Colosseum -1-
Colosseum
The finished elixir was lava-colored.
The vivid orange color seen on TV.
The texture is extremely thick and contains its own heat, making it boil over.
I put my hand into the crystal bowl with reverence.
[Be careful, Superman.]
[Isn’t this already your second dose? They say it’s not good to drink too much······]
I remember the worried face of Director Choi.
It’s okay.
You ran all the way to Cheorwon to catch the mountain king to get rid of the side effects.
There are also variations in trait selection.
[Bankruptcy Law][Einherjar Law]
[Drug dependence][Drug addiction]
[Magic Stabilization][Purification]
There are two ways to induce growth.
Only two maximize the nectar effect.
The remaining two focused on controlling side effects.
I think this will be enough.
“Hoooo.”
A tense moment.
I picked up the crystal bowl.
The fierce heat seeps into my palms.
Ignore the ripening of your palms.
I gulped down the elixir.
It was different from when I used to only drink nectar.
A volcanic breath runs down my throat.
The throat, esophagus, and stomach, which ripen and regenerate at the same time.
It started.
Lava is flowing through me.
It’s like throwing myself into the sun.
The hot, so hot, so hot, heat spread as if it were going to burn me.
But it blooms within it.
Refreshing.
Clear and refreshing power.
A lump of magical power follows the burning sensation and takes over everything.
‘ah······’
I let out a gasp inwardly.
What would it be like to wake up on top of a mountain after being trapped in a very narrow coffin?
An overwhelming sense of liberation and elation was awakening me.
The body was evolving.
It is as if the soul itself is being elevated.
The feeling of leaving this cramped world and swimming into heaven.
Wood crunch.
A small metamorphosis is taking place.
The magic circuit expands within it.
The magical power circuit that reached the tips of my hands and feet as I reached level 3.
It gets tougher. It gets thicker.
In addition, the circuits are connected to each other.
Previously, they stretched out in a straight line towards the ends of the limbs, but now they have created multiple detours among themselves.
Naturally, it is more efficient and boasts more powerful power.
Here’s one more.
There was a power rising from the hot lower abdomen.
The force struck my head once and then came down and settled in my heart.
And then he falls asleep.
As if waiting to be called.
[Courage] trait.
A gift from the mountain king.
Similar to toughness, it is a trait that is around tier 1.5.
What’s unique about it is that it doesn’t apply normally, but only during combat.
Instead, it gives significant bonuses to strength and stamina.
Numerically, it is higher than Kang-Geon.
I sat still and clenched my fists.
I was brimming with power.
My whole body felt light.
This sense of omnipotence that makes you feel like you can accomplish anything.
Confidence that is rising and surging.
My body was aching.

And there are no side effects!
“Good!”
You did a good job making the elixir and adding magic stabilization and purification.
Even if you turn the magic power once, there is nothing to be caught.
If you focus anywhere in your body, magical power will arrive at that moment.
Due to the influence of the Einherjar training method, my magical power is as wild as a storm and as strong as steel.
Yet it doesn’t put any strain on the body.
“ha ha ha.”
I let out a small laugh.
“Hahahaha!”
Soon, the laughter grew louder and reverberated throughout the training room.
Level 4, level 4!
If you are treated like a true superhuman starting from level 3, then level 4 is even better.
No matter what organization I entered, I was treated as a mid-level employee.
The missions for which you receive a ransom are also on a different level.
If we compare it to modern weapons, it would be like a walking attack helicopter.
“Hahaha! Hahahaha!”
I laughed for a while and then stopped.
I look at the magic bathtub on one side and snicker.
In this case, there was no need for Magic Heaven.
Instead of magic stabilization and purification, should I have put in magic absorption and magic heart?
‘no.’
If there were any side effects, I would have had some bloody stool.
‘This is right.’
Moreover, it is level 4.
The limits of a born N-class character.
To reach level 5, you need to break through the limit, but you can’t afford to be held back by side effects.
‘How much more do we need for level 5?’
Even if you break through the limit, you won’t be able to do it just by drinking nectar.
Similar to the special elixir, you will need additional elixirs of different types.
‘I need to get some nectar.’
Because what I have now won’t be enough.
I had a cup of coffee with those thoughts in mind.
Cheap coffee mix.
He sipped mixed coffee that didn’t match the fancy teacup and let out a single word.
“muscular strength.”
