All Skill Master

Episode 40

2.

When Yoo Ju-yeon made a list of skills to copy, the most troublesome part was novelty.

“What is the greatest strength of a skill master?”

As an EX-class unique characteristic, there are no limits when it comes to its strengths.

First of all, swordsmanship, magic, heal, curse, buff, etc. without restrictions. It has the greatest advantage that can not be surpassed that it can use all skills.

In addition to that, the first thing that comes to mind is the advantage of copying another user’s skill with a unique feature effect, but rather adding a skill that is better than that user’s skill as an option and adding a unique feature.

But that alone isn’t enough to bring out the flavor.

It was hard to give an EX-class impact by just using a little more skills.

[Battle in the Blood] is the same.

If [Battle in Blood] and [Breaking Limits] are added to wield a sword, is that the true nature of a Skill Master?

To others, he was just a user using the same skills as Lee Hye-sung.

That’s the downside.

It’s an ability with overwhelming advantages, but in the end, it’s an ability that just takes someone else’s skill and uses it.

So I struggled to find a feature.

The answer has already been found.

I didn’t have to spend days and days trying to find it.

It was because I had already learned how to use this and that skill by using it.

“How about mixing poison with magic?”

Hundreds, thousands, tens of thousands.

He didn’t think about searching through hundreds of thousands of skills.

Because it didn’t have to be perfect from the start.$

Yoo Joo-yeon’s honey official skill combos [Blood Battle], [Change Resistance], and [Brilliant Power] were not combined after looking for things.

I just used the skills that seemed to flow, so I ended up using them in tandem.

It was the same this time too.

I thought about what skills I had that I could use.

“I want to try using the catalyst.”

A boss skill obtained by killing [Poison Lizard King].

A skill that poisons a monster and activates the ‘fatal poisoning’ effect when the poisoning is 3 stacked.

It was hard to gauge how powerful it was because I had never used it before, but since it was a boss skill and Kim Hye-ji was hit by it, I thought it would be effective enough if I could use it.

Addiction is what you need to do.

The addiction skill was easily found by just looking through the video channels.

[Addiction (D)]

▶ Poisons the target. A medium is required.

▶ Duration: 180 seconds

▶ Required mana: 30

▶ Mana consumption: 80

Even though it was the same [Poisoning] skill, the grades were very different.

Low-grade [Poisoning] had a low duration and low mana consumption, and high-grade [Poisoning] could be spread into the air without being contained in a medium.

The difference is that the mana consumed and the mana required increase exponentially.

Yoo Joo-yeon didn’t need that much.

Maximum efficiency with low mana.

Because that was the point.

I took out the most basic ice spear for class D poisoning and put it in it.

“Oh oh.”

It didn’t matter what the medium was.

Even if it wasn’t a skill made with mana, I could use poisoning on food.

“Poisoning would be better with an ice spear than a fireball, right?”

I thought it would be helpful to spread the poisoning effect directly to the blood through penetration rather than burn, so I didn’t want to use Fireball as much as possible.

Like that, use the ice spear to poison it and use the catalyst.

There are only 3 skills required.

[Change Resistance], [Battle in the Blood], and [Brilliant Authority] are practically fixed skills, so it’s like having 6 skill slots full.

That’s how I prepared.

With a 25% chance of counting, the charge explodes, leaving 1 copy of the skill.

The effect was satisfactory.

“This is it.”

Ice Spear and the poisoning effect itself are not that strong.

After all, it’s an E-class and a D-class skill, and it’s the most basic magic.

However, when the catalyst exploded with 93 magic power and some damage, the firepower was enough to send a D-class monster away in one shot.

“and. what. just now?”

After the battle ended without even using the fire magic she had summoned, Kim Hye-ji asked in a more excited voice than before.

At her fuss, Juyeon Yoo’s shoulder automatically went up.

novelty.

I seemed to have found the answer.

“how is it? It’s a mixture of poisoning and ice spear.”

“omg. How did you get your addiction? did you buy That’s expensive.”

“no. I never bought magic.”

“From Fireball to Ice Spear addiction? I hope Mr. Jooyeon… … .”

Kim Hye-ji hesitated to speak.

“Elemental Master… … ?”

“Let’s say something similar.”

It’s hard once, not hard twice.

When I tried to tell a lie based on the settings I had made, it popped out.

There is no problem with post-processing, and now the number of skill copies is a bit more relaxed, so if necessary, you can copy at that time.

“and! It’s the first time I’ve seen a wide area skill that kills a level 28 spider. ah. Can’t you just tell me how much mana you really have? I’m really, really curious.”

“I heard that your mother doesn’t tell you your abilities even if you ask her?”

“ah. How will you tell me? How about honey instead of mom?”

“… … .”

“Can’t you tell me if you signed up for a hundred years?”

Watching him casually throw a joke that puts his life at stake, I almost told him without even realizing it.

He concealed his true feelings and was straight.

“Don’t cross the line. It’s not the kind of hukou you give to that pretty woman with your gallbladder.”

“Am I pretty?”

“… … .”

“all right. joke. I’m sorry if I made you feel bad.”

Kim Sang-wook shook his head while looking at Kim Hye-ji, who was clean until the timing of smiling and apologizing.

“It looks like I’ll be offering the liver and gallbladder sooner or later.”

The hunt went smoothly.

