Side Story Chapter 13 - Abnormal Phenonon
A sudden fuss from the ntor.
Seo-joon hurriedly expanded his senses.
It was because he hadn't regained his full strength yet, so there was a possibility that he might have missed the threat he didn't know.
Seo-joon looked around, concentrating on his feelings.
However, I can only feel the presence of the ntor making a fuss.
Other than that, I didn't feel any signs of anything else.
< Kim Seo-joon, hurry up! >
Nevertheless, he was a ntor who seed quite urgent.
Flash!
Seo-joon burst into TRP's speed and headed to where the ntor was.
< Here! Here! >
When I approached, the ntor was hurriedly waving his small arms and legs.
“What are you doing?”
< Hey! excuse ! Take a look! >
When Seo-jun asked, the ntor stopped hurriedly with his arms folded.
Then, he stretched out his index finger and pointed in one direction.
Following the ntor's finger, Seo-joon's gaze moved naturally.
And the place I looked far away.
It was a place with no special features.
A dark forest tinged with darkness.
It was nothing more and nothing less.
just one thing.
“……?”
There was just sothing oddly shaped lying beneath his sight.
Seojun narrowed his eyes and confird it.
“cane...?”
It was confird that it was sothing in the form of a cane that reached the height of Seo-jun's neck.
The tip was bent in the shape of a question mark, and it looked similar to the staff commonly used by wizards.
Therefore, it is correct to say that it is stuck on the floor rather than lying there.
‘what?'
Seojun tilted his head involuntarily.
That would be the case, but what was the point of a cane all of a sudden?
Are there any trees that grow naturally nearby that have roots that look like that?
For what reason did it pierce through the floor?
While there are trees that look like money bugs, there are also trees with cane roots...
‘It's impossible.'
Seojun imdiately shook his head.
So I couldn't help but think that soone had put it there on purpose.
But again, it was strange to do so.
So, I did sothing to say it was artificial.
A stick that can be seen from afar.
It was stuck in the middle of the forest as if soone had abandoned it.
Literally, it was just stuck.
If soone had artificially inserted it, it would have been for so purpose.
But the cane was just stuck there without any purpose.
Even now, even with Seo-jun's senses, that cane was unrecognizable.
Precisely, it was recognized by the senses, but
it was identified with the surrounding trees.
So it made more sense to think of it as a tree with cane roots.
It's strange to think that soone put it in.
Even if it's not, there's sothing strange about it.
It was literally just weird.
It seed I had to go and check it out myself.
That's when Seo-jun was about to move slowly toward the cane.
rustle.
For an instant, the grass near the staff shook greatly.
At the sa ti, sothing huge erged from the grass.
“Kreuk Kreuk Kreuk...”
It was none other than the Witchbeast who lived in the Dark Forest.
“what...?”
Seo-joon hesitated for a mont at the sudden appearance of the demon.
That's because he wasn't even aware that there was a witch there.
Of course, I haven't fully regained my strength yet, and
above all, it's true that it's hard to perceive because there's a little bit of distance.
However, Seo-jun had expanded his senses to the maximum a little while ago.
I don't know if it's a wand.
The magic beast should have recognized it right away, so it was normal.
But for so reason, Seo-joon couldn't recognize the magic beast at all.
And it was not only Seojun, but also the demons.
“Kreukreuk...”
The Witchbeast was completely unaware of the existence of Seojun and ntor, and just approached the cane as if possessed.
Seo-joon paused for a mont and watched the demon's actions.
That's when the Witchbeast approached the staff.
gurgling gurgling!
Suddenly, the monster's flesh began to swell here and there.
The flesh of his whole body was red and blue like a charred black.
Eh eh eh!
It began to deform strangely, as if a piece of flesh had been glued together!
Just like the Chira in Greek mythology.
I don't know if it's because of that, but it felt like it had beco much more ferocious.
“...... What?”
I swear it was the first sight I had ever seen in my life.
If it was similar, it seed to be at least similar to the phenonon of distortion that occurred on Earth.
However, the Distortion had a precursory symptom of distorted magical power.
But now there are no prognostic symptoms.
I didn't feel any signs of magical power!
< What is it? >
The ntor also asked Seo-jun if he was seeing it for the first ti.
and.
“Suddenly sothing happened... what is that!”
Carls also seed to be seeing it for the first ti.
And did he hear Carl's cry?
slap!
The transford demon beast's gaze quickly turned this way.
Carls hurriedly shut his mouth, but it was already too late.
“Kwoaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!”
The terrifying roar of the transford beast spread throughout the dark forest.
At the sa ti, a ghastly murderous feeling pierced the skin numbly.
