Episode 57

preliminaries

– The duration of the game is 30 minutes. If a match is not decided after all the match time has elapsed, it will be considered a draw.

The referee’s voice echoed through large speakers installed throughout the stadium. And the opponent who faced Kanghyuk’s fishy smile opened his mouth.

“What, are you laughing?”

“Can’t you just laugh?”

Kanghyuk did not avoid the gaze of the other person who reacted to his smile. Although they were obviously the same student, their huge, unlike human body created a sense of intimidation.

– Precautions during the game… … .

‘It’s an easy opponent… … .’

Obviously, Taeyang Geum said that the opponent would be easy, but it didn’t look like that at all. Just looking at the momentum it gives off, it’s not normal. Kang Hyuk, who couldn’t see his opponent’s rank, probably because he couldn’t concentrate during the briefing, thought it was better not to.

‘Are you saying he’s an easy opponent based on himself?’

– Players salute each other.

Place your right fist on your left chest and bow in silence.

The eyes of the opponent who slowly raised his head met Kanghyuk’s eyes.

-Please prepare for the game. Enter the countdown.

Leave behind the opposing team facing each other and turn backwards without regret.

-10.

walk forward

-9.

The footsteps of the other party gradually faded. I pictured the two teams drifting apart in my head.

-8.

I turned my head and looked at the electronic signboard, and there were numbers on the wide black screen.

Kang Hyuk placed his left hand on the tip of the scabbard and his right hand on the handle of the sword.

Give strength to both hands, grab and pull strongly. A clear metal sound came from the scabbard in the pure whiteness. A sword that glowed white in the sunlight was pulled out of its scabbard.

Obviously, the heart was pounding and beating wildly when entering the arena, but it subsides calmly just before the start of the game.

Feeling the weight of the heavy sword, Kanghyuk looked around.

Golden Sun, Andrew, No, Chevalier.

Team members are preparing for battle in their own way.

At the forefront, Andrew wears a gauntlet and fights his fists to strengthen his fighting spirit.

Behind Andrew, Chevalier checking the flag attached to the tip of the pike.

Anya makes a continuous locking sound and advances the bolt of the gun so that she can pull the trigger at any time.

And finally.

Golden Taeyang, who pulled out a black sword he hadn’t seen before and turned his neck left and right to warm up.

The opponent team on the other side of the stadium must have finished their preparations as well, so the giant standing in the lead raised his shield.

There is a swordsman holding a sword behind a shield and a spearman turning a spear. There was also a guy with a dagger. According to Geum Taeyang’s briefing, he is a healer. In the rearmost part, an archer is seen pulling a bow.

‘Whoa… … .’

Quiet breathed out.

As I calmed down, I couldn’t hear the audience’s cheers that seemed to fill the stadium.

The numbers on the display board are running towards the end.

-3.

-2.

-One.

The sound of sirens announcing the start exploded inside the stadium.

Kang Hyuk raised his sword.

-Taang-!

Anya’s green AWM spewed out with a harsh percussion.

A single line of comb is drawn in the air.

The bullet, which split the arena in half, was blocked by the giant parma and bounced off with sparks.

In the meantime, arrows fly from the opposing team. It’s slow compared to bullets. The arrow was aimed precisely at Anya, but Chevalier turned the spear once to accurately block it.

The shaft of the arrow trembled on the floor, proving that it was full of strength.

‘After all, it wasn’t just that kind of opponent.’

Regardless of Kang Hyuk’s thoughts, Geum Taeyang gave the order in compressed words suitable for the battle situation.

“The answer is short and concise. Stay in formation, move forward.”

Following his words, Andrew, Chevalier, Geum Taeyang, Kang Hyuk, and Anya advance little by little while maintaining formation.

The opposing team also slowly approached while maintaining formation.

With the sound of the iron locking, Anya reloads.

While moving forward, Geum Taeyang begins to give orders in earnest.

“Andrew, catch the opponent’s main tank.”

“okay.”

“Chevalier, block the opponent’s melee dealer from approaching Anya.

“yes.”

And he looks back at Kanghyuk. Kang Hyuk, who maintained his composure even after seeing the opposing team’s huge tanker, couldn’t help but flinch.

The golden sun’s eyes were burning hotly. Kanghyuk caught a glimpse of his strong will to tear his opponent apart in his eyes.

“Kang Hyuk. You go to the guerrilla warfare with me.”

“i get it.”

At his determined tone, Kang Hyuk found himself nodding his head.

I felt an unknown restraint from Taeyang’s words. As if he’s been doing this for a long time, he’s giving orders so naturally.

‘ah… … .’

stop thinking Without realizing it, I almost got swung by him.

“It starts. move.”

his words as a sign.

Kang Hyuk ran forward with Geum Taeyang.

Anya’s gunshot echoes behind her.

I passed by Chevalier, who skillfully cut the opposing swordsman’s magical sword.

Andrew, who put tangible magic into the long gauntlets in both hands, violently grabbed both ends of Parma’s tip and tried to rip it off.

“The priority is to neutralize the opposing team’s dealers.”

After saying that, Geumtaeyang threw himself at the opposing archer. When the golden sun rushes in, the opposing archers quickly run away.

Geum Taeyang immediately turns around and digs into the opposing team’s healer who was giving the order.

This time, Healer loses his tail and runs away.

The golden sun that Kanghyuk saw was a wolf that burrowed among the sheep.

– Chow!

‘Ick… … .’

After a brief glance, the other spearman approached and speared it at Kanghyuk’s temple.

“Isn’t it too much even if you wear magic protection?”

“What is God X saying?”

The spearman, clad in tight black tights that showed off his body, giggled and slashed his spear at Kanghyuk again.

