Chapter 220: With my own two eyes
Command.
Not Hoyeol. But Holyeong(command).
To be precise, the ethereal iron was commanding Zero Mountain.
I held and swung the ethereal iron with my hand.
If you ask me, why am I speaking of it as if it was other peoples sword?
Uhaha! Great, jump harder. Wilder!
It was because I was terribly ashamed to say that it was my sword.
Every time I swung, it spoke.
If I were to post a question to the community.
Are all ego equipment this talkative?
Then this answer would come up.
Ego equipment? Where in the world does such a thing exist
What did that statement mean?
In the end, it was a problem that couldnt be solved.
Couldnt I just ask the ethereal iron to shut up?
I wanted to do that too.
But I couldnt.
A wildness that never gave up until the end. It was quite honorable.
This damn mouth!
As you can see, the emotion between Grandfel and ethereal iron was just like a match made in heaven. Thanks to this, the only person suffering was me, Lee Hoyeol, who was suffering from both sides.
But lets think positively.
Its better than before.
When I had just woken up as a player.
Compared to the time when I was talking about etiquette training to gnolls.
Now, even if someone caught me like this, I had an excuse to protect myself.
Well, the mob I just killed was a level-700 monster.
[Name: Grandfel Claudie Arpheus Romeo]
[Title: The Last Adventurer, Noble, Transcendent]
[Class: Demon Hunter]
[Level: 601]
[Stat]
Strength: 141 / Agility: 139 / Mana: 517 / Luck: 12 / Aesthetic: Upper / Tenacity: 2
[Point owned: 0]
My additional daily routine.
It had been four days since I had been steadily hunting monsters in the Zero Mountain. Thanks to this, I broke through the level 600 barrier and rose one additional level. But the important thing was not the level.
Fundamental ability over level.
How much had I improved my abilities?
I started to focus more on that.
In that regard, I had been making some progress in my own way.
First of all, I avoided usingmagicas much as possible while dealing with monsters.
It was a collapse of balance for me, wasnt it?
The effect of the circle amplified the manifestation power of my magic. Hunting monsters with magic that had already reached a transcendental level only served to fill up experience points pointlessly.
Efficiency is what matters in everything.
Like the tea time in the afternoon
No, no, not that.
It was like gold.
Additionally, experience points could be obtained from the Arcana Continent and the Qirnberg Machine Tower. As expected, legacy was the best.
Thanks to this, from now on, hunting in the reality couldnt be limited to simply gaining experience points.
Sk
Of course, in my efforts to refine the incomplete sword technique.
As well as my shooting technique using the crossbow.
In literally many ways.
Befitting of a demon hunter.
My focus was on developing my fundamental capabilities.
Because theres a possibility it could develop into oddity.
Of course.
If the players learned of this training method, they would be shocked.
They probably would say that it was nothing but just some hardship.
Then I would answer.
Sometimes you have to walk slowly to see things.
No, you dont have to answer it in such a romantic way
Youre absolutely correct, my lord.
Dont just go along with it, ethereal iron.
Anyway, I brought up my biggest accomplishment from these four days.
Haiel and Diend.
For the first time in a while, I was able to properly understand the strengths of those two at a given time.
I opened my mouth.
Haiel, Diend.
Haiel has answered Masters call.
Did you call, my lord?
Well, there is a saying that if you meet your doppelganger, you will die.
Haiel, Diend, and ethereal iron.
I faced three different doppelgangers.
I was already feeling dizzy, but lets bear with it.
First of all, Diend is just as I expected.
I never confirmed Diends power with my own eyes, but I had a rough guess of his strength.
Diend was a dark spirit who had made Fire Drake, the contract spirit of Senior Mage of Spirit School Peiyan, nervous since the first time he appeared. Even if that wasnt the case, I expected him to be a high-level spirit.
But I overlooked Haiel.
I would admit, it was due to prejudice.
I knew Haiels past. So I unconsciously overlooked her. Haiel would still be as glamorous as she was in the predators swamp.
