Lord of the Skill

Legendary Beast Hunt (1)

“Yes…? ”

“What's that supposed to mean? ”

“Yes. It's an army that's made it difficult to hunt the Demibeast. But you won't take the troops. ”

The barracks are filled with chaotic voices.

However, the fever that only brought out the words seemed to have already made up my mind.

“I'm not trying to do anything dangerous. I just need to check in a little bit. ”

“Are... are you doing this because of the two people who entered the mountains? ”

A woman's intuition.

Yoon Sun-mi carefully asked Heatless.

“Yes, it is. ”

“Any guesses? ”

“Mmm-hmm. No, it's not like that. ”

Nothing has been confirmed.

Besides, I don't want to go into the mountains by myself because of them.

Legendary people called the Three Great Phases.

Shinrok, Alcar.

Roarbrok, the whitening one.

Ear, Calduran.

Alcar, who looks like a giant deer and rules the Canatra Mountains.

A pure white wolf roarbroke, the owner of the Frostplateau in the northeast.

And an island at the far end of Phosphine.

Rumor has it that the island was the shell of a green turtle, Kalduan, but no one saw it until the Racial War.

‘So we have to assume that there are actually two phases that exist on the continent. ’

It was the first time the word "three" was said, but even if they all existed in the first place, it was just a field name that rewarded humanity.

‘If there's anything we missed..... ’

Alcar's running rampant.

The reason for the sudden descent of the mountain range and the attack on the village and the killing of countless people.

Heatless is here to hunt Al-Qar to prevent it from happening in the future, but maybe it's because there is a reason for the insurgency…….

I definitely needed to look a little more.

“It won't take long. This isn't a hunt, it's an investigation. Bringing the whole army of shamans around the mountains is less efficient. If you want to get out of this mess, you're on your own. ”

“Mmmm... ”

“So what should we do? ”

“Hyuk-soo Choi, can you make the superheat treasure available to anyone but you, the illusionist? ”

“Yes, it won't be half as powerful... but it can also be crafted as a common item. ”

Heatless nods at his answer.

“Very well, then. I don't care if you reduce the power of the pyrotechnics, but make the size of the fire as big as possible." ”

“You're going to use it instead of a flare? ”

“Yes, it is. ”

Choi Hyuk-soo frowned and said as if he was thinking for a moment.

“Yes, I think I can do it if it has nothing to do with the damage. Can I have three? ”

“One is enough. I wish I could do it differently. ”

“Ah... I think I can do that. ”

In their conversation, Yoon Sun-mi took out several ampoules containing unknown powder from her inventory and said.

“Among the ingredients for the elixir are some colorful dyes. I think it would be nice if you put this in when you make the treasure. ”

“Oh... I like it. ”

“If you don't take it, the ingredients for the elixir won't work separately, so the effects of the prison won't be affected. ”

The fever looked at them and said,

“Okay, then I'll ask you as soon as I can. In the meantime, the rest of you prepare to camp around the ridge. When I signal, Kang Chan-Seok will lead the infantry and prepare them to move quickly. ”

“I understand.”

“We never forget our purpose. There's still no argument about hunting Alcar. But before that, it's just a confirmation necessary to kill a creature called a Demibeast. ”

At his words, everyone in the barracks leaned back and replied.

“Yes, I understand. ”

* * *

It's overwhelming.

The dark forest path looks very complex.

Especially if it was a novice, I didn't even know where to go or where to go.

“Hmm.”

Nevertheless, there seemed to be no hesitation in walking in the dark.

‘It's been a long time.’

The owner of the footsteps is nothing but fever.

He glances back up at the light of the barracks looking down the hill.

Regrets were new.

The fever was not here that year when Alcar went berserk. At that time, when we were fighting the dominance of the North, the dominance of Lake Lee was further east with Reynolds.

‘Just a little further from here, I came out of there. ’

The infantryman who couldn't get away from the trainees didn't get into proper combat.

But since then.

In the past decade or so, since the beginning of the Racial War, he has participated in many wars and conquered the continent.

There.

Right, Hazar Canyon.

The fever bites her lip without even knowing it.

The last place he died in the last 15 years of his incarceration at Seven Thorns.

‘It will never happen again. ’

Once again, I took a breathtaking step forward.

[Hmm, it's been a long time since I've had this much energy.]

As he stepped into the mountain range, Kungen said as if he was wandering around the forest.

“Huh? What? ”

[Spirit. Is it because of the Legendary Beast, the Third Generation? I've never seen a forest so spiritual.]

“Really?"

Heatless nods at Kungen's words.

It's possible enough.

‘If you think about it now, the remaining ingredients among the best materials for obtaining animosity are also related to the three major phases. ’

Treasure, pure gold, zinc, coral chips, fangs, horns.

The six ingredients obtained by spirituality are, in fact, easy to obtain.

Half of the six were for sale at the Node Shop. Unsold horns, fangs, and pieces of coral were easily obtained by catching monsters in the field.

