Chapter 7

[The ordeal begins.]

He did not let go of the tension and was vigilant about his surroundings.

“……”

It was quiet at first, but I know that this stillness is the eve of the storm. He continued to look around without hesitation.

wow.

A sound was heard.

I quickly turned around and found a single flash of green light on a tile a few hundred meters from here.

Soon, a blue arrow will come out of that tile! and was fired

‘That’s Mana Arrow!’

I hurriedly created a shield on the front.

Whoops!

Mana arrows that hit the shield were bounced off and scattered in the air. My shield also scatters and disappears after blocking an attack.

Whoops, whoops.

This time, there was a sound once from the front and the back.

‘Aha, I have a feeling what kind of ordeal it is.’

I put a shield on the front to block the attack, and the other one diddge it by bending his back directly.

A cold sweat broke out as the arrows of mana barely passed her collar.

It’s full of thrills. this.

Whoop, whoop, whoop.

This time, three mana arrows.

The difficulty jumps right up to the drain.

There’s only one shield, but how are you going to stop them all?

Without a shield, I rolled over and avoided it.

Mana arrows piercing the floor. But avoidance was not enough.

The recoil of rolling the floor too quickly caused a strong pain in the shoulder.

And before you even get up.

Whoops, whoops.

Mana arrows flew in front and behind me with my posture collapsed.

‘After all, there is a limit to being consistent with a large amount of avoidance.’

The space of the cube is so coordinated that if you roll the floor towards somewhere, you are immediately trapped in the corner.

This makes it difficult to defend against the next attack.

‘Concentrate, let’s focus.’

I opened my eyes and spread my arms out.

I don’t know if it will work or not, but I haven’t had time to decide whether it will or not.

Destroy both spells at once.

The composition of the magic circle that I remembered divided into three stages in my head came to mind in turn.

First, the field.

Second, runes.

Third, the formula.

Then, I laid the base on both palms at the same time and calmly drew the magic circle.

without thinking hard.

Like holding a pen in both hands and drawing at the same time.

Fortunately, the training paid off.

Mana helped me from the moment I drew the runes and quickly ran towards completion.

I did not reject the flow, I just surrendered myself to it.

The most important thing is not the sense that I draw the magic circle, but to induce mana to draw the magic circle.

Sreung, Sreung.

The magic circle is complete. Just before the arrow pierced my body, I cast the magic circle of both palms outstretched left and right at the same time.

‘shield!’

Whoops! Tung!

And when I opened my eyes, the sights I saw were Manaerows being blocked by my shield and thrown out.

‘Success!’

[You have acquired the multicast talent.]

“…!”

Mouth was wide open.

The trait that I had barely developed after trying to die for the past two years was unlocked with just one realization.

After a brief moment of excitement, green lights flickered in three directions once again. I checked the direction and multicast the shield magic circle with both arms.

Two guarded by shields. And then, the one flying over his head tilts his head to avoid it.

After successfully overcoming the crisis, he quickly jumped from the corner of the cube to the wide center. It’s dangerous if you’re on the edge.

‘Yes, let’s see who wins.’

I too have now succumbed

Whoops, whoops. Whoops, whoops. Whoops, whoops.

This time, the sound was heard sequentially.

It’s not a simultaneous fire, but attacks coming from left and right are also threatening enough.

After checking the approximate direction, I made two shields with multiple casts on the front and back, and quickly prepared the next spell.

This time, it’s not a shield, it’s a ‘gauntlet’.

When this gauntlet magic circle was completed up to 70%, Mana Arrow flew in.

Whoops! Tung!

The two shields installed earlier blocked one by one, and the next arrow lifted the leg to avoid it.

At the same time as he succeeded in evading, he entered the recently completed gauntlet magic circle.

Souk.

The magic circle has been transformed into a glove that covers my right hand.

At that moment, arrows were flying from the left and right, aiming at the chest and head.

I quickly ran to the right and struck an arrow with my hand wrapped around the gauntlet.

“Wow!”

Then he turned around and stretched out his arms towards the last arrow. As I recently discovered, the gauntlet has a new way to use it.

