31The second word overturns the game board (Episode 554)
Where are the continent’s most important issues decided??
This question has been a quite interesting topic for luxury enthusiasts and people who like to line up..
A person who said that since Zodiac was founded, it could only be an academic society for great wizards..
A person who says that it was the federal Castrang Railway Planning Conference where astronomical amounts of capital were gathered. A person who says that it might be some kind of secret conversation from the distant past that humans do not know about..
And, people who are different in each era.
This is a topic that everyone has different opinions on..
However, after the war that broke out with the resurrection of the cursed empire in the very center of the continent, everyone pointed to one place without disagreement..
That place is the palace of Khan’s Dragon Emperor..
Now, here, there were so many diverse and extraordinary people that the word ‘all walks of life’ is not enough..
“Then, the eleventh and second Dragon Emperor Conference begins.….”
They are ordinary people who gathered together for a trivial reason..
After the mysterious great empire called Montra was resurrected, all of Pandea fell into great chaos..
Before the chaos could be resolved, the resurrected dead started a war against all countries and all powers and committed ruthless violence..
A small country had to face destruction overnight and could not even be taken prisoner..
The army of death killed all life that was defeated by them. They trampled the land and turned it into a wasteland. There wasn't much to know other than that they just did it like they had to do it..
Only Khan, the Great Empire of the East, was able to effectively block this army of death, and everyone wanted to come into the shadow of the giant..
“Umm….”
“Whoa whoa….”
A meeting filled with uncomfortable groans and sighs. A story that started a long time ago but never progressed.
I wonder why there was silence, because anyway, only things that were uncomfortable to say out loud had to be exchanged..
“Communication with the Kingdom of Chrysium has been lost since midnight..”
“Libra, how do you see??”
Taeyul, one of the three kings of Khan, opened his mouth..
“The wizard dispatched to Chrysium is an old wizard with a history of holding a status in the past. You're not the kind of person who would accidentally miss a magical communication that should take place on a regular basis..”
A man with slanted eyes muttered next to him..
“It's a fall... It's obvious, didn't we all know the signs? There must have been a feeling that their army was approaching Chrysium.….”
“…I guess the most convincing reasoning is this..”
“Hehehe… What is everyone doing? Should we just open our eyes and watch what happens! King of Khan! tell me!”
Shinyo answered calmly..
“We are experiencing countless instances of small kingdoms being erased from the map. Khan is strong, but not invincible, and his enemies are strong. It was certain that Chrysium would fall before Khan's relief forces could reach it..”
“Does that mean you’re just going to sit back and do nothing? In the past, when he reigned as the loser of the continent,….”
“Khan is the last bastion of civilization and reason. Who will bear the disaster that wrong judgment will bring??”
“that….”
“We have already experienced failure once. The next move requires being cunning like a fox and brave like a wolf. We can't fail anymore.”
The king of a kingdom fell silent by Montra..
Xinyao lost his expression after hearing the news of Jangdu's death. The expression frozen would be appropriate..
“…Rest in peace, people of Chrysium..”
In moments of despair, those who pray are bound to arise..
There were a few people who quietly closed their eyes and mourned the end..
“In fact, anywhere except Cannes. The storm of death has swept over all the lands, and there is no way to withstand it..”
The woman who leads the largest mercenary group on the continent spoke. She wasn't suited for this position, but since she had the power, at least she had a better say than the fallen king who just made a fuss..
“At least in the early stages of the war, the quick judgment of Baranoa and the nearby kingdoms that escaped through the sea route was remarkable. It's nothing short of a miracle, the sea route is also blocked now..”
After Chameli ascended to the throne, the western neighboring kingdoms, which had formed a close alliance with Baranoa, came together immediately after the outbreak of war and came up with a solution..
Chameli's wisest ally, Griz, has devised a plan..
Everyone remembered that the plan was ridiculously violent..
Not only did he issue a general mobilization order for all ships, but he also stole ships abandoned in good condition from the fallen kingdom at the beginning of the war..
As if that wasn't enough, he concentrated all of the country's capabilities to quickly build ships capable of transporting as many people as possible, and as if this wasn't enough, he coaxed pirates who had not yet fully grasped the situation into cooperation..
Of course, many people still died.
In particular, many heroes sacrificed their lives to stop Montra's advance, which began just before launching the ship into the sea..
grizz said.
“Hmm… It would have been better if I had come up with a brilliant idea to wipe them out, but I didn't have time at the time. That's such a pity!”
