Insanely-Talented Player

24ha

The joy did not stop.

It was not because of the heat reverberating from the arena in the tower. It was thanks to the fiery chords of the Sonata of Gwangyeom (狂炎) that were resonating in his head.

Before the world became a game, the man's occupation

was as a professor at a renowned music university. Frustrated by encountering a wall of art, compromising with social success, and with his cooled passion, no evil thoughts like the flames of the past came to mind.

It should have been so.

That day, the Lord of Flame extended his hand to the man.

A spark came to life in the cold ashes. What the spark revived was his genius, but at the same time it was madness and outrage.

“Art is an explosion...

the professor muttered quietly. It was that time.

An opponent appeared beyond the Colosseum. In any case, a maximum of two people can enter this tower. Unless the King, the Hero of the World, appears, there is no way in this country that a player can defeat him.

The next stage is waiting for him. I had to get out of here quickly and record the evil image in my head (W). Therefore, it was not the time to be dealing with ignorant people who did not know art.

Thinking so, the professor raised his head.

“Do you see a ghost? “Why are you so surprised?”

The other person opened his mouth. Showing off his dark brown coat underneath his winter jumper. How could you not recognize that voice and sarcasm?

“The King of Heroes…?”

“okay. It’s me, you crazy bastard.”

King of Heroes player Kang Yu-seong coldly exhaled. At the same time, a system message passed over the two people's vision.

[The duel begins!]

Yooseong stretched out his arms, leaving behind the deafening shouts that rang out from everywhere. Immediately afterwards, the cold blade was forged and the ‘Frost Sword' was created.

“I don’t know how the world is so full of crazy people.”

“...It’s overflowing?”

“Yes, you crazy bastard.”

“It’s overflowing… what do you mean?”

However, amidst his astonishment,

there was something else that caught the professor's nerves.

“Don’t you dare insult this great artist, the only one on earth, you idiots. Immediately

after that, the magical power of flame began to swirl around the professor’s feet.

“The foolish masses who don’t even know what art is, these stupid, unawakened, foolish bastards…!” How dare you treat this body of art as a mass-produced product and disparage its artistic uniqueness...!”

“A characteristic of art disease is that he suddenly moves forward on his own.”

Yooseong muttered in bewilderment as he looked at the professor who was already engulfed in the flames of hell.

Judging from the looks of it, he must have already finished switching the hidden equipment and skill cards when he entered the tower. The person in front of Yooseong now was not an unknown player who hid his power and disappeared from the ranking board.

Still, nothing changed.

“You think I’ve been dealing with a player with art disease for a day or two.”

Yooseong taunted, adjusting the hilt of the frost sword.

Immediately after, the horrors of hell raged. The characteristics and movement of the flame. I could sense it as soon as I saw its shape.

Of the fire attribute skills that Yusung remembers, from normal to mythic grades, none of them can explain which grade.

“Unique grade.....

“Okay, now you know! This is this unique flame, this uniqueness is the ahhhhh opening of this body!”

“No, who said what? “You’re making a sudden move again.” The professor was excited and raised his voice, and Yoosung muttered in bewilderment.

“Look at my flame, the harmony of fire created by the unique skill Hellfire Orchestra!”

“I didn’t even ask about the characteristics of the art bottle, but they kindly explained it to me up to section 3.”

The flames danced like living creatures and attacked the shooting star.

He quickly created a frost sword to build a wall of cold room, and the flames engulfed the cold air. Yoosung quickly kicked off the ground and widened the distance, calculating calmly.

‘The power of the skill card itself is similar to or slightly below the legendary grade above the hero grade.'

Unique grade.

Literally. Apart from other fire-attribute skill cards, the skill itself that the player is currently deploying was a ‘one-of-a-kind skill card’ in this game.

At the same time, just as uniqueness is not necessarily proportional to performance, the same is true for unique level skills. However, in the first place, the unique level skill itself is not a skill that is randomly given, and considering its scarcity, it is not a skill that can be easily obtained.

In one sense, it is safe to say that it is performing exactly as its name suggests.

At the same time, that was about it in the end.

“The professor, who grew old as he should, somehow rejuvenated himself into an adolescent middle school student.”

Yoosung sarcastically sarcastically dodged the swirling fireworks.

And that was then. Just as you thought you had dodged it, another stream of fire engulfed the meteor. The smell

of burning meat as the flesh burned and

melted clearly reached the professor's nose. There was no doubt that it was evidence that the ‘reality’ was burning.

“Where... are you looking... T

And the meteor body wrapped in flames opened its mouth.

“That was...

Immediately after that, another voice rang out right behind me. Right behind the professor's back.

“It’s an afterimage.”

Huh!

The fact that he was able to avoid the frost sword that was swung faster than his voice was entirely thanks to the intuition he had built up as a player.

Sigh!

The professor quickly turned around, and just in the nick of time, the tip of the frost sword grazed his body.

