Episode 306
How much time has passed?
“… … .”
The swordsman looked at Suho with a blank expression.
What the hell is that guy doing?
We’ve seen quite a few challengers here over the years.
However, most of them died inside the front barrier, and even among those who made it this far, not a single one was able to get past this point.
There were many who were defeated by his own strength, but in the end, he could not avoid death when his stamina was exhausted by the hit-and-run tactics.
That’s why I couldn’t understand it even more.
That guy in front of me definitely knows how to conquer this place.
And it had such great strength that it could cut oneself down with a single stroke. If one were to be stabbed twice in succession, one would die in no time.
But even with that power, the bastard didn’t chase after him.
Instead, he cut down the people who came near him.
It’s almost like chasing away mosquitoes that are disturbing your sleep.
At first, I thought he was trying to make me let my guard down.
But that wasn’t the case.
The guy’s goal wasn’t himself.
Surprisingly, the guy’s purpose was to create a barrier that prevented him from getting past this place.
Crunch! Crunch!
Crunch! Crunch!
Crunch! Crunch!
It was like a machine.
Whether he looked or not, the guy was cutting through the barrier.
But it didn’t seem like a simple repetition.
That would be the case, since if he was swinging his sword like a machine, there would be a repeating beat, but the timing of his sword swings was different for each person.
It wasn’t even like he just kept swinging his sword.
“Ah, this isn’t the feeling.”
Sometimes he would put down his sword, scratch his head, and stare at the barrier for a long time.
So it’s really absurd.
Because although countless challengers have visited this place over the years, not a single one has tried to cut the barrier itself.
‘The inner boundary I belong to was created by the Great Evil Spirit. How could a mere human destroy such a place?’
It was true.
The barriers above are not created by the Great Evil Spirit, the boss monster here, but by the stage bosses themselves.
However, the inner realm he was in was created directly by the great evil spirit, as the next level was the realm of the great evil spirit.
That’s why I couldn’t just keep watching.
Because if this were to break through, it would be the great evil spirit’s turn.
So I kept on attacking.
but.
Crunch!
Now, if you get close enough, the blades will fly.
Avoidance was impossible.
I tried many times to avoid it, but the blade of the bastard’s sword, as if it were magnetic, cut me in two as if it were a lie.
“See… … .”
The sword-wielding demon, who barely managed to escape, crawls to recover.
And I was thinking of trying again.
*
How much more time has passed?
The sword-wielding demon, who had been stabbed once more, was pushed back appropriately and his body was pulled back.
Now, I didn’t even run far away.
I recovered my body while keeping a safe distance from the guy so he wouldn’t attack me.
And then he pounced again.
In that sense, now is the time to recover.
It wasn’t like I was sleeping while recovering.
Close your eyes and focus on recovery as if you were having a morning meal.
That’s why my ears were always open.
Crunch! Crunch!
Crunch! Crunch!
Crunch! Crunch!
Repetition of the same sound.
The black sword cannot break through the barrier and sparks fly.
I decided not to question the guy’s actions any longer.
Instead, now I just thought about taking that guy down in reverse.
That was when.
Crunch! Crunch!
The sword-wielding demon, who had been concentrating on recovery, opens his eyes slightly.
What was it just now?
Did I hear that wrong?
It definitely sounded strangely different from what I had been hearing all along.

No, I don’t think so.
What’s different?
That is an inner barrier created by the Great Evil Spirit.
It’s not something that can be cut just by swinging it around recklessly.
With that thought in mind, I closed my eyes again and concentrated.
And a little later.
Crunch! Crunch!
Another noise.
But at that sound, the sword-wielding demon couldn’t help but open its eyes without realizing it.
I didn’t mishear.
It was certain.
The sound has changed.
Can that really be true?
however.
Crunch! Crunch!
“… … !!”
It was certain.
The sound has changed.
The surprised swordsman hurried towards the guy.
Of course, the distance was not narrowed.
The guy seemed to know that, because even though he had narrowed the distance between them, he didn’t even glance in his direction.
Instead, he took aim once again to break the barrier.
Gulp-
A nervous swordsman demon.
The saliva flowing out is so thick I can’t even swallow it.
And Suho swung his sword again.
Crunch!
A swung sword.
Next.
Fit!
“… … !!”
A much shorter sound.
At the same time, changes occurred in the boundary.
Suho may not know, but he could clearly see it in his own eyes as the stage boss.
A small blemish on the great plan created by the Great Evil Spirit.
At that moment, Suho muttered with a bitter laugh.
“Ah, now I’m getting the hang of it.”
Are you getting the feel of it?
what?
After a while, Suho swung his sword once more.
Crunch!
A sword swung cleanly.
and.
Parsak!
The barrier created by the Great Evil Spirit was finally engraved with such a distinct vividness that anyone could clearly see the difference.
At the same time, a bright smile appeared on Suho’s lips.
“Yes, this is it. This is the feeling.”
Suho, who had been smiling, swung his sword again.
Crunch!
That moment.
Choaaaah!!
A strong cutting sound.
At the same time, the entire battlefield burst like a soap bubble and disappeared.
“… … !”
The eyes of the sword-wielding demon grew wide as if they were going to tear at the sight.
And Suho’s eyes also grew moderately large.
[Your understanding of swordsmanship is greater than anyone else’s.]
