My Reflector Is Invincible

60. Can’t You See This?

[Divine Weapon]

Those were items that Joo-Heon had a really hard time finding and left with his teammates.

They were great items on their own, but they were especially needed to upgrade the holy sword.

In any case, the owner of the items was Joo-Heon.

But why were the demons after the Divine Weapon?

He didn’t even need to think about it.

A Divine Weapon was an item with powerful abilities.

It wasn’t strange that the demons were after it.

There was only one problem.

How dare you try to take my stuff?

Furthermore, the Divine Weapon wasn’t the only thing those bastards were after.

“You mean the items in the Subspace? No way….”

“Yeah, it’s the stuff from the heroes and our teammates that I was holding onto when we fought the Demon King before. I haven’t been able to take it out since my hand got like this….”

“What!?”

Daeho had a special Subspace ability.

Using his shadow manipulation technique, he could store items that weighed thousands of tons.

‘That’s why I took everyone’s luggage before we fought the Demon King.’

Joo-Heon knew better than anyone what was inside.

After all, they were items that he had prepared thoroughly for the great battle against the Demon King.

There were top-grade relics and ingredients inside.

But it wasn’t just filled with consumables.

There were anti-demonic items, of course, but also equipment and valuables.

There were even honorary medals from each kingdom and seals of races.

There were items that granted noble positions and the authority to move soldiers.

There was even a token of eternal friendship from a race.

‘These are items that usually all disappear after a direct confrontation with the Demon King….’

It seemed that he had managed to protect them this time.

Then he remembered something.

It was when he had been in the middle of fighting the Demon King.

-Dammit! Daeho got hit!

-Retreat, Daeho! Get out of the way!

-B… But! If I retreat now, the front line will…….

-You need to retreat now. Thousand-Armed Guanyin! Retreat for now and recover your energy! We’ll take care of the rest… We’ll leave the rear to you!

-I’m sorry… Hero.

The Grandmaster quickly left the battle due to his injuries from the Demon King.

It was a quick exit, unlike the usual game.

As a result, he protected the subspace.

Usually, he would have died or suffered similar injuries, losing the items in the subspace.

It wasn’t a bad thing for Joo-Heon.

‘This will help me a lot.’

That alone would be a great help in the future. It might even be possible to achieve this extreme hard mode achievement.

No, I have to achieve it. Otherwise, I’ll die.

‘The problem is that I need hands to open the Grandmaster’s subspace.’

I can make them while making weapons from the Demon materials.

But time was running out.

I had to find my former teammates and retrieve all the Divine-Grade weapons before the Demons took them.

‘After that, I’ll just rip off the bastards who come after me as a broker and leave quickly.’

There was something to check before that.

“By any chance, did you take ＜Daybreak＞ from my disciple?”

“Of course not. Do I look like an idiot who can’t even protect his own things?”

Flick.

The Grandmaster shook his empty wrist.

Then, a large object emerged from the shadows.

It was the item Joo-Heon was looking for.

[Divine-Grade Weapon – The One Who Promises Daybreak]

It was a cloak.

Not only did it resist all kinds of magic and environments, but it could also automatically block attacks or hide in the shadows.

It was even a treasure that could change its own appearance into other objects.

It was a weapon that was perfect for the wandering Grandmaster, as it also served as a defense to protect its owner.

Joo-Heon reached out his hand without realizing it.

‘My second Divine-Grade weapon.’

But something moved faster than his hand.

“Hey!”

“……!”

From Noble mtl dot com

Swish!

In an instant, the cloak moved away from Joo-Heon.

“I didn’t even let my gambling disciple take it, so do you think I’d let a punk like you take it!”

‘Tsk!’

Joo-Heon clicked his tongue.

“Let me just look at it. It’s not like it’ll wear out if I touch it.”

“Who goes around touching other people’s treasures! This is mine!”

Ah, I had forgotten for a moment at the sight of the item I hadn’t seen in so long.

How attached the Grandmaster was to his belongings.

He even thought of it as his own, even though Joo-Heon had entrusted it to him.

“Thieves will be thieves, after all.”

If things continue this way, there was no way he could take it back.

However, he couldn’t just leave it alone either.

“I have no choice.”

