Chapter 55

“Ah, the more I think about it, the more I get angry.”

Five minutes before the team battle.

Jin Heeyoon gritted her teeth, thinking of Shin Hayul’s words.

Thinking back on his words, they made her angry.

“What? Do whatever we want because they won’t lose? Ha, they must be joking.”

“Relax, Heeyoon. Calm down.”

Unlike Jin Heeyoon, Ma Jinseok, who succeeded in relaxing his anger, calmed her.

“I know it is natural to be angry. But, we have less than 5 minutes before we start. Calm down and focus on this battle.”

“......I know.”

As Ma Jinseok said, she understands with her head that now is not the time to surrender anger to the body.

However, understanding with the head and practicing with the body are different.

She thinks she needs to calm down, but she just thinks about it. Her anger shows no sign of cooling down.

She wants to smack in Shin Hayul’s face now.

“......Ah, I’m really upset. What if they win? Ask me to apologize for saying that he was below standard? What a double standard?”

After making such a huge provocation, is that what they are saying?

“I told you to calm down.”

“I know! I’m gonna calm down!”

Ma Jinseok sighed loudly as Jin Heeyoon seemed to have no intention of calming down at all.

“......We are in trouble.”

Ma Jinseok also looked at the other juniors.

Except for Kang Shinwoo, everyone was in a state of rage like Jin Heeyoon.

It is a natural reaction.

Even Ma Jinseok, who is famous for being cool and calm, exploded in anger.

It was impossible for the other juniors to remain calm.

‘Even though I want to calm them down, I don’t have enough time.’

There are about 2 minutes left before the battle begins.

There is nothing he can do with just 2 minutes.

‘We are completely wrapped up.’

Ma Jinseok clicked his tongue.

It was very uncomfortable that everything seemed to be going according to Shin Hayul’s intention.

‘Then what should I do? It will cause an opposite effect if I try to calm them down any longer.’

If you tell a crying child to stop crying, it will cry more.

Telling them to calm down in this situation would cause an opposite effect.

‘Since it has come to this, it is better to take advantage of Heeyoon’s anger.’

It is true that anger is poison in battle.

However, if you use the poison well, it can be a medicine.

‘Anger is the best doping drug to bring one’s power to the limit.’

A strategy that erases the shortcomings of anger and fully uses the advantages of it.

Ma Jinseok designed a new strategy.

“I’m sorry, but let’s change our strategy with only 2 minutes left before the battle begins.”

Anger makes people lose their peace of mind, and blur their judgment.

This is the shortcoming of the energy source of anger.

What should be done to erase this shortcoming?

The answer is simple.

Just rule out situations that will blur their judgment.

“Heeyoon, don’t think about anything else, but just take away the opponent’s flag.”

Unconditional offensive.

A charge that requires no judgment.

When it comes to playing that role, anger becomes a force, not a poison.

“So, you are telling me to think only about beating them?”

“Yes, you don’t want it?”

“No.”

Jin Heeyoon laughed like a wild animal.

“I like it.”

3 minutes later, the battle began.

“I found the opponent’s flag.”

Jin Heeyoon, who went on the offensive, found the flag of Shin Hayul’s team.

It was a splendid achievement in 5 minutes of the battle.

— Good job. Who’s guarding the flag?

Ma Jinseok’s voice was heard over the radio.

As Ma Jinseok had to think about the balance of offense and defense, it was more important for him to know who was guarding the flag than where the flag was.

“There’s only one person I can see. Ji Soonchan is guarding the flag alone.”

In front of the opponent’s flag, Ji Soonchan was wary of all sides with a serious look on his face.

It doesn’t seem like there are other people around.

— Ji Soonchan alone?

Ma Jinseok was surprised.

Not anyone else, but only Ji Soonchan was entrusted with the defense?

It was an incomprehensible judgment.

— Is there someone hiding around him?

“I don’t know. I don’t think there is.......”

She checked again, but there was no sign of somebody else’s presence around her.

— Be careful. Both of them might be hiding, leaving Ji Soonchan as bait.

However, since the opponent is Shin Hayul and Adella, there is a possibility that they are using a hiding magic that completely hides their presences.

Don’t be careless.

“I will try to attack with as much caution as possible.”

— Okay, please.

After saying that, the radio cut off.

“Let’s go.”

The two people in charge of the offense like Jin Heeyoon nodded.

“Hey, are you guarding this house alone?”

Jin Heeyoon appeared in front of Ji Soonchan.

“Yes, it happened somehow.”

Ji Soonchan replied calmly.

