169 – first contract (2)

The situation of the remaining party members was not so good.

At first glance, there are more than 40 members of the ＜Villain＞ clan gathered here on Gijang Island.

Yoo Eun-seol and Do Jae-hyeon are taking the lead and stirring up the enemy camp, but there is a limit to that as well.

Honestly, even if only half of them, 20, attacked, it would be hell for the allied party.

Looking at the situation, Kim Chae-eun bit her lips slightly.

‘It’s too dangerous.’

Thirteen people remained in the party behind them.

Among them, there are 4 warriors and assassins who can take the lead.

Kwon Oh-jun, Park Jin-woo, Shin Yuna, Choi Dong-wook.

There were only four of them.

They were dealing with at least 3 ＜villain＞ clan members per person, protecting the rear personnel.

No matter how much you fight with buffs and support…

In the many-to-one composition, of course, the burden was bound to increase.

‘Jaehyun too… .’

Suddenly, in Kim Chae-eun’s field of vision, Do Jae-hyeon, fighting lonely in the distance, came into view.

To break the party crisis.

And Do Jae-hyun, who jumped into the enemy camp alone to help the party leader Yoo Eun-seol.

Kim Chae-eun after the battle started.

My mind was full of worries about him, and I couldn’t concentrate.

Just in case…

Really, just in case, he’s in the wrong.

Even while fighting the enemy, such anxiety settled on one side of his mind.

‘… Fool.’

Come to think of it, he was always like that.

When a crisis situation arises, no matter what the incident, he always took the lead.

There was no hesitation or worry at all.

He must have been dangerous and scary himself, but he always reassured the rest with a smile on his face.

Same this time.

At Kwon Oh-joon’s request, which seemed like an overkill, I finished my preparations without saying anything and jumped into the enemy camp.

Even if I take a safe role sometimes, no one will complain… Do Jae-hyun did not do that.

It was because he was well aware of the risk of eventually returning to the party if he did so.

Kim Chae-eun felt sorry for him.

The burden he shouldered included burdens that were not easily quantified.

obviously there.

Kim Chae-eun herself would have been burdened.

‘It should be helpful.’

I had to lighten his burden.

It would be dangerous to go on like this.

If this side, the rear personnel, struggles, Do Jae-hyeon, who should receive support, naturally becomes more burdensome.

Even on this side, we had to find a breakthrough in the end, so that the flow of battle could be positively drawn.

A member that can create that variable.

They were definitely at this party.

“Maintain.”

“… yes.”

Kang Joo-yeon, who was sweating and casting magic, answers Kim Chae-eun’s call.

Usually, they secretly give off a sense of enmity, but even in the current situation, there was no time to show that side.

“You know? We have to catch that wizard.”

“… … .”

At Kim Chae-eun’s words, Kang Joo-yeon quietly nodded.

A short distance away from the party.

＜Villain＞ A female holder who spreads magic alone in the center of the clan members.

Cha Soo-yeon, she was the problem.

I’ve experienced it once in Japan, but Cha Soo-yeon’s gravity magic is quite tricky.

It had a ‘slowing’ effect by controlling the movement of the front lines overall, and the wizard series were also difficult to attack completely because they were disturbed by their concentration.

If Hwang Dong-yeon and Hwang Seong-yeon were the center of the front enemy camp, Cha Soo-yeon was the center of the rear enemy camp.

I had to deal with her in some way to solve the current dire situation.

“I am ready.”

Moon Ga-eun from the side interrupted them.

and protested at the same time.

A strong shot [Extreme Shot].

One member of the ＜Villain＞ clan was hit in the leg and collapsed.

It wasn’t just her.

“Oh. If you’re going to do it, do it quickly. I am getting tired.”

Chaeng- Chaejaeng-

Accompanied by the dull sound of weapons clashing, Park Jin-woo, who stepped back for a moment, came this way and calmed down his breathing.

Like he said, he didn’t have much time.

Still, the number of ＜villains＞ was far greater than this one, and it was a pretty big risk to bring in a lacking warrior class.

‘I just need to be more certain.’

However, the words that there is a risk were in line with the saying that an effective strategy to bring about the atmosphere can be launched.

Kang Joo-yeon, Moon Ga-eun, Park Jin-woo, and Kim Chae-eun.

An elite party that was together when attacking the ‘Academy Underground Dungeon’, an upper-middle level dungeon.

