King of Shadows

00156 Outcasts to Protect

Sihyun reached out his hand. The spear, which realized what it meant, reached out its hand - the blade - as well. As they shook hands, the great spear that gave and received each other's suggestions vomited a sighing noise.

"Is this the second deal? I don't remember the first one, but the second deal. Weird would be weird, but it's also fate."

After completing the second transaction, the great spear turned into a small particle and was swept away by the wind.

"I will start my training tomorrow. I have something to prepare for today."

Sihyun nodded at the voice of the great spear that sounded like a hallucination.

Xihyun, who was separated from Chang Oh, reminded me of the bracelet that the swimmer was wearing. A questionable bracelet my friend handed me. As soon as he was curious about the fate of the bracelet, presumed to have been created by something involving a great race, he immediately focused his mind on where the Ring of Shadow was held by the swimmer.

Soon after confirming the location of the swimming, Shi Hyun ran through the streets and buildings and approached the cafe where she was. It was right in his eyes that the swimmer received the bracelet from another male student.

'You're just in time.'

She tried to go into the cafe, but as soon as she saw the girl sitting next to the pool, she changed her mind. It was because I thought things would get complicated for no reason. Luckily, the boy who handed the bracelet to the swimmer came out of the cafe by himself.

It's good for her to want a close conversation with a male student. I called him up after I realized that there was no one around who followed him to the alleyway, leaving him behind to swim.

[Stop.]

"Huh?"

What's your name?]

"I'm Kim Karam. Your mouth is moving by itself."

Garam couldn't hide his surprise when an indescribable energy spread from his little boy. However, it was rather chilly for him to have such an aura in front of his eyes.

[Where did you get the bracelet you gave Swimmer?]

"I didn't save her. I made it myself."

Sihyun felt a little anxiety rushing towards him with confidence. It was also the first conjecture I made by looking at the language-primal engraved on the bracelet.

[Are you Yin?]

"Yes, it's Yisar. No, wait. How do you know the name of our kind?"

As expected, Shi Hyun, who narrows it down, gives a nod to the fact that he was right on Garram's suspicions. The answer was limited in the beginning. They are the only ones who can use Primel to make a bracelet that can stop the great race's spirit.

A lot of questions came to mind in the mind of the surprise and encounter.

[Why did you target the humans? With your skills, you'd have a lot of other options.]

"because the possibility was found in an entity named Eclipse."

What are you talking about?]

"The possibility to kill the Great Old One. We've come to the final conclusion that he was created that way. Great Old One and something else equally powerful. They all want to enter the human body and artificially become the Eclipse."

[Why are you trying to kill the Great Old One?]

"That's the kind of accomplishment everyone wants. Our kind is walking the path of decline by a curse from a great old being. It'll be easy to understand if you say it's the end of the world."

You want to wipe out humanity for that?]

"I'm not trying to kill you. The curse of the nameless Great Old One has made our kind weaker by generations. We've only got a few hundred years at most. If we don't do something about it, we'll be extinct. And then our library will collapse for hundreds of millions of years. We're just struggling for the next generation."

[I think you're saying different, aren't you?]

"I don't know what kind of power you're using to force me to answer, but I think it's better to find another creature than humans. You can ask me with unknown strength. My answer won't change."

Sihyun looked down at the cold-sweating eggplant. Whether he was surprised by the unknown power, Garram sat down and breathed a short breath.

You can tell that you are not selfish enough to harm others for your own comfort without using anything.

I could tell by the gift of such bracelet to the swimmer in the first place that I didn't reveal myself in the disaster that would happen after five days.

Until then, he tilted his head. Even as he pretended, he could not figure out why Aram, a pacifist, had come down to Earth.

[What do you do? Are you studying and learning about human habits?]

"No, it's a disguise. My true duty is to write a book that fits the role of" the buyer. "I'm in charge of preaching the truth, which you can't contain with your narrow head. There are very few people among us who can do this."

After a while, Garram pulled out a notebook from his bag. The cover was yellow and bleached, just as it had been used for a long time. But strangely enough, the paper inside was as white as new.

As soon as she saw Aram's notebook, she opened her eyes wide. It was the same size and shape as the notebook that Malone used to call Dagon. I thought there couldn't be two of these notebooks, and he opened his mouth while calming his throbbing chest.

[What's with the notebook?]

"Phenacotic handwriting. It's a book of information and knowledge that our kind boasts, plus the power of language. Essence. I wrote it carefully for 18 years. Now, wait a minute, this is something I'm not supposed to say..."

As if there were no more harsh noises, Jihyun saw an eggplant holding his mouth and burst into elasticity. It was unexpected that the Panacotic manuscript written by pacifist Garam would be in Marlon or Aram's hands.

After five days, I was able to guess why Ram was not there.

'... to die.'

With a bitter imagination, he turned his back and threw a word into Garam's ear, rolling his feet.

[Forget the fact that you met with me today.]

