Assimilating Villains Abilities to Become the Strongest Chapter 81

Episode 81. Maybe, a crisis in the program

Seoldown flew to the end of subspace and fell to the ground.

He stumbled and struggled to get up, and for the first time since starting the second round of the preliminaries, he looked shocked.

‘Why can’t I feel the mana on the magic circle side…? ?’

He wondered to himself as he held his jaw, where he felt extreme pain.

It wasn’t just the mana on the magic circle side.

Looking at it now, I couldn’t feel any mana outside of subspace at all.

‘… ah!’

Seoldown looked around and inadvertently checked the subspace wall, and only then did he realize the reason.

The mana of the wall that created the subspace was of a different nature. Unlike before, it was made of unpleasant sticky black mana.

It had the same nature as the mana of the black wave rippling on the ground.

‘Outside mana is not able to penetrate this black barrier… !’

Realizing the situation, Seoldaun’s eyes began to shake slightly.

Now, we are in a situation where we have to fight inside Kim Jin-seong’s perfect home ground.

“Do you think it’s getting a little more fun now?”

At that time, Kim Jin-seong returned exactly what Seol-daun had said.

Seoldaun’s gaze returned to Kim Jinseong.

Kim Jin-seong’s expression was still as calm as when we first met. It was a perfect contrast to Seol Down, who lost the smile in an instant from her confident face.

‘As expected, it was possible to convert subspace skills into demonic energy.’

Jinseong Kim took advantage of the fact that he possessed the characteristics of a ‘demon constitution’ and transformed the subspace skill by applying demonic energy like other skills.

The result was very successful. It seemed like it was easier to succeed because it was a place where magic reigned.

“Let’s see if we can show the same attack power as before even in a situation where we cannot receive external mana help.”

In response to Kim Jin-seong’s continued words, Seol-daun immediately smiled and shouted.

“Ha ha ha ha ha! Still, there is no change in the fact that subspace is full of mana!”

At the same time, Seoldaun quickly held out both palms towards Kim Jinseong.

Whiiing~!

A huge firestorm summoned once again began to sweep over Kim Jin-seong.

Jinseong Kim summoned a magic shield as if he had been waiting and easily blocked it.

Because his abilities were twice as strong due to the buff in subspace, he seemed to be able to block the fire storm much more easily than before.

‘shit! Then, summon an ice storm… !’

Seoldown immediately tried to use another elemental range attack.

But that was then.

Suddenly, the scope of the firestorm began to noticeably decrease.

‘Uh, huh? what?!’

Seeing the fire storm that had suddenly shrunk to the size of a person, Seoldown panicked and tried to gather all the mana around him and pour it into it.

however… Mana did not accumulate.

‘Why is there mana around… . wait for a sec.’

Only then did Seoldown realize that the air around him had changed somehow.

No, beyond the change, I couldn’t even feel its existence at all.

At the same time, at some point, I realized that I couldn’t breathe.

‘Why can’t I breathe… . ‘Seo, no way?!’

Seoldaun’s eyes widened as he noticed something.

Kim Jin-seong hinted while looking at Seol-daun who was embarrassed.

“Now I realize there has been a vacuum.”

As he spoke, this notification window appeared in front of his eyes.

▶ Through skill fusion, the ‘Subspace Magic Circle Creation’ skill and the ‘Human Vacuum Cleaner’ skill have been fused.

▶ Acquired the fusion skill ‘Create vacuum subspace magic circle’.

– Injects mana into the floor to create a very wide subspace magic circle.

– Within the magic circle, allies’ abilities increase fourfold, and enemies’ abilities drop to less than 1/4. Allies and enemies can be designated by the user.

– If the user wishes, the subspace can be created into a vacuum state. Even if it turns into a vacuum state, the user and allies will not be affected in any way.

▶ The ‘Subspace Magic Circle Creation’ and ‘Human Vacuum Cleaner’ skills have disappeared.

▶ The ‘Vacuum Subspace Magic Circle Creation’ skill is registered as a permanent storage skill.

▶ 5,000 Vis Crimea points were used for skill fusion costs.

