Maxed Out Leveling Novel

Chapter 41

16. Sun Festival (1)

Dawn comes when the sun rises, and twilight comes when the sun goes down.

The common keyword is the sun.

The festival of the sun, the Sun Festival, was a large-scale event jointly hosted and organized by Dawn and Twilight every year.

First of all, the catchphrase that is being put forward is ‘a place of harmony between the two major guilds in Korea and a place of communication to hang out and enjoy with citizens’, but the situation was a little different.

-Normal hunters think of their opponent’s guild as only rivals, and are not particularly hostile to them. To what extent do we recognize each other’s territories? But, as I said, there are conflicts between the leaders.

Although not openly hostile, Park Tae-hoon, who dreams of integration, and Lee Ji-hye, who wants to separate, are in a relationship running parallel lines. She spends a lot of money on socializing and can’t hold an event.

In reality, the intention was to increase the prestige of this side by breaking the guild over there.

Citizens who can’t see the Hunters fighting in the dungeon directly accept the results in the Sun Festival as superior and inferior to the two guilds.

-And it is also important to raise awareness of Hunters through such events.

As I said, citizens don’t see Hunters fighting in person.

If monsters come out of the dungeon and make a riot, Hunter might be seen as a hero responsible for the safety of citizens.

Because it is not, the original image of the hunter was nothing but a hunter as the name suggests. He was perceived as someone who catches monsters from somewhere and brings them a resource (?) called monstone.

The role of Taeyang-je was huge in that the image of the Hunter, who was just neutral, became quite familiar.

The fact that you can see the surreal performance of the movie’s main characters in front of your eyes was enough to attract the public’s interest.

“Would you like to participate there?”

-Yes.

Although dawn and twilight were the main events, other guilds were not ignored. First of all, it is an event made for all hunters in Korea to enjoy together.

Think of it as a kind of sporting event. Small and medium-sized guilds in Yeomyeong and Gyeonggi and Gangwon compete with the Yeomyeong team, and small and medium-sized guilds in Dusk and Chungcheong, Jeolla and Gyeongsang compete in the Twilight Team.

-All kinds of events are prepared in a variety of ways, but the main theme of the Taeyang Festival is a 3v3 battle.

A high-ranking hunter who is the pinnacle of a hunter.

The great battle between the high-ranking hunters was the most important event in the Taeyang Festival and a showdown that drew attention from the public. It is even filmed at terrestrial broadcasting stations.

The skill of ordinary hunters is not unimportant, but it was natural that the side that won the battle between the high-ranking hunters was recognized as a better guild.

“I’m not a member of Dawn, can I leave?”-Sure. Strictly speaking, players are sent out from the ‘Dawn Team’ and ‘Twilight Team’. All high-ranking hunters belonged to Dawn or Twilight, so naturally, there were no hunters from other guilds.

“Wait a minute. Even if Seo Kang-jin was dead, there would have been four high-ranking hunters belonging to the Yeomyeong.”

-Including me and the guild leader. It is an implicit rule that the leaders of both sides do not participate. Losing an executive level and losing a boss have different levels of shock, right? If Cha Shin Hyeon doesn’t come out, we’re short on players.

“I am.”

Cha Shin Hyeon smirked.

The thing that got rid of Seo Kang-jin will come back like this. Of course, I have no regrets.

-Isn’t that a good opportunity for you too? Although the history of the Sun Festival is not very long, it is the first time that a hunter who is not a member of Dawn or Twilight participates in a major battle. It would be the best stage to debut as a hunter.

“Well, escaping from ignorance is good, but…”

He’s not a Batman who wears a mask and works, and it’s natural to get a name while working as a hunter. Unless he intentionally remains a third-rate hunter.

Cha Shin Hyeon wasn’t the type to risk his life for fame, but he wasn’t the type to deliberately reject the fame that came naturally. Had he done so, he would not have even been given the title of the best person in the world.

She goes with Lee Ji-hye and is already level 50. Anyway, if one day it turns out that he is a high-ranking hunter.

“… … Yeah, it wouldn’t be a bad thing to reveal it slowly.”

Cha Shin Hyeon, after much deliberation, expressed her willingness to accept.

-thank you!

Lee Ji-hye said without hiding her joy.

Cha Shin Hyeon, who chuckled, continued.

“Sometimes I wonder how far my current magic skills can go.”

– Magic?

“I plan to challenge myself only with magic without using martial arts in the battle.”

Of course, it was not meant to seal the infinite magical power that comes from the infinite vitality, or even the feeling of being recognized without being conscious of it.

Such things are closer to the state of the body that is always applied naturally rather than being martial. It can be done if it is sealed, but it is cumbersome.

Cha Shin Hyeon is purely trying to find out her magic level, not pretending to be weak by forcing a penalty.

-Actually, from your point of view, it wouldn’t be fun to use martial arts. Can you feel anything more than playing with a little kid?

“Anyway, dealing with a pure hunter with pure magic is an experience. If I had to mention one more reason, it was also because of Park Tae-Hoon.”

