Main Character Hides His Strength

57. The Letter of God (2)

The easiest and easiest way is through violence.

So far, Kim Sung-cheol has enjoyed using that method.

There's no trade on falcons.

But a few reasons have made violence reluctant.

It's Largo's mental state.

Kim Sung-cheol worked at her place for two months and knew that her mental state was about to collapse due to drugs and depression.

A hawk has no business, but it doesn't work on a fanatic.

Besides, she's innocent.

It's not Kim Sung-cheol's taste to hold a layman captive and rub his nose in a very urgent situation.

Therefore, Sung-cheol Kim chose a gentle method.

We become friends with Largo and find a way to meet the Apocalypse.

But it's very difficult for Kim Sung-cheol.

Kim Sung-cheol is a long way from a clingy person.

In the car I was thinking about, Bertelkia gives me an opinion.

“Kim Chi probably knows the Apocalypse, too. You seem to know something about it, considering it's therapeutic. ”

Otherwise, Roxanne Hand will be running the magic shop through Kim Chi.

Kim Sung-cheol took Bertelgia's offer and headed to Catacombs.

In conclusion, it was a failure.

What Kim believed in was not the treatment through the Apocalypse, but the treatment through the Mura Church, which was deeply rooted in Lagranze.

It is the Mura Church, one of the two great churches of Lagranze, who destroyed Sung-cheol Kim.

However, it must be written as a treatment and read as an abortion.

The treatment uses a potentially life-threatening medicine for a mother. However, the difference between the Church's skilled healers and other cult procedures is the care of the mother.

“Just a little more and we'll be able to do it. Work wasn't as dangerous as I was worried. But not for long. Roxanne loses a small hand. ”

Kim Sung-cheol answered Kim's question with a bright face after a long time.

“I see.”

Kim Sung-cheol was disappointed, but he didn't show up on the surface.

Kimchi moved on to another topic.

“And about before, I explained it to Dr. Erfurt. I'll sell you the stuff because I'm talking about you. ”

Although the original objective was somewhat obsolete, other objectives seemed to be achievable.

Kim Sung-cheol went back to Catacombs with Kim.

A few gatekeepers were guarding the front, but when I saw Kim Chi, I stepped forward without saying a word.

The magic shop in Airfurt is located in the corner of Catacombs.

It was a place filled with books and tools with bookshelves in a space filled with skeletons.

At its heart lies a master called Airfurt. Airfurt was a guy with a Middle Eastern wind fur with a beard like a sponge.

“Are you from Airfurt? ”

Kim Sung-cheol suddenly asked as soon as he saw him.

“No.”

Aefret told me the truth.

“I wanted to go to Airfurt, but I couldn't, so I decided to call myself Airfurt. ”

“Ah.”

“Erfurt's death has made his wish unfulfilled. Tell me what you want. ”

Kim Sung-cheol found the runes first.

As the tall grimoire merchant said on the pavement, Airfurt had a number of helpful runes.

Kim Sung-cheol bought a defensive rune and a magic defensive rune, in addition to that, a rune of detection and a rune of coverage expansion.

‘With this, I can establish a defensive technique and boundary system. ’

I couldn't get a grimoire for a higher level spell, so I couldn't create a powerful defensive grimoire of Sazatos or Marrakia, but it will come in handy depending on the situation.

More useful are the runes of detection and the runes of range expansion.

The rune of detection is a versatile seal that serves to detect all intruders within the seal, and is at the heart of establishing boundaries with runes of range expansion that increase the size of the spell.

Kim Sung-cheol had never felt the need for boundary systems, but as long as something as tricky appeared, he became a necessity.

Of course, it was not cheap.

Airfurt called for a substantial sum.

The price of the runes that make up the boundary was unbelievably high.

It's a little less than the amount I brought.

Kim Sung-cheol had no choice but to take out a gold coin from the Soul Bank and calculate it.

Aefret's eyes widen as she saw it.

"The Soul Warehouse"? You look like a poor man, but you have quite a bit of money. Is this some kind of trick? "

The attitude of Aerfurt did not realize that Kim Sung-cheol had a lot of money.

He suggested other items besides the runes.

A powerful grimoire of academic factions came out of his soulmate one after the other.

Kim Sung-cheol saw it and pulled out a few more gold coins from the Soul Bank.

Airfurt's eyes are on fire.

‘That's what I'm talking about. I'll make you use it all! ’

However, there was nothing particularly noticeable about Kim Sung-cheol.

