Part 2 Episode 20
Labyrinth Harun.
There, the saint and the demon sword were moving quickly.
I can’t say it’s full power, but it’s also not comparable to walking.
Even with the help of someone with detection skills, it takes three full days to reach the end.
Although it is not well known.
“What a funny people. “You’re showing off some tricks.”
The demon sword next to her glanced at her.
“Are you talking about Yoo Ah-young?”
“is it so. “Maybe you wouldn’t have used that map if it weren’t for this bet?”
The saintess said after checking the map and speeding up.
The maps they carry are also not ordinary.
Denso’s masterpiece, imprinted with A-grade detection skills.
Because the detection skill is activated according to the progress of a grade A player, it is possible to overcome the labyrinth in one day.
Of course, if there had been no bet, I would have taken out a map with the appropriate detection skills engraved on it and ran for about 3 days to break through the labyrinth.
“Anyway, it’s annoying. The woman.”
Tsk.
The saint clicked her tongue, remembering Yoo Ah-young’s face.
Excellent military power and outstanding beauty.
As their age difference was not that long, a rivalry between them was formed in Asia.
“It’s unfortunate. “If I had gotten my hands on the map, the Kage and Denso guild leaders would have been happy.”
The demon sword said, recalling the map he had cut with his sword a little while ago.
“What you can’t have, you have to destroy.”
“Please take note.”
The saintess’s mood was relieved by her partner’s unhesitating answer.
“Should we speed up?”
“okay.”
When the two people concentrated their magic power on their legs, their speed improved to the level of an S-class player.
Sometimes, when the map stuttered and stopped, I was able to find the time to say hello to those wandering through the labyrinth.
That’s when I ran for about twenty more hours.
“Whoa… I can see the end now.”
If you drive another hour, you will arrive at the exit of the labyrinth.
Naturally, the Awakened Oath will be activated and victory will be declared.
It was around that time that the demon sword, which had been silent the entire time, opened its mouth.
“Why are you showing interest in Kim Tae-hyun?”
“oh. “It’s rude to arouse a woman’s curiosity.”
“….”
“Uhuhu. “It’s a joke.”
“I don’t like pranks.”
The demon sword muttered bluntly.
At times like this, he becomes more sensitive. There is no benefit in provoking me for no reason.
“Kim Tae-hyun is not an ordinary porter.”
“The level felt was clearly that of a B-class awakened person.”
“It is not a problem that can be resolved so easily.”
The saint recalled the suspicious behavior of Yoo Ah-young and Kwak Si-yang.
They may have behaved well to others, but Kim Tae-hyun’s attitude towards S-rank players was very natural.
“I guess he has good guts.”
“Hmm… I don’t know. For now, let’s just say it’s a woman’s feeling. Anyway, Shinji is slow to notice.”
Confident in her intuition, she grinned at her partner.
“….”
“Anyway. “We won.”
In the distance, you can see a huge wall indicating the exit of the labyrinth.
If you leave the exit, you will reach the gate to the 3rd floor in one day.
When there were about 30 minutes left until arrival.
Tiring.
[She has been designated as the target of skill magical power condensation (S).]
[She has been designated as the target of skill summoning ceremony (A).]
A message suddenly appeared before her eyes.
‘what…?’
“Tsurara…!!”
The ghost sword running side by side also showed a similar reaction.
The two people wrapped their entire bodies in magical energy without regard for who would go first.
at the same time.
Hahahahaha.
Their bodies were engulfed in an unfamiliar magical power.
I feel nauseous as if I were using a warp gate.
and.
“oh. “Is this really working?”
Before I even open my eyes.
The voice of Yoo Ah-young, breathing heavily, greeted them.
The saintess saw a huge, towering entrance.
The exit was clearly right around the corner, but in the blink of an eye, we had moved to the initial point.
‘What the hell is this…’
The saintess looked at her feet.
A huge warp magic circle and scattered magic power stones.
He and the demon sword were standing side by side on top of it.
‘Could it be… reverse summoned…? Me and Shinji?’
Her eyes turned to Kwak Si-yang, who was also out of breath.
‘I guess the author doesn’t have that skill?’
It’s when you don’t understand what’s going on.
“Wow, look at the sweat. “I guess I was running hard, but I’m sorry. What should I do?”
Yoo Ah-young took a deep breath and showed a pretentious appearance.
“It’s one-on-one.”
Kwak Si-yang said, wiping away the sweat.
and.
Taehyun was quietly drinking the potion.
“….”
“….”
Warping two national power levels on the move.
American Ricky Hallis, known as the world’s best magician.
Even for her, this is impossible.
“How…did you do it?”
The saint asked cautiously.
“as you see. “Guild leader Kwak Si-yang used some effort.”
Smile.
Yoo Ah-young answered, imitating the saint’s smile.
“That’s not what I’m asking.”
The saint’s voice became cold.
This is because Yoo Ah-young’s intention in answering Zen questions is clearly visible.
“That means. Can I take this as an abandoned bet? “If that’s the case, I could tell you.”
Wow.
The saint’s two hands were filled with strength.
However, hunting party members is against the Awakened Oath.
In order to form their party, the association also entered into a separate covenant, so it was necessary to keep the line.
“Would you like to continue? “I can do as many warps as you want.”
“oh. “Guild leader Kwak Si-yang looks like he’s lacking a lot of stamina?”
“Ahaha. If you are confident, you can start first.”
Yoo Ah-young did not give up a single step.
‘There is no way this level of warp can happen again and again…’
But the day was already spent.
‘There is no time to waste.’
The saint bit her teeth.
There are not many opportunities for the United States and China to see a gap like now.
If you miss this period, you will regret it forever.
‘Fox bitch.’
