Chapter 120

Кhаn, Shаrin, аnd the advеnturеrs оf Аilеe’s Partу аll enterеd the right gatе оf thе thrее-рronged gаte.

Thе sсenеrу insidе thе dungеon thаt greеted them immеdiаtеlу upon еntry.

‘It’s а grassland.’

A vаst grаssland stretched оut, sо expansive thаt thе end was not visible.

Thе grаss grew densеly аnd lushlу, аbоut 1 meter tall from thе ground, and it wаs аbоut 90% similar to thе sсеnes Khаn had seеn in the game.

‘It’s almоst idеntical tо thе scеnes I saw in thе game.’

Thе third and finаl right gаte among the threе-prоngеd gаtes.

In fаct, this was а рlаce Кhan knеw а littlе аbоut.

Thе аdvеnturers оf Аilee’s Party who entered with Khan said they were looking for a hidden monster called the Wolf King, but Khan had once done the same in the past.

‘Of course, that was in the game, not in reality.’

When playing <Geo Arc> in the past, Khan had also spent days and nights waiting for the Wolf King to appear.

So Khan, who knew quite a bit about the Wolf King, was a little surprised looking at the adventurers who entered with him.

‘These guys… Could they possibly know that the Wolf King appears most frequently in this right gate?’

According to <Geo Arc> community statistics, the gate where the Wolf King appeared most frequently was the rightmost gate among the three-pronged gates.

Calculating by simple probability, the Wolf King appeared in the right gate with a 70% chance, so it could generally be assumed that the Wolf King was in the right gate where the Wolfdogs inhabited.

‘It probably won’t happen, but I was planning to quickly defeat it together with Sharin if the Wolf King appeared… Now that things have turned out like this, that plan is gone.’

The probability of the Wolf King appearing would be less than 0.1%.

The Wolf King was a hidden monster that usually appeared once every few months.

‘And it’s also quite a strong guy… It might be impossible to defeat without Dragon’s Breath.’

Khan, who had been lost in thought for a moment, noticed the presence of Wolfdogs moving slowly among the densely grown thickets.

If Khan, who had the lowest level here, could sense it, then probably everyone present could sense it.

So Khan looked at Sharin and spoke lightly.

“Sharin, this time, do as you wish.”

“Really?”

“Yes, show me your best.”

“Understood!”

It was necessary to properly check Sharin’s full power at least once.

Knowing Sharin’s full power would be much more convenient when entering other gates to hunt monsters or proceed with quests.

‘I’m curious how it will be.’

Khan had been able to confirm Sharin’s immense Mana Capacity once again in the left and middle gates.

‘Can Sharin use magic of grade 5 or higher?’

Among the magic Sharin had used so far, having learned magic only from the Lowest-Rank Magic Tome, the highest grade was grade 4.

He was most curious whether she could use magic of grade 5 or higher when she went all out.

At the same time, Ailee’s Party members were watching Khan and Sharin’s figures with interest from behind.

Especially Ailee and Karel were very interested.

‘Alright, let’s see. How strong are they?’

Those two who looked pathetically weak on the outside were, according to Ailee, mages of tremendous skill.

Karel actually couldn’t believe Ailee’s words.

No, to be honest, he didn’t want to believe them.

‘Am I weaker than those weak-looking guys? That’s absurd.’

Karel knew that Ailee was an incredibly skilled person as a mage.

But this time, he didn’t want to believe her words.

‘I’ll find out by watching from now on.’

Actually, a three-pronged gate like this could be easily conquered by Karel alone.

If that mage truly possessed immense talent, he should at least conquer the gate faster than Karel himself.

Even if he was slower at conquering the gate than Karel, there wasn’t much Karel could do about it.

He just wanted to have some mental victory.

Meanwhile, there was someone even more focused than Karel, and that was Ailee.

‘What kind of person is that man who has a mage with such absurd talent as his Disciple…?’

Ailee was a mage from the Magic Tower, but due to personal circumstances, she had left the Magic Tower and was living an adventurer’s life.

Since she had left because she couldn’t adapt well herself, she was very satisfied with her current adventurer life.

‘Khan, Khan…. Khan… No matter how much I think about it, I’ve never heard that name. Same with Sharin.’

In Ailee’s estimation, mages of such tremendous skill should have been quite famous figures even among the Magic Tower, but she was hearing their names for the first time in her life.

‘If I could use the Magic Tower Information System, I would have known immediately…’

Anyway, Ailee was curious about Khan and Sharin’s magic skills.

She was especially curious about the magic of the man named Khan, but it seemed he had no intention of doing anything.

Drazeon, standing next to Ailee and Karel with his arms crossed, also watched Khan and Sharin with a slight hint of interest.

