31The second word overturns the game board (Episode 393)
“Huh... Heo Eok….”
“older brother! I can't run any faster?”
“You guy! Now is the best! Why are you so slow?!”
“That's right, I'm running the fastest now too.!”
“Then shut up and run!”
Brother Shin was running faster than any day he had ever lived..
There was a reason why it had to be that way..
“Xinyu, don’t worry. There might still be some time left!”
“okay! Just trust your brothers! My brothers will make sure to get you to the door on time.!”
Shinhyeon ran with Shinyu in his arms..
Shinyu could catch up with them in speed if he moved his hands, but he couldn't keep up with the other brothers in terms of endurance..
I felt warmth.
Since they are souls, it will not be the heat generated by excessive activity..
- My legs are loose. Well, don't overdo it. Now, get on your back..
Shinyu had a similar experience before..
I remember feeling exhausted after visiting Xingang and visiting the mountain where he was practicing..
And Shin Kang came down the mountain carrying Shin Yu on his back..
Trained body, hard worker.
It was warm by his side..
“omg… omg… Almost everything! We're almost there!”
“There it is! If there's still time left….”
And now, the brothers' side was also warm. The warmth of his brothers was present in every life he lived..
Cracking…
widely…
widely…
Their steps gradually became slower. Because I had already seen the results and was doubting it..
“…It's closed..”
“Seol also left..”
“Hehehe… This is so... I'm embarrassed.”
The brothers were warm, but reality was harsh..
final gateway.
The door was tightly shut..
The door was indeed huge, and no matter how much I looked, there was no sign of it opening again..
dump…
No matter how optimistic Shinhyun is, in this situation, his legs are bound to give out..
Xin Yu had to comfort them..
Sasak…
- I'm fine. Thank you everyone for your concern.
“It's okay... Boy, you're not okay at all!”
“……Need to find a way to open the door.”
They tried everything worth trying in that short period of time..
Kaaaaang-!
Kaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa-!
Clang…
“…….”
Both Shin Kang and Shin Hyeon's swords were broken. The door was solid, and a sword made of mere iron could not elicit any response..
Sasak…
- stop. That's enough now.
“…If you quit, if you quit, you….”
- It's okay to be left alone. Someday….
Will someone come back to the labyrinth someday?.
“That one day... If it never comes?”
couldn't answer anything.
If that happens, I will go crazy like the ghost guarding the charnel house where my brothers sleep..
everyone knew it.
- I'm sorry, it's all because of me.….
“Hey baby.”
Shin Rip called Shin Yu..
Xinyu silently listened to his eldest brother..
“When you leave the labyrinth, what do you plan to do??”
It was a random question.
Now, I can't leave the labyrinth, so why am I asking such a question?.
However, everyone is allowed to imagine.
- who? With Seol?
“No, not necessarily Seol. I'm asking what you think.”
- I am….
I just wanted to get out of the labyrinth. No, I've had this idea for a long time..
I just couldn't express it out loud because of my attachment to my brothers and my anxiety about being left alone..
‘If I leave the labyrinth….’
Just imagining it gave me a tremendous sense of liberation. Why haven't I made up my mind yet?.
When the brothers pushed back, like the options were made.
‘…ah!’
When I left the labyrinth, there was something I wanted to experience. It was a small wish I gained while experiencing the gateway to a twisted dream..
- I want to see snow.
“…eye?”
- Yes, snow. I saw it again in my dream.
Seasons that go round and round.
Weather and cold existed in the labyrinth, but it never snowed..
No, even if it had snowed in the labyrinth, I would have given the same answer..
“why… Is it snow??”
- that….
Why is it snow?.
Isn't it because on the day we faced snowfall, on the last day of Yurim, it snowed heavily?.
I had a good day.
The day we risked everything and fought.
Will there ever be another day when I let out such a dense breath?.
I thought it would be nice if I could escape the labyrinth and be able to breathe again..
After hearing the story, Shin Rip kept his mouth shut and then asked Shin Yu..
“Yua, did you go through the same door when you left Gangi at the final gate??”
same door?
Xinyu searched for memory for a moment and then scribbled down..
- It was the same door.
“Are you sure? Is this door also on the other side??”
- that's right. But why is that….
“Answer the question, there is no time. How long has this guy been fighting with the guy on the other side of this door??”
- that… I don't know. Because it was such a cruel fight….
A fight where you can't tell how much time passes. There was such a fight. Snowfall beyond the gate is probably going through the same situation..
“Right… Then there is still hope..”
- what?
“Brother, do you have any thoughts??”
Shin Lip whispered to Shin Hyeon.
Shinhyeon grinned after hearing his story..
“Isn’t that completely like gambling??”
“There are games where you have to bet all your money even though you know the odds are low. Isn't that so??”
Grinning…
“That is correct. Baby, step back.”
- What are you thinking??
“Step back, there is no time.!”
- but…
“hurry!”
