Episode 50
saint (3)
Monkey mask?
It was also an exaggeratedly humorous mask. It would probably be very popular if worn at a Halloween party. But Jeong-do couldn’t smile at all even when he saw that mask. Because the aura the man gave off was so ominous.
“You found me? For what? “No, more than that, what is your identity?”
To that extent, it is a natural question. However, the masked man laughed as if he thought the question was funny.
“Tsk tsk. Stagnation. Would you have put on a mask if you had expected me to obediently tell you that? “I’m just someone who feels a little sorry for you.”
“I’m sorry. “I don’t think I’ve lived a life of pretending to lose to anyone.”
To tell the truth, there was only one place.
The group that caused the break in Gangnam and attacked Seo Sang-hee in Dobong Mountain. Didn’t they make a big fuss about every incident that happened? They had every reason to feel bad about themselves.
‘Karma!’
Jeongdo used observation while becoming more wary of the man in front of him.
however.
<A myth-level artifact has been detected. Observation attempts to see through!>
<Partially successful! Information is displayed limitedly due to interference from artifacts.>
Name: Go??
level : ??
Mana reserves: ??
Strength: ?? health : ?? Reflexes: ?? Mana Responsiveness: 108
Talent: <Brainwashing-lv.2>, <Spell-lv.2>, <Magic-lv.2>, <??-lv.2> <??-lv.1>… and 6 others.
Possessed Skill: <Unknown due to the protection of the artifact.>
<Your status has been greatly strengthened due to the currently banned spell.>
‘what?!’
The extent was shocking. This is an <observation> that even penetrated the information defenses of Ellie MacDowell, the world’s greatest artifact craftsman. That kind of observation is blocked?
myth.
There are only two Mythic-grade items known so far: Excalibur and Blue Dragon Blade. If the observation tells us that the person in front of us is the holder of the third mythical item. The extent of this raised the level of vigilance towards men to the highest level.
And the masked man also spoke in a slightly surprised voice, probably because he noticed that Jeongdo had used observation.
“His divine protection has been activated. You seem to have some kind of spying skill, right? “He was more dangerous than I thought.”
The masked man said so and slowly walked towards the temple. With each step, the man’s energy began to increase explosively.
‘S-class… No, more than that!’
I felt a more powerful energy than the Eucerin I had fought before. no way… Does that mean it’s at least SS level? In that case, all you can do is survive at Gold level. Cold sweat broke out on Jeongdo’s back.
<You have succeeded in loading a high-ranking target. Some of the target’s abilities reside in the user’s body.>
<Mana, strength 1, stamina 1, reflexes 1, and mana sensitivity increased 1.>
And even for that gold, the load time is now over. But fortunately, the man in front of him was still approaching him at a slow pace, perhaps out of pride or because he had another purpose. The degree quickly loaded the wire from the album.
<… The situation doesn’t look good.>
The loaded wire muttered as he understood the severity of the situation, but he didn’t even have time to react. With each step the masked man took, the pressure became more intense. Jeong Do quickly executed the <Combination Draw> and selected two characters.
Equipment and wires.
It was the same composition as the combination that loaded Joun. But now, unlike then, it was not a combination aimed at Joan. When faced with an urgent moment, I simply reflexively used the most recently combined formula. After selecting the equipment and cable, Jeong Do immediately held Seo-yoon’s hand. And he executed the combination.
Paaaat!
Hundreds of business cards came to mind.
<I sensed the saint’s blessing (good luck). A significant bonus is given to the user’s luck!>
<The 10th <Location Draw> is confirmed rare or higher!>
Notification and confirmation of the saint’s blessing
The synergy that had brought about DIA until now exploded at the same time.
‘please!’
It was a moment when I desperately wanted a diamond. Jeongdo looked at the business cards more earnestly than ever.
Shuuk.
However, despite the combination of good luck, the saint’s blessing, and a guaranteed rare or higher draw.
The falling business cards were shining golden.
The golden business card was absorbed into Jeongdo’s forehead, and a storm of mana poured out. At the same time, he turned into a bow and fired an arrow of energy.
bang!
The arrow flew precisely at the masked man and exploded. Explosive power that can crush even a thick steel plate. However, as if it had gone too far, the second and third arrows were fired one after another.
bang! bang!
The area where the man was was covered with smoke along with the explosion. It was a scene where you couldn’t even think that the man in the smoke would be safe.
