Hmm.

JooJoon recalls the sights that had just happened.

"I never thought there would be a White Tower in that world."

Princess Ellis and the Empire, followed by the White Tower in which Deadon operates.

In the exploration world, there were things that could only be seen through the past, through Juma, etc.

Is the real expedition journal a world based on my memories? Or is it a space where the experience of the warriors and my memories are intertwined? ’

Thoughtful for a moment.

He shrugs.

‘Once this expedition is over, we'll know something. More importantly, what did the old man just...

The old man who looked at chocolate so lovingly.

Could he be the old owner of chocolate?

‘Chocolate's desperate reaction makes it more likely. No, maybe that old man really was a fool for cocoa. ’

Then maybe we should let the old man take back the memories of his past and chocolate.

‘It's just... it's not the same as Princess Ellis. ’

At that time, the princess regained her memories by confronting Dutta.

The old man didn't show that color.

"I wish I could find a way to get my memory back."

When Joon pondered the relationship between the old man and chocolate.

Clears the Warrior's Expedition Journal.

A group of warriors successfully completed the Princess' Troubles in the Royal Road ’quest.

The Warrior Dutta provides information related to the Thief Guild.

The warrior Deadon has subdued a large number of land mines.

Warrior Choco has defeated the Thief Guild Master, Agov.

The Warrior Deeks destroyed the thieves' Guild House.

A group of warriors earn a bounty from Princess Ellis.

3,000 Reputation Points will be awarded as a reward.

A series of messages appeared before him.

He looks at the message and opens his eyes wide with a smile.

"Chocolate defeated the guild leader? ’

JooJoon was briefly drawing the action statue of chocolate in his head.

The Warrior Chocolate begins the quest 'My Old Master’.

Special rewards will be given when the Warrior Chocolate completes the quest.

Just like in Dutta.

An unfamiliar message appears before him.

"My old master."

I'll postpone it with the title of the quest.

As expected, the old man appeared to be the old owner of chocolate.

JooJoon feels anxious.

‘An old man looks pretty tough... if he remembers abusing chocolate in the past...’

If you get that memory back, it could be bothering you, right?

‘No, no, no. You don't have to be so negative. You can't judge everything by appearances. We'll have to wait until Chocolate breaks the quest. "

Chocolate alone knew the truth about the old man.

Judgment about the old man was not too late after the quest was over.

‘With Deadon and Deeks by your side, it shouldn't be a big deal. ’

He smiles at his warriors.

Look at Doren's message with a clear look.

Doreen...

Gaze at the message with an awkward look.

"My son... will surely return to your side. I'm sure it will. ’

As Doran, his son, was abducted by an unknown force.

Doreen's insides would have been incinerated and turned to ash.

‘But in the meantime, with Haina's help, I think I've grown a merchant guild...’

The inside is boiling like lava.

Doreen is doing what she can, calmly.

Doreen...

He remembers Doreen's face like that.

I put my finger on the message.

Zec

A large field of smoke catches his eye.

Chang

There was a man in there with a bent body and a Demibeast man mixing swords.

“Khhh!”

At the same time as the rumbling sound.

“Oops!”

The Demibeast Man's body rolls the floor.

“Even a few Mages can't be defeated with a sword like that! Be more serious!”

The Demibeast Warrior drops his shoulders and walks out of the training ground in a stiff man's voice.

“After a 10-minute break, we will continue to schedule! ”

Let the man finish.

A small rumble flows through the crowd that was waiting to meet him.

“Hey... I thought Cade would be okay with it... Who is this old man? ”

“I heard you paid a lot of money at the Doren Merchant Guild this time and recruited the Kingdom's Swordmaster. You can't be that old man, can you? ”

“... the sorcerer? ”

The pinnacle of the sword.

An honorable title given only to those who have seen the end of swordsmanship among Humans.

Why would someone with that title be at the top of this room?

“You're not here for the money, are you? ”

“No way? Even if the Doren Merchant Guild has grown rapidly, do you think you can afford to hire a sorcerer?" ”

“Well...”

while the crowds hum and share information with each other.

Doren walks in front of the man while watching the battle from a distance.

“Cayron, it looks like there were a few mercenaries out there who looked pretty good. Is that not enough? ”

At Doren's question, Cayron smiles gladly.

“If I needed an arrow holder from the battlefield, I would have drawn it without hesitation. But what your employer needs right now is more than numbers, right? ”

“Haha, I know, but I wonder if Cayron's standards are too high. ”

“Shouldn't you at least be good at exploring the ruins of the Emperor?" ”

Since Doran was abducted by unknown forces.

Around the desert came the unknown architecture.

Doren was convinced they had something to do with Doran's abduction.

‘Those who were seen around the ruins... They were dressed exactly like the ones who kidnapped Doran. ’

So he used the money he collected to run the merchant guild to recruit mercenaries.