Shinyu had no choice but to follow his brothers' words..
Two brothers face each other and try to open the door on both sides.
Geek…
Gigi Gigi Geek…
“Ugh….”
“Ughhh….”
I hope you don't.
Geek…
Gigi Geek…
“Ugh….”
“Ugh….”
No, don't do it..
Partszzzzzt…
Covered in darkness, they tried their best to open the door..
but…
Jeokjeok…
Blah blah blah…
Rather, cracks appeared in their hands..
So bad so bad…
no.
The crack widened in an instant. From hand to arm, from arm to whole body.
even the face.
Like a face reflected in a broken mirror, everything is cracked..
An unknown light leaked from their bodies..
dump…
They eventually fell in front of the door and leaned against it, unable to open it..
“Huh... Huh... My brother, I am speaking to you. As expected, if you just follow what your brother says, something will happen..”
“So, shouldn’t you have listened to me earlier?.”
“Hehehe… I'll nag you until the day I leave..”
- why… what are you doing?
Shinhyeon said.
“Shinyu. You are the guy who will surprise the world. Because you are the best among our brothers! I'm not the type of guy to be left in this shabby place..”
- What are you saying... what just happened….
Shin Lip said out of breath..
“It accelerated the collapse of the soul. It's probably going to explode soon..”
“If the door opens, it's good... Even if it's not, don't you think someone would hear an explosion of that magnitude??”
Someone notices the explosion.
someone.
“Seol is a quick-witted guy. I'm sure you'll understand.”
“Well, there are blessings I have received so far. Couldn’t you take your little brother with you??”
“Tsk tsk… You may have a thick face, but that's true. Shinyu, this is the last time for the brothers. Take note.”
- …….
“Don't be arrogant because of your talent. Don't regret the past..”
“Take note, this is what we leave you with.”
Shin Lip recounted the words he shared with his brothers on the day Shin Yu died..
“Shinyu, just as your death once brought brothers together, our death will bring you to Gangi..”
pitch black labyrinth.
your brother stepped in.
Three people stayed and one left. And now.
only one person remains.
“Don't cry, we... together.”
“Get away now! Shinyu!”
Shinyu cried quietly and turned around. I wanted to cry out loud, but all I could do was walk away from the door..
Jeokjeok…
Damn it…
“Hi-Hi… Hehehe… . You're really going.”
“…Hyuna, thank you. Let's meet as brothers in the next life too.”
“Brother too... You had a lot of trouble. Instead, in the next life, I will be your older brother..”
“…However much.”
Sigh…
Quaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa-!
A huge explosion shook the space. The power that Shinhyun and Shinrip had accumulated caused an explosion that seemed as if it was about to collapse the space itself..
Pusssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss…
As soon as the explosion subsided, Xin Yu ran towards the door..
The door is….
It was still tightly closed. Despite the impact of this huge explosion, it did not open..
Shinyu was left alone in front of him..
Now, only he can enjoy the labyrinth. And, his loneliness is also something that only he has to deal with..
It didn't feel real..
The remains of my brothers who became rags.
Even though they were pieces of darkness and not flesh, Shinyu gathered them piece by piece..
And then, blankly, I looked at the door and started making a body out of pieces..
* * *
Kaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa-!
Kaaaaang!
Whoop…
Whoops…
Snowfall, who was becoming accustomed to the power of Yasha, was gradually following Jamad's movements..
‘Jamard... I can't produce any more strength than I remember..’
Because it was fake, the power of the owner of the labyrinth seemed to be limited from the beginning..
Then, what you need to be wary of is shamanism, or great witchcraft..
Jinjutsu was not suitable for use in close combat, so even if you were only conscious of great sorcery, you could prolong the game..
Of course, prolonging the game did not mean that Jamard could be defeated..
Whoa whoa whoa-!
“Ughhh….”
“Why do you do that? Was the movement earlier just luck??”
Taaak-!
Twaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa-!
Witchcraft and magic intersected. As was their tendency, they were all magic and incantations armed with physical power..
bubbling…
“Ughhh….”
Ughhhhh…
“Wow….”
At the same time, they cry out and vomit blood..
“ha… ha….”
“Why do you do that? Are you tired already??”
Jamard had a slight advantage..
Kangseol paused for a moment and asked.
“…Didn't you hear something just now??
“sound?”
“…no. I guess it was a mistake.”
“You have so much time to spare, take out some more of your hidden cards..”
Geek…
“Otherwise, it will soon run out of breath..”
Whioooooooo…
To Kang Seol, the Yasha was the best sword..
2If it had been a year ago, it would have been normal for me to have turned into a blood clot as soon as I started fighting..
But now, even though it was difficult, I was able to continue the fight with Jamard, who had reached the highest level..
However, in order to win, we had to think harder. Fiercely, as always.
The one move that can turn defeat into victory.
Paaaaat-!
