83 – The Three Pairs of Horns

“Are you asleep…”

I carefully lifted the girl named Ene, who was sleeping soundly with a calm complexion, and moved her steps toward the blue-haired woman who appeared to be her older sister.

A woman running with staggering steps, fixing her eyes on the girl in my arms.

Her chains, shackles, and bars that had bound her seemed to have been lifted from the back side of the woman shaking her head before she knew it.

“Eh, yes…!”

As I hand the girl to her woman, the woman gently embraces her girl with her trembling hands as if handling fragile glass art.

The woman saw the girl’s peaceful face, let out a sigh of relief, and gave her girl a gentle stroke on her cheek.

“Ah…!”

Looking at her sister’s affectionate appearance with warm eyes for a while, suddenly Oops! With a smile on her face, she hurriedly raised her head and met her gaze.

“Bird, with a lifesaver in front of me, I was really rude…! My name is Ezerina Wiz…!”

“Mercenary, Misteltein.”

“You’re Mistiltein… Thank you very, very much for saving our sisters…!!!”

Along with her involuntary cries, Ezerina bowed her head deeply to express her gratitude.

I silently stroked her hair and comforted her, but I didn’t let go of her battle stance.

And the sound of someone’s applause flying toward me.

“Heeep!”

Ezerina abruptly stopped crying at the sudden sound, and I cast my gaze toward the source of the sound.

The source of the sound is the common entrance I entered earlier.

Standing there was a slender man in his thirties, wearing greaves engraved with ‘three pairs of horns’.

“Really, that’s amazing. To annihilate 5 middle-level followers and 30-plus low-level followers without moving a single step… You seem to be the best wizard I’ve ever seen?”

“You, are…! Master’s, enemy…!!!”

Ezerina looked at the man admiring her from above with eyes full of anger.

“An unidentified mercenary, [Dungeon Destroyer] Misteltein, who has recently appeared suddenly and is active around Karabog….”

But as if her man wasn’t interested, she didn’t even look at Ezerina.

“…Me?”

“Of course it is. A strong person like you basically reveals some of his previous actions, but you appeared suddenly, as if he had ‘fallen from the sky.’ , I’m very interested in that amazing search ability that looks as if you already know the location. That combat ability that captures all the found dungeons.”

‘Well, this operation almost failed because of that. According to the plan, at least 20 dungeons should have been liberated.’

A glance-

In the meantime, I beckoned Ezerina to evacuate to a common corner.

“But…! …No, now I’m only going to be a hindrance.”

Ezerina, who tried to express that she couldn’t do that for a moment, calmly recognized her body condition, which had been exhausted from being confined for several days with her sister who had fallen asleep in her arms. Followed

“Misteltain-nim, be careful. I fought with the author for a while… But the author handled a very fast quicksword….Please, no luck.”

After looking at me anxiously for a while, Ezerina cautiously moved to one side of the joint.

‘Baekah, please.’

‘Yes, leave it to me!’

After sending Baekmyeon to follow and protect her sister, I fixed my gaze on her man again.

“You were the one who saved Sacree Village? And you also defeated the Pocari Intermediate Followers there.”

“…….”

“Seeing that the communication magic on the Pocari mid-level followers has also been cut off, it seems that the plan to capture the Cuff Mercenary Corps has also failed… Unfortunately. If the operation succeeds, the ‘Devil God’s Blessing’ will be added to the executive for that feat. After receiving it, you must have created a new advanced follower.”

As she shook her head sadly, turbid magic gradually began to arise in the man’s body.

I raised my mana accordingly.

“So I’ll take you and the girl from the corner. Well, if it’s you, I’ll replace the lost power and cuff mercenaries. No, it’s rather beneficial.”

“…Try it. A worm possessed by a demon.”

“…hahahaha!”

Her man raised the corner of her mouth and pulled out the sword at her waist ──

“… Even you, the arrogant one, if you get baptized, you’ll immediately realize the greatness of the demon-sama, and you’ll bow down to her… Hey!”

Wheek-!

──In an instant, I rushed this way.

‘It’s fast… !’

Initiated at the same time as entering battle, Accelerates the speed of thinking by 10 times.

However, even in a world that has slowed down to 1/10, the man was moving at a normal speed, albeit a bit slow.

At least twice as fast as me.

Shy hee hee profit—!

In a short period of time, less than one second in real time, a man who instantly closed the distance of dozens of meters and wielded a longsword clad in a dark sword at me.

It was a rough swordsmanship that only focused on speed, throwing away the precision and linkage of swordsmanship. Combined with the speed of her man, it turned into a very menacing swordsmanship.

‘But this side has more than enough time to use magic!’

“The light rock wall!”

Koo-Goo-Gung-! A thick wall of rock was created between me and her man.

A rock filled with magical energy is as strong as an iron wall several meters thick. No matter how much the sword is wrapped around it, it is impossible to cut it all at once.

“”Great flames…Suck!?”

Creepy-!

The moment I was about to build up the offensive magic spells right away. A cool chill ran down his spine.

“「Earth Wall」!!!”

As my keen senses sounded the alarm, I hurriedly used magic to raise the ground beneath my feet, dodging myself into the air.

Sugung-

At that moment, the swordsman with a terrifying anticipation cut through the thick rock wall at once, and gently cut the earthen wall where I was just as if cutting through water.

The power that is ‘impossible’ for a sword skill carried on a man’s sword.

Then…

“Is it a gift…!”

“Oh! You’re a wizard, but you have great senses! You’ve never seen my [Sharp B+], But you can sense its power!”

