Trapped in a Webnovel as a Good-For-Nothing

Chapter 153

After he found a way, Yu-Seong approached Kim Do-Jin while avoiding Emilias non-stop attacks.

To avoid getting caught in the spider web, we've been forced to stay separate until now. But if I want to succeed with this skill, I have no choice but to come together with him.

Kim Do-Jin had been avoiding Yu-Seong this entire time, so he furrowed his brows when Yu-Seong started to approach him. He had a questioning gaze.

Why?

In response to Do-Jins questioning gaze, Yu-Seong gave a light nod. He thought that Do-Jin should be able to understand the meaning of his nod. However, Do-Jin continued to distance himself even after seeing Yu-Seongs gesture.

No way, cant he read the meaning of my nod?

Yu-Seong read Kim Do-Jin's gaze.

It's dangerous if you get too close. Keep your distance as much as possible.

Yu-Seong was on the verge of exploding inside.

No, that's not what I meant!

At that moment, a flash of red light swept by Yu-Seong and destroyed half of a three-story building in an instant. If it had been a direct hit, he would have been killed.

Yu-Seong felt sweat running down his back. He tried to avoid the spider web while clicking his tongue in frustration.

For how long can I keep running away?

Emilia looked relaxed while in the offensive position. This was understandable since the two men had no way of approaching her or escaping from her attacks. The two men also had lower ranks compared to her, so their physical strength would clearly be limited. As time went by, this fight was not in the mens interest at all.

The original goal was just to drag out time and so it didn't matter, but

The situation was different now. Yu-Seong wanted to defeat Emilia. Even if he couldn't kill her, he wanted to inflict serious damage that would at least temporarily disable her.

After thinking about it, Yu-Seong realized why Kim Do-Jin was avoiding him.

That brat Hes just hoping to drag out the battle!

Would the sacrifice of countless people in the city matter to him? For Do-Jin, who had fought countless wars in the other world, the deaths of many people were a common experience. In other words, the novels crazy main character was not even feeling sadness, let alone anger, in this situation.

For Do-Jin, people dying in battle was just an expected outcome. After all, he only had a few victories where sacrifice hadnt been necessary.

In fact, Yu-Seong was aware of this fact when he had first been possessed by the novel. But he had forgotten all about it after meeting Kim Do-Jin a few times and having shared some emotional conversations with the man.

Like a fool

Kim Do-Jin had come from another world to defeat the Demon King, but his motivation was not that of a hero. The reason he wanted to kill the Demon King was simply to return to Earth and take revenge. Sadly, he lacked a sense of justice and passion. Perhaps he only had such motivations when his journey to this world had just begun.

Since the original novel did not describe the story of his ambition to defeat the Demon King in detail.

Only a simple description had been given to set up the premise that Kim Do-Jin would invade this world, defeat the Demon King, and then return to earth. The entire journey would not be an easy one, even though that was an easy assumption to make.

Kim Do-Jin, a somewhat intelligent young man from South Korea, suddenly found himself living in a completely different world. It was a tough and savage place where civilization was far behind modern times.

I must have what I desire, no matter what.

The world was ready for Kim Do-Jin to become a hero.

'Dying is better than losing.'

If he lost, Kim Do-Jin would lose everything. He couldn't even return to his original world for revenge, and he would face complete annihilation without even leaving his name behind. That was why Kim Do-Jin couldn't afford to consider his own defeat even once.

'The death of others...wouldn't matter as long as he could win.'

Suddenly, this realization scorched the side of Yu-Seong's heart. He had no idea why, but he immediately invoked Wind Flow and followed Kim Do-Jin.

Do-Jin widened his eyes in surprise and turned to look at Yu-Seong, whose left thigh had been punctured and was bleeding profusely.

Yu-Seong was greatly shocked by his latest injury, but he didnt even care.

"You..." said Do-Jin as he looked at Yu-Seong with burning eyes. He reached out to grab Yu-Seong by his collar.

In a flash, Yu-Seong turned to dodge Do-Jin's hand and the red beam that came from behind. Then, he pressed his lips against Kim Do-Jins ear.

While slicing through the red beams with his sword head-on, Do-Jin suddenly said, "I understand."

"What?" Yu-Seong, assuming that Kim Do-Jin would dismiss any unnecessary emotions, blurted out in surprise.

"But is there a way?"

Fortunately, Kim Do-Jin understood Yu-Seongs intentions accurately.

If so, there was no need for a long-winded conversation. Yu-Seong no longer had any doubts. He simply said whatever popped up in his head. He said to Do-Jin, "Just open the path somehow. I'll be right next to you."

"And then?"

"Use the spell Isolation and Blink on me. Can you do that?"

You? Do-Jin trailed off as his eyes twitched.

The simultaneous use of Isolation and Blink, which could be considered as close-range spatial movement, was almost impossible. In fact, if you only looked at the amount of mana needed, a B-rank hunter could easily do it, but the problem was the calculation process for unleashing that magic.

