Level Up

< Beginning of Change 3 >

The stone was floating on top of the sky while riding the dragon. The blue sea was endlessly spread out below, and a rather large island floated on top of it.

“At this rate, the population will be over 100,000. ”

There were many buildings on the island, and many people were busy moving. And there were several boats floating around the island.

Even in a small island country, it was not too big.

Ryan looks up and says to Hyun-seok,

“I think they found us, too, by the way. Wouldn't you rather just go down? ”

Like Ryan said, I could feel some of the people on the island's gaze.

In fact, the people standing on the top of the seven towers, located on the edge of the island, were looking up at the dragon soaring high in the sky.

At the top of the tower is a metal rod embedded in the floor, and a crystal ball hangs from the end of it.

Everyone looking up at the sky from the tower was holding their palms on the crystal ball.

The use of crystal beads could be guessed even from the look, but the string could read the magic patterns and flows contained in the crystal beads more clearly.

Now, the dominance over the magical power of Hyundai has surpassed what I would call the Master of Magical Power.

I felt like I could break another wall.

But I had no idea when it was going to happen.

Maybe it can be very easy. But it could have been impossible forever.

It was an impossible realm without any special trigger or enlightenment.

After all, it means that your sense of magic or dominance has reached its limit.

So we can analyze artifacts that have not yet been triggered from this far away.

That crystal ball is an artifact that draws magical power into the tower and radiates enormous power in an instant.

Apparently, the direction of the eruption of the force could be changed to either sky or sea or free materials.

Powers were considerably different from the beams that were fired from the sailboat earlier.

Of course, the precise power can only be ascertained by actual use, but the approximate power level could be predicted by analyzing the magical power pattern.

Hyun-seok wasn't just checking out the island on a rough surface. In order to consider more things and make a analogy, they flew away separately without coming with Martius.

Hyun-Seok turned a few times around the island, then turned around and flew to another place.

Then Ryan was embarrassed.

“Huh? Aren't you going there? Where are you going?”

There was no answer. But everyone could roughly predict why.

We still have a long time before Martius arrives. It was a waste of time to stay in the air.

So for the remaining time, we are going around the entire ocean to understand the structure and situation here.

The stone soared higher. Vision was far beyond the limits of man, and even with the help of magical power, it was not hard to check carefully below.

It was the widest Whitehall I'd ever seen. Do we have to put all of Whitehall together to make it this wide?

And there was something else that was curious. Unlike the rest of Whitehall, this place was not a bottle structure.

To be honest, the other Whitehall was like a bottle of white-hole made forcibly.

I felt strongly that I had taken the land of the dead and attached it to my original land. Of course, there was a lot of artificial and unnatural feeling.

But this was not the place.

It was a structure close to a rectangle. No, in fact, it would be better to call it a strap-like structure than a rectangle.

It was a structure like a river flowing with enormous breadth. What was even more surprising was that the ends were connected to the ends.

If you go up to a higher level and look at this space objectively, it's going to look like a giant oval.

The string reconstructed the shape of the space and identified floating islands in the sea.

He also checked where he had first come from.

Surprisingly, there were many places that looked just like the one that first came here.

“I don't know if I'm looking right...... But aren't they the Horsemen? ”

The dragon descends horribly at the end of Ryan's words.

“Aah!”

Ryan squeals and claps his mouth shut and sticks to the ground.

I was talking, but I was surprised when I went down.

“Oh... really, just say something and let's go down. ”

My face was red with nagging shyness, but my eyes were sharp.

Those horses over there were a little different from those 18 horses back there. It seemed weaker somehow.

And there were sailboats approaching.

“Let's go get him first! ”

Ryan says that because he's excited, and then he puts his magic all over himself.

Soon, at a reasonable height, Ryan jumps straight down.

Shhhhh!

You land on the ground and release your magic to sweep the area. A tremendous force struck the demons.

The rest of the party leaps forward. And he began to fight fiercely with the Horsemen.

It was really just right. It was good enough to fight fiercely, neither weak nor strong.

They're like a foster system for the good of the group.

Soon after the fight, the dragon soared high in the sky again.

A group of stones sweeps through the sea, sweeping away all the horses, and heads back to Martius Island.

It was almost time for Martius to arrive on the island.

The streetscape lands on Martius' sailboat, not on the island.

Martius looks at the stone with a curious look on his face.

Flying straight to the island and back to the ship. But I quickly found out why.

‘Course, flying away separately can be problematic. ’

After straightening things up in his head, Martius looks up at the island that he began to see from afar.

The sailboat was heading for the island at a rapid rate.

* * *

In the center of the island was a huge mansion. It was the home of the chief, where all the administration and politics of the island were held.

Martius frowns as he enters the Chief's mansion. It was because I could feel the corners of my eyes everywhere.

“What about the chief?”

“He's in the middle of a competition. ”

“Competition?”

A conference is a meeting of the entire ocean that can only be attended by a chief.

The meeting was held regularly once every two months, but Martius knew that today was not the day.

In other words, something important that could threaten the entire ocean happened and entered the emergency meeting.

Martius looks embarrassed. It was an emergency meeting, so no one knew when this was going to end.

