Possessing Nothing

The lightning horse opened his eyes and didn't say anything for a moment. While looking up at the sky, the miner realized that he was losing his mind because he had surrendered himself to madness, and he did not know how much time had passed since. Only after his frightening eyes turned towards Lee Sung-min, the miner commander woke up completely.

“Huff!”

The miner flicks his back as he makes a frightening sound. The lightning horse, stumbling back and forth, looked at Lee Sung-min with a cautious attitude. The memory of losing consciousness is clear. It was natural for me to give myself to photopathy but not for a long time. KwangcheonMa remembered Lee Sung-min who had shredded the cyclone with a single gesture and shined his eyes and strangled his neck.

“... No, it's different...”

Lee Sung-min then is not the same person as Lee Sung-min now. Guangcheon Ma noticed it through her eyes and the prayer that flowed out. However, it did not make the boundaries completely compromised. It's because we didn't know when the unknown monster and the terrifying energy would overwhelm us.

“What are you...? What the hell is he doing...? ”

The miners stuttered and asked. Lee Seong-min turned away without answering. He reaches for the miner, picking up the spear he put down.

“Are you feeling a little calm? ”

“Hmmm...”

The miner was a confused face, but he didn't confront Lee Sung-min like before. It was a strange feeling. I don't want to be hostile with rational people from the inside. It was an unconscious impulse, but it was definitely affecting the miners.

[I have my strength in his power failure. That bastard is affected by it, so he won't be able to antagonize you directly with me.]

“... What have you done to me? ”

The question of the miners flew in with a voice of carelessness. Lee thought about it for a moment.

[Do I need to explain? Just answer the question and let it go. I'm sure he'll hear you. If you don't hear me, I'll beat you up a little bit.]

‘You must be able to defeat them. ’

[You don't understand. To put it simply, your relationship with that wretch is similar to that of the kin. Just as the man at the bottom of the bloodline cannot defy his mother, Lord, he cannot defy you. That doesn't mean he'll be subjugated to unilateral ascension... but he won't be able to kill you just because you beat him to death. If we're going to do that, we're going to lose power in his hands.]

Is it really that easy? Lee looked into the eyes of the miners and said,

“It doesn't matter what I did to you. ”

“It doesn't matter. ”

The miners groan.

“So... Senior GwangcheonMa. I have a few questions, can you answer them? ”

“… Hnng…”

Ordinarily, I wouldn't have listened, but Guangcheon Horse tilted his head with a sound of pain. The emotion that I didn't know continued to be impulsive. Eventually, the miner took a sigh and sat down and nodded his head.

“What do you want to know? ”

“There is an essence of strength in an elderly man's power. Do you know what it is? ”

“... There's something at play here? ”

The mineral glare frowns. He sits down with his diaphragm on and enters the airborne. Even though Lee Sung-min was right in front of him, he did not hesitate to act. I opened my eyes for a while when a miner was closing his eyes.

“I don't know what you're talking about. There are only internal air defects in the locus. ”

The miner answered with a steady voice.

[Interesting.]

In response, Heju chuckles and mutters.

[The bastard doesn't even know that he has strength in his own right. And yet you remain human. I've never seen anything like this before... Hmm.]

What is it?

[Here's the thing.]

After saying that, Heju remained silent for a moment. It seemed to be organizing the ideas that came to mind. Kyungcheon Ma looked at Lee Sung-min, silent and silent. However, the miner didn't understand why he was looking at Lee Sung-min.

"Why does the chapter see such a child? ’

KwangcheonMa was a man without fanaticism. He had a star called Guangcheon Ma, and that was rarely the case after that, but before he ruled as a strong in most cases. In the time of the miners' weakness, there were several times when I encountered someone stronger than myself. By dealing with such a strong person, the miners had never looked down their heads and noticed.

But not now. I keep noticing it strangely. It doesn't even feel unpleasant. KwangcheonMa was utterly unable to understand the complex situation, and Heju who continued to be silent opened his mouth.

