I Am Alone EX-Grade Summoner Episode 124

Finals (3)

– Finally, Earth’s greatest festival, the World League, is just moments away from its final match!

– South Korea vs England, England vs South Korea! The ultimate final showdown unfolding in London! Ah, how exciting!

– Indeed… Just as life’s fortunes are unpredictable, it seems the same applies to nations. Who would have thought we’d meet England in the finals?

– It’s known that just advancing to the finals has already earned each player tremendous rewards. Not only that, but there are rumors it greatly benefits national interests as well, right?

– That’s correct. Well, we wouldn’t know the details though. Haha.

Chatter chatter.

In both South Korea and London.

Enormous crowds had gathered in the streets.

“Wooooooah!”

“Baek Jin-woo! You must win!”

“No, losing is fine too, but winning would be even better!”

“Hunkyo, I love you!”

Cheering sticks, pickets with Baek Jin-woo’s photos, Taegeuk mark masks, and so on…

Even mini character versions of the trio Ramba, Pokryong, and Hunkyo could be seen.

– Baek Jin-woo’s proposal, and Rachel’s acceptance! Currently both nations have agreed to a 1-on-1 duel!

– According to Yubak representative Yu Ji-a, in exchange for this, SKY and Red Rose have agreed to form a blood alliance for the next 10 years, right?

– Yes, truly remarkable.

People were amazed.

To accept such an absurd proposal for just that much in return.

No, could that even be called compensation in the first place?

Wouldn’t it actually be better for SKY?

Red Rose is the world’s strongest!

– This is also good evidence of how Rachel views our Baek Jin-woo!

– Now, anyway! The match will begin soon! Both teams’ players! Everyone is entering!

Step, step.

It was the same as other matches.

The captain leads at the front, with the rest of the national team entering in a single file.

“Jin-woo.”

Rachel, who had approached, spoke to Baek Jin-woo.

He instinctively summoned his translator bird.

“Yeah.”

“We’ll be fighting soon, are you well prepared?”

“I am.”

To be honest, he had stayed up all night.

Forget about condition or anything else, he had frantically practiced only Doldoli control until Hunkyo’s permission came through.

And at the end.

– You pass, Master.

He was able to earn that guy’s approval too.

“Baek Jin-woo, I know you’re skilled and I know you’ll become much stronger than me in the future.”

“Suddenly?”

“Yeah, but this time you’d better be prepared.”

“…”

“Because I have no intention of losing.”

Huh.

Making such provocations before a duel?

Baek Jin-woo turned his head and stared intently at her.

A tense expression and resolute eyes, like a general facing an all-out war on the battlefield.

Far from being careless, she seemed to have come fully prepared and determined.

“Anyway, thank you.”

Baek Jin-woo started with words of gratitude.

‘She must have gotten a lot of criticism because of me.’

Not even saying thanks would make him a real trash person.

“…Thank you?”

“Yeah, for accepting this proposal.”

At Baek Jin-woo’s answer, Rachel grinned.

“Then you know what.”

“Hm?”

“That casino incident where you saved me. Can we call that even?”

“I’d be grateful if you did.”

Right.

That incident happened too, didn’t it?

At Rachel’s cheerful response, Baek Jin-woo smiled gently.

“Anyway. Jin-woo.”

They were now in front of the arena entrance.

The moment they entered, a System Message would appear and the dice would start rolling.

“After the league ends, we guild masters should have a dinner meeting, right? Before you return to your homeland.”

“Sounds good.”

Wow.

Before a showdown, even making dinner plans!

Clunk!

Baek Jin-woo forcefully opened the arena door.

And.

“Hey, Rachel.”

He too offered one last word.

“You better be prepared too.”

“…”

“Because I also have no intention of losing.”

Both bit their lips tightly.

Their gazes that had been looking at each other also turned forward again.

‘Now, let’s focus.’

Baek Jin-woo swallowed dry saliva and unsummoned his translator bird.

