Trait Hoarder Chapter 215

Episode 215 Succession -2-

Guhyeongwon crawls on his knees.

“Now, wait a minute, Your Majesty. I made a mistake.”

It’s a mean sight.

How many months ago was it?

This appearance is completely different from the first impression I got when I first met him, when he showed off his stormy power.

Guhyeongwon spoke as if begging.

“If you ask me to pay, I will. If you ask me to become a slave, I will. If you ask me to pay all my property, I will gladly accept it. So please, please forgive me for abandoning my military service.”

Both eyes are shaking as if there was an earthquake.

Fear and anxiety are embedded like thorns.

It can’t be helped.

He is a level 7 superhuman.

Sword Master and the ultimate swordsman.

In the original world, they were not members of the National Assembly, but a privileged class comparable to medieval nobles.

You have to lose all those abilities.

Even worse, they become weaker than ordinary people and have to live their entire lives struggling.

So it must be raining here.

Because I want to be a superhuman even if it means becoming my slave.

But I shook my head slowly.

He looked straight at the commander and said.

“Commander, I request the same treatment.”

“That’s poisonous. Yes, you’re right.”

A death sentence handed down in front of one’s face.

Guhyeongwon opens his mouth.

On the other hand, the commander is indifferent.

“If you’re not poisonous, you’re not a general.”

“Black! Grandfather!”

Guhyeongwon screaming desperately.

It was no use.

The commander mercilessly destroyed Guhyeongwon’s dantian, and Guhyeongwon was dragged out by his adjutants after crying like a child.

The office became eerily quiet.

“Hoooo.”

The commander sat down and let out a long sigh.

“They say the darkness is under the lamp, but I was looking in the wrong place without even realizing that the light under my feet was going out.”

“I’m sorry.”

“sorry.”

“Okay. You guys, remember this too. You must apologize for your sins as soon as possible. If something like this happens again, I will give you the same punishment.”

“I will keep that in mind.”

“I’m tired. Everyone except Geomseong, step back.”

“Yes, Commander.”

Officers are ebbing away like the tide.

The corps commander buried himself in the chair.

There was a look of fatigue plastered all over his face.

I lowered my head quietly.

“I’m sorry for making noise.”

“What do you have to be sorry about? It’s all my stupid children who are the problem. Phew, I should have educated them properly when they were young.”

“Wasn’t that the situation?”

“That’s true. Anyway, I feel sorry for you. Those stupid kids caused trouble for you.”

“Don’t worry about it. I’m not hurt at all.”

“But I have to give you what you deserve. Thanks to you, Geomseong, I was able to remove the cancer in the legion. In return, I’ll give you a little bit of your sword.”

My sword?

I must have made a strange expression without realizing it.

The commander burst into laughter.

“I’m not telling you to become my disciple, so don’t make that face. Since you don’t have a teacher, it’s inevitable that your sword will get tainted. Even if you’ve become a sword master and have reached the ultimate realm, you still have to check it once at this point to reach level 8.”

I level up by accumulating traits, so I won’t be bothered by that…

But it is a favor shown by the commander.

There is no reason to refuse.

“If you would teach me, I would be happy to accept it.”

“Tsk tsk. This is what it means to bow down and receive my blessing, Inseok! When I was in my prime, warriors and warriors from all over the country would come to me in trucks filled to the brim, even if it was just for a moment!”

“It’s the same now. In fact, isn’t the entire Eastern Army your disciples?”

“Anyway, the guy who knows that… … Tsk tsk. Follow me.”

The commander entered the private elevator on one side of the office.

The spacious elevator descends.

Over a hundred floors, all the way to the basement.

Deepest underground was a secret training ground exclusively for the legion commander.

A place where all kinds of reinforcing magic circles and defensive magic circles are engraved in three dimensions.

The commander stood on one side of the training ground and drew his sword.

“Okay, Sword Master. Try your best attack.”

“Are you okay?”

“Yonsuk-ah. If you even brush the tip of my hair, or even the collar of my clothes, I’ll compliment you. No, you want to make a bet? If you brush my collar, I’ll give you a building similar to the one that Jeong-ju gave you. What do you think?”