As he tilted his head to the left to avoid it, a spear made of iron passed by the tip of Kang Hyuk’s nose.

Kang Hyuk, who switched the sword with his left hand, raised the mana of his whole body. He raised his right arm and grasped the spearhead stretched out in front of him.

He realized that the spearman’s physical ability was similar to his own by the heaviness he felt the moment he grabbed it.

“Where!”

The spearman immediately shook the spear and brushed off Kanghyuk’s hand. The tip of the spear, which had been shaking violently from side to side, stopped terribly before Kanghyeok fell off.

It stabs right away!

He hurriedly drew his sword and threw it away.

The spearman immediately attempts a double attack.

Episode 1 is the same as the first.

The second round was not significantly different. lightly dodged.

The third time was slightly faster, and the sword was raised and shed.

The 4th is so fast that it is clearly visible to the eye. I barely managed to turn my body and step back, but the spearman quickly caught up.

Episode 5 is like tearing through the air.

From the 6th episode, Kang Hyuk had to give up avoiding.

Because he is only blocking the opponent’s fierce attacks, the scars on his limbs that he could not block are increasing. Kang Hyuk felt it in the opponent’s continuous attack.

‘If you go for a speed battle, you won’t be able to catch up. then… … .’

Silently, I concentrated my magic on my toes and sword.

The magical power that had been slowly gathering suddenly turned into a shimmering figure that could be seen in its form, the moment the spear stabbed itself into the heart.

– Quaang.

With a small explosion, Kang Hyuk stepped on Jin-gak, shifted his waist to the right, and at the same time grabbed the spear pole with his left hand. The friction cracked and tore the palms, and the blood smeared on the spear.

The spearman’s gaze and Kanghyuk’s gaze crossed.

Kang Hyuk silently slammed his sword into the guy’s hand, but the spearman frowned as if he didn’t like it.

Grabbing the spear pole with both hands, swinging it in a large circle, naturally widening the distance.

‘yet… … is it.’

Kanghyuk looked down at his left hand. His hands twitched as if he had been electrocuted. It was a group of people who hoped that the left hand, which had become a mop, would no longer function properly.

‘under… … I thought I tried.’

“It’s more X food than I thought, right?”

The spearman facing each other grabs the center of the spear and spins it round and round, taunting Kanghyeok. Kanghyuk gritted his teeth at the guy’s provocation.

I thought it would be enough this time.

I thought there was a chance now.

but… … .

Everything is just your own thoughts. There was no such thing as a thing in the world that came to mind. It was sad.

“It’s not over yet.”

“Can you hold a sword properly with that hand? Admit it.”

The spearman held the spear and stared at Kanghyuk.

“You are done.”

The hand holding the handle of the sword was getting stronger and it turned white.

If I had the power… … .

If only I had talent… … .

I even bought an Ego Sword for today, but I don’t have an answer for this damn black.

Kang Hyuk, whose hopes were shattered, quietly lowered his head.

Looking down, I saw the spearman bending his leg. The guy’s leg muscles are tense and twitching as he tries to jump out.

That moment.

[Ah, that’s stuffy.]

There was a voice that resonated in my head. I was awakened by that voice. Kanghyuk’s gaze naturally turned to the sword.

A white sword flickered in his hand.

The spearman must have seen it too, and he frowned.

[Child, can I help you?]

Kanghyeok hesitated for a while, unable to grasp the purpose of the ego sword.

“What tricks are you going to do again!”

As if refusing to give it a chance, the spearman immediately lunges forward, straightening his compressed legs.

[Do you have time to think? I guess I need to decide soon?]

There was no more time to think. Kanghyuk nodded, and a loud laugh echoed in his head.

[Good, very good.]

A spearman approaching every moment.

[Tips his head back.]

The moment you tilt your head back as the voice tells you. Blue spear blades shoot out from under his chin. Had I been a little late, my head would have been skewered.

I rolled my eyes and looked down, and I met the sharp three hundred eyes of the spearman.

[Okay, now! Take it with your elbow.]

As Kanghyuk raised his arm, the spearman’s face was distorted as if he was frustrated.

‘Fuck-!’ With a popping sound, Kanghyuk’s elbow slammed right into the bridge of the spearman’s nose.

“Ahh-!! Mr. X!!!!!!”

The spearman grabbed the bridge of his nose, let out a roar, and hurriedly stepped back. A stream of nosebleeds trickled down between his hands.

“You are behind! I’ll make you a skewer!”

The spearman’s head turned completely red, and he grabbed the spear.

When he released his hand from his nose, his face turned red and bloody, completely demonic.

With a single blow, the atmosphere was reversed.

“you… … . That’s great.”

[With something like this.]

The spearman answers whether he accepted the words spoken to him.

“Are you kidding me right now?!”

[Should I show you something even greater? Would you like to send your magic to me?]

Kanghyuk ignored the spearman and pondered for a moment. The Ego Sword whispered as if it had noticed his thoughts.

[You woke me up. it’s your strength Look around.]

Kanghyuk looked around as he said.

Andrew exchanges one shot with the opposing tanker to see if they have gone over to a durability fight. When Andrew’s iron fist turns Tanker’s face into mush, Tanker raises his shield and smashes Andrew’s skull down as if crushing it.

Geumtaeyang beat the opposing team’s healers and archers before he knew it, and was joining Andrew.

Chevalier swings her long feathered spear gracefully and strikes the opponent’s swordsman. The swordsman hit by the spear pole fluttered here and there like a kite.

[Don’t you want to be like them who are full of talent?]

Kanghyuk nodded his head as if possessed by hearing the voice of the ego sword like a rope of salvation.
