Episode 48 – The conflict created by the environment is very deep

#One

The village where Lucas was born and raised was surrounded by mountains on all sides, and served as a bridge between cities.

A place where people come and go for a long time is called a [road].

The place created by the accumulation of steps over time has become an area where humans travel.

The village in between was a very precious resting place and a strategic point where goods and people came and went.

Lucas, who grew up in a prosperous village, admired the daily commuters and admired the swordsmen who guarded them.

I think it was probably around that time that I had a vague dream of wanting to hold a sword.

The age when even a tree branch lying on the street could become a great knight and warrior.

The friends who were hanging out together were full of adventure that day.

Even though his parents warned him to be careful, Lucas didn’t stop going on adventures with his friends.

This is because I remembered someone saying that adventure is essentially rushing toward danger despite the opposition of others.

And that day, Lucas lost his childhood friends.

“Foxes, wolves, and cat beastmen are just thieves.”

“Oh, no!? Ugh!?”

A fox beast standing in front of Lucas’ flashing sword.

After the appearance of the warlocks, the first race to perish was the beastman.

This was partly because they lived in tribal units, but also because their unique habits made it easy for them to fight off each other.

After becoming a knight of light, the undead I killed the most were those who had turned into beasts.

Because of that, it was impossible for him to look good in his eyes.

Hwanwoong blocked the path of Lucas, who was trembling at the sight of a beastman.

“Now is not the time to fight. Lucas, you should stop and take the lead.”

“sorry. master. but… … Beastmen are an unreliable species.”

“what the! master! “I have something to say too, won’t you listen!?”

“Let’s leave first. “Let’s fight our emotions later, when we get the chance.”

Hwanwoong frowned and started to direct traffic.

This is because there was no time to dawdle as this tower requires you to kill enemies within a time limit.

Fortunately, they were the ones who obediently followed Hwanung’s orders without going against them.

“If it weren’t for you Master, you would already be dead.”

“Hmph, what do you say?”

Hwanwoong sighed softly.

There are already guys who will have to work together in the future… … .

If there was one thing I realized, it was that the people who would be summoned in the future would also have complicated, intertwined stories.

It would be your role to solve this problem and make it a team.

It would be comfortable if I roughly ordered it, but for some reason, I don’t feel comfortable.

Is this the heart of someone who leads someone?

There is one more thing that needs to be resolved.

[Time limit: 26:21]

The time limit is 30 minutes, but 3 minutes have already passed.

Hwanwoong put aside his personal feelings and looked at those taking a fighting stance.

If your guess is correct, there seems to be a deeper story… … .

I’ll have to wait and see.

What about in battle?

The last time I fought the boss, I went through the battle without any problems.

It might have gone smoothly because we didn’t recognize each other.

Hwanung watched the first battle with cool eyes.

“They are demons. “They are all people who need to be eliminated.”

“I’ll take care of the undead.”

“Gil Tae-rang, don’t disturb me and just take care of the little things.”

“Never mind.”

A den of demons and undead visible in the distance.

Looking at the place filled with the energy of darkness, the summons burned their fighting spirit.

“They are intruders! Everyone prepare for battle!”

Ding ding ding!

The first battle of the first stage.

The clash began with Godric charging forward with his shield.

Kwaaaaaaaaaaaa!

The barrier ahead was tragically destroyed.

A barrier made of thin mana at best.

In front of Godric’s enormous mass, he was no different from a piece of paper.

Enemies fly like bowling pins.

Lucas’ Auror attacks after Godric’s charge.

“Everyone die.”

Suddenly!

The silver light drew a long line.

It is so powerful that those caught in the line are separated from top to bottom.

The skeletons and corpses that had been summoned were cut up in one go.

Miho, who was watching this scene from behind, trembled and gritted her teeth.

Lucas’ appearance brought out his inherent fear.

She closed her eyes tightly and remembered the events of that day.

‘no. ‘I decided not to think about it any more.’

Dark energy, reanimated corpses, grim laughter and terrible screams.

A disaster in which the forest burned down and all life disappeared.

Even now that I regained consciousness, something warm spread through the vivid nightmares that come to mind whenever I close my eyes.

When I open my eyes again, I see a man.

“are you okay?”

“Oh that… … .”

“It seems like a bad memory came to mind.”

Even though it was a virgin, it was good.

Because there was a time when I wanted to receive something like that.

Miho quietly nodded.

I didn’t know why, but I felt it instinctively.

That he is the master who gave him a second life.

Even though freedom was gone, I was able to breathe and live again.

I guess I should repay the favor.

“Same goes for them. “When I listened to it, I realized that each person had a story.”

“… … .”

“There may be bad feelings building up now, but if we continue to be together in the future, misunderstandings will be resolved. More than anything-.”

I could see the negative emotions peeling off Miho’s face little by little.

Hwanung smiled slightly and gave her a little courage.

“The kids fighting over there are not weak.”

“I’m sorry, master. I look ugly… … .”

“Well, it’s all like that. “Go and help.”

Miho nodded and raised her head to look ahead.

Did you say Lucas?

He and countless other humans, animals, and spirits were defeating evil.

Can he erase his helpless past?

