Tower (3)
Kwagwagwang!
An explosion occurred over the arena. It was powerful enough to break the floor despite the strengthening magic that increased durability.
Hong Jae-yu fought against Noah Park by creating indigo dark swords, ejecting them and exploding them.
It was planned to break the protective magic by accumulating damage from the explosion. It was ignorant, but not bad.
Not only did Hong Jae-yu satisfy the condition of needing a lot of mana, but there were few people who could come through the indiscriminately spreading explosion.
But the opponent was bad.
Whoops! Noah Park rushed through the black smoke from the explosion. Her face was rubbed black, but the protective magic was still there.
Blood vessels swelled up on the arm where Hong Jae-yu took off the bandage. The overload was obvious, but somehow he created a new magic sword.
And once again ejected.
Shoo! Hong Jae-yu picked up his magic sword and shot it. However, Noah Park was able to avoid even that at close range and succeeded in approaching her nose. It was a monstrous move.
Hong Jae-yu created a magic sword with his hands to respond immediately, but the speed was significantly slower than before. The overload limit has come.
A look of disappointment passed by for a moment. At the same time, Noah Park raised her sword with her diagonal and cut it.
👌👌👌👌👌 A fatal blow was inflicted on the exposed torso. The protective magic surrounding Hong Jae-yu’s body was broken in two.
It’s been a while, but it’s still there.
“Noah Park wins!”
The result echoed in the stadium, and Jae-Yoo Hong came down from the stadium. thump. The guy came to the entrance where I was waiting, exhausted. Then he looked at me and tried to ignore me and pass by quietly.
“Are you a jerk?”
Of course, it’s a pity to just let it go.
Jae-Yoo Hong frowned at my teasing and looked at me, but unlike usual, he did not respond. giggle. A loser has no words.
“If I make it to the quarterfinals, watch it there. Eight rivers.”
I patted Dari’s shoulder and passed by.
I got on the pitch and warmed up a bit before the match. Looking around the audience, it was definitely the quarterfinals, so there were more people than before. Tales, who came up from the opposite side, said with a relaxed attitude.
“I don’t think I’ve been able to compete in a team event before, but it’s my first time.”
“That’s it.”
A quiver was tied to Tails’ waist. His hand was already holding the bow. Tails smiled bitterly at the weapons I was holding.
“Isn’t that too much of my sniper?”
“I can’t even use magic, but I can’t help it.”
I waved the shield in my left hand.
Since there are two types of weapons that can be carried at a maximum, the weapons I brought up this time were a shield and a pistol. That’s probably because Tails’ personality is ‘technique’.
It was a personality with a comprehensive and simple ability that could add technique to any action, but it was a power that matched well with archer Russell Tails.
The reason that the archers are more welcome than the gunners is that the power of the Awakener is stronger than relying on a gun to shoot directly, but unlike bullets that fly in a straight line, arrows can be bent using wind and archer skills. because it could
Simply put, you can call it a howitzer.
If you use the power of mana, you could even do the assassination without any trace. However, using mana was difficult to detect because it was right, but it was not impossible.
But not Tails.
With his individuality and ‘technique’, he shows off his howitzer to his heart’s content without relying on mana with his clever hand movements. It’s not bent once, but in an S shape.
However, even that arrow is my body in the end. If you block it with a shield, you won’t be able to hit it easily.
“Are you all ready?”
Nodding his head, the instructor announced the start of the game.
At the same time as the crowd cheered, Tails quickly pulled the chords and fired arrows.
I also have the privilege activated.
[Concentration] was activated by pointing the gun while holding the shield in order to chase arrows with eyes.
‘······uh?’
What was seen in the slowed time was a total of three arrows. It was also an arrow flying in different directions left, right, and up.
crazy. Three shots at a time? And in many ways?
It was obvious that those who had escaped to one side would bend once more and fly behind my back. Because it was the characteristic of Tales that even the direction of avoiding would fall into the category of attack.
Even though my cognitive time has become infinitely longer, it does not mean that time has stopped. I made a quick decision and pulled the trigger. Mana-enhanced bullets exploded from the muzzle.
bang! A bullet fired before the sound passed Tales’ cheeks. But, as if he had anticipated my attack, Tails was still protesting, bowing to the side.
Not a songwriter this time. It was clear that it was a quick direct fire that reached the right timing with the arrows bending from behind.
“Come on, my victory…?! Whoops!”
Aww! But while Tales was talking, the shield that I threw down hit him directly in the forehead. If there was enough time, it was a sound I would want to call a nice shot.
‘Is it because I didn’t think I would throw a shield?’
I mean, it’s pretty useful.
Once again time slows down.
I immediately pulled the trigger and flew backwards towards one of the arrows that were bent and flying. The arrow hit by the bullet broke, and the arrow that bent upward succeeded in avoiding it.
Whoops! However, the arrow that flew to the right could not be avoided and was stuck behind my back. Critical damage protection magic was pierced.
But that’s it. The protective magic was not broken by this blow.
At that moment, Tails, who briefly lost consciousness, staggered and stood up.
Bullets are already reinforced ones. The power is enough. I pulled the trigger randomly at Tails.
Wow! damn! Every time a bullet pierced through, the strong protective magic was tattered in an instant. Before long, it could be seen shattering and breaking.
I stopped firing and lowered the steaming muzzle.
Only 5 seconds after the match started.
The match was won at once.
“…a surge of victory!”
One step later, the instructor declared my victory. I approached Tails, who was grinning in frustration.
“Good work.”
“…I was distracted. I never dreamed that I could throw an arrow without blocking it with a shield.”
“Ahaha. If the shield was hit, it would hurt.”
