The one who wakes up (1)
“Ahh!!”
It screams desperately and runs at full speed. Magical energy rotates like crazy throughout the body, adding strength to the tip of the foot.
Zaun’s body accelerated to great speed and began to catch up with Lennok in an instant.
Zaun chases after Lennok, who runs ahead, and Maya runs the furthest from the back.
However, Lennok, who is closest to the gate, is infinitely slow, and Maya is the fastest.
That fleeting moment between the two of them, catching up with Lennok and being caught up by Maya.
‘... ... for a moment.’
A question popped into Zaun’s mind.
So where did that giant arrow he rode go?
[Run!!]
Whoa!!
No answer was needed.
A huge carapace that had been shot down from the sky upside down landed on Maya’s head as she began to catch up with Zaun.
Its weight was unimaginable for a long arrow.
Maya’s body, which was lightly trying to catch it with one arm, slammed into the lower leg and let out a roar.
Kwaaaaang!!
“Ugh... ... !!”
As the support at the bottom of the bridge caved in, Maiya, who was crushed by the carapace, gritted her teeth.
There was no way that a spear thrown miraculously into the air hit Maya.
She too was aware that all of this was arranged by the wizard running ahead of her.
“Evan... ... !!”
The figure of Maiya, who looked up at Lennok with eerie eyes and straightened her staggered body.
Already, she too is not in good condition due to the backlash that came after fighting and forcing Balak away.
Her exhausted body had exhausted her mana without being able to properly rest in the labyrinth.
Even her skills and condition, which had declined after coming down from the position of executor.
However, leaving behind all the excuses holding her ankle, Maya also gets up from her seat.
It’s not too late.
The light that leaked through the gaps in the dimly opened gate did not yet belong to Lennok.
“Damn it... ... !”
Lennok clicked his tongue faintly as he glanced back and realized that Zaun was not right and that Maya had stood up.
If possible, he wanted to shoot down Zaun at once, but he had no choice but to be content with tying the feet of Maya, who had the most mobility, at this spot, even for a short time.
A chronic lack of motivation. There really isn’t much horsepower left now.
With the gate open dozens of meters ahead, Lennok had only one choice.
Lennok turned his head and started running towards the gate.
Woooooo!!
Prepared for the side effects of mana addiction, strengthening the entire body with magical power.
Ignoring the burning pain in my feet, I bent my knees.
I start to run faster, but I can’t help but be caught up by Zaun.
Because the ability of the body itself is too poor, the efficiency of strengthening the body due to magical power does not come out easily.
’30 meters to the gate... ... !’
Can we reach the gateway first while maintaining our current advantage?
No matter how much I thought about it, Evelyn, not Lennok, would have been more suitable for this kind of work.
Even at this moment when I run out of breath, many thoughts pass through my head, but my legs do not stop.
“Evaaaaaan!!”
From Zaun constantly calling out Lennok from behind, and Maya running from behind with a terrifying expression.
Stopping here wasn’t just about falling behind in the race.
To give meaning to all the time I struggled to reach the end of this labyrinth.
In order to seize the opportunity that Evelyn gave her in the end.
Lennok gritted his teeth and ran.
“Ha-ha-ha-ha... ... !!”
My whole body felt hot as if it were on fire, and my chest felt tight as if I was being strangled.
I was panting so much that I couldn’t even breathe properly, and the raindrops of sweat continued to cover my eyes.
Every time I drive myself to the end of such intense pain, I remember the moment I first woke up in the factory.
That day when I couldn’t confirm or guarantee any future or possibility.
That moment when he blindly stole a car and escaped the factory without knowing anything.
It is no different from that moment or now.
Lennok was always ready to answer questions, risking everything to hold on to a better future.
It doesn’t matter if what awaits beyond this door isn’t a transcendent who knows all the answers.
We know that maintaining such a life attitude is more important than thousands of talents and ten thousand talents.
I just hope that I will get an answer before all this time of longing and wishing is over.
