TL: Haku

Editor: Hungry Panda

Ian, who had won against Black Magician 'Kanjihoonie' and advanced to the finals, faced his predicted opponent

'As expected, this user made it to the finals'

It was the assassin user Li power since the first preliminary round

Ian was nervous

'This round could really be difficult'

For the duration of this arena competition, whenever Ian didn't have a 's matches and spectated

However, the more Ian spectated, the more he could only marvel

'He didn't use any other skills aside froet up to here'

That was the scariest point

Despite having chased hi about Li's hidden cards

The only ting Ian learned was that Li's control abilities were unbelievable

On the other hand, Ian was in a situation where he had revealed everything in the match just before with Hoonie

”Ian, I see I watched your 8-player round match It was impressive”

Li approached Ian first and extended his hand

And Ian nodded his head while shaking his hand

”Nice to meet you I also saw your matches well I look forward to this match”

It was the final that would decide the rookie league's winner

The est, centre arena in the e crowd came in order to watch the two people's match

Since the beginning of Kailran, this was the largest nuathered for the arena's rookie league

And within the anticipation of the people, a syste out

In a ue's last in

Cheers rang out here and there

”Wow!”

”Somebody win!”

”Li, I'm a fan!”

”Ian, show him the potential of a Summoner!”

As it was theability in this arena rookie league, the anticipation of the spectators had reached its climax

After Ian had su

Just like with all the previous matches, his expression showed no disturbance

The eyes that were visible between a cloth that was tightly wrapped around his head looked incredibly sharp

'No ainst the assassin class Especially evenMaster, which specializes in ta Familiars…'

The only way to deal with Li's Transparency skill was toreflexes and reduce the ae whatever way he could

And he needed to win no matter what before the cooldown time for Transparency was over

In 5 seconds, the in

5… 4… 3… 2… 1… Start!

The an, and Ian, in a very nervous state, kept his eyes fixated on Li

But rather than casting his Transparency skill as soon as thedidn't use it and with slow footsteps, he was approaching Ian

'What the hell? Is he saving his Transparency skill as much as possible?'

The 'Transparency' skill that was no different fro evaluated as the best skill at least in 1:1 PvP

It was a hiding skill that was opti to land a deathblow, but it wasn't without its flaws

That was that its cooldown time was 10 minutes

Once they reached a high level, it could be that they received a high-ranking Transparency skill, and it could be that the cooldown tinificantly then

However, because an assassin-class user that could learn a high-ranking skill still didn't exist, it was so they could not find out about

'If I was him, I would also use the Transparency skill only when in the er Since if I used the Transparency skill fro, the risk would be incredibly big'

Because Li had used the Transparency skill as soon as the match started in all of his previous matches, he naturally assumed that he would do the same this time as well

'If he had fought like that because he thought up until now, they were quite easy opponents… Does that mean he considers me a little like a rival?'

While Ian was thinking of this and that, the distance between the two users became smaller and smaller

And the one who initiated the fight was Li

Ta-tat-!

As Li leaped into the air, Ian completely focused on his movements

And as Li reached near Ddukdae, Ian let out a command hurriedly

”Ddukdae! Ice Wave!”

Firstly, it was the top priority to tie down the assassin's feet, as their movements were far faster compared to Ian

As his movements were so fast, it was hard to successfully hit him with Current Proliferation

Firstly, nu skill

Thud-!

Along with the sto of Ddukdae's foot, an ice wave spread out in all directions

However, just then

”Shadow Movement!”

Pop!

Li, as suspended in the air, suddenly disappeared

'Wha, what the hell?'

Ian was taken aback

He knew that it wasn't the Transparency skill

If he had used the Transparency skill, his shadow should have disappeared as well, but the shadow on the ground remained as is

And a ly disappeared from the shadow of the floor, popped out

”Huk-!”

Ian sed a gulp of air

'He avoided Ice Wave?'

Ice Wave was an AoE skill

It was a skill that couldn't be avoided at all if you ithin its range

However, due to the sun's angle, Li instantly ed Ice Wave

And Ian realized

'Shadows! It's a hidden class related to shadows!'

Ast the basic skills of an assassin, he had never heard that there was so like that

He had predicted, but he was sure that Li had a hidden class

While Ian was shocked, Liain

”Ly, Berserk!”

Grr-!

And as if Ly aiting for it, he charged toward Li closer, on an equal level

Ian used the Current Proliferation skill and afterspheres on each hand, he focused his vision onto Li's movements

While avoiding Ly's attacks, he could roughly predict the route of Li spheres towards that direction

Even if he couldn't hit hi's movements as much as possible, he felt a situation where Ly could bite him could be made

And the 's body disappeared as if it sunk into the ground again

'Is it Shadow Moveain?'

Ian slightly frowned

As the opponent had a lot of variables, it was an opponent that was very annoying to face

And as Liround, ju sphere towards that direction

'The cooldown time for Shadow Movement shouldn't have ended already'

If it wasn't for Shadow Movement, there was no way he could avoid this attack this time

Because no ility was, it was ie his direction inspread his hand out towards the air

Chwa-ra-rak-!

And seven flying knives were scattered in the air from his hands

'What the hell is this now?!'

Ian was flustered This was because Li hadn't thrown the knives towards Ian or Ly but just as described, he scattered them in the air

To put it specifically, he had scattered them above Ian's head

'Did he think that I would just get hit by the knives that drop from the air?'

Ian hurriedly threw his body towards a location where the knives wouldn't fall

No, he tried to throw his body

However…

”Huk!”

The shadow of the knife right in front of hi as if it was alive

It was a situation where he had no way of dodging it

Bang-!

As you were directly hit by user 'Li Shadow Knives', you have received critical dae

You have received 4560 dae

Cold sweat dripped down Ian's spine as Ian suffered fro Shadow Knives

'What kind of Offensive Power is this?'

It was indeed unbelievable Offensive Power On top of that, at the fault of his restrictedknives in its entirety

You have received 1075 dae

You have received 954 dae

Including the additional dae close to 7 thousand came in

'To have received this e from one move…'

However, he hadn't suffered alone

Current Proliferation and Ly's attack also dealt da

Fa'
