Swordmaster Healer

Chapter 20 Isolation (3)

While I was in the dark, my head didn't reach out to Seong-jun. I was heading somewhere else. It was too late when Seong-jun headed in the direction that he felt.

“Ah!”

Blood splattered with a single scream. Uncloaked reveals the presence of Eunju and the Spirit Monarch. The sword of the spirit lord has already penetrated Silver Lord's abdomen.

It was hard for Silver Master to sense the spirit monarch's movements that were hard to catch even Sung Joon. It was a mistake to think he would go after the one who revealed himself first.

I never thought I'd be the first to go after a potential threat!

“Seo, Seong-jun.... ”

Eun-suh vomits red blood out of her mouth in pain. Seeing that, Seong-jun did not hesitate to raise the tuning to the extreme.

- 25% tune! Limited but welcome sword available!

You don't have to tell me, I know. I remembered how to use the Welcome Sword.

“Haha!”

Together, you perform a high-speed maneuver to narrow your distance to the spirit lord. The threatened spiritual monarch raises his sword of fire and opens his distance to Silver Juice.

“Welcome sword!”

However, Seong-jun quickly chased after me and opened the welcome sword. As soon as you swing the sword, the six Welcome Swords aim for the six critical points simultaneously.

The Lord of Spirits tried to defend himself in a hurry, but he couldn't stop all six welcome swords. He stopped three but stabbed the other three if they were mortal.

“It's over!”

Seong-jun picked up the sword while proclaiming the end. The raised sword aims for the monarch's glare. The moment you think it's over, the Spirit Monarch raises his left hand.

At that moment, a cold storm filled with a sharp piece of ice hit Seongjun.

“Grrrgh!"

I cast it with a zero-less spear that lacked enough power, but it was enough to make Seong-jun retreat. You can't pierce the priestly robe made of special steel, but the ice chips are heavily dug into the front of the bridge.

Although he was injured, while Seong-jun was retreating, the neat spirit monarch made a move towards Seong-jun.

- Bress!

Rishvald notices and warns as the spirit lord makes his swords appear odd. A flame spills from the mouth of the spirit lord.

“Hehe!”

Seong-jun, who was focusing on melee warfare, was able to avoid his body thanks to Lischevalt's warning. A wave of flames swept through the place where Seong-jun was.

When the Spirit Monarch raised his hand towards Seongjun who retreated, five ice spears were created in the air. As he shakes his hand, the ice spears aim at Seong-jun.

Seong-jun lifted his magic while avoiding the ice spears.

If we go any further beyond the tune, we could lose consciousness!

Rishwald warns. Already he has raised his magical power to 25% tune, which has surpassed its limits.

“We're all gonna die anyway. ”

Seong-jun spoke decisively and raised his magical strength. Seeing that, Lischevald bites his lips in a frustrated and angry way because it was not helpful.

- Degrees, 29% tune! It's really dangerous anymore!

At Rishbalt's words, Seong-jun stopped drawing up his magical power.

As the combat experience awakens together, the combat strength rises greatly.

“Haha!”

Seong-jun stretched out his high-speed maneuver with a short clash and narrowed the streets. The spiritual monarch was embarrassed at the speed of Seong-jun, who was too fast to catch up with his eyes.

He breathed a breeze to ward off Seong-jun. However, there was no Seong-jun where the breath of hot flames was directed.

“Welcome sword!”

Seong-jun, who had just moved to the rear of the Spirit Monarch, opened his welcome sword.

The original welcome sword is a higher skill that summons dozens of blades, and the welcome sword summons hundreds and thousands of blades. However, now that the tuning is low, it was a limited use, so summoning six blades was the limit.

But that alone was a deadly enough attack.

- Grrrgh!

The Lord of Spirits did not expect any attack from the rear. Six welcome swords wrecked the Lord of Spirits.

The spirit monarch stumbles, allowing a fatal blow.

Seong-jun recovered the sword. Then I got back into position. Seeing that, Lischevald opened his mouth urgently.

No more welcome swords!

The Welcome Sword consumes a lot of magical power, so it's an overwhelming move. If you use a welcome sword in succession now with low tuning, a fatal counterattack could occur.

“It doesn't matter.”

However, Seong-jun's will has not changed. His gaze pierces the spirit lord sharply. The sword of fire was the moment towards Seong-jun.

Seong-jun opened his life.

- ……!

The condensed life overwhelmed the spiritual monarch, a heavily S-grade magic object. During that time, Seong-jun took a quick step forward with his sword fixed.

“Welcome sword!”

The fancy blades strike the Spirit Monarch. I resisted, but my left arm and right leg were cut off. The spirit lord collapses powerlessly.

“It's over!”

Seong-jun shouted as he retrieved the sword. After the sharp edge of the blade pierced the glabella, the Spirit Monarch exclaimed once, leaving a ‘nucleus’ and a 'stallion’, and disappeared into thin air.

“Absorption.”

Seong-jun absorbed the magic from the spirit lord's core before the pain came. He recovers his strength and magic, but he is still exhausted.

The battle with the Spirit Monarch consumed too much.

“Grrrgh!"

As you absorb your magic, you are struck by a terrifying pain that loosens your tension. I was so distracted.

