Junhyuk looked at what he had remaining: 1,039,760G. If he had had another 800,000G, he would’ve bought another piece of equipment, but he couldn’t. Junhyuk sold Bebe’s Black Armor and the Wind Salamander Leather Arm Warmer, getting 45,000G for the armor and 50,000G for the arm warmer. He still had a lot of money, so he thought about how to use it more effectively. Junhyuk didn’t have enough to buy another piece of the Vampire Lord set, so he thought about getting a runestone but decided to wait for the battlefield reward instead. His defense and health had increased by an enormous amount, and he felt like he could shred the enemy heroes like paper. After some though, he said, “Give me enhancement stones.” “Enhancement stones? How many?” “Ten should do.” To further increase his defense, the most effective things to do were basic upgrades. Each enhancement stone cost 50,000G, so he had just spent 500,000G, but considering the increase to his defense, he had spent the gold in the wisest manner. He wanted to keep the Vampire Lord set, thinking that the set’s effects were extremely useful. So, he did five basic upgrades to the cuirass and the greaves. (Editor’s note: For some reason the greaves act as one item, while the bracers don’t.) Junhyuk wanted to save the rest of the money for later. His defense had doubled, and even though his equipment had been upgraded to focus on defense before, he had far surpassed his previous equipment boosts. Junhyuk inspected his new equipment and realized that the Vampire Lord set looked rather monstrous. He had purchased the pieces for their quality, but the set he was wearing no longer resembled the Dark Knight. So, he turned to Bebe. “If I changed the shape of the armor, do I have to do the greaves separately?” “Why do you want to change its shape?” “I can’t look like this in my dimension.” Bebe scratched his chin and said, “In other words, you want it to look like the Black Armor?” “Yes.” “Then, you don’t need to reshape it.” Junhyuk stared at Bebe. “Whenever you want, because of another equipment, you can appear as though you were wearing the Black Armor. If you go through the reshaping process, you’ll have to do it three times, and it’ll cost you more.” Bebe smiled and added, “But things are different with this ring.” The storekeeper showed him a ring and continued, “The ring will show others the way you want to be seen.” Junhyuk looked at the ring and asked, “Is it like the mask that it can only display a specific image?” “No. You can set five different appearances to it.” Junhyuk quickly realized the power of the ring. “Can it also change my physical appearance?” “It’ll also work like a mask, yes.” The ring could change his appearance to anything he wanted. Junhyuk wanted that ring. He would buy it and engrave it with a seal. “How much is it?” “It works on your entire body, so it’s 50,000G.” “Discount?” “Sure. With the discount, it’ll be 45,000G.” Junhyuk smiled. He would be safe on Earth with that ring. “Deal. Give me the ring. Also, engrave the ring and the pieces of the Vampire Lord set.” “Certainly.” Junhyuk was glad that his equipment wasn’t all one item, so he took off his armor one piece at a time and set complex engravings on them. As Bebe did the work, he said, “Your ring is also capable of reshaping itself and other things while unsummoned if it’s engraved.” “What?!” Bebe calmly explained. “It’s not from the Dimensional Battlefield. It was especially made.” Junhyuk asked, “Does the ring’s reshaping power work only in reality? Will it work on video?” “You worry too much. This is the Dimensional Battlefield. I don’t sell defective products.” Junhyuk was glad. With the ring, he could have five new identities. However, he wasn’t going to use all of them. Just in case, he was going to leave two open slots. After the engravings were done, Junhyuk put on his armor. He also had the rest of his gear out and finished preparing himself, turning to the others after. Gongon had purchased more candy, and he was eating a piece. Sarang had also gotten new equipment. She had spent 200,000G on three new items focused on defense. Her health had also increase, and the goal was to withstand more than two attacks from Kilraden. It wouldn’t be easy. Junhyuk had already experienced Kilraden’s ultimate, and it could easily kill Sarang. After everyone got what they wanted, they all looked at each other. “Shall we get going?” Gongon nodded nonchalantly, and Sarang nodded nervously. To her, even though she had new equipment, fighting heroes was difficult. Junhyuk patted her shoulder and said, “I’ll kill them all, so don’t worry.” Noticing Junhyuk’s cheerful demeanor, Gongon asked him, “Why are you so confident?” “You’ll see.” He walked out of the portal smiling, and when the rest of the group was on the other side, he said, “We’ll destroy the second bottom tower and push on.” The allies had already destroyed the first tower, and their enemies were completing the quest. The buff would be deadly when applied, but after some time had elapsed, the allies wouldn’t have to worry about it. The important thing was to avoid encountering their