16 – Dalian Lesson (2)

Closing the distance, the iron kingdom shrugged its shoulders as it was running.

Formidable power was concentrated in the fist, creating a piercing sound that tore and split the air.

Clean and straight that doesn’t go well with a large body.

I turned my chin while engraving the approaching mass on my retina.

The cheek was grazed with a piece of paper.

A bloody sound rang through my ears.

‘It’s pretty fast… ‘

It was unbelievable speed for a lumpy body.

When I lowered my gaze, the bulging lower body filled up the inside of my calf with muscles that seemed to burst.

Based on that, the muscles spewing out were serving as a driving force to support the strength.

Once again the Iron Kingdom has closed the distance.

He held his breath and continued his attack like a raging wave.

As if not giving even the slightest gap, the continuity that flowed like water stood out.

‘Right to left… Faking the one facing the abdomen. The real uppercut aimed at the chin.’

Innumerable real battles lingered in my head.

Recognizing its movements with its eyes, the smell of threats with its nose, and its trajectory with its skin, it responded to all attacks with minimal movements.

“Hoo-wook…!”

The Iron Kingdom soon showed signs of exhaustion.

Inevitably, there was a gap, and the connection between the attacks was disturbed.

I didn’t miss it and dug inside.

He opened his mouth to the flinching man.

“Stop it.”

“-!!!”

I gave strength to the lower body.

The legs bent like a whip caused a flash-like blow with afterimages.

f*ck-!

A dull impact echoed throughout the arena.

Screams of astonishment erupted from the surroundings.

The head of the Iron Kingdom rolled back and the light in the pupils disappeared.

‘Even though I told you in advance, I couldn’t even respond… ‘

In the moment of disappointment, fire flashed in his eyes.

As if he hadn’t lost his fighting spirit, he managed to balance his body with only his mental strength.

‘Ooh… ‘

It must have been a shock to the point of fainting right away as the brain was shaken, but they overcame it right away without reorganizing.

‘It’s tougher than I thought?’

“Huh!”

He caught his breath and raised his arms high.

Blue mana compressed into his fist.

The imperfect light spread as if it were emitting light.

A wave of power that can be felt.

Spurred the ground with a crushing blow, widening the distance.

-Kwaaang!

An explosion sounded like explosives exploded.

Fist marks were left intact on the floor.

It was so threatening that it could be thought that the skill was used.

“It’s pretty good. Do you think you can even manifest magic?”

“Because it’s the basic knowledge that an Awakener should learn.”

‘Basic knowledge… ‘

There aren’t many people who learn magic control before they’re 20 years old.

The Iron Kingdom wiped his bleeding chin with the back of his hand.

“Why?”

“Hmm?”

“I told you to stop. I heard you clearly. If you hadn’t said that, it would have been your victory.”

Look at this guy?

He could get angry with his pride, but on the contrary, the fact that he calmly asked questions sparked interest.

Or is there some other ulterior motive?

‘To buy time to recover.’

No, he doesn’t seem to have that kind of personality, so he must be genuinely curious.

“Wouldn’t it be fun for you and me to pass out?”

“Um…”

“And other than you and Song Joon-ho, there’s no one I can really fight with. For me, I want to enjoy it even a little more.”

“…I see.”

He nodded his head in understanding.

It is the truth without lies.

Of course, the purpose is to stop the people in Jiye Yoon and classmates from talking nonsense, but…

‘My body is sluggish.’

Someone will be dumbfounded when they hear it, but I was slow to judge objectively.

There will be an aftermath of the body like an idiot.

But there was a bigger problem than that.

A threat to the point where you feel threatened for your life.

In other words, the reason is that the senses have been dulled due to not experiencing proper actual combat.

In my previous life, after ‘Descent of the Demon God’, everything in my life became terrible, so I had to maintain tension all the time just by eating, sleeping and living.

The danger of death lurked everywhere, and a little carelessness led to death.

I had to be able to measure my own strength and deal with any situation.

Those who failed to do so met a terrible end no matter how good their skills were.

On the contrary, no matter how stupid you are, as long as you can survive in some way, you will eventually become stronger.

I was weak, but I became stronger because I lived.

‘But it’s so peaceful here.’

If you want to grow to the level of your previous life, the current state is enough.

But it shouldn’t be like that.

In the end, the only ending would be to be decapitated again by that bastard, Six Demons, No-Face.

That much, the gap between him and me in my previous life was overwhelming.

‘I have to become stronger.’

I had to experience the sense of fighting at the risk of my life as much as possible now that all materials are abundant.