Excluding Do Jae-hyun, it was a party where everyone knew each other better than anyone else and got along well.

Kim Chae-eun, who confirmed that all the members were gathered, nodded firmly and raised her mana.

And.

With a short command, he announced the signal flare for the operation.

“Swallow the cold.”

The surroundings are filled with cold.

The rune Kim Chae-eun obtained earlier, [Frozen Battlefield].

That ultimate skill [Blizzard].

The same skill as the trademark of his teacher, Jeong Seon-young, unfolds here in the middle of Gijang Island.

[Blizzard] is a single target attack skill.

A powerful ice-type magical attack that freezes everything on the target if it can be reached.

Although Kim Chae-eun’s proficiency was still too low and immature, it was clear that it was a skill that could change the flow of battle.

That target…

Naturally, the core holder of the enemy discussed from the beginning.

It was Cha Soo-yeon.

Sssss-!

Awesome-!!

“Chief… !!”

However, the moment when the cold air was about to reach Cha Soo-yeon.

One of the enemy clan members quickly approached and blocked [Blizzard] with his body.

Its movement was very fast, and it looked like it used the effect of a specific rune or skill.

Seeing that, Kim Chae-eun licked her lips as if she was sorry.

If it worked, the composition would have completely changed, but the enemies weren’t fools either, so I didn’t just watch it.

‘it’s okay.’

I wasn’t disappointed though.

The fact that her ultimate skill wouldn’t work was because she expected it from the beginning to a certain extent.

The important thing is that as the enemies who sensed the crisis moved, the previous composition changed.

“Park Jinwoo! Just run!”

Moon Ga-eun shouts loudly and fires her wide-area skill [Triple Power Shot] at the enemies.

Her main rune is [Wind Archer].

A bow-type weapon rune with the wind attribute added, it has the unique effect of changing the power of an attack depending on the wind direction or speed.

The current wind direction is northwest.

Exactly, it was blowing in the direction of ＜villain＞ from this side.

“Oh… !!”

At the same time, Park Jin-woo runs forward explosively.

Park Jin-Woo is a fighter with a quick sword tendency who focuses on speed.

The main rune that symbolizes him right now is also the [Invincible Quicksword].

Although he does not possess the assault rune like Do Jae-hyeon, he has the ability to be effective enough in such a short distance and melee.

Therefore, with the support of Moon Ga-eun, his entry with wings… There was no shortage of confounding enemies.

Chaeng- Chaejaeng-!!

Kaga River-!!

“Fuck! STOP!!”

“What’s so fast… Did you hide your power?”

“hey! If I go all the way to you, the balance will fall!”

A crack occurred on the side of ＜Villain＞, which was driven by waves.

Kim Chae-eun’s ultimate skill [Blizzard], Park Jin-woo’s rapid entry, and Moon Ga-eun’s firepower support.

A party that suddenly went from being defensive to being aggressive.

It was a movement that seemed to be pressed to the fullest by the momentum that pushed it as if it had awakened.

“Never let the guys in charge of you go! Hold tight!”

Thanks to this, the ＜Judgment of Fire＞ hunting team and the remaining party members, who had been fighting hard, noticed the flow and added more strength.

Everyone gritted their teeth and endured Kwon Oh-joon’s cry.

He had to somehow get Park Jin-woo to reach Cha Soo-yeon.

And as if responding to it.

Park Jin-woo pushed inward without hesitation.

“Follow me!”

Three ＜villain＞ clan members who block the moment.

In front of them, Park Jin-woo used the ultimate skill he had been saving.

[Non-overstretching].

It’s originally a skill that cuts a single target a total of 17 times…

When the majority were concentrated in one place like now, it was possible to continue the attack as if tying the majority to one target.

“Keuk, kkeaaak-!!”

“Ignore the durability! be careful!”

The ＜Billon＞ clan members tried to stop him somehow, but an unprepared defense is just a sand castle.

They were easily destroyed by Park Jin-Woo’s sword.

Kim Chae-eun has just learned [Blizzard], and even that skill is non-target, making it difficult to hit.

On the other hand, Park Jin-woo had already mastered the ultimate skill in the past, and unlike Kim Chae-eun, he had been dealing with and researching [Biwolcham] for a long time.

It is an ultimate skill that was finally completed after being broken by Do Jae-hyun all day.

There was no way that such an attack could be prevented by just throwing oneself at it.