Then he stepped into the arena.

The finals had begun.

Player selection is random!

However, players who haven’t registered a summoned creature team are automatically eliminated.

[The first match opponent is player ‘Song Yeon-hee’!]

[‘Song Yeon-hee’ has not registered a summoned creature, so she is automatically eliminated!]

Korea too.

[The first match opponent is player ‘Olivia Abernathy’!]

[‘Olivia Abernathy’ has not registered a summoned creature, so she is automatically eliminated!]

England too.

It kept getting pushed back until Baek Jin-woo and Rachel, who had registered summoned creatures, came up.

And.

[The fifth match opponent is player ‘Baek Jin-woo’!]

[The seventh match opponent is player ‘Rachel Rose’!]

Before long, both players were summoned onto the stage.

Swoosh.

As soon as he appeared, Baek Jin-woo raised his hand.

No conversation is needed.

We’ve already talked enough before coming in.

The first thing summoned was an A-grade Wood Elf.

Swaaaa.

The green-glowing spirit began to harbor player paralysis poison.

But at that moment.

Bang!

A single bullet flying from far away.

‘A sniper…!’

Judging by the gunshot sound, it was indeed a B-grade Battle Security Guard as expected.

The damage is weak, but with its long range and accuracy reaching nearly 99.99%, there’s no better summoned creature for eliminating variables.

“Everyone come out.”

Swoosh!

Pokryong, Ramba, Hunkyo, Doldoli.

Four summoned creatures appeared in succession, but they couldn’t block the sniper’s precision shot.

Thwack!

The Wood Elf, with its HP reduced to 0, was helplessly reverse-summoned.

‘She probably used the ‘First Strike’ rune.’

It’s a PVP-exclusive rune that grants first strike advantage in player battles.

Using that rune allows for an unblockable initial strike.

“Pokryong.”

– …!

Pokryong spun his dragon-head staff in a full circle.

Whoooosh!

Flames engulfed the entire space.

Pokryong Arts

Secret technique.

Transform.

The transformation spread the Pokryong flames very thin and wide.

At the same time, it formed a dome shape that surrounded Rachel.

“Hunkyo, I’m counting on you.”

Yes, Master!

Hunkyo bowed his head and leaped forward.

Simultaneously.

Ramba, Pokryong, and Doldoli turned their backs and began to flee.

Whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh!

Of course, Ramba’s stack building wasn’t forgotten either.

The target was Doldoli.

‘From now on.’

I plan to focus solely on making Doldoli carry late game.

‘Ha, as expected.’

Right from the start, Rachel, who had precisely struck the Wood Elf with her Battle Security Guard, let out a sigh of relief.

‘It would have been trouble if I hadn’t prepared.’

Actually, there was no reason for Baek Jin-woo not to use the Wood Elf.

With such an excellent exchange rate against the S-grade Golden Dragon, he’d be a fool not to use it.

Swish.

She also brought out two more summoned creatures.

Golden Dragon, and Baekho.

She positioned the Golden Dragon around her body, and deployed Baekho at the front.

And at that moment.

Whoooosh!

The thinly spread flames began to envelop the entire field of vision.

‘What kind of attack is that?’

It doesn’t look like it deals much damage.

So is it meant to block vision?

“Baekho.”

– Grrr…

“Let’s go.”

– Roar!

Baekho leaped to the left, and Rachel leaped to the right.

As if seeing that movement.

Whoooosh!

The spread flames suddenly began to contract toward Rachel!

Baekho swung his claws trying to sweep away the energy itself, but.

Whoosh!

“Hm?”

The contracting flames avoided Baekho, gathered together, and transformed into a stream of fire.

Then, as if seeking revenge for the earlier precision shot, it fell toward the Battle Security Guard’s head.

“…Huh.”

Rachel made a dumbfounded expression.

She muttered while looking at the Battle Security Guard that was instantly bursting into flames.