“What kind of energy is this…”
Cals looked at the distorted beast with a shocked expression.
It's different from the normal magic beast.
That monster that was not hideous to the point of being grotesque.
Judging from the montum he felt, he was on the level of a sword master.
Simply put, it was a level that the current Kals could barely deal with with all their might.
A sword master class magic beast.
No matter how dark the forest is, how the heck...
“Do you want to try?”
At that mont, Seojun's voice penetrated Carl's ears.
“What do you an…?”
Seo-joon said, pointing to the monster that was attacking him while scattering fierce montum.
“that. Can you handle it?”
“You an ?”
“then. I was attracted to aggro because of soone.”
Right then.
“Kwoaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!”
The scream of the monster that approached in an instant resonated violently in the eardrum.
On the other hand, Seo-joon seems to be entrusting it to Carls.
was not taking any action.
Anxiety between monts.
Kwap!
Carls grabbed the spear to break it.
Then, without hesitation, he flung himself at the attacking beast.
The surrounding scenery flicks past and the gap quickly narrows.
And did he even notice that?
The guy who attacked Seo-jun suddenly turned his head toward Carl.
“Kwoaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!”
A tearing roar followed.
A trendous life force attacked Carls and his mind ached.
Woo woo woo woo!
Then, the beast's sharp forepaws swung as if tearing through space.
terrifying feeling.
I bit Carl's teeth and swung the spear I was holding onto.
Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!
riotous noise.
‘It went in properly.'
Carls called out for joy inwardly.
Ran's blow went in well.
Cals assured that the blow that had just occurred was a power that even the emperor could not easily handle.
So, no matter how much of a sword master class witch is
...
For an instant, the roar of the beast broke Calth's thoughts.
A monster full of rage.
It sounded the alarm bell imprinted on Carl's instincts without rest.
and montarily
Char-Hak!
“Cheuk...!”
The area around Carl's chest was cut long and his body flew through the air.
Kwa Dang Tang!
After flying through the air, Carl's body hit the ground roughly.
A pain as if every joint had been shattered raged through Carl's whole body.
“Kwoaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!”
A terrifying scream followed.
The demonic figure he looked at was unscathed.
‘It didn't work...?'
Carls couldn't believe the sight at all.
Clearly, Ran's blow was properly entered.
It couldn't be said to be the sa as what Seo-jun showed, but it was a blow with sufficient power nonetheless.
But to think she didn't get a single wound...
“Damn it...!”
Carls forcibly raised his body from the floor.
It is never too late to appreciate it later.
Now is the ti to move.
but.
“Kwoaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!”
The Witchbeast's actions were one beat faster than Carl's judgnt.
Whee-ae-ae-aeae!!
The blow of the demonic beast rushing in as if tearing through space.
Die.
That can't be avoided.
Carls closed his eyes tightly.
obscured vision.
between them.
“Is it still too much?”
With Seojun's low voice.
Kwa-ang!
A terrifying explosion was heard.
belch?
Carls slowly opened his closed eyes.
“Kwoaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!”
The place I looked at was a demon screaming in pain.
And the back of Seo-jun, who was blocking Carl's front, was visible.
Seo-joon looked at the demon screaming.
The blow Cals just cast.
It couldn't be said to be perfect, but it was a blow that had enough of Ran's skill.
Even so, the Witchbeast did not suffer a single wound.
Even Seo-joon's blow just now only scread.
He suffered no fatal injuries.
‘Is there sothing on the wand?'
It seed I needed to check.
Seojun held Longinus's spear lightly.
It is not easy to deal with that demonic beast with an ordinary blow.
However, the situation is not good for writing Cheonwol Yuseongchang.
Seo-joon awakened the senses of his whole body one by one.
Then, he slowly opened his mouth towards Carl.
“I'll teach you later when you master rannachal, but for now, consider it a pre-learning and watch it with your own eyes.”
mont with him
Ku-gu-gu-gu-gu-gu-gung...!!
An unknown energy began to soar through Seo-jun's body.
Carls looked blankly at Seo-joon.
The one that drew out the magical power.
It wasn't even a burst of montum.
But it's different.
Sothing different.
The problem was I couldn't figure out what it was.
It's obviously sothing different, but I can't perceive the difference.
in the stupid mind.
In an instant, Longinus's spear pierced the Witchbeast's body.
The magic power of the three-way battle contained within it surges.
The surge of magical power explodes the surroundings at once, facing a terrible liberation.
Cals had captured the whole scene with his eyes, but
for so reason he couldn't comprehend it. This is because
all of the above was accomplished in an instant and
was accomplished without even a single gap. The error of
the perfect
zero state.
