I Became the Weakest Summoned of the Genius Summoner

230 – Skeleton Knight With Grace

I had to evacuate to a safer rear, holding the woman contorted in pain.

“Ahh… It stings… It hurts! It’s so bad…!”

“Crack, crack, crack!”

“Huh! Ah… This, Ilwol…? Ugh!”

Hunters from other parties were now familiar with my name.

This woman’s brief self-introduction during recess remains in her memory.

Her name was Shim Yu-jeong, and she was a woman who joked that her characteristics were all about being an archer because she had practiced archery until middle school.

The person looked somewhat familiar, someone she may have passed by at least once in her past life.

“Ugh… Oh, it tickles.”

Buck Buck-

As the water from Irmana Lake began to heal her burnt arm, she scratched her arm as if she could not bear the tickling.

As she fights fiercely, popping and scratching her blisters with all her dirty hands, she may become infected with the unknown germs of the dungeon and end up having to be amputated.

When I shook her head while scratching and holding her arm, she lifted her head back and bit her lip.

“Ugh…Uuuuu… !”

I try my best to endure it, but in fact, there are few sensations as unbearable as tickling.

I dropped her off in a place most unrelated to her battle and poured her water from her brown bottle a few more times.

Then he tied her arms with big bore leather to prevent them from being scratched.

‘Actually, there’s no need to go this far…’

However, I am the type of person who really hates people getting hurt because of me, so doing this made me feel at ease.

“Ah… Um… Thank you?”

Nod-

I opened her mouth where her arms were tied and poured one of her lesser potions into her.

“Gulp-gulp-gulp-“

She swelled quickly and liquid ran down the side of her mouth, but since she was not in a particularly idle situation, I wrapped a towel soaked in Irmana’s water around her arm and flew back to the battlefield.

“Uh, over there-!”

It seemed like he was trying to say something, but he was someone I wouldn’t have any more conversation with.

[High-speed flight]

Seeek-

Now it is no longer possible to turn the tide of the war at once with a fireball. All I could do was hand-to-hand combat.

The thorns were wrapped around her entire body like a hedgehog, extending outwards as much as possible.

And while charging, I started running mainly towards the places where monsters were gathered.

Fububububook- Buuuk-

As the [Ferocious Claws] Effect exploded one after another, the bodies of the monsters hit by my attack were temporarily paralyzed.

Since many of the monsters I passed by were like that, my colleagues around me also started attacking the stiff-bodied monsters left behind.

‘Yes. ‘Kids are quick to notice.’

After I got used to swinging around all over the place, I also started swinging daggers and clubs.

There was no need to worry about hitting it.

If you swing it around mercilessly while only identifying your enemy based on the waves of your senses, it will flutter and explode.

It had quite a touch that I couldn’t feel from the Skeleton Knight.

Of course, skeletons taste best when hit with a blunt object.

While I was making a mess of the battlefield, I was simultaneously making a [Skull Bomb] Inside the chest by making a round bone like a wrapping cloth. I was naturally excited to be able to realize things that I had previously only thought about.

‘Hmm… Maybe I have some talent?’

Of course, it was an ability obtained by killing the Giant Skull, but sometimes it is necessary to cheer yourself up with self-praise like this.

The created skull bomb is immediately placed in the inventory and manufacturing is repeated.

The speed was reduced by less than half compared to making it by hand, but it was still the result of some cleverness in order to supply bombs during battle. This also became possible as the skill level increased.

As time passed, the battle passed the halfway point, and the tense clash between the combined forces of Hunters and Skeleton Knights and the Nargul forces began to tilt sharply to one side.

“Almost done! Just a little more!”

Apparently, Nargul’s monster troops came beyond the portal, so many troops were wasted as they crossed the exit.

Thanks to this, we were able to fight with an upper hand.

‘Reduce our troops appropriately.’

There were less than 300 skeleton soldiers left.

It was the result of my knowingly or unknowingly coordinating it in the middle.

Even though his men were dying by my hands, the Skeleton Knight was just looking for an opportunity to rush towards Nargul.

How deep is this resentment that they do it even after death? No, it’s surprising that I remember that in the first place.

‘What are you going to do if the portal closes when you go through the passage? If you were trapped in space, you would be crushed right away.’

I know that the Skeleton Knight has a very high intelligence, but it seems like his reason he doesn’t work well because he’s blinded by anger.

Still, perhaps because he abandoned reason and focused his energy on obsession, he had already taken a few steps into the portal.

‘Are you really trying to enter the portal? Can you handle three Nargul by yourself?’

Even if you are a Skeleton Knight, it won’t be easy.

And it wouldn’t be right for me either.

I’m not sure what the situation is outside the Hidden Dungeon right now, but Skeleton Knights are difficult monsters to encounter.

‘Give me my skills, you bastard!’

The ability to move quickly when fighting me may not be a skill, but even if it wasn’t, [Advanced Commander] And [Forgotten Ancient Swordsmanship] Were truly desirable traits. Especially swordsmanship! I wanted to steal it and eat it!

I approached the skeleton knight who had crossed the passage in stealth mode.

[Flame Slash]

Kwajak-! Kwasik- Plop!

The Skeleton Knight, who was preoccupied with something else, allowed [Flame Slash] Three times.

[Suooooo?!]

‘I don’t know what’s going on, but I’ll help you!’

I grabbed the skeleton knight with five flame marks by the waist and threw him across the portal to the Nargul guys.

