_ Volume 12, Episode 4
279. Amelia Aerin (1)
Taesan opened her mouth.
“You will find out soon.”
“…okay. You will find out soon.”
Amelia controlled her emotions. The ghost flew to her as if it were curious.
[This is amazing. It’s strong… but something artificial. Should it be called the strength created?]
“You’?”
Amelia’s eyes widened when she saw the ghost.
“Why are you here?”
[yes? Do you know me?]
“Didn’t you end up on the 10th floor?”
Amelia seemed to know about ghosts. And he was embarrassed to see that the ghost was still attached to Taesan’s side.
Seeing her expression, Taesan realized.
Amelia also received the ghost’s quest
.
In hindsight, it was natural. There was no way the ghost would drive Amelia, who had a talent worthy of God’s approval. First of all, he should have given you a quest.
However, breaking up on the 10th floor meant that Amelia did not receive the quests after that.
It was a quest to defeat the ogre sage, obtain information, and confront the leader of the guide.
The ghost must have realized that too, and possessed an interesting voice.
[Hoo. I roughly guessed it,
but this is amazing. That me over there broke up on the 10th floor…]
[I understand why.]
The ghost smiled.
“I guess it was judged that you couldn’t reach the leadership. I think that’s why it ended there so that you don’t die in vain.]
“You.”
Amelia’s face contorts.
Ignoring her display of emotion, the ghost flew to Tae-san.
[It’s fun. The energy of God is very strong. It pushes it that way, right?]
The ghost said that it must have been judged that Amelia couldn’t reach the leadership, but it probably wasn’t. Amelia has enough talent to reach the depths.
Rather, it was highly likely that the ghost, who knew the true nature of the Fall God, was wary of it because it was too close to the Fall God.
“…joy. it’s okay.”
she turned around It was like a cat
whining.
“The story is after the battle.”
She closed her eyes with sharp words.
Amelia has a very strong ego.
But that pride won’t be perfect. It looks solid, but it is self-esteem that can be easily broken like a sand castle. So, the god of the fall must have chosen her.
Taesan was thinking of breaking it. Oliver, who
had been listening quietly,
tilted his head.
“Why is Amelia talking and staring at the sky by herself?”
He’s on hard mode. I couldn’t see the ghost. It must have seemed to Oliver that Amelia was talking to herself and then suddenly distorted her face.
“You don’t care.”
“Alone mode has a lot of secrets. Anyway nice to meet you I am Oliver Kahn. He is America’s leader.”
He asked for a handshake with Taesan. Taesan stretched out his hand. I could feel
the strength in the tightly gripped hand
.
Oliver asked with a hard face.
“Do you think we are cowards?”
Taesan knew what Oliver was asking.
The way only Americans win with the violence of numbers. It was definitely a cowardly way to say it. But Taishan shook his head.
“There must be a lot of people who think that way. I don’t think so.”
Everyone is desperate to survive. It was natural for Oliver, the leader of the United States,
to use a method that was advantageous to their survival.
Oliver’s face softened a little at Taesan’s answer.
“That’s good. I’m so glad one of the strongest humans said that.”
At those words, Amelia, who had closed her eyes, opened them. She looked at Oliver with a betrayed look for a moment, then looked away when Tae-san looked at her.
“Taesan.”
Oliver said calmly. “You
said you were not cowardly to us .
So… you wouldn’t think so of what would happen in the future, would you?”
“Whatever you do, I don’t care.”
It didn’t make any sense anyway.
Oliver grinned at Taesan’s words.
“good. I’m relieved to hear your answer. Amelia.”
“Do whatever you feel like. It’s useless anyway.”
Amelia said curtly.
Taesan looked at the rest of the players. They were wary and curious
about Mount Tai .
and among them. The one with the yellow cloth on her arm was Amelia.
“There is no Alone Mode.”
“Not everyone is as strong as Amelia. Sure, they’re stronger than most hardmode players… but they’re not up to our level yet.”
The growth potential of Alone Mode is obviously great, but that was only after going down a certain level. In the beginning , hard mode players who
could cooperate and attack quickly had the upper hand.
After talking with Oliver, the time had come before I knew it. They all began to be summoned to the battlefield.
wide plains. In the middle of it, the summoned Taishan perched on a rock.
People who seemed far away began to gather one by one. All but one human being gathered and they surrounded Mount Tai.
Seeing the faces of those who appeared, Taesan murmured.
“There is no Amelia.”
“She said she would give herself up rather than fight together. She is a very proud woman. I’m not in a situation to care about that.”
said Oliver bitterly. They were fighting for survival now. Pride was of no value.
“Taesan. you said. I don’t think you’re cowardly.”
Oliver winked. Thirty players simultaneously took out a potion from their pockets.
Car Cha Cha Chang!
and threw it to the floor A thick venom began to spread.
[Oliver has become poisoned.]
System windows informing of poisoning appear. Oliver, whose face has turned purple, draws his weapon.
“Looking at you coming this far, you are very strong. But it must have consumed a lot.”
Taesan is a South Korean solo mode player. Lee Tae-yeon and Kang Jun-hyuk fought and came up.
I don’t know exactly what level their strength is. They
couldn’t get proper information because it was hidden by the status of Mount Tai.
However, with only the intermittent information, it was possible to know that the two were incomparably stronger than the hard mode.
Those two and Taesan had a fight. Oliver’s guess was that Taesan must have consumed a lot of energy.
