I Am Alone EX-Grade Summoner Episode 200

New Family Member

Kang Ji-ho, who had experienced Aso’s Ilseum Cheonji.

That was just the beginning.

“Wow… I filmed that Pokryong doing a flame show, you know? I knew it was amazing, but… seeing it right in front of my eyes, wow.”

Song Yeon-hee exclaimed in admiration.

“That huge giant… melted away the moment it barely grazed Pokryong’s flames. It’s insane, really.”

She had even tried fighting one of the giants just in case.

As expected.

It was incredibly sturdy.

It wasn’t the boss of the 40th Floor of the Tower of Trials for nothing.

But?

When Pokryong burns it thoroughly, it just disappears.

Truly overwhelming firepower!

“The skill, True Predation. This is really overpowered.”

“Right. How many stacks has he accumulated?”

“…Probably an incredible amount? It seems like he regularly goes to dungeon cities.”

“Why don’t I have such an overpowered skill!”

Of course, the guild members knew.

That even if Baek Jin-woo didn’t use EX-grade and fought them with regular summons, he would overwhelm them with control.

Still, being envious was being envious.

A skill that permanently makes you stronger!

“The combination of Hunkyo, Ramba, Jakgeo, and Dampir is also incredible.”

“That’s just a complete package. Isn’t it a combination that can’t lose anywhere?”

“Jakgeo and Dampir are completely sturdy. From the moment Ramba’s stacks from eating cream bread start transferring to Hunkyo, the dungeon becomes incredibly easy, right?”

“Of course, he doesn’t make it easy to clear…”

The downside of teams that include Hunkyo!

Hunkyo conducts training inside the dungeon.

He pushes them just enough that they won’t die.

When they absolutely can’t break through with their own power, he helps them out little by little.

“I want Pokryong too…”

“Or Aso!”

“Hunkyo is tough!”

As a result, Pokryong and Aso’s popularity skyrocketed.

Especially Aso.

“Aso is really overpowered. No matter what the giant does, it can’t hit him. Windless Trace and Ilseum Cheonji are overpowered, but… the occasional Pacheon Singong is insane too.”

Guild members who trembled with excitement every time they came out, listing praises for the summons.

Baek Jin-woo nodded his head.

Yeah.

Of course.

Who raised them?

On the other hand, the more the guild members used them, the more they felt chills beyond awe.

‘No matter how you look at it, this isn’t just overpowered.’

‘EX-grade is… really insane. Well, even S-grade is insurmountable, but… EX-grade is.’

‘If just one of them went berserk right now, wouldn’t it be the apocalypse? They seem scarier than nuclear weapons.’

It was actually true.

If Pokryong got angry and kept unleashing Pokryong Art: Annihilation on Earth?

Wouldn’t the seas evaporate and the whole world turn into a fiery hell?

All summons touched by those flames would melt away, and the stacks would accumulate even more.

Also?

If Aso kept using Ilseum Cheonji on Earth?

Heaven and earth might literally split apart.

‘Thank goodness. The kids are good kids.’

‘It’s fortunate that Guildmaster’s personality isn’t rough around the edges.’

‘He really brings disaster wherever he goes.’

Anyway.

With Baek Jin-woo’s help, the SKY Guild members also easily cleared through the Tower of Trials one after another.

This was Pokryong who had knocked out Asmodeus, the 60th Floor boss that was about 10 times harder than the original Tower of Trials, in one hit.

The 50th Floor boss?

Whoosh!

The current Pokryong could melt it with a tiny spark!

While clearing them one by one like this.

“G-Guildmaster!”

Clatter!

Someone opened the door and came out bouncing excitedly.

“Guildmasterrrrrr!”

It was Song Yeon-hee.

“What.”

Baek Jin-woo was flustered.

Why.

What’s going on!

Thud thud thud!

The excited girl ran toward Baek Jin-woo and hugged him tightly.

And then.

“It came out! It came out!”

She let out a roar of joy toward the sky…

Wait, this.

Feels like déjà vu…

Didn’t this happen before?

“Don’t tell me, you.”