Soon after, Garam regained his senses and went on his way with a fine look. He smiled brightly, looking at the back of such a razor wheel on a nearby telescope table.

"I should thank the swimmer."

He unwittingly noticed the whereabouts of the notebook. No matter how many times I came back, I had nothing to worry about. He had the lead.

The next day, Xihyun followed behind the great spear, as long as it was tied with a green belt. He went into a place with a long stretch of wire and put his tongue out to unfamiliar sights.

It's been 30 minutes since I heard the great window about changing venues for training. Sihyun could not bear the curiosity, and looked behind Chang Oh's great head. Whether he noticed Sihyun's gaze or not, Chang Awesome opened his mouth with a deep sigh.

"Where we go now is the home of the Eclipses who strive to protect humanity. It's my home, too. I would never let them come under normal circumstances, but I chose to go as a place for training because I had to come once to carry out the transaction anyway. It's comfortable in many ways."

As the rock moved, the great spear tapped the rock as it approached the rock hidden between the full-grown weeds, revealing a huge passageway.

"Are you a guest? You're a child, just like Master said."

"We have a lot to talk about. Don't mind my guests. Just do your job."

A light greeting with the lion-like Iklips-Hanbaemin from within, Shi Hyun walked deeper behind Chang Awesome. It was surprising that there was such a huge space underneath the mountains, but even more astonishing was the attitude of the Eclipses within.

They followed the great spear like a god. Whenever the Great Spear passed by, he bowed his head.

"You have a thick net."

"I didn't just ask you to express your feelings, so shut up."

Despite the great words of Chang, he did not stop.

"But I also knew there was a joint like this in the wilderness."

"There can't be this big a joint. This is a place I made myself."

"Huh?"

Sihyun couldn't keep his mouth shut about the shocking facts, but Chang Awesome was just walking gravely towards his destination, not willing to tell me anymore. Even in the basement, Sihyun saw a vision unfolding before his eyes.

Inside a cave the size of a playground was a circle of figurative characters that could not be understood. Even letters of the same shape were subtly different from the depth engraved or the way forward, even to the place where the writing was finished.

"I'm running out of time, so I'm going straight to my training. The name of Gin engraved here is' The Branch Administrator 'which will help you train. It has the effect of increasing time through the vitality of the subject. In other words, if you are in here, you can achieve your ship faster than anyone else."

"... it's ridiculous magic. With this, anyone can be strong, right?"

"Ha, silly. I'm just cutting you as close as you can get. Of course, you can't go where you can't. That's the kind of gin you need if you want to evolve your talents a little faster."

"If you don't have that kind of talent, you're just going to spend time? But you can keep sending them. I think training at a slower pace than anyone else would be a big merit."

At his words, Chang Awesome sighed.

"As time divides, the vitality demands also increases exponentially. Like you said, when used for high level of enlightenment or training, it consumes that vitality. You are trained on a different time axis than others, but you can't use it often. A creature of nourishment. It's an energy in a realm even humans can't control. When it's not enough, you have to fill it with rest. It's not like internal medicine. It's like physical strength or vitality."

"Eclipse is an overwhelmingly good sport."

Eclipse doesn't get tired easily and doesn't need to eat food. Since it was a lump of mucus with three strands of tentacles, one was an immutable truth.

"My recommended flow is one-on-one 1.8. That's enough for Eclipse to last a day."

"It's lower than I thought...?"

"Do you think I'm a wizard? This can make them twice as strong as others."

He shakes his head, smiling bitterly. As soon as he knew that there was something like this, he didn't want to stop. A limp that can run as fast as anyone, but imposes excessive penalties. And the past regression of nullifying such penalties. Sihyun was best aware that the two of them combined to become a high return at no risk. instinct was shouting.

"Now that I've explained it, I think I can increase the proportion. Is that wrong?"

"That's not wrong."

"Then raise it. One-one to 5000."

Chang Oh, who heard what he said, was ridiculous, so I had to snort. It was not that he could not set such a time gap. If he increased the time gap, it was a definite matter of death.

"You want to die? No, you'll die the moment you get in there."

"Yes, you're going to die. You haven't forgotten what I'm capable of, have you?"

Recommendation for National Power

Commendo National Power

1. Experiencing and moving on from the past, which is always said, but is not a special statement.

2. And the point of the past regression is why it's an underground parking lot, because the past regression is because the winner-take-all is stored at a time when the other person's abilities are dominant.

3. If your brain isn't getting smarter, you have to say your mindset is rigid. The wider the brain can do, the more habits it has at the time of the unsub.

4. It's less accessible to catch heteros than when you were in Grandeliol that you don't get to win every day. And I spent five days training, so I didn't have time to do that. I couldn't put it in the middle, so I postponed it.

And I didn't really have a lot of explaining to do. I'm sorry for the confusion. And when you activate the winner-take-all, it doesn't mean you think.

5. I changed the cover.
