Acquired the Scam Rune in the Academy

.

Its posture was already a familiar form I had seen before.

“Damn it! Another water magic attack!”

“Avoid it…!!”

Physical attack, water magic, physical attack again.

And now, another water magic attack.

Although the attack pattern itself had become regular…

Desperately, this time the direction of the attack was different.

“It’s coming towards the dealers!”

“Damn it! Warrior team, shields up and forward!”

The urgent voice of a leader, a B-grade Holder could be heard.

This time, Swirl Leviathan’s attack wasn’t aimed at the tanks in the front.

It was directed at the dealers who had dealt it severe damage.

It was a long-range attack targeting the dealers in the rear.

‘Solid defense…!!’

I, too, immediately lifted my [Goblin’s Bronze Shield] and stood in front.

This attack couldn’t be blocked with just shields, like the previous physical attack.

Derived skill from [Shield] gained during battle, [Iron Wall Defense]. Now was the time to use the skill I had saved.

Klang- Klang- Kwang-!!

“Ugh, aghh…!!”

“Save me!!”

Swirl Leviathan’s water projectiles screamed as they pierced the surroundings.

All the warrior team Holders, including me, utilized their [Shields], but…

Not many could block the water projectiles.

When I infused magical power into [Goblin’s Bronze Shield], it could block magical attacks as well.

Furthermore, I had the special attribute ‘Water Resistance,’ making my defense slightly better.

However, not all the Holders responsible for protection had such special conditions.

Most of the C-grade Holders couldn’t block magical attacks and were mostly killed instantly, while the B-grade Holders were barely withstanding the attacks using their own toughness.

‘I can’t keep using this… ‘

My shield wasn’t completely intact either.

Although I managed to block its magical water attack by infusing magic into it, the attack was too powerful and caused holes in some places.

The toughness of the shield had gone from ‘normal’ to ‘depleted.’

It needed repairs.

Furthermore, [Iron Wall Defense] had a cooldown of one hour.

I couldn’t use my core defense skill in battle anymore.

In the subsequent attacks from Swirl Leviathan…

Blocking them with [Shield] seemed difficult.

“Here it comes again…!!”

Perhaps the Swirl leviathan was feeling the end was near, it prepared its last struggle.

Swirl Leviathan launched another water projectile.

This time, there were more of them.

I quickly turned my head to look at Jeong Seon-young .

She was already unleashing her defensive magic.

Using a magic that raised ice walls to block the water projectiles pouring from all directions.

‘Now I understand why she said I could be her protector.’

It was hard to believe that she had just used her ultimate skill.

After using an ultimate skill, an enormous amount of magical power and mental strength would be depleted. So, it was surprising that she immediately followed up with another spell.

An A-grade Holder of the mage class.

Among them, she was close to being a top-tier expert in handling [Freezing].

“Huff…!!”

I couldn’t just stand there and watch.

Jeong Seon-young was protecting others from the water projectiles because I had defended her with my [Shield].

If my defense line were to be breached…

Her ice wall would end up facing my direction.

And then, someone wouldn’t receive protection.

If I just stood there, other Holders could die or get injured.

I had to do my part too.

I put away my shield and drew my sword.contemporary romance

The [Well-Forged Longsword] that Choi Yoo-min handed me.

Since the usefulness of my shield had diminished, the only thing I could use now was my sword.

‘I’ve never succeeded with this before… ‘

Although it was a water projectile infused with magical power, it resembled a thrown weapon in shape.

It flew from a distance and had a powerful impact corresponding to the distance.

And the only technique I knew to block such thrown weapons with a ‘sword’ was…

‘I can do it. No, I have to do it.’

Looking at the water projectiles, I concentrated.

As learned and remembered.

Moving like a dance, I held my sword smoothly.

The finesse of [Agile Agility] and [Water Sword Technique].

I infused them into my body and my sword.

All to repel the water that would destroy everything.

But to me…

There was another water that could repel all of this…

“Flow.”

And then…

The extraordinary figure I saw from Professor Kim Myeong-hyun.

A quick movement, but it felt like a single, gentle wave.

That technique had now been perfectly incorporated into my sword.

[Even in the face of a massive tsunami, you will become one with the water, allowing it to flow around you. With the Water Sword Technique, you can cut through anything and block anything. Your understanding of Water Sword Technique has increased dramatically.]

[The level of the rune has increased.]

[You have obtained the ultimate skill of Water Sword Technique Rune, ‘Water Sword Dance’. Due to the acquisition beyond the limit, the skill usage is limited.]
