Episode 120
.
A beautiful outdoor garden with a running stream.
In the old-fashioned teahouse, Sakura spoke in a serious voice.
“what’s the matter?”
Unlike usual, Sakura wears plain clothes with her hair tied up and even wearing orange sunglasses. Siwoo Lee took a sip of hot black tea and asked casually.
“Be my sparring opponent. The period is until I am satisfied.”
Sakura’s eyes narrowed, and finally she sighed.
“…The promise is true, right?”
“okay. Because you were active too. If the dojang is reopened, it will soon be recognized as a training ground for city guards.”
This was the reason Siwoo Lee went to visit his father. The price, of course, is to use a gun again and become the successor to his father once he graduates from the academy.
‘Well, I have no intention of going under my real father.’
Siwoo Lee smiled at Sakura and said calmly.
“So what is the answer?”
Sakura had no reason to reject Lee Shiu’s offer. But I couldn’t hide my shaky feeling.
“…but why are you suddenly helping our dojang?”
Sakura’s eyes filled with doubt.
“just. it was embarrassing It’s true that your dojo’s archery is competent. Didn’t you have the feeling that my father pushed you?”
Ishiu’s story slightly loosened Sakura’s guard.
“…Hmm then why did you ask me to fight against you?”
In response to Sakura’s unguarded question, Siwoo Lee looked into her eyes and said.
“No other reason. I just found the strongest shooter I know.”
Sakura smiled as if she liked the answer.
“The period is until the next round. No more.”
Let Sakura speak firmly. Siwoo Lee shook hands.
“That’s enough.”
What Lee Si-woo needs is time to find a sense of shooting. In other words, it was a skill in its heyday.

Two days after absorbing the millennial jade.
It was an extremely short time to become stronger, but Shin Yoo-seong felt a tremendous change in his body.
‘What the hell is this power…’
Uncaptured mana running from the depths of the body.
If Shin Yuseong’s original mana was like a calm lake, the mana of the thousand-year-old was like a stormy sea with waves.
‘…It’s huge, but it’s just as dangerous as it was newly acquired.’
A different kind of power from the existing mana.
‘If only I could handle this power with mine. Surely…’
Shin Yooseong clenched his fists with serious eyes. Absorbing the power of the millennium jade without any problems is great, but now he tried to use that power freely.
“But Yoosung. Do you do it with real power?”
Eunah Kim’s voice coming from the front.
Only then did Shin Yuseong look at Kim Eun-ah. Kim Eun-ah was leaning against a tree and looking at Shin Yoo-seong with a worried face.
Kim Eun-ah knew that Shin Yoo-seong was strong, but as a party member, she couldn’t help but worry.
Kim Eun-ah muttered, “Umm-” and then fidgeted with her pocket.
“just in case. Would you like to put a barrier on it?”
“No, I like the naked body.”
Shin Yoo-seong shook his head despite Kim Eun-ah’s worries. But that wasn’t a passenger. The barrier’s mana wavelength was no different from an obstacle to Shin Yoo-seong, who had to sharpen his senses.
“Ummm… I get it…”
An unreasonable request to attack a colleague with all his might. However, no matter how unreasonable the request was, Kim Eun-ah had no choice but to accept Shin Yoo-seong’s request.
“charge.”
Grasp! Pajijiji!!
A blue electric current surrounded Kim Eun-ah. The high-output electricity created with a huge amount of mana had no concept of speed.
Kim Eun-ah’s gap is only exposed the moment she prepares to attack. The moment to respond is the precursor stage right before using mana. If he missed the opportunity, he would just be burned in a flash.
‘…to receive such an attack from the front.’
Eunah Kim concentrated her overflowing mana with her right hand. What she would use this time was a new skill that Kim Eun-ah had acquired by absorbing the Orb of the Thunder Dragon.
“Orca!”
Kurung! Kurreung-!
An image that is easy for you to imagine.
With Kim Eun-ah’s cry, the shape of a killer whale made of electricity began to fall from the dark clouds in the sky. The killer whale arrived at Kim Eun-ah’s right hand.
Saaa!
The shape of a killer whale was absorbed into Kim Eun-ah’s hand and turned into an intense light.
Pajak-Pajajajak!!
High-powered electricity that turns the surroundings into pure white.
Instead of a huge preparation step.
Kim Eun-ah’s skills were different in terms of destructive power and speed.
Geugguk-!!!
The land around Kim Eun-ah shuddered at the tremendous wave of mana. Kim Eun-ah collected the fluctuating electricity from her right hand with her index finger.
And now all that remains is the final step, release.
“Pierce-!”
Kim Eun-ah pointed her index finger at Shin Yoo-seong.