-Yes?“At the most, I hid the tens of thousands of tens of thousands of tens of thousands, but it doesn’t make any sense if I reveal my martial arts, isn’t it? If you show your excellent magic skills, it will act as a smoke screen.”

– You’ve been thinking about it. All right.

Since I received the promise to compete, I had no intention of interfering with whether Cha Shin Hyeon played the drum or the janggu.

Lee Ji-hye did not object.

– Still, if possible, I hope you get at least one win… … Of course, I am well aware that Cha Shin Hyeon’s magic is at the level of a high-level hunter.

“I don’t want to lose on purpose either.”

Cha Shin Hyeon fiddled with the skill cube in his hand.

“If I play anyway, the more overwhelmingly I win, the more spotlight I get.”

The 8 skill cubes I received from Lee Ji-hye a month ago.

At that time, she learned the Wizard’s 6 skills and the Mage’s 1 skill right away, leaving one behind. It was because of her advice that her operation could be too difficult for a novice wizard.

Sorcerer’s class skill.

Now it was time for her to slowly learn this too.

* * *

“Are you going to the blacksmith?”

Confused, Cha Eun-seol asked Cha Shin Hyeon, who nodded her head.

“It happened.”

“You don’t belong to Dawning, are you?”

“Even if you don’t, you can leave.”

As I summarized the conversation I had with Lee Ji-hye, Cha Eun-seol stuck out her tongue.

“I know he’s very strong, but it’s still a great battle. I don’t know if the Hunter who lost his place by his brother will get angry.”

At Cha Eun-seol’s reaction, unaware that Seo Kang-jin was dead, Cha Shin Hyeon laughed involuntarily. Do you want to burst into anger in the underworld?

“Let’s see if there’s something inside.”

“Well, there’s something about it, so maybe my brother asked me to… … . Wow, then, after the Sun Festival, oppa will become a very famous person, right? Isn’t this the first time a hunter who isn’t part of the two major guilds participates?”

“Would you mind signing in advance?”

“Okay.”

Cha Eun-seol laughed.

“Anyway, now that I’m participating in the Great War, I’ll have to stay there for the duration of the Sun Festival even if I don’t like it.”

“You can think of taking a few days off. Are you coming to watch?”

“I am a player too.”

“Huh?”

“It’s not just one or two competitions. I’m also at the level of a team leader, so it’s recommended that I participate in something. So I applied.”

“okay?”

Cha Shin Hyeon showed interest.

“Is it like a martial arts competition?”

“Not that. It’s a game that only archers compete in, but to put it simply, you have to shoot arrows to hit your opponent and avoid the arrows they shoot.”

“How are the participants?”

“Well? There are people who are worse than me and there are people who are better than me. Just looking at the level, I may not be a very high axis.”

“Then it will be a little difficult. If all archers are the same, it would be difficult to create a variable.”

“Is not it. To be honest, it wasn’t a match I was really looking forward to.”

Cha Eun-seol said with a smile as if he was a little sad.

Cha Shin Hyeon, who had been thinking quietly, opened his mouth.

“Can I help you?”

“Huh?”

“I can’t help you hit, but I can help you avoid.”

“Uh, how?”

“There is a little over a month left until the solar festival, so if you train intensively, you can improve your evasion skills. You are learning martial arts right now.”

Hearing those words, Cha Eun-seol’s eyes lit up.

“Isn’t that taking too much of your time?”

“Your eyes are already full of plunder.”

“It was my brother who seduced me first.”

“You were the one who drooped like a dead dog.”

Cha Shin Hyeon grinned.

“There has been a lot of gossip, just the gist of it. Help me? stop?”

“Help!”

Cha Eun-seol wiggled his tail right away.

“Then go to your room and get dressed. Just wear comfortable clothes, upper body protection and gloves.”

“uh? Right Now?”

“It’s a practice you can do at home. It’s good to do it outside, but it’s better to be at home than not to be able to see well because it’s dark.”

Doubtful, Cha Eun-seol followed what Cha Shin Hyeon said.

While her sister was getting dressed, Cha Shin Hyeon also brought her supplies.

Sorcerer’s skill cube. It was just an empty can now because it had already been used during the day.

Kwajik.

Cha Shin Hyeon grabbed the cube with his grip. It doesn’t mean much, just to make it easier to throw.

While disassembling (?) the cube roughly the size of a tennis ball, Cha Eun-seol, dressed in a suit, came out to the living room.

“Let’s start with a simple explanation.”

Cha Shin Hyeon stopped her speech.

“If you look at the level of your martial arts level now, it is about level 18. You can think of external and internal engineering as 9 levels each. It is at the end of the second class, but it has not entered the first class.”

In the past month, Cha Eun-seol has fully reached the level of redistributing, which is equivalent to 5 levels of external and internal attacks. Since then, he has continued to train and build up his power.

It was a very fast pace, but Cha Shin Hyeon even gave me a round bone metamorphosis to the beeswax and carved the path of the right mind method on my body.

