. One Question One Answer (2)

...what now?

The ruins 'The Tomb of the Antichrist' located on the 15th floor of the tower. Please tell me the route to the 7th room there.

Gawain repeated what he had said calmly.

Antichrist's Tomb.

The 15th floor boss monster 'Wailing Witch' resides.

This is information that everyone who knows up to this point knows, but... .

The problem is that what he's asking for is the 7th room in the ruins.

There are only three castle demons in the tower.

It was a place where the Demon King and Demon Clan could be manifested through the Holy Relics.

'To find this place means to know all the locations of the holy relics.'

or not .

'Are you saying that you have already collected all the minimum necessary relics for manifestation?'

Either way, it meant that the demons who had been quiet for a while were not simply playing and eating.

How do you think I would know where it was?

Don't be naive. We already know that you are a rotten figure beyond our imagination.

Thanks for the compliment, but aren't you overestimating me? You might not really know.

Haha. You're still shivering. However, whether that's true or not is not for me to judge.

If you tell a lie, the scale will just move as it is.

The cogs under Jinhyuk's feet began to vibrate violently.

Now I can't delay replying any longer.

"If you go to the tomb, you will find a room full of stone statues of various monsters."

The Chamber of Confession... you mean?

Yeah. Find a place where the goblin statues are gathered. If you look closely, they have a cross-shaped arrangement.

Having said that, Gawain also realized what Jinhyuk was talking about.

Anti...the tomb of Christ.

upside down cross.

In other words, it meant that the goblin statue should also be rearranged in the same shape.

That way, you'll find the room you want.

Jinhyuk finished his speech, but the scale did not even move.

You told the truth.

I don't have a hobby of being a mousepo.

Jinhyuk shrugged.

These words are sincere.

To die wretchedly was the end far from living a comfortable old age.

And of course.

Giving him the right information was also the same.

'Believing in a unique ability against me... It's the biggest mistake you've ever made.'

Gawain's unique ability 'balance of trust'.

On the surface, it sounds plausible, but in fact, how it works is far from supernatural.

Is it some sort of sophisticated lie detector?

The ability to determine the authenticity of a horse through heart rate, respiration, and body temperature was rather close to that of modern technology.

Of course, knowing that would make it almost impossible to deceive that unique ability.

The human body is not a machine.

How exactly do you control all of that?

However,

It is possible for the deceased.

Because they weren't ordinary people.

'great .'

Jinhyuk was already fully aware of his biorhythms.

pounding! pounding! pounding!

Maintain body temperature by properly mixing 'glacier modeling' and 'element of fire'.

Respiratory volume was controlled by 'shallow breathing'.

He even deceived himself and overlaid the truth in order to lie completely.

So a new truth was created.

Instead of going to the 7th room, the road that leads directly to the room where the Wailing Witch resides.

'Go and try to manifest the Demon King in a hundred days.'

Can that voice even go near the demon world?

On the contrary, you will feel very deeply how the Wailing Witch treats those who come into other people's rooms.

by the way.

I was about to give up copying my abilities to a witch, as I could only achieve the copy condition by making a living sacrifice.

Unexpectedly, the living products rolled in.

'It could be a total one stone two pair.'

At the thought of getting an unexpected performance, the corners of Jinhyuk's lips went up.

Now, are you ready for me to ask a question?

"Ah, yes you tell me."

Tell me how many Grand Masters there are players who changed to 'Black Apostles' within the Mine Association.

...!

On Gawain's face, who continued to smile.

The laughter disappeared in an instant.

There is a saying that gives back and receives with words.

This case is exactly the case for the proverb.

Gawain bit his lip.

'In order to obtain information about the 7th room, we were prepared to hand over some information... .'

I didn't expect Jinhyuk to understand something so deep.

that's the only thing that can't be done

The Black Apostle is a profession that can only be chosen by those who have been chosen by the Demon King or the higher Demon Clan, and no one other than Demons knew of its existence.

Even within the Mine Association, the Hidden class known only among high-ranking executives is the Black Apostle.

'Even if I was so careful... I mean, it was this side that was still careless.'

At this point, beyond surprise, the fear of the opponent naturally rose.

However, there was no time to come now and rebuke his mistake.

Since I was on the scale, I had to answer the question.

ね!

As soon as this is said, it will be revealed how many Demon Kings and Demon Clans have signed contracts with the players.

Still, Gawain had to spit out this information.

"Three it is."

three... .

Surprisingly, I signed a lot of contracts.

Considering the level of the demons and the movements of the demon world so far, I can guess at what level they are intervening.

This is valuable information that cannot be converted into money.

Thanks for the good information.

Jinhyuk smiled brightly.

At the same time, the scale on the floor slowly disappeared.

right then

Whoops!

A loud noise was heard outside.

Dozens of torches moved chaotically as the metals collided.

