1030 < 1027 Won 8. Book of transcendence (2) >

A white beam flashes across Ian's gaze.

The temple of Ekaris, filled with dark spirits, was slowly buried in a swarm of light.

Ian naturally closed his eyes, slowly raising his eyelids again.

“This is……. ”

Then Ian opened his eyes and looked around.

A new space opened before his eyes.

It was an empty space where the darkness of Sackáman sat, completely contrasted with the dazzling vision that was full of flashes.

‘The succession of trust...'... What is the last quest? ’

A dark, dark darkness lying around Ian that is hard to see.

But that dark kind of darkness wasn't that bad.

Rather, Ian's senses in this first place.

It was cozy and cozy, just like the child in the mother's womb.

‘This quest is as insensitive as the succession of wisdom. ’

Ian did not reopen the creation of the information for the last quest he had roughly checked.

All the distress quests given to him in the Wise Man's Tower.

There wasn't any information about the quest in the info window.

I feel it would be better to keep my eyes closed and mind calm while researching quests to follow while analyzing the information window.

“ ……. ”

Then, thinking so absurdly, a strange shadow slowly appeared before Ian's eyes meditating for a moment.

Jubbuck, Jubbuck.

Then look at the shadow coming towards you.

Ian opens his mouth slowly toward him.

“Who are you? ”

Ian thought the shadow would not be the enemy.

Once there was no hostility in him.

No matter how bizarre the Crucible Quest is, I didn't think I would attack him without any clue or warning in advance.

And Ian listens to the answer of the shadow.

I could see that he was right.

- Don't you know who I am?

He looked completely different.

The voice from the man's mouth was that of the dragon Drakisis who gave him the Crucible Quest.

So Ian smiled and opened his mouth again towards Drakisis.

“Are you here to give me one last trial? ”

- Yes, on the path of transcendence.

Ian and Drakisis' eyes collide in the air.

Ian then glanced again at the old man who looked at the old man.

“Succession of trust...... What kind of trial is this? ”

Taking Ian's question, Drakish said nothing for a moment.

And as he stared at Ian for a moment, he slowly opened his mouth again.

- The last hardship you will have to overcome...

Ian swallows a dry needle as he looks at Drakish, who has moxed his mouth.

Gulp.

But the moment after Drachys' words followed.

-Maybe the most difficult trial of all time, and vice versa.

Ian was dumbfounded and had no choice but to reflect.

“Yes?”

What he asked was clearly the content of a quest, since Drakisis' answer was almost identical.

“I asked you about the type of trials, not the difficulty.... ”

But despite Ian's confusion, Drakisis did not give him the answer he wanted.

No, I couldn't.

- There's not much I can tell you about the trials.

“What is that…? ”

- Because this last trial is not one you overcome by your will.

The more I listened to Drachys' story, the more I fell into the chaos in Ian's mind.

"What's with all the weird quests? ’

But next time.

Ian couldn't help but look shaky this time.

Whoo-hoo!

Drakish, who was right in front of him, summoned the golden gate of courtesy.

- There's only one thing you need to do.

“... What is it? ”

With a wooden staff in hand, Drakish points at the golden gate.

- We just need to get inside this gate and back out the other side.

“ ……. ”

In the description of GraKiss' quest, which makes no sense at all, Ian loses his words for a moment.

What's with all the qualities? ’

But the npc was only moving as planned.

Ian decided not to think too deeply.

Once he does what he says, there will be a trial.

‘If you don't want to tell me, just say so.... ’

Ian grumbles and slowly steps toward the gate.

“By the way, if you go in there, you'll be able to take the last trial that Drachys felt bad about, right? ”

Drachys' answer was very concise.

- That's right.

And when Ian heard the answer, he paused.

If I go in there, does it fall into a new episode? You have to fight something else, don't you? ’

But he was also brief.

Now Ian, who was completely out of his mind, began to walk again without hesitation.

‘Yeah, whatever it takes. ’

And as he approaches the golden portal, Ian steps forward into it.

* * *

Grrrrrrr!

Today's peaceful Kairon Basin.

The Grey Wolf Lai also began a pleasant day today.

‘Knng, the warmth of the sun makes me want to sleep more.... ’

Rye begins the lively day by looking at his companion wolves roaming around.

Something felt a little strange and dreamy.

He was clearly the Gray Wolf of the Chiron basin, Ly.

"Grrr! Grrr! I'm so hungry from my long sleep, by the way. ’

Rye is running around the green meadow looking for food to soothe his hunger!

Then the first thing that stood in his eyes was a weak looking human with a bow on his back.

