31The second word overturns the game board (Episode 379)
The source of the roar was that one of the guys was swinging a mace that was not suitable for a guesthouse..
Sreuk…
However, Yurim's efforts unfortunately went sideways and he easily avoided the attack..
‘First practice... Should I say?’
I could already feel the difference in power from the opponent's momentum..
We have an overwhelming advantage.
then… You may need to use some drastic measures..
sreung-!
Shhh-!
Weapons pulled out.
He quickly grabbed Yurim’s shoulder and brought her into the room..
“What-!”
Yurim was able to react well, but she pretended to be embarrassed for no reason..
Kwaang-!
I pulled the door and closed it hard..
“this person! This bastard!”
A mace that hits the door straight down.
Kwasik…
Naturally, the wooden door was torn apart by the attack..
However, countless things can happen even in that brief moment when the door is closed..
Wow!-!
When we hit our palms together, darkness rose up..
Wow!…
“Uh oh….”
No, to be exact, it was a bunch of shadow hands..
[Use black flowers.]
[The Shadow Hand strikes again. The damage per attack is the same as the Shadow Hand, and when hitting the same target, 20% additional damage is applied for each consecutive attack..]
Doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo-!
Guys who quickly evade.
It's a futile effort.
Whirling-!
Wow!-!
“What!”
“Wow!-!”
Whoa whoa!
“Ahhhhh-!”
Because the shadow can be bent as much as you want.
The black flower chased them down and knocked them down..
Guys lying down with their arms grotesquely bent, as if their bones were broken..
Compassion is a luxury.
“Seol-ah, stop..”
“okay.”
Yurim stopped me.
There was no need to exert effort against an opponent with an overwhelming gap..
It has already been said that according to the internal evaluation of the tent, our strength is not inferior to that of the executives of the Faces..
The problem is the variable in practice.
“this… Motherfuckers….”
The owner of the room whose wrists were tied by the shadow cast by Yurim. We needed his information..
“Let's be clear, we didn't touch it first. That one goes first.”
“……Are you here because of Rihanna??”
“Yeah, you know?”
“You know, I watched him for a while to see how many times he moved his spoon around while eating and how many times he did his errands a day..”
“I followed him.”
“That was the request.”
“request….”
They were members of a not-so-great intelligence organization. Just because the powerlessness of those who had just experienced it was not significant, it did not mean that their ability to gather information was impaired..
“First of all, can you do something about those guys? I'm moaning so much.”
“ah.”
I'm blinking often these days..
‘Is it the effect of headache?.’
Yurim stepped in and organized them instead. The only thing I can do to clean it up is to put it in an empty room and inform the owner..
Now that the door was gone, I opened the door to an empty room instead of this one and went in to interrogate the person I had captured..
“It's not true that we found out later that Rian was the Jang. By the time he realized he was a bastard, it was too late to let go..”
“It's late?”
“I had already delivered the information to the client..”
“Hmm….”
“Trust me, it's true! If I had known in advance that it was related to the tabernacle, I wouldn't have taken on this job.!”
Jangmag had a reputation among outsiders as being extremely vicious..
Perhaps it was someone trying to tarnish our existence, but Bitan dismissed the ploy like this:.
- It's easier to move! let's leave it alone!
I'm definitely starting to feel it..
Just by looking at the shape of my mouth, I can't believe I'm going to say anything.….
A strange feeling of pleasure arose..
Then, I had to ask the most important question..
“The client?”
“…They were sisters wearing masks.”
“sisters… Sisters….”
mask.
sisters.
“It was the same mask?”
“…that's right.”
surprised face.
It's them.
The faces seem to be targeting Rian, an external member of the veil..
‘It's not disappearance, it's kidnapping. or… Or kill.’
Yurim's expression darkened as she listened to the story. However, the way she tried not to show it seemed even more pathetic..
From what I heard before coming here, she said she often hung out with Lian when she was young. So she is distressed when she hears the news..
But it was painful for me to watch her too..
Yurim is a little bird to me.
Anything she did made me feel sad and saddened. I don't know why.
“What we received as advance payment is half of the promised amount. Since I handed over the information correctly, I will now receive the remaining half..”
“…Tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk.”
I couldn't help but laugh.
This guy knows too.
“I know, they're faces... That if I go, I will die. You'll be lucky if your life isn't taken away, let alone the balance. But you can't run away either. I'll come after you to clean up after you..”
He was a person who knew how to use his head rather than his thoughts..
“So you deliberately exposed your identity to us..”
“It's not a lie that Jangmag has the skills that are as rumored, but I know that there are many lies in their actions. To escape from the faces, you need the power of the veil.”
“Have you decided that we will spare you for passing on information about the darkness of the Veil? That seems like a bit of a misjudgment..”
“No, I know how to see people properly. I was sure the moment I saw your face. we can survive.”
“…why?”
I'd be lying if I said this made me feel bad.
‘Are you looking down on me??’
Grinning…
the man laughed.
“I think it makes sense.”
“…Do you plan to resolve it amicably through dialogue??”
the man said this.
“I'll tell you where to pick up the balance..”
“It sounds obvious.”