The third trait I acquired after coming to this world.
And it’s also the base trait of some higher trait I’m trying to combine.
“Strength, strength, courage, intimidation, huge body.”
A characteristic that comes from combining these six.
The power of a giant.
It is a top-tier trait for warriors.
Only warriors can obtain and use it.
The acquisition conditions are also extremely difficult.
You must either complete a difficult special quest or eat the Giant King’s Heart from the Giant King Raid.
Still, I often gave this trait to Kim Jeon-sa.
The combination difficulty is relatively easy.
It’s a blessing that the 3-tier common trait, Strength, is included as a basic trait.
I brought the protective clothing that was hanging on one side of the training room.
And inside the secret vault.
Along with the diamonds I’ve collected so far from the Shinwon Market junk dealer.
“Should I change my armor?”
Somehow I ended up getting the protective suit trait first.
No, no.
The Giant’s strength and sub-traits stack with each other.
The large build trait is also a good trait, so you can just wear it and go.
Besides, the protective suit itself has very good defensive capabilities.
I’ll have to use this until I get an SSR-grade protective suit.
I slowly put on my protective suit.
Put your legs into your pants and put your body into your top.
Slow as a centipede.
A thrill of happiness ran through me every time the protective suit brushed my skin.
My heart is pounding like a bat.
The magic resistance alone, which was a combination of six attribute resistances, was enormous.
Then, what kind of results will the power of the giant, the wannabe of all warrior-type superhumans, which is evaluated better than magic resistance, show?
My heart was excited like the night before a trip.
I put on my protective suit, sat in front of a full-length mirror, and held a diamond, and I reached perfect climax.
“Whew, whoosh.”
I took a deep breath and calmed down.
My heart was pounding so hard that I couldn’t calm down, so I even borrowed the power of the [Deep Breathing] [Magic Stability] [Meditation] traits.
And use it.
The diamond was embedded into the top of the protective suit.
As soon as it touches the top, the diamond evaporates like melting snow.
The five-colored light licked and caressed my protective suit top.
A force that naturally seeps into my body.
There were no immediately noticeable changes.
So I took off both the top and bottom of my protective suit.
Me in only my underwear.
Still no change.
In other words, the [Giant] characteristic that was applied to the protective suit top has been completely transplanted.
“now······”
Last of the day.
I calmly changed the characteristics.
Basic characteristics that enhance strength [Strength]
[Super Strength] that instantly increases your strength
[Strong] ability that combines strength, toughness, and vitality
[Giant] that increases body size and muscle strength and stamina
[Courage] that supports the user during battle
Finally, [Intimidation], which causes enemies weaker than me to be inflicted with a fear effect.
Gulp, gulp.
My heart cried.
My whole body felt tingly.
Concentrate your mind.
It’s similar to magic resistance.
The magical circuits were breaking and reassembling, racing towards the heart.
In addition, the muscles of the entire body are torn.
The skeleton is dismantled.
The Giant’s Strength combination was much more dramatic than the Magic Resistance combination.
This is probably because it directly affects not only the magical circuit and the heart, but also the entire body and musculoskeletal system.
I gritted my teeth and endured the pain that was rising steadily.
Just before the soul escapes.
After a long time, the feature assembly was completed.
“Whoa!”
Phew.
Water vapor evaporates.
A cloud of smoke rises.
The sweat I shed reacted with the activated magic circuit and vaporized.
I got up from my seat.
Clear all traits, equip only the [Giant’s Strength] trait, and look into the full-length mirror.
Originally, Kim Jeon-sa had a slender physique.
But the Kim warrior in the mirror, I was completely different.
Perfect muscularity.
A body type reminiscent of a bodybuilder.
He was also tall. He was about 180 cm tall, but he must have grown to over 190 cm.
What if we equip more sub-traits here?
[Giant’s strength][Strength][Monstrous strength]
[Giant][Strong][Strong Hit]
The muscles swelled and bulged.
He also grew taller.
A giant that’s almost two meters tall.
His muscles have grown so much that he reminds me of a green mutant hero from a movie.
‘This is a total mutation.’
I was similar when I was equipped with mutant muscles, mutant body, and even mutations.
It’s much more human than it was then.
When in battle, it’s better to equip Bravery rather than Strike.
There was a separate reason why I chose Kangta now.
“Hueuheuup.”
I clenched my fist.
