9.
Kwon Young-woo put a lot of effort into this plan.
Not only did I intentionally pay a high price to buy a D-class gate ticket.
I distracted Seo Yi-jun by demonstrating a debuff skill pretending to be a lesson.
All that was left was to stab him in the back once.
“But what are you doing all of a sudden?”
“uh?”
Seo Yi-jun figured out his intentions in advance, no matter what trick he used.
“It seems a bit excessive for a joke.”
Kwaaaaak… .
As if that wasn’t enough, a wire made of magical power was sticking out and binding his wrist.
“This is amazing.”
First, I put strength into my forearms and cut the wire.
“How did you know? Was I a lot different than usual? I don’t think so.”
“Yeah. It was the same as usual.”
Seo Yi-jun gave a short affirmative answer.
Because in his previous life, Seo Yi-jun didn’t have a single suspicion about Kwon Young-woo.
“It’s me who has changed.”
“Huh. They say that sometimes people change when they awaken. Jun, it looks like you’re exactly that kind of person.”
Kwon Young-woo accepted that Seo Yi-jun’s change was due to awakening.
“Jun-ah, listen. I need you to kill some necromancers.”
“Why? Then, can I steal traits as well as skills?”
Kwon Young-woo was amazed by Seo Yi-jun’s response.
“Oh, that’s right. It’s unlucky to pretend to be sharp, but it’s right. And stealing? That’s imitation.”
“Why on earth do you have to kill other people to become stronger?”
“Why? Because I’m a hunter! To become stronger, to kill more monsters, I choose more efficient methods!”
“…Is that so?”
Should that also be called a fighting spirit?
It wasn’t easy to understand.
I didn’t even want to be convinced.
“I’ll take your trait. [Balanced Bone] The way you put it on isn’t very good, but I think it’s good enough.”
“[Balanced skeleton] That’s on purpose.”
“huh?”
“I twisted it upside down on purpose to make you sick.”
“… … Wow. Jun-ah. I’ll make you feel how much it hurts.”
Kwon Young-woo lifted his head and let out a thick murderous aura.
There is a reason why Seo Yi-jun is having such a worthless conversation.
“It’s almost time.”
It’s a waste of time.
“Time? What the hell are you talking about, huh?!”
Suddenly, Kwon Young-woo bent his knees and coughed harshly.
Crimson blood was present. * * *
“This is… … poison?”
As expected of a B-class hunter, Kwon Young-woo immediately realized that he was addicted.
“Jun-ah. While you were torturing this hyung, did you use poison on him?”
He brushed aside the late-appearing addiction message and wiped the blood from his mouth with the back of his hand.
“It might be useless to find out now, but I’ll tell you. Cool! An experienced hunter like you always carries things like this.”
Kwon Young-woo continued to vomit blood and took something out of his inventory.
“antidote?”
“You’re quick-witted. That’s right. A B-grade antidote.”
Class B antidote.
Completely cures addictions of level C or lower.
It has the effect of alleviating addiction of class B or higher by one level.
“It’s amazing that you managed to obtain a Class D poison that works on me, but even so, this is just one bottle… … Huh?”
After leisurely drinking the antidote, Kwon Young-woo tilted his head after checking his status window.
[Status Abnormality: Poisoning (C)]
Addiction (C).
‘Why is this still there?’
I drank the Class B antidote, so I should be completely cured, right?
“… You’re saying it was a Class B poison?”
“You’re quick-witted. That’s right. Class B poison.”
Seo Yi-jun nodded his head, quoting Kwon Young-woo’s lines from earlier.
“Hey.”
If a hunter wants to use an item higher than his own level, he needs some kind of connection.
“Is this a trait that even allows you to create B-grade poison items?”
For example, making it yourself.
“Yeah. But you’re pretty relaxed.”
“Well, C-class poison damage isn’t much of a threat to a B-class hunter… … Cool?!”

Kwon Young-woo stopped talking and started spitting blood again.
