38 – Class A promotion test (5)

On top of a beautiful tree far from the plaza.

A woman was sitting on a branch.

With dyed blonde hair, two-tone blue hair, and thick friendly makeup.

She was none other than Dangmari, who had been talking to Siwoo Choi an hour ago.

‘Whoa… ‘

She wasn’t wearing a modified school uniform, but rather a jade-colored reinforced suit, and in her hand she was holding a special bow with a high-magnification scope.

Both of them were items with high-tech features that boasted high prices.

To be honest, it wasn’t a good equipment to use in a match against a cadet.

Armed at a level that can be used even on the frontlines where a proper monster appears.

But she thought this was not enough.

‘The opponent must be quite a monster.’

Dang Ma-ri thought of the first time she met Choi Si-woo.

To be honest, she barely tolerated the prospect of peeing.

Indifferent eyes looked at him as if they were penetrating all things, and his small body contained tens of thousands of meanings.

‘… Did you shake hands on purpose?’

I will.

Because even though he knew everything, he was overflowing with a willingness to accept it.

A piece of arrogance that can be taken because it is literally an absolute powerhouse.

However, I couldn’t complain about it.

Because he is a being above the sky.

‘For a moment, it was a sense of intimidation that could be mistaken for the three swordsmen I had seen before.’

Dangmari took out an arrow from his belt and quietly hung it on the bowstring.

She bent on one knee and balanced on her other foot.

Assuming the pose of a typical sniper, she watched her smoke rise to black.

It was quiet.

It was strangely quiet despite the sound of being burned by the flames.

‘… There’s no way I could be beaten like this.’

She thought.

There’s no sign of presence, and I can’t even hear the sound of low breathing.

Even she, who is usually confident in her own hearing, was so silent that she doubted her.

That’s why she almost said it casually.

‘… Did you finish it?’

She immediately covered her mouth.

This is a magic spell.

She, who usually likes movies and dramas, was well aware of the power of these words.

Even those whose flesh was torn and their limbs fell off could come back to life with just one word.

‘Calm down, let’s check our strength first.’

When she turned her sights, she saw Hwang Bo-han, who was lost.

He blinked his eyes as if in surprise. He turned his gaze toward us, perhaps realizing belatedly that it was his own attack.

Dangmari swears inwardly at that appearance.

‘That damn junior bastard.’

He himself is an archer.

That is also a typical long-range position specialized for long-range sniping.

Thus, preoccupying a position is practically the same as losing one’s life, and if caught, it causes a fatal drop in combat power.

‘What if I notice? You damned bear!’

What would he do if Siwoo Choi knew where he was?

Unable to bear it, she shouted into the walkie-talkie in her arms.

“What are you doing! Junior! This is not the end of the opponent. Get ready to attack! I told you from the beginning! I will continue to interfere, so you have to end it!”

-Don’t be funny. Dangmari! I would have said I didn’t agree!-

“Where is the right to veto! It was said directly by the association’s executives. Don’t you know what this means? No matter how great a father you are, you don’t know how much trouble it would be if you were branded by the association. And don’t speak mean things! I’m better than you. Senior!”

-I don’t know that! I participated to defeat Siwoo Choi fairly and squarely! I have no intention of cooperating with a dirty b*tch like you!”

Dangmari gritted his teeth and shook his hands.

‘This stupid man!’

Does anyone know what to do with something mean?

That would hurt his pride. Against such a handsome junior?

‘The Association will not just give you a warning when you show some success!’

She trembled at the thrill of the moment she was angry.

I hurriedly looked away.

Through the smoke, Siwoo Choi was looking straight at him.

He didn’t get any damage, not even a tiny bit of soot.

Dangmari swallowed dry saliva.

I realized that it was too late to say ‘Did I get caught?’.

He already noticed everything when the first arrow flew.

‘… If I had made up my mind, I could have rushed in and put an end to it.’

This was not the only shocking thing.

A small amount of magical power in Siwoo Choi’s hand.

Seeing this, Dangmari naturally felt fed up.

‘Control of power with everything perfectly considered.’

Only the palm of your hand.

That was also a visible phenomenon because the arrow only hit the curtain of mana as much as the explosion range.

In other words, Choi Si-woo perfectly defended his attack by using only the minimum amount of force in a situation where the explosion lasted less than a second.

