31The second word overturns the game board (Episode 528)
- thank you.
do not see with eyes.
I can feel the breath of the living here.
Some are hot and some are cold.
I feel nothing from those who call themselves guardians. They are the ones who gave everything to that white tree..
poor guys.
No, I am no different from them..
not any different.
live a life without emotions.
live a life without expression.
I already understood in childhood that reality is cruel, and now I barely understand the mission hidden behind that cruelty..
Have you ever been loved?.
No, have you ever received attention?.
Grumble…
there is.
just once.
I definitely felt it.
Someone… that you are watching.
And what was in that gaze was none other than affection..
You are here now.
i can tell.
I can't see it but I can feel it.
Slurp…
need to get closer.
What does it feel like?.
Oh, you don't know me.
It's okay, I know..
- thank you.
My hands are warm.
As expected, it’s warm.
So, let me help you..
If I don't help, you don't have time.
- that… mobs…
- …I respect your decision.
Guardians, hello.
and…
- thank you.
Nice to meet you.
Thanks to you, I know I'm not alone.

[‘Inherited the legacy of ‘Mobs’.]
[Passing on the powers of the dead.]
[I take over the troublemaker..]
[You take over the troublemaker..]
[Every object you destroy breaks into more fragments.]
[Destructive power can be adjusted.]
[Increases the damage of fragments.]
[Calling: The contents of the things that need to be recovered are changed..]
……
Snowfall that warms my heart.
‘…I knew it.’
Mobs recognized at a glance Snowfall, who watched her from hatching to growth..
She didn't know if it was a characteristic of the guardian entity or because she was blind, but she chose to sacrifice herself without hesitation..
Was the warmth of childhood the only and greatest value to Mobs?.
‘…It's bitter.’
We didn't share much affection or spend a long time together, but was that enough for Mobs?.
Guardians say.
- The white tree perked up.
Slurp…
The pure white tree trunk instantly grabbed Karen and Karuna's wrists..
“what….”
Whirling…
The trunk left marks on their wrists and then returned to the white tree..
[Obtain the White Tree Seal.]
[You can resonate with the white tree at any time.]
……
‘Seal of the White Tree?’
- Now the white tree will remember your presence.
- Don't forget, one day you will become one with the white tree.
[I feel like I've made an important choice..]
……
While a very suspicious message was emerging, the guardian extended his hand forward with his palm showing..
- Now leave.
Bulloooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo-!
“Pfft….”
Three knights, including Snow Seol, were all blown away by the energy flowing from the guardian..
After straightening my posture and looking around, I found myself in the middle of the Tamuto jungle..
“…….”
“…….”
“…dream?”
Everyone is in a dazed state as if they are dreaming. That's right, everything I just experienced in the ruins of Tamuto Jungle was unfamiliar and difficult..
The seed that created the continent lies dormant in the bodies of the twin knights and must be brought back someday. Facts that if you had heard this from someone yesterday, you would have waved your hands saying it was nonsense..
However, Kang Seol, who had glimpsed Karuna's fragmentary memories, had a faint feeling that all of this may be an exaggeration, but it was close to the truth..
‘Probably two more.’
Karen and Karuna's expressions were cold..
“What a strange day..”
The Black Knight said, looking into the distance. I had forgotten, but the Black Knight and Snowfall and his party were enemies, and now that they have escaped from the ruins, their relationship has become even more ambiguous..
Seueuugh…
A situation that naturally surrounds the Black Knight..
“What are you going to do by knocking me out??”
Karen said with a frown..
“you… You're Karuna's other half.!”
“It certainly is. But now we're on different paths.”
“then….”
“If we all take different paths but become one, will we truly become one??”
“that….”
This time the black knight turns his attention to Karuna..
“You and I, if one of us has to break our will... Is that moment really now??”
“…….”
“I will do my best to achieve my aspirations. The same goes for you too..”
Now that the atmosphere was becoming ambiguous for a battle, Snowfall asked the Black Knight..
“Why are you giving strength to immortals??”
“Shiloi is strong. If I were to choose the strongest person in this land, she would be the only one..”
“…….”