A message appeared before his eyes.
[I’m addicted (B)]
[Status Abnormality: Poisoning (B) X2]
.
.
.
[I’m addicted (B)]
[Status Abnormality: Poisoning (B) X10]
[Addiction (B) damage stacks 10x (max).]
“This, crazy, 10 times… … ?!”
Kwon Young-woo’s expression was filled with shock.
“No, it won’t work, yes. I have to kill you, and attack the gate, uh… Cool! It’ll explode!”
At Kwon Young-woo’s command, three of his skeleton soldiers exploded.
Kwaaaaah!
-Dalgrak… … !
The bone fragments swirled around like a whirlwind, instantly turning the skeleton soldiers of Seo Yi-jun around them into tatters.
Unusual explosive power.
This was thanks to repeatedly selecting the skull explosion option while imitating the skill.
“Now, yes, your turn… .”
“Go back.”
“?”
Seo Yi-jun interrupted Kwon Young-woo and gave orders to the skeleton unit.
The 15 skeleton soldiers disappeared, melting into their own shadows.
“Come out.”
“!”
A total of 29 skeleton soldiers.
-Less!
-Less than that.
Skeleton guards and skeleton warlocks appeared.
“……huh?”
Kwon Young-woo blinked.
It was confusing.
‘I know because I copied it. [Summoning Skeleton Soldier] was D-rank. Then it should be the 15th generation?’
Because Seo Yijun summoned twice as many skeleton soldiers as his rank, I don’t know what trick he used.
“… … ?”
Among them, one of the skeleton soldiers particularly caught my eye.
‘Why on earth does that kid have a scythe on his arm?’
The Skeleton Soldier’s signature weapon, the old sword, is no longer available, and instead, he has a scythe attached to his arm.
A menacing light streamed out from the empty skull.
“… … ?”
And that’s not all.
‘Why is that kid’s gear that color?’
The magic bottle also catches the eye.
The staff and robe, which should have been gray, were somehow a faded black.
‘… Wait. The color isn’t the problem! A magic bottle? A magic bottle? Where did you get the corpse of a magic monster?’
An even bigger problem is the existence of magic bottles themselves.
‘How can a D-class hunter who awakened two weeks ago save the corpse of a magical monster?’
There were more than one or two things that were questionable like this.
‘I don’t know. Tsk. Let’s just catch Jun and imitate him.’
Rather than worrying about it, I decided to focus on devouring the tempting prey right in front of me.
The 10 stacks of addiction damage were just annoying, not a big deal.
‘I won’t die from this anyway.’
Poisons of the same level will only bring the hunter to the brink of death, but will not cause death itself.
‘Look. The coughing up blood is starting to stop.’
As the hemoptysis stopped, the poison damage that had been plaguing my entire body also subsided.
In fact, this was a sign that Kwon Young-woo’s stamina had hit rock bottom.
The so-called dying judgment.
This is why it is difficult to move forward rashly.
‘No matter how big the country is, it’s impossible to mix and match the skills of multiple classes.’
Thanks to that, the skills that Kwon Young-woo currently possesses are poor.
[Scan] is the only skill learned from the Awakened Skill Book and is not affected by class.
Other than that, all I had were [Curse of Weakness], [Summon Skeleton], and [Balanced Skeleton] copied from Seo Yi-jun.
‘The synergy of the three skills is good. Let’s push forward with the skeleton soldier.’
Seo Yi-jun’s skeleton soldiers have doubled in number?
Even so, it’s only 30 contributions.
This is the 50th.
“Tread on it!”
-Dalgrak!
The skeleton soldiers began to advance.
Until this point, Kwon Young-woo was confident of a landslide victory.
but.
-Dalgrak!
-Clang, clang!
Dozens of skeletons are tangled together and rattling, and it won’t be long before they are there.
“?”
That confidence was questioned.
How can I do that?
That one holds up so well.
‘They’re the same F-class skeleton soldiers. How can they hold out when their numbers are so different?’
