201 – Blue Dragon of Valor (2)

The body is heavy.

Just as it appeared in the information window, I could feel that all of my stats had greatly decreased.

Of course, level 10 stealth was also easily released.

It’s not just me.

Master was also standing in front of me, holding a weapon, unhiding.

Her always calm expression has hardened after a long time.

Even from her point of view, as an S-rank holder, it definitely meant that the current situation was not good.

“Jaehyun, that’s probably… .”

“Yeah. It seems to be the boss of this dungeon. That dragon, which I had heard only in rumors… .”

Master’s and my eyes turn to the sky.

The expanse of the sky was the same as before.

A blue dragon, huge enough to cover the entire sky, hovers around it.

Its size is too big to handle.

It’s like the first time I saw Bond, the scale when I didn’t use [Bone Pieces of Transformation].

A great being, the blue dragon of valor.

It was a momentum worthy of the splendid prestige.

‘How much is it in terms of rating?’

Among the monsters I’ve ever seen, if I had to pick one with the highest rating, it would be the S-class monster ‘Swirl Leviathan’.

Swirl Leviathan is a disaster monster that appeared in Pohang.

Also, it was the second piece of the [Slate of the Forgotten Dragon], the ‘sub-ryong’.

Compare that guy with that blue dragon, the monster called Plurius.

—–!!

—–.

A silent scream rang out once again.

A feeling of tension runs through your body.

That heavy body, it seemed as if it would attack us at any moment.

‘… It’s incomparable.’

I shook my head heavily.

It was embarrassing to compare.

Just as there are various differences in skill between A-rank holders and monsters, of course there is a difference in class in S-rank as well.

Swirl Leviathan was one of the weakest among S-class monsters.

Compared to the S-class disaster monsters that have appeared so far, it was quite easy to hunt, and the rune level was quite low, but the stats were very high.

The main rune [Wave that swallowed the whirlpool] is level 7.

Even my contractor Ars, who has the same rune, was rune level 16…

He was, in fact, a monster that should have been classified as the top class A.

In other words, the blue dragon in front of us now belongs to at least the highest level of S-class monsters, or maybe it is the owner of a ‘new class’ that has never appeared in the holder world.

‘Wait a minute. As?’

in such an urgent situation.

As I was constantly searching for a solution in my head, I came to an unusual idea.

A demonic dragon who was subordinate to a great being, As.

This guy is a monster with skills that have reached S rank, and if it was my original rune, I would never be able to contract with him.

However, just like in Bond, I was a dragon knight called ‘Oathman’…

It was a monster that was able to contract because of the [Pride of the Forgotten Dragon Knight] and the [Promise made by the dragon].

The existence that Asth served is now in the sky.

The system directly referred to it as the ‘brave blue dragon’, so there was no doubt.

Then As…

What will happen if I summon you here?

‘Won’t a conversation with the dragon work?’

You never know when the dragon will attack.

The worry didn’t last long.

Without delay, I immediately used the [Summon] rune’s [Call of Contract] skill.

however… .

[A strange flow of magical power is blocking you. Magical movement is impossible due to a special barrier! To lift the restriction, special conditions must be met or the barrier must be destroyed.]

[The use of the ‘Call of the Contract’ skill will be cancelled.]

‘… Damn it.’

blocked right away

realm of great beings.

In this dungeon with that grandiose name, it seemed that a special barrier had been installed to block any warp action using the magic stone.

If the holders who focused on [Training Contracts] entered this dungeon, they would have died instantly without doing anything.

As such, attempts at dialogue through the summoning of As were in vain.

“reappearance! Run away!”

And…

When the attempt failed, a crisis came.

At Master’s sharp cry, I turned my gaze back to the sky.

At some point, the blue dragon that was just hovering in the air and watching us.

It started flapping its wings lightly.

“… … !!”

Our faces are also stained with astonishment at the sight.

It wasn’t the wind that came out of the wings.

water.

it was water

It’s not an amount that catches the eye, but a massive amount that can’t be counted.

In the sky, on the ground, or in the hills beyond…

Water rushes in from all sides.

“crazy… There are too many.”

It was too gigantic to be considered simply water magic.

How many, how deep.

not at all measurable

The land where there was nothing like a wasteland was covered with water like a river.

Shoot aaa!!

Woooo!!

Huge waves sometimes hit the ground like thunder.

With the roar of the waves, Master and I quickly tried to escape.

“A place to escape… .”

Unfortunately, there was nowhere to hide nearby.

A wasteland is literally a wasteland.

There was not a single landmark nearby that could shelter oneself from these waves.

If I somehow leap into the sky, I can avoid the immediate wave, but…

After that, I had to face this sea of water head on.

“… Let a single flower bloom.”

“… … ?!”

And then.

A line of words came out of Master’s mouth.

