The Tutorial Is Too Hard

Chapter 179



< Tutorial 31st Floor (6) >

The festival of various magics in front of me.

The key is breaking past this and doing the most damage to the demons in front of me.

The holy sword went around the volley of magic and will take the small fry off to the side, so I just need to deal with the demons in the middle.

The main perpetrator of these magics and also those that are recovering the quickest from the effects of the explosion.

I swung the soul sword filled to the brim with aura and I cleared up a fireball coming towards me.

Before the fireball lapsed, it exploded as if it were natural.

As I was expecting it, I lowered my upper body to evade it and kept on running.

It wasn’t just one or two magic spells that were flying at me.

There were tens just in my view.

The would be magic hidden behind other magic, and those that were hidden through special means from sight.

It’s been a while.

Memories of the 1st and 2nd floor popped up.

I really thought I was going to die then.

Obviously, there is a vast difference between the me then and now.

But there’s also a vast different between the arrows from then and the magic missiles here.

If I’m hit properly, I’m definitely dead.

If I’m hit, I need to make sure it just grazes me, and sacrifice the parts I don’t need to minimize damage.

I also have a constraint that I need to reach the demons while dodging the magics.

I raised my focus.

It wasn’t as much as the God’s Power of Time Confinement which was closer to time freezing, but I can do something similar with just my concentration all the time.

I located and counted each magic that I could see within the slow moving world.

And I calculated the velocity and course of those magics.

If there was one good takeaway, these magics were unfolded by the demons taken by surprise.

I won’t run into death disguised as life while making my way through the cracks between the magic spells.

I didn’t think they would be able to create a trap on a united front during that short time.

It wasn’t an underestimation of their intelligence.

It was an assessment of the attitude they showed towards me before this battle.

And I trust my judgement.

As soon as I stopped concentrating, the magics flew towards me.

I crouched and lunged forward.

The magics flew dangerously close to my body.

Out of them, the sharp ice spear grazed my arm, but I was fine.

It was bearable.

The next moment, while I was charging at the enemies, I used blink for a step forward.

It was just one step, but the effect was outstanding.

While moving at high speed, using blink made me suddenly stop in place.

In front of me where a web of magic without any sort of gap.

But the magics didn’t reach my body and went off in a separate direction.

This was the one spot that magic wouldn’t touch my body with just enough space for this moment.

In barrage games, the key is to find these points and get to them safely.

I made my way forward again.

The wall of magic evaporated slowly, and a gap appeared.

This is the hard part.

I was already halfway towards the demons from where I began.

Even now, the demons were spewing magic.

The barrage would be thicker as I get closer.

There was a safe route.

But that was a longer path.

If there is a right path, there is a need to take it no matter now dangerous and painful.

A magic that seemed to be of the wind-type was flying towards me at high speed.

To be specific, there was nothing else besides the wind magic flying towards me from the front.

Everything else was aiming towards my escape routes.

If I can force myself through the wind magic, it’s an open road.

Not that its easy.

I don’t know which damn demon cast that magic, but that’s a super high-level magic.

The wind blades were rotating from the magic core in the middle.

It’s basically a drill with blades of wind.

But I need to break through it.

If I go around, it would take too long.

I would be stumbling back, making the path here completely moot.

So, I need to break it.

Using a proper technique is not possible.

I don’t have the minimal amount of time to initiate a technique.

Just before, I was twisting my body with abrupt acceleration and abrupt breaks to make it forward.

It wouldn’t make sense to overwork my magic circuit.

My position is awkward.

I can’t be sure I’ll be able to muster the strength.

Just as I’ve evaded the magic missiles, I need to dodge again after breaking through this.

I need to prepare for that.

And after that as well.

There’s only one way.

[Iron Wall]

[Talalia’s Wings]

I wrapped my body in Talalia’s wings and Iron Wall which raises the defense of my body temporarily.

I haven’t don’t this in a while.

I thought it was something that I wouldn’t have to use again.

I curled my body so that Talalia’s Wings would cover it completely.

I used my arms to cover my chest and head, and legs for my midsection.

And

[Blink]

I used blink to collide straight into the wind magic.

There was no chance of winning colliding against the wind blades.

I slammed against the magic core in the middle with my body.

Right after the collision, there was an explosive sound and shockwave, but I couldn’t feel anything besides a thud.

I didn’t hear or feel anything.

My consciousness shook.

My sight was uneven as though I were drunk, and my hearing was completely dead.

My sense of balance was in danger as well.

I didn’t have a way to know how much damage I took.

But I stood on the ground, and there was a wide-open path in front of me where the extinguished wind magic was.

I ran along the path.

I couldn’t recover the temporarily paralyzed senses.

Hearing, midsection, right shoulder, under the left knee, all of the magic circuit and the ones I couldn’t verify weren’t able to send me information.

The few senses left were whispering untruthful information to me.

