31The second word overturns the game board (Episode 143)
- Black Knight: King! You guys can't beat me!
- Only the dragon that ate rice cake can find it.
- So who is Karuna??
- Sir, the Karuna you brought is fake..
- No way! I got it as a gift!
Kang Seol was nervously sitting on a chair in the corner of the blacksmith shop and folding his hands..
“Are you at least praying??”
“pray? No, it's just that my hands are sore..”
“Well, there is no way there is a God you truly believe in..”
Jamard also knew that the heavenly events that Kangseol experienced should not be revealed carelessly..
Jamard stared at the mountain's fist, which was being consumed by bio-metal..
“There is no need to feel sorry, because it is not an item that reduces the effectiveness of the sacred object or tarnishes its sanctity..”
“If you are, then yes. I don't doubt it. However, I just felt that a lot of time had passed..”
“…Time has passed?”
“Tancrid's scales were themselves sacred to our people. It was the light that illuminated the sharp rock and the hope for the clan to move forward..”
“…….”
Jamard's voice became a little gloomy..
“First, what is the importance of the past now? Those who need to move forward always need a new path..”
“Because everything is bound to change.”
“by the way… I heard that a metal with these properties exists... I can't believe it no matter how many times I see it.”
“It must be a very rare material. The armor rat's biometal is processed without killing the host. If you dispose of it in an instant, the biological metal will turn into an ingot and still think that it is still safely attached to the host..”
“and?”
“When the ingot is melted and exposed to room temperature, the living metal senses that it is in danger of death and instinctively looks for another host. In this case, the host would be the Fist of the Mountain..”
Jamard asked with worried eyes..
“Anything that has a negative effect on the body….”
“Biometals are far from that. They just need a place where they can stay safe. Additionally, these guys have a tendency to make their homes nice places to live, so the possibility of this having a negative impact is extremely low..”
“Is this the only material that has this effect??”
“No, there are so many strange things in Pandea. Some are metal and some are not metal. Of course, they are all as rare as biometals..”
“Replacing things that even I, a native of Pandea, don’t know.….”
- We are wondering that now too..
- Is this what you mean by native-level skills??
- They say this is a higher level than native haha.
A fist of mountains lay on their workbench..
But for some reason, San's fist seemed bigger than usual..
Ddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddd…
Jeokjeok-!
The mountain's fist suddenly cracked..
“…no!”
“What's going on? What happened??”
[Biometal is incongruous with the 'Fist of the Mountain'.]
[Biometals do not adapt.]
[biometal is destroyed.]
Grinding…
Pusss…
Snowfall's expression was distorted, like the face of a sculptor who saw the plaster statue he had worked so hard to carve shattered..
- Baby, wash your face! Metal sucks.!
- Xiamen! Where is Xiamen?!
- Janet! Give me a refund! This is bad!
- Hahaha, it's a bad influence, it's rude, and I don't think it will have any effect.?
“…Was there anything that wasn't explained??”
“……uh. There are many cases where biometals cannot adapt to a new host..”
“to what extent?”
“approximately… about half of half?”
“That's enough….”
“…Successful in the case of.”
“Damn it. How many ingots are there??”
“There are 4 left.”
“Time was running out, but there was a bigger problem than that..”
Although the statistics were not exact, biometal ingots had a very high failure rate..
And the probability of failure became more serious as the grade of the product increased..
The easiest way to describe the biometal ingot was that it was a low-grade reinforcement stone..
Strengthening equipment was usually done through this strengthening stone, except for temporary measures such as enchanting it or having a blacksmith sharpen a blade with a whetstone..
Biometal ingots were of the lower class among the reinforcement stones..
This is not to say that biometal ingots are yawns, they are just called that because they can only be used for level 1 and 2 reinforcements..
Higher grade objects required reinforcing materials that worked in different ways..
This enhancement is quite mysterious, so it cannot be applied to Buddhist exaltations, but it can be used for holy relics, monstrous relics, and sacred relics that each exhibit special performance, including those of the lower level, the treasure level..
Because it was difficult to strengthen a weapon without remelting it and making it into new equipment, some players instead just pounded reinforcement stones into treasure-grade items..
Of course, both methods were extremely expensive..
There was no guarantee that the equipment made by melting down non-exclusive materials would again be of non-exclusive grade, and reinforcement stones were an extremely rare resource..
“Are you going to continue? rather….”
“This is the only way to gain the offensive power to overcome the predator of hope in a short period of time. Even if you manage to resolve the grief, the predator of hope is literally a giant gate..”
And a moment later, the liquid that melted the metal poured onto San's fist..
Rumbling…
[Biometals are intrigued by 'The Fist of the Mountain'.]
[Biometal explores the ‘Fist of the Mountain’.]
“…And it's a big bump that breaks down the gate.”
Pop… pop…
The rain that had lasted for quite some time has stopped..
“Snowman?”
Thump thump thump!
“I heard you were here….”
It's good…
The door slid open..
Chameli stuck his head out and looked inside..
Ssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssd…
“…uh?”
Inside the building, Snowfall was holding a armored suit with a strange light coming out of it and looking at it..
The mountain's fist reflected in the pupil of the snowfall gave off a reddish aura..

‘…succeded.’
5The finished result after pouring all of the dog's biological metal into it..
In this way, the mountain's weak attack power, which was its low attack power, was successfully compensated for..
Snowfall put a mountain fist on Jamard's hand..
Jamard twitched his hand a few times while wearing armor with a red glow..
- Will you marry me?
- It's not a proposal, don't put weird subtitles on lol
- I like it.
- ???
“Good, I can feel the power surging. If this is it….”
“Yeah, it might be worth a try if we get back together. … hmm?”