However, the better the grade of the material, the more pure and high aesthetic it has been known to get, and it has become a bloodline to get better materials.

‘Already it was after Alcar died. Maybe……. ’

Hearing the chief's words, I was sure that I was feverish.

Horns, fangs, pieces of coral.

These three materials, which are not sold in the store, are the best materials you can get from the top three phases.

‘Rather, I didn't have to worry about where to get the materials. ’

You can get fangs from the wolf, Lorbrook, and coral fragments from Calduan.

‘That means that the island at the end of the phosphine is really the back of the blue turtle, one of the top three phases. ’

A living island.

Maybe it's not just a legend that flows from mouth to mouth.

[Funny. Even non-spirits possess this kind of spiritual energy. I wonder if it's one of the top three.]

“Don't you think there are animals like Demibeast in the Spirit Realm? ”

[Animals look like animals, but in the end, it's just a kind of spirit. There is no such thing as the flesh and spirit.]

“Hmm...... Should I think of it as a feeling that spans between the spirit system and the human world? ”

[Something like that.]

The fever was engulfed by Kungen's words.

He recalls the first time he met Kungen in the Fallen Rock.

‘At that time, Kungen clearly said: ’

The only king to face the throne and the gods.

I thought all spirits belonged to God, but they did not. That means that a spirit might find the power to resist the power of God.

If the existence of a Spirit exists in a different realm than the power of God...

“Maybe the Legendary Beast is a byproduct of God's design to show it to the spirits. ”

[Hmmm...]

Kungen snorts as if in a bad mood.

[Uuuuggghhh...]

It was then.

The distant rumbling of the bellows is getting closer and closer.

[Looks like we're almost there.]

Kungen's words make him nod and fix his sword.

Then he carefully looked at the way he had come.

I am not checking because I am approaching my destination

One question I heard as I walked in.

‘It's strange. No matter how hard I try to find it, there's no sign of anyone passing by...' Hmm. '

Some of the combat skills I learned in the training camp while in the army were not perfect, but there were also chasing skills.

Ordinary people could find traces of heatless pursuit alone.

However, there was no trace of heat on the way up the mountain range.

‘Maybe they went the other way.... Is there a reason for that? As far as I'm concerned, the road to the mountains is too rough. ’

A feeble eyebrow twitched.

I came up to the mountains alone to find Alcar, but also to find traces of two people who went with him first.

‘If I didn't go the other way and went this way and I couldn't find it...' ’

Says the two of them left a perfect trail.

"On purpose?"

Heatless thought, touching the scattered leaves.

‘No, it's a little different. ’

It's like natural behavior in your body.

If you turned around the direction you were going to cover your tracks, you wouldn't have missed the heat either.

“You won't be able to find it, Ganggang-ryeol. Leaving no trace. It's a unique skill in the job of Hidden Eater. ”

“ ……!!! ”

At that moment, the feverish voice coming from the darkness suddenly turns around.

The sharp strokes and swords of the concussion flashed from the night sky. However, I did not see the protagonist of the voice in front of me.

“You don't have to stand up like that. ”

“ ……. ”

‘I didn't notice anything at all. ’

The fever draws its sword forward and does not slow it down.

“It's not that unusual. Even the Assassins can't keep up with their own eyes. You've crossed the boundaries of your body. ”

You hear voices again from behind.

Chaang!!!

Heatless swirls and cuts the sword.

Sharp machetes pour forward.

Some of the thick trees that were growing up were cut down at once, but there was no one in front of them.

“Moving without leaving a trace. I know it sounds absurd to me as a human being, but there's nothing strange about the fact that we're already recruited to the Seven Thrones. ”

“Who are you?”

Heatless looks around and says.

“I would have introduced you. Hidden Eater. ”

“You're not Kato Yu-na. ”

“Do you still remember that name? This...... He'll be happy to hear it. ”

An ingredient slowly revealing itself in the dark.

“It's good to see you, Lord Trammel. ”

He slowly reaches out his hand.

The glowing eyes in the black mask stare at nothing.

‘The author……. The real Hidden Eater. ’

It's not really Kato Yu-na I met at the Southern stadium.

Heatless felt that his prediction was right, but Hidden Eater was here, and he also felt that this would not be the end of the hunt for Alcar.

“Are you here for Alcar, too? ”

It wasn't that big. I didn't see a weapon to do this.

The heat is cautious of him, measuring his distance from him until his ability hidden in the veil is confirmed.

“No, on the contrary. ”

“…… what? ”

“The son of Alcar. ”

The voice that flows from the black mask.

I couldn't help but be surprised by his unthinkable words.

[Uuuuggghhh...]

Once more, you hear Alcar's roar.

A voice that somehow seems exhausted and exhausted.

“…… No way. ”

It was not enough to wipe out the northern hemisphere and drive thousands of people to their deaths, making this place the land of the dead.

‘That's why……. ’

The fever looks at him with sharp eyes.

“It was you.”
