Chapter 190 - The Consecration Ceremony
The Second Cataclysm?
At the words of the swordsman, Seojun tilted his head.
At the sa ti, the team mbers tilted their heads as if they couldn't understand.
That's because the cataclysm could never have happened.
A cataclysm is a disaster based on Beserk's existence.
So the words of the second cataclysm, that is.
It could only an that Beserk was alive and not dead.
“It could be.”
That's why Seo-joon shook his head resolutely.
Beserk is obviously dead.
Exactly, it disappeared.
This is an undeniable fact.
“I don't know why you're so sure, but...”
Geomseong calmly continued to speak at Seo-jun's appearance.
It's just that Distortion dungeons have beco more active all over the world.
And the movent of the suspicious Jinrihoe.
To be precise, the appearances of not taking any action or answering about the existence of Beserk.
‘Dungeons of Distortion have beco more active?'
At the words of the swordsman, Seo-joon's eyes flashed.
The Dungeon of Distortion was a phenonon caused by the existence of Beserk.
Of course, it was a possibility suggested by insight.
However, he faced Beserk himself.
It turned out to be true.
That's why Beserk is now extinct.
Distortion dungeons also deserved to disappear.
But is it getting more active?
‘Hmm...'
Seojun thought for a mont.
Nurous possibilities tangled in my head.
And there were two possibilities that were sorted out.
First, Beserk did not die.
However, Seojun imdiately shook his head.
It was because he had witnessed with his own two eyes that Beserk perished along with the collapse of the universe.
And in the first place, the collapse of the world was enough force to drag Seo-jun into the space of the boundary.
Power to the point of violating the world's laws.
I don't know if Beserk had released its full power.
However, Beserk at the ti was in an incomplete state.
It did not have enough strength to defy the collapse of the universe.
Seo-joon was sure.
Beserk is dead.
So the second possibility.
Just before Beserk is destroyed.
Soone took that power.
And that soone was very likely to be an unidentified being who tried to kill Seo-joon.
However, Seo-joon could not easily nod his head at this possibility.
That would be the case, how on earth would he take Beserk's power and
in what other way would he use that power?
‘Hmm...'
Deepening worries.
It was then.
smart.
“Hunter Kim Seo-joon? this is aria I heard that the swordsman ca from Korea...”
Suddenly, Aria's voice ca from outside the door.
Seojun brushed off his thoughts and answered.
“Co on in.”
Click.
With Seo-joon's answer, the door to the room opened, revealing Aria and Robert.
Perhaps she had co dressed up, her golden hair was shining.
Arya gracefully greeted the Sword Saint.
“nice to see you. Her na is Aria, Queen of England. I've heard a lot from the previous queen, and it's an honor to et you like this.”
“Are you Beatrice’s granddaughter?”
“……?”
Arya tilted her head at the words of the Sword Master.
Judging by the expression on his face, it seed that he had not understood the aning of the words of the swordsman.
Seo-jun quickly figured out the reason and winked at Lee Ha-yoon.
Lee Ha-yoon imdiately attached a soul interpreter (?) to the swordsman.
The swordsman spoke again.
“Are you Beatrice’s granddaughter?”
“Ah yes.”
Arya was then able to nod her head.
The swordsman calmly looked at Arya.
His qualities as a Hunter were not visible at all.
To be honest, she was nothing more than a weak woman.
But why?
The swordsman could feel the dignity of a certain king in Arya.
Sothing that cannot be explained by the logic of power alone.
The swordsman spat out his words.
“Better than Beatrice.”
“hot!”
Arya bowed her head.
The swordsman slightly turned his gaze to look at Robert next to Arya.
The eyes of two people eting each other.
“At that ti, the little boy also grew up a lot.”
“You haven’t changed a thing since then.”
Their conversation ended with that.
Geomseong turned his gaze back to look at Seojun.
“so. What do you plan to do?”
Seojun answered right away.
“I have to go.”
“Then prepare imdiately. There's not much ti left—”
“By the way, don't you give a car fee?”
“……?”
The swordsman involuntarily stopped talking.
“No, it is. The cost of a plane ticket to the US is not even a penny. I wondered if I should have paid for the fare if I invited them.”
Well...
that wasn't wrong.
But that wasn't the right word.
“Does that an there is no airfare?”
“Haha...”
Geomsung was dumbfounded at Seojun's shy smile.
The hunter who defeated Beserk doesn't have any money in his hands?
The swordsman looked at Arya involuntarily.
But he quickly turned his head.
It was because Aria was looking at Seo-jun with a shocked expression.
The swordsman slowly opened his mouth.
“I will give you that much.”