Joo-Yeon muttered in a low voice.

“Come forth, [Holy Sword].”

Buzz!

A sword appeared from the void.

This summoning was possible because the Holy Sword had acknowledged Joo-Yeon.

-As a reward for getting rid of the Demon King’s heart along with the repose of the warrior Ryu-Jin.

The Holy Sword, which appeared with a radiant light, was stabbed into the ground.

Thud!

Dae-Do was startled by the sight.

“Really… were you a warrior?”

“Then can I borrow that cloak for a bit?”

“No way!”

Dae-Do jumped up with the divine cloak on his back. It was towards the only window in the basement that led outside.

“You’re planning to absorb the power of my cloak into the [Holy Sword], aren’t you! Do you think I wouldn’t know?”

‘Oh no.’

Dae-Do was someone who sat and listened to rumors from a thousand miles away.

Naturally, it seemed like he also knew about the connection between the Holy Sword and the divine artifact.

No, it would’ve been stranger if he didn’t know.

‘The warrior did absorb another divine artifact into the Holy Sword once.’

Dae-Do was definitely there at the time.

If things turned out like this, there was nothing he could do.

Joo-Yeon gestured to Haken.

‘Call the Knight King right now. Tell him there’s a thief here.’

He also gave orders to the magician Bayner, who became his subordinate through ＜Marking＞.

The reason he only gestured to Haken was to show Dae-Do.

The guy read the gesture correctly.

“Huh! So you’re trying to call that dirty old geezer!”

“So what if I am?”

“If I decide to run away, that old geezer won’t be able to catch me even if he comes!”

After all, he was a warrior from this generation.

No matter how much of a warrior he was, if he tried to take his things, he would show no mercy.

Especially when he was being ignored like this.

“Then try to catch me if you can! New warrior!”

＜Shadowless Steps＞

In an instant, Dae-Do’s body multiplied.

As if he had multiplied into dozens, he filled every corner of the forge.

Haken and Special Agent John’s mouths fell open in shock.

“Wha… What the hell? That clone is the Great Lord’s signature skill!”

“It’s dangerous! Dodge it!”

Haken and John desperately tried to protect Joo-in. But their attacks didn’t work.

Swish!

As if passing through a shadow, their attacks had no effect on the Great Lord’s clone.

However, the Great Lord’s clone was different.

Bam! Bam!

The attacks wielded by the Great Lord’s clone struck the two men head-on.

It was truly an absurd phenomenon.

But Joo-in knew the truth.

‘It’s all real, but it’s not all real.’

It was a clone created by an afterimage using high-speed movement.

When and how to attack was all up to the Great Lord’s will.

That’s why he was nicknamed ‘Invisible Ghost’.

It was because of his speed, which was so fast that not even a shadow could be seen.

But it was useless against Joo-in.

“Gotcha.”

Joo-in turned around and slammed his hand into the ground.

Thud! Boom!

“Gwaaagh!”

It was the Great Lord’s face that hit the ground before his hand.

Before he knew it, Joo-in’s hand was around his neck.

The surprised Great Lord quickly used his ability.

– Great Lord’s Emergency Escape Technique

＜Molting＞

Like a cicada shedding its shell, only the Great Lord’s afterimage remained on the ground.

The Great Lord, who had escaped from Joo-in’s grasp, broke out in a cold sweat.

“What was that just now?”

“What do you mean what? I just caught a sneaky little thief.”

“……!?”

The Great Lord wasn’t angry.

Instead, he looked at Joo-in with cold eyes.

“Don’t get cocky just because you managed to catch me once by chance.”

“Well, was it really just once?”

“We’ll see about that.”

The Great Lord’s body disappeared in an instant. This time, not even a clone could be seen.

It was the epitome of extreme speed.

– This is the fastest speed I can achieve. This is my true form, which my old comrades used to call the Invisible Ghost.

The Great Lord’s voice echoed through the smithy.

It was hard to pinpoint the location as if they were speaking from all directions.

There wasn’t even a shadow to be seen.

But right at that moment.

“You’re here.”

Thwack! Bang!

Jooyeon’s body turned as he grabbed the empty air and slammed it onto the ground.

Of course, what was slammed onto the ground was Daedo.

“Ack! H, how?”

