The 31st Piece Turns the Tables

Chapter 527



Episode 527

Kwaaaaaaaa!

When the wall was destroyed, the size of the ruins became enormous. The more I broke through the ruins, the more I seemed to be heading towards the roots of the tree.

Kwagagagagagagak-!

It seemed like the Black Knight would soon give himself up to Mobs. A thought flashed through my mind that maybe it would be better if I just let him get caught like this.

– … I guess it’s my turn this time.

‘… damn it.’

It bothered me that the Black Knight so calmly called himself an ally.

“There is a door at the end of the ruins that won’t open! “You just have to go there!”

Snowfall shouts at the Black Knight.

Paaaaaaaaaaaa!

And again, it made a loud noise and became the target of the mobs.

At this time, it didn’t matter how much Kang Seol knew about the structure of the ruins.

“… It won’t open?”

Yes.

In the past when I lived as a mob, that door continued to exist. With it firmly closed.

Mobs paid no attention to the door after that. No, there were times when I felt like I was intentionally avoiding it.

Kang Seol thought that the door was the only solution to this situation that had already opened.

…for now.

“What if it doesn’t open?”

“Then I went and thought… Hmph!”

Kwa-ja-ja-ja-ja-ja-!

[The mob uses a flowing enemy.]

[When chasing a target, your action speed gradually increases every 5 seconds.]

[The increased action speed lasts until the end of the battle.]

‘… This damn thing. ‘When did the snake develop something like this!’

The ruins were changed from a straight line to a structure that drops downward. Now it seemed like he was heading towards the roots in earnest.

Kwagagagagagagak-!

“Change a little faster….”

Quaaaaaaaaaaa!

Karen shouted, blowing away the remains of the ruins blocking her path.

“Change it, Karuna!”

“…not yet.”

“Aaaahhh!”

Quaaaaang-!

Mobs’ body was like a castle in itself. If humans fight against sex, anyone will side with the sex.

This monstrous snake’s body did not allow attacks and only unilaterally destroyed the surrounding area.

Kwaaaaaaaaaaaa!

Quaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa8551114588 there?

If anyone made a mistake, the distance between them and the mobs would narrow. Fortunately, Snowfall was vaguely aware of the points to be careful of, so no major problems arose, but if she was not careful, she could have been smashed before she even got to the door.

“… I can see it over there.”

The Black Knight said while looking at the door in the distance.

“hey! “It’s your turn!”

When Karen shouted at the Black Knight, he wrinkled his nose and let out a roar.

Paaaaaaaaaaaa!

The goal is to be taken over by the Black Knight.

Now how do I open that door…

Kugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugu ’

“… It opens?”

“Run right in!”

For some reason, the door opened as if waiting for Kang Seol and the others, and white light came out from inside.

There was no need or time to hesitate.

The maw of Mobs has arrived right in front of the door.

Paaaaaaat-!

Cuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu

the the door closed with the Black Knight as the last.

Krbar …

The crying of a monster who missed the outside was hovered.

“Haa… haa….”

“Whoa… whoa… If we had fought, I would have cut you with a single sword.”

“… before?”

“That’s about half a knife. “It wasn’t a single knife, right?”

“you’re right. Phew… fighting a small animal is not something a knight should do.”

Even Karuna joined in and made the chase with the mobs tasteful.

“It was a terrifying monster.”

“….”

“Right?”

When the Black Knight said that, the twin knights also acknowledged it. If you had fought under favorable conditions against Mobs in the Hall of Guardians, you would probably have suffered a lot.

After lying down for a moment, catching their breath, the group began to look around.

“So… where are we?”

“I don’t know either. “I wonder what’s beyond the door.”

“Uhm… the fact that the owner doesn’t know means he really doesn’t know.”

“Master, look this way.”

“Karuna?”

Karuna said, pointing to one side. Snowfall approached quickly and saw a letter floating in the air with such a unique energy that it could be seen even in the light.

“… message?”

“I think it’s a password, probably.”

“It’s a password…”

The Black Knight also rested his chin and looked around.

Phew…

The text that Karuna discovered appeared once again.

“… uh?”

“Woo -woong …”

Hu

Woo

-woong …

It seemed as if the walls of a cylindrical room were filled with letters.

“This text… somewhere…”

“I saw it… like…”

Slurp…

At that time, a pure white tree appeared in this huge space. To be exact, there were about a dozen people surrounding that tree as well.

– Come on.

– I waited.

What they were saying was conveyed directly to my mind.

“… what?”

“Wait…you said you did?”

Karen and Karuna simultaneously walked towards the white tree as if fascinated.

The Black Knight also looked around and approached the pure white beings along with them.

Kang Seol was alert to this situation.

These beings are friendly to you as soon as you come here to escape the mobs. Moreover, these people were not human.

‘Coming home… fairy?’

They looked like a combination of a dwarf and a fairy. In addition, they are pure white as if their entire body has been bleached. As if the eyes had turned into fairies.

– The promised time has come.

– You are going back again.

“Sleep… What is this….”

Snowfall cut them off.

“What are you talking about? “Who are you?”

These fairies introduced themselves.

– We are a clan of guardians.

– We have protected the seeds from the moment this land was born.

After defeating the initiator, a completely different group of guys came this time.

“… seed?”

– Mother Earth is crying.

– Everyone is suffering.

seed.

mother land.

Everyone suffers.

While interpreting the incomprehensible sounds, Kang Seol seemed to have caught a clue.

“Are you really talking about an incident from two years ago?”

– The power of the stars actually tormented Mother Earth.

– Mother Earth is tired and running out of strength.

– All possibilities will fall asleep. Maybe… everyone will die.

– But it’s okay because you guys came.

– The seed finds its original location.

