âHyeonu? What is going on?â
Reina rushed up to Hyeonu as the vengeful spirits started to take shape one by one. In order to wait for Hyeonu first, Reina logged in earlier than the agreed upon time. She saw that the surroundings were full of traces of fighting and realized that Hyeonu had already logged in. She immediately followed the trail of battle and arrived here.
âYou came early? As you can see, it is full of monsters. I think there are around 1,000.â
To be exact, it was 999. Yet considering the boss monster, Hyeonuâs words about there being 1,000 werenât wrong.
âArenât you too easygoing? Wonât you be tired if you have to kill 1,000?â
Reinaâs eyes narrowed. Hyeonu was strong, but killing 1,000 monsters was not easy. He shouldnât be joking around so leisurely.
âIf Reina kills a few, Tang-E kills a few, Gom-E kills a few, and I kill a few, we will be able to kill them quickly. Donât worry too much,â Hyeonu continued to speak positively. It seemed like the monsters in front of him were really nothing.
âBelieve in me. I have some strength when mole hunting.â
Then Hyeonu summoned the magic spirit.
âGom-E has come!â
Gom-E, the magic spirit, also appeared by flipping through the air in a splendid manner.
âBrother, have you been well?â
The moment Gom-E landed on the ground, he walked in front of Tang-E and bowed his head.
"Yes, how have you been?â
Tang-E naturally received Gom-Eâs greeting.
âYes, Iâve been well.â
The golden bear and purple bear started to have a conversation between themselves.
âUhâ¦â
It was so absurd that Reina was speechless. The atmosphere was so peaceful that it was hard to believe they were about to fight a dangerous battle.
âThese guys are helpful just by existing, so donât worry too much, Reina. They are cheerleaders.â
Hyeonuâs words werenât wrong. The effects of Dancing with a Bear and Magic Spirit Creation meant his stats had increased tremendously. So in a way, he was right.
âIs that so?â
However, Reina didnât know the details and nodded without understanding.
âTang-E, buff me. Then take care of anything that gets through to the back.â
Hyeonu took a step toward the vengeful spirits.
âI understand. Iâll take care of the rear. Believe in me, Master dude. Now I have my younger brother.â
Tang-E stroked Gom-Eâs head. It wasnât a very trustworthy appearance, but Hyeonu smiled and nodded.
âNo monsters will reach the rear anyway.â
Hyeonu was certain that there wouldnât be a single monster to reach Tang-E.
âI canât miss the opportunity to raise my skill proficiency.â
He had wasted so much time that he should gain at least this much. Hyeonu was going to fill it up with his level and skill proficiency.
âThere are quite a few skills that will increase their ranking if I use them a bit more.â
Many of his skills were about to rank up. In particular, the newly acquired Guardianâs Breath had already reached the E ranking.
âIâm glad the skill tree is structured efficiently.â
Hyeonu had a lot of skills for a melee class. It was just that most of them were continuous skills. Even they were evenly increased by using magic power-related skills or fighting. He didnât have to worry about growing his skills.
âI donât need any item skills.â
Hyeonu neatly pulled out the Mysterious Sky Sword hanging from his waist. A clear sound echoed through the grave. Hyeonu raised as much magic power as possible and gave it to the Mysterious Sky Sword. It was to the extent that he scratched the bottom of his reserves.
The Mysterious Sky Sword started to turn purple. The moment that the blade of the Mysterious Sky Sword was colored so dark that it couldnât be seen, Hyeonu kicked off from the ground and jumped high into the air. Hyeonuâs right hand holding the Mysterious Sky Sword moved so quickly that it couldnât be seen.
Hundreds of pure energies were created accordingly. It was Mysterious Sky Range. Hundreds of purple pure energies bombarded the vengeful spirits. The ground was turned upside down and shook. The bodies of the vengeful spirits were already disappearing.

Mysterious Sky Rangeâthe blow killed 178 vengeful spirits. Hyeonuâs attack didnât end there. It was just the beginning. Hyeonu held the handle of the Mysterious Sky Sword in reverse. Then he struck the air again. At this moment, a huge purple sword appeared in the air far from Hyeonu.
Summon a Giant Sword! It was the attack with the widest range among Hyeonuâs skills. The purple sword measuring over 200 meters was inserted into the ground. All the vengeful spirits in between disappeared without a trace.

At a glance, the number had decreased by more than half. It was with only two attacks. Reina saw it and was astonished. It was a ridiculous sight.
âIs this possible? Is he really a player like us?â
No matter how she tried to move on, she couldnât understand it. Did this make sense right now? Reina was confident that she could kill dozens at once. The problem was after that. She would have no magic power. She couldnât handle the aftermath of simply swinging the sword.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
âHow much is his magic power?â
Meanwhile, Hyeonu wasnât like that. He poured out magic power like magic power was constantly springing out. It was Reinaâs mistake because she didnât know the effect of the gauntlets worn by Hyeonu. Hyeonu continued his attacks as Reina was feeling alarmed. Magic power was replenished even if he used it like it was water. There was no need to hold back.
