“Yes...? ”

The faint inhale of anvil rebounds in a faint voice. But the man never opened his mouth again. I was just looking up at Ansol and asking for permission.

“Ah…. Ha, but... ”

Whether his gaze was too heavy, Ansol turned his head and avoided the man. Then, in the end, he looked at me with eager eyes. It was like, "Brother, I don't know what to do. What do I do? What do I do?” I felt like asking.

'Please give us one chance to save you and your precious ones, too?'

There is no reason for me to refuse. It's because the smell of reward smelled rough.

However, it was true that it seemed a little obvious to ask for it openly, so I smiled instead.

Ansol blinked once or twice. Then he lifts his loosely rolled hand and takes it to his mouth. The ticking of the collar seems to be quite complicated in your head.

After a while.

“Are you sure you're okay…? ”

Fortunately, Ansol did not do anything to overthrow the table. And he's still like, "Can I do this?” I was full of energy, but soon I saw a nod.

Ansol's permission has finally fallen. A bright look spread over the man's face, saying that he would repay his kindness.

- Thank you for letting me. Savior, don't be alarmed now that we have a simple ritual.

Ansol nods cautiously again.

Suddenly, I could understand how Ansol feels now. I'm always chasing around with a stooge, and I can't help but feel awkward when I'm faced with a situation that focuses on me like this.

The man slowly got up. He raised his sword in his hand high in the sky and closed his eyes to open his mouth.

- By Istanbul, I swear on the sun that rises in the sky.

'… What? In the name of Istanbul?

I quickly looked at the man with a familiar word.

However, for now, it was difficult to speak. The man chanted the spell very quickly, because the sword in his hand was slowly rising.

-... so that we may keep the Savior who led us to the light of miracles, once again.

The man exchanged orders at a rapid pace for about a minute. Eagle was burnt by the black sun rising in the sky. The brighter the light from the sword, the brighter the light that flowed through the souls.

-... to complete the vows of the soul in accordance with the laws of Istantel.

Seeing that he was finished, it seemed that the man's simple ritual was over.

I noticed the last thing. The law of Istanbul, in other words, is Istanbul Law.

I was curious about what he meant for a moment, but the mood still did not allow me to speak.

I just thought of asking Han So-young when I had the chance later, and I stared at the man.

And that was the moment.

Aaaaah!

Whoo-hoo! Whoo-hoo!

A radiant light flashed from the sword that was floating in the sky. At the same time, the light flowing through the bodies of the souls began to resonate with the light emitted by the sword.

The man smiled and said whether Ansol, who had been constantly restless, was offended.

- Don't make that face. Savior.

“But…. ”

- We are happier, prouder, happier than anyone else. It was only then that we were able to walk the path of liberation that we had not hoped for for thousands of years. If we can use our last strength for such a Savior, nothing would please us more. So please don't refuse our small gesture.

Maybe he was a little comforted by the man's sarcasm. Ansol's face was slightly brighter.

I wondered if the light flowing through the man's body was getting stronger. On the contrary, his soul began to fade.

Soon, the man who was slowly looking around the fort with a shrewd look, turned to me with his hollow eyes.

- If you'll excuse me, I have a favor to ask.

I scrunched my head in the sense that I should tell you.

- We're taking an oath right now, but we're gonna keep this kid for a while. And if you follow him, he should be able to get to the first floor of the basement easily. And….

This child that the man mentioned was a woman with golden hair who had cured my body earlier. The woman looks me in the eye and smiles. It means don't worry.

The man took a few moments, then calmly said whether he had decided.

- When you're done with the basement, there's a way to the basement floor.

“Basement two? ”

The second floor is where Magna Carta was sealed, and the Great Hero walked in on his own at the end. Perhaps, if I had predicted, the great hero might still be there.

“… I see. ”

I stared at the Sixie Man. It was because I thought I knew what was coming next.

- So when you're done, can you go upstairs and meet the great hero once?

“You want me to save the great hero, too? ”

- No, it's not. Just as we were unintentionally saved, we will leave that part intact. I just... I just want you to meet him and listen to him. And the next time we meet, I want to hear why she did it.

I said yes, since it's such a burden-free request. The man smiled with a relieved face and calmly lifted his eyes and looked up at the sky. Suddenly, the spirit around him turned into a single light, flowing into the sword one by one.

