The 31st Piece Turns the Tables

Episode 548

Twaaaa…

Chamaaaa…

When the cold water touched her skin, Kang Seol opened her eyes.

Kwaruuuuuuuuuuuuu!

The sky seemed to be angry and rained down lightning, creating an illusion of someone with spray and fog.

– Wake up! The pride of Mesph has been given to you, so why do you hesitate? Destroy! Destroy as much as you want!

It was a welcome from the Golden King Fuki.

A self-indulgent guy who knows nothing but messed up everything. Kang Seol had no idea why she was lying on an empty sandy beach.

It was like waking up after a long surgery after fainting and having no idea what had happened to you.

Only a pounding headache and a heavy heart tormented Snowfall along with the surging waves.

What do you know about meth?

Kwaruuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu!

Fuki’s illusion soon took on a different form. Countless illusions of the same size appeared.

“….”

I saw familiar faces.

Kiritoki Yuhyeon and other words.

The illusions of horses that left a strong impression on Kang Seol were expressed in more detail than other illusions, while those that did not were blurred and their facial features were not even visible.

A total of 18 people.

Their gaze is burdensome.

Now… yes, it has become annoying.

Kwarrrrrng-!

Words disappear.

And in its place is the illusion of the first dragon I recently encountered.

– … When will we reach freedom?

What does it mean?

– When the midnight sun arrives, will the world you and… really become closer?

Nier.

– That would be great. I really… would like it.

why?

– Because you want that kind of world. I’m still young and don’t know much, but you showed me the world. If that’s the world you want… I hope that kind of world comes too.

Kwaruuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu!

The illusion of the first dragon, Nier, disappeared and in its place appeared the back of a troll, whose entire body was covered in muscles and black curses.

“… don’t go.”

It’s jamad.

Snowfall on the sandy beach honestly spoke out the words that came to mind. A sincerity that I couldn’t express at the time.

“Stay by my side.”

Ssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss going

going going the phantom looking back?

– Kang Seol So, can you answer my questions now?

Jamard asks his question. Just as the waves reach the sandy beach and break, the question breaks when it reaches the snowfall and the sound also disappears.

Snowfall could not answer.

At least for now.

– I know that you cannot answer my questions. So I will leave. You will worry and be confused. And if I still can’t find the answer… I’ll ask you again then… Our meeting won’t be too far away.

Phuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu also be behaved:

Jamard’s illusion also disappeared.

“…Okay, everyone leave.”

Because I’m tired too.

Now it doesn’t really matter what happens.

It is a lonely and arduous path.

That’s how Kang Seol faces frustration. The bigger the goal, the more the situation does not go as desired, the greater and crueler the frustration one faces.

And the futility of everything instills boredom and futility. They say that your goal is like an illusion that can never be reached. In the end, we even erase how we got here, what sacrifices we made, and what determination we had.

Sigh…

Snowfall didn’t care about the water level that had already reached the tip of her chin. I just let it happen.

“snowfall.”

Are the auditory hallucinations not over?

A familiar and trustworthy voice was heard.

“Are you welcome this time? … Ur.”

Kang Seol lay down.

He sinks into the water.

A man with long, white, curly hair was reflected in the hazy landscape above the water.

The man stretched out his hand.

Faaaaaaaaaaa!

“Kehee…cough…”

“…Stupid bastard.”

“… Ur?”

cry

He faced the snowfall with a cold expression.

Shoot…

Surprisingly, when he stood next to Snowfall, the water could not easily approach and hesitated.

He sat down next to Kang Seol.

“If I hadn’t come, you would have drowned in magic and died.”

“… iced coffee!”

Only then was Kang Seol able to remember why she was here and what had happened.

“Fuki, you son of a bitch….”

“You seem to have the energy to lose your temper. I thought everyone had given up.”

“…Are you back?”

Snowfall looked into Ur’s eyes.

Ur also met his eyes.

The mage noticed that Kang Seol was hurt. Why did you get that injury?

I can’t feel Jamard’s energy.

And the vision from earlier…

Ur said what Kang Seol wanted to hear the most.

“Yes, I’m back.”

“….”

It filled Snowfall’s big hole pretty quickly.

“Where am I? “Immortality?”

“You passed out and this is where you are unconscious. The mind is fleeting. “This place is an illusion created by magical power and the dissonance within you.”

“… I can’t understand what you’re saying.”

“Although it is short, there is some time for conversation. “If that’s the case, enough time will pass for you to blink outside.”

Snowfall asked Ur.

“Have you seen immortality?”

“If the nasty woman outside is immortal, then yes.”

“…isn’t it strong?”

“He is the strongest human I have ever seen.”

“More than Azran?”

“The Azran I saw was only a fragment of him and not the real thing. And the guy outside now is clearly real. However… there is a possibility that there may be multiple entities.”

Another question.

“Can we win?”

“You can’t win.”

Cruel reality.

“You and me too?”

“of course. Now we can’t beat him no matter what we do. “If I had the strength I had before, it would have been a different story.”

Ur’s confidence has always been amazing.

I was jealous, but right now it was more important to accurately gauge the opponent’s power.

“Immortal is the guy who challenged the sky. “I know you were a great mage in the past, but…”

“Are you saying you’re going to be pushed out by a guy who’s immortal or something?”

“….”

Ur burst out laughing.

“Tsk… Hahahahaha! “Kangseol, you are mistaken about something.”

