Chapter 391 – Counterterrorism Evaluation (9)
*
Right after the preparation time was over, Kim Tae-pung immediately gathered the people and headed for the entrance.
The story ended with Yang Ji-seok attacking the rooftop after they drew attention from the entrance.
He once again checked his members.
4 tanks that can block attacks from the front, and 4 that can attack from a distance. And one supporter to use a buff on himself.
Among them, the most important person was Jung Soo-jin, who could use buffs.
‘Because it seems difficult to handle Kim Si-woo with my abilities.’
Before the test, as a result of replaying the match between Kim Si-woo and Kim Tae-yeon several times, he had no choice but to admit that he was on a higher level than himself.
Yang Ji-seok didn’t seem to want to admit it, but I have to admit it.
In case Kim Si-woo comes to the curtain, he put his buffer, Lim Soo-jin, in his party.
‘With Lim Soo-jin’s buff ability, I’ll be able to handle Kim Si-woo.’
It is said that Su-ah, who is on the red team, can also use the buff ability, but it is not comparable to Soo-jin Lim.
Other abilities might be inferior, but the buff that strengthens others was one of the cadets that was selected as a high level even within the academy.
In the beginning, there were only a few cadets with support abilities, so cadets could be called nobles if they were nobles.
He had the disadvantage of not being able to maintain the buff for a long time due to the high consumption of mana, but it was enough to defeat him within that time.
The rest were to protect Lim Soo-jin, and Kim Tae-pung, who confirmed Lim Soo-jin’s location once again, entered the entrance of the department store.
As expected, it was not difficult to dispel the security magic installed at the entrance, but their purpose was to attract the attention of the opponent.
Kim Tae-pung partly touched the magic circle and made it ring.
—Wheein!!! Hee-eee-ying!!!
“As expected, it seems that there is only notification magic.”
“Who is over there?”
“Have you read our numbers?”
I thought it would be unexpected to enter the entrance, but someone was already waiting for me.
That person is Siwoo Kim.
‘Did you expect us to enter the entrance?’
Was their plan predicted by the other person? Kim Tae-pung felt something strange while distributing his mana to see if there was an ambush cadet nearby.
That will be too. There was no one around except Kim Si-woo.
Did they expect them to come through the entrance, but came alone?
Should I be confident or arrogant? However, his relaxed attitude made me feel uncomfortable for some reason.
I know it’s a skill worth recognizing, but is it possible to stop it alone against them?
‘I might be in a bad mood.’
Kim Tae-pung checked Im Soo-jin’s location and then walked forward.
“Did you know we were coming this way?”
“I just came here just in case.”
As expected, Kim Si-woo answered with a relaxed attitude, and the other cadets frowned as if they were offended by Kim Si-woo’s attitude.
If the alarm magic goes off, is it still waiting for support?
‘Maybe he’s trying to pass the time.’
When the cadets around him came to support Kim Si-woo, it was difficult to guarantee victory.
So, here I had to make a choice. Will he attack and defeat Kim Si-woo, who is alone, or will he wait until more people gather for his original purpose?
“Typhoon, what are you going to do?”
“I’m alone, so if we all attack together, can we catch it?”
“… “
I thought that if it was Kim Si-woo, who has a belligerent personality, he would definitely run first. He just stood there.
He looked so open-minded that he looked like he could take it down at any moment.
‘But…Why am I so embarrassed?’
In the midst of hesitation, time continued to flow. The situation where Yang Ji-seok and his party promised to move 10 minutes after they entered the first floor.
Because of Kim Si-woo’s attitude, things started to get complicated in his head.
Looking at Kim Tae-pung, Kim Si-woo shakes his sword.
“Are you going to stay there?”
“That bastard!!”
Some excited by the provocation launched an attack, but Kim Si-woo avoided it with his unique circus-like movements.
Unless you go closer, it only consumes mana, but it seems difficult to inflict great damage.
“It’s not even a mudfish, so why doesn’t it fit!!”
“Cheer up!”
“Everybody stop!! Don’t lose your strength and stay still!”
A few people shouted as if excited by Kim Si-woo’s provocation, but Kim Tae-pung calmed the party members down so they wouldn’t rush.
‘Let’s trust Yang Ji-seok. Even if I tie Kim Si-woo’s feet here, the goal will be achieved.’
I did this, but when Kim Tae-pung showed no signs of rushing at me, Kim Si-woo exclaimed inwardly.
The moment Kim Tae-pung rushes at him by deliberately showing a defenseless appearance and provoking him, he was going to aim for the back, but he manages his emotions as much as possible and maintains a distance that can protect the cadet in the back.
I didn’t worry too much about it because I had prepared for an intrusion at the top anyway.
Because I believe in Kang Min-ji and Soo-ah. That’s why I knew that nothing would get worse if we just confronted each other like this.
‘Rather, I can’t stand it.’
It wasn’t right for me to do nothing when the enemy was right in front of me.
As darkness began to settle around him, Kim Tae-pung shouted loudly.
“Come!! All defensively!”
“Mmm…Are you crazy? Are you really coming alone?!”
The moment the blue moon rose, Siwoo Kim disappeared.
Cheongwolbo rushes forward, hiding in the moonlight.
