LIGHTNOVELONLINE Chapter 123
[Title: Let Me Meet Gawol Just Once LOL]
[‘Hon-idamgin Geojit’ is live streaming.]
I don’t know if it’s superstition, but life has a momentum.
On a good day, you can do anything and it’ll work out, but on a weirdly bad day, no matter what you do, you’ll fail.
The streamer Hon-idamgin Geojit, or ‘Hon-geojit’ for short, was a firm believer in this ‘momentum theory.’
And three times in a row, the Empress of Fate showed up in the right direction.
When the same card appears three times in a row, you can finally be sure.
His luck today was peaking.
Today, the goddess of luck was smiling at him.
No, it felt like she was beyond just smiling; it felt like she was reaching out to him.
“This is it, this is it! Everyone, today’s Hon-geojit is different. Let’s cause some trouble today!”
Who is Gawol?
Regardless of her past image, Gawol is, at this point, the highest authority in one-on-one combat.
The wall named Kelberos, which Korea has never broken down.
She’s the girl who took down that Kelberos and confidently claimed victory.
Among some fans, Gawol even has an image of being Korea’s ultimate weapon.
There’s an assassin in Korea stronger than a Ripper.
If Gawol joins the pro scene, could she end this long dark age?
Expectations from fans only grew stronger.
Moreover, just a few days ago, ACL and Sigma faced humiliating defeats against Phantom and Hashashin.
Korea was desperately craving an assassin while also fearing them.
Even while Prelude was in full swing, Gawol still didn’t fall from people’s lips.
Gawol’s value was still on the rise.
But what if… he could take down that assassin?
‘What else could it be? That’s a jackpot!’
His current condition was undeniably at its peak.
The luck pushing him now is… once in a lifetime!
If he wins against Gawol, that video would definitely blow up.
Surely, everything he’s done with cards has been for this moment.
Just then, the goddess of luck raised her hand for him once again.
[Passive: Serendipity]
[When using a skill, there is a 1% chance to force a special effect to activate. Special effects from Serendipity do not consume ‘Destiny Distortion’ stacks.]
[Applied Effect: Wave of Cards – Ignores guard and parry judgment.]
– Hahaha!
– Wait, is this right here?
– Are you out of your mind? Are you out of your mind? Are you out of your mind? Are you out of your mind? Are you out of your mind?
– Fair and square, relying on luck.
“Makes no sense!”
The cards flying in succession left wounds all over Gawol’s body.
What should have been thwarted by a dagger scratched his wrist and forearm instead.
Gawol managed to pull back right after failing to defend, but this was pure luck he had received!
No need to feel disappointed for not landing many hits.
After all, it was already a huge merit just to push Gawol unilaterally until the skill ended.
‘Stay calm. You need to be calm in moments like this!’
He had significantly widened the distance with Gawol.
Even that incredible-speed assassin couldn’t close the distance in one shot.
Then, now was the best timing to eliminate variables.
Even if you’re not a pro, reaching the tier called Infinity isn’t something anyone can do.
If the optimal situational judgment doesn’t follow, you can’t even get close.
His brain was spinning faster than during college entrance exams.
Not that he studied back then anyway!
He scraped away all the memories stuck in the floor or trees.
That fast assassin would be using shadows to sneak in, and he wouldn’t be able to react to that speed.
Usually, he’s a guy who never lets you have time to think, but when luck is on your side like now, it’s a different story.
Moreover, the cards planted everywhere now serve as a backup for later.
The main skill of this build is ‘Return.’ As the scattered cards return, it deals powerful damage.
Plus, adding in the hand cards he’s gathered and the ultimate buff will certainly tear apart an assassin’s delicate body in one go.
This match. He might really win.
– Here it comes!
– Cards are laid everywhere; how can he do this?
– Is he really going to catch Gawol?
– I told you card sorcery is OP.
– Card Sorcerer’s peak = Gawol.
Prepared Gawol attempts to re-enter.
The paradox of a card sorcerer is that to land his main skill, he also needs to get in close.
But we’re talking Gawol here; he never planned to win in close combat from the start.
Can he really gain an advantage by bursting stacks against that monstrous woman?
No way.
No gambler bets on a 0% win rate.
His gambit was solely based on Return, and investing in other utilities felt more reasonable.
[Active: Infinity Shuffle]
[Creates a permanently sustained area at a designated spot…]
He sets up a skill to limit the entrance.
Even an assassin hard to catch is fair game when the direction is clear.
Restricting angles of attack with shadows while using trees as cover.
A brilliant technique, but just as Gawol arrived at range.
Hon-geojit pulled the trigger without hesitation.
[Having done all he can as a human, he awaits the will of heaven.]
[Receives the effect of Jin-in-sa-dae-cheon-myeong (盡人事待天命).]
[For 4 seconds, activates ‘Serendipity’ with a probability of 77.7%.]
[Passive: Serendipity]
[Applied effect: Return – 50% penetration against defense, projectiles ignore all obstacles.]
[Card: Strength + The World]
[Active: Completed Power]
[The damage of the next skill used will…]
Based on the direction the card sorcerer is facing, cards stuck everywhere in the forest flew out in a straight line.
Naturally, several cards pierced Gawol’s body, but… not a drop of blood flowed, as if nothing was there.
It was an intangible illusion.
In the midst of all this, a clone, just when he had no clue when it changed.
Hon-geojit smiled, impressed.
“Now this is Gawol.”
She’s not the kind of opponent who would fall for a predictable trick.
However, it’s not for no reason that it’s said ‘a lucky card sorcerer’ is OP.
[Used the ‘Mage’ card.]
[Serendipity: Repeats the effects of the previously used skill.]
If it were Gawol, she probably would have already caught his back by now.
As if believing that, she immediately turned around and used Return.
And indeed, the silent assassin was already just a few steps away.
If this attack connects, no matter how much of Gawol she is, she couldn’t escape.
There were no traces of spellcasting around, so she wouldn’t be able to slip through on shadows.
He won. This time, he truly lands a hit.
A shivering thrill rose up Hon-geojit’s spine.
Before Gawol’s figure faded into a blur.
“What, what…?”
The black disappearing shadow was definitely evidence of Shadow Movement.
But there were no shadows available for the assassin nearby.
The assassin’s shadow skills have more constraints than one might expect.
The moment his thoughts reached that point.
Gawol dropped from above, landing on him with her two legs.
“Whoa, that was kind of dangerous this time.”
Fortunately, he found the answer before his vision was blocked.
As she snagged the dagger that dropped just a moment late, the Silver Magic unraveled.
She had thrown her main weapon. Into the sky.
She must have hit the Silver Magic to trigger the hit.
Now, he really had no means left.
While feeling the dagger that was slicing at him, Hon-geojit suddenly thought.
‘Her thighs are really soft.’
The stocking-clad legs touched both his cheeks.
Initially, there was some pressure, but at about 20% left, it felt just right.
In fact, her skin felt so soft that it felt cozy.
Moreover, Gawol wrapped around him from the front.
Her thighs touched his cheeks, and he could feel the warmth of her soft skin even at the tip of his nose, faintly mingling with a thin layer of cloth.
Which meant, where exactly was his face touching right now?
This sniping.
He didn’t regret it at all.

[Title: So How Much Did That Card Sorcerer Peak Out?]
Stop speaking in codes and just tell me.
Who the hell knows that crummy character?
[Comments]
– Might be worth aiming for lotto.
– Just watch the video; it’s well-commented.
└ What video? That girl Gawol doesn’t even post her broadcasts back.
└ Hon-geojit posted something, wait for it.
