149. In the past, now and in the future (1)
A few days passed.
After taking my advice, Amkena did not reply.
However, it was clear that the attitude had changed. According to Isell, traces of replaying the mission video several times were found in the cell phone records. He started to study on his own.
‘He has a sense of improvement.’
It’s not like you’re playing mindlessly.
It meant that the basic requirements to become a ranker were met. There were many masters who asked why I study while playing games. It won’t work right away, but it will get better with time. I was satisfied with that and devoted myself to training.
day training camp.
“Do I have to do this?”
Jenna put on a puzzled expression.
A whip with thorns was in his hand.
“It’s too rough. I think it’s okay to relax.”
“I don’t want to waste time.”
“Even though…….”
Jenna’s complexion darkened.
The training ground of the training camp. I’m catching my breath with my upper body undressed.
Next to it is a bathtub full of red liquid. It was filled with dozens of bottles of recovery potion.
‘We need to develop durability.’
It was a decision made to properly use Exceed and Bladed Soul.
There is no way this has been done so far. Special measures were needed. So, the method I decided on was this.
Repeating damage and recovery of the body in the arena where healing in the waiting room does not work.
To this end, a large amount of recovery potion was stolen from the warehouse.
“I want you to do this to my brother…”
“There’s no one else to do it for you. When are you shooting arrows at vital points, and how many whips are you at a loss?”
“but!”
“This is for the best. I don’t want to repeat the experience of the 35th floor.”
There is no weaker way.
However, it took a long time and the efficiency was low. Now I had no intention of covering the means and methods.
Jenna made a reluctant face and finally nodded.
“Strike with all your might. I know everything if you lose your strength.”
“all right.”
I turned my back on Jenna and gagged my mouth.
‘Pain is familiar.’
I remembered the appearance of the whip.
It is made by weaving animal tendons, and has a spike at the end to tear flesh and muscle. It was more like an instrument of torture than a weapon.
‘are you okay.’
The pain is familiar.
However, I don’t want to taste the feelings from a while ago again.
I ruminated once again.
“I’ll go!”
The whip tore the wind.
Kwajik!
Stars flashed in front of my eyes.
‘This shit… … .’
The whip tore through the skin and muscle of his back, digging deep into it.
I bit the gag.
I can still stand it.
“A room full of blood…”
The effect is good.
I catch my breath
After hesitating, Jenna moved her hand again.
Wedge liquid!
second blow.
The whole back was hot like it was on fire.
It was as if the skin had been completely peeled off.
‘Than you think… … It hurts.’
My vision was blurred with sweat.
I then winked. A signal to continue.
The whipping continued. three, five, nine times.
I calmed down my clouded mind.
It is just a simple preparation process.
“Nine times!”
“it’s okay.”
“Why is this so…”
looked back
Beyond the metal wall, a bloody back was reflected.
‘This must have been enough to dig the bones.’
I went straight into the bathtub next to it.
The potion started seeping into the affected area.
“Kuk!”
I couldn’t stand it this time.
When he spit out the gag, blood flowed from his mouth.
“Gwa, are you okay?”
“……of course.”
only one set.
I had to go through at least ten sets a day.
If done right, it will have excellent durability and resilience.
Gone are the days when a few sandbags would work.
Now, he needed a training intensity suitable for his superhuman body.
to the next.
Whoo!
A log hanging from a steel rope is reciprocating from side to side.
It is shaken by a mechanical device.
“…”
one. two.
I timed it and cut through the logs.
A huge log that could have been several meters came right in front of us. I lowered my lower body and swung the wooden sword.
bang!
It felt like being hit by a truck.
The actual impact will not be less than that.
hold on
added strength to the hand.
I tried to balance somehow, but my feet slipped.
The log that pushed me started to go back and forth at both ends again.
“What training is that?”
Belquist, who was watching from the side, said.
I looked down at my hand. Blood flowed from the cut.
“It’s to develop resistance. It’s a training to block logs with a wooden sword without breaking them.”
“It only looks crazy to me.”
“Maybe right now.”
It is necessary to shed an impact amount of several tons in place.
It can be smashed head-on like a ballista harpoon. But then the training is meaningless. As far as sense and skill.
‘One way or another, it takes a long time.’
The stage where you can instantly recruit heroes is over.
It took time to restore the power lost on the 35th floor. It was the same whether it was a paid draw or a free draw. I had to master the mission and at the same time raise my level and skill to the appropriate level.
‘Is it time to move on to the next step?’
Amkena will be feeling it too.
The fact that a little more systematic system was needed.
It was time to put flesh on the operation.
Well, even that will take some time in the end.
I was going to do some personal training and wait for Amkenna to decide. Neither reorganizing the capture party nor creating a new system is useless without the will of the Master.
‘Don’t make me wait too long.’
I firmly gripped my wooden sword and jumped in front of the log.
after a while
[Skill awakening!]
[‘Han (★★★)’ has learned ‘Regeneration (Lv. 1)’!]
As a result of repeating the torture several times, the desired skill was obtained.
regenerative power. It was literally a skill that increased the body’s natural resilience. However, I did not stop because it had nothing to do with the durability of the body.
Every evening, I played mock battles with Amkena.
After a few days, Amkena’s skills rose to beginner level. Even if her talent isn’t outstanding, her enthusiasm is visible. She seemed to be studying hard.
Several days passed again.
<Master.>
Yurnet’s voice tickled my ears.
when late in the evening. I was in the middle of sorting papers at my desk.
<Sorry if you were sleeping.>
“I was doing chores.”
<I seem to have been out of touch lately… … .>
“There’s quite a lot to do.”
Niflheim had been postponed.
Communication with Yurnet was the first since leaving Iolka.
I put the papers in the drawer and locked it.
“What’s up? I didn’t invite you to say hello.”
<I wanted to say goodbye.>
“It’s a funny joke.”
<… … Whenever you say you’ll be in touch every week.>
“hmm?”
<Nothing. My throat is itching for a moment.>
Yurnet coughed and continued.
<I have something to report to the Master. Since this is a serious matter, I have decided that I cannot decide on my own.>
“It’s a serious matter.”
I put my back on the chair.
Something that the current sub-master, Yurnet, cannot decide.
There is only one thing that comes to mind.
“Is it a reunion?”
<As expected, Master. You got it right.>
“No word of mouth praise. If you have something to tell me, tell me.”
<There is a rumor that the unity group’s forces are gathering in one place.>
“What are the results of the investigation?”
<It’s true. Hundreds of airships are gathering across the server.>
I chuckled.
The World Raid didn’t even open.
However, at this timing, they are gathering troops out of nowhere.
‘It’s obvious.’
<Master, these bastards… … No, the operation by the members of the unity society has been confirmed.>
“I saw that.”
Among the comments on the video uploaded by Amkena, there was something that stood out.
It is to recruit prospective members of the solidarity.
Although it was neglected in indifference.
<It’s a little different.>
“different?”
<Look.>
A window appeared in my field of vision.
Play mark in red square. He was the icon of Mu-Tube.
However, the background is slightly different. this is… … .
‘It’s my channel.’
It was Loki’s channel.
It has about five million subscribers.
The last video update was 6 months ago.
The screen went over.
It was the most recent video clip.
Comments expanded.

