Chapter 169 – Boss Attack (2)
“This lesson is a boss attack.”
The strong one glanced at the four of us.
“To be honest, you guys are so special compared to the other students right now. The level of the other kids is also rising rapidly, but even considering that, you guys are too strong.”
Yoon Chae-rin’s shoulders shrugged.
Pretending not to be the case, but Yoon Seung-ha and Eun-soo also slightly raised the corners of their mouths.
“Of course, even if the four of you work together, there are over 80 other students, so if you fight like that, the students are more likely to win.”
Yes.
Although we are strong, it is relative to the last. Han Jong-woo, Lim Na-yeon, Lee Ji-ah, Kim Ha-rin, and Ayane, so-called names. There are many strong students.
The story will change a lot if either Nana or Yoon Chae-rin gets a clear award, but Nana or Yoon Chae-rin are still insecure. To put it bluntly, it can be seen as a very slight step on the place called the award.
‘Sixteen students were selected and expelled for one reason or another.’
If you do a simple calculation, there are more than 84 students in one class.
If they move cooperatively with each other, even we are at a relative disadvantage.
In the game, Yoon Chae-rin had a feast of all kinds of buffs, and it was possible because the rules themselves were set in her favor.
“The buffs are not enough, but the rules can still give you an advantage.”
Of course, we have penalties.
“The two of them combine to make a group. The two groups are different teams and can either check each other or help each other if they are in danger. And if you catch students, you earn points.”
“How many points?
“Students are 1p each.”
“And what if you break the other group?”
Yoon Chae-rin asked.
“Just in case, really, if you defeat the opponent, you can get 80p.”
The strong man laughed evilly and said.
To be honest, it’s correct to work together to defeat all the students and then see the match, but if you can see the angle to defeat the opposing team, you can win even if you defeat only one opposing team.
80p.
If it was 50p, I would worry, but if it became 80p, the story would be different. Because it means that you can win even if you take only one opponent with your stupid words, take your time and lose your body.
It felt like a strange atmosphere.
“Then, Siwoo and I?”
“No, that doesn’t work.”
When Yoon Chae-rin said with a smirk, the strong man shook her head.
“Joe has already decided. Joe is-“
***
Boss attack.
It was conducted in the labyrinth tower that I had experienced before. All four groups of students disperse to obtain items, buffs, or devices that can inflict debuffs on opponents, and use them to earn points.
Lee Ji-ah looked at her party members.
Ayane, who is exceptionally strong against fire with the ability of ‘severance’, and Han Jong-woo, who can play the role of a tank and suppress opponents. And if it’s limited to destruction magic, he’s one of the best at the academy. Here’s Zora, the tank role.
Zora is a student who plays the role of a mid-level tank. It lacks offensive power and slow feet, but has excellent defensive power.
Students gathered their opinions and placed some strong students. It is a group for the boss attack in the most vanguard. The other group is Lim Na-yeon and Kim Ha-rin.
‘If there is a problem.’
Lee Ji-ah looked at Ayane.
Ayane bounced back from the middle to the top of the upper ranks in this midterm exam. So she doesn’t doubt her skills.
However, Ayane was not in a good condition last week because of the situation in Japan. Did she say that her influence on the family was quite large? There were no casualties, but she was told the property damage was too great.
They said that if you make a mistake, the price will be tilted.
“Did you guys hear the news?”
Tanker Zora lowered her voice and opened her mouth as if it were a secret.
“The news?”
“Titania-sama is out to catch the sloth goat this time. But he said he was seriously injured while fighting this time.”
“Injury?”
Han Jong-woo suddenly interrupted and said. Then Jorah flinched.
“Yes. As usual, Titania-sama was hurt by the demon king, so she tends to stay away from home.”
“But.”
Ji-ah Lee nodded his head.
The King of the Void, Ennis, who appears publicly at various events.
And if there is a festival, Hamer, the dragon king, holds the most splendid festival.
Unlike the two, Titania rarely makes public appearances. If anything, it’s to the extent of attending an entrance ceremony or to see students with various talents with their own eyes.
So, rumors about Titania are rife all the time.
Rumors such as being severely injured by the demon king and making it difficult to move, or being injured by the world tree and having difficulty defending it.
In a very weak voice, they say that it’s because they’re actually hikikomori who like Korean dramas, webtoons, and web novels, but there’s no way a person in that position would do that.
Pajijik-!
Suddenly, I heard a flash of lightning.
Han Jong-woo reacted the fastest. Clap-. Barding wrapped around Han Jong-woo’s body. Now, rather than armor, it was in the shape of a dragon.
Han Jong-woo quickly scanned all directions. Not many magicians use lightning. Because it is too difficult to deal with.
In terms of return, it has the strength of paralyzing the opponent and having extreme attack power, but lightning is rough to handle. However, there is only one person in Hero Academy. There is a guy who handles lightning very well, like limbs.
“Lee Siu… !”
Others reacted an hour later than that. Zora erected a shield larger than her own in the direction of her sound. Ayane drew her sword and stepped forward. Lee Ji-ah chanted a secondary spell with her feet.