âThis time is Crescent Moon Cut.â
Hyeonu used each attack skill once like he was checking his skills. A giant crescent moon swept through the vengeful spirits. This caused nearly a hundred vengeful spirits to disappear. Since then, he used previously used skills like Mysterious Sky Range, Mysterious Sky Demonic Strength, and Crescent Moon Cut at the same time.
As a result, there were no more vengeful spirits in front of Hyeonu. All that remained was a short message.
[Liberated the captured vengeful spirit 999/999.]
It wasnât only after seeing the message that Hyeonu came down from the air and stood next to Reina.
âYou didnât support me. You are eating food again!â
Hyeonu squeezed the heads of the two bears who were eating vigorously. He didnât forget to put magic power around his hands when squeezing the bears.
âI didnât expect sincerity, but at the very least, you shouldâve acted out the sincerity.â
Hyeonu kept flicking his head, so Tang-E frowned and started to make excuses.
âNo, Iâm not like that. My younger brother said he wanted to eat.â
However, this didnât work against Hyeonu. Hyeonu held Tang-E in his arms and started to attack intensively.
âWhy are you blaming someone else? Who told you to do this?â
Tang-E struggled to escape from Hyeonuâs arms, but Hyeonu didnât give up easily.
âI asked for it. I asked Brother to give it to me.â
In the end, Gom-E couldnât stand it and took the blame. He said that he was the one who wanted to eat meat.
âReally? It isnât a lie? You really did it?â Hyeonu asked three times.
The purple magic power flowing from both eyes seemed to say that if the words were false, he wouldnât easily let Gom-E go.
âReally. I did it.â
Gom-E closed his eyes tightly and nodded. He couldnât watch his older brother being punished.
âReally? Then go and fight. You were playing around while I was fighting, so it is time for the two of you to fight.â
Hyeonu gestured with his chin toward the messed-up tomb. It was a completely different demonic creature from the previous vengeful spirits.
âHow about it? Is it possible? Tell me if youâre scared. Then I will go and fight. Instead, you will have to kneel down and hold my legs.â
Hyeonu put Tang-E down on the ground. Once out of Hyeonuâs arms, Tang-E breathed onto his paws and rubbed the top of his head with it.
âDamn Master dude. You are so stingy about me eating a bit of meat. Spit. I will go and fight. Fight dirty. Letâs go, little brother. Go with me.â
Tang-E tapped Gom-Eâs shoulder lightly. Every time Tang-E took a step, his appearance grew slightly.
1 meter.
2 meters.
3 meters.
His body continued to grow. Tang-E stopped when his body was around 7 meters long.
âIâm going as well.â
The magic spirit quickly followed after Tang-E. The magic spirit stepped foot on the ground and grew larger in an instant. The magic spirit increased his size until his body was similar to Tang-Eâs.
âIs this okay?â Reina quietly asked Hyeonu. It was because Hyeonuâs reaction was very excessive.
âWas I acting too mean?â
At Hyeonuâs question, Reina struggled for a moment before opening her mouth, âA little bit?â
Hyeonu sighed lightly and started to talk, âI feel like they still arenât that close. By doing this, they will start thinking unknowingly. Tang-E will think, âHe isnât my younger brother, but I really need to take care of him as a brother.â Gom-E will think reciprocally.â
Hyeonu set himself up as a common enemy. It was to help Tang-E and Gom-E develop a faster and deeper bond.
âBy the way, can the two of them kill it?â
Reina turned her head and looked at the place where Tang-E and Gom-E were fighting the boss monster with a worried expression.
âDonât worry about them. Neither of them are weak kids. Additionally, I can help if they are in danger.â
Hyeonu also turned his head to look at where Tang-E and Gom-E were fighting a fierce battle. The huge golden bear and purple bear were fighting hard against a giant slightly bigger than the two of them. The cooperation between the two bears was very good. To be precise, Gom-E perfectly adjusted to Tang-Eâs pace. He used Hyeonuâs movements, the Mysterious Sky Steps, and completely covered Tang-Eâs gaps.
Little by little, the two bears were about to win. Then the wrinkles on the giantâs forehead started to move.
âReina, close your eyes straight away!â Hyeonu shouted when he saw it.
âClose my eyes?â
âHurry.â
Reina was puzzled by Hyeonuâs sudden words, but she closed her eyes as told.
âTang-E, close your eyes and scream!!!!â Hyeonu shouted loudly as he flew toward the battle scene.
What he thought were wrinkles on the giantâs forehead started to show their original form. An eye appeared from the open wrinkles. An ominous purple eye was visible. The purple eye was fueled by great magic power and soon started to shine!
