Taming Master Chapter 293:
Seikaito just put a very long story into short brief words .
Ian was relieved and was ready to take up a new quest as a form of paying him .
This was the point where Ian was supposed to battle against the Asmodians, and there was no time for doing other quests .
So Ian had a small chat with Seikaito .
“Qualification? Chance? What is it that you are implying?”
“It means to see if you are qualified to become the owner of the Cintamani . ”
“How am I supposed to prove it?”
“If you can endure the weight of the fate placed on your shoulders, that will be enough to prove it . ”
“The weight of fate…?”
Ian was intimidated with it .
‘What does he mean by weight of fate? The quests I’m doing now and the dimensional war… does he mean those?’
Seikaito finally disappeared after saying the following words .
“Once my judgment on you is done, I will come back . ”
Ian took a sigh of relief .
This was because he had no clue as to what needed to be done .
‘Phew, it was really thrilling to get the Cintamani . But there’s nothing that I can do other than worry about it…’
Bbookbbook failed to evolve, but he still possessed the Cintamani . Also, he had the Soldier of Earth which could play a huge role in winning the Dimensional War .
This was about half the success he wanted .
Ian had to change his mind to the positive side, he came into his room in the castle .
“Do I need to check the equipment before entering the battle?”
Ian opened his inventory and took out all the useful equipment that he had collected .
During the successful huntings he did in the numerous hunting grounds, he came across many high-level boss monsters .
And he purchased a legendary item in the auction store, so now the inventory of Ian was literally overflowing .
‘Okay, let’s prepare to discipline those idiots who decided to change their race to the Asmodians without any fear . ’
The first thing Ian did was to check his information window .
‘From the most important one is anti-magic…’
Currently, Ian’s anti-magic was about 31% .
The most recent hunting that happened in the Southern Island, Ian didn’t wear any equipment that had anti-magic power, that was because in the location Ian went, anti-magic was useless .
The 31% of the anti-magic included Ian’s basic equipment along with some ornaments .
Ian touched his Judgment of the Spirit King .
‘There is no anti-magic option in this Judgment of the Spirit King… but this guy is a non-substitutable resource . ’
Ian changed all the items except for the Judgment of the Spirit King and the Dragon tamer head .
‘Well, this is a bit ambiguous . The anti-magic is about 7% and there are other options… maybe another system would be better . ’
Ian took a lot of time to select the items he wanted to use, and it took 30 minutes for him to set all the items .
Once all the setting was done, Ian’s anti-magic was at 62% .
It was possible to get it to 70% by changing the systems of all the items, but Ian chose not to do that .
That was because there were a lot of other things that needed to be considered .
‘Okay, now let’s try strengthening?’
Ian took out all of his magic stones until the lowest .
This time, the equipment for the setting-earmuffs hadn’t been entirely strengthened .
He used up all the mid-range and advanced magic stones, so he hadn’t been able to build a high-end system more than 10, but going till the 10 was a definite thing .
Ian used all the magic stones by staying seated in his place .
After 30 minutes, Ian was successful in making all of his equipment from 8 to 10 .
Ian had a satisfied expression .
“Wohoo, if I have this much, it is enough to overpower the Asmodians?”
Ian smiled thinking about the Asmodians who would be flustered seeing Ian’s power .
When he reinforced the items, the numerical value of options gradually increased and the anti-magic was adjusted to 69% .
That could have been an abominable anti-magic from the stance of an Asmodian .
“Kay, should we go for a hunt now?”
Ian looked more confident than ever .
Now that he was able to put up the anti-magic, he could play a bit more aggressively, more aggressive than he used to, because he was stronger now .
‘I have been fighting enemies which are stronger than me for a while and if I need to, I will use the transcendental option that I haven’t used properly . ’
The transcendental option that Ian talked about, was an option that was obtained when the Judgment of Spirit King was reinforced with the first transcendental equipment .
[Transcendental option: when avoiding an enemy attack, you have a 15% chance to avoid 30% of the damage and 30% chance to regain 10% of your health . ]
An option that provides a 15% chance of avoiding .
This option seemed like a fraudulent option at first glance, but this was a tricky option when put to practice .
If one avoids 100 times, then you won’t be able to attack with the 15, and one could get into a dangerous situation if failed .
The time Ian used this was when he was on the back of Halli, which quickly triggered a buff . And it wasn’t easy as Halli had to avoid more than half of the attacks .
“But in the midst of such a massive battle, if I rage like a crazed person, I could continue to play . ”
Ian believed in his anti-magic power and was willing to play the battle like a knight or a warrior .
It was because he had a better chance to kill an Asmodian, than the class of Knights .
Avoiding the obstructions that were poured into the battlefields, it would be around 3~5 avoidance per seconds, and the option to use the transcend could be done sequentially .
“There is not much left to do . Let’s just go into the battlefield . ”
It was around 30 minutes before the beginning of the Dimensional war .
