Chapter 259
Ian approached the Monarch of Abyss, looking at it as a precious thing for him to consume .
‘Did I take it too lightly because Level 100 players were able to clear it?’
Ian, who thought the dungeon was easy, didn’t have many trails of thoughts after that .
However, unlike his thoughts, he didn’t show a speck of hesitation or concern on his face .
‘It is a Legendary one at level 350… boss monster because it is stronger than Yankun . ’
Ian examined the Monarch of Abyss .
‘A large hammer chain… can it compete in a fast pace?’
On the other hand was Lilson, who had no intention of going against the boss, he had almost lost his soul .
From the mouth of the frightened Lilson, a few soulless words started to come out .
“This… Ian, no matter what I would opt to runaway…”
However, because of all the commotion happening because of the explosions, the words from Lilson couldn’t go through Ian’s ears, so Lilson just sat down .
“Huu, confirmed that one level is down…”
In fact, Lilson’s resignation from action was an obvious act .
It was his sense that it would be impossible for any player to take down a boss of level 350 all by himself .
Lilson couldn’t escape from the dungeon from the back as he would have to clear out the monster of level 190, and it was impossible to log out of a dungeon before clearing it out .
Lilson and Ian were like thrown away rats .
At least, that was what Lilson thought .
‘I’m so sorry, Ian . If you had known beforehand that this was such a strong dungeon to clear, you probably would have brought your guild members too…’
Though these were Lilson’s thoughts, he still thought he should watch the battle that would happen .
He believed if he knew what was happening, he could at least not be hit from it .
Lilson’s blurred eyes were now shining like lanterns .
‘It is a big monster, but when will a day come for one to witness a match of Ian’s this close . ’
Lilson hurriedly started to record a personal video .
‘I need to put this on video . ’
Lilson’s mind cleared . The battle between Ian and the Monarch of Abyss had begun .
Keuahh!
The Monarch of Abyss, an ancient giant, roared wildly .
[You deserve the Power of Abyss!!!]
Ian just nodded at it and laughed .
“Sure . ”
[If so, check it out right away!]
After the words stopped appearing, the Monarch of Abyss, lifted a hammer in both of his hands and swung it with a huge force towards the place where Ian was .
Kwang!
The size of the hump on the hammer was so huge it was bigger than Ian’s whole body .
When such a tremendous hammer hit the floor of the dungeon, the entire area began to shake as though an earthquake had occurred .

Kwa-Kwa-Kwang!
The boss was continuing to swing its weapon at Ian, but there was no way such a slow-paced attack could hit Ian . .
“Carsus, Breath cooldown time, we will talk when you get back . Ly and Harley attack with me”
Ian had deliberately pulled Bbookbbook back .
No matter how high the vitality and the armor defense of Bbookbbook were, he didn’t pay such price for the familiar to die .
‘It is not a kind of monster that can be taken down by tank . ’
If in a case, the level of Bbookbbook and the Boss monster was even a little bit similar, it might have a little worth to try out, but the level 150 difference was not something to be taken lightly .
Ian had immediately used Pin’s wide range buff and Harley’s power buff .
‘I have to maximize the difference of power . . !’
Moreover, when Ian walked over to the giant, he managed to make the overwhelming giant with a difference of level 150 move .
Dang!
Ian barely leaped into the air to avoid the giant hammer .
“Harley, this way!”
Harley, who moved quickly after the hand gesture Ian made, picked him up on his back .
Tta-tta!
Well, at the moment, apart from Bbookbbook, Harley was the lowest ranked among Ian’s familiars .
However, it had the agility much greater than the others, probably because it had a power buff which converted its other stats .
[Kuaah! You cockroach!]
Ian and Ly along with Pin, these three started to take down the vitality of the giant .
Kakakang-Kang-!
While attacking the giant, Ly’s long claws dug into the chain armor that was on him .
[The familiar ‘Ly’ has done tremendous damage to the ‘Monarch of Abyss’ . ]
[The health of the ‘Monarch of Abyss’ is reduced by 187698 . ]
At that moment, the giant’s gaze moved to the wound done to him . In this small gap, Ian had taken his Judgment of Spirit King and struck the giant to the ground .
Puak!
Ian’s spear sharply went and pierced the layers of chain and armor!
[Tremendous damage has been done to ‘The Monarch of Abyss’ . ]
[Health of ‘The Monarch of Abyss’ is decreased by 448739 . ]
The spear had gained another +20 power, and it began to shine .
