Episode 105
Mana Emission.
The power that allowed Sir Isra to dominate the battlefield even with lacking specs.
It’s a skill that symbolizes B-rank warrior-type Hunters.
But why.
Did I get it?
“It’s Heavenly Martial Body.”
Don’t just brush it off like 1+1 = 2 is obvious.
You should give me an explanation.
“Hmm. You should know that Heavenly Martial Body can learn all martial arts.”
It’s even mentioned in the skill description.
That’s also why I can learn Imperial Swordsmanship.
Since there are no warrior-type skill restrictions, I can receive instruction from Sir Isra.
“You already know the answer.”
“There are no restrictions. It’s not like I’m becoming a warrior-type.”
“Don’t think by drawing unnecessary lines.”
Sir Isra’s words hit me like a blow to the back of the head.
Drawing lines, he said.
That’s right.
Come to think of it, my abilities had already broken many boundaries.
Creating non-existent undead one after another.
Information about new undead even decorated a page of the Akashic Records.
The idea that I didn’t need to think within frameworks really resonated with me.
“Thank you, Sir Isra.”
“Haha. It seems you’ve gained enlightenment.”
Mana Emission.
I had acquired an unexpected opportunity.
“Next is Miss Yeon-du’s turn.”
“Oh. Finally!”
“Miss Yeon-du will train in the same swordsmanship as my lord.”
Imperial Swordsmanship?
When I looked surprised, Sir Isra nodded.
“Miss Yeon-du’s talent is considerable. Ordinary swordsmanship cannot fully bring out that brilliance.”
He had evaluated her as quite good during sparring too.
I didn’t know she was skilled enough for him to teach Imperial Swordsmanship.
“Is it okay to just teach it to anyone?”
Isn’t the imperial knight order’s exclusive swordsmanship forbidden from being taken outside?
“It’s not like there’s an empire in your world.”
“True.”
“And Miss Yeon-du is my lord’s acquaintance. She’s not just anyone, so it’s fine.”
I could treat her like a stranger though.
Since the landlord has been taking care of me, let’s think of this as repaying that debt.
The training that started in the morning continued until the sun hung over the mountain ridge.
“Huff, haaah.”
“Everyone. Good work today as well.”
Sir Isra looked down at the gathered members from atop the hill in a solemn posture.
The support team friends and Yeon-du were panting heavily.
“Huff, but, uncle.”
“Yeah?”
“Uncle, huff. Why, are you, huff. So fine.”
“My constitution is a bit special.”
Sir Isra didn’t discriminate when drilling us.
He’s so harsh on me too.
If it weren’t for the effects of Heavenly Martial Body, I would have been panting like the support team friends.
Ingrid and Mi-jeong, who had been training separately, also returned.
“How was it over there?”
“She’s improved quite a bit since I last saw her.”
Mi-jeong blushed.
“I practiced a bit.”
“You have a long way to go. Work harder.”
“Yes!”
Yeon-du joining us.
Sir Isra regaining his living appearance.
There were several issues.
But the training went smoothly.
* * *
After being attacked by the Chinese Hunters.
I couldn’t go to the Blacksmith District for a while.
Because I prioritized recreating the consumed undead soldiers.
Now the troop reinforcement should be somewhat complete.
I was about to go seek instruction.
[Nam Jin-woo, Senior Apprentice]
―Could you come in a week? Master has entered all-night work mode.
I received this reply and said I understood.
What should I do with the freed-up time.
“Boss. Could you schedule more Gate conquest dates?”
“Of course.”
What else would I do.
Gate conquest, of course.
Heavy cavalry Tigris joined the main force.
The two vassals were also further strengthened through modification.
It would be even better if there was a B-rank Gate with entry restrictions that matched like last time.
“I’ll make reservations for conquests as soon as they appear.”
“Ah. I’m just saying it would be nice if there were any.”
Can’t be helped.
Should I try pushing through with quantity.
[Ravine of Screams]
Grade: C
Entry Restriction: C ~ D(15)
“Kihihihit!”
The source of the screams was harpies.
Their upper bodies resembled humans.
But where arms should be, there were wings covered in brown feathers.
Their lower bodies were monsters resembling birds.
[Sonic Attack]
Ziiiiing!
It was like tinnitus magnified dozens of times.
“Ugh, boss.”
“I’m dizzy.”
The support team friends staggered.
Even though I heard it from quite a distance, I was hit with debuffs like [Sensory Dulling] and [Center Disruption].
If I had been closer, I would have taken physical damage too.
“Grrrr.”
Tigris looked up at the sky and growled lowly.
Against flying-type opponents, even his remarkable breakthrough power was hard to utilize.
“Ingrid.”
“I was waiting for Master’s command.”
[Unique Technique – Eclipse]
[Multiple Calculation]
[Fireball X 3]
[Wind Bomb X 2]
[Modified Technique – Release]
The time it took to complete five spells and combine them was 1.4 seconds.
Previously, it would have required about 10 seconds.
The completed magic flew in a straight line in the time it takes to draw a single breath.
It spread widely before the harpy flock could react.
The hot wind created by mixing Fireballs and Wind Bombs struck the harpies.
“Kiiiiik!”
The harpies fell like rain.
The monsters that took direct hits were burned black.
Even those that were grazed had parts of their wings burned, making flight impossible.
“Once isn’t quite enough, is it?”
[Unique Technique – Eclipse]
[Multiple Calculation]
She deployed the same technique consecutively.
From rearrangement to emission to impact took less than 3 seconds.