“indeed. Was he an S-class archer user? “It makes sense that the brakes on the A-class dungeons were blocked.”
There was not even a single soot on the body of the man who was still escaping through the smoke at a slow speed.
<I can’t believe you are calm even after receiving the arrows of this great master. That’s fun.>
The person loaded with this combination of degrees was a master archer who you would have heard of if you knew anything about the Three Kingdoms.
Hahuyeon Myojae (夏侯淵 妙才).
Among his skills, he fired three blast shots, but was unable to hit the masked man. Just before the arrow reached, a translucent film was created in front of the man, blocking the arrow.
“I have to repay you.”
The moment when the man raises his right hand and swings it slightly towards Jeongdo.
A shivering sensation ran down my spine. And Ixia shouted very urgently.
<Master! It’s below!>
The moment he heard those words, Jeong-do immediately pushed Seo-yoon to the side and left the place in reaction. And right after that, where Do-do and Seo-yoon were, a large hand made of black mana rose from the floor and grabbed the air.
“like. Avoid this?”
The man spoke as if he was slightly impressed, but it didn’t reach anyone’s ears. Jeongdo looked down at the floor where his black hand had come from. Judging from the mana he had just released, he would have been mortally wounded if he had been caught there. Plus, he was so secretive that if Ixia hadn’t told him, he would have been killed. Jeongdo swept his chest and got as far away from Seoyoon as possible. He judged that if it was clear that they were targeting him, staying away from Seo-yoon would help her safety.

——————
And that judgment was correct. The man slowly turned towards Jeong-do, as if he didn’t care about Seo-yoon at all. And just in time, the explosion exploded into the man’s face once again.
bang!
“You don’t have the ability to learn. I don’t know why it doesn’t work… hmm?”
After the smoke cleared, the man spoke to Jeong-do, but Jeong-do was no longer there.
It’s just as the man said. He also knew that the explosion could not cause any damage. However, despite this, the reason he shot the explosion was to completely divert the attention from Seo-yoon to himself.
Shook.
The purpose was to block the view with smoke and catch the man behind him. The moment the man’s vision was obscured by smoke, Jeong Do quickly used the Changryongbo to go behind the man and aim his bow. And he fired the arrow as secretly as possible.
Silent poetry.
It was Ha Hoo-yeon’s sniping skill that made no sound. Especially in a dark vision like now, she doesn’t even know why she’s dying, and it’s normal for her head to be pierced.
phut!
A shield was also deployed on the back of the man’s head to block the arrow. And then the man who realized the direction looked behind him and smiled and said.
“I’ll cancel the claim that I don’t have the ability to learn. It was a pretty good number. “If my shield wasn’t automatically activated, I would have been hit.”
With those words, the man tried to raise his hand to use magic again.
“What is this!”
The man’s intention failed.
For the first time since meeting Jeong-do, he let out a voice tinged with embarrassment. Before I knew it, the man’s feet and hands were frozen. After seeing that, he calmly prepared for the next skill.
Just before grabbing the man from behind and throwing a martial arts strike. To some extent, I had already considered the possibility that the shield could be activated even if the arrow was not recognized. Therefore, I mixed in one more skill at Muyeongsi to prepare for just such an emergency.
Freezing time (氷結矢).
While Explosion was a skill aimed at exploding the enemy, Freezing was a skill that blocked the enemy’s movement. The man’s shield blocked the martial arts, but the ice remained and bound his body. This will make the man unable to move for a while.
A golden opportunity.
Jeong Do took out a steel arrow from his inventory. The last time I visited a shopping center, I bought an arrow thinking it might load a character related to a bow.
Although he was temporarily frozen, the man’s shield magic was still intact. In order to hit, he had to either disable the shield or use a skill powerful enough to pierce the shield. And one of Ha Hooyeon’s skills. There was a skill that showed great power.
Cheongungsi (天弓矢).
Ha Hoo-yeon’s secret technique of putting all the energy into a single arrow and shooting it. Jeong Do calmly hung an arrow on the demonstration and infused mana. And it didn’t end there.
<<The saint’s protection> dwells in you. The user’s physical abilities improve. Physical abilities further increase due to the effect of the talent <Saint>.>
Seo-yoon, who understood the situation, applied a buff to Jeong-do with good timing. As a result, the power of Cheongungsi became even stronger.
“Tsk!”
