31The second word overturns the game board (Episode 461)
A huge surge of magical power occurred in the Northern Federation. A magic that reduces the magic response of those infected with frost fever to close to 0..
This could not be called magic. In the human era, it is a demon that should not exist..
“eww… Ugh….”
“You're awake.”
Han So-mi just realized that as soon as she sensed the magic wave coming from Ur, her entire body lost strength and she fainted..
Jamard helped her up..
“can you walk?”
“…Yes, yes. I can walk.”
Han So-mi starts walking as soon as she stands up. He was still in a hesitant position..
“uh? Why is my body like this….”
“…It's probably because of exposure to excessive magic waves. It'll probably be like that for a while..”
“…ah!”
The magic I felt even though I opened the door to the underpass and passed through the internal bulkhead several times..
I lost my mind from that dizzying power..
“…It's crying?”
“I do not know.”
“You know.”
“I do not know. I'm just guessing.”
Han So-mi forced herself to ask..
“Any guesses??”
Jamard said after looking at Han So-mi..
“dead. This amount of horsepower... It's natural to die.”
“eww… Ugh….”
“don't cry.”
“I don't want to hear it?”
“There are many other ways to prove that you are a weakling..”
“I am… I'm not weak!”
Han So-mi huffed and glared at Jamad with watery eyes..
“Good momentum. Yes, stay like that. Is that what he said you were?.”
“guy? What did Ur say about me??”
“I was told that I was weak and that it wasn't of much help during normal times..”
“…Surely that's not the end? Then, I want to cancel what I just cried about..”
“She was also said to be a woman who was braver than she looked and would do her job when faced with a crisis..”
“Sobbing… I should have cried more. also….”
“So, I said you can trust me..”
“Hehehehe….”
“That's strange. I told her she wouldn't cry if I said this.”
“…….”
Han So-mi and Jamard crossed their gazes..
“you… It's okay.”
“…yes.”
she grinned.
“You cried so hard! There's no use crying now.”
“You recovered quickly..”
“I've experienced so many amazing things. There have been times when I was left alone in the nick of time, but... . This is what happens when I meet Kang Seol..”
“Tsk tsk… Doesn’t this guy cause accidents around him? But thanks to him, his life was saved, right?.”
“Yeah, that's interesting... But when will the guide Ur talk about appear??”
Jeopuk…
Jeopuk…
Cheers flowed from the unlit underground passage. He was probably the guide Ur had mentioned..
“…You came.”
“marijou?”
“Yes, it's me. Everyone is safe.….”
“thank god! I'm so glad….”
grasp-!
Han So-mi ran to Marie Ju and hugged her. Marie Joux stroked her head in silence..
“…You had a lot of trouble.”
“Outside! Do you know what's going on outside??”
Marijue laughed bitterly..
“All news from the Federation has been cut off. Those infected with frost fever are wiped out... Everyone froze.”
“…….”
“Outside is a world where the heart has stopped, Miss Somi..”
Marijuu's words were also blurred. Although she was trying to control her emotions, she felt sad..
“…You are the guide Ur spoke of.?”
“yes. Ur finally said that he would not be able to stop this day from coming. Faster or slower, I have no choice but to get there.”
“…What are you guiding??”
“You'll find out if you follow me..”
Han So-mi, who saw Jamard nodding, also followed Marijuu..
Jeopuk…
Jeopuk…
thud…
thud…
The basement of the Capitol was strong enough not to collapse even if a magical explosion occurred from outside..
In addition, it was connected underground to major facilities in the capital city of Servion, so it was possible to escape anywhere from here..
So, neither Jamard nor Somi Han knew where Marijue was heading..
“If you didn't move right away... There must have been no last hope.”
“Did Ur order everything??”
“yes, everything….”
What can I say about the first mage’s meticulousness? It wasn't difficult for him to tell everyone what to do when things got worst..
He never mentioned the existence of the underground, but he inquired about the existence of similar facilities and confirmed where they were all connected..
