Possessing Nothing

< Jero-1 >

The Black Dog was the only one who knew about the death of the Ghost and the Recruiter. Both bodies will be dumped in these woods, and monsters and beasts will eat, remove, or rot. The tax collector doesn't know, but he won't work so hard on collecting the bodies in Jegal-sega. This matter is already over between the beastmaster, the Black Dragon Strait, and the Emperor.

Unaware of this, Lee Sung-min's group leaves the forest guided by evil spirits. The forest that deliberately interfered with the remnants of terror by obstructing the way of Lee Sung-min was no longer obstructing him.

“I don't know what you're doing. ”

Aladoor speaks. He trembled as he glanced at the demons guiding him.

“There are only a few high-quality shamans who deal with evil spirits. It's absurd to deal with evil spirits that are still here, even if you go towards dark magic. Did you know?”

“I don't know. I'm not a black wizard. ”

That's how Sung-min answered. Those demons died in this forest, and they were possessed by the power of the forest. It is not because Lee Sung-min subjugated them, but because Heju, who is intertwined with their source, is connected to Lee Sung-min and his spirit. In other words, it is only possible for Lee Sung-min to receive the help of evil spirits in this forest.

‘It doesn't matter.’

I can only use it comfortably in this forest, but what's the point of going out into the forest to deal with evil spirits? Lee Sung-min is neither a shaman nor a wizard. I don't regret that I can't handle evil spirits because I don't even deserve directionality of use.

“Khh... If those idiots who say they'll deal with demons and eat and sleep in the graveyard, they'll get sick to their stomach. You're good with no balls, good with character, good with demons! You think there could be this perfect person in the world? Aigoo, that's not fair. ”

Aladur whispers with thick lips. Hearing that, Rubia giggles and even the miners nod their heads in empathy. I don't know about toughness, but it was a great talent to be a beginner at the age of 25.

“I won't leave without you, so shut up. ”

“Abu. I mean it. ”

Aladoor grunts. He puts them in because he needs them, but after a day with Aladoor, that unstoppable pout feels fierce. Rubia and the miner seem surprisingly compatible with Aladur. I guess I missed the conversation because Lee Sung-min didn't have a lot of words.

“You're going to the senior class? Are you crazy?”

When I asked him where he was going, Aladur shouted at the school.

“Son of a bitch, I barely got on board and it's headed for the dead again. Why the hell do you want to go to the senior class? ”

“No, not necessarily. It's just that way. ”

Lee added that he looked at Aladoor twisting like he was seizing. Only after hearing that did Aladur look a little relieved. Rubia, who was watching the meat cooked on the fire, asked Aladur.

“What's wrong with you? I know it's a monster city.But it's not necessarily a dangerous place, right? ”

Rubia was right. The Adult Herd is a city where monsters roam, but it is not unconditionally dangerous. In the beginning, he was a famous tourist city in the southern region, and wealthy nobles used to pay expensive money to hire escorts and come to tours as senior citizens.

A monstrosity born with fear as a mother is natural to man. However, not all monsters hunt humans indiscriminately and backwards. It's no different from a vampire, who stocks man. The higher the scale, the stronger the rationality and control the appetite for cannibalism. People are like Humans.Just because people eat pigs doesn't mean they hunt pigs in front of their eyes and eat them right away.

“Demibeast Lady. The group of adults that you know is the group of adults who used to be good, and not the group of adults who are now at all. ”

Aladur shakes his hand and says,

“Oh, of course. You're a pretty decent city for a bunch of tourists who come here for no reason. It's great to see a white walker night market every night, and it's fun to watch a freak play or a circus. But, miss. Think about it. A city where all those monsters live, what do they eat? ”

“... A monster doesn't just eat human beings, right? ”

“That's right. Monsters don't just eat people. But there are monsters that need to eat human beings. In other words... yes. Just like Gumiho.”

Aladur shudders. Gumiho. At that point, Lee Sung-min looked up at Aladur, looking at the fire.

