Chapter 11
4. Tutorial Dungeon (3)
Cha Eun-seol couldn’t keep his open mouth shut.
she’s not stupid Cha Shin Hyeon was only level 1, but if she’s really level 1, she can’t subdue her at level 31, nor inflict her injuries on her Seo Joong-hyeon at level 30.
It was clear that her brother had other abilities than Hunter’s. It is natural to wonder about the origins of unknown abilities. So I asked.
Cha Shin Hyeon wasn’t the type to lie even to her sister. She said that she didn’t tell her everything in detail, but she said briefly enough that she was in a place called Moorim and learned the art of martial arts while she was missing.
As a result, Cha Eun-seol knew that Cha Shin Hyeon used martial arts instead of her skills.
She thought that it was only that she had learned a special skill that was a little different from the general skill.
Of course she was, she guessed that with that alone she would be able to easily wipe out the dungeon rabbit for beginners, but ······.
‘How do you know it would have been like this!’
The fighting style of a warrior who has mastered swordsmanship is perfect for the name of a warrior. Dodging, blocking, sometimes slashing with the body, savagely rushes in, stabs and cuts the enemy. Skills are used when necessary in this process.
But Cha Shin Hyeon barely moved from her place.
Cha Eun-seol of the archer class, who excelled in one sight, moved his sword at a speed that he couldn’t even see the afterimage properly and cut the rabbits in pieces. If it flashes, it will be cut off with a squeak.
Shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!
He wasn’t using a wide-area skill that wiped out dozens at once, he was just swinging his sword. However, the sword speed was so fast that as a result, the rabbits were dying at a tremendous speed, so it was almost like a wide-area skill.
It was an instant that the rabbits were slaughtered.
For some reason, Cha Shin Hyeon didn’t cut the last one and just hit him with a sword. The stunned rabbit fell to the ground.
shudder.
He calmly returned the sword to its scabbard.
Cha Eun-seol suddenly came to his senses and ran down the hill. Arriving in front of her brother in an instant of hers, she poured her words out with her agitated demeanor.
“Dude, what happened? What is it, that!”
“Isn’t that a rabbit?”
Cha Shin Hyeon replies, grabbing the stunned rabbit’s ear and lifting it up, observing with curious eyes. Cha Eun-seol, who did not understand for a moment, raised her voice slightly.
“No, not rabbits! You just killed the rabbit.”
“What? It’s swordsmanship.”
“Is it completely different from the swordsmanship I know?”
“Swordsmanship is right. There may be a difference, not a skill, but a martial art.”
“Invincible…….”
After a moment’s pause, Cha Eun-seol asked the question again.
“What is this all about martial arts? It’s a shame to call them swordsmanship the same as swordsmanship skills. It’s too loud.”
“Of course not all are like this. That’s how I look because my status is so high.”
It was Cha Shin Hyeon, who said that she was good-looking very calmly, but there was no sign of shame because it was true.
“And the swordsmanship spoken of in martial arts… … Um, don’t call it swordsmanship because it’s confusing. Swordsmanship doesn’t just mean wielding a sword. It’s like that when you’re not very good at it, but the more you become a master, the more the concept expands.”
“How is it?”
“Breathing, interval, momentum, strengthening the body, strengthening the sword, synchronizing with the sword, assimilating with the surroundings… … All elements work at once, and they are collectively called swordsmanship. It has to be different from simple swordsmanship.”
It was so deceptive that Cha Eun-seol was speechless for a moment.
After her silence for a moment, she opened her mouth with difficulty.
“It seems to be a concept with several skills working at the same time. Then it’s not that I don’t quite understand… … Wait, are you saying it’s not a skill after all? So what is your experience?”
“A message indicating that it has been obtained appears.”Other than that, there were some more interesting phrases.
Cha Shin Hyeon opened the status window.
Skill List: (Close)
Swordsmanship / Spirit
First, let’s take a look at the swordsmanship that received a lot of messages.
[Swordsmanship]
Type: Class Skill / Passive / No MP consumption
Rarity: D- (university that anyone can easily access)
Proficiency: A+ (a state that can be freely transformed beyond perfection)
Description: Warrior’s class skill. Ability to handle swords in general. Applies only when using a weapon recognized as a sword.
Proficiency became A+ in one shot. is the highest grade
Ignoring the whispering voice, he swung his sword as he wished, but did he even recognize his skills?
The explanation is pretty much right. Cha Shin Hyeon’s swordsmanship went beyond perfection and was able to create an independent swordsmanship just by wielding it as desired.
