Chapter 395: Elise 2

On Saturday evening, Junhyuk entered the training facility. Sarang was a hero now, so he thought the training facility would’ve disappeared, but he was able to enter it.

When he saw Sarang, he smiled.

“Congratulations!”

“Thanks!”

At that moment, he felt time stop. It was a feeling he was used to, and when he turned around, he saw Agenchra.

“Hm? That’s not the manager with whom I signed my contract.”

When Junhyuk heard Sarang speak, he turned to her. Whenever Agenchra had shown up before, everything had frozen in time, but this time, Sarang hadn’t.

Agenchra took off his fedora, and with a bow, he said, “Nice to meet you. I’m Agenchra.”

“Nice to meet you. I’m Sarang Kim.”

“Congratulations on becoming a hero!”

“Thank you!”

Junhyuk listened to their conversation, and once they were done, he asked, “Are heroes unaffected by the stoppage of time?”

“No.” Agenchra smiled and added, “I wanted to talk to you both.”

Junhyuk took a sit on the ground and stared at the manager.

“What do you want to talk about?”

Agenchra smiled again and started, “As you might have guessed, you two are heroes now, so you can no longer use this training facility.”

Junhyuk frowned.

“You really meant it when you said it was only for champions?”

While Sarang had been a champion, Junhyuk had been able to enter, but now that they were both heroes, he would no longer be able to do so. However, he needed more training.

“We need more training.”

Agenchra put a hand on his chin and said, “This facility was one of our services to you. I can’t go beyond my authority. There are monster areas now, so how about training there?”

Junhyuk scowled and replied, “That won’t be training.”

Agenchra smacked his lips and said, “There is nothing I can do about that, but there is something I can help with instead.”

“What?”

Junhyuk had to give up the training facility. As he looked at Agenchra, the manager chuckled and said, “We can’t do much for you in the Champions’ Battlefield, but I can put you both on the same team now that you are heroes.”

Junhyuk was glad to hear that. He felt bad about having to give up the facility, but Sarang could be on his team.

“That’s a relief.” Looking at Agenchra, Junhyuk asked, “What about Gongon?”

“I have no authority over that dimension.”

Junhyuk would still have to depend on luck. He sighed and asked, “Who will use this facility from now on?”

“Champion Ling Ling.”

Ling Ling could use the place and become a hero herself.

“I’m just curious. How many people on Earth have activated powers?”

Agenchra opened his pocketbook, looked it over and answered, “Among humans, you two are the only heroes. Ling Ling, Dakeda and Zenon are champions. There are 17 experts and 724 novices.”

“There are a lot of novices.”

Junhyuk hadn’t known about the other two champions, which shocked him.

Of the experts, many had to be working for powerful people around the world, which was why they hadn’t shown up. However, the number of novices was completely different from what he had imagined, about two hundred more.

“That’s not top secret?”

“I can’t tell everyone. I’m only telling you this.”

“Thanks.”

Junhyuk looked at Sarang. He had been able to meet her whenever he wanted, but now he wouldn’t be able to. So, he turned to Agenchra and asked, “Can you give us a space where we can meet?”

Agenchra shook his head.

“Sorry. However, you may purchase such a place from Bebe.”

Junhyuk stared at Agenchra.

“You want me to buy it?!”

“I’m just letting you know.”

“Of course.” Looking at the manager, he asked, “We are already here, so can we use the place right now?”

“Sure.”

Agenchra bowed to him and left, and Junhyuk murmured, “We are on the same team.”

“Right.”

They had wished to be on the same team, and their wish had been granted.

“We have another teammate. Her name is Layla, and she’s Halo’s disciple. She’s very skilled with her katana,” he said calmly.

“If we get Gongon, the team will be complete.”

“Not quite. We’ll need one more. If we get a weird hero, that’ll definitely hurt us.”

“So, let’s just hope we’ll meet a good one.”

“Right.”

Suddenly, Sarang thought about something and said, “Elise was really focused on the Spatial Bag. She borrowed my communications crystal to talk to Gongon.”

“Yeah?”

Elise was looking to learn more from Gongon. She was a big help, but now that she was a novice, it would be disastrous if she died on the battlefield.

