Wizard: I Add Points and Hunt Monsters

’So strong!’

’Those were sixteen Bone Walls, each capable of withstanding a Director Level attack. And this Judgment Knight of the Dawn Church shattered them so easily?’

Though Wei’en had been prepared for Huberto’s strength, the power of that recent slash still left him aghast.

Based on the system panel’s evaluation and using Director Ales—after his Calamity Origin was replaced—as a benchmark, Wei’en estimated Huberto’s strength was a tier above his own when he was mutated in Caster City State. That meant a total of sixty thousand in basic attributes.

Meanwhile, even if he converted all his current origins to basic attributes, he wouldn’t even reach twenty thousand.

A three-fold gap in attributes didn’t mean a simple three-fold difference in combat effectiveness. Adding the disparity in combat experience between him and Huberto... Wei’en made his judgment the instant they clashed.

’I can’t fight him head-on!’

He glanced at the orderly ranks of the Holy Professionals, and an idea sparked. ’To beat Huberto, I’ll probably have to use these Holy Professionals somehow.’

’Though the chance of success is low...’

With this in mind, Wei’en raised his sniper rifle and pulled the trigger before the Holy Professionals could pinpoint his location.

As his thoughts raced, a thread of Spiritual Power bored into the Rune Core in the rifle’s grip, activating the Rapid Rune and the Blast Rune!

BANG!

A muzzle flash flared. A bullet erupted from the chamber, propelled by the Rapid Rune, flying toward a Holy Professional at a speed invisible to the naked eye.

However, with his Spiritual Power now as high as seven thousand, Wei’en could perceive the faintly shimmering sigils on the bullet—the Blast Rune that now clung to it.

Without a moment’s hesitation, he squeezed the trigger again. Empowered by his Rapid Fire feat, several more bullets shot out in succession, trailing just behind the first.

"Heretic!"

Huberto’s form flashed in front of the Holy Professional, his broad greatsword held horizontally to block the attack.

Wei’en had fully anticipated the Judgment Knight’s intervention. With a gentle nudge from his Spiritual Power, he altered the bullets’ course mid-flight—Trajectory Control!

The bullets swerved unnaturally right before reaching the greatsword, bypassing Huberto’s block and slamming into a Holy Professional’s head. All six triggered their Blast Runes, and powerful Rune Power engulfed his head.

A violent explosion followed. Flames spread outward, spattering bits of crimson flesh onto the armor of the surrounding Holy Professionals. Under the influence of a hidden power, the gore swiftly desiccated, turning into black specks.

[You have hit Mahat Edwards with your sniper rifle, triggering Blast Rune and the Death Trait: Plague. Instakill Progress: 53/100. Special Reward: Survival Points +5, Gunnery +1.]

[...]

[Mahat Edwards has triggered the Death Trait: Instakill. He is now deceased. Evaluation: Oh? Hehehe. Someone’s dead. You’d better be careful now. Special Reward: Survival Points +20, Gunnery +5, Spirit Level +1, Resilience Level +1.]

"Hmm?"

A flicker of astonishment crossed Huberto’s face, quickly replaced by a flush of red. He couldn’t believe Wei’en had managed to kill a Holy Professional right under his protection.

His anger reached its zenith when he noticed the dead Holy Professional’s body was no longer robust but had become shriveled and withered, like a desiccated corpse.

"You will die for this, heretic!"

The surrounding Holy Professionals stared, stunned, at the half-bodied corpse. "Mahat, how could this be..."

Wei’en’s gaze was cold and detached. From his position on the watchtower, he looked down upon the Dawn Church’s Holy Professionals, ignoring the Judgment Knight’s threat.

’Never mind that they were already enemies. The simple fact that Clelia died at their hands meant someone had to pay.’

Huberto stared at Wei’en, his tone icy. "Pavla!"

’Even though I know I’m strong enough to crush him, if I ignore the Holy Order Legion behind me, taking down this Mutated Mage will come at a great cost.’

’All Wizards from the Ghost Soul School are heretics—every last one of them must be slain!’

At his call, the woman in the Golden Robe at the front of the formation pressed her hands together at her chest. Her head was bowed, her expression pious and solemn, and her full lips parted as she began to chant in a low whisper.

"The Dawn is eternal, and His will lives on!"

"May His light shine upon the world for all time. May humanity no longer fall to ruin, no longer kill, no longer despair, no longer die..."

’This is bad,’ Wei’en thought. ’I can’t let these Holy Professionals from the Dawn Church keep chanting.’

"Nico, Ruke."

He flashed into the midst of his own forces without missing a beat, signaling for the Ghost Secret Masters to strike.

"Gena, Gil, Una!"

"Gio, Gio, Hili!"

"Siyaam, Sir, Sute!"

Huberto paid no mind to the incantations for the other elemental spells.

But when he heard the familiar incantation for the Corpse Explosion Skill, he flashed in front of the Holy Professional’s corpse. With a swing of his greatsword, he shattered the dark green light emanating from a ghost.

As for the Fireball Technique and Lightning Arrow cast by the Secret Masters, they landed unopposed on the surrounding Holy Professionals. Bursts of flame and silvery-white lightning erupted, leaving scorched wounds on their bodies.

[Your Lightning Arrow (Death God) spell has hit Soloslan Jilardi, triggering an explosion. Evaluation: As expected... still just a weakling. Special Reward: Survival Points +5, Lightning Arrow (Death God) Experience +1.]

[...]

But the expressions on the injured Holy Professionals’ faces, hidden behind their visors, remained unchanged, as if they felt no pain. Then, under successive rays of holy light, the wounds on their bodies began to slowly heal.

Huberto said coldly, "Heretic, did you really think that after all the casualties in Caster City State, I’d let you use the Corpse Explosion Skill so easily?"

Wei’en frowned. ’I didn’t expect this powerful Judgment Knight to be so well-prepared. He even knows the details of my fighting style from the battle in Caster...’
