Chapter 367: Ghost White Tiger 3

The Spatial Slash was dangerous. Aside from it slicing a leg, it might also kill the Ghost White Tiger. Junhyuk’s attack stat was higher than ever.

He dove forward while returning a couple of the Pure Golden Knight set items. If a shockwave hit the monster, it might kill it as well.

Instead, he gathered mana on his sword. Junhyuk wasn’t going for a single-point explosion. He was actually preparing a mana blade. He felt his attack speed was slower than ever, but he swung his sword at the oncoming Ghost White Tiger.

Even as he did, he felt he was too slow, so he raised a force field around Jeffrey while getting himself inside. There, he felt the heavy pressure restraining him disappear.

Clang!

The Ghost White Tiger pounded against the force field, and Jeffrey was launched away, along with the force field.

That’s when Junhyuk teleported behind the Ghost White Tiger and grabbed hold of the fur atop the monster’s neck.

The Ghost White Tiger tried to swat him with its tail, but Junhyuk cut it off when it approached him.

Slash!

When the Ghost White Tiger lost its tail, it roared loudly.

Rooooaar!

Junhyuk did not stop there. He raised his sword and stabbed down on the Ghost White Tiger’s shoulder. He thought he had disabled it, but the monster crouched, tensing its muscles together in order to hold the sword down.

Junhyuk thought that the mana blade would’ve been able to slice through the tiger’s muscles easily, but he was wrong, so Junhyuk tried twisting the sword to pull it out, and the Ghost White Tiger slammed against a building, rolling into it with him.

Boom, boom!

The building was destroyed, and the debris covered him. Junhyuk gritted his teeth and yanked on the sword. Once he had pulled it out, blood spurted out of the monster like a fountain.

The Ghost White Tiger bled silver, which was something Junhyuk would’ve never imagined. Seeing that, he thought the monster’s blood might hold its power.

While covered in building debris, he did not let go of the Ghost White Tiger’s fur. It knew it was being held by him, so the monster threw itself against another wall.

Crack! Crack!

Junhyuk was slammed against the wall, and the Ghost White Tiger started running, dragging Junhyuk across the wall as he held on to its fur.

Junhyuk was sure of one thing then: he had to stop the Ghost White Tiger immediately.

So, he stabbed down on the monster’s shoulder again.

The Ghost White Tiger was massive, so he couldn’t really deal heavy damage to it. Junhyuk did that while gathering more mana for another mana blade.

The single-point explosion left an orb-like impression on things, which told him the shape of the attack. However, he didn’t want that. This time, he triggered a single-point explosion, but the explosion looked more like a long line of energy. Junhyuk repeated the process, gathering mana on the blade of the sword again and triggering another line-like single-point explosion.

“Argh!”

Finally, his blade went through the Ghost White Tiger’s shoulder, sinking right through the body and piercing its leg. The attack kept the Ghost White TIger from running any further, but the momentum was launching them against a building while they crashed-landed.

Junhyuk let go of the Ghost White Tiger, and the monster slammed against everything around it. The Ghost White Tiger couldn’t use one of its front legs, so its face crashed against the ground. As it was trying to get up, Junhyuk stabbed its hind legs with the Frozen Rune Sword.

“Rooaar!”

The Ghost White Tiger tried to bite him, and Junhyuk punched it with his left fist.

Boom!

Junhyuk was equipped with runestones of the highest quality, so his strength was through the roof. If his fist had landed straight onto the monster, Junhyuk fight have killed it. However, he turned his fist just right so that it would mostly graze the Ghost White Tiger.

Because of the Frozen Rune Sword’s effect on Earth, the Ghost White Tiger remained stationary, but he could not remove the sword. So, Junhyuk pressed down on its neck and shouted, “Come down! Hurry!”

Jeffrey told the harpy to go down, and as he stared at the beast, he gulped.

“Whew! This is scary!”

“The force field won’t last long.”

Jeffrey extended his hand, and his own B-ranked monsters appeared, disappearing quickly after that. He had cancelled the contracts between himself and the other monsters. After that, he stood in front of the Ghost White Tiger.

The Ghost White Tiger was visibly injured.

Jeffrey touched its forehead and said, “I, Jeffrey, am now your owner.”

They both had thought it would be a simple task. However, things went wrong, and Junhyuk turned to Jeffrey.

“What’s wrong?”

“This can’t be!”

Jeffrey touched the Ghost White Tiger again and said, “I, Jeffrey, am now your owner.”

But the taming failed again.

“What the hell?!”

Junhyuk looked around, saying, “More ghost tigers are coming at us. I have to stop them. Can you do this by yourself?”

“I’ll try.”

Jeffrey was still holding his shield while he stared down at the Ghost White Tiger. He tensed. Meanwhile, Junhyuk, after some thought, raised the Blood Rune Sword and tabbed it down the jaw of the Ghost White Tiger, pinning it to the ground.

“Grrrr!”

The Ghost White Tiger stared at him angrily, and he turned to Jeffrey.

“This will make it less dangerous.”

“Are you fighting barehanded?”

“I don’t care.”

The way things were, Junhyuk wished he had brought the Wolf Warlord claw swords.

He stepped forward, sensing the ghost tigers approaching them. Junhyuk couldn’t get too far from there. Otherwise, Jeffrey would be in danger. So, he had to stay near.