“Elise should be on our team.”

If that were the case, he would be able to protect her. If things turned dangerous, he could just leave her in the castle.

Pulling out her orb, Sarang said, “Stop thinking and let’s spar!”

Junhyuk pulled out his swords.

“Your ultimate makes you immortal, so can I attack you at full strength?”

Sarang stopped him then and said, “Let me check it out again in the Dimensional Battlefield. What if I really die here?”

Junhyuk laughed hard.

“You are right. What was your victory reward?”

Sarang replied, “I totally forgot about it! It was a rare item.” She pulled out a small, round shield and said, “I needed a shield, so this is nice.”

“A mage with a shield?”

A shield could raise defensive capacity more so than any other defensive equipment. Junhyuk sheathed his swords and pulled out the Wolf Warlord’s Claw sword and said, “Practice using your shield.”

Sarang frowned slightly.

“Are you going to beat the crap out of me?”

“Let’s begin!”

Sarang backed up, and Junhyuk chased after her. She shot electric arrows at him, which he blocked.

“You aren’t supposed to accelerate!”

“I’m not accelerating!” he shouted back, keeping chase.

—

The dragon scales had arrived from China, but they weren’t as strong as Junhyuk had expected. They were weaker than the Black Turtle’s shell. However, they had their strong point: weight.

They looked heavy, but they were actually really light. Aside from the turtle’s shell, they were stronger than anything she’d come across before, and they could be used as armor.

Elise looked at what she had made. The green dragon scales had been turned into a jade humanoid shell. Inside the shell, there were monster muscles weaved into the construction. To enable movement, Elise had infused bloodstones into the shell as well. She hadn’t used a simple solution, smelting the bloodstones with the Sunlight Furnace instead. They were at least 30 more efficient that way.

Inside the dragon scales, she had drawn a magic circle. She had learned about them from Gongon, but she had added her own touch to it, which she had learned from magitek.

Her heart raced when she saw the armor in front of her.

“Zaira.”

[Yes?]

“Transfer data.”

The mechanism in front of her shone blue. To transfer Zaira’s ego, she had built the smallest hardware she could. It was a tremendous achievement, but she did not tell anyone about it. It was time to check the results.

Zaira’s data transferred at blinding speed, and Elise balled her hands into fists. Suddenly, the humanoid shell’s yes lit up.

Elise cheered aloud, “Success!”

Zaira’s eyes were shining red, so Elise said calmly, “Zaira, move around.”

[Will do.]

Zaira pulled off two wires that were attached to its neck and took a few steps. Elise could only smile. Zaira was slow at first, but it soon took faster steps.

Its strength was greater than an A-ranked monster’s, and many weapons had been installed around the mechanism, including small missiles and other things made out of monsters’ parts.

After Zaira’s transfer, it could use all kinds of martial arts. Elise had done her best to complete the project. She meant to take Zaira with her to the battlefield.

However, she did not know if she could actually take Zaira there. She had drawn the magic circle after speaking to Gongon, so now it was time to check it out.

“Zaira.”

Zaira looked at her, and Elise’s heart started pounding.

“Return.”

A magic circle shone around Zaira’s entire body, but it did not work.

“What?!”

Elise was shocked. She had checked and rechecked the magic circle. An intricate magic circle like it required a lot of materials, and she had tested simpler versions of it that had worked. The magic circle was the basics of the magic that created Spatial Bags. It was now possible for her to put and pull small objects in and out of her Spatial Bag.

So, she had made progress. However, Zaira had not gone into the Spatial Bag.

Elise frowned and walked over to Zaira. She touched Zaira, who was still shining with the circle, and the lights surrounding Zaira covered Elise’s hand.

Suddenly, Zaira disappeared.

Elise breathed heavily and roughly, looking at her hand. There was a small engraving on it.

Then, Elise extended her hand and said, “Zaira.”

Orbs of light floated out, and Zaira appeared again.

Elise said, “This is shocking and amazing! I had no idea it was possible!”

Elise had learned something new. So, she called Junhyuk, and when she heard his voice, she said, “Junhyuk, I activated another power just now.”