Suddenly, the man stabbed the woman next to him. When the woman turns around in surprise, the man whispers in her ear. The woman who glanced at me for a while soon, laughed and struck the man's side roughly. The man sighs violently, but his face is still smiling. I felt like I was seeing a living person.

- Then I look forward to seeing you again... Goodbye everyone...

Soon the man settled into the same beam of light with the end greeting. Finally, she falls from the intensely shining black sky, and the anvil picks her up in a hurry. I activated my third eye and looked at the fallen sword.

Sword of Oath.

(Explanation: A time of myth beyond ancient times. Dragons and humans waged a great war over the continent.... so that mythical heroes could be freed from thousands of years of pain by the miracle of the Priest of Gwangwiu.

It is a kind of vow to the Savior who guided the black light of this oath. Once, you can summon the mythical heroes who participated in the final battle when you want. Only those who return to the home of the mind, or are always willing to run whenever you call them. You can't really measure how much power you have.)

Simply put, you can summon an army of mythical heroes. I have gained a very valuable result for myself. Although there was a one-time condition, their strength was already profoundly felt.

'Really, I should only use it when I really need it.'

“Brother... ”

At that time, Ansol, holding the Sword of Oath in both hands, carefully reached out his arm. I woke up from a thought and stared at the scattered gaze. In a way, this achievement was almost like being accomplished by Ansol alone.

I think about it for a moment and shake my head calmly.

“You can have it. ”

“Yes...? Oh, no. ”

“These are the people you saved. So keep it valuable, and let me know if you need it later. ”

“Mmm-hmm. Really?"

Ansol tilts his head for a moment, but he holds the sword in his arms with his innocent, clumsy eyes. And looking down at the sword with a sad look, my heart was filled with joy.

Anyway, I just thought it was okay, and there was a bright smile on Ansol's face. I stroked Ansol's head with a smile on my face.

“Yes, now you're laughing. Our Boxing Belly.”

“... Am I a belly button? ”

“Of course. Of course. Good job. I was surprised, too. ”

“Wow...! I was praised.”

Ansol's arms are wide open. Then, it often looked like I was about to take a walk in my arms.

At the same time, however, Ansol's open arms were each captured by someone.

“Heehee. What a marvelous feat we have. Now, don't just go to your brother, come to your sister. You son of a bitch. Where did you sneak off to...? ”

“Uh, uh...? Yu, is she your sister? Why are you suddenly like this? Why are you grabbing my arm? ”

“Ouch. Come here, my brush. Who does she look like? You look like a real fox. ”

“Profit…! What are you talking about? Why is she grabbing my arm again? Let go of me. Profit…!"

After seeing Ansol being dragged by the well and Dawn, I quietly looked around.

The sky is clear and blue. The blazing sun shines upon the fort. The souls that had filled up the surroundings were nowhere to be found, and only the broken statue and scorched wall remained.

And one dragon corpse with only bones left standing. In a way, I was troubled because I could see that too as a result.

'How do I deal with that dragon...? And we need to find out why the Horsemen have horns.'

Suddenly, I felt someone tapping my shoulder. As I turned around calmly, the rest of my soul was staring at me. The woman presses her chest down as she makes eye contact with me. And then... No, no, no, no.

Are you saying follow me? '

At that moment, I cried out in a heartbeat. Then there was still something left to do.

“Attention, everyone! You've done a great job so far. But we still have work to do, so the joy of an ambush is to share it after everything is done. Arrange quickly.”

“Soo-hyun Kim! What are you gonna do about the dragon? ”

As I saw Vivian pointing at the corpse of the dragon with her greedy eyes, I quickly shook my hand.

“We can't take it now, so let's leave it here for now. Anyway, let's talk on the way, on the way. ”

“Hehe.”

Vivian sticks out her lips, but eventually she moves with a poor elasticity.

Clan One also gathered at the shovel to see if she had an idea of An-hyun in the basement. Once the alignment is complete, the woman's soul begins to move calmly towards somewhere. We chase after the woman, making fun of her busy pace.

Now, the dragon fell asleep mountain range was slowly approaching the end.

*

It wasn't that hard to find a way underground. It was because, a short distance from the central square of the fortress, a large hole could be found as the man said. When the dragon appeared, it seemed to be a massive earthquake, probably a vibration caused by forced entry from the second floor underground.

