“Stay put for a moment,” Chang-Sun instructed him.

Gyeo-Ul looked at Chang-Sun with confusion for a moment, wondering why he had given such an order.
However, when he noticed that Chang-Sun’s gaze was fixed on Eun-Seo, he took a step backward without challenging the order, because he believed Chang-Sun had to have a legitimate reason.
Ever since Gyeo-Ul had undone the half-spirit curse, he trusted Chang-Sun more than anyone else in the world.

‘If I observe her, I’ll be able to find out what a Gildal is and check if she suffers from other side effects,’ Chang-Sun thought as he silently watched Eun-Seo.

Boom!

Leaping high into the air, Eun-Seo accurately landed between Geum-Gyu and Joo-Han, kicking up a large cloud of dust.
At that moment, Joo-Han subconsciously moved back a bit; on top of being surprised by Eun-Seo’s sudden interference, she was also emanating shockingly intense energy.

[The aura of ‘Tiger Kill’ is raging!]

Behind Eun-Seo, Geum-Gyu was also surprised and dumbfounded, barely managing to utter, “You…!” For a moment, he had been relieved to find his twin sister, whom he had tried so hard to search for.
However, it seemed as if she had become a totally different person.

However, Chang-Sun thought Eun-Seo was bound to be different; her [Tiger Kill] had been infused with a substantial amount of the ‘Hohwan Mama’ after partially undergoing Gildalization, which meant it was a lot more advanced than that of the other trainees who had recently learned [Tiger Kill].
Thus, unless the person’s mastery of the skill was higher than Eun-Seo’s own, they would naturally feel overwhelmed by her.
That was not what surprised Chang-Sun the most, however.

‘She might be surprised at the changes in her body, but she’s handling the change quite well, as if she had been born this way,’ Chang-Sun observed.

Judging from the way she was acting, Eun-Seo herself seemed to be shocked by the sudden changes in her body.
It was understandable, as her stats had completely changed after being rescued from the monster who had kidnapped her.

However, she did not reveal how baffled she was; perhaps it was because now was not the time to do so, or it was simply because she was far tougher than her petite frame suggested.
Rather, her eyes shone brightly with apparent satisfaction at her newfound power.

“How dare you lay hands on my younger brother? Get lost!” Eun-Seo shouted with fierce energy.

Joo-Han’s expression froze.
Only after his subordinates pointed their weapons at Eun-Seo did he come back to reality, his face red with embarrassment.
He gripped his sword tightly as he bit his lower lip, asking, “…What did you say?”

“I said, you look like a piece of half-chewed squid.
Do you have a problem with that? Oh, I see what the problem is.
You look like a dried-up sea anemone, so I can’t compare you to an innocent squid.
Ah, wait, then am I being unfair to the sea anemone?” Eun-Seo remarked with a smirk.

For his entire life, Joo-Han had walked an elite path and was always considered handsome, so he had never heard such an insult.
On top of that, Eun-Seo’s smirk only made him angrier.
However, he suppressed his anger as best he could and calmly said, “You’re insulting me and my team.”

“How is it an insult? Well, you’re the one who tried to lay a hand on my younger brother, and what’s that? Blackmailing? Threatening? Playing Gab? What’s your favorite?” Eun-Seo continued.

Feeling as if he would go out of his mind if he continued to bicker with the petite woman before him, Joo-Han’s expression stiffened once again before he said, “I guess I have to shut your mouth first.”

Paaah―!

Joo-Han moved quickly, planning to subdue Eun-Seo first.
As the instructors were no doubt watching, he could not truly harm her, but the instructors would not interfere unless the fight became too serious.
Thus, he could still teach her just how scary the world was.
Joo-Han’s team members, who had been staying still, also moved; as his subordinates, they had to help him.

“You cowards.
Well, I guess I should have seen it coming, seeing as three men are ganging up on one woman, huh?” Eun-Seo remarked, insulting them as much as she could while coldly analyzing the situation.

She was going up against a total of three Players, including Joo-Han.
He already looked like a skilled Player who would not be easy to deal with, but there were two more Players aside from him.
If she fought them head-to-head, she would definitely lose; even though she had acquired a mysterious power, she could not guarantee that she would be able to use it unless she completely mastered it.

However, she would be able to win if she used that power correctly.
Thus, she took a weapon out of a deep corner of her inventory and slammed it against the ground.

‘A tower shield?’ Chang-Sun thought in surprise.

Eun-Seo had pulled out something he had never expected—a two-meter-tall tower shield that was far larger than her entire body.
The shield was so thick that most attacks would fail to even leave a scratch on it.

Clang! Clash!

“W-What’s going on…?”

“Why did it…?!”

Just as expected, the two Players who tried to attack Eun-Seo first were perplexed when their attacks were easily blocked by her tower shield.
Paying little heed to them, Eun-Seo moved forward, focusing her power on holding the tower shield in her left hand.
When she moved forward with the tower shield, she looked like an armored car, severely intimidating her opponents.

[Your ‘Tiger Walk’ is strengthening as you walk forward!!]

[You are moving more quickly!]

[The Skill ‘Shield Attack’ is being used with full force!]

Boom! Boom!

“Aarggh!”

“Urgh!”

Eun-Seo charged forward so quickly that the two Players were instantly struck by her tower shield.
One Player flew into the air like a deflated balloon, eventually rolling across the ground.
Barely managing to sidestep the charge, the other Player dodged Eun-Seo’s [Shield Attack] and attempted to attack her from the side, but he was stopped.

Clanggg!

“Hal-halberd…?!” The second Player’s eyes widened when he saw what had stopped his sword attack.

It was a long halberd, a weapon with a sharp spike attached to a large ax blade for a head.
Just like the tower shield, the halberd was so large that it seemed as if it could cut monsters in half from top to bottom with a single strike.
The contrast between the petite woman who was barely 160 centimeters tall and the vicious-looking polearm only made the sight look more intimidating.

[A ‘Tiger Disaster’ is being used with full force!]

The Player had no idea where his opponent’s power was coming from.
Eun-Seo powerfully swung the halberd in her right hand.

Crack, boom!

Slide!

She destroyed the Player’s sword instantly, and also hit him as hard as she could.
At the last moment, she had used the back of the halberd, keeping the Player from dying; however, he was tossed a great distance away, struck by an immense force akin to being hit by a car.

“…!”

“…!”

Eun-Seo’s outrageous power overwhelmed everything.

[The aura of ‘Tiger Kill’ has filled the air!]

Having missed the chance to attack Eun-Seo, Joo-Han stood still, frozen in place.
Geum-Gyu gaped, vacantly watching Eun-Seo in disbelief over what was happening.

“What were you going to do with me again?” Eun-Seo casually threw Joo-Han a question.

Joo-Han subconsciously straightened his posture, as a shiver and a trickle of cold sweat ran down his spine.

Looking at Joo-Han, Eun-Seo laughed slyly as she continued, “My memory often fails me, so can you tell me again, you spoon-worm-looking mister?”

[The Celestial ‘Twilight-Piercing Owl’ cheers the Player ‘Shin Eun-Seo’ on for executing justice!]

1.
The raw literally says ‘Mister Lim’.
The intent is to convey how arrogant he is.

2.
Age is very important in Korea.
The older you are, the more mature and skilled you are assumed to be, so people like to say ‘I’m older than you’.
As Eun-Seo and Geum-Gyu are twins, they always argue about who was born first.

Koreans often make fun of other people’s looks using sea creatures.
The most commonly used one is squid.
