The white light from my staff lengthened like a string and soon hit Shin Heejaeās back. Then, the HP of Heejaeās character, which had been reduced by more than half, was filled.
In addition, translucent shields began to appear around Heejae continuously. The blue flames died down without even being able to burn Shin Heejaeās hair. The ominous eyes that followed his back blinked, as if there was a disturbance, and soon disappeared as well.
Youāve successfully blocked all the skills!
āWhewā¦ā¦.ā
Having managed to barely take a breather, I avoided all the attacks fired at me and continued to buff Shin Heejae while following him.
With my help, Shin Heejae safely narrowed the distance between him and the long range dealers. As soon as he secured the skill range, his unilateral slaughter began.
He pretended to rush from the front, moved by stabbing the wall with his spear, and sent the head of the earth spirit user in front of him flying.
User āHeejaeā has disposed of user ā39ā!
Then he laid almost completely flat on the floor to avoid a [Fireball], immediately got up, and using [Swift], arrived right in front of the mage that had shot the [Fireball].
The mage seemed frozen due to surprise by Heejaeās sudden appearance. This moment when the mage was unable to react decided their fate.
Shocking! User āHeejaeās double kill! ā¦ā¦ It seems that user āLidiā has become a cold corpse.
The fighter who was next to him belatedly sent a punch with a gauntlet, but Shin Heejae avoided the attack by jumping and while airborne, swung his spear downwards as if it was an axe. The sound of a āWhackā!ā was clearly heard through the headset.
Brilliant! User āHeejaeā has once again removed another user, āHanyoungiā. Crazy triple kill achieved!
The time taken to kill these three was only 1 minute. The child summoner closest to Shin Heejae turned away and ran, as if frightened.
Of course, that was a foolish decision.
Unbelievable. User āHeejaeā, today is your day! āApricotā was unable to resist your attacks and collapsed!
The alchemist, who saw the scene, gave up running away and summoned a rock golem to confront him. But Shin Heejae, who jumped on the huge arm wielded by the golem, brutally cut down the alchemist hiding behind it.
It is a scary state of affairs right now. User āHeejaeās attack has again hit the mark. User āLuluā has died..
As he meets the conditions of āThe Slaughter of the Battlefieldā, for 10 minutes, the attack of user āHeejaeāās skills will increase by 10%!
In the end, the Shin Heejae that had succeeded in killing 5 people in less than 3 minutesā¦ā¦.
Everyone // Party // Clan // Friend // Whisper
[Everyone] [Heejae: lolololololololololć _ć v]
[Everyone] [Heejae: amazing, right?]
While enjoying the victory, he started being annoying.
Honestly, instead of seeming amazing, he seemed more like a jerk, butā¦ā¦, even if he did such acts, no one could come at him, because he succeeded in killing 5 enemy players in a row and received the buff āThe Slaughter of the Battlefieldā.
In [Arcadia]ās PVP content, if a player successfully kills 5 enemy players in a row, the game would give them a special buff that dramatically increases their attack power.
Itās pretty much impossible to get this buff, but Shin Heejae, after meeting the buffās conditions with ease, started walking towards Siben. I saw Sibenās clear nervousness, and felt a little sorry for him.
āThis bastard reallyā¦ā¦, does play well.ā
While Shin Heejae was approaching, Siben seemed to be busy being assisted by and receiving Yuvenās buffs.
Of course, our side had already finished buffing, so I threw a [Waterball] over the head of Yuven, who was diligently applying buffs. Because they moved to avoid my attack, one of the buffs that they were casting was canceled.
They rampaged and cursed.
Everyone // Party // Clan // Friend // Whisper
[Everyone] [Yuven: shit your manners are really dirty]
āWhat are they saying.ā
Youāre not some magical girl, do you perhaps want me to wait until youāre done with the transformation?
While laughing at what Yuven said, I kept interrupting their buffing. When a specific skill is starting to be casted, if the caster moves even a little bit, the buff will not be executed and instead be canceled. That was exactly what I was after.
Eventually, out of the 8 essential buffs, Yuven could only apply 5, and Shin Heejae began to run towards the two hesitating people.
[Swift]
Shin Heejae began to run with a frightening momentum.
Gauging the rapidly decreasing distance between Heejae and Yuven, I also, while leaving a bit of a time difference, started following the character [Heejae].
Meanwhile, I wasnāt sure if Siben and Yuven made the decision to abandon their lingering attachment to the rest of the buffs, but Yuven suddenly stepped in front of Shin Heejae. Sibenās class is affiliated with magic, so using skills requires some time, and it seemed that Yuven had moved to buy him that time.
[Reverse Turn]
As expected, Yuven swung the staff horizontally in a wide arc, and a red light emerged.
If hit with that skill, a player gets a debuff in which the direction key input is reversed, and when a character who is running forward well suddenly starts moving backwards, usually people are bound to stutter.
However, Shin Heejae took exactly two steps back, then as if he adapted, started running backwards and continued rushing towards Yuven.
