Chapter 291
It was the best Crescent Moon Cut that Hyeonu could fire . Reaching a size of dozens of meters long, it was powerful enough to separate the upper and lower bodies of the dark elves who attacked him . The meadow turned bright red, and the grasses that boasted a deep vitality were filled with ominous energy .
The number of dark elves killed by Crescent Moon Cut was close to 100 . Of course, it wasn’t that big a figure compared to the total number of dark elves . There were nearly thousands of dark elves in the war . However, Hyeonu had taken hold of the momentum, and he was overwhelming them . More than a hundred dark elves were killed by a single human being . There was also nothing they could do; they couldn’t properly use their swords or magic .
“Charge!!! Kill them all! Kill all of them!” The knights didn’t miss the advantage that Hyeonu had created .
They were veterans on the battlefield and commanded the soldiers as they jumped into battle . Meanwhile, Hyeonu was still engaged in battle with the dark elves . Even so, he continued to stand out like a jewel in the midst of trash .
The Mysterious Sky Sword emitted a black light, and the dark elves fell while bleeding . After that, the Mysterious Sky Sword continued to cut steadily through the air . A familiar voice broke the momentum of the Mysterious Sky Sword: “You are stronger than I thought? Why didn’t I know you before? Were you recruited recently?”
The man with a bright smile—it was the previous solider . He was covered in red all over . Hyeonu was also covered in red blood, but it was all the blood of the dark elves . Based on the man’s torn armor, some of the blood on his body was certain to belong to him .
“Take this . ” Hyeonu handed the man a small glass bottle .
It was a potion from Hyeonu’s inventory . Hyeonu himself had little need for it .
“As expected, you are a new recruit, so your supplies are plentiful . I ran out a while ago . . . ” The man instantly drank the potion he received from Hyeonu, drinking it all until the very last drop .
“Thank you . I will make sure to repay the gift I received today . ” The soldier disappeared into the battlefield with these words .
‘Will it end soon?’
During Hyeonu’s brief conversation with the soldier, the vanguard had pushed considerably into the dark elves .
[Time remaining - 2:09:43]
It was 30 minutes after Hyeonu opened the battle using Mysterious Sky Range . The tide had already tilted a lot, and the imperial army was pushing the dark elves overwhelmingly .
‘10 minutes . . . ’
It was almost an hour since Hyeonu’s mission started . He had to finish the mission within this hour . That way, he would get better rewards . Everyone knew that the shorter it took to complete the mission, the better the reward would be . Why did Hyeonu come to Senu? The rewards—it was all because of this . He knew how to get the best reward and had the corresponding ability to do so . Then that meant it was natural for him to do so .
As Hyeonu stood still, someone approached him . It was Tang-E who looked like a blond boy .
“Master dude, what is it? Why aren’t you tired now? Master dude, you seem to have eaten more meat . I’m already so weak . . . ” Tang-E hit Hyeonu’s waist like he didn’t care about the blood on Hyeonu’s body .
“No, it isn’t like that, dude . ” Hyeonu couldn’t help laughing . It was Tang-E’s charm that made him forget he was doing Senu’s mission and that he was currently on the battlefield .
“Now you should just attack . Don’t spare your strength . If there is a problem, go back to Bung Bung Island . Got it?” Hyeonu immediately calmed down and gave orders to Tang-E . They could enjoy themselves after the mission .
“I understand . Believe in me . I will get rid of those black-skinned fools,” Tang-E replied coolly like he had been frustrated . He seemed to be full of motivation .
“What? What are you saying?” Hyeonu asked .
The problem was Tang-E’s radical tone . Hyeonu had heard it the other day, and now he couldn’t stop himself from frowning .
“Who did you learn this from? What is this?” Hyeonu questioned seriously, unable to laugh . He could try again if he failed Senu, but Tang-E’s bad habits needed to be corrected now .
“Who taught you to speak like this? I don’t remember saying such words,” Hyeonu rebuked Tang-E .
Tang-E rolled his eyes and avoided giving an answer as he knew that he had done something wrong .
“You, I’ll see you later . ” Hyeonu ultimately promised to have the talk next time . It was because Tang-E clearly had no intention of answering right now .
‘I will give him something and try to coax him to give me an answer . ’
If Hyeonu knew who said it, he would stop them from meeting Tang-E . They absolutely should not meet ever . The meeting couldn’t be allowed until they entered the ground .
***
Hyeonu’s anger was released onto the dark elves .
“Die!”
While thinking about the person who taught Tang-E such a rude word, Hyeonu swung the Mysterious Sky Sword . Magic power rose, and the dark elves fell . The battle ended there . Hyeonu’s tremendous performance spurred the Luos Empire to victory . Then the world stopped the moment the soldiers walked toward Hyeonu . Only Hyeonu and Tang-E could move in the stopped world .
[Time remaining - 2:01:32]
The time remaining appeared in the air with a golden glow . Simultaneously, the polite voice rang through the space once again, -You have passed the given test perfectly . Compensation will be paid before moving on to Stage 3 .
[Experience has been acquired . ]
[You have leveled up . ]
[All health and magic power have been restored . ]

