◎Details
: The strengthening art of the Barbarians, a barbarian clan that ruled half of the ancient continent. Once accepted into the body, it permanently strengthens various aspects. Because it is a special strengthening technique used by ‘warriors’ even within barbarians, it deals with an ability that is separate from the ‘ability to control the power of beasts’ unique to barbarians.
This is a high-level rune that I have acquired for the first time in a very long time.
Actually, the [Brave Eternal Wave] That I obtained earlier is also a high-level rune… Perhaps because this was a combination of water-related sword techniques and a reward for the Dungeon, it did not feel like a high-level rune.
But this time, it is a new combination of runes that we have collected so far…
High level rune in complete form.
This was the first high-level rune I had obtained in a very long time since [Elemental Master].
‘Performance is terrible.’
As a legendary rune made by combining all rare runes, the special effects and skills were enormous.
The ‘intuition’ mental effect that assists instantaneous judgment and decision-making, and the ‘undaunted will’ effect that improves physical specifications in crisis situations.
There is no room to discard any of the special effects.
These were high-level effects that could completely change the battle structure depending on how they were utilized.
Especially the derivative skill [Primal Onslaught].
This was a direct attack skill that I acquired for the first time in a while.
A skill that focuses only on ‘direct attack’ without any special effects or use of magical power.
It is a physical attack skill with enhanced destructive power.
When I looked at all of my skills, there were almost no skills similar to this, except for the ultimate skill, [Knife Rain].
‘What is Gyeokharun?’
If there is one thing that bothers you…
The three runes incorporated as sub-runes are named ‘Gyeokharun’.
I already knew the name itself.
When I acquired the [Rapid Recovery] Rune after hunting a special manticore the other day.
Detailed information at the time said that it was a name given because it was an enhancement technique obtained through artificial injection, not through normal acquisition.
And the subject who carried out the artificial injection was….
‘… ‘Rudenarch School.’
The name of an organization I had forgotten for a while suddenly came to mind.
Ruden Arc, those who seek to imitate evil.
Obviously, in the details of [Rapid Recovery], There was a sentence that said, ‘Ludenarch artificially injected the Barbarian’s strengthening techniques.’
And the two newly acquired runes this time are the downgrade runes… Likewise, it means that Ludenarch artificially injected these strengthening techniques into the Lycans of the Kalak camp.
In other words, their power also reached the Lycan clan.
‘There is a clearer motive for the attack.’
I clenched and unclenched my fists a few times and looked around.
Lycans of the Ludenarch School and Kalac Faction.
Important puzzles come together in unexpected places.
There are still many unanswered questions, but they will become clearer as the war continues.
This war and strategy belong to me…
And it was becoming more and more important to the Holder world.
* * *
The first full-scale war against the Kalak camp.
The result was victory, a major victory at that.
There was not a single casualty in the human troops , And most of the frontline Lycans and Jurgens also survived.
In particular, the entire enemy army was annihilated before the main force of the friendly forces even arrived.
All the werewolves in the Barathen camp were enthusiastic about the incredible achievement.
Although it was a sudden declaration of war and the opposing scouting unit was separated from the main force, it was not that important to those who were intoxicated with victory.
Anyway, the important thing was victory.
“Wow, this is really amazing. Is he really human? I felt it during the last battle, but it seems to be beyond the scope of an ordinary person. Killing 15 Jurgen at once – wow….”
And among those who are so intoxicated with victory…
There was also a lycan who spoke with an especially excited expression.
It was Hatten, a Lycan who encountered the From the beginning of the dungeon and was rescued from them.
Hatten continued to tease his mouth as usual.
The problem is that Hatten is not talking to himself.
He always speaks with someone in the background.
Unfortunately, the victim this time was Moon Ga-eun.
“What? Please go over there and play with your friends…. “I feel like my ears are bleeding.”
Moon Ga-eun said with a bored expression.
Currently, the Allied Forces stopped their advance and took a moment to have dinner.
On one side, Lycans were already gathered together and enjoying the festival, but this Hatten guy couldn’t figure out why he was sticking to him.
