I didn’t feel it that much when my replica used Ice Field which was more a movement debuff skill than a damage skill, but when I was hit directly, it really hurt even when taking into account my 30% reduction in damage of ice-type skills.

As a result, my health decreased drastically.

At that moment, I could understand the screams and shouts of pain of the enemies as they died from my attack. Given that even I was feeling this much pain, they must have felt a lot more pain that they definitely would not want to go through again.

Of course, my enemy replica and I fought differently.

I first used my AOE skill with a relatively long cooldown while my enemy NPC replica used simple skills such as the Ice Ball or Ice Bolt.

If we compared it to boxing, I aimed at knocking out my opponent with a heavy hook, while my enemy ate up my stamina little by little with repetitive jabs.

Although we shared the same status window, the same skills, and almost the same items, our fighting styles were clearly different.

Of course, I couldn’t definitely say which one was better, for it was basically a difference in our fighting preferences.

But there was one thing that I clearly admitted.

‘Damn it! He’s fighting better than me!’

I admit that I lacked precise control.

That is why I don’t prefer an occupation or combat type that focuses on agility, for even if I had high agility I would not be competent enough to use it properly.

That’s why I don’t like melee attacks that require instant judgment and quick reactions, compared to ranged attacks that give me more time to plan out my actions.

In other words, I know my level very well.

Of course, I was envious of my enemy. Obviously, I did my best, but the way my enemy attacked me with unexpected skills I didn’t expect at all made me click my tongue, uttering, ‘How can you attack me like this right now?’

Obviously, he was far ahead of me in terms of combat sense.

So, did I try to copy him? No, I didn’t. I was aware of the wisdom of the old saying, “If a crow tries to walk like a stork, he will break his legs.”

So, I did my best to the extent that I could.

Just like I had done in all my previous battles, I blocked most of my enemy’s attacks using my body, and used Blink with zero cooldown in a timely manner to aim at him who was harassing me with light jabs.

As for AOE skills, I used them in a way that did not overlap with my enemy’s skills as much as possible because there was no way of completely avoiding damage in this arena until there was a clear winner.

So, I clearly admitted my lack of control compared to my enemy and fought while sticking to my style as much as possible.

Of course, I was ready to accept it if I won or lost because of my fighting style.

But I had a reason to believe that I could defeat him.

I didn’t sit idle without doing anything when I saw the message announcing that my 50th opponent was Lumen, Asirante.

3 Brave Warrior’s Bracelet (Legendary)

-This bracelet contains the spirit of a warrior who charges forward bravely in all battles without retreating.

: Increases stamina by 250.

: Increases agility by 250.

: Increases combat power by 10% in the arena.

-Physical defense: increases by 450, Magic defense: increases by 200.

-Durability: 1655000

/1655000

The Brave Warrior’s bracelet increased my combat power by 10% in the arena, which was a big factor in my previous 49 consecutive victories.

While I was being moved to the arena from the waiting room, I removed it from my wrist.

It took me only 0.1 seconds to do it.

I only managed to remove this item because it was the item that came to my mind instantly before I could think of other items. Of course, there was no guarantee that the Lumen, Asirante, who would appear in the arena would be affected by me removing the bracelet.

Maybe it was too late, but that was all I could do at that moment.

“Okay! You son of a bitch! Let’s see who wins this time!”

After all, the other party, Lumen, Asirante, was me.

In the end, I was cursing myself, but I spat out some more swear words and charged at Lumen, Asirante, who was better at using his skills than me.

An hour and a half later I discovered that no one told me about the fact that the final round of the level 500 arena quest would continue until there emerged the winner.

And after nearly two hours of fierce fighting, our fighting was finally over.

You have defeated Lumen, Asirante.

-Victores: 50. Winning streak: 50.

-You are being moved to the waiting room.

I won, after all. And I felt keenly that I used my capabilities as best I could.

I felt very proud that I took the timely action to remove the bracelet after thinking of it right before my fight, for that was the reason I won decisively.

I removed the bracelet before moving to the arena, then equipped it again after arriving at the arena. As a result, I was stronger than him by 10%, and that helped me defeat my enemy who had better control than me.

Of course, I still barely won, so I could not afford to rejoice at the victory.

“That was really terrible. I don’t want to deal with him again.”

It was a little weird for me to say, but it made me feel a bit terrible to think about my enemy, namely myself. Anyway, a message finally rang while I shuddered once again.

Congratulations!

-You have fought a total of 50 opponents in the level 500 only arena quest.

-Victories: 50, Winning streak: 50.

-By agreeing to fight a stronger opponent after winning 20, 30, and 40 times, the grade of your reward increases.

– By achieving the great record of 50 consecutive wins, the grade of your reward increases.

I was all smiles at the message that the grade of my reward would be increased.

The final grade of your performance is being calculated.

-When the calculation is finished, you will be given a reward.

I wasn’t bothered by the message that requested me to wait a bit because it meant that the record I achieved would be better than I thought.

At that moment a message rang telling me there were three possible rewards just like I received in the level 300 only arena quest.

But I tilted my head at one of the three rewards because it had something that I had never thought of.

Of course, I wished my reward would be a zero cooldown skill like I received in the level 300 only arena quest.

Besides, there was no law that another reward like that could not appear in the level 500 arena quest again. The zero cooldown tied to the level 300 arena quest was too wasteful to be consumed only once and discarded.

So, even if low level skills such as Ice Ball or Ice Bolt were selected to have their cooldown removed I wanted to try my luck again.

Congratulations on achieving the highest record for the level 500 only arena quest.

-By choosing the highest difficulty level in Rounds 20, 30, 40 and achieving 50 consecutive wins, you will receive a much better reward.

-One of the three rewards below will be given.

-Reward No. 1.

: Obtain 7 million victory points that can be used in the arena. (Victory points can be exchanged for various items at the exchange located within the arena.)

I nodded at the effect of Reward No. 1, for this was an arena, and I fought users or NPCs in every round instead of strong monsters.

So it wasn’t strange at all to me that victory points showed up as one of the rewards.

Of course, I was not sure how big 7 million victory points were.

During the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd Closed Betas, I knew victory points existed in the arena, but I didn’t care at all. Even when I started playing ‘Revival Legend,’ I didn’t pay any attention to it, either. But I guessed it would be a lot because the grade of my reward was increased twice.

‘I hear that they are selling titles with the victory points.’

I was aware that they sold not only titles but also pretty useful items.

Although I didn’t use the arena, I heard all the rumors about what was going on in the arena.

But I shook my head because I was now almost the only shining star unlike in the past when I was just one of the numerous users. So, I am also thinking of using the arena now.

I could only obtain a small number of victory points if I won the battles for the low level I was at right now. In other words, it was more advantageous to level up before using the arena than arduously struggling to win many low-level battles right now.

That’s why I haven’t even looked at the arena until now because I had barely enough time to level up as is, and it was more effective for me to use the arena by leveling up later.

In other words, considering all these factors, Reward No. 1 was not that attractive to me.

I felt I could obtain Reward No. 1 with my own efforts, although it would take me a bit longer to do so. So, I turned my attention to Reward No. 2.
