Into the Creations 1780

Chapter 1780 – 1780. Destiny

I left my house and headed to a nearby dungeon.

It was to test what I had gained this time.

‘A training ground isn’t bad, but it’s best to use it in a real battle.’

I went to the Association website and scanned the dungeons in Gyeonggi Province.

‘Going to A-rank or B-rank alone would be difficult and annoying. Since the purpose is to test my skills, C-rank is appropriate. D-rank monsters are too weak to be a proper test.’

The best option was a C-rank closed dungeon.

However, all the C-rank closed dungeons in Korea were currently being raided.

‘Those guild bastards have all taken them.’

C-rank closed dungeons were popular because they were suitable for practical training for hunters who had awakened their mana.

‘Waiting for a new C-rank closed dungeon to appear is a waste of time. I’ll have to go to an open one.’

Even though other hunters would be a nuisance, I wouldn’t be sticking with them, so I just had to be careful.

I quickly scanned the C-rank open dungeons.

There was a decent C-rank open dungeon near Incheon. It was called ‘Spirit Orc Legion.’ As the name suggested, Spirit Orcs, which were C-rank monsters, appeared there.

‘Spirit Orcs with the power of spirits are among the top-tier monsters in C-rank. C-rank hunters avoid them, and B-rank hunters have B-rank dungeons, so there’s no reason to hunt Spirit Orcs.’

The pay wasn’t bad, so B-rank hunters who were short on cash often frequented the dungeon.

Having made my decision, I immediately drove my car into the dungeon.

“Kueeeek!”

I encountered a Spirit Orc. Its skin was yellow. It was a Light Spirit Orc. This orc’s characteristic was speed.

As soon as the yellow orc saw me, it roared and charged. It was so fast that a normal C-rank hunter would miss its movements if they weren’t focused.

‘That speed is not enough to escape my eyes.’

It was just fast.

I could follow it with my eyes, and even if I reacted slowly, it wouldn’t be too late.

I watched it idly, and when it was close, I summoned the Fire Lotus Daggers, grabbed them, and swung. The Light Spirit Orc’s body was cut in half and fell. I collected the mana stone from the corpse and moved on to find another Spirit Orc.

‘Is this about the level of a Spirit Orc? I should try using Meteor Sword on the next one I encounter.’

I encountered an Ice Spirit Orc with blue skin.

“Kueek, kueeeek!”

The Spirit Orc created an ice club in its hand. It slowly approached me, showing its killing intent.

‘Meteor Sword.’

[Meteor Sword is activated.]

Mana and stamina drained, and a sword was summoned in the sky. My face wasn’t good. More mana than I expected had been consumed.

The Meteor Sword fell directly onto the Spirit Orc’s head.

“Kueek?”

The falling speed was also slow. Slow enough for the Spirit Orc to react without any difficulty.

The Spirit Orc hit the Meteor Sword falling on its head with its club as if it were hitting a home run. The Meteor Sword flew far away and disappeared without a trace.

It was a disappointing power.

Thunder Heaven Style (雷天流) Myriad Thunder (卍雷).

The Myriad Thunder shot from my palm pierced the Spirit Orc’s body. The Spirit Orc fell to the ground and died. I collected the Spirit Orc’s mana stone with a complicated expression.

‘The power of Meteor Sword is much worse than I thought.’

Its power was weaker than when used as a magical artifact, and its mana efficiency was also poor. It couldn’t even properly kill a single C-rank monster. It was difficult to use in battle in this state.

‘Maybe it’s because the skill level is low. I should level it up.’

[Meteor Sword Lv. 1

Consumes mana and vitality to create a Meteor Sword and drop it to the ground.

The durability, size, and number of Meteor Swords are determined by the mana and vitality consumed.]

[Do you want to use 500 points to increase the level of Meteor Sword Lv.1?]

I invested points without hesitation. I could earn more points later.

I couldn’t accept that a newly acquired skill was too weak to use.

[Meteor Sword Lv. 6

Consumes mana and vitality to create a Meteor Sword and drop it to the ground.

The durability, size, and number of Meteor Swords are determined by the mana and vitality consumed.

‣Attribute Imbue

You can imbue attributes to the Meteor Sword depending on your mana attribute.

‣Trajectory Control

You can partially control the direction of the Meteor Sword.]

[Do you want to use 10,000 points to increase the level of Meteor Sword Lv.6?]

[Not enough points.]

‘That’s it.’

It cost a total of 17,000 points to raise Meteor Sword to level 6. I had 8,771 points left.

I wanted to raise it to level 7, but I didn’t have enough points.

‘Can’t a single Spirit Orc show up?’

After wandering around for about 10 minutes, I found an Ice Spirit Orc. When it saw me, it emitted cold air. The grass and trees that touched the cold air froze rapidly.

‘Meteor Sword.’

Mana drained. It was about the same amount of mana as when I used it earlier. But the result was like heaven and earth.

The Meteor Sword created in the sky fell to the ground. The Spirit Orc couldn’t even react. Kwakwakwang! The power was so strong that it shattered the Spirit Orc’s body and created a small crater. The Meteor Sword that was stuck in the ground emitted lightning in all directions and then disappeared.

“Fuck. That’s it!”

A power that even a Spirit Orc couldn’t dare to resist!

I used Meteor Sword a few more times and experimented with various things. When I used the least amount of mana, the Meteor Sword was summoned in a small state like a dagger. Not only the size but also the power and speed were greatly reduced.

‘It’s to the point where I’d be more powerful if I just threw a dagger myself.’

I roughly grasped how much mana was needed for Meteor Sword to unleash its full power.

