Episode 174
Point of entry.
The battle between Cylia and Chen could be encapsulated in those four letters.
Chen’s sword strikes were rapid, but Sylia parried his attacks as if watching them in slow motion.
Just when it seemed like the outcome was somewhat close, Chen took out another card.
Kang!
It was a change that even those without combat experience could understand.
The one-sided confrontation between the two hunters quickly turned into an equal structure.
This is because Sylia, who had been leisurely fighting with one hand, was now using both hands to block Chen’s attacks.
Wedge.
‘Again…? … !’
Cylia twisted her slender waist to avoid Chen’s sword that flew from her blind spot.
In fact, as someone who was dealing with ‘Hwankak’ for the first time, just being able to respond to this level was something that could be said to be a God-given talent.
Even Cheon Hae-seon of the world thought that his martial arts talent was superior to his own.
As if the name ‘super salary’ was not given for nothing, Sylia gradually adapted to the ‘return’.
‘A move like a rat…’ … .’
As can be seen from the weapon called ‘Catena’, Cylia was also a multi-talented person who could use telekinesis.
She finally figured out that ‘fantasy’ is a general fighting technique with telekinesis added.
Pakang!
With a loud impact sound, the distance between Chen and Cylia widened.
At first glance, it looked like she had taken a breather, but Cylia was still there.
It’s just that Chen couldn’t bear the shock and stepped back.
Here and there.
Chen gritted his teeth as his wrist hurt.
‘… … ‘He’s such a monster.’
Although she looked and acted like a queen, there was a monster living inside her.
The amount of ether is so vast that the end is unknown.
The amount of ether consumed by him, who combined sword dance with ‘flashback’, was quite high, but compared to Cylia, who constantly used catena, it was like nothing new.
So Chen intentionally waged a war of attrition, but had to admit that his choice was a misjudgment.
It was here that the ether bottomed out.
“Whoa.”
If the winner cannot be decided through a war of attrition, it would be better to decide by consensus.
Chen condensed his ether into one place and gathered it in his right hand.
Pajik.
“?”
Cylia’s eyes narrowed at the spark that came from somewhere.
And after confirming that the sound was coming from Chen’s sword, her eyes narrowed even further.
Fazizik.
The electric current flowing through Chen’s sword was now clearly visible to the naked eye.
From Chen’s treasured sword, which shined brilliantly in five colors, white lightning revealed its teeth.
Gurgling.
“Uh… … !”
A loud thunder noise that would make even high-level hunters flinch.
Just when I was wondering if this was a lightning strike in the dry sky, Chen’s new form moved like lightning.
I don’t know what to do.
A current made of ether and a chain made of ether collide in the air.
“Ugh… … .”
“Attager.”
The spark was enough to affect the hunters who were watching from afar.
Non-combat hunters had to feel a tingling sensation just from the shock wave that Chen and Sylia collided with.
‘That friend… … .’
‘It’s pretty good.’
‘Regardless of its power, it is very novel.’
Just like the Irregular team, a look of admiration appeared on the faces of the hunters who saw Chen’s ‘Thunderbolt Sword’ for the first time.
The worried look or pitiful look he had shown when he first said he was going to spar with Cylia was no longer visible at all.
Seeing the combination of Chen’s thunderbolt sword, which he had been honing his whole life, and Cylia’s ‘Catena’, was truly a treat for the eyes.
‘Are you saying that Cheon Hae-seon and Maria are not the only members of Irregular? … .’
‘A dagger uses a buff, right? It also raises you up to S rank.’
‘Looking at Chen, it looks like the rest of the hunters are all doing the same… … .’
‘Well, otherwise we wouldn’t have been able to pass through the stairs of hell with fewer people.’
Literally a small elite.
As Chen fought hard, the evaluation of ‘Irregular’ naturally increased in real time.
But no one here thought Chen would actually beat Cylia.
Because not even half of her abilities had been revealed yet.
Sylia silently accepted Chen’s techniques and did not attack first.
When she first saw the lightning strike and the lightning sword, her complexion changed for a moment, but it did not reach the point where it could harm her.
A catena made with the essence of ether as wide and deep as the sea.
And a natural fighting talent gifted from heaven.

The combination of these two was blocking even Chen’s thunderbolt sword.
Gurgling.
I don’t know what to do.
“Huh… … omg.”
Although he seemed to be swinging his sword silently, Chen’s breathing had already become rough.
On the other hand, Cylia was still in the same state as before.
The difference is that the ridicule and disregard that had been written on their faces disappeared without a trace.
Some might say that this alone was a great achievement, but Chen had no intention of being satisfied.
‘Is it now?’
After checking Chen’s breathing, Cylia brought her outstretched arms forward to the left and right.
Naturally, her catenas collided with each other, and the white chains came together like a twist and darted towards Chen.
“!”
The speed is on a completely different level from the Catenas I’ve dealt with so far.
Without even having time to use his thunderbolt sword, Chen hurriedly raised his sword in front of his chest.
Quagwagwagwang!!
A white flash flashes, accompanied by an ear-splitting sound.
The hunters closed their eyes for a moment and then let out an exclamation.
“Did you stop it?!”
It blocks ‘combined chain’, one of Cylia’s unique skills.
Although Chen’s body was pushed back about ten meters by the power of the technique, Chen still maintained his sword-holding stance.
“… … “It’s good to have pranium.”
