Survival Story of a Sword King - Chapter 125

Skill of The Absolute (1)

Back at the Rocky Mountains, he became tired of seeing the same message whenever he filled his experience requirements.

[The required experience has been met. The level is increeeeaaaasssssiiiiinnnnggg…….]

[sdbukkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk…….]

‘And I always went back to level one.’

It was different now.

[Your level is increasing.]

The sentence was finished properly!

There was even a period!

The messages of the Guideline didn’t end with that.

The screen began to be filled with words.

[The required experience has been met. Your level is increasing.]

[The required experience has been met. Your level is increasing.]

[The required experience has been met. Your level is increasing.]

The same message was repeated countless times.

His level rose swiftly.

10, 20, 30, 40…….

At the same time, another phrase was shown on the left side of his view.

[The ‘Diagonal Cut’ skill has been unlocked.]

[The ‘Reciprocal Stab’ skill has been unlocked.]

[The ‘All-Direction Cut’ skill has been unlocked.]

He also gained skills as fast as he was leveling up.

In addition to low-level skills such as ‘Diagonal Cut’ and ‘All-Direction Cut,’ high-level swordsman skills such as ‘Rupture Annihilation,’ ‘Nine Dragon Attack,’ and ‘Great Pluto Destruction Wave’ were also unlocked!

‘This…’

Han-bin grinned from ear to ear.

‘I am getting paid for all the backlogs!’

His joy lasted for only a moment.

The next message that followed rained on his parade.

[Rapid level increase detected.]

[A non-sequential level increase is against the Guideline code. The increase in level will be canceled.]

Surprised, Ryu Han-bin shouted.

“Hey! I’ve earned tens of billions of experiences! That’s just evil!”

Of course, it wouldn’t change since he had a broken Guideline.

The level that had increased like crazy began to go down like crazy.

[Level increase has been reverted.]

[Level increase has been reverted.]

[Level increase has been reverted.]

Of course, but it wasn’t just his level that was being taken away.

[Your level isn’t enough. The acquisition of the ‘Great Pluto Destruction Wave’ will be canceled.]

[Your level isn’t enough. The acquisition of ‘Nine Dragon Attack’ will be canceled.]

[Your level isn’t enough. The acquisition of ‘Rupture Annihilation’ will be canceled…….]

His level swiftly went back down.

All the skills he acquired had been canceled as well.

[Level…… Shortage…… Acquisition…… Canceled…….]

[Levvvveeeeeelll, Shortaaagggeee, Acccqqquuuiiisssiiitttiiiooonnn…….]

[Legec Berebubu Oksuttalala…….]

The screen was distorted like it was malfunctioning. The text was crushed, and the Guideline flashed.

It was crazy.

Sensitive people would’ve had a hypersensitivity reaction.

‘Is this the way it is?’

Han-bin sighed.

He knew that would happen.

‘Then yes, this is my fate.’

After a while, the Guideline turned off.

Then it turned on again and threw up a normal phrase.

[The required experience has been met. Your level is increasing.]

[Muscle strength, stamina, resilience, and defense have increased by 2.]

[‘Diagonal Cut’ skill has been unlocked.]

[Ryu Han-bin: Swordsman Lv.6

Acquired skills: Stab, Crosscut, Vertical cut, Diagonal cut, Language Communication

Muscle strength 27 (+1,364), stamina 23 (+1,364), resilience 17 (+682), defense 18 (+1,364), fuselage vision 7 (+341), reflex nerves 9 (+341), and explosive power 10 (+341).」

Han-bin laughed in vain.

“Hey, I’m level six?”

The way he leveled up was far too cruel for him to feel happy about it.

There wasn’t much difference between level 5 and level 6.

“Well, the Diagonal Cut was added, but…”

To be honest, he could still use it almost perfectly without it.

No, rather, he would be stronger if he didn’t use the Guideline skills.

“In the end, I leveled up by a notch, and that’s all.”

He was about to turn off the Guideline with a tired look.

Han-bin suddenly frowned.

“Huh?”

It was because one more phrase suddenly popped up at the bottom of the screen.

[Qualification of the right person has been satisfied.]

[Skill of The Absolute, ‘Lord throughout Heaven and Earth,’ has been activated.]

He blinked.

“What’s this?”

* * *

Ryu Han-bin joined the group for the moment.

After Han-bin recovered from the injury through Leon Hart’s healing arts, he checked his status once again.

[Ryu Han-bin: Swordsman Lv.6

Acquired Skills: Stab, Crosscut, Vertical Cut, Diagonal Cut, Language Communication

Skill of the Absolute: Lord throughout Heaven and Earth

Muscle strength 27 (+1,364), stamina 23 (+1,364), resilience 17 (+682), defense 18 (+1,364), fuselage vision 7 (+341), reflex nerves 9 (+341), and explosive power 10 (+341).]

That was for certain.

There was one more skill.

“Skill of the Absolute?”

The name itself was sounded cool.

It was unusual that it was classified separately.

The problem was…

“Why does this swordsman skill have the saying of Buddha out of the blue?”

Lord throughout Heaven and Earth.

That was a saying that Gautama Siddhartha, the founder of Buddhism, had shouted at birth.

At first glance, it might sound like an arrogant cry, ‘I’m the best alone under the sky!’