Most of them were popular flamethrowers and icebergs.

Kim Sung-cheol suddenly said, after going through all the grimoires.

“Looking for long-range teleport magic? ”

Given the magic needed right away, it seemed best to be able to travel a long distance quickly.

This will be useful for hunting seven heroes in the future.

“Long-distance teleport? That's hard to come by. When it comes to money, even those who leave records tend to record one-time wizards to reduce the transfers. ”

“Which school's magic is that? ”

“Sensitive. Very expensive for non-combat, non-literary subjects. ”

“I see.”

Kim Sung-cheol got up from his seat.

I didn't want anything else.

“Don't you like anything? ”

Airfurt is on fire.

“Not really.”

“Well, how about this? ”

Aefret smiles in contrition and picks out a very old parchment scroll from the Soul Warehouse and places it on his desk.

“This is a very precious item. ”

“What is this? ”

“Called the ancient letter, it's one of the first documents to record the letters of God. Nobody knows what's in there, but if you're looking for something special, why don't you take a look? ”

That was enough to reverse Kim Sung-cheol's steps.

Kim Sung-cheol sat back on the chair and stared at the old document on the table.

Once I looked on the outside, there were long traces of time.

But Kim Sung-cheol knows.

that tricksters use technology that can transform a book they made yesterday into an ancient book that lasts a thousand years in one night.

Kim Sung-cheol examined the scroll in a test mood.

‘Hmm.'

It's old, but it's subtle somewhere.

As you try to unseal the scroll, Aefret across the hall grins and laughs.

“I'm sorry, but no one can see that. It requires a lot of intuition. God doesn't want his letters to be deciphered by anyone. ”

“Really? How much intuition do you need? ”

“I heard that at least 500 intuition is enough to read the first letter in there. But the rumor is that you need over 900 readings to decipher them properly. ”

“900?"

Kim Sung-cheol doubted his ears.

It's a lot to take in, but what idiot wants to raise his intuition to 900?

The final grimoire of the Interdisciplinary Magic Clan can be read from around 400 points of insight.

Even the primitive light containing starlight, Kim Sung-cheol's most powerful magic, didn't it just require 500 intuition?

If there are more than that, there are no existing ones requiring more than 600 intuition.

I don't know if it was in the ancient world.

Who in this situation raises any more pointless intuition?

Although Kim Sung-cheol's intuition was over 600, Kim Sung-cheol now felt it was unnecessarily high.

“I know. It's an impossibility. ”

Airfurt said with his beard tied.

“But I assure you, it's not a scam. If you're curious, open the book. Don't fall too far. If you misread God's letters, you could destroy your mind! ”

Kim Sung-cheol opened his book against the semi-religious.

But the moment I opened the book, I saw Kim Sung-cheol.

Infinite letters in old bookshelves spread all over the place, surrounding themselves like stars in the night sky.

This... this...?! ’

You hear the voice of Airfurt sitting across the table in a faint shape.

“What is it, bro? Can you see anything? You're not saying it's over 500 intuition, are you? ”

His voice disappears with a faint laugh.

Kim Sung-cheol was at some point in another world.

In a sea of letters.

What the hell is this? ’

I can't feel anything.

An unknown letter appeared in front of Kim Sung-cheol.

It's not ancient or current. It's a text I've never seen before.

Kim Sung-cheol felt the sensation conveyed in his head as if a new life had been born.

Inside, I saw Kim Sung-cheol.

An infinite number of literals made up of a syllable.

A few faint meanings came to mind in Kim Sung-cheol's ritual, while an insufferable whisper resounded from all sides like thunder.

[… total collapse is inevitable.]

[… harvest only delays the day of the end]

[… in the world where the gods died]

I couldn't take it anymore.

Kim Sung-cheol turned his eyes away from the text, feeling like something important was about to break.

“ ……. ”

The infinite texts that spread like stars disappeared.

Kim Sung-cheol looked around.

Inside the Ossuary.

Aefret, sitting across the street, was staring at Sung-cheol Kim with a suspicious face, and Bertelkia in her arms was shaking violently and waking up Sung-cheol Kim.

Kim Sung-cheol took a deep breath while gently catching Bertelkia.

“I thought you were a decent friend, but you're acting pretty good. Are you telling me you have over 500 intuition? Even in Airfurt? ”

Aefret stared suspiciously at Sung-cheol Kim with narrow eyes.

Kim Sung-cheol awkwardly surrounded him, feeling a stalk of cold sweat flowing from his back.

