45 Shin against Potential Rankers (1/2)

.....

”Hey! Look! Didn't those guy are 'Sorrowful Leaf' and his crew?”

”Ah! You are right. Those guys are High-Rankers from «Cismet» right?”

”They are part of 'HeadHunter Guild' now?”

”Woah! Earlier, it is a squadron from First-Rate Guild. Now a group of Potential Rankers?”

”Haha... Right? That swordsman sure likes make enemy with strong people.”

”Tsk, this time, he is dead for sure.”

The onlookers are discussing with each other when they saw 'Sorrowful Leaf' and his crew arrived at the scene.

Meanwhile, the topic of discussion started to make their moves.

Sorrowful Leaf immediately started chanting a spell after saying few words to Shin.

Shin lean his body forward, planning to intervene with Sorrowful Leaf's chanting, but before he make his move, he felt someone moving inside his perception range. 'Huh? A sixth member? Quite cunning, Huh? And This guy manage to reach 5-meters from me inside my {Sensing Circle}? He should have some Stealth Improving Skills.'

The 'Hunter WolfKin' named 'Kelo' is stalking behind Shin silently. And when he reach 5-meters away from Shin, he is already in his ideal attacking range, so he immediately pounce forward while stabbing his dagger towards the back of Shin's head.

'Hunter Skill: Sap'

'Fast and Precise', those are the right words how to describe Kelo's attack, but even though that is the case, Shin responded on it calmly. He spin his body around with a right timing, perfectly dodging the stab.

While Shin and Kelo are brushing pass each other, the former use the momentum of the spin and throw a swift kick towards the Hunter WolfKin.

'Equipment Skill: Paralysis Bite'

Pak!

-2563(Stunned)

After that, Shin immediately ducked forward while taking a sword-drawing stance. Then, without further ado, Shin swiftly pulled out the [Yamato] from its sheath and slash it towards Kelo.

'Self-Created Skill: Quick Draw'

Shing!

When Kelo see the status of 5-seconds immobilizing effect, he immediately used the {Hunter Skil: Killer Instincts} to removed the effect. Then, he swiftly followed it with {Hunter Skill: Gale Steps} to vanished in front of Shin and get out from his predicament.

Miss!

Shin hit nothing but air. And even though he can still feel Kelo's presence, he don't have the time to chase after him. It is because he felt a fast spinning arrow is coming his way.

Shin hopped backwards, dodging the arrow. Then, he do a side-flip to his right dodging the {Charge} Skill of the Human Knight of the group, named 'Rodrin'.

Shin don't have a time to catch his breath because the Berserker TigerKin with the name 'Sunny South' is already descending towards him.

Shin can't dodge to any direction because those are already been covered by the Rodrin and Kelo. All he can do is to jump up in the air, so he have no choice by to do so.

Boom!

Shin avoided the {Berserker Jump} by jumping upwards, but he also become exposed to the Archer Blood Elf of the group. Her name is 'Playful Wind'.

Playful Wind release an arrow reinforce by a wind elemental Mana, that arrow leave a trail of green light behind when release from the bow.

'Archer Skill: Power Shot'

Swoosh!

The arrow is fast, but still not enough for Shin to panic. He calmly kick on the air, to do another jump midair and also do a corkscrew flip in the process.

Pa!

'Legacy Skill: Mondi's Jump'

Miss!

The arrow failed to hit its mark, while the others on the scene become shocked at Shin's second jump in the air.

Shin don't care about their reaction, he use another {Mondi's Jump} by kicking the air behind him. But this time instead of doing another jump upwards, Shin shot downwards straight towards the 'Human Priest' of the group.

The Human Priest is a female and named 'Joanna'. Shin don't want to hit girls since it is against his principles, but since he is forced to do so, he have no choice but to do it. Kill or be Killed, just like earlier with the squadron from 'Minotaur League'. And this is just a game after all, so he guess it is still fine.

Swoosh!

And during his decent, Shin form a poison needle and throw it at Sorrowful Leaf who is busy chanting out his spell.

'Equipment Skill: Scorpion Sting'

Swoosh!

Clang!

The poison needle is hit by an arrow midair, which gotten Shin a little off guard. 'Huh? That Archer girl is pretty good.'

And on Joanna's side, when she saw that Shin is coming after her, she immediately wave her staff and use a priest {Blink} to get away from her current location.

Shin didn't chase after her when he see that, instead he do two consecutive taps on the air to change his direction. This time he is coming after the Archer.

Pa!

Pa!

Swoosh!

The first tap is for Shin to jump higher, while the second tap is for him to shot himself towards Playful Wind.

Shin's current AGI is a little over 4000 points, so he can use {Mondi's Jump} 4-times currently.

This time, during his descend, Shin slash his sword downwards in a diagonally fashion. And with that, his descent become even more faster.

'Extra Skill: Falling Lightblade'

The entire process looks too long, but it only happened in a matter of seconds. And due to that, Playful Wind can't react in time.

Swoosh!

Splash!

-73 431

-3 672(Burned Damage)

Third of Playful Wind's HP were been cut off by that attack, She is also knocked off on the ground because of the extra effect of the {Falling Lightblade}. Shin is about to do a follow up attack after that, but before he manage to do so, he saw Rodrin is throwing his shield towards his way.

'Knight Skill: Shield Throw'

During that time, the sword-sheath of the [Yamato] transformed into a transparent pure white double-edge longsword mysteriously.

'Legacy Skill: Mondi's Style: Meteor Form'

Then, Shin swing the [Snowstorm Edge] deflecting the incoming shield, and redirecting it towards Sunny South who is rushing at him with {Berserker Charge} skill.

'Combat Technique: Parrying Stance'

Clang!

Swoosh!

Sunny South is gotten off guard at Shin's maneuver, so he failed to react on it and collide with the shield, stunning him for 3-seconds. In fact, he is not the only one become shocked at it, it is the same with his comrades and the onlookers in the distance.
