A New Power (3)

<Contractor Information>

Name: Tyrbon (Bone Dragon)

-Contractor: Do Jae-hyun

Classification: Sub-dragon (Special)

Attribute:

Favorability: Interested

Condition: Excellent

General Stats

[Strength: 108]

[Endurance: 111]

Runes Possessed

[Blue Sky Fighter Lv.1]

[Sturdy Fangs Lv.1]

This was the information window I had confirmed after overcoming the previous trial.

It said, Tyrbon is no longer a commander.

That statement was reflected in the <Contractor Information> as well.

The classification, which used to be (Special/Construct), had dropped the Construct part. The attribute, which used to be Cursed, had become no-attribute and was left blank.

The favorability, which had always remained at Normal, had finally become Interested. And with his newfound power, his condition boasted an Excellent state.

Tyrbon had completely shed his past as a construct undead and was reborn as a sub-dragon lifeform.

He didnt become a water or fire attribute, though.

It was peculiar that his attribute was left blank.

I had somewhat expected him to become a fire attribute through the [Lions Fireworks] rune or a water attribute due to the transcendent Fluviuss influence

But it seems that level of rune or influence wasnt enough to alter his attribute.

Still, being a no-attribute wasnt necessarily bad.

The no-attribute is given to contractors specializing in physical enhancements or close-quarters combat, and it has the advantage of minimizing elemental weaknesses since it doesnt lean towards any particular attribute.

How is it? A big change, right?

Moon Ga-eun asked with an expectant look as I quietly examined the information window.

She had heard that Tyrbon had newly awakened after clearing a dungeon this time.

So she had been quite eager even before coming here to test it out.

Perhaps it was because we had flown together so often and had grown quite close.

Now it seemed like Moon Ga-eun cared more about Tyrbon than I did.

Yeah. He got new runes, and his ability stats increased a lot, too.

Tyrbons changes werent just limited to his attributes and classification.

His main ability stats, strength and endurance, had increased by 10 each, giving him a staggering 108 strength and 111 endurance.

Looking at just his ability stats, he was practically at the top A-grade level.

He probably had enough power to take down most monsters single-handedly.

Of course, from B-grade and up, a contractors rune utilization is valued more than raw ability stats for both Holders and monsters. But ability stats were still one of the evaluation criteria.

Having high ability stats wasnt a bad thing.

The runes he got are just right for Tyrbon, too.

The two new runes he obtained upon awakening were [Sturdy Fangs] and [Blue Sky Fighter].

The former was a physical enhancement rune I had obtained before, and the latter seemed to be an advanced version of [Quadruped Combat], a martial arts-type rune.

Although their levels were low since he had just gotten them, they were perfect for Tyrbon to utilize with his high strength and endurance.

This was a very satisfactory awakening result.

Plus, he even said things like this: -Master. I want to fly.

Tyrbon before his awakening, could express himself, but he always had a gloomy, negative mindset.

He only showed a little energy when given a magic stone, but he had never said anything this eager before.

But now that his favorability had become Interesting and he had gained a clean, new power, his whole demeanor seemed to have changed.

Come to think of it, even his appearance had become more stylish.

Should we go hunting for a bit?

He would bite into one manticores body with his fangs while striking others with his wings and tail.

The charge using [The Greatest Racehorse Under Heaven] was also one of his powerful attack methods.

[Contractor Tyrbons Blue Sky Fighter rune level has increased.]

[Contractor Tyrbons Sturdy Fangs rune level has increased.]

Thanks to this, the runes that had started at level 1 rapidly grew through combat experience.

Tyrbon became more and more accustomed to battle, freely utilizing his martial arts.

There was no trace of the crude fighting style he had when I first met him, simply relying on his massive size and high ability stats.

He had become a master of aerial close-quarters combat, to the point where even the renowned manticore experts were outmatched.

-Master. There are too many of them swarming us.

However, the saying that too many cooks spoil the broth, proved true.

No matter how powerful Tyrbon the dragon had become, he still struggled when mobbed by A-grade monsters en masse.

He could handle up to four at most.

But when the number exceeded seven or eight He sent me a signal rather than forcing it.

And I didnt hesitate to lend my power when that was the case.

Hup!!

Without any hesitation, I descended from Tyrbons back.

I suddenly dropped into the open air, but it wasnt an issue.

Thanks to the legendary boots [Mystical Dragon Boots] I had recently acquired, I could move in mid-air as if I were on solid ground.

Kyaoooo!!

At the same time, Tyrbon took flight towards the higher skies.

The moment I dismounted, he immediately retreated from the battlefield.

This instruction had already been conveyed through our mental link.

Kuhuhuhuh!!

Kweeeeh!!

With Tyrbon out of the way, a total of eight no, nine manticores charged at me simultaneously.

Normally, this many monsters wouldnt attack at once, but it happened because we had lured them together through our flight.

Its fine.

But I wasnt too worried.

Both my dismounting into the midst of the monsters and sending Tyrbon away I had done all this because I could handle it.

The reason was Tyrbon wasnt the only one who had newly awakened after clearing <Transcendents Room>.

Tak-

I quietly recited a verse as I gripped the sword I had unsheathed after so long.

Flow like a rapid stream.

Shua, Shuaaaa!!

A stream of blue water gushed out from the tip of the sword.

The water flowed through the air, enveloping my surroundings in a single sphere.

Some of the charging manticores stopped in confusion, while others plowed right in

But none of them could pierce through the water sphere.

And I didnt just stand still either.

Within the flowing water sphere, I found my own current and moved my sword.

No thrusting.

Just slashing, over and over again.

With detached ferocity, I relentlessly slashed everything within the sphere.

After roughly 10 seconds of this

Shuaaa, aaaa!!

Kugagaga!!

The water sphere that had enveloped me finally

Dispersed into dozens of blade beams, raining down upon the surrounding manticores.

This was the first ultimate skill of [Brave Eternal Wave].

[True Flowing Sword].
