31The second word overturns the game board (Episode 438)
Adventure 36-2 ‘Talking Snacks’’
ungoverned territory.
A place where Castrang, the blood vessel of the North, cannot reach. A place where different races, Mother Nature, and the primitive and harsh cold come into play..
You are walking around there with Gian, a former Baron of the Council, as your guide..
Without knowing the destination, no, to know the destination.
Jian, who calls herself Cocoro, is clearly looking ahead with eyes full of enthusiasm..
However, he is not sincere and shows no weaknesses, so it is difficult to trust him..
Should I trust him??
The incident that occurred during the night is also concerning..
Meanwhile, you have arrived in Trium, a kingdom taken over by ogres, to deal a fatal blow to the council's work..
As expected, the ogres, who had no way of missing the smelly meat, came running in a month..
We need to get out of their way and find the council's henchmen..
Objective: Encounter the Council forces that have infiltrated Trium..
Be careful, this adventure is very dangerous.
Be careful, this adventure changes from moment to moment..
Be careful, if you clash directly with the council, the long march begins..
Current remaining time 「Unknown」
The ogre's troubled eyes in front of the snowfall.
“uh… Can't I just take one bite??”
“No, I have something to talk to your king about..”
“The king doesn't talk to junk.”
“So, you are a guest..”
The ogre huffed and condensed Kang Seol's words and conveyed them to the other ogres around him..
“They say I can't eat it?”
“Ooooh! It doesn't make sense.-!”
“Can't I eat it without the king knowing??”
“The king will be angry... I'm scared when I'm angry.”
“I don't like that….”
“must be taken to the king.”
“Should the king share some??”
“I think I'll give you at least one..”
“Him! The others are hard or small and tasteless. I like him!”
When the ogre pointed at Syndio and spoke, Sindio trembled and whispered to Kang Seol..
“Well, what do they say? You just pointed at me..”
“…I like you.”
“Yes?”
It wasn't wrong..
Because the word ‘like’ can be used in many different ways..
“Small! The house is very small!”
When Tansia pointed to houses that were significantly smaller than those of the ogres, Jian responded:.
“Trium was originally a human kingdom. If it were a little closer geographically, it would have occupied a place in the federation by now..”
“But why is there no one?”
“It was abandoned quite a long time ago. Because of those ogres.”
Tansia looked at the ogres and said.
“You look scary, ogre.”
“Tsk tsk… Yeah, that's why I hate it. Still, I guess I liked Trium and it never comes out..”
Sindio shook his head..
“This is incorrect information. To be precise, they attempted to expand outside their territory several times, but there was friction with the natives in the non-administered areas. After blood was shed, the current boundary became clearer..”
The reason why the non-administrative area was dangerous was also because of the natives who survived even with these ogres by their side..
Meanwhile, the ogre that was thinking turned back and bent its knees. The lid of the wooden box he was carrying on his back was opened..
“Get in here, I'm taking you to the king..”
“…okay.”
Kangseol took a quick step forward, but Sindio stopped him..
“It's a lunch box, no matter who sees it!”
“So, you're not going in? They say they will take you to the king. At least I won't lie when it comes to fat..”
The ogres of Trium are top predators, but they have two things to fear:.
One is hunger and the other is their king fat.
Snowfall said as she entered the wooden box..
“You're taking us to the fat guy, right??”
“Of course! Go to the fat guy! Instead, I hope one person comes into our mouths later.!”
“well… If we get a chance.”
“What do they say??”
“I will take you there safely and accurately..”
- Everyone, you need to study the language hard..
- The interpreters are not trustworthy either..
- This guide… It's not unusual.
Aside from being unpleasant, it was an unavoidable choice. If they didn't ask the ogre, it was clear that another ogre would come after them..
When the entire party finally entered the ogre's lunch box, the ogres started running excitedly..
thud-!
thud-!
thud-!
“Fast, fast!”
“Tsk tsk… If I had met him on flat ground in the first place, I wouldn't have been able to run away..”
It seemed as if the ogre was personally telling us that saying that bigger people are duller is just a prejudice..
“…I see a lot of white bones..”
“The history of destruction must be that old. There will come a day when not even their descendants will remember..”
“How did Trium become an uninhabitable land?….”
“The prosperity and decline of civilization are here at the same time. Is it a return to barbarism??”
