A text from Nam Taemin.
[The key to attacking the dungeon is to locate the depth of the dungeon.
The location of the depth of the dungeon is near Chelsea Bridge.
It is very likely AAU London branch.]
Is that so?
AAU seed to have noticed sothing.
Of course, I had also estimated the location of the depth of the dungeon through [Natural Enemy Relationship].
After the Cataclysm, the symbol Chelsea Bridge Road was changed to the AAU London branch.
The geography of London was unfamiliar.
If it werent for Schraigs guide, I might have had to turn on the map app and find my way. Of course, manifesting a portal would be burdenso, so I couldnt do that either.
I know theres sothing at those coordinates.
In other words, the portal could be a shortcut to the trap.
Moreover, wasnt the trap of this dungeon rupture related to rain?
I was already soaked from head to toe.
Even now, I felt uncomfortable.
No more forced showers.
By the way, even when I see it, I still cant believe it.
Schraigs voice was filled with emotion.
Judging from the expression on his face, he didnt seem to be just saying empty words.
I didnt know what he was looking at.
I also followed Schreigs gaze and looked around.
London, where the rain had stopped.
The streets were lined with Aquariu oak trees.
Ten minutes at most.
That was not enough ti for them to grow into a huge tree.
Indeed, it was the effect of the blessing of Haiel, who germinated the seeds of World Tree.
The roots were strong and the stems extended straight.
Branches stretched out abundantly above it.
Brilliant sprouts began to bloom at the ends of each branch.
No matter how I looked at it, it was too flashy.
[Pentagram of Pure Knowledge].
To my knowledge, the Aquariu oak tree had never looked like that.
I could guess the reason.
It was probably because of Haiels influence.
Damn it, it tasted bitter.
I am not in a position to say anything.
This feeling was like when seeing my magicwith [aesthetic] stat added!
Isnt there a saying that children are the mirror of their parents?
Im sorry, Haiel.
As I looked, Haiel opened her mouth as if she had been waiting.
Noble seems to have affected , too.
Yeah, it was all my influence.
Im sorry for bringing in bad change to you, Haiel.
But, wait a minute, [Noble]?
It was a word that I couldnt ignore.
[Noble] was a title I acquired on the Arcana Continent.
I opened the status window and checked the effect of [Noble] again.
[Noble: Noble one, the Arcana Continent rembers you.]
Indeed.
The exact opposite of the long and specific effect of [The Last Adventurer].
There was just one line.
Why did I not feel bad about it?
There seed to be sothing great about the one-line effect.
The Arcana Continent rembers .
I didnt know if it was because I was influenced by this pure integrity or sothing else.
The title ant that the system didnt turn a blind eye to my struggle against millions of demons. Besides, how many benefits had I gained through those struggles?
Starting with curing Marcelos curse of terminal illness.
[Evil Eyes Telescope].
Gaining so many experience points that the death penalty could be ignored.
So it was just the ambiguous effect of the title.
I could just leniently let it be.
Was the joy of winning even greater because I had no expectations?
Theres sothing about this.
Not only the words seed plausible, but [Noble] clearly had additional effects that were not specified. Sothing that couldnt be recognized even by Grandfels literary and martial arts talent.
Right. Youve had a hard ti, Haiel.
Contrary to the overwhelming feelings inside, those words were spoken calmly.
Sk
Haiel lowered her head with the corners of her mouth raised.
I am still far too lacking to receive that praise.
Of course, there was no ti to continue chatting comfortably.
We were gradually getting closer to the depth of the dungeon, AAUs UK branch.
Suddenly, Schraig urgently shouted.
Its the enemy. The number is approximately five!
Schraig, level 402.
Now, his level was similar to that of Nam Taemin and other top players. He was once one of the top three players along with Skal and Rox.
Crash
Proof of this was his deanor that stayed calm even in the face of the sudden appearance of enemies.
I was familiar with Schraigs class.
Schraig was one of the few players I knew before I awakened. Why did I know him? Simple. It was because he was really cool.
Swordsman class, fencer.
Indeed, he was the countrys gentleman.
Schraig pulled out his weapon and posed for battle.
His weapon, which was like a large needle, was a foil.
A rapier specialized for stabbing.
Zachary, can you hear ? Hows the situation? What about the citizens?
While focusing on combat, they also didnt forget the safety of fallen citizens.
Naturally, Grandfels pride couldnt help but feel satisfied about this.