"Grrr! Today's game is yours!" ’

Reaching out to the humans, Rye roars to suppress the ships.

He is the greatest Gray Wolf of the Kairon basin!

Such a weak human could not be his opponent.

Grrrrrrrrrrr!

However, the human in front of him showed an unexpected reaction from Rye.

“What if I stare at you? ”

A strange human smiling at Lai with his fists flashing in a shape that would even feed him honeymoon.

But that's the moment.

Rye began to feel something strange.

‘Grrr? Huh...? ’

This strange human face, which I thought I had met for the first time today, suddenly began to look familiar.

And then the next moment.

* Cough *...!

Rye began to recall all the memories he had forgotten.

"Grrr? Why is the owner here?" No, before that...... Why am I here? ’

Rye could not understand what was unfolding before his eyes.

He has been on adventures with Ian for many years and has already evolved to Sovereign Fenrir, the King of Wolves.

I didn't know why it was in the past.

"Grrr, is this a dream? ’

But apart from that incomprehensible situation.

Rye could see right away what he needed to do.

‘Grrr. You should run away or be captured by the owner...... or both. ’

This moment in Rye's memory.

It reminded me of a memory that was hit right before Ian died.

Rrrrgh! Let's go! It will hurt too much to be hit by the owner. ’

Thinking of Ian's spicy fist, Rye shakes his head and steps back.

But the moment after that.

‘Grrr, but wait. If I run away from here, will I never see my master again? ’

Rai came up with another idea and began to conflict in Ian's presence.

* * *

Glug.

A dark cave deep in the Abyssal Lake.

A turtle with a very large head swims out of the darkness.

Huh-huh-uh.

Lots of Abyss Tuttles protecting the Abyssal Lake!

Today I planned to go up to the island after a long time and eat delicious Abyssal Moss.

"Hmph! I have to find soft moss that melts in my mouth and cheeks!" ’

Lots of people who remembered the chewy texture of moss have already become happy faces and climbed up onto the land.

‘I need to go on a farther adventure today. ’

He had always hated to move away because of his lazy nature.

But today I decided to go on an adventure to find more delicious food.

He had an adventure. He was my favorite turtle!

Huh-huh-uh.

I started crawling to the rhythm with as much noise as ever.

However, after a long crawl, he found someone coming towards him from afar.

"Lots? Ugly man. Lots!" ’

Many were slightly nervous, but did not stop walking.

No one thought they could defeat the intrepid Abyssal Turtle!

But after a while,

The human approaches him and touches his shell with a cane.

Tuk-tuk-tuk.

How dare you touch me! ’

Thrash!

I hid myself inside the skin like a lot of arrowheads who had tried to kill humans once.

“What's this? ”

The man stared at me blankly with a ridiculous expression.

‘I have to go eat delicious moss now! Quit bothering me and get through it. Lots! ’

Lots of men grumbled inside, waiting for him to quickly pass by.

Instead of passing by, the man suddenly begins to chant a strange spell.

“Capture!”

And the white light that stretched out from his hand came towards his many bodies.

Lots of people didn't like that strange feeling.

‘Much! Much! ’

When he refused the light, the light scattered into the air and the man muttered with a embarrassing expression.

“What is it? I've never done this before. ”

I hoped that the annoying Humans would turn their attention off quickly.

Then, the man lifts up his cane and slaps a lot of shells.

Yeah!

He was not shocked, but offended.

How dare you hit me! ’

The man mutters curiously and continues to slap his shell.

“Too weak? ”

Uh-uh-uh-uh-uh.

However, it was a beating without much difference.

"Annoying! Annoying! ’

Then the man was even more embarrassed.

“What is this? ”

Then again, I swing the staff to see if there is a snare.

Yeah!

But so far, it's no different.

“What the hell is he doing? ”

The wolf next to him mutters and tilts his head.

Grrrrrrr?

“Rya, ask him. ”

As he spoke, the wolf came up to Lot and bit his shell.

Grrr!

He was furious.

"I'm getting gassy on my fancy shell! Somebody take a load of these! ’

But his shell was hard.

The wolf peels its shell and whines if its teeth hurt.

At this point, I was ready to give up, but the human suddenly crouched in front of many people.

"He's not going. What's he doing? ’

The moss was squishy and wild in front of my eyes, but I was greatly annoyed when I couldn't get out of the shell because of the strange human.

But then...

Suddenly, a human being is crouching and thinking about something.

Then I started pulling something out of my bag.

Knng, knng, knng.

Then, a fragrant smell started to seep into the big nose.

‘Phew! This smell...! ’

The moment the fragrant scent seeped into the end of my nose.

Lots of things made me feel dreamy.