This time, we looked at the new skills.
[Aerodynamics]
Type: Origin Skill / Passive / No MP consumption
Rarity: A+ (the supreme treasure of questionable existence)
Proficiency: A+ (a state that can be freely transformed beyond perfection)
Description: Completely forgotten, the greatest power that mankind has ever been able to wield. It is the energy accumulated by communicating with the world and receiving its energy into the body, and it can be used to perform various miracles.
“I like it very much.”
Cha Shin Hyeon laughed happily.
Not only was the name and work that he knew the same, but the explanation was very similar.
The expression is written in a grand way, but after feeling (communicating with the world) and absorbing the energy of Mother Nature (taking it into the body) and building up (accumulating) the energy in the danjeon, it is the very power that Moorim calls agility or internal power.
Like swordsmanship, it was natural that the proficiency was A+, but I didn’t know that the rarity would be A+. It doesn’t matter what rarity is marked, it doesn’t matter when you use it, but it feels good to treat it highly.
“How are you?”
“Look for yourself.”
Cha Shin Hyeon revealed her skills without hesitation.
Cha Eun-seol’s eyes, looking at him carefully, soon turned into astonishment.
“Your swordsmanship proficiency is A+?! It must have been D-!”
“When you cut a knife, you know how to climb. It seems that the experience in Moorim is reflected.”
“No what… … uh? What’s this? power?”
“It’s new.”
It was a clear answer.
Cha Eun-seol, who had no more surprising energy, made a liberated face.
“It’s the first time I’ve seen a skill A+, but I never thought that a rarity A+ would exist. What’s the aerodynamics there? It seems to be a series that deals with special powers like Wizard’s Magic or Cleric’s Holy Power, but it’s not converted by consuming MP…”
“That sounds good.”
“Not good enough! That’s cheating level, this one!”
Passive skills are an exception because they support abilities, but active skills unconditionally consume MP. It’s the same principle as adding oil to a car to run.
Hunters consume MP to gain specific effects.
In other words, from the point of view of a hunter who has to strategically use limited resources such as MP, a third resource called agility has suddenly appeared.
In a game where you fight only with guns, does it feel like someone is the only one with a grenade? Cha Eun-seol’s expression of cheating was not an exaggeration.
“The power differs depending on the degree of training, but the power itself is not universal. Of course, from the point of view of a hunter who becomes stronger regardless of his aggression, it would be an unconditional plus factor if he learned it.”
Cha Shin Hyeon replied with a smile.
“Actually, I was worried at first. There was no reaction when I tried using martial arts outside the dungeon. It would have been difficult if martial arts and skills existed separately until the end.”
If that was the case, it was a plate that had to use only swordsmanship skills and sealing the martial arts in order to level up.
The problem is that in that case, it is difficult to determine to what extent the skill is. Because the standards were not specified.
Is it permissible to use aerodynamics to strengthen the body? What enhances the strength and anticipation of the sword? Furthermore, are swords and swords not allowed? If so, what is a higher level swordsmanship or swordsmanship?
In Moorim, even those were treated as the level of swordsmanship, but there was no guarantee that even Hunter’s swordsmanship, which was described as ‘general sword handling techniques’, would be the same.
“However, thankfully, general martial arts did not become skills, and the concept of strength itself was created as a passive skill. That means that even if you use your inner strength to your heart’s content, it will be dismissed as a skill category.”
Rather, this is much more comfortable than a specific martial art skill. As long as you use your Spirit in any way, it will be treated as a skill.
“There is a way to check it out.”
For this purpose, there was a test object that was purposely kept alive.
Cha Shin Hyeon looked at the rabbit he was holding in his left hand.
Kei!
The rabbit, who had come out of the stunned state, struggled with hostility. The fact that it roars like a wild beast in a subject that looks like a rabbit was truly a monster.
However, no matter how strong the will is, you cannot overcome your physical limitations. Because it is a rabbit, its front paws are short and its hind paws do not reach. It’s funny and pathetic to see him floundering in the air.
Cha Shin Hyeon grinned and patted the index finger of her right hand.
puck!
The gust of wind pierced the rabbit’s forehead.
Blood gushed out of the hole, and the rabbit’s body quickly withered and withered before the blood could even wet the fur properly. Soon, the small body crumbled and disappeared into ashes.
Seeing this, Cha Shin Hyeon smiled satisfied.
