Kilraden only had 2 percent of his health left, but his attack was extremely damaging. He took a big chunk out of her health. After hearing his shout, Sarang cast Thunderstorm behind her. She had lost 60 percent of her health in one hit, so she didn’t try to aim where her would Thunderstorm hit. The bolts crashed right next to Kilraden. Still, the bed of lightning swept through him, and there was nothing Kilraden could do to block it. [Sarang killed Kilraden.] Kilraden had evolved into a hero, but he still had to leave the battlefield for his evolution to bepleted. Junhyuk watched as he died. Sarang had invested in defensive equipment. If she hadn’t, she would’ve been dead by now. After bing a hero, Kilraden’s attack had increased, but Sarang had received 10 percent less damage than normal. She was seriously wounded, but she was still able to cast Thunderstorm. Junhyuk thought she deserved apliment. Had she turned around to aim the Thunderstorm, Kilraden would have killed her. Junhyuk shed at Nid, but the hero used his corkscrew rush power to fly toward Sarang. Nid’s rush could go through anyone blocking his path. Gongon tried, but Nid passed through him and attacked her. The rushed damaged everyone in his path. It was, essentially, an area-of-effect attack. Sarang died from it. [Nid killed Sarang.] Junhyuk clicked his tongue. He had gotten stronger, but he had been overconfident, and because of that, Sarang had been killed. Junhyuk could deal with the three enemies alone, at least that was what he thought. However, there were limits to what he could do. Junhyuk ran by Gongon and said, "Deal with Kraken." When Junhyuk attacked Nid previously, the shockwave hit Kraken, so Gongon could take care of him on his own. Junhyuk, on the other hand, moved toward Nid, who had already started running toward him. However, Junhyuk’s speed was faster than Nid’s, so he closed in on the hero even faster. Although his speed was faster, Junhyuk was unable to get close before his force field disappeared. Nid had seen it disappear, so he twisted around and swung his saw-ded sword. ng! Both swords shed, and Nid opened his mouth. "Hoowwl!" With Nid’s sudden howl, Junhyuk was left paralyzed. He had been regaining his health with his attacks up to that point, so he was not nervous. Nid shed at him again. It was easily to deliver critical hits to a paralyzed opponent, but Nid’s regr attack didn’t do much damage. Even though it was a critical, it only took 5 percent off of Junhyuk’s health. Junhyuk was paralyzed for three seconds, but he only lost 25 percent of his health. Once he was able to move, he dodged the next attack and shed at Nid. The hero saw his attack and smirked. Nid’s body glowed red. Junhyuk had already used his Spatial sh. Previously, when he attacked Nid, he noticed that Nid lost a lot of health. With the increase in Junhyuk’s piercing stat, his attacksnded beautifully. Now, Nid was about to use his ultimate, so Junhyuk started running away. Nid chased him down, swinging the saw-ded sword at him. Nid’s attacks were really fast, but Junhyuk was different from before. It was only a small increase, but he knew his attack speed had gotten faster. Nid was a hero now, so his attacks had gotten much faster. Junhyuk had to find an opening in Nid’s flurry. His speed had increased just enough to parry Nid’s attacks. Junhyuk couldn’t counter, so he focused on parrying. Nid’s attacks all failed, and the hero gritted his teeth and tried to use his powers. Nid’s saw-ded sword turned translucent and passed by Junhyuk, injuring him. It was a critical hit, but Junhyuk only lost 7 percent of his health. That’s when Junhyuk triggered eleration. His perception felt much faster now, and he could read the entirety of the saw-ded sword’s movements. If he couldn’t block it, he had to focus on dodging. Mana was all around him, and the Dimensional Battlefield was restraining him, but he was getting faster bit by bit. Junhyuk could see Nid’s moves and was able to dodge them. Nid was going berserk, and Junhyuk kept moving around, dodging most of Nid’s attacks. He was very fast, but he couldn’t dodge everything. Nid was able to hit him twice, but Junhyuk only lost 7 percent of his health in the process. Junhyuk retreated and checked on his condition. He had 51 percent of his total health left, while Nid had 48 percent. Junhyuk lowered his swords slowly and smiled. "This will be enough." Nid had already used his ultimate, and Junhyuk had prevented damage from that. Now, it was time to take the fight to the hero, so Junhyuk swung his swords and elerated. Junhyuk could anticipate Nid’s attacks, but it wasn’t easy to mount sessful attacks against the hero. Nid was a better swordsman than Junhyuk. So, he had to make a decision. As long as he dodged the critical hits, Nid’s other attacks would only deal 3 percent of damage to him. There was no need to sh against Nid, so Junhyuk ignored his own defense and focused wholeheartedly on attacking. Because he could read