the primary factor Jin-Woo did after he were given home changed into to convey up his repute Window.
‘Stat Window.’
What he desired to check out was the newly updated info on his abilities. His gaze scrolled past his current degree, his elegance and name, and eventually arrived on the skill Window.
[Skills]
Passive skills
– (Unknown) Lv. MAX
– Tenacity Lv. 1
– grasp of Shortsword Lv. MAX
active abilities
– Quicksilver Lv. MAX
– Intimidation Lv. 2
– Violent curb Lv. MAX
– Dagger Rush Lv. MAX
– Stealth Lv. 2
– Ruler’s reach Lv. MAX
almost all of his bountiful skills displayed in the talent Window had reached their level restriction and developed into their final paperwork, or had been about to adapt into one.
the extent cap for a talent changed into 3. And when a talent reached the level cap, the number would alternate to ‘MAX’ and stopped growing any similarly than that. but, if he persisted to increase his skillability with the competencies, they would eventually evolve into their last versions. the distance among the ability’s effectiveness earlier than and after its evolution was fantastically big.
The talent ‘dash’ had developed into ‘Quicksilver’.
The skill ‘vital points Targetting’ had developed into ‘Violent scale down’.
And ‘Dagger Throw’ had morphed into ‘Dagger Rush’.
Even the passive talent that aided with coping with daggers and shortswords, ‘high-Grade Dagger technique’, had advanced into ‘master of Shortsword’.
The result of that remaining evolution changed into something like this. Jin-Woo summoned ‘Demon King’s Shortsword’ out and began manipulating it this way and that on his hand.
He spun the weapon seamlessly round his index finger earlier than letting it glide as much as the palm of his hand. It then easily slithered round to the again of his hand.
The close to-acrobatic silky moves persisted on for a bit whilst, earlier than he lightly tossed the weapon over his head and snatched it returned in his grip. Jin-Woo slowly smacked his lips afterwards.
‘What a pity that there is nobody here to appreciate this.’
The shortsword felt like an extension of his own limb, and that become all because of the passive talent, ‘master of Shortsword’.
Jin-Woo shifted his gaze over to the skill Window whilst repeatedly tossing the shortsword up and down.
‘So, ‘Intimidation’ and ‘Stealth’ are the best with sensible probabilities of having more potent, huh.’
Regretfully, there didn’t seem to be tons room for the ‘Tenacity’ skill to enhance past stage 1, wherein it had been stuck ever due to the fact he got the ability. however, that became inevitable, truly.
[Skill: Tenacity Lv.1]
Passive talent.
Mana required to set off: None.
You possess untiring tenacity. whilst your stamina drops beneath 30%, this skill will mechanically prompt and decrease all damage received by using 50%.
….because, ‘Tenacity’ turned into a talent that most effective activated while his stamina dropped under 30%. manifestly, he wouldn’t endanger his very own existence just to stage up one among his abilties, now might he?
also, Jin-Woo had skilled a truthful wide variety of near shaves after that passive skill became part of his arsenal. Even then, it hadn’t modified from being level 1, so that would most effective imply he’d need to go through an exceptional situation just for a chance to improve this ability.
besides, Jin-Woo becoming a long way too robust additionally played a factor right here. simply how many enemies available could realistically force him to a determined corner now?
All matters taken into consideration, he had no preference however to overlook approximately upgrading ‘Tenacity’ altogether.
He then decided to growth his talent with both ‘Stealth’ and ‘Intimidation’, the latter of which he hadn’t had quite a few probabilities to utilise till now and became caught at stage 2 as a result.
not like ‘Intimidation’, which became as a substitute hard to set off willy-nilly everywhere as he pleased, he should prompt ‘Stealth’ even when he turned into going through his each day routines.
but, proper now, Jin-Woo’s gaze became fixed to a gap up above those capabilities.
‘simply what should this man be?’
He become looking on the talent in reality labelled as ‘Unknown’ discovered inside the passive skill list.
This skill had been with him ever seeing that he became the ‘participant’. however up till now, not even its fundamental records have been revealed to him.
‘I notion it’d in the end divulge its secrets after some time, but….’
Did this skill also require him to meet some sort of a condition to be unlocked as nicely? as it became labelled ‘MAX’ from the very beginning, he became in reality searching ahead to finding out simply what type of ability it turned into, but this….
a number of time had handed because those days, however his curiosity handiest managed to develop larger and large in the intervening time.
‘……..’
