All Master Who Regressed to Bronze Episode 092
Above the sparring arena with clear traces of burning and cutting.
Though it was far too damaged to be used as a sparring arena, there was no way to find a better arena right now, so the two decided to use the same arena that had just been used for the match between Geom-wang and Yeom-wang.
On the sparring arena that was as huge as a decent gymnasium, befitting a Player arena, Inho smiled toward Shin Hyeok.
“First, let me check. I need to know whether you’re really in full condition or not.”
“Do as you please.”
“…Alright.”
Inho was thorough.
He wouldn’t overlook even the possibility that Shin Hyeok might be acting to gain an advantageous position despite being in perfect condition.
That’s why he didn’t hide his actions even though he knew they would be evaluated as petty or underhanded.
But Shin Hyeok boldly extended his arm instead.
His wrist.
After checking his condition by placing two fingers on that spot, which was optimal for observing the opponent’s mana load and current state, Inho nodded and stepped back.
‘About 60% based on full condition. I’m around 40%. With this much difference, I should be able to win without much trouble.’
Taking someone’s pulse at the wrist doesn’t allow you to know all their information.
But the amount of energy the opponent currently possessed.
And roughly calculating their current stamina through their pulse wasn’t difficult for Inho, who was from Heavenly Realm.
The result he derived was 60% and 40%.
However, here 60% was 60% by Shin Hyeok’s standards, and 40% was 40% by Inho’s standards.
Considering the stat difference that existed between Shin Hyeok and Inho, this difference could be considered almost nonexistent.
No, perhaps Inho might even have a slight advantage.
‘Of course, I have no intention of being careless. This arrogant nephew is a monster who handles three types of energy: mana, magic power, and sacred power.’
Even so, Inho wasn’t careless at all.
Shin Hyeok was just one of his unremarkable nephews to him.
The nephew born to his foolish younger brother who had stupidly married some worthless woman and fallen out of their father’s favor.
Like a nephew raised under such a foolish father, his nephew had grown up to be splendidly pathetic.
His school years were miserable, and his Player talent was rock bottom.
Of course, Inho had intermittently used people to destroy Shin Hyeok’s social relationships and repeatedly tied up and released his father’s financial resources to prevent him from obtaining proper elixirs and such.
That nephew had changed.
The pleasant rebellion of his nephew, who had changed exactly a few days before awakening as a Player, was not pleasant at all for Inho.
Before he knew it, Shin Hyeok had instantly absorbed all attention and interest and became a monster.
A nephew who had grown so much that even Inho couldn’t treat him carelessly.
When facing him, there could be no carelessness.
Rather, when his tension was even higher than when facing Geom-wang Lee Hoseok and his wariness had reached its peak.
“If you’re a loser of the past era, then act like a loser and become a sacrifice obediently.”
“…What?”
“Anyway, the cameras are far away so the sound won’t be picked up, so I’ll speak frankly. Have a taste of your nephew’s spicy unfilial punch.”
“…How dare you!”
Shin Hyeok boldly declared to Inho.
A loser of the past era.
An insult that Inho couldn’t tolerate.
“Take back those words!”
“I’d like to say take back- but since it’s the truth, I don’t really feel like taking it back. I’ll punch a donut hole through your chest, so come at me.”
“…Fine, I’ll show you why I’m called Yeom-wang.”
“Even so, aren’t you just a commoner who gets beaten by lava?”
“…Let’s see how long you can keep running that light mouth of yours.”
A series of sharp, cutting remarks that were hard to believe came from a conversation between uncle and nephew.
Of course, since Shin Hyeok was in a position of grabbing the back of the neck and beating him down, Inho no longer responded with words.
Whoooosh!
Red flames enveloped Inho’s entire body.
They transformed into a mage’s robe.
It was Inho’s exclusive equipment, the Robe of Flames.
Having affinity and enhancement effects for flames, it was one of the things that symbolized Inho.
Since it was no different from revealing his will to go all out, Shin Hyeok also stopped his provocations and equipped his gear.
Swooosh!
The Armor of Absorption covered Shin Hyeok’s entire body.
Grip!
He grasped the Arcane Spear and holy sword.
-Caw!
Finally, he summoned Kkamak and placed it on his shoulder, completing his preparations.
As soon as both finished their preparations, the two began unleashing fierce attacks toward each other.
“Fire Field.”
Inho started first.
Fire Field.
One of the field-type spells among A-rank magic, it was one of Inho’s specialties.
By turning the surroundings into a sea of fire to create a battlefield advantageous to himself, Inho was already halfway to victory in battle with just this one skill.
But Inho’s attack didn’t end there.
“Come, spirits of fire.”
Whoooosh!
Fire spirits began to be summoned using the massive flames generated from Fire Field as a medium.
With the appearance of a spirit army composed of low, mid, and high-rank spirits, Inho’s spirits began spitting flames toward Shin Hyeok.
Kwaaaaang!
The field effect of Fire Field.
The massive mana that Inho possessed.
The synergy created when these two combined was certainly tremendous.
Not to mention the high-rank ones, even the fireballs spat out by mid and low-rank spirits had considerable power.
Slash! Kwaaaaang!
Shin Hyeok calmly advanced while cutting through and piercing the endlessly flying fireballs.
“Kkamak. Feather Storm.”
-Caw!
Papapapapapak!
The fireballs were attacks close to area attacks.
