Replenishing magic from Ripley wasn’t a choice, but a necessity.
That’s because in the second round that’s about to unfold, the amount of magic and divine power to be expended will be much greater.
I inflicted serious damage on Hwang Seong-yeon with my recent design, but this is by no means the end.
Rather, this was just the beginning.
“...Swallow the blood.”
Hwang Seong-yeon’s voice is heard from the settling dust.
Ultimate skill [Master of Blood].
A skill that maximizes the power of the magic sword [Dine slaif], enhancing existing abilities and even adding new effects.
I had already predicted that he would use this skill.
‘...More accurately, I should say I induced it.’
All the attacks so far were no different from me urging him to quickly bring out his trump card.
Perhaps Hwang Seong-yeon knew this too, which is why he kept saving it.
But in the end, by using the skill, I’ve gained a step ahead in the strategy battle.
‘I can’t let my guard down.’
Of course, the effect of [Master of Blood] is tremendous, as much as it was saved.
Especially in a situation like now where the tide of battle was tilted to one side, it has the power to immediately reverse it.
And among those abilities I’ve experienced...
There was notably ‘super regeneration’.
Swish- Ssss-.
In the completely cleared dust.
The figure of Hwang Seong-yeon appeared, with his jaw and face completely crushed and his right arm and shoulder blown off.
[Lightning of Judgment] at the maximum draw of divine power.
Moreover, it was an attack launched at the gap right in front, so its power was enormous.
‘...I didn’t know it would be to this extent.’
I didn’t expect that Hwang Seong-yeon’s impressive body and face would be damaged to this extent.
It was an attack of such power that an ordinary Holder would have died instantly.
But Hwang Seong-yeon was tenaciously enduring this crisis with the power of [Hero Slayer], [Dine slaif], and [Master of Blood].
Swish- Crackle-.
Along with an eerie sound, his flesh and bones begin to reattach.
The ultimate skill [Master of Blood] has manifested, and finally, super regeneration has begun.
The process of regenerating his distorted face and exploded body was quite bizarre.
It was an unbelievable phenomenon even while watching with the naked eye.
Moreover, the ability of [Dine slaif], which had been enhanced to the extreme, didn’t end there.
Swish- Paaah-!!
Along with the healing, a counterattack begins.
Thorns composed of some black magical power spring forth.
The location is behind my back.
More precisely, from the ground behind.
From within the ground, a level of magical attack that was difficult to calculate poured out.
And before I could properly take a defensive stance.
Those black thorns were shot relentlessly towards me.
“......!”
I almost stopped the next attack I was preparing without realizing it.
Because it seemed like I had to block this surprise attack from Hwang Seong-yeon somehow.
But I had to endure.
I had to believe in the runes, abilities, and items I possessed.
Only then could I lead the battle as designed.
[Detecting a condensed crystal of malice! The brilliant oath of Trillion engraved inside the armor awakens to punish evil. The effect of ‘Divine Protection’ activates.]
[The wearer’s divine power level is 179. ‘Divine Protection’ proportional to this level....]
[With the special effect of the ‘Silver MoonShadow’ rune, the divine sensitivity of the equipment is maximized. The power of the protection increases by 40%!]
‘It worked.’
The special effect of the item that hadn’t been activated yet awakened at the crucial moment.
The special effect ‘Divine Protection’ contained in the legendary armor [Trillion’s Brilliant Oath].
This completely blocked the powerful magical attack of [Dine slaif], demonstrating perfect defense as if there had been no black magical power in this space.
Hwang Seong-yeon, who attempted a counterattack using even his core ultimate skill.
It was the moment when his trump card attack was thwarted.
‘The first design was successful.’
Using two massive magical attacks, [Hide Attack], [Lightning of Judgment].
And even utilizing the special effect ‘Divine Protection’.
The purpose of all this first design was to consume Hwang Seong-yeon’s [Master of Blood] skill and the abilities of [Dine slaif].
And the second design that followed.
It hurts.
It hurts enough to die.
I couldn’t come to my senses in this parade of pain I’ve never experienced before.
‘Damn... it.’
It’s a mistake.
No, this can’t even be called a mistake.
Just how many ultimate skills does this bastard have?
Winning against an opponent who had hidden such an absurd level of skill was close to a miracle.
“Do Jae-hyun.”
In a situation where I couldn’t move a finger.
Endless despair flowed through my mind.
What should I do?
How can I turn the tables again?
I kept asking myself these questions.
But no answers came to mind.
And Hwang Seong-yeon approached me, holding his magic sword.
“You were an interesting opponent. Perhaps the best opponent in my life. I might never see someone like you again.”
He seemed genuinely happy as he smiled at me.
The only enemy who had stood up to him.
Perhaps seeing such an opponent helpless was the ultimate entertainment for a psychopath like him.
“It’s a shame, but it was fun.”
Hearing each of those words was hell.
I wanted to get up right away and behead the bastard, but my damn body wouldn’t budge an inch.
I wanted to pour curses into his ears, but my exhausted body couldn’t even utter a word.
“Farewell.”
He finally announces the end.
His magic sword rises towards the sky.
Is this really how it ends?
At that moment when indescribable anguish and pain intertwined within me.
‘......!!’
A flash of light streaks through my mind.
And.
The execution was even faster than the thought.
‘Art of Weapon Exchange.’
With that, I opened my eyes.
[The skill ‘Random Treatment’ inherent in the ‘Pure Paladin’s Shield’ is activated. A holy spell imbued with the power of Reckless, the God of Healing, is randomly determined.]
[The wearer’s current divine power is 179. The spell’s power increases in proportion to this value!]
[With the special effect of the ‘Silver MoonShadow’ rune, the divine resonance of the equipment is maximized. The spell’s power increases by 40%!]
That’s right.
The ’10 minutes’ weren’t over yet.
As long as 10 minutes hadn’t passed, my attack against Hwang Seong-yeon hadn’t stopped.
I still had the strength to face Hwang Seong-yeon and the obligation to continue facing him.
Within this time limit I had set as the last line of defense, my plan wasn’t over yet.
And.
[The holy spell ‘Resurrection’, which had disappeared into myth, has been selected! All negative elements such as wounds, damage, curses, etc. inflicted on the wearer disappear. You regain a state close to perfect physical condition.]
Even the gods, whose whereabouts were unknown, had raised my hand.
Whoosh-!!
A massive amount of divine power pours into my entire body, and all the pain that enveloped me disappears.
Likewise.
The black thorns that had been binding my body all disappear.
The joy of freedom coursed through my skin.
“Insane....”
And just as the surprised Hwang Seong-yeon hurriedly tried to bring down his sword.
I too.
Had finished preparing my third plan.
“Surge forth.”
Then.
The rippling space welcomed my return.
