The Taming Master

Tring-!

[The body of "Caliclops" has been rebuild . ]

[The combat of "Calicops" has been enhanced . ]

[The transcendence level of "Caliclops" has been increased to 17 . ]

Ian was just chewing on his lower lip .

A bizarre-looking machine monster was right in front of his eyes .

The size of the guy was bigger than that of the Guardian machine, and the appearance was much worse and frightening .

And just by looking at it was enough to realize that the guy had a tremendous fighting ability, and there was no need of the system message to even inform Ian .

"This… I can"t solve . "

Just a minute back, the situation was dark, but now, it was a literal game-out feeling .

Ian started to get blank .

“Kulkulkul! What will happen to you now, human?!”

The scorched voice came out of Caliclops" mouth .

And it was the voice of the guy called Charlies, the mechanical engineer .

"Is he, maybe inside that one?"

Ian bite his lip and looked at the new Caliclops .

And with the fire arrow on his Infernal Fire bow, he pulled on the string .

“What do you think . ”

“It has been long since the game was this good, kay then . ”

“What…?”

Thud-!

Arrows of fire got shot from Ian"s bow, one after the other .

The fact that it was impossible to clear it, even Ian accepted it right away .

Nevertheless, he decided to not be an idiot and do his best until the end .

"Even if I die, I should be able to at least get that boss pattern into my head . "

And since he wasn"t going to be able to catch him right away, he was thinking of taking as much data as he could .

The only part he didn"t understand about the quest, was the difficult part .

If it was a dungeon where such a weird boss monster would appear, then Ian was under the impression that it should be rated above S+ .

"No matter how many times I try… I will get this guy . "

Thinking about that, Ian smiled in a wicked way .

The story that Bbookbbook had said was very long .

But nevertheless, Harin hadn"t found it boring, not in the least .

The love story of Prettybook and the tortoise, if changed with the characters of the human, could be made into a great movie .

"This is like… some kind of a melodramatic movie with a tortoise as the main lead . "

She sure was feeling sorry for Bbookbbook, but she wanted to support the love of those two tortoises .

Harin, who had listened to the whole thing, suddenly asked,

“But, BBookbbook-ah . ”

“Bbook?”

“According to what Prettybbook has said, the tortoise that she is waiting for is probably dead… right?”

At the words from Harin, BBookbbook nodded his head slowly .

“Maybe he is bbook . It looks like even Prettybbook thinks that way bbook . ”

“Huh… really? Then why is she still waiting for him?”

“Even I"m not so sure… maybe she is trying to not have any regrets bbook . ”

“Regret?”

“Yeah bbook . Prettybbook has put it like this bbook . ”

“He told me that he would come back here, which is why I will stay here and wait bbook . He might not even come back here, but until he returns here… I will wait for him bbook . ”

“Ah…”

Tears formed in the eyes of Harin .

The words of prettybbook had touched her heart .

However, Harin wasn"t going to get involved in the love story of the other two .

She was planning on saving the poor soul of Bbookbbook .

"Yeah well, that male tortoise surely is a pitiful character, but my Bbookbbook is also feeling the same…"

Harin wiped of the tears from her eyes and opened her lips .

“Bbookbbook-ah . ”

“Bbuk?”

“According to what I think, it seems like there is a way for you to get hold of the heart of Prettybbook . ”

“Huh, what is that Bbook?”

There was a small ray of light in the face of Bbookbbook who had been engulfed in depression .

With its eyes wide open, he was looking at Harin with a lot of inquiry .

Taking a moment, Harin responded,

“BBookbbook, you…”

“BBook?”

“Should find that tortoise that is missing . ”

At the unthinkable words of Harin, Bbookbbook went stiff .

And her words continued,

“There is a need to know where that tortoise is . And then in the heart of Prettybbook feelings of some kind will start for you . If the tortoise was indeed mistreated by that Charlies, then you will avenge him…”

“Bbook…!”

“Wouldn"t Prettybbook open up her heart for you?”

Bbookbbook"s eyes began to move around at the words of Harin .

"Ah…!"

As the mouth of Caliclops opened, a huge fire appeared in the air .

Nothing but a sigh came out of Ian"s mouth .

“Phew . ”

Ian"s vitality had now been constantly flickering .

With just 5 percent of his vitality left, Ian would die the moment that wide area fire magic touches him .

There surely was a lot of time for him deal with the magic attack due to the casting time, however, if the problem was that then he had no other way .

"If the dungeon was just a little wider…"

With that magic being a wide area one, there was no room in the area he was to even escape to .

He did try using the Dragon s.h.i.+eld, however, that didn"t seem to work .

Not only couldn"t it be blocked entirely, the attribute of "abyss" just wasn"t the right one for the situation .

