Chapter 66. Boots of the Pilgrim
A magic tool in the form of shoes taken from Wong Chen.
Only after experiencing a glimpse of its functions firsthand did Riman recall its name.
“This… isn't this the <Boots of the Pilgrim>?”
Riman, who knew the items of <Headhunters> inside out, took time to recognize this.
E nu m̊а . і.d
It couldn't be helped, because all <Boots of the Pilgrim> in the game were red.
This was a version of those boots dyed black.

It was inevitable to be confused seeing it for the first time.
“If this is really the <Boots of the Pilgrim>… naturally, this should be possible too.”
Riman placed one foot on a lump of cement rolling nearby.
The first function of these shoes is the complete absorption of shock.
Ѐ_n̂ ù ḿ а
However, what was truly important was the second function premised on this function.
That is ‘Shock Release.’
Puh-eong!
A shockwave burst from the sole of the shoe, and the lump of cement that was stepped on shattered into pieces.

This is Shock Release.
These shoes could store all applied shock and release it as much as desired at the desired timing.
W.е̌ b̂ nӧv̄ е̄ l Ё ǹ ümа̃
Riman had just released the shock stored from jumping from the 3rd floor intact toward this cement lump.
‘So that’s how Wong Chen could make sharp turns in mid-air.’
Because he changed his falling direction by emitting a shockwave from his feet.
‘And rapid acceleration on the ground… now those phenomena are explained.’
Conversely speaking, those useful functions had rolled into Riman's hands.
Furthermore, that wasn't the end.

‘If I can modify the functions a bit by applying the magic theory I'm learning now, I could use it much more usefully.’
Riman muttered looking down at the <Boots of the Pilgrim> that became his.
“Hmm, it’s good.”
“Right, looks good.”
At that moment, an unfamiliar voice heard from behind.
Riman let out a low sigh and slowly turned around.
Wе́ḃn о v ёl Ėn ú m̃а
The expected scene was there.
A gang surrounding Riman from behind.

Numbering eight.
Their ages looked at most in their early twenties.
The majority looked no older than high school students.
Riman said toward them.
Eň u ṁ а̊.і d
“What.”
“Can't you understand words? Said your shoes look good.”
“You guys have shoes too.”
“Hey, we saw everything. You jumping from the 3rd floor. That shock absorption performance looks damn good, take them off and leave.”

“Why should I?”
“Why? You ask why? Ha shit…….”
E̊ n ūm a
The gang members let out sighs and started giggling among themselves.
It was such a text-book delinquent behavior that Riman also chuckled.
One of them said.
“Hey, take them off if I say take them off. Making me talk more, this bastard…….”
“Actually, I came here knowing you guys were here.”
“What?”
Dilarang mengopy novel dari Enuma.id.
“I needed a separate place to test magic tools. If I tested inside the apartment complex, it would be discovered that I'm a mana user. Then I wouldn't be able to use the gym either.”
“What is this bastard saying?”
“So I needed a place reasonably spacious and rarely visited by people. But this place was exactly such a place? Thanks to delinquents like you guys, ordinary people don't even come near here. That's why I came here.”
“Your last words are long.”
Seu-reung.
One of them pulled out a dagger and thrust it toward Riman.
Е̊ n̄û mа̊
Although the blade was sharp blue, Riman didn't even snort.
Having won against a guy summoning a giant chicken-snake just a few days ago, there was no way a mere knife would catch his eye.

Riman said.
“That knife, you didn't apply insulation coating, right?”
“What?”
[Discharge (Bangjeon)]
Ё n̊um а̄
Riman lightly shot electricity toward the guy.
The knife tip the guy thrust forward became an excellent lightning rod and absorbed the electricity.
And passed the electricity intact to the owner.
Pajijik!
Dilarang mengopy novel dari Enuma.id.
“Geu-geuk……!”
The guy who thrust the knife trembled and collapsed on the floor just like that.
Е̊ ňǔ mâ
The surrounding companions turned pale.
“He died……!”
“I didn't kill him, you punk.”
Even though I dislike you guys, I'm not such a bad guy to kill for something like this, you idiots.
Of course, they didn't appreciate Riman's heart.
“You crazy… Enhanced Human bastard?!”
Dilarang mengopy novel dari Enuma.id.
Cheolkeok!
Two of the gang pulled pistols from their waists and aimed at Riman.
Although the muzzles were staring sharply, Riman only yawned.
Pistols that weren't even enchanted weren't scary anymore.
If you're going to shoot, shoot from far away where you can't be seen.
Riman asked.
É nú m ã
“Gonna shoot?”
“I will shoot!”

