Taming Master

* * *

The battle between King Wang and Ian was spectacular and close enough to make his eyes curl.

Sharqran also saw Ian's battle as very exciting.

‘The king of Pluto... …. It means the value of that name is NPC. ’

Ian or the king are so powerful that no matter which one of them wins, it doesn't seem strange at all.

And from Shakran's point of view, it didn't matter who won, just watching the battle at ease.

Of course, it did not mean that I was prowling.

We were putting all the skills, attack patterns, and combat styles of the monarch into our heads as much as possible.

Sharkran recalls a conversation with Ian just yesterday.

- Kid, how do you plan on keeping your promise now?

We need to call the king or something, clear a path to the commandment.

- Are you sure this Pluto guy can clear a path to the Commandment System?

- That's for sure. because of the knowledge that comes out of Kaka's head.

- Hmm, I see.

- But there's one thing I'm worried about.

- What's that?

- This necklace of the king. This is a consumable item.

- ……?

- You can summon the King with the Necklace only three times. If we don't open a path to the commandment system in there, it's going to be a very difficult situation.

- Hmm…… Are you afraid that the prince will simply open the way to the throne?

- Yes, of course, if you can open a path to the Order in three chances, it won't be a problem, but if you fail all three times, you won't be able to fulfill your promise.

- I don't think so, because we haven't had any content yet, we can't be sure of our success.

- So what?

- Hmm?

- I have a proposition for you.

- Talk to me, kid.

- I'll give you one of these three chances.

-Okay?

- Of course, if I open the way to the Commandments from the beginning, it will still be a contract fulfillment, but if it fails, the second trial will be handed over to Titan.

- That's a good deal.

- Instead, let's settle the debt between us.

- Yeah, I'll do that.

Three chances for the Necklace of the King.

Ian and Shakran decided to share the opportunity with Titan and Lotus.

What's your last chance?

It was a predetermined situation for Ian and Shakran to talk again when both failed.

"Hehe, it might be better for me if the boy fails. ’

Watching the battle between Pluto and Ian, Shakran became increasingly confident.

Although he was definitely strong, he felt confident that he could win.

And that confidence had enough grounds.

So far, while watching the battle, he analyzed all of the skills used by King Mukhan and devised his own method of sabotage.

‘So kid, if it's hard, you can give up early. ’

Shakran grins and twitches his necklace.

- Necklace of the King.

Classification: General Goods

Grade: Myth

Necklace of the Fifth King of the Order, King Mukhan.

A mythical necklace said to contain the power of a powerful dead.

If you have this necklace, you can summon King Mukhan at a tariff, and if you pass his test, he will give you a powerful gift.

* Max Dark Magic Power is increased by 25 percent when you have the Necklace of the King.

* Casting speed of all dark magic is 15 percent faster when you have the Necklace of the King.

* If you use the Necklace of the King three times, you will lose its power. (If the necklace is used all three times, it will disintegrate back into three pieces and scatter to somewhere in the human world.)

- Currently available (2/3)

- Cooldown Time (359: 15: 27)

The remaining number of times to use the Necklace of the King is now twice.

If Ian fails here, then Shark will be his turn.

‘Hehe, I hope you get a chance. ’

It didn't matter if there was a full or reuse waiting time.

We had a lot of work to do anyway, and we needed to be more prepared to deal with the monarch during that summer.

If Ian beats him and opens the way to the Namgyeong system, it's a good thing that he can get new content any sooner. If Ian loses and has a chance to return to himself, it will be better because of the extra income and prestige that comes from winning the battle with him.

Shakran, who was thinking like this, became more focused and began watching the battle.

And it's been more than 10 minutes?

Goooooo-!

Suddenly, the strength of the monarch who was fighting Ian subliminally changed.

“Hey, you're good! Then bear with me once and for all! ”

Around Mukhan, a violent whirlpool of darkness begins to swirl.

- The unique power of King Mukhan. Command's Roar is triggered.

- "Stiffness" status.

- Movement speed is temporarily reduced by 10 percent.

-All combat abilities are temporarily reduced by 5 percent.

