Chapter 247 – Hero’s Gaze Preliminary Group a
“Hey, wake up.”
“Ugh.”
An unfamiliar, harsh male voice.
When Minne opened her eyes, she was terribly surprised to see a man with a stern look looking down at her, as if he would immediately lower his eyes if he met her eyes.
The man was Bliger, the leader of the Black Panzer Corps.
The whip master Minne blinked his eyes and then looked down at his chest.
It was clearly cut, but there is no black mark.
Although his leather armor was pitted… It’s a miracle that there are no wounds from that kind of attack.
Looking around her, it was not only her, but several of her personnel were also fine.
No matter how much it was, they couldn’t wake up, but those who could be called names were getting up one by one.
Chai the Elementalist, Regal the Blue Knight, Musha the Stab of Death, Mucamuka the Giant, Trulim the Strong, etc.
In the case of Chai, she was not a warrior, so she seemed to be having a harder time than the others, but she seemed to have come to her senses with the spirit’s unique healing technique.
“We…”
While thinking about what to say, Minh spat out whatever came out of his brain.
“Are you alive?”
Yes, she thought she was going to die.
She obviously had no intention of killing, but somehow I thought she was going to die.
She didn’t look down on her.
She thought she wouldn’t have gotten involved with a teenage family and all sorts of gossip about it.
That’s why she agreed to cooperate with all the talented people and get rid of it first.
He said he would kill anyone who betrayed him in the middle…
It was arrogance.
‘That’s a monster.’
It’s the first time she’s been hit since becoming a new adventurer.
‘However… How can I be fine?’
It wasn’t something she was proud of, but she thought her own body wasn’t very strong.
However, the warriors are also hit by an attack that will end it in one shot, how…?
‘And what’s this bastard up to?’
Blogger.
There are no bad rumors, but there are no good ones either. That meant being good at controlling the members’ mouths.
It was rumored that he was absurdly cool-headed when he was cool-headed, but from Minne’s point of view, this man is absolutely not a good person.
But why did they wait until they got up without attacking themselves who were weak?
The answer came quickly.
“Did you leave us alone to fight that one again?”
“Are you going to give up then?”
“No… Um.”
I didn’t want to give up.
How much honor do you get even if you only advance to the finals in this competition?
But…
“How?”
“The weak-minded have gaps to dig into.”
“Is your heart weak? That one?”
Not only Minue, but also the other names who were listening by her side, what was this bastard saying? Said.
As much as that, the memory of her blow that Dre struck was intense.
“Don’t be weak. With that proof, aren’t you guys able to move again?”
“…Why is that?”
“That man did a handstand.”
It makes sense.
Even though the preliminaries were not over, the reason why it could happen again was because the enemy looked after it.
“That means they’re looking down on us.”
Minue didn’t feel much emotion, but China or Mukamuka had a angry expression.
For those who are accustomed to being praised as geniuses or strongmen, that is humiliating.
“Wouldn’t you like to give me a shot?”
“Well… I want to pass at least the preliminary round.”
“I have to feed it. This time… I will show you my true strength.”
At Minue and Chai’s words, the blogger smiled with satisfaction.
“But why do you look unscathed?”
At Mukamuka’s words, Bliger replied with a smile.
“I somehow blocked it.”
“Did you block that blow?”
“Hoo…”
Of course, the reason he’s fine is because he ran away before he got hit, but he needs to look good to lead them.
‘You can leave it to the prideful guys to attack Eight Days. I will attack the weak point.’
I stopped thinking about winning eight days.
Students brought with them. Will knock them down
‘These guys are tired too. I’ll take a chance and knock you down… Hehe…’
Seeing such bloggers, Mein laughed inwardly.
‘Look at the gap… What are you thinking? Rather, I’ll use it against them and get rid of them.’
Except for the spirit sage China and the strong and naive Trurim, everyone had similar thoughts, but anyway, a temporary party was formed.
“Huh!”
Trigger Fiddle’s Prison again.
I know it’s useless, but it’s because I can’t believe it.
Not only he, but also his ‘fellows’ couldn’t believe it, so he sent more power than before.
The result was sudden, and it ended in being cut before it even activated.
“…!”
The strong are innumerable.