However, ‘I’ in the phrase referred to all beings in the world, not individuals, symbolizing all life’s dignity.

“… But I don’t think that the punk, Devil, knew that far and named it.”

Han-bin thought that Devil might have named it because it sounded cool.

In fact, the other skills of Guideline were also great such as ‘Nine Dragon Attack,’ ‘Rupture Annihilation’ and ‘Great Pluto Destruction Wave.’

“If I think about it like that, it’s not just out of the blue.”

It was a cliché, which he had often seen in cartoons and animations on Earth, that they gave such a name to great skills.

Effir asked with a slightly excited look.

“So, what kind of skill is that?”

The name aside, it was a new skill.

Depending on the application, it could be a great asset.

Ryu Han-bin shook his head.

“I don’t know.”

“Huh? No explanation?”

“There is…”

Han-bin scratched his head.

“I was curious, so I looked up the explanation right away, and it came up like this.”

[Right-yoo-boo-jak-deo-suh-suh-suh-suh-suh-suh-suh-suh-suh-suh-suh-suh-suh…]

That was right. The letters were broken again.

“It has always been this way.”

Kibie asked while looking at Ryu Han-bin, who was grumbling.

“Why don’t you try it? If you use it yourself, you’ll know what skill it is.”

* * *

Han-bin’s group returned to the Clean Area.

Since he didn’t know the skill’s identity, it wasn’t possible to experiment in a dangerous place where monsters might appear.

The dungeon’s Clean Area was a forest of heat that scattered flame particles like spores.

After reaching a safe place, the party rested.

After recovering his physical strength, energy, and Aura, Ryu Han-bin headed to a clearing in the forest.

“Here I go.”

He took a solid stance while pulling out the Gigant.

The goal was a giant tree beyond the clearing.

He focused his mind and activated the skill.

-Lord throughout Heaven and Earth…

For a moment, Han-bin stopped the activation out of fear.

“Gasp!”

Kibie and Effir, who were watching from the sidelines, began to wonder.

“What’s wrong?”

“What’s the matter, Han-bin?”

He replied in a cold sweat.

“Oh, I don’t think I can use this carelessly.”

As soon as he tried to activate the skill, he felt a huge amount of Aura being consumed rapidly.

“You’d better all stay away.”

He didn’t even know what skill it was.

If it was a technology that consumed that much Aura, the destructive power would be unusual.

If he did something wrong, his colleagues might get caught up.

Leon Hart also nodded.

“Certainly, the skill’s name alone is quite alarming.”

Skill of the Absolute, Lord throughout Heaven and Earth.

It was a skill name meaning that the bearer was the best under the Heavens.

It sounded like it would create great mysteries of wind and cloud.

Of course, that was not what it really meant, but he was sure that it was what the Devil Omphalos meant…

“It’s likely to be a wide range destruction skill. There’s nothing bad about being careful.”

The party widened the distance from Ryu Han-bin as much as possible.

Just in case, Leon Hart had also set up a spiritual seal around them.

“This should be enough. Feel free to experiment, Han-bin.”

After nodding his head, Han-bin focused again.

“Haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!”

As he stared at the old tree in front of him with destructive intentions, the skill was activated!

-Lord throughout Heaven and Earth!

… Nothing happened.

“Huh?”

“What, Han-bin?”

Kibie and Effir blinked.

Leon Hart asked, wondering.

“Why did you stop the activation again? Is there another problem?”

Han-bin shook his head.

“That’s not it.”

“What do you mean?”

“This time, it’s working.”

“Hmm?”

Looking back at Leon Hart, who didn’t understand, Ryu Han-bin pointed around.

“I used the skill.”

It was clear that the skill ‘Lord throughout Heaven and Earth’ was activated.

He had consumed a huge amount of Aura.

He even sensed that the exhausted Aura had turned into something else and was thrown in all directions.

That was right.

He definitely did something.

However, no matter how much he looked around, nothing had changed.

There was no breeze, let alone the mysteries of the wind and clouds.

Leon Hart voiced out his opinion.

“Maybe it only works under certain conditions.”

It made sense.

situations.

After pulling up the Blade Aura, the target of the skill was determined by the greatsword Gigant.

-Lord throughout Heaven and Earth!

Nothing happened.

Leon Hart clicked his tongue.

“Isn’t it like strengthening the Blade Aura or its damage?”

That time, Ryu Han-bin targeted himself and invoked his skills.

-Lord throughout Heaven and Earth!

But nothing happened.

“I don’t think it’s strengthening defense or physical strength…”

He also experimented with Leon Hart punching and Han-bin hitting back.

-Lord throughout Heaven and Earth!

“Argh!”

Leon Hart was heavily hit on his face and rolled three times to be stuck on the floor.

“It’s not even a counterattack.”

He tried even something random.

He pointed one hand to the sky, the other to the ground, and then walked seven steps and shouted proudly!

“Lord throughout Heaven and Earth!”

Effir looked at him as if he was a crazy man who would never be in the world again.

“What are you doing?”

“… Please forget what you saw.”

Ryu Han-bin turned his head away with a red face.

He thought he wasn’t using it properly.

Han-bin muttered in vain as he looked down at Gigant.

“What kind of skill is this?”
