Chapter 200

[White Lotus]

It is a weapon created by the great Salio Empire, which had achieved a brilliant civilization long ago.

It had been rotting away in a corner of the dimensional shop, without any stories passed down about it, until a skilled engraver recognized its value and brought out its new appearance.

It contains the essence of the magic engineering of the Salio Empire, which had reached the peak of its field. Depending on how you use it, it can give you immense power or become a double-edged sword that threatens you.

…

…

-It grows with the user.

-It can use [Shape Change].

This was similar to what Yu-hyun remembered.

When he first engraved it, its name was Salio Empire Sword, but after he gave it a name, the system also recognized it as White Lotus.

The important thing was what came next. The special window of White Lotus.

[Special Window]

-Limit Break

-(Locked due to low user level)

-(Locked due to low user level)

One of the three windows that had been locked due to his low level was now open.

Yu-hyun zoomed in on the part that said [Limit Break].

[Limit Break]

The limit of mass and volume change is greatly increased.

‘So that’s what it was.’

White Lotus is a mythical-grade weapon that grows with its owner.

Until now, Yu-hyun’s level was not high enough to use anything but its basic abilities, but thanks to the fruit of life and his promotion to manager, White Lotus also became much stronger than before.

‘I like the limit break especially.’

White Lotus could already change its shape freely, but there was a clear limit to that. It couldn’t extend its length by tens of meters even if it changed into a sword, and there was a certain limit to the mass increase as well.

Limit Break expanded the range of such changes greatly.

‘If I want, I can make it as light as a feather or as heavy as a house-sized rock. And the change in volume and shape is more flexible too, so I can even turn it into something like a net, or extend it to tens of meters away if it’s a spear.’

The first unlocked ability was rather close to an upper compatibility of the existing abilities.

It might seem somewhat boring, but Yu-hyun focused more on versatility than sheer power.

‘I don’t need a skill that can kill in one hit. The important thing is versatility that can handle any situation.’

Even if he had a sword that could cut anything, it would be meaningless if his opponent was out of reach or if he couldn’t block an attack that couldn’t be stopped by one sword.

Conversely, even if he had a very sturdy shield, he would lack the decisive power to defeat his enemy.

What Yu-hyun wanted was not an ability that was biased to one side, but an equal balance.

In that sense, he liked the special ability of White Lotus that was unlocked this time very much.

“Do you need to warm up?”

Seo Sumin arrived at the training ground and asked while rotating her wrist.

Yu-hyun nodded silently without saying anything.

His body had changed into something close to infinite perfection after replacing his heart with the fruit of life.

He didn’t even need the process of relaxing his muscles through stretching before intense exercise.

His body maintained the optimal state to respond to any situation on the spot.

Even if it wasn’t perfect at the peak level, this was a body that all warriors would covet.

“I thought I needed to do some adjustments before we started, but you look like you don’t need any.”

“It’s because I got promoted to manager.”

“Right. Who would have thought there would be a race whose level goes up with their rank. Well, it’s not bad. It’s actually easier than what I originally aimed for. The faster, the better.”

“So, how are you going to teach me? Start with knowledge? Or through sparring?”

“No. There’s no need for that. The first start will be rather simple.”

“Then why are you warming up your wrist?”

“This? It’s just because my wrist is a bit stiff. Why? Did you expect something?”

Seo Sumin smiled playfully with her lips curled up.

It was a face she often showed to Yu-hyun since she came to Baekhwa Management recently.

“Sorry to disappoint you, but I’m just a frail hawawa middle school girl.”

“What’s hawawa?”

“Well, I heard that’s how middle school girls talk these days.”

“That’s not true.”

Where did she learn such weird things?

“I can’t compete with you physically at this level. In other words, even if you pounce on me like a beast, I can’t resist properly.”

“You’re being modest with your martial arts.”

“It’s not something I can use recklessly. If I really wanted to knock you down and awakened my true will, maybe, but how can I do that to my benefactor? That means I have no choice but to take it.”

“Since earlier, you keep talking as if I forced myself on you, but there’s no need to worry about that.”

“Huh. How can you say that now? When you grabbed my chin and took everything from me, my body and my soul.”

“No, that was…”

He felt awkward, but Yu-hyun couldn’t argue.

To be honest, he wasn’t in his right mind at that time.

He was intoxicated by the power of the mask and the fruit of life, and he said those words unconsciously.

But saying that sounded like a lame excuse.

Seo Sumin’s smile deepened as she sensed Yu-hyun’s hesitation.

She realized that he was trying to provoke him, and Yu-hyun sighed.

“Phew. Let’s stop joking around and get started. What should we do first? Cut some grass with a sword? Or practice breathing?”

“There’s no need for that. The technique you’re going to learn is not bound by any weapon.”

“Then why did you use a sword?”

“That’s because I’m most familiar with it. And when I faced that spirit guy, I was desperate enough to use a sword. But in reality, Seven Demons Black Sky Divine Skill is a martial art that is not bound by any weapon.”

Seo Sumin said that and showed her right hand.

It was a slender and pale hand that revealed half of her arm along with her wrist.

“Do you remember the technique I showed you then? I used a sword because I lacked power, but in my prime, I could do it with just my fingers. A martial art that can be done with bare hands is Seven Demons Black Sky Divine Skill.”

“It sounds similar to qi.”

