Acquired the Scam Rune in the Academy

Chapter 92: Stained Rock Pile (4) (2)

In Kim Chae-eun’s opinion, Do Jae-hyun had a talent for magic runes.

He knew exactly when to use which rune.

When he used [Fragmented Earth Garden], he changed the battle structure to his advantage, and when he used [Fiery Flame], he set fire to the trees to hunt monsters.

Especially when he used various body enhancement support runes and [Stealth], the hunt ended too easily with a surprise attack.

Kim Chae-eun didn’t know much about those runes.

But even without her deep involvement in the battle…

She could tell that Do Jae-hyun’s talent was outstanding and strong.

‘It’s good to have a lot of runes…!’

Actually, about Do Jae-hyun’s various runes, she didn’t have much doubt.

In the first place, it’s a world where Holders and monsters don’t make sense.

In this world where their existence itself is unbelievable…

There was nothing strange about having a more special rune or a more peculiar rune Holder.

Rather, she was happy that Do Jae-hyun became stronger through it and that she could be a little safer thanks to him.

‘I don’t want to get hurt….’

She still remembers it.

The day Do Jae-hyun protected her from Ha Do-kwon.

-Don’t think strange thoughts. Hold my hand.

I was very grateful, and he was very reliable that day…

But the moment he was about to be hit by berserk Ha Do-kwon.

Kim Chae-eun thought her heart would stop.

She was worried that Do Jae-hyun might get hurt because of her.

She was worried that he might get hurt trying to protect her.

The reason she tried to learn from Jeong Seon-young in any way possible was because she wanted to help him a little.

Awoo…

Awoo, awoo-

The many wolves were once again lying dead on the ground.

This time he added an earth attribute magic rune, but it was still an overwhelming battle that ended with only attacks without a single defense.

Do Jae-hyun, who seemed to have used quite a bit of strength, was breathing heavily.

“You worked hard, Jae-hyun!”

Kim Chae-eun tried to approach him with a bright smile.

But for some reason, Do Jae-hyun’s expression wasn’t good.

His eyes narrowed slightly, then widened.

His gaze was directed behind Kim Chae-eun.

“Chae-eun, behind…!!”

Do Jae-hyun shouted as if his throat would burst.

Roar…!!

She thought the battle was over, but there was a monster hiding in the bushes.

B-grade monster, Hide Wolf.

It is a peculiar type of wolf monster that does not attack first and possesses [Stealth], a common rune of assassin types.

It doesn’t show itself well even during the battle between the Holder and the monster.

It waits quietly and waits for the optimal attack timing.

Because of its characteristic that lives up to its name, it was a monster that was hard to find without a search type rune of archer type.

‘Magic barrier…!!’

Kim Chae-eun quickly pulled up her magic.

Considering the speed and strength of the Hide Wolf’s attack, even if she creates a [Magic Barrier] right now, it doesn’t seem to have much effect…

In this situation, she had to do something anyway.

Roar, roar-!!

The howling and momentum approaching nearby.

And the unfinished [Magic Barrier].

The moment just before being scratched by its fierce claws.

“Huh?”

Kim Chae-eun felt a hand around her shoulder.

Clang-

Clang, clang-!!

Do Jae-hyun who had a shield in his hand before she knew it…

After arriving first using a movement rune.

He hugged her and used [Iron Wall Defense].

Timing matched at the last minute.

Fortunately, the Hide Wolf’s attack didn’t reach them.

It was another save by Do Jae-hyun.

‘Ah, he hugged me…!!’

But Kim Chae-eun didn’t have time to think about such a process.

Do Jae-hyun hugged her!

Only that one sentence flashed in her head.

She couldn’t think of anything else.

Only that fact was stuck in her head.

There were times when their shoulders bumped into each other while cooking together, their hands briefly touched when picking up ingredients, or if they were really lucky and sauce got on their lips while eating food, they would wipe it off…

But skinship where he hugs her shoulder to protect her, even in Kim Chae-eun’s imagination, it didn’t exist!

She forgot to pull up her magic. She barely managed to hold back her pounding heart.

“Explode!”

As if to soothe her feelings, Do Jae-hyun’s angry shout came out.

He spat out an oration and stabbed his sword into the body of the Hide Wolf who had already been beaten up badly,

Soon after, condensed magic exploded out.

[Sky-Shattering Heavenly Sword].

It was Do Jae-hyun’s ultimate skill that Kim Chae-eun saw for the first time,

“Explode you damn wolf. Explode.”

Do Jae-hyun seemed quite angry at the fact that Kim Chae-eun might have been in danger. He kept stabbing his sword into the body of the Hide Wolf who had already become a corpse.

Even including swearing which he usually doesn’t do much.

But for Kim Chae Eun who had already lost her senses.

That wasn’t very important, No, rather it was good,

‘Hehe. Even swearing is cool….’

Kim Chae-eun confirmed.

This Seoraksan Mountain field hunting is definitely as she thought, a hiking date.
