Trait Absorption Hunter Hunter Part 2 Episode 98
98. Two-handed test
“Let’s put on our gear.”
Before entering the dungeon, Choi Sung-min held two daggers.
In his right hand, he holds the bloody dagger of an assassin he used before.
In his left hand he held his doppelganger’s replica sword.
Then the cloned sword shook and changed its appearance.
With the assassin’s bloody dagger.
‘It’s not just the appearance. Even the options are exactly the same.’
It is an attack power and an option, and since it is completely copied, the reflexes have also increased.
‘The advantage of dual wielding is that since you have two weapons, you can get additional stat options.’
However, the downside is that it has a slow attack speed and is difficult to handle, but it is not a problem.
‘Because I have the dual wielding ability.’
Choi Sung-min’s eyes became filled with life as he entered the dungeon.
Without even knowing it, the hunters laughed at themselves for using dual swords.
Complete carelessness.
They probably don’t even have the assumption in their heads that Choi Sung-min will launch a surprise attack first.
Crunch-!
My head floats into the air.
I swung only my left hand to test the performance of the cloned dagger.
But like that, he died without being able to do anything.
“You can’t even react… … How disappointing?”
The headless body of the hunter falls to the ground.
‘It’s definitely effective, judging by the single-edged sword cut.’
The attack power of the cloned dagger was real.
Two hunters are seen blankly in Choi Sung-min’s field of vision.
“Hey, both of you, put your weapons on. Be my test subject.”
The hunters, who finally came to their senses at those words, were surprised and stepped back.
“Hyun-su is dead!”
“Hey, you crazy psycho kid!”
‘Who is calling whom a psychopath?’
Choi Sung-min couldn’t even laugh at that intense reaction.
“Come on. You must avenge your comrades.”
This is a chance to test just how strong this sword is in a duel.
‘I heard it’s beneficial to the majority.’
The opponent is an A-class hunter.
It is clear to a discerning eye that both have a combat power of over 500,000.
I even knew each of their names.
‘You’re not rushing in because you’re scared, are you?’
Let’s worry about that for a moment.
“This is a foot.”
“Books you.”
Fortunately, the guys seemed to think that their comrade had died because he let his guard down, so they showed a belligerent attitude.
His eyes were also filled with murderous intent.
But when I read his thoughts, I realized he had no intention of killing me right away.
-X-Foot, I want to tear you to pieces, but I can’t kill you because I’d be wasting the items.
-Cut off both of your legs, make the floor crawl, tear off everything you need, and then kill you.
I hope you do your best if possible.
‘But since you have the will to fight, I guess we can test you to some extent.’
When Choi Sung-min snickered provocatively, the guys got angry.
“개새끼가!”
Two hunters rushed in at the same time.
Since both of them were holding swords, Choi Sung-min was bound to be at a disadvantage in the fight.
Besides, there are two opponents.
To block two swords with one dagger, you would have to move twice as fast.
But Choi Sung-min’s dagger was not just one.
Knock knock knock-!
He moves both hands in a flashy manner and strikes away the opponent’s sword.
The dagger’s characteristic red light moves like a snake, disrupting swordplay.
A look of bewilderment appears on the hunters’ faces.
-Huh, why? Why is everything blocked?
-What the heck is this kid, F**k!
I couldn’t believe that someone could cut off their own sword with something like a dagger.
-Damn it, why can’t I reach it!
-What on earth is that kid’s reflexes?
The guys’ confused thoughts were conveyed, but regardless, Choi Sung-min only focused on defense.
Knock knock knock-!
As time passed, the hunters’ expressions became increasingly ugly.

-You little shit! Since it’s come to this, I’m going to kill you!
Vertically, horizontally, and diagonally.
I tried playing around with the sword, cutting and stabbing, but the result was always the same.
Knock knock knock knock-!
-You’re crazy, you’re going to throw all this away?
-Even though the two of us are attacking?
Although the two were attacking, the opponent’s defense was strong.
It’s like two people are kicking the ball around recklessly and the goalkeeper is the only one blocking them all.
-No, I’m not alone. It’s like… … .