The arrangement of the Runic alphabet, the accumulation of formulas, and the release of that magic as a magic circle

Regardless of the amount of magic, in reality, a hunter had to be an S-rank to use the magic. In the world of [Modern Master Returns], even the few magicians there had given the nickname of 'transcendent spells' to the two spells. Although the two skills were possible to learn at B-rank, they were practically impossible to use. If both spells, Isolation and Blink, failed, the target of the magic could go missing in space and never return.

That was how dangerous the magic was, which explained why even S-rank magicians had to do their best to maintain their composure in battle. Of course, the use of magic was incredibly taxing, and even the simultaneous casting of two spells was considered to be an immensely difficult task. However, Kim Do-Jin was able to do it.

'He did it after reaching S-rank in the [Modern Master Returns].'

This alone made many magicians in the original novel tremble with fear. Casting two spells at the same time was considered impossible even for an S-rank magician. However, the current Kim Do-Jin had already shown the ultimate finishing move, including swordsmanship, by using both two skills in only B-rank.

"How do you know the formula for the Heart Strike: Beyond the Space Slash?"

The answer couldn't be heard because Emilia's spider webs covered both of their heads. Yu-Seong and Do-Jin exchanged looks instead of words and moved away from each other in opposite directions.

'Right now.'

Kim Do-Jin shook his head with a slight frown. "Impossible. Those two spells can only be cast on the caster himself

Yu-Seong nodded without speaking.

You can do it.

There was a way. Yu-Seong already knew the secret formula of Heart Strike: Beyond the Space Slash, so he wouldnt have suggested it without thinking.

I'll definitely hear the answer later.

When Do-Jin snorted and started running forward, Emilia watched him from a high-up wall. She laughed. "How foolish!"

Emilia had difficulty catching Yu-Seong and Do-Jin because their movements were flashy and chaotic. But now that Do-Jin was moving towards her from straight ahead She could focus all of the scattered red beams into a narrow range.

Thud-thud-thud-!

The red beam fell like a bomb over Do-Jin's head as he ran straight ahead.

Emilia also blocked the path ahead of Do-Jin by skillfully deploying spider webs to cover the surrounding area.

I got caught!

Kim Do-Jin, who was recklessly running ahead, no longer had an escape route. There were also too many red beams for him to deflect with his sword.

Emilia thought that she was about to witness the defeat of Do-Jin, but

The blue energy emanating from Kim Do-Jin's body surged uncontrollably and enveloped his silver blade.

When Emilia saw the pentagram magic circle soaring high up in the air, she was left with no choice but to look on with bated breath.

Did he just draw that giant magic circle as a mere B-rank hunter?

The huge flames that burst out of Do-Jins magic circle completely engulfed Emilia's red beams, spider webs, and even blocked her vision.

Emilia jumped into the sky while clicking her tongue. She had predicted that the power above the magic circle would be enormous from its size alone, but the heat she felt throughout her body was beyond her imagination. In fact, even the tough spider webs were melting away from that power alone.

Its possible to take it head-on if I need to, but...

There was no reason to get hurt so recklessly. After all, even the massive flames couldn't block the bombardment of blood-red beams.

Thud-thud-thud-!

One explosion after another erupted from the spot where Kim Do-Jin had been standing just moments ago, and a thick cloud of dust rose up.

Emilia, who was jumping into the air and trying to move to another building with her spiderweb, searched for Do-Jin through the cloud of dust. Then, she spotted a dark figure.

That monster-like guy, he's still alive.

Emilia's heart felt a chill as if she had just realized something. She thought Do-Jin was just an average B-rank hunter. However, if he could cast the same massive magic consecutively, even Emilia herself would not be able to withstand the attacks. It wouldnt even matter that she was the Black Gauze King.

Of course, he wouldnt be able to.

There had to be a recoil. Proving Emilias point, Do-Jin looked as solid as a rock in the dirt and dust. He also did not move.

This is my chance.

Using her mana, Emilia stopped her massive body in mid-air and generated ten blood-red beams. It was difficult for her to release more beams while floating, but she was determined to end the fight.

This time, it's truly the end!

As Emilia prepared to unleash her red beams, Yu-Seong suddenly rose into the sky and shone a beam of light at Emilia.

"How dare you!" Emilia screamed. As her face twisted in annoyance, she fired a counterattack beam at Yu-Seong and poured all her remaining energy to directly attack Kim Do-Jin.

At that moment, the two pentagonal magic circles generated in the sky trapped Yu-Seong and made him disappear.

That guy is much more dangerous!

Emilia no longer paid attention to Yu-Seong, because she instinctively felt danger when Do-Jin momentarily emptied his energy. She shivered.

Do-Jin tried to avoid the first red beam by stumbling and rolling on the ground.

He can still manage to dodge that?

Now, Emilia felt a chill crawling up her spine. She quickly tried to create another red beam.

"Wait, Emilia said. She realized that it wasnt just a sudden change in emotion that made her shiver.

Upon the massive spider's body, the pale Yu-Seong with his neck bitten was grabbing the spear with his right arm. He pulled it back before aiming for Emilias head. He yelled, "Lance Charging!"

It was truly a decisive blow, exploding at close range.