‘Doran... just wait a little longer. I'm sure this father will come looking for me... "

Doren recalls Doran for a moment and blushes her eyes.

Soon he smiles and looks at Cayron.

“The Master is right. But how many mercenaries will meet the standard of the Sword Master?”

Hundreds of mercenaries have already turned their heads.

Now I've given up even counting them.

“The employer thinks it is the role of this old man to prevent the loss of money and the lives of mercenaries. ”

Cayron smiling politely.

He keeps looking at Doren and saying,

“I need you to trust me as much as you made me head of the Doren Mercenaries. ”

“It's not that I don't trust your skills and ideology. But... My heart seems to be rushing every day. ”

“ · · · ”

When Cayron sees Doren's bitter smile, he can't answer anything.

No matter how long you've been eating rice on the battlefield.

I couldn't understand the feelings of a father who lost his son.

“I will reflect on the intentions of my employer as much as possible. ”

“No. You're still doing well enough, but I don't think I pushed you. ”

“Haha, no. Because if I had been in the position of an employer, I would have made the same choice. ”

At the end of the sentence, Cayron gets up on his feet, grabbing his ass.

“The break is over! Next!”

When Cayron's finished,

A man at the forefront of the queue walks in front of them.

“This is Seizan. I'm from Tangkhanheim. ”

“That's unusual. It seems a little small to be a Giant, and big to be a person. Is it a harp?”

Sometimes there were harps born between Humans and Giants.

Doren was curious.

A low, thick voice flows out between relatively thick lips.

“Half my body is an elf. ”

“Elves? ”

That means the Half born between Elves and Giants.

“The Half of Elves and Giants...”

Why his appearance was smaller and prettier than other Giants.

Now I'm convinced.

"That's odd.There are times when Giants and Elves get together. ’

They didn't get along very well in the first place.

The monarch who united the Giants, the war caused by Baikal.

Didn't things get worse between them?

‘Even if we had a truce, things wouldn't have worked out so well in the short term...’

When Doren tilted her head.

Seizan raises his sword.

“I came here because I'm only good at hiring mercenaries. Am I mistaken? ”

“No, you're right. I asked you an unfortunate question. I apologize.”

Doren looks back at Cayron.

“The test is simple. Do your best to attack me! ”

Cayron shouted with his sword in his hand.

He glances down at him and says,

“I could die, would you be okay with that? ”

“... could die? Puhahahahahahaha!”

Even if time doesn't win.

He survived all sorts of battlefields and even earned the title of the Sword Master.

“I like being confident, but I hope you're as good as that mouth. ”

“I see.”

To the end.

Suddenly, Seizan disappears.

“What the...”

Sazanne reappeared in front of Cayron.

When Cayron realized that. Seizan's Great Sword is already raised high.

“Oh, my...”

Cayron swiftly swung his sword and became defensive.

The Great Sword slams his sword at a fierce speed.

Boom.

“Khh...”

Cayron took a thunderstorm.

He gazes at Seyzan, forcefully swallowing blood that seems to be coming out of his throat right away.

"What kind of power..."

I knew Giants were naturally powerful.

Seizan's power was to run from the ark.

‘It's not just strength. The elasticity and agility that sustains power... Is this what the harp has...?’

Even though his body was decayed by time.

The inexhaustible force gap revealed one obvious fact to him.

‘This guy... is a thing. ’

At that moment, Cayron's strong ambition rose.

‘If you are sincere, one of you must die. I can't be too old to be dodgy. ’

He quickly clears his mind.

“Are you going to do more? ”

Cayron shakes his head at Seizan's question.

I've already seen enough of his skills with one sword.

‘We need to test dozens more in the future, but we can't lose all our strength here. ’

“No, I passed! ”

When Cayron's finished,

Sazanne slowly picked up the Great Sword.

‘No mercenary has ever pushed Cayron before, but there was a reason to be confident. ’

Watching him, Doren couldn't help but wonder.

"A mercenary like that came to my Merchant Guild... The Tang Khan is watching over me..."

Maybe God sent a great warrior to help us find our lost son.

Tang Khan!! ’

Doreen looked up at the sky and looked up at her arms.

[Hmm... unusual.]

Haina, who was suddenly floating next to him, tilts her head.

“Yes? What do you mean? ”

[It's like you know someone I know.]]

“An acquaintance?" ”

Haina nods at Doren's question.

[It's said to be quite extraordinary, but that arrogance...]

He asked his mentors for a battle and reminded him of Baikal who had been beaten.

You don't think it's Baikal's blood? I thought you said you had two sons... "

She ponders for a moment and then encourages Doren to slip away.

[Try asking me this. I mean, what's your relationship with Baikal?]

< Is that friend's son? > End