Before coming to Senu, Hyeonu’s experience bar was white and empty .
‘The level up is good . ’
He received a great amount of experience . Hyeonu was currently level 251 . On average, it took two to three days to gain one level . Now, he leveled up just from passing the first two stages of Senu . Yet this wasn’t the end .
[Skill proficiency has been acquired . ]
[The proficiency of all combat related skills will increase . ]
[The skill proficiency of Attributes Enhancement has increased to C+ . ]
[The skill proficiency of Fighting Energy Emission has increased to D- . ]
[The skill proficiency of Area Proclamation has increased to E+ . ]
[The skill proficiency of Pure Energy Manifestation has increased to B . ]
The endless messages announcing the increase in skill proficiency filled his field of view . It was dizzying . Despite that, there was something else that caught Hyeonu’s eye .
[The skill Mysterious Sky Demonic Art’s rank has risen to 7 stars . ]
[A skill has been created . ]
‘The skill proficiency of Mysterious Sky Demonic Art increased?’
The Mysterious Sky Demonic Art had been stagnant for some time . The rank hadn’t risen any further after reaching six stars . In fact, it didn’t mean much for the skill to have a rank of five or six stars; its biggest significance was being the stage before reaching seven stars .
On the other hand, the seven-star rank was distinctly different from the six-star rank . It was because there would be one new skill .
‘Skill Window . ’
Hyeonu hastily opened the skill window to check Mysterious Sky Demonic Art .

Just then, another message appeared .
[Since the Mysterious Sky Demonic Art has been changed by the Book of Random Luck Enhancement, you can use Mysterious Sky Demonic Strength as a skill if you call out ‘Mysterious Sky Demonic Strength’, but this only applies to the first use . ]
‘Right . I’ve enhanced the Mysterious Sky Demonic Art . ’
It was now so comfortable to use that he had forgotten he needed tremendous effort to use the Mysterious Sky Demonic Art .
“I’m glad . Let me try it once . ” Hyeonu sighed with relief . In this sense, the developers of Quency were still realistic . How could he implement a skill he had never used before?

‘How to do this . . . ’
Hyeonu had another problem . Should he use the Mysterious Sky Demonic Strength and practice now? Or should he leave it as a treasure until he really needed to use it? Regardless, his worries didn’t last long, and he drew out the Mysterious Sky Sword immediately .
Tang-E, who was approaching Hyeonu, stepped back . He mistakenly believed that Hyeonu was aiming the Mysterious Sky Sword at him . ‘Crazy Master dude . He is even pulling out his sword . ’
After staring at Hyeonu for a few seconds, Tang-E nodded decisively . Then a magic circle with abnormal patterns appeared below his feet and swallowed him . Tang-E fled to Bung Bung Island . Hyeonu was unaware of it and read the explanation of the Mysterious Sky Demonic Strength once again . This was his last check of the skill before using it .
[Mysterious Sky Demonic Strength: Shoots strong magic . ]
‘If it is shot . . . Does this mean it has the same process as Fireball?’
‘Shoots’—there weren’t many skills that were described like this . It was like firing a cannon or a bullet .
Of course, Hyeonu only thought up to here . The background of Arena was a fantasy world, so it was magic that was being shot out, not bullets and shells . In fact, this was insignificant; the most important thing was something else .
‘Focus, focus!’
Saving the one-time use opportunity was unimportant . The most important thing was to know how the skill was used .
“Mysterious Sky Demonic Strength,” Hyeonu carefully spoke the name of the skill like he was chanting a spell . Magic power rushed to the end of the Mysterious Sky Sword, and Hyeonu felt it calmly . Soon, enough magic power was gathered, and it started to change, compressing into a small bead .
The bead, which was the size of an adult’s thumb, shook . Then the gathered magic power was released and shot in the direction at which the Mysterious Sky Sword was pointing . It was like a laser . The black ray destroyed everything in its way without leaving a single trace behind . This was a terrifying power .
As he held the Mysterious Sky Sword, Hyeonu’s hands trembled, and there was a lot of joy in his eyes . It turned out that the skill had the ability to deal powerful damage in an instant .
‘Good, good . ’
“Really good . ”
Hyeonu’s body shook with joy . He had often felt a sense of regret these days . Although he was more powerful than anyone else, his lack of attack skills was painful .
Hyeonu only had two attack skills—Crescent Moon Cut and Mysterious Sky Range . There was also Heavy Blow and Bash, but he rarely used them anymore . It was more efficient to cut twice . At such a time, the Mysterious Sky Demonic Strength appeared .
‘I need to practice it quickly . ’
The sensation of the skill’s power was still lingering at his fingertips . He had to practice using the Mysterious Sky Demonic Strength as much as possible before this sensation disappeared .
‘By the way, I think I’m forgetting something . . . ’
Hyeonu shook his head a few times and injected magic power into the Mysterious Sky Sword . It wasn’t too late to think after using up all his magic power .