I have a concept of being a master, but this person also pays a lot.
It’s all a concept. It’s all luck, not skill. It just happened because I was lucky enough to pick a good hero.

All of a sudden, people with missing screws come out. What kind of inferiority do you have? Why would you do this with Loki?

Hundreds of comments are flooded with similar content.
Almost the same, only the id has changed. Even if you wrote a part-time job, it is a reliable organization.
I scraped it down and closed the window.
<There are comments on the video left by the master at the same time.>
I laughed.
what a cute thing
<The exact time was a week ago, Earth time. After the Barts Alliance is destroyed.>
“Bartz Union?”
<It is said that it was created to counter the indiscriminate looting of the Unity Society. I don’t think I could last even a week. That’s not what matters.>
Yurnet said in a strong tone.
<We need a Master.>
“really?”
<Yes. The Master is in Niflheim… … .>
“Does Niflheim belong to these guys?”
Yurnet cleared her throat.
<If the Master is there, our losses are small.>
“Do it yourself. I didn’t make it so sloppy.”
<… … Whenever you say you won’t forget.>
“hmm?”
<Nothing.>
Does Niflheim really need me?
Not really. Niflheim’s operating system has already been completed.
‘Except for emergencies.’
But, I’ve never had that, so I don’t know.
I have always been at war with missions.
PVP was just a side branch.
“You handle it appropriately. When it’s over, let me know the result.”
<Master, even if I ask like this… … Wouldn’t it?>
“Why are you asking me like that?”
<I can’t remember the master’s face.>
I sighed.
“Tell me clearly. Why do you need me?”
<Because I don’t have command authority for the 1st party in Niflheim.>
“Are you saying you want to gather a party?”
<Yes.>
‘… … .’
I clenched my chin.
The goal of the unity meeting was obvious.
According to reports, other rankers were not touched.
only me
‘I knew you would come.’
It was faster than expected.
‘What can a low level player do in a battleground with the highest level?’
“I get it.”
I answered.
Yurnet continued in a brighter voice.
<A dispatch request has been sent to the master of Taoni. I’ll convince you. Airship arrives in two days. Until then, keep the jade body.>
“Call the kids from outside. Don’t get attacked for nothing. And it would be nice to have detailed combat data and combat data on them.”
<As commanded.>
Before cutting off communication, Yurnet said.
<Thank you for listening, Master.>
“What are you talking about?”
promised to help
The process before that was a joke. I can’t deny it.
‘I’d rather have it now.’
Rest period to replenish power.
It was a good time to be away for a while.
I looked at the ring on my left hand.
A black gloss ran along the surface of the ring.
This gift from Yurnet was said to prove that he was the owner of Niflheim.
You should pay for what you get.
‘Is it a war?’
Niflheim does not avoid fights.
Always bumped into each other in front.
whoever it is
There were numerous challengers.
Large guilds with hundreds of members, guild unions on other servers, and rankers like me.
‘129 matches, 129 wins.’
It was time to play the 130th.
I got up from my seat.
