This tiger is Kim Shinrok’s light skill.

There’s no doubt about it.

I didn’t expect it to be wrapped in lightning, but it wasn’t strange considering that Hongryong too is covered in flames.

But there was something I couldn’t understand.

‘When and where did he summon it?’

When Yeom Junyeol uses his light skill, a subspace opens where Hongryong appears through a gap.

In this process, light, energy waves, heat, and others are emitted.

Anyone near him would know right away.

Summoning Hongryong is a colorful and versatile light skill, but it makes it difficult to be sneaky.

On the other hand, Kim Shinrok’s summoned Nwiho (Thunder Tiger) didn’t even leave traces.

‘Yeom Junyeol wouldn’t have noticed if he didn’t climb on top of Hongryong. It’s like when Jeokho’s using red smoke.’

The Nwiho summoned by Kim Shinrok was wrapped in red lighting similar to Jeokho, and his presence was hardly felt as if he used Jeokho’s red smoke.

Although it was detected by sight, being able to summon it quietly can be very advantageous in fighting.

“Jo Euishin-gun, how do you feel about seeing my light skill?”

While I was paying attention to Nwiho, Kim Shinrok was close by.

Perhaps the provocation worked too well, Kim Shinrok’s morale seemed very high.

As I tried to burn the wall to prevent Kim Shinrok from stepping, he talked from over there.

“Are you going to block me with the Tiger Clan’s power again this time?”

Kim Shinrok succeeded in using his light skill, but his weakness as a descendant remains.

It was simple to beat Kim Shinrok, but there was no need to aim for that weakness.

“No. I’ve achieved my goal.”

Hwaaak! Fwiijik!

Behind, the flames launched by Hongryong and Yeom Junyeol and the lightning hit each other, causing an explosion.

Hongryong searched hard to shake off Nwiho trying to get to his body, but it wasn’t enough.

Regardless of being burned, Nwiho climbed onto Hongryong and tried to extend his claws toward Yeom Junyeol while the latter continued to counter with flames.

In the meantime, the flames of Hongryong and the lightning of Nwiho collided, emitting heat and light.

‘I have to help Yeom Junyeol, but the situation isn’t looking good.’

I couldn’t afford to deal with Kim Shinrok on my own.

Even while I was thinking this, the tack thrown by Kim Shinrok brushed my hair, while his throwing knife cut Hongryong’s flame.

“Oh no!”

As Nwiho approached, Yeom Junyeol plunged Hongryong.

At this rate, he’ll be beaten by Nwiho.

I decided to leave Kim Shinrok to my Hongryong and put down Yeom Junyeol for now.

But Nwiho didn’t even look.

Grrrrr!

Nwiho roared and raised his lightning output.

Even though I was a little far away, the intense light covered the whole ground.

It was a bolt that I can’t imagine would come from a quiet tiger without a sign.

In order to protect Yeom Junyeol, I sent Hongryong to wrap around Nwiho.

As Yeom Junyeol flew into the air, the blood disappeared from his face at the sight of Hongryong falling in despair.

Fwiijik, fwijiiik…

When Hongryong couldn’t block Nwiho anymore, the tiger headed to Yeom Junyeol next.

Not rushing right away, rather, like a tiger thinking about how to bite the prey that he’s trapped.

It emitted stronger energy waves than the lightning that erased Hongryong.

Yeom Junyeo intended to calmly fight using his flames, but he didn’t seem to be able to do anything against the lightning that defeated Hongryong.

‘Is he thinking of using lightning on Yeom Junyeol?’

Yeom Junyeool lost.

And I’ll lose if I don’t use Sangbosimgeumpa or Baekho-gun’s power.

Victory is still tilted, but the movements of Nwiho were unusual.

And something else became strange.

“Professor Kim Shinrok?”

“Uh…”

Soon after Hongryong disappeared, Kim Shinrok’s physical movements became dull.

The flame that his knife couldn’t extinguish burned the hem of his shirt, and Kim Shinrok stumbled a little.

When I focused on him, I saw his energy waves in disarray.

‘Is it because he hasn’t used his light skill in a long time?’

It won’t be easy to summon Nwiho since it runs wilder than Hongryong.

It’s been a long time since he summoned Nwiho, and he fought against Hongryong while dealing with me.

Perhaps Nwiho is out of Kim Shinrok’s control right now.

There were times when Hongryong acted a little out of control in PMH.

Despite ordering it to attack enemies, Hongryong’s movements didn’t take regard for players’ intention.

I immediately stopped dealing with Kim Shinrok and rode Hongryong toward Yeom Junyeol.

<Light skill Player Identity activated.>

Shwiiik!

I took out the Fate of the Unknown card, which I hadn’t intended to use again, and invoked Baekho-gun’s power.

I was going to use Baekho-gun’s power to stop Nwiho, but I don’t know if I can because there’s quite a distance and the tiger is too fast.

Yeom Junyeol, prepared to fight until the end, was about to launch flames.

Maybe it’s thinking of attacking Yeom Junyeol before I can intervene, but Nwiho blew out lightning.

Fwaaat!

The light covered the view before I arrived in front of Nwiho.

My power will belatedly stop the descendant.

I stood in front of Yeom Junyeol, bracing myself for a shock.

