31The second word overturns the game board (Episode 320)
7 months after the Yasha War broke out.
Most of the ghosts that came through the hole in the compartment returned to their original ghost world or were exterminated by the central army..
How the ground hardens after rain.
The people of the empire who witnessed the Battle of Yasha first-hand remembered the several dragons who fought without sparing their lives in the Battle of Yasha..
Naturally, Taeyul, Shinyo, and Seolhong were included here..
Although there were likes and dislikes about Taeyul's rational attitude during the Yasha War, there was no one who denied that it was because of him that the Yasha War ended without further damage..
Shinyo played an active part in the Yacha War with Jangdu. However, perhaps because of her behavior that did not feel her warmth, her people defined her as unapproachable..
And, Seolhong.
“Seolhong! Please take a look here!”
“Ah, it smells good..”
“yes Bread has arrived! Here you go!”
Imperial citizen hastily handing over bread wrapped in paper.
Seolhong accepted it with a smile..
One of her guards stopped her..
“Mr. Seolhong, the food may be….”
yes…
While speaking, Seolhong was already biting into a piece of bread..
“Seo, Seolhong!”
“Okay.”
People surrounded her wherever she passed..
What's unique is that their clothes are very different..
Some people were wearing golden silk with lots of decorations, while others were wearing clothes that were worn out and the gap between the layers had widened..
Both the poor and the rich loved her..
I loved not only her accomplishments, but also the story behind the path she took to get there..
From underground to clouds.
Seolhong’s story was fascinating..
I don't know what the internal evaluation of the Dragon Palace was like, but the people of the empire's love for Seolhong gradually grew..
multifaceted…
multifaceted…
The horse that Seolhong rode entered the palace..
She immediately got off the horse and handed the reins to her servant..
“Please.”
“yes….”
A minister who disappears with a horse.
Eventually, only Chi-woo and Seol-hong remained..
“snow red.”
“…….”
“snow red?”
“…Ah, I was distracted for a moment..”
Seolhong was taller than before..
Although it was nothing compared to the oil painting she did when she was alive, she was gradually starting to resemble her..
The body showed growth like this..
I am growing up this much, so I can understand the progress in detail..
But my heart wasn't like that.
Rather than growing, my mind was shrinking..
“The news is?”
“…Not yet.”
“…Okay, I guess I'll have to wait a little longer..”
Chiwoo frowned..
It's already been 7 months.
It's time for the seasons to pass, the seasons to pass, the seasons to pass..
The snowfall is gone, somewhere I can't find it.
“Stop it... Wouldn't it be nice??”
“What are you talking about?”
“Snowfall….”
He said while eating the sound of cleaning up..
“It wouldn't be surprising if he died….”
Jinryeo yawned and came over to sit next to Seolhong. she said, leaning her body against her window.
“Seolhong, do you see those dark clouds??”
“dark clouds?”
“Yes, dark clouds. It seems like it rains too often these days. Just like a big snake trying to become a dragon.”
“…I know.”
Jinryeo looked at the dark clouds reflected in the window and continued talking..
“I am from the north. I didn’t know much about the culture or the people here. Whenever Taeyul had free time, he talked about various things as if he were talking to a child. Looking at those dark clouds reminds me of the legend I told back then..”
“Legend? some legend?”
“There is a legend that Dragon Emperor Hongcheon was originally a salmon, but he could not stand Hwageumu's evil behavior and went up the river and became a dragon himself. It's funny, right? How can a salmon, not a snake, become a dragon?.”
“Because Khan considers salmon sacred. So salmon often appears in legends... I didn't know there was such a legend..”
“perhaps… Maybe….”
Jinryeo looked at Seolhong and said this.
“Isn’t Kang Seol a salmon??”
“salmon?”
“yes The Dragon of Socheon mentioned salmon. Salmon comes back! The one who will return... Maybe it's him?”
Seolhong continued thinking for a moment and then smiled..
“I hope what you say is true.”
* * *
At that time, Snowfall was chasing the beings who took Ishii and Yeba..
[Jamad uses Ancient Glacier Sorcery: Yeti's Guidance.]
[Can only be used on snowy terrain.]
[Accurately traces traces of beings that have stepped on snow.]
“passed this way.”
- this footprint…
“Definitely not human….”
Initially, the direction was set towards Hygeltongue..
The residents of Hygeltongue are broadly divided into two categories..
Eamon the Ice Mole, and the Fallen Glacialmaw Troll.