“Hahaha...”
Seojun scratched the back of his head feeling embarrassed.
Then he opened his mouth again.
“Then, is there any participation fee?”
“......”
The swordsman was montarily speechless.
“What the hell are you going to spend your money on? No, where are you writing it?”
Arya nodded fiercely at the words of the Sword Master.
At the sa ti, the team mbers also twinkled their eyes as if they were curious.
“Ah, that’s it—”
To listen to Sakyamuni lectures, you have to repurchase a free pass ticket,
and while on the plane,
you want to listen to so Hwata lectures
.
“Hahahaha...”
I just laughed awkwardly.
The swordsman said with an absurd expression.
“...Go and ask for that.”
“Ah, will that work?”
At Seo-jun's words, the swordsman finally ascended to heaven in awe.
Asking for a participation fee at a place where cataclysmic heroes around the world gather.
However, the swordsman did not think deeply.
He just wanted to leave this thorny problem to the United States.
And right at that mont.
“Wait a minute!”
Arya shouted in an urgent voice.
Aria looked at her with a rather puzzled face.
“Hey, are you going to leave?”
“yes. Now we have to leave soon.”
“Are you at the bar right now?”
At Aria's question, Seo-jun looked at the sword castle.
The swordsman calmly nodded and said.
“Since you guys have been here in England for a long ti, I don’t have much ti. If we leave right now...the ti will probably be right.”
“Ah...”
Then Arya's face was filled with indescribable disappointnt.
The sad face of the world.
Seojun asked Aria.
“What's wrong?”
“That's...”
Arya was at a loss for words.
Could it be because of Aria's appearance?
“But there is no reason to go on ti.”
The swordsman calmly opened his mouth.
“He's a cataclysmic hero, and everyone is just needlessly heavy ass. Most of the people who act late are probably the majority. You have to go on ti, it's obvious that you'll wait anyway.”
The swordsman looked at Aria and continued.
“If there are still unfinished tasks, finish them.”
Aria clenched her fists at the words of the Sword Master.
Then he calmly turned his gaze and said to Seo-jun.
“Can I ask you one last favor to the Dream Team?”
#
London, the capital of England.
There was a huge crowd here.
England Wales Scotland Northern Ireland.
People were mixed regardless of region and origin.
It would not be an exaggeration to say that the entire British people flocked to the scene.
As a result, the city of London had no gap to set foot on.
Seo-joon stared blankly at the people who were filling his gaze.
Beside Seo-joon, Robert slowly opened his mouth.
“All of them ca for the enthronent ceremony of Hunter Kim Seo-joon and the Dream Team.”
“A ceremony?”
Robert nodded slightly.
“This situation could be said to be a horror created by the limitations of England.”
England Wales Scotland Northern Ireland.
England was effectively divided into four countries.
Without realizing that they were the sa people, they antagonized each other.
Even the trusted heroes of the cataclysm turned their backs on the power.
In a disaster where they should have united and joined forces, they could not unite.
Thus, Beserk, the great monster of the end, appeared.
Perhaps if Britain had joined forces as one, Beserk might not have appeared.
But Britain didn't.
Beserk was a great disaster created by a divided England.
They were helplessly trampled in front of that calamity.
And ironically, a ray of hope ca through.
They were Asian hunters who had nothing to do with England.
They were just foreigners.
Even if I run away, I don't know, there is no one to say anything.
However, in front of a monster they could not handle, they did not run away.
He fought for England without backing down.
He risked his life to fight for England, which had nothing to do with it.
England, which was busy fighting each other, peeked an unknown will from them.
And that will made it possible to unite England once again.
“Will you accept the present we prepared for you?”
Seojun could only nod slowly.
Following Robert's guidance, Seo-joon and the Dream Team moved slowly.
The place we arrived at was a large outdoor area.
And it was a gorgeously decorated venue.
“excuse ! I am Kim Seo-joon Hunter!”
“All the Dream Team mbers are there too!”
Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!
When Seo-joon appeared there, a huge crowd erupted in shouts.
A fanfare broke out with audible shouts.
“to...?”
“What is all this…?”
The expression of the team mbers began to be dumbfounded by the enormous scenery.
Seo-joon and the Dream Team continued to move with a confused feeling.
Eventually, they stopped in front of the long red carpet that crossed the crowd.
Guard knights in uniform attire were lined up next to the red carpet.
And Aria was standing on the podium at the end of the red carpet.
A look with flowing golden hair and an elegant dress.
She really looked like a queen from a fairy tale.
“Let’s go.”
At Robert's gesture, Seo-joon slowly walked down the red carpet.
