Main Character Hides His Strength

On the way to Ixion, Kim Sung-cheol was fortunate to find a wagon and two tamed horses around it.

Kim Sung-cheol, who got what he could ride like a brick, went forward on his own volleyball, but shortly after, he could often find the people who live there.

Those who have not left the East.

They were extremely afraid of outsiders.

Just when I saw Kim Sung-cheol coming from a distance, I hid in the house and killed him.

Kim Sung-cheol deliberately walked through the village.

“What kind of place is Ixion? ”

Kim Sung-cheol recalled the old memories that had been kept quiet in Bertelkia's question for a moment.

“A small country. There was a magic school.”

“Is this place better than Airfurt? ”

“Well, I don't know about that, but I remember a place in the east that was considered a luxury. ”

The eastern part of the rich continent was more populous and highly educational than others. There was no great country and no strong army, but the talent that underpinned everything was much richer than the West or the Middle.

That's why Kim Sung-cheol was not surprised by the emergence of hidden powers from the eastern world such as Phoebe Canvas or Angelo Lux.

Therefore, the emperor did not want the wealth of the eastern countries to unite. Because if a great nation is created that encompasses the entire east, the empire could pose a great threat to the occupied hegemony.

The Kingdom of Rutheginia regularly invaded the east, trampling potential rivals with countless balms and slaves, but the emperor controlled the east through elaborate diplomatic tactics and seizures.

Ixion was one of the nodes Kim Sung-cheol used to occupy to attract the east.

“... The king of Ixion was a small but unusual figure with a dull appearance. He denied the establishment of the World Congress to the end. ”

“I'm not really curious about who the king is. ”

“I only remember the king. The streets were moderately beautiful, but not unusual. ”

I passed something by Kim Sung-cheol who said that.

“Oh, and there was that. ”

“What?"

“There was a shop that made an amazing onion soup. There's never been a better store on the entire continent. ”

“Again, the story of eating again. ”

“ ……. ”

Bertelgia didn't like the topic of eating very much. One of the reasons I became unable to eat was that I didn't feel much joy about eating in the first place.

“So what do you like? ”

It was the first time Kim Sung-cheol asked about Bertelkian delicacies.

“Me?”

“Yes.”

At Kim Sung-cheol's question, Bertelkia fell on the seat next to the horse rack, lost in thought, and then came up with something and said in a cheerful tone.

“Locusts.”

“Locusts?”

“Yes, it's delicious to take your legs off and roast them on fire! ”

Hearing that, Kim Sung-cheol thought to himself.

‘One time, he yelled at me for eating dog sticks. ’

Kim Sung-cheol doesn't eat locusts.

I don't eat insects very often, but I would never use them as a substitute for something other than special delicacies.

“Honestly, I didn't have much else to eat in my life. The weather continues to be bad, the famine continues, and I live on grass and grain that my muscles can eat. ”

Bertelkia speaks in a dull tone like Mo.

“Really?"

“Still, the seven heroes seemed to be eating something delicious. I used to say Desport was a good man, and every time I came home, I gave him something to eat. ”

“Not a bad guy at heart. ”

The journey continued.

Ixion soon arrived before my eyes.

At the far end of the horizon, you notice the creature grows up.

Is that the city that was built in one night? I can hardly see the past. ’

As he got closer to the city, Kim Sung-cheol strongly assumed that Ixion was not a mere subordinate city.

High, elegant walls surround the city, and countless spires rise above it.

It could not be seen as a city built in a single day.

Under the walls, Kim Sung-cheol was able to see the spectacular balanced structures and decorations of the castle walls that were closer to one piece of art than a defensive facility.

But what worries me more is the foreign energy that was given to the whole city.

Various boundaries and unknown uses were tightly enveloped throughout the city.

It looks like you can't just invade the earth, or under the earth, or in the sky.

Kim Sung-cheol who saw it thought to himself.

‘Maybe the scariest thing about this city is that it wasn't built in one day, it was a ritual that surrounded the city. ’

The witches below guard the door.

They immediately blew the horn when Kim Sung-cheol came under the wall.

“Are you the one who broke it? ”

A medic approached and politely asked Sung-cheol Kim.

Kim Sung-cheol nodded and the door opened.

Beyond the gates lies an endless number of people.

“Please, come inside. ”

The guards politely led Kim Sung-cheol inside.

As Kim Sung-cheol broke through the barrier and entered the walls, the crowds raised their voices toward Kim Sung-cheol.

“Crushers are your precautions! ”

“Worship the One Who Destroys All! ”

Suddenly, the chapter of the festival unfolds in the quiet city of Ivory.

While the bells of the bell are ringing endlessly, petals are scattered all over the place and there is exciting music.

The crowds in Ixion truly welcomed Kim Sung-cheol's visit.

“What? This is scary. ”

It wasn't hard for Bertelkia to shake.

Since becoming an enemy of the world, Kim Sung-cheol has never been welcomed like this.

“ ……. ”

But what was even more suspicious was the peculiar flow of air flowing throughout the city.

I can't say for sure, but the air in the city feels fundamentally different from the outside.

It's like a sense of order in a different world.

Kim Sung-cheol is sensitive to this because he has had similar experiences in the past.

‘I feel similar to the otherness I felt on the way to God. It's clearly different from that…’

However, there is nothing in this world that can harm Kim Sung-cheol like something appears.

While thinking that, Kim Sung-cheol looked around.

There was a statue of a presence all over the city.

A strong male statue with four arms.

He was more of a devil than a man, or a godly creature like God.

What the hell is that? It is a shape I have never seen. ’

There were too many sculptures of the same kind that sculptors made on their own.

