this really because it’s just before jumping over the wall?’
Taehyun is not the only one growing.
A future SS class player, now called the national power class.
The SS level is an area that not only them but many other talented people will reach in the future.
Kwon Kang-hyuk was one of New Korea’s rankers who was not left behind.
‘Then how about this?’
[Skill Binding Chain (B) was used. Specifies the target.]
Cheollarak. Clap la la rock.
A quickly created chain wrapped around Kwon Kang-hyuk’s body.
‘There.’
[Skill Paralysis (B) was used. Specifies the target.]
The magic power disappeared from Kwon Kang-hyuk’s chained body.
At the same time, I could see my body becoming stiff due to the effect of paralysis.
“I heard you have a lot of skills. “Is this all there is to it?”
“It depends on how you use it.”
Taehyun increased the magic power injected into the chains of restraint.
Crash. Wow.
Kwon Kang-hyuk tried to escape by force, but it had no effect.
“Hehehe. “It’s no ordinary chain.”
“Please show me. “A skill known as the best tank in New Korea.”
Taehyun provoked by increasing the magic power injected into the chain.
The only skill that allowed him to be called the best tanker in New Korea.
‘Blessing of wild beasts.’
“haha!! Good posture. “He’s going to be a new member of our guild, so he needs to experience the guild leader skills at least once!!”
At that moment, Kwon Kang-hyuk’s body, which had been restrained by ‘chains of restraint’, began to change.
Just like the Grand Phoenix did.
A being with physical strength and strength that cannot be suppressed even by chains of restraint.
Fighting. Patter.
Kwon Kang-hyuk, now a 2-meter-tall bear, easily broke the chains of restraint.
“Hey have you ever been pawed by a bear?”
It’s like there’s no need to hear Taehyun’s answer.
A huge brown fist covered in fur swung out.
Not so fast.
An S-rank player can easily avoid this.
The moment when Taehyun calculated the speed and distance and dodged to the side.
Toad-duk-duk.
Kwon Kang-hyuk’s lower body changed into that of a tiger.
And then, using his elasticity, he narrowed the distance with Taehyun, who was falling to the side.
Quang!
I slammed my fist down on Taehyun’s guard.
Even though ‘Stone Skin’ was being used, the shock felt as if it were being hit with a hammer.
Patter.
Taehyun, who was once again pinned against the wall, got up.
“Surely this isn’t the end? “I still have a lot left to show.”
This time, one of Kwon Kang-hyuk’s arms turned into that of a lion.
‘Beast Protection’, a skill that borrows the power of a designated animal.
Those limits and risks were not known even in my previous life.
Just depending on the changing beast.
It was only revealed that the stats would be buffed.
When expected to be a shock transmitted beyond ‘Stone Skin’.
‘At my current state, my strength would be 180.’
At that level, his abilities were far higher than that of Taehyun, who had raised his abilities with the Wise Man’s Ring and the Warrior’s Ring.
In other words, Taehyun has no chance of winning in an ordinary close fight.
Nevertheless, no tension could be seen on Taehyun’s face.
‘not bad.’
This unreasonable fight will not end until both knees are down or their backs are on the floor.
Although it was unexpected that Kwon Kang-hyuk had already endured the ‘King of Knights’ spirit’.
That was all.
Being able to test your skills against the best tank in New Korea is an opportunity that doesn’t come easily.
Moreover, those who appear in friendly matches for Asian players are all strong players in their own countries.
To Taehyun, Kwon Kanghyuk in front of him seemed like a punching bag that would not be easily broken.
“The guild leader.”
Taehyun smiled and took out the talisman.
Put the power of skill ‘Paralysis’ into the blade and strengthen your body with ‘Stone Skin’.
“Do you have any more hidden beasts?”
Ssssssut.
Taehyun’s body quickly flooded in after using ‘Stealth’.
* * *
Quang. Quang. Kwaaang.
At the scene unfolding before their eyes, not only the Onsaemiro guild members, but also reporters holding cameras, and even Yoo Ah-young.
He was concentrating with his mouth open.
The sparring between the two players was already beyond a light fight.
bear. tiger. Cheetah. crocodile. lion. A wolf. leopard. elephant. Water buffalo, etc.