“But think carefully, kids. The kid who thrust a knife fainted, what do you think will happen to the kid who thrust a gun?”
“Shut up!”
Tang!
One of the two pulled the trigger, keeping the words he spat out.
Ėn u m а .ǐd̈
Of course, it was useless.
Ting!
The bullet bounced off the barrier and ricocheted just like that.
The ricocheted bullet grazed the cheek of one of the gang members.

The guy who suddenly got a gunshot wound stiffened palely.
Although it only grazed, it was a bullet anyway.
Е.num a
Watching that, Riman thought inwardly.
‘Oh, there could also be a way to counterattack by ricocheting projectiles with a barrier?’
One decent strategy obtained unintentionally.
Well, that's that.
Riman looked at the guy who shot the gun and said.
“You shot?”
Dilarang mengopy novel dari Enuma.id.
So Riman shot too.
[Electric Bullet (Jeontan)]
Pajik!
“Ack!”
The guy who shot the gun rolled on the floor just like that.
But unlike a moment ago, he didn't faint.
W̆е̊ ḃ n̂о̂v̄ e̊ l Е̊ ṅ ū mа
Because Riman carefully adjusted the power of the Electric Bullet.
Painful enough to die, but just enough not to faint.

Simply put, it was a torture technique.
“Yap.”
Pajik!
Pak!
Еnù m̈ а
Pabak!!
Riman fired [Electric Bullet] repeatedly at the fallen guy.
The guy getting hit also screamed repeatedly.
“Ack! Kue-ack! S, Save me kue-ack!!”
Dilarang mengopy novel dari Enuma.id.
Screams bursting in rhythm.
Riman stopped firing after frying the guy about five or six more times.
W̆.еb̂ nо v̀ӗl̇ Е̄ṅ ũ m̆ а̄
Because he thought this would be enough of a lesson for the other guys too.
Looking at the expressions of the other guys, it seemed it really was so.
Looking around the faces of the pale gang members, Riman said.
“Let’s think a bit, kids. Would a human coming alone into a secluded place after dark possibly come without any defense?”
“…….”
“Yes or no?”
Dilarang mengopy novel dari Enuma.id.
Pabababa—
Black sparks flashed again from Riman's fingertips.
The answer-inducing effect of electricity was excellent.
“Y, Yes sir!!”
“Good.”
Riman withdrew his hand and continued.
E̊n üm̀å . і̌d̆
“As I said earlier, I need this place. Because it's secluded and inconspicuous.”
“That, yes…….”
Dilarang mengopy novel dari Enuma.id.
“But I'm not telling you guys to get out of here. You guys just stay here. No, you must stay. People won't come here only if thugs like you guys keep occupying this place.”
“Th, that’s right……?”
“But you guys aren't residing in this empty lot 24 hours a day, right?”
“Yes.”
Е n ům̄ ӓ
“I’m saying I'll use it during that empty time. Understood?”
“Understood!”
“Right.”
With this, the place for magic tool and magic training was secured.

He was worried because he shouldn't reveal being a mana user within the complex, but things worked out easily.
“Anyway, live as you used to live.”
Еň üm̀ӓ . і d̄
“Understood.”
“However, if I catch you ripping off anyone like today, it won't end with electric shock then.”
“That, uh…….”
The guy who seemed to be the leader stammered and asked.
“…Why can't we rip off people?”
“Ah?”
Baca cerita ini hanya di situs resmi Enuma.id!
Why can't we take money from people, he asks.
It was a novel perspective he hadn't even thought of.
“…Because I got ripped off a few times when I was young and I grind my teeth at it, you bastards.”
“But other than this way, we have no way to make a living…….”
“Hey, do people who go to work early in the morning live like that because they are stupid? Work properly and make a living, you bastards.”
“…….”
W̌е b́ n̈оv̌е̊ l Ӗ n̂ü ḿа
The gang quickly made sullen faces and lowered their heads.
But these guys, their skill at lowering their eyes was quite good.

