I Lost My Memory and Had Too Many S-Class Girlfriends

214 – Towards the Top (9)

One fish in turbid water.

A single loach muddies the pond.

A loach came to the mind of ‘Wang Anwi’, one of the commanders of the Seongcheon Church.

Because the girl with gray hair was cleverly sneaking into the Seongcheon Church’s formation like a mudfish, and was causing a mud fight.

‘… … The movement is good.’

Wang Anwei is a martial artist from the Haomen school in China.

A typical martial artist who pursues the inherent strength of a human being rather than relying solely on his abilities. His abilities themselves are not very powerful, but when combined with Haomen’s unique spear technique, he demonstrates tremendous power.

As a result, Wang Anwei was able to become one of the knight commanders of the Seongcheon Church.

For Wang Anwei, supernatural powers and mysteries were nothing more than tools to assist martial arts. Wang Anwei’s true strength was close combat based on martial arts.

When looking at it through the eyes of such a king, the movements of the ashen-haired girl could only be described as truly wondrous and wonderful.

That was to be expected, for the movements of the ash-haired girl were neither fast nor slow, neither strong nor weak, and her body was neither sturdy nor weak.

Physical ability is at best C+~B rank.

But why can’t I knock that girl down?

Ryu Ye-rin, who runs wild as if it were her own home.

Ryu Ye-rin cleverly disrupted the formation of the Sungcheon Church’s ability users with her gray hair fluttering.

She dodges attacks by bouncing her small body in all directions, and at the same time swings her blue sword blade. Her movements are as natural as flowing water. Every time the blue sword light flashes, drops of blood splatter. The cult members struggle repeatedly, unable to catch that one girl.

He is very good at avoiding the attacks of numerous sect members.

That rat-sized girl is so elusive that she can’t be caught, but she never is. She’s strangely perceptive and resourceful.

It would be simple to use a wide range of abilities, but with so many allies mixed in, there’s a very high chance of getting caught up.

That’s why they can’t use their abilities properly. This kind of melee that digs deep into their bodies is probably the first time for the two-way ability users. Unlike the giant monster battle, they lack experience in person battles, so it was difficult for them to deal with it skillfully.

Ryu Ye-rin didn’t miss the opponent’s hesitation. She drained, countered, and evaded the opponent’s abilities. She blocked wide-range abilities, used the enemy as a shield, and repeatedly swung her sword.

He seemed to be skilled in multi-directional space combat. Dealing with multiple enemies required considerable skill and experience.

However, Ryu Ye-rin satisfied this without using any of her abilities.

Multidirectional space combat that makes full use of the body’s experience, skills, reflexes, nerves, reactions, senses, senses, eyesight, etc.

This was the realm of pure martial arts, excluding supernatural powers.

‘I didn’t pay much attention when I read the report about Ryu Ye-rin.’

At best, I thought of her as just a girl with some talent.

Of course, I knew that he had defeated all of the brothers and sisters of the Seong family, the strongest martial arts group in South Korea, and had proudly taken his place as the successor. I also knew that he had defeated Seong Baek-hyeon, who was praised as the best swordsman on the Korean Peninsula.

However, I thought that the decisive reason Ryu Ye-rin was able to win was because of her top-level ability called Sword Master.

That would be the case, since the effect of the sword master is to ‘gain absolute superiority over everything contained in the concept of a sword.’

He was the natural enemy of all swordsmen in the world because he could understand the principles of swordsmanship and read and imitate swordsmanship just by seeing him once.

Since they were a family that was famous for their ancient swordsmanship called Seonggeomildo, they would have been an ideal target for Ryu Yerin.

But now Wang Anwei realized.

Ryu Ye-rin is clearly different from ordinary hunters who simply rely on their abilities.

Objectively speaking, Ryu Ye-rin was neither a strong ability user nor a strong warrior.