Haiel can stop an elf.
Haiel was clearly a unique spirit and a being who received the [Blessing of the First World Tree] along with me.
Even if her {nature} abilities were not specialized for combat, she was not an entity that could be overcome by ordinary monsters.
The proof of it was visible.
All the beast-type monsters were bowing down to Haiel! These monsters were not meek.
They were herbivore animals that could suffocate wild beast [Warmonger Reindeer] even if they were belligerent.
To put it simply
Youve learned something too, Haiel.
Perhaps because she took after someone, it would be fair to call her an instructor.
Looking at her like that, I slowly understood.
Why the archmages in the pointed hat cowered because of me.
I think I could say that I know the reason.
In fact, I was also surprised.
Haiel, the spirit chosen by the first World Tree.
Ethereal iron, who overwhelmed the Sword Saint.
And Diend.
Even if they looked up at me meaninglessly.
What if there was someone who could handle all these three at once?
The fact alone was shocking.
In that regard, I felt more reassured.
I should have nothing to fear in this world.
But at this moment, my mind was not at peace.
I preached Masters theory of manner to the animals in the forest.
Was it because of Haiel, who knew what to do without having me say it anymore?
I will also follow suit, my lord.
If not that, was it because of Diend, who learned from watching her attitude?
Indeed!
Or was it because of the ethereal irons admiration for the strange scenery?
Yes, normally.
That alone would have caused me to complain of mental pain.
But in my head right now.
I was thinking that such things were trivial.
Yeah.
It was because of the story Skal told me.
To be precise, it was because of the news about the great family.
[Class quest: Summoning All Dragons]
The old dragon shouted.
The great family has returned to the Arcana Continent.
Every dragon wants to find out the truth of the case.
Witness the dragons gathering on the continent. (Select)
Skal shared the dragon knight class quest with me.
The moment I saw it.
My eyesight became dizzy.
The great family.
There was a setting that overlapped with that word.
He was the heir to a great family, but that family was ruined by the demons.
The only survivor of the family, Grandfel Claudie Arpheus Romeo, hereinafter referred to as Grandfel, walked the path of a demon hunter to take revenge on the demons.
Why, out of all the many monikers in the world.
It had to be the great family?!
I thought calmly with my common sense as much as I could.
Claudie.
Just like Grandfel.
It was a fictional family I created when I suffered from a middle-school second-year syndrome.
It couldnt exist in the Arcana Continent.
It must be another family.
Furthermore, the great family was back?
At least I am still hiding my past and my name.
I struggled to control my inner feelings.
Still, I couldnt feel relieved.
I could still feel it.
The setting of Grandfel that took all the good stuff and put them all together!
Of course, the scale is different.
Lets see
I vaguely recalled Claudies setting.
At that time, I, who was a bit crooked, even used the monicker great.
To put it simply.
Comparable to Grandfel.
It was a setting that was full of embarrassing things.
Really, one in a million chance.
What if those settings come true?
What if there were any traces of Claudie on the Arcana Continent?
I could guarantee.
At least I wouldnt be able to live with my head up on the Arcana Continent.
So I shouldnt let it happen.
Why?
[Grandfel Claudie Arpheus Romeo]
I named this damn thing.
Of course, only in the Arcana Continent.
I would never reveal it to the reality.
Especially on days when my nemesis finds out!
So, I declared to Skal.
I wont believe it until I see it with my own eyes.
Even though it wasnt my intention.
I ended up spitting out harsh words.
I felt sorry for Skal, but I hoped he could understand.
This is a matter of life and (social) death!
*
Since the creation of the AAU Yusra branch.
There were more active exchanges between the branches.
Not just the branch heads but also between the employees.
That meant their exchanges became more frequent than ever before.
Yoon Sookyum lightly waved to the camera.
Hey, how long has it been since I last saw your face?
How are you, Tom? Katrina is still the same.
You havent contacted me even once, but now you want us to shake hands.
Hey, you know who our boss is.
Youre probably dying under Mr. Park, arent you?