Seeing that they made the viewer feel uncomfortable for no reason.
“…If you can't find proper work to do, come to me then. Because I can at least introduce you.”
“…….”
“If you understood, get lost.”
Wе b ńо́vе̄ l̄ Е num а
“Yes sir!!”
After scattering the gang like that.
Riman started testing the <Boots of the Pilgrim> again.
“First, I confirmed that shock absorption and release work properly…….”
Baca cerita ini hanya di situs resmi Enuma.id!
If function confirmation was done, what to try next was application.
Riman recalled the method Wong Chen used these shoes.
Е n̄ûm̌а̂
“High-speed movement using shockwaves, huh…….”
Simply put, it was a technique of exploding a shockwave under the feet and moving quickly for a short distance with that recoil.
Currently, Riman had no proper movement technique.
Therefore, having one such technique would be quite useful.
“Now then, first…….”
Riman stomped both feet on the ground several times to accumulate shock.
Dilarang mengopy novel dari Enuma.id.
After that, he released the shock toward the bare ground.
Tu-ung!
But only the shock burst and nothing happened.
Riman, who pondered for a moment, soon realized the reason.
“Ah, did it reabsorb even the repulsive force upon release?”
If he wanted to utilize the repulsive force of shock release, he had to turn off the shock absorption function for a moment.
Éṅ ü ṁа̊ . і̃d̆
Only then would the repulsive force push the wearer properly.
Riman accumulated shock again and took a deep breath once.
Dilarang mengopy novel dari Enuma.id.
And release.
Tu-ung!!
This time it worked properly.
Because Riman's body bounced in the opposite direction of the shockwave.
W е bn̆о̇ v̌ е̂ l̈ Е numa
The problem was that he rolled on the floor right after that.
Kudangtang!
“Ugh……!”
Riman dusted himself off and stood up.
Dilarang mengopy novel dari Enuma.id.
“I lost balance slightly.”
Riman tried once more.
Еňú ma
Kudangtang!
And was thrown onto the floor again.
“…Good, it’s fine. I got the hang of it with this.”
He didn't get it.
Next, and in the next attempt too, Riman was thrown onto the floor just like that.
At this point, it wasn't high-speed movement but high-speed flinging.

Still, after being thrown several times, he felt he knew the reason for failure.
His body couldn't withstand the physical load caused by acceleration.
“…That bastard Wong Chen used it just fine, why can't I…….”
Riman recalled Wong Chen's corpse he saw a while ago.
Wong Chen's corpse kept in the police station morgue.
When he requested to view it, Inspector Park Jae-il readily allowed it.
E̊ nů m а
Although he gained a few magical inspirations from the corpse seen like that, what came to mind first right now was…….
“He was quite muscular compared to his look, that guy.”
Dilarang mengopy novel dari Enuma.id.
The silhouette was skinny, but when stripped, his lean muscles were surprisingly solid.
It was presumed he probably had a six-pack on his stomach, but that couldn't be confirmed.
Because Riman blew away his abdomen with Heuk-gwang.
Anyway, the reason Wong Chen could handle this shockwave freely was simple.
Wеb̈ nǒvе̊ l̊ Ẽn.ǔ m̆ӑ
What he had, but Riman didn't have yet.
That was a well-trained body.
Currently, Riman's body hadn't even reached the muscle mass level of an average adult male.
‘…As expected, solid physique must support it to use this properly too.’
Dilarang mengopy novel dari Enuma.id.
Muttering inwardly like that, Riman looked down at his shoes.
‘It’s not just because of these shoes. If the body is weak, I don't know when something like this time will happen again.’
Е̃n u m̊ а̌
Internal injury due to the manifestation of Heuk-gwang.
And ten days of recuperation due to that.
This time it ended with ten days, but if something like this happens again next time, he couldn't guarantee what would happen then.
‘I still don't know how many more hidden abilities are in this body.’
And there was strictly a probability that among them, there were high-risk techniques like Heuk-gwang.
‘I have to build up my body more.’
Dilarang mengopy novel dari Enuma.id.
Grow more muscles and train more to prepare for the uncertain future.
But unlike magic skills, physical level was difficult to raise sharply.
Ultimately, to raise the physical level in a short period……
‘I need a potion.’
Not something like steroids, but a potion that would raise the physical level without side effects.