“The owner of the group changed a few years ago. It is the Gumiho who has the name Yanara that is dominating the senior group now. ”

“Are you saying the gumiho can only eat human? ”

“There's a lot of reliance. There are different kinds of gumihos... Jana is a gumiho who needs to eat human flesh. He's missing the liver, to be exact. ”

“Liver?”

Lee Sung-min muttered. The legend about the Gumiho was also famous in the modern era where he lived before he came to Eria. Many areas of Korea, Japan, and China have heard stories about the Gumiho. Especially in Korea, where Lee Sung-min lived, gumiho is said to be a fox monster who loses his liver.

“It's not just Gumiho. There are many monsters that rely on Humankind... Humankind for them is constantly being supplied to them. The enemy who once ruled a group of elders was not particularly hostile to Humans. But Jana was different. The number of missing persons has increased since Yana began dominating the senior group. ”

Aladur grumbles, trembling.

“I'd like to break up with the nobleman before I arrive at the senior group, if possible. ”

“What are you so afraid of? They say there are more missing persons, but not everyone disappears from a group of adults. It's not like Yana made an explicit hostile move against Humans. ”

“It's because I've been fucked up a lot in my life with such loose thoughts. I hope we get out of this forest soon. ”

Aladoor lets out his voice and lays down his naked body.

*

When Lee Sung-min tries to leave the Forest of Temptation. Under the escort of the sage, Ji Ho-yeon headed for the Sa 'jul master, arrived in a large forest.

“This place...? ”

Ji Ho-yeon got off the wagon under the support of safflower. I asked him how many times he was on his way, but he didn't tell me where he was going. Ji Ho-yeon blinked her helpless eyes and looked at the forest. Soon, Wiji Hoenn was surprised.

‘Oh my God...’

The forest was full of natural guardians. It was natural to have so many natural guardians in a dense forest, but it was not a level that there were so many natural guardians in this forest. Whenever you breathe, the Dark Natural Keeper is swallowed. This was an enormous thing to mock common sense.

“It's a guest, sir! ”

“Who is it?”

“It's a girl!”

“Beautiful, isn't she? You're not an Elf, are you? ”

“Idiot, don't you know you have small ears? ”

“You're even dumber than I thought you were! ”

A loud voice approaches. He looked at the direction of the sound. A boy and a girl about the size of the palm of their hand were laughing bitterly. He opened his eyes wide, looking at the flapping wings behind their backs.

“You've never seen an elf before? ”

It was a voice I had heard before.

The tetrarch was wearing a mask just as he saw himself. The white mask covers half of this face, without drawing anything. Wijiho-yeon's expression hardened as she looked at the opening of the primitive, half-masked side.

“Not really. Fairies are rare. If it's not here, I can see some in Elf Forest... Well, I've never been to Elf Forest before. ”

“Elven Forest? I don't know.”

“Runju always talks about things we don't know. All we know is this forest. ”

“Juju, Juju! Why are you wearing that ugly mask? Give me a cuter mask! ”

As the tetrarch appears, the little elves smile and wander around him. Some brave fairies climbed on top of the tetrarchist's head and tapped his head. They climbed onto his shoulders and grabbed his ear.

“Oh, stop, stop! I tried to show magnificence, but they won't help me...! ”

“What is majesty? ”

“Idiot, I'm talking about pretending to be cool. ”

“Are you pretending to be magnificent? Not good for a Sovereign. ”

The fairies chuckle. The tetrarch pushes the charming fairy away with his bare hands, but changes the mask to suit the fairy's needs. Ji Ho-yeon lost her words when she saw a poacher in a colorful animal mask. The existence of the fairy was also embarrassing, but I had to feel a strange feeling when I saw the Transcendent Master suffering from the fairies at the top of the podium.

“You ruined my first impression. ”

He grumbled.

“Any discomfort on your way here? I tried to tell the safflower. Don't make me feel uncomfortable. ”

“... There was no discomfort. ”

“Then that's a relief. Come this way. It's a bit far, but I don't want to take the wagon into these woods. It's just a feeling, actually. This forest is untouched by Humans. I just don't want to bring anything artificial like a wagon. ”

The tetrarch chuckles. In fact, the wagon that burned W. Hoenn did not enter the forest, but stopped at the entrance.