As if he had expected Jin Heeyoon to appear, there was no shaking.

“You knew I was coming?”

“Yes, well.”

In fact, Ji Soonchan knew in advance that Jin Heeyoon would appear like this.

“How?”

“Hayul said. You have a lot of anger, so you won’t be able to control your anger until the start of the battle. It would be awkward for you to defend in that state, so you will definitely attack.”

“.......”

Jin Heeyoon’s eyebrows flinched with annoyance.

“He was expecting me to come, and left you alone to defend?”

“Yes.”

“Why?”

“Why?”

Ji Soonchan shrugged his shoulders calmly.

“Because I can stop you by myself.”

Jin Heeyoon’s middle of the forehead frowned.

“......Birds of feather flock together. You two are the same. You are just as arrogant.”

It was a provocation that would normally have been snorted over, but now it was the best provocation for Jin Heeyoon.

“Similar to Hayul. That is the best compliment.”

Ji Soonchan laughed with a pretty uncomfortable face.

“Ha.”

Jin Heeyoon’s head became hotter.

“Hey, you seem to think that you’ve become a great person since you are with them.”

Flames burned around her.

“Don’t be mistaken. You are an ordinary person.”

Jin Heeyoon.

4 circle user.

Her special magic is fire-attribute magic.

The flames around her seemed to show her fiery temper.

“Hey, why would I be mistaken? I know that well. I’m nothing compared to those two.”

Mana was also boiled around Ji Soonchan.

It fluctuates violently as if responding to Jin Heeyoon’s flames.

“......You know yourself.”

Jin Heeyoon lifted her right hand and unfolded it.

At the moment, the flames were met with a single point.

‘4th circle fire-attribute magic.’

Flame Sniper.

A magic bullet of flame made by condensing the flames as much as possible.

It flew toward the flag behind Ji Soonchan.

Among the 4 circle magics, it is a fire-attribute magic highly evaluated for its power.

One-point breakthrough compression magic, which is the most powerful among the fire-attribute magic. Flame Sniper.

This magic is not a level of magic that a 3rd circle magician can block.

‘It is a futile end.’

Flame sniper will pierce the flag with Ji Soonchan.

Then, it’s over. The victory of the juniors team is confirmed.

But.

Baaaaaaaaaang-!

Contrary to Jin Heeyoon’s expectation, the Flame Sniper could not pierce the flag or Ji Soonchan.

“......Did you block it?”

The unusual octagonal shield in front of Ji Soonchan perfectly blocked the flame sniper’s rush.

Clinnnnnnnnnng-!

The Flame Sniper was blocked by barriers and spun fiercely.

The two magics clashed, and a loud roar rang out.

“Hayul said this.”

Ji Soonchan’s voice rang through the roar.

“You think you are a damage dealer, but you are a tank by nature.”

There was a smile around Ji Soonchan’s mouth.

“My main attribute is non-attribute. I, especially, have exceptional talent for defense magic.”

Magicians have their own main attributes.

Kim Kang-n, the owner of the Blue Magic Tower, has water-attribute magic. James Piller, the owner of the Red Magic Tower, has fire-attribute magic.

Likewise, Jin Heeyoon also has fire-attribute magic.

These main attributes are characterized by low mental power consumption, high power and output.

And Ji Soonchan’s main attribute is non-attribute. He is specialized in defense.

“Your main attribute is defense magic?”

“Yes.”

Fwoo, Fwoosh.......

Soon, the Flame Sniper, which lost all power, scattered and disappeared.

“You told me before? You said I am nothing compared to Hayul and Adella. Yes. I am really nothing compared to Hayul and Adella. But.......”

Ji Soonchan smiled and laughed, full of the meaning of the provocation.

“I think I have enough to compare to you.”

“......You.”

The middle of Jin Heeyoon’s forehead frowned again.

Even more blood rushed to her head.

“Don’t mess with me!”

Jin Heeyoon left her spot.

In line with her, the two also left their spots.

Ji Soonchan was surrounded in an instant.

“Well, can you also block this.......?”

Jin Heeyoon demonstrated her magic in front of Ji Soonchan.

“Let see!!”

Fiery Fist.

4th circle short distance fire-attribute magic that Shin Hayul has used before.

It was the Blast Impaction.

Baaaaaaang-!

Ji Soonchan’s barrier crashed and a terrible explosion happened.

“Ugh.......!”

However, this time, Jin Heeyoon failed to pierce Ji Soonchan’s barrier.

‘Why is it so tough?’

An octagonal barrier that she has never seen before.