Kim Jin-seong, who removed the notification window from before his eyes, spoke to Seol-daun.

“I saw on the Internet that mana can be obtained from the air, is that correct? So, does that mean there is no mana in a vacuum?”

“… … !”

“thank you. “Thanks to you telling me about your abilities earlier, I was able to think of ways to deal with her.”

Kim Jin-seong’s words just now were sincere.

If Seoldown had not told him that he was capable of manipulating mana due to his overflowing confidence, he would not have been able to come up with the same response method as he did now.

“Then, shall we continue?”

Kim Jin-seong slowly approached Seoldown.

Even though Kim Jin-seong was getting closer, Seol-daun was unable to do anything.

This was because beyond being extremely embarrassed, I was falling into a state of panic.

‘No way! It is only possible to create a space without mana with one’s own power… ?’

Seoldaun has lived with Mana all her life. It was the first time for him to be in a space without mana like now.

Seoldaun, who was called a ‘natural genius’ for his ability to control the mana around him, was just an ordinary young man with a strong body who had no abilities in an environment without mana.

Wow!

“Wow!”

The sight of Seoldown flying backwards after being hit on the other side of the chin again.

Seoldown, which flew without stopping because it was in a vacuum, was able to stop in place only after hitting the demonic wall.

Seol-daun raised his head and saw Kim Jin-seong walking towards him.

‘Now, wait a minute! do not be like this! ‘Just stop for a second!’

Seoldaun raised his hands and knelt down to his knees and began to beg.

Even though his voice was not coming out properly due to the vacuum, Seoldown’s actions seemed very cruel.

‘I don’t want to die yet! So just take a look! Jinseong, huh? We’ve been good friends since we sat together on the plane, right? huh? So just once… !’

Deep.

However, the tip of Kim Jin-seong’s merciless dagger pierced Seol-daun’s forehead.

As soon as he pulled out the dagger, Kim Jin-seong opened his mouth in a dry voice towards Seol-daun, who fell down helplessly with his eyes open.

“This is Colosseum Survival.”

* * *

– and!

– Jinseong Kim won!

– This is it!

– I believed it, Kim Jin-seong! I believed it, Jinseong Kim! I believed it, Jinseong Kim! I believed it, Kim Jin-seong!

– Holy shit**

– Why is that bastard fighting with Kim Jin-seong?

– Ah ** I even spent all my house deposit to bet on Seoldown… .

-Sul -down ** Noma, to pay my money ** Baby ** **** The same *** the same ***

The moment Kim Jin-seong defeated Seol-daun, the chat room quickly began to escalate with wild cheers and harsh chats filled with automatic mosaics.

The monitor room staff also cheered.

“Kim Jin-seong won!”

“nice! thank god. Still, Seol-daun’s character was a bit weak to replace Kim Jin-seong’s popularity… .”

“And Seoldown was a bit anti-climactic. “Because of comments such as never going to the training room or ignoring other participants by calling them ‘weaks.’”

“The scene where Seol-daun gets hit at the end is a must! Edit it over and over again. Understand?”

Jang Seung-wook and Baek Jun, who were watching from behind, were also talking with slightly bright expressions.

“After all, a lazy genius can’t beat a hard-working genius.”

“I was so caught off guard. “The ability to control mana is not invincible.”

“that’s right.”

In fact, if you go to the New Continent, Selepo, the reality is that there are many people who have the ability to control the surrounding mana.

It was said that his ability only seemed amazing here, not in the New World, and that he couldn’t even show his business cards in Selepo, where the strongest people gathered.

“More than anything, I don’t think Seoldown had any idea that the skill that can be said to be the pinnacle of mana control ability is the subspace magic circle. Even though the person using it was Kim Jin-seong.”

“hmm.”

If Seoldown had known that the skill that could overpower his ability was the subspace magic circle.

And if the other person, Kim Jin-seong, was paying attention to the fact that he has the ability to change the properties of subspace.

So, if I had escaped out of the range a long time ago instead of being foolishly trapped in subspace, the ending wouldn’t have ended as vainly as it did now.

