Episode 416:
The monkey statue was easily taken off by Snowfall’s hand. It seemed like a statue that was treated individually in the first place because it was clean and had no broken parts.
“Where should I put that monkey?”
“If you leave it anywhere, you will be trampled to death...”
Snowfall approached the back of a troll holding a club.
“Marijou, this way.”
“ah! yes!”
Rumbling...
As soon as I brought the flame close to the troll’s back, a change occurred.
Cheeeeeee...
A pattern similar to the one engraved on the floor was engraved on the stone statue’s back.
“Monkey... here...”
Jaw...
The monkey statue clung to the troll’s back without much trouble. Mariju said.
“Lord Jalb.”
“All right!”
Sigh...
As soon as Jalb touched the round ball, the light from before came out.
Huuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuch

Pujiik...
A pirate’s sword is stuck in the chest of a small troll.
Taaaaaang-!
A warrior striking down a giant troll’s club.
Up to this point, it was the same as before.
Geek-!
Tuk-!
The monkey hanging on the troll’s back ripped off the troll’s necklace and dropped it to the ground.
Kwaaaaaa!
Angry troll.
Grumbling!
Soon, hot flames covered the guy’s head.
Cheeeeeee...
The group frowns at the realistic smell of burning flesh.
Blah blah blah...
The dwarves and monkeys turned back to stone. However, the trolls were broken and scattered into dust.
Ssssssssssssssssssssssssssww...
Clap!
“door! “It’s a door!”
The secret room was no longer a secret room. Part of the exterior wall was converted into a door.
“Can I go out?”
Jalb asked Kangseol.
“First of all, them.”
Ddudduddud...
The statues huddled together and followed the door.
The movement was uniform, as if there were rails underfoot.
Snow and his party followed their movements.
“Is it magic or an institution? It’s fascinating.”
“Aren’t there Castrangs in the Federation?”
“Ah... Castrang is a product of logic created by adding a pinch of magic... Now this... It’s like magic in a fairy tale, right?”
“It’s fairy tale magic... so it makes sense.”
“Brother, why did these stone statues suddenly appear?”
Because people were scattered across such a vast space, they had not yet encountered others.
Kang Seol and his party talked about the test of the stone statue.
“The ruins are the map that tests us....”
“Test? “Suddenly?”
“Isn’t that the severed head at the auction?”
“Oh that man! I remember. “It was bizarre.”
“It all started with that man’s words. “I guess it’s related.”
“What kind of robbers are involved? Are they familiar with these ruins?”
“At least better than us. “There is a high probability that he knew that things would turn out this way.”
Mariju touched her forehead.
“You’re scolded. “It’s not easy just to get out of the ruins, but there are people plotting as well.”
Jalb pounded his chest.
“Just trust me, Marijuu! “I will definitely take you to the mansion without any harm to your body!”
“My knees are already scratched...”
“That’s...”
“I’m kidding.”
“Mmm! At least we who are gathered here can trust each other!”
“....”
“....”
“Uh hmm... isn’t it.”
Neither Mariju nor Kang Seol and the others responded.
Druk...
“The statue has stopped.”
When Kang Seol looked up at the ceiling, those letters from the example popped out again.
Kang Seol interpreted the sentence without difficulty this time.
“The road to the destination is a series of hardships.”
Sigh...
Another stone structure has appeared nearby. It looked like a vine.
“Only the incomprehensible will open the way.”
When Kang Seol said that, everyone shook their heads and said one thing at a time.
“That round bead was a mystery, wasn’t it?”
“There’s something hidden there.”
Snowfall slowly approached the wizard statue.
A wall made of vines blocked their path.
He stroked the round sphere.
OK.
Huuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu...
The round bead reacted.
The statue briefly returned to life as before.
Hwaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!
Light emanated from the blue orb.
The vines were colored with a vibrant green color and looked strong, as if they could never be cut off.
Whioooooooo...
At that moment, the wizard’s orb shined light on the vine.
Passsssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss

“Is it rotting?”
Kang Seol watched the scene without taking his eyes off for a moment.
Kugung...
When the vines disappeared, the dwarves returned to the stone statues.
They headed forward again as if nothing had happened.
“... It’s surprising that I don’t run into anyone while doing this.”
“More than that, that bead... what kind of power is it?”
“It seems like it promotes corruption...”
“It seemed that way... but maybe it takes away life force.”
“indeed! “You might think so.”
“Then why did you two act so calm?”
“It was because I wasn’t sure if the three of us could defeat you. Because you are strong.”