But we became close friends and talked a lot…
Haten is excessive.
There was a lot of talk, but it was too much.
“hahahaha. Other lycans don’t talk about humans. The person who made the greatest contribution in this battle is undoubtedly Do Jae-hyun, the leader of the humans, but everyone is only praising Schilten and the 8th Division’s performance. They don’t want to admit that noble warriors have been overtaken by humans. Even though they have even received a token of trust.”
But Hatten’s answer continued normally.
There, Moon Ga-eun opened her eyes wide.
I spoke lightly while smiling, but it was because there was a hidden bone in my words.
“Hatten. “Are you not on good terms with other lycans?”
“Huh?! Is that possible? “I’m just telling the truth.”
Haten quickly waves his hand asking someone to count him.
Moon Ga-eun also looked around and nodded her head.
In fact, there was nothing wrong with what Hatten said.
From Noble mtl dot com
The Lycans of the Barathen camp recognized humans who saved their compatriots and proved their power as colleagues, but did not treat them beyond that.
In any case, the subject of war is Barathen.
Warriors active in war are also called Barathens.
Such a mindset was secretly embedded in Lycans.
‘Chi- I received positive feedback when I helped.’
Of course, Moon Ga-eun did not look kind on such behavior.
Until now, the person who is doing the most in the Barathen camp is her boyfriend, Do Jae-hyeon, no matter what anyone says.
It is not just his performance in this battle.
He first proposed an all-out war to Enrichten.
Persuading awakened warriors to form the optimal unit.
Customized armor was provided to the Lycans to minimize damage. (Of course, the price of the armor was too high.)
It was Do Jae-hyeon and That were driving the current war momentum positively.
But the only people who truly understand this are Jayten, Hatten, and the tribal leader, Enrichten.
Other Lycans, like Hatten said, knowingly or unknowingly avoided mentioning the activities of humans.
“Well, if the war continues, things may change. There is another thing called camaraderie. hahahaha.”
“Hmm, that’s right.”
“Anyway, I think Do Jae-hyeon is really great. I still can’t forget the scenes I saw earlier. Hey, if it weren’t for the war, I would have made you my husband right away. Ha ha ha.”
Tap-.
Suddenly, Moon Ga-eun’s steps stopped.
For the first time in a while, I was listening to a topic I was interested in, and for a moment I felt like I was hearing something I shouldn’t have heard.
She turned her head and looked at Hatten.
“What did you just say?”
“Yes? “What?”
“What I just said.”
Hatten tilted her head and said.
“You won’t forget the scenes you saw earlier?”
“No, after that.”
“… Ha ha ha?”
“Mr. Lee, in front of you!”
“Ah~ Are you saying you want me to be your husband? It’s literally true! Lycan warriors also see force when they look at their mates. Even though Do Jae-hyeon is human, he would be the best groom no matter what race he is. Ha ha ha.”
Haten spits out noises in rapid fire again.
Moon Ga-eun asked, touching her head.
“Hate, were you a woman?”
“To be exact, it is a female.”
“Mr. Lee- Either that or that! No, what kind of female lycan speaks like this?”
“It seems like that’s because I grew up rough among men. hahahaha.”
In fact, even if they were werewolves, they all had wolf-shaped faces and only covered important parts with cloth, so it was difficult to determine their gender.
But no matter what…
Isn’t that way of talking a woman?
Moon Ga-eun quickly shook her head and took her steps again.
It was something I really didn’t want to know.
“Uh, where are you going?”
“Mr. Lee, don’t follow me! “You are also prohibited from approaching Jaehyun.”
“That was a joke earlier! Don’t go! I feel a familiar energy from Moon Ga-eun… !!”
“Oh, I don’t know. “Play with your friend Do Seung-min Holder!”
Moon Ga-eun left her position, even using the Bobeop Ryu rune.
Anyway, this damn boyfriend is the problem.
Now you’re trying to unintentionally seduce a werewolf….
I guess I’ll have to gather my friends and have a meeting to discuss measures.
