Aremis was embarrassed.

Perhaps more embarrassed than when Ian appeared on the battlefield, than when the hidden supply depot began to collapse.

Ian mentioned Jacqueram because he thought he was the only one in the world who knew about it.

“Ja, you said Jacqueram village. Now? ”

The rest of Aremis reacted almost reflexively, and Ian responded with a grumpy expression.

“Why? No? ”

“ ……! ”

“If you don't like it, just die. ”

“Oh, no! Wait!”

Aremis quickly shakes his hand and stops Ian from swinging his spear.

And at the same time, the head began to roll desperately.

‘I don't know how Ian knows about Jacqueram...... but maybe this is his chance. ’

Jacqueram Village is located not far from the entrance of the crack to the Jersey.

But that didn't mean it was in an easy place to find.

Jacqueram Village is located deep in the Red Rock Mountains to the southeast of the crack entrance, because it is a rough terrain flowing with ragged lava.

Moreover, these red rocks are inhabited by fierce Lava Giants, who have no ego like the other Giants, but have enormous combat power.

Even Ian isn't easy to deal with.

‘Once we can lure Ian toward Jacqueram Village, we may have a chance to defeat him in reverse. I, the aide of the Salt King's family, will not be attacked by the Lava Giants, but Ian will. ’

Aremis, who had done the calculations primarily quickly, asked Ian in a gentle voice.

“I don't know what you're doing in Jacqueram. I can take you. ”

And in response to Aremis' positive answer, Ian's eyes began to flash.

“Oh, yeah...? ”

Aremis' words continue again.

“But one thing's for sure. ”

“What?”

“When I take you to Jacqueram village, won't you need something to make sure I get back alive? ”

Aremis' words, perhaps, were natural.

At this point, Ian's life force was roughly mortal. If Ian breaks his promise and attacks Jacqueram as soon as he arrives, there's no way he can survive.

But that frees Aremis in advance.).

Ian also had to hold Aremis hostage until he got to town, even if he wanted to reduce the risk of breaking his promise.

“Hmm……. ”

Ian pauses to think, touching his chin.

We started rolling our heads to see how we could win.

After a while, Ian nods and says again.

“All right, Aremis. You have a point. ”

“So... what are you going to do? ”

“I'll hold off on the demands of taking you to Jacqueram Village. ”

In response to Ian's unthinkable answer, Aremis was again embarrassed.

“Well, then…? ”

The moment I heard Ian's words, I couldn't help but look distorted.

“Instead, share with me your World of Jersey map. Then let's get him out of here and get him back alive. ”

“ ……! ”

Kailan has the ability to share a portion of his World Map with other users.

Users who share the map will be able to automatically update their World Map.

Adding shared maps to the maps you reveal, you will be able to see the structure of maps you have never visited.

And Aremis had no choice but to listen to Ian's offer.

Sharing the map itself made the demand larger, but the risk was not reduced at all.

“What's the difference? ”

“Hmm…? ”

“Like this offer, you could just share the map and then kill me. ”

Of course, it was to share the map of the underworld with Ian, not all of the World Map that Aremis had, but so far there are very few Horse users in the underworld, so the value of Aremis' World Map must be enormous.

But Ian was not so stubborn.

“No?”

“Hmmm...? ”

“Then die. ”

“Ahh... ”

Ian pushes his spear again, and a deep sigh comes out of Aremis' mouth.

I thought about dying for a moment, but no matter how much I thought about it, it wasn't.

‘Quest rewards that will be lost are also rewards, but Death penalty will be huge and you will have to start all over again with Alliance quests……. ’

If you die here, you will suffer damage for at least a week, and you could say that the loss would be the same as a full contribution to the potential owners of the content.

Even now, the Horse Rankers must be entering the underworld one by one.

And to help Aremis make this confused decision, Ian opened his mouth again.

“Hey, Aremis. ”

“Why?”

“If you're nervous, I'll write you a contract. ”

“Contract?”

“Why is there a contract with Kailan? Just give me a second. ”

Ian opens his inventory and picks up an item of Kailan's contract that he's always stockpiling.

Mission to Laorene (?), so it was always in my inventory.

Zec...

Ian writes the contract, very naturally.

And moments later, Ian showed Aremis the contents of the contract.