“That’s right. Using a weapon helps to perform such techniques more swiftly. But don’t forget. The essence is a skill to fight with bare hands.”

Yu-hyun recalled Seo Sumin’s phantom body that used to be a celestial horse.

She didn’t even show her appearance as she emitted black magic, and she easily dealt with the blood warriors without even drawing a sword.

When she swung her hand, space tore apart, and when she stamped her foot, the ground around her sank.

And even that was nothing compared to the techniques she showed him.

‘That was the power of a transcendent who approached the existence of a star.’

Yu-hyun nodded and answered.

“I understand. Then let’s start right away. What should I do first?”

“First of all, empty everything.”

“Huh?”

Yu-hyun didn’t understand what she meant by emptying for a moment.

Seo Sumin explained.

“Your body is very perfect, but the problem is that it’s full of power inside. What you’re going to learn from me is literally a new power. You have to change the existing one to mine, but that’s very difficult and time-consuming.”

“Ah. I think I get it. Since I’m used to the existing power, I have to empty everything first, and fill it with what you teach me. That way, it’ll be faster to accept it.”

It’s like pouring ink into a glass full of water. It will mix with the water and become diluted ink.

But if you empty the water and fill it with ink, what’s inside is pure ink.

The two powers didn’t clash but mixed well, but still, he needed to empty the existing water to know and feel the true color of ink.

“That’s right. You’re very quick to understand. That’s good.”

She looked so happy that her eyes widened. Seeing her expression, Yu-hyun gave a bitter smile.

If he thought about his previous life, it would be strange if he didn’t catch on at this point. But Seo Sumin didn’t know that much yet.

“We can start right away. Use up your power. The important thing is not to leave any power in your body. Emptying everything (空). That’s the foundation of my teaching.”

“I got it.”

Yu-hyun didn’t ask how to use up his power.

Usually in this situation, if Seo Sumin was fine or if Yu-hyun was stronger than now, she would have taken all his energy by sparring with him, but there was no need for that.

Seo Sumin hadn’t recovered her strength yet, and Yu-hyun wasn’t so ignorant as to choose such a cumbersome method.

Power is not only consumed by fierce fights.

If you force your power out and don’t use it, it will be consumed quickly.

“…”

Yu-hyun sat comfortably in his seat and closed his eyes and focused.

Tssssssss.

White characters began to rise around Yu-hyun’s body.

Seo Sumin quietly watched the scene.

She didn’t say anything, but her eyes were full of interest.

‘Wow. As expected.’

Her eyes were not wrong.

That pure power.

The power that was different from the inner power, and the sturdy physique that she could feel even over the black suit.

Yu-hyun was a perfect candidate to continue her progress, as if the world had created him for her.

And more than anything, she felt a strange attraction when she looked at Yu-hyun’s face with his eyes closed.

His eyelashes were long and his nose was straight.

His mood was different when he opened and closed his eyes.

He looked like he could compete with the people who were called celebrities in this world.

He also looked a bit like her friend Yura.

‘But…’

Seo Sumin’s eyes narrowed.

It had been 30 minutes already, but the power flowing out of Yu-hyun’s body showed no sign of stopping.

‘When will it end?’

I had spent 30 minutes releasing that much power endlessly, but I still had too much of it.

Yu-hyun, who also felt something was wrong, opened his eyes and said nervously.

“Uh, um. I don’t know how to say this, but.”

“What is it?”

“My power is not decreasing.”

“What?”

“I’m trying to use a lot of it, but it keeps replenishing as fast as I use it.”

“Did you drink some kind of elixir like water or something?”

I did replace my heart with something much better than an elixir.

Both Seo Sumin and Yu-hyun were silent for a while.

They needed to use their power, but it was replenished as soon as they used it, so they were stuck.

Yu-hyun wondered what to do with this and came up with a good idea.

“Maybe this will work.”

Yu-hyun created a black mask that he was now familiar with using his skill.

The sight of the black characters flowing from his wrist and gathering on his palm was amazing even to him.

Even Yu-hyun, who knew a lot of things, was new to this ‘black character’, and this mask could only be made with black characters.

“But, how come it looks different?”

Seo Sumin’s keen eyes caught the subtle change in the mask.

Indeed, the mask had changed slightly in appearance.

The horns had grown longer, and the mask itself had become more three-dimensional.

The more ferocious look was a bonus.

The leather gloves that appeared on Yu-hyun’s hands also changed.

There was a black mark of unknown material on the back of the glove.

‘Did it change because I got promoted and my rank increased?’

Yu-hyun thought that was certain.

As his rank increased, so did the level of the story he possessed.

He didn’t expect that it would lead to such a change in appearance, but Yu-hyun thought it wasn’t bad.

“What are you going to do with that?”

“I’m going to use this power. This is the skill that consumes the most power among the ones I have.”

He also had Nautilus summoning, but there was no way he could summon a giant submarine over 70m long inside a building.

Yu-hyun immediately put on the mask and focused his mind.

He might as well check out the enhanced power of Laplace while he was using his power.

Normally, he wouldn’t be able to see the future even if he used Laplace’s power, because there wasn’t enough information in the present to read the future. 𝚏𝗿𝗲ew𝐞b𝐧o𝚟𝚎𝗹.com

Doing this was barely breaking even.

But then.

‘Hmm?’

Something started to appear beyond Yu-hyun’s eyes behind the mask.
