Legend of Legends

After coming out, he looked around. He couldn’t find Sarang, so he tried to raised communications with her, but he couldn’t.

Junhyuk clicked his tongue. He didn’t know how long it had taken him to revive, but after he had, he wasn’t able to talk to Sarang, which meant that she had been killed.

“Even if she had killed Kilraden, Nid would have killed her.”

Sarang could have killed Kilraden, but Nid was at full health, and she had already used her powers on the assassin, so there was no way that she would’ve been able to kill Nid as well.

“Gon, where are you?”

“I am at the swamp. You got killed! What’s going on?”

That’s when Junhyuk got confirmation that Sarang had also been killed.

“Nid and Kilraden are heroes now.”

“Heroes? Are they strong?”

“It’s the worst.” Fighting them wouldn’t be easy now, and Junhyuk sighed heavily. “Come back quickly. Let’s move as a group.”

“Sure.”

Gongon’s face disappeared, and Junhyuk waited. Soon, Sarang came out. She was staggering, so he went to her quickly to give her support.

“Did you kill Kilraden?”

“Yes, but Nid killed me.”

Just as he had expected. As he patted her shoulder, Gongon suddenly appeared.

“Come.”

Gongon walked up to them and said, “Just our luck. Two of them are heroes now.”

“Right.” Junhyuk looked at them both and added, “Things won’t be easy now that there are two heroes.”

“What do we do now?”

“We have two options.” He raised one finger and said, “First, we can let them complete the quest battle and steal the item from them.”

Sarang shook her head.

“If Kraken joins the quest, they’ll have two heroes and a tank. We can’t kill any of them right now.”

She had coldly analyzed the situation, and Junhyuk stared at her.

“Have you used your ring?”

She shook her head again and said, “No, I wouldn’t have killed him anyway, so I didn’t use it.”

Junhyuk nodded and looked back at the entire group.

“My other plan is to let them complete the quest while we head to Bebe’s.”

Gongon touched his chin with his short claw and said, “It feels like running away, and this time, I can’t get new items.”

Junhyuk took a moment to think and answered, “If we divide our forces, our survival rate will go down.”

Gongon shrugged, relenting, “Nothing I can do about it. You should get stronger.”

Junhyuk’s second plan involved him getting the Vampire Lord set and becoming stronger. It was also possible that Sarang would die again if she didn’t get any new items. So, they agreed on the second plan, and Junhyuk looked at her.

“Let’s go.”

“OK.”

Sarang should be able to get a few new items to strengthen herself. Although legend items were very expensive, she could get other items of about 200,000G.

Sarang hugged Gongon from behind and picked him up.

“We can’t afford to encounter any enemies, so be careful.”

They couldn’t take the lizardmen with them either. So, they headed to Bebe’s store.

—

Getting to Bebe without using the swamp took quite a while. They had already destroyed the first bottom tower, so they took that path. By doing so, they were able to get to Bebe without encountering any enemies.

Bebe was cleaning his ears like always, and he raised his hand toward the group as they walked in.

“You came!”

“Yes.”

Bebe sniffed the air and smiled at Junhyuk.

“It smells like pure gold. Did you earn yourself any?”

Junhyuk stared at Bebe and walked toward him. Then, he extended his hand and asked, “Do you have any Pure Golden Knight set items?”

“Nothing,” Bebe answered, shaking his head.

“Then, show me the Vampire Lord set.”

Bebe scratched his chin and said, “Sure! Just as I had expected. OK!”

The storekeeper pulled out a book, and when he opened it, the Vampire Lord set appeared. As Junhyuk looked at it, his eyes beamed. He decided to get item types he didn’t already own first, while he thought of what could be replaced.

“I’ll get the pauldrons.”

“Sure.”

“Are you giving me a discount?”

Bebe nodded.

“It’s my loss, but yes. It’s a 200,000G discount.”

The more expensive the item, the bigger the discount, and Junhyuk smiled at the revelation. The champion had 8,239,760G, and Bebe subtracted 1,800,000G from it. After Junhyuk got the unique set item, he inspected the new equipment. The construction was made of black and blue leather, and it had sharp spikes attached to it.

Vampire Lord Lujet’s Pauldrons (set item)

Attack +50

Piercing +40

Defense +70

Magic Defense +70

These are the Vampire Lord Lujet’s pauldrons, which were made of the demon Keltaroc’s skin. They are light, but they posses great defense and magic resistance. They increase attack by fifty, piercing by forty, and defense and magic defense by seventy.

Completing the set increases the power of the item.

Two-Item Set Effect: Critical Hit Chance + 20%

—

Junhyuk was especially pleased with the critical chance boost. It was twice the boost of Gongon’s set item.