Should I say I could feel the gap? The characterās pose was like something one would see on a sports field at dawn, like a middle-aged runner clapping back and forth, butā¦..
āMaybe itās because heās youngā¦ā¦. his reaction speed is insane.ā
To be honest, if it were me, I wouldnāt have been able to react and run the other way in 1 second, so I was jealous of his reaction speed.
I didnāt know if Yuven had the same feelings as me and was taken aback, but they didnāt attack for a while, then soon came to their senses and started again.
[Waterball]
[Divine aura]
Of course, at that time, I also didnāt stay still and immediately applied a skill on Heejae that had a āMagic Immunityā effect.
Normally I would block it with a shield, but donāt I have the best staff on the server. When I calculated, if I have this staff, thereās an effect that increases the efficiency of āImmunityā significantly.
Usually, when immunity rises, damage decreases at a fixed rate. It was a bit of a gamble, but as expected, Shin Heejaeās HP fell by a very tiny amount.
In other words, successful defense.
It seemed like Shin Heejae was interested in the [Divine Aura] shielding, and directly asked me with his microphone.
āThis, isnāt this Divine Aura?ā
Everyone // Party // Clan // Friend // Whisper
[Clan] [Sesam: yeah, immunity 50% attached to the staff]
āAh? Ohā¦ā¦. seems like thatās possible?ā
Even though Shin Heejae only explained it up to there, I wasnāt sure if he understood right away but he seemed to be surprised. Soon he started flattering me in the kind of way that made me shrug my shoulders.
āNoona is really a geniusā¦ā¦.ā
āā¦ā¦.ā
āLook at how clumsy Yuven is.ā
āā¦ā¦.ā
āStarting from tomorrow, all the server members will copy noona.āā
āKukā¦ā¦!ā
I tried to resist my laughter by blocking my smiling mouth, but honestly, my mood was really good. The most famous guy in [Arcadia] is praising me on a livestream being watched by thousands of peopleā¦ā¦.
Iāve seen Shin Heejaeās broadcasts quite a lot so I know his personality well. He teases others, but itās rare for him to acknowledge them.
Maybe thatās why I felt more proud. In addition, some of the viewers in Heejaeās livestream praised how Iām a genius while Iām already at the mercy of Heejaeā¦..
āIām starting to get full of myselfā¦ā¦.ā
For this feeling, is why I kind of started to want to be friends with streamers? Anyway, honestly, I felt very good, soā¦ā¦.
[Clan] [Sesam: If immunity is raised, damage is probably reduced by 0.5% every 1%%]
I attempted to chat and explain what I learned as Heejae was hit, but suddenly Yuven rushed in, so I focused and quickly erased it.
Everyone // Party // Clan // Friend // Whisper
[Clan] [Sesam: ć .ć v]
And coolly, I finished it there.
When Shin Heejae asked me if I copied him, I was a little upsetā¦ā¦, I was going to curse, but I just held it in.
* * *
āNoona, I think Siben is quitting. I heard there was an account that appeared on Mania.ā
And naturally, the siege was won.
I was, of course, the main player in the victory. This is because in PVP, no matter how much Yuven or Siben attacked, because I developed the infinite, fraudulent method [Divine Aura] that no one usually uses, they were unable to defeat Heejae.
Yuven also copied [Divine Aura] a bit late, but as they didnāt have [Atilica of Wisdom Great One Staff], the āimmunityā had little effect, and Siben eventually had his neck cut off by Shin Heejaeās spear as he wasted time changing his skill tree.
Perhaps this act caused Siben and Yuven to separate, as Yuven changed their nickname to Minbyul. Maybe the clan also went out, because they went to another one.
Anyway, not only Minbyul, but that day after the siege, [Argo] suddenly had 20 clan members leave a day, and now in [Argo], apart from Siben, there was no one left.
And the downfall of [Argo] caused me to feel a complicated appreciation.
āI was also screwed like thatā¦ā¦.ā
I donāt have any good feelings towards Siben, but strangely, should I say Iām uncomfortable since I was reminded of my past situationā¦
Come to think of it, Siben and I really are alike. I know that Siben also spent a lot of money preparing for this siege.ā¦. Putting money in a game that didnāt have any effect, I suddenly felt emotional as I remembered my old feelings in my past.
Everyone // Party // Clan // Friend // Whisper
[Party] [Sesam: if i were siben iād stab you]
āIāll let you stab me, so want to meet?
Everyone // Party // Clan // Friend // Whisper
[Party] [Sesam: lol]
Instead of answering, I moved the character and hit the bastard on the head with the staff.
T/N: Did Siben do nothing during the whole battle???? Apart from coolly blowing apart the castle gate, I mean. Yuven be carrying, no wonder they separated ā anyway, translating the first part of this chapter really gave me LoL vibes (But more brutal). I can hear the announcer in my head right now. So many slang terms, hence all the footnotes, but worth it haha. I tried to hide some of the less important ones.