His guess came from the fact that Taishan appeared the latest. Since they had fought against the two for over an hour, they naturally thought that their stamina and mana had been consumed to some extent.
So, use the poison to consume only a little bit of your remaining stamina.
The poison they used was not very strong as it consumed 1 health point every 5 seconds.
But now, his health was fixed at 100. It was very dangerous in this situation.
He poisons Taesan and runs away as best he can. It slowly gnaws away at his stamina. And whether his stamina is reduced to 0 by poisoning or he battles Amelia with barely any stamina left and is defeated. Whatever it was,
Amelia could win.
The poison reached Taesan. It was the moment when Oliver was sure of victory.
[Determining poisoning…]
[Determination successful! Poison resistance activated.]
“What?”
Oliver’s pupils widened.
Although buried in the middle of the poison, Taesan’s face did not turn purple.
“Is this the judgment? This is something new I learned.”
Against something that inflicts continuous damage such as poison, does absolute protection or poison resistance activate first?
The answer was the latter. After trying the resistance test first, it seemed that if it failed, the absolute blessing would be activated.
‘I wonder if I can use it.’
Taesan put that information into a corner of his head.
“Let’s finish it quickly.”
“Sleep… [You
activated
Marvas’ Dark Wave .]
One sign left. Taesan walked towards it. It wasn’t long before Amelia was seen.
Looking at Taesan, she opened her mouth.
“I am strong.”
said Amelia.
“I am the strongest. Even if you went deeper than me! My skills are superior!”
“okay?”
Taesan smiled.
“It’s fine if you think so.”
Taesan took one step closer to Amelia.
At that moment, a huge force crushed the battlefield.
At the same time, the system window appeared frantically.
[A compulsory rule is added.]
[1. Kang Tae-san’s shield becomes 1.]
[2. Kang Tae-san’s HP becomes 1.]
[3. Kang Tae-san’s mana becomes 1.]
[4. Kang Tae-san’s demonic energy becomes 1.]
[5. Kang Tae-san’s power is 1…]
At that moment, the system window was distorted. It felt as if huge forces were colliding with each other and canceling each other out.
Taesan opened the status window. From stamina to magic. all became 1.
However, the strength, agility, intelligence, and attack power
were the original numbers.
Taesan, who looked up at the sky for a moment, spoke briefly.
“thank you.”
After thanking the person who helped Taesan on the other side, Taesan approached Amelia again.
“Amelia Aerin. Declaration here.”
Taesan said. As if to tell the absolute truth. As if that would definitely happen.
“I will not use any skills. And I ‘ll take
you down with a single blow .”
Amelia’s face wrinkles.
She grits her teeth and draws out a sword.
“Try it somewhere!”
[Amelia activated Rage.]
[Amelia’s fair duel activated.]
[Amelia activated the one higher than anyone else.]
[Amelia activated the weak grace of God.]
Numerous powers dwell in Amelia. all. Among them, there were skills that Taesan had not acquired
.
A skill that only Amelia can receive, given to her directly by the God of Fall.
Taesan nodded.
“It’s fine.”
Certainly, Lee Tae-yeon was much stronger than Kang Jun-hyeok.
But that was it.
Taesan took a step closer to Amelia. Amelia raised her fighting spirit and tried to respond to Taesan’s movements.
she was confident
he is strong Even if the opponent was stronger than himself, he was able to fight and win.
In fact, the losers of the labyrinth called Guide of Sin could not block her attack even though they were on a higher floor than her.
Taishan is no different. It seems that he has gone deeper than himself, but there is not that much of a difference. He is strong enough to jump through floors. she believed it
And with that skill,
[Amelia activated Path to Victory.]
Road to victory. It was a skill she obtained after passing the trial of the god of fall.
This skill finds the potential for victory in even the most hopeless situations.
Even in extreme situations where she thought no one would win, the road to victory always brought her victory.
After activating the skill, Amelia
focused on Taesan.
And she realized
Taesan was walking toward him in a normal manner. The gap was full enough to attack anywhere.
But a warning sounded in my head. It was a conviction close to a prophecy that the moment you poke a gap, you are the one who suffers.
Amelia’s eyes twitched.
“Are you going to stay?”
that buck
Taesan was right in front of her before she knew it.
Sweat ran down her cheeks.
No answer comes out.
Even though it was full of gaps that looked very relaxed, I couldn’t poke it. Taishan raised his fist.
“Block it.”
The fist moved. The move was also very late. It was a speed that even an ordinary person could easily avoid.
[Amelia’s line of death has been activated.]
You have to avoid it.
And you have to fight back and win. just like it used to be
But it is impossible.
The road to victory, which had always given her confidence, was not activated. As if they couldn’t win, no matter how hard they tried, even if they competed thousands of times.
Dozens of tools pass through Amelia’s head. However, all of them were destroyed and broken apart.
‘…in action!’
Just before their fists touched, Amelia barely moved. Move your whole body to roughly evade your fist. Then he lowered his posture and dug into Taesan like a wave.
The sword drew dozens of afterimages.
It was a move that was one step above that even she herself had not been able to do. In extreme circumstances, she pushed her limits.
However, Taesan casually corrected the trajectory of his fist.
The traces of dozens of swords were all shattered and shattered by the outstretched fist.
Amelia raises her sword in amazement. The fist meets the sword.
Kwajik.
The sword breaks. It pierces the defense, and the fist that pierced the defense lands on Amelia’s face.
“Lie down for now.”
Her consciousness was cut off there.
Level up with skill