[ The system has decided to fully acknowledge your efforts, recognizing your outstanding swordsmanship skills. ]
[ Understanding of the sword is activated. ]
[ Congratulations! You have mastered the loop cut (B) . ]
A few system notifications.
Suho’s eyes sparkled when he saw it.
‘at las!’
Suho cheers quietly.
Ring-cutting was a sword technique that allowed one to cut things that could not be cut with a sword, such as magic or skills.
So it was also the final stage of the guardian sword technique.
And finally, I got my hands on that technology again.
‘Cut the ring before reaching level 200.’
This was an absolutely incredible speed.
That’s because in his previous life, when Suho learned how to cut rings, he was a 3-star player.
As expected, the first time is difficult, but the second time is easy.
That was when.
“Sieeeeeeee!!”
As soon as the great battlefield split, the sword-wielding demon felt a sense of urgency and rushed at Suho.
Suho, who had read the presence of the sword-wielding demon, turned his head to look at the guy.
“Yeah, you were still there.”
I could have just ignored it and gone.
But the guy urged the order.
Then you can’t ignore it.
It was the moment when the swordsman demon pointed eight swords at Suho.
Srrrr-
A slow-moving guardian sword.
It glowed white.
Holy Enchantment has been activated.
and.
Crunch!
One sword cuts both ways.
The sword that had been moving slowly suddenly started moving quickly.
It left a long, black, pure white trail.
This time, the sword-wielding demon was cut in half.
It wasn’t a fatal blow.
This time too, it ended in a near-death state.
The swordsman demon thought so until his body started to move.
but.
“… … !”
The sword-wielding demon’s eyes widened.
The body that should have moved clearly did not move.
Half of the severed body disappeared into thin air, and the remaining half suddenly became heavy as if an iron weight had been hung on it.
Suho smiled faintly as he looked at the guy who couldn’t move like an overturned turtle.
“Why? Your body doesn’t move the way you want it to?”
“Sieeeeee!!”
“Of course. I just cut off all of your permanent skills.”
“… … ?!”
At Suho’s words, the sword-wielding demon’s eyes grew wide as if they were going to pop out.
Are you using skills that are always active?
What does that mean?
I couldn’t understand the sword-wielding demon at all.
It can’t be helped.
The guy is a monster set at the gate, not a player. And monsters are like NPCs that don’t know the concept of skills.
That’s why it looked clear to Suho’s eyes.
[Ring cutting is activated.]
[ The Great Grudge’s Sword Wielding Demon’s Soul Treasure has been destroyed. ]
[The soul recovery of the evil spirit of Daegwonhan’s sword has been destroyed.]
[The curse of the eight arms of the evil spirit of Daegwonhan’s sword has been destroyed.]
Notifications that three of the guy’s persistent skills were destroyed.
Suho raised his sword again.
[Holy Enchantment is activated.]
A divine radiance is formed on the blade.
The sword-wielding guardian spoke warmly.
“Still, I consider it an honor. You’ve helped me cut the ring.”
Crunch!
[ You have defeated the evil spirit of Daegwonhan’s sword. ]
A sword-wielding demon that disappears like a candle going out with a shrill scream.
Suho habitually brushed away the blade and walked towards the great battlefield he had cut down himself.
And finally I could see.
[You have entered the boss room.]
A brief reminder.
Finally, we reached the last stage.
At the same time, the landscape of the son-in-law began to change.
Ssaaa …
In the changed landscape, all kinds of black trees appeared in a row.
They swayed their bodies ceaselessly like possessed dolls in the strong wind, and the ghostly sounds characteristic of evil spirits echoed here and there, adding to the eerie atmosphere.
Moreover, the ghost piers were not just for creating atmosphere, they were real ghost piers.
[ You have heard Ghost Fear . ]
[Hemorrhage is activated.]
[ Fear is not applied due to the dragon spirit effect of Dragon Blood . ]
[ You have heard Ghost Fear . ]
[Hemorrhage is activated.]
[ Fear is not applied due to the dragon spirit effect of Dragon Blood . ]
… …
Messages that keep coming up.
Suho turned off the related notifications.
That was when.
[ A boss monster appears . ]
Notification of appearance of boss monster.
At the same time, the largest boss monster among all the ghost monsters seen so far made its presence known before Soo-ho’s eyes.
– Master of Aksan Lv.201
It wasn’t just about being big.
The level is also high.
A whopping level 201.
It was the first 2-star monster I saw in a long time since the gatekeeper of Volcano Island.
The owner of Aksan looked down at Suho and said.
– You are the one who dared to invade my territory.
A voice that rings loudly.
All I did was just talk.
Yet the effect was significant.
[ You heard a ghost howling . ]
[Hemorrhage is activated.]
[ Fear is not applied due to the dragon spirit effect of Dragon Blood . ]
Indeed a 2 star monster.
Its grandeur is extraordinary.
Of course, this did not apply to Suho.
Because Suho had Dragon Blood, which was an immunity device against the peer effect.
That’s why Suho wasn’t nervous at all.
No, I didn’t even think the guy would be stronger than the gatekeeper of the volcanic island in the first place.
The monster in front of you is at best a normal monster, and the gatekeeper of the volcanic island is a monster belonging to the Hidden Gate.
Soon, the master of the evil mountain lifted up his six huge arms.
“I’ll make you regret coming here.”
A declaration of war that spews forth ghost howls.
The guy’s six fists extend towards Suho at the same time.