For that, Shin Hyeok also had no choice but to deploy attacks similarly close to area attacks.
And what was useful there was precisely Kkamak’s Feather Storm.
The feather storm swept through, pushing away the fireballs or twisting their direction.
In terms of power itself, Feather Storm was naturally bound to be inferior, but it was possible thanks to Kkamak’s power, which had become much stronger after evolving into a Black Gold Crow and awakening its metal power.
Thwakakakakak!
Fireballs falling right beside him exploded with rough blasts and scattered around, but Shin Hyeok didn’t even blink and advanced like a crazy bulldozer.
Anyway, with this level of power, it would be difficult to overcome the three walls of the Armor of Absorption, automatic defense system, and Shin Hyeok’s body.
No matter how much of Inho he was, to deal proper damage to Shin Hyeok, he would have to land attacks close to direct hits.
Knowing this well, Shin Hyeok focused on closing the distance with Inho, and seeing this, Inho frowned as if displeased and smoothly retreated.
Whoosh!
Fire Walk.
The flames that rose from where Inho had passed naturally blocked vision and hindered advancement.
Since Inho had plenty of various support methods like a mage, it wasn’t easy to approach him, but-
‘It’s not difficult.’
For Shin Hyeok, who had experienced Challenger-level games countless times, this level of interference was something he had experienced to the point of boredom.
Since there were plenty of people with defensive means that would make Inho’s level look cute, Shin Hyeok didn’t rush and acted calmly.
“Is it okay to be so leisurely? Your insides will gradually cook in my flames, you know?”
“Thank you for your concern. I’ll make sure it doesn’t hurt when I punch a hole through your chest later.”
“…You haven’t been beaten enough yet.”
When Shin Hyeok couldn’t approach well and only circled around, Inho tried throwing out a casual remark, but he couldn’t even break even and had to retreat.
From then on, a tedious time continued.
Kwaaaaaaaang!!!
Inho poured out attacks to prevent Shin Hyeok from approaching.
Tadadadadak!
Shin Hyeok somehow advanced little by little, closing the distance.
A probing battle that continued as they revealed each other’s cards one by one.
That probing battle soon came to an end.
“Invisible Hand.”
Having confirmed Inho’s cards to some extent, Shin Hyeok took out Admiral Chungmu’s bow from his inventory as if there was nothing more to see, grasping it with his trait: Invisible Hand.
“Gigantification, Compression, Sure Shot, Concentrated Fire, Clear Mind.”
He used the five skills inherent in Admiral Chungmu’s bow.
A terrifyingly large amount of mana was sucked in, and a momentary feeling of exhaustion rushed over him, but he could endure it thanks to the increased efficiency from Beolmosesu.
Additionally, the mana circuit provided extra support, and since he operated Taeguk Divine Art to its extreme, his depleted mana quickly refilled.
With preparations complete, Shin Hyeok immediately pulled the bowstring.
Kadeudeudeudeudeuk!
The bowstring pulled to its limit.
A single great arrow placed on that bowstring precisely aimed at Inho.
This bow.
The moment Inho’s face hardened as he instantly sensed how much power was contained in this arrow.
Kwaaaaaaaaa!
The great arrow that left the bowstring rushed toward Inho.
Seeing the great arrow flying through space like a beam of light, Inho waved the staff in his hand and quickly chanted magic.
“Fire Wall, Fire Wall, Fire Wall.”
It started with a triple-layered Fire Wall.
Since the surroundings were already a sea of fire thanks to Fire Field, mana consumption was extremely reduced, and this was possible thanks to the drastically increased magic chanting speed.
Of course, Inho’s abilities were also excellent.
The massive flame wall created this way was as thick as a fortress wall, but—
Ppeoeoeoeoeoeng!!!
“…Kuk!”
Even that was merely a moment’s delay.
The scene of the triple-layered Fire Wall being pierced in one blow and exploding, scattering sparks around, was like a scene from beautiful fireworks, but at least not for Inho.
Swaeeeeeeek!
The speed of the great arrow flying while compressing and recompressing the distance that Inho had actively created barely decreased.
Eventually, Inho began to pull out the cards he had been saving.
“Blessing of the Fire Spirit. Blessing of Flames. Absolute Fire Shield.”
A barrier made of true flame created by raising affinity with fire to the extreme through the Blessing of the Fire Spirit and Blessing of Flames.
Chijijijijik!
Indeed, the true flame was remarkable.
The great arrow that touched the true flame barrier melted away like snow passing over fire.
It was only for a moment that Inho smiled contentedly while looking at the true flame barrier that remained perfectly fine even after blocking the deadly attack.
Kugugugugugugugu!
“…What?”
Raising his head to the darkened sky, he could see it.
“…Why is a turtle ship coming out here?”
A turtle ship falling toward him, dragon head first.
The heavy weight of dozens of tons was itself no different from magic.
“This is a restaurant that even Wushen tasted and left. Uncle, you should have a taste too. It’s specially free with a family discount, so don’t worry about money.”
“…You!”
The moment Inho’s face contorted at the sight of Shin Hyeok riding on top of that turtle ship, looking down at him with an expressionless face.
Kwaaaaaaaaaaang!!!
A restaurant even Wushen acknowledged.
Shin Hyeok’s turtle ship, which even had a certification mark from Goguryeo Subaekdo, struck down on Inho.