It was only after finishing work that Kangseol looked back at Chameli. Chameli said after seeing the snowfall.
“Sister Philia, who left first, sent me news..”
“is this good news?”
“Even so… You can also say no.”
“Tell me.”
“It is said that the Black Knight did not go very far. He said that even if we start now, we will be able to catch up quickly if we increase our speed..”
“If you tell me the good news first, I feel anxious about what follows.….”
She answered with a somber face..
“The direction in which the black knight moves... They say it's Ilya's side..”
“…Damn it.”
“yet… It's not too late. They say the Black Knight is moving slowly, so if you hurry now, you can catch up with him before he enters Ilia.!”
“…Did you tell Count Brispin of Ilia??”
“Some pilgrims who went with Sister Philia headed to Ilia first. The news has probably reached you. but….”
“There's a high probability that the Count will ignore the warning..”
“yes.”
Whirling-!
Snowfall returned Jamard to the shadows and left the blacksmith shop. And then he looked back at Chameli with a surprised expression..
“These words….”
“There was a horse market nearby that had a large paddock. Despite the heavy rain, pilgrims paid extra money to buy horses from him. Oh, you know how to ride a horse….”
Hwiik-!
Snowfall lightly climbed onto the horse and skillfully grabbed the reins..
“Yes….”
“Buying all these horses... I can feel the power of the parish..”
“still… I couldn't subdue the black knight..”
Snowfall looked down the mountain and said.
“It will be different this time.”
* * *
The thing called leisure.
Years of forgetting that such a thing even existed.
The Black Knight never looked back on the path he had taken. Because there was no reason or time to do so..
I just silently broke down the fragments and absorbed them..
Even when he collided with debris stronger than himself, he used every means possible to defeat his opponent..
The predator of grief and hope also acquired the weapons that way..
【Let's kill! More life! want! More blood! there is! stay close!】
“stop… Please stop.”
【You promised! hungry!】
The Black Knight was suffering from such grief that he wanted to cover his ears. Grief destroyed his spirit..
No, it wasn't just heartbreak..
After a long fight, his mind was already not normal even before he met grief..
Now I look back.
the path he took.
The bloody path of a demon driven by revenge and hatred.
- you… This is not the Karuna I know. Karuna is kind and warm. you… you are a monster.
Now, what is tormenting him more than the insidious whispers of grief are the words of Karen, who he thought would never be alive..
Those words became a dagger and stabbed into his heart..
The reason he looked back on the path he had taken was not because he finally had some free time..
regret.
Like a white paper on which several paints have already spilled, it is stained and you can't draw anything on it..
Everything is mixed together and the paper becomes completely black.
That was the black knight.
“For what… I am… I'm not fake….”
【You are fake! FALSE! Hahahaha!】
“shut up!”
【You are wrong! Give me blood! Blood! Hehehe.】
Sometimes, a crazy sword couldn't comfort my heart. In that case, he should have at least shut up the sword's mouth..
Sigh…
The majestic appearance of Ilya, covered in a night blanket, caught my eye. He intended to collect blood here..
Normally I wouldn't have done such a dangerous thing..
But it's good now.
“Soon, I will feed you so much blood that your stomach will explode. therefore….”
Piyuuuuung-!
At that time, a sound was heard from somewhere..
Grumble-!
Grief pulled itself out and struck down the arrow that came from behind..
brrrr…
The trembling of the sword did not seem to be an ordinary arrow..
【I stopped it! I blocked it!】
Someone walked beyond the veil of night.
“also… It's you again.”
The thing reflected on the moon was snowfall.
“I guess I need to go somewhere in a hurry?”
“You won't have to go far, I'll kill you and get Karen back..”
“and?”
“…….”
“Putting you in a fight that will never end?”
“…I'll make you shut up.”
“It'll be hard this time?”
Whoa whoa…
[The Black Knight enters the first stage of Moonlight Chungcheon (月光衝天), the current moon..]
Piuuuut-!
[The Black Knight's Lament uses a shooting star..]
[The Black Knight's Lament passes through a certain path..]
[Grief deals 170% weapon damage to all enemies in its path..]
[Enemies hit by Grief receive the Unholy Wounds effect..]
【I'll kill you! I'll kill you!】
Snowfall, staring straight at the heartbreak flying in.
Huh…
And he twisted his waist and punched from the bottom up..
Taaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa-!
【Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!】
The grief flew out with a loud scream..
Taking advantage of that gap, the snowfall quickly reached the front of the Black Knight..
Swish-! Swish-!
Even though he was a black knight without grief, the power he possessed was not ordinary..
Wow!-!
The black knight hits Kang Seol accurately in the face..
Even as Kang Seol turned his head, he thrust his opposite fist loudly. The target is the Black Knight's abdomen..
“use….”
Quaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa-!
“Wow….”
The Black Knight's new form slightly surfaced after being hit by Kang Seol's fist..
[Sensitivity is triggered..]
[Hope Predator Devours Shock.]
[Hopeful Predator's stomach is slightly full..]
[Hopeful predator digests some of the shock.]
“nonsense….”
- The theory of grit actually existed!
- no! In the end, capital won!
- I don't know! Once it got stronger!
- Since I got strengthened, I suddenly get a lightning-level deal lol.
- Janet! It's nice to lean on the snowman's shoulder! Janet! It's nice to lean on the snowman's shoulder!
- This is the taste of capitalism!
After exchanging attacks and falling down once, he got up again..
Whirling-!
Black energy flowed from his hands and summoned the twin knights. The two knights pointed their swords at the black knight with serious expressions..
Cheolgruguk.
Twin knights with tremendous fighting spirit unlike before.
Kang Seol smiled, showing his teeth..
“I told you it would be hard this time.”
