Yoo Seodam’s current plan wasn’t a perfect one.
Even though the plan had successfully damaged Saintess Bianca’s fame and made the four male-leads confront each other, in the end, Yoo Seodam himself was also caught up in this.
Yoo Seodam was still looking at Saintess Bianca with the corner of his eyes even when the sword of Swordmaster Sodier was pointed at his neck.
If only Saintess Bianca was a normal [Protagonist], it may be possible for her to ‘regress’ right here right now with the help of the world. However, it wasn’t possible because she was an insidious person without any ability to do so.
In other words, in order for her to use ‘regression’ skill, Bianca had to prepare accordingly. And thanks to Princess Sahar, Yoo Seodam was aware of the condition to activate regression skill.
‘The condition for turning the time is to bring together the one who is closest to the Goddess and 99 faithful priestesses to pray together.’
99 priestesses together with the one loved by the Goddess had to pray desperately in order for their voices to reach Kader, the Goddess of Time and Season.
[Crisis has occurred to the Protagonist ‘Bianca’!]
A crisis befall upon her, however Yoo Seodam wasn’t sure how the probability would manifest for a ‘transmigrator’. Perhaps, the probability would strengthen [Charm Monopoly (SSS)] skill, which was the strongest characteristic for the romance fantasy genre.
‘I have to stop it…!’
As Yoo Seodam tried to move his fingertips, and the sword of the strongest swordsman, Sodier, moved closer towards his neck. In addition, three other male-lead were also keeping each other in check. Since their gazes were all directed towards the Saintess, Yoo seodam thought it would be impossible for him to sneak out of this fight and catch Saintess Bianca.
In the end, he had no other choice but to fight.
Yoo Seodam current level was 145. He was few levels short from becoming an S rank. Meanwhile, all the male-lead were around level 150 or even higher.
The difference between level 145 which equal to A rank and level 150 which equal to S rank was merely 5 levels. However, it could be said that those 5 levels difference was akin to heaven and earth.
The power of A rank was still considered at the level of human being. Meanwhile, S rank was something beyond the limits of human. They become a completely different existence.
Although Yoo Seodam lived most of his life as a F rank, he had met countless S rank superhumans. He also had traveled around countless worlds and became aware of how much power those who had level higher than 150 levels could exert.
Of course, Yoo Seodam had some experience in dealing with S rank, SS rank or even SSS rank enemy. However, whenever he did, he had always avoided a frontal battle and fought with various things that could be used as his advantage.
In fact, when Salvatore Constantini, a SS rank superhuman, went on a rampage, Yoo Seodam succeeded in subduing him by using dozens of abandoned tanks and a power plant.
However, right now, there’s nothing like that. In addition, he had 4 male-lead to take care of.
Yoo seodam was sure he would die if he fought fairly right now.
However, the fight was unavoidable.
‘…..I have no choice but to fight unfairly!’
Yoo Seodam decided to take advantage of the fact that the four male-lead weren’t checking on himself, but each other.
Beep!
Bam!!
“…..Ugh!”
Sodier, who was aiming his sword towards Yoo Seodam’s neck, swiftly retreated as he felt a shockwave erupted around his body. If only he felt a slight movement of mana, Sodier was sure he would be able to cut it down. But unbeknownst to him, Yoo Seodam was using something that utilizes ether not mana.
Sodier hurriedly fix his posture and tried to cut Yoo Seodam down, but it was already too late. Yoo Seodam was already rolling away from him using the momentum of the shock.
Yoo Seodam, who successfully move away from Sodier, threw a lot of landmines on the floor to obstructs Sodier’s path. He also pulled his brand-new gun, ‘Winchester 777’ out of his inventory.
Winchester 777 was an alternate version of Mega Shooter. Unlike Mega Shooter which uses ether bullet as its ammo, Winchester 777 uses mana bullet for its ammo. It was also much lighter and convenient compared to Mega Shooter. However, it also had its own disadvantage. Only one bullet could be loaded at a time.
However, it posed no problem for him who now had an A rank physical ability.
Even while Yoo Seodam was in the midst of jumping in the air, he could easily load a ‘bouncing shot’ into the gun and aim at Tower Master Harayun in one fluid motion.
Sensing an attack that will soon befall upon him, Harayun casted a blue round shield in a hurry. However, Yoo Seodam had already pointed his gun towards him.