-All combat abilities of King Mukhan are increased by 15 percent.

-All Darkness Attribute skills have +20% Attack.

(Approximately)

- All summons have combat power reduced by 50 percent.

I wondered if the dark whirl that was springing around the Muqans was spreading in all directions, but in the end, it had all infiltrated his dark armor.

And with just a glimpse, an enormous buff and debuff of gasp began to unfold through the system message.

Especially the last line that comes to mind... ….

‘Damn. This is like a summoner's sniper debuff, right? Forty percent of all combat abilities? This is ridiculous...! ’

Ian, the summoner, was so critical a debuff.

At the very least, Ian is less hit because his individual combat skills are better than the scattered warriors. If he were a normal summoner, he would have blamed himself as soon as he checked this debuff.

Ian checks Debuff's readings correctly, swallowing a dry needle and fixing the swordsman.

‘Phew, somehow. I said it was easier than I expected. ’

Ian's eyes turn briefly over Mucan's head.

And the life gauge that was floating there was, like, half the distance away.

‘If I had kept going like this, I could have won easily.... ’

Of course, Ian himself hasn't shown everything yet.

There was a unique ability that was saved in case of a crisis, and the skills and buffs of Selamus that were used came back in time for reuse.

In particular, Kaka's skill set was being preserved until the end.

‘What do we do? Do we have to battle here? Or……. ’

Slowly approaching Ian with a threatening twist of the moon.

The only way to hold out against him is to pull out the remaining pieces one by one.

‘But it's too early. From now on, if I play the power helmet.... I'm sure all my buffs will be gone before the MUCAN's life force runs out. ’

It's overwhelming.

The quiet battlefield echoes only the sound of the mucan's footsteps.

Ian squeezes Bloody Levangie's swordsman and stares at the mucan.

‘If I fail here, will Chakran succeed? ’

If Shakran succeeds in capturing the prince, that is fortunate.

Anyway, the way to the commandment system, I can open it.

Of course, the prestige and rewards you will get for defeating Pluto will be unfortunate, but they are not something that should mean a great deal.

‘Ugh, I've decided to leave a number of necklaces as a gift to Hun. ’

One second, one second.

Ian's brain begins to spin more ferociously over time.

But that's when it happened.

“ ……! ”

There was one thing that struck Ian through his head like lightning.

‘Wait. now that you mention it, there's a crazy easy way to do this. ’

It came to my mind that I had not even considered how I could defeat the king, so that I could think of a devastating and easy way so far.

Ian pressed down on his dry mouth and began to stare at the king like before.

* * *

"What's wrong with that kid? Is he for real? ’

The roar of the commander, which was the unique power of the Mucan, did not only affect Ian.

The extent of the debuff affects almost all users across the map.

Because of this, the effect of all the debuffs on Ian was looking the same in Shakran's eyes.

And it was an enormous debuff that Shakran thought was unanswered.

That's why I have to wonder about the smile on Ian's mouth.

‘It would be better if I was there. ’

One of Shakran's mouths dries up.

This will increase your chances of developing into the best scenario you can think of.

‘This kid is more likely to fail. I know it won't be easy for me, but at least I'll be better off than him. ’

The debuff that cuts off the summoner's combat abilities, the most critical part, had no significant impact on Shakran.

"Did you give up on that kid? ’

While Shakran was thinking about things, the smile on Ian's mouth was wiped away again.

Then again, the solemn expression of politeness filled my face.

Blame- blame-!

With a cheerful footstep, Ian's new brother protrudes forward.

Then, around Ian, the black smoke began to spread around the floating Kaká, precisely next to Ian.

The Shakran, who confirmed it, mutters in a small voice.

“Don't dream.... You're gambling, kid. ”

But in Shakran's view, what Ian is showing now is something like a budding light bulb.

Just before sunset, the sky lit up for a while.

At this rate, it was virtually impossible for Ian to defeat the king, and it seemed like the last step before he died.

And after a while.

“Well done, mortal. That's enough. I'm sending you to the afterlife. ”

His voice echoes, and his tongue falls on Ian's head.

Boom, boom, boom!

And that was the end of this battle.
