[Thefern Fence]
[Recommendation level: Lv.450]
The information about the rupture appeared.
Even when players moved.
Many people expected that the star of [Thefern Fence] would be Union.
Or Shining.
It couldnt be helped.
An emerging force threatened the current status of the two guilds.
Gaon, Inazuma, Berserker.
The big alliance had been attacking other ruptures for days.
Ill give up Thefern Fence.
The same goes for us. I dont want to be a sidekick.
Gyvers recovery comes first.
Other giant guilds were no different.
If you got caught between Union and Shining.
It was obvious that it would be difficult to get experience points, let alone level up.
By the way.
Lee Hoyeol. No, why is Hoyeol-nim in such a shabby rupture?
Hoyeol appeared in the [Thefern Fence] rupture.
With a huge army of spirits!
They didnt know what was going on, but
The faces of the Nettuber players turned bright.
Crazy. I dont know whats happening, but its no joke.
Its spirits that Ive never seen in Arcana before!
Thanks to Hoyeol-nim, my eyes feel good.
Hoyeols appearance alone made them happy beyond words.
Not only that, spirits were there as well.
Wasnt it a spectacle that surpassed the competition between Union and Shining?
Soon, chats from viewers poured in.
-
Its all good, but dont get too close and get discouraged for no reason
It might be fine with other players, but lets not touch Lee Hoyeol
We need to respect them. How much have we benefited from it?
They were Nettuber players who made a living with their wits.
Besides, were they crazy?
No one approached Hoyeol without asking for permission.
Of course. The most important thing is formality.
Moreover, the situation was not suitable for that right now.
The figure of Hoyeol standing upright in front of dozens of spirits.
It was a more believable picture when viewed from a distance.
Nettuber players expressed pure admiration.
Why did he look for this rupture?
The people wearing robes are the mages of the Mage Tower, right? They are the only ones who can summon spirits.
With Hoyeol-nims level, he probably didnt come here to hunt.
Of course, apart from that, questions still remained.
But their curiosity didnt last long.
Soon, Hoyeol began to move away from the group.
He approached [Thefern Scarecrow].
Huh? Is he here to hunt?
Hoyeols level was estimated to be 900.
On the other hand, [Thefern Scarecrow] was only level 450.
Even if he hunted hundreds of thousands of them, his level wouldnt go up
Why was Hoyeol trying to hunt [Thefern Scarecrow]?
Pulling his sword from the beginning?
Oh, hes fighting differently than usual?
Ah, what is that???
Clang
It wasnt until Hoyeol raised his sword.
That some people could guess the reason.
Nettuber players and explorers.
Oh, I see!
Yusra Kingdom.
Golden Calf Tavern, a corner in front of Golden Palace Square.
Park Hwigang, who was watching the broadcast on the screen, was one of them.
Thefern Scarecrow is a counter-type monster!
It was the knowledge of the explorer who had traveled throughout the Arcana continent!
Depending on who the opponent is, it has the characteristic of transforming into the most difficult type for the opponent. Of course, it can only change to one type at a time. Its not that difficult to deal with if you make a good party
As you could see, Hoyeol was alone.
Of course, there was a huge level gap between them.
It wouldnt be difficult to deal with just one scarecrow.
In fact, Hoyeols movements were full of ease.
Gulp
His throat gulped.
Lakid emptied the can of beer in one go.
Even if he couldnt recognize the kids gathered there.
He could recognize that one.
The fierce sword aura had become even more refined.
But not only Hoyeol could use that kind of sword aura.
He was the chief among the monstrous Mage Tower bastards?
Wasnt that cheating?
Even at the no-rules Coliseum, it would be a foul.
Tsk. He does all the cool things by himself.
Lakid had grown to the point that he got grumpy for no reason.
Not knowing his burning feelings inside.
Park Hwigang continued with a more evocative face.
Its a different story if those Thefern Scarecrows come in groups. No matter what the player does, one of the scarecrows will be perfectly capable of parrying the players attack!
Like he said.
Thefern Scarecrow was a counter-type monster.
Even just dealing with one of them, party hunting was recommended.
What if you ended up surrounded by those monsters like that?
Regardless of your level, it can get quite tiring.
No, it seemed that Hoyeol was already in a tiring situation.
Thefern Scarecrows were already gathering around Hoyeol.
Only then did the corners of Lakids mouth rise.
Yeah Try your best. You should also crumple up that shit foam.
Lakid had a quick mind when it came to battle.
Listening to Park Hwigangs commentary.
No matter how great Hoyeol was, Lakid estimated that it would not be easy.
Hes going to smear his clean face.
Kuha!