Because I’ve been tested a few times.
Anyway, this made it to the quarterfinals. I succeeded in getting the qualification for the overall competition.
The way the overall match is held on Friday is simple. The winners of each grade form a team by selecting the finalists from the other grades. Three teams with one winner each and one unchosen team. A total of 4 teams will compete in the quarterfinals with tags.
The MVP can be won when he alone has knocked down a few or saved the team from a crisis. For artifact weapons given to the first-place team, a fair system determines the owner.
After the quarterfinals of Daejeon, the next event was the Magic Festival.
Whoops! This match, Aiden, created fireworks and covered the stadium. There was no third year who had poor performance in the first place, so there was no one to fight against Aiden.
There were strong players in the second year, but there was no way that they could beat Aiden by just one year. If he had to choose, he had a prince and a Rhine Castel, but he felt at a disadvantage because it was compatible with the water property he mainly deals with.
Although there was no way to use it here, Aiden was in a state of being aware of the blue flame.
‘Is the only thing worth arguing with Aiden right now is the 3rd year head of the Magic Department.’
Since it is a ‘Dwan’ of the water attribute, it will rather take advantage of the fire attribute’s compatibility.
However, ‘Denshi Dewan’, the head of the Department of Magic, did not participate in the magic festival this time because he was concentrating on the club. Instead, her colleague, Charlotte Dewan, participated, but she too failed the qualifying round.
I wondered how such a guy could be the leader of the tower, but looking back, Charlotte Dewan is not weak. The main characters are so strong it just seems like that.
While waiting in the waiting room, Noah Park came. As the quarterfinals of Daejeon started immediately after the end of the eighth quarter of the magic festival, it was necessary to stock up on her stamina. Park Noah looked quite tired as she moved her body a little rough.
If I tell Hong Jae-yu about this, will he like it? Still, she managed to get her powers out.
I said to Noah Park, who was sitting next to me.
“you also. Shall we meet in the final like this?”
When Noah Park smiled and said, I shook my head.
“no. I want to withdraw from the quarterfinals.”
“I came up on a whim. It looks like it’s already covered in ugly hair, but it can’t be anymore.”
“What are you talking about. Can you prove your skills?”
Noah Park raised her voice as if this was her job.
“just do it! What did you come here for?”
“Wow. Actually, I don’t want to abstain because of that.”
“then?”
I abstain because I’m afraid of getting my hair pierced.
This is only a superficial reason. It wasn’t even when I was at the bottom of my abilities, and I had enough ability to dry my body. There was no way he could be killed instantly because he had special privileges.
By the way, I had already told Ryu Seo-yeon about the withdrawal of Dalian in the first year. She showed a rather satisfied face when I bought it. She’s telling me to do well in the overall match…?
I looked at Noah Park, who looked as if a question mark had risen above her head.
“Didn’t you collide with a senior from the tower?”
Upon hearing this, Noah Park was startled, as if she had seen a ghost.
“How do you know that…?”
“There are rumors.”
The system said it all. The now active chain quest tower (3) was marked as the last one. If you cleared this, you could activate a new perk.
Noah Park said, looking back at her memories with a serious face.
“It’s a rumor…. I did it quietly.”
When I heard that, I got a little nervous. Wasn’t it just a little bit of her turning towards evil?
“…you didn’t kill him, did you?”
“Kill! Half killed.”
…I think he actually killed only half of his body, not a metaphor when he said it.
“Ehh. Anyway, today I plan to be by Arwell’s side, so concentrate and play well.”
I was thinking of preventing the birth of a sub-quest next to Arwell. Because there was a collision with the tower, there was a high probability of retaliation for Arwell, Park Noah’s traitor. It was a condition for the kidnapping quest to occur.
Park Noah must erase such misconceptions and win the 1st year Dalian to strengthen her power with the injury. It was an elixir anyway, so it was good for me if Noah Park ate it.
Knowing what I meant without explaining, Noah Park expressed her gratitude without refusing my favor.
“okay. Instead, grant me one request.”
Before the match, I got up to say abstain.
“What request?”
Noah Park looked up at me and asked. Of course, there was only one request I could make.
“Live a good life.”
“······uh? oh yeah I will live a good life.”
I nodded, satisfied.
We’ve done well so far, so let’s only go forward with a good attitude.
please!
I watched the class A class 2 match from the audience. Arwell originally said that he would not participate, but he was a solo exhibition, and there were a lot of people who missed out on clubs, so it seems that he was joined as a substitute.
Quang! The balls that Arwell threw hit the gourd mercilessly. It was a miracle that it hadn’t exploded yet.
‘Because he’s a weapon man, his physical abilities are good.’
You just can’t use it in battle. It can be said that the performance as a weapon is converted into the ability value of the human state.
While watching a match with a bruise, I found something annoying. Aspiring heroes, seen with a red border, were sneaking around. He didn’t show any hostility to me, but it meant that he was a potential enemy of mine.
eh. Are you planning on kidnapping after the game is over? Judging by the color of his gym uniform, he was a senior.
I got up to take action before they babble.
“Chihan aspiring hero!”
Then a familiar voice called me from behind. I turned around and saw Beatrice in a red sweatshirt.
“Uh, instructor?”
“You were here…. I’ve been looking for it for days.”
“Me? Call me.”
“Because I’m not talking on the phone.”
Although Beatrice likes events like this, for some reason her expression was not good. He could see that it was bad for him to tell me.
“Do you remember what you said to me before? To avenge my parents…”
Beatrice said with a shaky tail, but that was enough.
‘Drakan Beatrice.’
The Corrupted Hero Scenario is just around the corner.
