I Have Come To End This Fight - I Have Come To End This Fight chapter 69
Episode 69. stimulus (2)
With the appearance of the Black Swordsmen, the sound of the 50 units of conversation disappeared.
‘come.’
‘What are you going to talk about?’
After the hundred steps ceremony, what was delivered to the 50th group who woke up from fainting was that the regular assembly day was Monday and that they should gather by 9 o’clock.
There was no explanation of what a regular set was.
I just wanted it to be a day to gather regularly as the name suggests.
On the one hand, I was looking forward to it.
Since it is a place to collect all 50 units, there will be some announcement.
It was hoped that this would probably guide them in the direction they should go in the future.
Because of this, the riders held their breath and followed the movements of the Black Swordsmen.
Jerk-jerk-.
The Black Swordsman finally stood in front of the riders.
At the forefront was a pale-faced man wearing glasses.
Rather than a Black Swordsman, he had a face that seemed to suit a secretary.
Because he looked cold and sober, it gave me the impression that he must be quite conservative.
And it fit exactly.
chuck-.
Standing in front of the riders, the spectacled black swordsman immediately took a rest and stance.
he shouted in a hard voice.
“I will inform you. Saturday, January 20th, 9pm. There will be 50 integrated quests. You will have to bear the disadvantages of being late or absent. That concludes the notice. dissolution!”
The black swordsman with glasses immediately turned away after leaving those words.
It looked like everyone was about to leave.
This made the riders perplexed.
“… end?”
“Is this the end?”
For today’s assembly, there were people who waited for as little as several hours or as long as several days.
But that’s the end of it with just those words.
It was to the point of anger beyond bewilderment and absurdity.
Some of them raised their voices.
“What is the alternative quest?”
“you’re right! Shouldn’t you explain what a quest is?”
“You said it was January 20th, so what are we doing until then?”
As one person opened the question, other questions poured in here and there.
At this, the black swordsman in glasses stopped for a moment.
Seruk-.
Turning around, he raised his glasses and replied cynically.
“Why are you asking me that?”
“yes?”
“I still haven’t come to my senses.”
“… … .”
“If you’re curious about what the quest is, I’ll find out for myself, and if you don’t know what to do by January 20th, take your time. We do not force you unless it is an official cradle event.”
As soon as he finished speaking, there was silence.
It was a shocking story for those who had just become jockeys.
Because of this, one of them responded in a voice full of resentment.
“then… Then why did we come to the cradle? If you’re not going to tell me anything or do anything! … Why did we come to the cradle! What the hell am I supposed to learn here!”
“you’re right! Why did we go through the forest of beginnings and become riders… This seems a little too much!”
As voices of sympathy came out here and there, the man with glasses snorted.
“Who told you to come?”
“yes?”
“Someone threatened you with a knife to kill you if you didn’t enter the cradle.”
“That, that… … .”
“It is your choice to enter the dragon’s cradle. And since you are in the cradle, follow the way of the cradle. If you don’t like that, don’t flinch in front of me and leave the cradle. No one will catch you.”
“… … .”
“And the cradle does nothing? That’s funny. Just this time, I’ll correct your stupid thoughts.”
The glasses man’s cynicism deepened.
“It’s not that the cradle doesn’t do anything for you. It just doesn’t give to anyone.”
“yes?”
“If you want to get your hands on what Yoram has to offer, be qualified. Otherwise, you won’t get anything out of this cradle.”
The Black Swordsman, who had silenced the riders with cold logic, quietly turned around and disappeared.
The first regular assembly of the 50 units ended before even 5 minutes.
As a result, the 50th class, which had not yet adapted to the cradle, fell into further confusion.

Meanwhile, Arin and Poppy were watching from a corner.
“It is too much. Can you give me a bit more detail on that? is not it?”
“hungry!”
They were also dissatisfied with the Black Swordsman’s coldness.
The heads of the two turned to one side.
It was to ask for someone’s consent.
“… uh?”
“… hungry?”
However, those who would agree with them had long since disappeared without a trace.
Arin admired this.
“Wow, when did he disappear? Are you sure you were behind a while ago?”
“… … ?!”
A glass that disappeared before anyone knew it.
Poppy’s pupils shook at that fact.
chin-.
A small hand came up on his shoulder.
When Poppy’s head turned naturally, Arin was there with a wide smile.
“Can you help me find it?”
“I’m hungry… … .”
Poppy’s face turned to tears.

As soon as the Black Swordsman finished the notice, Yuri quietly backed away.
Other riders here and there complained and ran away from Arin and Poppy in the chaos.
The reason he did that was simple.
‘I can’t tell them where I’m hiding.’
Even though he opened his face, he didn’t know why they were hanging out beside him.
I had only seen their faces a few times and exchanged words a few times, so I had no way of knowing their purpose.
At least people you can completely trust.
Yuri had no intention of revealing her hiding place to anyone other than those people.
Of course, he could only count on one hand the people Yuri had trusted throughout his life.
After removing the lump called Arin and Poppy, Yuri ran out of the forest with a fresh face.
