Only I Level Up: Ragnarok - Episode 18
Only I Level Up: Ragnarok Episode 18
“pet?”
Suho looked puzzled when he saw the message that suddenly appeared..
[pet?]
Strangely enough, it was the same for Ver..
Tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk.
Before I knew it, a name tag had appeared above the head of the wolf cub licking seaweed soup..
[?? Lv.1]
canine wolf
The system sent a message with good timing..
ring.
[You can give your pet a name.]
[Please choose a name for your pet.]
“They tell me to give my pet a name.?”
When Suho looked at Ber, Ber had a thoughtful expression on his face..
[Hmm? There was nothing like this in the old days.]
“What's missing? pet?”
[yes. When the king was leveling up, there was no such thing as this..]
Ber explained.
The level-up system currently applied to Suho was originally handed down to Shadow Lord Seong Jin-woo, who had used it in the past..
Of course, there have been some improvements since then, but it was all about removing the 'malice' embedded in the system..
“malice?”
[yes.]
The purpose of the system at the time was to forcibly grow a human named ‘Seong Jin-woo’ and use him as a vessel for the Shadow Lord..
The moment that purpose was accomplished, the human soul named Seong Jin-woo was scheduled to disappear..
[However, one way or another, Seong Jin-woo ended up going against the purpose of the system and became a shadow lord himself. He has become such a great being that he no longer needs to level up..]
And the person who inherited that system was the current Suho..
“But why is there a pet system now that didn't exist back then??”
[Hmm. Maybe it's not just now, it may have been there from the beginning..]
Ver narrowed his eyes and stroked his chin..
[In the first place, the designer of the level-up system was not us, but a shaman from the world who dreamed of immortality..]
“Shaman of the Phantom World?”
[yes. Only he knows exactly what features are in the system..]
Long ago, a shaman from the world of illusion wished to escape the fate of a finite creature and become an eternal being..
As a result, a contract was made with God's angels and the level-up system was created..
[However, the purpose of the system at the time was only to complete the Shadow Lord's vessel, so there would have been no need for pets. All I had to do was kill them all and turn them into shadow soldiers. However, the purpose of the current Solord system is completely different from then..]
Suho made a puzzled expression..
“The purpose of the system is not to turn me into a shadow lord.?”
[yes. After all, the Little Lord cannot become the Shadow Lord..]
Ber said decisively.
[There is only one Shadow Lord in this world.]
In short, it was said that only when Seong Jin-woo dies and the monarch's position becomes empty will Su-ho have the chance to become a monarch..
But Seong Jin-woo is the monarch who rules over death..
He would never die..
[In fact, he is truly immortal..]
“I know very well that my father is great..”
Suho was curious.
“So what is the purpose of my system??”
At that question, Ber smiled faintly and looked into Suho's eyes..
The being called Seongsuho, born from the marriage of a shadow lord and an ordinary human, was an unusual being even in all dimensions..
So, even the designer who created the system could not have guessed what kind of being Suho would grow into in the future..
Will I live like I do now, simply as a minor lord who inherited the shadow lord's skills?.
or not… … Will he escape from his birth destiny and find his own path like Seong Jin-woo did a long time ago?.
[The system simply acts as a guide to whatever path the Solord takes. If a feature that didn't exist before was created, it would definitely be helpful to the Solord..]
Ber was already seeing in Suho's face the face of a man who had walked a lonely and difficult path alone and fought against everything in the world a long time ago..
he is… … I was closer to death than anyone else in the world, and I survived by constantly struggling..
In the end, even that death was achieved with his own strength..
The current Earth was a noble peace established through his noble sacrifice..
But these days, that peace has been threatened again..
by the gods of outer space.
“status window.”
Suho, who was listening to Ber, suddenly opened the status window..
[status window]

Passive Skill: Tenacity Lv.2, Dual Swordsmanship Lv.1
Active Skills: Ruler's Power Lv.1, Shadow Extraction Lv.1, Storm Slash Lv..1
After listening to Ber’s words, I understood why the job was still ‘none’..
Perhaps the word ‘Shadow Lord’ will never be written in that place..
Suho paid more attention to other figures below than his job..
‘This is my current level.’
Compared to level 1, when I was chased by the Mist Bundle, the numbers have increased significantly..
There were already so many useful skills..
but.
‘i am still weak.’
Suho never overestimated his strength..
Facts, not humility.
I had already reached level 99 several times in my dreams during my teenage years..
When I think back on how I felt at that time, my current strength was at a very insignificant level..
Just looking at this one, if he hadn't been given the title of Wolf Slayer in a timely manner, wouldn't he have been able to do such a good job against Brockie?.
Suho also checked out the new skills he developed during this battle..
[Skill: Dual Swordsmanship Lv.1]
Passive Skill.
No mana required.
You can use dual swords more skillfully.
33% additional damage is applied when using two swords.
(Applies to weapons other than swords.)
‘It's a double sword technique.…….’
Come to think of it, he had always been fighting with a weapon in both hands..
At first the ax.
This time a sword.
Perhaps this skill was created based on the combat methods used so far..
