Saved a Heroine From the Brink of Death

48. Fox Hunt (3)

#48. Fox Hunt (3)

“… Her. Are you going to send it back with your bare hands?”

“That technology… Isn’t that a technique used by the elderly?”

“Could the old man Mu-bong Cheon have even taken in a disciple….”

Before anyone knew it, the name of Juserin had disappeared from the minds of the observers.

Cynthia.

She was only her name.

“A mediocre cadet like that understands and deals with a group of people who can’t even properly understand advanced heroes, no, even top-tier heroes. .”

Cynthia continued to show her good form against Ju Celine.

But that was all she was.

She is a talented person who showed a good side. Talent with potential for investment… That was it. He wasn’t such a talent that large guilds could turn on with fire in their eyes.

However, from the moment she slashed the flames with her bare hands, she was so strongly imprinted in people’s minds that she was not forgotten.

“Have you developed a class trait that temporarily enhances your talents? Then the ability you’re showing now makes sense….”

“Even if you can temporarily use Chen-senpai’s martial arts, what is it? And… Seeing that her hand glowed and changed, it seems that the attribute was activated.”

Seo Hak-jin, deputy guild leader of Shinhwa Guild, one of the top 10 guilds in Korea, was genuinely impressed.

It was a great feat just for one academy cadet to reproduce part of Cheon Mu-bong’s martial arts.

‘The first thing I showed you was… Ewha grafting, the next thing… Is the water all in one? Both of them are a group described in the very beginning, but they are not at the level that a mediocre cadet can perform.’

Seo Hak-jin recognized the group that Cynthia had recreated. It was because he had sparred with Chen Mu-feng before and she had actually seen his martial arts. She also got a chance to see Cheonuimubong as she was recognized for her martial arts talent.

And he failed miserably.

Because of that, I was able to know what kind of group Cynthia had spread and what the exact name of that group was.

She knew how nonsensical it would be to unfold it. He was able to imitate only one graft graft after hanging on for several years.

It was an imitation, not maturity. The difficulty of martial arts possessed by Cheonuimubong was truly not human.

‘It’s a ridiculous talent. Even if you borrowed the power of a characteristic….’

Mubong Cheon’s talent is unmatched.

No one can surpass his martial arts talent, and there is no one to compare him to.

This evaluation was an opinion that everyone who knew martial arts and Cheonmu-bong agreed with.

However, since he reproduces at least a part of the Cheonuimubong group perfectly, everyone has no choice but to roll their eyes.

“… Cynthia. We have to recruit them into our guild somehow.”

“Han So-min, assistant guild leader. Shinhwa Guild was thinking of recruiting Cadet Cynthia first, right?”

“Senior Seo. Isn’t that too much? I remember giving it to you last time.”

“After giving in, let’s do it one more time.”

“… People say that if a favor is repeated, it’s a right, but I didn’t know that senior Seo was that kind of person, right? No matter how great the prestige of the Shinhwa Guild is, this seems to have gone beyond the limit. Can I take it as an opinion to fight once?”

Blue Dragon’s Han So-min was not weighed down by Seo Hak-jin’s momentum, but rather struck back.

And one more person intervened between the two.

“What are you talking about? Blue Dragon and Myth. Aren’t there a lot of good people on both sides? Please yield to our guild this time. I’m still suffering from a talent shortage these days… It would be perfect if such a talented person came to our guild.”

“Hmm? What did you say now? Maybe it’s because the guild member of the guild that just entered the TOP 10 is talking, I can’t hear it well.”

“It was said that it is not good to go to a place where there are old people who need to wear hearing aids.”

When Kim Jin-tae of the Black Moon Guild turned Seo Hak-jin around, Han So-min laughed and chimed in.

“hahahahaha. That’s right. Let’s leave the elderly alone and talk among ourselves. Guild leader Kim Jin-tae. But isn’t it better to have a conversation with someone who can communicate rather than someone who can’t communicate?”

“I see. Han So-min, deputy guild leader. It sure is convenient! hahahaha!”

The two were talking about how to continue a fair competition while ignoring Seo Hak-jin’s spirited spirit.

If Seo Hak-jin did not give up until the end, there was a willingness to choose that the two join forces and sign a contract as a joint member.

But in the meantime, one of the other observers asked them.

“… Wouldn’t it be ridiculous if someone already signed a contract with you?”

“… Could it be?”

“That’s right… Riga.”

Han So-min and Kim Jin-tae denied the observer’s words, but contacted the guild’s headquarters and asked them to confirm whether there was a contract with Cynthia right away.

Then I heard the shocking news.

There was a place that had already signed a contract with cadet Cynthia.

***

Juserin was cornered.

She stepped back as she moved outside the red spirit system she created, but Cynthia slashed her sparks and drove her to the corner of her test site.

“Come on. Goodbye then. I can’t wait to see how high the rankings will go if I catch you~”

“I think it will end like this… ? It’s not over yet!”

“Oh! It’s a surprise! You were surprised.”