Gee-!!
It was like a flash or a laser.
As if the light of the whole world had gathered together, lightning shot from Kim Eun-ah’s index finger, emitting a bright blue light.
Pan-!
The force was so strong that the recoil pushed Kim Eun-ah’s body backwards. This destructive power is the reason Yooseong Shin chose her as the opponent in Chapter 5.
In front of Shin Yuseong’s eyes, the blue light created by the electricity flickered.
‘…if it’s simply measured by speed, it’s faster than telekinesis.’
Shin Yooseong instantly raised his concentration before being pierced by electricity.
‘…I can feel it. Mana in point form. And the location!’
Shin Yoo-seong was able to sense Kim Eun-ah’s mana spurting out with a strong presence more clearly than the mana particles in the air he felt when practicing the 5th chapter of the Shinto Ryu.
What Yuseong Shin is trying to induce is the ‘mana resonance’ phenomenon that usually happens by accident.
Shin Yoo-seong tried to directly control this rare phenomenon with his innate sense and characteristic, [Strengthening Concentration].
‘ship! Central!’
Shin Yoo-seong stretched out his arm and pointed out the point of mana fiercely. The target is the place where Kim Eun-ah’s laser will arrive.
‘At least the amount of mana doesn’t matter. The problem is the same kind of wavelength…’
To use this skill in practice, the calculation speed of reading the opponent’s skill’s mana wavelength was important. No matter how perfectly ‘Mana Resonance’ could succeed, it could not be used in practice if the speed was really slow.
Wow!
The wavelength of mana emitted from Shin Yuseong’s fingertips changed. The same wavelength as the nature of mana Kim Eun-ah used.
‘…This amount of mana is enough to throw it away.’
Thanks to the power of the millennium jade, the effect of Shin Meteor’s characteristic, [Enhanced concentration], was much higher than usual.
Blue mana particles that are clearly visible in the frozen time.
Shin Yoo-seong
‘s mana wave met with Kim Eun-ah’s mana wave.
phut-!
Shin Yoo-seong changed the direction of the skill that was fired. It wasn’t to offset Kim Eun-ah’s electric shock, but to interfere with Mana and change the path through which she passed.
Pajijiji!!
In the end, Kim Eun-ah’s special move, which got lost and got stuck on the ground. The heat of the powerful mana was melting the rock with a sizzling sound.
“Go all of a sudden! My electricity is on the ground!?”
Kim Eun-ah, who used a special move, was in a situation where she couldn’t help but be embarrassed. Even from Kim Eun-ah’s point of view, Shin Yoo-seong’s actions were all light hand movements.
“Did you cut off my electricity with just a gesture? How!?”
However, Shin Yoo-seong was also surprised.
‘…really successful.’
It also worked perfectly.
Just by using [Enhance Concentration], all five senses were awakened one step at a time, and I became more sensitive.
‘This is the power of the thousand-year-old….’
Shin Yuseong’s [Enhanced Concentration] was no longer at the level of being called an F-class trait. In addition, Shin Yoo-seong was able to fully utilize his strength thanks to his body trained through training.
innate constitution.
best master.
Characteristics optimized for you.
Shin Yuseong’s level was already far beyond students as well as level 5 active hunters. If you have practical experience, you might be able to beat a 6th grade hunter.
‘…As long as I’ve absorbed this much of the millennium jade’s power, I’ll be able to conquer the 10th floor of any tower.’
Let Shin Yuseong smile as he remembers Kang Yuchan’s request. Kim Eun-ah approached Shin Yoo-seong and urged him to make a fuss.
“hey! meteor! How did you do it? Have you really reached the point where you can block an attack with just a hand gesture?”
super sense.
Shin Yoo-seong said without hesitation, even though he had created and used a technology that no one in human history had ever succeeded in.
“just. I matched the wavelength of the same mana and let the attack flow.”
“A wavelength of mana? What is that… No way… Mana Resonance?”
“yes.”
Shin Yoo-sung’s plain reply made Kim Eun-ah sincerely hate it.
“No, not like that. You created Mana Resonance? Is that also freely?”
“No, I am not free yet. It’s something I need to focus on. I need some more practice.”
In response to Shin Yoo-seong’s answer, Kim Eun-ah touched her forehead with a headache.
“…feeling the waves of the skill and making mana resonance yourself? …it’s just a scam.”
Kim Eun-ah saw the 7th grade hunters in person. Shin Yoo-seong’s wave resonance was a technique that no hunters had even seen.
‘He’s really…’
Kim Eun-ah looked at Shin Yoo-seong with a disgusted expression. Although he already knew, his party leader went beyond common sense.
‘How strong are you?’