Because Ryu Ye-rin’s ability could be considered foul play when limited to inspection, but it was useless if the opponent did not use a sword, and Ryu Ye-rin’s physical ability could be said to be relatively poor.

If we were to rank her as a hunter, I would say she would be a B+ rank hunter at best?

They do not have the strength and ability to deal with S-rank users or high-level monsters.

But this is only a story about a hunter tearing apart monsters.

If we assume that it is a battle between people and not a battle between giant monsters, then that girl may have a skill level of S~S+ or higher limited to close combat.

To kill a monster stronger than alloy, you need to have a corresponding amount of firepower, but to kill a human, you don’t need much strength.

All you need is a sharp edge on one cheek, a knack for cutting through skin, and an intuition that sees through psychology.

What the girl lacks in strength, speed, and ability, she makes up for with martial arts and intuition.

Originally, martial arts were small tricks used by the weak to defeat the strong.

She showed a very high level of skill as a martial artist, mixing in false and real moves, predicting movements to counter, and reading psychology to repeatedly fake moves.

Above all, that girl is very good at exploiting her opponent’s weaknesses.

Should we call it a gap in consciousness?

Or should I say, a fleeting moment?

It has an uncanny knack for spotting moments when you let your guard down, feel distracted, or lose focus.

So it can’t help but be really annoying.

‘Just like Executor David.’

Laurent de David came to mind without thinking.

Laurent is also the type who enjoys making up for his lack of physical ability with martial arts, abilities, tools, etc., and disrupting his opponent’s formation.

Like Ryu Ye-rin, she shows off very high skills limited to one-on-one battles.

If so, then the weaknesses will also be similar.

‘Should we start moving slowly?’

So far, I have personally seen Ryu Ye-rin’s prowess with my own eyes using mass-produced abilities.

I was a little surprised that she showed more skills than what was shown in the data, but I wasn’t too worried because I had already prepared a countermeasure against Ryu Ye-rin.

Because the weaknesses of someone like Ryu Ye-rin are so obvious.

“… … .”

Wang Anwei scratched his wrist indifferently.

Suddenly, blood spurted out!

Blood gushed from his wrists.

The blood that flowed down drop by drop began to boil and swelled as if it were alive and breathing.

And the blood of other people scattered around also stirred. Their blood rose into the air. Like bubbles.

‘Oops. That ability is… … .’

Ryu Ye-rin, sensing danger, quickly tried to get away, but it was already too late.

Because the blood drops that had floated up had transformed into needles and threatened Ryu Ye-rin. Thousands of bloody needles surrounded Ryu Ye-rin.

This is not a good situation. I was a little late in reacting because I was trying to keep the two-faced ability users in check. I knew about his ability, so I didn’t let my guard down.

Ryu Ye-rin rolled her eyes. The bloodshot needles that had appeared without any gaps were vivid in both her eyes. It was already too late to break through the encirclement. There were no blind spots.

The number of needles has exceeded thousands, so it is impossible to avoid them all.

“Tch!”

Papa Pot!

In an instant, blood needles swarmed me.

Avoidance is impossible.

I can’t just throw them all away.

We shouldn’t have been surrounded in the first place.

then…….

“Limited time sword barrier activated.”

Ryu Ye-rin gripped her sword tightly.

And then he quickly activated the sword barrier.

A red light cloud covered her body. It was not an external barrier, but a personal barrier. The barrier that appeared from within surrounded Ryu Ye-rin’s body like a self-defense weapon.

A treasure that has been passed down only to the head of the Seong family for generations.

Its performance was beyond doubt.

Knock knock knock! A sound like a long pole knocking on a window rang in my ears. But it didn’t matter. This would never be enough to break through the sword barrier.

It is not a barrier that can be pierced by something as simple as a thinly scattered needle.

That would be the case. Didn’t this sword barrier temporarily block Kim Han-na’s concept erosion ability?

Wang Yuan’s ability, which is a few levels lower than that, cannot break the sword barrier.