“Yes, that’s right! Guaranteed Summon Scroll! I got that! Just like last time! And it’s A-grade too!”

Oh shit!

Baek Jin-woo’s pupils dilated instantly.

The summon scroll Baek Jin-woo needed most at this point!

Ah.

Song Yeon-hee was indeed our guild’s lucky charm.

No, why is her luck so good?

This won’t do.

The next S-grade summon that comes out should probably be Song Yeon-hee’s.

All guild members know.

[Guaranteed Summon Scroll]

[Grade: A-grade]

[You can guaranteed summon any desired A-grade summon.]

The fact that Baek Jin-woo wants this brilliant summon scroll.

Look at that.

His smile is already reaching his ears, isn’t it?

“Wow.”

“Song Yeon-hee did great!”

“You’re always the one making Guildmaster smile!”

“How do you pull that off again… How good is your luck?”

“Damn, I was going to draw that one…”

Someone congratulated, while someone else felt disappointed.

Baek Jin-woo had promised to give S-grade summoned creatures drawn from the World League to guild members, and Song Yeon-hee had drawn and offered something like that…

A justification had been created, a justification!

“First.”

Baek Jin-woo nodded as he received the item from Song Yeon-hee.

“Everyone finish up to the 50th floor first. I’ll open this after that.”

Now.

It was time to prepare to welcome a new family member.

Mayeo.

The setting was that it was a pet cat raised among the world’s worst witches.

Like the saying “even a dog at a village school can recite poetry after three years,” that village school dog was exactly Mayeo.

Therefore.

This one also used magic.

And extremely well at that.

Even its mana was infinite.

The setting was that the witches had modified it as an experimental subject to infinitely draw upon the energy existing in nature!

If Hunggyo taught it properly, wouldn’t it be able to go toe-to-toe with Rachel’s Great Wizard?

No, it would be even better than that.

The Great Wizard had penalties, but this one didn’t.

That’s why it had been patched.

“Phew.”

I would finally see it.

Our Mayeo.

About three days had passed.

And.

All SKY Guild members.

Tower of Trials 50th Floor clear complete!

Everyone had smoothly joined the assault team.

Practically speaking, it would be ridiculous if they couldn’t do it.

A staff member stationed at headquarters asked.

“Um, Baek Jin-woo sir.”

“Yes.”

“By any chance, will you be setting security on the clear news?”

“You’re asking if it’s okay to release it as an article?”

“That’s right. Media outlets keep contacting headquarters.”

“Well, it doesn’t matter.”

Hiding things was now over.

It didn’t matter if even ants underground knew.

Who was going to stop Pokryong and Aso now!

“Please widely announce that our South Korea has also completed preparations for 14 assault team members.”

“Th-thank you!”

The currently revealed assault team members numbered 27.

United States 10.

Japan 9.

England 8.

Now South Korea’s 14 members would be added to that.

A total of 41 people.

The remaining nine spots?

It was fine whether they came or not.

But it would probably be difficult for a while, wouldn’t it?

If someone cleared the 50th floor on their own without help?

That would prove their genius in its own way, so he was thinking of helping them.

Talent was precious regardless of nationality.

“Alright, now I’ll draw it.”

Swish.

Baek Jin-woo took out the summoning scroll.

“Oh, is the Mayeo we’ve only heard about finally coming out?”

“Is Mayeo also EX-grade?”

“It was originally A-grade, but now it’ll come out as EX-grade.”

“Wow.”

“What kind of overpowered summoned creature will it be this time.”

Rather, the guild members were more excited.

Though they knew all of Baek Jin-woo’s circumstances, they could never reveal it to outsiders.

Because of the contract.

Riiip!

When he boldly tore the summoning scroll, the same pattern of effects as existing guaranteed summoning scrolls appeared.

[Using ‘Guaranteed Summoning Scroll’ (A-grade)!]

[Player ‘Baek Jin-woo’ selects a summoned creature!]

Whoooosh!

Countless summoned creature images made of cards spread across his vision, and Baek Jin-woo closed his eyes and imprinted one summoned creature in his mind.

