Trapped in a Webnovel as a Good-For-Nothing

Chapter 125

Karma points were used to enhance skills. For Choi Yu-Seong, who had already raised his Wind Control skill to D-rank, there were three choices left.

Twin Snakes Biting Their Tails, Dancing Electric Doll, and Magic Spear.

With the karma points Yu-Seong had now, he could enhance two of these. The first priority for upgrading was obvious.

Of course, its going to be the Magic Spear.

The spell may have seemed somewhat disappointing, as it only granted a short period of powering up in E-rank, but the Magic Spear was so much more than that.

In the end, it's a skill that combines magic and spear techniques to reach the ultimate level.

The best thing about Magic Spear was that the user could choose their own direction of growth.

Shall I start right away?

This was the moment Choi Yu-Seong requested the upgrade of his Magic Spear skill on his system interface.

- The Magic Spear skill at E-rank is upgraded to D-rank by consuming 2,500 karma points.

Instead of a message indicating that he had risen through the ranks as a Spear Expert, Choi Yu-Seong's system interface brightened with a golden light. Afterward, messages appeared one after another in front of Choi Yu-Seong.

- The Magic Spear at D rank is a Special Skill and has improved to C- due to the influence of Spear Practioner D.

- Overpower is expressed due to the Special Skill.

- From C rank, the direction of development for Magic Spear skill can be chosen: 1. Specialization. 2. Diversity.

Choi Yu-Seong looked at the messages and grinned.

I'm really reaping great benefits thanks to the Spear Practioner.

The full potential of Magic Spear could be fully realized from C-rank, which was also known as a turning point. Therefore, the skill that originally had no significant effect was forcibly elevated, presenting the user with choices.

It was as expected, but the results unfolding before him made Choi Yu-Seong feel excited.

Wait a minute. If this continues to progress in over-grade, wouldn't I reach the same level as the Spear Kingwith pure spear skills?

In the original novel, the Spear King, Bencliffe, had been inundated with offers of sponsorship from gods associated with spears. He had ultimately become one of only ten judges in the world. Such a player had disregarded the offers of countless gods who used spears and had chosen the Magic Spear of Cu Chulainn.

Bencliffe said that as long as he had the Magic Spear, he did not fear the Demon King.

In fact, in the latter half of the original novel, he had fought the Demon King with just one spear, using his innate talent and the Magic Spear.

Ultimately, he couldn't win, but.....

He had fought the Demon King alone, inflicted a great wound that destroyed half of the Demon King's physical body, and had managed to escape alive.

Bencliffe had said that two things made up the essence of the Magic Spear.

First is the talent for the spear, and second is the special skill that provides over-power only for spear-related skills.

Coincidentally, Yu-Seong had both. Thus, simply following in Bencliffe's footsteps, he could become a much more powerful person in a world where many strong people were fighting just with spear techniques alone.

Bencliffe said he had chosen Diversity in this Choice.

As a result, Bencliffe had gained two benefits. The first was the record of countless spear techniques inherent in the Magic Spear skill. The original foundation of the Magic Spear skill was the spear technique used by Cu Chulainn, the king of Ireland. As it was mentioned earlier, the Magic Spear that had changed to a skill was created with the ultimate spear skills in mind. So, Cu Chulainn had recorded all the Spear skills that he had experienced during his lifetime in this Magic Spear skill.

In terms of the direction of skill development, if Choi Yu-Seong chose Diversity, he would be able to store all of these techniques in his mind and could watch those techniques be played out like a video at any time. And if he had a high understanding of spear skills, through this, he could constantly reach new levels continuously.

The second is the expression of various attributes.

The attribute that Choi Yu-Seong could only use for a short time now would gradually become easier to use as the rank of the Magic Spear skill increased. Later on, it would eventually change into a permanent form.

Even the number of attributes increased greatly so that various attacks could be made like magic. Bencliffe was famous for making use of this as a trick by linking and combining the attributes to make the Demon King's gap.

Certainly, if I think about the versatility brought about by Diversity, option 2 is the right choice.

However, at this point, Choi Yu-Seong thought that he would choose the opposite of Diversity which was option 1Specialization. Although it was not mentioned in the original novel, it was likely that Specialization had some kind of advantage.

If I follow the original novel, choosing Diversity like Bencliffe would be better, but in my case, Specialization has a higher probability of being helpful.

Therefore, there was no hesitation in Choi Yu-Seongs choice.

- The choice made by player Choi Yu-Seong leads to an upgrade in the C-rank Magic Spear skill, Specialization.

- The Irish style Spear skill of Cu Chulainn is passed on to player Choi Yu-Seong.

- From now on, player Choi Yu-Seong can only express one attribute through magic. Please select one. 1. Fire. 2. Water 3. Wind 4. Earth 5. Thunder 6. Wood

As the rank of Magic Spear skill rose, more options of attributes became available. In fact, even though Yu-Seong was currently only at C-rank, there were almost ten options to choose from. However, the skill that he ultimately chose had already been determined.

'Thunder.'

The moment Choi Yu-Seong chose that attribute, a blue light flickered in front of his eyes. Then, the blue light turned into a doll-like figure that held onto a spear and began to wildly unleash thunderbolts as if it were going to tear the world apart. Surely, the figures movements with the spear were not clean. It was intense and flashy, but also surprisingly practical.

