8 – Nightfall – First Broadcast (6)

‘Strong.’

Watching Ariandel wielding a huge greatsword with one hand, that was exactly what Eugene thought.

Before fighting someone else, the first thing Eugene does is to make an estimate of the opponent.

Giving a quote means collecting information about the other party and establishing countermeasures.

Because you need to know how much strength your opponent has, what skills they have, and what habits come out when you go into battle, so you can guarantee victory.

In Eugene’s eyes, it was arrogant to talk about victory when he didn’t know anything about his opponent.

In the past, he knew countless strong men who, despite having much stronger skills than their opponents, gave up their lives just because they were careless.

And from Eugene’s eyes, Ariandel was strong.

To the extent that I can’t even compare to the werewolves I dealt with earlier.

That’s why I felt my heart pounding beyond the level of excitement.

After returning from another world, I thought I would never have a chance to fight to the death with someone again.

Although it was an illusion and a fake, he was infinitely happy to have the opportunity to fight such a powerful enemy that made his heart beat a little bit.

“Please bear with me for a long time. It’s been a long time since I’ve had a fight, so I want to have some fun….”

“Damn it.”

Shhh!

At the same time as Eugene fired his sword at Ariandel, Ariandel also wielded a greatsword to block his attack.

Kaaang!

Sparks fly in the air, and each other’s weapons bounce in different directions in an instant.

From the outside, it looked like they were splitting the blow perfectly equal, but that wasn’t the case.

Awesome.

Eugene smiled bitterly in his heart as he felt his hand tingle as he had just deflected Ariandel’s greatsword.

‘As expected… As expected, the difference in basic strength is too great.’

Now I realize what Winter’s advice meant when he said that the spec gap between the current Eugene and Ariandel was too extreme.

Just now, Eugene didn’t block his attack by swinging his sword.

It wasn’t blocked, it was spilled. It had to be.

It was because right before their weapons collided, he realized that the power of the greatsword Ariandel wielded far exceeded his expectations.

If he had blocked the opponent’s attack from the front instead of letting it slip away, Eugene’s body would have split in half along with the sword he was holding.

‘Is this why the tutorial said that you can never beat Ariandel?’

It is also understandable to assert that clearing is impossible because normally you cannot properly receive even a single blow from the opponent.

It is difficult for this side to even face the opponent normally, but for the other side, just touching this side will kill you instantly.

It was a truly irrational and absurd duel itself.

But.

‘It’s interesting.’

On the contrary, because of that, Eugene felt that this situation was all the more exciting.

I still thought the difficulty of the game was too easy, but wouldn’t it be nice to play something with a penalty like this?

“You haven’t been trained yet, did you receive my attack from the front?”

On the other hand, Ariandel also looks at him with an eye of surprise, as if it was surprising that Eugene blocked his attack.

“Interesting. Was it a existence with much more potential than I expected? Maybe you… It might have been an existence that could fulfill my long-cherished wish.”

– A long-cherished wish? What else is that? Did Ariandel even say something like that?

– What kind of golden goblin is Winter brother? Every time I play the game, something new pops out hahahahaha

Viewers were excitedly posting comments about Ariandel’s line again, but the current Eugene wasn’t even looking at the comments.

Because his mind was only focused on blocking Ariandel’s attack.

Kaang! Kaaang!

Eugene’s sword and Ariandel’s greatsword collided countless times in the air, resounding incessantly in all directions.

A blow filled with murderous intent that each other says they cannot acknowledge each other’s existence.

To the extent that the flames created by the collision of each other’s attacks filled the room, the two of them were fighting tightly without backing down an inch.

But even for a while, viewers who were looking at all of this from a third person’s point of view were able to notice a certain fact.

– Umm… No matter how I look at it, I think Winter oppa is at a disadvantage.

– At some point, it seems that you are only focusing on blocking Ariandel’s attack, rather than attacking the opponent.

– I can’t help it. The difference in specs between the two is too great. What can I do?

From noble mtl dot com

That’s right.

I was being pushed.

At first glance, they seemed to be of the same class, but upon closer inspection, you can see that Ariandel is wielding a greatsword leisurely, while Eugene is struggling to block the other’s attack.

It was unbelievable that the greatsword that Ariandel wielded was the size of a man’s torso, and it was a weapon that was both swift and powerful.

And Ariandel wields such a weapon freely with his old, dwarfed body.

In the midst of the offensive, reminiscent of a storm, there seemed to be nothing Eugene could do except block the enemy’s attack to minimize damage.

But.

Zeuong-!

Eugene’s sword didn’t budge at all, and he was blocking all of Ariandel’s attacks.

Eugene was not broken.

Muscle strength, agility, reflexes, everything is lacking compared to the opponent.