[‘Mayeo’ (EX-grade)]

Yes.

This is it.

Come out quickly, our village school cat!

Baek Jin-woo grabbed the card without delay.

[Player ‘Baek Jin-woo’ has acquired summoned creature ‘Mayeo’ (EX-grade)!]

– Meow?

From within the pure white light, a small cat walked out.

“Kyaa!”

“What’s with that fur!”

“It’s so cute!”

“That’s… a summoned creature?”

However.

Strangely, the cat walked on two legs.

It was also wearing a witch’s hat.

And even had a staff…

– Hello-nya!

“Gasp!”

“The, the cat is talking?”

Baek Jin-woo was also startled.

So Mayeo could talk too.

Unlike Jakgeo or Doldoli who weren’t human, he thought it wouldn’t be able to speak.

Was it because it was a cat-person race?

– Talk? That’s basic-mya! Huh? Here it is-nya! Nice to meet you! The master is Jinugod, right?

“Yeah, not Jinugod anymore, now it’s Jin-woo.”

– That’s fine! I can just call you master-ong!

This.

Was a bit hard to get used to.

But I should still check the status window, right?

[Summoned Creature: Mayeo]

[Race: Cat-person Tribe]

[Grade: EX-Grade (Isolation Judgment)]

– Isolated due to balance-breaking elements discovered in specific situations.

[Level: 1]

[Possessed Stats]

Strength: 1, Intelligence: 1, Stamina: 1, Agility: 1

HP: 1,000, MP: ∞

Critical Hit Rate: 20%

Critical Hit Damage: 20%

[Possessed Skills]

– Infinite Mana: Continuously draws mana from nature.

– Thousand Years of Magic: A cat raised with a witch for a thousand years uses the witch’s magic according to the situation.

‘Wow.’

The infinite MP display is always amazing to see.

In Mayeo’s case, it got patched before even unlocking its potential abilities.

So I don’t even know what abilities it might unlock, and what does that mean?

It means it’s already overpowered even before unlocking.

– Mayeo! So cute!

– Mayeo! Does blood taste good?

Aso and Dampir bounce over and hug Mayeo.

– Eek! What’s this-meow!

Mayeo cried out as if startled, but there’s nothing to be done.

Aso’s grip strength is beyond imagination.

She smiled.

– Don’t worry. Dampir will suck out the bad blood for you.

– G-get away! How dare a mere vampire! To a witch!

Hey there.

You’re not a witch though…

You’re a cat raised by a witch.

– Hmm.

Hunkyo also stroked his chin while looking at Mayeo.

– I can definitely see the potential abilities, Master.

“Really?”

– Yes, once unlocked, magic cooldowns will be greatly reduced. It’s a perfect match with the infinite mana skill.

“Oh, ooh.”

With infinite mana, pouring out magic without cooldowns?

Then it’ll be even more overpowered than now.

– And look over there.

“Hm?”

– Doesn’t Dampir really like Mayeo? Why would that be?

Hmm.

Huh?

Ah!

Baek Jin-woo clapped his hands.

Actually, Dampir and Mayeo had never met before.

Because Dampir and Jakgeo got patched, and Mayeo was summoned after that.

So I hadn’t thought about using them together.

– That’s right. Dampir’s skill actually fits perfectly with Mayeo rather than Jakgeo.

Dampir’s skill.

Drain: Uses others’ MP as a source to heal both the target and oneself.

I could use Drain on Jakgeo too, but using it on Mayeo would be even more extreme.

Because Mayeo has infinite MP!

It could become a complete zombie.

‘Wow.’

A tank that pours out infinite magic…

Now really, no one could stop it, right?

Okay.

For now, I’ll focus on raising only Mayeo.

I need to prepare runes and level it up too.

One month remains until the World League.

Following Hong Ari’s pride in wanting to show their power without Baek Jin-woo this time, all the guild members entered special training.

And.

– Master!

Runde walked into the rear training ground.

– Finally! My masterpiece crafting skill has reached level 4.

“Oh, really?”

