Ronobe didn’t know.
What it means to deal with the soul. Charles gave us a brief explanation of what the soul is and how to deal with it.
The soul is a flower.
The falling petals were the countless traces of the soul. Yes, dealing with the soul is the same as dealing with the soul that is dissolved in life.
A more intense, more sinister trace of the soul.
I think I know why the gods like high-ranking souls that have a lot of blood and shine like heroes. Such souls are more abundant. It is easy to do something with them, and it is natural that the same magic will be more effective when used with them.
petal.
To Ronobe, the soul was now a flower.
Some had few petals, some had many. It was just a change in perspective, but even the shape of the soul changed as I thought. It was amazing. When I learned the essence of the soul and thought about it differently and accepted it, didn’t the shape of the essence change? Ronobe used the Golhonyuu on the falling petals. The fallen petals turned into fish with faint tails and swam around Ronobe.
Just one soul.
However, the number of soul-sucking creatures it created was over twenty. Even though they were soul-sucking creatures derived from one soul, each had a different personality. Some were curious, some were reckless, and some were aggressive. The soul-sucking creatures were created by using the traces of memories scattered by the flower petals as their hosts.
“There is no need to give orders one by one.”
These are the guys swimming in the fish tank called Ronobe. Now that I know the nature of the soul, I think I know what to do.
Ronobe used the Golhonyu language.
Using four more Golhonyu, he summoned hundreds of larvae and set them free. The larvae scattered and ate things that had fallen on trees or the ground. Then, as soon as Ronobe clapped his hands together, hundreds of Golhonyu came together in an instant and transformed into a huge fish. It was not a whale, but a shark in size. It was big enough to cover Ronobe’s body, and it was big enough to easily eat several people.
‘That’s amazing.’
Just by knowing the essence of the soul, this became possible. It’s as simple as handling oil. Moreover, the maintenance time has increased exponentially. I get the feeling.
“Half a day would be possible.”
In order to maintain the summons, Ronobe usually suppressed the Golhonyu language to some extent. He may have restrained their actions, been cautious, and even guarded himself.
But not anymore.
“I like having my head stroked.”
When he stroked the head of Golhonyu, it squirmed as if it was happy. Ronobe compressed Golhonyu into a smaller size and let it move around freely. The magic itself wasn’t stronger, but it was definitely more versatile than before. Now, he wouldn’t let the orcs defeat him like before.
“Is it thunder on the ground next?”
Perhaps because I’m not used to it yet, I couldn’t use Earth Thunder in the battle with Rakaku. In the first place, even if I did use it, all it could do was upset the enemy’s balance. That’s why I didn’t use it, but if I think about it, it’s strange. Did Urdis really defeat a strong enemy using only Earth Thunder?
‘no.’
Ground thunder is the force that amplifies the waves generated by striking the ground.
The land is not important.
The vibrations that eventually extend from the impact.
The waves of this extreme vibration are given.
The splitting of the land is secondary.
therefore.
“Thunder on the ground.”
Ronobe stretched out his finger. The destination of his extended index finger was the fallen tree where he had tested Bonka’s Akan. As soon as Ronobe’s hand touched the fallen tree, bang! Boom! The tree could not hold on and burst, splitting into pieces.
“Why am I so stupid?”
Even with this great power, I was defeated by Rakaku. I felt ashamed. I felt embarrassed and sorry. To Urdisa who had given me this great power.
One realization spread out like a tree branch, bursting forth in flashes of light.
‘If it’s just a simple vibration amplification that’s not limited to the ground, it shouldn’t be difficult to apply it to other magic as well.’
For example, yes.
“Like a bear roar.”
There is also a bear roar that makes the opponent stiffen with a loud sound. It was a technique that I had forgotten for a while because I didn’t have any use for it, but if I mix it with the thunder of the ground and use it, I will show a different performance than before. And that’s not all. If I mix it with Viktor’s eye peck, it will show even more power. It won’t just peck the eye, but it will also be able to burst the head.
