Chapter 45

17. Jeju Island (1)

The biggest issue for this year’s solar festival was Cha Shin Hyeon.

So far, there has not been a hunter who has won twice in the big battle. The skills of those who participated were so arduous, they lose their strength after winning one.

As if ridiculing such precedents, Cha Shin Hyeon went on to win two in a row.

Perhaps he had exhausted his strength, and he withdrew without joining the 3rd player – in fact, he judged that this was enough and yielded to the person behind him – but it was enough to show him already.

[If you catch two people in a row, is it at least level 60?][Oh, it seems so. Wasn’t it dope?][Where did you come from? Have you been hiding all this time?][When I asked a hunter I knew, I heard that it was the first time I heard it.][Hunter 4 captains should be changed to 5 captains now?]

The reaction on the internet was something like this:

Although I was a little skeptical about the sudden appearance, it seemed that Cha Shin Hyeon was more focused on the skills she showed.

And the interest the Hunters had was far greater than that of the general public.

For the first time since the two major guilds were established, a high-ranking hunter not belonging to the two major guilds appeared!

Of course, no one thought that Cha Shin Hyeon was purely self-made.

He can’t go unnoticed until he becomes a high-ranking hunter. There is only one case where that is possible. It is only secretly fostered by the two major guilds with countless dungeons.

So people regarded Cha Shin Hyeon as a secret weapon raised at dawn.

Cha Shin Hyeon didn’t really care, though he might be offended by such a gaze.

It was a reaction he had to endure since he participated in the big battle.

Once the name has been announced, it is enough to show it in action later. who is above

Regardless of the public opinion, he focused only on training.

He still had a lot of things to improve on his newly acquired skills.

[Yin and Yang conduction]

Type: Origin Skill / Passive / No MP consumption

Rarity: A+ (the supreme treasure of questionable existence)

Proficiency: B- (Can be used without being shaken by external factors)

Description: Linked with magical properties (Huh). Adds the attribute of attraction or repulsion to magical power. The direction and strength of the force can be specified as desired, but the more force is applied, the faster the consumption speed of magic power.

Origin skills are named according to the user’s wishes.

The reason I named it Yin-Yang Conduction (陰阳顚倒) is because I was thinking about the harmony and collision of yin and yang in the process of envisioning this magic.

Cha Shin Hyeon was uninhabited to the bone, and even if he uses his imagination, his base is bound to be in martial arts.

Among the martial arts of ascension, there are several things that increase power through the unity or repulsion of yang and yin. Of course, magic has a different nature from that of aggression, but I tried to see if it was possible.

However, interesting results emerged.

By magic, ‘unification’ and ‘repulsion’ itself have been embodied. Unity is an attraction that attracts each other, and repulsion is a repulsive force that repels each other.

Ryoo Seung-geon’s fire dragon was pressed down by repulsion from top to bottom, and Choi Ji-hyung’s body was controlled by manpower from front to back.

And a slightly more developed variety than then was tormenting Lee Ji-hye now.“Ugh…”

The pressing force is offset by aerodynamics, and the lifting force is endured by the Cheongeun chum.

Unin, who can immediately intervene in his body using aerodynamics, certainly did a better job than Hunter.

But that’s not to say that he doesn’t get swung like a puppet to and fro by gravity and repulsion, not that he overcame obstacles and hits Cha Shin Hyeon.

There would have been a breakthrough if it had been simply pressed or swung, but it was not easy because the direction and strength were arbitrary.

I expected a 10, but only a 5’s interference comes in, so the power goes in too much.

Cha Shin Hyeon’s other magic comes to you when you rant like that. If you hit this a few times, it’s game over.

“Whew.”

Lee Ji-hye let out her sigh.

After finishing her match, she approached Cha Shin Hyeon and said as if she were complaining.

She said, “I’ve tried a few times, but I can’t do it without excluding martial arts or skills. What level is Cha Shin Hyeon?”

