Chapter 86 I’m One Of His Fans
…
Few seconds before the explosion. Whitie broke through the blockade of the ghost soldiers and release roar towards Shin’s direction. Then a golden embryo suddenly covered Shin’s entire body. This is Whitie’s new skill.
‘Pet Skill: Holy Blessings’

———————
BOOOM!!!
A powerful explosion exploded above Shin’s head and planning to devour him, unfortunately it is blocked by the golden barrier surrounding Shin. But he still received a massive damage due to it.
-30 500
The pupils on Shin’s eyes suddenly contracted when he saw the damage dealt by the explosion. “What the F*ck!? And that damage is reduced to 10% of the total! If that was the case, then I’m really is dead if I was directly hit by that spell.”
After that explosion, all of the skills in Shin’s action return back to being available. Then he immediately sprung in action when he regain his freedom.
The [Yamato] suddenly become ablaze with a purple flame. Then Shin swing it forward, sending a powerful sword wave that is coming straight towards the ‘Shadow Elder Shaman’ and devouring all the ghost soldiers on its path.
‘Slayer Skill: Eclipse Slash’
Whoosh!
Tegrin immediately disregard the idea of casting another spell. It immediately raise its staff to blink away from its current position, and reappeared ten meters to its right.
Shin on the other hand immediately use the ‘Wolf King’s Hunt’ at the farthest ghost soldier 10-meters away from him and nearest at Tegrin’s current position.
After that, Shin swiftly turn his body around as he thrust the [Yamato] forward while rushing towards the ‘Shadow Elder Shaman’s’ direction.
‘Extra Skill: Sword Rush’
Swoosh!
Tegrin use another blink to put more distance away from Shin who is coming towards it. The ‘Shadow Elder Shaman’ appear ten meters away from Shin’s front. But Shin use another skill through a Combat Technique.
‘Basic Combat Technique: Second Drive’
During the dash of the ‘Sword Rush’ skill, a huge boar spirit suddenly enfolded Shin’s body before he started accelerating forward and dragging all the monsters that is blocking his path.
Dururug!
‘Equipment Skill: Boar’s Assault’
Tegrin summon a wall made of black stone blocking Shin’s path and preventing him from going onward.
Shin forcefully cancel the Skill before leaping upward. Then he do a four consecutive kicks in the air, taking him into a higher altitude.
‘Legacy Skill: Mondi’s Jump’
Pa! Pa! Pa! Pa!
At the third midair jump, Shin already reached the top of the black stone wall, then he used the fourth jump to do a superman flip in the air as he leap over the wall.
And when he is on the other side, Shin’s body suddenly become heavy as he descend towards the ground with an unstoppable force.
‘Equipment Skill: Barbaric Decent’
Whoosh!
The ‘Shadow Elder Shaman’ hop backwards since its ‘Blink’ Skills are currently in cooldown, unfortunately it didn’t managed to successfully get away from the 3-meter radius impact of the incoming Skill.
BOOOM!!!
-75 875
-74 234
-76 003
…
…
…
Because of the powerful impact of the skill, all the monsters inside the area of effect are either sent flying in the air or smashed on the ground. And ‘Tegrin’ the ‘Shadow Elder Shaman’ belong to the former because it is in the outer part of the radius when Shin descended.
Shin swiftly do a military roll on the ground after his descent. Then he immediately use the momentum of the roll of leap towards ‘Tegrin’ while throwing a powerful downwards slash at the later.
‘Extra Skill: Falling Lightblade’
Swoosh!
-87 890
Bang!
The ‘Shadow Elder Shaman’ was smash on the ground when it is hit by that slash. When Shin’s feet landed on the ground, he immediately twist his body to the right while swinging the sheath on his left hand on the same direction and in a reversehand grip manner.
During the process, the sheath suddenly transformed into a semitransparent longsword, before it become set ablaze.
‘Legacy Skill: Mondi’s Style: Meteor Form’
‘Slayer Skill: Solar Cut’
-84 315
Then Shin use the momentum of that twist to spin his body around before throwing a powerful roundhouse kick at the ‘Shadow Elder Shaman’.
‘Equipment Skill: Paralysis Bite’
Pak!
-5 672(Stunned)
Even though the ‘Shadow Elder Shaman’ have a slightly bigger size, Shin is still able to stun it with the that kick because it is a magic related class which have a very low defense and resistance.
Shin flick his left wrist to change his handgrip on the [Snowstorm Edge]. Then he swiftly brandish both of his swords, creating bunch of grid-like lines surrounding Shin as they intervene with each other.
‘Equipment Skill: Snowstorm Assault’
Suddenly, those grid-like line coincide with each other, as Shin swing the [Snowstorm Edge] and the [Yamato] at the ‘Shadow Elder Shaman’.
This is one of the things that Shin had learned in Freedom Mode. Since he can control the execution of his skill more freely in this mode, he can guide the skill trajectory to his desired location.
-75 789
-76 544
-78 008
-78 635
…
…
…
All of the slashes that should be random were landed at Tegrin’s body due to Shin’s perfect control. And because of the massive damage that it got, the ‘Shadow Elder Shaman’ entered a berserk state and enter the third phase.