Speed up.
And chanted the order.
Ugh-!
A purple station field enveloped the party. Gravity Shield. Zora infused her shield with mana. Han Jong-woo stood in front and covered the party with Yong-ik. At the same time, a purple flash was fired at the party.
Kwaaaaang—!
The lightning spear exploded. The force field shattered and Zora’s complexion turned pale.
‘Fuck, what is this… !’
Pierced the purple force field. It broke through Han Jong-woo’s dragon wings and reached Zora’s shield. The spear of lightning lost its power as it pierced the shield.
Jorah was devastated.
A purple lightning spear. It was evident that Siwoo Lee had blown it. Among the students, Siu Lee is the only one with purple mana. However. Does this make sense? A guy who is obviously unmanned can cast magic like this?
“Zora! Wake!”
Jiah Lee screamed. At the same time, Ayane headed forward. The sword she held was stained black.
Disconnection.
It was her inherent ability to cut out even her concept or phenomenon, as long as she had enough understanding of mana and her abilities.
When it comes to her ability alone, she is not lacking even if she is at the top, but Ayane’s ability is not up to par and she stays at the top.
Jiing-.
The purple light exploded once more. Ayane raised her sword. Jiah Lee assisted.
“Attunement—strengthening eyesight. Strengthening agility. Strengthen muscle strength. Mana sync.”
While chanting quickly with speed, it makes hand signs at the same time.
Linked Han Jong-woo’s mana to Ayane to amplify her mana. The source of Lee Ji-ah’s magical power was ‘runaway’, so it was not suitable for a place like this.
I’m sorry-!
A flash of purple light split with the sound of something cracking.
“Wow, fuck. What the hell before.”
Jorah murmured, spitting out curses.
“Haaaaa.”
Ayane sighed heavily. Han Jong-woo was quietly glaring at the direction where the flash came from.
“Twin spells.”
Ji-ah murmured quietly.
There is a famous family that stands shoulder to shoulder with her own family, which is her magical family. The eldest daughter there had the ability called Twin Spell. Did she say that she was Seon Yu-ra? Lee Ji-ah thought of Lee Si-woo’s ability.
The most clearly revealed abilities are Gwang-Ik, who was shown in the fight with Eogum and Yoon Chae-rin. And mana that seemed to go out of control from time to time. The karma of her sorcery, which is her own ability.
No matter how you think about it, Lee Si-woo’s ability is strange.
A skill level that seems to have only advantages and no disadvantages. That kind of thing would usually have a heavy penalty.
“Have you cast a tracking spell?”
“I can’t walk. Because of my ability, I’m not good at using delicate auxiliary magic.”
Jiah Lee answered Ayane’s question. Ayane just nodded her head.
In fact, it is because Lee Ji-ah’s ability is too great to regret that she can’t use such magic. Because she alone exerts more power than a number of wizard students.
“Quickly call the others. Siwoo Lee is sniping.”
***
Phut!
Sparks exploded in the air.
It was a code roughly created by the students, but it was a sign that I was shooting the kids with magic. The reason why I know that is because knowledge reading taught me.
“How will we do it? The kids seem to notice and run away.”
The sniper with the lightning spear was stronger than expected. Thanks to the use of her twin spells, a lot of mana was consumed, but since Han Jong-woo was injured and Lee Ji-ah’s party’s Ayane spent a lot of mana, she benefited.
I can quickly recover mana with a mask that imitates the mana of the Great Sea.
“Let’s take a position at another point and attack.”
Eun Soo-ah speaks in an excited voice.
I looked at my eyes and they were shining. She’s gotten a lot out of middle 2, but she’s not completely out of it yet. I was in that state from the time I said I was going to snipe my opponent.
“Then let’s move.”
I put on a mask that imitated Gwang-ik and held Eun-su-ah in my arms as a princess.
“Wait a minute.”
“… !”
Eun Soo-ah’s face turned red like a carrot.
But this is unavoidable. I can’t carry the light wing I have because it comes from the shoulder blades.
Pajik-.
Lightning, light, and flame rose, and they fused once to form a pair of wings.
“Wow.”
Eun Soo-ah let out an exclamation.
“My wings are cool. Especially lightning strikes.”
Apparently, Eunsoo-ah liked her.
“Have you ever named this one?”
“… Name?”
Eun Soo-ah’s words suddenly felt ominous.
“You haven’t built it yet. Then, shall I build it for you?”
I shook my head. There is a decent name called Gwang-Ik, but why should I get it from Eun Soo-ah?
“I know Siwoo is great, but I still have to name the skills. Why do warriors and wizards write down the names of skills? It’s to solidify the ‘image’ so that it activates faster and stronger.”
But as if she wouldn’t listen to my opinion, Eun Soo-ah muttered to herself.
“In that sense, I will build it. Wings of lightning, light, and flames mixed together. So, Lightning Blazer Wing. The name of encephalitis is… ?”
I distorted her face involuntarily.
I really, really hated it.
