Chapter 30
Episode 30 – Golem (2)
I didn’t set the alarm because it was the weekend, so when I woke up, the sun was already up in the sky.
“Ummm… ….”
Yesterday, when I woke up, I was going to go to practice right away…….
Last night, because of a sudden question, I fiddled with the status window and fell asleep too late.
‘Still, there was a harvest.’
Why is it so hard to hide your expression when you’re with Dina, even though you have the [Sharpening] Trait?
[Sudden skin] Is a B-class positive trait.
It’s not a trait that can be broken for a simple, trivial reason.
So, for some reason, I held on to it for a long time and found out a great fact.
“I didn’t know that it could be turned on and off.”
So, until now, I turned off the [Fearless] Attribute and complained that [Fearless] Did not show the proper effect.
From my experiments, it seems that fatigue accumulates little by little if you keep [Immediately] Active for a long time…….
‘I think it’ll be fine if I only use it when it’s important.’
Even if fatigue accumulates, it’s just a little, so it’s not like I’m seriously tired.
Even that, with a little bit of mana, you can push away most of the fatigue.
I turned on the status window to check again.

As I check the growth trend, laughter leaks out.
Thanks to the number of times I died from the golem yesterday, my stamina stat went up by 2 and my strength stat went up by 1.
Abnormally rapid growth for a person who only trained for a short time.
The stronger you get, the harder it is to raise one stat, but so far you’re getting stronger and faster than others.
“Haaa… ….”
Anyway, I don’t want to wake up.
‘Let’s lie down for a while and then go out.’
The sunlight coming through the window is warm, and the bed is so comfy that I don’t want to get up.
‘Just 10 more minutes… ….’
When I closed my eyes thinking about that and opened them again.
“Cheval.”
It was already after the sun had set.
*
The sun has sunk over the horizon, but the streets of Star City are still full of life.
Fortunately, if I didn’t go out of Star City, I only had to go back to the dormitory before 3:00 in the morning, so it was okay for me to stay out now.
Buying a piece of chicken skewers at a store that is still open, on the way to the gymnasium….
I met Dina playing with Kami at the same place as yesterday.
“… ….”
I awkwardly said hello and went on my way without saying a word, but Kami jumped out of Dina’s arms and hit my ankle.
And then he looked up at me saying he was happy and meowed, but how could he hold it in?
Right away, he squatted down and gave Kami a lot of love.
Dina, who seemed to be in a good mood for some reason, joined in and touched Kkami before coming to her senses.
“Hot! What time is it now?”
“It’s 11 o’clock.”
There is still some room. I wish I could touch you more.
After silently stroking, Dina comes to talk to her.
“… Where were you going?”
“I was on my way to the gymnasium.”
Dina seemed to think of something and nodded her head.
“Have you been with Kkami all day?”
“… Yes. I played with Cami all day long.”
… All day?
When I put on a puzzled expression, Dina tilted her head as if there was something wrong with her face.
“Do you have anything else to do?”
“Yes. Even if I do, I prefer to play with Kami.”
Saying that, she takes her in her arms and kisses her forehead, whispering, “You like it, too?”
Ah. She should have just taken a picture.
From noble mtl dot com
I wanted to touch Kkami a little more, but now she has to go.
“Then I’ll be on my way.”
When she got up from her seat, Dina followed suit.
“Ah, me too… !”
“Huh?”
“It’s nothing…….”
I felt like I was about to say something, but I don’t mind.
‘If it was something important, I would have just said it.’
After saying hello to Dina and Kami, I was on my way to the gymnasium, and I belatedly remembered what she had to say, so I turned around…….
“Dina, from next week, you won’t be a director… ?”
There was neither Dina nor Kami.
As if belatedly realizing that she had something to do, she jumped up and took Kka-mi with her.
From next week, you should know that the other guys are in charge of class S.
I headed straight to the gymnasium.
*
A dark labyrinth dungeon with nothing.
A golem with a blue mana core walks out.
“Whoa… ….”
Yesterday I ate my heart too hastily, but now I am different.
‘Besides, I’ve learned one more thing.’
On-off function of iron-clad characteristics.
