    Chapter 87

    Episode 87

    Christian’s strength was that he was a genius.

    I’m not just talking about quick achievements.

    Christian had the same ability, but he used it differently. He won the battle with an efficiency several times greater than that of the criminal.

    It is about moving efficiently and defeating those stronger than you, even with much inferior physical strength, muscle power, agility, and magic power.

    But there were also drawbacks.

    That is, the basic ability level is somewhat low compared to the level achieved.

    It was inevitable.

    Because it took time to develop these basic abilities.

    Of course, he had a natural talent for this aspect as well, and was able to raise his abilities much faster than others in a much shorter amount of time, but it was inevitable that he would have some shortcomings.

    But the way Christian looked now, there was no hint of such shortcomings.

    No, on the contrary, it was much better.

    Even though it is a 3-star item, its movements are not inferior to those of a 4-star item.

    Simon soon realized why.

    ‘I’m using magic to amplify my physical abilities. But if I amplify them like that, I’ll soon reach my limit. Why would I do something so foolish?’

    Christ knew very well that excessive physical amplification was forbidden.

    But he didn’t hesitate.

    It was thanks to the power of the Vampiric Ring.

    ‘The other name for this relic is the Ring of Transformation.’

    Because of its name, one might think it was a relic with a blood-sucking function, but that was not the case at all.

    The function of this relic was to absorb external energy and transform it into energy suitable for the wearer.

    ‘As the relics are opened, the types of energy that can be absorbed and their efficiency increase.’

    Still, step 1.

    The types of energy that can be absorbed are surprisingly limited to energy ‘inside the body’.

    It’s useless unless you take some elixir or something.

    Archmage Lanya could only use this relic in combat after reaching the third stage of unlocking, but Chris was different.

    Because Chris had an inner energy that he could absorb.

    That’s right, it was the Union’s radiant mana hidden in the double core.

    Woof.

    The vampiric ring vibrated invisibly.

    The radiant mana contained in Chris’s inner core flowed into the vampiric ring, and that radiant mana was transformed into dark magic and sent to Chris’s outer core.

    ‘At this level, it’s a magic that surpasses the limits of the core.’

    Chris felt his magical core rising endlessly.

    As Simon thought, Chris’s basic abilities are lacking.

    This was especially true for basic physical abilities such as stamina and strength.

    But would that be the case for ‘Magi’ and ‘Mana’ too?

    If you look at Magi and Mana separately, it is like that.

    Chris’s magic power was slightly less than that of a 3-star mana, and the alliance’s mana was far less than that of a 5-star mana.

    But what if you could combine the two?

    The lack disappears.

    Rather, it is more than adequate.

    ‘Of course, this also has its limits.’

    First of all, efficiency.

    Only 30% of the energy absorbed by the Vampiric Ring is converted.

    This figure increases as additional relics are unlocked.

    And time.

    Because it was forcibly drawing in external energy, it temporarily overloaded the core. Therefore, this state could not be maintained for long.

    In the future, as your achievements increase and your core’s durability increases, this limitation will be gradually overcome.

    ‘Is 1~2 minutes the limit now?’

    That was enough.

    Pfft!

    Chris’s sword cut down the spiderlings.

    The things that were left unfinished were taken care of by Jupien and Marisa, who followed behind.

    In an instant, they arrived under the Spider Queen, and Chris shouted.

    “Please now!”

    Simon activated his ideology.

    Blood capture.

    Just like before, a fountain of blood spurted from Simon’s arm, and the vaporized blood turned into particles that held the Spider Queen in place.

    The Spider Queen stood perfectly still, her mouth wide open.

    It wasn’t paralysis or paralysis.

    It’s a perfect ‘stop’ that goes beyond the law.

    marvel.

    But as powerful as it was, it had its limits.

    “It won’t take long. Get it done right away.”

    The opportunity lasts only a few seconds.

    If you don’t kill the Spider Queen inside, it’s over. Instead, Chris will be killed.

    But I could do it.

    Pfft!

    The black sword soared.

    And the will contained in the black sword.

    The black sword filled with will struck the Spider Queen’s neck.

    Bam!

    Surprisingly, the Spider Queen’s neck was intact, except for the thread line.

    Considering that Chris’s black sword, which contained his will, had about half the power of the black steel, it had unbelievable durability.

    Simon frowned.

    “Oh, that’s right! Back off now!”

    There was still a chance to back out.

    But Chris didn’t back down.

    ‘I can do it.’

    Woof.

    The vampire ring cried again.

    The radiant mana contained in the inner core was converted into dark magic and rose to the outer core.

    ‘More, more.’

    Chris gritted his teeth.

    It felt like the outer core containing the magic was going to burst due to the forced transition.

    But he didn’t stop.

    Until the outer core reached its limit, like a dam on the verge of collapse, it contained magic.

    And then, at the very moment when the outer core, unable to hold out, was about to crack.

    The black sword moved again.

    Paaaaaaaah!!!!

    The magic that was stored in the core on the verge of bursting exploded in the form of a black sword.

    Simon and others who saw that sight opened their eyes wide as if they were going to tear apart.

    ‘Is that a black sword transformation?!’

    4 star realm.

    A stage where the black sword is transformed into various forms and applied beyond simply manifesting it.

    ‘You’ve already reached the level of 4-star? It hasn’t even been a few months since you became a 3-star?’

    No, that wasn’t it.

    Chris’s level was still 3 stars.

    It was simply an expression of ‘will’.

    ‘If you can put your will into the Black Sword, then it is completely possible to put magic energy beyond the limit into the Black Sword.’

    Will is an infinite power with no limits.

    So, using that will as support, I load the black sword with magical energy beyond its limit.