The sight of using a skill that blocks the activation in the first place, or striking the prison itself after it is activated… A little bit, but I’ve seen it.
However, the act itself was activated, but destroying it before the effect even unfolded was… Unbelievable skill.
“Kuh…”
“Your mana is barely consumed. Perhaps, it’s not just your power?”
Dre’s mouth was torn as if it were about to get caught in his ear.
“Did you think that our proud Knight Commander couldn’t win against me? That’s why you attacked with a trick from the beginning?”
He was angry, but since it was true, Krache couldn’t refute anything and was just annoyed.
“Noisy.”
Quit-quick. Dre let out a laugh that made his costume explode, and Dre let out her doubts.
“But it doesn’t seem like a human… Where did you borrow your power from the beasts?”
From Dre’s point of view, it wasn’t a provocation, it was a pure question… It was also a word that stimulated Krache’s trauma.
And also to his kin.
“You bastard!”
Dig.
He stretched out his hand and activated the spell.
However, this time, I focused on the premise of continuous activation.
Pop!
Dre didn’t cut in advance this time, surprisingly.
It just came out in less than a second.
And he cuts through the prison that was triggered in succession again.
“Kuh…”
Bondi Fiddle’s Prison is a technique that inflicts great damage on the mind.
That’s why, even if you get out, there’s still time to cast the spell on enemies who haven’t come to their senses yet.
However, it was difficult to get out in less than one second for eight days, and even if you concentrated your mind, it was difficult to activate continuously, and it was difficult to hit the prison of Fiddle, which was activated by setting coordinates by moving quickly.
I had no choice but to admit it.
The ceremony he had prepared ambitiously was broken.
Now just…
“Should I beg miserably?”
Sureureung.
The sword of the god of death is flying.
Eight days of unbelievable sword strikes, ignoring the solid warriors of the great forest, the protection of the spirits, and all kinds of weapons, seemed to split Krache’s head…
“Joy.”
Caang!
“…”
Dre’s eyes widened in surprise.
Gigg. Geek.
Binding. The state of confrontation between swords and swords.
In other words… Dre’s sword couldn’t cut Krache’s sword.
It’s not an ordinary swordsman. It was the slicing sword that allowed Dre to fight overwhelmingly until now.
“Why? Is it unexpected?”
“…”
“Arrogant guy.”
Fain!
Krachet, who pushed Dre away by emitting light without pushing away, took a very standard swordsmanship.
“It’s obviously…A very powerful skill, swordsmanship. I admit it. But.”
The eyes behind the mask shone brightly.
“It’s not something you can’t stop if you focus.”
“…Hmm.”
Dre lunged once more instead of talking.
The swords collided again, and this time they couldn’t cut it either.
I just knew what it was.
“Did you make Ryunar, who was mixing energy while swinging the sword, like a saw blade and put it between them?”
As soon as it is inserted, it rotates like a chainsaw.
The cutting blade itself was not incapacitated.
It was the sword attack that was neutralized.
To that fact… Dre was genuinely amazed.
Krasche was a little shaken about having figured out his countermeasures in an instant, but soon erased them and widened his distance and swung his sword.
Rays of light rush towards Dre from all sides.
‘When it comes to swordsmanship, I’m the top.’
As long as you block the cutting sword well, you will be able to fight against them somehow.
‘No, in a gap where I’m not paying attention… It’s going to come in an instant.’
She thought she would lose, that she might die.
Are you going to give up?
Gryze’s swordsmanship is as dazzling and fast as the family’s symbol, the light.
Attacks the opponent with light-type attacks using Ryunar or Ki, or deceives the opponent through glare and launches a special one-hit technique.
The basic goal was the same, and each captain was slightly different. Unlike other captains, who usually differed by which skill was stronger and applied irregularly, Krache built his personality by focusing everything on Ki and swordsmanship.
If it was only swordsmanship, he was confident. Practical experience is sufficient.
Blinding sparks flashed immediately after the beams of light that swooped in from all sides, and Dre closed his eyes.
“!”
With a speedy attack like light, she instantly closed the distance she had opened, aiming for his chest and stabbing her.
Originally, it was a neat attack that would have been considered a victory, but…
“…!”
Persimmon told me that this shouldn’t go in, and Krache jumped back.