Yoo Seodam’s world started moving slowly as he activated his [Concentration (S+)] skill. After a round of calculating, he fired his gun, aiming it at one exact spot.
Boom!
The moment the bullet flew and hit Harayun’s shield, it bounced away and flew straight into Emperor Serael’s abdomen.
“Keuk! What are you doing!”
“No, it wasn’t something that I did!”
Since Serael had S-rank stamina, Yoo Seodam attack wasn’t enough to scratch him. However, as long as he could make Harayun and Serael fight each other, it’s all good.
As Yoo Seodam rolled over the floor again, he loaded one more bullet. This time, his target was Pope Cain, However, thanks to the swordsman Sodier, who had already aimed his swords towards Yoo Seodam’s neck once again, he couldn’t take a shot at Pope Cain.
‘This crazy…did he just ignorantly run through the minefield?!’
Chaeang!!
The sharp sound of metal rang as Winchester and sword collided.
Even though he had to step back for a moment because he needs to focus on the battle of strength he’s in right now, Yoo Seodam still had no intention of letting the Pope go.
If the bullet doesn’t work, he just has to use his mouth.
“Oh! there! The Pope is aiming for the Saintess!”
When Yoo Seodam’s voice reached both the Tower Master and the Emperor, both of them quickly focused their attention towards the Pope. Immediately after that, Sodier’s sword clashed against the armor on his stomach
Pajikjik!!
[Remaining battery: 61%]
With only that one sword attack, about half of the ether shield in Yoo Seodam’s armor flew away.
Yoo Seodam hurriedly attached a 10cm ether blade at the end of Winchester. Since the blade output rank was around 1st grade, it was possible for Yoo Seodam to fight a S rank even as an A rank who couldn’t use an Aura blade.
Immediately after one collision, Yoo Seodam’s world slowed down once again.
After blocking Sodier’s sword, Yoo Seodam quickly rotated the Winchester and reload a bullet. After that, he pointed his gun at Sodier’s neck and pull the trigger.
“……..!”
Fwoosh!!!
Sodier avoided the incoming bullets by bending his head to the side. However, that wasn’t the only attack that coming. Right after the bullet flew past him, a sword struck his chest. Not only that, right after the blade struck, Yoo Seodam flew towards his side, and shot another round of bullets before completely moving away from him.
“…You use such a mysterious weapon!”
With the combination of his swordsmanship, magic, and shooting, Yoo Seodam was able to enter the ranks of superhuman. However, If even one of them was missing, his combat power would be reduced tremendously.
It was only natural for him to be pushed by the experts of close fighting when he fought in close quarter. The same applied too in the case of long-distance fighting, Yoo Seodam would be naturally pushed back by a pure magician.
So, Yoo Seodam created his own style of fighting.
He covered all of his shortcomings with swords, guns, and magic enchanted bullets.
Pow!
His bullets were by no means ordinary.
The ‘bouncing bullet’ he shot earlier towards Harayun was also a magic bullet that was specially crafted to bounce when it meets a mana barrier. Yoo Seodam also had some bullets that would change into a pillar of fire or a small tornado once it hits the target. Alone, it might not have enough lethal power, however, it was enough to confuse Yoo Seodam’s enemy.
Every time Yoo Seodam’s Winchester and Sodier’s sword met each other, Yoo Seodam would rotate his gun soon after and continued to load another bullet.
Even though the number of bullets he had was limited, because it was personally enchanted by Yekaterina, Yoo Seodam didn’t even think about it.
<Seodam. Tower Master is located 7m away from the N60 direction.>
When he heard the location of the other male-lead, Yoo Seodam deliberately went there to let their attack collide with each other’s.
Kwaaang!!
“Keuk! You… YOU…!”
“It’s a mistake I couldn’t avoid!!”
Their attacks tangled and inflicted damage on each other. In addition to that, there were a lot of ether mines spread around the temple that couldn’t be detected by their magic. They could explode at any time.
“Damn it….!”
Sodier’s composure gradually broke. Even though a battle of swords was dangerous, he had confidence to enjoy it as much as possible. But his opponent kept doing something that irritated him.
Using his quick expert-level swordsman’s footwork, he jumped around and installed a weird magic that sparked electricity, erupted flame pillars, caused the ground to shake or collapse, and ultimately caused confusion.