‘The advantage of Meteor Sword is that it can be used without any preparation as long as I have mana, vitality, and concentration. This will be a great help in battle.’

Now, it’s time for the next one.

Destiny.

[Destiny

Bonds do not disappear.

Summon a target with a bond by consuming points.

Price: 1,000 points

※Caution

The summoned target consumes a certain amount of points every 24 hours.

A target that has been summoned once can be summoned again after 300 days.

The target may refuse to be summoned.]

‘It’s not even 1,000 points anyway. Let’s use it now.’

Who should I summon?

Mireyeong came to mind. She always wanted to come to the real world whenever she had the chance.

[Do you want to use Destiny to summon Mireyeong?]

It was possible!

Mireyeong wasn’t even bond level 10.

‘Even if that wasn’t the case, I could call her with a confirmed summon. Although it costs 1,000 points… then there’s no need to use Destiny.’

Destiny was different from bond summons, random summons, and confirmed summons. I shouldn’t forget that.

‘Someone other than Mireyeong….’

Suddenly, an AV actress I had seen recently came to mind. She was a short-haired actress with H-cup breasts. She had a mole on the right side of her butthole.

‘Her name is Niigamura Nina.’

[There is no bond with the target. Cannot summon.]

‘Does that mean that me knowing her unilaterally isn’t a bond? No, wait. Is it because she’s a real-world person?’

I read the information about Destiny. There were no restrictions such as the real world or the game world.

[Do you want to use Destiny to summon Han Harin?]

“……!!”

I could summon Han Harin. I was really surprised.

‘Does Destiny not care about whether it’s the real world or the game world? The condition is a bond.’

I thought of other women.

[Do you want to use Destiny to summon Yuria?]

[Do you want to use Destiny to summon Melissa?]

[Do you want to use Destiny to summon Joo Seo-hyun?]

[Do you want to use Destiny to summon Baal?]

I could summon them all. To be precise, I could attempt to summon them. They could refuse to be summoned, so I might just waste points.

‘Could this be….’

[Do you want to use Destiny to summon Kim Ha-jeong?]

“…….”

Kim Ha-jeong.

Secretary Kim from the [Vampire Detective] world.

She, who was in the middle of her ending, could also be summoned.

‘Is it possible to summon her because she’s in the middle of her ending? Then… what about characters from worlds that have completely ended?’

[Do you want to use Destiny to summon Morgana?]

I shuddered.

Morgana was my woman from the [Tyrant for You] world. That world ended with me destroying it, and Morgana died before the destruction.

‘The fact that I can summon Morgana… does that mean I’m temporarily reviving her?’

A woman who was not only dead but from a world that had ended.

I started to get excited at the fact that I could meet her again, someone I thought I would never see again.

‘I’m summoning Morgana.’

[Using Destiny to summon Morgana.]

[The cost to summon Morgana for 24 hours is 11,550 points.]

[Not enough points. Cannot summon Morgana.]

My expectations were high, so my disappointment was great.

‘11,550 points for a 24-hour summon? Are you kidding me!’

I was annoyed. I didn’t know why it was so expensive.

‘I need to know the reason. Let’s test it once.’

[Do you want to use Destiny to summon Mireyeong?]

[The cost to summon Mireyeong for 24 hours is 9,735 points.]

[Not enough points. Cannot summon Mireyeong.]

Mireyeong was cheaper than Morgana. What was the reason?

‘…Is it because of strength? If Morgana and Mireyeong fought… Mireyeong would be stronger. Is it not because of strength?’

[Do you want to use Destiny to summon Wi Yu?]

[The cost to summon Wi Yu for 24 hours is 131,510 points.]

[Not enough points. Cannot summon Wi Yu.]

Wi Yu’s points were on a different scale. It seemed that the value of the 24-hour summon cost was indeed related to strength.

‘No. Just in case, let’s test it one more time.’

[Do you want to use Destiny to summon Gain Cage?]

[The cost to summon Gain Cage for 24 hours is 65 points.]

[Gain Cage accepts the summon.]

A middle-aged man with blond hair appeared in front of me.

“Summon? What is going on… Huh! Fucking shit! You are Seong Yu-jin?!!”

Gain Cage. The president of the United States from the [Vampire Detective] world. He was someone I couldn’t kill with my own hands.

“I wanted to kill you with my own hands! Die, you bastard!”

He swung his sword at me. He was terrified and jumped back.

“I don’t know what’s going on, but do you think I’ll just let you do as you please?! I’m also a Vampire Progenitor! I’ll use my superpower to…”

[Using Time Acceleration. Remaining stacks: 0]

The world slowed down. Even Cain, who was retreating, was no exception. I approached Cain and swung my sword. I cut his waist. But the world was still moving slowly.

‘What’s the point of becoming a vampire? He can’t even react to my sword. No, looking at his pupils moving, he’s reacting a little?’

Even those pupils seem to be chasing my afterimages. I continued to swing my sword for the remaining time. I cut his torso into pieces, except for his neck.

And time returned to normal.

[Time Acceleration has ended.]

His body fell to the ground with blood. The only thing left was his head, which was shocked with confusion. Even if only his head was left, he was still alive because he was a vampire. But that was only for a moment. Without a neck, even a Vampire Progenitor would die.

“I’ll split that head now too. You bastard. The fact that that world was destroyed by a nuclear war is all because of you! Thinking about it makes me angry!”

I swung my sword and split Gain’s head in half.

[Gain Cage dies.]

[Gain Cage cannot be summoned by Destiny for the next 300 days.]

‘Does that mean I can kill him again in 300 days?’

The reason I didn’t summon Seong Su-un was because I thought it would consume a lot of points. He was a bit strong.