-It feels like I’m dealing with two people.
Even after attacking for about a minute, not a single wound was inflicted.
I’ve already used this skill.
But even those are all deflected by the dagger.
It was something that was impossible without overwhelming strength and agility.
“It’s trivial. Let’s end the test here.”
As soon as Choi Sungmin finished speaking, the hunters’ wrists were cut off.
“eww……!”
“ah……!”
I wanted to scream, but I didn’t have time to.
Creak-!
The hunters’ necks were cut off simultaneously.
Knock- knock-
The only person standing in silence was Choi Sung-min.
‘This sword is really strong.’
In a duel, Ito-ryu was definitely strong.
I was able to control both hands freely, as if I was fighting 2 on 2 instead of 1 on 2.
There was no accidental clash of daggers.
‘Since each person was in charge of one hand, there was plenty of room for two people to attack.’
If the opponent has two swords, then this side also has two daggers.
By dividing the left and right hands and marking them one-on-one, I was able to block them with relative ease.
‘Of course, it’s a control that ordinary people can never imitate.’
It was an extraordinary journey that was only possible because of the characteristics of the two-sword style.
[Hunter Kim Hyun-soo was killed.]
[Hunter Ko Dongmyeong killed.]
[Killed Hunter Jang Pil-seong.]
… … … … …
… … …
[Assimilation rate 17.6%]
Choi Sung-min, who was looking at the message with indifferent eyes, checked the characteristics and items.
‘Nothing much different.’
Their characteristics were nothing special, and their items were inferior to mine.
‘Still, I’ve gained some traits, so I’ve grown a little bit. The assimilation rate has also gone up a little.’
It wasn’t bad, but it wasn’t cost-effective compared to killing Song Chi-hyun’s direct subordinates and acquiring a bunch of S-class traits.
‘If we’re going to do it, it’s better to kill the good guys… … .’
Suddenly, a target came to mind.
‘Kwak Min-cheol. If I kill him and his direct subordinates, I’ll be able to grow significantly again, right?’
Kwak Min-cheol has a hobby of gathering B-class or higher hunters.
We only recruit elites who demonstrate outstanding skills, not just the haphazard ones.
If you kill and absorb all of those subordinates, another period of rapid growth is possible.
‘But before that, I need to acquire Kwak Min-cheol’s traits.’
Kwak Min-cheol’s characteristics were similar to Choi Seong-min’s Hunter.
‘It’s a trait that increases your stats when you kill a hunter.’
This was also the reason why Kwak Min-cheol gathered talented people.
‘They plan to raise it and then eat it.’
That’s why Kwak Min-cheol had to be dealt with.
If possible, you should deal with it as soon as possible to take advantage of its characteristics.
‘Maybe he’s got his eye on me.’
As I felt the last time we talked, Kwak Min-cheol seemed surprised by his fighting prowess.
‘There has never been a hunter in history who grew to the extent of me.’
Because the obstacle called Song Chi-hyeon was gone, there was a high chance that Kwak Min-cheol would make contact.
Because in his eyes, he was just a lost puppy.
‘Go under Kwak Min-cheol and wipe out him, his subordinates, and the human trafficking organization.’
possible.
If the current fighting power is enough to kill Kogodo.
Now that it has become stronger with the dual wielding characteristic.
and…….
‘If you get promoted to S-class.’
Someone like Kwak Min-cheol could be crushed into crumbs.
* * *
Pew pew pew pew pew!
Dozens of daggers were stabbed into the head of the black-winged dragonfly.
Passs …
The guy’s head can’t hold on and disintegrates.
‘You can put ten rooms in just one second… … .’
It was no exaggeration.
With the addition of an additional dagger to the already high attack speed, he was able to land dozens of shots in a short period of time.
‘Since I have two weapons, I can quickly stack up 10 stacks of the Fierce Attack trait.’
Because the attack speed was fast, it felt like the 10% chance of ignoring defense was triggered frequently.
‘The hunting speed has definitely increased.’
It feels like it’s twice as fast.
Even if you only use normal attacks, the monster dies in less than 2 seconds.