‘This is really convenient, but it wears out quickly.’

The only flaw in this ability was that it would turn off quickly like a dead battery, making it impossible to use carelessly.

It means that the cost-effectiveness is not good.

‘By the way, that guy’s ability control is good.’

Ryu Ye-rin looked at the endless stream of bloody needles and thought.

If that man had been a mass-produced S-rank ability user, he would not have been able to split his ability and use it in this way.

In reality, there were a few power users related to the elements, but they only gathered their powers and fired them ignorantly, and were unable to control and attack simultaneously, such as splitting them into thousands of pieces.

Mass-produced ability users could only swing their abilities, but were unable to properly control them.

But that man is different.

The leader of the Red Knights, Bloodline Master Wang Anwi.

The man avoided his allies and naturally created sharp needles by splashing blood.

It is usually not easy to disperse blood drops into several pieces, fix them in the air, and then simultaneously perform shape change and hardening.

Also, it avoids friendly forces and shoots them. The controls are really delicate. Doesn’t it feel like you’re shooting dozens of machine guns in a situation where friendly forces and enemies are mixed together, and only hitting the enemies?

He was called the Bloody Pilgrim when he was active in China. Well, the ability itself isn’t that strong, but that man’s true strength isn’t supernatural power, it’s martial arts. That means… … .

… … Whoosh!

With a sound of cutting through the air, Wang Yuan’s new form disappeared.

Transformation of position.

This is considered the highest level of mobility among the renewal methods.

The place where Wang Wei-an had been was now nothing but an afterimage.

Pfft!

In an instant, a spear blade appeared before Ryu Ye-rin’s eyes.

He predicted Ryu Ye-rin’s evasion route and swung his spear. The spear blade was covered in red blood. It surged forward in a curved manner along with the hardened blood. This was the third form of the Blood Spear Technique, Ilgak Hyeolri (一角血利). It was an extreme stabbing technique where all power was concentrated on one point.

But it doesn’t matter.

It’s a technology I’ve already seen.

I’ve looked over the materials the teacher gave me several times, so I’m sure I can respond… … ?

“Tch… … !”

Whirl!

A small gap created by focusing on a strong enemy.

The two spear blades that came in through that gap were extremely threatening. They hid their murderous intent and presence, and precisely aimed for Ryu Ye-rin’s vital points.

It’s an attack from a blind spot. Unless you have eyes on your back, you can’t avoid it. It’s too late to read the signs and respond.

However, Ryu Ye-rin sensed an attack from behind that was coming through a gap, and at the same time, she quickly turned her body to dodge the surprise attack while blocking Wang An-wi’s spear blade with her left sword. And she did it perfectly. As if she had seen it and avoided it.

“When did you guys get so close to each other?”

A dozen men and women naturally formed a formation and surrounded Ryu Ye-rin.

They are wearing the robes of a knight, not the regular priest’s attire. Yes. They are veteran knights, different from the two-faced ability users. They are members of the knights who have supported the Order of the Holy Heaven for a long time.

Their abilities are only at the A-rank level, but they have a sharpness that people with two-sided abilities do not have.

Unlike the idiots who rely solely on their abilities, these are the real fighters who fight by incorporating tools, experience, martial arts, etc.

‘Until now, I’ve just been keeping my distance and keeping a check… … .’

Using the ability users of both sides to figure out Ryu Ye-rin’s actions, and then taking advantage of the gap in her stamina to launch a surprise attack… … Well, if you can call it a classic method, then it’s a classic method.

‘They’re all windows.’

As I have heard, all the knights under Wang Anwei are masters of spearmanship. They also use their special abilities, making them difficult in many ways.

“Limited gravity enhancement.”

One of the knights activated his gravity powers.

It was used only in Ryu Ye-rin’s direction to avoid causing damage to allies. However, unless it is a wide-range activation, it can be easily avoided.

“Multiple square barrier.”

“Fire Arrow.”