The man struggled, perhaps sensing that the mana coming from the arrow was unusual, but he needed a few more seconds to escape from the freezing time. And those few seconds were too long for Jeong-do. After filling up the mana to its limit, Jeong-do released a demonstration.
Sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!
With the sound of tearing the air, an arrow filled with magical power was shot at the man.
“shit.”
The man looked at the flying arrow and muttered as if he had given up. And as the arrow hit the man’s shield, a huge explosion occurred that could not even be compared to an explosion.
Kwaaaaaaaaaa!!!
A sound like a bomb exploded echoed through the park. And at the same time.
<You have succeeded in loading a high-ranking target. Some of the target’s abilities reside in the user’s body.>
<Mana, strength 1, stamina 1, reflexes 1, and mana sensitivity increased 1.>
Hahuyeon’s load has been released. It was a reaction from a sudden pouring of mana.
“Whoa.”
I was lucky. Because the opponent was caught off guard, he was able to easily deliver a crushing blow. He was certain that he would never be able to survive if he was hit by an attack like this.
but.
“Damn you. How dare you use his protection twice.”
Unfortunately, the expectations were somewhat wrong.
A man walked out from the billowing smoke.
The man’s clothes were in tatters, as if there had been no blows, and blood was dripping from his left arm. However, his injuries were not at a level that could be considered fatal. The man shouted in great excitement.
“As expected, I was right. Should we just leave this guy alone? It will definitely disturb us. “You have to nip it in the bud.”
The man said and raised his right hand.
‘shit!’
Jeongdo bit his lip. As long as the load is released, he is just a Class A user. Even in S-class status, if a spell that you barely managed to avoid comes flying at you… It is difficult to avoid.
“die!”
Just when the man was about to wave his hand.
“Chilseong Geomgyeol Chil-sik. “North Star.”
Eucerin appeared secretly and struck the man in the back. A strong energy emanated from her sword, shattering the man’s shield and sending him flying to the other side.
bang!
The man flew quite a distance and landed in a tree, but Serin’s expression did not look good. She realized that she had not yet slain her enemy by the feel of her sword. She approached him and asked.
“What is this guy with terrifying magical energy? “No, is he even a person?”
“This is an assassin targeting Seoyoon!”
Jeong-do spit out a lie without even blinking an eye. Serin became angry at those words.
“This is absolutely unacceptable! “We will take the saint safely away!”
‘Anyone wants!’
The words rose up in my throat, but I managed to hold them back. Now I had to use whatever was available.
以夷制夷 (以夷制夷).
I had to make her deal with the monkey masked man.
A moment later, the man who had been pinned against the tree got up and ran towards Serin. It seemed like the original purpose of aiming for Jeongdo had already been forgotten. The black energy surrounding the man’s body was at its ominous peak.
Kwaang!!
Serin caught the flying magic with difficulty. She was astonished at the man’s powerlessness.
“what’s this!”
“for a moment! Hang in there just a moment! “I will figure it out soon.”
To the extent that I said that, I loaded the wired album from the album and used <Drawing Relationships> again. Men are already deeply wounded. If he is given at least the gold, he will be able to join forces with Eucerin and win.
and.
<Prince Liu Zen will be strengthened by +4!>
oh my god.
How could it be wired in this situation? Normally, I would have been happy with the success of the reinforcement and the resulting increase in status, but in the current situation, it was the worst. There wasn’t even enough mana left to draw more bonds. I was in a hurry and bought all the remaining cash tickets this week.
normal. normal. normal.
Only normal business cards were selected.
“ah… ”
A feeling of helplessness came over me.
I only realized the extent now. She used to complain about how unlucky she was at drawing, but in reality she was ridiculously lucky. This was normal. It made no sense to pull out a diamond business card at the right time at every moment of crisis.
“hey! not there yet?! “It’s no longer difficult!”
Serin, who was dealing with the man, shouted at Jeongdo. She was visibly on the defensive. Seeing that, Jeongdo bit her lip. If she goes on like this, everyone will die.
‘I can’t help it.’
Jeong Do raised his hand and slowly brought it to his throat. There was a small necklace hanging there.
It was a necklace that Winry gave to him, thinking that she would not be able to handle the sudden change in talent.
Did you say that it would be difficult for humans to handle a sudden rise in talent? No, did you say that the energy of the universe is shaking? Whatever it is, it’s definitely not good.
still.
It’s better than sitting still and dying. Jeong-do decided to gamble with his life.
Tuk!
Jeong Do ripped off the necklace without hesitation.
