Chapter 11

2AM.

"Woo! Whoo!"

I was running the promenade.

The promenade near the back mountain was made wide so that bicycles could come and go, so it was perfect for running.

As for exercise, I have lived with a wall up until now, but today I wanted to run for some reason.

This is because I wanted to experience and feel the state of my body that has changed.

I just checked the stats.

I didn't check it with my own eyes.

'The feeling of physical strength is tremendous. Feeling not me? In the past, I would have sprinted 100m and stretched right away, starting from wasteful nausea.'

I looked awkwardly at my still calm body with a surprised expression.

Just a month ago.

I remembered relaying 400m at an in-house athletic meet.

At that time, I ran 100m as the first runner.

I ran a little in the past, so I said that's about it.

After running to the fullest.

I was born running for the first time and realized that a person can vomit.

I eagerly served pansies in front of the office workers.

Even now, when I think about it, it is a shameful memory.

Anyway then, I realized.

My stamina is limited to 10 seconds of sprinting.

But now, it was fine even after 3 minutes instead of 10 seconds.

The breath was still calm.

It was as if after riding the treadmill at a low speed.

'Health jumped almost 13 times from 5 to 64, but... … It doesn't just jump 13 times, it feels like it's increased more than that double.'

A heart and body that wasn't like me in the past.

With a proud expression, I sprinted back on the road I had come back to.

Tatata that!

I ran like crazy.

It really ran as if it were under evil.

It was a sprint that started with the thought of running until my heart bursts.

However, even though I ran full speed about 500m at the end of the trail where streetlights were lit, there was no fine movement in my body.

It was just a slightly rougher breath than usual.

'It's a little weird?'

That moment.

I noticed something strange and looked down at my leg.

The distance I jumped is clearly 500m.

But the time was faster than I thought.

Even considering that I was not tired and kept a steady pace, it was definitely fast.

'It seems to be the influence of agility.'

The increase in movement speed would have been affected by 100% agility.

I immediately reset my smartphone's stopwatch.

And I looked at the white line marked 100m from my seat.

It was a street sign on the promenade.

As soon as I started, I pressed the start button on the stopwatch.

Ran.

To the maximum limit my body allows!

And the moment you get to the white line!

Beep!

Pressed the end button.

[9.99 seconds]

"Wow, that's crazy. Agility jumped about three times from 5 to 14, but has it risen to the level of a sprinter? You mean, the change in the body according to the stats was so highly efficient?"

I had an unbelievable expression.

It has to be.

This is because this was the first time I had confirmed my ability as an awakener.

I haven't been interested in running or physical fitness so far, so I have no idea how much the average person needs to practice before the record goes up.

'How much is the stat that has risen... … It may be natural to surpass the general public.'

I nodded.

It was awkward that I was still an awakener, perhaps because I had lived as an ordinary person for the past 20 years.

And I didn't even do anything that could be called an awakener.

When it comes to the awakening, don't ordinary people often think of the awakening who fights in the dungeon?

So, even once or twice in battle, it seemed that the word'awakener' would be officially realized.

Relic identification is literally only identification.

'Let's check the synergy effect of wisdom or magic later when we go to the dungeon.'

After capturing my thoughts, I sat down on the bench in front of me. It was because it wasn't just to check the state of the body.

Furthermore, it was the car that came out to organize my thoughts for future steps and skill composition.

Currently, running without a break with my physical abilities seems to be fine.

Running speed is also okay.

It could be judged that this degree of maneuverability as a wizard was quite good.

This is because evasive maneuvering ability is very important to a wizard.

They rarely fight over a fixed seat like a tanking warrior or a knight.

If there is a wizard that is capable of that level, it may be targeting a dungeon of poor quality.

Or maybe they reach the realm of God and can't even get a grip on the attacks of petty beauty.

It will be one of the two.

'From the wizard, activation spells and concentration of spells are essential. You can never start a battle without this.'

Before I think of the dungeon.

I came up with two of the top priorities to be solved.

First, running spell casting.

Although I expressed it in D&F style.

In simple terms, it is the use of maneuver spells.

Literally.

It means to move or run and cast a spell.

If this is not possible, you have to stand in place, chant the spell, and make a seal... … .

What kind of stupid monster will stand still on the battlefield and leave the Awakener who is chanting a spell?

If it was a guy with an attack method that could be used as a target, I would die immediately on the spot.

In fact, I know that D&F dies a lot while doing useless abuse like that.

Because my enemies react much earlier than I thought, and they bother me.

Why? The most uncomfortable profession is the wizard.

It is the top priority to be removed.

Second, spell concentration.