It wasn’t exactly the disappearing corpse of the rabbit, but after seeing the system message that appeared in front of me the moment the rabbit was killed.
[Experience has been acquired.]
I killed a rabbit with a bullet made of pure aerodynamics without any technique, but an experience point acquisition message popped up.
This made sure
It was correct that the strength of the inner air he was dealing with was registered as a skill.
Then there is nothing to fuss about.
Cha Shin Hyeon’s smile widened.
“I think it will be quite interesting in the future.”
The level-up of the max level starts now.
* * *
As the rabbits have shown, when a monster runs out of life, it does not die like other living things, but disappears as ashes.
Because of this, battles with monsters are surprisingly neat. Even if the monster is cut into pieces and covered in blood, when the monster dies completely, the blood turns into powder and disappears. If there’s blood on the Hunter’s body, it’s probably his own blood.
There is only one trace left by a dead monster.
It is Monstone, which can be said to be the ‘core’ of monsters.
Well, depending on the type of monster, sometimes teeth, claws, horns, leather, etc. were left behind, but that was an exception.
The etymology of the word is also ridiculously simple. After killing the monster, something like a stone came out. Shall we combine the two?
Monsters and stones. Together, MONSTONE.In Korea, the word “hunter” was not translated as “hunter” but was used as it is, so the word “hunter” was brought and used as it is.
“Hoo.”
Of course, the rabbit that disappeared a while ago was also in a state of dropping monsters.
Cha Shin Hyeon picked up the monsters rolling on the floor and looked at them.
Can you describe it as a slightly bumpy stone with the size of a ball? It was translucent yet very pale red. If the color gets too dark, it might look like a ruby.
“Is this money?”
Cha Eun-seol, who had been lost in thought with a complicated expression, suddenly woke up to Cha Shin Hyeon’s question. She quickly nodded her head.
“right. That’s how Hunters make money.”
Hunters raise their level by killing monsters, and earn money by selling the monsters that are produced by killing them.
Although monsters are used in various places, the most widely known method is to replace the energy stored in the monsters with electrical energy.
Most of the hunters did not care what principle was possible. Unless it was some wizard class that made a replacement device, the only thing that mattered was that the monsters were money.
“Then how long are you going to do this?”
“If it’s a dungeon rabbit’s monster… … It will cost you around 10,000 won.”
“10,000 won?!”
Cha Shin Hyeon was taken aback.
“Because these guys are bastards. It is the type that covers quantity rather than quality. Individual monsters have no choice but to be cheaper.”
“No, I wasn’t surprised because it was cheap, I was surprised because it was expensive. Do you mean 10,000 won for each ball stone? So you’re saying you’ve already earned over 300,000 won?”
“Well, that’s what it is.”
“It’s pretty salty. It’s the lowest dungeon, but if it’s like this… … Hunter wasn’t a high-paying job for nothing.”
“If you divide the profit by the number of people participating in the hunt, and consider the time the monsters are respawned in the dungeon, it doesn’t earn as much as people vaguely imagine. Of course, I’m not saying it’s less earning.”
Cha Eun-seol pointed out.
While nodding her head, Cha Shin Hyeon smiled faintly.
“That doesn’t mean that the money you’re making now goes down, right? I have to take care of each and every one of them.”
As he spoke, he gently waved his hand.
Whoops.
The monsters that had been scattered all over the grass rose into the air all at once. When Cha Shin Hyeon opens the bag, it comes in as if it were being sucked in with a vacuum cleaner.
After completing the storage of 370,000 won, Cha Shin Hyeon filled the zipper.
“Then shall we go on?”
Your senses tell you that there is another group of dungeon rabbits beyond the two hills. Cha Shin Hyeon, who pointed his finger in the direction, took a leisurely step.
Cha Eun-seol, who was watching the scene blankly, came to his senses and followed his brother. She asked in her somewhat shaky voice.
“Isn’t this just a blank slate?”
“You could say it’s a one-way street. It is close to the ability that is derived when you learn it. It consumes energy and interferes with things around it.”
“Everything is really possible…”
Cha Eun-seol shook his head sharply.
Cha Shin Hyeon shrugged his shoulders lightly.
“As I said before, the power is not omnipotent. However, the deeper the practice, the closer to being omnipotent. Even if the status is low, at least it is a great help in training the body.”
“I see. Seeing my brother, who is not compensated by stats, swings his sword so quickly. Oh, I’m envious…”
Cha Shin Hyeon tossed in a passing tone at her grumbling sister.
“Why do you want to teach me too?”