‘There’s a lot of work to do, but let’s start with building a hideout.’
The first official quest in the cradle is on the 20th.
There are now about 12 days left.
In it, you should stock up on food and other items, including shelter.
If so, it will take a little time.
‘It must be quite busy for a while.’
While I was thinking about my future schedule, I had arrived at the rift before I knew it.
Yuri sneaked into the crack like a shotgun.
blame -.
After going back and forth a few times, Yuri’s movements were quite familiar.
However, his footsteps were heading straight for the training ground, not his residence.
There was only one reason.
‘Now!’
To finish the work I couldn’t finish this morning.
It means stealing the glowstone.
Yuri sneaked a glimpse of Thearesia’s residence as she headed toward the arena.
Confirming that he did not feel the presence of people, he slipped down to the entrance of the arena.
Then, I was startled by a small sound coming from the arena.
Shack-.
“no way… … ?”
Yuri’s face hardened as she entered the arena with anxious eyes.
There, there was Thearesia, who was still throwing her spear in the same appearance as when she saw it at dawn.
Yuri looked at her with a surprised face.
same location.
same attitude.
Just where Thearesia is standing.
The black mark from her sweat was much larger than when Yuri saw it at dawn.
Shack-.
Seeing that she was still engrossed in training even though he had come, Yuri stuck out her tongue.
‘Has he been doing that since dawn?’
Admiring the fact that he could train for such a long time without moving in one place, Yuri slowly approached Thearesia.
“Hey, Tessa-senpai.”
And the closer he got to Thearesia, the closer he got.
Yuri’s face hardened even more.
“… … .”
As you get closer, you can see Thearesia’s condition in detail.
She was very emaciated compared to what she had seen the day before.
But what surprised Yuri more than anything was that her pupils were dilated.
Like the eyes of a dead fish.
“no way… … ?”
Thearesia still threw out her spear even though Yuri approached right behind her.
In response, Yuri carefully placed her hand on her shoulder.
OK.
Full-.
Thearesia’s model, which she had been diligently spearing until then, collapsed like a lie.
Urgently accepting her, Yuri realized that his assumption was correct when he saw Thearesia with her eyes closed.
“Even when I lose consciousness… Did you continue your training?”
What kind of tenacity is it that makes you throw a spear even while you are unconscious?
It’s a simple personal training, but it goes this far?
And how much did you abuse your body so easily that you could lose consciousness and fall down just by putting your shoulder on it?
‘… no way?’
Realizing something, Yuri muttered as if possessed.
“Since yesterday?”
After sparring with herself, Thearesia went into personal training.
Could it be that since then, he has been throwing spears without a break?
“… … .”
Yuri stared blankly at Thearesia’s messed up face, who had fainted.
For some reason, a strange sense of frustration and irritation crept up in his chest.
‘why?’
Yuri did not know the identity of the frustration and irritation.
He couldn’t figure out why he was so wrapped up in these feelings.
However, seeing the fainting Thearesia, he only felt the frustration and annoyance deepen.
“Whoa… … .”
After letting out a long breath and trying to shake off the unknown emotions, Yuri put her hand to Thearesia’s nose.
‘Isn’t he dead?’
Seeing that he was breathing, it seemed that he was not dead.
Thearesia was in a deep sleep, drenched in sweat and in a mess.
It was impossible to leave her like this anyway, so Yuri wrapped her around her.
He was thinking of moving Thearesia to his place of residence.
‘Previously… … .’
Two eyes of glass glancing at the ceiling.
a while after that.
Of course, Thearesia was carried on Yuri’s back as she left the arena, and in her hand was a glowstone that scattered light.
fault-!
As soon as they reached the residence after knocking Thearesia over, her residence was clearly exposed by the light of the glowstone.
A simple bed with several blankets stacked on top of each other.
Other than that, Thearesia’s abode with a few bowls.
It was such a desolate space that I wondered how I had ever lived here.
“… … .”
Yuri, who laid Thearesia on the blanket, stared at her blankly for a moment.
The unexplained frustration and irritation continued.
In the end, Yuri turned around and left Thearesia’s residence.
And the moment he returned to his place without a word, his face hardened.
Yuri immediately drew his sword.
‘intruder!’
Clearly, footprints other than her own were clearly imprinted on the cave floor.
However, the footprints were a bit unusual.
‘Footprints… one?’
There was only one footprint left on the cave floor.
The rest is just a small mark, as if he had been using a cane.
‘… Could this be?’
Surprised, Yuri held out the glowstone.
Along with him, the cave slowly became colored with light, and the first thing that entered the light was an old wooden prosthetic leg.
Jip-.
And soon after that came an old, pale voice.
“Eh, where are you running around like that! You’ve been waiting for a long time!”
Hearing the gruff voice he hadn’t heard in a long time, Yuri smiled lightly without even realizing it.
“If that’s your complaint, then make an appointment and come.”
“Hey, kid. How come that goddamn sprout doesn’t get better. Tsk tsk.”
with a short clicking sound.
Into the light Johann Redner fully entered.
