Chapter 111: Mirror Which Breaks Down The Boundaries (1)
Ate!
Sweet Potato, who looked like it had filmed the perfect mukbang, stretched out its body.
Its small and cute wings fluttered as it wagged its tail.
Jin-hyuk looked at it in delight as he heartily hoped that this cute little thing ate to its hearts content and grew up well.
Well, the magic stones here werent mine at all.
Right. That was the most important thing.
Growing up using someone elses property gave one a kick in life. Even if the entire bowl was scraped clean, it wouldnt feel like a waste.
Then, where do I see how much he grew?
Jin-hyuk checked its status window using Eye of Gluttony.
[Target status window cannot be checked due to level difference.]
Of course, this message had to come out.
It didnt really matter, as Sweet Potato wasnt something he would ever leave.
[Due to the relationship between Master and Pet, the level difference is being ignored.]
[Sweet Potato
Age: 1
Level: 98
Strength 105 Agility 98 Stamina 90 Magic 192
Lv1 'Acid Saliva' Lv1 'Time for Dinner' Lv1 'Acid Breath' Lv1 'Flight' Lv1 'Fear'
Characteristics: When the ancient being fights, the master's magic is consumed. Normal combat requires 5 magic power per minute, and intense battles require 15 per minute.]
[Experience distribution is supported in parallel. In other words, the master and pet can each acquire the experience points for the same monster.]
Although it was strong from the moment it was born, its stats skyrocketed as it ate 35,000 magic stones.
And this was all for a fresh hatchling!
It is strong. Instead, the difficult thing will be my magic.
Jin-hyuks magic stat was 80.
If Sweet Potato was used in battle, he would only last 5 minutes.
And if we fight together, it will be much shorter.
It would be better to think of it as a hidden card that he would use only when he needed it most. However, he didnt think he would ever be in such a crisis.
At that moment.
Clack!
The door opened, and a familiar man walked in.
Kang Byung-chan.
H-how did this happen
Seeing that smiling face turn instantly gloomy.
Hm. What did he look like?
He looked like a pitiful bull?
Did he feel like acid was running down a dry throat? It felt like the resentment that Jin-hyuk held during his BJ days had washed away with this sight.
M-Magic stones. Did you use all of them? It has to be a lie. This cannot be real at all. Hahaha. Right. I am still in bed dreaming.
People who were too shocked seemed to always desperately deny reality.
Kang Byung-chan was laughing while doing just that.
But did he know?
The nightmare wasnt ending but had only begun.
Jin-hyuk approached him
Its a bit like fanning down a burning house, but I need to receive compensation for my unfair contract with Lee Jong-soo soon..
What? Compensation for what? What are you even saying?
What was Jin-hyuk talking about?
You see, this is the price I am paid for appearing at the station. Compensation for what you did to me is another matter.
If you committed two sins, you should pay twice for them.
How dare you try to merge them into one.
Did he think this was some special case or something?
No are you really saying that after everything you did? You devil! Are you even human? Uh? Are you human, I ask you?!
Im being insulted just because Im asking to be rightfully paid? Well, those curses I can take, but are you in a position to even yell at me?
Jin-hyuk asked while looking at the man.
Cold magic began to flow into the air, the magic of an S-rank player.
And it was natural that Kang Byung-chan could not handle it for even a moment.
Kuak
Only then did Kang Byung-chan realize what his words meant.
He panicked to the point that he tried to run. He recognized that his opponent was a monster that he couldnt touch.
It seems like your mind is finally working. You seemed to think that I was below you do not forget who holds the hilt of the sword.
As he said that, he then opened the Broadcasting System.
There was a video of the conversation between them from last night.
Of course, the attempt to corner him was also there.
The evidence was complete.
From a stressed mans point of view, this was out of control.
If you are sure to go through. We can see this on the 9 oclock news. The tyranny of the journalists who exploit the powerless BJs uh. When this coincides with the election season, dont you think the candidates for the office will become conscious of public opinion and take you down?
When politics came up, Kang Byung-chan became paler.
Perhaps because he didnt expect anything like this.
I, please that! That will not happen. That cannot happen to me.
Ah. Do not worry. The secret is safe with me. If you are obedient.
If he became a gentle dog, they would have a good relationship.
But if he tried to weasel his way out of this prison, then the magic stones he lost would seem like a childs prank by comparison.
