Episode 101
Kwaang—!!!!
Jin Soo-hyuk slammed the table and shouted.
“Are you… out of your mind? Are you going to send your daughter to that terrible battlefield now? “How could a person like my father…!!”
He glared at Namgung.
“Half of your unit members died in the incident where Unit 711 was disbanded, right? Since he doesn’t care about the lives of his subordinates, my daughter does the same…”
Pow!!!
It was then.
Chang-Hwan’s fist flew towards Jin Soo-Hyuk, but it was he who let out a groan.
“Do you think an attack like that would work?”
“Ugh…!!”
“You haven’t even eaten a single rune yet, have you? “You want to fight only with human capabilities, without the power of supernatural powers?”
“You bastard….”
“I heard the nonsense you said. It was featured prominently in the article. But you know what? “People like you who talk nonsense are the first to die.”
Changhwan sat down, clutching his side in pain that felt like it was suffocating, and looked up at him.
“He is truly the leader and his subordinate. The Blue House also has no people. It might have been better if it had been a team created by the National Intelligence Service. “I trust the guy who ruined my unit.”
“…If you know something, tell me. At that time, my brother!”
“Jin Soo-hyuk. As you said, it is true that children are objects of protection. “I thought so too.”
Namgung gently pressed Changhwan’s shoulder.
Changhwan seemed to have sensed the look in his eyes telling him to be quiet, and he staggered to his feet, clutching his throbbing side.
“But children are by no means the only ones who need to be protected.”
“That’s a dirty excuse. Are you saying that it is natural to send young children into battle? If you are an adult, you must protect your children…!!”
“So are you going to fight?”
“…what?”
Jin Soo-hyuk paused at his words.
“The enemy does not automatically die just because you crouch. You are telling false nonsense. In the end, you end up hiding behind the scenes and hoping that someone else will solve the problem.”
Grinding my teeth
sharply .
“Do you know what is most important for those with abilities who awaken their powers once the carnival begins? “People just talk about qualities, but there’s actually more to it than that.”
‘…Has your attitude changed?’
Jin Soo-hyuk was unable to refute anything even though Namgung, who had treated him with respect until a moment ago, stopped speaking.
‘No way can I…’
He realized that his knees were shaking.
“…What is that?”
“It is a wish. “Ability is something that comes from manifesting what you most desire.”
Namgung looked at him.
“Of course, the desire to protect children is something to be cherished. It’s probably that wind that gave you the power. But one day you will find out. “Children will grow up faster than you think and you will have your back.”
Gulp –
He swallowed dry saliva without realizing it and looked at Namgung.
“There is no need to push the cub like a lion pushing it over a cliff, but holding it tightly is also blocking the children’s opportunity to grow.”
Namgoong thought of Somin.
“My daughter is not like me, who struggles to climb up from the bottom.”
A strange smile appeared on his lips.
“I’m with my mom.”
It was an anticipation.

Inside Rakanheim’s report
immediately after defeating the Titans .
– Are you telling me to hand over this fairy tribe to a brat like that who is not even the Yasha King? This is nonsense! Rather, tell Mu-hwi to give him the position of head of the Yaksha clan!
The queen shouted in embarrassment at Namgung’s words.
“Then it’s too late. It is said that the Yasha clan’s throne award ceremony takes place for a week. “The fourth door will soon open.” Searᴄh the ηovelFire.ηet website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
-But….
“If you don’t catch the boss of the 4th door, it’s an octagonal war and there’s no point in it. “Because everyone will die.”
Namgung looked at her like that.
“You should know that the reason I took down the giants was not simply to give Gyu-ryu credit.”
He held up the 【Seed of the Beginning】 and spoke.
“It was to get this out. Memel, I want you to take this to the fairy world.”
-My me?
The queen asked as she took the seed, forgetting how angry she had been a moment ago at his unexpected words.
“Isn’t it strange? Both the World Tree’s staff and this seed are the clan’s Noble Phantasms. But compared to a wand, the effect of seeds is very poor.”
Namgung smiled at her.
“You wouldn’t think that the giants’ treasure would simply increase defense.”
One line written at the end of the description.
▶ There appears to be some additional hidden power.
Namgung looked at it and said.
