I Login Alone

Chapter 181

Jung Si-woo went down with his phantom bike. Out of the artificial island, it fell vertically, ignoring the nearby sky castle. Soo Ah-rin screamed at the violent driving, but Caina looked quite happy.

[What a refreshing move!]

“For me to enter the Sky Castle, that dungeon.”

It was nonsense for Jung Si-woo, who believed that flying wings on his back was the condition of becoming a player but was already convinced that the Sky Castle and the Cave system were the same. It was just a kind of qualification that the system gave. So there’s only one real condition to enter the Sky Castle: it is only about breaking the will of Sky Castle with the will of Jung Si-woo. At least that’s what he confirmed before.

‘Until now, it has been impossible. But maybe it’s not because the Sky Castle was blocked, but because I doubted myself. I thought I wasn’t good enough yet. I thought I didn’t deserve to dream of the sky because I was still wandering underground.’

When he reached Sky Castle with the phantom bike in the past, he was thrown out. That was because he lacked his strength and will to a certain extent. Wasn’t it the extortion of his inherent ability? If he had succeeded in invoking that ability, he would have been able to intervene in the creation process of the dungeon and gain the player’s authority from the Sky Castle, just like Hecto, who created the dungeon he wanted.

“But with my current strength, I am confident that I will break the will of Sky Castle.”

Nevertheless, he went down to the Earth without heading directly to the castle to persuade himself. It was to convince himself that the Earth’s luminaire was entitled to fly into the sky. He had to grow himself, not force himself into the sky.

“The surface! Oppa, I see the surface!”

“Yeah.”

The Sky Castle was a structure that floated over the Pacific Ocean; it was natural to reach the Pacific Ocean by descending vertically. As the blue sea surface gradually filled her eyes, Soo Ah-rin held onto Jung Si-woo tightly as she felt instinctive fear even though she had wings.

“Ouch.”

“Argh!”

However, Jung Si-woo skillfully pulled the bike to a halt when it seemed like he would strike the sea if he went down a little further. The wind pressure caused by the bike raised water everywhere, but it soon calmed down again when he stilled the engine.

“All right, let’s get started.”

“Oppa…are you trying again?”

“I’m the one who sent them to the dungeon, so I can’t leave them alone.”

Jung Si-woo threw a frozen potion at sea, creating a huge ice sheet. After getting off the bike and climbing onto the ice, he sighed briefly and squeezed Pruta’s fragment hard. Only then did Soo Ah-rin, who discovered the source of Jung Si-woo’s confidence, tilts her head.

“That’s…God’s power from Hecto?”

“The power of the God of the Wind. He may have anticipated this and given this strength.”

In the final moments of the battle, Hecto showed Jung Si-woo’s interest and favor, not the vague intention of murder. This was because he became convinced that he was his Korean compatriot. Maybe he gave Pruta’s strength, not his own because he expected Jung Si-woo to grow faster.

‘Maybe he just didn’t want to reveal the source of his power.’

It didn’t matter either way. In the end, everything would be Jung Si-woo’s.

“Whoo…”

He already had the experience of evolving skills with God’s power. Wasn’t the skill created by Setnak’s power the Soul Force skill? It was the same now. Of course, there was a difference between passive and active, but it wasn’t a problem at all now. Jung Si-woo hadn’t canceled a single moment of his combat charge since he started training in the past, and now some of the Mana circulating through his body always had that fighting spirit.

In other words, his sprinting was already halfway to the area where the boundaries between passive and active skills were lost. So, it must have been possible. It had to be possible.

‘If I make all the skills like this, I’ll finally be able to combine my skills and body. Eventually, the distinction between skills will disappear, so there will be no need to divide the form of power. But it’s not about eliminating possibilities, and it’s rather the way forward to infinite possibilities.’

Only when that becomes possible can one be a God. Jung Si-woo vaguely thought so. It was a force that existed in the realm beyond God, which was nothing more than a particular realm…Jung Si-woo was ready to surpass God without even realizing it.

“Oh, the fragment of Pruta…”

[…It’s beautiful.]

Jung Si-woo’s unique ability gradually emerged in endless thoughts. Soo Ah-rin and Caina watched the scene, mesmerized by the slow melting of Pruta’s fragments as they radiated dazzling green light.

“Wind. The power to make the sprint stronger, faster, and freer.”

Jung Si-woo completely absorbed the power into his Mana but tried hard to extract the records and attributes contained in it and melt them into the flow of combat. It required absurd concentration and mana control, but the burden was relieved a little because he had already laid down the groundwork.

“Wind, with infinite potential and free flow, above all, fast power.”

He deeply savored the fragment. There may be ways to ignore individuality and make it into one’s power, but now it was time to acknowledge his lack and respect Pruta’s power. Knowing that all forces can be fused into one, he acknowledged that the beginning forces could be differentiated into different kinds.

[This blossoms the possibility of a second unique ability. Achieve the remaining conditions and regain what is yours.]

[Combat Sprint skill undergoes a mutation.]

“…Whoo.”

At the moment when someone’s soft voice was heard in his ears, Jung Si-woo coughed up a deep breath. Only then could he be sure that the skill evolution would succeed. The time must have been little more than a second, but it was similar to eternity for Jung Si-woo. He was so focused that he couldn’t catch the message that passed by, but he was sure he could think of it again the moment he needed it.