[Ask him about the south.]

"What?"

[Ask him if he's ever been south. And what happened in the south.]

Lee Sung-min said the same thing and asked the miners. The miner opens his eyes in surprise and nods his head.

“South... impressive place. ”

“What happened to you down south? ”

“… Hmm. ”

The miner screams. I didn't want to answer honestly, but I felt strongly that I had to. Eventually, the berserker opened his mouth hesitating.

It was 10 years ago. The miners encounter a huge wall while performing the work. There are many times when a wall is encountered during practice, and the miners have always broken through the wall with their own efforts. But in this case, it didn't work out. After repeated training and frustration, Guangzhen set out for a relaxing journey.

“As I followed the trail, I reached the southern shore. I saw the hot sun, the dense forests, the desert... a lot of things. Then I made a connection with a tribe in the jungle. They were odd. None of them seemed to be an easy match. None of the disciples in Gufilbang seemed stronger than the young warriors of that tribe, and the older warriors were the leaders of Gufilbang. ”

I frowned at the eye of the miner who said that.

“The reason the throne became interested in their tribe was that the warriors of the tribe did not learn proper shamanism, even though they were so skilled. It's a pity that we have a fateful relationship teaching tribal warriors some of the stardom in the throne. And in return for delivering the shameless, they taught the throne the elixir of the tribe and how to breathe. ”

That's it!

Heju shouts.

[In the south is the place where this elderly man used to give his name. I heard some tribes in the south were worshipping this old man, so I guess there was still a way to deal with my strength and might.]

The voices of the pretentious voice spoke like that were divine.

“What is that breathing technique? ”

“At first, I thought it was a form of internal cardiac justice, but it wasn't. I couldn't build my own internal affairs. But I got a lot of help for comforting the mind. Through his breathing, he absorbed the elixir of their tribe and made great progress on their strength. And I managed to break through the barrier. ”

He sighed for a long time as he said so.

“I thought that crossing the wall would reach the transcendence… but transcendence was much farther than the throne thought. We may be close, but we're not even close to transcendence yet. I left the south and continued my work as a shaman... I got into coin mouths because I was too greedy. ”

[Idiot.]

Hearing what the miners have to say, Heju is dying.

[Breathing and whatever, force is not something that humans can easily control. The coin horse he suffered was a reactionary force used by Humans. I'm surprised you've had enough photopathy. Normally, I'd explode or turn into a freak.]

Heju mumbled so much and spoke to Lee Sung-min.

[Learn that breathing technique. Once you learn that, you'll be able to use your strength while maintaining your humanity.]

‘... Is it really necessary? ’

[You were the one who longed for power. The choice is always yours. But I'll tell you one thing. In your body now, it will take you decades, but not decades, and hundreds of years, to reach the little horse you want to reach.]

‘I'm growing. ’

I could say that for sure. In the fight against the miners, Lee Sung-min did not use magic. Even with Haist and Strength, it might have been easier to lead the fight against the Berserkers, but Lee did not intentionally use both magic. It was to force me to realize the depth through the death penalty. In fact, what Lee gained was not only the height of the mind that preceded him, but the fact that he followed the body later, regardless of the case, it turned out as he wished.

[It's too dangerous. There is no guarantee that you will gain a good life span over and over again.]

‘Force is just as dangerous. ’

[Son of a bitch. You insist that you won't eat the good stuff if you push it in to feed it. You son of a bitch. Why don't you understand this old man is telling you to like him?]

Heju, who had not heard, was frustrated and uttered a curse. Lee Sung-min was troubled by the idleness and thought. It is true that I am greedy for the power of force. That destructive power will make the body of the isomer stronger, and if so, it will be easier to spread the freedom reached in the spirit world in the flesh.

