Chapter 15: (5). Ly’s Improvement-1


    Jinsung logged out from the game and took a shower. Before going to bed, he sat in front of his


    What Jinsung was curious about was the regr Summoner. He wanted to know the difference


    between himself and a normal Summoner.


    ‘There must be someone that posted on themunity to brag…’


    Jinsung then searched information about the new Summoner ss page from top to bottom. There


    were tons of negative reviews.


    ‘I know that leveling up with the Summoner takes time… but they are whining too much.’


    Ian was looking for a review written by a user of Lv. 15 or higher.


    However, there weren’t any.


    ‘What? Why is nobody sharing information? I am already at Lv. 19, there must be a lot of users who


    reached Lv. 15 or higher…’


    He was looking for yers at Lv. 15 because a Summoner’s level had to be at least that high to raise


    the Summoning skill’s proficiency and raise its level, therefore, he would then be able to check more


    skills of an ordinary Summoner.


    There were some posts about reaching the Lv. 15 in the Assassin’s page and there was even a yer


    who reached Lv. 18 on the Dark Sorcerer’s page. However, there was nothing simr on the


    Summoner’s page.


    Alternatively, Jinsung clicked on a review of a yer who reached Lv. 13, then, he started to read


    carefully.


    “Now, the skills Capture, Blessing of the Wind and First Aid are the same skills that I have…”


    Jinsung’s eyes sparkled, ‘There’s a new skill!’


    On the monitor, there was a new skill that he had never seen before.


    [Possession]


    Category: active skill


    Skill level: Lv. 1


    Proficiency: 55%


    You get possessed by the spirit of one of the monsters that you can summon. 30% of the spirit’s stats


    are added to the Summoner’s stats. You won’t be able to summon the monster that possessed you for


    battle.


    The yer who wrote the post was greatlyplimenting the skill, saying that it was the only way a


    Summoner could survive.


    However, Jinsung shook his head.


    “Why should I get possessed by a pet? It fights well on its own. It’s not like I’ll receive 100% of its


    stats… well, will it get closer to 100% if I keep raising the skill’s level?”


    The userter mentioned that the best part of the Possession skill was that he didn’t have to share EP


    with the pet, however, Jinsung couldn’t agree with him 100%.


    ‘It means that I wouldn’t be able to raise the pet’s level… it feels good to watch Ly’s level go up. I don’t


    think that’s an advantage…’


    However, at the same time, he admitted that it was a fine skill. If the yer does not care about his


    pet, whenever the level gap between himself and the pet gets too big, he can just release it and


    capture a new high-level monster.


    Jinsung thought it was a good thing that one of the skills he didn’t have was not so great.


    ‘Then, what are skills that I have but ordinary Summoner’s don’t have?’


    Jinsung thought for a while and came up with the answer.


    ‘Ah, Basic Training!’


    Jinsung nodded his head.


    He thought Basic Training was a skill much more valuable than ‘Possession’. He could feel Ly’s actual


    battling abilities get better as he trained it.


    As the skill had a cooldown time, Jinsung used Basic Training every 35 minutes.


    ‘There is less information than I thought, however, ording to the info I found… the Taming Master’s


    battle skills are not as good as an ordinary Summoner, but its merit is that it can make its pet


    stronger.’


    It was a crude guess, however, thanks to Jinsung’s excellent gaming instincts, that assumption was


    quite correct.


    ‘Then I am doing the right thing with my character now.’


    Jinsung was satisfied with his own y so far. He then turned off the lights and went to bed. He didn’t


    forget to set the rm that would ring five hourster.


    ‘I should try to capture some Rare or Unique rank monster tomorrow.’


    Jinsung wanted to know how Ly’s stats werepared to Rare and Unique rank monsters. There


    were a few users who seeded in capturing Rare rank monsters in themunity, however, there


    wasn’t a single user who captured a Unique rank monster.


    Jinsung assumed that Ly’s stats were as good as Rare or Unique rank monsters of the same level.


    He then thought about the ns for tomorrow. However, he soon fell asleep as he was very tired.


    …


    Jinsung woke up as soon as he heard the rm, he then ate cereal for breakfast. Next, he logged in


    the game right away.


    ‘I must reach Lv. 20 before dusk!’ That was Jinsung’s ambitious goal.


    The current time was 4 a.m.


    He had gone to bed at 11 p.m., when there were not enough monsters since there were too many


    users. Then he resumed ying at 4 a.m., the golden time when there were the fewest yers.


    Jinsung’s ambition and his careful ns would make any ordinary user dumbfounded.


    Ian then logged in and grinned widely seeing the hunting ground full of Asiatic ck Bears.


    “Huhuhu… kkkkkk…” Ianughed mischievously.


    To Ian, all those bears were EP. The hunting ground he was in was usually deste, however, thanks


    to the golden time, there wasn’t a single user and there were tons of preys. This was like heaven to


    Ian.


    “Ly, summon!”


    Ian didn’t waste any time and summoned Ly right away.


    Auuuuuh-!


    As soon as it was summoned, Ly howled, as if showing off. Ian then went to stroke it.


    “Let’s work hard today!”


    At this, Ly growled and readied his ws.


    Ian’s restless hunting and battling fit well with Ly’s character.


    Ian smiled at this and activated all the enhancing skills he had with the addition of Basic Training.


    Ian then aimed his bow at the nearest bear.


    – [Aiming Weak Spot] skill activated. Target’s weak spot has been marked. uracy rate goes up by


    13.5%. Fatal blow probability goes up by 20%. There will be an 85% additional damage when


    attacking a weak spot.


    Its proficiency has gone up since he first got it, therefore, its percentages were even more useful now.


    Piiiing-!


    Ian’s arrow flew fast and hit the spot he had aimed at. Ly immediately lunged at the bear and bit


    another of its weak spots. Ian had found out that his pet could also see the weak spots highlighted in


    red. Therefore, he trained it to attack them first.


    Ping-! Piping-!


    At Ian’s and Ly’s pincer attack, the bear soon turned into a grey light and disappeared. Their hunting


    speed was very fast.


    ‘I think, in the past, I hunted here when I reached Lv.35 as an Archer… my current hunting speed is


    even faster than it was before.’


    Ian and Ly started to massacre the bears like machines.


    Ly’s Friendship and Loyalty to Ian had already reached the maximum. That enabled them to hunt with


    great efficiency while system messages kept appearing.


    – You have killed an Asiatic ck Bear. You gained 545 EP.


    – You have killed an Asiatic ck Bear. You gained 583 EP.


    Ian hunted like crazy for a long time. However, as he aimed his bow at another bear, he realized


    something was different.


    ‘What? Why does this bear look slightly bigger?’


    Ian concentrated hard and looked again. He could see its name: Bear of Darkness.
