Reading Webnovels Makes Me Stronger

Chapter 184

A flash of light flashed.

That was all Ian recognized.

Before he even figured out what had happened.

An arrow pierced his shoulder.

His thick armor was pierced at once and an arrow was pierced. A sharp pain pierced his head.

“Aww!”

Ian let out a belated scream.

Mizuki, who was looking ahead, looked back in surprise.

Something of her jumped out as if her crossed her.

“Mizuki, enemy, enemy!”

“I know!”

Mizuki quickly drew her sword. It was a long Japanese sword with a magenta blade.

“It’s over there! I saw you going over there!”

She saw something like a black shadow passing by. Ian hurriedly pointed Mizuki in her direction.

Their gazes were directed in the same direction.

And there was someone waiting for it.

Suck!

I could hear the shadows moving.

Does it sound like that? I had no choice but to question it, but I couldn’t think of any other way to express it.

Ian felt her spine cool.

“rear……!”

He noticed the movement and she turned her back. A black figure was seen crawling on the ground and approaching.

The moment when Ian tries to use the giant sword as a shield.

“Huh!”

He felt an indescribable pain in his shoulder.

The pain spread all over his body in an instant.

It was so painful that he could hardly move his body.

‘dock!’

Ian immediately knew what was causing the pain. pain, and stiffness.

‘Is there poison in the arrow you hit a while ago?’

Ian realized. But it was too late.

before he can do anything.

🤩🤩🤩

The dagger blew off Ian’s neck.

His hardened body began to lean slowly.

“Ian!”

Mizuki let out a shout that almost screamed. An enemy appeared in front of Ian.

Whoops!

The moment Mizuki was about to use the skill, the enemy kicked Ian’s body. When she received her corpse, the figure of her foe had already vanished.

“What the hell…!”

An astonishment flowed out of her mouth.

fast and quiet It was difficult to even follow the movement.

‘Where did you go?’

Mizuki frowned. stealth skill. The opponent is an assassin. There’s even a bow handling.

‘Being wary of ranged attacks as much as possible.’

If you can endure it, you will have no choice but to show up. She clenched the device in her hand.

She also installed traps near this place. If she comes close to her, she has to trigger her trap right away.

‘Calmly, calmly.’

Mizuki took a breath. It calmed her fluttering chest and sharpened her senses even more.

‘It will definitely come.’

As expected, she heard the sound of something moving. There was a buzzing around, perhaps trying to confuse her.

And the moment the sound stopped for a moment.

“Ugh…!”

A black figure appeared right above Mizuki’s head.

A man wrapped in shadows grabbed a dagger and lifted it to aim at her neck.

‘amnesty!’

Mizuki activated her trap. A faint image of a gift appeared from the empty void.

It is a trap that is sharp enough to cut flesh and has poison applied to the outside. It was fatal, but I didn’t expect much from this trap itself.

Suck!

Unsurprisingly, the man’s dagger slashed the gift in one fell swoop. But that moment was exactly what Mizuki was aiming for.

‘If I had avoided this… … !’

She triggered another trap. Magical power gathered in the device on the floor in an instant.

Tuquaang!

It sounded like a cannon being fired.

At the same time, dark red lightning was shot upwards from the device on the floor. It was a lightning bolt the size of a human.

Lightning strikes, literally without a moment to react.

There is no way to avoid this.

Break up!

Indeed it was.

A lightning bolt pierced through the man’s body. A strong electric shock shocked my whole body in an instant.

The man’s body trembled sadly.

“die!”

Mizuki cut off the man’s head as he fell. It was to repay Ian for what he had suffered.

The man’s head flew off and his body fell.

the moment they hit the ground.

slurp.

“What……?!”

The man’s body disappeared like a haze. Mizuki opened her mouth in amazement.

“fake?!”

“Yeah, it’s an alter ego.”

I heard a voice right behind my back.

The moment Mizuki was about to turn her head in a hurry.

