Maegu made fun of me for being swayed by a trait.
[I never thought you would be swayed by something like that. It was a lot of fun. Too bad.]
‘It’s because I’m tired.’
[I’m glad you came to your senses. As the original daughter, I wanted to see a little more of your impulsive appearance.]
‘It’s done. Is it possible to keep an eye on him?’
More at noblemtl com
Just in case, it would be better to keep an eye on it through every corner.
I’ve only found one, though.
If there were any other devil worshipers out there, things would get annoying.
[If you ask me, I should do it.]
‘Is this enough mana?’
I poured mana into the sword.
It protruded from the tip of the handle and landed lightly after spinning several times in the air.
The number of tails is four.
Maegu said while checking the amount of mana I passed on.
[This is enough… I’ll hold on to it for about 3 hours.]
‘I’m going to finish the solo exhibition for now. If anything happens, come back right away.’
[I get it. If possible, win and come.]
‘It’s good to have a good match, so what should I do for the 2nd round? If you think about the rest of us, it’s harder than that.’
[You seem to need to resolve your weak points in fighting one after another.]
Even at the beginning of admission, he succeeded in growing his mana, which was so small that it was unmatched by others, to a level that slightly exceeded the first year average.
It’s because the fuel economy is bad when using mana more than that.
Even if the total amount of mana increased, there was nothing that could be called an advantage.
In yesterday’s team match, we were able to reduce mana consumption by using the geographical advantage.
In the individual battle, I had to fight in a place where there were no obstacles.
I couldn’t even use a trick like that.
‘Assassination is originally a one-hit kill. You have to defeat your opponent in the shortest possible time. It seems so, though.’
[I don’t think I’ve ever seen an enemy you succeeded in killing in one blow?]
‘Go see. I’ll miss it.’
[Talking around. I get it.]
Maegoo, in a spiritual state, chased after the devil worshiper, wagging his four tails.
Maegu’s point was valid, and it was a shortcoming that I felt I needed to address.
Semester 2 is almost over.
After the festival, there will be a comprehensive evaluation that feels like a final exam.
After that, it’s winter vacation.
Unlike summer vacation, which was about a month long, winter vacation is given a long time of two and a half months.
‘I’ll have to use the winter break to go around the dungeons and get some elixirs.’
Thanks to ＜Elixir Delay＞, you can increase the amount of mana as you eat elixirs.
That advantage needed to be exploited to the fullest.
‘More mana, more elixir.’
Many incidents will come to Kang Min-hyeok in earnest from the second year.
to survive in it.
And we need to push ourselves a little harder to take away his chance.
‘It’s important to get a new elixir, but I need to use the elixir I’ve collected before entering school.’
These are elixirs that are not bad for each individual to consume, but if you add a few to them and go through the refinement process.
Even if it’s not at the same level as Hwaan and Geumjeong.
You’ll be able to get items comparable to Shaolin’s Great Hwandan and Hwasan’s Purple Crown.
‘If I use Baguaro in the process of making it, it will be possible to reduce the lengthy refinement process and time.’
Perhaps because of the mana restorer, Han So-yul has withdrawn from the individual competition and locked herself in the dormitory.
It looks like he will be busy researching mana restorers, but he should be able to give him that much time.
It was also because I erased the debt for that purpose.
Han So-yul will make it well.
“There is still time, but the previous game might be over soon. I will have to go back and wait.”
My mind, which had been hazy from fatigue, awoke.
Not because of coffee.
Although he woke up because of the existence of a devil worshiper who did not appear in the original work.
* * *
“Wowaa!!”
Leaving behind the cheers, we headed to the waiting room.
Although I won by a narrow margin, I could clearly feel that my concentration was waning due to fatigue.
There were several situations in which he would have received a valid blow if his body had not moved first.
‘It’s not a leading role, but he was quite skilled among the sophomores.’
The opponent was a wizard.
My tactics were revealed in my previous fight with Ben Gibraltar, so fighting was quite tricky.
During the break, it must have come after analyzing myself and preparing for the fight in the first round.
‘I wanted to hide the fact that Yodo can cut magic.’
Several layers of defensive magic and magic left on standby.
If he rushed at it with the intention of knocking it down with the first blow, he would have been easily defeated by the magic set up like a trap.
With my current mental strength, even 3rd circle magic would cause me to lose consciousness and collapse.
I thought I was pretty confident in my mental powers.
It was too big to be hit by Ben Gibraltar’s last attack in the first round.
If it wasn’t for that, it wouldn’t have been this bad.