“Otherwise, why? Is it hard to walk? If you don't mind, I can carry you. If your pride allows it. ”

“I don't need it.”

Ji Ho-yeon said in a cool voice. That's why the owner laughs again.

“Even with that kid on your back, you don't want to be supported by the throne? ”

“Like you said. This is just a matter of my mood. ”

“Then I have no choice but to understand. But keeping up with your slow pace is annoying and annoying. So here's what I'm gonna do. ”

The tetrarch raises his hand. Then, Ji Ho-yeon's body came to life. He did not resist. I didn't have the strength to do that, but it was hard as well as Wijihoen to lead my immovable body.

“You're weak.”

The private stockholder murmured.

“I feel pretty good. ”

“I'm not amused. ”

“That's how you feel. ”

That's how the tetrarch began to walk through the forest. The fairies follow the priesthood. The fairies approached Wei Ji Ho-yeon as she was floating in the air, saying things like that, but she didn't answer.

“A good forest to live in. ”

The tetrarch opened his mouth.

“Fairies bother me, though. Still, it's better to deal with fairies than with Humans. It is not that fairies do not lie, but fairy lies are mere ‘pranks’ that are indistinguishable from good and evil. That's why the context is fairies rather than humans. ”

“... What are you talking about? ”

“It explains why the chapter is in these woods. ”

“I... thought you were paralyzed. He's dying of illness, or he's got an incurable wound. ”

“Haha! That's what it looks like. But it's not like that. The point is, she's perfectly healthy. I've lived long enough, but I have no idea when I'm going to die. The main point is in this forest, just because this forest is good. ”

“Clearly. The natural keepers of this forest are amazing. It builds internal air just by breathing deeply. ”

“You know that. If you go through transcendence, you won't be so courted by the many and the few in the air. But the more the merrier. The reason this forest has so many natural guardians is because it is so pristine. There's a fairy queen in these woods. ”

“… Fairy Queen? ”

“Yes. Perhaps you can meet him. ”

The quadriplegic steps stopped. His arrival was in a small log cabin.

“… you said you didn't want to leave anything artificial behind? ”

“Huh? Right. What, you don't like the way he talks about building houses? That's why the owner can't sleep on the floor. ”

The poacher smiled and replied.

“I brought him to the front of the house, but you decide whether or not you want to live there. Of course, if you live in that house, you live with the throne. ”

“No.”

“Then be homeless. The throne protects you, but it does nothing for you. The whole point of the throne was to protect you, because I liked that deadbeat kid, not you. The noble spirit? If it had not acted on you, the throne would not have cared whether you were taken to heaven or not. ”

The tetrarch said so, putting down Ji Ho-yeon. While staggering, Ji Ho-yeon stared at the anarchist's face.

“... you won't do anything to me? ”

“What? Were you expecting the script to do something for you? Would you like to be a student of the throne? ”

“No.”

“Then what? Do you want me to treat you like your father? Not a lover. The main thing is, I don't like little girls. ”

“Don't sound so awful. ”

“I mean it. If you want to die like this, I'll give you a meal. Then... live well. I don't know when the little deadbeat will be back. For at least half a year, you're supposed to be in these woods. I guess it's okay to think you're in a home. This forest has good air. ”

The tetrarch said so and turned around.

“Let me tell you something. Ignore the throne, just as the throne does not care about you. The throne is merciful... but if you annoy the throne... I don't really know what a pissed off chapter is going to do. ”

The tetrarch leaves with the fairies. Wijiho-yeon sat in a crumbling chair, looking at the back of a primitive who was ripping off her hair by fairies.

‘Half a year. ’

She bit her lower lip. I was not used to being treated like this for the first time, but it didn't matter. I just felt disgusted by my weakened body. Ji Ho-yeon closed her eyes, exhaling. She carefully begins to operate the Thousand Horsemen. The weather breakfasts were painful, but W. Hoyen did not stop the hammering.

This forest is full of natural guardians.

I couldn't move my body properly, but I was thinking of taking as much natural guardian as I could while I was in these woods.