Kang Byung-chans body trembled.
It must be because he realized that Jin-hyuk wasnt simply threatening him anymore.
I I understand.
Kang Byung-chan nodded.
Nice.
With this, he had another useful chess piece in his pocket.
The 6th floor of the Tower of Trials.
Jin-hyuk took out the Mirror which Breaks Down the Boundaries from his subspace inventory.
There was one last thing he needed to do before meeting Silvia to participate in the festival of the elves.
you told me youd tell me how to become strong. Is this it?
Chun Yuseong looked at Jin-hyuk and the mirror with a puzzled face.
He was an assistant that had been called to handle various chores.
If it involved sword techniques, he would not bother Jin-hyuk, and, considering his personality, Chun Yuseong would do what was asked.
In other words, if it involved teaching him something, he would be ready to follow.
Why? You can grow rapidly if you breathe the air on the upper floors. With this mirror.
I have a rough idea what that is. You really get the most absurd items.
Well, I was lucky.
Luck well, lets move away from that. Rather, why do you need my help to attack the upper floor? Arent you able to do that alone?
Uh?
Jin-hyuk flinched at those words.
Actually, if he used this shortcut to go to the boss, other named monsters would appear. And he didnt like dealing with those that had no value to him.
He wanted to use Chun Yuseong for it, but this guy had a sharp brain.
After dueling him 100 times, he quickly noticed that Jin-hyuk wasnt the kind of man everyone thought he was.
Ahem. Well. I care for you, think of you, and take care of you. Only a few players climbed the Tower together in our time, right? And we too had a bond at that time so lets do it together. That is what I mean.
Jin-hyuk spoke many words.
He tried to highlight their relationship and move Chun Yuseongs heart.
But Chun Yuseong didnt seem to buy this.
Man. This is why he didnt like quick-witted people.
Jin-hyuk quickly changed the topic.
Ah. There is one thing you need to know before we leave. I think I should tell you this before we go. Actually.
I know that Unknown is you.
Chun Yuseong interrupted him and spoke with a confident voice.
Chun Yuseong had known that the two people were the same.
Even if you edit the videos, you cannot fool the movement. No one else might know, but I knew it right from the start.
is that so?
Because it didnt make sense for another person who fights like you to be there. Besides, just by looking at the confidence and skill usage and that chuunibyou attitude, I couldnt think of anyone other than you.
Um.
It was a bit surprising that this good-looking bastard could recognize it.
For a time to come when I finally hear you praise me.
Dont get me wrong. I admit that you are great, but in the end, I will win.
What did he expect from this man?
In the end, their swords had to clash.
Right I was more than a fool to be moved by those words.
Jin-hyuk shook his head. Talking was good, but it was now time to move.
I am finally using this.
Jin-hyuk raised his head.
The higher places in the Tower that one would never be able to see from the 6th floor.
If this item that was classified as overrank was used, then he could move up to the 10th floor in one go.
Ba-dump!
His heart beat quickly.
He wasnt fully developed yet, but there was no fear in attacking the 10th floor.
This was because he could go up against higher difficulty monsters.
After a long while, it will be fun.
He could only stay up on the upper floor for 30 minutes, but that was more than enough.
For a veteran like him, 30 minutes was like 30 days.
Jin-hyuk infused magic into the mirror.
And at that moment.
Woong!
[Mirror which Breaks Down Boundaries is activated!]
[The target is Player Kang Jin-hyuk and one more (Player Chun Yuseong)]
The mirror began to expand from the size of a palm into a large gate.
It was similar to the gate that Rick opened.
Well, this is a high-level item that can interfere with causality.
A gate theoretically capable of taking them up to the 40th floor was in front of him now, absurd.
Oh. Is it like this? With such strong magic, we can jump over a lot of floors.
Chun Yuseong narrowed his eyes.
So, which floor are we going to?
Why ask such an obvious thing?
Jin-hyuk opened his mouth.
Open to the 10th floor.
He chose the highest he could go for now.
That was where the boss with the [Invincible] ability was located.
[Gate activated]
[The road to the 10th floor, 'Warrior's Resting Area', is now open.]
He wondered if the surface of the gate was shaking, but it soon calmed down.
Actually, that is what I was hoping for.
Chun Yuseong smiled and walked towards the gate.