The team mbers followed suit and moved along.
visor!
Every ti Seo-joon and his teammates passed by, the swords of the knights intersected, creating a majestic sight.
so under the podium.
Seojun stopped walking in front of Aria.
Aria looked at Seojun with a small smile.
Then, with a tap, he picked up the microphone placed in front of the podium.
“We owe the Dream Team a grace that can’t be repaid.”
Arya then began a rather lengthy speech.
What the Dream Team did for England.
The spirit of sacrifice displayed in the face of disaster.
And even the battle with Beserk.
“If it weren’t for these people, our Britain would be…” Aria Ji
, overflowing with emotions,
continued her speech in a slightly choked voice.
“I want to repay that grace, even a little bit…”
And so the speech ca to an end.
Arya looked at her teammates with a small smile and said.
“I would like to give the title of ‘Count’ to all mbers of the Dream Team except Hunter Kim Seo-joon.”
Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!
At the sa ti, a great shout broke out.
The European nobility system was divided into five levels.
Gonghu Baekja Man.
From the highest Duke to the lowest Baron.
And those who received this title were called ‘nobles'.
Special people who are endowed with political and legislative privileges different from ordinary people.
Therefore, it was impossible to receive a title based on ritorious achievents.
In most cases, they were only knighted.
At the sa ti, not even once in British history.
No title was ever conferred on a foreigner.
He would, too, because receiving a title ant becoming a nobleman, and
becoming a nobleman ant becoming a mber of the ruling class.
In other words, it ant to be a being that reigns over the people.
So, who in the world would put foreigners over their heads?
Even in this five-tiered title, the Count was called a high-ranking noble.
That was evident from the fact that Robert, the head of the Royal Guard Knights, was a count.
nobility above nobility.
A count was an aristocrat in just such a position.
and.
“You really didn’t turn away from us! Thank you so much!”
“My son is so mad about being like the Dream Team!”
“Aweso Dream Team!”
None of the people gathered here disputed the title.
Are they the only ones gathered here?
“If it weren't for them, Britain would be in the middle of nowhere...”
All British people watching the ceremony were sending their blessings to the Dream Team.
“People like that should beco nobles.”
“I think it would have been okay if you gave the title of Marquis.”
As if it were natural.
It seems like it's not enough.
People were welcoming the inauguration ceremony of the Dream Team.
“Uh...”
“I'm a noble...?”
At the sudden sight, the team mbers' expressions began to be dumbfounded.
But it seed like he didn't hate it, so a smile spread across his lips.
In particular, Lee Ha-yoon's expression was quite unusual.
And where did you see it?
The mont the team mbers were about to kneel toward Arya.
“You don’t have to.”
I stopped my actions at Aria's dissuade.
I ca down the podium to beco an aria.
“I hope that the Dream Team mbers will accept the title from us.”
Then he slightly bowed his head.
The Queen bows her head in front of all the English people.
It was a situation in which the whole of England could be said to bow.
But no one blad it for being wrong.
The team mbers had nothing to say.
Eventually, Arya slowly raised her head.
Then he looked at Seo-joon, who was in front of him.
“Hunter Kim Seo-joon.”
pop.
The sound cut off for a mont.
As if the pause button on the video had been pressed, the sound suddenly cut off.
A place where millions of people flock.
I couldn't even hear the sound that should co out when people gather.
In an atmosphere of strange silence.
Arya opened her mouth slowly.
“Could you... go up on the podium?”
Seojun looked at Aria with a confused feeling.
But Aria only showed a bright smile.
Seo-joon slowly climbed onto the podium.
The view from the raised platform.
The knights lined up and millions of people ca in at a glance.
After a while, Arya said with a small smile.
“Hunter Kim Seo-joon’s rits could not be repaid with anything. Even so, we want to give even a small recompense for that rit...”
Aria paused for a mont and looked at Seo-joon.
At the sa ti, the eyes of many people also turned to Seo-joon.
under such a focused gaze.
Arya opened her mouth slowly.
“I would like to give Hunter Kim Seo-joon the title of ‘Grand Duke’.”
That mont.
“......!!”
“......!!”
“......!!”
“......!!”
Hundreds of people's faces began to turn into astonishnt.
It was because of just one word.
Grand Duke.
The highest title in the European aristocratic title system, which is divided into five levels, was by far the ‘Duke'.
And the duke's title was a title bestowed only on the ritorious subjects of the founding or the royal family.
However, what ca out of Arya's mouth was not a duke, but a ‘Grand Duke'.
In fact, it was a title without a grand duke.
It was also because the Grand Duke was originally a title for the monarch of a large feudal state.