At the same time, he hooked into the place where Krachet’s upper body was. The sword strike passed by.
Krasche, whose liver gets cold and breaks out in a cold sweat.
“Oh, do you avoid that?”
“…”
He didn’t answer the question that seemed amused.
He used a skill instead.
Light’s Wrath.
A buff that wraps around the body.
Mace of Light.
A sword-wielding buff.
And light resonance.
Using three types of buffs from the Gryze family that resonate with the two buffs to create a greater effect, he rotated his body to launch a horizontal slash.
“Oops.”
Dre threw his upper body back with a somewhat bewildered sound, but the scene that followed was amazing.
Dozens of stalactite pillars had been cut off.
All within a range of almost the size of a school yard
A sword was struck against it.
“Huh…”
I was surprised by the powerful cutting power rather than the range.
In the meantime, Krache directly attacks.
Blah blah! Jump!
Choose avoidance rather than acceptance.
That’s the right decision.
Ryunar’s violence, which is wielded with a sword strike, penetrates matter.
A deep scar is left on the floor where Dre was standing, and it falls off in pieces.
“Haaaaa!”
Soon, their surroundings began to become scorched.
Dre was surprised.
This man was stronger than I thought.
Rather, he felt fresh in the fact that he had his own solid and excellent swordsmanship.
Krachet was angry.
Even with such an onslaught, the man still had plenty of room.
He squeezes out the strength he used to suck, but he doesn’t do his best.
Then, Dre held the spark in his hand.
‘Is it a throw?!’
Unaware of Dre’s fighting style, Krache was wary of any throws that might have any power.
So I got a questioning look as I watched him bring the flame to his chest.
Then I realized.
Have heard
Eight days of special, physical ability enhancement skills.
Perong.
A red aura spreads through Dre’s body.
‘Your Flame’
It’s a buff from a game, but the effect is unbelievably unconventional.
Krachet felt that the increase in strength was greater with a single attack than with the buff he wrote while taking a lot of mana and Ryu Nar damage.
“Don’t be funny!”
A skill with no roots developed by a damn stranger is stronger than the unique Ryunar skill that Gryze boasts?
‘You, you…!’
Unable to hold back the words pouring out of my heart, I vomit.
“You are not Pryunar!”
Quaang!
A clash of golden light and red flames.
The light shattered and scattered, and the flames scorched Krasche’s mask, though some scattered to the floor.
“Fryunar?”
Tadak. Widely. Booung! Humming!
Instead of answering, Krachet teased his feet and swung his sword.
However, he always gets in the way and gets hurt by sword attacks that go one step ahead.
“Are you pretty handsome?”
“…!”
Mask!
Krache sensed that the mask had been shattered in half and jumped backwards.
Could it be that such a flame burned this hard mask…?
Is it not only the sword attack, but also the power of the elemental type is strong?
Contrary to Krachet’s head, why did Dre suddenly talk about Prunard? It was just a thought.
“I thought it was burned or it was ugly because it was covered without any gaps, but why are you covering it up? I think it will be popular?”
“…Noisy.”
‘Now’ I’ll be fine.
Krachet looked around her fearfully.
Fortunately, however, this light is made of the material of the cave, not the brilliant sunlight.
Whoa.
Krasche let out a sigh of relief and straightened up again.
However, she was stumped.
‘It’s a humiliation.’
Being one of the six scales of the Rise, she herself is miserably Mildani.
Krachet at least knew that Dre was looking after him.
If that sword had been swung to kill himself, it would have been scattered long ago.
He gnawed his lips at the humiliation that this situation of a tournament had saved him because it was not a real match.
Dre’s strength is definitely something special. Still, I didn’t want to admit it.
‘This guy is not Pryunar.’
A distant hero who acknowledged him and his kind.
Do you admit that this man, who occasionally burns with murderous intent, may be his successor?
But…
“Yeah … The bastard is bad.”
“What?”
“You’re strong. You’re better than me in terms of skills.”
It’s not really flattery or anything.
Originally, Dre intended to treat Krache badly.
He intended to make deep scars on her body, if not on one or two of her arms, and make her bark like a dog.
But she decided to quit.
It was because she admired his swordsmanship that she thought Krachet was a man worthy of shaving her mouth.