‘This is really nonsense. Is that really 17 years old? In fact, it turns out that a hero who made a name for himself in his previous life has been reincarnated?’

She was a woman who even thought about the development of common fantasy creatures.

Considering that dealing with mana normally is dozens of times more difficult than using her ability, it was a really ridiculous skill.

‘It’s a real monster.’

When I first heard the explanation from the association, ‘Is that enough?’ I wanted to

When I saw it in person, I thought it was that much.

But it wasn’t.

It was his own failure to go beyond guesswork like that.

Dangmari was determined.

It was a promise to pour out everything to him even if he was criticized and insulted, so that he could understand himself.

“Hwang Bohan junior. We will attack from now on.”

– What? Dangmari! Gibberish-

“-Shut up. I’m already fed up with that knothole of yours. You’re already eliminated in not acknowledging your opponent’s gap!”-

Dang Mari drew the bow over his shoulder.

The arrow split into several strands, and the arrowhead soon turned black.

[Elimination of Darkness]

It was one of the most proficient skills that blocks the opponent’s vision among the five senses and eventually leads to death just by brushing against them.

The fired arrow flew through the air.

But it was strange.

The arrows did not fly aiming for Choi Si-woo, but scattered in all directions.

It’s like a beginner shooting a bow.

But that’s not a mistake.

It was a calculation that took everything into account.

Right after that, Dangmari energized the hand that had shook hands with Siwoo Choi.

A pattern appeared on the back of the hand, and mana began to flow along the circuit.

‘Sorry. Junior.’

This one will hurt a little bit.

* * *

“…Hmm.”

I looked at the back of my hand with a warm feeling.

The crest that looked like a goblin’s mask exuded ominous power.

‘Curse.’

It seems to have mixed a bit of playfulness with its unique ability.

The level of the spell wasn’t high, but it had a very difficult structure to dispel.

I feel a thrill in the moment.

From the place where Dangmari was, several arrows flew.

She knew very well that her marksmanship was as good as that of Ohana, as I had been hit for the first time.

So that’s…

‘A skill activated based on this pattern.’

And maybe the effect…

‘It must be judo.’

Unbelievably frightening to think, the arrow came bent in an unbelievable direction.

The arrowhead was pitch black.

The magic contained at the same time is unusual.

The absurd total amount of mana I felt when I first encountered Dangmari.

A significant amount of it was contained in each arrow, causing formidable destructive power.

In terms of power alone, he was on par with active heroes running around the frontlines.

I lowered my head to avoid the first arrow that rushed in.

Then I twisted her around the waist, and when I was aiming for her side, I lifted her shoulder and hit her, twisting her trajectory.

However, the arrow that had escaped soared into the sky once again, approaching at a faster rate than before.

At the same time, the pattern on the back of the hand became so thick that it gave off heat to the point where it hurt.

‘Doesn’t stop until it hits.’

The reason why that is possible is probably because absurd mana is the fuel.

A skill close to the skill that is possible only because it is literally Dangmari.

A smile formed on my lips without my knowledge.

It was fun.

It was very fun.

‘It was nice to catch him as well.’

You can feel this kind of thrilling dog fun, but you can easily overcome the ulterior motive.

▶ Master. Actually, I was curious… Didn’t you think that there would be other functions besides judo? Weakness or slowdown… Stacks of curses could be dangerous even for a master.

‘It doesn’t matter.’

I can cope with any number of additional maneuvers.

‘And I was sure I wouldn’t have gone that far.’

▶ Questions? With what certainty…

Because I felt it when I looked into Dangmari’s eyes.

The harmony of light green and blue, and finally the red wavelength.

‘Sorry and guilt. And a bit of pity.’

I don’t know specifically why she took this test.

What’s certain is that it’s not your will.

But that doesn’t matter.

Because there are really very few people in this world who can do only what they want.

Those who can do that are those who are qualified to be called a kind of power, whether it’s physical strength, honor, or money.

The decisive reason I held her hand was the determination in her eyes.

‘Determination to fight even if it means getting your hands dirty or feeling unreasonable.’

Those who show that kind of look were the ones you would only see after the Demon War.

A woman with eyes like that would pass my standards in this boring and peaceful time.

▶ Heung. He said it at length, but in the end, he just suited me because he was pretty. Are you saying that?

From noble mtl dot com

‘Kay. What the hell are you talking about?’