“You say something quite tasteful. Are you interested in history or archeology??”
“All I care about is survival. Surviving. That is justice and goodness.”
“…Of course, I thought so..”
The ogre carried the party to the center of the tree at incredible speed..
It no longer mattered what the size of the Triam Kingdom was in the past. It's a history that has now been largely lost..
And after their territory was completely torn apart by the ogres..
After being devoured, only the remains of the bones sank into the city..
The ogre was not tired.
After running for a full day at an astonishing speed, the royal castle of Triam began to come into view..
Guard soldiers encountered in front of the royal castle.
“That's it! Grind bones! stop! I hid something to eat! It smells!”
“right! But I'm not going to eat it!”
“what?”
“Go to the fat guy. It's a joke.”
“What did you say? Bone grinder, are you hungry??”
The guard opened the lid of the lunch basket containing Kang Seol and his group..
Kangseol said with an frown.
“…Close it.”
The guard opened his mouth wide and shouted..
“Said! The ingredients, I said! take me to the fat guy!”
“I get it!”
Thump thump thump thump-!
Ogre, a being without order or system.
But they were already strong enough even without those inconvenient things..
The ogre called Bone Galgal stopped once again in front of the artificial throne created by destroying the royal castle..
“Grinding bones, what's going on??”
“I brought it to show the fat guy, the ingredients..”
“Fat guy, I’m full now, go back..”
“It's a piece of junk you're talking about.”
“Fat! They say there is something to talk about! Bone grinder brought it.!”
A loud sound was heard from the throne room..
“Is that delicious??”
“I haven't tried it.”
“Show me, the ingredients.”
A bone grinder who flips over and shakes the lunch basket, knocking the group out of the air..
“sleep… Wow!-!”
“damn….”
When Sindio and Gian tried to fall upside down in the air, Karen and Karuna came out and caught them..
Wow-!
[We use Ojakgyo (烏鵲橋).]
[Shape structures using creatures.]
Snowfall and his party come down the stairs using a flock of crows without falling..
- Gyeonwoo: Moeo... Give it back…
- It's so hot lol
- As if some kind of demon lord appears haha.
A bloated ogre was sitting on the throne. No, to be exact, the throne was cramped so it would have been overhanging..
“are you fat?”
- Startle!
- You nodded thinking you were calling me.….
- Please add a race to the front.
The fat man asked with a surprised expression..
“How do you say that, dried meat? Did the ogre teach you??”
“At some point, I learned how to do it..”
“excellent! The ingredients can talk. It's a waste to put it in the pot..”
“It’s a waste to eat… But I want to eat it.”
“Fat, you can eat it?”
“What if he curses at me in his stomach? I already ate it so I can't eat it again.….”
Snowfall looked at the huge mountain-like Ogre King Fat and said..
“Have you seen people like us around here lately??”
“The ingredients?”
“what… yes.”
“Was there? Did you eat it??”
“I've never eaten it.”
“It was like that, right? I heard you didn't eat it?”
“ah! there was! there was!”
Another ogre recalled a similar situation and explained it further..
“The material that deceived us! used magic!”
“Oh right. liars.”
snowfall asked.
“Did you use your own words??”
“No, it was different from the stuff I was talking about. It's magic. Communicated with talent.”
It means that something was used, whether it was interpretation magic or intention magic..
When Kang Seol relayed this to Jian, Jian laughed bitterly..
“Please ask if they asked for guidance to the ruins?.”
Kang Seol asked the fat guy the same question as Jian..
“Was it so??”
“right! It was like that! He said he would come out with a lot of treasure! lied!”
“Did you plan on letting me live if you brought out the treasure??”
“no? If you eat it, it's over.?”
“…….”
The ogres are starting to get excited..
“Shameful! You have to put it in the pot.!”
“no! Just kill it!”
“But I still want to eat it….”
“Then let's eat!”
snowfall asked them.
“Why didn't you go after the ruins??”
“The ruins are too small. It doesn't break either..”
“aha….”
This was the reason why the ogres could not chase down the council's henchmen..
Kang Seol chuckled and suggested..
“How about making a deal??”
“transaction? Ogre, no deal. You don't have to.”
“We'll get revenge on those bastards..”
“plural? It's revenge?”