The moment the blue moon flashed, Siwoo Kim, who had been a considerable distance away, suddenly appeared from behind.
“Everyone raise your shield!!”
When Kim Si-woo swung his sword, a huge slash occurred.
Kim Tae-pung, who had been preparing in advance for a slashing attack like the blue moonlight and Kim Si-woo’s attack, ran in that direction and raised his mana.
If it were to cut off one’s own mana, he would be able to sever Kim Si-woo’s Cheongwol Cham.
A huge slash flew towards the blue team, and Kim Tae-pung bit his teeth and swung his sword.
—Passs..
A slash that disappears in a very unattractive way compared to the appearance that seems to devour the surroundings.
‘As expected.. Isn’t even Kim Si-woo not good enough for my abilities?’
The moment he thought so, Kim Si-woo, who was in front of him, dispersed like smoke.
“Sorry. I’ve been here from the beginning.”
“I… Damn it!!!”
“Tae… Typhoon!!!”
“Blood..Damaged!!!”
When the illusion created by Hwanwol disappeared, the same slash as before was flying toward the blue team.
Kim Si-woo’s attack, falling toward the floor so he couldn’t defend it like before, couldn’t stop it even if he moved now.
‘Shit!! If that’s the case, even Sujin!!’
Even if the other guys didn’t know, there was a chance of victory if Lim Su-jin had to keep it.
Later, other cadets made barriers and lifted shields, but they were torn apart as if they were meaningless in front of Kim Si-woo’s attack.
——Quaaaaang!!!!!
A scream rang out with a tremendous roar.
“Soojin, are you okay?!”
“I… I’m fine, but the kids… !”
The dust cleared, and the lobby, which had become a mess, was revealed.
Blue team cadets were scattered on the pillars that were split in half and the shields that could not withstand Kim Si-woo’s attack and were shattered.
The cadets disappeared along with the brightly shining protective shield, and it seemed that they were probably fatally injured and moved out of the field.
In a situation where a large number of people were eliminated in one attack, there was only one person left except for himself and Lim Su-jin.
“To be honest, I was confused at first. That’s your ability In the end, if it doesn’t reach, then it’s meaningless? It’s the first time I’ve seen this ability, so I don’t think it would have been a big problem if I hadn’t panicked.”
In order to sever his magic power, he had to cut it with his own sword after all. You can’t cut the attack that falls to the floor like before.
“And. You can’t interfere indirectly.”
With Kim Si-woo’s words, he raised his sword to defend against the attack flying behind him.
‘Could it be… A unique area?!’
I thought the space where the full moon rises was just an external image, but it wasn’t.
A B-class hunter is a skill that means a wall that can never be crossed. What that meant was simple.
He said that Kim Si-woo overcame the wall he could not cross.
“It seems that defense is possible.”
“Class A… Hunter.”
“Don’t be too hard on yourself. To be honest, your skills deserve recognition.”
“… Sujin.”
“Huh!!”
“Tae-seok! Sujin on your back and get out of here!!!!”
When Lim Soo-jin used the buff, his body felt full of energy. A physical ability that can’t be compared to before.
This was Im Soo-jin’s buff and trump card.
Kim Tae-pung immediately ran towards Kim Si-woo. Although it was a short time, I was able to move faster than before, perhaps because my physical abilities were dramatically strengthened.
Perhaps because he was in a strengthened state, he was able to attack faster and stronger than before.
In the end, what matters to prosecutors is physical ability, and now that they can use faster and stronger power than Kim Si-woo, they will be able to catch up with the gap.
In the middle, sharp blades flew from the air, but he was able to avoid them using his increased agility.
“Does it strengthen reflexes as well?”
“Let’s see how long I can afford it!!”
He may be behind in swordsmanship, but thanks to Lim Soo-jin’s buff, he can see and react to Kim Si-woo’s sword.
Of course, it was impossible to avoid all attacks using its own area, so the wounds were increasing, but with overwhelming physical ability, it was pushing Kim Si-woo little by little.
Although small wounds continued to form on both arms, he was able to withstand it by strengthening his body with magic.
In fact, because of the difference in strength, Kim Si-woo is pushed out little by little.
I didn’t know if I would be able to defeat Kim Si-woo if I continued like this. If they catch Kim Si-woo here, they will surely win the evaluation.
The moment swords collided, Kim Si-woo’s sword was slightly thrown out as if he couldn’t withstand his own strength.
‘A gap.. If you aim here!!’
He could win by simply inserting his sword into a clearly visible gap.
The moment he extended his sword like that, his survival instinct sent out a danger signal.
The moment he stepped back, trusting his intuition, Kim Si-woo’s sword, which he thought was clearly a gap, suddenly moved like a snake and grazed under his neck.
—A tingling sensation and blood running down the throat.
“Haha… “
Kim Tae-pung realized with that tingling sensation.
The fact that Kim Si-woo’s body is clean compared to himself full of scars.
Unlike himself, who had rough breathing, Kim Si-woo’s breathing was not disturbed at all.
‘I should have run away right away.’
——Quaaaaang!!!
‘You have to trust that child. Ha… ‘
With the sound of an explosion coming from above, Kim Tae-pung was eliminated.