“Even if used with soft soil.”
It seems like it would be useful in an emergency situation. It would be easier to transform terrain more effectively on soft ground than on solid ground. In the north, the ground is frozen, so it doesn’t split easily even when using Ground Thunder.
After thinking about it for a moment, he made up his mind.
“I need to learn some martial arts.”
In order to effectively use Earth Thunder, you need to have some fighting skills. In order to properly fight against an Orc Grandmaster, you need to have some fighting skills. It is right to cultivate the ability to respond to enemies who approach you, even if it is just a little. Even though you have Nass now, in order to effectively use Earth Thunder, you need to gain experience in close combat with Ronobedo.
Knights tend to fight while taking care of their own bodies, so they can respond to a certain extent.
But the Orcs are not like that. They just keep pushing forward even if their arms or internal organs are torn out. In order to survive in the North where such arrogance is a given, Ronobe had to devise a way to deal with them.
“Liam!”
The easy one was Liam.
“Sparring? With me?”
Liam wasn’t feeling too good.
It was because I got beat up in a duel with Nas just yesterday, and now even Ronobe seemed to be looking down on my skills.
“I was the Sist Immortal. Did you forget?”
“You were the pepper king.”
“He’s also the king of peppers.”
Liam seriously asked why and Ronnobe told him what he thought.
“What kind of magic have you devised that you are learning unarmed combat?”
“show me?”
Ronobé dragged Liam to a tree near base camp and hit him with his fist.
“Cheonma Shinkwon!”
bang!
The tree split open with a bang.
“Can’t you use that from a distance?”
Ronobe nodded to Liam’s question, which he asked with a bewildered face. To be honest, I had never tried it, but I knew it wouldn’t work. That’s because I understood the principle. It’s a concept of amplifying the vibration frequency generated by the shock extending from the body. It’s very difficult to put this into long-distance magic. I might be able to do it someday, but it won’t be now.
“Are you going to use that when you spar?”
“If you use it, you’ll die. Don’t be too scared. Even though it’s called sparring, it’s really just a simple level of learning.”
I’m just trying to learn a few tips.
If you learn a thing or two from Liam, Benny, and Nas, you’ll probably have a few useful tips for battle.
“I’m going to rest for a day or two anyway.”
Although he had escaped from the orcs of Lapain, he would not leave the North like this. Ronobe was planning to attack Lapain again. A wizard is someone who shows a clear difference in power on a battlefield where he is fully prepared, rather than in a battle where he is not prepared.
I don’t need anything else.
‘If I just put a few of the protozoan’s toadies in there, it’ll be over. Well.’
Although they say there is no oil, it is not impossible to obtain it. There is a way to obtain a little oil by using soft soil.
“Then please.”
“All right.”
*
Three days passed.
“Soft ground. Jiyu.”
I made a visceral sword here and there and gave it to Bonka, strengthening the number of times I could use the soft ground and the magic itself. The soft ground that could only be used four times before has now been changed to six times. The same goes for the pushing ground. The range of the soft ground itself has also been increased, so even hard frozen ground can be made soft, and it has become possible to obtain oil to some extent.
‘Is it time?’
Ronobé sat in the carriage, calming his mind and body and looking at a single vial of medicine.
It was an elixir received from Ashwald.
It is not very big. It is about the size of a palm. However, the magic contained within it is very powerful.
“This kind of thing is usually eaten later… but there’s nothing I can do about it.”
It’s urgent now.
Ronobe opened the cork of the elixir.
Mulberry! Along with the sound, a fragrant aroma filled the carriage. A pleasant scent of grass. It was a strange feeling as if a rich scent was sticking to my body.
“Okay, here we go!”
Ronobe drank it all in one go.