In this case…
“It's like a glacier..”
- Because emons wander underground.
“Why? If it had been a conflict, Isi and Yeva would have been killed right away, so why did they take the humans??”
It was impossible to know without meeting them in person..
Since Kang Seol was playing the role of a babysitter who wasn't even there, Kang Seol couldn't help but laugh..
‘But sometimes it's good like this.’
Dongbang couldn't let go of the tension because so many serious things happened one after another. Maybe it was because the snowfall appeared just in time for Khan's crisis..
Even though Kang Seol missed that tension, she enjoyed a moment of freedom..
In fact, the snowfall that chased the glacier maw all the way to Hygeltongue, humming along, was strange..
“for a moment….”
Snowfall followed the glacier spell and frowned..
“It's not in the direction of the snowy mountain.?”
Clearly, the Glacier Maw were beings that ruled in the polar regions, using the snowy mountains of Hygeltongue as their base. Even if their power fell to the ground, this wouldn't have changed.….
“…No way, Emon?”
- Has the fortress been taken over by a mole??
Jamard also laughed..
It may have been an illusion on the part of Snow and Jamard, but if it was not an illusion and the Glacier Maw had really lost the Snowy Mountain Fortress to Emon, that alone could have guessed the situation of the war..
Of course, even if that were the case, it did not have a very smooth connection with the current situation..
They unexpectedly attacked the federal security guard and kidnapped the relevant personnel. for what reason?
Snowfall twitched her eyebrows and looked in the direction they had disappeared into..
“Look at this?”
- snowfall.
Snow picks up speed and begins its chase deep into the Hugeltongue..
[I took a potion of hot breath..]
[Cold resistance is greatly increased..]
[Body temperature does not drop easily.]
“…huh?”
- Are you planning to intervene? In the fight between Emon and the Glacial Maw.
Snow scratched his chin.
“well….”
- The fight between Emon and the Glacial Maw is old. Now that the war has solidified... It won't be easy to turn it over.
“…Let's watch for now. Because there is no reason to intervene yet..”
- Okay, let's focus on the chase for now..
The chase didn't last that long..
If the glacier maws were headed to the snowy mountains, they should have headed to the pole of the poles, but they stopped in a completely unexpected place..
“…Got it.”
Finally, the trail of the glacier maw stopped..
The snowfall quickly followed them into the poorly constructed fortress..
* * *
“It's because of you.”
“No, it's because of you.”
Ishii and Yeba were imprisoned in a place blocked by cold iron bars..
Still, the glacier angler seemed to have no human head at all, so I gave it a blanket to cover it..
“eww… cold… Hygeltongue… cold….”
“What if supplies arrive while we are away??”
Ishii growled in response to Yeba’s question..
“Do you want to talk bullshit? Is supply a problem now? They say trolls eat people.!”
“…really? I don't even have much weight!”
“Is that really true??”
“Do you really need to ask? So you don't have a girlfriend.”
“Yeva….”
Ishii looked intently at Yeba..
The beard looked particularly greasy today. Yeva looked reluctant and asked.
“why… why!”
“actually… There was something I wanted to say all along.”
“hey! What should I do if I say this in a place like this?….”
“…Should I not do it??”
“I want you to talk about it! Jun, I'm ready..”
“Your cigarettes were missing from the last supply. I took care of it.”
“Between us... what? 이런, 개새끼가!”
“Still, I shared it out of conscience..”
“You crazy bastard, you showed off with my cigarette! I am… Without even knowing that, I thought you were a loyal guy.….”
Yeva cursed Ishii.
“Get eaten by a troll, you damn bastard..”
“If I get eaten, you get eaten too..”
“…I guess so? Then cancel.”
ha…
Their sighs became like breath and lingered around the fortress..
Ishii asked.
“Why did you bring us here??”
“That's right, it's true that you brought him in steadily without killing him... I don't understand.”
“What did the feds say to do in a situation like this??”
“Survive on your own! I wouldn't have said that?”
“Tsk tsk… It's federal. … trash bastards.”
Yeva thought deeply and said:.
“Did he run away well??”
“who? Ah, Korean….”
“Snowfall, yeah.”
“I don't know, I would have run away or frozen to death..”
“What do you think about hoping that they will save us or something??”
“Judging from a Japanese perspective, I think it's a very trashy idea..”
“After all, it is universal. Russia just thought the same thing..”
“…….”
“…….”
