31The second word overturns the game board (Episode 292)
Kwazijijijijik!
The black spear filled with lightning passed straight through the floor without being blocked by the giant soldier's sixtieth armor..
“oh my god….”
“damage!”
Pajjyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy!
The enormous energy emitted from the black spear literally destroyed the giant soldier. And that also dealt a serious blow to the neighborhood..
The 4th floor is so empty that it looks like it is open..
Slurp…
And the hole was filled in an instant..
“What is this... What did you bring up?….”
Everyone except Kang Seol looked at Jin Ryeo..
“that is… The dragon lord's favorite disease, widely known as a legend in the North.….”
“Ouch! I can't believe this crazy guy has been by my side all this time.!”
“If you had accidentally summoned a dragonlord, everyone would have died..”
“So I checked with Kunna.….”
“Who is that Kunna??”
“It's Jin!”
Jaune and Santio's expressions softened a little when they heard that Jin had confirmed it..
“Hmm… I see. Jin confirmed it, it would have been crazy if he wasn't crazy..”
Jinryeo said with shining eyes..
“But where did the black window go? Even if it's fake, I want to see it in real life.….”
“It's gone. It is said that the more serious the problem is, the faster it will be dealt with.….”
“I wanted to see it in real life….”
“Don't even talk. I almost lost my liver. Oh, of course I'm not saying I don't actually want to see that window..”
“Hey… It really makes my heart flutter.?”
“Right, right… . No, not this. Anyway, it's a shame that things are going well! If she were my granddaughter, she wouldn't have lost any of her calves by now.!”
The maintenance of the dragonlord that must be regained someday..
His black spear was such an incredible object that it was passed down to the public..
‘Could I swing it??’
no.
The moment the spear was summoned, it was immediately apparent that it was impossible..
‘Because there are restrictions in many ways..’
There were various restrictions on the black window..
Therefore, just because it appeared in front of me right away, I couldn't wield it easily..
While Kang Seol was lost in thought, Jo Ne and Jin Ryeo were talking..
“But how do you know that book so well??”
“He's a very famous person, right? The dragonlord?”
“Hmmm….”
“How can you not be interested when you are the only one who has taken something from the dragon? Isn't it? He is already revered like a god in the North.….”
“You have a point. I forgot for a moment that the Wing Mountains were to the north. So you were born and raised in the North? Considering that he even signed a contract with Jin,.”
nod…
Jinryeo nodded..
“Anyway, we couldn't get anything while this giant soldier was blocking it, so let's search for something..”
Everyone agreed with Santio's words and rushed around to find the book they wanted..
After some time, the remains of the giant scattered like dust and disappeared..
Kang Seol thought about the future and searched the books on the list..
Sigh…
tome.
Sigh…
Another volume.
‘hmm?’
Surprisingly, the search accelerated..
‘I thought it would be hard to get even one copy….’
5Got all books present in the list from less than 1 floor.
“What! I found everything!”
It seems that due to luck, even Jinryeo achieved results. They decided to finish the search early and wait for John and Santio..
But suddenly, a question came to Kang Seol’s mind..
‘Come to think of it, why on earth did they come to Mansang Library??’
Santio seemed to avoid answering, so he approached Jaune..
“Johnne.”
“hmm… No, no. After all, isn’t there one on the lower floor? But what are the traces of this unknown transference magic? Seeing that the technique was sloppy, what I created was….”
“Johnne.”
“Oh, tell me. Stop because I'm distracted….”
“Why did you visit Mansang Library??”
“…That's what I was curious about..”
“yes.”
Jaune scratched his sideburns and answered..
“actually… I came here because my achievements were blocked by a wall..”
“…yes?”
Jaune is a great wizard in name and reality..
Frannan, who was a magician of the castle level, also looked great, but the magic tower lord who was given a higher status than him was Jone..
Of course, it is difficult to use it as a standard since Frannan has shown very unusual power among magicians of the Aspect and is now a magic tower lord..
Anyway, Jaune and Santio, who are in a position that would be enviable for a wizard, found the Library of All Things blocked by a wall..
- Oh hohoho… The old people are still alive and well..
This was a voice I hadn't heard in quite a while..
‘…Borneuil?’
- Hehehe… Long time no see. Have you been at peace so far??
Former Libra Bornuil, responsible for part of the spirit of Ur.