These days, the kid is a bit strange.

I know for sure how women treated me in my previous life, but he keeps asking me strange questions.

* * *

An arrow grazed Choi Si-woo’s ear.

Seeing that, Dang Ma-ri clenched his fists.

“It worked!”

As long as you’ve seen blood, [Darkness Evasion] Is activated unconditionally.

Because it is a technology that has squeezed circuits and structures for it.

As expected, his eyes suddenly filled with darkness.

The pupil(瞳孔) and the iris(虹彩) turn black, and the important information system called vision is broken.

‘No matter how monster you are, if you lose sight, the most important of the five senses, your vigor will be greatly shaken.’

She turned on the walkie-talkie again.

Because now is a golden opportunity.

“Hwangbohan junior! What are you engrossed in! Attack right away! I’m adjusting the arrow’s trajectory, so it won’t reach you!”

-‘I would have said! I didn’t come here to beat him in this way. If you’re going to do it, do as you please!’-

Is that still the sound?

‘Damn it.’

Maybe it’s because he’s a young boy who grew up under the King.

He didn’t know the difference between fighting and sparring.

Now this is not a game with a lot of spectators watching.

In other words, it is an arena where you have to win no matter what you do.

In the end, she gave up and decided to put an end to her with her own hands.

She put her magical energy into the back of her hand.

A large amount of mana was transmitted to the flying arrow with a gurgling sound.

The black color gradually got stronger and it was completely pitch-black.

A power that can no longer be called an arrow.

In fact, each one was no different from a small missile.

* * *

▶ Master. Can you calculate the trajectory and target distance? The power has been increased and it has become faster.

‘No need to? I can do this much by myself.’

I took a step back.

Even though the eyes were full of darkness, I could see them very clearly.

[Dark Resistance (Lv.5) Is active.]

‘It’s good that you brought it to Yoon Ji-ye.’

I never thought it would be used like this.

When he raised his head, a total of 15 arrows broke and entered at the same time.

‘If I hold that thing with my hand, my skill level will go up a lot, right?’

Controlling her breathing, she tightened her grip.

[Petrified skin (Lv.2) Is activated.]

[The caster’s will is delivered. Adjust the amount of magic consumed and the form.]

There wasn’t an excessive amount of rocks sticking out as usual.

A small amount of mana was poured onto the stone that wrapped around his hand.

‘Now!’

She swung her hand straight into the air.

Perfect distance calculation with precise timing.

As if to prove that, all 15 arrows were grasped in his hands.

[The skill level of Petrified Skin (Lv. 2) Is greatly increased.]

‘Hmm. It doesn’t explode right away.’

I turned my head and looked at the place where Dangmari was.

Locations more than 1.5Km away.

She opened her mouth and looked at her in disbelief.

I tightened her grip.

He brushed her palms, completely crushing even the magic power contained in her arrows.

“So, what are you doing?”

Looking in front of her, I saw Hwang Bo Han swallowing her dry saliva.

The guy gritted his teeth and continued.

“I like this…”

“It’s noisy. If you’re going to attack, come on. Or, is this really the end? In that case, we should have attacked together. Then it would be more fun.”

“I won’t do such a cowardly thing. I only use my own strength…!”

“Yes, I know.”

She flicked her finger at him.

“Show me. He’s the king’s son. Use what you’ve learned.”

“You are so arrogant. But that’s good. It looks like the woman’s attack is over, so I’ll show you my true worth the way you want! And I’ll prove it. The world doesn’t work the way you think!”

While waiting while picking her ears, Hwang Bo-han placed her hand on top of her own heart and held it as it was.

Hmm? What.

‘Isn’t that an ‘ultimate skill’?

“…!”

For a moment, I felt a chilly feeling.

The mana heart, which had been beating vigorously, gradually slowed down.

The whole area is twisted.

The film, like a tent, gradually spread out and began to form a circle centered on him.

“Look, Siwoo Choi! This is my secret!”

[Hwang Bo-han activates Time of the Beasts (???).]

In an instant, the surroundings became dark.

A short time of less than one second.

A completely different place was unfolding around me.

A place full of dry sand and dirt without a single tree.

The bones of huge beasts were forming tombs everywhere.

This… No way?

I slowly took my left hand out of my pocket, which I had never taken out immediately after the match.