But Lakid, who was laughing loudly, was unaware.
In order to take measures to protect himself.
How many wells has Hoyeol built so far?
Even if there were a lot of counter-type monsters.
Hoyeol poured it all out.
This meant he couldnt exceed the abilities such as magic, [skill], and {nature}.
T-Thats ridiculous!
Except for [{oddity}]].
Thanks to that, even though Hoyeol was surrounded by Thefern Scarecrows.
The dignity that was ingrained in Hoyeol didnt get damaged in the slightest.
Wow, its just on a different level
Whats this? Is he taking the Thefern Scarecrow as a sparring partner??
Hes using level 450 as a practice match
Cratlle!
In the end, Lakid stormed out of his seat.
From Hoyeols appearance to ability.
There should be a limit to unfairness. Such a bad luck!!
.
.
.
There should be a limit to surprises!
Starting with the Qirnberg Machine Tower.
The emergence of the new World Tree.
The oppression of the demon kings.
She found out that Hoyeol was involved in all the incidents.
She thought she was sufficiently surprised.
She didnt know there was still a surprise left.
Crackle
Spitting out flames from his breath.
Fire Drake sniffed.
You must be really surprised. You cant even say youre hungry, Peiyan.
Fire Drake was right.
Was it because the beggar in her stomach fainted out of shock?
The stomach, which had been rumbling constantly, calmed down.
By the way
Peiyan looked at Hoyeol.
The use of {nature} ability through magic and spirits was not surprising.
Hoyeol was the chief mage of the Mage Tower.
What surprised Peiyan was the swordsmanship.
Even if I dont have eyes to see it, I can tell.
Thefern.
One of the Top 10 Wonders of the Arcana continent.
It was an area that even the League of Explorers hadnt been able to complete its exploration of.
Above all, the monsters who appeared there were all bizarre.
Even just the scarecrow that appeared on the outermost fence of Thefern.
Its quite tricky.
The scarecrow couldnt be damaged by mediocre swordplay. In other words, it was Hoyeols swordsmanship that wasnt normal.
I told you, didnt I? That rumor is true!
About him from being a great family?
Thats right! Otherwise, how could he do that?
Why did she have to listen to the chirping sounds?
Maybe it was because Peiyan didnt think differently from them.
Above all, Peiyan knew the importance of talent.
I dont want to admit it, but thats why lineage is important.
Descendants of the mage family were famous in each continent and region.
Most of the mages who entered the Mage Tower were like that.
Occasionally, there were exceptions like Senior Banglet, but
The number of exceptions was extremely small.
Chief Marcelos ability also comes from his family history.
However, there was a limit to the power of the lineage.
Just as a mage family couldnt produce a swordsman who could handle aura.
Likewise, the opposite was impossible!
Knowing that fact.
Her questions about Hoyeol couldnt help but grow bigger.
Arent you too versatile?
Didnt it seem like he had all the good things?
*
My ears had been itchy lately.
But I could generously understand.
Everyone must be wondering what I was doing.
900 level? Me?
Anyway, the rumor was the problem.
I, the person concerned, didnt say anything.
Before I knew it, my level was at least 900.
It was a grossly burdensome overestimation.
No, if you looked at the recent increase in experience points.
It was a number that made me question whether that was even possible.
Of course, I cant tell the truth with my own mouth.
Even if I blamed it on my tiring personality.
Someone would persistently ask.
Wouldnt it be okay to just disclose the ranking information?
Then instead of giving an answer, Id just show them my status window.
[Name: Grandfel Claudie Arpheus Romeo]
[Title: The Last Adventurer]
[Class: Demon hunter]
[Level: 425]
[Stat]
Strength: 70 / Agility: 75 / Mana: 385 / Luck: 6 / Aesthetic: Low
[Point: 0]
Disclosing private ranking information to the world?
Yeah, it wasnt a difficult task.
No, it was rather a good thing.
It would be better for both parties to correct unnecessary misunderstandings early on.
However, even if I had to die, I would never see the name [Grandfel Claudie Arpheus Romeo] pop up in the player rankings!
I probably would die out of embarrassment.
Yeah, this wasnt Grandfels pride.
It was myLee Hoyeolspride at stake.
If thats the case, Id rather just achieve level 900.
Knowing that fact.
I hunted the charging [Thefern Scarecrow].
[Natural Enemy Relationship] was not activated.
In order to fully test my power, I didnt use bi-herb.
You did well to take out your sword from the beginning, Hoyeol.
As expected, a class with no screws.
Demon hunter.
Its fast.
I raised my strength and agility stats to the maximum through class quests.
I had invested all the points I earned from leveling up into mana.
