31The second word upsets the game board (Episode 110)

Snowfall’s shoulders seemed heavy. 

Whirling-! 

Karen and Karuna were summoned against their owner's will.. 

“…….” 

In their eyes, they saw Mirei lying sleeping in front of the snowfall.. 

body full of arrows. 

When the black part of the body that was a shadow disappeared, Mirei's rotten and decayed body was seen.. 

Karuna stepped forward and picked up Mirei's body.. 

“Where should I move it, master?.” 

“karuna.” 

“Shouldn't we bury it?.” 

“okay.” 

The things that made this place memorable have already disappeared. Houses made of wood and the surrounding environment. 

Kang Seol chose an appropriate spot to bury her.. 

A small burial mound was made, and broken wooden fragments were placed on top of it. Mirei and Sodin's names were written on the pieces of wood.. 

“What should this friend do? It's a bit too much to leave as food for animals... however.” 

“While we're at it, let's bury it together.” 

The body Karen brought was Malachus.. 

The snowfall did not impress the other hunters, but it interested Malachus, who had closed his eyes in death.. 

Especially the words he left as he was dying. 

- When you took my parents, my eyes, and my life, Dir remained by my side. You became a light to me who lost the light.

‘It's you guys... What did Shadowcaller do to him??’ 

I don't know what story is hidden, but from Kang Seol's perspective, he was an enemy. Moreover, the enemy who murdered Mirei, his helper,. 

Of course, it is true that Mirei was in a situation where she could not live long from the beginning, but in the end, she was unable to live beyond today due to Malachus.. 

Snowfall is not sympathizing with the enemy now.. 

The strange feeling that Malachus has continues to haunt me.. 

Why did he become so twisted?. 

“I don't know.” 

“Owner, but... body… are you okay?” 

“Ah, this.” 

Whirling… 

Snowfall and Jamard’s bodies were separated in an instant.. 

[Unlocks the raven form.] 

[Occupation: Shadow Summoner.] 

Jamard felt stiff so I touched his neck.. 

“Moving the body of another being is more tiring than I thought..” 

“Next time I'll try to move myself.” 

“Is it possible??” 

“The sensation itself has completely changed. It may take some getting used to, but you can't control it forever..” 

“whatever you like.” 

Karuna said to Snowfall. 

“Mirei has left. It's a pity.” 

“Yeah, I left. It seemed like we got pretty close in a short while..” 

“She was a good person. She was also a trustworthy person..” 

“If I had met her earlier, if I hadn't headed to Yognathun, would the outcome have been different?.” 

“That is unknown. Because there is nothing anyone can do than peek into the other side of fate. and… Didn't He save many people in Yognathun??” 

That was right.. 

Kang Seol's body was one, and the time ahead was more important than regretting past choices.. 

Karen brightened the mood with her bright voice.. 

“Bygones are bygones, let's check what this villain had.!” 

- okay! that's right! Everyone around Snowman dies anyway.! 

- Snowman has the blessings of Conan and Kim Jeon-il.! 

- Everyone dies! So it's no big deal! 

- ㄹㅇ It’s easier to count survivors haha. 

Kangseol smiled and nodded.. 

“Yeah, I need to prepare for the next adventure too..” 

“good! Okay, then open it..”

“It's not a good thing for a knight to use..” 

“hmm… That's what I'm saying... hmm… Then this can't be happening again….” 

“Heh, I take it well..” 

Jamard grabbed the ring.. 

When I put the ring on Jamard, it stretched and fit on his finger.. 

“You have armor! The ring goes in?” 

“there is space inside.” 

“…Then I have nothing to say.” 

- There is space behind the pillar. 

- There is space inside the armor haha. 

- Shy… Haha, Karen also wore her gloves and a ring inside them. 

Karen said while glaring at Snowfall.. 

“What happened to these two? It seems like he's subtly pushing me... I've changed, master..”

Karen's hand slowly approached.. 

She looked at Karuna for no reason.. 

“Even if I have it... ok?” 

Karuna shrugged.. 

Then Karen’s expression bloomed like a flower.. 

“lol… After all, it’s Karuna.!”

- You don't like it? 

- that's you… 

In addition to this, miscellaneous items were poured out.. 

As it was a dangerous adventure, the rewards were all great and the harvest was very good.. 

Has my heavy heart eased?. 

Kangseol looked at the final reward with a calm smile on his lips.. 

[A letter I would like someone to read] 

Grade: Normal 

Appropriate level: None 

Weight: 0.1kg 

There is something written in the letter. 

Special Abilities: Unknown. 