This meant that there was also the possibility of another characteristic that could be controlled on and off.
That’s why I experimented with all characteristics until late in the morning.
[Master of Swordsmanship] And [Reflection of Light] Were not characteristics that could be turned on and off, and [Steel Skin] Could be turned on and off.
Then, my remaining attributes are [Sixth Sense] And [Super Concentration].
There was no need to turn off the sixth sense in the first place, but it was impossible to turn it off.
However, it was possible to adjust the level.
If I were to quantify the degree of activation of the [Sixth sense], I could divide it on a scale of 1 to 10.
The level of activity is usually around 3.
Therefore, it could be lowered to 1 to make it less tiring in everyday life, and it could be activated up to 10 during battle.
As an experiment, I raised the [Sixth Sense] To 10, but it seemed like it would be useless.
It was because I could feel the sound of the wind outside the dormitory, the rustling of grass, and the mana floating in the air.
‘And the important thing now is [Super Concentration].’
It was a trait obtained while entering a state of trance in a physical fitness test.
Although it usually improves my overall concentration.
Activating [Super Concentration] Makes it possible to display overwhelming concentration.
Even [Super Concentration], [Sixth Sense], And [Master of Swordsmanship] Have quite good synergies.
When the [Sixth sense] Enters the mind that has entered a state of overwhelming concentration, it gives the illusion that time is stretching indefinitely.
The attack flying towards me seems to be approaching slowly, and the [Swordsmanship Master] Tells me exactly where and how to stab.
If you use it too much, you will get a headache, so you won’t be able to use it for long…….
Fix your sword and run towards the golem.
I slightly twisted my shoulder to avoid the core flashing blue light and shooting out beams, and put magic into my sword.
Yesterday, I was in a hurry, so I just hit it, but in a world that seemed to be slowed down by [Super Concentration] And [Sixth Sense], The ability to think infinitely accelerated makes my mind relaxed.
The essence of mana overlaid on the heart became a perfect mana heart over a long period of time.
The string-like mana drawn from the mana heart moves in detail and wraps each muscle fiber, explosively strengthening the physical ability.
The sword blade covered over the sword seemed to have no proper shape.
The [Serin Ryu] That Park Se-rin showed was used like a variety of weapons with swordsmanship.
I still can’t reach Park Se-rin’s toes, but there is one thing I can do decently.
‘Originally, a golem would have to be like a hammer, but… ….’
The sword blade, which sways without a fixed shape, looks like sharp fire, or it looks like hundreds and thousands of blades are swaying together.
‘Swordsmanship rips rocks.’
The sword energy emitted from the swinging sword tore through the golem’s mana coating.
Quad Deuk!
The sword that tore through the hard mana coating struck the golem’s body.
Kung!
One arm that was so strong was ripped off and fell off.
But we cannot stop here.
Among the things I learned while training with Park Se-rin, there is one thing I liked the most.
If you enter a fantasy world where you use a sword, it’s something anyone can dream of.
‘Emission of the sword energy.’
It was a feature that was also installed in the [Shinam Sword], But it had the disadvantage of having to use a jet-black inscription to release the sword energy with the [Shinam Sword].
As he wielded his violent sword energy again and released it, dozens of sword weapons were shot towards the golem.
Quaaang!
The power beyond imagination shattered the golem and the remains fell to the ground.
“Sir Baal! Won!”
Strangely, the fantasies do not change even though they are cheering with hurray.
‘Should I just end it or move on to the next level?’
I waited thinking that if I waited for a while, it would go to the next level on its own, and I felt a fight behind my back.
‘Oh no way.’
Looking back, the remains of the golem were floating in the air.
Among them, the most notable remains are….
“f*ck. The core is not broken.”
I drew my sword again and rushed at it, but countless debris flew in and interfered.
No, it actually hurt me.
The boulders, filled with magic that flew at tremendous speed, boasted considerable power, so it was as if every bone in the body was broken one by one whenever it hit somewhere.
As the remaining rocks cling to the wreckage with the core, it gradually returns to its original shape, and the golem’s core blinks once again.
A beam of light shot out, and I couldn’t avoid it thanks to the rocks that were still flying in, so I was hit directly by the beam and flew away.