“A thief’s thoughts are obvious. I guess you haven’t gotten rid of the habit of looking elsewhere and attacking from behind.”

“Wh, what!?”

Daedo’s pupils shook.

It was surprising that he had such a habit, but it was hard to believe that a man he was meeting for the first time knew about it.

But that wasn’t important right now.

‘If I stay like this, my innocence will be taken away.’

This time, he didn’t use his abilities but borrowed the power of a Divine-grade weapon.

He who promises the dawn – Weapon skill

＜Shadow Movement＞

Daedo didn’t spare any more strength.

He mobilized the power of the Divine-grade weapon that he hadn’t used until now.

＜Infinite Thunder＞

It was an attack that combined ＜Invisible Steps＞ with a speed that not even shadows could see and ＜Shadow Movement＞ that allowed him to move freely between shadows.

A technique that attacked regardless of direction and distance at an incomprehensible speed.

‘No matter how good he is, he won’t be able to catch this!’

But it was no use.

“Don’t you have any learning ability? What’s the point of being fast when your habits are the same?”

Bang!

In the end, Daedo, who was caught by Jooyeon again, rolled on the floor.

Daedo, who coughed up blood, broke out in a cold sweat.

‘What the heck is this, this kid….’

You can tell his specs at a glance.

Daedo couldn’t believe he was losing to such a pushover.

But he kept losing.

‘It feels like he knows everything about me.’

What ability to use at what timing.

Even what attack to use when his attacks don’t work.

He felt like he knew everything.

In fact, Jooyeon was sneering.

‘How could I not know when it’s a character I adjusted myself.’

That’s why he knew Daedo’s weaknesses exactly.

‘He never attacks head-on. That’s why he always aims for blind spots.’

He couldn’t control his speed. That was why his attack route was monotonous.

Joo-in reached out.

“Let’s finish this now.”

“……!”

“Damn……. How the hell…….”

Dae-do didn’t rush any further.

However, his gaze changed.

“As I thought, you bastard…… You’re too suspicious. I won’t…… just take this lying down.”

Dae-do decided to use his final secret technique.

– Dae-do Eighteen, Final Secret Technique

＜Strategic Retreat＞

Dae-do’s body quickly headed towards the window.

Joo-in clicked his tongue at that sight.

‘That bastard is using his ultimate technique!’

It was also known as the hit-and-run skill. It would be a pain if he used that.

Hak-en and John tried to block him, but he slipped away like water.

That was when Dae-do was about to disappear.

“Huh?”

Everyone was surprised. They couldn’t help it.

Whoosh!

Suddenly, pouring smoke covered the smithy.

It was thick, black smoke as if it would swallow the light from the blast furnace.

Moreover, it wasn’t ordinary smoke.

The smoke began to tie up Dae-do, who was trying to escape.

Dae-do was rarely flustered.

“What the hell! I can’t move!”

Hak-en and the special forces agent were shocked out of their minds.

Dae-do was caught.

It was something they couldn’t even imagine happening.

However, Joo-in narrowed his brows.

He was thankful that Dae-do had been caught instead of him, but-.

‘Could it be, this smoke?’

He realized who had caught Dae-do.

As expected, Hak-en and the special forces agent fell into ＜Hallucination＞, and a man appeared from within the black smoke.

He was none other than the demon who had been with the gambler.

Joo-in’s gaze couldn’t help but turn ferocious.

“I didn’t know you’d…… resort to such underhanded tactics.”

Had he escaped from the gambling den to find an opening?

Was Dae-do his target from the beginning?

To obtain the items Dae-do possessed?

Now, at this very moment, to kidnap and take Daedo at the optimal timing.

Jooyeon took out the shield of the Warrior King.

In addition, [Holy Sword] in one hand.

But it was then.

Suddenly, the attitude of the mazoku became strange.

I thought he was going to kidnap Daedo, but instead, he knelt toward Jooyeon… Huh?

What? The mazoku is kneeling?

To me?

It wasn’t an illusion, the mazoku respectfully bowed his head in delight.

“aaah… Demon King. Did you capture this bastard who defied you and bring him here?”

“Huh?”

No. What is this punk saying right now?

Hey, don’t you see this Holy Sword right now?