However, I do not intend to see it here. Stunning will do.
That’s what Dre thought.
I was just expressing my feelings in a calm and honest way.
But… He was different from Krache.
The gaze he thought of as contempt and contempt had changed to something quite favorable upon closer inspection.
Understanding that it was because of the swords meeting, Krache opened his mouth a little.
Something this.
This satisfaction.
You say you feel this level of satisfaction just because a guy like that acknowledged you?
That… It’s like acknowledging the difference in class.
That man was much stronger than he was, and he felt happy that he had acknowledged himself and affirmed his worth.
Loathing himself for feeling humiliated and satisfied, Krache raised his sword again.
I don’t think I’ll win.
But I won’t give up either.
“Great.”
Dre smiled and walked away.
Dragged on too long
It’s time to make a decision.
I’m not going to humiliate you, but how about knocking you out a bit painfully, considering how close you were to raiding in the tournament?
And just then.
“Suck!”
“Hot!”
There were two men who appeared out of nowhere.
‘Pungrang brothers!’
They are evaluated as dark horses in the preliminaries.
Did you come here to deal with the students as they are talented?
The storm brothers surrounding Dre shouted.
“Your teammates have been dealt with, and you are left alone.”
“Eight days, now it’s your turn!”
After the three formed a camp and besieged eight days, Lee Feng shouted.
And Dre laughed.
“Isn’t it because my students are stronger than I thought and I look rather easy-going?”
“…”
I was speechless for a while.
Yeah, because that was true.
‘Monsters.’
Amura is the Fryunar Academy that receives the best talent, but what about them?
The messy-haired man’s sword was meticulous, solid, and quick.
The ponytail girl’s swordsmanship was sharp and the range was terrifyingly wide.
And… The daughter of Love Yarte.
Is it really a teenage family, in terms of strength… To be honest, it was several times, no, ten times more powerful than what was in front of my eyes.
If it was only that, I don’t know how the attack would have been possible.
However, it seems like an improvised formation, but since talented people are faithful to their roles, they were gradually pushed back instead of breaking through.
‘The world is wide.’
Even though he felt bitter, Lee Poong shouted confidently.
“Well? Maybe by now they’re all out there, wanting your help?”
“They’re on par with me in terms of strength, or even stronger than me. Aren’t you cheating on your eyes and secretly coming while the students are vigilant?”
This is also correct
As a result of continuing to launch surprise attacks while hiding, they left them standing still and joined here, being wary of an attack that could come at any time.
I knew Eight Days was strong, but there was a strategy that we discussed in advance.
It was a press and hold that relied on force, even if it was called an operation… There is also Krache here.
I thought I would have been used up a little while dealing with dozens of people for eight days. No, I wanted to believe it
No more words were needed.
I glanced at Krache and he reached out his hand.
‘It’s exhausting to bet on someone other than yourself… But without this, this man can’t win.’
Whether 3-on-1 is cowardly or not, what’s the big deal?
I’m going to win
Light emanated from Krache’s hand.
Light’s Wrath.
Mace of Light.
Resonance of light.
The buff that raised Krache’s power was also taken by the Storm Brothers.
End with a quick punch.
All three charged Dre at the same time.
In just one second, the ground they stepped on and the surrounding stone pillars, stalagmites, and stalactites were shattered. After a while, everything fell apart without even needing to mention a trivial name.
No one was allowed to enter the place where stone dust, light, and sparks were scattered.
A typhoon of sword attacks.
But…
‘The monster.’
Lee Pung stuck out his tongue.
Grise’s buff was amazing.
The Storm Brothers were amazed at the amazing performance of the skill, which did not change their senses even though their movements were much faster than usual, and mixed their favorite feints and attacks.
Dre tried to get caught in it, but stopped right before it and responded.
He has a good eye and is quick to adapt.
In the first place, it doesn’t make sense to block this sword attack from all directions with that one sword.
Lee Rang gritted his teeth.
‘Yes, I admit… You are dozens of times stronger than your brother or me.’
Still can’t
No matter how many people there are without circumstances, even they cannot lose.
Let’s step back
It might be difficult to convince Krache, but with this buff, if you’re still at the student level, somehow…
Then Yeodere said.
