Episode 30

Chapter 30: Safe Zone Muel (2)

The magic circles that appeared were not just one.

Magic circles filled with geometric shapes glowing in ochre color.

Looking at their form, they weren’t various types of magic.

Moreover, Dohyun could immediately recognize what kind of magic they were just by looking at them.

Of course, it was the power of analysis.

Though Dohyun quickly grasped Hanalin’s magic by looking at it, there was still something puzzling.

‘Stone Spear alone shouldn’t be able to pierce through the Stone Lizard’s hardening, right?’

Since Dohyun had already figured out everything about Stone Lizards and Stone Spear, he naturally knew.

That Stone Spear alone would be insufficient to pierce through the Stone Lizard’s outer shell.

Though it was merely an F-rank monster, hardening was a cost-effective skill, and Stone Spear was magic advantageous for striking rather than penetration.

Therefore, it would be difficult to pierce through the outer shell and hardening that had considerable resistance to impacts. Above all, since Dohyun thought there was no way Hanalin wouldn’t know this, he looked at Hanalin with eyes slightly anticipating what she would do.

Then rock spears bloomed above the magic circles.

Though their tips were pointed, five spears appeared in the air that clearly showed insufficient penetrating power compared to real spears.

However, Hanalin’s magic didn’t end there.

As new magic circles were drawn on the five spears floating in the air and this time colorless, translucent magic circles unfolded, Dohyun could immediately understand Hanalin’s intention.

Low-grade general magic Sharpness.

Realizing it was general magic that made objects sharper and more pointed, Dohyun couldn’t help but nod.

The moment Dohyun acknowledged it, the five spears fell toward the five Stone Lizards charging from the air.

Due to the Stone Lizards’ body structure, they couldn’t look up, so they couldn’t spot the Stone Spears diving down like hawks from the sky, and soon the Stone Spears that fell at high speed struck down toward them.

Swooooosh——

Thud thud thud thud——!

Rock spears struck down into the heads of five Stone Lizards at once, and they were so sharp that they pierced through their heads and remained buried so deep in the ground that the shafts were barely visible, leaving the Stone Lizards no choice but to die instantly.

Hanalin smiled smugly at the magic that instantly killed more than half of the ten monsters, and the Guide Party members were startled by this sight.

“T-this can’t be.”

“The Stone Lizards…”

“…”

Weren’t they the Guide Party that hunted a lot in this place?

To instantly kill five Stone Lizards, which were among the hardest to catch in this vicinity, all at once.

They couldn’t help but be amazed.

Even Cheonseongmin couldn’t continue speaking.

Since it would take them at least 30 minutes to catch five Stone Lizards, they couldn’t help but keenly feel the gap.

As all three couldn’t continue speaking because the difference was so great they couldn’t even gauge it, Jiyuchan stepped forward.

Normally, one would admire or shrink back after seeing Hanalin’s magic, but Jiyuchan didn’t do that.

Rather, Jiyuchan made a considerably annoyed expression, drew his sword, and quickly rushed forward.

“N-no!!”

“The Stone Lizard’s charging power is…!!”

“S-stop him!!”

Seeing Jiyuchan suddenly charging, Bangyuri, the fastest rogue among the Guide Party, ran to stop Jiyuchan, but it was insufficient.

“W-what kind of speed is…!!!”

Though Bangyuri had become a Hunter half a year earlier, she couldn’t even catch the shadow of Jiyuchan who had early discharge in just a week.

Jiyuchan shot out at such speed that he was even faster than the Stone Lizards, and his appearance was like an arrow. While charging, he drew his sword in advance, then applied mana manipulation and swordsmanship to maximize his physical strength before swinging his sword.

No matter how genius they were, weren’t they people who had just entered?

Therefore, they judged it would be difficult to pierce through the outer shell of Stone Lizards, which had the best defense among F-rank monsters, with a sword.

Magic could do it because it had various auxiliary means, but swords really couldn’t.

That’s why they tried to stop him, but seeing Jiyuchan rush out without time to stop him, Bangyuri chased after him while imagining a terrible scene.

The sight of Jiyuchan’s charging attack being blocked by the Stone Lizard’s outer shell and bouncing off like crashing into a dump truck.

Soon, when he reached the front of the Stone Lizard, contrary to the thought that it might turn out like his imagination, Jiyuchan’s sword moved gracefully, cutting off the Stone Lizard’s head as if slicing tofu.

Slash———

Whoosh———!

When he kicked off the ground, the earth exploded like a bomb and Jiyuchan’s body moved as if ignoring inertia, reaching in front of the diagonally running Stone Lizard, and likewise when he swung his sword, he cut off its head like slicing tofu.

Slash—

The concise and even clean sword strike moved as if drawing a line in the air.

Ji Yuchan moved back and forth toward the remaining three Stone Lizards that were following behind, and by moving in an ‘ㄹ’-shaped pattern, he was able to connect his sword strikes toward the heads of all five Stone Lizards.

As a result.

Swish———

The sword rippled with blue light as it drew a line in the air, and the Stone Lizard heads that touched it all fell belatedly as their bodies turned to powder and scattered.