At that time, Kang Seol remembered the fight with the Black Knight a long time ago. So, not the black knight next to him, but the black knight who chased with the black pilgrims.

At that time, when Karuna and the Black Knight came into contact, the Black Knight’s memories flowed into him.

– I never thought that the item we were aiming for would fall into Jin’s hands…

– Is that why it didn’t take this long? By the way, what about that girl?

– Let’s think about it later. Even if he dies… as long as we retrieve the seeds later, that’s it.

Seed….

‘Yes, the guy who divided Karuna was also related to the guardian.’

I didn’t think much about it at the time, but now that the fact was thrust before my eyes, it was something I had to think about carefully.

“What exactly does the seed mean?”

– Seeds are part of the power that sustains this land. A power that was originally supposed to reside here in the white tree.

– The seed has been threatened all along. The Hall of Guardians was also destroyed at that time. All the other guardians are dead, and now only one life remains.

“How did it get to them?”

– We couldn’t keep the seeds. So I sent it out.

– with guardians who have sworn to return the seed here one day.

Perhaps the seed wandered the world after facing a crisis.

And that is what eventually resided in the bodies of Karen and Karuna. It seemed like the guardians had their own circumstances as well.

– The seed is with you.

Pointing to Karen.

– Seed of the morning.

Pointing to Karuna and the Black Knight.

– Seeds of the night.

“….”

The Black Knight was silent.

Karen and Karuna also hesitated in embarrassment.

The guardians seemed to have taken advantage of the gap and dragged their bodies.

– Now let’s go.

“What…”

– Help the world be where it belongs.

– It won’t hurt. This is your noble mission.

Karen and Karuna couldn’t shake them off.

“No… we…”

“The strength… the strength is gone…”

A choice occurred to Kang Seol.

[The twin knights’ innate power came from the seeds that supported the world. The guardians who tended the seeds now say they must return to the White Tree. How would you respond to them?]

1. If it must happen…

2. Don’t be funny! They signed a contract with me!

3. How can I trust you guys to be guardians?

4. Can’t we just return the seeds?

It seemed like if Karuna and Karen hesitated, they would touch the white tree.

Paaaa-!

Snowfall immediately took action.

And someone else too.

“stop!”

Paaaa-!

The Black Knight shook off the guardians clinging to Karen. Snowfall saw that he was moving towards Karen and warded off Karuna’s surroundings.

– … What are you doing?

“Get your hands off my sister.”

– Are you rejecting your mission? You too are part of the mission.

Kang Seol countered.

“Nonsense! “Birth for someone’s purpose is nothing but a curse.”

“… Yes, we will decide for ourselves the reason for our lives.”

– Even though the world will find stability again thanks to your sacrifice?

The Black Knight says:

“What do you know?”

After hearing the answer, Kang Seol smiled and added.

“It would be better for a world that has to be maintained in that way to collapse as soon as possible.”

As he said that, he remained alert so that he could respond to any situation.

Because the guardian’s reaction was unusual. – … Then,

it was time

for us to fulfill our responsibilities as guardians .

Kooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!

Pusssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss of of of ofssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssv…

The black snake’s maw breaks through the door of the hall.

“That… that bastard!”

“I guess I won’t be able to avoid a fight this time…”

The appearance of uninvited mobs.

But the guardians’ reaction was different.

– Mobs, don’t be angry.

– I’m not trying to fight. I did it wrong.

Slurp…

The black snake’s body gradually shrunk as it entered the hall. Its body was transformed into an appearance similar to that of the guardians rather than a snake.

A guy wearing loose clothes and a white eyepatch that matches his uniform.

“Perhaps the one remaining guardian I mentioned earlier…”

– Mobs is the last guardian protecting the White Tree.

“….”

– Mobs is getting angry. Mobs hate fighting.

“You attacked us just now?”

– Mobs attack everyone who enters the hall. Mobs have no malice.

Slurp…

Mops approached Kangseol.

Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr…

Mobs speaking the language of beasts.

Kang Seol laughed helplessly and unconsciously stroked Mobs’ head.

– thank you.

“… what?”

– thank you.

Mobs repeating the words thank you.

Slurp…

Mobs approached the guardians and expressed his thoughts so that only they could hear.

– Mobs? That’s not allowed.

– Think again about that…

– Do you believe them?

I couldn’t tell what was being said, but it seemed like Mobs had made a big decision.

– Such… Mobs…

– … I respect your decision.

One of the guardians approached Kangseol and the others and said:

– I’ll give you some time. But I must come back here someday. When the white tree’s life comes to an end, Mother Earth will also see its end.

“Time? “Why do I suddenly have time?”

– … Mobs said he would buy time.

“… what?”

Mobs looking back.

Put a smile on your face.

– thank you.

Pusssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss…

Mobs’ body began to crumble. For a moment, Kang Seol recalled a past memory.

Because I felt like I knew what she appreciated. What he learned while retrieving the remains of many horses is that horses that are at a certain level or near death often vaguely realize his identity.

‘No way…’

Kang Seol stretched out her hand.

“no! Mobs!”

Pusssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssingly in ins, Pusssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss of of the Mobs…

Mobs body is completely broken.

“….”

Instead, a small egg appeared underneath it. It looked exactly like the egg from which Mops was born.

– Mobs gave up his energy of this life.

– But mobs don’t die. As long as white trees exist.

– The guardian will forever protect the white tree.

– See you again, Mobs.

The guardians hugged the mob egg and shed tears.

“Mobs…”

the Guardian says.

– I’ll let you go. But… make sure you come back before it’s too late. Before Mother Earth runs out of breath…

Pusssss…

Particles of blue light scattered from the remains of the Mobs.

It wrapped around Kang Seol’s body in an instant.

[The lore of ‘Mobs’ begins.]
