SOLO LEVELING- CH-15. ARISE

Igris who was walking towards Jina, suddenly he disappeared and appeared in front of Jina, with his sword above her head. Jina with lightning speed, sat down and the sword sliced the pillars behind her.

Not giving any chance to Igris, Jina then kicked him in the stomach and sent him flying towards the ceiling.

Booom!

Thud!

With a loud sound, Igris was smashed in the ceiling, but he soon fell on the ground and again dashed towards Jina. This time Jina covered her knuckles with ice and lightning while arrows of ice, fire and stones shot towards Igris non-stop. Igris destroyed the arrows easily with his sword but they still kept coming at him, decreasing his speed.

As Igris was destroying the arrows, suddenly the ground underneath him started shaking and a big block of land came out, smashing him on the ceiling again. Seeing the opportunity, Jina flew towards Igris using her wind element and increased her speed with sprint and landed a clean puch on Igris' face, bending his face.

Booom!

Thud!

Igris again fell on the ground but this time he didn't get the time to stand properly as Jina kept shooting punches at him while also shooting arrows. Both Jina and Igris exchanged many punches, their fists met sending shock waves and destroying the ground underneath them.

Suddenly the ground started shaking once again, but this time two big hands made up of stones emerged and held Igris' both hands.

Jina with lightning speed appeared on the shoulders of Igris and with all her power, crushed Igris' head between her hands. Killing him instantly.

[YOU HAVE SLAIN BLOOD-RED COMMANDER IGRIS]

[YOU HAVE LEVELED UP]

[YOU HAVE LEVELED UP]

"Haah, Haah, he was really a tough opponent." Jina said catching her breath.

[YOU HAVE OBTAINED RED KNIGHT'S HELMET, DOMINATOR'S TOUCH, LEATHER POUCH AND HEART STONE]

Seeing the message, Jina smiled and opened the leather pouch and obtained 1,500,000 gold, making her gold a total of 3,115,629. She then wore the helmet and it instantly got disappeared and her strength and vitality increased by 20 points. She then broke the rune stone and obtained the dominator's touch.

[THE JOB CHANGE QUEST WILL NOW BEGIN]

As the message appeared, many portals opened and many metal knights, archers and magicians came out of them. Seeing them, Jina didn't felt scared, on the other hand she smiled.

"Come at me. I am going to break you all into pieces." She said and jumped towards them, and punched two metal knights, killing them instantly. Then many spikes came out of the floor, piercing 4 knights and killing them. And just like that Jina kept killing them and after half an hour she killed all the magicians as only by killing them the quest would complete.

[ALL MONSTERS IN THE ROOM HAVE BEEN SLAIN. THE QUEST WILL NOW END]

[YOU WILL BE ABLE TO CHOOSE A CLASS BASED ON THE POINTS YOU HAVE COLLECTED]

[A JOB WILL BE GRANTED AFTER THE PLAYER'S ACTIONS HAVE BEEN ANALYSED]

"Finally the time has come." Jina commented after seeing the messages. She has been waiting for this particular moment, the moment she would gain the powers of the Shadow Monarch.

[WHEREVER THE PLAYER GOES, THE REAPER FOLLOWS]

[THE PLAYERS PATH IS LITTERED WITH CORPSES AND THE SMELL OF BLOOD]

....

[YOU JOB IS "NECROMANCER"]

[WILL YOU ACCEPT YOUR JOB (Y/N)]

"Of course, I will accept." With a excited look, Jina clicked on the yes button.

[YOUR JOB HAS BEEN CHOSEN]

[BASED ON THE POINTS YOU HAVE ACCUMULATED, YOU WILL BE GIVEN A CHANCE TO PROMOTE TO A SUPERIOR CLASS]

....

As the messages kept appearing, the shadows around Jina moved and got absorbed inside her body.

[YOU WILL BE PROMOTED FROM NECROMANCER TO SHADOW LORD]

[YOU HAVE LEARNED A JOB EXCLUSIVE SKILL]

[YOU HAVE OBTAINED STATS]

[YOU HAVE OBTAINED THE TITLE 'THE ONE WHO OVERCAME ADVERSITY']

Many more messages appeared, making Jina more excited and soon a series of words appeared on the dead metal knights bodies.

[SHADOW EXTRACTION CAN BE USED ON THIS TARGET]

[SHADOW EXTRACTION CAN BE USED ON THIS TARGET]

....

[PLEASE SELECT YOUR COMMAND PHRASE FOR SHADOW EXTRACTION]

Seeing the newest message, Jina smiled, "Do I really need to think, it's.....'Arise'."

