Desire

00450 Forest

I lost.

I had to admit it. The queen raised her hand and placed it on her chest. No wounds, no pain. The power was intact, not diminished at all. No matter how many deaths she suffers, she will not be harmed. It only hurts for a very, very short time. It doesn't last long. The wound disappears as soon as it is inflicted and continues to die even if the consciousness is cut off.

She is like that. I've lived like that for thousands of years. It was made that way, and it reigned in these woods. The queen looked around. The calm lake leaves no trace of it. The blown fist blows up the lake and the crazy black rain spills through the lake's blown land.

But it also comes back as soon as the queen wishes. Azin looks down with a pale face. It was a fleeting blink of an eye. It was only a matter of time before the lake recovered its appearance. The lake was calm and serene, as if it hadn't disappeared in the first place.

[I told you.]

Adim opened his mouth. It was a weary voice.

[She can't be killed. I can't kill her either, just like she can't kill me. And so are you.]

I'm bored. Azin chews his lips well. HP is recovering. The special effects of the title Homocrisis have not yet been completed. You can continue to fight if you want to. I'm worried that my mind won't collapse, but I can survive it somehow.

“... what did you just say? ”

Azin looks down and spits out. The queen who looked up at Azin smiled thinly. She shakes her head, lowering her hand on her chest.

“I said, I lost. ”

The queen smiled and said. His eyebrows twitched. I couldn't understand. There is nothing detrimental to the Queen in this situation. No matter how much he attacks, he can't kill the queen. Behold, this space he wiped out with all his might was restored to the queen's hands at once.

‘I thought it was possible. ’

Azin's face was pale. I've seen enough odds. The wolf heart was obtained and a special ability of the Guardian was triggered. Adim was in charge of all the assistants. Instead of running away, they chose a frontal battle because they thought that even the queen of the forest would stand a chance.

Just as Ajin thought. Victory is sufficient. In fact, Azin was dominant in a head-to-head match with the Queen. The Queen's infinite power was crushed by the fist of Azin, and her body was crushed by an infinitely stacked strength. If there was only a concept of death for the queen, she would have perished from this place by Azin.

“.. why? ”

Azin stares at the Queen and spits out.

“Lost? Why? I don't understand. Why admit defeat?” “If so. ”

The queen smiles bloody. She narrows her eyes and looks up at the pain. The queen takes a step, and as she follows her steps, a dark drop of water bubbles out.

“Let's keep trying. You're strong. But no matter how strong you are, it's impossible to kill me. Do you know him?”

I know, I saved a few times. Azin has killed the queen several times, and she has risen endlessly from the dead engraved with him.

“It'll be fun to keep trying. I don't have the concept of death. No matter how many times you destroy my body, I will only resurrect from it. But what about you? Do you have an end to your power? Is there an end to your life? ”

It was ironic. The Queen's attack was prevented by Adim, but her stamina was reduced by her own attacks. Not the Wall, not the Gene Shrine. Instead of using skills as a furnace, the burden was on the body of Ajin.

If the battle continues...

How long will the escort knight's special abilities last? It will not be infinite. One day, the special abilities of the Guardian Corps will end. After that, Ajin can't afford the queen.

You will eventually lose. Ajin chewed his lips well.

“.. admitting defeat. What's that supposed to mean?” It means admitting you, respecting you. ”

The queen replies, and the black drops around her fade away. The queen raises her gaze with a steady look.

“You were strong. It was the strongest human being I've ever seen, no, ever. I have to admit. ”

It sounded like a compliment on my mouth. I didn't want to hear the queen's approval or get her approval. What Ajin really wanted was not the queen's approval.

“I thought it was fun. And I thought it was beautiful and cool. ”

The queen smiles. She recalls the madness of Azin's attack. He looked like he was going to die right now, but he didn't back down. The queen looked back. The lake house stood there as it had always been.

“I was just satisfied enough. ”

In the beginning, this was merely an entertainment for the queen. No more or less. She doesn't know how she feels. I can't empathize with human emotions. So I made an avatar, and I've lived a variety of lives on the line a few times. I threw myself into the emotions of others and explored him.

In the end, all that was left was nothing. There was no concept of empathy for the queen, just as there was no concept of death.

“You.”

The queen opened her mouth.

“It was worth more than anything I've ever seen, and it was enough to give me respect and recognition. Even I couldn't empathize with it. That is why I say I have lost. There's no point in trying any more, and I'm satisfied and enjoyed enough. ”

I couldn't understand it. Azin stares at the Queen. The queen smiles bloody.

