‘Is this the story of Adelheit? ’

The moment he heard that she was a witch who lived forever, Kim Sung-cheol remembered the ghost forest witch who cursed him.

Akun Gandarba's story continues.

“The appearance of the witch changed in many forms over time. One time it was Lizardman, the other time it was Joyne. There are stories of fishermen living in the sea. This is how she fits in with the dominant ethnic group that she lives in. ”

In this subject, Kim Sung-cheol stared at the leading Akun Gandharba's back. What purpose did this slow walking rich have in bringing up this story?

In doubt, the story continues.

“But the factions she imitated once flourished, but eventually walked the path of destruction or a similar decline. because of the heavenly trials of disaster. Many races were wiped out in the disaster, but as long as the witch lived forever, she stayed in the old forest and lived a quiet life. She was a bystander. ”

At that time, three forks appeared in front of Kim Sung-cheol and Akun Gandarba. A long golem stood guard at the crossroads.

In a few words that Akun Gandarba could not understand, the golem stepped aside and froze like a statue.

Akun Gandarba chose the right of the three forks. At the crossroads, Akun Gandharba resumes his short pause.

“After living such an eternal life, she met a young man who was lost and wandered through the forest one day. A normal young man? If so, the story won't form. He was an incredibly beautiful, brilliant, jewel-like, hard-working person. The witch lived forever, but nevertheless, the young man was perfect enough to shock her. ”

“ ……. ”

No one comes to mind.

He knew that no mortal had solved the disaster before the seven heroes existed. Then, the seven heroes should be the best of men, but the seven heroes were not as famous as Kim Sung-cheol himself.

“Is it human? ”

Kim Sung-cheol asked.

Akun Gandarba nods, grinning.

“It was a human. You're interested in this story. I can't believe you asked me that question.”

“ ……. ”

“Either way, the witch is interested in the young man despite thousands of years of life. He's also attracted to a magician with a mystical charm. It didn't take long for attention and interest to turn into love. However, the harsh fate of the two lovers was waiting for them to say goodbye. ”

“Disaster? ”

Kim Sung-cheol asked in a calm tone.

A single drop of water makes a clear sound as it falls shortly.

“Yes. The mortals of that age could not overcome the trials of the gods. So the only fate that awaited them was extinction. The young man also gets a shadow of death. For the first time in her life, she will feel the pain of breaking her heart. It was strange that when you killed tens of millions of your own kind, your heart would bring so much pain to the death of just one person. ”

“So what's the verdict? ”

I don't want to admit it, but Kim Sung-cheol became interested in Rich's story. But he's a mean audience. He had a bizarre habit of finding interesting cartoons in the cartoons from the end.

Bertelgia trembled and paid attention to Kim Sung-cheol.

“Oh, what's the matter with you? What are you gonna do when you decide to have all the fun? ”

“No. It's...”

Kim Sung-cheol kept his mouth shut as he tried to excuse himself.

Akun Gandarba gives a grim smile and opens his mouth again, waiting for the atmosphere to abate.

“Witches, though they belong outside the boundary, could not defy God's will. He had to die. But the witch didn't want to lose him. So the witch makes her decision. ”

Akun Gandarba's eyes gleam.

At the same time, a vacancy appeared in front of Kim Sung-cheol's group.

The darkroom with nothing.

However, as Akun Gandharba flicked his fuzzy finger, a flame rose from the center of the void, creating a river of fire along the small corridor at the bottom edge, and then one after the other ignited a lamp to illuminate the entire room.

It was literally a light in the dark.

Kim Sung-cheol could see the statue of a young man and woman under a space full of light.

It was the ancestor of a beautiful woman who wrapped her dying young man in her two hands.

‘That's a face I don't recognize. At least not the face of Adele White. ’

There's nothing wrong with a man's face.

Akun Gandarba's voice is heard.

“She has decided to give up her secrets. ”

“Your secret? ”

Kim Sung-cheol's eyes reminded me of this.

“Yes. Immortal secrets. The most secret reason she has eternal life. ”

“Is it…? ”

“Transfusion of the soul. ”

Kim Sung-cheol's eyes reminded me of a frightening light.

"Soul Wars? Is that even possible? I've seen it several times as a regretter, but I've never heard or seen anything like it. ’

In the ear of Sung-cheol Kim, who was thinking, Rich's grim voice was dug out.

“With the magic of destroying the soul of another and transporting the soul into an empty body, the witch has transformed the body several times by adopting a disciple. In the presence of the gods. ”

Kim Sung-cheol, who had been listening to the story for a while, entered the central statue that had been forgotten.

The moment I saw a dying young man, I remembered a bad family in Kim Sung-cheol's brain.

‘No way. The owner of that statue?! ’

At the moment of the shiver in Kim Sung-cheol's body, Akun Gandharba said in a sudden voice.