“Level 53.”

“If you look at your fighting power, you would believe it even if you were a Wizard of level 65 or higher. Isn’t that too fraudulent, that skill?”

“I’m also using shortcuts, so it’s not perfect.”

Cha Shin Hyeon smiled bitterly.

Obviously, yin-yang conduction is an extremely good skill.

But even with empty words, it could not be said that the efficiency was good.

No matter what skill, there are very few cases where the proficiency level reaches A-. In fact, even if it is a B+, it is almost the highest grade, so if it is a B- proficiency, it is good enough.

However, the skill efficiency was not very good. In the process of converting the properties of magic, the loss was great, and the speed at which the converted magic was consumed was no joke.

If his magical power was not infinite, he would not have been able to face Choi Ji-hyung without knowing Ryu Seung-geon. MP must have run out.

“Originally, it’s a skill that I can’t use properly because the fuel economy is so bad, but I feel like I’m forcing myself to use it.”

“… … That seems more absurd.”

Lee Ji-hye responded as if it was ridiculous.

“Anyway, it will get better as we keep improving. I think this will be enough for today.”

“Yes.”

The two of them prepared to go out to the dungeon – Dodeoksan Dungeon.

“Call me whenever you need me. It is helping me a lot.”

Lee Ji-hye’s words were not empty words.

Just as Cha Shin Hyeon was testing her and improving her yin and yang conduction proficiency with her, she was also being tested and her martial arts were improving.

It is usually not difficult to respond to the constantly changing attraction and repulsion, and the magic that comes in between them. He had to constantly change his work force and deal with it.

Cha Shin Hyeon was unintentionally training Lee Ji-hye’s strength.

In fact, within three weeks after the end of the Sun Festival, Lee Ji-hye’s inner strength level rose by 1.

“I do.”

“Shall we try shadow play next time in Dalian?”

“It would be nice to test the power of a skill. I’m thankful, but Dalian itself seems to be pushed back a bit. I think I’m going to have to leave the house for a while.”

“Anywhere travel…?”

Cha Shin Hyeon briefly replied to Lee Ji-hye, who tilted her head.

“I decided to go to Jeju Island.”

“Are you going alone?”

“right. Well, it’s because of work.”

“If it’s work…”

There was sincerity in Lee Ji-hye’s eyes.

“Did you get a call from ‘Tamra’?”

“right.”

“Actually, it wouldn’t be strange to have contact. If it were Tamra, I would have been thirsty for beings like Cha Shin Hyeon. It is understandable that you are away from home for a long time.”

“I don’t think it’s surprising.”

Cha Shin Hyeon said it was a little surprising.

Then, Jihye smiled.

“Didn’t you say that even when they offered you a better deal than us at dusk?”

“Yes it was.”

“Even if Tamra shakes off all of her pillars and brings them back, they don’t treat her like we do. Even if you pay more, the person who said they don’t like it will give you less.

“Can I wear a pair of legs?”

“ Cha Shin Hyeon is sponsored individually, and martial arts are originally a guild that has nothing to do with the dawn, right? Cha Shin Hyeon will take care of that. All you have to do is remember that we are righteous.”

Cha Shin Hyeon grinned at her cool attitude.

“Remember. If you’re shy, you can come just for sightseeing.”

“That would be even better. Then go ahead.”

Lee Ji-hye looked off gracefully.

It takes just over an hour by plane from Gimpo to Jeju. It is shorter than driving from Seoul to Daejeon.

So Cha Shin Hyeon got on the plane with a light heart as if she was going to a neighboring town.

There was no need to carry luggage because the money came into the bank account and the latest inventory was set right away.

At Jeju Airport, employees dispatched from Tamna were waiting to take Cha Shin Hyeon. Cha Shin Hyeon took their guide and went straight to the headquarters of the Tamra Guild.

“welcome.”