‘Activate!’

Whoops!

When the gauntlet was placed in the air and ‘manually activated’, the magical energy gathered in the fist exploded, creating a shock wave that blew the arrow away.

[Gauntlet magic circle’s proficiency has reached 80%.][Magic power has increased by 1.][Instant speed has risen by 1.]

“Oh oh……”

An exhilarating shiver ran down my spine.

I wasn’t fighting a monster, but the pleasure of creating the situation as I intended was great.

The adrenaline rushed like crazy, and he sang that the cells of his body were alive.

Whoops, whoops. Whoops, whoops. Whoops, whoops.

My fully immersed eyes moved like crazy.

‘Two feet left and right. two feet front and back. Go back to the left and right again and take two feet.’

Combination of simultaneous shooting and time lag shooting.

As the difficulty level went on, it was getting worse and worse, but it didn’t matter.

come anything

First, stretch your arms to the left and right to make a shield.

Whoops! Tung!

The sound of the arrow hitting the shield was heard and the body flew away.

I thought it was a quick evasion, but one shot was avoided and the other was stuck in my shoulder.

“… 👑!”

hit for the first time Of course the pain was real.

The pain was enough to make my head turn white for a moment, but I desperately maintained my concentration.

And without looking at the direction the arrow was flying, he stretched out his arm.

‘shield!’

In an instant, an image of the shield’s process flashing like light was drawn.

And.

Whoops! Tung!

Almost immediately upon creation, an arrow flew and landed.

[You have acquired the accelerated cast attribute.][Special stat – ‘will’ has been opened.][Will has increased by 1.][Magic power has increased by 1.]

“Huh, ha ha ha ha!”

The bones of his body screamed as he rolled around on the floor, and blood gushed out from the part where the arrow was pierced, but it was painful.

Oddly enough, I couldn’t stop laughing because I was so happy.

It feels good enough to go crazy.

Whoops, whoops. Whoops, whoops. Whoops, whoops. Whoops, whoops.

Whoops, whoops.

Green lights flashed like crazy from all directions.

Of course, I had no intention of leaving. When I stretched out my arm, the shield struck at a much faster rate than before.

[The skill of the shield magic circle has reached 100%.]

The ‘Sage’s Eye’ perfectly calculated the trajectory of the flying magic projectile. He tilted his head to the side and bizarrely bent his arms and legs like a feat to avoid it.



[Instant speed has risen by 1.]

In the midst of this, one arrow that followed could not be avoided and got stuck in my back, but I clenched my teeth and made two gauntlets and put both hands in.

[The skill of the Gauntlet Magic Circle has reached 90%.]

Arrows flying to the side were struck with the gauntlet of his left hand, while the other was blocked by his right arm.

Rolling backwards, he activated the gauntlet of his left hand to blow an arrow into an explosion, then stood up and blocked by multiple-casting shields from side to side.

‘Finally, one front and back!’

It was too late to hit the shield.

I jumped up in a moment and stretched out my last gauntlet-equipped right hand.

‘Activate!’

Tuquaang!

The firepower of the gauntlet pushed my body away like a booster, and the arrows passed through my body in a matter of seconds.

I had to hit the blue curtain to avoid being caught off guard, but the pain of the shock didn’t matter.

I jumped up and roared as I felt the shiver rushing through my body.

[Your level of mana handling has changed a level.][The Child of Mana talent has reached LV2.][Multicast Talent has reached LV2.][Accelerated casting attribute has reached LV2.][Magic power has increased by 5.][Focus increased by 1.][Will has increased by 1.]

Wow!

My stomach churned again.

The agony of the past flashed through my mind for a moment. I received player-only training for a few months to try to increase my strength stats, but I was wondering if it would go up by 1 or so.

For archery, which is good for ‘witness’.

Even memorizing a foreign word that is good for ‘concentration’.

there’s nothing I haven’t done

However, the efficiency was too low.

The limitations of the Earth’s training method were clear. On the other hand, other motives with unique abilities in the combat world grew rapidly by circling dungeons and defeating monsters.