I know very well what that word means.

[Snowfield Oil Fiber Falling Flower] of [Plum Blossom in the Snow].

Master’s main skill and main ultimate skill, which is quite well known in the holder world.

As it is the ultimate skill of the Assassin series, it was an attack skill with extreme power.

‘Now the ultimate skill… ?’

However, I never thought that the ultimate skill would already come out at this stage.

It’s such a bold decision.

In my common sense, an offensive ultimate skill was always the last attack to finish a battle…

Master had no hesitation in using it to block the opponent’s skill.

Shoot aaa!!

Sus- Suss-

Sasasa-

“Jaehyun has a habit of always saving his skills.”

Master, who quickly moved around me, spoke to me while using skills.

“Whether it’s sparring or fighting. If you think you need it, you should be able to use your skills boldly. Even if it’s an ultimate skill.”

Her body moved busily, but mysteriously, all of the stories entered my ears and stuck.

“My ultimate skill can cut through anything in all directions. Even if that target is magical power, it is no exception.”

Finally, her swords touch the pouring water.

Cloudy weather and fierce waves…

Unexpected snow flowers scatter.

Master moved like a dancer with a sword, and ‘cut’ the waves without hesitation with two short swords.

“… … !!”

It was a truly amazing sight.

The water pouring down on us from all directions was cut by Master’s short sword and naturally gathered together in a remote direction.

Water cut from the right flowed back to the right, and water cut from the left flowed back to the left.

The waters coming from different directions return to each other in the direction they came from.

A ‘vortex’ created through him.

Master just

He created a whirlpool with just a sword strike.

In the small space inside the sea created like that, Master saw me.

“Like this, I use my skills sparingly in situations that I think are necessary. Even if it doesn’t seem like a big deal, it will make Jaehyun a more skilled holder.”

“I will keep that in mind.”

Lessons learned through practice.

This was advice that became flesh and blood for me, who still lacked a career as a holder.

I gripped my sword in tension and listened to her words.

Seeing that, Master nodded and immediately continued.

“reappearance. Can you assist with magical powers?”

“Magic Assist… Yo?”

“Yeah. It would be nice if we could strike together, but with Jaehyun’s abilities right now, it’s almost impossible to hit that dragon. That monster named Flavius is the most destructive of the S-class monsters I’ve ever met.”

At that, I also nodded.

No matter how much my ability is on track, there is a clear limit according to my career.

It was clear that even if he used both [Berserking] and [Yonginhwa], he would not be able to reach Flavius at all.

However, the holder’s strength is not all about ability.

If his physical abilities were lacking, it was enough to add strength by using runes.

“Yeah. I will try.”

“like. Then focus only on deals and help. There is no need for levitation.”

“You don’t need it?”

“Yeah.”

With those words, Master jumped up from the spot.

Literally.

As I jumped, I ‘jumped’.

‘crazy. What is that?’

Master was leaping towards the sky.

Unlike me, Master is not a multi-holder who knows how to use wind attribute magical runes.

Assassin type holder specialized only in combat runes and martial arts.

Of course, I couldn’t use [Levitation].

In other words, she was walking through the air without using magic.

‘That sounds like the empty space I’ve only heard about.’

The runes of the Assassin class or offensive warrior class holders.

[Standing in the Air], a skill that is derived from maximally training the runes, often called ‘Light Gongsul’.

It seems that Master has already reached that level and is in a state of proficiency.

Only then did I understand Master’s bold use of ultimate skills.

Even if she didn’t have to rely on her ultimate skill, her natural ability itself was already a reliable force.

“I have to help too.”

I couldn’t help but stare blankly at her movements.

I also have a certain margin to assist.

The whirlpool created by Master gave me a safe space, and told me that it was the best situation for me to use my magic power.

‘Gwanggwanghwa, Yonginhwa.’

First of all, it pumps stats.

Using two skills, the ability is amplified by 80% at once.

Naturally, the mana figure also easily exceeded the level of an A-class holder.

‘Arrangement. And manifestation.’

[Magic Control] Utilize runes to arrange magic.

The place is unusual, my mouth.

A special magic power is arranged in my wide open mouth.

‘Application, amplification.’

And apply it through the recently acquired spell rune [Florian Spell].

Required rune to implement official magic.

Borrow the power of that rune to change the magic formula, and add [Magical Amplification] to it.

Most of the magic power remaining in my body began to concentrate towards my mouth.

The preparation ends there.

Nothing more was needed.

By the time the mana is slowly concentrated and gradually rises…

I raised my head to the sky and opened my eyes wide.

‘Dragon Breath… !!’

Magical support requested by Master.

The most powerful magical skill that I can use against the dragon in the sky right now is…

Ironically, it was [Dragon Breath], the exclusive property of dragons.
