Only I Level Up: Ragnarok Episode 202
Busan Haeundae.
While fighting the Demonic Tribe Xavier there, Suho received a quest from Seong Jinwoo’s illusion.
[Urgent Quest: Prove Your Qualification!]
The illusion of Shadow Lord ‘Seong Jin-woo’ demands proof of qualification from his son.
Defeat the Demonic Tribe’s illusionist, Xavier, and learn new shadow powers.
Suho acquired the ‘Land of the Monarch’ while carrying out this quest, but this was something he had learned on his own and was not a reward for the quest.
There was a separate shadow power that was received after completing the quest.
That’s this new shadow power.
[Skill: Shadow Exchange Lv.1]
Shadow power.
No need for mana.
You can swap the positions of the designated shadow soldier and the caster.
After casting once, it must wait 3 hours before it can be used again. The cooldown time varies depending on the skill level.
This skill is one that allows the Shadow Soldier to change location regardless of where he is, and is almost like teleportation.
As soon as Suho saw this skill, he could immediately understand what its principle was.
‘It’s the same principle as a gate.’
This ability was quite familiar to Suho, who normally used his shadow as a gate to freely enter and exit the other world called the Shadow Dungeon.
After that, Suho immediately realized the usefulness of this skill through several practices, and sent Shadow Soldier Kira to India with Rio Sing in case of an unexpected event.
and.
This is the result.
Boom-!
“Kraaaaak-!”
[Hahaha! Can you hold this? You’re quite the tough guy!]
[High Priest, no, Lord Grid! Rather, we are weaker than before!]
Shadow soldiers Grid and Iron are unilaterally beating up an incredibly large and hideous Naga giant while bursting into hearty laughter.
And Rio Xing, who was watching the wondrous sight from behind, could not help but gape in amazement.
‘Oh my goodness. Were Suho’s summoned creatures that strong?’
‘Naga’, which has the upper body of a human and the lower body of a sea serpent monster, was a semi-boss-level monster that occasionally appeared in upper-level dungeons.
Their size and strength vary greatly from individual to individual, but the steel-like ‘scales’ that basically cover their entire bodies boast extremely strong defensive powers, enough to be used as material for various defensive equipment such as armor and shields.
‘The scales of such a Naga can be so easily… … .’
[Hahahahaha!]
[Hahahahahaha!]
“Crack-! Kyaaaak!”
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The Naga’s tough and solid scales were being crumpled and torn like a sheet of paper under the relentless attacks of the Shadow Soldiers.
‘That’s at least the power of an A-class, or maybe even an S-class Hunter. Those enormous monsters were just summoned by a single Hunter.’
Rio Xing couldn’t help but doubt his eyes.
I couldn’t believe it even after seeing it with my own eyes, so I wondered if anyone would believe me if I told them.
but.
‘It’s dangerous! If the information is correct, they’ve definitely gone out… …!’
Like any elite, Rio Sing had learned as much about Naga as he could before coming here.
A high-level demon that is skilled in both combat and magic, causing difficulties for even seasoned hunters.
Even though they are high-level demons, they always move in groups, making them quite difficult to conquer.
And since this information was not yet widely known due to the extremely rare appearance of Naga, Rio Xing shouted urgently.
“Guardian! Watch out! I heard that they move in groups of at least 30… …!”
Choaaaak!
But before those words could be uttered, all the large and small Nagas that had been hiding in the lake suddenly appeared.
And then I ran over to Grid and Iron, who were fighting against one of them.
Shhhhh!
Kwaaaaah!
but.
This side was by no means outnumbered.
Hehe.
“Are you going to come out with a war of attrition?”
Suho opened his mouth with a meaningful smile.
“Get up.”
… … !
At that moment, the shadow soldiers all rose from Suho’s shadow.
It was quite a spectacle to see them fighting against dozens of Nagas.
And at that sight, Rio Xing finally realized.
‘Oh my goodness. I didn’t just gain a new, powerful summoner.’
I’m talking about the identity of the doubt that had been lingering in a corner of my head the whole time I was following Suho.
‘… … A hunter who is becoming stronger and stronger!’
The Hunter’s power does not change.
That was basic common sense widely known to the world.
Although Hunters can hone their skills in fighting demons and become more skilled through training and runestones, the Hunter’s fundamental power, which is determined at the time of awakening, never changes.
But who would have thought that there would be a hunter who would ignore such common sense and grow day by day?

That too, right before your eyes!
‘This is so stupid… …! Why did I only realize this now!’
Rio Xing finally lamented his own lack of insight.
No matter how many summoners have different variables depending on the summoned creature, I am now certain that the comrade who has gone through life and death with me so many times has special abilities!
Then suddenly.
“… … Ah! Jackson! Jackson!”
This was not the time.
Rio Xing came to his senses late and rescued Jackson, who had lost consciousness inside the overturned truck.
Judging from the state of the horribly mangled truck, it was an accident that could have killed the driver instantly, but fortunately, Jackson, who was a C-class hunter, seemed to have escaped with his life.
[Hmm. Don’t worry. He’s not dead.]
Before anyone knew it, Berga came over and checked on Jackson before flying over to Suho.
Then, Suho, who was commanding the battle, quickly approached Jackson and poured the potion into his mouth.
“… … Cool!”
Rio Xing breathed a sigh of relief as Jackson’s wound on his forehead began to heal.
It was a moment when he realized his responsibility for bringing in his old subordinate, Jackson, because of his own ambitions for promotion.
At the same time, I got goosebumps realizing again how special a hunter Suho was.
