‘It isn’t a boss monster?’
This single attack allowed Hyeonu to realize that the giant wasn’t as strong as he thought it was. A boss monster’s attack power would’ve smashed his pure energy, rather than deflect it.
‘I was scared for no reason.’
Hyeonu felt pathetic for even having done a simulation in advance. His heart was filled with anger toward the giant.
‘I’ll finish it at once.’
He used the giant skill he didn’t need to use.
[Giant’s Power has been used.]
[Your strength stat has increased.]
Hyeonu’s strength rose to over 1,000 in an instant. This led to Hyeonu’s damage increasing as well. As Hyeonu was preparing for the attack, Tang-E’s skills struck the giant. Lightning fell from the sky while an ice spear and fireball hit the giant from all sides.
“Kuaaaak!” The giant screamed in pain. It was lightning with a B+ proficiency and 1,800 magic power. There was also the C+ ranked Fire and Ice. They showed a different power from the past, and it wasn’t just an increase in power.
[The ancient giant has been inflicted with the ‘electric shock’ abnormal state.]
[The ancient giant has been afflicted with the ‘frozen’ abnormal state.]
[The ancient giant has been afflicted with the ‘burned’ abnormal state.]
There was also a high probability of causing abnormal conditions. The giant slowed down and stopped moving for a short time. It was impossible for Hyeonu to miss such a great opportunity. Hyeonu gathered as much magic power as possible and inserted it into Dark Star. Then he swung it at the giant, striking it with dozens of strong winds made of pure energy.
It was Mysterious Sky Range. Dozens of black blades shredded the giant’s body, and blood burst out from it like a fountain. The giant’s body collapsed helplessly.
[The ancient giant has been killed.]
[Experience has been acquired.]
Once again, the difference between a boss monster and a normal monster was great. Normal monsters couldn’t handle Hyeonu’s damage after it was enhanced by various buffs. Just then, Tang-E’s voice rang out from behind Hyeonu in an urgent tone, “Master dude!!”
“Eh?” Hyeonu naturally turned his head at Tang-E’s cry. Hyeonu’s gaze shifted toward Tang-E who was gathering an enormous amount of magic power. It was similar to Tang-E’s first awakening. The only difference was that the current amount of magic power was superior.
[Your pet ‘Tang-E’ has now reached level 200.]
[The second awakening has begun.]
Seeing this, Hyeonu murmured in a small voice, “It is real. The second awakening.”
In fact, Hyeonu hadn’t believed Tang-E’s words. Tang-E had said the same thing over and over again, so Hyeonu thought it was the same this time.
‘I feel sorry toward Tang-E... Honestly, I wish he will gain more buff skills.’
‘I don’t want a lot. Just have one buff related to agility.’
Two skills were gained from the first awakening. That meant Tang-E would get at least two skills after the second awakening. Hyeonu hoped that a buff skill would be one of them. As Hyeonu prayed, Tang-E started to absorb the dense magic power around him.
Five minutes passed. The power being absorbed by Tang-E was noticeably reduced. Simultaneously, a message appeared in front of Hyeonu to indicate that Tang-E’s awakening had ended.
[Stats have risen due to the second awakening.]
[The second awakening has created skills.]
[The strength stat has increased by 576 points.]
[The agility stat has increased by 576 points.]
[The physique stat has increased by 704 points.]
[The magic power stat has increased by 1,238 points.]
[Your pet ‘Tang-E’ has over 2,000 magic power, and a new skill has been created.]
[Your pet ‘Tang-E’ has over 3,000 magic power, and a new skill has been created.]

“Haah…!” An exclamation flowed out from Hyeonu’s mouth. Only two skills had been created. However, the insane rise in stats and the quality of the skills allowed Hyeonu to overlook that. Although Burning Magic Power consumed additional magic power, it boosted the damage of Tang-E’s attacks.
‘Breath of the Wind.’
For Hyeonu, this was the real skill. This alone rewarded the hard work he and Tang-E put in to reach the second awakening. The buff skill increased Hyeonu’s agility and movement speed. Why did Hyeonu want this agility-related buff? It was due to the armor that Hyeonu was wearing. Hyeonu’s current Wind Gorge set was level 200, but it was a bit lower than Hyeonu’s level.
He hadn’t changed it due to the Blink skill, but the stats increase was fairly low compared to the set items worn by other rankers. Furthermore, the wind attribute was useless due to the Mysterious Sky Demonic Art. Thus, he had to find a way to move fast enough to replace Blink, and he thought an agility buff would be the solution for that. As agility increased, his movement speed would naturally increase as well.
“Good, good,” Hyeonu said in a satisfied manner and couldn’t help nodding. Then someone pulled at his pants.
Hyeonu’s gaze naturally went down. “What is it?”
It was Tang-E. After the awakening, Tang-E boasted entirely golden fur. The blue fur of his tail and the red fur on his face had disappeared.
“It’s strange, strange. What should I do?” Tang-E was fidgety as he pulled at Hyeonu’s leg. Tang-E’s current strength stat was quite high. His high stats meant that Hyeonu shook helplessly like a reed swaying in the wind.
“Why? What’s the problem? What’s wrong?”
In the end, Hyeonu couldn’t stand it and lifted Tang-E. Tang-E looked up at Hyeonu with a crying face.