However, it did not come.

Shwoooo….

As the light subsided, I saw someone in front.

Hwang Jiho and Cheongryong.

Hwang Jiho’s boundary stopped Nwiho, and Cheongryong’s blue flames offset the lightning.

“That’s it for the battle. Good work.”

Hwang Jiho and Cheongryong, who were just acting immature earlier, acted like the heads of their own clans, giving a sense of security.

Meanwhile, after pouring lightning, Kim Shinrok’s complexion changed, and ran this way.

He finally sighed with relief after confirming that Yeom Junyeol was safe, and in the meantime, Nwiho’s ears folded and carefully looked this way.

“I’m sorry, I’ve gone too far.”

“No, I’ve learned a lot from you, Professor Kim Shinrok. Thank you for the battle.”

“Didn’t Hwangho tell you to fight without concession? I agreed, and Junyeol did as well.”

Cheongryong didn’t seem too pleased, while Yeom Junyeol expressed gratitude for the good training.

Still, Kim Shinrok didn’t seem settled.

He held his head low, guilty about the fact that he almost got Yeom Junyeol seriously injured.

Hwang Jiho didn’t defend Kim Shinrok, but he changed the flow of the story appropriately.

“Thanks to you, Kim Shinrok was able to summon Nwiho. I ought to express my gratitude. Thank you, you’ve worked hard.”

“It feels like Euishin did most of the teaching…”

Yeom Junyeol smiled at me while his words trailed off. freewe(b)novel.c(o)m

I don’t think he liked my attempt to block Nwiho’s attack.

However, it was the best choice because I could use the Tiger Clan’s power, which meant I would be less damaged.

No one was hurt as a result, so there was nothing wrong.

“You tried to protect me again, Euishin-ah.”

Again?

Is he referring to the broadcasting station incident?

But I was defending Yong Jegun at that time.

Still, it was an attack that aimed at Yeom Junyeol, so that could be said too.

Yeom Junyeol seemed dissatisfied as he tried to say something else, but Hwang Jiho spoke first.

“You guys can come out too.”

Who is he talking to?

Immediately after Nwiho appeared, I was wary of the surroundings but didn’t feel anything.

‘Someone better at hiding their presence than Nwiho and is worthy to be present here.’

The answer came up quickly.

Swoooo.

Red fog rose and scattered around Baekho-gun.

As the red fog cleared, Jeokho with an emotional expression, and Yong Jegun with an ecstatic face were seen.

The two of them must’ve been watching all this time.

Did they hide to surprise Kim Shinrok?

But why wasn’t I informed?

Looking at Hwang Jiho’s expression, I think he did it just to see my reaction.

“…Oh?”

Kim Shinrok raised his head in surprise.

He was just standing in despair, but Nwiho, who possesses his power, found his father and ran toward him.

Nwiho sat down in front of Jeokho and looked up.

Kim Shinrok was perplexed as if he couldn’t think of de-summoning Nwiho.

“I can’t believe the day came when I can see my son’s light skill…!”

Jeokho stroked Nwiho’s head full of emotions.

Nwiho closed his eyes and accepted the touch.

Fwijik!

Lightning sparked in Jeokho’s hand, and perhaps because he deals with lightning himself, his hands didn’t burn.

Still, it would be better to wrap his hand with energy waves before petting Nwiho, but Jeokho firmly touched him with his bare hands.

“I haven’t seen Kim Shinrok’s summoned tiger in a long time.”

Yong Jegun sat with his knees bent next to Nwiho and tried to poke his tail.

Nwiho cleared him by swinging his tail once.

Of course, Yong Jegun didn’t retract his hand.

Hwang Jiho laughed at Kim Shinrok, who was looking at Nwiho dumbfoundedly.

“Hahaha! Were you surprised! It would be a shame if Jeokho didn’t see Kim Shinrok use his light skill. Someone recommended to hide him so you wouldn’t get nervous.”

“But why Professor Yong Jegun?”

Yong Jegun answered my question.

“I happened to know about your plan and I thought it would be fun to go with Jeokho-ssi.”

How could he have found out by accident?

He must’ve poked around when Yeom Junyeol was invited to the Tiger Clan’s territory.

And then he must’ve talked to Jeokho and found out using his manipulative words.

Jeokho would’ve talked since he’s treated Yong Jegun better after his replay.

‘I don’t know if it’s medicine or poison that I wasn’t aware of them. I wonder if it’s good that Kim Shinrok used his light skill.’

Kim Shinrok almost had an accident because it’s been a while since he used his light skill, but now that he’s able to use it again, it will be easier to train him to get the hang of it.

Looking at his current momentum, he might be able to use his summoning light skill more skillfully than Yeom Junyeol.

“I intend to celebrate and commemorate my descendant using his light skill again. If you don’t have dinner plans, come join us.”

I decided to follow Hwang Jiho’s words because it was impossible to do more training today.

I don’t think it’s a bad idea to have dinner with Kim Shinrok together.

Hwang Jiho added a word.

“The more people there are to celebrate, the better. Other than the Dragon Clan guests, I will also call the new member of the Tiger Clan.”

There’s only one person.

Hwang Jiho wants to introduce Ahn Dain to the Dragon Clan.