Jiying…
Sophia, standing behind him, nodded. Sophia was careful that whatever Griz said was always correct..
Sooooo…
Whoa whoa…
The general who exiled himself from the Kingdom of Cush sighed and said,.
“Who would believe that in just half a year, the world is at a crossroads of existence?.”
“After the army of death came... Everything is a mess.”
“Montrara….”
Except for the eastern part of Pandea, everything was in ruins..
Even that wasn't all human territory. Of course, Khan managed to absorb the southern kingdoms, but a new ogre kingdom was established above, and the Troll Tribal Confederation also disappeared, making them uneasy..
It was not that humanity had never resisted the army of death..
The allied forces led by Khan's army had entered the war with the intention of breaking the heart of Montra..
With their first counterattack, they succeeded in advancing to the heart of Montra. The number of dead was high and the level was by no means low, but that was the same for the Allied Forces at the time..
However, the spear broke when a man blocked the tip..
“Still haven't figured out who that guy is??”
“How can we know when Montra existed in the first place??”
“Everything went wrong because of him….”
At that time, there was a battle that completely shattered the established idea that war was a battle of numbers..
Someone asked Libra Frannan.
“Isn’t his inaction overrated??”
“Um, don't you know about the great wizard named Niruko??”
“As you know, he is the owner of Taurus. I know she was the one who fought that guy. I mean, that's the power of the Archmage..”
“You're doubting Niruko's power. If that old woman had heard, your face would have been sunken right now, but what can you do... If you're angry, you shouldn't have lost..”
Frannan stroked the teacup..
“Niruko was born with frighteningly strong magical power. Her organs… Do you know what the magic of Taurus is??”
“…I know it's martial arts.”
“Yes, Niruko was special among them. It was the real of the real that could be adjusted without converting the magical power itself. That was also why she was considered a master of magic. She decided that if anyone but me was going to go to war, it should be her..”
He took a breath and explained calmly..
“In general, Taurus wizards have one habit. No, it should be said to be an educational policy since it is taught that way from the beginning..”
“habit?”
“They are stronger in defense than offense. I really hate getting hurt. The magic barrier they created during the battle was so strong that normal strength could not pierce it. Because it is harder than steel of the same thickness. The rumors that the Taurus wizard died by being stabbed to death are all nonsense, so you can ignore them. however… That Taurus extremely strong wizard.”
Niruko faced a man wearing full body armor..
and…
“He was crushed to death. To that person. The man who carried it didn't even remove the black decoration..”
“…….”
“Even if I had been there, the result would have been the same. He's a monster we must face.”
Everyone knew what happened next.
The only person stronger than Niruko was Frannan, and unfortunately he was not there..
From then on, the massacre began.
An order to withdraw troops was issued, but the ambushed enemies inflicted a heavy blow on the Allied forces and the counterattack ultimately failed..
Libra said.
“There is only one chance left, and it is just one step away from the extinction of humanity. There is no option to avoid or hide. There is no choice but to destroy that terrible desert. … How long can the barrier last??”
Taeyul answered.
“Next 2 months. I can't hold on after that..”
“It's time... . This is not a war that can be won just by having enough numbers. We have no information about their hidden power..”
“There is not enough strong people... . What about you? If it's you….”
“No matter how much I think about it, I can't imagine a situation where I can beat him..”
“can't imagine?”
“If you imagine it, it's magic that will eventually make it happen. In that sense, I can't imagine myself beating him..”
It meant that the probability of the result being drawn was close to or equal to 0..
Seolhong asked a question to the man sitting next to her..
“Chiwoo.”
“…….”
“Chiwoo.”
“Ahhh….”
Chiu was depressed after Gorgozia. Anyone who went would have faced the same situation, but it is still painful to realize one's helplessness..
“The wizard and the dragon?”
“…There's no news.”
wizard and dragon.
They refer to Ur and Tansia, respectively. The reason I ask Chiu about their whereabouts is because he was the last person to encounter them..
“If they come back even now... I guess I can have some expectations.….”
Many people expressed their opinions on Seolhong’s words..
“Could it be that he ran away??”
“Where are you running now??”
Chiwoo shook his head..
“It didn't feel that way... only….”
- Time line collapse... That's absurd. This is not a phenomenon that was forced. As if it was inevitable, I was prepared..
the wizard said.
- I need to find out, maybe I'm missing something more important than this war.
The wizard who disappeared on a dragon never came back.