Choi Yu-Seong knew that this was the true vision of Cu Chulainn. It was the spear technique he had chosen, which was the spear gods method after experiencing countless forms.

Choi Yu-Seong stared blankly at the doll-like figures movements and was suddenly enveloped by a powerful light that burst out as if the world was exploding. In its place, a new, evolved Magic Spear skill appeared in front of Choi Yu-Seong's eyes.

Inheritance Skill, Magic Spear C-.

Fusion is not possible.

Cu Chulainn, the Culanns Hound, was a hero who excelled in both Spear and magic.

The skill exceeds the limit grade due to Special Skill, Spear Practioner D.

The basic Irish Royal Court style is merged with the users Spear.

The attribute ability is fixed to thunder through Specialization selection.

When using a spear, you can continuously consume mana to display the fixed attribute.

A powerful ability is sealed. Please raise your rank to release the sealed ability.

The skill information window had become cleaner compared to before, but the effectiveness presented was difficult to compare to the previous one.

Now, Choi Yu-Seong could freely use the attribute that he was most familiar with and best at handlingthunder. Of course, he would have to keep in mind the mana consumption, but the fact that there was no time limit like before meant the removal of penalties.

Above all, Choi Yu-Seong now had a master of the spear.

'I wonder if that blue light is the remnants of Cu Chulainn?'

When he tried to think about it, Choi Yu-Seong felt his fingertips tingle as he mentally saw Cu Chulainn's spear technique like a video playing in his mind. He wanted to immediately run outside and experiment to see how well he could mimic the spear technique he saw.

- Culanns Hound looks at the player Choi Yu-Seong with a captivated gaze.

Choi Yu-Seong forced down the feeling of excitement that was rising within him as he read the message.

This is only the beginning.

Despite the fact that the original novel had shown a definite direction and answer in selecting Diversity, there was a reason why Choi Yu-Seong had chosen Specialization.

If I can control the wind by Wind Control and the thunder through the Magic Spear to perfection

Yu-Seong would be able to use the Wind Thunder Dragon God Art that was only mentioned by name in the original novel and was impossible for anyone to learn.

Although I can't be sure of its power since it wasnt described in the novel.

He clearly remembered one phrase from the description. It was the ultimate skill that could threaten even Kim Do-Jin, who had reached the EX-rank, if someone with a wicked heart were to master this.

Lets trust this.

This was a phrase said by someone who Kim Do-Jin, the arrogant returnee who was known as the strongest among others, would call his teacher.

Choi Yu-Seong once believed that mastering the technique Wind Thunder Dragon God Art was unattainable and therefore had excluded it from his personal growth guide. However, his perspective has since changed.

If I continue in this phase, it will be possible.

The more power Choi Yu-Seong had to protect himself, the better it waseven if that power was not used to fight. In that sense, his determination fired up again, and he looked at the skill interface.

There is still time, and there are still karma points left.

Now the remaining choices were the Dancing Electric Doll and the Twin Snakes Biting Their Tails. Originally, Choi Yu-Seong was deeply worried about which one to promote, but as soon as he promoted the Magic Spear skill, he was clear about his next choice.

I have enough attack skills currently.

Thus, his choice was Twin Snakes Biting Their Tails.

After raising it

He was planning to combine the final Insight and the Eye of the Beast. Since these two skills did not have a separate choice for him to make like the Magic Spear skill, Yu-Seong did not hesitate to simultaneously cast fusion and promotion. Then, he closed his eyes tightly and prayed inside his heart without checking the expected results.

Not worried about the promotion, but for fusion since I am giving up Insight. I really need a good one. Please give me something good... something really good!

Fusion often brought good results when used strategically, but this time, as it was based on such a powerful skill as Insight, Yu-Seong could not help but feel tense. That was why he had waited a long time for a skill that could be combined with Insight.

"...right, really?"

"Yes. His concentration is also good, so..."

The soft music and conversation between Jin Yu-Ri and Chae Ye-Ryeong had not been heard until now since Choi Yu-Seong was focusing on skill promotion. Yu-Seong, who had been praying with both hands tightly clasped near his heart, slowly opened his eyes after a short sigh.

Is it up? Is it?

At first, Choi Yu-Seong raised one eye heavily and looked at the blurry view between them. Then, he looked at the message that was not easily readable. He once again tried to calm down and opened both eyes wide.

... After checking the results, Choi Yu-Seong let out a stifled sound. With one hand covering half of his face, he fell into a short silence.

"Hm?"

"Boss? Are you crying?"

The two girls sitting in front looked at Choi Yu-Seong with a flustered look and asked. They did find the sound a bit too strange to be crying.

"Kuek-kuek... Kuek-kuek... "

"Yu-Seong oppa?"

"Is this...crying?" Choi Yu-Seong showed a big smile as he uncovered his face once again. With a slightly flushed expression, he said, "Guys, life is way too sweet. Sweeter than chocolate. Cough cough.

After that, Choi Yu-Seong turned away from the girls slightly bewildered looks, pulled out his cell phone, and began searching.

'Goseong Rank 3 dungeon in Gangwon-do.'

He was itching for action. It felt as if he could no longer hold himself back.