“Are you serious?”

“Seriously. Kid, Level 7 is just the beginning. It’s the ultimate and all, but it’s on a different level from Transcendence. A level.”

I know that too.

Just think of the Holy Father of the Church of Thor.

My Extermination Lightning is best used to destroy a single factory, but the Thor Church’s Holy Father has shown that the Extermination Lightning has the power to destroy even a small city.

The solar eclipse observed through the ear was similar.

“Whew.”

I’m curious.

Mars-Nephilim-Kalaratri linkage.

How effective would that be for a level 8?

[Mars Gladiator][Real Fight][Air Raid]

[Giant’s Power][Diamond Body][Immortal]

Equipped with Mars Build.

The characteristics are completely reorganized.

A sharp, sharp energy flowed from my body.

A blatant change of trait.

“Oh.”

The commander exclaimed quietly.

“That is the Heavenly Horse Body I have only heard of.”

You may have seen it before.

When engaging in a one-on-one duel with the former Hunter’s Association President.

However, the commander is a warrior-type superhuman, and does not have sensory traits such as hearing or sixth sense.

So you must have been wondering for a long time.

“hmm…….”

The commander was beating his chest with a strange expression on his face.

“How strange, young one. Try that a few more times. There’s something I want to check.”

Why are you doing that?

I was puzzled, but nodded.

“All right.”

[Nephilim’s Sword][Master of the Sword][Magic Soul]

[Silence Invincible Sword Technique][Thor’s Training Technique][Concentration]

Nephilim build.

[Kalaratree][Island War][One Thousand Against One]

[Ear][Sixth sense][Dance]

And the Kalaratri build.

The commander let out a hollow laugh.

“Heh heh heh.”

And then, whoosh, he starts to show off his momentum.

Activated spirit trait.

The resulting blade-like magical wave.

It was eroding me like a typhoon, or a tidal wave.

If I hadn’t quickly switched to a Mars build and a Trinity build, I would have just fallen to my knees.

‘what?’

weird.

Was the commander’s morale really like this?

I feel a lot stronger than before.

If it had been like this when we first met, I wouldn’t have been able to bear it and would have given in.

“The Heavenly Demon Body is amazing, amazing, I’ve heard stories about it, but it’s really amazing. Now, this is my unique superpower. When I heard from the wizards, they called me [Hero], which is too much.”

hero!

One of the strongest characteristics of Arcane Seoul.

This is a trait that makes you stronger in all directions when fighting an opponent of a higher rank than you.

The strongest buff limited to boss monsters and high-level villains.

Even though there are limitations, the increase is incomparable to that of one day per thousand.

The strength of a giant and a diamond body combined cannot be compared.

“I’ve also heard about the Commander’s unique superpower. It activates? On me?”

“okay.”

The Heavenly Demon is the Almighty, the power that comes from the soul.

It seems that the soul’s status, which has accumulated enough karma to become a god, is exposed when using the trait conversion.

The commander’s eyes lit up.

“I can’t do this moderately. Come in and see. Give it your all. Right now, I’m about twice as strong as I usually am.”

You’ve become twice as strong?

That’s totally a scam.

[Silence Invincible Sword Technique][Silence Invincible Heart Technique][Master of the Sword]

[Runaway train][Merchant of spirit][Hero]

The Legion Commander’s trait window.

All of the hero power circuits on the upper attributes are lit up and blinking.

If you lose focus even for a moment, the sword will fly away.

I pushed my stomach hard and kicked the ground.

fault!

The rush is light.

The force of the air raid causes a sharp change in direction.

After the illusion, a head-on charge.

Mars’s gladiator bared his fangs and aimed for the legion commander’s heart.

“Good!”

The commander exclaims.

Then the sword comes rushing in.

For a moment, my mind went blank.

A simple stab.

Or a flash.

The silent lightning of the silent invincible sword technique that I also know well.

That sword that slowly extended out, that ordinary sword, was now devouring the world.

“Eeeeek!”

Switched to a Nephilim build.