“Wow, you’re avoiding this.”

.......

As soon as Yooseong could grasp the hilt of the sword, the reality that had been engulfed in flames and burning until just before turned into an illusion and collapsed.

“How on earth...?”

The professor muttered in astonishment.

The game is unequal but never unfair. As a veteran player and a professor who knew that fact, I couldn't understand it even more.

One of the characteristics of illusion skills is that they cannot affect all five senses. Because the balance is not right.

However, the illusion that Yooseong had just shown contained an undoubted substance. How?

“I can’t believe it...”

“I don’t know what you’re thinking, but let’s just say that theory is true.”

The shooting star shrugged his shoulders and answered. At the same time, sparks rushed in.

It was at that moment. The undoubted reality of the shooting star became a mirage and passed away.

“...

The fireworks that were supposed to dance found their way . He lost, and the real Yoosung rushed in from the blind spot again, aiming for the professor's blind spot. The blade tore through his body and protruded out.

Puuk

“Oh, how...

“Do I have an obligation to kindly explain why you lost?”

Yooseong asked back as if it were someone else's business.

《Oculus》

- Grade. Legendary 2 star (★★)

- Ability

. Visual information can be manipulated by designating a specific target and an unspecified number of people.

Same or higher level as the skill's grade. Cannot be used in conjunction with crowd control (Crowd Control ability).

2-star enhancement effect: Gives ‘Keyword: Substance’ to each piece of information for 3 seconds when being manipulated

- Keyword description: Substance

. Possesses this keyword. It can exert physical influence. The

value of a 2-star that is reborn as two ordinary skills and a 2-star that is reborn as two legendary skills cannot be the same. It is

difficult to guarantee even if you dedicate the entire season to get even one legend in the first place.

Even the highest-ranking players within the top 10 cannot promise to have a skill card higher than 2 stars at the end of the season when it comes to skill cards above the legendary level. Moreover, it is only mid-January right after the new season begins! However, the

Clown

Lord It was a story that did not come easily to Yoosung, who had completed the awakening test as a contractor.

“How can you already have level 2 Oculus skills…

“I somehow knew you were using Oculus.”

The professor asked back in astonishment. Yoosung heard those words and answered. It was at that moment. Flames in the area danced and rushed towards the prey.

Not towards Yoosung, but towards the professor himself.

Regardless of whether he won or lost in the 4th tier tower, the professor's flesh and bones were left in the towel. Players cannot kill other players in the tower, and even the player himself is no exception.

Yooseong gained victory in the tower, and the entire landscape stopped. In the first place, there was no interest in winning or losing or receiving rewards in the 4th tier tower .

They were not two people who could fight each other.

“Let’s see, where is the mouse hole other than here?”

Leaving behind the reward of victory, Yoosung counted the ‘exits’ of the tower.

There was one entrance from the city of Seoul, and one in the distance. There was another entrance and exit connected to a foreign country.

[We have conquered the tower. Moving to Calais, France...]

“Ah, damn it...

As soon as I got to the other exit connected to the tower, a shooting star came out. He spat out this curse.

“Art soldiers die suddenly in France.”

Yoosung muttered as if it were someone else’s business. I just lowered my head. I could smell the sea breeze from afar. The cries of seagulls could be heard from afar.

Calais is a port city about 300km north of Paris, France.

“How did you think you could escape me by leaving the tower?”

Yooseong asked coldly.

“Oculus 2 stars should be good, but what should I do with this? “Because Oculus is not the only 2 star I have.”

“How on earth...

The professor was desperately crawling on the floor. In the first place, it wasn't even close enough to hear Yooseong's voice.

“My my art is my art7b.....! “Do you really want to let the ignorant public interfere with the art of this body?”

No matter how hard I tried to run away, I couldn't escape.

It was a literal assassination. It's like the shadow of death that you can't escape no matter how much you run.

And that shot wasn't just a rifle bullet. Because it was a magic bullet with the power of the Frost Lord and all kinds of strange powers attached to it.

《Ice Bolt》

Taang

Gunshots rang out again. An ear-piercing scream continued.

Yoosung, who was hiding himself like a sniper, finally stood up. The gun barrel of ice and frost waving in front of him was transformed into cold magic and dispersed.

And that was then.

An unexpected shadow appeared in front of the professor, who was struggling after losing both legs to a cold bullet.

“Oh my, aren’t you Professor Baek Dong-soo?”

“That’s right!”

The smiling shadow held out its arms affectionately, reciting the professor’s musical accomplishments and accomplishments. The professor raised his head. And I couldn't help but hold my breath when I saw the shadow there.

Top player Maria Jaeger, now better known by her nickname ‘Saint’.

“Oh Miss Maria! I never thought you would understand my artistic achievements! “I knew it would be like that!”

“well.”

Saint Mary smiled silently at the professor’s words. It was a smile that was as kind as a saint’s, but at the same time, more ominous than anything else.
