Chapter 299: Magic Power Stat 99 (2)

It felt like the air was getting heavier.

I didn’t know why, but it was getting harder and harder to breathe. An unknown pressure had bloomed within this atmosphere.

‘Fuck…’

Jung Hayan, too, was not doing any other threatening actions.

I had no choice but to pray that she would not do a crazy thing, like openly being hostile to Cha Hee-ra. However, the fact that her behavior was a little strange was undeniable.

I didn’t know how to put it, but it might be appropriate to say that she was acting up.

Of course, Jung Hayan and Cha Hee-ra didn’t have a vertical relationship, but Cha Hee-ra had the upper hand in this.

The madwoman with her red hair was the only anger control disorder therapist in Lindel, and the treatment was in some ways valid for Jung Hayan.

Since there was a gap between the two that could not be filled, Jung Hayan lowered her head first.

The reason why Jung Hayan suddenly took this position was simple.

’99 magic power.’

Now she must be thinking she was stronger.

‘Is this animal kingdom or something?’

Cha Hee-ra’s balancing had ended in Jung Hayan’s mind. It would be appropriate to say that it was a small struggle that had started within Jung Hayan.

I didn’t know if I was reminiscing about the revolution that took place in the Holy Empire, but it felt like seeing a young challenger showing his teeth to a male who monopolized a female.

It was natural to reminisce an intense struggle.

Of course, in my case, the genders were reversed, but the fact that I was in a similar situation was undeniable.

It was a spectacle to see the two slowly exchanging words while making the situation more uncomfortable. I bet, if these two had nothing to do with me, I would have escaped from this situation straight away.

Just like Han Sora, who was already far away.

“What?”

“I think… Oppa is u-uncomfortable… nothing else…”

“…”

“…”

“I don’t think there is no other reason…”

“You’re… m-misunderstanding…”

“…”

“…”

“I’m not misunderstanding…”

“You’re really mistaken… it’s true. I don’t mean anything else. I told you. It’s just because Oppa looks u-uncomfortable…”

“Sister, do you think I’m a moron?”

The atmosphere had changed in an instant.

Of course, I thought I had to intervene, but Cha Hee-ra blocked me, blatantly coming forward as if telling me to shut up.

In no time, she had stridden towards Jung Hayan.

There was a slight height difference, so Cha Hee-ra was looking down at Jung Hayan, and Jung Hayan was looking up at Cha Hee-ra. However, Hayan looked confident.

“You know you’re annoying me right now, right?”

“I don’t think I do…”

“…”

“…”

“Now, you’re talking to me informally.”

“I’m not sure…”

“So why are you glaring like this?”

“I’m not sure what you’re talking about. I’m j-just as usual…i-it seems like eunni disapproves of me. E-Eunni, you don’t like me, right?”

“…”

“I guess you went crazy, right?”

“… “

“I think I know why you’re doing this shit, but if you don’t want to die, look down.”

“What?”

“I won’t say it twice, newbie. If you don’t want to have your delicate neck twisted, look down right now.”

Suddenly, I felt as if I was suffocating.

Until now, I felt like it was hard to breathe, but suddenly, something seemed to be stuck in my throat.

Cha Hee-ra started threatening Jung Hayan by drawing up all her energy. I wasn’t sure if it was her magic power or killing aura, or whatever, but I just knew I had to leave right away.

It was hard to imagine how much pressure Jung Hayan would feel since even I was feeling it.

‘Fuck…’

No wonder I looked at Cha Hee-ra with my Mind’s Eye.

I could see in real-time that her intelligence stat was going down, little by little.

Of course, her strength stat was constantly rising.

She was using her unique characteristic to reduce intelligence and increase strength. It felt like they were really going to fight, and my feet moved without my knowledge.

I thought Cha Hee-ra to be at least rational, but considering that her title was a Blood-Thirsty Madwoman, a red madwoman in the Holy Empire, her temper was far from rational.

It was not an exaggeration to say that her current position and being a group leader were giving her a cosplay of someone normal.

To put it, she was a lioness with chains on her own, a mad dog who was holding her temper.

It was true that a young challenger had nudged a sleeping lion’s nose.

‘Stop it, Hayan…’

There was a reason as to why she had reigned as queen of Lindel for years.

Actually, I know what Jung Hayan was thinking. Her magic power stat was 99, and she had actually grown to an unparalleled level from before.

Judging by those who can be said to be powerful, for example, Garrosh & Cash’s Gal Oh-sik and Im Li-dan, too, were no match to Jung Hayan.

However, in Cha Hee-ra’s case, the story was a little different.

‘Strength 98.’

The basic strength was 98, and also, it was possible to move the intelligence stat to the strength stat flexibly at any time.

‘Strength 101, 103, 106.’

As the strength continued to increase, the intelligence decreased.

While I was worried that the same situation as the last time would happen, I had to look at what kind of action Jung Hayan would take.

Biting her lips tightly and her eyes filled with strange spite, her face seemed to be getting more and more angered.

This was not a catfight. It felt like bloodshed.

Hayan indirectly challenged her, and the red-haired madwoman was now trying to stamp out the new challenger.

I bet, if Jung Hayan had been a person who had nothing to do with me, the incident would have happened no matter what.

‘Does she think she’s stronger?’

She might have thought it was worth trying, but the reality was a little different.

I also didn’t doubt that Jung Hayan was strong, and I thought that she could actually be a match to Cha Hee-ra, but when I opened the gift box, I could confirm that the experience and years between them were different.

‘She’s stronger than I thought.’

Even though her class was the Mercenary Queen, considering that she didn’t carry a weapon, she was even more than that.

“…”

“…”

When they were spending some time with each other, finally, one of them started to lower their tail.

Of course, this fight’s winner was not the new challenger, but the red-haired madwoman guarding the throne.

Jung Hayan began to lower her head as she talked slowly.

‘Yes… Do that.’

As if she felt it was unfair, tears were forming in her eyes, and her hands were trembling.

Now, when she just thought that the world belonged to her, the wall she thought she could overcome blocked her once again, and it seemed that tears of injustice had burst out.

“Haaap…”

“If you were like this from the beginning, we wouldn’t have to do this. I told you when we first met.”

“Hic…”

“I don’t remember exactly what I said, but… did I tell you to learn how to kill a killing aura? I think so. Isn’t it right, honey? Today, I will teach you one more thing, sister.”

“Hic…”

“If you’re not sure, don’t try. Don’t mess with me. Do you know what I mean?”

The situation ended with Cha Hee-ra patting Hayan’s shoulder like that.

It was a very short time, but it seemed even longer to me.

Cha Hee-ra stroked Jung Hayan’s head as if it wasn’t a big deal, but the challenger wouldn’t have overreacted like that if she thought it was nothing.

In fact, it was correct to think that she moved because she felt threatened to some extent.

“Honey, you can also come here and talk to her. Well, it’s good if you comfort her, and make her understand what I’m saying…”

“Ah… okay, Nuna.”

“I said it first in case something happens later, but if this happens next time, I won’t stay still. You know what I’m saying?”

I understood this enough.

It would cost a life.