On the verge of losing even my thoughts and losing my thoughts. But the body continues to move.
can run more
Three people running at different speeds in front of a pure white gateway connecting heaven and earth.
The three new types, who are completely different in terms of reason and process, disappear into the gateway almost simultaneously.
Clap!!
Right after that, the door of the gateway, which had been dimly opened, remained closed, as if time had stopped.
He sighed deeply and said, creating waves of gravity in his hands.
“hey... ... . To be honest, I don’t want to pretend to be with an agent. I know very well that an archer like you can be very annoying if you decide.”
“so?”
“So, I’d like you to get out of the way. Shouldn’t I also make sure that my ally passed through the gate safely?”
Balak muttered as he slowly stepped forward.
“I’d like to see if I can go inside ahead of time.”
As long as the three of them entered the gate first, the chance to confirm whether Jindun was alive or not and talk with him disappeared.
However, if he could get into the cradle even at a later date, wouldn’t he be able to get his hands on an unowned artifact or gift from there?
All those gathered in this labyrinth were desperate enough to risk their lives for such a glimmer of hope.
Evelyn laughed at those words that were close to threats.
“okay. Do it if you can.”
“thanks... ... .”
Piing!!
A black flash of light pierced the eyebrows of the attendant standing right next to Balak.
It was so fast I couldn’t even see it properly.
Balak laughed as he rolled his eyes and checked the arrow shaft that had hit the head of the collapsing attendant.
“Don’t do this. Not very funny. If you keep coming up like that, I’ll tell you too... ... You have no choice but to kill me?”
Evelyn also laughed.
“I’m sorry, but it’s also an important moment for my partner. I can’t let that get in the way.”
“... ... .”
Kirik!!
Iveline, who had counted the number of arrows remaining while tying her waist, slowly drew the string.
“Come on. I will play with you until that door opens again.”
* * *
“... ... .”
“Aris, what’s going on?”
“No, nothing.”
A vast library full of old books.
Aris, who was sitting in the seat where sunlight streamed in through the window frame, turned her head at the voice calling her.
“You remember that you have to attend the Terrama Conference in half a day, right?”
“Yes, of course.”
“I will go first, so prepare in advance. There are many people who are curious about the papers you published one after another in Balkan.”
“... ... .”
Aris secretly frowned at the words of the Mage Tower elder, who talked as if they were having a fun party.
Although I had spoken up first for her purpose, I began to feel that it was meaningless to attend conferences and show my face.
Instead, she tried to distract herself from the powerful sense of déjà vu that had just flowed through her images.
“Lenok... ... .”
Someone’s name leaked faintly.
It’s not just because I miss you and miss you.
This is because the presence of someone who had clearly existed until just now had suddenly faded.
The answer Aris chose was not a turning point that would normally complete only herself.
A scene that is truly complete only when there is someone else’s presence and will, not just her alone.
That’s why Aris was able to clearly recognize the ambiguous state approaching Lennok’s absence.
The very ambiguous situation of Lennok, who is alive but whose existence cannot be confirmed.
“... ... .”
She gazed out the window with a confused expression, then silently lowered her eyes to the book she was holding.
It is foolish to spend a long time on things that are out of reach.
That’s why I came all the way back here to create a way to reach people I can’t reach.
What she had to do now was decided.
Afternoon in the library dusty.
Only the sound of the paper being turned over rang for a long time.
* * *
Lennok opened his eyes with a violent knock on his head.
As soon as I open my eyes, the first thing I feel is an unknown liquid coming through my nose.
He immediately raised himself up, but lost his balance and plunged his head downward again.
Cudangtang!!
“Huh... ... !!”
slobber slobber!!
The sound of water rushing into my ears, the damp liquid filling my face.
“haha... ... !!”
Lennok, who came to his senses belatedly, raised his head.
“here is... ... ?”
A space filled with pure white light.
Calm water flows continuously beneath his feet, soaking Lennok’s body.
It was only when I stumbled to my feet that I realized that it was water running up to my ankles.
A vast, endless space. In a space filled with pure white light, a calm waterway continues to flow somewhere.