It emits black and white smoke.

Naturally, it follows the path of sword fighting shown by Mars’s sword fighting method.

But I knew.

Even if I use this sword, I won’t be able to deflect that counterattack.

Kwaang!

A commander who easily overpowers me.

Black and white sword?

The ultimate swordsmanship technique?

None of that was necessary.

The pure and sublime sword was embedded in the commander’s counterattack.

The sword, the sword of the Nephilim, crushed me and crushed me.

Kalaratree activated.

It comes out like lightning.

In the midst of all this, he digs into the arms of the commander and attempts a counterattack.

An attack that leaps through space.

Phew!

But just before the attack could be struck.

I felt my eyes going dark.

Even though I was clearly using Kalaratri and in an invincible state, the hot impact bounced me back.

“Cough!”

Blood spurts out.

It is spewed out like a fountain, decorating the empty space.

I barely managed to hold on to my senses.

Equipped with a large air strike, it balanced out the escape while also providing self-healing with immortality and recovery series characteristics.

“Oh! Are you okay? I got excited without realizing it.”

“I’m fine. What did you do?”

“How can I do it? It’s a variation of the ability to transform into spirit or element, but if you use the power properly, you can deal damage. It’s not just me, but all the other level 8s as well. If you’re going to use that grabbing technique, think about it again. Do you understand?”

The technique of catching a Kalaratree.

Anyway, it was a good experience.

If I hadn’t known that it didn’t work on level 8s, I might have used it openly later and gotten hurt.

If I ever fight a level 8 boss, I’ll have to use only burst damage and attribute damage.

For example, a saint, a saint… … .

“And you. When you use that Thousand-Mage Body, you start to see it fail little by little.”

“Bankruptcy?”

“It’s just a moment, but it’s hesitating.”

“Huh? That can’t be true.”

“There’s no way that’s possible. I see you better than you do, you little punk!”

“Isn’t it the same as moving? I care about that too.”

“This is the problem, this is the problem.”

The commander tapped his head.

“A break in thought is occurring. Movements continue just fine, but the flow of magical power is momentarily halted.”

“Magic flow?”

“Yeah. About 0.01 seconds?”

0.01 seconds?

Wouldn’t that be okay?

The commander’s face became serious as if he had noticed my thoughts.

“0.01 seconds is enough time to cut off your neck. Think of your enemy.”

That’s true.

Saint.

And the old father who will be resurrected, albeit imperfectly.

To deal with both of them, you cannot afford to be lacking in even the slightest way.

I bowed and expressed my gratitude.

“Thank you for teaching me. It helped me a lot.”

“What? It’s just beginning.”

“Yes? You’re going to teach me more?”

“Of course, Yonsuk. If I had never taught you, you wouldn’t know, but once I teach you, I teach you perfectly. That’s my rule. Now, come back in.”

8 days.

This is the time when I was taught by the commander.

Certainly, the teacher’s presence was great.

After three days, I also became aware of the breakdown in my magical power flow, and after five more days, when it became the eighth day, the magical power breakdown caused by the change in trait was completely corrected.

That is, it was possible to naturally switch characteristics.

No need to concentrate.

Without having to think about changing from this trait to that trait.

Like breathing.

Comfortable and easy, like flowing water.

This alone is tremendous growth.

But on the last day, the commander gave me an incredible gift.

“Turn around and sit down.”

“Like this?”

“Okay. Grit your teeth and don’t say or make any sound.”

“What is that…? Huh?”

“I told you to shut up.”

The commander put his palm on my back.

Between the 2nd and 3rd lumbar vertebrae, commonly referred to as the famous point in martial arts.

A hot breeze is coming.

The powerful magical power, internal energy, and true form of the Silent Invincible Mind Technique are being infused into me through the Myungmun point.

My lower abdomen, which was empty without any danjeon, had only some of the magic circuits extended out.

Of course, we clean the area thoroughly and forcefully form a danjeon.

It’s hot.

It feels like a lava-like energy is supporting my lower abdomen.

It feels like being stabbed with a red-hot knife.

