Chapter 51

Shadow soldiers and armed men swept the night streets.

Kyaaaa!

Get back into the building! Dont open any windows!

Currently, Nobira was washing away the negative energy that has built up in the city with blood and steel.

Kuaaargh!

D-Do you really think you will be able to handle this? Heka will kill you all!

Itll be a different story if we kill you all before that happens though.

H-Hol

Stab

A life had met its end.

Similar things were happening throughout the city.

Though death is what gives meaning to life, there were way too many people dying in vain in the city.

Wolf Krgh You came up with a few good tricks this time but what do you think about backing off now? said Doju.

Why would I do that?

Because Heka will be coming soon. Hes coming to tear your head off from your body for biting me, hahaha

I already know that. Thats why Im in a hurry.

......

Doju looked for ways to escape from this situation but wherever he looked, there was someone blocking his way.

And if there werent people, there were shadows.

Kibo, are you still turning your dead faction members into your shadows?

Yeah, I still am.

You make me want to vomit I feel awful for them.

This conversations already gone too long. The nights going to be long even with you gone. Farewell.

St-stop it! Kraaargh

Slice!

The spine-chilling sound of a persons head being separated from their body filled the dead space.

Doju is dead. Tell it to the members of his faction and dont kill anyone who surrenders.

Understood!

Now is it only Heka left?

Since Heka is still alive, the real plan starts now.

Exactly. Dont relax just yet, we need to find out exactly what moves Heka has made. First, lets rendezvous with Shur.

Blood flowed throughout the city.

It was undeniably a cruel sight but no one showed sympathy to the tyrants death.

Kibo, despite all the commotion, was successfully able to rendezvous with Shur.

And here, Kibos first prediction was wrong.

Heka should have aimed for us before we were able to rendezvous so why didnt he show up?

Either he was confident to the point that he was arrogant, or he was in a situation where he couldnt fight right away.

Kibo then suddenly thought of the mission he gave Mira before the Wolfs Night started.

He sent Mira to a bar after hearing that Heka and Seol were fighting there. And ever since sending her there, he has heard absolutely nothing.

What happened

Kibo, so you were fine.

Ah, you as well.

I heard that you killed Hoju. Now I guess all thats left is Heka.

Just because hes wild doesnt mean that hes stupid. Im sure that Hekas preparing for battle, and then

And then

The two felt that something was off and instantly turned to look at a person who was approaching them.

Kibo! Mira is back!

Mira is?

Yes! B-But

What happened?

I think you should see this yourself.

Step Step

A weak gait.

It looked as if the person walking toward them had lost their meaning.

Someone was walking toward Kibo.

Mira!

Kibo

You were safe, thats such a relief.

Kibo, you know

Mira bit her lips and hesitated from saying something.

Kibo patiently waited for her to speak. He knew that if someone as hot-tempered as she was hesitating to say something, it had to be just as important.

Fuuu

Raise

With a sigh, Mira put forth her hand. Along with whatever hung underneath it.

A head?

A persons head was nothing to be surprised by here. The city was filled with decapitated heads after all.

Youre making me look forward to it.

I never thought Id be telling someone else about this Id be glad if I didnt get teased for being a light person after this.

It must have been something difficult to say as Kibo was hesitating.

When I was very young Back then, I did anything for money, not just hunting ruins. I even did things that mercenaries would do like guarding, scouting, and even assassinations.

Kibo had a glint in his eyes, as if he were pulling out his old memories from the air.

It happened when I was going around the desert in the west. I was deployed there with my party members, and we discovered someone who was frantically running away from some people.

And you saved them?

I was young back then. My body acted before I could even think. I did get a huge scar because of it though.

So you were able to successfully save them.

They were tired after a long chase after all. Anyway, I killed them all and buried them all in the sand.

And what youre about to give me now is related to the person you saved that day, right?

Exactly.

Seol grew more and more interested the more Kibo talked.

Judging by how Kibos taking a long time to tell the story, it must be extremely important information, thought Seol as he paid attention.

Regardless, I cant believe the connection I made in the desert is going to be further extended like this. He told me that he received a lot of help from me and that he would pay it back someday.

So what are you going to give me?

His debt. To be more precise, Im trying to give you the payment he promised me for saving his life.

Is that worth as much as Hekas head? responded Seol.

Kibo laughed when he saw Seols disappointed reaction. Almost like he had been waiting for this question from him.

Do you know who Orgo is?

Orgo Are you talking about Orgo, the Blood-Drenched?

Youre more knowledgeable than I thought. Were you interested in this side too?

I heard about him for various reasons. Dont tell me is the person you saved related to Orgo?

He is Orgos successor.

Ah

Orgo, the Blood-Drenched.

Not only was he a blacksmith, he was also an excellent fighter.

Whats interesting is that despite the nickname of Blood-Drenched, Orgo didnt thoughtlessly kill people.

He was called Blood-Drenched for another reason entirely.

It was because of the weapons he made.

Orgo made several weapons during his life, and everyone who got their hands on one of his weapons all inevitably painted the continent in blood.

And because of that, Orgo fell into despair before eventually disappearing from the world.

The reason that Seol knew so much about him was because

I was Orgo.

Seol could still remember the things that happened back then.

Seol had played various characters with different concepts back then and Orgo was one of the more memorable ones.

Because of his immense innate talent, Orgo would constantly make incredible items out of whatever materials he got his hands on. It was to the point that the items that he made were even better than the rewards you would get from Adventures around a similar level.

Orgo was undoubtedly an incredible character and if Seol had just kept going, Orgos reputation would have rivaled even the last 10 pieces he made.

But Orgo was unable to do that.

He just happened to be weak mentally

The weapons that Orgo made fell into the hands of evil people who covered the continent in blood. That was also around the time Orgo became skeptical of other people.

Orgo had gone through a lot and it had exhausted him. In the end, Orgo was pushed mentally into a corner, making Seol agonize over what decision to make next.

Eventually, there was only one option left.

[[Would you like to give up on Orgos Adventure?]

1. Yes.

2. No.]

The decision that Seol had made was to let Orgo live the life that he wanted.

He believed that it was a much better fate than giving Orgo a tragic ending.

[Adventurer Orgo will now pioneer his own path and fate.]

[Though this heart-racing Adventure is over, his life will still continue.]

Orgo had started his journey as a naive blacksmith but ended it by disappearing from the world, receiving the bitter resentment of others.

But I didnt expect to hear Orgos name again here.

There was a reason that Seol was delighted to hear Orgos name, unlike his other pieces.

Orgo was made after Seol had adapted to The World of Eternity quite a bit.

And as such, he didnt die in vain and he even left behind a few achievements.

It will help me out a lot if Im able to find his traces.

After all, Orgo was a piece that went on a lot more Adventures than Seol.

There was another reason too though.

Hamun was it? Is he still alive?

Hamun was the name of a student he took in as Orgo.

After an entire decade, Seol was finally seeing him again.

His name is Hamun. He doesnt make anything anymore though. However, he did tell me that he would repay the debt. And now, after all this time, its gone to you, said Kibo.

Where is Hamun now?

Why do you think I brought this up?

Seols eyes grew serious.

So hes in Nobira.

Yeah, Hamun is here.
