Blood’s mouth opened.
What happened in a split second.
From the moment he decided to summon Sang-Hyeon, there was no failure in Blood’s mind.
The process of linking attacks right after summoning may not be smooth!
I never thought that the summoning itself would fail.
I felt creepy.
I thought I had a lot of scenarios in mind, but not with this guy.
A situation has occurred that I thought was so unlikely it wasn’t even worth thinking about!
‘Is this joy?’
Meanwhile, Sang-Hyeon admired himself and was amazed at the perfect evasion that had been achieved in a split second.
Could it be a coincidence? It could be.
But there was one definite conclusion.
Since there are many skill options, you can respond to variables like this.
If I hadn’t developed or acquired skills like backstep in the first place, this wouldn’t have happened.
I thought that the time I spent steadily building up my skills was shining through. Thinking that way made me feel even more proud.
‘I almost died without being able to move.’
The shiver running down his spine wasn’t just felt by Blood. Sang-Hyeon was the same.
If it were me in my past life, I would have just been dragged away, beaten to death, and turned into a piece of meat.
But the current me, with its completely different direction and expandability from the past, was on a different level.
Maybe that’s why.
As we entered phase 2, Blood, who had seemed like a mountain, began to look small.
Pfft!
With a brave charge, Sang-Hyeon immediately closed the distance to Blood and continued his fierce attack.
Since we had prepared countermeasures to deal with the absolute summons, we were able to move without any hesitation.
Moreover, thanks to the continued battle, Sang-Hyeon has finished analyzing Blood’s habits and weaknesses.
Blood’s attacks with large movements were certainly quite powerful, but they also had their own set of gaps.
Right then.
◎ Silence
◎ Duration 0.45 seconds
‘Silence has set in!’
Silence, which was always an option for basic attacks, was activated.
It was a silence that rarely broke out for Blood, but as the number of attacks increased, a reaction came.
『Knockback Burst』
The connection was like a knife.
A knockback followed by silence.
This was a combo route that Sang-Hyeon liked to use, and it was good for stealing the timing of an opponent who couldn’t use their skills for a moment.
『Skill Reset』
He immediately pulled out his winning move.
‘Intelligent’ boss monsters like Blood have the ability to learn, so they won’t repeat the same opening they gave you once.
So when the opportunity came, if you didn’t finish it off firmly, there was a high chance that you would face a backlash later.
Continued weakness strengthening, and 4th hit.
With 5 hits left, a deadly combo of Whisper of the Sage and Sword of Crushing was used, just like before.
Blood’s defense was more vulnerable than ever as he was being pushed back by the knockback burst.
Phew!
“Ugh… … !”
Blood, who was stabbed right in the middle of his stomach, clenched his teeth and let out a groan of pain.
It wasn’t just a stab.
It tore open my belly button and came in, clearly causing a fatal wound somewhere in my body.
The intensity of the pain rising from below was so intense that I didn’t even want to look down to check.
“It’s not over.”
『Mortal Wrath』
Sang-Hyeon continued the next link with an indifferent expression.
It was an attack that would have been an additional critical hit for Blood, who had suffered a wound to his abdomen.
Phew!
“Get out!”
An attack that tore apart the peritoneum and abdominal muscles without fail. Blood screamed, almost like a pig being slit.
A sight where you want to scream with all your might, but you have no choice but to swallow your screams because your stomach is weak.
Blood couldn’t understand this situation at all.
‘You won’t die from this?’
What Sang-Hyeon didn’t understand was the same. Blood’s matt was better than he had thought.
Of course, there were weaknesses.
Its self-healing or regenerative abilities seemed poor, unless it was sucking blood from the Lake of Blood.
Moreover, since he had just suffered a deep wound to his abdomen, it was obvious that his swordsmanship would be severely limited.
As he had previously suffered an injury to his left lower back, it was clear that his range of motion would be affected.
‘It’s a slap fight.’
I feel confident now.

Even if it was a close fight, there was a good chance that we could push through.
Instead, I established one major premise.
In keeping with Blood’s nature of restoring health based on the number of hits, small consecutive hits will not be allowed.
Instead, I decided to take a heavy hit that had to be strategically allowed, because that would only restore 2 health.
From then on.
A brawl has begun between one who had experienced hell in his past life and one who has never experienced hell.
Of course, the situation was unfavorable for the one who was left with two heavy sandbags after being hit twice.
It was Blood.
* * *
After the over-psychedelic sustain period with a long duration of 8 minutes.
After a slugfest that lasted until the remaining 2 minutes of Over Psychedelic were used again.
“Haaak. Haaak.”
“Ugh. Ugh.”
Sang-Hyeon and Blood, whose stamina had dropped to the lowest level, barely managed to let out the hot breath they had been holding in.
Blood’s half-opened eyes were filled with fatigue.
I was on the verge of shock, as I was spewing out more blood than I was sucking in from the lake of blood.
However, he was holding on, displaying superhuman strength and mental strength befitting his status as a boss monster.
‘My physical strength is… … .’
Sang-Hyeon checked his physical condition.
Before I knew it, the figure had dropped to 11%.
‘I feel like my body isn’t listening to me. I’m going to pass out if I keep doing this.’
The condition wasn’t very good.
Blood’s level was higher than Sang-Hyeon had expected, so it was bound to take longer.
In fact, it is impossible to do this one-on-one!
But Sang-Hyeon made the impossible a reality with his own power, and now the end was in sight.
‘The one who loses first loses.’
Sang-Hyeon did not let his guard down.
The most dangerous situation in combat is the one we’re in right now. When both sides are exhausted.
