The roles within the Holder’s battle party are clear.
Warrior types are tanks, mage types are dealers.
The rest take on support roles or sometimes become dealers.
The important thing is that the warrior type takes on the tank role.
Within this, the role is divided into pure tanks who use shields and bruisers who handle both damage and tanking, but both definitely take on the party’s tank role.
‘I was also a bruiser type of tank.’
All the roles I’ve taken on in battle so far have been as a tank.
Whether it was forming a 5-person party in the academy’s underground dungeon, hunting Swirl Leviathan, or attacking the Forest Covered by Snakes…
Even when I was in a 2-person party with Kim Chae-eun, it was the same.
There were times when we switched roles and the dealer position changed, but the role of the leading tank was always mine.
‘…I was too excited.’
But in the last battle, I showed too much.
I showed the feel of a special type of cavalry through a charge combo, the power of a lightning mage through [Penetrating Brain Strikes], and the image of a complex warrior type through various weapon uses…
I even showed the image of a paladin by using [Divine Slash].
‘…Chae-eun just stood still and it ended.’
On the other hand, Kim Chae-eun only used one skill, [Frozen Fog].
Its power has become stronger than before, but it is merely a support skill that controls the movements of monsters.
She didn’t use any of her core attack skills like [Icicle Shot] or [Cold Crush], and the battle ended quickly.
Right now, in Kim Chae-eun’s eyes, her friend who was a C-grade Holder and a tanker has suddenly swept away 10 C-grade monsters all by himself.
…Of course, that’s exactly right.
“What was that lightning just now? And what about that divine power?”
Kim Chae-eun asked again with a surprised face.
I hesitated to answer.
“Ah, that is…”
“Do you know how to use magic too, Jae-hyun?”
“Um… not magic per se…”
Various excuses came to mind.
I used a special item, I accidentally got a rune as a dungeon conquest reward, I did it with skills inherent in advanced equipment… etc.
There were many things I could say, but for some reason, my mouth wouldn’t open.
‘Do I really need to hide everything?’
I didn’t feel like making excuses.
Some of my friends like Park Jin-woo and Kang Juyeon already roughly know about it, and I felt awkward hiding it from my closest friend Kim Chae-eun.
Of course, I can’t tell her everything about [Rune Hunter].
A little white lie is necessary.
However, at least for the runes I have or will have in the future…
I didn’t want to hide them.
Fwoosh-
I raised a flame from my fingertips.
It’s an application of [Fiery Flame].
Showing it to Kim Chae-eun, I said,
“I can’t use magic skills. I haven’t learned anything about arrays or manifestations in magic control. But I can use simple attribute magic attacks like this. Because I have related runes.”
Kim Chae-eun looked at it with wide eyes.
“Wow- That’s amazing. What is it? A fire rune?”
“Something like that.”
Pats- Pats-
This time I showed her [Penetrating Brain Strikes].
The small flame disappeared and electricity buzzed around my finger.
“This is what I used to hunt wolves earlier. A lightning attribute magic rune.”
“Wow… That’s amazing. It’s my first time seeing an attribute Multi-Holder.”
Kim Chae-eun looked at my hand with an amazed expression over and over again.
Mage type Holders usually get one attribute as their main rune when they awaken.
Holders who get [Flame] specialize in fire attribute and those who get [Thunderbolt] specialize in lightning attribute.
Sometimes there are mage type Multi-Holders who handle two or more attributes called ‘attribute Multi-Holders’…
A representative Holder of this is Jeong Yoon-chan, clan master of <Sunset Flower>.
Water magic and lightning magic.
He is famous as an A-grade Holder who handles both at the same time.
‘There’s also Seong Na-yeon in <Royal>.’
Seong Na-yeon who handles both sword (weapon) and wind (magic).
Jeong Yoon-chan who handles both water (magic) and lightning (magic).
These people are representative figures who boast exceptional skills among Multi-Holders and occupy high Holder positions.
But in my case, since I handle various weapons and multiple attribute magic…
This can be considered a hybrid among hybrids.
“Hehe. It’ll be crazy when this gets out. A Multi-Holder who combines both Seong Na-yeon and Jeong Yoon-chan, Do Jae-hyun! Something like that.”
“Ugh. Please. I can’t be compared to them.”
“Why- You’ve grown really fast too, Jae-hyun.”
Kim Chae-eun playfully joked with a bright smile.
Seeing her bright look made me smile too.
I felt stupid for worrying earlier.
“Chae-eun.”
“Hmm?”
“Aren’t you curious how I have so many runes? It’s a case that hasn’t been revealed in the Holder community, as you said.”
“Yeah! I’m not curious.”
Kim Chae-eun answered without hesitation.
“If Jae-hyun didn’t say it, there must have been a reason. You’re not supposed to teach your runes to your master anyway. Of course, the masters probably know everything, hehe.”
It’s almost a correct statement.
But human hearts don’t work that way.
When you see something you’ve never seen before, you naturally become curious, and if you have a relationship with that person, you want to ask about it even more.
But Kim Chae-eun was holding back that feeling.
‘Do you have to protect more because you’re closer?’
Well, what can I say…
It was a consideration typical of Kim Chae-eun.

‘He’s amazing….’
Kim Chae-eun stared blankly.
Her friend, Do Jae-hyun.
There was no roughness in Do Jae-hyun’s battle showing his strength.
He continued the battle in his own way, freely using various runes and weapons.
The various weapons he possessed were tools that gave irregularity to the attack, and the various magic runes were explosives that added power to the attack.
‘He can’t use magic… but he handles magic attacks well.’
