I Got the Academy Morale Rune - I Got the Academy Morale Rune chapter 27
EP.27 Lizard Lair (4)
Seoul Holder Academy.
In the professor’s office of Tak Won-ho, a professor at the company’s division.
There was an unexpected guest who had been busy with lectures and operations and had not had time to visit.
“Almost a month?”
Tak Won-ho asked as he poured his own coffee into a mug.
Kim Myung-hyun, who was sitting in one seat, smiled.
“This is the first time since the company-wide faculty meeting at the beginning of the semester… It must have been two months.”
“The respect is still there. When the hell are you planning to talk to me?”
“sorry. It’s so easy to say respect.”
He does not speak to anyone other than his own daughter.
He was well known as a soft and flexible professor, but in this respect, Kim Myung-hyun kept the rules more like a sword than Tak Won-ho.
Tak Won-ho clicked his tongue and placed the coffee on the table.
“Drink. It took me a while to improve my skills.”
“The hospitality of guests is generous. Coffee brewed by you… I will drink.”
Smoke and dark colors blooming as if it had just fallen.
An espresso that shows the traces of a lot of care.
Tak Won-ho’s tough and hard personality.
It was a roast that felt like the complete opposite.
Kim Myung-hyun, who carefully drank the coffee, frowned.
“Professor Tak’s coffee is still bitter.”
“It is characteristic of the Liberica variety. The aroma is small, but the bitter taste is strong. Isn’t it time you get used to it?”
“It still seems unfamiliar to me.”
Tak Won-ho drank his coffee slowly.
“When I drink coffee, I try not to follow the aroma, but to feel the coffee itself. Roasting only for good aromas limits the types of coffee that can be accepted.”
After drinking the bitter coffee at once, Tak Won-ho woke up.
“It’s the same with swordsmanship. If I wield the sword only after the scent of swordsmanship, I will eventually lose the true form of the sword I was looking for. It’s like Hwang Seong-yeon, a holder who ate himself with a magic sword.”
“… indeed. I learned a lot today.”
“Learned. You must have your own swordsmanship philosophy.”
Tak Won-ho smiled lightly and continued.
“How is Do Jae-hyun these days?”
Do Jae-hyun.
A freshman holder belonging to the assassin family…
These days, it was the main concern of the two warrior-related professors.
He has the most talent in swordsmanship among the students he has recently taught, and he has the passion to achieve that much.
He had the ability to recognize five if he taught one, and he had the ability to apply what he had learned into training.
Despite his name as a multi-holder with the [Sword] rune, he was a holder who was more serious about swordsmanship than any freshman in the warrior class.
If I had to pick a talent similar to that, Tae-jun Lee, who was the head of the warrior class, and Jin-woo Park, who was in the intermediate class.
However, Tae-Jun Lee did not have as much enthusiasm as Jae-Hyeon Do, and Jin-Woo Park seemed more interested in the sword he made.
Kim Myung-hyun answered with a small smile.
“It’s perfect. It makes me feel very fortunate to be teaching such a student as an exclusive disciple.”
“I didn’t even think that you would be an exclusive disciple.”
“Isn’t Professor Tak the only student he’s been receiving for a long time?”
“I trusted your eyes. It actually proved that I wasn’t wrong.”
Do Jae-hyeon was not lacking in becoming an exclusive disciple of the two professors at the same time.
He caught the complicated tricks of [Wave Swordsmanship] and [Wave Swordsmanship] at once and made them his own, and then attempted to harmonize the two swordsmanships by using the registered runes.
Naturally, the two professors teaching him couldn’t be less excited.
“Did you teach the ultimate skill? I know that he has accomplished quite a bit in the flowing sword technique.”
ultimate skill.
The most powerful skill that a rune can derive.
Because its power is so overwhelming…
A skill that is also called the ‘special move’ of the holders.
In general, it was known as a skill that can only be obtained by mastering the rune level, but there were cases where it was learned in advance depending on special cases and situations.
Kim Myung-hyun’s eyes widened at the sudden word.
“Ultimate skill? haha. Professor Tak, you’re good at joking. Although Do Jae-hyun holder is a great talent, he is not at the stage where he can learn the ultimate skill.”
“is it? Hmm… ”
Tak Won-ho looked out the window of the professor’s room for a moment.
A disciple who is attacking the underground dungeon by now.
Do Jae-hyun’s face came to mind clearly.
He even put a meaningful smile on his lips.
“Somehow, this time, I think your eyes may be wrong.”
* * *
[You have entered the boss room.]
[The destructive energy of Grizzly Drake is hovering. The holder’s speed and strength decrease.]
“Grizzly Drake… ?”
As soon as you enter the boss room, your body becomes very heavy.
It was a bodily reaction that signaled a significant decrease in strength and speed.
And the information window of the strange monster.
Grizzly Drake.
A huge drake covered with a gray mane…
He was lying comfortably in the middle of the boss room.
“If it’s Drake… Isn’t that an A-class monster?”
Kim Chae-eun asked with a trembling voice.
Class A monster.
A monster that can only be hunted by forming a standard party of 5 B-class holders in general.
Even that is the story of dealing with a general A-class monster, and the number can vary according to the monster’s disposition and surrounding environment.
Grizzly Drake.
The boss of this dungeon and a special monster with the modifier ‘Grizzly’ in front of the monster’s name.
I can’t even imagine how strong it will be compared to a normal monster.
Even with 10 B-class holders, they could not catch it.
‘But our party… ‘
Even less, we are a low-class party.
One B-class holder and one C-class holder.
And the three holders who are close to C-class.
