The Player Hides His Past

Chapter 280: Starting from Zero (4)

In addition to the consistent confidence.

I even had the weight of the Commander-in-Chief position.

Thanks to that, I spoke arrogantly.

Lets not get ahead of ourselves. Know my place.

I had skipped a lot of middle steps along the way.

The experience points I gained through hunting high-level demons using [Natural Enemy Relationship] was also incredible. So from now on. I needed to accumulate experience points that matched the delusional position.

Therefore.

There was no need to beat around the bush.

I had to refrain from ending it with magic.

Keep this in mind, I was not a mage.

Its sad in many ways.

The grass looked greener on the other side.

Until now, I had neglected collecting information about other classes.

Even just listening to it gave me a serious stomach ache.

But, what was the weight of the Commander-in-Chief?

I had to be able to identify the strengths and weaknesses of my members and make use of their abilities in the right place. To do that, I needed to be diligent. I would also need to have knowledge about other players classes.

Anyway, the problem is that I am trying to take on everything by myself.

As a result, I opened Pandoras box.

More than just being a low-class character, the demon hunter was a class forgotten even in players memories. The job skills of blessed classes that I didnt want to know!

[Innate magic affinity (Master): Mana consumption efficiency increases by 100%.]

[Magic affinity specialization Flame (30%): Fire magic consumption efficiency increases by 130%.]

[Acquired magic talent (Master): All magic skill proficiency increases by an additional 20%.]

Thats a list of common mage skills, can you believe it?

Even when I think about it again, its so unfair!

If it was a skill window for a hidden class like Jessie, it wouldnt have felt so unfair.

I couldnt believe it, so I felt like questioning it in detail.

I even wanted to express my grievances to Akshan.

The matter has passed. Lets just keep quiet.

Of course, given the personality of those guys, they wouldnt even pretend to hear it. 

If you suddenly asked me why I was lamenting my situation.

The reason was simple.

Even if I force myself to bear with it, I have nothing to say

Ultimately, this meant that a demon hunter had no choice but to follow the path of a demon hunter.

I formed a circle and became a transcendent.

But focusing on just one thing also had its limits.

Of course, mine isnt magic, its oddity

In the first place, oddity was not limited to magic.

The more two completely different concepts were applied, the more the oddity shone.

In this case, I was fortunate.

I felt like my growing method was not wrong.

[Name: Grandfel Claudie Arpheus Romeo]

[Title: The Last Adventurer, Noble, Transcendent, Dark Dragon]

[Class: Demon hunter]

[Level: 681]

[Statl]

Strength: 166 / Agility: 165 / Manar: 585 / Luck: 12 / Aesthetic: Upper / Tenacity: 5

[Point: 0]

Anyone who saw it would think these stats belonged to some messed-up brat.

I would look like an irregular character who had grown my strength, agility, and mana haphazardly. However, I had the means and methods to utilize these sleazy stats.

All I needed was experience to put it into practice.

In this case, I dont waste opportunities.

The moment I gained enough experience.

Finally, the total number of stats far exceeded my level.

I would be able to use it properly.

So the choice must have been meaningless.

The answer was already fixed from the beginning.

You choose discipline. Youre smarter than you look.

Squeak?

Perhaps because its size was so big, I could clearly see the rat making a confused expression. But as I said just before. The answer had been fixed, so I hoped it cooperated with me in gaining experience points.

[Champion Challenger Giant Rat: Lv.820]

Befitting of a named monster, its name and appearance were different.

The most unique thing about it was probably the equipment it was wearing.

The helmet on its head shook for a moment.

Squeak!

It rushed towards me.

I made a quick manifestation.

Education regarding your standing must come first before discipline.

If you asked me how I could skip the exploration and the interference process.

As I said, I was so used to this manifestation that I could create an architectural school out of it.

Thump

As if I was standing on the Crystal Hall podium.

I looked down at the rat from the soaring ground.

And then.

Tap tap

I stepped into the air.

Of course, it was not really empty space. This was also a manifestation that imitated the stairs of the Mage Tower. As soon as I took my step, the rising foothold supported my steps.

Bzz

At that moment, the ethereal iron on my waist resonated.