For that, I had to accumulate data by experiencing various battles.

‘If it’s about this guy in front of you… ‘

It should be enough to loosen up your body.

Because it is not easy to meet a stronger punching bag than Song Jun-ho.

I finished my thoughts and flicked my hands.

“What are you staring at blankly? You don’t mean to keep attacking with taijutsu? You know very well that you can’t win with martial arts.”

He was silent, but he nodded his head softly.

“Yeah, unfortunately, I can’t seem to defeat you without using my abilities.”

“If you notice, don’t talk too long and bring it out. Your unique ability.”

“It is.”

From noble mtl dot com

In an instant, blue mana spread with wind pressure enough to obscure the view.

After a short moment, I saw a guy who had grown even bigger than before.

He was clad in full armor that seemed to be made of tin and various alloys.

A furnace was installed on the chest, similar to a blacksmith’s, from which high-temperature flames and steam were gushing out.

Looking at it as a whole, it looks like a ridiculous cosplay, but the momentum it exudes is absolutely nothing to laugh at.

[Iron Kingdom uses Telegraph – Tin Woodman (C+).]

[Mystery dwells in the target.]

[Greatly reduces the power of skills below a certain rank.]

“Tradition?”

“Yes. It’s my pride.”

‘Is the Tin Woodman the Wizard of Oz?’

Awakening abilities are often divided into psychic powers, magic, and martial arts such as martial arts.

It was common for the same ability to evolve into its own uniqueness depending on how much it was polished and polished.

However, from the beginning, there was a kind of rare ability that had excellent effects and power.

A typical case was when records or stories such as history, fairy tales, legends, and myths were handed down and the concept was given to the skill itself.

What Nom showed me is an example.

That lump of tin in front of you will show more power than the similar abilities [Metalization] And [Steelization].

The Iron Kingdom slowly bowed.

Assuming a charging stance like an American football player, he revealed his ugly eyes through the pitches.

“It will be different from now on.”

Bang-! I had the illusion that an iron-clad bull was charging.

‘… Although the speed did not increase.’

I didn’t even give it.

That tin armor imbued with mystery seems to remove the restriction of weight itself.

I gave the ankle a rotation according to the timing.

I passed the charge without damage and inserted a hind kick toward the exposed side.

The perfect blow exploded with clear calculation and distance control.

But as if it meant nothing, he pushed it away and glared at me.

“It’s useless. You can’t harm me with such taijutsu.”

‘Anna, really… ‘

I didn’t get tackled because I looked serious.

Is this a retarded bastard?

‘Why do you keep ending with da, da, da?’

While he pondered for a moment whether he was a friend lacking in savvy, unusual mana flowed through his whole body.

“Take it.”

The iron kingdom opened the lid of the furnace on his chest and flipped it.

With a rattling sound, bright red flames began to boil like living creatures.

A thrill ran up my spine.

[Intuition activates.]

Flame! Flames soared, fan-shaped flames vomited.

It wasn’t just a fire.

Each one contained mysteries, and contained far greater power than normal flame-type abilities.

As if Yonggary was spitting out, saying ‘Veeek!’, The fire started to melt the tiles on the floor.

[Iron Kingdom uses Flame Jet.]

I thought of avoiding it for a moment, but…

‘Why?’

He lifted his leg high.

A small amount of mana was wrapped around it, emitting a blue light.

Bang-!

Slammed the ground and split the approaching flames in half.

The element called the attribute was destroyed by force and faded.

I could see him perplexed through the scattering flames.

“…In one blow? What nonsense…not even a skill-“

“-Don’t be fooled.”

“…!!!”

I arrived in the blink of an eye.

I saw a hardened guy who didn’t know he would appear suddenly.

He kicked his back foot once more towards the side he had just hit.

“…I thought it was useless!?-“

-Paslak.

The Iron Kingdom was speechless.

The dented armor cracked and began to crumble.

The tin plate dropped on the floor faded with a blue afterimage.

I twitched my ears as I saw the guy widening his distance in amazement.

“What did he say? It’s useless?”

“……”

I couldn’t believe it, so I kicked his tongue because he was standing there stupidly.

‘To lose weight… I have to prepare another move right away to respond.’

If it had been a real battle, I would have fallen behind at this point.

‘Is this just about it… ‘

As expected, am I wrong for expecting Class B?

Song Joon-ho was still able to fight, though.

“So this is it? Anything more to show?”

“…Whoa…”

The Iron Kingdom took a deep breath.

Ripples of blue light spread around him.

Intuitively, the output was much larger than before.

‘Ultimate Skill.’