“It was just fun in the beginning. ”

All the wars in these woods were a small entertainment for the queen. It doesn't matter if all the magic in this forest dies. I was satisfied, so I just stopped.

“I won't stop you. Do whatever you want. If you want to destroy that hut, destroy it. If you want to take the sleeping vampire inside, take him.” “.. are you serious?” “I told you. There's no point in trying any more. ”

In the queen's reply, he chewed his lips well. I tried my best to turn my head, but I couldn't figure out the queen's intentions. However, there is nothing to gain from doubting and denying the truth.

[You have been recognized by Berger Selgernia, Queen of the Black Forest.]

[You have earned the title 'Conqueror’.]

[In the queen's recognition, she inherited her power, "The Bow of Darkness."]

Conqueror.

The Black Forest has never been conquered, and the title given to its queen for her recognition.

Once a day, one of your skills can be enhanced for 3 hours.

Worship of Darkness.

The power of Berger Selgernia, ruler of the Black Forest. Once a day, with the queen's permission, we summon some of the darkness of the Black Forest outside the forest. The summoned Dark Zone is forcibly converted into Forest territory. In the territory, you can summon the magic of the forest unconditionally, and the concept of the Summoner can be assimilated by Verdinger Selgerunia to enjoy the same power as her.

Azin's expression was pale. Queen's recognition turned into title and power and was given to Azin. Conqueror title. Only once a day, but enhances skills for 3 hours. I couldn't quite understand what that meant.

Ajin was not the title of the conqueror that frightened him. Worship of Darkness. Azin has read the explanations there several times.

‘You can summon Forest Magic without conditions. ’

Categories were assigned separately. Azin presses it. It was a list of things that lived in the forest. There were names of all kinds of things. Bolaris, the commander of the Death Knights, and his army of Death Knights were there as well.

And at the top.

- Special Summon, Berger Selgernia.

When he saw it, he felt his head turn dizzy. This is amazing. Once a day, they say they need the queen's permission. If we use the Dark Worship as our territory to summon the forest, we can summon even the queen who rules the forest.

And a fairy tale of concepts. In a forest called the Dark Worship, Ajin has the same concept as the Queen. The queen has no concept of death. That is, in the forest, pain becomes a body that does not know death. And you can wield the same power as the queen.

‘.. you're crazy. ’

The unbeatable queen's recognition was beyond Azin's imagination. Being able to summon the forest outside of the forest meant that Ajin would become a country. If only the Desknights were summoned immediately, Azin would own all the knights and buffalo in Gracia. If you summon the Queen? It will depend on where you summon the Forest, but if you summon the Queen, Azin can also annihilate Gracia's nature, Verzola.

‘The reward is too great. No, this must be the right balance. ’

Considering the overwhelming power the queen had seen and the difficulty of monsters appearing in the forest, it is not too much. Azin swallows a gulp. Azin suppressed Harvest, who was leading so many Black Wizards, but with this power, Harvest's power became amusing.

“... good. ”

Azin nods. He looked down at the queen. The queen raises her gaze with a slight smile.

“.. your recognition is appreciated. ”

Azin came down, saying so. In case you haven't noticed, the queen doesn't attack. She is silent and stares at Ajin. Azin swallows his breath low in her gaze.

“.. won't you stop him? ”

“Is there a reason to stop it? ”

The queen asks, "The queen takes a step back."

“I'll leave you to it. It's a reward for amusing me. ”

The queen disappears, leaving a note. Azin sees the lake where she disappeared. He takes a small deep breath and turns around.

A year. A year. I've been waiting for this day for a year. I prepared it for today, and it worked. It was like gambling, but Ajin won. He clenched his fist. My hands are shaking.

The hut is just up ahead. It's not that far from the street. Azin carefully extends his feet. Stretching feet were heavy. My senses were a little strange. Azin notices that he is trembling.

I took a few steps. I could run as much as I wanted to, but I didn't. He hardly walks, and walks a short distance slowly to clear his mind.

First of all, what should I say?

I thought about it. I'll see you in a year. When I broke up, I had to break up. No matter what each other thought at that moment. I wonder what she was thinking. Laughing that it had to be done, she asked me to come and get her, and I wonder what she thought.

Maybe she's resigned. No, definitely. If not for that moment, she would have resigned once during her time in these woods. When the Queen came to Azin in the image of a purple star. The queen told Azin that.

Persian did not want Azin to come into the forest. I said it for Ajin.

Azin stands in front of the hut. He reaches out and pushes the door lightly. The door is not locked. Ajin was captivated. I walked as slowly as I could, but I haven't decided what to say yet.

Nevertheless

I opened the door.