“Is it a fresh experience?”

“Aaaaah!”

Her right arm flew away.

Her blood roared everywhere. Mizuki hurriedly activated her trap as she screamed.

Shooting blades and spears, and arrows coming in. Numerous types of traps aimed at the man who retreated.

“Hmm……!”

But the man avoided it.

While performing acrobatic movements that twist the body in mid-air, very narrowly.

But nonetheless, he certainly avoided the traps.

‘how!’

Seeing the man dodge the trap, Mizuki burst out in surprise.

How many traps were installed here? If he doesn’t even know that traps exist, he can’t even avoid them.

‘Is that possible… … ‘

But the man escaped.

It’s like knowing the location of all the traps.

Pushy!

“Wow!”

Her solo dance erupted around her. intense poison. If you get hit here, even that guy.

But the man had already disappeared.

Only a faint shadow remained where he had been until a moment ago.

Mizuki muttered in vain.

“Are you fighting a ghost?”

From her shadow, a man appeared as if soaring. He raises his dagger high.

“No, it’s a human.”

he pierced his heart

* * *

The sound of corpses falling echoed through the still forest.

“Child, you’re being picky.”

Park Si-jun wiped the blood off his dagger. What kind of guy set so many traps?

It was fortunate that he was weak in close combat because he was a villain specialized in traps.

‘Ian? He must have been an escort.’

Having dealt with it as a sneak attack in the first place, he probably had no idea what to do.

The trap was definitely tricky.

But thanks to a warning from my gut, I was able to avoid it with ease.

“This skill is fine.”

I actively used the newly acquired stealth skill, and the results were pretty good.

It was good to be able to hide again after a surprise attack, and it was good to see an alter ego that could be manipulated at will.

‘Perfect for disturbing others.’

Park Si-jun nodded his head satisfactorily.

“Is this a Japanese sword? I think he’s Japanese.”

Park Si-jun checked Mizuki’s sword. It was a good item of A+ grade, but it was not as good as a cotton sword.

‘Because Japanese swords are items that cannot be dropped… Perhaps it was entrusted to the blacksmith to make it.’

He looked around the Japanese sword.

‘Sell it or give it to Baek Kyung.’

He had no intention of writing anything. Park Si-jun took all the items dropped by the two villains.

“Oh, the magic stone.”

A large magic stone fell near Mizuki. It was a fairly high-grade manastone.

Park Si-jun looked at her palm.

“What is this?”

– King?

There was a button in her palm. Ishimi, watching over her shoulder, lit up her eyes.

It seems to have aroused his interest.

– Kyahoo!

Isimi pressed her button with her tail.

She didn’t think she would use her tail, so she couldn’t react.

Click, the button is pressed.

Hwareuk!

“Huh!”

A fireball flew towards Park Si-joon.

He was terrified and stepped back. Whoops! The sound of a fireball exploding resounded loudly.

– Kyaaan!

Ishimi raised her arms.

The guy was surprised too. Then she started to look at Park Si-joon as if she was sorry.

“You, the more you go, the more fine hair you get…”

– Me?

Ishimi tilted her head, pretending not to know. Should I say this is disgusting?

Park Si-jun sighed and lifted the button.

‘It looks like a device that triggers a trap.’

The question is where to trigger the trap?

There is only one button to press. But the pitfalls are endless.

Either there is a device, or it is supplemented with a skill.

‘It’s one of the two, but there’s no way to know.’

Park Si-jun grabbed the button first.

“It’s fun if you do it well, but I can use it.”

He hid the two bodies and left the forest.

* * *

Park Si-jun immediately returned to the temporary camp.

In front of the boiling pot. Soyeon was crying, and he was wiping off the bubbles one after another.

“Huh, how long do you have to do it?”

“You can stop now.”

“Ugh!”

He appeared silently from behind Park Si-jun. Soyeon screamed in surprise.

“Oh, you’re here. Do you have a lot of stomach… sick?”