Monsters havent appeared yet? Yeah, thats a relief. Then wed better line up and prepare from now on. It seems monsters are appearing from the depth of the dungeon.
Schraig grasped the situation and communicated it.
I stood side by side with him.
And I looked ahead.
There are precisely five of them.
If I had to describe their appearance, they were like a mannequin filled with water.
Five water n were coming towards us.
Once he finished understanding the situation.
Schraig told after ending the call.
According to the additional patch notes, their nas are Ghosts of the Gloomy City. Their level is said to be between 600 and 650. And this is just my hunch, but
Grit
Schraig gritted his teeth.
If theyre a ghost, theres a good chance that physical attacks wont work against them.
I agreed to so extent.
Apart from the na.
The was a reason why the saying cutting water with a knife existed.
Just looking at it, it seed physical attacks wouldnt work.
Shake
Schraigs hand, which was firmly holding the sword, was trembling.
It wasnt fear.
That was anger.
The monster who brought his hotown, London, to this state had appeared before his eyes.
Damn it.
He must be angry that he couldnt do anything with his sword.
I understood his feelings.
But while I could guess how he felt.
There was a reason why I said I only agreed to so extent.
I opened my mouth.
Can you guarantee it?
Yes?
Are you sure a physical attack wont work?
U-Um.
Schraig didnt seem to understand.
If it were like the old days, I wouldnt have said anything.
What kind of cringe thing am I going to say again?
I probably would have started lanting my situation inwardly.
But I realized sothing after I died and ca back to life.
In the end, I need the strength of the players.
It might be different if it was in Arcana.
But in the reality, I couldnt deal with millions of demons.
Ultimately, I needed the players cooperation.
And this pride was the basic foundation.
For players with outstanding skills to cooperate.
So look carefully, Schraig.
I raised my hand slowly.
I got into a combat position.
What I had in my hands was a black long umbrella.
!
I spoke to Schraig, who was shocked.
What you will do from now on is simple. Watch .
And then I used sword aura.
No, I focused my sword force on the long umbrella.
I continued calmly.
To be precise, watch my sword aura.
S-Sword aura?!
Sword aura.
A state that required high qualifications just to witness before handling it.
However, if a swordsman could handle sword aura, the swordsmans combat power increased exponentially.
I have witnessed strength above their actual level from sword users such as Harkon, Yesica, and Enoch.
Of course.
A sword with such a sword aura.
Even if I used an umbrella, not a sword.
It could damage the ghost.
Sword aura. I dont know what youre suddenly talking about, but! Its dangerous to be alone. Moreover, with an umbrella like that!
But Schraig couldnt have known that information.
It was only natural for him to feel astonished.
Thats why I told him to watch.
It will be easier to understand once you see it.
The five ghosts rushed in.
I aid my umbrella at them.
A silver aura wrapped around the umbrella.
Clang!
A decisive blow.
At the sa ti, the ghosts collapsed.
Schraigs face was filled with astonishnt.
What?
Unlike him, I wasnt surprised at all.
I didnt feel joy or sadness in defeating the monsters with an umbrella.
Defeat five 600-level monsters with a single blow.
Was it because the [Natural Enemy Relationship] was activated while my level was close to 500?
If not, was it because of the experience of fighting to the death among millions of demons on the Arcana Continent?
I didnt feel any tension with just these monsters alone.
Youve really grown up a lot, Lee Hoyeol.
It was not like I entered the dungeon rupture alone for no reason.
.
.
.
Player, Lee Hoyeol.
His level was estimated to be at least 900.
Schraig was well aware of his strength.
He had the common knowledge of Arcana.
In the past, he rose to 3rd place in the player rankings.
Schraig had experienced the hardships and emotions that other rankers were currently experiencing.
So he couldnt understand it even more.
Lee Hoyeol, what on earth was that guy?
His main attack thod was magic.
But it wouldnt be surprising if he used a sword.
The way he used a sword could be watched through mass dia.
But this was beyond the limit.
Umbrella.
Defeating five level 600 monsters with an umbrella!
Schraig clenched his fist.
Is this a difference in level?
a gap.
He didnt feel the gap only with Lee Hoyeol. For now, the only thing he could bring up was his past glory. He knew himself better than anyone else.
I must have reached my limit long ago.
To be precise, the limit of his class, fencer.
In reality, even if there was no such thing as a noble job.
It existed among classes of Arcana.
The one at the very top was the precious hidden classes.
Hidden class transferees included Skal and Jessie Heinness.
Their strength and potential were so hard to describe in words.