“Take this to Somin. “Once the fairy contract is over, he will know how to use it.”
-No way… Are you trying to entrust the fourth monster to Miss Somin?
The queen asked with a trembling voice.
“that’s right.”
-It’s too dangerous!! If you are a regressor, you would know. The identity of the monster that appeared when the fourth door opened!!
“I know.”
The queen kept her mouth shut at Namgung’s answer.
“The devil king.”
-Well then….
“That’s why.”
-…yes?
“I won’t be able to beat him. “It was like that before, so it’s going to be even harder now.”
The queen could not refute.
‘Because all I managed to do was avoid him and hunt down the great demons.’
There was no way he had not encountered the devil even once in 25 years.
He clashed with him several times, and each time, Namgung barely escaped from the brink of death.
“I know his strength better than anyone else.”
Namgung thought.
‘I’m not even sure I can kill him. I’m just challenging the hypothesis that Den Howl left before his death.’
Only he, who was the revealer of the magic world, was able to discover the method of killing the Demon King.
And now, no one can deny that Somin, who is a better wizard than he was in his previous life, is his only hope.
Nevertheless, in the end, the odds are half and half.
“Demons are known to use magic power, but magic power is a power of the natural world. “If I were to accurately classify their power, it is closer to illusion than magic.”
The Queen nodded at Namgung’s words.
“And what can destroy that genjutsu is pure magical power.”
-It’s not wrong. And I also understand what Namgoong’s expectations are from Somin. Just….
“Just?”
-There is no disagreement that Somin has a genius talent that cannot be compared to anyone else when it comes to magical power. However, destroying illusions is not simply achieved through magical power.
The queen looked at him.
-Crushes illusions using magical power. That’s just theoretical.
However, unlike her meaningful answer, Namgoong’s expression did not waver.
“It’s just a theory… That’s certainly what I know. It’s something no one has ever checked. “But do you really think I would put my daughter in danger based on just a theory?”
-Then….
“Qualities are said to be born with something, but that doesn’t mean that just as a flower cannot bloom in an empty land, something that is born must also have a source.”
Namgung spoke to the queen.
“As you can see, I have no magical power. So how could the child acquire such qualities?
-…no way.
“Somin’s mother. “That child probably inherited the qualities from my wife.”
-What kind of person is this person to have such incredible magical power?…
However, Namgung smiled faintly instead of answering the queen’s question.
“He was an ordinary person with nothing special. It just hurt for quite a while. “It’s an incurable disease whose name we don’t even know.”
That smile felt so lonely and cold that it seemed to pierce the queen’s heart.
Until her death and the unit’s disbandment.
Perhaps the moment he lost his wife was a more despairing life for him than it is now when the gates of hell have opened.
“I tried my best to find a way to fix her. But I couldn’t find the answer in the end. But funny enough, it wasn’t until the world became like this that I realized what the name of her illness was.”
-No way… If the disease is caused by magical power…
“It is highly likely that she had arrhythmia. So no one here would have been able to find out the cause.”
[Arrhythmia… I never thought there would be someone with that disease in this world without a carnival.]
Gyu-ryu responded with a surprised expression at Namgung’s words.
[It is a rare thing even in our world,
so much so that it is called the prophet’s disease.] – A type of magic illness where the magic power is so strong that it cannot circulate within the body, so it accumulates in the body and causes a kind of magic storm.
The queen quietly recited about arthrosis.
-As a result, the blood vessels through which magical power should flow are cut off, and furthermore, the organs are slowly eaten away… It is an unfortunate disease caused by excessive talent.
[It would be natural that there is no information about that disease in this world without magic.]
-So, did you die from that disease?
Namgung shook his head in response to the queen’s question.
“It was a sudden disaster. “I lost her in the earthquake.”
-It’s a shame. Otherwise, a greater wizard than anyone else might have been born.
“okay. It’s a shame. “I don’t think such a terrible earthquake would happen in the middle of Seoul…”
A massive earthquake with a magnitude of 6.8 occurred in Yeongdeungpo.
Even thinking about it now, the unprecedented and terrible accident was such a regrettable event that I cannot understand it.
-I now understand why Somin has such tremendous magical power. But…
the queen spoke carefully.