To put it simply, focus on using spells.

To further reduce it, it is order concentration.

All D&F orders require an intensive process.

What if your concentration breaks?

The order fails.

The magic power was written in the magic power, and the time was written in the time zone, but the spell evaporated.

Very clean, as if deleted.

There are two ways to solve this.

One is to increase defense.

Even if you are exposed to enemy attacks, your body will hold up so that your concentration does not break.

In terms of the Awakener's stats, it corresponds to physical defense.

What if that doesn't work?

Obviously, you must learn to use the maneuver spell.

If you have to focus while moving so that you can't touch it at all, wouldn't it be possible to break it?

It was important to go consistently, as we set the direction of nurturing in the survival wizard mode.

Things that are all magical magic are really things that can only come out of the game.

Even if it is a game, the risk is high.

Usually, the users who made such a choice were'crazy' users who took the direction of fostering to fold after enjoying D&F in short and bold.

The first virtue of the wizard is the chanting of the spell, but the second virtue is the constant effort to survive.

If this effort is not supported, the mage, like a thin paper doll, is shredded by the fearsome touch of the enemy.

'Because of this, stats are also invested in stamina and agility. I want to run well and use magic while running for a long time.'

Maximization of viability.

I plan to keep this nurturing concept.

Chapter 006. Battle of Spell Users

Whee-ee.

Let's get into the deeper dawn.

The cool trail is now cold.

However, in a semi-basement studio of less than 7 pyeong, I couldn't feel free to run, so this trail was the best training place for me.

Using start-up orders.

Order concentration.

I am firmly determined to end the creation of both skills today.

It is said that repetitive practice is the most important for skill creation.

And it seemed to be helpful enough for practice in straight lines over 500m.

Papa Pat!

Started full speed.

It must be full speed.

There may be cases where you have to run more dead than this on the battlefield.

'The experimental spell is a buff type.'

I can't fire magic missiles on the trails, so I decided to go with a personal buff order.

Armor.

You have seen the tooltip for the order.

It was like D&F.

It was said to cover the entire body with a force field equivalent to 10 physical defense.

And it was said that the force field did not interfere with any behavior of the body.

It is a kind of intangible protective film.

Horsepower consumption is 1.

If you think about my magic power level now, it's a number that I couldn't even do when I had toenails.

Great.

Armor will be a spell that will be used very often in dungeons.

"Hardness in strength, armor!"

While running, she chanted armor spells.

[Failed to concentrate on the order.]

[Armor order has been cancelled.]

First it fails.

Meanwhile, I ran 500m.

I thought I was focusing my mind in the midst of that.

I remembered the order formula of armor.

I sang while making a memorable number.

… … Failed.

The reason was clear.

'You can't concentrate on running.'

I refined my thoughts again.

Maneuvering should be basic.

That means you shouldn't put this as a variable. Just as you don't put breathing as a variable of spell focus.

I remembered the feeling when my body was running.

The travel path is also a straight line.

There are no variables.

Even if it crosses the point at the end, it only leads to a dirt road and does not even come out of a cliff.

'Only focus on orders!'

Both fists were clenched.

And I started running again.

I can feel the strong night breeze of the dawn that passes through my ears, and the hot breath turns into white steam and sweeps my cheeks.

I concentrated.

armor. armor. armor.

The magical force field in the form of armor that surrounds my body soars in my imagination.

The association is over.

I was almost distracted by my legs for a while!

I turned my attention right into my head.

Then, crossing his hands, he signed a hand.

A very clear handprint is made.

Next moment.

I quickly sang the order.

"Hardness in strength, armor!"

[Successfully focused on the order.]

[Armor spell has been implemented.]

"done!"

Immediately I noticed that the force field had been put on me.

Does this guy have a physical defense value of 10?

As I was running, I bumped into the tree in front of me.

Then, I felt that the force field of Armor was shocked first, and then the remaining amount of the shock was transmitted to my body.

If it were the same, it would have broken right away no matter where the body was broken.

The shock I felt right now was just that of a light tree branch touching my body while walking.

'Is the use of the armor definitely good?'

It was a success.

After becoming the Awakening.

For the first time, he succeeded in using magical spells necessary for battle.

But one success is just a confirmation of possibility. From now on, repetition was required.

That way, the use of mobile spells and the concentration of spells become one skill.

Only when it becomes skillful, the variable disappears. As long as you use the skill, forgetting the two linkages will disappear.

So I ran and ran for hours.

Focusing on the spell while moving was certainly not smooth.

But my determination eventually overcame the failure.

Probably three hours have passed, around 5 am.