It’s amazing that he can summon S-class creatures and also have healer abilities.
At this point, isn’t Seong Su-ho a walking strategic weapon?
“Suho! I have a favor to ask!”
Rio Xing called Suho urgently while supporting Jackson who had regained consciousness.
It was a debt I could never repay for just showing up at the right moment of crisis to save me, but I had no choice but to ask for help, shamelessly.
“Right now, all of our Asura Guild’s power is being deployed here! But it’s so strange that the Nagas are showing up right at the entrance of the field!”
It was exactly as he said.
This is the entrance to the field.
The Asura Guild that came to conquer this field had no choice but to pass by here.
But what are the chances that we would have just passed by without seeing such a large and numerous herd of demons?
“There’s no way they would have intentionally left it like that, something big must have happened that we don’t know about… …!”
“Maybe I just saw it and ignored it.”
“huh?”
The answer did not come from Suho’s mouth.
‘Oh, a lizard?’
Rio Xing was embarrassed.
Before he knew it, a small flying lizard that had been riding on Suho’s shoulder was looking around with solemn eyes.
“Hmm. I guess there are still remnants of the Naga clan alive. Well, it’s always cowards who survive wars.”
Antares took over Ragna’s body as soon as the baby dragon regained his magical power.
His gaze scanned the area, then he noticed a familiar energy vibrating along the lakeside and opened his eyes half-heartedly.
“But it’s strange. I sense the energy of the Yong-in tribe from somewhere here.”
“Yongin tribe?”
“Yes. The Yong-in tribe, like the Naga tribe, was one of the many tribes that served our Gwangryong tribe. And they were all wiped out by your father, without a single one left.”
“So you’ve become a Shadow Legion?”
“Yes. But I don’t know why there’s a smell of the Yong-in tribe here. Could it be that there are survivors like those Nagas?”
At that moment, the battle ended.
Kugu palace!
“Whoa, already?!”
Rio Sing was shocked at the sight of countless Nagas collapsing.
Suho nodded with a satisfied smile as he looked at Grid and Iron among the Shadow Legion that had cleared out the Nagas.
“After all, a career position is a career position.”
Grid and Iron, who once served as part of the Shadow Lord Seong Jin-woo’s legion.
They were new recruits who had just been incorporated into the Guardians’ army, but at the same time, they were experienced rookies who had gained experience in leading the shadow soldiers under their command.
Well, if you think about it, it might be natural.
Grid was also an S-class hunter named Hwang Dong-soo, who belonged to the strongest guild representing America, Scavenger, in his previous life.
Iron was also Kim Chul, a promising Ace and A-rank Hunter from the Baekho Guild, one of the best guilds in Korea in his previous life.
They were not only strong in their own right, but they were also corps commanders who were skilled at leading soldiers.
[Your Majesty! I have returned from a successful hunt as per your command!]
After Grid and Iron hunted the Nagas, they had other soldiers drag the massive corpses in front of Suho without Suho giving any specific orders.
[Your Majesty, how about taking these Nagas as shadow soldiers?]
[Although the Naga people are stupid, they are quite useful animals as livestock.]
As they had served as Sung Jin-woo’s soldiers for a long time, they knew a lot like Ber.
Antares also looked at Naga’s corpse and licked his lips.
“Child of the Shadow. Do you know that? The Naga tribe is originally a group of cowards who hid in the deep waters because they did not want to become prey to our dragons.”
“Prey?”
“Yes. They have a lot of flesh, so they’re perfect prey.”
Gulp.
Antares, who had been licking his tongue and swallowing his saliva the whole time I was explaining Naga, declared confidently.
“I, Antares, the King of the Dragons and Lord of Destruction, declare this! I will eat all of these! Then, the magical power of this wretched Ragna will increase a little!”
“Well, whatever.”
Suho also readily accepted.
Anyway, since I was going to extract the shadow soldiers, I didn’t care about the demon’s corpse.
Of course, it could be sold at a high price if put on the market, but it was much more profitable for the guardian to increase Ragna’s magical power than to make money.
[This is a possible extractable target.]
[This is a possible extractable target.]
… … .
“Get up.”
At Suho’s command, the shadows of the giant Nagas rose up all at once, swirling around.
“Huh-huh-huh?!”
“Wh, what!”
At the sight of such a wondrous sight, Rio Xing and Jackson both collapsed in shock.
The giant demons that were thought to be dead have risen from the dead!
Although their size had slightly decreased compared to before, the black vapor emanating from their entire bodies was that of an evil spirit itself.
But ignoring their surprised reactions, Suho chose the strongest among them and saved them as shadow soldiers under his command.
[Please name the soldier.]
As usual, a message popped up asking me to give the soldier a name.
“Um. Get out, get out… … That’s it. No, let’s call him Gordon.”
[Would you like to call it ‘Gordon’?]
“okay.”
Suho gave the boy the name ‘Gordon’ without much thought.
With this, a powerful giant demonic Naga family has been added to the Guardian’s Shadow Legion.
But more than that, something else was of greater interest to Suho.
This is the previous job quest.
While hunting this group of Nagas, I gained a whopping level of 4, and as a result… … .
[Level: 87]
Suho glanced at the status window and smiled faintly while looking ahead.
“… … This place was much better than I thought, wasn’t it?”
Antares advised Suho with a stern look.
“More than that, be careful of the Yong-in tribe. After all… … Beep?”
Ragnar is back.
[The King of the Mad Dragons, the Lord of Destruction, covers his face in frustration.]
[The King of the Dragons, the Lord of Destruction, nags Ragna about having to feed those Nagas… … .]