“Phew...? ”

And it's like being struck by lightning.

I started to think of one or two memories that were hidden somewhere in my head.

‘Hmph, what's the situation? A lot of why I'm here. ’

As many memories began to push in, many were embarrassed.

But he was also brief.

He had to stick his head out of the shell once it was full of his favorite smell.

And there.

A very familiar chunk of round meat rests there.

“Turtle, this is really delicious. You're gonna regret this if you don't. ”

Man. No, Ian started seducing a lot of people.

And in that temptation, he began to worry again.

‘Tsk, your salivary glands are going to explode. I think I'll be happy if I eat a meatball! ’

However, there were many conflicts in front of him, not towards meatballs.

‘Lots! Lots to eat! ’

I wanted to stick my nose out and bite a mouthful of those smelly meatballs.

I started thinking wrong.

‘Hmph. I wonder if I can get out of my master's head now. ’

I don't know why it's in English.

He was before he became Ian's summoner.

And if you don't bite that meatball in here.

Many will live happily in this peaceful Abyssal Lake as long ago.

‘I want to eat meatballs so bad...... but I want to be a free turtle! ’

But at the same time.

In a lot of people's heads, I started to worry about other things.

‘It would be nice to get away from the ugly owner's horseshoe, but if you don't follow him now, you may not be able to eat a meatball for life. ’

From his favorite food ever to his favorite meatballs to his girlfriend Yemuch, Ian was able to meet.

A lot of precious memories passed through his head like a juma lamp.

I don't know! ’

So many heads slowly again in the first dysfunction of choice!

Lots of steps began to slowly break away somewhere.

* * *

Not "fuck me," not "Holly," not "Finn."

"Hairy", "Carseus", "Nick" …….

Elkarix, Lugarix, and the Mangrove, and Khr.

Ian's summoners have all had dreams long ago.

And in that dream, they are.

I had to make a choice.

* * *

Lai's gaze was on Ian.

The two gazes then collided in the air.

And Ian's eyes met Rye.

Eventually, I had to take a step back.

‘I hate it... when I can't meet the owner. Grrr! "

When I saw Ian's face, which had been filled with resentment, I could not easily walk away.

So Lai turned around and ran away, but jumped into Ian's arms.

Grrr!

And then the next moment.

“Capture!”

Ian's familiar voice poured back into Rye's ears.

Then, as he was sucked into the swarm of light that was stretched out from Ian's hand, Rye growled small.

‘Grrr. Yes, this feeling. I feel used to it.'

And so Rye's vision began to darken.

* * *

A lot of meatballs stared at Ian alternately.

At this moment, he knew one thing very well.

If you take a mouthful of meatballs right now.

that you will walk the same path you have walked.

Phew...!

Lots and lots of people looked back slowly at the past times he was with Ian.

‘Yes, the owner is a bit evil, but not a bad owner. If it wasn't for the owner, I wouldn't have met so many meatballs. ’

And many who were in conflict until the end showed their heads again and began to walk slowly.

Huh-huh-huh-huh-huh-uh!

Then the meatballs that were in front of him had to make the same choice again.

‘Definitely not because the meatballs are delicious. Living alone in a lake without an owner may be more boring than I thought. ’

So many I chose to be Ian's summoner again.

* * *

Ian didn't know.

The moment he stepped on this golden gate.

that his summoners had begun to dream.

But while walking the dark path within that gate.

Ian could feel the warmth one by one.

‘What's this feeling? I don't think that's bad... ’

And Ian felt his eyes getting brighter and brighter as he walked down the dark path.

Then take a step into the white light source.

- Tyring!

With a system notification tone so familiar, Ian was able to come back out again.

Jubbuck.

And Drakis appeared before Ian's eyes, smiling faintly.

- Take the first step, you did it.

Drakish looks very satisfied, but Ian is only confused.

I had no idea what he was talking about.

“Success?”

- Literally, you have gone through the last trials to gain my wisdom.

“Yes……? ”

Ian's bewildered reflexes were reflexive, but he no longer needed to hear Drachys' explanation.

The moment his words ended.

The system messages are starting to come back to me.

- The conditions are met.

- You have successfully completed the 'Succession of Trust (Hidden) (Epic) (Association)’ Quest!

-Clear Grade: SS +

…… approximate……

- Complete quests to earn clear rewards.

- You won the 'Head of Trust Ornament (Superior) (Seal)’ item.

All matching quests have been cleared.

Then head towards Ian, who is reading the message.

Drakisis smiles and adds a few words.

- With your courage and wisdom and your trust in you...... you will surely be able to walk the path of transcendence.
