When the Frozen Mage tried to hypnotize with his third eye.
『Fantasy Mediation』
Sang-Hyeon was creating his own illusions and making them charge at the Frozen Mage.
The timing was perfect.
Because the Frozen Mage was trying to focus on hypnosis, he missed the activation process of the illusionary intervention.
Thanks to that, the Frozen Mage was completely captivated by the illusion of the upper body and turned his head away.
As the illusion slipped past the Frozen Mage, it gave a signal that there was another move ahead.
Fantasy arbitration forces choices.
What if he had realized that the illusion that had slipped to the side was fake? Sang-Hyeon would have activated mediation and changed the location.
‘It’s a vicious skill.’
Sang-Hyeon evaluated himself like this.
The fantasy mediation skill is vicious.
You force an unconditional choice on the other person, but you can’t even make that choice the right one.
Anyway, a gap was created.
Turup!
Sang-Hyeon jumped with all his might and landed on the Frozen Mage’s broad shoulders.
The height was similar to that of Sang-hyeon, but the body itself was strangely extended like a tree, leaving many corners to step on.
We have secretly deployed weakness reinforcement in advance, and the 4th hit has already been secured.
Sang-Hyeon went straight into the next link without any hesitation.
『Whispers of the Wise』
『Sword of Destruction』
Phew… … !
Kwaaaaah!
It was a success.
The maddening sword of the Frozen Mage’s left collarbone was pierced by a diagonal strike from the upper right shoulder.
The sword went in so deep that half of the blade of the greatsword disappeared in an instant.
Boom!
But the greatsword was stopped once by what was probably a bone or something else at the top of the chest cavity.
‘I needed a next one anyway.’
Swish!
Sang-Hyeon grabbed the greatsword.
Then, black blood flowed out along the greatsword.
Push-shu!
Soon, a fountain of blood shot into the sky. It shot up so hard that it completely wet Sang-Hyeon’s face.
『Mortal Wrath』
Plop!
25% of the damage from the previous hit was immediately triggered along with Mortal Rage.
Because it was a skill that intentionally ‘exploded’ wounds, the physical pain felt was greater than the 25% damage.
Shut up!
The moans of the Frozen Mage, screaming as if squeezing his abs, echoed sadly.
Seized the opportunity.
Sang-Hyeon thought so.
In other words, if you fail to decide the game here, your turn will be passed.
Because the Frozen Mage, who couldn’t hold out any longer, is calling all the undead hordes here.
If you’re unlucky, even if you catch a frozen mage, you might end up surrounded by undead and eaten alive.
“Just do it!”
Sang-Hyeon stabbed the wound on his collarbone again with the sword.
『Freezing』
This time, I even applied freezing to the sword.
The idea was to freeze everything inside my body if necessary. Just because I’m a Frozen Mage doesn’t mean I’m ‘ice’.
Phew! Crackle!
“nice!”
The wall exploded with a single blow.
This is because the maximum critical damage occurred.
The force of the wall that burst from within ruptured the Frozen Mage’s internal organs.
No matter how great the mid-boss monster was, its internal organs were not capable of withstanding the tremendous destructive power of the electric current.
『The Cursed Beheading』
The passive skill of the True Sword, Cursed Decapitation, was triggered immediately.
However, in the case where you lose your life in an instant like a ghoul, the situation ends before the cursed beheading is even activated.
Those who always have a little bit of health left, like the Frozen Mage, were more likely to have a finale like this.
Whisper!
… … !
The head of the Frozen Mage, now a headless ghost, flew into the sky, spraying black blood.
The scene was vividly remembered not only by Lee Ga-hee and Jeong Jun-hyeok, who were watching, but also by Choi Si-hoo.
Even to Do Kyung-soo, who was watching Sang-hyun for a moment while catching his breath, it looked perfect.
[Level up!]

The level immediately became 166.
The effect of the Rapid Growth title was also applied without fail to the mid-boss monster, Frozen Mage.
‘If you kill a monster at level 160 and your level goes up by one, that’s a scam.’
It was he who personally created the scene of the fraud! Sang-Hyeon smiled unseen.
Sang-Hyeon, who had confirmed the death of the Frozen Mage, shouted at Jeong Jun-Hyeok and Lee Ga-Hee.
“Sweep them away! They are now fools! They won’t do anything. They will just wander around!”
It was just as Sang-Hyeon said.
The demons who suddenly lost their control tower looked confused and didn’t know what to do.
When a normal Frozen Mage senses his own death, he delegates control to another nearby mage.
That was their unique control know-how that had kept the entire undead army in perpetuity.
However, the Frozen Mage who faced Sang-Hyeon sensed his victory until the very end… … .
When I realized too late that I had been caught off guard, I didn’t even have time to concentrate enough to give up control.
‘I just got the artifact!’
I took one of the necklace artifacts that was naturally created from a dead frozen mage.
Unique Grade Artifact! Things felt like they were going well from the start.
“Haaap!”
Sang-Hyeon, who turned his attack direction towards Lee Ga-Hee and Jeong Jun-Hyeok with a shout, started to run wildly.
After a while.
The undead hordes, having lost their commander in chief in a hurry, began to fall like dominoes from all directions.
At the center of it all were Sang-Hyeon and two team members.
* * *
Same time.
“Now do you understand why I asked you to pay attention to Shin Sang-hyun?”
“… … I have to admit, this is really amazing. It feels like I’m seeing an early Master.”