‘what's this?’ 

It seemed impossible to tell just by looking at the outside.. 

Kang Seol looked at the letter with a curious look and opened it.. 

“…….” 

crooked handwriting. 

However, there are traces of writing steadily.. 

And, the contents within it. 

“…It's a letter from Malachus..” 

“what? What is it about? look where.” 

Kang Seol read the letter.. 

“Hello, I am Malachus. I am blind. I hope that those who read this letter will be generous and understanding even if the writing is sloppy. … what?” 

“keep reading.” 

“I belong to a small noble family of the Timbrians... What did you write? after… Step… Am I right? He was the successor. At least until recently.” 

“Ah, the noble Lord went around catching and killing all the shadow summoners. Is this your family's long-cherished business??” 

“I'll keep reading.” 

- How did the person reading this letter get his hands on it? I plan to carry this letter with me at all times, even when I sleep and during fierce battles. However, the fact that this letter was sent to someone means that I gave it to someone due to unavoidable circumstances.… 

“That means I'm dead to you.” 

“hmm… I feel bad.” 

- You have to accept any result. I have a story to tell you. 

Kang Seol became increasingly curious about the contents of the letter.. 

Malachus still remembered that day. The guys who burned down their happy home and brutally murdered their father, who was once a knight, and their mother, who was a wizard.. 

“don't do it! mom! Daddy ah!” 

“this… There was a child in the mansion. Should I kill you??” 

“It has been done. I don't want to do anything useless. I got what I wanted, so let's go back now..” 

Ambiguous height. Voice of unknown gender. 

The person wearing the robe turned around and tried to leave the mansion.. 

Malachus pounced on him.. 

“Why, why are you killing my mom and dad?!” 

“…hmm? That's outrageous. That's right... To revive it.” 

“what?” 

Hehehe… 

Young Malachus could not believe what was happening before his eyes.. 

The shadows of my parents stood up.. 

“thing… thing… nonsense….” 

“Now your parents can live forever. So don't be too sad.” 

“You bastards! Save my mom and dad!” 

Malachus rushed at his opponent.. 

“This guy….” 

“Ouch!” 

Malachus was pushed away and took off his opponent's gloves.. 

There was a black rose tattooed on the back of his hand. Malachus remembered this even as he fell.. 

‘black rose….’ 

“That's annoying. Take away your eyes. He saw what he should not see..” 

“yes!” 

Chii Iik-! 

A hot skewer burned Malachus' eyes.. 

“Wow!!” 

“You weakling, do you want revenge on me??” 

“I'm going to kill you... It hurts… I will definitely find you….” 

“…I am a shadow summoner. I won't tell you your name, so just find it yourself. And when you grow up and come to me….” 

Young Malachus could not see his opponent.. 

No, since I couldn't see anymore, I wouldn't be able to recognize the other person even if they were in front of me.. 

So I desperately remembered other things. 

From the body odor to the voice that seems to have been altered. 

As much as possible, I should not have forgotten. 

never forget, black rose tattoo. 

“I will also let you be with your parents. forever….” 

“Kid, you lost your eye, so you have to go somewhere and beg to survive. Tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk….” 

They said that's how they left. 

And so, the story of Malachus' past written in the letter ended.. 

Kang Seol’s hand holding the letter gained strength.. 

“This happened.” 

“…I know. But the desire for revenge ultimately brought down Malachus..” 

What Malachus said came to mind.. 

- All shadow summoners must die by my hand..

Driven by madness, he made all shadow summoners his enemies.. 

-…I will liberate all shadows from you. That is the way for them..

Did you believe that was right?. 

Kang Seol continued to read the letter.. 

“Black rose tattoo on the back of the hand. Neutral voice and not very tall. The smell of medicine coming from the body. I remember them all. I left that person’s scent in the letter..” 

“where… hmm? It smells really good?” 

“It's a peculiar smell..” 

There was a strange scent in the letter.. 

It's hard to forget the scent once you smell it.. 

“You can probably guess why I left this letter. damn….” 

“this….” 

- If you are not a shadow summoner, please find him. I'm not asking you to kill him. My parents… Please save my parents from the hands of that monster. You reading this letter…. 

The letter ended like this:. 

- I hope it's not a shadow summoner. I really hope that someone sends my parents to a place where they need to go. Young Malachus desperately wishes. 

This letter was left by young Malachus before he was devoured by a long-standing vendetta.. 

[I got information about the hidden adventure 'Stockholm Syndrome'.] 

[If the conditions are met, an unexpected adventure will occur..]