Sylia took the chain away with a rough tone.
Grumble.
At the same time, a stream of blood flowed from Chen’s mouth.
Although he was able to block it with the ether inside his body and the power of the treasured sword, he was unable to avoid the overload.
‘excellent.’
Yingsen was truly impressed.
About Chen, who made Cylia use her main skill.
And about his device that withstood that skill.
‘It looks like it’s really solidly made.’
Everyone knew that pranium was hard.
However, unless the entire knife is made of pranium, the remaining parts must be made of common device materials.
Technology is needed to fill that gap, and Yingsen was truly impressed by the ‘skill’ of the person who made the treasured sword.
‘I don’t know who you are, but I’d like to meet you sometime?’
Is it because I am a scientist by nature?
Ingsen felt a stronger curiosity about the person who created the ‘Precious Sword’ than about the Maverick in front of him.
If you ask Chen, you might be able to find out who made it.
‘It’s also time to sort out the situation… … .’
With that in mind, Ingsen raised the ether in earnest.
The word sparring was meaningless as the two hunters were revealing their true skills.
An ordinary hunter would not dare to get involved in a sparring match between a ‘super level’ and an ‘S’ ranker.
But Ingsen was a man with enough power.
Gooooooooo.
Although the sum had already been divided quite a few times, Cylia’s catena was still filled with an evil aura.
No, somehow it seems to shine brighter than before.
She was using ether mercilessly, as if she was getting unlimited refills from somewhere.
On the other hand… …
“Whoa… … .”
Anyone could see that Chen looked as if he had never done anything before.
The pendulum was somewhat tilted to a certain degree.
Cylia sensed that the end of this match was imminent.
“Why don’t you surrender quickly?”
she asked, spreading her hands to the left and right.
“Otherwise, we would be really behind.”
“… … .”
Chen wordlessly thrust his sword forward.
The brilliantly shining pranium replaced his answer.
“I don’t know even if I die. “If you want to blame, blame your leader.”
Cylia, who spoke loudly on purpose so that Cheon Hae-seon could hear, used the combined chain once again.
썣썄죣죣 죣죣
At the same time, Chen also activated Thunderbolt Sword.
Gurgling.
The white chain and the lightning are about to clash head-on.
“Orbis.”
A blue energy rose from the ground along with someone’s voice.
Hehehe.
I’m sorry.
“?!”
The energies that were fiercely fighting against each other are caught up in the blue energy and begin to rotate.
An energy that looked too elaborate to be called ether was spinning around the energy of the two people.
‘What is that?’
Chen had a puzzled look on his face, while Sylia turned her head with a venomous look on her face.
“Yingsen! “What are you doing?”
Her harsh voice was directed at the bald-headed man wearing glasses.
Ingsen walked towards the center with an embarrassed laugh.
“Wouldn’t it be difficult if someone was injured before entering the spirit world? “At this rate, I think there will be deaths rather than injuries.”
“Can’t you put this away quickly?”
“If the two ethers collide now, this place will be completely destroyed. Are you going to pay for the repairs?”
Ingsen’s tone was extremely calm and extremely logical.
When the story related to ‘money’ came up, Cylia seemed to have come to her senses and did not add any more power.
Meanwhile, the blue ether called ‘Orbis’ was circulating two energies.
“… … “It’s spectacular.”
Cheon Hae-seon was truly amazed at the sight before his eyes.
Scientist and ‘super-salary’ Hunter Ingsen.
He was an expert in precisely processing ether, and as a result, he succeeded in implementing a ‘mechanical mechanism’ in ether.
Simply put, ether is used like a machine part.
The same goes for ‘Orbis’, which Ingsen implemented a while ago.
The blue ether moved like a machine rather than energy.
It would have been impossible for any equipment to withstand the energy of the two, but Ingsen’s ‘Orbis’ contained the energy of the two and spun it like a whirlwind.
Shuuu… … .
No matter how strong the energy is, it decays over time.
Both the catena that was cut off from Silia’s body and the thunderbolt sword activated from the tip of the treasured sword had run out of energy.
‘As expected, it’s amazing.’
‘Maybe she’s stronger than Cylia?’
‘You treat ether like you’re kneading clay… … .’
The hunters gathered at the scene looked at Yingsen and clicked their tongues.
In a different way from Cylia, he possessed abilities that were not human-like.
“We decided that it would be dangerous to proceed with the match any further. The building also had to be protected.”
“Well done. “I was wondering if I should still ask you a favor.”
The president nodded willingly at Ingsen’s words.
No matter how hard the building was made of, it was as obvious as fire that the auditorium would collapse unless at least pranium was embedded in the frame.
Everyone agreed with Yingsen’s response, but there was one person who was not satisfied.
“So, what are the results?”
A high-pitched, arrogant voice resonates loudly throughout the auditorium.
Perhaps because she had not been able to properly educate Chen, she still seemed uncomfortable.
“Anyone can see that I won, and the starting group belongs to Steel Shield?”
Neither the governor nor Ingsen could refute those words.
At first glance, it may seem reckless, but there were some reasonable aspects to it.
Anyone could understand that the situation was in her favor.
Most hunters, including Yingsen, could not refute her words and did not have the guts to do so.
Just one person.
Except for Cheon Hae-seon.
“It’s not?”
Cheon Hae-seon stood in front of Silia, smiling innocently.