“mmm- what useless bastards. reverse.”

As the situation progressed to this point, the enemy eventually came up with a countermeasure.

Cha Soo-yeon’s voice was full of annoyance.

It was a commandment to unleash the ultimate skill, [Reverse Gravity].

[Reverse Gravity] is a skill that reverses the gravity applied to the target in an instant to change the force.

If her gravity magic was a kind of pulling power with ‘gravity’, should this ultimate skill be called pushing power with ‘repulsion’?

Because of this, the holders, who were suffering from the pressure of gravity magic, immediately rose to the sky as soon as this skill unfolded.

The holders who endured in front of Kwon Oh-jun and Choi Dong-wook.

Wizard-type holders who were preparing for a magical attack.

Even Park Jin-woo, who ran towards Cha Soo-yeon.

All of them floated in the sky under the influence of [Reverse Gravity].

Cha Soo-yeon’s specialty.

It was an ultimate skill that showed the extreme of abnormal conditions.

“… ah?”

“Five… right. You got it, bitch.”

however.

There was one thing Cha Soo-yeon missed.

Park Jin-woo…

No, Kim Chae-eun, who planned this short operation.

From the beginning, he had no intention of catching Cha Soo-yeon as Park Jin-woo.

Just one wound

Or a ‘point’ that cuts down on durability.

That was enough.

Right before rising to [Reverse Gravity].

Park Jin-woo’s sword barely cut Cha Soo-yeon’s shoulder.

And, with that, Park Jin-woo’s role was over.

“Mmm- you’re screaming that you want to die. You are especially Do Jae-hyun, with that bastard… ”

Fire, fire-!!

Cha Soo-yeon, who was trying to put an end to Park Jin-woo, who appeared to be displeased, was startled by the magic she felt at the moment and opened the [Magic Defense Shield].

hot magical energy.

An intense fire was constantly gathering toward Cha Soo-yeon’s shoulder.

And.

“… Burn up!”

An ultimate skill that satisfies all of the specific conditions.

Kang Joo-yeon’s [Inferno] began to burn without hesitation from Cha Soo-yeon’s shoulder.

A fire that seemed to burn everything and obliterate every trace.

Kang Joo-yeon’s fire never let go of the target she caught.

“Keep it, chiaaagh-!!”

One more time.

The terrible screams of Cha Soo-yeon, heard in Japan, echoed across Gijang Island.

This time, there is really nowhere to retreat…

It was the wall of a dead end alley.

* * *

done.

Kang Joo-yeon’s one shot worked well.

Kim Chae-eun clenched her fists and rejoiced inwardly.

He is also the academy’s best prospect holder.

I don’t like her usual behavior, but I had to admit her skills.

In the midst of the worst situation, she was the only reliable holder, and she clearly proved her ability.

Thanks to this, Cha Soo-yeon, who was the key holder of the enemies, was completely retired, and the ＜Villain＞ side fell into confusion.

They were still outnumbered, but at this rate they seemed to be able to stop them.

‘Jaehyun is… .’

When the short operation ended in success and the situation in the back flowed stably, Kim Chae-eun turned her head.

Now I can afford to help Do Jae-hyeon.

It was time to add strength to him who was fighting alone.

By the way… .

“… to?”

Kim Chae-eun, who turned her head, doubted her eyes.

Something.

there are so many things

On the side of the enemies who were filled with a huge number of holders…

This time, it was filled with a huge number of monsters.

Yes.

monster.

They were obviously monsters.

I don’t know why, but here on Gijang Island where the holders’ bloody battle continued… Some monsters appeared innumerable and occupied the place.

Even the main characters are undead.

Skeleton, Dullahhan, Banshee, Wraith and more.

At first glance, all kinds of monsters that looked like curses were walking around, showing off their terrible appearances.

I thought I was just getting into stability, but the situation was heading for the worst.

“… … ?”

but.

It wasn’t the procession of monsters that made Kim Chae-eun rub her eyes.

In the midst of the monsters, as if he were the captain.

A monstrous monster boasting a gigantic and massive size.

A giant dragon whose entire body is made of bones.

It was because of that cursed dragon.

No, to be precise.

“Why are you there, Jaehyun? ?”

To be precise, the holder riding on the giant dragon.

And it’s like giving some spleen instructions…

A holder with a very familiar appearance.

It was because of his friend, Do Jae-hyun.