[‘Lightening of Judgment’ was summoned . ]
[Added an additional 224368 light damage to the lord of Abyss . ]
[Decreased the movement speed of the ‘Monarch of Abyss’ by 20% (-30%) . ]
The ‘Lightening Judgment’ was a unique ability attached to the Judgment of the Spirit King .
The lightning judgment was capable of putting in action with a 10% chance, but with the Judgment of Spirit King power now grown to 30%, it was now activated to a 30% chance .
Whenever the strength goes up, it wasn’t just the attack power that rises, but the innate strength too .
Thought it didn’t increase the attack count, but it truly is a tremendous destructive power .

The only regretful part was that debuff of speed that was supposed to be caused because the lightning shock didn’t play a major role because the boss monster had great immune ability .
‘Too bad… even if it was just an electric shock, wasn’t able to completely use it . ’
Ian and the familiars were now taking the battle more seriously and nervously .
Specifically Ian, who was watching the giants movements with utmost concentration .
The more the battle continued, the more alone Ian had felt .
‘Uh…! It would have been a whole lot easier if I called out Kaizer or Yankun or Celia . ’
Celia’s ability to heal the familiars in the battle would have been a tremendous help to this one, the most lingering thoughts of Ian’s were on Kaizer and Yankun .
If all my familiars would have been there, I would have caught the boss .
“Ooh, uhh . ”
Ian’s breathing started to pick up a pace .
In this meantime, the vitality of the giant was decreasing .
“Master, be ready!”
At these words from Carusus, Ian jumped into the air to avoid the movement made by the giant .
“Now!”
A growing purple light began to be emitted from the mouth of Carusus .
Grrrr-!
The strong breath of a powerful dragon that was about to attack .
It took a little time before the breath was blown, but it was a short time gap in which the giant couldn’t escape .
If it had a debuff, it wasn’t truly known, but in the present situation, the giant had no place to take guard to avoid the breath .
Without any doubt, the breath of Carusus passed and engulfed the whole body of the giant .
Hwarhh!
Ian’s gauge automatically moved into the direction of the giant’s vitality gauge .
‘Hu, so now you’re half was done?’
The Monarch of Abyss’s life gauge began to flicker after being hit by the breath of Carusus .
Ian had stopped attacking and retreated .
‘I’m not sure what kind of new attack pattern will emerge, so I need to be at my utmost caution . ’
Many of the boss monsters in Kilian had various kinds of attack patterns .
Patterns were very different from each boss monster, so there was no possible way to assume they had a common pattern .
The attack pattern changed once life points hit 50% and another change when it hit 20% .
Ian watched the giant’s movements with nervousness .
‘Now what will you do? Magic? A recovery skill?’
The pattern Ian hated the most was of the Ly’s kind, who restored their life to the fullest .
The fact that a monster managed to fill its vitality in an instant proved that mac can be used .
In addition to it, there was a case that until it replenishes, it would be in an immune state, and if such cases did appear, it would be hard to push one’s luck .
Fortunately, the Monarch of Abyss didn’t fill its life . Instead, its body was gleaming with light, and all kinds of buffs were imposed on it, with awesome stats .
[Increase of all battle abilities of ‘Monarch of Abyss’ by 30%]
[Increase of health recovery state of ‘Monarch of Abyss’ by 15%]
[‘Monarch of Abyss’ special ability ‘Abyss’ has been activated . ]
[For the next 15 minutes, the defense of the ‘Monarch of Abyss’ is increased by 27 . 5% and reduced the opponent’s movement by 30% when hit . (The slowing effect can’t be overdone . )]
As he read the system message, Ian’s expression faded .
‘Hu, isn’t it a little harsh…?’
Ian carefully checked the buff effects on the giant and held the Judgment of the Spirit King tightly in his hands .
‘Just one single mistake, and it is game over . ’
If the hammer could be blocked, the hammer looked like something seen on screen .
Ththa!
Ian was rushing towards the giant .
* * *
Gulp!
Lilson swallowed his dry spit .
‘This… This is the real fighting style of Ian…!’
As mentioned before, Lilson was a huge fan of Ian .
Of course, he was still recording the video of the combat, the player and the familiars moving around .
However, even then, he thought Ian’s fighting ability was fabricated a little bit .
‘I thought the video was just edited in an astonishing manner . ’
The image editing that was done dedicated to the image of Ian and most users thought Ian’s combat style was outstanding because of the editing technique .
The images online on the internet were stunning because of the bloody scenes in it .
However, Lilson, who was witnessing the battle in front of him, had to change his opinion .
‘This… those videos are lacking . ’
Ian looking great was never the product of image editing .
Now, Ian’s combat was so awesome all the picture would turn out well regardless of the angle .