    That’s what Chris is doing now.

    Of course, if other people heard it, they would ask how that was possible and tell me to stop barking.

    ‘I don’t know. How can I just do it?’

    Chris clenched his fist.

    I gave a strong shout.

    The ‘will’ to cut was contained in his sword.

    Magic beyond limits.

    A strong will, like a river.

    As a result, an amazing miracle occurred.

    Damn.

    The Spider Queen’s neck split open and she flew into the air.

    Chris fell to the floor.

    “Coolook, creak!”

    In return for the excessive magic and will, the black sword was shattered and disappeared, and Chris suffered internal injuries and vomited blood.

    It was okay though.

    ‘It’s over.’

    The Spider Queen’s body, with only her neck remaining, trembled and then disintegrated into pieces.

    It wasn’t just the spider queen who disappeared. The baby spiders disappeared as well.

    I cleared the floor!

    Meanwhile, Simon looked horrified at what Chris had just accomplished.

    ‘Just now, that. What the hell was that?’

    Marissa, Jupienne, and Kashmir were so low-level that they seemed to think Chris had just done something similar to the Black Sword transformation, but Simon was different.

    He saw right through Chris what he had done.

    That’s not a black sword transformation or anything.

    ‘I put my will into the black sword, and then I amplified that will by infusing it with magic. But is that possible? How?’

    For those who handle the river, it is possible.

    But that is possible because it is a force. A force is a power that embodies will.

    How could he accomplish such a thing with the Black Sword, which was nothing more than a lump of magic?

    There is only one reason why Chris was able to do such things.

    Because he was the owner of crazy talent.

    ‘No, can that simply be expressed as talent?’

    Simon swallowed hard.

    I knew Christian was a genius.

    But this wasn’t at that level.

    A thrill ran through me.

    There seemed to be no limits to his talent.

    ‘I wonder what kind of face Nogaju would have made if he had seen this sight.’

    Simon was convinced.

    That this time my choice was not wrong.

    As long as Christian is here, I don’t think there will be any boring moments in the future.

    And curiosity began to build.

    Indeed, what kind of miracles will this crazy, talented genius accomplish in the future?

    Simon walked towards Chris as if possessed.

    “Are you okay, Your Majesty?”

    “Oh, yes.”

    “I have something to tell you.”

    Chris looked puzzled.

    “Would you like to learn hematoma from me?”

    “!!”

    Chris looked surprised.

    ‘Why Simon?’

    Hematopoiesis was an arcane technique passed down only among vampires.

    It was rare for it to be passed on to outsiders.

    Even in the Dark Maga, the only person Simon taught hematopoiesis to was Prince Sherard.

    “Why?”

    “There’s just… no particular reason. It’s a whim.”

    Simon smiled faintly.

    “I think it will be more fun as Confucius becomes stronger.”

    “…….”

    “And with your talent, Prince, I think you’ll be a good competitor to Prince Sherard.”

    Chris’s face turned cold.

    If you learn hematopoiesis from Simon, you’ll probably end up tangled with Sherard a lot.

    But Chris nodded.

    ‘I’m not in a position to be picky. I have to become stronger.’

    He is the owner of dark magic.

    And it’s 100% pure.

    The more you learn the powers of various magic, the stronger you become.

    ‘More than anything, the bloodletting technique was a power I had originally coveted.’

    Unlike other secret arts, such as curses, illusions, destruction, and preparations, which are somewhat open to the public, bloodletting techniques were something that could only be accessed through opportunities like this.

    “I will do as you say.”

    “Good. I look forward to the future.”

    It was a moment when Simon raised the corners of his lips in satisfaction.

    The sound of a shaman spirit belonging to the ruins echoed through the empty space.

    [You’ve cleared the 17th floor!]

    [Not the first achievement!]

    [No clear rewards will be given!]

    It was as expected.

    Because the original clear reward was only given to the first pioneer.

    however.

    [We confirm that there is a challenger who has achieved great things!]

    [Confirms that the challenger has achieved an achievement that surpasses his/her limits!]

    [The challenger’s name, achievements, and nickname will be recorded in the Hall of Fame!]

    ‘Huh?’ It was unexpected.

    A message from a spirit of no attribute floated into the air.

    Christian Van Baren Kajar

    Achievement: Over 8th floor achievement

    Alias: ‘He who breaks a rock with an egg’.

    The level that Chris could originally challenge was around the 9th floor.

    But since he killed a boss 8 levels higher, he was recorded in the Hall of Fame.

    ‘I didn’t do it on my own. Well, it can’t be that bad.’

    The higher the fame, the better.

    In particular, it would be difficult to reveal the exact circumstances of the annihilation of the 27th floor demon, so it would be good to increase your fame by decapitating the Spider Queen.

    ‘By the way, I want to go and rest now. Alcohol! Alcohol! Alcohol! Can I have just one glass?’

    I was quietly thinking that I might be able to get some alcohol outside of the tedious Dark Maga area.

    The spirit’s voice rang again.

    Completely unexpected.

    [The realm shares the achievements of a challenger who achieved two impossible miracles!]

    [The challenger’s achievements are delivered to ‘Glass Lake’!]

    “……??”

    Simon and others tilted their heads.

    It was the first time I heard that name.

    But there was one person who understood.

    It was Chris.

    ‘Wait a minute, why is there a glass lake here?’

    He looked puzzled.

    He knew very well what kind of place the glass lake was.

    ‘This is the hideout where the ‘prophet’ of the Union resides.’

    The seven nine-star superhumans who support the union, the Seven Deities.

    The Prophet was one of them.

    More importantly,

    ‘… That’s the secret location of a famous swordsmanship school.’
