Chapter 128
Clash.
Their swords collided.
Taesan’s arm wavered.
The second sword of the Stormscar Sword, the Dance of the Sword, unfolded.
The trajectory was smoother and harder to read than before. Kang Junhyeok couldn’t block it for even two seconds and got his arm sliced.
“Ugh, I can’t block it now.”
Kang Junhyeok grimaced as he shook his arm. Taesan, on the other hand, had a satisfied look on his face.
His movements had completely changed. It was like the first time he had learned swordsmanship, a significant transformation. Movements he didn’t understand or couldn’t follow before were now effortlessly replicable.
He had become incomparably stronger in terms of combat, especially in close quarters.
It was a change worthy of being called God’s Blessing.
“I received it, too, but I don’t see any change. In fact, it seems easier for me to lose now.”
“But you’ve become stronger, haven’t you?”
“Well, that’s true.”
Kang Junhyeok felt that he had become stronger as he looked at Taesan with awe.
“To have defeated such a monster.”
The B-grade monster had released its power.
Kang Junhyeok was overwhelmed by it. His confidence was shattered, and he was scared.
But Taesan won against that monster.
He received the recognition of a god from that dreadful labyrinth, leading to the bestowal of a blessing to all of humanity.
Now, it was embarrassing even to compare them.
“Really... you’re amazing.”
“That’s enough.”
Taesan swung his sword.
“We don’t have much time left, so come on.”
The God’s Blessing bestowed by Lakiratas was not only for Taesan but for all of humanity.
After resting and recovering, people sparred with each other to understand the changes. And they were amazed. They couldn’t help but be in awe and excited about how strong they had become.
For them, about to descend into the labyrinth once more, becoming stronger literally meant their survival rate had increased. They expressed their infinite gratitude to Taesan.
“Thank you!”
“Taesan! There you are!”
Annoyed by the people flocking to him, Taesan climbed up to the rooftop of a building.
“This is burdensome.”
He had not received such positive feelings very often. Taesan received their greetings and went to find Kim Hwiyeon.
“How are the damages?”
“A lot died.”
Kim Hwiyeon grimaced, but there was no despair on her face.
“We’ve become stronger. Thanks to you, Taesan.”
She also tried light sparring. Just that was enough to feel the difference from before.
“Next time I come back... I will be much stronger.”
She clenched her fist.
This was not a bad result for Taesan either.
Not only the majority of average players but also the last surviving Hard Mode players had been enhanced.
No matter how strong he was, he couldn’t handle all the enemies alone.
In the end, the more people survived, the more they could do, and the higher their survival rate would be.
“It’s a good thing.”
The effort to defeat the monster was worth it.
Above all, he received not only the blessing of God but also other skills.
And it was time to return to the labyrinth.
“Then don’t die, and see you next time.”
After saying farewell, Taesan closed his eyes. The spreading cracks of the labyrinth swallowed him up.
When he opened his eyes again, he was inside the labyrinth.
[Monster elimination bonus + 383]
[First wave bonus + 53]
[Second wave bonus + 45]
[Third wave bonus + 50]
[Fourth wave bonus + 8]
[Secret quest bonus + 525]
[Suppression bonus + 104]
[Victory bonus + 112]
[Settlement complete]
[12,800 points will be paid.]
[You can sustain combat for a long time. You don't get tired easily. The time you can fight in the best condition has increased. The time to reach the limit of physical strength has greatly increased.]
The added part was that the time to reach the limit of physical strength had increased.
This was a good change. Literally, he could fight for days without getting tired. In the previous world, he had defeated S-grade monsters through endless repetition, thanks to this skill.
[Special permanent activation skill: Enhanced Senses]
[Proficiency: 61%]
[Senses are enhanced. You can feel things like killing intent. You can also feel blind spots. You can feel invisible things even better.]
With Synchronized Eyes, if an attack came from an awkward place, it wouldn’t even reach Taesan.
The skill Mark of Struggle given by Lakiratas had also changed its content. Still, it was disappointing because although the word ‘decent’ was added, there were no significant changes.
[Special activation skill: Breathless Attack]
[Mana Consumption: 2]
[Proficiency: 62%]
[You can move, ignoring breath during combat. It lasts for about 30 seconds, and you can move at full power.]
The Breathless Attack that he had always used without even realizing had also changed.
Firstly, the duration became 30 seconds. Additionally, the content that he could move with full power was added.
Literally, even if he moved his body with all his heart, his muscles would hardly get fatigued. This change had a significant impact on the battle.
[Special Activation Skill: Acceleration]
[Mana Consumption: 5]
[Proficiency: 21%]
[Accelerates faster towards the target.]
Acceleration also had the faster part added.
As it was a skill that allowed him to reach the enemy quickly, this was also a meaningful change.
[Basic Magic: Frost Arrow]
[Mana Consumption: 6]
[Proficiency: 22%]
[Fires a frost arrow. The enemy takes more damage the less immune it is. Tries to afflict the target with the abnormal status [Freeze]. The strong cold can freeze the air.]
The Frost Arrow he always enjoyed using was also enhanced. Considering how often he used it, the speed was very slow. As expected, the proficiency in magic skills increased slowly.
He activated Frost Arrow. The cold was much stronger. Now, just being next to it, his breath turned into frost.
If it was a low-grade enemy, they would take damage even if they avoided it. He was satisfied.
Besides that, Craving for Battle, Righteous Duel, Proof of Limit, Annihilation of the Strong, and Half-belief, etc.
He had increased the proficiency of most of the skills that affected battle. Although the content was not changed, it was definitely a reinforcement.
He was satisfied. There was also a new skill he had acquired.
[Special Activation Skill: Apostle Transformation [Lakiratas]]
[For 10 minutes, you gain some of the power of Lakiratas's apostles since the god of struggle and death first bestowed his power after his birth. This skill cannot be used for a day after activation.]
Until now, he had always been receiving the apostle’s contract.
It was a skill that allowed him to draw out some of the power he could get when he accepted that contract.
[Apostle Transformation... I've seen many who received the apostle's contract, but I didn't know there was a skill that could be given like this. It's really interesting. Interesting.]
Listening to the excited ghost’s words, it seemed like he was the first to have obtained this power as a skill.
If what the ghost had said until now was true, it was a skill that could change the course of events.
“A B-grade monster’s reward is enough.”
While Taesan was happily checking the skills, two skills caught his eye.
“What are these? How do you use them?”
[Divine Power]
[Proficiency: 2%]
[The grace given when someone believes and follows a god. It seems meaningless for now.]
He had obtained it when defeating Harmon’s angel, but there was no change. The ghost mumbled in a vague tone.
[I've never heard that I learned it like this. Maybe it's a skill that you can use when you obtain divinity or godhood?]
“I don’t know.”
For now, it was a meaningless skill that just increased in proficiency digits.
But it was easy to understand. As it was a power related to god, Taesan, who was not a god, could not use it. That was how he accepted it.
There was a truly unknown skill separately.
[Concept Skill: ???]
[Proficiency: 12%]
[The ??? of will descends.]
“What kind of skill is this?”
[...I don't know?]
It seemed that the ghost also didn’t know.
“...When I defeated the monster, Soul Ascension was activated.”
The proficiency increased by 8%, and the content descriptor of descending will was added.
But it was still an unknown skill. He had obtained it when defeating the native monster in the world of blacksmith Hafran. After that, proficiency increased when defeating the high god’s monster. There was no consistency.
“I should check it with the blacksmith.”
Taesan headed to the blacksmith.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