Ben Gibraltar, who fainted once and got up, looked better than I did.
‘I don’t think I can win the third round no matter how hard I try.’
Three battles in a row.
It’s not a situation where you can take advantage of surprise like yesterday’s team match.
Because there were a lot of eyes to see, I couldn’t use even half of my skills.
‘If it was to fight in the dark, it would have been a little better.’
Most of all, it was the fact that I couldn’t use ＜The Jackdaw’s Poem＞.
If he could only use that, he would have been able to cut his mana consumption in half.
‘Because we fought while being conscious of mana consumption. The remaining amount of mana is slightly less than 30%.’
At least, this was the amount of mana recovered by cutting magic using the urethra.
I thought about using the mana recovery potion I received from Eleanor, but even if I recovered mana, I wouldn’t be able to win against my opponent in the 3rd round.
‘We have time until the next game. I think it would be more helpful if I sighed.’
It would be different depending on the battle, but I would still be able to sleep for about an hour.
When I wake up from a deep sleep, I lie down on the sofa using a cushion as a pillow, hoping that my condition will get better.
Magu appeared.
‘There’s no way he’d consumed all the mana he handed over. I see what happened.’
[Surveilled subject has contacted others.]
‘How many?’
[The ones gathered right now are three.]
three… .
Not many.
I might be able to sort it out myself.
However, there was no guarantee that all three devil worshipers would visit the festival.
‘Anyway, it was almost certain that the state of the 3rd round would be Yoo Hyeon-hwa.’
I won the 2nd round because I had good match luck, but it would have been difficult to advance to the 3rd round originally.
It will be enough to be satisfied here.
As soon as I announced my intention to abstain to the instructor in charge, blue windows appeared one after another.
「Quest cleared!」
“The compensation is settled.”
「Acquired the general attribute ＜Expert duelist＞.」
The Rare Attribute ＜Eye of the Mind＞ is a case where existing Attributes are combined and grown.
Strictly speaking, the general attribute ＜Hibernation＞ was not obtained, but borrowed.
It’s been a while since I’ve acquired a new general trait.
If a good general attribute came out, I could consider using the ＜General Attribute Growth Zone＞ that I hadn’t used yet.
＜Skilled duelist＞
classification
– General characteristics
Explanation
– During one-on-one combat, the evasion rate is slightly improved.
-If an intruder occurs during battle, the escape rate is slightly improved.
Did the fight with Ben Gibraltar affect you?
Among the rare traits he possesses, this ＜Dueler＞ had a superior compatibility trait.
‘Unlike mine, that one’s defense has improved in one-on-one battles, and the attack power has improved in many-to-one battles.’
Considering my fighting style, the increase in evasion and run rate wasn’t too bad.
However, compared to the general characteristics that I was worried about before, I did not feel any advantage in growth.
‘In the end, it’s either martial arts or tenacious vitality.’
I haven’t decided yet which of the two to grow.
Either way, it was certain that it would be helpful when growing up.
That’s why I was even more worried.
‘I’m going to put this aside for now, and deal with the devil worshipers first.’
Indeed, it was necessary to find out what they were looking for here.
Whether it was planning to cause an incident or just came to see the festival.
As long as you’re a devil worshiper, you’ll have to pay for that sin.
* * *
The place where Maegu had been before.
The devil worshiper he had been tailing arrived at the place where he had been in contact with others, but no one seemed to have moved.
‘It’s inconvenient at this point.’
Maegu in a spiritual state is invisible to others.
That’s why it has the advantage of being close to perfect, never being caught even if you follow it.
Maegoo’s body is one, so while the tailing is attached, Maegoo must be separated.
The downside is that the tailing is only a one-time thing, as you cannot go back once you return.
It would be quite convenient if Maegoo could communicate even when he was far away from the main body, the broken sword.
[If only the power is restored, the original woman can use her alter ego without having to move herself.]
‘Didn’t I recover more strength than when I was trapped in the treasure house?’
Although Maegoo lost a significant part in the battle in the world of images.
From my point of view, Mae-gu now has accumulated enough strength to recover the strength he lost back then.
[You are right. However, simply accumulating and finding a way to utilize it is another story.]
‘It had four tails now. Even if you recover more strength here, you can’t have five tails. Is that what you mean?’
[If you pretend, you pretend to understand. This is the limit with only the remaining half of the body.]
‘Half a broken blade if you want to use your new abilities. You’re not saying you have to find it, are you?’
[You got it right. Well, there are other ways, though. If you formally sign a contract with the original daughter… .]