Jeopuk…
Jeopuk…
Han So-mi was a little tired after walking for hours..
“Shh, shall we take a break? It's a bit far.….”
“They're all here. I can rest soon.”
“Oh, that's it..”
“It's here.”
Kugoong…
Kugugugugung Palace…
the door opened.
Kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk…
“here is….”
“It's history..”
“no way?”
The group had no reason to choose history as their destination. If history had to be the destination, then of course the goal had to be here too..
“We'll travel on the Castrang.”
“…ah!”
A group of people appeared from afar.
They were all dressed up in uniform so it was easy to tell them apart..
“Are you here? Marijuu.”
“Everyone was well..”
“ha ha ha… Because we were completely quarantined in advance..”
“…Everything went as expected.”
“I was surprised too.”
Han So-mi realized that they were Castrang's train drivers..
“Fuel and resupply has already been completed. All tracks were left empty under the pretext of maintenance..”
“…You did as you said..”
“If it weren't for Marijuu, I would have dismissed it all as crazy. no… If Para's family did not pay all of the expected damages for a week,….”
a familiar name.
“blue… What happened to Farah??”
“…I couldn't come to my appointment. You must have noticed the infection..”
Unfortunately, it seemed like all members of the Silver Lion, including Farah, were swept away by the tsunami..
“then… Let's go. We act with a historical mission in mind. Don't forget, everyone, that I have to complete my mission to send those with me to the front lines.!”
“yes! We have prepared it for you. Just climb to number 1.!”
1like.
Plus, there are so many train drivers..
Did it take so many people to drive one train??
Han So-mi soon learns why..
“oh my god….”
Trains lined up at the station.
“Wow, we need so many trains.?”
“Ur said so.”
“…Then you're right..”
Puhuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu-!
Castrang sounded a miracle and set the wheel in motion..
Cheolkeong…
1Han So-mi and her group boarded the car.
As Castrang began to move, the tension eased a bit..
Perseok-!
Castrang mercilessly destroys the corpses of the infected who hit the tracks..
“Now my role is done.….”
“yes?”
“Castrang, a symbol of northern development... Now it's the only thing here that has warmth..”
“…….”
“every… Because everyone is frozen.”
Sigh…
Mariju leaves after wiping her eyes..
She, a promising noblewoman, recalled her last conversation with Ur..
- Marijuu, it must be a difficult role..
- Why me... Why are you putting this burden on me??
- The opponents are probably people who have been plotting things since before the Federation was established. The collapse of the Union cannot be prevented. Those who survive will be less than 10%.
- If the Union falls... Isn’t it the end of everything??
- It could be the end for you. However, it is not the end of humanity..
- my friend… My family... They say my work and people will all die! that… that….
- It must be hard to hold on. Well then, pretend he’s dead..
- what is that….
- Load those I have sent onto Castrang. Once you get there, your role is over. Do whatever you want. If that's what you really want... If your luggage is heavy.
Marijuu realizes more clearly what those words mean now..
She muttered while looking out the window at the falling snow in the second floor lounge..
“A snowstorm is coming. beautiful….”
Her grinning face was reflected in the window..
The muzzle of the gun was pressed against her temple..
“really… beautiful.”
Taaaaaang-!
None of Han So-mi and Jamard who were sitting were surprised by the gunshot..
No, Jamard felt a surprise. Han So-mi’s calmness.
“…Did you know??”
“Marijue, your eyes were dead. The moment this happened... He's already dead.?”
“…….”
“The moment I ascended Castrang, my eyes completely lost hope. just… I could only feel the clamor that I had done it..”
“…This was the station she stopped at..”
“i know. then… Where will our stop be??”
Han So-mi grinned..
“You put hope on the train, but you also lose hope at the same time. People are so contradictory.”
“…aren't you scared?”
“It's a world where it's hard to survive if you don't go crazy..”
her excessive cheerfulness.
Maybe it comes from a desperate need to survive..
“Because Han So-mi is strong in crisis! … paradoxically.”
Jamad and Han So-mi looked at each other and laughed..