“Your body has a slight green glow.”

“We’ll see each other more often.”

The flow of fast-paced fighting mana began to change slightly in line with the variety of skills. As with Soul Force, sufficient information was obtained from the fragments of God, allowing Jung Si-woo himself to serve some of the power that reached the realm of God with his fighting sprint skills. To put it easier, now he could embody the wind in his sprint.

[Combat Sprint Skill evolves into the Wind Run Skill.]

[Wind Run skill has become Lv5.]

“That’s enough.”

Jung Si-woo felt much lighter, his confidence rising following the conviction that he had done it. It was the most important element that constituted him. Now, he was sure he’d be able to enter the Sky Castle.

“Oppa, but…”

Soo Ah-rin sounded worried. It was a problem he should have pointed out before coming down to the Pacific Ocean.

“We haven’t finished the Earth’s transformation yet, and even if we’re qualified to enter the Sky Castle, will we be able to enter the dungeon? That’s a 38-level dungeon…”

“What are you talking about? We’re trying to force our way into the sky castle in the first place, but you think we’re going to be bounced out from the dungeon?”

“Well, that’s how it works…?”

[As soon as you try to understand, you lose, Soo Ah-rin. You should just give up.]

“Hmph.”

Caina’s words were mean, but she couldn’t help it because it was true. Come to think of it, Jung Si-woo was like that from the beginning. It was a bit too much to catch Soo Ah-rin from the sky from the start. Jung Si-woo’s activities as a player began from that compulsion, saying, ‘I don’t care what kind of system the Sky Castle has. I need to save that person.’ It was nothing new now.

“Well, follow me.”

“Oh, okay.”

Jung Si-woo positioned himself on the ice and activated the sprint as usual. Of course, the patterns of the two skills were quite different, but he was already mastering how to handle them. The wind wasn’t just helping him; his body was one with the wind.

“Hooh…haa!

A short leap! The ice sheet over a meter thick was perfectly shattered at one stroke of his foot.

“Huh?”

Soo Ah-rin rubbed her eyes as she looked at the back of Jung Si-woo, soaring high into the sky like a rocket. To her utter bewilderment, he was soon out of sight!

“I, I can’t see him already!”

[He’s unbelievably fast…]

“Caina, start! Start the engine!”

[All right, let’s go!]

Soo Ah-rin and Caina’s Phantom Bike ran a little late along the trajectory left by Jung Si-woo. Meanwhile, Jung Si-woo was soaring higher and higher. Lighter than air, faster than wind, and more powerful than a typhoon! That was the power of God, Pruta, to deal with the wind!

“Hmph…my skill level is still low. I can’t move with the wind yet.”

The problem was beyond that. As they got closer to the sky castle, the pressure of Mana emitted by the Sky Castle was weighing on Jung Si-woo. It pressured him as if it knew what he was trying to do. The power of the wind, which seemed to rise constantly, weakened momentarily. The acceleration, which was only getting faster, gradually decreased, and eventually, his speed began to slow down little by little.

“Humph!”

However, Jung Si-woo still had the means left. It was just a skill that he learned a while ago, repeat! A fraudulent active skill that ignored the conditions required to invoke the skill forces his Mana to use it once again! It was a skill that could only be used because of its inherent ability to extort, and it was also a skill prepared for the Wind Run.

[Repeat skill has become Lv4]

[Wind Run skill has become Lv6]

The flow was repeated. And like a lie, Jung Si-woo succeeded in taking another leap in the air. The wind that was losing power was pushed by a bigger wind from behind to grant him momentum!

“Kk, hah…!”

Two huge structures were visible: an artificial island and a Sky Castle. People were still in turmoil, but those with good eyes screamed in surprise when they found Jung Si-woo soaring without wings.

‘The pressure…’

Harder and harder and harder. Jung Si-woo resisted by clenching his teeth against the force of the Sky Castle that tried to deflect him toward the island. Gradually, the sky was wide in his eyes. The moment he saw it, he thought of it.

‘I think the strength I gained from the ground will be enough.’

“You’re only going to make things more complicated.

“Are you going to run like a child just because you don’t like it and break the order you’ve managed to build?”

Had he ever felt the presence of the heavenly castle so close? It was like looking at a mountain. It was giving off a tremendous sense of intimidation as if to put him down at any minute.

“Ha!”

At that time, black scales sprang up all over Jung Si-woo’s body. His tail also rose naturally to support him. As the weight increased, somehow, his speed increased. He was helping him by replacing it with that of his skill.

“No matter what, it’s none of my business.”

Jung Si-woo knew very well that he was a hot-tempered, ignorant and childish tyrant who wanted to do everything his way. Perhaps the day when he became an adult would never come. That was enough, though. Now he had to rip off the dungeon and check on his friends.

“So come on…take me in now!”

The moment the dragon’s dignity was released, the pressure on his whole body washed away. Just as the blocked hole was drilled and the water erupted, Jung Si-woo’s body bounced into the air. At the end of it, his hand finally touched the edge of the sky castle.

[Lv3 has been robbed of unique abilities. Additional conditions are achieved to liberate the second intrinsic ability.]

[Robbing the Sky Castles Player Qualification]

[Chaos Wing will be generated]

In the hands of the dragon that soared from the ground, he finally came into the castle.