In addition, he deliberately ran where the other three were fighting and tangled everyone’s attacks, and after causing the chaos, he would run away alone.
“Ahhh!!”
Eventually, Sodier, who couldn’t contain his anger anymore, released his full power.
A swordmaster’s aura was something that could easily be controlled. It was also able to form any shape that Sodier wanted. Until now, he was holding back and tried to not use all of his strength, but now it was impossible to do so anymore.
“That damn, ignorant guy…!”
As one man began to show his power, the other male-leads also poured out all of their strength.
As a huge fireball poured down from the sky, the Third Temple was halved in just one blow, and when a sword was lightly swung, all the pillars in the building were cut.
<The male-leads have revealed their original power! Hunter Yoo Seodam it’s time to get serious!>
“I…..AM…..ALREADY…..DOING…..MY….BEST….SINCE….THE….BEGINNING! Ahhhhhh!”
One shrimp that annoyed the four large whales was forced to flee from one place to another while being swept away by the massive currents they produced.
* * *
Meanwhile, Saintess Bianca, who sneaked out of the temple, ran around the capital quickly.
Tuk.. Tuk.. Tuk..
Woooshhh!!!
Bianca was already anxious when she saw the dark cloud the first time. But eventually a light shower started to pour from the sky.
She was annoyed by her wet clothes, but she couldn’t just stop.
‘It’s wrong. It shouldn’t be like this.’
She admits it, she was blinded by greed.
At first, she just wanted to live, so she tried to run away from the capital. However, she realized that if she took advantage of four male who showed interest in her, she could bury Princess Sahar, take her place as ‘heroine’, and live peacefully.
That’s why, at some point all she did was trying to bury Princess Sahar. And when she succeeded to some extent, she was already in a situation where she could live well enough. However, greed struck her. She deceived and dazzled the male-leads with the sweet words saying ‘you are my only one’ because she didn’t want to let even one man go.
She just realized that she shouldn’t have done that.
If only she could turn the time…
‘If that’s the case, I have confidence that I will never be noticed!’
Bianca clenched his fist. In the first place, four were enough, but one more was greedy. If it weren’t for that man, this would never have happened.
Bianca fastened her step. She was on her way to the temple to pray to Goddess Kader to send her back to the past, just like what Princess Sahar did in the [Original].
She was sure that Goddess Kader would accept her prayer because she was a ‘Saintess’.
Slam!
“Ugh!”
“…!”
While running without hesitation, Bianca bumps into someone. However, unlike herself, who fell to the floor, the other person did not fall.
When Bianca looked up and checked, she saw Princess Sahar, who was running in the rain just like herself.
“…Saintess, where’s Knight Yoo Seodam?”
Princess Sahar had a very urgent expression for some reason. It was as if something went wrong.
However, since Bianca was not aware of that, she immediately got up and ran again towards the ‘Church of Time’ temple.
Creaaaak!
As she stepped through the door of the church, hundreds of believers who had been praying at the moment turned their heads and looked at Bianca.
“Saintess-nim?”
“What the…! You are all wet in the rain! Come on, come here!”
All in all, there were currently 500 believers in front of Bianca. 99 devout priestesses and 401 believers. All of them were followers of the Goddess of Time and Season, Kader.
Bianca exhaled, before talking in a calm but powerful voice.
“……everyone, listen.”
As the Saintess, who is still drenched from the rain, starts speaking, everyone turns silent.
“From now on, I will say a very special prayer. You could ask some questions about this later. But….. Since ‘faith’ is an important aspect for this prayer, I would be grateful if everyone believes in me and follows me.”
The amount of ‘faith’ was really important. It was enough to have only one Saintess who was the closest existence to the Goddess and 99 priestesses. But now, there were even 401 believers there, Bianca was pretty sure she would succeed.
She approached the statue of Goddess with her solemn, watery steps, and the fall to her knees.
Then Bianca politely gathered her hands in front of her chest.
Wooonnggg!!
As pure white light began to pour out toward her saint, anyone present bowed their heads with solemn expressions, and the Saintess, with a voice full of sincerity, asked the Goddess of Time and Season, Kader.
‘Goddess, if you can hear me… Please accept my request…! Help me start over again!’
On a rainy night, a hymn sung by a girl resonated throughout the city.