In the past, he was mentally controlled by Ur in Alkatron, and after losing his life to Frannan, he was sharing Ur's body..
To be precise, it could be seen as a suppressor that prevents Ur from being foolish..
Perhaps because he intended to sleep in Ur's body, which he had put off during his lifetime, he did not wake up unless something serious happened..
Perhaps the unusual energy of the Mansang Library woke him up..
- Looks like you had a long sleep. Because Ur was so busy, I had nothing to do... . By the way, it’s a library of all things… Oh hoho, they were wizards so they couldn't pass by this place..
While Bornuil was talking, Jaune and Santio explained the situation they were in..
“After several years of no progress, with only a slight increase in magical power, I received information that the Mansang Library had appeared. As you know, aren’t wizards honest about their desires? I left the work to my lieutenants and headed straight here..”
“Although the expression may be harsh, what Jaune said is true..”
“So do you two have separate books you want??”
“that….”
Jaune and Santio looked at each other and avoided answering..
- I guess I came here to get Azran's writings. He is the only wizard with similar qualities to them who has reached the top..
‘Are the things you want similar??’
…I had no intention of giving in..
“I have no intention of telling you that far..”
“Even old people have secrets..”
Snowfall nodded..
“All right. then….”
“Okay, let's go up..”
As I was about to go up, Snowfall paused for a moment and looked back at John..
“Johnne.”
“Uh, huh? why but?”
Kang Seol asked John to do something..
Jaune nodded..
“Hmm… That makes sense. There is no harm in being careful. Then wait a moment.”
After a while, Johnne, who had finished what Kang Seol had asked, came closer..
“It's over. Then go.”
“yes.”
* * *
That… Jeopuk…
Tsuzzzzzzzz…
5floor.
The sign had the word lounge written all over it..
It was round on all sides, as if drawing a perfect circle, and the bookshelf was empty..
The snowfall was a little unsettling.
‘What if no one arrived??’
2Since they were separated from the independent space on the floor, it was unclear whether or not I would be able to encounter them until I reached the lounge..
Considering that the elderly people who own the tower were held in the lower floors for months, these concerns were not simply unfounded..
As Kang Seol approached the center of the lounge with this anxiety, a welcome voice was heard from in front of him..
“come! snowfall! Why are you here now?!”
“Chiwoo?”
“I was waiting. I was worried it might take a little longer... Good thing.”
Chiu and Seolhong were the first to welcome Kang Seol..
“me too! I have one too!”
“Ah, it's true.….”
“Chiu! That's kinda bad! Don't blurt out your words!”
The man sitting in front of Chiwoo and Seolhong.
“You came.”
“Xiamen. When did you arrive??”
“We also arrived a little early..”
“That's good.”
“however… The two elderly people in the back?”
Johnet and Santio walking behind the snowfall.
“Who is it??”
When Jinryeo asked in a playful way, Seolhong and Chiwoo thought for a moment, were surprised, and then asked..
“Maybe the magic tower….”
“Click… Still, Is this guy recognizable wherever he goes because of his appearance??”
“It's not easy, John..”
“how….”
Seolhong, who encapsulates in that single word the question of whether John and Santio, the owners of the Magic Tower, are in the library of all things..
Jaune and Santio relayed the same anecdote they had told Kang Seol earlier..
“I see... Have you achieved any results??”
“If that were the case, I would have gone right back. I wouldn't have even thought about coming here. But you guys….”
Jaune's eyes became sharp..
“I think I understand since they are all gathered together like this. I'm not feeling well.”
“okay. Libra's disciple, I saw it before, so even so, the others….”
As they say, the energy felt from Chiu and Seolhong will be extraordinary..
Even snowfall was sometimes surprising..
‘It's the same in Xiamen.’
The atmosphere was completely different from when we continued our meeting in Nobira, Xiamen Island. Rather than a feeling of being related to force, it was a feeling of the presence itself emanating from the person..
It was natural for Jaune and Santio to have doubts..
When they asked about this, Seolhong and Chiu kindly explained..
“Ohh! That's right! They were descendants of the Dragon Emperor, right?.”
“I thought it was unusual. But what's going on here??”
When I told him about the situation currently taking place in the great empire of Khan, Jaune muttered with a serious expression..
“Hmm… Something like that happened while I was away.….”
“It's definitely a threatening situation..”
This is the end of our conversation about each other..
