I Got the Academy Morale Rune

Chapter 62

EP.62 New Effects (2)

Limit the number of runes that can be acquired.

These contents were not in the setting of ＜Next Rune Holder＞ that I knew.

maybe that’s normal.

Even if it is assumed that one holder has a certain series of common runes and even sets derived runes…

A basic rune holder has around 10 runes.

Right now, Yuna Shin’s rune settings were all 7 pieces.

At least, as the protagonist of the play, Park Jin-woo, who monopolized various hidden pieces and special rewards, seems to have had about 15 to 20 runes.

In a word, there is no holder itself to hold 30 runes.

“But in my case, the story is different… .”

[Rune Hunter] can copy the opponent’s runes as many times as they want if they win the duel.

There were 21 runes brought in that way, and 7 runes brought to Hidden Peace.

Including the first [dagger] and [rune hunter]…

A total of 30 runes.

Acquiring a number of runes that are difficult to see for ordinary holders, I was breaking the limit once again.

“Whew… .”

After taking a deep breath, I called up the rune information.

It was the newly updated [Rune Hunter] information window.

＜Rune Information＞

◎Name: Rune Hunter

◎Rating: Epic

◎Level: Max

◎Engraved part: heart

◎Special effects

: When you win a duel, you can duplicate one of your opponent’s runes. Only one rune can be duplicated for the same target, and the acquired rune is registered with a lower performance as the level drops.

: A part where runes can be engraved has been added, increasing the acquisition limit to 50.

: When special conditions are met, the combination of ‘Upper Rune’ becomes possible. Once the upper runes are combined, the level of the lower runes does not rise, but the proficiency continues to accumulate, and all of the lower runes’ derivative skills can be acquired.

◎Derived Skills: –

◎Details

: A rune that can be obtained by artificially acquiring 7 runes through individual efforts of the holder. Once someone acquires it, it is a unique rune that cannot be obtained again.

Two new special effects were added to [Rune Hunter].

First, relaxation of the limit on the number of runes acquired.

The rune storage area, which was a total of 30, has been increased to 50.

The part where the runes are engraved is different for each holder.

Just because I have runes on my legs doesn’t mean that other holders also have runes on their legs.

Right now, the [Dagger] rune is engraved on the back of my left hand, but no runes are engraved on the back of my right hand.

So, even if a body part was lost, the runes were moved to another part and engraved.

The total number of items filled in that way was limited to 30.

The first special effect probably creates 20 additional parts in addition to the 30 parts given to me.

“And the second effect… .”

This is a really fresh effect, which is rather embarrassing.

Upper Rune Combination.

An effect that allows you to combine your own runes when special conditions are met.

What are the exact conditions.

I don’t know what runes will come out when I combine them, but…

Considering the name ‘Upper Rune’, it was clear that it was a special rune than the existing runes.

“It’s a bit vague that I can’t raise the sub-rune level, but… .”

The downside is that you cannot level up the runes that have become sub-runes.

However, there are several mechanisms in place to offset this.

The part that says ‘You can accumulate proficiency even if you don’t level up’ and the phrase ‘It is still possible to acquire derived skills’.

You just can’t get the stats from the rune level increase.

The rest of the effects were the same.

“It’s hard to raise your skill level these days.”

These days, as the main stats, such as strength, speed, and durability, all exceed 30, it is difficult to expect an increase in stats due to an increase in rune level.

At least, it is randomly obtained through the [Seeker’s Sweat] effect.

In addition, if the upper rune is obtained by combining the upper rune, the effect itself will be similar because the ability will be obtained when the higher rune is raised.

A chance with virtually no risk.

It was a way to organize the runes I had randomly obtained, and it was an opportunity to acquire new runes.

And it seems that the conditions have been met.

Several runes were shining on my body.

[There are currently runes that can be combined. You can acquire higher runes by using the mysterious power of the rune hunter.]

[Upper Rune: Master of Martial Arts / Lower Rune: Sword, Dagger, Fighting, Bow, Axe, Spear, Mace, Shield]

“I am a master of martial arts… .”

6 weapon runes, including [Sword] and [Dagger].

And [Shield] and [Fighting].

[Master of Martial Arts] seemed to be the top rune judged as a martial art by combining a total of 8 runes.

What is the effect of the upper runes, and what new runes will come out?

I don’t know anything.

Combining them can be a kind of gamble.

However, the name of the ‘higher rune’ that proves that it is a high-level rune.

And if you don’t combine them, useless runes like [axe] or [blunt weapon] will occupy the 50 rune acquisition limit.

If you take all of these things into account.

The upper rune combination was not an option, but a necessity.