It would be a lie if I said no.

It got stuck in the wall and turned around.

But now.

It is me who is growing faster than anyone else.

keying

“…!”

Suddenly the sound changed.

When I turned my head, the first red light I had ever seen was flashing on the tile on the side.

‘What is red?’

It is different from the usual pattern. I was worried for nothing, so I put the shield in front of me in advance.

Red had a longer cast time than green. The mana arrows generated after the red light were flying on their fourth foot, but the red was still blinking and there was no sign of anything.

‘What the hell?’

While my nerves are focused on the mana arrows flying backwards for a moment.

Kwareung!

A bright red lightning bolt shot from the wall.

And it pierced the shield that had been blocking it in advance and hit my body directly.

“Cuckoo!”

I knelt down on the spot. The pain was also pain, but the body was paralyzed, and the words were not heard.

And the mana arrows didn’t wait for me to recover.

Whoops!

An arrow was lodged in his left back.

Whoops! Whoops!

I was hit to my thighs and back one after another.

“Shut up…I”

pain! It really hurts like crazy!

Blood was constantly dripping from the wound, and he became confused.

I was a little scared. It was an ordeal, and I thought that I could really die like this.

He bit his lip until he bled, and as he pressed his body, one arm barely moved.

However, the arrow that flew straight through the shoulder. His arms suddenly lost strength and he was limping.

“Shit!”

My gaze turned to the exit magic circle. He squeezed out the strength he had been drinking and crawled.

His left leg was also drooping with mana arrows embedded in it one after another. He used his right leg and shoulder to move forward like an insect crawling.

“…heh heh heh heh heh heh!”(Read more @ wuxiax.com)

Eventually, I felt less pain. His vision grew blurry, and the world seemed as blurry as black and white.

never die

I can’t die even if I’m sad like this.

I squeezed even the slightest bit of mental power and crawled. In the meantime, the arrow continued to be stabbed in the back.

I don’t know how much it was embedded, but when viewed from above, it must have looked as terrible as a hedgehog.

“Great!”

I stretched out my trembling left arm toward the exit magic circle.

Aww!

Mana Arrow flew and pierced my elbow, but at the last moment her finger managed to cross the edge of her circle.

[I gave up on attacking the ordeal. Move out.]

At the end of that message, my consciousness was cut off.

“…heh!”

He let out a heavy breath and got up.

I was lying in front of the portal on the second floor.

Are you alive?

When I hurriedly touched the body, all the wounds pierced by the arrow had healed.

I thought for a moment that it was just a fantasy, but my shirt and pants were stained red with blood, and there were holes in them.

Above all else, the vitality of the body. And an overwhelming amount of mana that I had never felt before was flowing through my body.

‘… … shield.’

Let’s raise the magic circle, almost unconsciously calculated formulas and runes to form a shield magic circle.

It was the influence of 100% mastery of the shield magic circle.

Excited, I quickly opened the status window.

Name: Kim Yoo-shin

Special stats: [Concentration 5] [Intellect 3] [Patience 2] New![Will 2]

“…Ha, haha! You’re crazy, this!”

The elements that had grown in the ordeal were applied as they were.

In that short time, his stats also skyrocketed, and above all, he acquired two new traits.

Considering that even the average hunters have about 3 or 4 individual characteristics, this was a really absurd achievement.

I giggled and laughed like a madman and fell helplessly on the stairs.

“Whoa.”

I had a lot of thoughts.

Did you say that it is the tradition of Matoapism to overcome the ordeal set by the ancestors to unlock the seal of the Matoap?

It was painful enough to die, but it doesn’t seem like a device made just to kill people.

At least as far as the growth rate was certain. There may have been some kind of growth-boosting magic on the whole of the ordeal.

I felt like I wanted to try again right away.

But I was too tired and I needed time to think about that strange red lightning bolt.

Let’s rest today. Instead, the second floor will be opened tomorrow.

So decided, I lay flat on my back.

‘Let’s see who wins!’

The pleasure of growing outweighed the pain and fear of death.

I was genuinely enjoying this ordeal.