“That kind of control is possible?”

Including Phoenix, she had encountered countless fire-attribute summoned creatures, but she could confidently say she had never seen fire manipulated so freely.

‘Indeed, Jinugod.’

Whoosh, whoooosh!

The stream of fire that had devoured the Battle Security Guard now rushed toward Rachel.

But she wasn’t someone who would fall to such an attack.

– Roaaaar!

The Golden Dragon’s afterimage rising from her body swallowed the stream of fire.

Fwoosh!

The stream of fire was instantly suppressed!

‘Where is Jinugod?’

As she narrowed her eyes and looked around, she could see Baek Jin-woo running toward the edge of the stage.

‘Crazy?’

What is he doing right now?

Is he fleeing?

The Player Battle Arena is quite spacious.

But since it’s a wasteland without a single bush, running like that would only get him caught quickly.

In the first place, fleeing beyond visual range is impossible, and she knew the system blocks escape beyond a certain distance.

Moreover.

‘He left Hunkyo alone?’

Shing!

She could see the man drawing his sword and slowly swinging it to the right while taking his stance.

It seemed like he was buying time because of the Wind Fairy, but that wouldn’t be a very good choice.

The idea of buying time with just Hunkyo alone simply doesn’t work.

“Hello, we meet again?”

Rachel smiled broadly.

She had unfinished business with Hunkyo.

Because that Hunkyo had stolen first place from her in the Battle Royal.

“Tear him apart, Baekho!”

– Krheooooong!

In an instant, the giant tiger charged toward Hunkyo.

The moment Hunkyo raised his sword to stab the eyes of the charging beast.

– …!

Swaaaash!

With an afterimage, Baekho’s claws, having dodged the attack, slashed across Hunkyo’s side.

‘Huh.’

Hunkyo was impressed.

Indeed, an S-rank summoned creature?

He withdrew his stabbing sword and forcibly twisted his waist to dodge for now.

Swaaaash!

But that was just the left claw, and soon the right claw struck consecutively, digging in even deeper.

– Heup!

Eventually, with his sword positioned toward his stomach.

Kaaaaaang!

He had no choice but to allow the attack.

Hunkyo’s body floated up into the air with a heavy impact.

‘This is insane.’

Now that he’d clashed with it, he understood.

He could probably manage to buy time against that Baekho, but he couldn’t win.

And if Rachel’s Golden Dragon joined in too?

‘It would become even more difficult.’

“We have a lot to talk about, don’t we?”

Kwaddddddeuk!

The Golden Dragon also began charging toward the floating Hunkyo.

Kaang!

He reflexively swung and struck it away, but the impact felt tremendous again.

A combined attack from two S-rank summoned creatures…!

‘It’s enough to make one’s mind go hazy.’

As the momentum of the two spirits began pressing down on his entire body, he felt suffocated as if he’d entered the deep sea.

However, his Master had said.

To hold out for as much time as possible.

The longer Ramba had to stack up, the higher their chances of winning would become.

But.

Kaang, kaang, kaaaaaang!

The consecutive attacks from Baekho and the Golden Dragon were so fierce that he was barely managing to defend.

That wasn’t all.

Huuuuung!

The Golden Dragon, which had been attacking fiercely, spread wide to surround the area.

– Krwalarararararararara!

It let out a tremendous roar while looking down at Hunkyo.

‘Incredible pressure!’

Just hearing it felt like all the nerves in his body were freezing up.

“To think you’d face the Golden Dragon and Baekho with just one E-rank summoned creature… Even for Jinugod, that’s quite arrogant.”

The Training Instructor that Rachel knew was E-rank.

No matter how much he gained fortuitous encounters, unlocked potential abilities, and was equipped with good runes.

The limits of one’s birth couldn’t be helped.

“Let’s end this now.”

Toward Hunkyo, who was still floating in the air.

Baekho began attacking from the front, while the Golden Dragon struck down from above.