“… what?”

“Yes, what you have experienced is probably at that level at best. But you are overlooking the fact that I, who you do not know, also exists. “Challenge the sky… I guess you’re talking about ascension, right?”

Kang Seol frowned and asked.

“How do you know that?”

“Have you ever thought about snowfall? “I wonder why I, who gave humans the fire of magic and reason, was sealed in the cursed abyss of Alkatron.”

Kangseol recalled the words of the bottomless pit that sealed Ur.

– We suppress the evil within us with reason, not goodness.

– The source of all sin.

– You will never raise your head and see the light again.

– Forget Ur with Alkatron.

If it is true that Imperial Khagon sealed him, he must have committed some crime.

What was the mistake he committed that he had to be sealed in the bottomless pit for eternity?

Kangseol imagines one possibility.

“No way, you….”

“The first human to knock on heaven’s door.”

Ur his eyes reminisce about the distant past. The past is now stained.

“That is me.”

“So…”

The first human in Pandea to attempt ascension. Ur, the original and original mage who created magic from the stars.

“Kagon was a more messed up empire than you thought. They were rotten and took me down for daring to challenge God. For the reason that no one should ever commit the same blasphemous act as me again… Hehehe…” “

… Why did you fail to ascend to heaven?”

Ur looked away.

It seemed as if he recognized somewhere other than this place.

“I think it would be best to talk about that later. If this continues, your head will fall off first.”

“….”

“The guy outside is the strongest wizard I’ve ever faced. Can’t win. “At least for now.”

Kang Seol lowered his head.

Ur continued.

“… But you can fight.”

“… what?”

“You can be very upset about what he is trying to do. If you take advantage of this enormous magical power that has engulfed your body, whether by misfortune or good fortune.”

Ur’s way of speaking seemed somehow pointless and somehow sloppy.

“If you do that, you might see a path. how is it? If this is enough…”

But.

“I don’t think it’s much different from the path you’ve taken. “Is this just my useless meddling?”

Snowfall also followed that path. A path of endless struggle.

“… this storm. “I can’t rule.”

“I’ve just never governed. If you are afraid of the challenger outside, trust me who is with you. “You won’t end up in such a miserable situation.”

A magical power so strong that it cannot be controlled. It’s a golden opportunity to pour everything out without worrying about what comes next.

Pisik…

Kang Seol laughs.

Ur smiles accordingly.

“Kangseol, you and I are different. “We will probably never have the opportunity to be together like this again.”

“Because we can’t mix.”

“… right. Our time flows differently and is fundamentally different. However, this time I will be able to imitate Hana, even if it is clumsy. “It will be the first and last spectacular and wasteful fireworks display.”

Ur holds out his hand.

Appears to offer a handshake.

“So… hang out.”

“….”

“It would be such a wonderful moment that it would be a shame to enjoy it alone.”

Sigh…

the two hands are folded.

Ur and Kang Seol looked at each other and smiled like evil spirits. Then turn your head and look at the same place.

* * *

Kwaruuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu!

A drastic change occurred around the snowfall that Ur joined.

A dissonant sound of collision, release, and explosion of magical power, as if an instrument made of thunder were being played.

Kwahiah ahhhhhhhhhhhhh!

The chaotic magic tore through Snowfall’s body, and conversely, Snowfall’s shadow wrapped around the magic.

A being that cannot and should not be mixed, but is nevertheless mixed by the pouring magic power.

The facial features of the person wearing the frayed robe made of shadows were completely obscured by the hood, creating a bizarre figure that radiated only black darkness.

It was small and shabby, but anyone who could observe the magic power fluctuating within that shabby appearance would immediately realize how dangerous this being was.

Whioooooo…

[Takes the form of a night crow.]

…

[The night crow is in challenger state!]

[Night crow: In evil attack state.]

[Power: King of Shadows and Power: Mage of Origin mixed together. ]

…

“Haaa… Hahaha….”

“Kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk?” … “Haaa… Hahaha…” “kkkkkkk…”

The voice of the mouthless musician rang out over and over again. Proof that they have not yet completely merged.

But soon the voices merged into one.

“This… might be worth a try.”

The evil craftsman uttered a command.

〔You can move now.〕

Kwaaaaaaaaaa!

The front line that had stopped was revived again.

Ur’s words had such a powerful effect that the entire battlefield stopped for a moment. However, only the Adjuster and the Immortal knew that he had gone too far in order to avoid interfering with his union with Snowfall.

Ur’s magic power was almost depleted due to the use of multiple control spirits, but it was only a minor problem compared to the pure magic power left behind by the death of the Golden King.

It is the remains left behind by a race specialized in magical power and a being worthy of the status of a king, who burned his entire body. Not only was it valuable, but the storehouse of magic had to be filled to bursting.

The immortal and the evil craft faced each other’s existence.

“….”

“….”

Siloi complained.

“…I guess I should at least take Bisha and Grabo.”

Her face hardened and she wondered how to deal with that shabby being who seemed to have monopolized the magical power of the world.

Meanwhile, the first sound of the musical instrument rang out.

Huuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu

of a dissonance of magical power that will tear your ears apart.

But this too was music to someone.

[Night Crow: The evil craftsman uses the Power: Nocturne.]

…

Whioooooooo…

A dangerous power that seems to devour the night.

Shiloi said, twisting his mouth.

“It won’t be possible to reach Bisha.”
