<Rune Information>
◎Name: Power of the Boiling Werewolf
◎Grade: Epic
◎Level: 9
◎Engraved Part: Vocal Cords
◎Special Effects: –
1) Can handle the power of an ‘Awakened Werewolf’. The destructive power and instantaneous force of melee combat utilizing strength, speed, and endurance increase drastically. Additionally, the performance of runes that enhance and assist the body increases by 10%, and the performance of runes related to ‘martial arts’ increases by 15%.
2) On full moon nights, the inherent power awakens. Receiving moonlight causes all abilities to increase by 10%.
3) The type of derived skill ‘Howling’ differs for each awakened individual. Originally, only one Howling could be acquired per individual, but an abnormal rune acquisition led to a new effect.
*Rune Hunter Additional Effect
: There is no limit to the number of ‘Howling’ skills that can be acquired. If the ‘Power of the Boiling Wolf’ rune is acquired again later, only the Howling skill of that rune is newly added to the derived skills.
◎Derived Skill: –
◎ [Indigo Force Howling]
◎Details
: A special power that only the Awakened Lycans of the Lycan tribe of werewolves can use. On nights when the brilliant moonlight shines, that power is amplified beyond control. If you happen to see a howling wolf somewhere on a moonlit night, it will already be difficult to spare your life at that moment.
“...It’s definitely different.”
After defeating Duke, the S-grade monster and Awakened Lycan, I read the information of the rune I acquired and remarked in a small voice of admiration.
Not all Epic runes are the same just because they are Epic grade.
While some runes rated as Epic perform similarly to Rare grade, at times there are Epic runes that outperform Legendary grade as well.
This [Power of the Boiling Wolf] was one of those top-ranking Epic runes.
The ability effects were that good.
“The power of awakening, moonlight effect...”
Enhancement of physical enhancement runes’ performance and martial arts-related runes’ performance.
And the ability boost gained under the special condition of a full moon night.
All the effects were focused on ‘pure melee combat’ without using weapons.
Although there are occasional variants like Duke who are skilled at magic, the basic nature of Lycans is direct combat utilizing melee attacks.
Naturally, the rune’s special effects had to develop in that direction.
“Additionally gaining Howlings...”
I can’t acquire [Power of the Boiling Werewolf] in duplicate, but I can continue to add the ‘unique Howlings’ of those individuals as skills.
This was a boon for me, who will engage in countless battles against Lycans going forward.
The [Indigo Force Howling] alone allows me to inflict the powerful abnormal state of ‘Magic Control’ on all targets who hear the howl.
To be able to acquire such Howlings without limit....
If this dungeon raid is successful, I may end up with dozens of Howlings.
“Hey, what kind of mumbling is that?”
As I spaced out and organized the information for a moment, a familiar voice reached me.
It was Moon Ga-eun, now casually dressed.
Leaning by the door, she was quietly looking at me sitting at the desk.
“Hey, when did you come in?”
Thanks to Enrihten’s [Warp Gate] recommendation, we decided to meet again in three days and returned to reality.
There was a lot to report to the Association and discuss within the attack squad...
But first, we each went home to rest.
So I naturally assumed she had gone home too, but she had come to my place.
“Thirty minutes ago? You were spacing out and couldn’t even hear the door, Jae-hyun.”
“Really? How did you know my house password?”
“Geez, you wanna die? You told me last time, saying how can a girlfriend not know her boyfriend’s house password.”
...Did I?
With so many huge incidents happening lately, I don’t really remember the trivial daily conversations.
And it seems I have to pay the price, as Mun Ga-eun says something frightening.
“I’m really upset right now.”
But the problem doesn’t end with just revealing it.
She’s dating Do Jae-hyun...
It’s okay to say that much.
He is the most famous Holder currently receiving a lot of attention, so even her obstinate father would be able to understand if she’s dating a man like that.
But now, if she introduces the two other girlfriends, Kim Chae-eun and Moon Ga-eun...
‘......’
Kang Juyeon stopped her thoughts there.
She didn’t even want to imagine what would happen.
Her father, who had never properly scolded or pushed her as his daughter until now, would react in a way that defies imagination if he hears such an explosive revelation.
Knock knock –
Kang Juyeon brushed off her silly thoughts and knocked on the door.
She had to face it no matter what happens.
“It’s me, father.”
“Oh, okay. Come in.”
She had informed her assistant secretary in advance, so the door opened right away.
Kang Woo-hyun, who was sitting on the sofa, had a large newspaper spread open.
Even though times have changed a lot, he still preferred reading the paper newspaper.
“Juyeon, come take a look at this. It’s an article about that friend Do Jae-hyun, and it talks in detail about his history of interning at our Judgment of Fire clan. Haha. This reporter really has an eye for these things.”
The topic of conversation that Kang Woo-hyun brought up with a hearty laugh was ironically about Do Jae-hyun.
And for good reason...
Because of Do Jae-hyun and his raid party, the current Holder world is in chaos.
– Do Jae-hyun proves communication with monsters, previously thought impossible!
– Following the Chamber of the Transcendent, the Baraten faction... Just what kind of race are the Lycan?
– The paradigm-shifting Ripple Raid Party to re-enter in three days
– This raid’s interim report further strengthens the mainstream academia’s ‘Other World Theory’...
Communication and cooperation with monsters, raids leading to inter-faction battles, the [Warp Gate] created by monsters, A-grade and S-grade Holders vying in the highest difficulty dungeon, etc...
Things never before seen in previous dungeon raids are pouring out.
Everything is unprecedented.
Everything is a new story.
They were truly writing the legend of the Holder world, Do Jae-hyun and the <Ripple Raid>.
And Kang Juyeon, watching this scene, had a slight smile on her face.
The topic she had to discuss today came up first.
It was undoubtedly a positive sign.
“Father.”
“Yes?”
Kang Woo-hyun turned his head immediately at his daughter’s call.
She couldn’t hesitate any longer.
In times like this, she had to throw the strike right away.
Kang Juyeon steeled her heart and asked her father.
“What do you think of that Do Jae-hyun... As a son-in-law?”
“......”
And at that moment.
She froze right there.
Ah.
I misspoke.
I was going to ask what he thinks of him as a boyfriend...