Kang Seol also agreed with that part..
Of the 10 legendary horses, she is the only one whose whereabouts have been identified, and she is still continuing her dangerous steps with legendary inaction..
“The answer is because she is the only one who can answer my questions..”
“of… door?”
The Black Knight turned his attention to Karen and Karuna..
“Montra… Empire of the Sun. Have you ever felt something strange??”
“…what?”
“The mighty empire was destroyed overnight. Not only that, but even the traces disappeared. no one… No one… don't remember the empire.”
“That's Liona and the band of usurpers….”
“So where is the usurper now??”
“that….”
Neither Karen nor Karuna could answer this. No, I didn't want to answer. I'm afraid I'll get closer to an ominous fact..
“After finding myself, I followed Montra's traces. I believe that history will remain everywhere..”
“…….”
“does not exist. Erased from the world. Montra disappeared that day. As if I wanted it to disappear.”
“you… What are you trying to say?.”
“Karen. The day the sun fell, did you see?”
“what are you talking about!”
“With the guardians of the imperial family.”
The day when the ecliptic caught fire.
- lane inspiration!
- Karen! be careful! There's a traitor among the guardians!
“clearly… We ran into each other.”
“…and?”
“…didn't see it.”
“…….”
three silent knights.
Karen's hands were shaking..
The scent rising from within her.
It smells like doubt..
“no way….”
“stop.”
Karuna blocked the conversation between the Black Knight and Karen..
“It's speculation.”
“I think it's a questionable suspicion..”
“so… what do you want?”
“…I just want to hear the answer. About having no place to return to.”
“To whom!”
The Black Knight answers.
“jin.”
“…you.”
“Well then, see you again.”
Piiiiiiit-!
The Black Knight turned his back and quickly widened the distance and left..
Karen joked for no reason..
“Kahaha! I should have just hit him dead..”
“…I agree. I'm regretting it.”
“ruler… So, where should we go now?.”
Snowfall looked up at the sky and answered.
“well… Where do I head now?.”
“…You're going?”
Kangseol looked at Karen and smiled..
* * *
2Years ago, the central continent of Pandea was shaken by war..
It is due to one incident that coincided with a disaster..
Trolls, the primal beings that control their blood have awakened..
The tribal alliance used its power to quickly expand its power and push out other races and monsters in the central continent..
And now, trolls have taken hegemony over the central continent. It is at its strongest in history since the birth of trolls..
Compared to when the six original gods existed unharmed and the six great tribes under them held firm..
If things continue like this, they might become the owners of the new era..
If only it solved one problem.
“Honestly, I don't know if this is the right thing to do..”
“So do i.”
“Stop, shut your mouths.”
“Even a cup… A pale guy… The dead Magra will wake up immediately when they see your burnt manners..”
“Tsk tsk… He probably scolded me loudly. However, I don't know if it's because of courtesy..”
“Hehehe….”
Zando was a troll who was deeply involved in the series of events that occurred at Yognathun Volcano..
A tribe that worships the fire monkey Purga, the original god of sulfur..
Chieftain of the Brimstone Skull.
“but… I really didn't know you would make this choice.”
“The choice is... I haven't done it yet. It's a process of finding my own answer. That's why I came to this stone mountain where there was nothing..”
“Tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk….”
“Are you okay? We, the elders, are like an island far away, but you are the one who leads the tribe..”
“…Whether it's okay or not is up to those who come here today..”
“…You're late.”
Whioooooooooooo…
The Wind Blows.
Everyone's eyes follow the wind as if possessed by a ghost..
“You've come to the right place..”
A sound remains where the wind passes by.
“…Yes.”
Yes.
warrior of the gust of wind.
The last survivor of the Reed Wind tribe, whose entire tribe was uprooted due to a bad incident..
He was the youngest person to be elected to the Council of Elders, but he was also an unfortunate person who had no choice but to watch the destruction of his tribe..
He was known to wander the world after leaving the Presbyterian Church, but he appeared here..
“I know you are not in a position to run errands for anyone, but... Was it my mistake??”
“…….”
Hane, who must have been bothered by Zando's words, tried to reach for the sword at his waist, but smiled and responded..