Jin-Woo persisted to stare on the ‘Unknown’ ability until he nearly bore a hollow right via it, but ultimately, he shook his head in defeat. besides, what he really desired to verify couldn’t be found in the normal talent Window, anyway.
No, they were proper beneath it.
certainly, he wanted to check his class-unique skills that had all long past up a stage earlier in the day.
[Class-specific Skills]
lively talent
– Shadow Extraction Lv. 2
– Shadow garage Lv. 2
– Sovereign’s Territory Lv. 2
– Shadow exchange Lv. 2
‘So, what modified, and via how lots?’
Jin-Woo took a more in-depth study the information on the abilties, apart from ‘Shadow exchange’, which he had already taken a gander earlier than.
[Skill: Shadow Extraction]
class-unique ability.
Required Mana to activate: None
Creates a shadow soldier with the aid of extracting Mana from the lately deceased lifeform.
the chances of extraction failure will rise higher depending at the target’s unique Stat values, in addition to the period of time because its dying.
wide variety of shadows that can be extracted: 590/1,three hundred
stage 2 impact ‘raise’: will increase the chances of enhancing the Stats of the extracted shadow.
perhaps as a reward for such a hard levelling up method, the number of shadows he may want to extract had shot up to a shocking degree.
‘The maximum variety of shadows is now 1,three hundred?!’
as long as his surroundings have been packed with objectives for Shadow Extraction, he’d be able to increase the variety of his allies by means of nicely over double the cutting-edge size. not handiest that, there was the unique introduced effect to recall as properly, which raised the odds of the extracted shadows commencing at higher degrees.
‘So, that’s what it changed into….’
The purpose for the boss-stage Naga ‘Jima’ to start from level 13 turned into maximum likely due to this ‘raise’ effect. It wasn’t a accident in any respect.
‘What would’ve came about if I possessed this increase impact earlier than I made Beru right into a Shadow Soldier?’
honestly, he would possibly are becoming his fingers on an even extra terrifying monster.
‘Heh, and the wise vintage ‘they’ say that a person’s greed is aware of no bounds, didn’t they?’
Jin-Woo smirked softly to himself and confirmed the info of his different class-particular skills one by one. the other capabilities had also received a lot of enhancements, and a new, by no means-earlier than-visible impact changed into added to each of them, as properly.
A wide grin settled on Jin-Woo’s lips as he read the explanations of his upgraded abilties, ‘Shadow storage’ and ‘Sovereign’s Territory’.
‘this is remarkable.’
He closed the talent windows with a glad grin on his face.
there has been absolute confidence that his boom had slowed down lately. Even then, he still controlled to hold transferring ahead, and when he idea about the reality that there has been nonetheless extra room for him to grow, his heart started out pounding even more difficult.
He desired to climb even higher and better.
‘I don’t recognise in which the summit is, but….’
each time he managed to reach and exceed his desires, his heart become filled with this indescribable happiness, a powerful bliss.
Ba-thump, ba-thump!!
Jin-Woo again the shortsword lower back to stock and located his hand quietly on his chest.
Ba-thump, ba-thump.
His heart issued satisfactory noises as it continued to conquer steadily.
It became then, he remembered something else that happened in advance in the day.
‘…..She stated it was a frightening electricity, didn’t she?’
He recalled the tale he heard from Cha Hae-In a few hours ago.
Min Byung-Gu left a warning for him. He stated that Jin-Woo became in ownership of a frightening strength, and he needed to be circumspect approximately it.
‘changed into he speakme about the system?’
Jin-Woo additionally became scared of the matters going on to him to start with as properly. He felt nervous closer to the system capable of developing these kind of unexplainable phenomena around him.
however, his fears didn’t ultimate for lengthy.
He tailored to the methods of the gadget right away at all. And the gadget quick have become the unmarried finest tool he possessed.
certain, there have been still far too many mysteries left unanswered, but that changed into about it, absolutely.
‘…..’
Jin-Woo’s gaze drifted toward the empty air in front of him.
“simply what are you?”
Of direction, he didn’t get a solution in go back.
“I imply, isn’t it okay to inform me what’s taking place already?”
He quietly stared into the empty air as though he became looking ahead to a solution to reach, however alternatively obviously, not anything came.
‘stock.’
Jin-Woo opened his storage to extract the black key.
[Item: Key to the Karutenon temple]
Rarity….
….has been reached.
final time: 249:25:07
here it become, the invitation despatched out with the aid of the system.
a week’s really worth of time had flown by way of already, and simplest round 250 hours remained.