In other words, if we were to sum up this match in one word, it would not be an exaggeration to say that it was ‘Seoldown’s carelessness.’

“Anyway, what should I do with Kim Jin-seong? “If you absorb even the abilities of Seol, won’t you become a ‘monster’ in the literal sense of the word?”

“… … .”

“I think it has reached a level where it can run away even if all the employees wearing the Colosseum’s special full armor attack it.”

Baek Jun did not respond to Jang Seung-wook’s words.

However, looking at his serious expression, I could see that he too had similar concerns as Jang Seung-wook.

‘… As soon as the second round is over, I need to go to the hunter department and get more support. Kim Jin-seong is the same, and there are so many monsters this season who showed growth beyond my expectations.’

It was good even without looking at it, as if the face of future Minister Tak Nam-gyu was being drawn before Baek Jun’s eyes.

Also, he would grumble with an expression of embarrassment at Baekjun’s request for a huge amount of S-class magic stones.

But I can’t help it.

If security was not strengthened further than it is now, there was a very high possibility that a terrible situation would occur where all the surviving ‘forced laborers’ would escape.

Ugh-.

At that time, his smartphone vibrated in his pocket.

He immediately took it out and checked the sender.

‘… Minister Tak Nam-gyu?’

The sender of the phone call that came at that time was Minister Hunter, Tak Nam-gyu.

* * *

Jinseong Kim, the person who had made Baekjun so worried, was sitting on a flat rock near Seoldaun’s body, reading the notification window that popped up in front of him.

▶ Acquired the opponent’s overall characteristic, ‘Blush Ability’.

▷ Cloudy Ability: Obtains the following characteristics and permanent storage skills.

– Become smoke: Transform into smoke. Becomes immune to physical attack damage. You can fly in the sky as smoke.

– Smoke magic circle: Creates a magic circle by spewing out a large amount of smoke in an instant. Blocks the vision of enemies within the magic circle with smoke.

– Nemesis Optimization State: When transformed into smoke, you can unleash electric attacks at will, the effect is doubled, and MP consumption is reduced by 1/2.

▷ Imitate Zeus: Mana can be converted to lightning properties.

– Agility is permanently increased by 40.

The notification window floating above the gel was something that came to mind from when I killed Pungbitgaram earlier.

‘These are not bad characteristics, but compared to the ones below… .’

Kim Jin-seong’s gaze went down to the notification window below.

These were the characteristics obtained by killing Seoldown.

▷ Those who control mana: Can freely use mana within a wide range around them. All skills that use mana can be used without consuming MP until all surrounding mana is consumed.

▷ Mana lag: The abilities of all skills that use mana are doubled, and MP consumption is reduced by 1/2.

‘… That’s an incredible morale trait. It’s to the point where it feels shabby.’

Mana can be obtained from the air, and considering that this Earth is full of air, this trait can be seen as the fraud of frauds.

Looking at the notification window, I could see why Seoldown was so confident.

‘I was right in my judgment that it would be dangerous to attack the main castle directly.’

In fact, the reason why Kim Jin-seong did not think to go directly into the main castle and assassinate him was because of the pressure of 200 people, but the bigger reason was that a being named Seol-daun was with them.

However, looking at this ability, I would have been in real trouble if I had tried to enter the main castle to personally assassinate him.

‘If I could apply this with Magi, I’d be able to show incredible destructive power during battle, right?’

Right now, the ‘demon constitution’ trait alone is an ability that could be called a fraud, but what if the ‘mana constitution’ trait could be combined and applied here?

‘Then the warp hole distance will be doubled. … wait for a sec.’

Kim Jin-seong suddenly realized that it was theoretically possible to increase the warp hole distance to over 100 km, and suddenly turned his head to the side without realizing it.

Outside the island where the vast sea spreads out.

Kim Jin-seong could feel without even looking that a very strong and thick mana shield separated the sea from the island.

‘With this ability, wouldn’t it be possible to break through the mana shield?’

Suddenly, the idea that he might escape began to sprout in Kim Jin-seong’s head.