In the case of snowfall, it was the exact opposite.
I left him alone because I was hoping that if I left him alone, he might reveal his tail to the other guy.
“Then why has your judgment changed now?”
“I just felt a little bit of the snowfall. The energy was so faint that I was momentarily mistaken. “Jalv, you... don’t know us...”
Marijuu said boldly.
“You can’t beat the snowfall.”
“what?”
“Puhahahaha! “I put my life on the line, but now he’s talking arbitrarily.”
Seven people can’t defeat one person. If I had said that I couldn’t defeat the four including Snowfall, I would have at least pretended to think.
Sereung...
“Then shall we check?”
Mariju hid behind the snowfall.
“Excuse me... I think it’s safest here.”
“....”
“... turn off the light.”
“... yes?”
“It will be a difficult sight to see.”
Nod...
Mariju turned off the light, and the ruins immediately became dark.
With the faint light coming from somewhere, it became difficult to see even what was right in front of me.
Puhwaaaaaaaaa!
There was a horrible sound and the sound of blood splattering. I could actually feel a few drops of blood splashing onto her dress.
“It’s okay now.”
A flame burning again.
Grumbling...
“... Oh my god.”
The time the fire was turned off was only a moment.
It was before I even counted to three.
But... the tragedy that unfolded before her eyes far exceeded her imagination.
Headless corpses were standing there like idiots.
thud-!
thud-!
Bodies falling backwards all at once.
“Hee... hee hee...”
Only Jalbman was crying with his head on the floor.
“Don’t... you monster...”
What did I see?
Marijuu didn’t even want to imagine it.
“You... were stronger than I imagined.”
“....”
Kang Seol approached Jalb and made eye contact.
Squeak...
Soon, the memories he had handed over information to Kang Seol.
“Hmm...”
“Did you find out something?”
Kangseol scratched his chin and answered Ur’s question, which had come closer.
“It is true that this place is the remains of an ancient dwarf who has been sleeping for a long time.”
“I knew that.”
“The guys who ruined the auction are targeting the treasure sleeping here. These guys... they didn’t have much interest in the auction.”
“Ho... Is it a treasure? “You don’t know what treasure is?”
“This guy doesn’t seem to know.”
“Why did you plan this now?”
“I guess the ruins needed a living sacrifice to regain its power.”
“Today was the day when many of these living sacrifices came to me.”
“... okay.”
“... What are you going to do with that woman?”
Accompanying Han So-mi is something Ur already knows.
What Ur was asking about was Marijuu.
Sigh...
She took off her mask.
Soon her ruby red eyes and her facial features were revealed.
“Let me greet you again, Sanxi Mariju. Unfortunately, we just lost our escort.”
“....”
“I would like to express my gratitude on behalf of my family if you can help me get out of here safely.”
“Oppa...”
Han So-mi made an expression like a puppy getting caught in the rain. She was very affectionate.
Kang Seol did not dislike her personality.
“... All right.”
“Thank you...”
Ur snorted.
“Hmph... Anyway... Hey Snowfall. “So that’s all the information you know?”
“So do you know something more?”
“... okay. “That bead.”
A blue bead obtained by a dwarf.
It was still shining in the wizard dwarf’s hand.
Snowfall said, following Ur’s finger.
“What on earth is that bead? And why are the ruins undergoing such trials....”
“Ordeals? no. “I’m talking.”
“story?”
“I wonder what happened with that bead.”
“Is that marble that great?”
“... Look at this snowfall.”
Ugh...
Ur activated the orb.
The light soon spread into the air.
Blah blah blah...
The change that occurred as the light spread overwhelmed everyone.
The huge stone bridge was regaining its former appearance.
“Nonsense... no way...”
“This is...”
Kang Seol’s expression hardened.
It was not about rebuilding the stone bridge. It was to return it to its former state.
Ur grinned.
“This... is Kagon’s item.”
The Kagon Empire was at the pinnacle of time magic and time magic.
Kagon is a forgotten empire whose greatness was only claimed by Urman.
“Kagon’s relic fell into the hands of a dwarf. “The story started there.”
Kugugu Palace...
The ruins have begun to change.
In the distance, the structure of the ruins changed and created something.
It was a fortress.
A castle that appears to have been scaled down from its actual size.
Marijue narrowed her eyes and said.
“I’ve seen that castle...”
“You saw it?”
“There are traces of it left in the north.”
she sighed.
“It is the throne of ash. The kingdom of the ancient dwarves.”