“But, I also need to check one thing. Can you take them out? From the looks of it, they seem to be newcomers to the tent..”
It wasn't wrong..
It's okay to doubt.
Compared to the notoriety of these faces, we have achieved nothing yet..
“There is a way. I can't say it though. Anyway, we'll take care of our part. But is that all??”
“Of course, this will not be enough. If you guys want to shake off those damn masks. Honestly, we are rooting for you guys. In that sense… I won't give you any other information.”
“other information?”
“When we found out that Rian was Jangmag, we did a lot of research. Regardless of means or methods.”
“about what?”
“faces.”
information about faces.
This really interested me..
‘Was this the reason you were confident??’
The man's three fingers are stretched out.
“3Pass over all the information. Kill the faces and let us escape.”
“The decision is made after hearing the information..”
“Yes, but you won't be able to refuse it. All three pieces of information are helpful to you..”
The man whispered in my ear.
Rather than feeling tickled, each word gave me goosebumps..
Because the contents were all dangerous.
“…I'm sure?”
“There is no definite information anywhere. However, the reliability is high.”
If I had been sure, I would have doubted it instead..
“All information is just a reference.”
“How did they get their hands on the information??”
“If you only dig into one side, there is no answer. I just drew the big picture. I got lucky and got caught..”
3 clues I received from him.
i told him.
“you are free.”
“Look, this makes sense..”
* * *
A few days later, at night, a secret meeting was scheduled to take place in a very dark forest..
The informants who were scheduled to leave this world with their throats cut by surprised faces were not present..
Instead, Yurim and I came..
“eww… It's cold. Let’s stay close, Seol-ah.”
“okay.”
Leaning towards each other on the tree.
Soon, there will be a battle here.
You better relax.
‘My first opponents are faces..’
Unusually, there was not just one person with a surprised face..
were sisters.
It is said that their fighting power is lower than that of other faces, but when they come together, they exert just as much power..
Slurp…
The sound of quietly approaching, like the approaching dusk..
‘…come.’
I nodded to Yurim..
Yurim took a deep breath and nodded..
Zech…
‘…uh?’
Swish…
The guy turns around and goes back..
I knew because Yurim gave me the signal first..
This is a different story..
Should you chase them or wait here?.
There was a reason for each.
Simply put, if I didn't chase after them now, there was a risk of losing sight of Rian and the faces. Of course, there was a risk that it could draw us into other places and lead us into a trap..
The options waiting here are definitely safe..
‘Because support was supposed to come.’
For this work, one person from outside the organization decided to come to support. It seemed like he also had a relationship with Yurim..
It is said that he learned swordsmanship from that person when he was a child living in a tent..
Yurim’s swordsmanship was solid..
Probably influenced by that person.
“What should I do? You already left a message saying that the message is coming this way.….”
My senses, instinctively following the flow of events, warned me..
If you miss it, there's no next chance.
“Let's leave a mark.”
“Mark? Let's chase it together?”
“I do not have time. Why does it seem difficult??”
Respect Yurim.
She was the main force in the battle, so if she refuses, it's definitely something to think about again..
“good! Snowfall, if that’s what you think! I like it unconditionally!”
The real problem is that Yurim holds my opinion in high regard..
Because it saved her life time and time again..
Shisik-!
After leaving a mark on the tree, I immediately chased after it. They've noticed, so they won't just run away..
We also increased tracking speed.
pot-!
Paaaaat-!
Yurim can run much faster than me. Still, running side by side is probably out of consideration for me..
pabababat-!
we stopped at the same time.
“This is why tent kids have no fun. You guys are tents, right? How did you find out??”
Two masked women appeared in the dark with wide eyes and surprised expressions..
Tuk-tuk…
A woman with a slightly lower voice tapped the sheath of her sword..
“I've prepared the balance, but it looks like they're going to intercept it..”
“I can't help it... Shouldn’t we at least take care of them??”
It meant that the balance would soon be beheaded, so it was like a warning or a declaration of war..
‘…Are you used to it? No, it's not unfamiliar?’
women's voices.
gesture.
small habit.
All of that was familiar.
“name….”
“…what?”
“What is your name?”
“What are you saying, boy??”
“I don’t know, are you playing house? I guess you're curious about our names.?”
My sister answered.
“Well, I'll tell you. These are names I threw away anyway. I'm Veldre. I am your sister.”
“Belian. It's my younger brother. Kick… Why do I have to tell you this??”
“Then you can kill me now?”
Veldre, Belian.
‘that's right… I think I've heard of it.’
…Seol-ah.
“Seol-ah!”
“ah… huh.”
“…I'll have to fight?”
Yurim said with her hands shaking..
She had a bad habit of getting extremely nervous before a battle. A completely different person from me.
Even though Yurim had tremendous talent, this habit was the reason why he was captured by Agras..
But that's just her from the past.
Sigh…
I placed my hand on the back of her hand..
“Don't be nervous.”
“…….”
“I'm with you.”
It's a magic spell.
giving her wings.
Sssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss For…
She calmly sinks like a lie.
As if leaving your body in the sea.
Paat!