‘It was shallow again. ’

Just before the blood gust. Lee Sung-min's spear entered shallower than he thought. If he had stretched out with Hayes at that moment, he would have been able to penetrate his body before the lightning storm. But even that decision was too late, and Lee Sung-min didn't like it.

It was frustrating. It was frustrating that his body couldn't do as much as he expected. The reality is that step-by-step approaches do not guarantee that you will be able to acquire the status of the spiritual world. It took 2100 years, but there is no guarantee that you will acquire the status of the spiritual world as quickly as you have experienced it.

“… that breathing technique. Can you tell me? ”

“Impossible.”

The miner frowns and replies.

“When I received the respiration and elixir from that tribe. We can't help but take the elixir because we swore we would never teach anyone else in the case of breathing. It's not a verbal promise, but a promise of promise, so I can never break it. ”

[You're bothering me.]

Hungry grumbles.

“Decree?”

“It's one of the spells used by the southern shamans. It is impossible to break a promise made by the Word. No matter how powerful the throne is, you can't break it unless you give it your heart. ”

[It is similar to the oath of Mana by the wizards. If you make a promise and give a heart with the help of a shaman, your heart will explode when you break it.]

“Where is the southern tribe? ”

“No matter how good the context is, you can't remember where the tribes wandered off to in the jungle. ”

It was an outrageous answer. I wanted to try my best, but I couldn't learn to breathe using force from Gwangcheon Horse, so it was natural for me to lose my edge.

[Let's head south.]

However, Heju was rather excited and said that.

[I promised you in the first place. If you take this old man out, I'll give you the treasure he collected. It's a good thing it's in the south, too.]

But we don't know where. ’

[You're an idiot. Why don't you take that wretch to the guide?]

"What?"

[Tell him you'll teach him the cure for photopathy.]

Heju laughs and says.

[His photophobia is a reaction using force, and he's been chasing this old man all this way. When this old man was sealed in the sleeping forest, the rabble of that rabble would have often faded, but when I left the forest with you and came north, it would not have been so violent.]

It's true. The photophobia was originally slaughtered and destroyed everything around it with each slaughter, but as he stepped out of the sleeping forest, the photophobia became violent. Instead, the forces of the Scarecrow carried by the miners originally found the owner, Juju, and began to move the miners' bodies. The reason why the miners lost their minds for months and came to the north was because Heju and Lee Seong-min stopped at the dungeon and came to the north, and the miners moved together from afar.

“I'll show you how to cure photopathy. Come with me south. ”

“What?"

Lee Sung-min's eyes opened wide. You're going to teach me the cure for photopathy you've been carrying for a long time! In fact, I didn't like the idea of disobeying the words of Lee Sung-min.

“How can you treat my photopathy? ”

“Well…”

Lee Sung-min's words were blurred because he had nothing to say. Then Heju replied in his head.

[Roughly. There will be no photophobia as long as I'm with this old man anyway.]

“… for starters… you can recite the mantra of Dessert Saramu a hundred times every day… and then greet me for breakfast and dinner. ”

I put a spell on it roughly, and the reason I put a condition is because I just wanted to smash the miners who were fighting suddenly.

“A dodo saramoo. I don't know what it is, but it's a magical resonance... What the hell? Why do I have to be bullied? ”

“Don't want to believe it. ”

“Mmmm!”

Lee Sung-min said as if he was a pear. I couldn't believe it at all, but I wonder why. In his mind, he believed the words of Lee Sung-min.

“I see.”

“Then let's go first. ”

Immediately after he answered, Lee Sung-min slapped him on the cheek. The miner's head twitches with a shrill sound.

“Unh!”

No matter how great the miners were, the scoundrel smacked them in the face was enough to surprise the miners.

“Proclaim the spell. ”

Before the miners came to their senses, Lee Seong-min shot at them quickly. The miner grasps the flayed cheek with his hand and grips its teeth, then begins to chant.

“A shellfish... a shellfish...”

Lee Sung-min swallowed a smile as he listened to the sound of the spell.