AAUs Korean branch head, Park Minjae.
Having confronted CEO Raymond Sean.
He was a legendary figure in many ways.
His rebellious temperament had been known to all branches since AAUs days of Cosmo. Tom and Katrina had expressed condolences upon hearing the news that Park Minjae had been appointed as a branch manager and Yoon Sookyums boss.
Still, I am jealous sometimes.
Are you crazy? Youre jealous of me? Why?
Youre probably close to Player Lee Hoyeol.
I agree.
When Hoyeols name was mentioned, Katrina put her face to the camera.
Yoon Sookyum probably had a closer relationship with Hoyeol than they did.
Katrina continued enthusiastically.
There must be a point of contact or exchanges between you! So what is it? What is the information about General Manager Yusra Lee Hoyeol that only the Korean branch knows? Ill keep it confidential. If I have to, Ill take Tom out of here too.
She asked him after saying something like that?
They were wasting their time.
Yoon Sookyum shook his head.
Do you know what pride is?
Pride? I know what it is. Its something General Manager Lee Hoyeol likes to say.
Yeah, would someone like that give a special treatment?
Oh
The two people understood at once.
Well, considering Hoyeols moves so far
Hoyeol didnt discriminate.
Even small sacrifices for the greater good were not tolerated.
Hoyeol was fair.
So three people who had wasted their energy soon got straight to the point.
So youre trying to bring back old memories, right?
Thats right. The memories when we were putting the story together.
Im sorry for derailing you. Does it have any meaning?
Tom, please. If youre going to be sorry, dont say anything.
Katrina, hit him.
As the three of them bickered, he felt like he had gone back to those days.
But he couldnt just laugh.
He couldnt go back to those days.
Tom, who was smoothing out his side that got hit, opened his mouth.
First of all, lets admit what we have to admit and begin from there. Perhaps Arcana has been out of our control from the moment when it was a game. Lets go with that premise.
Agreed.
Okay. Well, only Raymond knows the answer.
Tom was pessimistic about everything, but he was good at what he did.
If you think of it like that, you will be scared of the many mountains you will have to climb in the future. Well, wasnt the Arcana Continent still quite peaceful before the demons appeared?
I guess you can say that. There were major events like the Imperial War, but compared to this Holy War, they were nothing more than childs play. So what do you want to say, Tom?
The point is simple.
And he was sharp.
That there must have been a reason for that peace.
There was a reason for the long peace?
Are you saying it wasnt just because the demons were updated that it became a mess?
Tom shrugged his shoulders.
We laid down the premise, didnt we? Everything existed from the beginning. There was a setting background that we didnt know about from the beginning. The Mage Tower would be a good example of it.
The reason demons didnt appear wasnt because of the setting
There was some kind of situation that wasnt revealed like the absence of the Tower Master?
Thats right. In other words.
Click clack
A line of text that appeared when Tom hit the keyboard.
[There was a reason for the peace on the Arcana continent.]
And he added.
And there is a reason why that peace was broken.
.
.
.
Social gathering of time and space.
Black hair.
The eastern sky where the sun rose first.
The Warrior of Sunrise who came from that place lacked knowledge about the Arcana Continent. It was thanks to the Demon Worlds tectonic shift that he was able to set foot on Arcana in the first place.
Naturally, he was ignorant.
Youre brave. You mentioned that name.
The Warrior of Sunrise nodded at the words of a transcendent.
Witch of the Southern Sea.
He couldnt forget her reaction.
It was hard to believe she could make that kind of face.
He had seen her at the social gathering.
She was clearly different from that helpless figure.
So, he was naturally curious.
What on earth was that name
But the Warrior of Sunrise couldnt say anything.
From the second coming of the legend to the subjugation of the great evil.
Even that incident that was reported to your hometown.
Warrior from the East, can you believe it?
There was a family behind the whole affair.
Yes, its Claudie.
Because of Claudie, the continent had been able to maintain peace.
Because Claudie disappeared, the continent became like this.
!!!
That past was so shocking that it left him speechless.