Barrier abilities and fire magic.

Narrow the range of action with gravity abilities, block retreats with barrier abilities, and attack with flame abilities.

Also, as the knights in their one-on-one battle formation pressed forward as if they were one body, Ryu Erin could not help but become increasingly tired.

‘The connection is natural. This might be a bit cumbersome.’

Knights who have been trained for a long time to move as one with Wang Anwei.

Yes, Wang Wanwei is not just a fighter, but a commander. That means he is the head of a unit, and they are Wang Anwei’s hands and feet.

Didn’t they say from ancient times that you can’t stop ten hands with one hand?

Unlike the Yang-type ability users who didn’t get along, the Knights work together very well.

Liu Yerin does not have the strength to fight the knights led by Wang Anwei alone. Fighting any longer would be tantamount to suicide.

good.

Then, should we slowly retreat?

Because I think I’ve drawn enough aggro.

“Seo-yoon, help me! Help me!”

Wheeeeeeing!

The knight’s flaming arrows instantly died down with a bone-chilling chill. It was the enemy’s freezing ability. Combined with synthetic magic.

Long-distance backup? How? I was using my barrier ability to guard against enemy support, but it was so natural that I came in through the gap in my barrier ability and helped Ryu Ye-rin.

‘Is that Choi Seo-yoon?’

Wang Anwei turned his gaze.

In the distance, a blue-haired woman under the protection of Ilseong Group came into view.

S-rank ice user Choi Seo-yoon.

One of the main enemies who uses a combination of synthetic magic and freezing abilities.

But the surprising thing is that they didn’t break through the barrier with force, but rather sneaked in by finding a gap. If they had tried to break through it openly, they could have responded with sufficient measures.

‘You didn’t find the gap in the barrier, you read it… …?’

It suddenly occurred to me.

A fact that I had briefly forgotten.

She is a hybrid. One of the few dual-powered beings in the world. She is famous for her freezing abilities, but she also has another ability.

‘You said you had telepathy.’

Ryu Ye-rin’s movements seem to read minds.

Ryu Ye-rin’s support running around in all directions.

It was as if I had seen even the blind spot attack with my own two eyes.

‘Could it be that you expanded your field of vision through telepathy via telepathy? And even shared thoughts?’

I also read Choi Seo-yoon’s materials, so I have a general idea.

Using telepathy to communicate in real time, reduce blind spots through shared vision, and respond by reading emotions rather than killing intent.

There are quite a few things you can do if you use your telepathy abilities.

Of course, unless you have a sense like Ryu Ye-rin, you won’t be able to receive proper support.

‘I heard you can’t use your telepathy abilities properly… … It’s quite annoying.’

Wang Anwei clicked his tongue. Then he looked at Liu Yelin. He was about to retreat after receiving proper backup from Choi Seoyoon.

“Where to run away to.”

You can’t afford to miss out on the prey you’ve already caught.

Wang Anwei swung his spear again along with his men, but Liu Yelin seemed to have been waiting for this, and after exquisitely dodging the men’s attacks, she read Wang Anwei’s emotions with her telepathy ability and applied the wonders of her combined techniques to absorb the opponent’s strength, and was thrown back without resisting.

It flew like a baseball, using its own strength and the opponent’s strength as kinetic energy.

Wang Anwei immediately tried to gather the blood and shoot it out like an arrow, but was unable to do so due to Choi Seo-yoon’s interference.

Because the blood was frozen. Wang Anwei couldn’t stop Choi Seoyoon’s ability. Because the ability itself was only A-rank level. If it were ability versus ability, it would be helpless against an S-rank ability.

“Over Magic, Boost Magic, Targeting On.”

The magic book flashed along with Choi Seo-yoon’s high-speed spell.

“Corn Of Ice.”

As soon as he recited the incantation, several large, cone-shaped chunks of ice flew towards Wang Anwei.

“Stop it.”