Yeva was restrained and leaning against the wall, muttering..
“They say Koreans have a lot of affection.….”
“It's worth trying kimchi, though it's not for me..”
“Wouldn't you be able to see someone in trouble??”
“The safety rate is also high..”
“You idiot, what does this have to do with the security rate?.”
“If someone comes in here saying they have a lot of affection, is that a person? Anyway, I think about it.….”
Wow!-!
A Glacialmaw troll approached and shouted..
“Ah, okay! I'll be quiet….”
“uh? Huh? These bastards open the door?”
“no! I don't want to die! I'm not going! I don't want to go!”
They were captured and led somewhere by the Glaciermaw Troll..
Ugh.…
Wow! Kak!
“What do you mean... Shit….”
“My breath smells really bad too. Ishii, I think it's worse than you..”
“Hey, comparing in the first place was wrong. Hurry up and fart so I can bring down the fortress..”
“This bastard… That's not me.”
“If it's not me, there's only you….”
Wow! Kaaaaaak!
“Sorry, I'll be quiet. yes?”
“Do you understand?….”
“shut up!”
Kuguuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu…
I profit…
Yeba and Ishii were thrown into a space with a bloody atmosphere..
In front, there was a troll sitting on a huge chair and a shaman who appeared to be his minion..
“Damn… As expected, there was a reason why I brought you here..”
“Is it offered??”
Crumbling…
Wow!!
The troll said something and the shaman stepped forward..
Huuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu…
The shaman holding the crystal ball muttered and placed his hands on Ishii and Yeba's heads..
“Argh! I don't want to die!”
“don't!”
Shhh…
said the troll shaman.
“Be solemn, human being..”
“uh? This human language….”
“It's an interpretation spell! You're trying to listen to us! … why?”
Ishii and Yeba's faces were distorted..
the troll sitting on the chair asked.
“Human, I have a few questions for you..”
“Oh, as much as you want! If you answer well, they'll save your life.?”
The troll's question was different from what Ishii and Yeva expected..
“If emons overflow from Hygeltongue, how will humans respond??”
“what? That's right….”
Yeba and Ishii steadily answer.
But the more I answered, the more I realized I couldn't come up with a positive answer..
“…I'm about to leave Hygeltongue.?”
“There is nothing to know. next….”
As expected, the same goes for the continued questions..
The shaman said to the troll asking the question:.
“I guess… It seems that not all troops will be able to escape Hygeltongue, avoiding Emon's guard..”
“It's over.….”
“I will stay.”
“…You?”
“yes. To buy time, Burtul must at least leave Hygeltongue as soon as possible. For the next era of the glacier maw that will come someday….”
A troll named Burtul laughed..
“This is the next era of Glacial Maw... That's good to hear. However, that won't happen.”
“Mr. Brutul!”
“If I run away like this, where will I go? The glacier maw fights. If you fight, it's with all your might..”
Sigh…
Burtul stood up and said:.
“If you decide to fight, don't turn your back! This is all I learned from my father.”
“…Let's come up with a plan..”
“okay… That's how it should be….”
Burtul looked at Yeva and Ishii for a moment and then closed his eyes..
“I don't have the energy for the coming fight. kill it.”
“what? Now, wait a minute.….”
“no… I don't want to die….”
The shaman nodded..
Whioooooooo…
Glacier magic hovered in the shaman's hand..
“It won't be painful, humans..”
“No way!”
Hehehehe…
Ssssssssssssssssssssssss-!
Like a cold wind blowing, the crystallized wind flew towards Yeba..
grasp-!
Ishii jumped like a fish and blocked Yeba's path..
“Ishii!”
“……huh?”
Ishii, who had been waiting for death with his eyes closed, opened his eyes slightly. No matter how long she waited, the pain did not come..
Whioooooooo…
A black figure hovered before Yeba and Ishii's eyes. And in the hand of that black figure was held the glacier spell that the shaman had just cast..
“To be impatient….”
“What! guard!”
Ishii and Yeba recognized who the dark being was just by the voice..
It was snowing.
“Well, I said Koreans are very affectionate.?”
“Ugh… snowfall… Please save us….”
Snowfall looked at Yeba and Ishii, who were covered in tears and snot, for a moment, then turned her gaze to Burtul and said..
“…What are you??”
“inhabitants of the world.”
“what?”
“Let's talk.”
“be not interested in.”
smiling snowfall.
“well… You must be interested?”