“Huh! I shouldn’t die now . Even if Ian doesn’t manage to catch the monster, the video alone will be enough for me to win the tournament . ”
Lilson though after a painless death, he would go back to the castle and show Ian the video he had taken .
‘If the guild is included in this for promotional purpose, the income will be good, but the publicity effect it creates would be enormous . ’
Lilson was getting delusional in his head, but he was constantly moving to take the footage in a much greater manner .
As time went by, Lilson’s expressions were starting to appear stronger .
“Uh-huh!”
Lilson’s gaze was fixed on the gauge of the monsters’ .
Lilson started to get excited as he saw what was flickering on the life gauge of the monster .
“Are you… trying to catch it?”
However, at that time…
Kuaahhhh!
The giant roared and attacked out of the blue .
Whoo-Ohh-Woo!
The huge hammer he had was now in the direction of Ian .
According to Lilson’s point of view, it wasn’t something one could avoid, and he closed his eyes shut .

Tales of the Legendary Scholar
They meet in the most unlikely moment and turned their life around. Freidrech newly arrived in his own nation's capital city, which is so foreign to him compared to his village's idyllic and nondiscriminatory atmosphere, after he is forced to come. Now, he is facing a royal prince and tells him to bow. This draws out one of his late father's teachings from the deepest recesses in his mind. "The blood of your great ancestors runs in your veins. Don't easily bow down to anyone, or accept suppression by any being, not even from a monarch, unless you pledge your allegiance to him. Also, giving in to oppression is directly telling the oppressor that you're easy prey and open for manipulation." He is uncertain on how to face this oppression right now. Will he bows or not? What will he do to uphold his father's words while keeping his life safe? As for the prince, Theodrech has nothing to do with Freidrech, so he wishes to let this slip, but the boy opens his mouth and proposes the most ludicrous challenge he ever heard and triggers his curiosity. "I, Freidrech Goederf Gerboud, son of the late Village Chief Louvel Gerboud of Wrilon, will challenge you, Your Highness, to a battle of riddles… If you win, I will not only bow but be your servant for the rest of my life." This amuses the prince. It is the first he met a boy of the same age who is not intimidated by the air of authority he projects. Rather, this boy challenges him. "Why are you so headstrong? In fact, bowing to me is an honor. You saw the King's noble Knights. When they saw me, they bowed," says Theodrech, testing Freidrech. "Allow me to be forward, Your Highness. For me, bowing to a monarch does not guarantee loyalty. If I were you, I rather have men who stand straight in my presence but who got my back, than bowing men who are dreaming of my death," replies Freidrech. The prince’s curiosity increases. A huge smile is seen on his face. Prince Theodrech decides to take Freidrech under his wing. Little did they know, this boy who Prince Theodrech takes in as his confidant and friend in the most ridiculous fashion is someone indispensable in his life and the one who can help him succeed the throne when he almost believes he has lost. Thus, the Tales of the Legendary Scholar begins. ------ o ------ Old Synopsis: A famous ancient adage stated, behind a successful man is a woman BUT… In these lands, the monarchs are seeking not a woman to stand behind them but the man hailed as the Legendary Scholar.

Warmage: A Progression Fantasy
As the daughter of a renowned War Hero, Shaya was destined for a life of heroism and glory. A life she desired more than anything else – until her mother sacrificed herself for the cause and the very Empire she died for stole Shaya’s dreams from her. Cunning and resourceful, Shaya worked hard to keep her and her brother safe, clawing themselves out of a system set against them and gaining the power they needed to find their way in life again. Now, she’s achieved the first step of her dreams: she's been accepted to the prestigious Imperial Academy of War and Magic. In order to become the best gods damned Warmage around, all she has to do is overcome the Imperial system that wants to see her fail and control the demonic blood in her veins that wants for nothing but rage and violence. ...but hey, every obstacle is an opportunity to exploit – if you’re willing to think smart and work hard. Updates Sunday - Tuesday - Thursday![successful participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge] Rating: This should align pretty closely with your typical MCU movie, so PG-13 for scenes of fantasy violence. There'll be gore and some swearing but not much beyond that. If that changes, I'll warn you. MC: Shaya is analytical, but begins the story emotional and impulsive. She leans towards rationality and uses this to control her demonic impulses to the best of her abilities. She begins the story as a somewhat capable protagonist, but grows in power steadily through hard work and diligence. Fights: ...I like fight scenes. They’re going to be detailed, but I won’t drown you in description of individual hand movements or footwork. I like fights that can be solved like puzzles by the audience, where creative thinking wins the day using tools you know the protagonist has at their disposal.