Kang Seol’s closed eyes opened. From the moment he decided to break through the labyrinth, he had been drawing a picture..
However, the picture is still unfinished.
“where!”
Go go go go go go go go go go go go go go go go go go-!
“Ugh….”
“If that's all the power... It's right to die here!”
Quaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa-!
Kangseol gritted his teeth and shook Jamad off..
Huuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu…
The path of the yaksha has unfolded once again..
Gigi Geek…
Among the various lines, only one flow was not reaching Jamard..
Snowfall grabbed the line without hesitation..
Huuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu…
Quaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa-!
pouring slashes.
A line stretched out.
Jamard stood still and stood still..
Didn't defend or counterattack.
Huaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa-!
The slash passed Jamard..
The gap was quite wide, and the slash flew somewhere and hit and disappeared..
Quaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa-!
“…What are you doing? I didn't even avoid it, but I missed it.”
“…No, I definitely cut myself..”
Cheolkeong…
Jamard turned around at the sound that followed..
Bulldog…
A sound was heard from a distant door. The sound of something being cut by a slash and falling to the floor..
From the beginning, Kang Seol released his energy by targeting the locked door. To open a door that is locked from the inside.
Geek…
Geek…
“You didn't hear it wrong?”
The heavy door opened slowly..
“It's there?”
There was a crudely made seal there..
“…Shinyu.”
Shinyu opened his mouth, engulfed in darkness smaller than a child. Because it was the energy of her brothers, when she opened her mouth, a sound came out..
“eww… ah… ah… uh….”
again.
pot-!
Shinyu suddenly starts running.
Jamard clapped his hands, feeling uncomfortable..
Wow-!
Sigh…
Several rock spears were formed and aimed at Xinyu..
Huh…
Huuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu…
Even though Xin Yu was not used to it, he avoided it all..
Jamard sensed something extraordinary in that movement..
Before I knew it, I threw a punch at Shinyu, who had come very close to me..
Huuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu-!
Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu…
The lower half of the crude body exploded..
“…I avoided it?”
I avoided the attack with that clumsy body. Shin Yu avoided the destruction of his entire body with his best movements..
Jamard became interested in the movement and did not chase after this strange guy..
Shinyu flops down between Kangseol and Jamard and squirms. It was the price of a late choice..
“…….”
sreung…
But suddenly, Kangseol pulled out his sword..
【no! What are you doing!】
Grief shouted..
Suddenly…
Fuwaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa-!
Snowfall, which cuts off its own right arm.
The sight of his expression not changing despite the pain that came from physical damage reminded me of someone..
- Shinyu, leave from me. I don't need you.
this place.
Those were the same words he said here while cutting off his arm..
It's Xinjiang.
The man Xin Yu looked up at reminded him of Xin Kang..
However, it was a different emotion and a different language than back then..
“…Shinyu. come to me i need you.”
Knee-bending snowfall.
- I hope we meet again at the end of this road.
“I will definitely take you to the end of this road.”
“…….”
“Now, tell me the answer. Are you still planning on staying in the labyrinth??”
Xin Yu was exhausted and forced his mouth to open..
“Take me… go… Give it… . wealth… It’s Tak… me….”
'Cause I'm sick of labyrinths now.
therefore…
If it's not too late yet.
“Take me… to the world….”
Grinning…
Snowfall touched Xinyu's arm and the amputated area..
Whirly Whirly-!
The blue line of Atromil and the red line of the original blood intertwined, connecting the arm and the cut surface..
[Atromil creates new pathways.]
[The original blood forcibly combines a new body to repair body defects..]
……
Well…
Sigh…
Despite the immense pain, Snow does not blink an eye..
multiple crashes.
life in dreams.
bloody battle in the snow.
It took a long time for their hearts to become one, but a moment was enough for Shin-yu to seep into Kang-seol..
[Constitution: The ghost's hand awakens.]
[Ghostly Hand: Blooming the Black Hand.]
[Black hands assist movement.]
[Moves at great speed for a short period of time.]
[Significantly reduces the time it takes to learn a movement.]
[A very powerful ghost dwells there.]
[Ability points are consumed.]
[Uses ability scores.]
[Uses ability scores.]
[Uses ability scores.]
[Uses ability scores.]
……
Finally, all ability points disappeared and the two became one..
Black hands are still awkward.
Jamad asked Kang Seol, who was looking at her with her hands clapping..
“that is… Is this the last strength you gained? At best… Things like hands?”
Kang Seol didn’t bother to explain about Shin Yu. Because soon you will find out even if you don’t like it.
Fight on a snowy field.
A former friend stands before your eyes as an enemy, and a former enemy stands by your side as a friend..
Many paths are intertwined.
“Shinyu. Let's show it, of that day….”
A winter where even the snowstorms stopped.
The quiet storm of that day.
The hearts hidden behind the early curtain call.
and…
“Us.”
Snowfall, Shinyu and Bitan faced forward..
Holding support-!
light flashed.
