Chapter 131 – Heavenly Demon (5)
An amphitheater reminiscent of the Colosseum.
There, a frivolous-looking man and a cold-looking woman, both wearing Hawaiian shirts with floral patterns on a black background, entered.
“Whiyu. People are no joke.”
“Of course. A fight between the Maestro, one of the youngest candidates for the prize, and the successor of the Ivory Tower from the beginning?”
Responding to the man’s words, the woman looked around her.
It was full of people around.
Normally, it would be crowded with general spectators, but in preparation for a large number of people, Hero Academy designed it so that it could be seen from the outside using state-of-the-art holograms, so there were few general spectators.
‘It’s really rare. How are you? Gwangseongja with a heavy butt also came?’
Kwang Seong-ja, the owner of Changchun, called the three major guilds in Korea.
Perhaps he came to see his son. That man seems cold-hearted more than anyone else, but he’s not good enough for his family.
“Whiyu. It’s not really a joke this time. All three guilds are here. In Changchun, even Kwangseongja with a heavy butt came out. This recruiting match is going to be pretty tough.”
“Is it only the three major guilds? Look over there Noblesse and Galaxy came to the US, and Zheng Tianmeng and Gupa, the Sega alliances, came to China. Even the Knights of the Holy Cross who protect the West?”
“What can Jeong Chun-Meng do? Not too long ago, the Chinese academy collapsed. Ah, I found it. This is our seat.”
The man sat down and watched the stadium.
Two boys were competing in the arena. A boy who leads by using spears and swords, and a student who is uncharacteristically tall.
“The Chinese students had poor grades, but they fight much better.”
“I mainly look at practical skills, and I see both Hero Academy. But even taking that into account, the students at Hero Academy are in transition. Most of them are just shiny gemstones. Can you believe that their grades are pretty good even in the top 20?”
“… Really?”
At the man’s words, the woman slowly nodded her head.
Gwangseongja came to see his son, but there must also be a purpose in it to make the plate bigger on the spot for the beings to be recruited here.
“Ah, it’s over.”
At the woman’s words, the man turned his eyes to the arena.
When Gangnam, a muscular boy, grabs onto the spearhead and charges forward, Tao responds with another weapon. However, once gaining momentum, Gangnam’s attacks were inconclusive.
“No, I missed it.”
“What?”
“Chinese kids move surprisingly well. It just missed from a very close range.”
As if to prove the woman’s words, Tao Li jumped up and grabbed the sword.
“I thought the match between the other kids besides the Maestro and the Seven-Colored Wizard, which is scheduled for today’s match, was a gimmick, but it’s more fun than I thought.”
“Gyereuk?”
“Yes, Gyereuk. Should it be the same as egg rolls? Egg rolls served before the main menu. If you don’t have it, it’s empty, if you have it, you eat it, but you don’t bother looking for it. But the more I look at it, the more I think about it.”
“Are the other kids like the main menu?”
“Uh. Egg rolls are egg rolls, but should I say they are as delicious as the main menu? Oh, let’s begin.”
At the end of the man’s words, the surroundings became quiet.
It was proof that everyone was watching this match.
A silver-haired nobleman with a somewhat drowsy expression appeared.
On the other side, a woman with faded silver hair, the prospective owner of the ivory tower, appeared.
“No kidding. I can’t see anything.”
“Even with your ‘eyes’?”
“Uh.”
The woman was surprised when the man said with his complexion hardened.
This is because men have excellent ‘eyes’ as a discriminator. Thanks to him, he was able to come here.
And if you could avoid his eyes, it meant that your opponents were at least in the top ranks.
“It’s a pitiful yet interesting confrontation.”
“Sorry? Why?”
“Why? This is the best highlight.”
When the man said it as if he was sorry, the woman smiled.
“Well. I don’t think so.”
“Yes? Are you expecting a fight between Lee Si-woo and Yoon Chae-rin?”
“Uh.”
The man tilted his head.
