149. The past, the present, the future (1)
A few days have passed.
After taking my advice, Amkena did not reply.
However, it was clear that the attitude had changed. According to Isell, traces of replaying the mission video several times were found in the cell phone records. He started to study on his own.
‘He has a sense of improvement.’
It’s not like you’re playing mindlessly.
It meant that the basic requirements to become a ranker were met. There were many masters who asked why I study while playing games. It won’t work right away, but it will get better with time. I was satisfied with that and devoted myself to training.
day training camp.
“Do I have to do this?”
Jenna put on a puzzled expression.
A whip with thorns was in his hand.
“It’s too rough. I think it’s okay to relax.”
“I don’t want to waste time.”
“No matter what…”
Jenna’s complexion darkened.
The training grounds of the training camp. I’m catching my breath with my upper body undressed.
Next to it is a bathtub full of red liquid. It was filled with dozens of bottles of recovery potion.
‘We need to develop durability.’
It was a decision made to properly use Exceed and Bladed Soul.
There is no way this has been done so far. Special measures were needed. So, the method I decided on was this.
Repeating damage and recovery of the body in the arena where healing in the waiting room does not work.
To this end, a large amount of recovery potion was stolen from the warehouse.
“I did this to my older brother…”
“Isn’t there anyone else who will make you do this? When are you going to shoot arrows at vital points, and how many lashes will you be at a loss for?”
“but!”
“This is for the best. I don’t want to repeat the experience of the 35th floor.”
There is no weaker way.
However, it took a long time and the efficiency was low. Now I had no intention of covering the means and methods.
Jenna made a reluctant face and finally nodded.
“Strike with all your might. I know everything if you lose your strength.”
“all right.”
I turned my back on Jenna and gagged my mouth.
‘Pain is familiar.’
I remembered the appearance of the whip.
It is made by weaving animal tendons, and has a spike at the end to tear flesh and muscle. It was more like an instrument of torture than a weapon.
‘are you okay.’
The pain is familiar.
However, I don’t want to taste the feelings from a while ago again.
I ruminated once again.
“I’ll go!”
The whip tore the wind.
Kwajik!
Stars flashed in front of my eyes.
‘What the fuck…’
The whip tore through the skin and muscles on his back and penetrated to the inside.
I bit the gag.
I can still stand it.
“A single shot covered in blood…”
The effect is good.
I catch my breath
After hesitating, Jenna moved her hand again.
Wedge liquid!
second blow.
The whole back was hot like it was on fire.
It was as if the skin had been completely peeled off.
‘It hurts more than I thought…’
My vision was blurred with sweat.
I then winked. A signal to continue.
The whipping continued. three times five times nine times.
I calmed down my clouded mind.
It is just a simple preparation process.
“Nine times!”
“it’s okay.”
“Why is this so…”
I looked behind me.
A bloody back was reflected through the metal wall.
‘This must have been enough to dig the bones.’
I went straight into the bathtub next to it.
The potion started seeping into the affected area.
“Kuk!”
I couldn’t stand it this time.
When he spit out the gag, blood flowed from his mouth.
“Gwa, are you okay?”
“…of course.”
only one set.
I had to go through at least ten sets a day.
If done right, it will have excellent durability and resilience.
Gone are the days when a few sandbags would work.
Now, he needed a training intensity suitable for his superhuman body.
to the next.
Whoo!
A log hanging from a steel rope is reciprocating from side to side.
It is shaken by a mechanical device.
“…”
one. two.
I timed it and cut through the logs.
A huge log that could have been several meters came right in front of us. I lowered my lower body and swung the wooden sword.
bang!
It felt like being hit by a truck.
The actual impact will not be less than that.
hold out
added strength to the hand.
I tried to balance somehow, but my feet slipped.
The log that pushed me started to go back and forth at both ends again.
“What training is that?”
Belquist, who was watching from the side, said.
I looked down at my hand. Blood flowed from the cut.
“It’s to develop resistance. It’s a training to block logs with a wooden sword without breaking them.”
“It only looks crazy to me.”
“Maybe right now.”
It is necessary to shed an impact amount of several tons in place.
It can be smashed head-on like a ballista harpoon. But then the training is meaningless. As far as sense and skill.
‘This or that takes a long time.’
The stage where you can instantly recruit heroes is over.
It took time to restore the power lost on the 35th floor. It was the same whether it was a paid draw or a free draw. I had to master the mission and at the same time raise my level and skill to the appropriate level.
‘Is it time to move on to the next step?’
Amkena will be feeling it too.
The fact that a little more systematic system was needed.
It was time to put flesh on the operation.
Well, that will eventually take time.
I was going to do some personal training and wait for Amkenna to decide. Reorganizing the capture party and creating a new system are useless without the will of the Master.
‘Don’t make me wait too long.’
I grabbed my wooden sword and jumped in front of the log.
after a while
[Skill Awakening!]
[‘Han (★★★)’ has acquired ‘Regenerative Power (Lv
.
regenerative power. It was literally a skill that increased the body’s natural resilience. However, I did not stop because it had nothing to do with the durability of the body.
Every evening, I played mock battles with Amkena.
After a few days, Amkena’s skills rose to beginner level. Even if the talent is not excellent, the enthusiasm is visible. He seemed to be studying hard.
Several days passed again.
[Master.]
Yurnet’s voice tickled his ears.
when late in the evening. I was in the middle of sorting papers at my desk.
[Sorry if you were sleeping.]
“I was doing chores.”
[It seems that I haven’t been in contact lately…]
“I have a lot of work to do.”
Niflheim had been postponed.
Communication with Yurnet was the first since leaving Iolka.
I put the papers in the drawer and locked it.
“What’s up? I didn’t invite you to say hello.”
[I wanted to say goodbye.]
“It’s a funny joke.”
[…whenever they say they contact you every week.]
“Hmm?”
[it’s nothing. My throat was itching for a while.]
Yurnet coughed and then continued.
[I have something to report to the Master. Since it is a serious matter, I have determined that I cannot decide on my own.]
“It is a serious matter.”
I put my back on the chair.
Something that the current sub-master, Yurnet, cannot decide.
There is only one thing that comes to mind.
“Is it a reunion?”
[As expected, Master. You got it right.]
“It’s okay to give compliments. If you have something to tell me, tell me.”
[There is a rumor that the troops of the Unity Society are gathering in one place.]
“The results of the investigation?”
[It’s true. Hundreds of airships are gathering across the server.]
I chuckled.
The World Raid didn’t even open.
However, at this timing, they are gathering troops out of nowhere.
‘It’s obvious.’
[Master, you bastards… No, the operation by the members of the Unity Society has been confirmed.]
“I saw that.”
Among the comments on the video uploaded by Amkena, there was something that stood out.
It is to recruit prospective members of the solidarity.
Although it was neglected in indifference.
[It’s a little different.]
“It’s different?”
[Look at it.]
A window appeared in my field of vision.
Play mark in red square. He was the icon of Mu-Tube.
However, the background is slightly different. This is…
‘It’s my channel.’
It was Loki’s channel.
It has about five million subscribers.
The last video update was 6 months ago.
The screen went over.
It was the most recent video clip.