Anyway, just who do you take after that you want to appear anywhere?

But be patient, ethereal iron.

If you come forward, then there would be no point in choosing the option of discipline.

Even though it didnt necessarily change form, the ethereal iron was a [legend] grade weapon. Even without Swordpath of Pride, it could cause enormous damage just by swinging it.

What they need is a whip.

I recited and stretched out my hand into the air.

Indeed.

This was also a manifestation that imitated the stairs of the Mage Tower.

Crack

At the place that I reached out, the rock rose up.

As I extended my hand a little further, a handle came out from the rock.

This was the result of mana just for the sake of dying by style and living by style.

The players who witnessed the scene murmured.

A-A sword came out of the rock!

Could it be the Commanders new weapon?!

Oh, my God. A weapon with an introduction scene!!

It was just a weapon that came out of a rock.

When you put it that way, the mana consumption sounded wasteful right now. So much mana was being manifested for this act carried out solely for the sake of style and formality!

Explore minerals buried in the ground.

Summon minerals into the air.

Transform its shape.

Fire and freeze magic were applied simultaneously in an instant, increasing the intensity.

After an unnecessary process.

That was how I got to hold the sword in my hand.

The mana consumed?

Although it was enormous.

I would generously let it be because I had the [Blessing of the First World Tree].

Because just the other effort is enough.

Among them, the key was to manifest fire and ice magic at the same time.

This would not have been possible if the attribute affinity had not been increased with the elixir taken when forming the circle.

Its something that was made possible through a lot of hard work.

How could you mistake my struggles for a simple item?

I was so upset.

But as always, I couldnt express it.

I had no choice but to bravely fight the battle.

Clench

No other person was as stubborn as this.

The moment I swallow my regret and raise my sword.

The message appeared.

[Tenacity is converted into strength.]

[Tenacity is converted into agility.]

Strength, agility, mana.

Lastly.

Even tenacity.

Is this what it feels like?

I must not forget this sense of operating everything as if it were flowing. No, I had to develop it further. I declared it was discipline, but somehow I felt like I was the one learning more.

But the shamelessness hadnt gone anywhere.

Get to your feet, little wild beast.

I declared coldly.

My teaching will be absolutely strict.

Zero Mountain.

The headquarters of Great Alliance.

Nam Cheolmin looked at the monitor that was switched in real-time.

The number of angles from the players point of view on numerous screens was three times more than usual. Thanks to this, the number of analysts deployed was bound to be busier than usual.

One of the new analysts smiled.

Three at the same time. For attacking the cave, at that. Its not even a shabby recommended level, it has to be level 800 at least. To be honest, I want to get some footage and distribute it as a press release.

The Great Alliance of Gaon, Inazuma, and Berserker.

The initial momentum of the Great Alliance was enough to easily topple the fortresses built up by Shining and Union. However, they never knew that Union would strike first before the Great Alliance could.

If we just show them this, the antis will quiet down for a while.

Antis? Were you bothered about that?

Of course, it bothered me! The numbers are quite large.

Nam Cheolmin tilted his head.

Even if you call them antis

It must all be the work Union.

Nam Cheolmin had seen Unions dirty tricks countless times since the days when Gaon was classified as a rookie. It was obvious if you checked. Thanks to this, Nam Cheolmin said without making a big deal out of it.

Well, I doubt things will quiet down just because of that. And more importantly, it is not a strategy thats possible because were so great, is it? Everything is thanks to the Commander giving us his time.

Ah Thats also true. Still, it might carry some meaning, dont you think? Our Great Alliance has such a close relationship with Chief Commander Lee Hoyeol that we attacked the caves of the Zero Mountain together.

Wow, thats a shameless statement.

Gasp. Ill just shut up.

Before hearing a word from the Commander-in-Chief.

Shouldnt they thoroughly train new employees in etiquette first?

The moment Nam Cheolmin made up his mind.

The full-scale attack situation began to be delivered.

The first person to take action was Nam Taemin.

The formation is favorable to us!

You got lucky, Taemin.

It was not a cave where special rules applied.

It was not much different from the dungeons they conquered countless times back when Arcana was just a game.

The attack pace is not fast due to the level gap, but the mob patterns are simple. And since they are attracting aggro so well, I dont think they will need any support for the time being!