‘What type of solutions will I locate in that place?’
1/2 of him became filled with expectancies. And the other half, deep curiosity. His heart charge that quietened down for a bit started out beating quicker once more. Jin-Woo lifted his hand off his chest.
His mind of doing the whole lot he ought to all through the final time hadn’t changed at all. He picked his cellphone up and quickly made a call.
– “What am i able to do for you, hyung-nim?”
Yu Jin-Ho responded in a cheerful voice over the telephone. Jin-Woo wasted no time and were given directly into the main subject matter.
“hello, Jin-Ho?”
– “sure, hyung-nim?”
“you suspect we’ll be able to ebook every unmarried excessive-ranking Gate commencing up in our vicinity from day after today onwards?”
– “much like lower back whilst we were reserving all those rank C Gates, hyung-nim?”
“Yeah, like that.”
Yu Jin-Ho concept for a bit at the same time as, before replying again with a vivid-sounding voice.
– “got it, hyung-nim!”
***
A massive crowd had collected within the japanese airport where the Russian rank S Hunter, Yuri Orlov, made his touchdown, and there has been rarely any space left to even set a foot inside.
The corners of Yuri Orlov’s lips arched up as he took inside the sight of the massive throng of eastern humans coming to look him.
however, the excessive-ranking members of the japanese Hunter’s association bringing the Russian home walked around with their heads decreased as if they have been criminals occurring an ordeal.
‘The country lacking enough gifted Hunters to prevent a calamity by using themselves, in order that they must borrow the strength of Hunters from some other state.’
the ones words had been what Japan used to ridicule South Korea just a few weeks in the past. yet, the exact equal situation changed into playing itself out within the jap border now.
The affiliation President Matsumoto Shigeo, in addition to the affiliation’s representatives, recalled their very own beyond indiscretion and couldn’t even dare to lift their heads up once more.
‘If handiest we didn’t lose our Hunters on Jeju Island….’
Matsumoto Shigeo bit his decrease lip.
“It’s Yuri Orlov!!”
“It’s him, Yuri!”
The newshounds from all corners of the world observed Yuri Orlov’s effective figure and began madly snapping away with their cameras.
click, click on, click on, click, click on, click on-!!
The Russian Hunter stood before them and shaped a extensive grin as though to proudly advertise his gold enamel.
His access method became taken care of in a flash. the primary request Yuri Orlov obtained from the japanese government became to appease the fears of the u . s .’s residents. And he agreed to do the request without problems enough.
His nickname changed into the ‘Saviour’. This moniker came about because he had blocked up limitless Gates on the point of getting into the dungeon destroy level up until now.
As for Yuri Orlov himself, he without a doubt didn’t shrink back from this nickname which held the ability to earn him all of the wealth and fame within the world.
“Are you ready, Mister Yuri Orlov?”
“Of direction.”
That evening, he became moved to a sure television station for a live interview. It become quite apparent that the eye of the whole nation of Japan become centered in this broadcast.
once the proceedings got underway, the interviewer requested the Russian.
“how can you block the Gate, Mister Yuri?”
“inside the same way that I’ve been doing until now, glaringly.”
Yuri Orlov’s expression became overflowing with relaxed, assured confidence. He raised each of his hands inside the air and drew a huge circle.
“I’ll be growing a large magic circle. Like so, across the Gate itself.”
The display screen modified for a brief second to expose the Gate in Shinjuku. and then, the 3D diagram of the magic circle was superimposed with the photograph of that huge Gate.
“after which, the entirety might be completed when I pour my magic power into it. something is inside that Gate, they received’t be able to pop out ever again.”
lamentably, one of these simple clarification wasn’t sufficient to calm the fears of the japanese humans. The interviewer tilted his head, looking unconvinced.
“Pardon me, but… is that even possible?”
Yuri Orlov’s brows twitched slightly.
“what is?”
The interviewer carefully studied the Russian’s temper as he requested once more.
“nicely, the declare of one rank S Hunter being able to block up an entire rank S Gate is…. Shall I say that, it’s a piece difficult to believe?”
all at once, Yuri Orlov began smirking derisively.
The Russian Hunter become famed for his short fuse. So, the interviewer felt quite relieved internal whilst Yuri Orlov chuckled rather than flying immediately into an enraged kingdom. however at the same time, the japanese interviewer became even greater unnerved then earlier than, questioning if he had inadvertently touched that guy’s reverse scale.
fortuitously enough, Yuri Orlov stored his smile.