The guild leader of Tamra, Ha-geun Kim, welcomed Cha Shin Hyeon with great hospitality.

“Originally, even if I went up to Seoul, it wouldn’t be cool, but you came down to distant Jeju…”

“It’s far. it’s soon And isn’t Mugeuk just a one-man guild? It is against etiquette to ask the chief of a large guild like Tamna to come and go.”

“Oh, no. Who will judge non-play by size? Cha Shin Hyeon’s presence alone makes it shine.”



Cha Shin Hyeon’s words weren’t quite wrong, but Kim Ha-geun’s words couldn’t be considered unfaithful.

Of course, the size of the guild is not unimportant, but the level of the hunters it belonged to was more important than that. Dozens of people didn’t rush to attack one dungeon, so it was quality rather than quantity.

Even though Tamna was a guild that ruled all of Jeju, it did not have a single high-ranking hunter. In front of Cha Shin Hyeon, who defeated two high-ranking hunters in a row, he couldn’t dare to be cocky.

“Let’s listen to the unfamiliar compliments and talk about the original story.”

Cha Shin Hyeon, who smiled lightly and waved his hand, changed the topic.“In a brief conversation we had over the phone, Mu-geuk and Tam-na said they wanted to build a cooperative relationship.”

“Oh, yes.”

Kim Ha-geun nodded his head.

“Can you tell me more?”

“Before that, is it okay if I ask you one question? It may be a little rude, but it is very important to us.”

“I will listen.”

“… … Cha Shin Hyeon, do you have anything to do with Dawning?”

Ha-geun Kim, who was hesitating, asked a question carefully.

It was an expected question.

“Relationship… … It’s a very vague expression.”

Cha Shin Hyeon pretended to think for a moment before answering.

“Personally, it is true that I have a relationship with Dawn. I have a close relationship with the top management.”

“Ah······.”

“But the dance has nothing to do with dawn. If he wanted to form a relationship with Dawning at the guild level, he would not have had to create a separate guild.”

“Is that so?”

Kim Ha-geun’s voice became unobtrusive. Because he got the answer he wanted.

Although it is almost certain that it has something to do with Dawning under the circumstances, Cha Shin Hyeon’s affiliation is not Dawning, but non-playing.

This was very important.

No matter what the pro-dawning tendencies, it was because it was a ‘different’ guild.

“At least when we’re talking about business, you can think of it as a separate guild.”

“Then I will think about it and tell you.”

As Cha Shin Hyeon put the wedge in, Kim Ha-geun opened his mouth.

“As you may know, the Jeju region is neither the sphere of twilight nor the sphere of dawn.”

“Isn’t that Tamra’s sphere of influence?”

“You are using too many words. It’s just an association created by the small guilds of Jeju Island. The scale itself is incomparable, but the situation is very different from Twilight and Dawn, which are single guilds.”

When Twilight was launched six years ago and Dawning was established against it, Jeju’s guilds, which were originally exclusive, did not join the flow. They united to establish the Tamra Guild and declared their own path.

So far there were no problems. It wasn’t that they invaded Jeju Island at dawn or twilight just because they didn’t participate, and I didn’t feel particularly uncomfortable with the job of a hunter.

The problem arose as the two major guilds were fixed and all high-ranking hunters belonged to the two major guilds.

High-risk dungeons began to appear in Jeju Island, but there were no hunters to attack them.

“It is said that in order to borrow the power of a high-ranking hunter, you have to open your hands to dusk or dawn in the end. Now come and ask for help, or even if you ask for it, it will be used as an excuse to steal your territory from Dawn or Twilight and eat it up.”

Ha-geun Kim looked straight at Cha Shin Hyeon.

“But didn’t Cha Shin Hyeon himself say that martial arts are a guild separate from the dawning?”

“Yes.”

“So I am asking you.”

It was officially proposed to the guild leader of Tamra and the guild leader of martial arts.

“Why don’t you join forces with us to attack the dungeon?”