I groaned and became confused, but I held back.

I know exactly what this is.

I know very well that if I couldn’t hold it in and raised my voice, both I and the commander would be in danger.

Physical strength.

In other words, transfer of internal energy.

‘Why, why is it like this… … .’

I soon found out the answer.

Internal energy that slowly enters the completed danjeon.

A magical circuit wrapped in internal energy.

Because I noticed its identity.

[hero]

What the commander handed over was not only his own magical power.

He even passed on his own unique characteristics.

A life built over decades.

While fighting for independence, he destroyed all the evidence he had accumulated while fighting against the People’s Army and the Chinese Army during the Korean War.

[Silence Invincible Sword Technique][Silence Invincible Heart Technique][Master of the Sword]

[Runaway train][Merchant of spirit]

The middle of the six-horsepower circuit is empty.

It will probably be supplemented with new features soon.

But no matter what the trait is, it cannot compare to the strongest trait in Arcane Seoul, Hero.

“Commander… … .”

A commander who grew old in an instant.

There are deep wrinkles on his face.

The corps commander, who looked to be in his 40s, is no more.

He’s almost an old man, almost like his eldest son.

I find myself bowing my head.

“I’m sorry. Because of me… … .”

“Huh. I did it because I liked it. I have nothing to be sorry about.”

The commander poked my stomach.

“You won’t be able to use it for a while anyway. It needs time to digest, so I sealed it. When you reach level 8, drink the nectar to awaken your danjeon. Then, your hero power will be activated.”

Opening your danjeon is a bonus.

Originally, the source of my magical power was my heart, but my danjeon wasn’t bad either.

Because it is dual core, it has two hearts and two engines.

I bowed my head even deeper.

“I sincerely thank you. How can I repay this favor?”

“Okay. If you really care about it, then you can beat that damned Cheonma later. You know? If Japan is the enemy for 100 years, then China is the enemy for 1000 years.”

“I know.”

I guess that saying exists in this world too.

The commander drank the elixir and nectar in succession.

Then, as if the biological clock were turning back, you regain your youth.

He recovered from being an old man in his 80s who was on the verge of death to being in his early 50s.

Not perfect, but looking healthy.

When I saw that, I finally felt relieved.

“Old!”

“What is this?”

“Try it on.”

The commander threw a pair of black tracksuits at me.

All black.

It had a tiger pattern engraved on it.

It is difficult to recognize because it has dark stripes on a black background.

When I take off my worn-out training pants and put on new ones, I feel strangely warm and powerful.

This isn’t an ordinary item, is it?

“It’s a silent defense.”

“Huh? A silent guard? Isn’t that a military uniform?”

“I extracted only the magic circuit and made a new tracksuit.”

“This is too much.”

“What’s too much? I’m the type of person who, when I push, I push hard. That one set of clothes isn’t worth a penny compared to what I gave you.”

“but…….”

“But I don’t need any of that, my only condition is one.”

The commander raised his index finger.

A straight finger was pointing to the sky.

“Constellation Sutra. And the best in the world. Hmm, I guess they call him the best on Earth these days? While I’m alive, get to level 9. Then, you’ll get the value of your internal energy, ability value, and clothing value.”

The legion commander dies within a few years.

Since I’ve even learned my inner strength, I’ll probably die faster.

At least 3 years.

As soon as possible, within a year.

My shoulders feel heavy all over again.

But, seeing the commander smiling like a mischievous child, I can’t say I won’t do it.

I swore with all my heart and soul.

“I will definitely reach level 9 and live up to your expectations, Commander.”

“Yes. That’s right. That’s what you have to do.”

The excitement only lasted a moment.

After three weeks, I came home and started rubbing my lower abdomen and sweatpants for a bit.

A news flash blared from the turned-on TV.

[Breaking news. A massive explosion of unknown cause has occurred at Shinwha Hospital in Songpa-gu. Hundreds have been killed or injured, and at least several hundred more are believed to be trapped in the collapsed hospital building… … .]

Hospital terrorism.

The last of the zombie apocalypse precursors.

The countdown to Episode 2 begins.