“It's up to you to run errands.”
“…The others?”
“Because I walk particularly fast. probably arrive soon….”
Huuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu…
The atmosphere in the area vibrated..
Those who approach without hiding their energy.
“…Umm.”
A group appeared with loud laughter..
“Nice to meet you! Elders! Everyone's not dead yet.!”
Ungola of the Black Thunder.
and his forces.
And next to it, Glacier Maw, who recently formed the largest independent force..
Lastly, the leader, Bron of the Great Sea,.
“I'm sorry! I know you're busy, but I thought we could at least talk to each other.!”
“…Bron.”
There was only one person here who remembered Bronn from the past, and most people heard about his existence only as a legend..
It's the same for glasses too.
“…Is it negotiation?.”
“Negotiation, that's a good word. Even a cup… Did you say?”
“okay.”
“Hmm… Still, I'm dozens more than you... Let’s see… How many generations older are you?….”
“I came here to show off my old body.?”
“No, no. ha ha ha! only….”
Bronn stuck his head in front of Zando's nose. The look in the eyes of the person who crossed his line of fire froze Jando..
“I regret that if I had known you were this arrogant, I would have supported the side that wanted to kill you..”
“…….”
“Well, now I’m here to talk about good things! Let's move on from the trivial.”
He led the meeting..
By far, the topic that became a hot topic was the Daewonsin Festival..
“The purpose of this Daewon Shinje is... It's for restoring the blood body to its integrity.?”
“…….”
“also… I was reluctant from the moment of the general mobilization order.….”
“Didn't you have any intention of joining the alliance anyway??”
“hmm… Who is it? The person who led this?”
“…….”
“Purganya? Ambika?”
The elders hesitated to answer, but Jando answered calmly..
“both.”
“…….”
“Wonsin is displeased with his diminished power and influence. Originally, we would not have chosen drastic measures that required large-scale sacrifices such as general mobilization and the Great Wonshin Festival.….”
He said why things happened like this.
“Jamard, it's all because of him. Guamong's death makes them anxious..”
“ha ha ha! also. After cutting out the three original gods during the festival of blood, one of the remaining three is reduced, so he gets scared.!”
“Refrain from speaking! Wonshin….”
“…Does everyone agree with this move??”
The Presbyterian Church hesitated..
It's also a glass.
“This pathetic plan to give everything away, not just surrender to those who had everything from the moment of birth... Do you agree?!”
“…There is confusion inside too..”
“under… also.”
“but… There is no choice but to enforce the Daewonshin system..”
Jando gritted his teeth and said.
“this person… There is no way! Genshin's power is great! Even if we fight against each other….”
“…even if?”
“…the majority will die.”
“aha….”
Hahahaha-!
Ungola smiled and asked back..
“so?”
“…what?”
“What does that mean??”
“Purga and Ambika are alive and well. And after that….”
“so?”
“…….”
“There are a lot of excuses for not fighting..”
“…Could you choose another way??”
“I have grand plans!”
“…Let me listen.”
Bronn grinned..
“fight!”
“…….”
“Great plan.?”
“…I wasted my time.”
“It doesn’t matter if everyone dies! No, we'll probably all die if you stop us..”
“…….”
“But if you help us….”
The council of elders waited for Zando’s words..
Jando took a deep breath and said.
“The odds of winning are?”
“Now we can finally talk. There is, obviously.”
“Specifically.”
“Be specific... hmm….”
ugh ugh ugh…
The rocky mountain shook..
The territory of the mountain they stepped on, right next to it, split apart and created a crack..
And the crack spit out a sound.
“glass… do….”
Zando and the elders retreated in horror..
“Oh, no way... this mountain….”
slurp…
The corners of the hills were similarly torn apart to create snow..
What's carved into the mountain is someone's facial features..
“long-time… It's a bay….”
“…jamard!”
dddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddd-!
Jamard, the one who felled the mountain, rose up..
Grand.
Pressure weighs on my chest.
dump…
Zando bowed to him who had obtained the mighty power of Yuanshin..
“iced coffee… ah….”
The Blood Festival Returns.