When faced with that distant area.
Kwak Kwak!!!
“under... Ha ha ha....”
Carls is the sky above the sky.
No, it felt like I was peeping at the universe above the sky.
#
A monster that could not be shattered and disappeared without trace.
“Ah, the foot sight was a little too much.”
It was then that Seo-joon was able to recognize his mistake.
It was necessary to deal with it quickly, and
I thought that it would not die with an ordinary blow, so I included the trick of the foot stroke.
I thought it was a bit excessive.
Hegisa's balgyeong (發勁) is a state beyond the unity of body and soul.
There weren't many beings who could withstand the power of foot mirrors.
“It's a waste of a dead body...”
If it survives the blow of Ran by Kals, the value of the leather will be that much better.
Unfortunately, however, the Witchbeast disappeared without a trace.
“I can't help it.”
Seo-jun swallowed his regret and checked Carl's condition.
Carls slowly turned his head to check.
But why?
“Ha... ha ha ha...”
Carls was out of his mind sowhere.
I was just laughing as if I had lost my mind while staring at the empty space.
Fortunately, the wound near my chest didn't seem to be a big problem, so
I thought it would be better to leave it alone for now.
Seo-joon slowly headed towards the cane, leaving Carl's mind behind him.
a place so far away.
“There is nothing particularly different.”
Again, I didn't feel anything special.
Could it really be a tree with cane roots?
It seed that the roots might have protruded for so reason.
Seo-joon slowly approached the cane.
And just then.
“Ugh...!”
Suddenly, an unknown aura ca over Seo-joon's whole body.
It was literally an unknown energy. It's a strange aura that I can't explain because
I've never felt it before
.
That energy began to wrap around Seo-jun.
And then, just like the demon, Seo-joon's flesh began to move bizarrely.
It felt as if Seo-jun's very existence was twisted.
“Sigh...!”
Seo-joon hurriedly released the magic of Samdanjeon (三丹田).
Before long, he began to resist the aura covered by the mana that soared in the three-stage battle.
The magic of the triple battle and the unknown aura.
The two fought repeatedly, biting each other.
Seo-joon couldn't help but be slightly surprised by that appearance.
The limitless magic power of three stages.
He hadn't regained all his powers yet,
but he still possessed trendous power.
Kwaddeuk!
Even so, Seo-joon couldn't easily shake off the energy that covered him.
sharp confrontation.
< Seojun Kim! Do you have anything special? >
At that mont, the ntor started approaching Seo-jun.
Now Seo-joon could only endure.
Perhaps the ntor will not be able to hold on and will be twisted as it is.
Seo-joon hurriedly reached out and grabbed the staff.
Then, he imdiately put the wand into the kibisis.
however.
Took.
The wand did not enter the kibisis.
It's like you can't get this item.
Kibisis pushed away the wand.
I didn't have ti to think of a reason.
“Don't co!”
Seojun hurriedly shouted at the approaching ntor.
Fortunately, the ntor didn't co any further and
Seo-joon concentrated all his nerves to suppress the energy of the staff.
How much ti had passed like that?
“ha...! ha...!”
Seo-joon
was able to finally suppress the energy exploding from the staff only after pouring out almost all his magic power.
“What the hell...”
Seo-joon looked at the cane with an absurd look.
After that, the ntor approached , keeping a close eye on .
< What the hell is that about, monsters are so grotesque...? >
The ntor, who had been speaking for a mont, tilted his head and stopped talking.
Then he carefully examined the wand.
< Uh...ra? >
I tilted my head once again.
At the sa ti, the expression also looked sowhat unusual,
as if ‘why is this here...?' It was a look like that.
Seojun quietly waited for the ntor's words.
Soon after, the ntor slowly opened his mouth.
< This... is the director's favorite cane? >
“Yes?”
Seojun tilted his head involuntarily.
There is only one existence that the ntor calls the director.
It was only Irina, the director of the Transcendent Academy.
that ans that.
It ant that this wand belonged to Irina.
But how is that?
“What do you an?”
< Wait a minute...! >
The ntor looked at the stretched cane as well, perhaps thinking that it made no sense.
So several checks followed.
< No matter how you look at it, you're right. I rember this clearly because the director cherished it very much . < Yes! >
The ntor nodded vigorously as if he was certain.
“What are you using this for?”
< That's what I'm good at... The director told not to touch that much. If you touch it, he gets really angry... >
The ntor scratched the back of his head and blurted out his words.
< Since it's a staff, isn't it a magic weapon? >
“Hmm...”
Seo-joon looked at the staff once more.