“Then, if I want to become stronger here, I will have to use dual swords in the future..”
-……?
Suho's gaze rested on Rakan's fangs..
After experiencing it this time, I was quite satisfied with the attack power of Rakan's Fang..
Once caught, the heads of the demonic beasts of Mt. Gwanak were blown off..
In order to achieve balance in both hands, it seemed like I needed another sword of similar level to Rakan's Fang..
‘I need to make some money. Hunter weapons are very expensive..’
And Suho’s gaze turned downward..
“And this guy…….”
“Kiwoong…….”
Before I knew it, the wolf cub had finished eating the seaweed soup and his stomach was sticking out..
But he still didn't have the strength to crawl, so he was lying helplessly on the floor..
“If I want to use it for full power, I'll have to grow it a bit longer..”
[Please choose a name for your pet.]
A system message was urging Suho from earlier..
Suho chose the name without hesitation..
“Because it’s gray fur, it’s gray.”
[‘Do you want it to be ‘gray’??]
“okay.”
As soon as Suho finished speaking, the question mark above the wolf cub's head was erased and a new name was engraved on it..
[Gray Lv.1]
canine wolf
“Wow…….”
Gray, who had officially become Suho's pet, raised his head and sniffed with unfocused eyes..
It felt like I could smell Suho..
Suho tapped the guy's nose with his fingertip and asked Rakan's fangs..
“Hey, let me ask you one question..”
-Something.
“How do I raise him so that he becomes useful??”
-Is there anything wrong with raising a child? Eat well, sleep well, play well.
“Don't say such obvious things. I'm a descendant of the Fang Lord, but I don't have any special methods.?”
-Eating is really important. The reason this child became so weak in the first place was probably because Brockie was afraid of the child's growth and kept starving it..
Rakan's fangs grew angry again as he remembered what the already dead Brockie had done..
If the child of the Fang Clan had grown normally in the first place, he would not have been kept captive by the likes of Brocky..
-So feed and feed again. If you let him sleep long enough and let him run around as much as he wants, he will grow into a much stronger predator than something like Brockie..
“okay? What should I feed you??”
-Of course it's Masuji. It's even better if it's a demon you hunted yourself. Children of the original clan play and hunt from the moment they are born..
“It's a hunting game. hmm.”
It was absurd..
How can you make someone who doesn't even have the strength to walk on his own go hunt?.
[Ugh. They are worse than ants. However, we leave our ants alone as larvae..]
Ber's words gave Suho a good idea..
Who was the one who raised Suho when he was a newborn in the first place??
“Ver, you take care of him from now on..”
[Suddenly?]
“huh. You're the best babysitter I know.”
[Hehehe. After hearing such praise from the Little Lord, I don't know what to do..]
Ber twisted his body and looked embarrassed..
“Then let's go?”
[Kkeek? Where are you going all of a sudden??]
Bewildered Ver.
Suho picked up the back of Gray the wolf cub and inserted the key to the shadow dungeon into his own shadow..
[Would you like to enter the Shadow Dungeon??]
“Where is it? Here.”
Clap.
[Enter the Shadow Dungeon.]
Shwaaaaagh!
* * *
Suho entered the shadow dungeon and rode Ver on Gray's back..
“From now on you are one team.”
[Kiek?]
No matter how small Gray was, he was twice as big as Ver..
Of course, even if you put the two together, you could only catch a handful in both hands..
-This place can't be…….
Rakan's Fang, who unexpectedly followed along, felt a strange feeling while looking at the shadow dungeon..
-Is this the world of the Shadow Lord??
[To be exact, it is the world that the Solord inherited. Of course, it has been neglected so much that wild beasts have been hiding, but.]
Ber's eyes lit up when he realized why Suho had brought them here..
Disturbing eyes were glaring at us from all over the dungeon..
[They're wild goblins. You're the perfect person to train your pet with..]
Ver grinned and patted Gray's bottom as he climbed on top..
[Come on, wake up! Descendants of the Fang Lords! Show those laughable bastards your hideousness.!]
“Wow…….”
Fluffy.
[hmm?]
But Gray didn't seem to have any will to fight at all..
No, I curled up even further on the floor, as if I didn't even have the will to get up..
Rakan's fangs couldn't hide their anger at that sight..
-Ugh! You've lost all of your natural fighting instincts due to your confinement! What should I do with this?!
“What why?”
[That's right.]
But Suho and Ber’s reaction was resolute..
Ber's skill is Predation.
Was able to absorb some of the power and memories of the consumed demon beast..
[Rise up, young warrior..]
Ver, the best nanny Suho knows, once again pounded Gray's buttocks..
harshly.
[Verga uses ‘Skill: Harsh Command’.]
[‘Skill: ‘Harsh Command’ increases Gray’s abilities by 50%.]
[‘As a side effect of ‘Skill: Harsh Command’, Gray is cursed with madness..]
“……Growling!”
At that moment, Gray's eyes, which had been completely unmotivated, suddenly changed..
Ber smiled evilly and continued to pound his buttocks..
[good! Let’s start with that momentum, Kkureung.!]
“Growling!”