“But then, she shared her secrets. a hero who's going to build a country that's going to be called the Holy Rueginean Kingdom in the future. ”

“He's not Cromgard, is he? ”

Kim Sung-cheol asked with a voice that was still shaking.

“There were several kings in the Holy Ruthegium, but technically there was only one. The rest are just skins with different names and flesh. ”

That is,

The Imperial Sewers Keeper was so bold as to tell the secret of the Holy Rutheginia Kingdom.

A nation with only one king, from its founder to its last king. That is the reality of the Holy Rutherghinean Kingdom.

Taking into account whether the word is true or not, the story gives rise to more than a thousand questions and assumptions just by listening. Kim Sung-cheol also looked at the puffy rich standing under his ancestors, feeling a question of growing indefinitely with his tail in his head.

“What is the purpose of this story? ”

Kim Sung-cheol cleverly sought to resolve the confusion by finding out the identity of the other person who told this story rather than being submerged in a mysterious swamp.

“To tell you the truth. The true purpose of King Cromgard and the truth of this twisted world. ”

“Distorted world? ”

Kim Sung-cheol asked, but the Imperial sewer manager burst into laughter.

“You already know, don't you? A hero your size. The fact that the so-called gods in the world today is not the same as the tuna who borrowed the name of God. ”

“ ……. ”

Kim Sung-cheol felt frightened by the subject.

It is because what Akun Gandarba said was not very different from what Kim Sung-cheol had long abstracted.

“Those who call them gods now are traitors who betray the gods who gave them power and put a scaffold on their backs. They saw God for themselves, even if they weren't God, and changed the world that God made for them. That's the world today, sustained by a sense of disaster. ”

Akun Gandarba talks his way there, then turns around and walks forward again. Leaving the world full of light behind, Kim Sung-cheol thought about where that Akun Gandharba got that knowledge. The answer came right out.

‘Adele White would not have told me. She rarely shares. Perhaps Chromium Gale gained this knowledge through the writings of the gods. Especially through one woman...! ’

I passed by with a girl's face who was smiling maliciously at herself in Kim Sung-cheol's eyes.

Rise Hymer.

Owner of a peculiarity with the reader's ability, called the White Tiger Tribe or the New Dragon Tribe.

Chromium Gale may have tried to access the truth of the world through her, and it seems that she has established her own mind.

That Imperial Sewermaster is just a recounter of Cromgard's thoughts.

“King Chromgard has spent countless years trying to put an end to this distorted system. In the Middle East, a world that seemed to move only by human desires began with one clear purpose. The founding of the Holy Rutherguinea Kingdom was also part of its great work. And that destruction was also his relief. ”

“The destruction of the Kingdom of Rutheginia was his plan? ”

Kim Sung-cheol felt a slight excitement with humiliation.

But I had already convinced myself to some extent. The difference between the true power of the Wandering King and the power of the Rebellion was clear.

“The emperor has heard all this from King Cromgard. He found out. The fact that the hero who rose from the abhorrence of the world in one body is merely playing a part that is already prepared. He accepted King Cromgard's offer in his self-loathing and in his self-loathing. ”

Then a faint light flashed from the front.

At the same time, Kim Sung-cheol felt a breeze of fresh air coming from the front.

The exit is closing in.

“Why did Cromgard abandon his kingdom? ”

Kim Sung-cheol asked, and Akun Gandarba pondered the coming dawn in a low voice.

“The false gods have begun to pay attention to King Cromgard. From time to time, monsters in the shape of books appeared around Ragranze and began to spy on King Cromgard. ”

When I heard it, I saw books that resemble Bertelgia, but had a different personality.

“It was inevitable that King Cromgard would find the best of the humans to do his bidding, and he would finally choose the current emperor. But the king also overlooked one thing. The emperor, William Quinton Marlborough. ”

Then there was another fork in the road.

Two forks.

Akun Gandarba points his finger to the right.

“Turn right here and you can see King Cromgard's hard work. ”

“Which way does it go? ”

“This way to the Old Town. ”

“The old city. ”

The last remaining territory for the Wandering King was destroyed by the Kingdom of Rutherginia. It was sealed tightly at the peak of the Human Empire, and no one was allowed in or out.

Even to Kim Sung-cheol, the second most prolific member of the empire, called the enemy of the Empire.

“In the basement of the Old Town, King Cromgard has been preparing for thousands of years to undermine the order of false gods. Would you like to take a look? ”

“... Lead the way. ”

Akun Gandarba chanted in a grim voice and silenced Kim Sung-cheol in between.

“Come with me.”

The road was dark and long.

It will take some time.

Nevertheless, Kim Sung-cheol did not miss that time. No, I didn't even feel bad about it.

‘The emperor knew all about this. Then why didn't he tell you any of this? ’

If he had known the secrets of the world, he would have understood everything and prepared to help the emperor. Even if he had broken his promise to Raise Heimer, he would have followed the Emperor's orders.

But the emperor said nothing.

Dysphagia.

My faith in the Emperor began to shake in the darkness.