“Who's behind you? ”

Martius simply replied to the question of the warrior guarding the mansion.

“I'm a guest.”

The warriors say yes and step back. But no one cleared the lines of sight.

Everyone looks at the group and is fully prepared to respond whenever something happens.

Martius shakes his head as he looks at it and tells the warriors.

“You don't have to be so nervous. ”

Literally. It's useless to be nervous.

Martius watched from afar as Hyundai wiped out the horses.

The horsemen were undisturbed by the attacks prepared by dozens of sailors.

But I destroyed them alone.

Do you think it's possible that such a stroke of wishfulness would leave us here? No, can I really run away?

Absolutely impossible. And they have dragons. You don't have to be nervous.

But that's Martius' idea, and the other warriors still can't relax.

That was a brief standoff.

After a long time, the inside becomes fragile. Looks like the meeting was over.

After the meeting ended earlier than I expected, Martius' face brightened. He looks at the warriors and says,

“Looks like the meeting's over. Tell the chief.I 've brought a very important guest. ”

One of the warriors hurriedly jumps inside.

The rest of the warriors remain vigilant with their nervous eyes.

A few moments later, Martius and his group are escorted to the Chief's chambers.

The chief was surprisingly quite young. He glances around the group with a bold look. But in the depths of his eyes, sharpness flourished.

I felt like everyone was a chieftain.

“Are these the people?”

The chieftain looks at Martius and asks. I needed an explanation, where they're from, and why they're important guests.

“You came on a dragon. ”

I didn't need any further explanation. In one word, the chief's eyes turned into a flashlight.

The chief's attitude changed dramatically. Your party has been upgraded from a guest to a noble guest.

When Martius created the atmosphere he wanted, he began to report on his experiences in detail.

As Martius' story progressed, the chief's expression became more and more serious.

After all the explanations, the chieftain looked at the stone and asked carefully.

“Are you really here because you want to know what's going on in our world? ”

He didn't answer. However, the answer was just a glance.

In fact, I wasn't really interested in how the world worked. I've already figured out what I want to know.

Just looking around the sea was enough.

Before experiencing another Whitehall, it would have taken some time to figure it out, but it didn't.

Instead of forests or deserts, this place was made up of the sea. And this was a place where, unlike any other, there was no God's fragment.

It was also a place where people were constantly at war with magic systems. And maybe it wasn't a real one, but just a place where the Horsemen live.

A place ruled by the Demon King.

There were four Demon Kings that invaded the Magic System. One of them is already dead, and the other three are left.

And two of the other three were taken care of by Hyundai. Now there is only one left, and the other Demon King must be the master of the magic world.

And Hyun-Seok was going to take care of the Demon Lord as well. I don't know what kind of Demon King he is, but it's clear he has a key.

Perhaps if we defeat the Demon King, a great wave of change will emerge.

No, I'm sure you will.

This was one of the most powerful sensations that Hyun-seok felt constantly recently.

Hyun-Seok suddenly thought of the chieftain and asked.

“Is there some kind of legend about the dragon rider? ”

“Yes, I do. ”

The chief nods, answering quickly, as if he was waiting for the question.

“There is a legend that the king of the sea flew on a dragon to kill the Demon King and save us. ”

This legend was so famous that no one in the sea actually knew about it.

The chieftain resolutely said with a resolute expression.

“Our warriors of the sea are always ready to serve the king. ”

They were very different from the rest of Whitehall's people.

I always faced death threats because I had to fight the Horses.

It was also strong, and the belief in legends was strong.

For them, the king of the sea was closer to faith. Without that belief, life would have been too difficult.

But there really appeared a stone riding the dragon. Perhaps it's only natural that the chieftain should look at the aspiration there.

The chieftain said so, then carefully asked me what came to mind.

“By any chance...... have you fought against the Horsemen other than what Martius saw? ”

I nodded my head so that it wouldn't be a big deal. And the ancillary explained it to Ryan standing behind.

“Apparently, there are many places along the sea where the Horses appear. I wiped them out because the Horsemen showed up. ”

The chief's eyes widen with Ryan's words.

That's why this emergency meeting was held. But that party is right in front of you.

The chief's chest suddenly starts to pound.

“Yi, don't you think you should clear your stomach first? I will do my best to assist you. ”

The chief bowed his head and asked for it. Hyun-seok nods because he knows why he's doing this.

The rest of the party needs to rest, although they may not know it themselves.

After dozens of vicious battles in a row, not to mention physical fatigue and tremendous mental fatigue.

Martius, commanded by the chieftain, personally escorts the group to their resting places.

The chieftain hurriedly leaps inside. It was to restart the emergency meeting that had just ended.

“Finally... is the world of our families of the sea finally coming back!" ”

And the war against the Long and Long Horses will be over.

If the true legendary king of the sea had appeared.

The chief's eyes were filled with confidence. He believed it was the king of the sea.

The chieftain enters the room deep inside, and breathes his magic into the crystal beads prepared.

Suddenly, a meeting chairman appeared, and other chiefs appeared out of thin air.

It was the first time in thousands of years that an emergency meeting was held twice in a row.

It was really fun to see the faces of the other chieftains mixed with curiosity and embarrassment.

A second emergency meeting was held.
