107. Reinforcement is a gamble (4)
A weapon that shines brightly.
The red weapon, which I liked, has undergone a tremendous change since the round of 12.
Aside from the fact that her appearance has changed even more luxuriously, the purple magic that she envied when she saw Ariando was lingering around her weapon in golden color.
‘Oh, that’s cool. You are so pretty. Is this really mine?’
The difference from Ariando’s 11th round weapon isn’t just the color change.
While Ariando’s weapon was surrounded by purple magical energy faintly like fog, his own weapon was spinning at high speed with a whirlwind of golden aura.
Seeing it in person makes no sense.
I habitually strapped this fantastic weapon to my back and headed to the training ground.
While listening to the class, I thought my mouth was itching and going crazy.
“What is his weapon?”
“That’s crazy. Mr. Wah, does that mana flow like that?”
“I’m envious of how much money I poured in. Where did you get it from?”
No one reacts as sensitively to equipment changes as a noble.
As I went with the lotus flower, I heard a buzz among the students.
The corners of my lips keep twitching.
“You…what is that? No way?”
Ariando, in particular, reacted violently when he saw my weapon.
‘Pu-hik!’
I spoke as if it was nothing special, barely restraining my twitching corners of my mouth.
“Uh~ Arianne too. It happened that way.”
“how? How did you do it? Is this really 12 river? It’s not the 11th, it’s the 12th, right? It’s not because the weapon is different.”
Ariando’s shocked expression makes my heart tickle.
“Yeah, I guess I got lucky.”
If you show off too much bragging, you should act modestly because your friend, who is spending a lot of money and is still writing the 11th class, may be frustrated.
I had to be careful not to raise my voice.
It seemed that he had already failed to control the corners of his mouth.
“… Can I ask how long it took you to put it on?”
“Three hours? four hours? No, he doesn’t make it past the quarterfinals. It just keeps repeating 456, 654 like this. So I was very angry, but at some point it became the quarterfinals, and then it went all the way to the round of 12.”
“That, is it? I mean the 12th round, kid.”
Ariando stutters.
He must have been completely absorbed in the story he was telling.
“There was a bit of a crisis. The uncle asked me to stop at the moment we reached the round of 11.”
“I did?”
“I said I would take on the challenge. I must be in the round of 12 or not! I just did.”
“… … .”
“And I did. And then it’s hot! Is it the round of 12?”
“So, you made the round of 12 in 3-4 hours, right? Do you think it didn’t cost much money?”
“uh? Ehh… Well, I guess that wasn’t enough.”
Sensing Ariando’s strange atmosphere, I belatedly put on an awkward smile and lowered the corner of my mouth.
“The appearance of this seems to have changed a bit, right? Originally, your bow wasn’t this flashy. The light shines here like a greased pole?”
“Yes… . After reaching the round of 12, his appearance changed. didn’t you?”
11th to 12th.
only one difference
I don’t think it will make that big of a difference… .
“Isn’t it? Didn’t I have something like that? It’s the 11th river, so why not? Are you ignoring episode 11? 11 Is the intensity too high?”
…Should I stop?
Ariando’s face was so scary.
Ariando is cute even when he is expressionless because he has a small body and a very cute face.
But right now, Ariando seemed to be better for my personality than being cute.
‘I haven’t been able to brag yet.’
The changed appearance and golden aura are one of the things I want to show off, but in fact, I haven’t been able to tell you what to really brag about.
should I can i do it
He’s going to do the round of 12 later, isn’t that information you need to know anyway?
I finally couldn’t resist the urge and opened my mouth.
“And by doing the round of 12, my locked abilities were unlocked.”
“Locked ability? What is it?”
Ariando’s eyes shook even more violently.
“I guess each piece of equipment had a locked ability. It’s probably in your weapon too.”
“My weapon has a locked ability? You mean you can wake it up by level 12? Not the 11th, only the 12th?”
“Shall I show you?”
“Yes, show me!”
At Ariando’s request to do it quickly, I stood in front of the scarecrow holding ＜Hwaryongyeonhwa＞ that fits snugly in my hand.
The scarecrow for training was set for avoidance, and the training phase was set to S.
When he pulls the string without arrows, a golden magic arrow appears in his hand.
‘Ah, it’s soft.’
From noble mtl dot com
I wonder if this is what equipment washing is all about.
It’s just pulling the arrow, but I feel the exhilarating pleasure.
The evasive scarecrow moves around me at breakneck speed.
The scarecrow in the training stage S was so fast that it was impossible to track it with the naked eye.
I can’t chase with my eyes, but I pull an arrow and hit it?
‘In the past, I would have been sweating profusely.’
At the spot where the scarecrow had disappeared, he aimed his string and let go of his arrow.
Suaaagh!
The golden arrow, shot quickly, is surprisingly U-shaped and flies towards the target.
As if trying to avoid the flying arrows, the scarecrow moved quickly, but no matter how fast it moved, it couldn’t be faster than my arrow.
‘My arrows are faster!’
Even if the scarecrow moves and avoids it in some way, how will it avoid the arrow that bends in an S shape?
The golden magic arrow hit the scarecrow’s heart for evasion.
Fu-wook, quad-deuk!
To prove it wasn’t a coincidence, I pointed the protest at the other evasive scarecrows.
Again, it was moving so fast that it was hard to follow with the eyes.