“Rining the Red Ki is the stage in which you build up aggression in the danjeon, and that power activates the body. In the process of operating the shimbeop, the qi touches the whole body, so it automatically rejuvenates.”

“It sure has gotten lighter.”

“But that alone is not enough. Are you simply accumulating power in Danjeon right now?”

“Huh.”

“From there, we need to go one step further and learn how to use the accumulated power at will.”

Even if you become a second-class unmanned at the stage of training the enemy, ordinary people can cook lightly.

The active body is light, fast, and strong.

However, in order to be called a true warrior, you need to know how to use your power as you like.

Outer Level 10. Gibal strength.

Strengthen the body by concentrating the aerodynamic power on the desired area.

Inner Level 10. Eogi Chunggeom (御气充劍).

It is possible to transfer the aerodynamic power to the weapon, which is an extension of the limbs.

“Simply put, by using aerodynamics as if using MP, you can make your body stronger than it is now or strengthen your weapons. If both are possible, the combined level is 20, and you will be qualified as a first-class unmanned person.”

“I see.”

Cha Eun-seol nodded his head.

“By the way, can I ask you something?”

“What?”

“What does evasion have to do with hardening your body or weapons? Maybe instead of avoiding it, take it with your body?”

“If you want to be okay even if you receive an arrow as a body, you don’t have a jaw with a level 10 external attack. There are reasons for everything, so let’s start with becoming a first-class unmanned person as our goal.”

“Even if you say that…”

Cha Eun-seol clouded the end of his speech.

A level 18 hunter needs to catch monsters hard to get to level 20, but didn’t it say that a warrior needs enlightenment? Even if I set a goal, I don’t know what to do.

“Can it be done in a month?”

“If not, you have to do it.”

Cha Shin Hyeon chuckled.

“Go over there. A little more. A little more. right.”

He stopped her sister in front of the door leading to the living room veranda. Then he sits down on a chair in the kitchen.

The distance between the two is about 5 meters.

“Put your feet shoulder-width apart naturally. His arms are moderately dangling.””like this?”

“okay. And I will throw this at you.”

“What is it?”

“Think of it as just a stone. I’m going to throw this at your heart. It doesn’t matter if you’re left or right, so catch it with one hand before it touches your body. like catching a baseball. got it?”

“Huh.”

Cha Shin Hyeon threw a cube piece.

Perhaps because he was told it was a baseball, Cha Eun-seol received a cube piece with his left hand as if he was holding it with a glove.

“Well done. Give it back.”

Cha Shin Hyeon continued, turning the returned cube piece round and round in her hand.

“I’m going to throw a lot faster than I did a little while ago. The target area is the same. It is not allowed to dodge or dodge. Just like before, you have to hold it by hand.”

“okay.”

Cha Eun-seol sent his eyes that he was ready.

Cha Shin Hyeon snapped his wrist.

shhh!

Cube pieces were shot like beams of light.

The only thing Cha Eun-seol recognized was the fact that something had flown. There was no time to react and say anything.

right!

The impact on the protective gear was not large compared to the speed at which it flew. It was thanks to Cha Shin Hyeon controlling the speed at the last minute.

“Ah!”

However, the magic of Cha Shin Hyeon contained in the cube pieces penetrated through the protective gear.

In an instant, electricity went up through Cha Eun-seol’s whole body.

“Isn’t it a little exciting?”

“What, what, what is this?”

“It’s a light penalty for motivation.”

Cha Shin Hyeon, who spoke calmly, dragged the cube piece back into his hands as a savagery.

“Did you see it?”

“Slightly.”

“Then we should slow down a bit. I’ll find a speed that you can see clearly with your eyes, but your body doesn’t react to properly, and throw it at that speed. Until you succeed in catching it.”

“what?”

The amazing Cha Eun Seol opened his mouth wide.

“How do you succeed in throwing at a rate your body doesn’t respond to?”

“You can do it.”

“Where is that word! Don’t you just want to support me?”

“Uh-huh, it’s all part of training.”

Cha Shin Hyeon said in a stern tone.

“Even if your current body cannot react, if you strengthen your body by moving aerodynamics, you can react enough. Strengthening the body is not just about increasing strength.”

“that… … they say?”

“When you do not want to receive an electric shock, and your will to grab it somehow burns, the aerodynamic force will move in response to your will. You don’t have that kind of earnestness right now.”

“No, but still… … Electric…”

“As long as it doesn’t hurt your body, it’s going to be gentle. In Moorim, of course, we don’t use electricity, but we use a lot of much more ignorant methods.”

It was true. During Moorim’s hardcore training, there were some types of trainees dying in a pile.

However, when there was no need to develop skills with attributes, there were many cases where he waited patiently until he realized it.

Cha Shin Hyeon didn’t bother to tell me there.

To achieve an effect in a short period of time, pain follows!

“So work hard. If you want to be strong.”

“Yes······.”

While crying, Cha Eun-seol answered.

Of course, if it’s natural, it’s natural, but you can’t be satisfied with the first drink.

That day, Cha Eun-seol received an electric massage until she got tired of it.