It was the most severe pain I have ever felt, surpassing the tune.

- Joo-gun!

Eventually, Seong-jun couldn't stand it. The vision is darkening. He crawls toward Eunju with a pale face.

“Seong-jun…… Mr.…. ”

Eun-suh's voice was powerless. Seong-jun reached for her left hand. Thanks to the absorption of the magical power from the ‘nucleus’ of the Spirit Monarch a moment ago, there was only enough magic left to use the 'heel’.

“Heel...! ”

I tried hard to cast the healing while spitting the starter fish. Silver Coin's wounds began to heal with a white glow.

Seeing that, Seong-jun couldn't overcome the pain and closed his eyes without strength.

* * *

It was the hospital where I opened my eyes. White ceilings, the smell of disinfectant, and white patient clothes greeted Seong-jun.

“Is this a hospital……? ”

The hospital was familiar to him because his father was suffering from blood cancer. But it was his first time lying on the bed.

Are you awake?

Lischevald, who confirmed that Seong-jun regained consciousness, was in a commotion. Seong-jun got up and looked around before answering Lischeval's words.

It was a single room.

After confirming that there was no one else, Seong-jun opened her mouth with a calm expression.

“Lischevald, give me a status report. ”

Seong-jun asked.

I couldn't figure out what happened after I lost consciousness. But I thought Lischevald might know something.

- About five hours after the Lord blacked out, the D'ike Hunters came to rescue him.

“I thought you ran straight for five hours without getting interrupted by magic... It was like a regular dungeon. ”

Seong-jun said.

A regular dungeon is acknowledged as having cleared the dungeon when it catches the boss, and even a small number of hidden items are summoned.

“I've been unconscious for at least five hours, right? ”

- He was unconscious for exactly 25 hours.

In Lischevald's reply, Seong-jun nodded his head with a serious expression.

“If you cross any line, you lose consciousness. ”

Through a painful experience, I learned that there is no limit to overcoming the tune, but if you overcome it, there is a very high chance of unconsciousness.

Seong-jun decided to name the technology "Ultimate Transcension."

‘We have to be careful from now on. ’

He was the boss's room this time and was a difficult opponent to win, but he was willing to refrain from using extreme transcendence in general.

It was too great a risk that there would be so much pain that I would lose my mind.

- And your current tune is 23%.

Lischevald reported the information you were curious about.

- Someone's coming.

Seong-jun stopped talking with Lischevald. Soon after, someone knocks.

“Come in.”

The door opens and a single woman carefully enters the room. She slowly raised her head and was Eun Joo Choi, the team leader of the normal attack team, Deke.

“Seong-jun.... ”

“Have a seat.”

Eun-suh nodded shyly at Seong-jun's suggestion and sat on the chair next to the bed.

“How are you feeling? ”

The moment Eun-joo opened his mouth, Seong-jun asked me first. She nods with a smile of snow.

“If it weren't for Seong-jun, he would have died of excessive bleeding. ”

Deke's hunters were arriving in five hours. If Seong-jun hadn't healed his wound with his heel, he would have lost his life because of the bleeding.

“Are you okay, Seong-jun? Suddenly, I was very worried because I was unconscious. ”

She was still vividly remembering Seong-jun who reached out and used the 'heel’ while she was falling down and losing her mind.

It was enough to stimulate Eun-suh's emotions, who was still in her 20s.

“I'm fine. ”

“The doctor said it looked like Mana Shock. You need to get some rest. ”

Eun Joo asked with a worried look. Mana shock was caused by temporary excessive magical force consumption.

She gave him a cold drink with an attractive snowy smile. The actions that Seong-jun showed in the dungeon made her feel good.

The feeling was not deep yet, but it could not be denied that it was a good start.

“Mana Shock makes me thirsty. Drink this.”

“Thank you.”

Seong-jun drank the drink given by Eun-suh. When I drank cold drink, I felt like I was clearing my mind.

“Cool.”

“Thank goodness. Hehe. ”

Eun-su smiles shyly. Seeing her like that, Seong-jun opened his mouth.

“What happened to the dungeon raid? ”

“I was admitted to being cleared. There are two deaths.”

“I'm sorry.”

Seong-jun expressed his condolences. Eun Joo, who remembered the death of her team members, smiled bitterly.

Hunter's death in the dungeon was a common occurrence, and she's been through enough to get used to it.

“But thanks to Seong-jun, there was very little damage. Everyone's thankful. ”

“I see.”

“Oh... And about the settlement issue. I asked the captain because you might be curious. ”

In the words of Eun-suh, Seong-jun's eyes sparkled.

“I think you'll explain later, but I'll tell you in advance. ”

Seong-jun nodded and Eun-joo opened his mouth again.

“A class S dungeon said there were a lot of high concentration of horseshoes appearing. In addition, the national prize pool was settled to 6.1 billion won in Seongjun's share. ”

Combined with the amount you previously sold, the property is now over KRW 10 billion. Seong-jun felt dizzy.

I never thought I would have more than 10 billion.

“The doctor said you need to rest for at least two days. And……. ”

Knock, knock.

It was the moment she was about to say something. With a knock, the door opens and a woman walks in wearing a suit, tied behind her brown hair.

“You had a customer? ”

She was Yoon Seol Ah.