At this time, a single missed attack or defense will result in immediate death.
“Haaaaaap!”
Sang-Hyeon regained his slackened breathing and ran towards Blood again.
This time, I consciously moved my body in a large way to expend a lot of energy.
It was a risk that I wouldn’t have taken in normal circumstances. But now, there was a good reason for it.
◎ Overdrive
◎ Invincible for 3 seconds
◎ Madness
◎ Awakening, buff effect 3x
◎ Complete immunity to all status abnormalities
This was to immediately activate Overdrive and bring out the conditionally activated skill, Frenzy.
In both cases, the prerequisite was that health was below 10%. That requirement was just now met.
There was nothing to fear.
Sang-Hyeon, who had become completely invincible, swung his greatsword while clinging to Blood.
Thud! Thud!
Blood tried to restrain Sang-Hyeon, who was rushing towards him like a moth to a flame, with the Blood Sword, but he was helpless in front of the invincible one.
Phew! Phew! Phew!
Sang-Hyeon, who had no reason to avoid the attack, persistently poked at Blood’s abdominal wound.
Blood had no choice but to stick close to him and thrust his greatsword inside him.
“Kwaaah!”
Blood screamed as a burning pain spread throughout his abdomen.
He tried to roughly move his body forward and push Sang-Hyeon away, but the knockback didn’t work on Sang-Hyeon, who was in a frenzy.
“Zenjaaaaang… … !”
“Get out of here, you little punk!”
Blood’s scream and Sang-Hyeon’s shout intersected.
And then, above the western sky, which was soon dyed red by the sunset.
Puhwaaaaak!
A fountain of blood poured out from Blood’s abdomen, spraying out like a spray of water.
“I… … . This blood… … .”
Blood’s eyes, looking at Sang-Hyeon with a vain expression, were filled with mixed emotions.
As long as you are in the lake of blood.
Blood’s idea of being immortal turned out to be a shameful result of arrogance and pride.
“Nothing in this world lasts forever. Your life is no exception. Goodbye. Thanks to you, I have come to know my shortcomings.”
Sang-Hyeon stuck the Great Sword of Fighting Spirit into the deep wound in his abdomen.
『Iljin Gwangpung』
A shockwave was created within Blood’s body that would cause intense ripples.
It was the intention to completely cut off the breath by involving the five viscera and six bowels.
Kuung!
In the end, Blood, whose breath had stopped, fell forward with his eyes wide open. He was dead.
[… … level up!]
[Level reached 139!]
“The rapid growth title is really great.”
The level jumped by 7 in one breath.
Blood itself is a very difficult boss monster, so it probably gives a lot of experience points.
Here, the experience points are tripled with the Rapid Growth title, so you can experience an absurd level-up.
If there had been no title, it would have gone up a lot, but it would have only gone up by 3. With just one title, it was like shortening a huge amount of time.
“at las…….”
Sang-Hyeon picked up the sword from the fallen Blood.
Blood-drinking sword.
Epic grade weapon artifact!
If the Greatsword of Fighting Spirit has a strong overall rough feel.
The Pima Sword had the sleekness of a sports car.
If you look closely at the meticulously crafted parts here and there, it feels like looking at a famous sword made by a craftsman.
“The Blood-Drinking Sword”
■ Artifact Grade: Epic
■ Artifact Introduction: This is a famous sword favored by the Marquis of Black Blood Blade, who drinks blood.
Whenever you kill this black monster that enjoys exploiting the blood of the weak, it steals 2 health.
The stamina taken becomes a sweet breath of life and is immediately transferred to the sword’s owner.
■ Strength +300
■ Stamina +100
“It definitely feels like an artifact for inspection purposes. It increases strength and stamina by a lot.”
The strength stat increased more than I thought. The same goes for stamina.
Additionally, when combined with the Clever Hunter title, each time you kill a monster, your health is restored by 3.
At this level, you can actually recover on your own in the dungeon without a separate healer player.
Rather, the healer’s very existence becomes meaningless, since self-recovery is completely possible.
“I think it’s time to say goodbye to you, whom I’ve grown attached to.”
Sang-Hyeon looked at the great sword of fighting spirit, which was covered in Blood’s blood, and made a pitiful expression.
Wasn’t he the one who had been doing the dirty work with me? He was a guy I always liked because he fit my hand so well.
However, you cannot use the Blood Sword and the Greatsword of Fighting Spirit together. The weapons are too bulky to switch between.
“Just remove the weight reduction from the Greatsword of Fighting Spirit and apply it to the Blood Sword again… … .”
There would be some penalties, but it seemed like there would be no problem reapplying the lightweight.
In addition, the knockback burst skill that is conditionally attached to the Greatsword of Fighting Spirit is the same. You can just move it.
“Let’s eat. Since we’ve been working hard on it, the absorption rate should be high, and since it’s a unique grade, there should be hidden inheritance.”
Sang-Hyeon took his seat right away.
After we finish eating quickly, we can go outside and retrieve the body of the man we left behind.
As time passes while he is exposed to the air, the time that has been standing still will also pass quickly for the man.
Sang-Hyeon took up the Greatsword of Fighting Spirit.
I was going to check the absorption rate before eating it. I wonder how much stats it can give.
[Measure absorption rate.]
[The basic stat absorption rate for Unique grade is 60%.]
[The artifact’s usage period is applied retroactively, so the final absorption rate is 100%.]
“… … .”
Greatsword of fighting spirit.
Does the guy want to be a tree that gives generously until this moment, when he will have to say goodbye forever?
The absorption rate was 100%, which I had never expected. It was possible to absorb without even a single stat loss.