In fact, it was a position placed on the sa level as a king.
So right after the United Kingdom was unified into one country in the past.
It was a title that had been abolished since it was awarded to the Kings of Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland at the ti.
Because the Grand Duke could be said to be the sa title as Arya herself, the Queen of England.
A long silence fell.
In the anti, Aria calmly set an example for the Grand Duke toward Seo-jun on the podium.
Following him, Robert and the knights knelt.
at the sa ti.
Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!!
Huge shouts erupted from millions of people that covered the sky.
Facing that majestic scene from the podium.
Seojun suddenly rembered Shakyamuni's lecture.
[If you're not particularly unhappy right now.]
[Wouldn't that be happiness in its own way?]
[We believe in the power of positivity to make life better and strive to be happy.] [
But the surest way that your life won't be unhappy . The way is not to try to be happier than now.]
[Happiness is not the pursuit of happiness, but it may be the process of erasing the things that make you unhappy now.]
.
.
If you think about it, we are all familiar with our own lives.
Our society was a life of competition.
In a way, it was a natural life for each of us to live on our own, believing that only we could live well.
There is a prevailing mindset that we just have to live our lives in good health.
These were examples of that.
Even though they were in the sa country, those who antagonized and fought each other, dividing regions and origins.
The world has driven us to our own lives.
In that life, Beserk was literally the end.
In an unexpected end, they divided and fought each other again.
however.
“Hold your head in front of ! You can’t see Kim Seo-joon Hunter!”
“Eh tsk. Anyway, these Welsh guys are too short to be tall. Are you sleeping?”
“oh! It looks good now! In return, drink a glass of this! This is a specialty of Wales ....”
Even on the road, we did not lose our dignity.
Why?
As Seo-joon saw them, he suddenly had this thought.
In the midst of an unexpected disaster called Beserk.
“I will one day beco like Hunter Kim Seo-joon!”
“Yumma, what a rookie who just ca in. Think about defeating Captain Robert first.”
in front of that unmanageable calamity.
“If I defeat Captain Robert, will I beco the captain of the Guard?”
“Then what else can’t be done? I don't know if I can.”
“But I am not from Scotland.
maybe we
“Where is that? We are all English citizens.”
Could it be that we were discovering our true selves?
“It’s a knight!! Bayonet!!”
Chachak!
“Salute to His Majesty the Grand Duke!”
“insect!!!”
Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!!
in that majestic sight.
Seojun suddenly had such a thought.
#
A number of cataclysmic heroes stepped on Arican soil in the hero call in the United States.
And Lisberry, the Arican cataclysm hero, the demon hunter.
Risbury visited Colin, a hero of his country.
“Seojun Kim. He's coming back soon?”
“okay. So-.”
“under! I can't stay still!”
At Colin's words that followed, Risbury shook her head.
Spear Master Colin.
As a hero of cataclysm using a spear, he was a hero who was evaluated for his spear handling skills reaching the level of a master.
The problem is that he has a hot-tempered temperant along with his skills.
In fact, Risbury had expected Colin to do this to so degree.
“Arthur. Because if you go out for nothing, you won’t be able to avoid trouble.”
“under! for Asians like that?”
Colin spoke to Risbury again, sarcastically.
“You've grown old and you've beco a coward, Lisberry. Where did all the guts from hunting demons go?”
“In this case, let’s say you know where to stretch. So why don't you tell you're wise, not cowardly?”
“It's a common coward's excuse.”
But Colin was still just sarcastic.
Risbury shrugged and said.
“Does that sound co out even though you've been dealing with Beserk yourself?”
“I can say this because I have dealt with it myself.”
Colin said with a slight frown.
“Because it was a monster that could never be killed.”
“......”
At Colin’s words, Risbury was at a loss for words for a mont.
That's because Risbury also agreed.
So, in fact, most Cataclysm heroes did not believe that Seo Jun defeated Beserk.
In reality, the Distortion dungeons are not decreasing and are becoming more active.
“It must have been a slightly stronger dragon, not Bonama or Beserk.”
Colin was one of them.
Risberry, however, thought differently.
If it wasn't for Beserk that Seojun defeated.
Is there any reason for Jinrihoe to keep its mouth shut and remain silent?
Is there any reason to see the circumstances that a great voice has moved?
“Maybe.”
But Risbury didn't ntion that fact.
To be precise, I didn't bother stopping Colin.
‘What will Kim Seo-joon's skills be like... I'm curious too.'
It was true that Risberry was also curious about Seo-jun's skills.
However, there is no reason to stop him from saying that he will take care of it like that.
“Do sothing well.”
Lisberry just shrugged.