At Wang Anwei’s words, the surrounding Yang Sang-hyung ability users used their abilities.

Even though he was a person with the ability of both sides, the ability itself was an S-rank power, so naturally he was able to easily block Choi Seo-yoon’s attacks.

Ryu Ye-rin, who had barely retreated to Choi Seo-yoon’s formation, let out a deep sigh.

“The sword barrier was about to fall, thank you, Seo-yoon.”

“Yerin, I told you that it’s dangerous to go in too deep alone.”

“I’m sorry. I just thought that with your telepathy and freezing powers as backup, it would be possible.”

Ryu Ye-rin scratches her cheek with a bitter smile.

In fact, Choi Seo-yoon’s real-time support through telepathy and backup through freezing ability were quite effective.

Since Ryu Ye-rin was a typical martial artist, she was very vulnerable to area-of-effect attacks, but she was able to secure her weaknesses as much as possible through Choi Seo-yoon’s telepathy and freezing abilities.

The only one who could properly support Ryu Ye-rin, who was running around in all directions like a tingling ball, was Choi Seo-yoon, who had telepathy using her psychic ability.

If it weren’t for Choi Seo-yoon’s backup, even Ryu Ye-rin would never have done something so crazy as engaging in a melee in the enemy’s formation.

“Still, I guess I drew quite a bit of aggro?”

Because she caused quite a ruckus in the enemy formation, the attention of many Yang-type ability users and knights was focused on Ryu Ye-rin.

Thanks to that, the other people were able to continue the fight relatively comfortably.

“By the way, I was a little nervous because you said you were one of the top rankers, but you’re not as good as I thought.”

Wang Anwei was certainly a man of great ability.

Although his abilities are only A-rank, his martial arts skills are top-tier.

But haven’t you already faced such a person? A top-ranked power user and a martial artist of master level or higher.

“Honestly, similar to Kim Han-na? Well, if you include her abilities as a commander, that old man would be more annoying.”

After saying that, Ryu Ye-rin glanced around.

Looking at the overall battle situation, it wasn’t too bad.

Although there were many S-rank mass-produced ability users in the Seongcheon Church, they were, as the name suggests, mass-produced ability users, so they were lacking in many ways when dealing with the alliance of the Seong family and the Ilseong Group.

Although the quality and quantity of capabilities are superior, in other aspects, the Seong family and Ilseong Group are ahead.

Especially in the interpersonal battle part, I couldn’t keep up with the Sung family.

Most of the Seong family’s capable people are martial artists with extensive combat experience.

Compared to other hunters, they are stronger in close combat, that is, in person combat. And many of the Ilseong Group members are long-range dealers who combine magic and abilities.

I was in charge of close range dealing and tanking at Sungssi Ilga and long range dealing and supporting at Ilseong Group, so I was having a hard time keeping up.

Ironically, the connection between Seongsi Se-ga and Ilseong Group, which had only been in sync for about a month, was much smoother.

‘If we continue like this, we can definitely win.’

The people with the ability of both sides are nothing special, but the knights and mid-level executives are not bad. For example, the knight commander, high priest, priestess, etc.

But there are many people here who can keep them in check. There’s our second son, the spoiled brat, Dahyun, the masters of Seonggeomildo, the team leaders of Ilseong Group, and our older sister Cha Soyeon…

At this level, isn’t the power so much that it’s just overflowing?

If we continue like this, we might be able to achieve victory without any casualties.

“… … Everyone, to the 4th formation.”

“yes!”

If that guy hadn’t been there.

As the middle-aged man who had been watching from afar spoke, Ryu Ye-rin looked at the members of the sect who quickly started to form a formation and stopped fighting, and she gripped her sword tightly.

“Oh, that old man is finally moving, sis.”

“……yes.”

One of the strongest in the Seongcheon Church.

Camelot Britannia, the strategic weapon that could turn the current situation around in an instant, has finally begun to move after a period of silence.