Contrary to expectations, the saint calmed down her emotions quickly.
“great. “It’s a draw.”
“Thank you for your rational judgment.”
The saint and Yoo Ah-young smiled and shook hands.
Ghost Sword and Kwak Si-yang, who were watching, showed expressions of surprise.
‘I’m more curious about this.’
The saint looked at Kim Tae-hyun, who was bowing his head behind Kwak Si-yang.
Even in this situation, there is no reaction.
That made it even more suspicious.
‘Well, now isn’t the only opportunity.’
The two women quickly lifted the Awakened Oath.
“Then I guess I’ll have to run hard for the next three days. “Now we only have one map left.”
Yoo Ah-young said while looking at Taehyeon holding the map.
This means that if you don’t use that map, you have to drive for three full days as planned.
“….”
“….”
The saint and the demon sword showed no reaction.
“This way.”
Taehyun looked at the map and started running at a slow pace.
Four S-rank players followed quietly.
* * *
‘What on earth is this….’
Kwak Si-yang, who was running while looking at Taehyun’s back, fell into such a question.
Running speed is not fast.
At first, I ran at the level of a B-grade player, but as the terrain of the labyrinth became increasingly complex, my speed was reduced to a D-grade level.
What is surprising is that Taehyun, who has only recently awakened, fully understands the map.
Even though the map is a magic tool that can be activated simply by infusing magical power, it feels very natural.
It’s like seeing a veteran porter.
No, if it were that bad, I wouldn’t feel this way.
‘It’s not just about national talent that can be ignored.’
It was two days ago that Kwak Si-yang became suspicious of Tae-hyeon’s identity.
It was from the time I was taught(?) by him.
Taehyun’s plan was simple.
The moving saint and ghost sword are reverse summoned here.
“Since we have established a party system, detecting coordinates is not impossible.”
“That sounds simple… but it’s not that easy.”
Unlike Yoo Ah-young, who stayed still, Kwak Si-yang actively explained the loopholes in the plan.
“The guild leader doesn’t fully understand the skill yet.”
“what…?”
At first, I thought it was an arrogant remark intoxicated with his own talent.
After winning the bet with Ji Jin-hee, he was the one who caused two S-rank players to struggle with his excessive skills and caused the tower manager to come forward and issue the quest.
No matter how talented you are in manipulating magic, how dare you discuss the skills of an S-rank player?
Also about his ‘magical condensation’, which is said to be the best magician in New Korea.
“Kim Tae-hyun. “You speak as if you know my skills very well.”
Kwak Si-yang’s voice became crooked.
“S-rank skill magic condensation. “I understand that it is similar to Ricky Harlis’ Energy Compose, a national powerhouse in the United States.”
“You don’t think you fully understand what the media is talking about, do you?”
It’s not just yesterday that the media is talking about the skills and status window of named players.
When I thought that Taehyun was one of those people, I felt disappointed.
It was a mistake.
“Aren’t you already used to the new skill enough to imitate it?”
‘How can you do that…’
Taehyun is speaking calmly, but it is a fact he has never told anyone before.
“I felt it when I activated the warp magic circle. “It’s not easy to warp three people so smoothly that they don’t feel any foreign objects.”
‘What… barely that much…?’
But it was accurate enough to say it was a hit.
In fact, Kwak Si-yang was devoting a considerable amount of time to creating new skills.
Warp magic was one of them.
“With just a little bit of assistance, I think we can bring the saint and the demon sword here.”
“That sounds absurd. “You think too highly of me.”
Warping two moving players, especially those with a higher level than you, is not easy even if you have S-rank skills.
“So you didn’t tell me? “I think I might need a little ‘assistance.’”
“….”
“You probably know that I have awakened a skill called ‘Pandora’s Box’.”
I know.
The reason he formed a party like this was to reliably lift the seal on Taehyun’s skill.
“Even though I couldn’t use the skill properly, I could see it when I woke up.”
“No way…”
“Yes. “It’s like building a skill.”
“…!!”
If true, it would be great.
So far, the only people who have said, ‘I can see a sense of skill’ are Cody Cruz and Ricky Harlis.
‘The president of the association said it would be a skill related to bonelessness. Does it mean that the talent of a national power level is different… No, to the extent that the tower manager intervenes in the first place…’ “
I think I can assist with warp magic. “The guild leader has nothing to lose.”
What a loss.
Rather, if what Taehyun said is true, even if he bows his head and asks for it, it is not enough.
Kwak Si-yang’s answer was decided.
“…I’ll try.”
After that, it was all smooth sailing.
Kwak Si-yang drew the reverse summoning magic circle and Taehyun placed the magic amplification stone.
It was a natural sight, as if two magicians were working together.
Yoo Ah-young, who was watching with an expression not unlike Kwak Si-yang, infused magical power into the magic circle.
Kwak Si-yang used the skill ‘Magic Condensation’.
It was a failure.
I recovered my stamina and magic with potions and tried again.
There were six failures in twenty hours.
“Let’s make sure we succeed this time.”
This was my seventh attempt to do so.
Taehyun’s magic mixed more smoothly with Kwak Si-yang’s.
A moment when the magic circle feels more comfortable than ever.
Tiring.
[Skill Summoning Ceremony (A) has been registered.]
[Skill Summoning Ceremony (A) has been activated.]
[Understanding of skill Mana Condensation (S) increases.]
A message pops up saying that a new skill has been registered.
‘That means it was already two days ago.’
The created skill was still in his status window.
Every time I looked at the status window while running, my heart pounded with excitement.
‘Kim Tae-hyun. With this child, the dream of becoming the president of the association is not impossible.’
Is this how countries that have neglected their national power supply feel?
For some reason, Kwak Si-yang felt that this mission would not end normally.