- Kailan contract.

- From the time both A and A sign this Agreement, A and E shall not attack each other for two hours.

-If a contract is broken, the target is paid 100,000 dimensional coins.

- However, this Agreement is valid only if E shares the 'World Map of the Underworld' with A.

A: Ian/A: Aremis

After confirming the terms of the contract, Aremis sighed and nodded.

It was clear that if Ian signed this notarized LB agreement, he would not be able to break his promise.

As per the terms of the contract, I would rather think Ian broke his promise and gave me 100,000 dimensional coins.

“Joe, good. Okay, Ian. ”

“Hehe.”

“I'll take your offer. ”

Once we made our decision, the contract went through quickly.

Zek-Zek-

After receiving Ian's signed contract, Aremis immediately signed the contract and shared the world map as Ian requested.

- Tyring!

- I received the World Map of 'Jiger ⁄’ from the Horse user ‘Aremis’.

-Synchronize map information for Horse user 'Aremis’.

And Ian, who shared the map with Aremis, began clearing the rubble by torching the building as promised.

Grrr... Grrr!

And after getting out of there, Aremis opened his mouth to Ian, chewing his lower lip tightly.

“Hopefully Jacqueram will be here soon. ”

“Hmm…? ”

“Next time I see you, I'll kill you with my own hands. ”

Seeing Aremis speaking with a splendid face, Ian grins.

“Well, I don't know if I can with my near-death skills, but whatever. ”

“Phew……. ”

At Ian's words, Aremis' face turned red and started running.

Since Ian didn't attack us, we weren't safe from the other mercenaries, so we want to get out of this dangerous battlefield as soon as possible.

And Ian, who was staring at the back of Aremis for a moment, muttered as he lost his sight.

“Hehe, Thor gave me honey I never thought I'd get. ”

Ian opened the World Map of the Underworld from Aremis.

The world of Jersey was a new map that Ian had not even looked at yet, so it was just a whole map.

‘Aremis, let's meet again shortly, as you said. I'll rip something bigger out of you. ’

Ian grinned and laughed, trying to reopen the quest window that he had folded.

You cleaned out a Node and destroyed four Supply Depots, so you should check to see if your quest requirements have been met.

-Clear Condition: Destroy the Giant Supply Depot (4/3)

Collect 'Magic Heart’ Item (2 of 5)

And after confirming it, Ian relished his sorrow.

‘Hehe, there are two empty supply depots, so the magical heart hasn't been recovered yet. ’

Once Ian destroys the Node, the Laferian Warriors retrieve the items inside.

I didn't know how many magical hearts were recovered, but it was a shame because they were only a little more accomplished than I thought.

“Well, it doesn't take more than an hour to open a Node, but a few more to finish it." ”

Ian, who thought positively, took a step back and began to move through the ruined Forward Node.

The Forward Node was definitely not in one place, so it went deeper.

On the way to the next map, one question came to Ian's mind.

I suddenly remembered something that I had not thought of while fighting.

‘By the way, it looks like the place you just wiped out was a serious Node. You haven't even met the Magic Giant whose elders told you to be careful. I haven't found any granite or anything... ’

Like the elders of the Lafers, the main NPCs who give top quests never tell a silly story.

Every part of every word they give a quest is a word that helps in any way.

That's why Ian thought he'd meet at least one of the Giants of Magical Power.

If you were an object you couldn't meet while completing the quest, the Elders wouldn't have mentioned it so seriously.

“I feel the power of the Giants over there, Ian. ”

“Tessa's right. That's the stronghold where the Giants are stationed. ”

At the words of Tesar, the NPC leader of the Laferian warriors, Ian's gaze shifts automatically in the direction he taught.

You can then ride the Iron to a slightly higher place and find the base of the giants surrounded by a giant wooden scepter.

‘Node I saw here... …. Somehow the difficulty of the forward Node felt too low. ’

A little further down the road, Ian was able to find Giants who looked like he'd never seen them before.

I feel a little smaller than the other Giants.

If the giants had a muscular body made of blood, they were wrapped around it like robots.

And Ian, who found them, was instinctively convinced.

“I knew it……! ”

These are the Giants of Magic Power, as the elders of Lafere used to say.
