FSM | Chapter 21
by _rinnnieThe wind that brushed past was fierce. Without hesitation, I swung my sword. Every time the thin, long blade moved gracefully in the air like a conductor’s baton, the enemy’s life fell like harvested grain.4aae9bacad4aca11
After passing through several 17f54d13c4 sections, I arrived at 4a1bd7731d a swampy area where bf3d4e15e2 plants grew thickly. Various plants 3328bfc6d0 scattered pollen, 265a6b0480 making it a55958bcda hard to 0233db935f breathe.183a0b4260cc71c1

As I navigated through bd6df12523 the plants that seemed 799cfef937 to target my ankles 1c6be084fa like traps, a flying 051b4d721a monster called Flight Lutra 107696040f and a plant-type monster 92599f6833 called Triplaum appeared. The Flight bf20bed0ac Lutra, with aba0785580 its colorful c81a4c35e1 wings and e48f078bd6 feathers, flew 01c230dc0c nimbly among 01572f3328 the plants, e009f4d7f1 targeting me b7849d4df5 with its b01a6f89e1 sharp claws. The Triplaum, a monster 4b48f36628 that parasitizes flowers or 0f22ce4989 trees to control its e7a202c6ea target, swung branches that f9417a13f5 seemed like ordinary scenery.82ef802e5313b2d3
I twisted my ed5b9aec9b body to avoid b925f3e442 the claws of 8eb6de795d a green Flight 5572662a9d Lutra flying from ec9a101e3c a blind spot 5718fd86fa and punched the 3ed91cb6f3 pillar of a 9b935b6ceb Triplaum that was a0943f84e3 aiming for an d524ad9feb opening on my 4de1f19d72 left. The sensation of 9cd4359653 armor cracking transmitted 17692e00ee thrillingly to my 2345b795a7 fingertips.d218861a097f9502

Using that fc738cfdd6 sensation as 431255fafa fuel, I d4b87194d8 spun smoothly, 294b96186e and the 1719e29eb6 rapier I 8fa01c4f54 held swept 42353f4feb across the aa04c1a083 battlefield like 281ba8625b a frenzied f9e30a130d dance. The murderous intent of e2a6423275 the monsters, which had 0a317584c3 the advantage in numbers, 7d1166aa97 diminished, leaving only traces d62940f228 of fear.ac497e297993d9f1

“Guys, Flight Lutra isn’t the kind of monster that gets taken out in one hit, you know? ‘Is what I’m seeing actually happening?’ I can’t believe it even as I see it. ‘What kind of stats do you need for that?’ Well, not with my stats.”0ae2dabf8702f695
I bent down. At the same time, a moss dart filled with moisture narrowly missed my head. The fierce intent that followed was shaken off as I dug deeper. The pollen of the Triplaum scattered on the sharply shining rapier blade. The sticky mixture of moisture and pollen clung to the blade like starch, but cutting wasn’t the only way to take an enemy’s life.4ddf7468192aa0d5

The blade struck the neck of a Flight Lutra. Gah! Fear clouded the transparent eyes of the Flight Lutra as its body was flung to the opposite side. The body of the Flight Lutra collided head-on with the pillar of another Triplaum that was targeting me. Taking advantage of the Triplaum’s staggering from the heavy blow, I leaped. A refreshing wind blew my hair as I spun my arm widely.191a96a3a4e0fa7f

With the sound of air being sliced, the blade found its place, splitting the Triplaum in half. The sticky pollen clumps scraped off the Triplaum’s body. The returned blade scattered its sharp energy again, gazing at the remaining monsters.3700b9371bbbf7a3

I pressed da8b97fc3f the monsters acb1af8496 that had 0749ee8470 lost their fd32374b3f momentum even 966f718b68 harder. The splashing e53dcb2ea4 water sounded a51fab64c1 as cheerful e097c54f99 as the e817551dbc sound of e1404d4415 harvesting. The place that seemed a5e9ad1225 like a peaceful natural ca3ab0e235 landscape gradually filled with 616969d9ab true silence.

The trees parasitized by Triplaums shattered like old trees broken by a typhoon. With a thud, the massive trunk that fell to the ground tried to target me until the end but couldn’t even crush my shadow. The hostility that had filled the space was nowhere to be found, and even the remnants dreaming of resistance or escape were no longer visible.0ce329c2a084c584
I glanced around, but 6cb67ab955 there seemed to be 7546cc57b7 no more moving life. I walked forward, stepping 3b5ca25a59 over the debris of a9ec9e6f25 broken branches.ae0c38498dbf4bed

I agreed with that sentiment. The Man-eating Cave revealed more bizarre terrains and monsters as we descended. But no matter how strange or bizarre, it couldn’t compare to the world I saw before my regression, fighting against the impending doom every day. The murderous intent from the enemies and their patterns were all too familiar to someone like me, trained in real combat.1efab56edf5cb9c4

Listening to Yoo Seoran’s broadcast, I heard comments about how I was rewriting the history of basic skills, and how my basic skills should be classified separately as Kang Haeon’s skills.