Another explosion rang out.
The remaining harpies were also cooked well-done.
“Uh, hyung-nim. Ingrid-nim seems a bit different.”
“I upgraded her a little.”
“It doesn’t seem like just a little though.”
Well, that’s true.
Her mana stat increased by more than double.
With [Multiple Calculation], her magic deployment speed became incomparably faster.
To clean up dozens of flying-type monsters in less than 10 seconds.
And using only D-rank magic at that.
It was performance that far exceeded common Hunter knowledge.
“Did you see that, Iron Head?”
“Hmph. It’s my turn next, Mage.”
[Mana Emission]
Sir Isra kicked off various parts of the valley and sliced through the harpies.
Is that a rocket or a person?
Perhaps because he was soaring through the air in his living form.
His fluttering blonde hair seemed dazzling.
“Just because you can fly around the sky doesn’t mean you can escape Sir Isra’s judgment!”
Hmm.
I don’t know why the embarrassment is my share.
【My lord. If you give me a body too, I will be active!】
Could the self-proclaimed archaeologist fly around the sky or drop harpies with a single gesture?
It would be impossible, but I didn’t bother saying so.
There’s no need to discourage our vassal.
Zaugg’s specialty is stealth and ambush.
I picked out suitable items from the Chinese Hunters’ equipment, so I should modify him soon.
“Kirururuk!”
The Harpy Mother, the boss monster, let out a screech.
“Don’t interfere, Mage.”
“You’re the one getting in the way, Iron Head.”
[Mana Emission]
[Unique Technique – Eclipse]
[Lightning X 5]
[Modified Technique – Shatter]
A lightning spear twisted five-fold and concentrated into one point pierced through the Harpy Mother.
Almost simultaneously.
Sir Isra’s sword, having kicked off the cliff and risen up, severed her neck.
“Enemy leader, defeated!”
“Don’t steal my kill!”
“That pathetic lightning couldn’t fell the monster in one strike.”
“Hmph. Want to taste some lightning?”
Everyone’s overflowing with energy.
“To clear a C-rank Gate in less than 30 minutes.”
“This guarantees an SSS-rank rating, hyung-nim.”
Hmm.
It hasn’t even been 30 minutes yet.
The Two Vassals are still energetic too.
I haven’t even brought out the other Undeads.
I need to test Tigris’s performance more too.
“Should we hit more Gates?”
“Ah, ahaha. If hyung-nim says to go, we have to go.”
“Please handle the cleanup quickly.”
“Of course. Guys, let’s get to work!”
It was nice to see everyone so enthusiastic about making money.
【I don’t think that’s why they’re happy.】
Come on.
Everyone likes making money.
That day.
We conquered three C-rank Gates in succession.
* * *
The executive director of GGG, California’s largest guild.
Hunter Sophia, known by the alias “Saint of Los Angeles,” had stayed in Korea for two weeks.
Her main objective had already been achieved.
Park Min-ho.
She had succeeded in forming connections with the rising star recognized by the Executor, a legendary Hunter comparable to the 12 Heroes.
However.
She didn’t return home immediately.
Sophia’s ostensible purpose for coming to Korea.
—Establishing a foothold for GGG in East Asia.
With this justification, she held meetings with various organizations including the Domestic Big Five.
In her spare time, she wore comfortable clothes and enjoyed sunbathing or splashing in the water.
“Hahhh. I can’t remember the last time I relaxed like this.”
Sophia smiled with satisfaction and picked up the tablet placed nearby.
[Conquering three C-rank Gates in a single day? Rising star Park Min-ho on a roll!]
[Major guilds growing tense over Park Min-ho’s explosive growth!]
[Chinese authorities still maintaining silence on attempts to recruit Park Min-ho…]
Articles related to Min-ho get updated almost daily.
‘Good thing I secured ties with him early.’
A C-rank Hunter conquering three Gates of the same rank in one day?
It’s an absurd pace.
Setting aside stamina and mana consumption.
Mental fortitude can’t withstand it.
Even Sophia, called the Saint of Los Angeles.
It was obvious she’d collapse before long if she conquered at that pace.
‘It’s probably thanks to his unique Familiars, but whatever.’
Having powerful Minions itself means being excellent as a Necromancer.
Moreover.
Min-ho, whom I met in person, also had outstanding warrior-class talent.
‘I’m looking forward to the future.’
On the other hand.
The meeting with the Domestic Big Five, who supposedly control Korea’s Hunter industry, wasn’t very satisfying.
Their skills were all outstanding.
Korea is a small country less than 1/3 the area of California.
Compared to that.
The level of Hunters was very high.
That was exactly where it ended.
Setting aside the SS-rank Hunter Executor.
There were several S-rank Hunters who were the flagship members of the Domestic Big Five, but they weren’t at a level for GGG to join hands with.
“James.”
“Yes, Executive Director.”
“Our return is the day after tomorrow, right?”
“That’s correct.”
“Could you schedule a meeting with Mr. Park for tomorrow?”
The A-rank Hunter assigned as both bodyguard and secretary slightly furrowed his brow.
“You’re meeting that guy again?”
“I don’t know when I’ll come to Korea again, so I want to give him a gift.”
“Yes. Understood.”
The A-rank Hunter turned around sharply.
At an angle Sophia couldn’t see.
The Hunter called James bit his lips hard.
‘Damn it, investing so much in a yellow monkey like that!’
Crack―
Enough for the blood to drain from his clenched fist.
James swallowed his rage and sent a text to someone.
