Level Up

< Return Once 1 >

“What are you going to do now? ”

Ryan raises his ears and waits for his reply.

To be honest, it was half.

What happened here was so horrible that I wanted to go on an adventure, level up, and get rid of it all.

I just wanted to go back and spend all the money I had so far.

But on the other hand, I wanted to see what was waiting for me in the world beyond this lake.

From the moment I saw those who were locked up together here, I became more and more passionate about it.

I can't believe there are non-Humans, even though they look like Humans.

And there were other humans out there.

“By the way... Will they keep their promises?" ”

Ryan suddenly remembers that and tilts his head. They literally let us go on our faith that we would keep our promises.

The only people who actually gave the object to the stone were the heat of the horror and Ryan. They handed over the bracelet they had prepared to bet against the jackals.

“Maybe non-humans will keep their promises. ”

“What about the humans? ”

“So I prepared a document. I took their seals. ”

Ryan was still skeptical.

“Will that be enough? ”

“Or not. Humans must be halfway there. There will be people to protect, and there will be people who won't. ”

The string was actually enough.

Honestly, none of the things in the safe were greedy.

It was literally their equipment, their family treasure, their family seal.

There was nothing practical and useful.

Only the third seal was the most coveted item in the vault.

And the third seal is now in the hand of the stone.

“What are you going to do? ”

Ryan asked me this time. Seeing the expectations in his eyes, Hyun-seok smiled deeply.

“Why do you ask? ”

“I'm going to follow you. ”

Ryan says with a cheeky face. Honestly, I was confident until I was caught by the Shadow Man.

In this dungeon, he believed there wouldn't be much that could harm them.

But the Shadow Man shattered their confidence.

They were too anxious to explore beyond the lake. That's why I wanted to be with Hyun-Seok.

“I'm not interested. You're on your own. ”

I was so determined to reject Hyun-seok. However, Ryan and his fever did not change.

“When we face the shame and suffering of being locked up in that cage, there's one thing I've decided. ”

Hyun-seok turns his head as if he doesn't care.

But Ryan spoke without hesitation.

“I've decided to follow the man who saved us from this hell. ”

Hyungseong walked aloud.

Ryan and the heat of the light rush behind him.

The two people looked quite complicated after checking the direction in which the stone was walking.

Hyun-seok was returning to the way he had come, as if he did not intend to cross the lake.

“Are we going back? ”

Ryan asks with a frowning face.

Hyun-seok just kept walking instead of answering.

Soon they reached the edge of the island. There was a boat there.

Hyun-seok snuck onto the boat. Then Ryan and the heat of the light caught up.

There were two oars on the boat.

Hyun-seok stared at the two of them alternately.

For a moment, Lyon and the heat of the light stare at him, grinning and grinning one by one.

The boat carrying three people quickly moved to the shore.

* * *

“Whoa! What the hell is this? ”

“What the hell is going on here? ”

“That wasteland has turned into a forest like this! ”

“Have we been held captive for so long? ”

Ryan and his enthusiasm for light spoke to each other in admiration.

I was surprised. The place that was originally a wasteland turned into a dense forest.

Moreover, the magnificence of the giant tree, seen from far away from the forest, was truly enormous.

The source tree seemed to be several times larger than the first time I saw it.

In fact, I was a little surprised that the tree of origin grew so big.

‘Obviously...... God's fragment is quite remarkable. ’

The aftermath of the power emanating from God's fragment must have raised the tree of origin like that.

And so is this forest.

The forest itself was larger than when the first starfish left. The trees of the forest grew larger, and the forest grew several times larger.

And I didn't even know that the forest was getting bigger at this point.

No, I'm sure you will.

The three of them quickly crossed the forest.

After walking for a while, the tribes of the forest appear.

As soon as they saw the marble, they bowed politely and showed an example. Bending at your waist was the highest sign of reverence that the forest tribes could see.

The sight of Ryan and the heat of the light froze for a moment.

The Forest Tribe helped them get through the forest quickly and comfortably.

There was a path only available to them in the forest. It was a shortcut to the forest.

Using the forest's shortcut, I was able to pass through the forest several times faster than just passing through it.

It was a place where the magic of the forest worked.

How long have you been walking like that? They reach a mountain in the forest.

The mountain was also covered with dense trees.

Ryan and the heat of the cold mutter, staring up at the mountain.

“It can't be...... this mountain isn't it? ”

“That's the mountain. ”

The gaze of the two people moved slowly and looked at the stone. I couldn't be more surprised.

How much work have you done in that short amount of time?

The three of them climbed up the mountain like that.

Whitehall is at the foot of the mountain, and as soon as they get there, they jump into it without hesitation.

