Chapter 14: Another Whale in the Fight (2)

14. Another Whale in the Fight (2)

I interfered with the collapsed ruins, transforming its form.

Kugugung!

The most important thing is efficiency.

I learnt that from my last experience.

In the battle with the bandits, I realised how dangerous it is to run out of magic.

If not for the help of those players.

I would have drowned in the netherworld by now.

Thats why I stayed up all night thinking.

How to fight so that I can fight with maximum efficiency.

For starters, my offensive magic, including Ignite, has become relatively ineffective.

In the last rift, I used Ignite to drain my energy at a rapid rate.

Ill have to refrain from using it as much as possible.

In that sense, which magic has the highest mana efficiency?

If anyone asked me, the sight in front of me would be my answer.

Koo-koo-koo-koo!

Magic manifested from a collapsed ruin.

In the aftermath of that magic, the ruins changed shape.

A huge barrier rose up.

It stood between me and the charging soldier.

This is neither offensive nor defensive magic, but magic inspired by the [Alchemy Skill].

Thats right.

Alchemy was the most efficient of the magic I used.

The problem is that its use is extremely limited.

Of course, I could change its form to be more complex.

Add lethality to it, make it grow thorns on walls,

or make it a weapon from the ground up.

Like maximising the heat retention of a teacup.

Adding complex shapes like hooks for lethality took quite a bit of magic.

Ive seen it with arrowheads, and the larger they are, the more energy it takes to add complex shapes to them.

Its called having a bigger navel than a belly.

Besides, it wasnt necessary.

This is enough.

He wasnt bluffing this time.

Perhaps it was the level.

A massive wall rose up, and there was no hesitation.

The soldier quickly rounded it and approached me.

But I am confident.

I would still be faster.

Kurrrr-!

?

There wasnt much magic or effort involved here.

Like turning a falling teacup back into a stone.

I turned the stone wall back into a ruin once more.

Quack, quack, quack!

This isnt some magical destructive force.

Impact from height.

Ive forgotten the formula for bunga bunga.

Anyway, its a physical law that cant be defied.

Koo-koo-koo-koo-koo.

The destructive power of the stone wall was as great as its height.

I had an inkling of its potential through the teacup.

Honestly, its more than I imagined.

I checked the magic power consumption.

With this much , Ill be able to use it for a long time to come, wont I?

It took me a while to build the stone wall, but it took no time at all to move it back down. I was up all night thinking about it.

Reversal Magic.

It was so efficient that it wouldnt be awkward to give it a fancy name.

In the rising dust.

I could see red eyes.

Of course, I didnt expect to be able to defeat it with just Reversal Magic.

There was a level difference.

But even with that level gap, it must have suffered damage that couldnt be ignored.

As you can see.

[A fracture occurs on Count Ascuras soldier].

I looked at the soldier lying in the rubble.

All that was exposed was his face.

It still bared its sharp fangs at me.

Lets finish him off.

I drew my silver dagger.

In the past, I wouldnt have wielded it properly, worried about its durability.

Now, it was fine.

Flick.

I threw the silver dagger into the air.

Searching, interfering, manifesting.

In an instant, the silver dagger changed shape.

Like a long, sharp awl.

Boom

The silver awl pierced through the soldier.

It cut off his breath.

I used reversal magic to restore its form.

The damaged silver awl had returned as a fine silver dagger.

I checked its durability.

Fortunately, I was safe.

[You have leveled up].

[You have levelled up].

Experience worthy of level 300.

Total level gain is 5 levels.

I am now level 91.

At first glance, it looks like a win, right?

Id seemingly overpowered the soldier without lifting a finger.

But when I say that, I feel bad for myself.

Just as I was about to check the chat.

A frightening-looking soldier leapt out from the other side of the stone wall.

Park Huigang was stunned.

Demons!

Park Huigang was level 220.

As a class that was forced to explore relatively dangerous areas, he had seen many monsters higher than his level.

However, he couldnt get used to seeing Demons.

Its a good thing were at a distance.

Otherwise, hed definitely be out of it.

Park Huigang breathed a sigh of relief.

Suddenly, his thoughts turned to the man.

Me, me?!

The man was unarmed.

No weapons, no armour.

Even his posture was defenceless.

Surely he must have seen the soldier approaching.

Somehow, his stiff posture didnt waver.

Wee, that looks dangerous.

But it wasnt dishevelled.

It was as if it had been waiting for an approach.

Koo-koo-koo-koo!

?!

The stone wall had shattered and collapsed.

To put it mildly, it looked like a meteorite had fallen.

The ground rumbled from the impact, and dust covered the area.

Ouch. Wait!

Park hastily wiped the camera lens.

The back of the mans head appeared on the screen.

-Wow;; What was that? Did you mean to hit me?

-Wow, thats a great use of your skills.

-What the hell class is that?

-Lol, I dont know about anything else, but confidence is a bitch.

-I didnt come here in a coat for nothing.

Stay strong.

The stone wall will collapse.

That a soldier would be crushed by the rubble.

It was as if he had expected it all.

The surprises didnt end there.

!

Suddenly, something leapt over the mans head.

It was only a moment, but the explorers eyes lit up.

Park said.

I think its a sword?

No, it was definitely a sword.

Then, in an instant, it changed shape in midair.

The sword turned into a sharp awl and executed the soldier on the ground.

Then it reverted back to its sword form.

Hey, what kind of equipment is that? You guys?

Including Park Hui-kang.

Everyone watching was stunned.

-No, its a living sword, what is it???

-Thats at least unique from what I can see.

-Only unique? If its really a living sword, its called an ego sword. Its not unique enough. It must just change shape.

-But isnt it great that it only changes shape?? Have you guys ever seen it?? First of all, I havent.

-Neither do I.

It was a level 300 demonic monster.

In some cases, even ranked players are overwhelmed by the monsters.

And I was wearing a long coat and shoes, not to mention proper armour.

-Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!

-You too? Me too!

-Im more curious about who that is than I was about the Korean War.

-Lol

The mysterious man appeared out of nowhere.

It was only a matter of time before rumours spread.

The number of people interested in him was showing.

Another angle

I checked the item I obtained from Count Ascuras soldier.

Purple, the first purple Ive ever touched as a player.

So it was a rare item.

[Blood Curse Necklace]

[Rating: Rare]

[Limit: Lv.300]

[Effect: Sealed]

[Description: This necklace is cursed by demons and vampires, and its effects are sealed. It must be purified before it can have its full effect.]

Aka, the Devils Item.

Thats what the players called it.

It was added with the addition of the Demon race in the new update.

The concept of these items is that their effects are sealed with a demonic curse.

Depending on the effect, its either good or bad.

In short, theyre draw items.

Draw.

If youve ever played a game, you know the drill.

Its an evil system.

The devils item is a Chinese phrase, isnt it?

But I knew.

Im sorry, but youre using it incorrectly.

Its only for demon hunters.

So for now, Im the only one who knows how to use it.