Since there was such a riot, the Empire sent guards, unless they were fools.

I think we should part at this point today. It was like giving us bones and taking flesh, but I will pay for this with Jinhyuk-sama's life next time.

Um. I want to see you for a long, long time without killing me if possible.

...what else does that mean?

what does it mean

It means I don't want to cut down a tree that gives as generously as you do.

A tree full of delicious fruits.

When winter comes, why cut down the root of the tree and already kill the tree that can be used as firewood?

You should use it for as long as possible.

" I will remember those words."

Gawain also achieved the purpose of coming here, so he passed Jinhyuk's provocation moderately.

Then I stopped walking as I suddenly remembered something.

Oh. Oh, and I almost forgot to tell you one thing.

Gawain glanced at Jinhyuk.

Did you say Cheonyuseong?

"Chun Yoosung? Why is that guy's name suddenly appearing?"

It's not a big deal. Before I came to the Empire, I stopped by the Moorim side for a while, and I met him by chance there. To be precise, I only saw him from a distance.

Cheon Yu-seong is with Moo-rim at this time.

That meant only one thing.

A gentle breeze blew through the grass.

The sweet smell of grass pierced his nostrils.

" "

Cheon Yu-seong, who had stood silently for a long time, slowly closed his eyes.

Ugh... .

The sword began to move slowly through the air.

As if dealing with someone invisible, the speed and trajectory of the sword gradually became more dazzling.

The object that came to mind was none other than Jinhyuk.

It was the reason he climbed the tower and the purpose of remaining in this world.

' It must be surpassed.'

obsession close to madness.

The desire to defeat even after giving up everything, and the desire to be recognized by the target, engulfed my whole body.

Boo-woong!

The speed of the sword increased by one step.

Now one sword and one sword inhabited the dreadful mana.

As the conclusion of 'Sword of Souls' unfolded, a sword dance reminiscent of a storm unfolded.

KwaKwaKwaKwaKwaKwa!

terrain that is uninterruptedly divided.

The soil is dug and the grass is cut.

'beautiful'.

Seeing the heavenly planet that became one with the sword, there was nothing else to express.

How many minutes have passed since the frantic virtual showdown?

When my whole body is drenched in sweat and I can barely breathe.

It's amazing. Indeed, I can see why it's called swordsmanship among players.

Seollin Baek came along with the scent of plum blossoms.

Originally, it was a hostile relationship where we would have had to strike a knife straight away... .

Cheon Yu-seong did not take any action even after seeing Baek Su-lin.

"You would have said I was going down when it was over?"

I did. But, I wanted to see it in person. Even though it wasn't in real life, Sparring with the opponent you made me so obsessed with.

Only the depth of the footprints and the traces of the sword was able to estimate the level of the opponent.

Of course, even what the outcome was.

...I couldn't get over it. This time too.

Cheon Yoosung lowered his sword.

even though I did my best.

Even though I didn't make a single mistake.

It failed to defeat Jinhyuk again.

No matter how many times I tried to recover, there was no way that I could overcome the monster.

"Certainly the man I met at that time was out of the norm. If we fight properly, no one among the players can cut him."

Sullin Baek calmly told the truth.

dreaming

A tendon sprouted from Cheon Yu-seong's forehead.

It was because among the players she spoke of included herself.

Don't be too angry. That's why we came to you, Cheon Yu-seong. If you realize the magic of the sword and jump over that wall one step further... you too will be able to reach a level beyond human.

" "

I came to Moorim to become stronger.

To catch up with that absurd sword attack.

In order to surpass the strongest ranker, which makes you shiver just by facing each other.

'The growth period should be further shortened.'

He couldn't be buried in Jinhyuk's shadow forever.

At least, this time around.

Is it possible? In such a short period of time?

You know. If you're at your level of high skill, it takes too much time to break through a wall by ordinary methods.

The climax, the climax, and the process to get there are never smooth.

In the beginning, though, he was able to forcibly break through the wall through harsh training and expensive elixir.

From that point on, no matter how much training and elixir poured in, it was useless.

All that's left is meditation... Or just getting enlightenment through sparring with an overwhelmingly powerful person.

However.

You mean that you can bring that much gourd here now?

In the past, Cheonyuseong even defeated the plum blossom sword, which is called the first sword of the volcano.

Of course, in order to reach that point, I had to grow a lot more in the future, but to deal with the monster Kang Jin-hyuk, the plum blossom swordsmanship was not enough.

It has to be a stronger opponent.

By the way.

Sullin Baek smiled confidently.

There is only one person. Yuseong Cheon has an extensive knowledge about Moorim, so maybe you know.

sabak.

With the soft sound of stepping on the blades of grass.

someone came

And the moment I saw him.

How did the author get here...

An earthquake occurred in the pupil of Cheonyuseong.

A person who should never exist.

A person who could never come to this place appeared.