It definitely seems to be a 3 circle level output, but she doesn’t know why it is so tough.

‘But, they won’t block all three attacks at the same time. We won!’

She could see her colleagues over both shoulders of Ji Soonchan.

They are going to attack the flag soon. Ji Soonchan alone would not be able to prevent all the attacks.

She was sure that Jin Heeyoon won this time.

But then.

“......16-66. 13-26.”

Ji Soonchan muttered something.

And the next moment.

Slaaaaaaash-!

She heard something cutting through the wind.

The sound of the mana wind cutting through the air.

Jin Heeyoon’s eyes became bigger.

In the distance, two Wind Cutters were flying towards her colleagues.

“Watch out!”

“.......”

At Jin Heeyoon’s cry, the two left their spots at the same time.

A wind-cutter cut through the spots where the two had left.

“16-77.”

Ji Soonchan muttered again.

At that moment, one of the Wind Cutters ran off its track.

The Wind Cutters, which had run off its track, pursued the man who had left the spot.

“Ugh!”

The man hurriedly used the barrier to block the Wind Cutters.

The Wind Cutters that hit the barrier scattered into the wind.

There was a moment of silence.

“......Shin Hayul.”

Wind Cutters running off its track.

This is the magic of Shin Hayul.

“Be careful, everyone! Shin Hayul is hiding around here.”

Jin Heeyoon stepped back and was on alert for now.

‘Where is he?’

Then, she quickly looked around.

An area full of trees and bushes.

Shin Hayul is hiding in between there.

‘Where the hell are you.......’

Jin Heeyoon and the two are on alert.

Again, Ji Soonchan muttered quietly.

“21-83.”

Crunch!

At that moment, there was a sound of a leaf falling behind Jin Heeyoon.

Jin Heeyoon, who sensed the danger, threw herself to the side.

Whoosh-!

A gray sphere swept through the spot where Jin Hee-yoon originally stood and flew high into the sky.

“......Moonlight bomb?”

Moonlight Bomb.

It was the vision magic that Mystic Wi clan boasted.

“Damn it!”

The use of a Moonlight Bomb meant that Adellla was also hiding around here.

Jin Heeyoon stepped back with a face of great embarrassment and shouted at the radio.

“Ma Jinseok! All three of them are here! We need help!”

Looking at Jin Heeyoon, Ji Soonchan muttered unknown numbers again.

“19-32. 6-22.”

A Moonlight Bomb and a Wind Spear rushed toward Jin Heeyoon, who had distanced herself from the two.

“Don’t hide and come out! You cowards!”

Looking at Jin Heeyoon shouting, Ji Soonchan twisted the corners of his mouth.

Support us at bit.ly/3iBfjkV.

* * *

The junior’s camp.

Ma Jinseok was guarding the flag alone.

‘The idea is to reduce our powers by defending together, and then divide the offense and defense. This is their strategy.’

Until a minute ago, there were 4 defenders. At Jin Heeyoon’s request for help, Kang Shinwoo and three other players were sent to the offensive team.

Since there were all three over there, there was no reason for 4 people to keep the flag.

Ma Jinseok also wanted to go to help, but he stayed just in case.

‘It wasn’t a bad strategy. But, they were unlucky. The distance between the two camps is less than 3 minutes.......’

It would have been dangerous if each other’s camps were more than 10 minutes apart.

Jin Heeyoon’s team must have been wiped out before their support arrived.

‘Whatever it is, it’s over.’

The three, including Kang Shinwoo, will join Jin Heeyoon’s team soon.

If that happens, the power difference is doubled by 3:6.

It’s actually the same as winning.

It was then.

Whoosh-!

He heard something flying over him.

The alarm went off on the head of Ma Jin-seok.

‘Attack?’

Immediately, he used a shield to protect the flag.

Baang-!

A Wind Cutter blocked and disappeared by the shield.

‘......Silent assassin?’

The blade of the wind that flies silently.

“You have a good sense.”

There was a voice from the direction the silence assassin had flown.

“Shin Hayul?”

Shin Hayul walked out.

“......How are you here?”

Ma Jinseok’s eyes trembled.

— Damn Wind Cutter! Shin Hayul! Where are you hiding?

Considering the sound heard over the radio, Shin Hayul shouldn’t be here.

How the hell is Shin Hayul here?

“Well.”

The voice came through the in-ear Shin Hayul was wearing.

— 11-22.

Shin Hayul moved mana according to Soonchan’s voice.

“How am I supposed to be here?”

Shin Hayul’s smile widened.