This feature was another opportunity to upgrade my holder information.

I chose the combination without thinking for a long time.

[You have combined the upper rune ‘Master of Martial Arts’. Swords, daggers, … A total of 8 runes such as , shield, etc. are selected as sub-runes. The judgment level of the upper rune by combining the lower runes is 4.]

[You have obtained a new rune.]

[Acquires 2 strength and 3 speed with rune tendencies.]

One after another, information on new runes appeared.

: With the special power of the upper runes, you can give proficiency corrections to lower runes. Each lower rune can raise proficiency as a single rune, and proficiency can also be raised through correction of higher runes.

◎Details

: An upper rune made by combining multiple lower runes. It can handle all weapons, including bare fists, with ease. Also, whenever you acquire a rune suitable for a higher rune, you can incorporate it into a lower rune of this rune.

“… Is this real?”

My mouth opens without realizing the enormous amount of information that confuses my eyes.

I felt like an idiot, who was hesitant to combine the upper runes because the levels of [Sword] and [Dagger] were too low.

The special power given to [Rune Hunter], ‘Higher Rune Combination’, was a tremendous function beyond my imagination.

“No, what grade… ”

First of all, the rating is epic.

8 Normal Runes combined, Epic Rune?

Hyeja does not have such a combination of Hyeja.

I have had a total of 5 Epic Runes so far, and they all boasted amazing performances.

Naturally, this rune also boasted a deceptive performance worthy of the Epic level.

First, the special effects.

Proficiency correction of lower runes through upper runes.

The words are written a bit difficult, but the bottom line is that as the [Master of Martial Arts] level increases, the proficiency of runes that I have not used in the past, such as [axe] or [blunt weapon], will also increase accordingly.

“Good.”

The other sub-runes were far from the main runes, so I couldn’t afford to take them separately, but I don’t care, their proficiency goes up… It’s an effect that seems like a pretty good growth stat.

In addition, you can increase your proficiency even as a single player.

Read at readwn.com

Just as I have been raising [swords] and [daggers], it means that you can still increase your proficiency by cultivating the powers of the runes.

In fact, only the level of the runes has literally disappeared.

There was little change from before.

No, it’s actually much better.

Adjusted the mastery of the upper rune.

Through this, the range of growth has been greatly expanded, and the limit on the number of runes that can be obtained has been increased by 7 more.

And secondly…

“The weapon replacement technique. This is a real scam.”

weapon replacement.

Special effects named that way for convenience.

Certain lockers in contact with my body…

In other words, if ‘arms’ are contained in a storage box such as a magic bag, the effect is that they can be freely replaced.

This was the effect I had always needed.

My main weapons right now are swords and daggers.

The sword is mainly used in close combat, and the dagger is mostly throwing… It is used only as a kind of rain road.

Because of this, four daggers are fixed to the waist, and there is little to no discomfort when using two weapons.

“But the time to use the shield is a problem.”

If you use a sword that focuses on attack with a two-handed sword, the disadvantage is that it is difficult to take it out of the magic bag when you need to use the shield.

In particular, when attacking dungeons solo, he uses bows, shields, and even bare fists…

In the meantime, there was considerable inconvenience in replacing them.

In that respect, the special effects of [Master of Martial Arts] are attractive.

You could play the role of a dealer using a two-handed sword, raise your shield and take on the role of a tank, and even use a bow to attack from a distance, you could switch to a spear with a long reach.

For me, using a variety of weapons in battle.

This ‘armor replacement technique’ was a necessary effect.

The weapon also includes a shield, and when using knuckles, a bare fist is also included, so the utility was very high.

“Declaring hand-to-hand combat is a very good skill.”

[Declaration of close combat] is a skill that ignores all physical attacks from a distance for 10 minutes.

It has the disadvantage that it cannot ignore magical attacks, but being able to defend against ranged attacks for a certain period of time during battle has many advantages.

In particular, another epic rune I have, [Relentless Charge] ignores all physical attacks when charging.

A long-distance physical attack that is ignored by [Relentless Charge] when charging, and [Declaration of Close Combat] during battle.

It seemed very useful when used as a combo.

“… I have read them all.”

Finally, after reading all the information on [Combat Healing] that I got from the battle with Shin Yuna, the long procession of information windows was over.

It was too long for the time I spent in the bathroom, but it was well worth it.

More than anything…

“Do you want to experiment quickly?”

Now that you have checked all the new information.

body is itching

I want to try out my new runes and abilities quickly.

Should I go to the dungeon?

It was getting dark outside, and it was too late to hunt the field monsters.

And then.

Boo woo woo-!

It’s like you know how I feel.

The phone rang like a lie.