The item was better than most armor pieces, and even thought it was an armor piece, it increased attack as well.

“Give me the greaves.”

Bebe’s Black Armor covered Junhyuk’s entire body, but he could still buy parts for his legs separately, so he chose to do so.

Again, he spent 1,800,000G, but this time, he bit his lip. He knew what he was spending his gold on, but even a low-tiered hero wouldn’t have that kind of money.

He equipped himself.

The black and blue greaves were made out of leather he didn’t recognized. Junhyuk was the Dark Knight, so he had worried about his aesthetic while making the purchase, but he did so anyway.

He inspected his new greaves.

—

Vampire Lord Lujet’s Greaves (set item)

Piercing +60

Defense +120

Magic Defense +120

Health +500

These are the greaves of the Vampire Lord Lujet, which were made from the skin of Krelo, the Wild Beast. They increase defense and magic resistance. They increase health by five hundred, piercing by sixty, and defense and magic defense by 120.

Completing the set increases the power of the item.

Two-Item Set Effect: Critical Hit Chance + 20%

Three-Item Set Effect: Critical Hit Damage + 30%

—

Junhyuk looked at the set boosts. His critical-hit chance had increased, which meant that regular attacks could be judged to be critical hits, and now, critical hit damage had also increased. They were the best possible buffs for him.

Those pieces of equipment had shocking stats. They had been unique items first, but now they were set items, and the benefit of that was that now they had set boosts.

Seeing that, Junhyuk got the desire to purchase them all. So, he did. Even though he had gotten stronger, he was now being restrained by the Dimensional Battlefield, so to increase his available stats, he had to equip himself with items.

Junhyuk thought that the armor pieces had higher stats than Bebe’s Black Armor. Therefore, he decided to completely change his armor.

“Give me all of the armor.”

Bebe smacked his lips.

“You’ve been upgrading your armor. Aren’t you satisfied?”

“I want the new one.”

Bebe shrugged and said, “It’s your choice. You are free to buy anything. It’ll just mean more money for me.”

Junhyuk spent another 1,800,000 to get the rest of the armor. It had a unique make. Half of it was made of leather, and the other half was made of metal.

Junhyuk inspected the piece he had just acquired.

—

Vampire Lord Lujet’s Cuirass (set item)

Piercing +80

Defense +200

Magic Defense +200

Health +800

This is the top of the Vampire Lord Lujet’s armor. It’s made from a state-of-the-art metal and leather combination. It increases health by eight hundred, piercing by eighty, and defense and magic defense by two hundred.

Completing the set increases the power of the item.

Two-Item Set Effect: Critical Hit Chance + 20%

Three-Item Set Effect: Critical Hit Damage + 30%

Four-Item Set Effect: Chance to Ignore Opponent’s Defense +20%

—

Junhyuk’s eyes widened when he saw the fourth item effect. Ignoring an enemy’s defense completely would be fatal for tanks. It was all chance, but if he got lucky, and it happened with a Spatial Slash, he could easily kill Kraken.

Satisfied, he smiled.

“Finally, I want the bracer. Give them to me.”

Junhyuk wanted to replace the Wind Salamander’s Arm Warmer. Most bracers were geared for offense, and he had already bought two pieces of equipment that focused mainly on defense. Therefore, he had to buy something for attack.

Bebe took another 1,800,000G from his total, which made Junhyuk feel bad, but he reminded himself that he was investing in his future.

When he saw the bracer, it looked different. It was made of metal.

After putting it on, he inspected it.

—

Vampire Lord Lujet’s Bracer (set item)

Piercing +30

Defense +30

Attack +30

Attack Speed +15%

This is the Vampire Lord Lujet’s bracer. It is made from state-of-the-art metalwork. It increases piercing, attack and defense by thirty, and attack speed by 15 percent. Edel, the Magic Engineer, put serious effort into making this item.

Completing the set increases the power of the item.

Two-Item Set Effect: Critical Hit Chance + 20%

Three-Item Set Effect: Critical Hit Damage + 30%

Four-Item Set Effect: Chance to Ignore Opponent’s Defense +20%

Five-Item Set Effect: Enemies lose 3% of their healths for each of your attacks that lands.

—

As Junhyuk stared at the fifth effect, he couldn’t keep his mouth closed. Whenever an attack of his landed, his enemy would lose 3 percent of his or her life. The boost would be most effective against enemies with massive health pools, and all of the items were geared toward killing tanks.

“If I can kill a tank, the rest of them should be easier.”

Considering the jump to his piercing stat, his enemies would be practically naked against him, even those with high defense.

“OK.”