“... You caught me. ”

“That won't save you any money, so don't bother. Besides, there's not a whole lot of way to look at that book. ”

“You have more than 900 intuition? ”

Probably not

Not a single person in the whole world.

I don't know if a dragon clan lives forever.

Kim Sung-cheol thought so and looked at Aefrert's face.

“Rumor has it there are people who can read God's texts regardless of their intuition. ”

“That's a no-brainer. ”

Kim Sung-cheol has gained access to the most secret knowledge as an enemy of the Empire. It can't be that he doesn't know.

“You don't believe me. Well, I didn't see it, so I'm pretty sure I'm right, but there is. An elected reader or reader in Rutheginia. Oh, don't look at me like that. It's real!”

“ ……. ”

After rolling his eyes for a long time, Aefret felt embarrassed by Kim Sung-cheol's gaze, he opened his eyes and said.

“That's right. There she is! Princess Rise of the Dead! ”

As soon as he heard his name, Kim Sung-cheol felt an electric shock all over his body.

Raise Himer...?! ’

It continued to tell the story of Airfurt even before the tremor had faded.

“There's a rumor she reads. I don't know if you know, but she's not royal blood. King Cromgard himself named her his adoptive wife. ”

“ ……. ”

If you talk nonsense, you will listen with one ear and spill it with one ear, but Aefret's words are true.

Raise Heimer is neither royal nor noble. Rather, there are rumors that she is the daughter of a farmhouse and that she is the daughter of a merchant.

She's the daughter of a wandering healer, to be exact.

The story of Erfurt continues.

“Rumor has it that Chromgard took her as his adopted daughter because of her beauty and her special innate abilities, not her territory. ”

“Where did you hear that story? ”

The air around you has changed.

Airfurt, a moment when he calmly brought out his story, could feel the strange sensation of the air around him piercing his body like a needle.

‘Wh-what?! ’

He felt late.

The strangling pressure comes from an unknown underdog.

If you don't answer correctly, you may die.

Aefret stammers, feeling an ominous premonition.

“Galf... Galf told me! The old man who got his head chopped off when the rebels took Lagrein and tried the war criminals. ”

“Gulf...? You mean Le Fevre Galf, the Black Magic Place? ”

Aefret nodded at Kim Sung-cheol's question.

It looked like it was not just for the surrounding.

The life that came out of Kim Sung-cheol's body disappeared.

“I see. Any other stories? ”

Kim Sung-cheol said in a soft voice.

He took another gold coin out of the Soul Warehouse, not to mention the two gold coins he had in his palm, in return for his ceremony.

Aerfurt was surprised for a moment, but the three gold coins came in at once, giving him the courage not to tell the whole truth about himself.

“The divine text is not the only one. There must have been quite a bit of paperwork gathered from all over the secret archives in Ruettignia. But as Ruettignier fell, the scroll was scattered. This is one of them. Anyway, the Dark Army of Chromium Gale is obsessed with this ancient document. So, what, you drop the state. That's what they say. ”

I've never heard of it.

But I can't say it's a lie.

Kim Sung-cheol remembers.

Raise Himer's words.

I remember being with her.

Unilaterally, the letters she was sending.

Soul harvester, Thunder Shield, Eye of Truth.

The means to stand alone against the whole world.

And the path to God in the last letter.

I felt the sensation of a faint connection between the truth that had already happened but could never be understood.

Kim Sung-cheol found it in a place he had never thought of.

Something he didn't know.

But it's no coincidence.

There is no coincidence to him, the instrument of God.

Only an unchanging journey called destiny resides.

The man who knew his destiny best was now looking down at the lush town above District 8.

“I can't believe there's an accident going on all night long. Eight boroughs of garbage, even if you burn them all down. This sucks, but it sucks! ”

The young Admiral Arcubus, commander of the Islands Defence Fleet, smiles bitterly and stares at the back of the woman looking down at the ground.

Soon, the woman said,

“It won't be a big deal. It's gonna be a minor setback. ”

The mouth of the arqueductor reminds me of a strong cynicism.

“As you know, the coming Youth Night is the largest celebration of Lagranje. The event is also held by the Emperor himself. ”

“… I know that. ”

“If you ruin another blessed day because of your worthless reporting, then I will no longer ignore it. Regret.”

On a frostbite from the arcuvus, Viceroy Lee Su-jin muttered in a slightly unconfident voice.

“Maybe...”