“If I were to keep spending my magic power to hold that barrier, then certain, even I wouldn’t be able to tug that off.”
He wouldn’t be able to do it?
Gulp.
The interviewer swallowed his dry saliva.
With the japanese rank S Hunters having correctly introduced their intentions to surrender at the raid, if Yuri Orlov himself additionally determined to forget approximately the Gate, then there were no other solutions left for the japanese people.
The Russian took his time and enjoyed the sight of the stiff face of the interviewer before persevering with on with his words.
“however, the thing with my potential is…. The barrier magic circle i take advantage of absorbs magic strength from its surroundings to maintain itself.”
“….!!!”
In an instant, the interviewer’s expression changed.
“If that’s the case, then what did you suggest while you said your very own magic energy was wished….?”
“It’s the identical predominant as switching on the ignition of a car. once my barrier gets going, it’s going to start soaking up the magic power and grow to be a fair sturdier and bigger castle wall.”
A certain ray of light descended on the faces of the interviewer in addition to the filming crew once they heard that rationalization.
Yuri Orlov’s leisurely voice become filled to the brim with undeniable self-self belief. And as though that confidence had all started spreading around like an contamination, the japanese tv crew felt their fears slowly melt away.
in step with his rationalization, wouldn’t his barrier grow harder and more potent whilst there was a exceptional amount of magic power present inside the environment?
there was no want to even mention the easy reality that the magic power being emitted through a rank S Gate changed into absolutely good sized. So, what could take place whilst any such barrier turned into to wrap round a Gate of that importance?
It’d get all tied up by using its very own electricity, that’s what. where might all and sundry find a situation that higher match the concept of 1 falling into the trap it made itself?
At this charge, the hardness of that barrier might come to be the finest within the recorded records of mankind.
Yuri Orlov pointed to the digital camera. He was probable pointing on the unspecified number of visitors at home along with his finger. Thick veins bulged in his neck as he shouted out.
“i can keep all of you! So, all you need to do is to don’t forget who’s saving you!”
***
Beep.
The giant television changed into switched off.
The President of Korean Hunter’s affiliation, Goh Gun-Hui, positioned the television far off down, however his expression wasn’t very good at all. Woo Jin-Cheol standing subsequent to him asked.
“What do you believe you studied, sir?”
“i can’t be sure.”
Goh Gun-Hui leaned against the sofa, his expression now full of fear. He changed into distinct from his eastern counterpart; he sincerely wasn’t a few low-lease villain who’d deride the misfortune of his neighbouring nation.
even though, that didn’t imply he became inclined to help them out whilst taking over the harsh fee his own kingdom might must endure. He deliberated for a quick whilst, before opening his mouth again.
“I don’t understand whether or not Yuri Orlov could be a hit in blocking up that rank S Gate or now not, but….”
The eyes of the affiliation President Goh Gun-Hui became loads sharper.
“….but, i’m well aware of what will happen if he fails in his challenge.”
“…..It’s this sort of remedy, sir.”
“…..?”
Goh Gun-Hui regarded up at Woo Jin-Cheol with a surprised face. best then did the latter recognise that his boss had misunderstood his phrases. Woo Jin-Cheol hurriedly waved round his arms.
“I wasn’t regarding the situation in Japan, sir. however….”
Woo Jin-Cheol stopped for a 2nd or two earlier than carrying out his explanation.
“not like how it’s far with the japanese, I’m relieved by the fact that we have a Hunter we will totally vicinity our agree with in. That’s what I supposed, sir.”
Nod, nod.
Goh Gun-Hui nodded his head greatly. there was no want for him to in particular ask who that Hunter changed into, both. That Hunter’s presence by myself imparted any such feel of security in him.
“Oh, with the aid of the way. How is going it with Seong Jin-Woo Hunter-nim nowadays?”
Woo Jin-Cheol wordlessly driven ahead a chunk of printed report to his boss.
On it, one could discover the listed places of all the high-ranking Gates that had regarded lately across the town of Seoul and the surrounding Gyeonggi province.
“Why are you giving me this, all of a sudden….?”
“Sir, can you see how most of the locations were circled in purple?”
“looks as if it’s about 1/2 of all the dungeons.”
Woo Jin-Cheol speedy wiped the cold sweat streaking down his forehead and responded.
“Ah-Jin Guild needs the raid permits of all of the highlighted Gates, sir.”
Goh Gun-Hui’s eyes almost popped out of their sockets.
“those…. they all?!”
“sure, sir. That’s correct.”