‘This is the first time I’ve caught something this fast with just normal attacks.’
It wasn’t just the normal attack that got stronger.
Squeak-!
The monster’s neck was sliced like tofu with the shadow step and neck slit combo.
The neck cut skill, which deals double damage when attacked from behind, was no different from a fatal skill.
‘cutting.’
Even if you use your skills from the front, the monsters won’t be able to withstand it without having to attack from behind.
‘With a burst of over 20,000, the damage is no joke.’
Swish- bang!
Even if you throw the weakest dagger, it’s still a one-hit kill.
‘You should just assume that no matter what skill you use, you’ll die in one hit.’
Since the dual wield characteristic increases skill damage by 25%, I was able to land a guaranteed hit.
‘It was the same room before, though.’
While moving forward, easily dealing with the monsters.
Choaaaak-
As soon as I killed one of the salt shakers, a joyful message came to mind.
[Promoted to S-Class!]
[Two skill slots are added.]
‘Has your fighting power increased?’
I checked the status window and it was as expected.
The fighting power had now reached 1 million.
‘Goal achieved.’
Now, if you change your items and learn new skills, you will become stronger than you are now.
[800 reflexes are added due to the effect of the Growing Reflexes trait.]
The first message that came to mind was bonus stats by trait.
‘800? That’s huge.’
In addition, since it became an S-class, the item effect called Demon’s Aura would have been applied.
‘This will increase skill damage by an additional 25%.’
What if we combine the 10% trait from killing Park Gwang-jin before, the 25% dual swordsmanship, and the 25% demonic aura?
Skill damage increases by a total of 60%.
‘Now that you’ve reached S-class, you can use the Legendary Weapon Exchange Ticket and the Transcendent-class Random Box.’
Here you can also wear the Angel’s Protection Necklace that protects your life and the Balzac Ring that increases your stamina regeneration by 3,000%.
As soon as you reach S-class, you will experience tremendous growth.
‘There may be many S-classes in the world, but there’s no S-class that grows as fast as me.’
Choi Sung-min’s current ranking was 207th.
It is said that there are 200 S-class hunters in the world.
‘If we assume that there are 200 out of 1 million hunters, it may be considered a small number… … .’
It was a bit too much by Choi Sung-min’s standards.
Of course, among them, there is absolutely no hunter who shows growth like Choi Seong-min.
‘If it’s revealed next month that I’ve become an S-class… … .’
I couldn’t even imagine what the aftermath would be.
Perhaps Kwak Min-cheol’s treatment will change overnight?
‘I don’t know if Kwak Min-cheol will still be alive by then, though.’
While he was thinking like that, Choi Sungmin’s dagger began to glow red.
We have entered the final stage.
[Assassin’s Bloody Dagger (Growth Type)]
-Category: Weapon
– Grade: S (holder’s grade)
-Attack power: 5,600~6,400
-Effect: Reflexes +450, additional attack power +3,000 for 10 seconds when making a surprise attack, additional attack power +6,000 when making a surprise attack after stealth
– Durability: Infinite
-Usage restrictions: S-class or higher (bound)
-Description: A dagger that grows according to the level of the holder. It is currently in the final stage. A magic core is required for the final evolution.
‘This concludes the dagger’s growth.’
Now that he has reached the highest level a human can reach, S-class, his growth has probably stopped.
‘for a moment.’
But Choi Seong-min, who was reading the explanation, opened his eyes wide.
‘You need a magic core for the final evolution?’
In short, it means that you can grow more here.
Choi Sung-min took out the core of magic power and looked at it.
‘Originally, I was going to combine it with the legendary weapon, but… … .’
There was no reason to worry since I could strengthen my main weapon, the dagger.
Seongmin Choi opened the combination window and placed the items.
[Assassin’s Bloody Dagger]+[Magic Core]
I pressed the combination button without hesitation.
[Trying a combination.]
[Using the core of magic power, the power of the assassin’s bloody dagger is awakened.]
[Combination success!]
[The true power of the Assassin’s Bloody Dagger has been awakened.]
[The dagger has evolved into its final form!]