Considering the academy, it is a power that can be seen as a major party in the upper class, but it is one of the ordinary parties that are common everywhere in the holder’s world.
A confrontation between such a party and an A-class monster.
Without looking at it, the results were obvious.
“hey… hey.”
Park Jin-woo called me with a trembling voice.
My voice trembled for nothing at the nervous face of the guy.
“why… why.”
“Gee, are you really going to fight? Do you think we’ll all be behind after sticking with him?”
Grizzly Drake, who is still lying still with a calm momentum.
If you open your eyes
It looked like it was going to crush us at any moment.
I slowly stare at him…
I smiled and looked back at the party members.
“Is not it? It looks like we’re still having a hard time catching up. Hurry up before he wakes up and go back… ”
– Grrr… .
And like a lie.
As soon as I decided to return after giving up on the attack…
Grizzly Drake opened his eyes.
f*ck, really… .
“ha… Park Jin-Woo. Let’s go to the open formation.”
“Damn it. It’s a lucky day.”
Park Jin-woo, who spit out abusive language, started to widen the distance with me.
open large.
This is different from the one-time formation used when catching a toxin iguana, Park Jin-woo and I are dispersed as tanks and are in charge of different monsters.
A large format mainly used for hunting lizardmen and sizzling salamanders.
‘Now I have to attract aggro.’
Only one monster.
It’s the first monster I’ve ever seen, so I can’t confirm the stats, but considering the general grade of Drake, which is Grade A, and the fact that it’s a boss… Probably Park Jin-woo and my abilities will never be able to stand it.
We had to disperse the attack by dragging the aggro in the state spread out as much as possible.
– Whoops… !!
while preparing for battle.
Was it because it was moving too loudly?
Grizzly Drake, who had quietly opened his eyes, screamed like a roar.
And at that explosive cry.
All party members stopped moving.
“… … !”
I was well aware of this condition.
‘crazy. There’s even a fear effect?’
Fear of a status abnormality that temporarily disables the body.
Grizzly Drake seems to have a related rune that links cry and fear.
“what. Why is everything stopping? Aren’t you fighting?”
Of course, there were party members who were completely free from the influence of fear.
Park Jin-Woo.
Another Epic Rune he possessed, [Myunggyeongjisu], allowed him to ignore this kind of status abnormality and not lose his composure unconditionally.
… A real doggie.
That’s what I wanted to have.
– Whoops… !! ugh!!
Grizzly Drake began to move at a furious speed.
The first target, fortunately, was Park Jin-woo, who was not feared.
He raised his sword and barely blocked his charge.
“crazy… !! What strength… ”
At the same time, all the fear was dispelled.
I quickly grabbed my sword and ran towards the guy who attacked Park Jin-woo.
After just a few seconds, Park Jin-woo could have died.
“Haap… !!”
At a speed accelerated by [Agile movement] and [Sprint].
Insert the skill [Strike] with the trick of [Wave Swordsman].
Originally, [Strike] is a skill specialized for slashing under the influence of [Running Swordsman].
However, the [Strike] that I put in this time was a movement that cuts three times at the same time and then goes into the final stab.
– Whoops… !!
But as expected.
There wasn’t a single scratch.
Maybe his durability is high?
Or is the [Lizard’s Scale] rune level high?
The attack with all my soul.
Grizzly Drake didn’t do any damage.
‘it’s okay.’
as originally planned.
This is just an attack to attract aggro.
It would have been better if it had dealt damage, but it didn’t matter much if it didn’t.
Grizzly Drake changed his target from Jinwoo Park to me.
– Whoops… !!
“Suck… !!”
About 3 seconds or so?
I poured everything I could to block his attack.
From blocking with a sword from the front…
Flowing the attack with [Running Sword Technique].
Finally, until you receive the attack as it is by using [Get Hard].
I did everything I could as a temporary tank.
This is the limit.
Maybe Park Jin-woo is not in a good shape to help me.
“Do Jaehyun, step back!!”
And as always.
Ga-eun Moon’s signal to save us went off.
I pour out all my remaining strength…
He ran away as far as possible from the Grizzly Drake.
Kang, Kaga-!!
Dealers were bombarded.
Kim Chae-eun’s ice magic, Kang Joo-yeon’s fire magic, and Moon Ga-eun’s support shooting.
One by one, intense attacks were poured out to hunt only one individual.
In terms of the performance of a single skill, they were all powerful skills that could be regarded as B-class holder skills.
Closer to the Minister.
Park Jin-woo, who looked at it blankly, said quietly.
“… Did you do it?”
oh
It’s crazy to say that.
But, as Park Jin-woo said, I also felt like I was really spoiled.
All sorts of magic and fire were pouring out and there was smoke, but Grizzly Drake was nowhere to be seen.
There was a possibility that he died and disappeared without a trace.
to confirm that.
Ga-eun Moon in the back looked into the smoke with concentration.
And then, with wide eyes, he said to me.
“Do Jae-hyun, in… !!”
“… … !!”
There was a grizzly Drake in the smoke.
Read at noblemtl.net
Just like when I first blocked a blow with my whole body.
Still without any scratches on the scales.
As if you didn’t take any damage…
He stood tall in the middle of the boss room.
“… Does this make sense?”
The party members were engulfed in silence.
An A-class monster you’ve never seen before.
Especially the boss monster.
I never thought it would be such an overwhelming wall.
I threw out every attack I could.
You can’t do any damage… .
And as if mocking us.
when entering the dungeon.
The information window when entering the boss room appeared again.
[The eerie energy in the dungeon gathers and surrounds Grizzly Drake. An unknown energy and overwhelming durability protect him.]
[Grizzly Drake is immune.]
Don’t be really upset… .