Next was a check on how close we were to the goal we came here for..
“this….”
“You found everything, right? I found everything?”
Surprisingly, he found all the books he wanted before reaching the 5th floor..
“If this happens….”
“Can I go back??”
Xiamen nodded..
“Then, there is no reason for us to climb all the mountains anymore. Let's go back now….”
“…Xiamen.”
Kang Seol looked at the group and said.
“I'll go up a little higher.”
“huh? More here?”
Chiwoo blinked and asked back..
Xiamen's eyes narrowed..
“…I see you want something..”
“That's right. There's still something left to check.”
“Hmm… Well, I guess we might as well split up here. Anyway, in order to wake up a fallen demon, you need to make appropriate preparations. I'll go back first and get ready..”
“thank you.”
“Others…?”
Jinryeo spoke first.
“Ah, I don't mind going back. I got an amazing book….”
Jinryeo also met the old gentleman of Mansang and had a harvest, so he would like to quickly go back and dig it up..
Seolhong and Chiwoo thought for a moment and answered:.
“we're going back.”
“I'll go back and wait for you.”
Actually, I felt relieved that way..
If they could fight together, they were of course reliable, but if they fell apart due to the independent space, the upper floors could be dangerous..
Seolhong came over and held Kangseol’s hand..
“snowfall.”
“Sorry for making you wait.”
Seolhong shook his head..
“If it's important to you, you can wait as long as you want. If you just promise to come back to me.”
When Seolhong asked that with a stern expression, Kangseol answered with a faint smile..
“…I'll finish it soon and go back.”
Grinning…
“Then it was done. will wait.”
The group receives books from Kangseol and exits through a separate exit in the lounge of Mansang Library..
Suddenly, only Snowfall and the old man remained..
- Suddenly, the picture I hate the most appeared..
- It was bright! You were bright until just now!
- The atmosphere is rotting..
Elderly people in a snowy and gloomy mood sat down to rest at a table where another group of people had just sat down..
While Snowfall was quietly closing her eyes and thinking about the future, she heard Ur's voice..
- But what on earth is Azran's book or something like that, so those old people are after it??
The answer was not Kangseol, but Borneuil..
- Azran is a wizard left in history who brought together those evil wizards. In fact, his magical capabilities were evaluated as superior to that of any other wizard in history, and many….
- Wow, the greatest wizard in history. I dare to have this body….
- Ur, didn't you say you were a mage? Oh hoho!
- …Right. In that case, I can easily give up the label of a lowly wizard. But, it looks like there's something he left behind in the Mansang Library.?
Bornuil calmly explained to Ur. Surprisingly, it was amazing to see the two having a conversation..
- There were always rumors that the great wizard visited the Universal Library before disappearing from the world. Because of that, there were countless people who attempted the Mansang Library without knowing that their lives were a waste of money..
- joy… At most, I would have made a fuss over something that wasn't a big deal..
Ur still had no idea what kind of person the Prince of Frost was. Therefore, Kang Seol thought it would be a good idea to decide on an appropriate comparison object, so she told him.
‘Ur, Azran wasn't pushed aside by the immortal who created nothingness..’
- what? Is that really true??
‘huh. Especially when it comes to magic, it was unparalleled..’
It felt a little strange to praise myself with my own mouth..
- Hmm… That's fun. I'm also curious about what he left behind. He already thought he didn't have enough strength to take the next step, but it turned out well..
‘…huh?’
- Bring what he left behind to this body. Prove that this body is greater than Azran.
‘Ah, yes….’
Kangseol also immediately came to his senses after hearing Ur’s words..
Ur is the first mage and, although not confirmed, is a being of great power in the past. What would happen if the legacy of the greatest wizard, the Prince of Frost, was passed on to such a person??
‘What a delusion... I'm not even sure if it exists.’
While Kang Seol was spending time thinking about such things, Santio spoke to her..
“Before we move forward, I'd better give you some warning..”
“kyung… go?”
“Before entering the Mansang Library, I looked at the recent records with Johnet..”
“Oh, that's what you're talking about! Yes, that's right. Santio and I had a strange feeling about the record..”
Snowfall tilting its head.
Santio talked about suspicious records..
“Those who challenge the Mansang Library are not common, but they are not rare either. In particular, those who take on challenges with purpose have achieved quite remarkable results. Until recently... I had to see it that way..”