It wasn’t noticeable when we simply exchanged swords, but my strength was much higher than that of the Skeleton Knight, so the skeletal creature rose helplessly into the air and flew towards Nargul.

‘Let’s jump-‘

Of course, I quickly got out of the portal.

[Natalaan──!]

The three Nargul were astonished as they shouted the name of the Skeleton Knight at the same time.

They tried to distance themselves from the Skeleton Knight, but it was already too late.

At that time, the eyes of the flying skeleton knight met me exactly.

Sigh-

‘-?!’

It looked like he was smiling slightly when he saw me. Is it because of my mood?

I gathered all my magical energy to shake off the creepy feeling.

Giiiii─────

As my magical power boiled over, a sharp bursting sound as if tearing through space erupted and scattered in all directions.

As if resonating with that energy, the flame marks on the Skeleton Knight’s body formed a pentagram.

And.

[Fire explosion]

Kwahiah Ah Ah ──!

Jet-black flames resembling darkness soared toward the ceiling, engulfing the Skeleton Knight and Nargul at the same time.

‘Wow – it’s amazing to see it again!’

In fact, it seemed much more powerful than the explosion used against the golden werewolf last time.

– Defeated ‘Natalan Zachman’, the ruler of [Hidden Dungeon – Corrupted Knight’s Hideout]!

– The attribute [Kleptomania] Is activated.

– Steal the Skeleton Knight’s skills at random!

– Acquired the skill [Phantom Dash]!

– Experience points increase significantly!

– Your level has risen!

‘Ah, the skill was right as expected.’

—-

[Phantom Dash]

– Consumes 10 stamina to increase movement speed by 20% for 5 seconds.

—-

‘Okay… The exchange ratio is a bit… Ambiguous, but it will still be very helpful in hitting the flame slash.’

It was a useful skill.

It was a shame that I couldn’t take away the trait, but there was nothing I could do.

‘Your physical strength will increase slightly as you acquire artifacts.’

-Acquired a new skill. The achievement [Pioneer] Is activated!

– All abilities increase by 1!

‘Yeah! It’s so good!’

There was even one more person left to give me a gift.

– The dungeon ruler ‘Nargul’ has been defeated!

– The attribute [Kleptomania] Is activated.

– Randomly steals Nargul’s skills!

– Skill [Arcane Deflection] Has been acquired!

– Experience points increase significantly!

– Your level has risen!

‘Oh! Arcane Deflection! Am I now able to change the trajectory of magic?’

– The achievement [Pioneer] Is activated!

– All abilities increase by 1!

Jerk, Jeer, Jeertle-

‘Keuuuuu… All abilities +1 in a row! It’s thrilling! But you only managed to kill one Nargul? Could it be that two of them survived the explosion? Does that make sense?’

Probably because it wasn’t completely within the explosion range, I was only able to kill one.

The portal has already quickly disappeared, so it has not been confirmed what their condition is.

—-

[Skeleton Demon Swordsman Ilwol – Lv.56]

Strength: 242(+2) Dexterity: 244(+10)

Stamina: 208(+2) Wisdom: 222(+10)

Magic Power: 206(+2) / Resistance: 80(+2)

—-

With Irmana’s blessing and Nargul’s dungeon buff fully applied, all stats increased by 2 with the [Pioneer] Achievement. Adding in the level-up stats, the level has increased to the point where you can feel it quite a bit.

‘Whew—now it would be worth it to compete with the Skeleton Knight using pure force.’

Unfortunately, the Skeleton Knight had gone far away, so we had to wait for the next time.

“Huh? The Skeleton Knight is-?”

“I jumped into the portal and suddenly it exploded!”

“Ilwol, the skeleton soldier, charged and pushed it in!”

“Hmm? Didn’t you cut it with a knife and throw it?”

Hunters managed to sense my actions during the battle, but few were able to figure out exactly what I was doing.

“What was that powerful explosion? Was it from the Nargul guys!”

“Did they even have that kind of ability? “They were ridiculously powerful?”

“Since there were three of them together, it wouldn’t be strange if they also used attack magic other than [Arcane Deflection].”

“But thanks to you, the portal has been closed! Let’s get rid of the remaining guys quickly! Something’s going on out of the ordinary!”

Some hunters with good instincts seemed to already be feeling it.

‘The aftermath of the fire explosion has now arrived.’

Rumbling rumbling—!

At that moment, the entire cave shook tremendously, as if there had been an earthquake, and cracks began to appear in various places on the walls.

Since it was an explosion far away from us, the impact must have been felt at a time lag. It was a tremor that could not be ignored, so the hunters used all their strength to deal with the remaining monsters.

The monsters who lost the Skeleton Knight and the large mountain called Nargul were clearly seen in confusion. Since I had even lost all my buffs, organizing it was a piece of cake.

I was once again amazed at the two monsters’ ability to make this ragtag group look like well-trained soldiers.

– All monsters in the area have been defeated!

– The attribute [Compulsion] Hurriedly supplies and organizes the magic stones placed on the battlefield.

– The 766th intermediate magic stone was acquired in this dungeon!

‘Whoa… Is it finally the end?’

Still, he killed the undead at the last minute and earned over 20 million won in magic stones alone. This is also because the thorns on its body serve as seasoning, so I should have eaten more than a thousand of them. It’s a shame.

Drurrrr rrrrible-!

After all the monsters were cleared, a huge stone staircase fell from the ceiling in the far corner of the cavity.