As she said the shadows of the dead metal knights moved and from them hands came out. The hands then using the ground, pulled their whole bodies out. Soon many knights made up of pure darkness with some blue energy leaking from their eyes appeared in front of Jina.

It was a scene that Jina has dreamed in her previous life but now it was not a dream anymore, she now has the power of Monarch of Shadows. Knowing that she could only save 20 shadow soldiers at the current moment, Jina canceled 11 weakest shadow soldiers, leaving one spot for the upcoming red commander.

"Now let's make him awake." Jina said, looked towards Igris and walked towards him. She came near him and raised her right hand.

"Stop protecting the seat of someone who has already left, and try protecting me who's in front of you. Arise." Just as she finished speaking, pure dark black shadows, covered Igris body and soon out of his shadow, a black Igris came out, looking more cooler them before.

[YOU HAVE UPGRADED THE SHADOW]

[THE SHADOW'S LEVEL WILL BE 7]

[SHADOWS HIGHER THEN RANK KNIGHT CAN BE NAMED]

Seeing the messages, Jina said, "From today onwards, you are 'Igris'. My first commander." Just as she finished speaking, the name on Igris head changed, and upgraded to the name that Jina gave him, "Let's now check my status." She said and opened her status window.

[WOMEN- JOOHEE, JINHA] (Not in the system, just for information)

After seeing her status, Jina was satisfied and just at that moment, all the Shadow Soldiers kneeled in front of her, with Igris at the front acting as their commander. Seeing her shadow soldiers kneeling in front of her, Jina truly felt like a Monarch, someone who was born to rule over others. Then Jina called them back and came out of the dungeon.

The moment she came out, she saw that it was still night, "Looks like I completed the mission earlier. Well it's good, because now I would get more time to rest, and I also has to visit Jinha's school tomorrow." She said and suddenly winds started to blow around her. Her body slowly started to lift from the ground and started floating in the air. Then with a sound she flew towards the sky.

Swish!

"Haha, it's much better then by going through car and once I have 100% perfection over wind element, then I can even fly much faster." Jina said as she felt cold wind passing through her body. It was much more convenient. Suddenly a thought came in her mind and she stopped in the air. Then landed on a near by building.

"Let's check if I can control shadows to see my surroundings or places." Jina said with a interested look. She got this idea by remembering another famous webnovel named 'Blessed by Night'.

Even though both of them doesn't have same powers but one thing was common between then, which was that the former uses night to peak on others while Jina has the power of shadows, so she thought that she could also do the same.

Thinking of this, Jina closed her eyes and started to feel the shadows around her. Soon enough she could feel the shadows around her to a range of 1km and through those shadows she can even peak in the places.

As she was exploring her surrounding suddenly her eyes stopped on a particular room, where a man was beating a woman while one girl wearing nurse clothes was protecting the woman.

Seeing the girl in the green nurse clothes, Jina's eyes opened wide and she felt extreme anger. That girl was none other then Yoora.

"How dare he!" She said with an angry look and flew towards Yoora's house direction with full speed.

Swish!

__________

"I am fucking telling you to give me money!" A middle aged man said with an angry look as he tried to hit the woman in front of him, but was stopped by Yoora.

"Uncle! Stop abusing aunt! I have already gave you my savings! What more do you need!" Yoora asked with tears in her eyes as she tried to protect her aunt. Her aunt was the one who raised her after her parents death while enduring her husband.

At first, Yoora thought that if she got a job and started giving money to her uncle, then he might not abuse her aunt. But even after giving her uncle money every month, he continued to abuse her aunt.

"Stop funking with me you brat! That woman is nothing more then a waste, who can't even get pregnant! Stop interfering between us!" Yoora's uncle said with red eyes, while Yoora's aunt who was behind Yoora started crying while holding her stomach.

"Who are you calling a waste! Aunt has already taken the test and she is perfectly fine! So it's you who is waste." Yoora siad. Her uncle was not always like this, it all started when her aunt couldn't became pregnant and in her uncle's office everyone started to mock him, by calling him infertile.

After not enduring the moking anymore, Yoora's uncle started to drink and started beating her aunt, venting the anger of office on her.

"How dare you!" As the middle aged man said with boiling eyes, he raised his hand to slap Yoora, but suddenly they heard a loud sound, like something came with high speed and suddenly the ceiling above their head broke and a person came through it.

For some seconds the room was filled with dust but ones the dust settled down the person who came through the ceiling came in view.

Seeing the person, Yoora's eyes opened wide and she felt extremely happy, "J-Jina!" She said in an emotional tone.

"W-Who a-are you!" Seeing the woman who came through the ceiling, Yoora's uncle asked in fear. He could tell that the woman in front of him was not normal.