Unless you bring the original body, it is impossible to bring out all of Eugene’s powers with the current body embodied as a game avatar.

But even so, Eugene was holding out until the end even in the midst of Ariandel’s attack.

Because he was ‘seeing’ everything that happened in this battle.

Ariandel’s stride, angle of gaze, muscle wriggling, gripping method, even the smallest habit before wielding a weapon.

Observe everything, know everything, and at the end, foresee everything.

That is one of the weapons that Eugene has accumulated and perfected on the battlefield over the past 20 years, ‘combat foreknowledge’.

It is unacceptable that Eugene, who even blocked Kardenac’s offensive, who was the greatest berserker and the greatest berserker of death, could not stop Ariandel’s offensive and his limbs become disheveled!

“Heh heh… Your movements are great. Even though I didn’t mean it, I never thought I’d be able to block the old man’s attack this far. It’s been a long time since I’ve been happy to see a new Hunter.”

Ariandel stopped her indiscriminate attacks on Eugene for a moment, then took a step behind her and opened her mouth.

“But that ends here. Please do not resist in vain. She salutes you… I’ll show you the strongest attack this old man can do.”

Clap!

In an instant, I heard the sound of something engaging inside Ariandel’s greatsword, and then the blade began to vibrate.

– hahahahaha what is that? It’s really scary

– A cutting effect is added to the blade through super-electronic vibration. It is an instant death pattern.

– It’s a pattern that needs to go up to phase 2, but why is it popping out already???

– Could it be that in the tutorial, you can move on to the 2nd phase pattern just by enduring a certain amount of time?

– Today’s broadcast is a real legend. Watch all these things hahahahaha

“Please do not move and stay still. If you go on a rampage, I don’t have the confidence to end it all at once without pain.”

Ariandel spits out arrogant words as if his victory had already been confirmed.

“Try it somewhere.”

When Eugene, who is extremely immersed in this situation, says that as if chewing and spitting out, Ariandel also wields a greatsword with a warm smile like his grandfather next door.

“Then, please die in this blow.”

Poo-Wak!

The next moment, Ariandel’s greatsword was fired at Eugene’s neck at a much faster speed than before.

The speed was so fast that it left a faint solid line in the air.

Suddenly!

The greatsword swung in a semicircle shape cuts through the wall of the room they were staying in like a cake, tearing everything in its path.

Something!

In an instant, an instinct-like intuition strikes Eugene’s mind like lightning.

That attack cannot be blocked, nor can it be avoided!

This feeling is similar to when facing the devil’s attack head-on.

It doesn’t mean that he can’t be stopped just because his ability is lacking.

To be more precise, it’s not just a matter of difficulty, it’s the irrational feeling that the game’s system is forcing him to die.

‘Is it an instant kill?’

No matter how much it is, the manufacturer wouldn’t have prevented players from clearing the game, so there must be some way to systematically prevent this instant buy.

But if there’s a problem, it’s the tutorial section now, and Eugene doesn’t have anything other than the sword he’s holding.

In other words, if things go on like this, Eugene will have no choice but to die from Ariandel’s great sword!

‘I will die.’

Seeing the sight of his greatsword running to slit his throat, Yu-jin gritted his teeth.

He knows that too.

This world is only a game, and even if you die right now, you don’t actually die in real life.

But it was unfair.

Whether real or fake, death is death anyway.

I don’t want to die.

For the past 20 years, he has struggled countless times to survive in that world, and at the end of it, Eugene survived to the end.

Even if it was a fake reality, it was absolutely unacceptable to face death by a death sentence by the system at most!

‘So I win.’

But how? By what means?

With Eugene’s current strength, with the strength of Eugene’s body, he can never defeat Ariandel.

This is not a virtual reality in a game, a space where the rules of the real world apply.

However, even in virtual reality, there is one thing that operates with the same laws as real life.

‘Human thoughts.’

Human thoughts are infinite.

Even if it were light, it would take hundreds of millions of light years to reach the other side of the universe, but in the human imagination, it can reach the end of the universe in just one moment.

Human thoughts are insubstantial, but if the will is concentrated in one place, it becomes a powerful force that can distort the laws of reality in an instant.

The name of that power is mindfulness.

Eugene, who was mere human, was one of the biggest driving forces behind defeating the demon king while still human.

‘Can I use it?’

No, I don’t think hesitating whether I can write it or not.

Intention is the power that arises when the human will goes beyond oneself and reaches the world itself.

So I believe.

I firmly believe that I, right here, can break the limits set by the system, etc., And I do not doubt him!

And-

Poo-Wak!

– ????

– Huh… Crazy…

– Does this make sense???

The fight was over.

In a fleeting moment, everything was decided in one breath.

Eugene’s sword was piercing Ariandel’s heart.