Song Joon-ho’s technique of the same concept as [Black Child].

A secret ability and special move that can reverse an unfavorable charter in one shot.

After a while, a huge ax thrown out of tin was lifted in his hand.

[The Iron Kingdom casts the ultimate skill Advance Ax (C+).]

“Whoop, whoop.”

A rough breath came out of his mouth.

It must have been evidence of overdoing it.

‘Did I use it after taking magical exhaustion into account?’

It must have been prepared for internal injuries when it was not yet properly used.

‘He has guts.’

“Siwoo Choi! Take it! This is my trump card!”

The Iron Kingdom raised its ax high and struck the ground.

Kung-!

The ground began to tremble.

The ground shook as if an earthquake had occurred, showing cracks and roaring here and there.

Gasp-!

“…?”

I lowered my eyes at the feeling of grabbing my ankle.

Puppets covered in tin iron crawled out of the cracks.

One by one, they were gigantic monsters the size of the Iron Kingdom.

A total of 5 dolls held my arms, legs and shoulders and restrained my body with supernatural strength.

“Summon type?”

“Yes. I apologize in advance. I didn’t want to use it because I was cowardly, but there was no choice but this.”

‘What is cowardice… ‘

If you can write, write anything.

Where is the coward and sleeping?

‘Come to think of it, he was called something other than Iron King.’

The Steel Leader.

I thought it was just because I hadn’t seen it in person before, but it seems that I was called that way because of the ability I showed now.

‘If I go later, can I make an army?’

It’s an ultimate skill, so it wouldn’t last long, but it was a good ability that could be used in war.

It was also a time when I thought talent was different.

The Iron Kingdom roared and charged with all its might.

Black flames wrapped around the axe as if all the mana had been put into the blade.

According to that, the doll’s power gradually grew stronger.

A situation of crisis for anyone to see.

Everyone watching seemed to think I had lost, clicking their tongues or laughing.

“It was fine.”

“…What?”

I pulled my hand out of my pocket and grabbed the hilt of the sword at my waist.

“That’s not bad.”

It wasn’t particularly good, though.

It struck like lightning.

A terrifying noise echoed and a circular flash of light filled the arena.

The sword attack that disturbed the vision caused a fierce wind.

Like a storm of swords, the wrathful blow lasted for a short time.

[The swordsman’s ultimate will be activated.]

[This is a swordsmanship that the current body has not mastered!]

It was quiet.

The only thing that was noisy was the calm silence that seemed like a lie.

“…How many times… did you cut it?”

The helmet of the Iron Kingdom split in half.

Blood dripped from his eyes, nose and ears.

He coughed up handfuls of blood and looked at him with bloodshot eyes.

“Well. I’ve lost my senses, so I wrote it down… About 10 times?”

I guess it fits.

Because the sword scars engraved on the floor are about that much.

▶ Negative. It is number 9.

‘Oh really?’

I’m really tired.

In my heyday, it was over 30 times…

The tin dolls he was holding onto began to fall apart.

The neck, chest, legs, etc., Split from the vital parts that are fatal to the human body, causing a bizarre noise.

Thung.

I saw the iron kingdom bent at the knee.

The tin armor he was wearing was scattered on the floor.

The flowing blood soaked his upper body.

Those who see them will think they’re going to die.

“I managed to control my strength. I also missed vital points, so go to a medical center and get a good rest.”

“…Go…Thank you.”

Leaving behind the falling guy, I looked at the knife in his hand.

‘A harpoon is better.’

I saw a worn-out blade that could no longer be used.

Use it, but I think it’s too weak for a knife I bought for a million won.

‘The wrist is still able to withstand a bit because its stats have gone up.’

I roughly put it in the scabbard.

It looks like I’m going to have to find one that can catch me and use it.

[This is a technology introduced for the first time.]

[This is an unregistered skill.]

[Please give a name as the creator.]

Ah. Come to think of it, there was something like this.

‘Well, I’ll just have to build it the same way I did in my previous life.’

I didn’t think much of it.

I don’t care about the name of the technology.

▶… Master. Are you really going to do what you did in your previous life?

‘That’s convenient.’

▶ Master. I think you know very well that I have been faithfully fulfilling the Master’s orders up until now. So this time, by all means, on one of my suggested lists-

‘Cut a lot.’

[Recorded as a lot of cuts.]

[Achievement achieved!]

[Succeeded in creating an original skill!]

[Achieve Platinum Trophy!]

[Points: 50,000 (P)]

▶-……

‘No, why?’

Even the strongest bald man in the neighborhood punches and punches, but simple is the best.