BOOM!!!
It send another powerful shockwave, sending everything around it flying away from it. But Shin already anticipated that, his body turned illusionary as he stay still in his current position while becoming unaffected by the shockwave.
‘Slayer Skill: Moonlight Steps’
But there are some things that Shin didn’t expect to happen. Tegrin put the staff on its front, creating a spherical barrier around it. Then all the ghost soldiers suddenly rush towards the ‘Shadow Elder Shaman’, taking Shin a little off guard.
Shin suddenly got a bad feeling about what’s happening. His instincts are telling him that he need prevent these ghost soldiers from getting near the ‘Shadow Elder Shaman’.
Then Shin and his gang immediately sprung in action and started slaughtering the ghost soldiers that are rushing towards Tegrin. Unfortunately, they are still a little too late because there are still few ghost soldiers that managed to broke pass them.
And when those ghost soldiers arrived at Tegrin, they suddenly merged with the barrier. And when they do so, Shin saw the HP of the ‘Shadow Elder Shaman’ started to recover at the visible rate, and it didn’t take long for it to recover half of the total damage that Shin have dealt.
“F*ck! I knew it that this boss is not as simple as it seems, but it looks like this is going to become a little more troublesome.” cursed Shin as he started picking up the pace at slaughtering the ghost soldiers.
When Tegrin removed the barrier, its HP is return back to 95% of its total HP.
Shin release a helpless sigh before saying. “OK, what’s done is done. Let us just start the second round. This time I’m not going to get a little bit careless.”

World Gaming Org. Headquarters.
Carlos went to visit a office of one of the development teams of the Organization. He ignore all the other development personnels, and went straight to the head office.
He directly open the door without knocking on it. After entering the room, he directly went to the middle-aged guy sitting in front of a virtual screen, and throw a file of papers on the table.
The middle-aged man take a quick glance a Carlos before say. “I know that we are quite close, Carlos. But that is not an excuse for you to enter my room without notice.”
“Don’t act that you don’t know why I’m here Troy.” said Carlos as he sat at the sofa beside the middle-aged man.
“What are you talking about Carlos?” said Troy innocently.
Carlos clicked his tounge when he saw Troy’s reaction. “Tsk, stop acting innocent, Troy. I know that you know what am I talking about.”
Troy put both of his hands at the back of his head while crossing his legs on top of the table. “I told you that I don’t know what you are talking about, so stop bothering me, I still have a lot of things that I need to do.”
“Tsk, come on Troy. You made a mess yet you are going to let me clean it up?” said Carlos in an irritated tone.
Troy smirk at Carlos and said. “Do you have an evidence? Don’t accuse me if you don’t have.”
Carlos point at the file of papers that he thrown earlier and said. “Those are the evidence. You are the one that designed that [Ruler’s Equipment Set], and you lead a player to take the special edition of that set. Now tell me, why did you do that?”
“Ah-Ah~?, That is a false claim. You are right about me being the designer of the set, but I didn’t lead him to take the perfect set. That player is the one that managed to discover the way how to complete the entire set.” said Troy while waving his hand index finger.
“Then how can you explain the Cheat Skill that is clipped on one of the equipment skills when the entire set is upgraded into a Gold rank equipment set?” asked Carlos with a fierce glare.
“Hey, Hey~?. I’m out on that issue. ‘AI Chronos’ is that one that made that Skill and not me.” said Troy in an innocent manner.
“F*CK! Don’t give me those ‘System Excuses’! If the System is the one that let that happen, then why are the other [Ruler’s Equipment Sets] didn’t get a Cheat Skill like that!?” said Carlos frustratedly.
“Maybe his set is a special because it is a seven piece equipment set?” said Troy still acting innocent.
Carlos reach his limit and said. “I don’t have enough time to play this game, Troy. The equipment set of that specific player is programmed that way! If the set is upgraded into Gold Rank, then one of the skills of the equipment set with become a Cheat Skill.” 𝐛𝗲𝐝𝐧𝗼𝐯𝐞𝐥．𝐜𝐨𝗺
Carlos pause for a moment to calm himself down before continuing. “I’m not here to sue you for what you have done, since I’m already involved in this mess when I cleaned up the trouble that that player have done. I just want to hear why did you do that.”
Troy raise both of his hands, indicating that he admitting defeat. “Alright, Alright ~?. You win. I did that to help that kid a little. Just a little, OK?”
The Carlos raise one of his brows after hearing that. “Your not answering my question properly.”
Troy taught for a moment before replying. “Hmm… Let’s just say that I’m curious about his future prospects, especially when he finally caught up with the leading players of the game. That is way I’m helping him to reach them a little faster.”
Carlos didn’t look being contented at that reply and asked. “Do you honestly think that I’m going to believe that?”
“Hmm… You can also say that I’m one of his fans.” added Troy when he saw the expression on Carlos’ face.
The corner of Carlos’ mouth suddenly twitch after hearing that.