I don’t understand it at all.
To be exact, they are not even the same F-class skeleton soldiers.
‘[Balanced Skeleton] is higher grade on my side, right? There’s also the option to add weight!’
Seo Yi-jun’s [Balanced Skeleton] has no time limit, but it is meaningless since the battle has just begun.
In contrast, Kwon Young-woo’s skeleton soldiers have their defense increased with the weight option.
This side had the advantage both quantitatively and qualitatively.
‘Why!’
But the results are tight.
no.
I didn’t want to admit it, but.
‘It’s being pushed!’
Kwon Young-woo’s skeleton soldiers were being pushed back.
‘… … !’
Kwon Young-woo soon realized the reason.
‘The movement is different.’
Skeleton soldiers do not fear injury or death.
But Seo Yi-jun’s skeleton soldier wasn’t at that level.
It’s still the same now.
Crunch!
Quazajak!
He broke the enemy’s pelvis by exposing his own shoulder blade.
You give a bone and get more bone in return.
-Dalgrak!
The ending was done by another soldier nearby, and the flow was very natural.
In this way, based on the premise of self-destruction, the entire camp moved organically, so the fighting power increased two-fold and three-fold.
“You guys do it too! Throw your body at them and block them! Fight! … … Damn it! Why can’t you do it!”
Even though Kwon Young-woo shouted, his skeleton soldier never showed any movement.
But from Kwon Young-woo’s perspective, the skeleton soldiers weren’t the only problem.
-Less!
“That son of a bitch!”
A bizarrely-looking skeleton soldier with a scythe attached to his right arm.
Bam!
Every time the guy swung his scythe at the front, the skeleton soldiers with increased defense split like dry firewood.
“Tch. It’s going to explode!”
Pupupupupu! Pupupupu!
Kwon Young-woo detonated three immobile skeleton soldiers.
As the debris whirled around like a storm, ten skeleton soldiers on Seo Yijun’s side were destroyed.
I thought this would help restore the balance that had been pushed back.
Swoosh… puff puff puff puff!
An arrow of darkness flying from afar broke the balance again.
“That son of a bitch!”
-Less than more~
It was the work of a magician wearing black robes and carrying a staff.
“Come out.”
“Come out.”
Seo Yi-jun and Kwon Young-woo supplemented the skeleton soldiers that had been reduced in number.
Kwon Young-woo frowned.
‘I hate to admit it, but if this side’s ability is lacking, then we can just bring down the other side’s ability!’
Kwon Young-woo sprayed the debuff skill [Curse of Weakness] towards Seo Yi-jun’s skeleton soldiers.
[The Skeleton Troop is afflicted with a curse of reduced attack power (B).]
[The Skeleton Troops are afflicted with a Curse of Reduced Defense (B).]
Seo Yi-jun’s response was simple.
“Go back.”
After summoning the skeleton soldiers.
“Come out.”
Summon again.
The Necromancer’s pitch black has the ability to repair damaged summons.
And pitch black recognizes debuffs as damage.
‘… … Summon everyone again to remove the debuff?’
Even so, what Seo Yi-jun did was extremely outrageous.
Kwon Young-woo was momentarily embarrassed, but soon laughed inside.
‘Phew! Yes, that’s right. Even if it had a fraudulent trait, it was a sunflower.’
A misjudgment resulting from lack of experience.
‘Oh my~ Jun-ah~ If you keep summoning like that, will your magic power remain?’
In a situation where he was confronting Kwon Young-woo himself, he would even summon a healthy skeleton soldier to remove the debuff?
The magical power consumption was too great.
‘This will be over soon.’
Although it’s a bit humiliating to not be able to press on and wait for self-destruction.
But it will end soon.
one side.
‘Magic power, what a waste.’
Seo Yi-jun was also concerned about his own magic power.
‘It’s definitely a shame to have this much left over.’
Even though we’re fighting so fiercely, we still have too much magic left.