Nam Cheolmin nodded.

I agree.

The true value of his brother, Nam Taemin, was revealed in raids.

He moved like an animal that had lost its senses.

Any enemy had no choice but to pay attention to his movement.

As long as Taemins physical strength supports it.

He didnt need special support.

It was the same for Leoni.

No, in the first place

They dont need support unless its an extreme situation.

Berserker, blood mage, bow dancer, etc.

Leonies party was mostly made up of berserker guild members.

It was because the guild had a heavy inclination that the more cornered they got, the stronger they became.

Nam Cheolmin pushed up his glasses.

Dont take your eyes off them and look closely.

Yes. Ill keep that in mind.

Taemin or Leonie.

Given the personalities of these two people, it was unlikely that they would ask for support first.

It was up to the analysts to judge the situation.

The moment Nam Cheolmin tried to shake off a considerable weight and loosened his shoulder.

Thats not normal.

He heard a serious voice from Hisagi. Indeed, since it was a cave that had the highest recommended level, he expected that unique rules would be applied.

Did you say it was a sanctuary?

Yes, to be exact, it is the Small Champions Sanctuary.

The atmosphere is definitely different from the other side.

The pressure was transmitted to the screen.

The scale.

Even the level of monsters pouring in.

The analyst who was watching the war situation hesitated.

I didnt expect the 50-level gap to be this big.

Nam Cheolmin shook his head.

It may be past time to simply judge everything by level.

What do you mean?

It is difficult to determine the difficulty level only by the recommended level. Well, even for monsters at the same level, the difficulty level of attack greatly varies.

It was not because of his excellent analytical skills that he thought of this.

The recommended level and stat are just numbers to me.

It was just a fact that he realized while pondering over Hoyeols words.

Of course, Even if the [Small Champions Sanctuary Under the Mountains] was a cave filled with more troublesome elements than expected, he wasnt concerned. Because the person on Hisagis side was Hoyeol.

Nam Cheolmin nodded gently.

Commanders presence is greater.

On the other hand, it was so great that it was worrying.

Even if Hoyeol accompanied them.

He was worried whether the others would be able to follow in Hoyeols footsteps.

Instead of narrowing the gap, it may widen even further.

However, Nam Cheolmin was overlooking one thing.

It was clear from what Hoyeol said.

Theres nothing to worry about because Im here.

That was what he said.

C-Chief analyst!

An urgent voice looked for him.

Nam Cheolmin raised his head and looked at the monitor.

A bright light penetrated his eyes.

To be precise, in the monitor screen.

?!

There was a huge something that radiated a brilliant light.

It was a screen taken from the players point of view.

Therefore, they couldnt pin down its identity.

However, there was a voice transmitted along with it.

I-Its the Goddess!!

Wait, the Goddess, they said.

No way.

Could they be talking about the Goddess of the Goddess Church?

Creak

Nam Cheolmin immediately sat in front of the monitor and put on his headset.

Then he asked the players.

The Goddess in the sanctuary.

Maybe this was more important information than the attack.

Can you tell me in more detail?

Analyst Nam?

Did you say it was a goddess?

Ah yes! No matter how I see it, I cant help but think its her. There is a ridiculous buff being activated in the area called the Blessing of the First World Tree!

The Blessing of the First World Treer?

He hadnt heard the effect yet.

But just hearing the name of the World Tree, it sounded like a great buff.

That alone was a startling development.

But it didnt end there.

L-Look over there!!

The players buzzed again.

The camera view switched over.

Soon, Hoyeols figure came up on the monitor.

Tap tap.

Tap tap.

Tap tap.

Hoyeol walked the stairs embroidered in the air.

It was amazing, but it wasnt the first time he witnessed it.

Yes, the reason Nam Cheolmin and other analysts were shocked.

S-Sword from stone?

Cack!

It was because Hoyeol pulled a sword out of a rock.

They were already very knowledgeable analysts.

So, even if they stretched their imagination, it must be specific and plausible.

Nam Cheolmin opened his mouth, wondering if it made sense.

E-E-Excalibur!!

It was a word that would have made Hoyeol freaked out if he heard it.