Cynthia’s pillar of fire soared from where she was. She couldn’t help but backstep, backing up behind her.

Jucerin ran while covering Cynthia’s vision while spraying red salt. However, Cynthia kept her in check by predicting her route and shooting arrows at her.

‘Anyway, it’s over as long as you properly hit the vitals. All I have to do is break the magic that surrounds my body.’

Two steps forward. It’s over in those two feet.

Cynthia drew her bow.

“Ha!”

Pan! As I fired her arrows, she sighed. The arrow hit Jucerin’s stomach with a sound. At the same time, a crackling sound was heard as her magic power was broken.

“This is the end… !”

Ju Se-Rin completely gave up protecting her body with her magical powers and focused on her attacks as she ran toward herself. It seemed that she, too, was about to put an end to this attack.

‘I’m faster. As it is… I win… !’

Cynthia quickly picked up her arrow again and drew her bowstring.

‘One last shot!’

It was the moment he was about to strike the final blow.

Cynthia felt her powers draining from her body along with her exhaustion. She wasn’t the only one. The speed of her clear hair was turning hazy again.

[ ‘Blessing of Balance (lv.0)’ Has ended. ]

‘Why is this now… ? Ah… ! Her magic power has run out… ! Why, at a time like this… !’

She remembered that her Blessing of Balance drained her own magic power. The end of her blessing of balance was the same as the meaning that her own magical energy had been exhausted.

At this rate, even if she shoots arrows, she won’t be able to finish Ju Se-rin.

‘Huh, that’s a pity. I wish I could have endured a little longer… No, no. I was lucky to have come this far. If you want more luck here, you have no conscience. It’s not bad to end it like this.’

Cynthia felt satisfied when she thought she had hit her mace hard enough on a fire fox named Ju Celine. All that remains is to finish the match.

‘Still, I can’t collapse. It can’t end like this.’

But she couldn’t just fall down. If you fall now… Doesn’t it seem like you’re losing with all your strength?

In a split second, Cynthia shook her head. She and she drew the best conclusions.

‘The appearance of losing… Because it’s important. The original purpose… Because I’m going to defeat that fire fox… I have to humiliate you as much as possible!’

She used up all of her mana, but she still had enough of her stamina.

After 0.2 To 3 seconds, Ju Se-Rin’s sword reaches her own neck. But her bow is also pointed at her.

Cynthia moved her mouth as if nothing was wrong.

“I will abstain!”

Cynthia shouted, and at the same time, Jucerin and her body stopped. The referee appeared and stopped the two bodies with magic.

And when the two stopped….

Ju Se-rin’s sword did not reach Cynthia, and Cynthia was in a position to finish Ju Se-rin with her bow at any moment. Unless her eyes were blind, she could tell.

It was a narrow difference, but it was also a difference that could not be overturned.

In other words, it was as if Cynthia looked after Jucerin. This was Cynthia’s intention.

Moreover, because of the flames that spread around her, even the instructors couldn’t confirm how much magic power Cynthia had left.

“… Now that she has withdrawn, she will end the match, but can I ask her why she gave up? If she hadn’t abstained, you would have won. Not just me, but most of the instructors think so.”

The instructor couldn’t hold back her curiosity and asked Cynthia.

– Shiaya. Will you do what I say? Then you can definitely f*ck that fire fox!

‘Okay. Do I only trust you, Illien?’

Cynthia nodded and spoke as Illien told her.

“I would have won if I hadn’t withdrawn, but I withdrew because there was a high chance that both would suffer serious injuries. Injuries aren’t scary, but since it’s a match, I thought it was important not to get hurt. I thought it would be better to retreat than to win, considering the wounds, unless it was an impossible situation.”

“… Huh. Cadet Cynthia. I didn’t know she was so thoughtful.”

Cynthia has made herself a great person who is not obsessed with her victory, looking ahead with one conversation.

At the same time, Ju Ce-rin was made into a mean b*tch obsessed with winning.

This perception was successfully lodged in the instructor.

“Certainly as you said. I learned a lot. It’s not a real fight, and it’s not a situation where you have to protect someone, so there’s no need to fight while considering injuries. I know your intentions well. I need to pass this on to other instructors as well. Ha ha To think that such a talented person is in the 201st place. I don’t think this is a problem with the academy’s curriculum. Ah… And Cadet Jucerin.”

“… Yes?”

“I hope that Cadet Ju Celine will also follow the example of Cadet Cynthia. Her skills aren’t everything. Remember that she can become a good hero only when she builds up these attitudes.”

“…… All right.”

Jucerin’s face turned red. She

She won because she was herself, but for some reason she was in a bad mood. No, she was very offended.

“Then let’s end the match with this. Victor! Jucerin!”

The name of the winner of this match appeared on the electronic board.

However, anyone who has seen the entire match will know who the true winner is.

Additionally, in this match, Jucerin received a bad score despite winning, and Cynthia received a high score and her ranking rose dramatically.