“How long ago? what is that….”
“There isn't a single one.”
“yes?”
“Not the ones who came back from the break room, but the ones who went forward. Not a single one of them came back alive. Still, in the past, there were rare people who said they had been to at least the 6th floor, which is strange.?”
Santio said with his hands clasped in front of him..
“I'm saying there might be a problem upstairs..”
Grumbling…
Snowfall suddenly stood up and said.
“I really don't want to be afraid, but... Aren't you going??”
“…Tsk tsk, youth is good..”
“For your information, Jaune was very scared. Even if he disrespects Rob, as an alumnus, I can pretend not to notice.….”
“no!”
“Are you fearless??”
“no! I won't be rude! I'm scared though!”
snowfall asked.
“Is there a reason you go forward even though you are scared??”
“That's because it's scarier to stop! You will find out when you grow up. It's a broken clock and the second hand doesn't move forward... How terrible it is. Let's go!”
Jaune, Santio, and Snowfall headed to the next floor..
* * *
6floor.
No, when they reached what was supposed to be the 6th floor, they looked around for a moment in confusion..
“What the hell is this….”
“Everything is broken. And what about this terrible energy?….”
The sign is probably already lying around somewhere..
“ah… this.”
“jornet?”
“Now I understand.”
“yes?”
“4Traces of crude transfer magic we found on the floor..”
I'm sure Johnne said something like that on the 4th floor..
- But what are the traces of this unknown transference magic? Seeing that the technique was sloppy, what I created was….
“That's it now….”
“It matters a lot. It looks like someone tried to change the 4th floor usage rules we experienced with the 6th floor rules..”
“…Why??”
“Probably to get what you want. To revive someone or obtain treasure. stupid bastard!”
“What is the result??”
“Looks like we're only half-successful. There remains a trend that the 6th floor usage rules have been changed to the 4th floor usage rules. The impact reached the 7th floor and it completely collapsed. The 6th and 7th floors were combined.”
In other words, Kangseol and his party are now on the 6th or 7th floor, not the 6th floor..
They walked a little further and saw what Johnette meant when he said he was only half-successful..
“That's it….”
“oh my god….”
A large demonic beast was blocking the way, sleeping..
“Perhaps the rules of use were not applied properly. I guess it wasn't the purpose of summoning that horrible demon beast in the first place. Never, should we open the book. This time, the entire space might collapse..”
Santio also frowned..
“Judging by the blood stains seen everywhere... It seems that those demon beasts have eaten all those who reached the 6th floor. There must be a reason why there was no news from the 6th floor. Will he disappear??”
“It's better not to have high expectations. It's all messed up because of crude magic, so it wouldn't be surprising if he lived for a thousand years..”
Jaune lamented..
“…Well, even though he looks like he's an unusual guy, there's some way... huh? Look?”
“…….”
“why but?”
Snowfall carefully headed towards the side of the demon beast..
Since I was lying face down, my head was in the direction.
“Hey, look….”
“What are you trying to do?….”
Kang Seol, who was quietly observing the sleeping demon beast, asked with a grin..
‘I think it's right?’
- This is amazing..
Ur's answer to Kangseol's question.
- I never thought I would come across not one, but two..
black and ugly.
From its majestic fur to its fangs that make you tremble just by its presence..
The demon beast resembled someone.
‘Jamard, you can do it.?’
- It's not difficult. There's already a precedent..
Jaune and Santio look at Snowfall with worried eyes as she continues to smile..
“excuse me….”
“stay away.”
“Well, what are you trying to do?!”
“Shhh….”
When the snow falls like this, the two retreat far away.
grip support…
Snowfall, which turned into a raven, clapped its hands..
Wow!-!
Crrrrr…
Masoo wakes up to the sound of applause.
He wakes up shakily, as if he is still half asleep..
Kang Seol looked at the demon beast and said.
“Come out, Coco.”
[Summon Phantom Beast: Shadow Wolf activates.]
[Continuous: Surprise Appearance activates.]
[Happy Coco affects Jamard's abilities.]
“Do you recognize this face??”
Wow!-!
As soon as Coco was summoned, she started wagging her tail and barking. Looking at the shadow wolf that looks exactly like you.
6The wolf standing between the 7th and 7th floors was a shadow wolf just like Coco..
“If you know the face, please speak kindly to me..”