The wavering vision and sense of balance.

I felt as though I would end up rolling on the ground from a wrong step.

It would be normal for anyone to lose control of their body and collapse on the ground.

Even ones stronger than me, of higher level, better swordsmanship, and with multiple various skills.

Nobody can run straight in this situation.

But I can.

Because I’m used to it.

I’ve been through the pain and chaos multiple times.

And at the end of the advance, I prepared the next step.

I closed a vast amount of distance between the demons and me.

The things blocking my path weren’t magic missles.

Shields, barriers and trap magics.

I had no intention of breaching each and every one.

I didn’t have the skill.

I’ll just explode everything.

The demons behind the magic, as a set.

I made a diagonal slash with the soul sword while keeping my running pace.

What does it matter if my body isn’t normal, or if I can’t feel the mana along the magic circuit.

The trained swordsman should know how to make a precise slash with their eyes closed.

I can also, without being able to feel anything from the magic circuit, can finish my skills.

“Die in flames you shits!”

Light Blade(光剣), 2nd form – Slash.

[The God of Light is Cheering!]

The maximum force I could output unfolded right in front of the demons.

Even if they made magic shields and barriers, I definitely poured enough destructive power to surpass it.

The space filled with ominous black and red was filled with a white flash I crerated.

The light blade’s 2nd form, slash.

It looks simple, but once you get into the details it’s not a simple technique.

The light blade’s stab creates light and heat through the friction of aura and sends the explosive energy along with the one-point stab towards my front.

And the slash is a continuous stream of energy.

Unlike the stab which creates a flash and explosion for one moment, the slash needs the energy to be maintained from start to end.

The line, not a point, radiates a larger area with energy.

It spreads it over a larger area, but because it makes use of the fast blade movement and holds the energy instead of exploding it over a specified amount of time, the impact becomes greater.

If you hear until here, it’s a magnificent technique.

It’s more amazing when you use it yourself.

It explains its own might when you look at how it sent Olphon and the demons besides him to hell equally.

Just that the difficulty of employment is too high.

It’s hard enough holding the energy at its zenith, but you also have to swing it.

In the process, you have to govern the energy from going wild when it is amplified.

You also can’t forget to send it forward while you’re holding the energy.

And making sure it all heads forward while the aura particles go every which way.

It’s an insane difficulty.

But no matter what happened, I succeeded again this time.

The result was the giant craters and the tens of thousands of tokens to prove it.

The tokens Olphon and the demons under him have gathered.

From seeing the mountains of tokens, you could fathom how many demons they exploited and killed.

Good for me.

Thanks to that, I don’t have to go around collecting, and can just gather the tokens I need here.

[You have cleared Tutorial, Hell Difficulty 31st floor.]

[All status ailments and injuries will be healed.]

[You have gained 6000 points for clear rewards.]

[You have gained 6000 Points for first clear rewards.]

[There are multiple Gods showing interest. Gained 7200 Points.]

[There are multiple Gods showing negative reception. Minus 1300 Points.]

[All of the Gods in the The Hundred God Temple are observing you.]

[A small number of Gods wish to gift you a special skill instead of giving you extra rewards.]

[Current Vote Poll: Agreement 1 vote. Disagreement 0 vote.]

[You have acquired Aura Mastery Lv.3.]

[Aura Master lv2. has been integrated into Aura Masters Lv.3.]

The clear message appeared.

After finishing the battle, while I was gathering the tokens the dead Olphon and demons dropped into my pocket’s, the message suddenly appeared.

The travel portal appeared beneath my feet.

I first checked the extra rewards.

It’s been a while since I’ve received a skill as an extra reward.

It was unexpected since I’ve been getting points or useless items of late.

Aura Mastery Lv.3

The magic circuit skill had turned into Aura Master Lv.1 after surpassing skill level of 30.

Not so long ago, I had raised Aura Master skill to level 2.

And I’ve received the level 3 this time as a gift.

…to be gifted a skill just one level higher.

The fuck is this.

Stingy.

If you’re gonna gift, gift big.

The vote results for extra rewards were one yes and zero nos.

So, put it in another way, one god wanted to gift an extra reward, and they agreed to it themselves.

And since nobody disagreed, it passed.

Who was that, the agreement?

[The God of Light announces it was him!]

It was the God of Light.

I’ve gotten an offer to become the apostle of the God of Light after clearing the 26th floor.

I didn’t know much about the God of Light, so I waited to hear KiriKiri’s advice before making a decision.

[The God of Light announces it was him!]

It seems that he wanted to appeal himself because of that, and gifted the skill as an extra reward.

If he’s gonna gift, why not go big and gift a God Power.

[The God of Light announces it was him!]

Argh, I got it. I KNOW.

I saw it. I SAW THE MESSAGE!

Stop it!

[The God of Light announces it was him!]

[The God of Light announces it was him!]

[The God of Adventure is displeased.]