“It’s a great combination.”
Interjection.
Pure admiration, without ridicule or service.
At that, the storm brothers stood tall.
Admiration, how long had it been since you heard it?
Yi Poong and Lee Rang can do it alone, but… It has been evaluated that there is nothing very special.
It was an obvious devaluation, but it’s hard to say anything. The two always moved together, and there were many cases where the two faced each other.
So, it was rare to receive praise.
Being insulted in battle was humiliating as a ‘warrior’…
But, I never thought a man like this would admit it.
It was absurd and sudden to others, but the praise for their inaction was special to the two who had already been insulted as warriors for nearly 20 years.
At the same time, the desire for battle that had been suppressed because of their circumstances began to rear its head.
Whoa. Whoa. As soon as they looked at them curiously as they exhaled, the two men’s eyes showed a sense of pride.
Okay. Hwang Seung-shim.
For the satisfaction that is not necessary just to win.
It is a necessary emotion when you want to win ‘satisfactorily’ even after burning everything.
‘There is no reason to save strength.’
‘Even if I can’t advance to the finals, I just need to defeat this person.’
Intuitively.
Even if you don’t win this contest, if you beat this guy… That the value of the name will jump up.
If he wanted the ‘prize’, he had to step down now.
The two men just wanted to beat this man.
Even while thinking of writing a move that I had been hiding so far.
“Seriously go.”
“Where do you stand?”
Dre just shrugged his shoulders.
Intense emotions are conveyed.
If two people are sincere, they will only respond appropriately.
Krache made up his mind that he would not spare any more numbers.
All of Ryunar and Mana…And the same kind, no… Using the power sent by the ‘kindred’, here… The largest scale ceremony…!
“Instructor!”
The three of them froze at the sound of a distant voice.
Lee Pung clicked his tongue.
‘He’s strong, but I don’t have experience, so I thought he’d be a bit more aggressive…’
They are brave guys
I put a lot of effort into making you nervous, but I didn’t know that you would soon notice the discomfort and come all the way here.
However, they were not the only ones who came here.
Wow!
Dre and the other four sensed the attack from a distance and jumped back.
A heatwave sweeps over the place where it was just before.
“Oh…”
Dre looks up, admiring the wonderful sight.
From high ground, a man dressed as a wizard looked down at him with four orbs floating around him.
The muscular man next to him pulled the bow string as far as he could and was round and round. Trulim’s body swelled with muscle, crumpling the stones around him to make them easier to throw.
Throw.
Kwak Kwa Kwak!
It is more powerful than you think.
The fight ended with the sudden appearance of three forces.
The Pungrang brothers and Krache ran away and hid somewhere.
In fact, they were astonished.
‘I must have been knocked down by Yeodere… Why? He said he was fine after being hit by that sword?’
‘No, he’s not such a lax man… Could it be that Krasche and we were suspicious, so we intentionally left a third force behind?’
‘…I hate to admit it, but that guy deserves it.’
Trembling, the three men retreated to the next task.
In the meantime, students, including Dia, approach Dre’s surroundings and examine the situation.
Enemies who throw from high ground are familiar.
All of them were those who fell to Dre.
‘How can I stand still?’
Dia was suspicious.
Dre’s attack was powerful.
What could have happened…
The answer came quickly.
‘…Did the instructor watch it?’
They got up again, but they were clearly exhausted.
Just like the storm brothers from before.
Each of them was much weaker than themselves, but those men who overpowered the three with a combination.
It was to the point where I wondered if I would have been able to endure it if I had been fine.
The reason they were able to fight was because Dre drained their power… And while fighting them, the three learned a lot about real combat.
The scene of Rius grumbling about whether he was going to catch it all by himself flashed through her mind like lightning.
‘That’s right!’
Dre…Was doing it on purpose for themselves.
‘This person made us do this troublesome thing on purpose…!’
Even against strong people like that!
How can you do such meticulous work? This man was not only strong, but also thoughtful.
Dia looked at Dre with her boundless respect.
***
Uh fuck
Why are they moving…?
I tried not to kill him, so I lost my strength… But was it too easy…?
He opened her mouth wide and looked up at her.
[Fool…]
…I don’t have anything to argue with, man.