“No. It’s because he has a stomach ache other than me.”

– King?!

Ishimi, who looked into her pot while waving her tail, looked up in surprise. As if she was asking why she was selling her, her accusing eyes pierced Park Si-joon.

He lightly ignored it and checked his pot.

“Well, that’s good.”

The meat was perfectly cooked. Si-Jun Park filtered the fully boiled vegetables and added fresh vegetables.

‘According to the original recipe, it should be fried in a pen… There’s no need for that.’

It was annoying, so I thought I’d just make it.

Park Si-jun took out the meat and began to tear it up with his hands to make it easier to eat.

“Ahh, ahhh…!”

– Yum yum.

Next to him, Soyeon screamed and helped.

Ishimi grabbed a few pieces of meat that Park Si-jun had ripped into her mouth.

In no time, the dish was finished. Park Si-jun looked down at his pot and patted his chin.

“What kind of dish is this?”

Originally, there was supposed to be a dish like chicken soup, but there were many omitted and changed cooking processes.

“…Gomtang? Meat soup? Pork soup?”

He made it himself, but it was hard to say what kind of dish it was because he cut it.

It doesn’t seem like a failure since I made it as the skill told me to.

Park Si-jun checked the dishes.

[Meat soup or soup (☆)]

It was obviously made for soup, but the result was a hybrid that resembled a meat soup. However, it has a deep taste as much as it has been put in for a long time.

-Effect: All stats +5%, cold protection effect, cold resistance +70%

There was a small smile on his lips.

“Not bad.”

– What?

No, it was very good.

* * *

The people of the subjugation team were trembling around.

“Ah! Let’s just grab it and go back!”

“I’ll freeze to death before I catch the monster!”

Although we had taken measures to protect ourselves from the cold, it was difficult to overcome the cold here.

As I came closer to the habitat of Hwansu, the cold got worse.

“……”

Erica was watching him. Is it really the right choice to wait for the food here?(Read more @ wuxiax.com)

I had such a question.

“It’s all made! I’ll give it to you now!”

Then Soyeon appeared, dragging a large pot. After that, Park Si-jun followed with another pot.

‘Is it soup?’

Erica glanced at the contents. It was a thick soup-like dish.

The smell is not bad. The amount of both was large enough that the subjugation team had enough to eat.

“Help you too.”

“Yes!”

Even the Red Warriors guild members participated and distributed food to the subjugation squad.

The players looked at the soup with fat faces. This is the best dish that kept you waiting.

Complaints were bound to arise.

“Ummm…”

But the smell is not bad. Lots of meat too. Above all, it is warm. Dissatisfaction arose, but the taste was also drawn.

“…let’s try it.”

One of the players drank the soup first. Starting with him, others started eating.

“Oh, not bad.”

“It’s just so delicious, it doesn’t feel like this.”

“Well, I’m satisfied with this.”

The man said, slurping the soup. The rich taste of the meat broth lingered on the tip of my tongue. The flavor of the cooked meat was also quite good.

And best of all, it was warm.

“It’s delicious to eat in a cold place.”

“Um… I feel like my body is getting warmer too.”

Eating it in the coldest conditions made it taste even better. The players continued their meal with satisfaction.

“Huh?”

Then a woman noticed something strange.

“What is this?”

I don’t know why, but after eating the soup, my body was full of energy. At first, I thought it was because my body melted, but it was something different.

‘What?’

The woman checked her own status window.

Her expression slowly hardened as she checked her letters.

“No, the ability.”

There was a buff I had never seen before.

The name is the blessing of food. The effect is… … .

“A cold protection effect on all stats +5%?”

The duration was a whopping 4 hours. The woman’s mouth opened wide after confirming the effect of the buff.

“Uh, a buff has arrived. Who used Holy Magic?”

“Blessing of food? What kind of buff is this?”

Players were visibly embarrassed.

I thought my body melted from eating hot food.