enemies while heading to the second tower. If they did, and the enemies were already buffed, the allies would be in trouble. So, they had to destroy the second tower as quickly as possible. After the allies destroyed the second tower, the enemies appeared. Their buffs had worn off, but they still looked confident. They did not care about losing a tower, probably because they had two heroes. Junhyuk stepped forward and said, “Gon, I’ll act as the tank.” “You?” In the past, Gongon’s defense might have been better, but now Junhyuk’s defense was superior, so he nodded and walked forward with confidence. The enemies had thought he would’ve used the Spatial Slash, but as he walked toward them, they felt nervous. Kraken responded first, “Impudent wretch!” Kraken quickly walked toward him and rushed. The rest of the enemies followed behind the octopus, and Junhyuk focused on the mana within his body. In the past, he used the living spirit to send mana to the tip of his sword or his finger to create a single-point explosion, but things were different now. He could divide the mana within his gut and send it straight there. Previously, he had had to repeat the process five times, but now he could do it in three. Kraken was rushing toward him, and he had already gathered enough energy to trigger the single-point explosion. Instead, he was wondering if he should use the Spatial Slash with it. Junhyuk dodged Kraken’s rush with his own teleportation and used the Spatial Slash on Kilraden. He had done so during the disappearing process of the teleportation. Kilraden did not respond well to that. Previously, the Spatial Slash had taken only 53 percent off of the assassin’s health. But now, the Spatial Slash had received a 30 percent increase in damage, and on top of that, Junhyuk’s piercing stat had also increase. So, Kilraden received 78 percent in damage. The assassin’s eyes widened. The strike was a critical hit, and because of the set effect, Kilraden received even more damage. He lost an additional 3 percent of his health, so he was left with 19 percent. If the extra attack had triggered, Kilraden would’ve been killed. Because Junhyuk had used the single-point explosion with the Spatial Slash, a spherical shockwave swept through Nid, taking 29 percent off of Nid’s health. Then, the hero was covered by specks of light, and he lost an additional 3 percent. Junhyuk realized that the shockwaves fell under the same set effect, enabling them to deal even more damage to enemies. He would use that to his advantage. Kilraden was shocked, and Junhyuk teleported again and ran toward the assassin. He was thinking about finishing the hero then, but as he swung his sword, Kilraden countered. As Kilraden countered, Junhyuk used his other sword to slash at the hero. Slash! The counter had dealt 30 percent of damage to him before, but now, it only took off 10 percent of his health. Kilraden wasn’t equipped like other heroes yet, but his capacity to damage opponents was really high, which meant that Junhyuk’s defense had increased tremendously. Because both his defense and health had increased, Junhyuk only lost 10 percent with the attack, and he watched as his sword slashed through Kilraden’s chest. It wasn’t a critical, but his piercing stat had increased, so more of the damage gotten through. Junhyuk took 14 percent off of Kilraden’s total health with the attack. On top of that, another 3 percent of health was automatically taken out, leaving Kilraden with 2 percent of his health. Junhyuk swung at the assassin again. He wanted to kill Kilraden right there, but Kilraden turned translucent. It was his ultimate. Junhyuk could withstand it, but he had made other plans. Instead, he raised the force field around himself and launched himself at Nid. Junhyuk didn’t want to wait for Kilraden’s ultimate to wear off, as there was no need for it. Nid had been running toward him and had watch Junhyuk nearly kill Kilraden. Now, he had the force field around him, so Nid changed directions and turned toward the other allies. Kraken had wanted to attack him after Junhyuk had teleported for the first time, but now that he was inside the force field, all attacks were futile. Nid and Kraken now turned to face Gongon and Sarang, and Gongon blocked their path. “Junhyuk can’t have all the fun by himself.” Gongon tried heabutting Kraken, while Sarang cast her electric blast. The two blasts flew off and hit Nid and Kraken. Nid was paralyzed, and Junhyuk came from behind him and slashed at the hero. Every hit was a critical when the target was paralyzed, so Junhyuk’s attack dealt 17 percent of damage. Nid had more health than Kilraden, but the set effect triggered, and Nid lost a total of 20 percent of his health. Junhyuk wasn’t using his powers, so he was a little shocked by the amount of damage he had done. The shockwave from the attack swept through Kraken. Junhyuk was celebrating internally, thinking victory would be his, when Kilraden reappeared. Kilraden’s ultimate was still up, and he had hidden and teleported to show up behind Sarang. The assassin was about to stab her, and Junhyuk shouted, “No!”