Kim Sung-cheol asked the soldier who accompanied him.

“What's that? ”

When Kim Sung-cheol asked, the soldier smiled brightly and replied.

“I am Sydney, the guardian of the city. ”

“Sydney?”

I haven't heard that name.

“I don't know, I'm an outsider, but I've been a guardian in Ixion for a long time. ”

It's a no-brainer.

No matter how much pagan faith is subject to oppression, it is Kim Sung-cheol who has been in Ixion for a long time.

I've never seen a sculpture like that before in Sydney.

"That's odd.A city built in one day becomes the center of paganism." ’

Kim Sung-cheol quietly walked back to the crowd, each with a smile and staring at him with astonishing eyes.

The Palace of Vestiaret lies beneath the living quarters in the center of the ivory city.

Bestiare was waiting for Sung-cheol Kim with small servants who resemble her at the entrance of the palace.

“I waited for my throat to fall out. Crusher.”

Bestiare greets you politely with a big smile.

“What are you up to? ”

Despite the great visions that brought a lot of crowds, Kim Sung-cheol's voice was chilly.

What is happening now is that we have seen that the Scarecrow system of Vestiaret is hidden.

“What are you up to? I only treated you with the utmost sincerity. ”

Vestiaret replied, staring at Kim Sung-cheol.

And she led Kim Sung-cheol inside.

Kim Sung-cheol silently followed her into the Palace of Vestiaret, located under the living quarters.

When I entered the reception room with pure white tones, small Vestiares brought out tea and refreshments.

Bertelkia, in her pocket, looks at the little Vestiaret and has an unpleasant reaction.

“What? Them. Homeunculus is no fairy...”

“We don't need to dig into the wizards' tricks. Bertelkia.”

Kim Sung-cheol picked up a teacup with a pile of steam and tasted the aroma.

It's the best. It doesn't smell of poison.

Kim Sung-cheol drank a lot of tea.

It has the same great flavor as the aroma.

However, the sweets were a little unqualified for his taste.

“How was it? What was the taste of my own tea and homemade sweets? ”

Having enjoyed the tea, Vestiaret appeared alone in the reception room.

Kim Sung-cheol stared at her and said bluntly.

“Tea is a commodity, but sweets are medium-sized. ”

“Oh my gosh, what an evaluation. ”

Kim Sung-cheol silently watched Vestiaret sitting in front of him with her eyes still filled with hostility.

Kim Sung-cheol said as soon as she took her seat.

“What do you want? ”

On Kim Sung-cheol's question, Vestiaret smiled and tasted her share of tea.

Looking at her, Kim Sung-cheol honestly admitted to himself that the beauty of Vestiaret is hard to see across the entire continent.

‘You must have been considered the most beautiful of the High Elves. ’

However, I was old enough to be moved by the appearance of the woman. Not even a shaky body.

Vestiaret opened his mouth, gazing at Kim Sung-cheol with a heavy gaze after tasting the tea.

“You and I don't have to fight. ”

“You mean you want to make peace? ”

I was about to say something similar to Dragoman, but I held it down.

Drago isn't the only one who cares.

However, Kim Sung-cheol did not want to reveal the information he had obtained from Drago Bay to Vestiaret.

“I can see why you took the 13th continent off the road. There are some interesting facts. ”

Bestiare put down the tea cup and looked into Kim Sung-cheol's eyes.

I couldn't find a single change in Kim Sung-cheol's eyes.

“So?”

He only asked in a blunt tone.

Bestiare smiles faintly.

“You had a wonderful time adopting the daughter of Princess Ruettignier. until she was condemned to extinction and put to death. ”

“ ……. ”

“The curse of extinction. ”

A meaningful smile came to mind at the mouth of Vestiaret.

“The curse is often said to be unsolvable by God in the world right now. ”

“What do you want to say? ”

“The curse of extinction is not an unsolvable curse, as the people of today know. ”

“You mean you can lift the curse of extinction? ”

Bestiare nodded, smiling at Kim Sung-cheol's thorny question.

“Yes.”

Hearing that, Kim Sung-cheol recalled an unpleasant memory. A long time ago, I remember the lions pranking in the footsteps of the lions left in the Summon Palace.

At that time, Kim Sung-cheol was quite angry and decided to kill Sazatos first and then took action.

“I want to show you something. You seem to trust your eyes more than your ears, so it might be effective to show a scene instead of a long word. ”

Vestiaret got up from his seat.

Kim Sung-cheol stood up and followed behind her with a lot of doubts and questions squirming inside.

Vestiaret walks to the back of the palace.

As I entered the backyard of the palace, the figure of a giant kneeling in front of me blindfolded.

Kim Sung-cheol opened his mouth, staring at the giant.

“Are you sure you have something to show me? ”

“No, it's down there. ”

Vestiaret points to the bottom of the mountain.

Inside, a dome-shaped building the size of a noble mansion was hidden under the shadow of a giant.

An ordinary building on the outside.

I don't see any other features or spelling.

“Come inside. ”

Bestiare smiles and says.

“If this is a trap, you'd better be prepared. ”

Kim Sung-cheol opened the marble door without hesitation and went inside the building.

Kim Sung-cheol inside the building heard a sound that made him doubt his ears.

The child's laugh.

It's the sound of life I've heard in years.

Kim Sung-cheol's pace naturally accelerated and soon he could see.

Newborns in the arms of young mothers.

New life, which was never seen again because of the curse of extinction, appeared again in the narrow dome.

“... What the hell is going on? ”

Kim Sung-cheol asked as he felt the trembling deep inside his body.