From a man’s point of view, Lee Si-woo’s growth was beyond imagination. With just one theory, he was at the level of an unsung genius who passed the Hero Academy, but beating Han Jong-woo was just as amazing and shocking.
‘But the opponent is Yoon Chae-rin.’
He was a monster at the top of the septum.
No matter how much the man thought about it, he couldn’t draw a picture of her losing.
“The match begins!”
The fairies lowered their hands.
It was the declaration of the start of the match.
When the fairies announced the declaration of the match, the magic power on the arena rapidly expanded. The space around Yoon Seung-ha shuddered and all sorts of spirits appeared.
Fire, Water, Wind, Earth, Lightning, Ice, Gold, Metal, Poison, Nothing, Wood, Heavy, Fire, Darkness, Light, Sound, Spirit, Star . A total of 17 elemental spirits appeared.
“… Wait, how many spirits did Yoon Seung-ha work half a year ago? Weren’t you fourteen? Check it out quickly!”
“Crazy, the number of active spirits has increased significantly since half a year?”
The scouts started moving in a fuss.
That’s why the performance Yoon Seung-ha just showed was so amazing. Among the fairies born with affinity for spirits, even those who are called elite have at most 3-4 fairies who will be with them for the rest of their lives.
The spirits that Yoon Seung-ha summoned stayed around him.
As if waiting for his instructions.
“Maestro…”
Ruler of the battlefield.
Yoon Seung-ha lowered his hand. As if in response, the spirits inflated their bodies and attacked Eunsua with all kinds of elements.
***
Yoon Seung-ha summoned the spirit corps.
There are 17 of them.
It’s a number that doesn’t make sense. It wasn’t like this half a year ago. Eun Soo-ah smiled bitterly at the thought of that on the other side of her.
If she hadn’t run around the dungeon with Siwoo Lee, she would have been pushed helplessly. But now, in the vulgar language, I was just ‘rubbing’.
“Is that the end?”
“Yes. I think this will be enough for now.”
Yoon Seung-ha laughed lazily and provoked.
Instead of her exasperation, Eunsoo calmly picked her breath.
She and she remembered Papa.
Then, miraculously, all the negative sensations were washed away. Raised her magic.
Traits support themselves. And the recently acquired attribute “Lapis Lazuli” Started responding. It is a force that cannot yet be properly controlled. An unstable, self-indulgent force.
“After.”
She evened her breath and developed her seven colors. Just in time, Yoon Seung-ha lowered his hand. Colorful elements swelled up.
Woo woo woo-!
Space vibrates.
It fixes, reverses, flows, coexists, fluctuates, distorts, and denies. As the seven concepts were intertwined and repulsed, a dazzling sword of seven colors appeared.
One feature is added here.
“The Origin of Mystery”.
The characteristics that his papa Lee Si-woo had obtained responded to him. The seven-colored sword emitted a more brilliant color. Even so, the amount of mana consumed decreased and became more powerful.
Profit.
「The Origin of Mystery」 Fit well with its own characteristics. As if it were a trait born for him, he responded to Eun Soo-ah’s seven colors.
Colorful attacks were pouring in front of my eyes.
Awesome profit!
Space is distorted It was only holding it, because the concept and magical power contained in it were so powerful. Eunsoo-ah aimed the seven colors in front of her. She did and she unleashed very little power.
Wow!
Seven dazzling colors emit light and occupy the space. The colorful attacks disappeared in an instant.
The surroundings were quiet.
It was a pleasant silence.
One of Yoon Seung-ha’s eyebrows went up, probably because he didn’t know how to stop it so easily.
Eun Soo-ah raised the corner of her mouth and rushed at Yoon Seung-ha.
***
Friday.
I went to the training ground for the last inspection.
A sword floated around.
However, the size of the sword was huge. A giant sword with a blade that is over 20 meters long.
‘I’m quite used to it.’
It was the Cheondun Sword.
Cheondungeombeop is a martial art that deals with a kind of law based on the sword.
In fact, it is ambiguous to even call it martial arts.
Although the boundaries between magic and martial arts become blurred as one ascends to a higher hierarchy, the Thousand Dungeon method is quite different among them.