“No. I wasn’t that proactive and at the same time completely aware of the situation. I was much more dull.”
“Aren’t you underestimating me a bit?”
“Look. Shin Sang-hyun knew from the beginning that he had to kill the Frozen Mage. And he had the ability to do so.”
“That’s true.”
“And as soon as the Frozen Mage dies, they immediately turn around and start wiping out the remnants. But what about us? What about us?”
Do Kyung Soo pointed straight ahead.
The Sword God and Sword God team was continuing their classic strategy.
Each team had one dedicated tank to block the Frozen Mage’s ranged attacks.
The remaining four were gradually killing the undead hordes.
Of course, it was also a tactic with the least risk and a tactic to aim for in the first stage of the attack.
“We are just the classics.”
“That could also be a orthodoxy. Safety isn’t always orthodoxy. The three of you have already ended the situation?”
“To be exact, it’s Shin Sang-hyun alone.”
“It was Jung Joon-hyeok and Lee Ga-hee’s sense that they were able to cut off the big guns that were trying to approach Shin Sang-hyun from behind.”
“I’ve never seen a swordsman fight a Frozen Mage so roughly one-on-one. Wow… … That’s impressive.”
“Don’t you admit it?”
“Yes, I admit it. I feel a little bad, but I don’t want to belittle your skills.”
“I told you, there’s a reason for my curiosity and interest. I don’t like just anyone. Hehe.”
Do Kyung-soo burst into a good-natured laugh, as if he were an older brother happily watching his younger brother’s success.
Then, Choi Si-hoo observed Sang-hyeon and recited the abilities he had confirmed. He had a dumbfounded expression as he spoke.
“Spatial isolation skill. Stiffening. Short-distance spatial movement. Instant critical damage skill. Fantasy skill. This is one person… … .”
“Yes. It’s Shin Sang-hyun’s ability. It’s probably one of many. Aren’t you curious?”
“I can’t help but look forward to it.”
“Let’s just watch. I’ll do well.”
“Oh, really… … I’m sorry.”
“Tell that to Shin Sang-hyun later. I never directly ignored him, but it’s true that I looked at him with colored glasses.”
“Yes, I understand.”
Choi Si-hoo bowed his head.
A skill that cannot be denied!
Choi Si-hoo couldn’t help but wonder how far Sang-hyun’s potential could go.
* * *
30 minutes later.
Sang-Hyeon spoke to Jeong Jun-Hyeok and Lee Ga-Hee, who were wiping away beads of sweat.
“Let’s take a quick look. It looks like the main force is continuing up the main route. We’ve also finished cleaning up.”
“Whew. You shot it without a hitch, really. I didn’t know it would be this easy just because there’s no Frozen Mage.”
“Since there are few variables, I was able to use healing skills on attacks with confidence.”
The two men looked very satisfied with the battle. In fact, it was Sang-Hyeon who had planned everything.
The Frozen Mage was the biggest concern as a potential threat, but didn’t Sang-Hyeon subdue it early on?
“You’ve worked really hard! I’m sure you’ve heard this a lot, but thanks to Sang-Hyeon, I can conquer the battle with ease.”
“I’m seriously worried that this will lead to the store being closed. The healer can’t heal… … .”
“I think I know why everyone wants to be close to Sang-hyun. Do Kyung-soo and Han Hyun-jung… … .”
“Let’s stop with the awkward compliments. I wasn’t the only one who did my best, right? We all did our best.”
“There is a difference in depth between doing your best on a board that has been laid out and doing your best to create a board.”
“Anyway, it ended happily, so it’s all good! Let’s just take 5 minutes to fix things and then go right away.”
“great!”
Sang-Hyeon also went into maintenance right away.
There was no need to touch up any weapons or skills, just to check the artifact I had previously obtained from the Frozen Mage.
“Cold Necklace”
■ Artifact Grade: Unique
■ Artifact Introduction: Gain 50% resistance to freezing attacks from the Undead Mage series.
The necklace, filled with the essence of Han Ki, contains the essence of Mana condensed by the Frozen Maze.
■ Mana +200
‘Mana 200? This is absolutely not to be eaten. It would be better to replace the necklace of flexibility I was wearing before.’
Sang-Hyeon checked the options related to mana stats and stuck out his tongue.
Apart from the freeze resistance, the amount of mana increase was greater than expected. Just looking at this value alone, it is unique or higher.
Sang-Hyeon took off the necklace of flexibility he was wearing. Then he immediately checked the absorption rate.
‘good.’
The absorption rate is 100%.
I wore it all the time without taking it off – even when washing, of course – so it seems like there’s a lot of body odor(?) left.
As soon as I put on the Cold Necklace, my Mana stat went up to 760.
This amount of mana is higher than the mana stat of magic players of the same level.
It could even be lower if you don’t fill up your mana stat by equipping expensive artifacts.
‘Death Touch’s absolute summoning and freezing’s absolute freezing. They’re all monsters that eat up 500 mana each, so you can’t really say there are that many.’
If others had heard it, they would have said it was the height of deception. Anyway, my heart felt strong after seeing the right mana.
The Necklace of Flexibility is a necklace that reduces the duration of stiffness to 90% of its original level and has an evasion stat of 50.
Since the absorption rate is 100%, you can eat without any burden as there is no stat loss at all.
The visualization of food that was done immediately.
“huh?”
But the curry that Do Kyung-hye made came out! The curry that I had eaten so deliciously.