* * *

Ryan and his heat flashed sharply as soon as he left Whitehall.

“Looks like there are intruders. ”

They hurriedly ran out the window.

“Nice timing. ”

Players were approaching the building as a threat. And the big men roaming around were growling ferociously against such players.

“Where did they come from? Is that Lexton?"

“I don't think so. ”

“Really?"

Ryan clenches his fist as he sees players slowly approaching the building.

“This is a great opportunity to unwind the stress you've been under. ”

A muttering voice leaps from the window.

A sudden appearance of Ryan stops the movement with a stiff expression.

“What business do you have in my house? ”

Ryan says so, and unravels his magic.

Not everyone can do the skill of unlocking and harvesting magic with this free material.

Of course, the players against Ryan were the least skilled.

All 30 players arrive, but they are instantly stunned by Ryan's magical power.

But not all players did. A player who was watching the situation at the rear moves forward through his allies.

“Ryan, it's been a long time. ”

“Cole?”

“Yes. It's been... two years? ”

Ryan stares at Cole with a firm look. Cole was a colleague and rival of Ryan's.

Then left after a big fight two years ago.

“I've heard that you only take what's good in your house. ”

“So?”

“Here's your check. There's a saying that it shouldn't be used alone. ”

Ryan's expression stiffens.

“Is that why you want to break into my house? ”

Cole grins.

“Why? Call the police? ”

“No way. I think you're mistaken. ”

“A misunderstanding? I don't think it's me, it's you. Don't you think?”

The magic flows from Cole's body. Just like Ryan, he began to take control of his surroundings with magical power.

The two magical forces collide. The sparks bounce off.

Pabababak!

The ice sheets are thin. Cole unleashes more magical power than I expected. Like Ryan.

“How do you feel? You feel that now? ”

Ryan nods loudly.

“I had a feeling. ”

At that moment, magical forces erupted from Ryan's body. It wiped out all of the players, including Cole.

“Whoa!”

“Kuweek!”

The coup d 'etang!

Ryan glances down indiscriminately at the players who have fallen out everywhere.

“I'm not done yet. You think that's it. ”

Cole grips his teeth and raises himself to his feet, ignorant of Ryan's words. You feel a heavy crushing sensation as your magic collides. You are no longer able to hold out here.

“Ugh. We'll see. It would be a mistake to think that we would retreat like this. You have no choice but to give up the treasure. ”

Cole leaves the message and quickly retreats with the rest of the players.

Ryan sighs as he watches it.

“You must be Lexton, right? ”

He stares back at Ryan and wonders, "Why are you talking so naturally?"

“What are you going to do? ”

Ryan's gaze darkens toward the window. I stood by the window and looked down, and I saw the stone that was looking down at me.

“We should ask our commander to solve it. ”

* * *

He looks at Ryan and the heat of the light with a blunt look on his face.

The fever of discomfort awaits an answer and the urgency in Ryan's face starts young.

“Why is there no answer? Is that impossible for you, too? ”

The heat of the taillight mixes the taunt slightly.

However, it took a long time for Hyun-seok to get over such provocation.

“Why would I do that? ”

At the words of Hyundai, the heat of the horror and Ryan panicked.

“Well, well……. ”

One of the two who had a moment to think about it, Ryan said, shining his eyes.

“This dungeon, didn't you need it? There are still a lot of uncharted areas in there that have not yet been visited. Did you see that? Those weird-looking guys. You, you promised them. Isn't that right?”

The stone shakes its head.

“There's no need to go this way. ”

“What?"

The eyes of both of them turned to flashlights. This was a completely unexpected answer.

“Well, is that true? ”

“No way! There's another entrance to the dungeon? ”

The mouth of the stone slid up.

Of course, I haven't checked yet. So I can't be sure, but I don't have to tell you a detailed story like that.

“Phew.”

The heat of the cold sighed deeply. And I looked at the stone. The eagerness in his eyes was young.

“This Whitehall is like all of us. So can you help me out? We were supposed to leave everything to you anyway. ”

“That's right. So saving the lives of two of my servants.... ”

Hyun-seok glanced at the two of them and asked. Of course, there was no expression or tone. As if he doesn't care.

“What you just said, can you keep it up? ”

“Protect what? ”

The two of them were puzzled about what this sounded like, then realized what it meant and stared at the stone with a dazed eye.

“You mean your men? I told you from the beginning! Help me!”

“It won't be easy to save someone who won't betray like us. ”

Hyungseok shined his eyes listening to the two people. Their words contain magic.

‘The way magic is... a bit unusual.' ’

I couldn't figure out exactly what it was. But it felt like an oath.

Hyun-seok nods.

“Fine. I'll help you. ”

I had a bright smile on their faces.