Already?

Isn’t everyone running too hard?

Why is the development speed so fast?

– It’s all thanks to Master! I’ve been swinging the hammer non-stop without any rest. I’ve made samples one by one, so take a good look.

“Let me see?”

This is Baek Jin-woo’s first time reaching level 4 too.

So from here on.

I need to carefully examine the rune conditions and see if there are any summoned creatures I can apply them to.

[This is the list of masterpieces you can craft.]

[Sprint (Rare), Crush (Rare), Bind (Rare), Divine Punishment (Rare), Soul Destruction (Unique)]

Ooh, as expected.

These are all runes I’m seeing for the first time.

Looking at them, the materials are outrageous.

And.

“Now I can use light and dark essences?”

– That’s right, Master! I can freely use what Master has stockpiled to make them.

“Nice.”

Good.

The essences Baek Jin-woo has currently collected?

Dark Essence: 2,580

Light Essence: 2,565

Indeed.

I did well not selling them and collecting them instead.

I don’t know how high this masterpiece crafting skill level will go, but I should keep collecting them.

‘Hmm, first Sprint.’

I picked up the rune Runde brought.

[Rune]

[Grade: Supreme (Rare)]

– Limited to 100 worldwide.

[Set Effect: Sprint]

– When 6 are equipped, movement speed increases by 300%.

– When flying, movement speed increases by an additional 200%.

[Level: 1]

[Stat Increase]

Intelligence +12%, Intelligence +30, Agility +12%, Agility +30

Oh.

I can tell exactly whose this is just by looking.

‘It’s the Sky Wyvern’s.’

An additional 500% movement speed increase when flying…

It’s really going to be incredibly fast, isn’t it?

“For now, make several Sprint runes. I’ll give them as gifts to the guild members, one set each.”

– Understood, Master!

The Sky Wyvern is now the standard summoned creature for transportation.

All players worldwide use them.

Because of this, their price has skyrocketed too.

‘And Crush.’

Crush was exactly a rune for extreme damage dealing.

You get the penalty of reducing maximum HP by half, but your damage increases fivefold.

‘Wait, hold on.’

This would suit our Mayeo perfectly, wouldn’t it?

Mayeo is practically invincible anyway when the Dampir uses Drain on it.

Baek Jin-woo continued examining the status window.

Binding was a rune that maximized the efficiency of CC-type summoned creatures, and Divine Punishment was a rune that added lightning attribute bonus damage.

“In the case of Divine Punishment, it would suit Song Yeon-hee well.”

– Shall I make a set?

“Yeah, give it as a gift.”

Song Yeon-hee’s dolls.

When Fire Golem (B-rank), Water Golem (B-rank), Mokrui (B-rank), Geumrui (B-rank), and Earth Golem (B-rank) combine, they deal lightning attribute damage.

If equipped on just one of those dolls, it would bring quite good effects.

‘And finally.’

The long-awaited Unique!

[Rune]

[Grade: Supreme (Unique)]

– Limited to 10 worldwide.

[Set Effect: Soul Annihilation]

– When 6 pieces equipped: HP reduced by 50%, skill damage increased by 1,000%.

– 2 additional stat options

[Level: Max]

[Stat Increase]

Strength +12%, Intelligence +12%, Vitality +12%, Agility +12%, Critical Hit Rate +10%, Critical Hit Damage +20%

“Oh.”

Nice.

It seems like an upgraded version of the Crush rune, and as expected, the materials were the same.

If you combine three Crush runes, a Soul Annihilation rune is born.

In other words?

This is exactly Mayeo’s graduation rune!

It was a jackpot.

“Runde.”

– Do you like it?

“Yeah, let’s prioritize making this Soul Annihilation rune set first.”

– Order received.

“Are the materials sufficient?”

– I’ll check the Crush rune materials, and if insufficient, I’ll request them from Baek A-jin.

“Good, good.”

Runde is now also part of 「Rune Eclat」.

The one he communicates with most is Baek A-jin.

‘Then.’

Should I just equip the runes and go run some dungeons?