Usually, there are two major cases of saving things.
or extrely valuable.
Or have precious mories.
However, this staff was a staff with no special features except for the energy currently suppressed by Seo-jun.
It didn't seem worth it to the extent that Irina could use it.
If so, it ans that there are precious mories
.
No, I couldn't even figure out why the thing I cherished so much was here in the first place.
well anyway
“I think this is the reason for the abnormal phenonon Aren was talking about.”
Like the strange energy that twisted the magic beast.
The sa goes for the phenonon of not entering the kibisis.
The abnormal phenonon Aren said was caused by this wand.
so.
“Let’s clear the forest quickly and go to Aren.”
I didn't know if I could find out sothing by bringing it to Aren.
#
Seojun quickly swept across the dark forest and wiped it out.
Aren's request was also a request, but
it was because he had to clear the forest of darkness in order to receive 100 billion gold.
“Ha... ha ha ha...”
Cals was once again out of his mind at such a sight.
The dark forest is an unknown and abandoned land from which no one can return alive.
A place that no one would go to even if they paid billions of dollars.
It was a space where the concept of ‘clearing' could not be applied in the first place.
But what now...
“This should have been enough, right?”
Aren't you sweeping away such a dark forest as if you were going to drink it!
No, it wasn't sweeping, it was cleaning.
The Demonic Beast residing in the Dark Forest is almost completely dried up.
Even the process took only a few days!
Of course, monsters are periodically born in the Dark Forest.
As long as you don't push the dark forest itself.
It was not possible to completely eliminate the demonic beasts protruding from this place.
Still, for the ti being... no, for a while...
no, maybe in this lifeti, there would be no headaches caused by the Dark Forest.
Aren's residence ca back like that.
“I think it's about this...”
Seojun looked around and checked Aren's place.
And because of the teleportation, Seo-joon still didn't know the way to Aren's place.
“Teleport is convenient, but it's hard to find the way.”
If we et this ti, ask where we live properly.
Or ask them to make a teleport scroll that will take them to their place of residence.
I felt like I had to do one or the other.
Seojun continued to wander in search of Aren's place.
As always when you look for it.
It was because he thought Aren would find him on his own.
But why this ti?
Even after a long ti had passed, Aren did not show up.
< Maybe he hasn't co yet? >
In response to the ntor's question, Seo-joon nodded slightly.
That would be the case when Seo-jun went to the dark forest.
It was because Aren went to find the whereabouts of Beserk and the emperor.
However, the Dark Forest ended unexpectedly quickly,
so there was a possibility that Aren might not have returned.
“Are you here already?”
A familiar voice was heard at that mont.
There, Aren was looking at Seo-joon with an absurd look.
Seo-joon said with a half-color.
“Fortunately you were there. I was wondering if you hadn't co back yet.”
“I had just returned. No, but have you already finished your work? How many days has it been?”
“haha. I wonder why More than that, Aren-nim, have you already finished your work?”
“Well, I also happened to...”
Aren showed a small smile as if he was embarrassed himself.
Then all of a sudden
I asked when I found Carls laughing as if he had lost his mind.
“Why is the crown prince like that again?”
“I don’t know either. All of a sudden it gets weird, and it goes like that every ti I have a chance. But if you leave it alone, it will get better on its own, so I just left it.”
At the sa ti, Seo-jun waved his hand as if to say not to worry.
Aren turned his gaze away from Carl's.
Then, looking at Seojun, he slowly opened his mouth.
“How did you go? Anything suspicious?”
In response to Aren's question, Seo-joon raised the cane he was holding.
Then he explained the short things related to the wand.
“The Witchbeast caused a transformation?”
Aren's eyes widened in surprise.
Then he began examining the wand carefully.
“Can I check it out for a minute?”
“Sure. I'm suppressed, so I'll be fine.”
Seojun imdiately handed the wand to Aren.
Aren took the wand and slowly closed his eyes.
Whoaaaaaagh!
Before long, strange magic power burst out of Aren's body.
How much ti had passed like that?
“Can you release the suppressed energy?”
Aren said carefully.
Seo-joon was a little worried, but he quickly nodded.
Aren should be able to suppress the energy sufficiently.
Seojun released the suppressed energy, and
Aren perfectly controlled the energy of the staff.
How much ti has passed again like that?
“......!!”
Suddenly, Aren's face turned to surprise.
“I couldn’t believe it…”
Aren slowly opened his eyes.
There was an unbelievable astonishnt in Aren's expression.
“Do you have any guesses?”
Seojun asked Aren carefully.
And a word from Aren that followed.
“Do you know anything about the first Transcendent?”
It was a word that was completely unexpected.