A man who looked up at me with admiration as I felt strange and immediately avoided me even after using defense magic.

“Still, dodging into the unavoidable void is deducted points…!”

However, the man hurriedly dodged it and quickly leaped toward me, who was floating in the air in an unstable posture, and wielded a sharp slash that cut through the air.

Shoo-!

What caught on the trail of the sword felt by my senses were my arms and legs.

The terrifying anticipation contained in the slash forced her to realize that even if she was wearing the That halved all attacks, it would be impossible to defend.

“…Kuh!”

“…Avoid this?”

Determining that defense was impossible, I immediately sprayed magical energy at joint parts such as elbows, shoulders, and knees.

With that, he adjusted his unstable stance and at the same time entered an evasive maneuver and succeeded in narrowly avoiding a slash.

“「Wind Boom」!”

“…Huh!?”

Pur-!

From noble mtl dot com

I exploded the wind between me and the man who was making an absurd expression, and kept the distance between me and the man as far as possible.

A man blown away by the wind. I continued to fire low-class magic that had become non-chanting at such a man.

Shush Shyuk!

“…Cheet!”

Fire spheres, water arrows, wind spikes, stone bullets, tree snares……

At the sight of countless magical feasts pouring down on her man, the man clicked his tongue in annoyance.

“Huh!”

──Sigh!

As soon as he landed on the floor, he unleashed a swift sword strike and cut away the magic that had reached him in an instant.

Kwaguawang-!

Then the man leaves the seat at a speed enough to leave an afterimage behind. Magic landed on the spot where the man left, creating noise and thick dust.

Hung-

A man slicing through the thick dust and galloping towards us at high speed. I found such a man and poured out my magic again at the speed of a machine gun.

“Ha! I wonder if that’s right!”

But a man who runs zigzag and avoids the barrage of magical fire.

“Daeyeomgu 大炎球”!”

I predicted the man’s movements with my keen senses, and even injected intermediate magic with precision so that I couldn’t avoid it…

“Ha ha! Sandals like wizards are especially vulnerable to speed swordsmen like me!”

“…Tsk!”

In the blink of an eye, the slash that was swung over several times shattered the magic.

If you fire intermediate magic that has been stacked to the limit, it won’t be able to get rid of it right away and will take damage….

‘… This is the deepest part of the cave in the mountain. Otherwise, the entire cave could collapse and be buried… !’

Feeling frustrated, I fired several more intermediate level spells, but his swift sword-spell shot down all the magic.

‘As expected, agility has reached the ‘superhuman limit’, so it’s tremendous speed… !’

I clicked his tongue as I recalled his physical abilities, which I had appraised upon seeing him.

Strength: C+ (55)

Agility: B+ (74)

Endurance: C-(45)

Stamina: C- (49)

mana: C (54)

Sense: B (65)

If you draw a graph of stats, the agility value is so high that it stands out by itself.

When you see that the number of 74 is the limit of a B+ grade, you can see that his agility is ‘the highest speed that can be had in the realm of a superman’.

My agility is C+ (58), so there is a difference of almost 20 agility. This is the difference between a runner and a cheetah.

“Be quiet…! I’ll drop your limbs so fast you won’t even feel the pain…!”

As if to prove it, the man who had pierced through her magic and came right in front of her nose drew her cruel smile on her lips and swung his sword at me in an instant.

‘Because it was empty earlier, I just had to dodge the blow…. Now that I’m on the ground, even if I dodge the blow, the pursuing blow will come right away… !’

In that case——

[ Is activated! (Target: Strength, Agility, Endurance, Stamina.)]

[The level of strength is temporarily increased! C (52) ▶ C+(55) ]

[The level of agility is temporarily increased! C+(58)▶ B- (60) ]

[The durability level is temporarily increased! C (50) ▶ C+(55) ]

[Temporarily increasing the level of physical strength! C (51) ▶ C+(55) ]

──Use For all physical abilities that Applies!

Aww!

Feel the tightening muscles of the whole body, lighter body movements, stronger body strength and vitality welling up from within, and gauge the difference between you and the enemy.

‘With this, the strength is equal. And I have the upper hand in endurance, stamina, and senses. Magic is overwhelmingly superior, but agility is still overwhelmingly inferior…. Therefore… ‘

[We will replace the gift! [Emotion A] ▶ [Acceleration C] ]

[ Is activated! Target: [Acceleration C] ]

[ Acceleration (C) ▶ Acceleration (C+) ]

‘Insufficient speed is forcibly raised with tremendous magical power and gifts!’

Sureung-!

“What…!?”

I entered the world of the same swiftness as the man with a fight, and within 1 second of the comma, I used the longsword I made in ‘Weapon Eater’ and used the , And gently let the man’s sword flow.

I sent out the fastest slash I could.

Suddenly!

“Kuhh…?!”

“Tsk…! Was it shallow because the sword was cut off…!”

A man holding on to the long diagonal wound on his chest and quickly running backwards.

Despite the aura wrapped around it, I alternately looked at the sword that was cut in half and the man who was staring at me in disbelief, and clicked her tongue with regret.

If it hadn’t been cut off while pouring it out, it would have been able to cut through the man’s heart….

“You, you…! You weren’t a wizard…!?”

“I must have learned one this time. These days, wizards learn one self-defense technique.”

‘…… It’s not just a level of self-defense. At least I think you’re better than me….’ Ezerina’s words muttered in a corner of the common room, spilling into one ear.

“…Go.”

With magic in one hand and sword in the other. I rushed toward the man whose relaxed expression had begun to disappear.