Nid’s attacks, he could dodge them regardless. By contrast, Junhyuk didn’t need tond critical hits. His sword shed Nid’s leg, dealing 7 percent damage to the hero. Then, the injury shone, and the hero received another 3 percent of damage. Meanwhile, Junhyuk was hit on the left thigh and lost 3 percent of his health. From his position, things were better than before. Nid noticed that too and was left dumbstruck. "What kind of damage is this?!" the hero asked. His attack stat was mostly the same, but now, he had significant piercing capability, and it was extremely useful. When Arn fought against the legend candidates, he had approached the battle in the same manner. Junhyuk began a flurry of attacks on Nid, who turned his focus to defense. The situation favored Junhyuk. Even though Nid’s attack speed was faster, when Nid focused on defense, it became easier for Junhyuk to find openings. Junhyuk’s eleration was also on apletely different level from before. His attacks couldn’t be read, and because of the mana energy flowing through him, he could rx his muscles while fighting. There was no way for Nid to tell how Junhyuk would move, so Junhyuk was able tond another attack. Junhyuk wasn’t sure if things were different from before because Nid was taking a defensive stance, but the sword shed through the hero’s ribs. Had he been lucky? It was a critical hit, and the attack took 17 percent off of Nid’s health, and the 3 percent damage triggered on top of that. After watching his health decrease, Nid shouted, "Kraken! Help me out!" Junhyuk did not turn around. He had already relegated Kraken to Gongon. His duty was to kill Nid. Nid scowled. Junhyuk’s sword was erratic. The hero didn’t know how to expect his attacks, and they were also harder to block. However, Nid was a hero now, so he didn’t think Junhyuk was superior to him. He had thought that he would win easily, but he wasn’t so sure now. Junhyuk’s swordsmanship went beyond regr swordsmanship. Junhyuk could anticipate the movement of his enemies’ weapons, so Nid asked for help from Kraken, but Kraken couldn’t help him out then. Gongon had transformed and was suppressing Kraken with a flurry of attacks. Nid gritted his teeth and fought hard. He had be confident after bing a hero, but now, Junhyuk was destroying that confidence. Attacking again, Nid gathered himself. He had 10 percent of his health left. Finally, Nid realized why he had been attacked. In the beginning of the fight, Nid had had the advantage. He had swung his sword like a wild beast. Now, however, he was focusing on defense, which was creating openings that Junhyuk could exploit. Understanding things, Nid swung his sword at Junhyuk’s neck. The sword moved a blinding speed, and because Nid had changed from defense to attack suddenly, Junhyuk was shed in the neck. Junhyuk tried to evade, but Nid was satisfied with his strike. Junhyuk took it. However, suddenly, Nid felt a cold de through his chest. The hero looked down and saw Junhyuk’s de piercing through his chest. "I’ll kill you!" Junhyuk stepped on Nid’s shoulder and pulled his sword out. "It won’t be easy." Nid disappeared. [You’ve killed Nid and earned 3,000G.] Junhyuk stared at where Nid had fallen and then turned to Gongon. The dragon was back to his original size, and Junhyuk wanted to try his swords, with his new piercing boost, on Kraken. However, Gongon was winning, so he shouldn’t interfere even though he could kill the octopus with a single Spatial sh at that point. While he did not interfere, he did walk toward the fight. Kraken felt pressured by his presence and, after Gongon kicked him, Kraken died. [Gongon killed Kraken.] Gongon only had 10 percent of his health remaining, but he had killed the octopus, so Junhyuk walked toward him. "Are you OK?" Gongon cracked his neck and said, "It was very easy." Junhyuk smiled. "Sure. Let’s join Sarang and finish the fight." Gongon got on his back. "We are going to meet her?" "Correct." Junhyuk gave Gongon as piggyback ride as he called Sarang. She looked very frazzled. "Are you OK?" he asked, and Sarang forced a smiled on her face. "My health’s increased, but it wasn’t enough. Did you kill them all?" "Yes. Come to the first bottom tower. Bring the lizardmen with you. It’s time to finish this up. Let’s all go together." "Sure." After cuttingmunications, he picked up the pace. Junhyuk ran for a while before arriving at the first tower and waiting. Soon, Sarang showed up. She had brought the lizardmen with her, and she started running fast toward him. Junhyuk smiled awkwardly and opened his arms, and though Sarang ran to him, she hugged Gongon. "Gon, you are hurt!" Sarang cast healing of Gongon, who snorted. Gongon hadn’t beenpletely healed yet, so Sarang topped his health. Meanwhile, Junhyuk felt awkward about having his arms out. He scratched his head, and Sarang walked toward him. "Big brother." "Yes?" Sarang’s eyes were on fire. "Kill them all." Junhyukughed and answered, "Right! Let us go and kill them all!"