The depth of the hole is not as deep as we thought, so we were able to simply reach the first floor underground.

First, the melee families entered and landed first, and later the wizard and priest fell. And by installing the rope at the end of the climb, I did not forget to secure a way to climb back up later.

Soon after everyone had gone underground, we had to walk a straight path.

There wasn't anything special about underground. I was just walking along the wall to the left and right, and it felt like I was exploring a normal cave. Of course, we're easy to get into thanks to Magna Carta, but I don't know how difficult it is to get in normally.

The ramp of the walkway was almost flat, but it was a slight but downward curve as it felt to walk.

I chased after the woman diligently, boldly thinking.

I was wary of another battle, but there were no monsters in the basement. Just looking at you walking quietly, I think it's right to look at the hidden areas of the ruins. You have to be careful, of course, but it's kind of a bonus stage.

'Yes, the second floor is where Magna Carta was sealed, and the Great Hero finally walked in on his own.'

If so, it is likely that there is a remaining reward. So far, we can see about four rewards. Sword of Oath, Dead Dragon, and Charmed Hannah.

Hannah and Charming were quite unusual cases. On my way here, I asked him what conversation he had with the spirits earlier, and he said that one of them was the Arkus Valkyrie and the other was the Witch of Dusk. In other words, these two people were the same position as the latter.

After a short conversation, the two souls gave a gift to each successor, and that gift is power. That was ability.

Hannah was granted the power of a consonant tattoo, one of the three forces used by the Ancient Witch, and it was said that one of her potential abilities, Valhalla's blessing, evolved to be the blessing of Astra. In my own words, they both got caught up.

Honestly, even one sword of oath could be seen as an enormous reward. But man's greed is endless.

And Ahn Hyun's rescue is almost certain now. I woke up calmly, hoping for a reward on the second floor of the basement to enter after the rescue. It was because I felt the spirit of the woman who had maintained a constant speed slowly.

Looking ahead, I could see the point where the smooth slope had been bent up relatively rapidly. At first, I thought it was a simple bend, but when I looked closely, I could find traces of a human hand burn. Maybe it used to be a staircase.

In front of the bend, the woman's soul pauses. At the end of the ramp, a great darkness rests. I think I'll find a place if I go up here, but I can't see anything because of the deep darkness.

The woman's soul stops for a moment, and then it starts to move again.

As we carefully climbed up the slope along the woman, an empty darkness welcomed us. Nothing but black seemed to be visible, like a painting paper painted in black.

Heo Jun-young stood at the end of the ramp and muttered boldly.

“I don't see anything. ”

Did he hear that? Likewise, the soul of the woman in the lead slowly raises her hand.

By the time she got here, she hadn't said a word. I thought it was dumb, but it wasn't dumb when I thought about it. She was the one who put the translation spell on the man, and I clearly heard her chanting when she healed me.

It was then.

Suddenly, I was curious to check the information of the woman with the third eye, but I shaken her raised hand lightly.

At the same time.

Papa Papa Papa Papa Pot!

Like turning on dozens of fluorescent lights simultaneously, a bright light illuminated a space that was dark and sunny to the top.

I immediately raised my arms and covered my eyes. For a moment, there was a flash of intense light that was blinding.

Waiting a little longer, I can now feel the light fading so thin that I can see it.

And with restored vision, the space that removed the darkness slowly revealed itself.

= = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = =

Let's see. The rescue part of Ahn Hyun will end in the next session. And the next part will be the face to face with the great hero and the remaining reward recovery part. I think we're almost done with this part of the Ruins Invasion.

Ah, I saw your comment yesterday. And unfortunately, most of the restrictions I set were there, but there were a lot of interesting comments. I was surprised that not many people had similar ideas to mine. Hahaha.

And the federation... Well, I was a little shocked when I saw yesterday's comment. I can't believe you're just feeding him dumplings while you're stuck in the world. No, you want me to be a woman. Where is that? Blah blah blah.

Really, what was that comment before? During the dress rehearsal setup, An-hyun's confession was heard because she had a virgin retention setting, and she laughed a lot when she saw the comments.

'Haha, what an idiot. If you can't go forward, you can either go back or your mouth.' (I was too embarrassed to use sarcasm, so I was as gentle as possible.)

Marie Antoinette said, "If you don't have bread, you can have cake.” Comments that come to mind. Blah blah blah.