The appearing spiders collapsed under the increasingly systematized [Ice Spear], [Poisoning], and [Catalyst] combos, and after wandering around the cave for about 3-4 hours, they entered a huge cavity that made them wonder if they had come out.

“It’s Philbo.”

Cobwebs everywhere.

An endless ceiling.

Creepy sounds seen in the dark.

Sasasac-

The queen spider, which occupied one side of the ceiling, appeared with dozens of legs.

“wow.”

It is a scale that makes you admire.

Kim Sang-wook took out his shield and held it.

Kim Hye-ji’s fireworks pour down towards the entangled spider webs here and there.

Unlike the spider webs in the cave, the spider webs in the cavity did not break easily.

Even though it is on fire, it flows down.

And spiders began to come out one by one through the numerous holes in the ceiling.

fear itself

Grotesque hairs on numerous legs.

The spiders are all aiming at me for the stench that makes me sick just by looking at it.

Even so, Yoo Joo-yeon laughs.

“Good.”

The more rubbish there are, the stronger Yoo Ju-yeon becomes.

In addition, he has prepared special moves to catch many monsters.

“It’s a perfect day for a snowy wind.”

A cavity in a cave with a blocked ceiling.

The sleet started to blow.

* * *

With a 25% chance of returning the number once, Juyeon Yoo put one skill copy into her wide-area skill.

“If it’s 6 times, it deserves to be returned twice.”

I’m sorry, but I still have one somewhere.

While searching for various skills, I picked the one that best matched the concept of Ice Spear.

[Blizzard of Annihilation (B)]

▶ Summons a blizzard that freezes everything. Frostbite (F~B) effect is applied according to the magic power level.

▶ Required mana: 75

▶ Mana consumed: 999

▶ Power increases by 30% when possessing A-rank or higher magical properties.

▶ When magic power is 150 or higher, blizzard ignores magic defense by 30%.

▶ The duration of the blizzard is increased by 1 second for each creature killed by the blizzard.

Although the grade is B, it is safe to say that the attached option is A or higher.

Actually, this skill uploaded on the video channel is a skill acquired at level 60 by one of the ice-type wizard rankers.

Addiction is contained in that blizzard.

I had to put in a lot more than the amount in Ice Spear, so much more mana was consumed, but the 40% reduction effect made it possible to release enough poison for the blizzard.

The spider and the queen spider couldn’t escape the blizzard.

Before I knew it, snowflakes that obscured my vision were scattered in the cavity.

The catalyst was used without having to wait long.

The snow that had faded became stronger again.

The screams of countless spiders are buried in the sound of snow falling, and the blood of the spiders is absorbed by Yoo Joo-yeon and converted into ability values again.

“It’s infinite power.”

One of the good things about [Battle in the Blood] is that when absorbing the target’s stats, it doesn’t just absorb one of the strength/agility/stamina/magic, it also absorbs miscellaneous stats.

For example, Mana.

“Ice Spear.”

Fifteen ice spears are created in the snowstorm.

It was easy.

It was too easy.

“Is this EX level… … .”

This is a D-class field.

And the one up there is the field boss of the D-class field.

No matter how much Juyeon Yoo is wearing two fraudulent items, she is still at level 15.

However, while hunting field bosses with at least level 40 or higher alone, he even pampered himself.

Kim Sang-wook and Kim Hye-ji, who are next to me, don’t even have time to help.

I felt it again.

The difference in ratings that users say.

difference in birth.

It is said that there is a wall that cannot be crossed between A-class and S-class, S-class and SS-class.

An EX-class skill master, the ability of God that Ego said.

The blizzard lifted and the queen spider’s gigantic body crashed to the ground.

thud!

A sound so loud that the cavity rang.

He flinched as if he was still struggling, but he didn’t show any threatening movements.

There was no need to attack any more.

After being exposed to the ‘deadly poisoning’ effect several times, the queen spider soon became limp.

“… … .”

“… … .”

The two pairs of gazes full of absurdity met with each other in a daze.

“uh.”

In fact, since entering the joint, I forgot that Kim Hye-ji was there and poured everything out.

Was it because I thought it was a lethal thing?

“yes… … Thank you for your effort.”

An awkward silence lingered.

And even belated screams.

“evil! The soul didn’t come in!”

* * *

After the settlement, Yu Ju-yeon experienced a new world.

“how much?”

“It’s 81.42 million won.”

Even though the boss system did not fall from the field boss, this amount was put into Yoo Joo-yeon’s bank account, excluding the user association’s 20% corpse processing fee.

Even tax is limited.

“… … .”

Of course, it was possible because the ransom of the field boss [The Queen of Predatory Spiders] was high, but even with that out of the way, the amount divided between Kim Hye-ji and Kim Sang-wook was bound to be a shock.

“This barrel of honey… … .”

Maybe rankers drink honey every morning.

“It’s about that much because it’s distributed alone. It’s really hard to get that much.”

“Wouldn’t Hyeji be able to earn this much if he went out with Sangwook hyung?”

“Because I can’t wake up so easily.”

I understood at once why they went out on the field while taking risks by reducing the number of people in the party at all costs.

I knew where the items and bundles of money worn by Kim Hye-ji and Kim Sang-wook came from.

“Should I take a shot?”

It felt too good to ruthlessly shake it off.

“I shoot!”

I felt sorry for not being able to beat a single field boss and not being able to eat their souls.

Kim Sang-wook had a disapproving expression, but headed to the bar.