I came up with the concept of cilantro, but this person also charges a lot.
It’s all a concept. It’s all luck, not skill. It just happened because I was lucky enough to pick a good hero.

If you’re really going to charge, you should do it like my brother.
Isn’t he just fat?

people suddenly came out with missing screws. What kind of inferiority do you have? Why would you do this with Loki?

Hundreds of comments are plastered with similar content.
Almost the same, only the id has changed. Even if you wrote a part-time job, it is a reliable organization.
I scraped it down and closed the window.
[Comments were being posted on the video Master left at the same time.]
I ended up laughing.
what a cute thing
[The exact time is a week ago in Earth time. This is after the Barts Union has been destroyed.]
“Barts Union?”
[It is said that it was created to counter the reckless looting of the Unity Society. I don’t think I could last even a week. That’s not what’s important.]
Yurnet said in a strong tone.
[We need a Master.]
“Really?”
[yes. The Master is in Niflheim…]
“Is Niflheim inferior to these guys?”
Yurnet cleared her throat.
[If the Master is there, it means that our losses are small.]
“Do it yourself. I didn’t make it so poorly.”
[…whenever you say you won’t forget.]
“Hmm?”
[Nothing.]
Do you really need me in Niflheim?
Not really. Niflheim’s operating system has already been completed.
‘Except for emergencies.’
But I never did, so I don’t know.
I have always been at war with missions.
PVP was just a side branch.
“You handle it properly. When it’s over, let me know the result.”
[Master, if I ask you like this… can’t you?]
“Why do you ask me that?”
[I can’t remember Master’s face.]
I sighed.
“Tell me clearly. Why do you need me?”
[Because I don’t have the authority to command the 1st party in Niflheim.] ”
You mean to assemble the 1st party?”
[Yes.]
‘….’
I clenched my chin.
.According
to reports, other rankers were not touched.
Only me.
‘I knew you would come.’
It was faster than I thought.
‘What can a low level player do in a battleground at the highest level?’
“Okay,”
I replied.
Yurnet continued in a brighter voice.
[I’ve sent a dispatch request to the Master of Taoni. He’ll understand. The Airship will arrive in two days. Keep it safe until then.]
“Call the kids from outside. You won’t get attacked. And I’d like to have their detailed strength and battle data.”
[As commanded.]
Yurnet said before disconnecting.
[Thanks for listening, Master.]
“What are you talking about?”
Promised to help.
The process before that was just a joke. There’s no way I could deny it
.
A break to replenish power.
It was a time when it was okay to be away for a while.
I looked at the ring on my left hand.
Black gloss flowed along the surface of the ring.
This gift from Eunet was said to prove that he was the owner of Niflheim.
The price I received . ‘ War
.’
Niflheim does not avoid fights. They
always faced each other in front.
No matter who it was.
There were numerous challengers. Whether it was
a super-large guild with hundreds of members, guild unions on other servers, or rankers that were the same as me.
‘129 wins in 129 matches.’
It was time for my 130th, and
I got up.
