My Reflector Is Invincible 3

3. Is This All?

“Kuaaagh!”

A pained groan escaped the knight commander’s mouth.

Snap.

His arm bones were shattered.

It wasn’t a simple fracture.

Squirt!

Blood spurted out of his broken arm.

He was covered in wounds.

Thud.

His body moved on its own as if it didn’t belong to him.

However, the knight commander was a knight. He was a combat professional.

He knew what to do even with the pain that would make an ordinary person faint.

Rip!

He tore his clothes with his good arm and teeth. Then he tied the wound tightly.

Even if he could never hold a sword again.

He did it well enough to continue the current battle.

It was a cool judgment befitting a knight who had been through countless battlefields.

Of course, even such a veteran couldn’t understand one thing.

‘I definitely felt the sensation of hitting him.’

All the slave could do was raise his arm to defend.

‘That flimsy thing couldn’t have blocked my fist?’

The knight commander’s fist had definitely crushed the arm he had guarded.

But it was his arm that was crushed.

The knight commander quickly made a judgment.

‘He must have hidden an iron plate in his clothes.’

There were such people among the prisoners he had just killed.

Unlike those who had only small pieces, Joo-ahn must have covered his entire torso.

Even a knight would get hurt if he hit an iron plate with his bare hands.

He had died by his own hand in the end, but he seemed to have been too careless this time.

“That iron plate. I’ll cut it with my swordsmanship.”

The knight commander was a former knight.

Even if his dominant right arm was injured, it was nothing to cut that iron plate.

However, something else irritated him.

“This bastard. You attacked me after I fed and worked you? You will never die a good death.”

The knight commander pulled out his sword toward Joo-ahn.

He was about to swing his sword when he stopped in surprise. It was because of Joo-ahn’s actions.

“You… You! Stop it right now!”

Joo-ahn was touching something without even paying attention to the knight commander.

It was a painting on one side of the room.

A painting of demons and angels rushing at a man with long black hair.

He wasn’t just flustered because it was an expensive item.

The problem was what was behind the painting.

As Joo-yeon touched the painting.

Click!

With a sound, the painting slid to the side.

There, was the curator’s secret safe.

A secret that absolutely no one should have known had been opened.

The curator’s reason snapped.

“Die!”

He charged forward with bloodshot eyes.

* * *

Joo-yeon had known the location of the safe containing the contract from the beginning.

‘How can you leave it here every time without getting tired of it. You damn kid.’

The location of the slave contract was always the same.

Of course, there were times when it changed.

But most of the time, it was hidden behind something that looked like a work of art.

This time was the same.

‘Okay, now I just have to take out the contract and it’s over.’

Getting rid of the slave contract and becoming free came first.

If he didn’t do this, it would be impossible to leave this place in the first place.

So it was when Joo-yeon reached out to open the safe.

“Die!”

The curator charged forward.

Unlike before, this time with great momentum.

Joo-yeon immediately realized what the curator was trying to do.

?One Cut, Two Halves?

One of the knight’s job skills.

It was a skill that inflicted a strong slash on the opponent.

It was so powerful that it could even cut through iron plates.

Joo-yeon also remembered the skill’s ability exactly.

?One Cut, Two Halves – Knight Job Skill?

?Rank: Rare?

?Attribute: Slash?

?Effect: Increases sword’s instant damage & speed by 300%. Grants [Cut]. Cannot be dodged.?

It was quite a tricky skill.

Once the skill was activated, even dodging was impossible.

You had to run away before the skill was used, or you had to have a special defense skill.

But the reason Joo-yeon’s eyes were shining wasn’t because of the curator’s skill.

The knight’s special ability, ?Chivalry?.

In the Valantino Saga, the status of knight-type jobs varied greatly depending on whether they had ?Chivalry? or not.

Depending on the chivalry, it was possible to use similar skills to a wizard’s wide-area damage, a priest’s buffs, or an assassin’s sneak attacks.

Put simply, an ability that makes knights even more special.

However, there was no sign of chivalry from the warden.

‘A knight without ?Chivalry? is nothing but a hollow shell.’

Joo-yeon smiled at the warden running towards him.

Right at that moment.

“One-cut-two-halves!”

The warden’s sword cut Joo-yeon’s body diagonally.

Swish!

The powerful slash cut through not only Joo-yeon but also the wall behind him.

But something was strange.

It was clear that Joo-yeon’s body had been cut diagonally.

Thud!

However, it was the warden who collapsed.

His chest was cut diagonally.

“W… why?”

Ugh!

The warden knelt down and coughed up blood.

It was a wound severe enough to kill him if he didn’t receive treatment immediately.

Instead, Joo-yeon tilted his head.

“Oh? You’re not dead?”

Normally, when hit by ?One-cut-two-halves?, the body would be severed.

The warden should have been cut in half and died.

However, his body was still intact.

‘Looks like his raw toughness is good enough to withstand being cut.’