The fat man said with an ugly face..
“Don't be fooled twice! Throw it in the pot!”
“That's right, it's a lie! let's eat!”
Snowfall said a word to the ogres who were about to rush in..
“There will be no loss. Wouldn't it be okay if we guard the ruins so we can't escape??”
“Umm… is it?”
“Is that it??”
“Maybe so….”
smiling snowfall.
“If you guide me to the ruins, I'll bring their heads..”
“what? really? I get it! I'll guide you to the ruins! If you will avenge us... don't eat!”
“oh my god! fat is great!”
“You must be hungry!”
“Let’s invite them to a meal too.!”
“good!”
Aaaaaaaaaaa-!
Ahhhhh-!
Syndio, tired of the screaming ogres, trembled and asked Kang Seol..
“what… Uh, what happened??”
“It worked out well. first… I don't think it will fit in the pot..”
“Kick… It's amazing how the conversation works..”
[For the first time, I had a conversation with the fat man, the ruler of Trium..]
[Achieve the first achievement ‘Avoid an empty stomach’.]
[Obtain the first title “Innocent Solid”.]
* * *
thud…
thud…
thud…
A group of people traveling in a lunch basket.
“Wow… Wow... I feel like throwing up.”
“The ruins were quite far away..”
“I see it over there.”
After running for another full day, we reached a terrain with strangely shaped rocks..
“Is that the entrance to the ruins? hmm….”
“is human.”
“They are congress bastards. I see a sign. We have to kill them all.”
“…I get it.”
Those camped near the entrance must have spotted an ogre running from a distance and hurried into the ruins..
“Oh my gosh!”
“escape into the ruins!”
The distance between them was so long that by the time Bone Gralgae arrived at the entrance to the ruins, the humans had already disappeared..
“We will be here. Bring me that guy's head.”
“All right.”
Seuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu…
The ogre stretched out his hand and placed the group on top of it and lowered them down..
“what… What is it, why don't you throw it away this time??”
“I guess we are no longer food..”
Kugugugugung Palace…
They seemed to have recognized Jian and hurriedly closed the door they entered. There was not a single remnant left..
Fortunately, there are several similar doors on either side of it..
“…Jian, what is in front of here??”
“Since it is a ruin, it must be full of monsters. There will be traps too.”
“At the end?”
“…A piece of affirmation is sleeping.”
“I guess it's something unrelated to the oath..”
“It's related. It's just that it's not something that's sealed by an oath..”
“Is the piece of assertion important??”
“…It's important.”
No other explanation was needed.
Kangseol read the sentence written above the ruins door..
“If you want the courage to face great power, go forward united. Otherwise, you will face great hardship and great reward at the same time.….”
“…It would be difficult for Congress to immediately recognize the deciphered text after months of waiting..”
“…This ruin can be easily passed only through one door.?”
Jian shrugged his shoulders..
“Well, guess what??”
“It means I don't know exactly?”
“No, your interpretation is correct. But, I think I know what you're trying to do..”
And then I shook my head..
“It's too dangerous to divide people. You never know what might be there?”
Kangseol shook his head with a different meaning..
“The power of the ruins themselves is not great. I felt it?”
Karen and Karuna nodded. Tansia didn't know what he was talking about so she stayed quiet..
“…What, are you the only ones who felt something? Why?”
“Iknow, right… I'm not sure….”
It was a pure gap that came from a difference in class. For those who reached the highest level, it was easy to understand that the power felt from this relic was not at a level to worry about..
Karen said with a smile.
“Karuna, this is definitely... Isn't that the feeling you get when hunting a dirt general spider??”
“…that's right.”
snowfall asked.
“Earth General Spider?”
“This is a guy who makes a house in the ground. If you try to hunt, the soil hardens like a rock and blocks the entrance..”
“hmm….”
“However, leave the other entrances open. Then, put a straw fire inside it..”
“When the smoke spreads throughout the burrow, the mud spider will come out of the burrow on its own..”
“Sometimes, toxic guys just die inside..”
I thought I knew why Karen brought up the story of the dirt general spider..
One door they were attacking was closed, the other four doors were all open..
“Well, you are the one who makes the decision. snowfall. Because you know the strength of your group best..”
Jian waited for Kang Seol’s decision. Snowfall said firmly.
“Go to every door.”