“ha ha ha! It's the end, it's the end!”
“refrain from speaking!”
“Should I sew my mouth shut? Nothing will change if you just ignore reality! We lost! You already lost before you even fought! The expedition corps is annihilated, the allied forces are destroyed, and things are happening as prophesied. The land will turn into sand, and not only will our food supply disappear, but soon even drinking water will disappear..”
“stop….”
“The strong man we had the least hope for left behind a corpse and ran away? If something that's been sleeping for half a year isn't a corpse, then what is it? Is this the hope you are talking about? This is you….”
Quaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa-!
Someone slammed the table in indignation.
Blood flowed from my tightly clenched fist..
It was snow red.
“Don't call my friend a corpse.”
Seolhong is a person famous for his kindness. If she got this far, it won't end well for her next time..
The other party also calmed down his excitement and said.
“I said too much. I apologize. That's a bad situation….”
ta da da dat-!
Someone running fast and noisily enough to make a Daejeon sound..
There are rules here.
No one was allowed to run in Daejeon..
The moment urgency arises in this place, which can be said to be humanity's last bastion, everything could collapse..
Nevertheless, if someone runs, it will not be because of painful or difficult work..
Seolhong instinctively turned around..
Jump up! The door opens.
“omg… omg! Seolhong! Seolhong!”
Seolhong ran to Jinryeo, forgetting about his body pain. Jinri sometimes acts stupid, but she is not an idiot..
Seolhong knows that..
“…Jinryeo!”
“yes!”
Jinryeo nodded..
* * *
A black world overtakes me..
“Ugh… Ugh… gagging….”
It swelled up and went down my esophagus. So the black world fills the intestines and steals the body..
Don't lose your mind.
I shouldn't forget what I have to do.
Don't lose your mind.
I shouldn't forget what I have to do….
Don't lose your mind.
Don't lose your mind.
Don't lose your mind.
I was in too harsh a situation to remember two sentences..
The body could not be controlled, and the mind contained only one thought..
Why?
why do i have to do that?
Natural doubts enter the mind.
Don't lose your mind.
It's a promise.
Nevertheless, I am stopped by a single thought..
promise? what promise?
Don't lose your mind.
We have a promise.
I promised you, don't lose your mind.
This is also the last bet.
Terrible imagination and painful evil eat away at me..
How is the self born?.
Who am I? what do i do?
where am i and i….
I am…
Don't lose your mind.
single thought.
Only one thought can put even the ego to sleep.
Still, the words promise and bet that crept into that moment form a pillar..
Don't lose your mind.
why? Because it’s a promise and a bet.
'Cause I'm a man of my word, and I like to win the bet.
is it?
am i a person?
Did I keep my promises and have a competitive spirit??
And at the same time, new things were added to the thought supported by the pillar..
Who is the promise to??
Who am I betting with??
who are you.
After my formation, your formation.
Then I felt it.
hand.
It's a hand holding someone's hand.
The black world was cold, but my hands were damn warm.
Oh, I can understand both promises and payments. It was a single thought for this warmth..
With this warmth, I can give everything.
Yes, this hand.
With this, you and I wake up.
And it wakes us up.
we.
“You're awake.”
“…shit.”
“I won the bet.”
“You are defeated. It's shameful!”
“Hehehe….”
“I'm ready?”
“huh.”
Me and you, we exist but we are disappearing.
Now, only their joined hands are their image and will..
“It's moving.”
“Just for a moment, as we wish.”
Geek, Geek, Geek-!
It can never be like that.
It brings about a phenomenon that should never happen..
Quaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa-!
Geek…
Geek…
- Ah, why... me…
A gaping hole in my chest.
The breath that fills up for a moment through it.
But now, there's no going back.
I have to say it.
But how? I can't reach the height!
There is no form, but there is perception..
If you can't get up there, you can't say anything..
Suddenly, height increases.
I had someone underneath put their legs on my shoulders..
“Ugh! That's enough, tell me.”
“sister….”
“hurry! I do not have time!”
Because their hands are also disappearing.
- iced coffee…
father.
- thanks…
Thank you.
It was you.
- we…
we are
- line… did…
I was happy.
- I told you… Daa…

“Kwaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!”

man opening his eyes.
He saw the ceiling and the faces of the two men and women..
both were crying.
“Black… Hmm….”
Seolhong hugged him..
“I'm back... . It came back... . thank god… thank god….”
Half a year of recovery, pain at the end.
It's a new leap forward…