As everyone watched Sharin, she slowly began to draw up her Mana.

Oooooom…!!

At the same time, she rapidly spun the three Circles in her heart.

Wheeeeeeeeeeng…!!

Kukukukukukukukoom…!!!

Immense Mana began to rise around Sharin’s body, and the ground started to shake violently.

The densely grown thickets scattered in the wind, revealing the figures of the Wolfdogs that had settled among them.

Grrrr…!!

Groooowl…!!!

Grrrrrrrrrrr!!!!

Perhaps because it was such a massive amount of Mana, it drew area Aggro from the monsters.

Seeing this, Karel muttered with an incredulous expression.

“What, is it okay to do that without a Tanker? They’re going to get bitten to death by the Wolfdogs at this rate?”

Ailee and Drazeon were thinking the same, but they didn’t bother to speak.

They were most curious about what magic Sharin would use.

Oooooooooom…!!!!

It wasn’t just Ailee’s party watching Sharin.

Khan, who was observing her right beside her, was truly dumbfounded inside.

‘Sharin, just how much Mana do you have…?’

He had thought the Mana Sharin had shown so far was about half of her total Mana, but that was a complete misconception.

‘Looking at this, it must be over five hundred thousand, roughly.’

For Khan, whose Mana wasn’t even ten thousand yet, it was absolutely impossible to even roughly gauge Sharin’s Mana.

At best, by rough visual estimation, her Mana Capacity seemed to be over five hundred thousand.

Grrrrrrrrr!!!

Pat! Pat! Pat! Pat! Pat!

As Sharin continued to draw up Mana, the Wolfdogs charged at incredible speed.

But Sharin was already muttering softly and reciting an Incantation.

Ooom…!!

Thud! Thud! Thud!

The Wolfdogs, charging without knowing anything, were bounced off by a Mana Barrier that had been created in an instant.

‘It’s a reinforced barrier.’

The ‘Barrier’ magic Khan possessed was a grade 1 basic magic.

On the other hand, the barrier Sharin deployed was several times thicker than Khan’s, so she had probably used the grade 3 magic ‘Reinforced Barrier’.

Groooowwwwwl!

Grrrrrrrr!!!

Pat! Pat! Pat!

The Wolfdogs, whose bodies were bounced off, seemed quite angry, barking louder than before and charging again.

Ooom….

This time, blue Mana enveloped their teeth and claws.

It seemed they intended to break the Reinforced Barrier Sharin had created.

But it was already too late.

Sharin’s magic, which had been blocking their attacks while continuing to recite the Incantation, was now fully prepared.

“Explosive Thunder!”

After finishing the Incantation and shouting the name of the magic, a lightning bolt of enormous size fell from the sky.

Pazizizizizik!!!

Kukwaaaaaaaaaang!!!!

Dozens of Wolfdogs charging at Sharin died on the spot.

‘Explosive Thunder? She can really use grade 5 magic…?!’

The ‘Explosive Thunder’ Sharin used was a grade 5 magic.

A fairly high-grade magic that causes a lightning bolt of massive power to strike from the sky.

If the magic she used was truly ‘Explosive Thunder’, this wouldn’t be the end.

Kururururururung…!!

A deafening roar erupted from the sky as if it would explode, and lightning began to strike again.

Pazizizizizik!!!

Kukwaaaaaaaaaang!!!!

Pazizizizizik!!!

Kukwaaaaaaaaaang!!!!

Pazizizizizik!!!

Kukwaaaaaaaaaang!!!!

Lightning of immense power and range continued to strike the ground.

The Wolfdogs ran around trying to somehow avoid the lightning.

Gyaaak…!

Grrruuuu….

Kiiiiing….

The terrified creatures were busy fleeing everywhere, but…

Pazizizizizik!!!

Kukwaaaaaaaaaang!!!!

It was impossible to avoid the lightning that struck right above their heads.

Srrrrr….

As Sharin withdrew her Mana, the Mana of the Explosive Thunder felt from the sky completely disappeared.

“Huff, huff… How was that, Master…?! This is also a grade 5 magic I learned from a book, but this… is a bit tiring.”

“……It was excellent.”

“Hehe, really?”

“Yes.”

He meant it sincerely.

The power of the grade 5 magic ‘Explosive Thunder’ that Sharin used was tremendous.

‘Perhaps because she learned magic from the Lowest-Rank Magic Tome, the Mana Consumption seems no joke.’

The original Mana Consumption of the Explosive Thunder magic should be a few thousand, but judging by Sharin’s pale complexion, she seemed to have used several hundred thousand Mana.

‘By the way… Did my level finally go up?’

The surprise that Sharin had used the grade 5 magic ‘Explosive Thunder’ was brief.

Khan was checking the messages that appeared before his eyes.