[Thefern Scarecrow: Lv.450]
It was hard to keep up with it based purely on stats.
Not only that, this guy was as tricky as I had heard.
Counter type monster. Depending on the attack, it builds resistance to it.
Swoosh
Glowing aura.
I couldnt believe it survived even after being hit with a sword that maximized its attack power.
Ill compliment you.
The famous Grandfel evaluated it that way.
Indeed, one of the Top 10 Wonders, Thefern.
Even in the Arcana continent, it was an unidentified area.
But there was no opponent more suitable than that.
You have a knack for blocking. However.
Goo
My mana emerged at the same time as the sword.
If it blocked one, I could pour out two at the same time.
So what if one more monster rushed in?
Can you block this too?
I just had to pour one more thing there.
How many wells had I dug so far?
Without having to mention [{oddity}], there were dozens of them.
Its worth a try.
No matter how screwed up the demon hunter class was, I had an absolute superiority in stats.
I was about 100 points ahead of players at the same level.
Class quests, bi-herbs.
What do you think about the result of my struggles?
Patter
I recited at the collapsing Tetpern Scarecrow.
It wasnt bad for warm-up.
Those words were spoken calmly, in contrast to the overwhelming emotions.
Though, other people,
It was indeed a warm-up like you said.
Including Haiel, didnt recognize it.
I knew.
This is truly a touching development, Hoyeol!
Now at least there was no need to be pathetic in front of monsters of the same level.
I felt overwhelmed, so I wanted to enjoy this sense of accomplishment a little more.
The back of my head stung.
When I looked back, I saw Peiyan and other mages.
They could communicate with spirits for the first time in a while.
Why were they staring at me so intently?
I didnt know why.
All right, then.
I couldnt make them wait forever.
Lets return to the Mage Tower.
Rumble
For some reason.
In an instant, the sky of the rupture was filled with dark clouds.
I went ahead and tidied up my clothes.
The sky is howling.
I was glad no one was listening.
I would have cried faster than the sky would.
Anyway, lets hurry.
Even if I had the all-round [warmth] buff, it couldnt stop the rain
.
.
.
The high-ranking fire spirit was the first to notice the scent.
It was Fire Drake.
Fire Drake, who was lying on his stomach, pulled himself up.
Peiyan. I feel an unusual energy.
At that, Peiyan looked around belatedly.
And she noticed.
The presence of a miscellaneous spirit hovering around.
Peiyans pupils shook.
This sign?
The dark spirit!
It was a spirit that even Peiyan, the senior mage of spirit school, had never witnessed.
Therefore, all Peiyan could think of was the knowledge about spiritology she had as a senior.
Dark spirit was different from spirits of other attributes since their birth.
The dark spirit was a being that only appeared when certain conditions were met.
Peiyan was shocked as she remembered the conditions.
She had forgotten because of the commotion.
This is!
This was the territory of Thefern.
Dark spirits are beings born out of deep darkness. The only places they appear are areas that have not yet been revealed to the world. A place whose origin is unknown, that place was their origin
Top 10 Wonders of the Arcana continent.
Even the League of Explorers hadnt completed its exploration of [Thefern].
It was an area that met that first condition.
Plus the tricky second condition.
The area must be full of communion.
Communion
Thanks to the spirits summoned by the mages including Peiyan herself.
There was enough communion in the [Thefern Fence] rupture.
Peiyan tucked her hand into her sleeve.
I felt like an idiot.
She wasnt bringing out snacks or anything like that.
What she took out was a magic tool, a wand.
She had gotten distracted elsewhere and overlooked the risk variables.
Peiyan bit her lower lip.
At this rate, I am going to be disqualified as a senior mage.
Just like Fire Drake.
The spirits noticed something unusual.
Though the skilled mages seemed to have prepared themselves.
The apprentice mages looked bewildered.
Peiyan felt responsible.
At least we must prevent adventurers from getting caught up.
Apart from everything else, the reputation of the Mage Tower couldnt be tarnished.
She didnt want to make a commotion but she couldnt avoid it.
As she said, the dark spirit was a miscellaneous spirit.
Its impossible for it to communicate with ordinary people.
Indeed.
Miscellaneous mana.
Only those who could handle the right mana spoken in black magic could attempt to communicate with dark spirits. A person with that level of right mana
The only person I know is Senior Matis.
But Matis was not here.
So Peiyan clenched her teeth.
As expected, I have no choice but to drive it out.
I understand. Peiyan.
With all our might. We must prevent the adventurers from getting caught up.
However, Piayans solemn determination was useless.
Someone who could replace Matis position.
No, there was someone who possessed right mana that surpassed him.