It was only natural that he was a scarecrow for evasion, with all stats focused on evasion, not attack.
‘I heard that among the monsters you will meet after enlisting, there are monsters that move at that speed and even attack.’
If you can’t even deal with a scarecrow for training, how will you fight on the battlefield in the future?
If you can do this lightly, you will be able to protect the dignity of being from Class A.
Paang -!
Feeling the thrill of the hand, the arrow is shot towards the scarecrow.
No matter how much the retrieval scarecrow ran away, it had no choice but to be pierced by an arrow.
This is the result determined when I let go of the arrows.
Kwadeuk!
An arrow pierced the scarecrow’s neck, shattering it with force.
“and!”
“How did you get that right?”
“I can’t even see well.”
“The arrow follows the scarecrow. Is that an ability?”
“I envy the dog. Doesn’t that mean that an attack will hit unconditionally with that ability?”
“Are you buying too much?”
Before I knew it, the kids who were training around me also started watching my training.
Maybe it’s because it’s training stage S, so it’ll be fun to watch.
A homing arrow that tracks and attacks a target when it is designated.
That is the hidden ability of the weapon called ＜Hwaryongyeonhwa＞.
‘Kids think it’s my ability.’
The fact that this is not my ability is a fraud.
If you use this homing arrow as an ability, you will inevitably use magic power.
However, since this is an ability that depends on the weapon itself, it does not require magic power when used.
‘That’s crazy.’
Even after that, I hit 3 more dodge scarecrows before I stopped training.
clap clap clap!!!
The students who were watching around them clapped their hands.
It was an applause that made me feel good, so I went to Ariando, unable to hide my heart.
Ariando’s eyes had been staring at me so intensely that it stung from earlier.
“Your arrow was just bent, wasn’t it your ability?”
“huh. This is the ability Yeonhwa has. It’s not that my accuracy is bad, but it’s very convenient because I can pay more attention to other things with this.”
Let’s say you designate a target roughly and shoot an arrow in the time you care about the hit.
If you just shoot, you will definitely hit, so you can pay attention to other parts.
For example, looking at the battle situation around you, or preparing for an enemy attack.
“And you see it stuck in the scarecrow? There is such a thing as penetrating power, so it got stuck very well.”
According to the general store owner, it was possible to do this because of the mysterious ability called penetration, but I couldn’t help but feel like I was going crazy because of how lovely it was.
“I’m dying of regret having to use this on a scarecrow. I want to try it in practice soon.”
“I will do it too. Round 12.”
“Yeah, I did too, but there’s no reason you can’t. You can do it.”
Arianne can do it too.
I did it, but there’s no way he couldn’t do it?
Common sense, that made no sense.
“Can I hear what the two of you are talking about?”
“uh? Vine!”
“hi.”
Come to think of it, he also said he bought weapons from you, right?
So, will he be strengthened too?
‘flaw.’
Isn’t that strange?
I wasn’t one to brag to others like this.
Rather, there were many times when I saw him boasting that he had bought good equipment and wondered why he was so immature.
However, when I actually got a weapon I wanted to show off, I was acting no different from those kids.
My heart tickled, my mouth twitched, and my tongue kept wriggling.
‘I can’t stand it!!!’
Oh, how can I put up with this?
“You want to hear about reinforcements?”
“enforce? What is it?”
Looking at Baine’s innocent eyes, his conscience was pricked, but his mouth was already talking about strengthening.
Come to think of it, since I am acquainted with Mr. Frando, did I not buy the equipment?
‘I have to tell Fran too. The more you know about this, the better, right?’
He smiled heartily, remembering that the kids would drool looking at his Round of 12 weapon.
It was a time of unbearable pride.
⁂ ⁂ ⁂
“What are you going to do when they come here?”
Shine and Ariando, as well as Vine and Franc.
I didn’t know that the kids would come in droves in a situation where the city lockdown had not gone away yet.
Personally, I think the academy should have kept curbing students.
“Please strengthen it!!!!!!!!!!”
“I came here because I wanted to do something called Ganghwa.”
“I’m not. I just asked you to follow me…”
Ariando, Vine, and Franc.
‘Why are Arianne’s eyes like that?’
Ariand also has a glimpse of madness somewhere.
On the other hand, Baine’s expression was purely full of curiosity, and Fran was confused as to whether it was true that he had simply followed his friend.
By the way, Fran, isn’t he the number one priority that needs to be strengthened?
But Fran didn’t seem interested at all, and Ariando was the most enthusiastic.
“Are you going to do it again?”
“Neng!! Round of 12!!!!!! Round of 12 for sure!!!!”
“He said he would use 11 for the time being. The performance of 11 isn’t bad.”
I couldn’t have felt that it was not enough to write the 11th river.
In the first place, isn’t the unique equipment much better than other equipment?
It was absurd to say that they were not satisfied with Ganghwa, even though they made it to the round of 11.
The reason why he cries for the 12th River again is probably…
“Did you hit Ariando?”
“B…Nick? Beatty? What’s that?”
What you did to Ariando, man.
‘is not it?’
Shine’s eyes are clearer than I thought.
Well, even if Shine didn’t hit the beat, Ariane, who failed in the round of 12, would have been a big stimulus in itself if the round of 12 weapon came and went in front of her eyes.
It’s strange that the eyes don’t roll over.
‘The money invested by Ariando is much larger.’