Taehyun’s Talisman was constantly swung against Kwon Kang-hyuk, who was using the ‘Beast’s Protection’ to attack in a variety of ways.
Has anyone ever shown this level of tension while dealing with Kwon Kang-hyuk?
Suddenly.
Tae-hyun’s talisman, who pulled off the reverse action, cut off Kwon Kang-hyeok’s arm and passed by.
“I must admit that you have a knack for running away.”
Kwon Kang-hyuk turned his body halfway and hit Tae-hyeon with the crocodile’s tail that had grown out before he knew it.
Quang!
Taehyun was once again thrown into the wall.
The battle disguised as sparring was clearly tilted towards Kwon Kang-hyuk.
While Taehyun’s attack did not cause any damage to Kwon Kanghyuk.
Kwaang!!
“Ugh…”
Kwon Kang-hyuk’s attack was gradually accumulating damage.
Taehyun stood up again, massaging his throbbing arms.
‘This is the last time.’
[I used the skill Knight King’s Vigor (B). Specifies the target.]
[Skill Paralysis (B) was used. Specifies the target.]
[Skill Binding Chain (B) was used. [Specify the target.]
The three skills overlapped and worked on Kwon Kang-hyuk’s body.
It was an attack that poured all of its magical energy into one last move.
“Hoo. “This one is pretty heavy, isn’t it?”
Kwon Kang-hyuk flinched as if he was pretty good, but that was all.
Quad deuk.
Once again engulfed in magic, he began to transform into a new beast.
Dinosaur.
Although its size was only 2 meters, the power it exerted made it difficult to call it an ordinary beast.
After completing his transformation, Kwon Kang-hyuk tore off the ‘chains of restraint’ and also shook off the energy of ‘paralysis’.
and.
Kwaduk!!!
Even the ‘Knight King’s spirit’ was lightly shed and his sharp teeth were sunk into Taehyun’s shoulder.
‘Stone Skin’ was so powerful that it was almost laughable.
“Ugh….”
Kwon Kang-hyuk lifted Tae-hyeon up with his teeth sunk in and threw him into the wall once again.
Huh. bang.
Damn.
The barrier set to the highest specifications could not absorb all of the impact and cracked.
It felt like I had already been thrown into the wall ten times.
If it weren’t for the barrier.
The damage was already felt to the onlookers.
“Is this really…are dinosaurs considered wild beasts?”
Taehyun grabbed his shaking legs and stood up.
Kwon Kang-hyuk burst into laughter at that sight.
This was because I thought that the game had already been won with the previous attack.
“Hehe. “If it hadn’t gone extinct, I would have kept one as a pet.”
“You’re bluffing.”
“haha!! I think the winner is a winner. Is it your knees or your back? It’s time to choose, kid.”
Kwon Kang-hyuk, who returned to his human form, approached Tae-hyeon and spoke.
Just as Taehyun analyzed Kwon Kanghyuk.
Kwon Kang-hyuk had also just finished analyzing Tae-hyeon.
His stamina and magic power are already low, and no matter what attack he uses, it won’t work on him now.
Taehyun nodded obediently.
‘surely. Although the intentions were impure, I can’t deny that it was a good time.’
Taehyun’s main skills excluding predation.
‘Stone Skin’, ‘Stealth’, ‘Paralysis’, ‘The Knight King’s Awesomeness’, ‘Chains of Binding’.
I thought I had raised my skill level quite a bit, but it didn’t work against someone as strong as Kwon Kang-hyuk.
Just seeing this in person made this sparring a memorable event for Taehyun.
“I think this is enough. “It will end soon.”
“Haha. Are you finally surrendering? Knees or back?”
“surely. “The knee would be better to make sure the hierarchical relationship is clear.”
Taehyun used his remaining magical energy to activate the last skill.
Tiring.
[Skill Complete Hypnosis (B) was used. [Specify the target.]
This time, the command was given with sincerity.
“Kneel down.”
dump.
It was as if a great will was at work.
Kwon Kang-hyuk knelt down on both knees without any resistance.
“uh…?”
An expression on his face that even he couldn’t understand what had happened to his body.
But the meaning of that action was clear.
“The guild leader… abstained!! “This is a victory for Taehyun Kim!!!”
The host announced the winner in a trembling voice.
No one there could open their mouths.