I asked Peter too. He said that when you drink the elixir, your body becomes weak and you enter a strange state of awakening, where you see visions. He said that in that place, whatever magic you use will come true as you wish, and you can freely carry out your will.
“Not at all?”
But it wasn’t Ronobe.
As soon as I drank it, my eyes suddenly turned and the path of my dreams appeared.
“Is that because he is the wise man of the forest?”
It’s a little disappointing that there aren’t as many changes as I thought. However, the fact that the path to my dreams has opened means that I’ve grown to the next level.
There is nothing wrong with that.
“uh?”
What you see is indeed the path of the beast.
The milky beast looks at Ronobe.
From the left, there were a buffalo, a leopard, a wolf, and a crocodile.
Maybe because I drank the elixir.
Normally, only some kind of beast would have come out, but for some reason, useful things came out.
“Wow! Wolf! Wow! Leopard!”
The buffalo and crocodiles were nowhere to be seen.
The strongest predator among the canines, the wolf!
The top predator of the feline family, the leopard!!
“My shabby past is finally coming to light.”
I thought of the past, starting with a sparrow, then a civet, then a cat, and finally a wild boar. How long have I been passing by, waiting for this day!!
“Wolf or leopard? That is the question. Which one will you choose?”
I like leopards and I like wolves.
Finally, I can learn the fucking transformation magic! Anything would be fine. But you only have one choice.
‘Is it really a leopard rather than a wolf?’
The path of the beast will not end in one go. Where will this path end? There will definitely be a further path. If you think about it with that in mind, a leopard is more appropriate than a wolf.
because.
“After the leopard, maybe the tiger will come next.”
Ronobe, who has the blood of the Joseon people who were also called the guardians of the nation. The wolf is cool, but I can’t think of a higher-tier individual connected to it. However, if I choose the leopard, tigers and lions immediately come to mind. I think it would be right to choose an individual with a little more potential and a higher tier.
“The tiger is cool.”
A tiger is better than a wolf.
The top predator of felines that can freely use its front paws. If it were to turn into a tiger, it would be able to fight in various battles. If you only look at its combat specs, a leopard would be better than a wolf. The wolf is also cool, but… Ronobe has a strange desire that all Joseon people have.
“Wait, wait. Even so, let’s look at something else.”
I was so excited.
Ronobe decided to change direction and check out another path. It wouldn’t be too late to make a choice later. When he turned, he came across the bug path. Since he had chosen the mosquito path before, a variety of insects appeared. There were ants, bees, and water bugs. Since there were mosquitoes, it didn’t really matter, so he quickly changed direction. The totem path appeared. Since he had obtained Mandong, no other totems had appeared on the totem path.
“It’s the same here too.”
Unfortunately, the Totem Path was still not worth seeing, as there was nothing else to see except for a strange plant-related path.
Ronobe looked at the path of the beast again and fell into thought.
“The crocodile…”
When I saw the crocodile, I thought of Urdisa’s quest. The sunken sky island. In order to find it, I had to go into the sea. Choosing the crocodile for that time would be one option.
‘Not now.’
Urdisa’s quests are not time-limited. And more than anything, the time is now. In addition to crocodiles, there may be other entities that appear later.
Right now, the leopard that was active in the north, which was in urgent need, looked good.
“Leopard, I choose you!”
As if it had been waiting, I followed the leopard and it rushed at me and tore at my Ronobe.
Familiar pain.
But just because it was familiar didn’t mean it didn’t hurt. I was about to open my eyes again, swearing.
I got a feeling.
“iced coffee!”
The power of elixir.
It’s not over yet.
Another path opened up before Ronobe.
A path of infinite possibilities unfolds before Ronobe, who has gained the power of a leopard.
“Rhinoceros, hippopotamus, zebra.”
And one more thing.
“What is this… is this real?!”
If it’s out of the blue, then it’s a random beast.
“What the heck is a werewolf…!!”
A bipedal werewolf appears.
The Wolf of Lapaine [2]