Miho thought so for a moment and took a deep breath.

As the successor to the fox beast chieftain, she acquired many abilities.

Ugh-.

As she closed her eyes and concentrated, three blue orbs appeared.

[Fox Orb]

[Summon and control fox beads.]

[As the user’s tail increases, the number of beads, speed, and attack power increase.]

[Currently available beads: 3]

“Yes, I will help you. I don’t like it, but… … .”

“Good idea.”

It would be nice if I could maintain a good relationship with Lucas.

Hwanwoong looked at Miho running away and Lucas steadily suppressing the enemy.

They are enemies, but what can you do?

The emotions caused by the original environment are probably deeper than anything else.

Among those feelings, there are probably some that have been passed down through time and have taken firm root.

There was still more I didn’t know about Lucas.

If you get other summons, you will gradually get to know them.

“Then is it over there now?”

Let’s just watch Miho and Lucas for now.

Now I turn my attention to the situation of Gil Taerang and Eyasu.

The two were surprisingly similar summoned beasts.

A summon that is good at guerrilla warfare and specializes in dealing with multiple enemies alone.

Moreover, Gil Taerang was a summon with much better abilities than expected.

Could it be said that it truly specializes in miscellaneous mobs?

[Indomitable spirit]

[Does not render you incapable of combat.]

[When there are 10 or more enemies nearby, all abilities +3]

[Swordsmanship of an extinct family: Now we use the swordsmanship of an extinct family.]

[Ignores enemy defense by 20%.]

[20% of the damage inflicted is absorbed as stamina.]

[Survivor of an extinct family: Increases stamina, agility, and strength for 10 minutes.]

[Amplification value: 10]

[If there are two or more enemies nearby, the effect doubles.]

[After 10 minutes, all abilities are reduced by half.]

“He’s a very murderous mob slayer.”

It seems like Eyasu and Gil Tae-rang would be a good match.

Hwanung chuckled and decided to watch the battle some more.

#2

Gil Taerang was a ronin.

To be exact, I became a ronin.

By the hand of the woman in front of me, Eyasu.

The family she belonged to was headed by Meng.

The family to which Gil Tae-rang belongs is affiliated with Maeng.

It was also the family that was in charge of the vanguard.

‘Was there this much of a difference?’

I knew that the hunting dogs of that family were excellent.

I felt it myself.

Was there confusion in my memory?

Or did something else happen in the meantime?

Her inaction was completely different from the sight of the hunting dog that she vaguely remembered.

Eyasu swings his sword leaving an afterimage.

It is a silent swordsmanship that does not even make the sound that is inevitably made when swinging the sword.

Gil Taerang’s tongue clicked at the speed and accuracy that made it hard to believe that it was a fragile woman’s body.

At the same time, he removed the sticky and irritating things that stuck to him.

‘Can I reach it?’

Before I close my eyes, I don’t even know where I am in the passing years.

Eyasu was always one step ahead.

He swung his sword from a much further distance than himself, who held a very important position in the family.

Hounds that shattered armor and took on important enemy figures.

Eyasu was known as a unique being among them.

“Don’t bother me… … ?”

The man felt something stirring inside his heart.

You have pride, but if you remain silent even after hearing such words, you are not a warrior.

Gil Taerang held his sword tightly and swung it like he always did.

Suddenly!

A feeling of slaughter that I have now become accustomed to.

He lit a fire in his heart to catch up with her who was ahead.

‘Gil Tae and… … .’

Eyasu was also conscious of him, so Gil Taerang was objectively a miserable person.

I didn’t see his last days.

Maybe he would have died first.

After hunting dogs tore into the family, the survivors became ronin.

Since they were not accepted anywhere, they simply became mercenaries moving from place to place and disappeared into the dew of the battlefield.

It must have been the same for Gil Tae-rang.

Indeed, what was he thinking as he faced death?

‘What kind of end did I and the place he were in meet? Or, is it still there?’

Suddenly!

When I came to my senses, the battle was already over.

After hitting the last enemy’s head, Eyasu brushed aside his sword and looked at Giltaerang quietly.

After surpassing one level, Gil Taerang’s swordsmanship was truly poor.

My sword skills were a mess, and my breathing was… … .

What is the internal strength like?

“That sucks.”

“What, man!? “You cursed at me just now!?”

“is it so. “It was because my fighting skills were poor.”

“… … “That’s what I mean-.”

Eyasu sighed and laughed.

A clear sneer that is different from the smile shown to Hwanwoong.

Gil Tae-rang was furious, but he couldn’t approach her because of her spirit.

The warrior immediately after the battle is truly the height of ferocity.

A warrior who saw blood was no different from a hunting dog.

As Gil Tae-rang’s life becomes more intense, a nightmare-like incident comes to mind.

“Don’t forget, Gil Taerang. Regardless of your past, here you have to move as one body.”

“… … “Is it because of that person?”

“It means not to go against what has been [imprinted] on us and on you as well.”

“Hehe, I know.”

Eyasu nodded slightly and sharpened his sword.

Then he turned to Hwanung, the protagonist, and spoke.

“Black, I’ll see you later.”

“… … .”

Gil Taerang looked at her back with complicated eyes and sighed deeply.