Ian for the last time checked his condition and started moving towards the battlefield .
Originally, it was a battlefield not too far from the Pyro Domain, but since they were being pushed back, now the battle was down to the nose of the Castle .
* * *
“Oh? Why isn’t there anyone apart from our guild?”
At that question from Ian who just entered the battle, Herz just sighed .
“Since I wasn’t here, I don’t know either, but what now? It is said that almost 20 users were hit by Irahan . Since you weren’t here, even the top ranker according to Fiolan was also hit . ”
“Huh…?”
“Said that she went to the Toballdo . It wasn’t so fun it seems . ”
“OMG . ”
Ian’s face widened .
‘This sudden ego?’
Lotus guild had grown quite a lot in the meantime .
Ian thought the Lotus Guild was a guild that stayed on the outside of the top 10 ranks, but now they had enough to be in the fifth place .
But he was still feeling sad when he heard that one ranker of the 20 elite guild members were hit .
‘From what I remember, I don’t think that the control was so imbalanced . ’
Among the users that Ian had met Shakaran was the most controlled user .
Ian was good too, but his control wasn’t to the limit of Shakaran .
Ian who had high self-esteem vowed to find Irahan .
Ian greeted the guild members, such as Fiolan after a long time and waited to the battle to begin .
“Now, One minute… what could we have in store?”
[The 22nd Dimensional War begins in 10 seconds from now . ]
[Start counting . ]
[10… 9… 8…]
The eyes of the human users were blank .
This was all because of the Asmodian that cleared most of them in just one week .
But now, the rankers including Remir who were out of the game were back, and they didn’t have a pessimistic look .
Ian fixed his spear and approached Remir .
As Remir was a wizard class, she was at a little disadvantage .
“Remir . ”
“Yeah?”
“When the battle starts, follow me . ”
“Hmm…?”
Remir was anxious at what Ian was planning to do but before she could say anything, the battle started .
[Dimensional War begins . I bless you all good luck, specifically the human users . ]
Ian sprang forward in a flash for a certain something, and Remir who noticed it hurriedly moved along with Ian .
‘What the **** is this crazy guy doing again?’
But with Ian, she was always able to experience new things, so Remir moved along with anticipation .
Remir who was following Ian, one side of her lip corners went up making a smirk .

Now that the virtual reality games have become popular .
The gaming industry was booming more than ever, and there were many people for whom the virtual reality games were part of their daily life .
In particular, Kailan, who occupies most of the virtual reality market, was able to create many new jobs .
It would be easy to say that there were a lot of people who made the Kailan play possible .
And Kim Sang-min was one of them .
Right after graduating from college—he did not aim to get a good job, so he lived unemployed, but then he found his aptitude in Kailan, and he became happier than before .
Not long ago, he met a female user in the Kailan game, married her and now lives a happy life .
And there were more such cases like Kim Sang-min .
Confirming his role in the Kailan, Sang-min mumbled to himself .
“This hero system and the legendary system looks good… if I manage to sell it, I can get a month’s worth of living expenses…”
Sang-min who was checking his items while eating lunch, turned away his head thinking about something .
After checking his watch, he was startled and rushed to find the remote control .
“Well, I guess it is time to start the broadcasting?”
Turning on the TV, he immediately changed the channel to the one where the game was going on .
And the pro’s started talking about it in the gaming broadcast .
[Hello, this is Castor Hains . ]
[Nice to meet you, this is reporter Lucia . ]
Sang-min who found his favorite reporter Hains chuckled to himself .
“Today too, will the humans run away?”
Sang-min was a user of the human class .
His level was in the mid 140s so he couldn’t participate, but his biggest concern in the last few days was the Dimensional War .
[Today, the Asmodians seem very aggressive in the battle . You will feel the same by looking at this, irrespective of the class they are racing to the front . Almost like they are going to melt them all . ]
[I know, right . There is a lot of talks these days about the collapse of the balance . What are your thoughts on that Hains?]
[Well, I’m not sure . It hasn’t been that long since the Asmodians were introduced, and the controversy of the balance in the Kailan started, some time and these pieces will all fall into the respective spaces . In the end, the balance will turn out alright . ]
[Is that so . Then if the time goes, will the human class user be able to take down the Asmodians?]
[They sure will . The balance in Kailan has always been perfect . ]
From the explanation from Caster Hains, Sang-min muttered to himself .
“I’ll decide after watching for a few more days . ”
He had been in a lot of thoughts these days .
He was in a constant concern whether or not to convert into the Asmodian class .
The race conversion quest would close soon, and once the quests were closed, there would be no way to create a new character play with the Asmodian class .
He never really decided to convert to the new class, but the recent aspects of the Dimensional war swayed his thoughts .
‘Phew, it is nice that I’m still a human race user…’
Sang-min’s gaze was fixed to the screen .
And at that moment, an excited voice came on .
[Ah, the moment I said! Bring on the 7th division! Open the 7th division screen please!]