-No matter what, dealing with the devil is a very dangerous task.
“know. If Somin had been alone, I would have dealt with him even if I had failed. “What I believe in is not just my daughter’s talent.”
Goosebumps –
At that moment, the queen felt a tingling sensation as if the murderous energy emanating from Namgung was cutting her entire body.
“Parents are something.”
* * *
[…What a fun vibe. It’s not like I’m using necromancy, but another hero resides inside my small body.] A
harsh voice coming from inside an underground waterway hidden under London Bridge.
No one could have imagined that the person sitting cross-legged in this dirty place, where the stench of sewage stung, was actually the devil.
[Are you his flesh and blood?]
The Demon King said to So-min, waving his nose as if he were smelling something.
[Unlike this one, it smells sweet. Yes, it is the scent of top-class magical power. He came to me on his own feet….]
Quaaaaaaang—!!!
When the Demon King opened his mouth wide, his long snake-like tongue trembled.
[I can eat you up!!!]
In an instant, with a loud explosion, he launched himself towards Somin.
It was then.
A blue curtain appeared in front of Somin.
bang! bang!! Kwaaaang!!
It was just a thin curtain, like a silk curtain, but surprisingly, the Demon King’s attack was blocked by the curtain.
Kwaaaang!!
Rather, the shaking curtain completely deflected the devil’s attack.
Due to the backlash, the demon king’s body was pushed back and fell into the sewage channel.
[Cough…! Cough…!!]
The Demon King crawled up from the bottom of the sewer and looked at her with disbelief.
Flying….
‘I heard the sound of wings flapping.
Light flying around Somin like fireflies in a dark sewer.
[…Contract Fairy?]
The Demon King frowned as she looked at the three fairies flying around her.
The young fairies who had just been born from the flower buds were laughing as if they were not afraid of the devil.
[Nonsense. Even if it is the night of the summoned beast, a contract can only be made with one person…?]
“The ones I made a contract with are not those kids. “They just followed.”
Somin spoke to the devil.
thud-!!
When the cane in her hand touched the floor, she felt it beating like her heart was beating.
At that moment, the flying fairies disappeared.
However, the fragrant forest scent emanating from Somin seemed to become stronger.
Sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo…!!
A gentle breeze blew, and the Demon King’s face hardened.
[Wig… Rasion?]
A fairy of the World Tree and the origin of the fairy race.
The greatest fairy.
The Demon King spoke with a mesmerized expression as she saw a figure appear behind her.
[Crazy… He and his daughter are just as stupid. [Because] he was so blinded by the powerful force that he couldn’t even look at his own dishes.]
But soon he smiled coldly.
[Do you think humans can handle the fairies of the World Tree!! I will eat your little body before it explodes…]
Stop –
The Demon King’s steps, which seemed as if he would rush at any moment, became stiff.
‘No… it’s different.’
He looked at the figure of a woman behind Somin.
Although she was emitting a dark magical power that made her nose hurt, her face did not belong to a fairy.
[…Who is it?]
As the woman wrapped Somin, a warm light began to seep from her body.
Then, Somin’s body began to become more and more filled with magical energy.
[How could he have that much magical energy…]
The Demon King realized that something was wrong.
He was different from the commanders who used their power indiscriminately just for revenge.
The powerful spirit was protecting her rather than pushing her away.
[A summoned beast that protects the summoner’s body? There’s no way something like that exists…!!]
At that moment, the woman behind Somin slowly opened her eyes.
[Kaaaa!!!]
The demon king rushed towards Somin.
Ugh…!!
And the ore in the woman’s hands began to glow.
A solid barrier was built around Somin.
Numbering 3.
Name: Beginning Seed
Grade: Legendary (First)
▶ When activated, the entire body is covered with ore that nullifies all attacks for 30 seconds.
Bang! Bang!! Kwaaaang!!
The Demon King frantically pounded on the barrier in a desperate manner, but the thick rock did not budge.
▶ There appears to be some additional hidden power.
Somin closed her eyes as she looked at the last line in the description of 【The Beginning Seed】.
‘Parents are the ones who protect their children even in death.’
I felt like I could hear my father’s words in my ears.
[…no!!!!!]