Stare into the empty space.
Take power with all your might!
Phew!
An overwhelming barrage of muscle.
The air shook mercilessly.
Even without using any magic power, the shockwave exploded and shattered the mirror.
But I looked at the broken mirror and laughed bitterly.
“Was it too much?”
My fist that was properly thrown.
Even though I swung it in the air, it still hurt sharply.
A small shock came up from my entire right arm.
Even though the Giant’s Strength itself has physical strength enhancement attached to it, it is still like that.
Would it be okay to use Bravery instead of Strike?
no.
A diamond is needed.
I guess I’ll have to use the Giant’s Power and Diamond Body as a set to avoid my body being destroyed by my attacks.
If I were to throw a punch now, my fist would probably get shattered first.
‘I have all the ingredients.’
The materials of the diamond body are a sheath, iron armor, a fortress, patience, determination, and self-denial.
You only need to bring the castle in your shield and the self-restraint in your protective clothing.
The problem is diamond.
The diamonds that I bought as soon as they came in from the Shinwon market were all used up while transplanting the large body.
Maybe because the grade is high, I used more diamonds than I thought.
[Have you received any items?]
I texted the junk dealer, but the response I got was disappointing.
[Additional stock will arrive next month. As you know, it is difficult to secure supplies.]
[All right.]
Where is the diamond mine that exploded?
While sighing, I noted that there was one more higher-level trait that was close to completion.
[Healing] Necklace.
Didn’t I get this from Priest Kim?
A superior trait that combines regeneration, revival, wound recovery, healing, vitality, and vigor.
immortality.
The combination of giant strength and immortality is also not a bad choice.
The best one is of course the trinity build, which is completed with the three top traits of Giant’s Power, Diamond Body, and Immortality.
‘I just need one or two diamonds.’
There is no way to check what % of proficiency you have, like in a game.
But since it’s only been a few days since he became strong, the healing process probably won’t last long.
Let’s not think hastily.
It’ll only be a few days, or at most a few weeks.
Until then, you can just patch it up with other characteristics.
[Giant’s Power][Bankruptcy Sword Technique][Einherjar Training Technique]
[matte][patience][energy]
Like this.
Here I put on my protective suit and the vampire gloves I had taken off.
Because the toughness trait was not enough to withstand the vampire curse.
[Or Superman.]
As I was contemplating an alternative, my smartphone vibrated again.
[Would you like to go diamond hunting with me?]
[You can mine diamonds? Can you mine diamonds?]
[Hehehe. Wasn’t the original name of the lair cleaner a purification worker? It’s just a way of saying that they clean. The same goes for Dia.]
A word that did not appear in the game.
I just blinked while looking at my smartphone.
Can you mine diamonds?
A diamond is something that a superhuman makes by reducing his own magical power.
Although it is said that it can cause level down, such cases are rare.
The acquisition of diamonds was done by changing character cards in the first place.
[Okay. Let’s go together.]
[Good idea! But there are some risks involved in mining diamonds. And cleaning the caves, right?]
[Yes.]
[Go first, and if you don’t like it, you can just go and look around. I will never force you to do anything dangerous.]
[What on earth are you talking about?]
[Umm······ It’s a place that shouldn’t be leaked. I don’t feel like telling you over the phone, so I’ll tell you in person.]
[great.]
I made the appointment with some reservations.
We met at Shinwon Market late at night.
Kim Chun-bok, a junk dealer, bowed to me exaggeratedly.
“Let’s go, Superman.”
“Do I have to cover my eyes too?”
“Hey, you’re good at joking. You and I are not strangers, so why would you have to go that far? But I would like you to be a little careful when you arrive. There are quite a few superhumans on the way. There are quite a few level 3, 4, and even 5.”
“Level 5? Where are you going?”
“You will know when you see it.”
The junk dealer kept his mouth shut.
It just adds speed to the cars heading west.
Ss …
It wasn’t far.
About 40 minutes away from Sillim-dong.
A city connected to Seoul.
However, administratively, they are clearly distinguished.
At this point, I also noticed it.
“Is this Bucheon?”
“Yes. It’s Bucheon.”
When you think of Bucheon in Seoul, there is one facility that comes to mind.
The largest fighting arena in the metropolitan area.
A place where superhumans fight for their lives.
In the game, this is where ranked matches take place.
It was the Colosseum.
