Chapter 188

188. Keeper (4)

From an objective point of view, the probability of winning the battle against the replica was close to zero.

It was worth it.

Before entering the giant tree labyrinth, I was holding the position of the strongest in the Earth dimension.

Even originally, I had many abilities that shined brightly in large-scale battles.

And those are great things too.

Among them, if I had to pick out the most troublesome ability, this would be it.

Necromancy.

The unique characteristic of the all-rounder style that can use various abilities by using absorbed spirits as resources is...

「Challenger [Han Seong-yoon (僞)] completely reduces damage by consuming the spirit of her unique attribute ‘Necromancy’.」

In this battle, it became an impeccable iron wall that did not allow even the slightest scratch to Replica.

It was worth it.

Necromancy’s protective function is the ability to block a power of 100 with a power of 1, depending on how you use it.

Under the premise of using useless spirits, the necromancy’s protective shield can meaninglessly consume the power of the strong.

“Charging complete.”

“The skill ‘Counter Shield’ is in a state where the accumulated damage can be reflected.”

like now.

「The skill ‘Counter Shield’ releases the accumulated damage all at once.」

Kwaaang-!

I immediately released the accumulated shock with the replica’s heart sword...

「Challenger [Han Seong-yoon (僞)] completely reduces damage by consuming the spirit of her unique attribute ‘Necromancy’.」

Even this did not consume all the spirits of the replica.

I clicked my tongue at that.

‘The Murim people aren’t really helpful.’

They are the Moorim Dimensional Challengers who boasted crazy strength when facing each other...

As soon as it became a system that had to cooperate in a common ordeal, it was trolling like a ghost, so the heat was out.

Even most of them had lost their fighting spirit and were staring blankly at us.

As if you don’t know what’s going on.

‘What on earth do these guys know how to do?’

It seems like he didn’t do anything other than giving the Replica the death and dedicating the spirit.

But there was no time to ponder complaints.

That would be too...

「Challenger [Han Seong-yoon (僞)] uses the authority ‘Shunbo’.」

As soon as the counter technique disappeared, the replica immediately approached me.

Even while using the power of space movement.

At least I couldn’t pick up any equipment from the dead Murims, so I don’t have anything in my hands...

Whoa!

His abilities, which had already reached three digits, were enough to shake mountains with a light punch.

The challenger in the giant tree labyrinth, where all abilities are sealed, will die without leaving any form.

but....

“It’s not a good choice to write Sunbo right away.”

Kwaaang!

I was no different that all of my stats exceeded three digits.

Even though I received Replica’s punches with my body, no shock was transmitted to me.

It’s partly because my ability level itself is higher than the replica’s due to < Contempt for the Strong >, but...

「Automatic damage reduction is used by the skill ‘Water Shield’.」

「Automatic damage reduction is used by the skill ‘Water Shield’...」

「Automatic damage mitigation is done by the skill ‘Water Shield’...」

The reason why I was not shocked at all was that the damage reduction skill I received from Oh Chun-seok worked.

“...!?”

But did Replica not know that I would endure the punch?

The replica, which had maintained an emotionless face until now, immediately distorted its expression.

Maybe the Replica thought I would be knocked out with just one punch...

「The skill ‘Focus on Strike’ is activated.」

「The precision and destructive power of the technique used for the next blow will increase.」

It’s the opposite now that his stats have gone up by using < Contempt for the Strong >.

Aaaaaang!

When I released my left hand using Focus on Strike, the replica’s body rolled heavily on the ground, raising a cloud of dust.

「Challenger [Han Seong-yoon (僞)] completely reduces damage by consuming the spirit of her unique attribute ‘Necromancy’.」

「Challenger [Han Seong-yoon (僞)] uses the skill ‘Blood Seeker’...”

「Challenger [Han Seong-yoon (僞)] uses the skill ‘Counterattack Shield’...”

I used most of the skills that could be used to see if my existence itself was quite threatening.

But to be honest, I can’t help but laugh at it.

That would be too...

‘The skill distribution is messed up again.’

It was because I didn’t understand when to use the skill at all.

The seeker of fresh blood had to be used in such a way as to strengthen the sword or replenish stamina, and I don’t understand how to use the counterattack shield now.

The only good thing is Pacheon....

‘Even if that’s the case, it’s fine if Pacheon doesn’t give me a head-to-head match.’

Even this, the law of relativity had already been devised.

「The exclusive effect ‘Doubling’ of the Power Skill ‘Soul Source Magic Sword’ is activated.」

「Consumes divine power to increase the power of Power Skills [4] times.」

White swordsmanship.

Geug-!

The sword techniques learned from Baekhak Geomseon were strengthened several times, and the space around the sword was refracted as it was.

At that, Replica strongly showed signs of dismay.

It was worth it.

Because the refracted space pierced the ground with the replica’s frost-colored sword that should have aimed at my heart.

Kagagak!

Seeing the sword completely pierce the ground, I smiled and swung the sword.

I’m sorry-!

「Challenger [Han Seong-yoon (僞)] uses the skill ‘Last Resistance’.」

All battle victory conditions have now been met.

so....

“Let’s disappear like fakes.”

It’s time to put an end to this petty battle.

***

Surprisingly, Replica responded quickly as soon as the severed head was restored.

「Challenger [Han Seong-yoon (僞)] uses the skill ‘Star Light’.”

In the Tower, he openly used the Starlight skill that allowed him to achieve the Dragon God achievement.

Of course, the Replica, whose combat sense itself is at a serious level, couldn’t use the star light to its full output...

Pew!

It was possible to get a glimpse of the Replica’s strong will to separate from me, even though both of us would be hurt by the Holy Light.

‘Are you trying to buy time by separating me with the Holy Light?’

It was plausible.

Quickly repairing wounds with gray blood and restoring health with blood seeker is a good combo.

These two have great synergy with each other.

However, the problem was the complacent thought that I would allow it.

「The authority skill ‘Magical Operation’ is activated.」

Unlike replicas, where even the sword cannot be used properly because it has no magical power management...

「The skill ‘Focus on Strike’ is activated.」

「The precision and destructive power of the technique used for the next blow will increase.」

I, who have magical power management skills, can freely use the sword.

You can even increase skill precision and destructive power by focusing on blows...

Kwajijik!

It was only natural for the replica’s body to split in half from the sword and collapse.

“It was more boring than I thought.”

There was no time to use the buff of < Reversal of Light > provided in the myth < Hero of Reversal >.

My combat sense is weaker than I thought.

If there wasn’t a difference in stats, wouldn’t it have been easier to win than this?

Of course, it’s a meaningless assumption.

Really, it was not fun to win because of the difference in skills, but...

「I absorbed the command of the challenger ‘Han Seong-yoon (僞)’.」

「Skill has increased by 61%.」

「The mastery of the unique attribute ‘Necromancy’ has reached 100%.」

「The grade of the unique attribute ‘Necromancy’ will rise by one level.」

Anyway, winning is winning, so shouldn’t we be rewarded?

「Absorbs a spirit stronger than the user, and the judgment of power extraction begins.」

Because that’s the winner’s right.