‘It’s not as good as the Thunder Spirit Art.’
A martial art that creates and completes a god of thunder with thunder spirits in the body.
When the god of thunder is completed, the god of thunder will have one power. It is the state of constant brain soul.
I thought about it for a moment and moved the sword. The sword moved smoothly according to my will.
The Cheondun Geombeop achieved more than expected.
I don’t know why, but the Cheondun sword method worked well for me.
According to Dayoon Nam, I have achieved similar achievements to Dayoon Nam when I had already reached the septum. It’s only been a little over a week since I’ve had it.
‘It’s a pity.’
Even if it was just for a week, the odds of beating Yoon Chae-rin would have greatly increased.
Time was running out. Even though I prepared a lot to prepare myself.
‘Fuck Taechang.’

Stamina: 25
Magic attribute: 25
Inherent ability: infant independence
Attributes: Knowledge Reading (S+), Cloth Mask (S), Heavenly Hand (S), Overlord (S), Yin-Yang Body (S-), Transformation (A+)
A few things have changed.
Due to the flowering of Ennis, the king of the void tribe, the rank of [Read Knowledge] Has risen by one.
[Overlord] Was created with the power of the elixir, and the characteristics of [Byeongangsoe] Evolved because it was used too much.
I watched the status window.
Strength, agility, stamina, magic attribute. She lags behind Yoon Chae-rin in all of that. In addition, her characteristics are also inferior compared to Yoon Chae-rin. It’s because there aren’t many combat-specific characteristics.
「Thousand Masks」 And 「Knowledge Reading」 Provide assistance, but they are only in the realm of assistance.
The rest of the features were the same. Attributes that are more focused on secondary than attributes that can be used as main.
I drank the potion I had made using alchemy in advance.
Feeling mana and stamina recovering, I headed to the arena.
“Siwoo, it’s a match, right? Go for it!”
“Siwoo, cheer up!”
I was greeted by the kids and headed to the arena.
We walked to the largest arena in the center. A competition hall measuring 100m in length and width. It was large enough to be used as a competition venue, but it was a measure that Yoon Chae-rin was making a fuss about.
“How have you been? I heard you only trained to die during the match?”
Yoon Chae-rin asked with a confident smile.
“I told you. I think I can rub it this time.”
“Ha, Siwoo Lee really has grown up a lot.”
Yoon Chae-rin made a puzzled expression.
“Is everyone ready?”
“Yeah.”
“Yeah.”
“Then the match will begin soon.”
The fairies widened the distance between me and Yoon Chae-rin. Raising her arms in the middle space.
“Start!”
The fairies lowered their hands.
I quickly put my hand into the subspace.
A spear, a blunt weapon, and a shield grazed his hand.
The trouble was short-lived. There is no time to leisurely choose her weapon against Yoon Chae-rin.
I took out the sword I was most confident in. Purple lightning flashed around the sword. A hand wrapped in a white flag hit the thunderbolt.
Bang!
It was accompanied by a roar. Unfazed, he drew out his sword with his left hand. Put on brain light Yoon Chae-rin swung her other hand.
I tried to stop reflexively, but I panicked. There was a small white ring in Yoon Chae-rin’s grasp. Pouring mana into her sword, she increased the distance for an instant.
Quaang!
The sphere made a crater as it headed towards the floor. Even though it was retrieved just before a direct hit, it was that powerful.
“Ol, avoid this. It was a surprise gift.”
Yoon Chae-rin said with a smile.
A white orb seeped into Yoon Chae-rin’s body. Celestial horse. Has absolute control over all demons. Whether it’s someone else’s or your own.
Yoon Chae-rin had retrieved the magic with the heavenly horse a little while ago.
That’s why a long-term battle against Yoon Chae-rin is dangerous.
He breathed in.
Wear a mask. It felt like something was covering her face.
If it’s a short-term battle, I won’t be fooled anywhere.
No, my abilities were the most specialized in short-term battles at this academy.
The thunder spirits inside his body reacted and emitted lightning.