They had to postpone their hopes to each other..
There was a snowstorm outside the window..
It was a blizzard that started at the same time the Federation froze..
The blizzard will not stop even for a moment until the times change..
It is truly the end of the four seasons..
* * *
“I hope it's not a waste this time….”
“Is Razin’s information wrong??”
Kang Seol and his party once went to one of the locations pointed out by Rajin..
To put it simply, the result was nothing..
“I guess it was because the first place I went to was located on the ground… The damage to the ruins was so severe..”
When relics containing memories of time are left on the ground, they are bound to weather..
It is chipped away by rain and snow and dug up by the wind..
Grave robbers and ruin hunters won't just ignore it either..
“Sleep here today?”
Karen shook her head in response to Tansia’s question..
“If you go a little further, there are ruins. I'm planning to check with my own eyes today to see if it's okay..”
“What if there is nothing like last time??”
“So, what should I do? Should I at least show Rajin my bitter taste?….”
Rajin and Karen broke up without much regret. Rajin clearly handed over her power to her, and Karen also seemed to have no regrets about Rajin..
One thing is, Rajin did tell Kesii to let him know at any time if he needed help. Unlike Razin, Keshii is said to be a free being who can do anything..
‘Well, according to Rajin's words, if they have to die, they will die, if they have to fight, they will fight.….’
That's what faith is.
A force that can also be a compulsory force that can define life's goals.
After thinking for a moment, Kangseol realized that he had reached his destination before the sun set..
“Is it here?….”
“Can't you see anything? Even more than the last time I went there. Last time, the site was still there..”
“Here, I found something.”
Karuna gestured..
“hmm? I didn't find the entrance to the ruins.?”
What he found was not an entrance.
“Someone was here before us. It hasn't been long.”
traces of fire.
Even traces of spilled food.
Everyone's eyes became cold.
This was a relic related to the king of the era..
Whether the person encountered in such a place was an ally or an enemy, the weight was usually placed on the latter..
“This… I think so?”
Jian said while looking at the unique altar in the center..
Altar with a round sphere.
Snowfall approached with great strides and imbued the sphere of the altar with magical energy..
Huuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu…
The altar radiated light..
“Uh oh?”
No, the entire ruins.
Dedddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddd…
The ruins site has begun to sink..
“It's going down! this!”
None of them had the experience of having an entire ruin buried underground..
“Kahahaha! kill!”
“I'm killing you!”
Only Karen and Tansia had fun singing “I’m Excited” and “It’s Fun” passionately..
Cuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuure…
As the altar fell to the ground, Gian and Syndio rushed forward..
“Ugh… Wooooow….”
“I feel like throwing up….”
“From me….”
Kang Seol and his party realized that they had descended underground, and that there was a high probability that this was a relic related to the king of the new era that Rajin had spoken of..
“I'll take the lead.”
“please… I feel a little dizzy. Otherwise, I would have taken the lead..”
“don't lie.”
After Gian and Sindio vomited once, they followed behind Kang Seol..
The walls were full of all kinds of pictures..
However, there were many repeated shapes, and in addition, they were arranged in a way that made no sense..
“Umm….”
“Let's go a little further..”
When Kang Seol nodded and stood in front of the crossroads ahead, she felt someone's presence right next to her..
‘this!’
The skill of the person who entered the ruins first exceeded his expectations..
From the entrance to the ruins to the boldness of the attack.
It was a perfect surprise attack.
Paaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa-!
Of course, the hand of Kang Seol was Shin Yu, the hand of a peerless swordsman..
snatching hand.
‘…female?’
His wrists were thin and his hair was long..
“huh?”
“uh….”
“you!”
Since they were ambushed, they had to return it, but Kangseol hesitated..
Because he was a familiar person.
“Congee?”
“snowfall!”
Konji hugged Snowfall..
Growling…
“hungry! I'm dying!”
The first person to enter the ruins was Konji, the woman who helped the expedition team defeat Gecko at Spuno Volcano..