Below that were popular classes such as barbarian and healer.
Classes that supported performance as much as many players chose them.
If you were lucky enough to complete a class quest.
Your class beca comparable to the hidden class, or even changed to a hidden class.
And at the bottom, there was an unpopular class like him.
Schraig could have sworn.
Fencer was a trash class that only looked good on the outside.
If he could turn back ti, he wouldnt have chosen this class.
Basically, he was a prosecutor with a sword.
The attack power was bound to be based on the [strength] stat. Fencer, who had to target the enemys weaknesses, was required to have an extrely high [agility] stat.
It was a class that required both strength and agility.
Naturally, the higher the level, the lower the efficiency.
Its a power I cant even dream of.
Damn it.
Schraig looked at his foil.
In the end, the attack power was the obstacle.
There were many vulnerabilities in the attack thod that relied on stabbing.
What on earth is his class?
Chief Mage of the Mage Tower.
Infinitely Deep Darkness.
Evil dragon hunter.
He couldnt guess by the na.
Magic.
swordsmanship.
And an umbrella fight.
He couldnt even guess by watching.
But one thing was certain.
Schraig laughed bitterly.
I cant keep up.
In fact, he had long known his place since the Yusra Kingdom.
So he thought he wouldnt be disappointed anymore.
Schraig was upset.
In the end, I cant help with anything.
London.
His ho where he was born and raised.
The streets he was walking on until this morning were covered in rain and fog.
Families, colleagues, and citizens in London were in crisis.
He felt resentful that he couldnt do anything with his own hands and his ability.
I am incompetent.
The mont Schraig lowered his head.
Are you concentrating, Schraig?
He heard Hoyeols voice.
Schraig raised his head.
An attitude as consistent as his voice.
Hoyeol continued speaking, holding his umbrella as if it were a sword.
You must watch the sword aura.
Sword aura.
Since earlier, he had no idea what Hoyeol was talking about.
Schraig recalled Hoyeols words that had passed by.
What you will do from now on is simple. Watch .
To be precise, watch my sword aura.
Hoyeol was overestimating him.
It was clear that Hoyeol was completely mistaken about him.
Schraig said in an angry voice.
Sword aura. I am not sure if you know, but Im different from other swordsman class players! My class is the damn fencer, which is extrely weak and has clear limitations. I dont even know what sword aura is, but you keep expecting it from !
I know.
What?
What did he know?
Did he know that Schraigs class was fencer?
If not that, did he an he knew its limitations?
Hoyeol continued speaking before the question could be left behind.
But it doesnt matter.
?
Believe in yourself. Even if you dont have the courage to do so.
In an extrely serious voice.
Believe who believes in you.
.
.
.
I told you, I know.
Schraig, youre one of the few players I have known before I awakened. Also, what? Fencer is extrely weak and had clear limitations?
If you feel like this, Id like to give you a one-day experience as a demon hunter.
Its less noticeable now that Ive grown so much.
When I first awakened, just hunting gnolls that were much lower than my level made my legs shake.
I could guarantee, even if the fencer was an ambiguous class, it wouldnt be able to match the demon hunter.
Was there any other class in the world that invests stat points in [strength], [agility], [magic], and [luck] at the sa ti?
So I could say it with confidence.
Believe in who believes in you.
I guarantee you.
Ranking 3rd in Arcana is a position that you can never reach without talent.
So raise your head and look clearly, Schraig. You have to witness the sword aura and realize the reality.
If you want to protect sothing precious with those hands.
Even if it was to face the demons that would co in the future.
As soon as I spat it all out using Grandfels way of speaking.
Again, [Gosts of the City of Gloomy Rain] ca into view.
By the way, there were quite a lot of them this ti.
There were so many of them that my form would be useless. If I were alone, I would hold the umbrella and deal with them slowly, but there were fallen citizens here. Still, structure was a priority over education.
The mont I was about to raise my mana,
!
In an instant, a ssage appeared.
[Noble one. Your nobility leads to small changes.]
I lead small changes?
What change?
Before that, isnt calling Noble One a little too excessive?
While I was thinking.
I heard a voice.
Schraigs voice was trembling wildly.
P-Player Lee Hoyeol. The silver light shimring on that umbrella! Is that light perhaps the sword aura you were talking about? Wait a minute, before that, do you know what [Noble] is? I just got a ssage!
You witness the sword aura, Schraig.
By the way, thanks to him, I also realized.
Is this the hidden effect of the title, [Noble]?