Well, he’ll be dead soon anyway.

The important thing was this.

He poured out his innermost feelings that he had been holding in for 18 years.

“Is this it? Did you really brag with just this much power?”

This slave camp existed for the entertainment of the nobles.

And the warden was the culprit who tormented the prisoners to satisfy the nobles.

Joo-yeon picked up the warden’s fallen sword.

Swoosh.

Normally, a knight’s sword would reject anyone other than its master, but it was quiet.

‘Of course. A sword of a knight without ?Chivalry? can’t possibly recognize its master.’

The others must have thought that he had ?Chivalry? since he was a retired knight, but in fact, he was a man without chivalry.

There was no way that the first enemy to appear would be strong.

It’s just a tutorial level, after all.

‘Instead, he used his innate toughness and strength to control the guards.’

The warden fumbled as if trying to get his sword back.

“Gasp… cough…”

Looking closely, it was a face that would die on its own if left alone.

Of course, it would be difficult if I just left it like this.

“I have to take revenge for the resentment of my 18 years. Ah, I have to do this first.”

Joo-yeon touched the handle of the safe containing the contract. Fortunately, it looked similar to the one in the game.

The problem was that I didn’t know the password…….

“That’s easy.”

Joo-yeon rummaged through the warden’s pockets.

He was looking for the key to the safe that the warden had hidden.

However, it didn’t come out.

“What the heck. Why isn’t this here?”

Just in case, I searched other bookcases and drawers.

However, the key to the safe did not appear.

Only other things came out.

?Bone of unknown identity?

?Tooth of unknown owner?

?Grape-flavored candy?

?Stick candy?

“Why are you carrying this stuff around?”

Still, I took everything just in case.

It was a habit from playing the game.

Even if it was a miscellaneous item, I would take it with me for the time being, thinking that I would use it someday.

In the end, Joo-yeon, who couldn’t find the key, struck the safe with the warden’s sword.

Clang!

However, not a single scratch was made. It was that hard.

In the first place, it couldn’t be opened with the strength of this skeleton-like body.

“I’ll never be able to open it unless I use my ability.”

If only the ability I gained was super strength instead of reflection, I might have been able to open the safe.

Of course, super strength is a very common trait compared to reflection.

‘But no matter how much of a country it is, it can’t break this safe with ?Reflection?.’

That’s because Reflection is a skill that can only be used when the opponent attacks.

The warden, who could deal that much damage, was already in a state of semi-corpse.

Even if he was alive, it would have been impossible to open this safe using Reflection.

Because it’s still difficult for him to deal damage to the safe while facing the knight.

“What should I do…….”

I have to open this to get the slave contract.

Should I just carry this out myself, even if it’s dangerous?

If I carry this heavy thing around, I’ll be caught by the pursuers right away?

At that moment, light poured out of the crystal ball in the warden’s room.

-Warden! Something big has happened! We can’t suppress the prisoners’ rebellion!

-The prison guards and the guards in Block A are also missing!

It was a communication from the soldiers guarding the entrance.

It was clear that Joo-yeon’s defeat of the warden and the guards had created a butterfly effect.

But this was not a simple problem.

– It seems difficult to suppress! We need more troops!

– Captain! We need support! If you don’t help us right now… Ugh!

– The captain is not answering… For now, let’s request support from the nearby lords…

I couldn’t hear the rest.

But looking at the situation, it seemed like he was trying to request support from the nearby lords.

If that happened, it would be difficult for Joo-yeon to escape.

‘If I don’t get out quickly, I’ll be stuck here.’

But I couldn’t just carry this heavy safe out with me.

‘It’s different from the strategy in the game, so the risk is greater, but should I lure the enemy from outside?’

I was at my wit’s end when…

“Excuse me, is that safe your goal?”

“……!”

Joo-yeon calmly turned around.

He was a prisoner who had been in this room since he first arrived, but he had not paid any attention to him.

He was barely standing, as if he was about to die.

Joo-yeon shrugged at him.

“Why? Are you interested in the safe??”

“Of course not. What good would it do me to be greedy with this body? I just want to repay your kindness.”

“Kindness?”

“If you hadn’t come a little sooner… I might have really died.”

That was true.

Joo-yeon had barged in when he was about to get his neck cut off.

He would have definitely died if it hadn’t been for Joo-yeon.

Only then did Joo-yeon look at him with interest.

“So how do you plan to repay me? By opening this thing?”

“Would you be okay with receiving that much for saving your life?”

“Huh?”

He said that, but it was quite a sturdy safe.

How could he possibly open a safe that wouldn’t even get a scratch if it was dropped from a building or a pillar?

However, the man calmly approached the safe.

“It’s sturdy, but it’s not so great that it’s difficult to open. Look at this.”

It’s not a great safe…

?Thief Job Skill – Safe Cracking?

?Success!?

“……!?”

Clank!

The safe opened.