The attribute of Caliclops was still unknown, but it was the first natural attribute for the Abyss .

In the end, he was going to get defeated .

He did his beast till the very end, but what can"t be done, can"t be done .

"A 17 transcendence level beats a 7th level . "

Ian was grunting to himself and stroked the head of Agbi which was floating right next to him .

“You did very well, Agbi . Take a day rest . ”

Ian was thinking about summoning back Agbi .

Surely the spirit death penalty will be over by the time Ian reconnects to the game, but he just didn"t feel like letting him die .

However, after a while, Ian couldn"t help but panic .

“Huh?”

Despite the summon dismissal spell, the body of Agbi didn"t move from its place .

Of course, there was not to mention the words of Ian .

“Yah, go back, fast!”

In panic, Ian kept asking him to go back .

The hot fire that was forming on the other side was going to explode anytime soon, and the moment it was released, both Agbi and Ian would turn into ashes .

But nevertheless, he was still there .

"What? Don"t tell me, they even blocked dismissal of the summon?"

That was quite plausible .

However, it hadn"t taken long for him to realize what was wrong .

Already, just a 5 minutes back, he had dismissed Chirpy .

"Then what?"

Fl.u.s.tered, Ian kept his gazes on the back of Agbi .

The next moment, the huge red fire that was burning near the mouth of Caliclops began to burst .

Kwaaah-!

Like the flames of h.e.l.l, the fire came close for engulfing Ian and Agbi .

Ian who realized what was going to happen, closed his eyes .

Even if he didn"t see, eventually he was going to see the black screen .

"Ha… next try, I need to drag my summons to clear the quest . "

If there was just Nick or Elcarix, the number for him to win would have gotten much higher .

Ian returned to reality and shook his head .

"Uh?"

The very moment, he could feel that something was off .

By then, his body shouldn"t be moving as he was supposed to be dead, but he was able to shake his head .

"Why didn"t I log out, yet?"

Obviously, despite the fact that he was still standing in the middle of the area where the magic attack had come, he didn"t get the message saying that the game was done .

And not being able to know, Ian decided to open his eyes, and he could see that a few messages had indeed appeared .

However, among those lists of messages, he couldn"t see the one which said that he was out of the game .

[The "Fire Spirit", "Agbi" spirit power has reached maximum . ]

[Intense firepower has been born . ]

[The conditions have been met . ]

[The Fire spirit "Agbi" has evolved . ]

Kwa!

Ian opened his eyes and could see that the fire was just pa.s.sing by him .

The next moment, he found a shadow that was blocking the attack from reaching him .

A human, maybe around the age of eight years?

A red shadow of a little boy was blocking the attack with just his hands .

Ian looked at it feeling dazed .

[The lesser fire spirit "Agbi" has evolved into the fire spirit "Magbi" . ]

[Fire spirit "Magbi" has cast the unique ability "s.h.i.+eld of Red Flame" . ]

[The fire spirit "Magbi" has blocked the "h.e.l.l flame" . ]

[Absorbed 97 . 55 percent of the damage . ]

[Restored 37 . 42 percent of damage . ]

[The vitality of Magbi has been reduced by 805 . ]

[The vitality of "Caliclops" has been reduced by 9,823 . ]

Srrk-!

The storm of fire, which had been filling the sight of Ian began to fade away .

And in the ear of Ian, the fl.u.s.tered voice of Charlies could be heard .

-What, what the h.e.l.l did you do?

The voice of Charlies brought Ian back to reality, and Ian tried to grasp the situation .

There wasn"t just one or two things that didn"t make any sense, however, one thing was certain .

"The battle isn"t over yet . "

Suddenly, Agbi . No, Magbi . Ian opened the information window of his and smiled .

Magbi was now a medium spirit and had the greatest combat ability .

-Agbi (Fire spirit)

Spirit: 0/100,000

Attribute: Fire

Cla.s.s: Medium spirit

Summon Duration: 450 minutes (recall summon time: 600 minutes)

Attack: 2,325

Defense: 1,317

Agility: 1,795

Vitality: 28, 750

… syncopation…

And the best of all, the new unique abilities .

*s.h.i.+eld of Red Flame

Magbi crosses both his hands for a duration of period and temporarily absorbs all the damage in the range (absorption rate: 90-99 percent) .

*Converts 30-40% of the damage into fire attribute damage and returns it to the enemy .

*The unique abilities can be cast when the red fire bead is full of fire (Charge Fire energy: 0 . 25/100) .

*Each time Magbi dealt critical damage to the enemy, the energy of fire in the bead is charged slightly .

With the s.h.i.+eld of Red flame, it was possible to turn over the plates in the game once again .