Jeffrey was doing his best to tame the Ghost White Tiger, but he wasn’t making any progress.

The Ghost White Tiger remained ferocious. He wasn’t scared of what was happening.

“Since I don’t have my sword, do I look easy?” Junhyuk asked.

He smiled coldly, sensing the ghost tigers coming at him. Junhyuk dodged the claws and punched at them.

He hadn’t used his full strength on the Ghost White Tiger so that he wouldn’t kill it, but now, he didn’t have to hold back.

Boom!

Even without weapons, his attack stat was extremely high, and that was due to his equipment. Most of everything he owned had been designed to increase attack. One ghost tiger was punched on the head, and silver blood splattered everywhere.

Junhyuk learned that he could fight with his fists, but like before, he wasn’t generating any shockwaves. The ghost tigers gathered up and attacked him. He watched them and triggered his acceleration.

The ghost tigers were stealthy but quick. He punched them as he sensed them, but they weren’t only after him.

The monsters were climbing over buildings and scampering down walls toward Jeffrey, so Junhyuk ignored the ghost tigers rushing at him and ran toward Jeffrey.

Jeffrey watched as Junhyuk headed toward him, still with his hand on the Ghost White Tiger’s forehead.

“Shit! I’ll tame you sooner or later, you son of a—!”

Suddenly, a strong, bright light rushed out of Jeffrey and wrapped around the Ghost White Tiger.

A ghost tiger was rushing toward Jeffrey, and Junhyuk frowned. Another ghost tiger had been chasing him, and when it bit him on the leg, Junhyuk got slowed down.

He wouldn’t be able to get to Jeffrey in time.

Jeffrey watched as the ghost tiger pounced down on him and raised his hand. Suddenly, a spatial tear appeared, and a massive being walked through it.

Crack!

The Ghost White Tiger slammed against the ghost tiger coming at Jeffrey, and the ghost tiger howled in pain.

Crack!!

Junhyuk stopped and turned to Jeffrey. Jeffrey had summoned the Ghost White Tiger, but he was grimacing hard. Nevertheless, Jeffrey raised his hand.

Suddenly, the Ghost White Tiger turned red. It came out of hiding berserked.

Junhyuk watched as the Ghost White Tiger moved, impressed. The Ghost White Tiger hid, but Junhyuk could still sense it. It was moving very fast.

The Ghost White Tiger was moving faster than when Junhyuk accelerated. However, he could catch up to it if Junhyuk tried to. He might have a hard time chasing it, but fighting the Ghost White Tiger wouldn’t depend on speed alone.

After Jeffrey summoned the Ghost White Tiger, it quickly took care of the remaining monsters. A few ghost tigers tried to run away, but the Ghost White Tiger chased them down and killed them.

After the Ghost White Tiger disappeared, Junhyuk looked at Jeffrey.

Jeffrey’s face was pale, and he fell to the ground, breathing raggedly.

“Whew! Whew! I spent so much mana!”

Jeffrey’s mana was at zero, and an idea came to Junhyuk.

“You can summon it and enrage it, but it only lasts for ten seconds?”

Sighing, Jeffrey said, “I need an item that’ll regenerate my mana.”

“Then, take this,” Junhyuk said.

He pulled out the mana bracelet, and Jeffrey took it and inspected it.

“What is this?”

“It’s a Mana Charger. Wear it when you use your powers, and your powers will grow. Just wearing it increases your stamina.”

“Are you giving it to me?”

“That’s right. You can charge it at the Dimensional Battlefield.”

“Of course.”

After thinking about the ten-second active time, he told Jeffrey, “It’ll be better if you stick to four B-ranked monsters.”

Jeffrey smiled.

“I don’t care that it’ll work for ten seconds on a forty-second cooldown. The Ghost White Tiger can kill a hero.”

The Ghost White Tiger could hide, and it was strong enough to kill a hero. In fact, who would be able to stop it once it went berserk?

If the first strike didn’t kill, the Ghost White Tiger would just keep at it. Heroes with low quality items would certainly die.

Jeffrey was still an expert, but he could kill heroes. When Junhyuk had been an expert, he hadn’t been able to kill heroes. He only started killing heroes when he activated his Spatial Slash. Jeffrey could do it now, which meant that Jeffrey could be stronger now than Junhyuk when he was an expert.

Junhyuk stared at Jeffrey and said, “We’ve achieved our goal, but my expectations are shattered.

Junhyuk had thought that Jeffrey would guard the teams outside the tear, but that wouldn’t be possible now.

Jeffrey’s power only lasted for ten seconds. During those ten seconds, the Ghost White Tiger could go wild and kill other A-ranked monsters. However, there were many monsters outside of the tear. Ten seconds wouldn’t be enough. In fact, it meant that the experts’ team had to support Jeffrey.

Grabbing Jeffrey’s shoulder, he said, “Jeffrey, you must strengthen your powers quickly. You aren’t much help now.”

Jeffrey smiled.

“My powers will evolve, and my summoning time will increase. I’ll do my best to make that happen.” Jeffrey touched Junhyuk’s hand on his shoulder and added, “And thank you so much for helping me.”

Junhyuk smirked, letting go of Jeffrey’s shoulder in the process. He didn’t like touching another man’s hands like that.