Srrrrrrr!
Srrrrr!
A surprised face pulling out a sword as if convulsing.
“what….”
“I felt it too?”
Yurim’s momentum has changed..
‘Rather, you should be nervous. It's real.’
Rather, the problem was me..
Yurim's reaction felt normal, so I wasn't nervous..
Not a single one.
I was very used to being on the battlefield..
Commanding the battlefield and devising a winning formula.
Sheet music unfolds in my head.
Composition of instruments, solidity of sound, accumulation of chords.
Everything on the battlefield resonates.
Long strides, completeness of the maneuver, high heart rate.
“My younger brother is sagging..”
nod….
Yurim nodded..
and crash at the same time.
Twaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa-!
[Use the bell of darkness.]
[Summons a ghost made of shadows.]
[Wraiths are good at destroying surrounding terrain..]
[The wraith is affected by the summoner's abilities..]
Whioooooooo…
When the shadow wraith, the servant of darkness, was summoned, the sisters radiated light from their swords..
Sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo…
vibrating sword.
“Yurim… know?”
“Yeah, I'll buy you some time.”
The winning formula we perfected.
Yurim will faithfully implement it..
Paaaaang-!
Yurim flew out like a whirlwind..
The intention is to tie the sisters together before they disperse..
“where!”
Taaaaaang-!
Taaaaaang!
two crashes.
Yurim gains tens or hundreds of times more information from the conflict than others..
And, that is where victory or defeat is decided..
Kaga Gagak!
Cross swords with Veldre…
Paaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa-!
He kicked Belian who was running towards him..
“Pfft….”
‘it's okay!’
If you can stop it once, it means you can do it thousands of times..
Yurim is that kind of kid..
‘Then I….’
Wow!-!
[Use expanding darkness.]
[The area suddenly darkens..]
……
Magic that affects the surrounding environment.
I was a summoner, a fighter, and a wizard..
The expanding darkness usually affects the surrounding environment, making it suitable for moderately sized battles..
It was not very useful in small-scale fights like this because the magic consumption was high compared to the effect, but I came up with a way to use it..
Whioooooooo…
feed right away.
The summoned servant of darkness began to suck in the darkness. I counted the numbers backwards.
30going down from.
‘30Choda, Yurim. Until perfect victory.’
My joining the fight straight away could ease the burden on her..
However, it was not a sure way to win.
“…what?”
“…I'll start from there.”
When the servant of darkness showed strange behavior, the sisters with surprised faces quickly responded..
Then, Yurim swung his sword sharply..
Quaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa-!
slash.
“Ughhh….”
“…what?”
A straight line was drawn on the floor..
Right in front of Yurim’s feet.
“I can't get over it, never.”
“…It's thrilling?”
“I really need to go this way too..”
whilick-!
whilick-!
The sisters' swordsmanship became strange..
The two soon moved as one..
Yurim must have felt it too, concentrating without closing his eyes..
10.
the crash happened.
Quaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa-!
“I blocked it?”
“Then, try blocking this too.!”
[Velian uses a vibrating sword..]
[The sword vibrates, making defense difficult..]
[Veldre uses a spread sword..]
[The effect given to the sword gradually expands and spreads..]
……
different swords.
5.
Yurim noticed their trick..
Whioooooooo…
I raised my spirits and prepared for the coming shock..
“I got caught!”
Taaaaaang-!
Belian and Veldre's swords overlapped with Yurim's sword..
Paaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa-!
A shock strong enough to shake nearby trees was transmitted from Yurim's sword backwards..
Squeaky…
A small wound appeared on Yu-rim's face and her arms trembled..
1….
But I endured it.
“Huh... Heo Eok….”
“It's over, I can't even lift a finger anymore... sister?”
“for a moment… I can't see that guy..”
“…what?”
Wow!-!
I supported Yurim from behind..
And I took out the number I had prepared..
3The result of thinking for years.
I followed a strangely familiar path..
I got a terrible headache every time I knocked on that door, but I kept knocking..
I instinctively felt that the answer was there. It is… It was a treasure trove..
Whioooooooo…
[The dark servant has charged enough darkness.]
[Summon the Shadowlife.]
[Shadowlife's combat power is proportional to the amount of darkness used to summon it and the summoner's abilities..]
The darkness gradually grows bigger.
And the giant who appeared inside.
“…what's this.”
“Something like this….”
Yurim laughed bitterly..
The reason the battle unfolds like this is because she is confident and wants it..
Just like the prince in a fairy tale, he saves me.
Huuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu…
Shadowlife's fist was pulled back and then bounced forward..
Paaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa-!
Ujijijik…
“Oh my gosh….”
The surprised-faced sisters tried to block the fist and reduce the force, but ended up hitting a tree and injuring themselves..
“Cough… This kind of power... Something like this….”
Just in time, my sister said something nice to accept..
yes i am born again.
To shake off the days I endured in hell.
“this is not power.”
“…It's not strength?”
What Toki said the day he brought me out of hell.
“It is the belief of the veil that embraces the darkness..”
I am the crow of the tent.
Now I have sprouted wings that allow me to fly anywhere..