Like Hanalin, Jiyuchan cut down five at a level that could be called almost simultaneous.

The sight of the ten Stone Lizards that had been there just moments ago was nowhere to be found.

“W-what is this…”

“N-no, c-could that be done with a sword??”

“I-I don’t know either.”

Cheonseongmin, who was a warrior, answered Jeongyujin’s words.

Because he couldn’t think of what to say seeing Hanalin and Jiyuchan do so simply what he absolutely couldn’t do.

All three members of the Guide Party were in complete panic.

Since ten had appeared, they had only thought to help.

But not all three of them, just two stepped forward and caught all ten, so they felt a bewilderment of not knowing what to say.

‘This is absolutely ridiculous.’

When the Association called them geniuses, honestly, he had thought how much of a difference could there really be?

He had only thought it meant the Association cherished them, so please take good care of them.

But that wasn’t it.

After hunting in Safe Zone Muel for over half a year, this was his first time seeing people like this.

He prided himself on having seen quite a few talented individuals, but this was his first time seeing geniuses, no, monsters of this caliber.

While Cheonseongmin was gulping nervously.

Dohyun grinned and said.

“I’ll take the next one.”

Cheonseongmin was startled by his sudden words and looked at Dohyun.

Wondering if he meant he would face the next monster that appeared, when Cheonseongmin looked at Dohyun, he could see dust clouds rising in the distance, so far they were barely visible to the naked eye.

Could he really have detected something that far away?

Cheonseongmin looked at Dohyun with disbelief.

Since he had heard from the Association several times that Dohyun was called even more legendary than the previous two, just as he was wondering what Dohyun would be like.

The Stone Lizards had already reached right in front of them.

Wondering if Dohyun would really step forward alone, Cheonseongmin looked at Hanalin and Jiyuchan, but Hanalin was fiddling with her magic staff as if the outcome was obvious without even watching, and Jiyuchan had returned to formation, sheathed his sword, and was watching Dohyun and the Stone Lizards with focused eyes.

As if showing determination not to miss a single detail.

Gulp.

Seeing those two, Cheonseongmin indirectly sensed that Dohyun was extraordinary, and his gaze unconsciously turned toward Dohyun, who grinned and snapped his fingers.

Snap—!

His fingers snapped with a sound, and at that moment Dohyun shot forward like an arrow.

Lightning-fast mana control where you couldn’t even feel when he used mana manipulation techniques, and shocking mana mastery. But even more surprising was Dohyun’s appearance of perfectly controlling his maximized body.

Whoooosh——

If Jiyuchan’s ground kick created an explosion like a grenade going off, when Dohyun kicked the ground, an explosion almost like an anti-tank mine erupted, overturning the earth as Dohyun shot forward with corresponding speed.

Before Cheonseongmin could even be shocked by the speed that was twice as fast as Jiyuchan’s, Dohyun had already reached the Stone Lizard and swung his dagger, causing an amazing light to emanate from the blade.

Didn’t someone once say?

That speed itself becomes power.

But when that speed was combined with strength and mana, what was merely a small dagger shot forth emitting a massive sword energy reminiscent of a crescent moon, and three Stone Lizards standing in a row were cut through entirely, not just their heads but their whole bodies.

But that wasn’t the end. Dohyun moved again toward two Stone Lizards standing in a row, this time sheathing his dagger and drawing his longsword to swing it, producing a sword strike similar to before but slightly different.

Instead of the thin sword strike like a crescent moon from before, one large swing spread out sword energy like a full moon, spinning and simultaneously cutting through both Stone Lizards.

“….”

“….”

“….”

Before the Guide Party could even be surprised, Stone Spears pierced down onto the heads of the remaining Stone Lizards, utilizing Sharpness like Hanalin to hone their sharpness, penetrating their heads and embedding deep into the ground.

Dohyun watched this with a satisfied smile and muttered.

“This should be good enough, right?”

At Dohyun’s words, the Guide Party members were all staring as if about to faint, and they checked Hanalin and Jiyuchan’s reactions.

Honestly, it was such an overwhelming display that they wondered what their reactions would be.

However.

“Sigh, you’ve already mastered that.”

“Tsk, how exactly do you produce that sword energy?”

As if already accustomed to such displays, Hanalin and Jiyuchan were shaking their heads and muttering.

The Guide Party could only click their tongues and gulp at their appearance.

And they thought.

‘…The Association wasn’t exaggerating.’

While the Guide Party was thinking this, Dohyun looked at the message that appeared before him and smiled with satisfaction.

And.

‘I haven’t felt that gaze since leaving the village?’

The gaze he had felt since first entering the Black Gate was no longer detectable, so he didn’t think much of it.

However, as soon as they finished hunting and returned to Safe Zone Muel, the following gaze returned.

Even after returning to the dormitory, the gaze that wouldn’t disappear made Dohyun frown as he secretly looked in one direction.

Then.

‘Watching again?’

The identity of the gaze that had been watching them since they first entered the Black Gate.

Just in case, he had secretly learned a new skill while watching them.

It seemed they were taking him lightly.

‘I can’t just let this slide.’
