Possessing Nothing

“… W-wait… ”

It was before the wagon even left the senior group.

Until then, the lips of the Mine Thousand Horses that had been closed were opened.

Lee Sung-min, who was sitting in the carriage seat, looked back in horror.

Frau, who was looking after the condition of the miners, was also surprised.

“Don't say it. ”

Frau warned you. The maelstrom is burning and the body is already near death.

I hold on to Frau's spells, but they are not complete either.

Lee Sung-min moved from the carriage seat to the luggage compartment. He lies on the ground and looks down at the lightning horse, exhaling a thin breath.

“…… Sir. ”

“P-please give it to me. ”

The miners spoke with difficulty. No hair, no skin. Everything burns. Even in that state, the mineral horse is still alive.

Tell me to let you go. Lee Sung-min shrugged his shoulders knowing what that word meant.

He reaches out his trembling hand and grabs the miner's wrist.

“Senior…. ”

The miners can no longer speak.

Lee Seong-min chewed his lips. I look down. There were all kinds of thoughts in my head.

If you go to the Heurion Mountains and meet a magician, you might be able to save the Mine Thousand Horses.

He said he wasn't sure about Frau, but that was all he could try in the current situation.

Erebrisa has already brokered senior synagogues and therapists to show the condition of the miners, but they all said it was impossible to save the miners. It is impossible to regenerate after all of life has been burned.

“We've lived long enough. ”

The trembling voice breaks. However, it sounded like the voice did not break at all for Lee Sung-min, but it was straight forward.

“There's not much sense in living. I took revenge... Yes. I think I've lived a pretty good life. ”

“Sir.”

“Let me go.”

I couldn't see his face. Lee Sung-min thought the miners were laughing.

“Life as we know it. I'm hoping for the end... so... please respect me. ”

Lee closed his eyes.

I thought you were a coward. Respect it because it's your life.

There was nothing for Lee Sung-min to argue about. But I wanted to say something.

Lee Sung-min opened his mouth. But in the end, there was nothing he could say. After a little silence, Lee Sung-min barely spoke.

“…… Sorry I'm late…… ”

“It's okay. Even if you were here in the first place, this is how you would have done it....... I'm afraid I have nothing to tell you. ”

You hear the grin of the miners.

I have a heavy head. His barely opened eyes, his gaze was shaking.

He clenched his fist tightly. The fingernails pierce through the skin and cause blood to flow.

“The Hemophilus Mask.”

The miner told me.

“It's all part of the mission, free and clear. It may not be right for you using spear...... but don't forget. The throne was not transcendent...... but one day, you will be transcendent. Don't forget the hemocytoplasty when you do. ”

“I… won't forget." ”

“That's enough. ”

The breath of the mineral commander decreases.

“Do you know the name of the script? ”

“…… a wall shield. ”

“I've been called" The Lightning Horse "more than that. Hehe... Thinking about it now, it wasn't a good sign for a fountain. No way. Haha...! ”

The miner pours out a dry smile.

“I'm worried about Rubia. If you're willing to do the old man a favor, someday...... can you make sure he's okay? ”

“Of course... … I will. ”

“Yes... I'm relieved to hear that answer. This is good. This is good. The headline is…… I. No regrets. ”

That's a lie.

I was the one who knew it the best.

A life without regret. There is no such life.

No matter how well you live, you will regret it before you die. The Sovereign Union must have it.

I wanted to hold it to the transcendence. I wanted to reach a high point that I could not reach as an unmanned person.

But the wall of reality was much higher than the miners thought. This is it.

I did not break through the transcendental walls, and I did not gain enlightenment. Dying like that was a big fool for the miners, but he didn't want to get caught up in it.

It was because I wasn't sure. Even if you come back to life. He was not confident that he would be able to do the work without force again and reach the transcendence.

That's why I wanted to give up. That will be all. I'm done here. Guangcheon Horse closed his eyes quietly.

“Burn the body. So that every bone burns... like that. Leave the bone powder alone. So you can fly anywhere. ”

“Senior…. ”

“You're not like me. ”

The miner mutters. It's too small to hear the ears of Lee Sung-min.

“Sir.”

Lee Sung-min called out to the miners in a hurry. The answer never came back.

Shallow breathing stops. Soon I stopped breathing completely.

Lee Sung-min stared at the mineral horse with a blank face.

Frau, sitting next to him, scratches his back head as he makes a complicated face.

“…… Done? ”

Lee said that without even knowing it. Is this the end?

Is this death? Lee Seong-min searched the mineral veins. Nothing.

The death of a relative was stranger to the person who came back from the death. Lee Sung-min's shoulders tremble.

Lee looked at the face of the miner. I can't see my burnt face, my eyes. I felt like I was upside down.

Lee Sung-min chewed his lower lip to swallow vomit.

If only someone had killed the miners. I wish the irony of fighting the miners hadn't died. It might have been a little easier if it were.

If so, it would have been for revenge. However, the speculation to be avenged died at the hands of the miners.

There is nowhere to go to ease the emotions that are piled up with the death of the miners.

It was shaking Lee Sung-min. I have a feeling that there is no place to go. It is not the first time I have seen death.

He had died, he had seen the deaths of others, and he had killed many others.

But what Lee is looking at right now is death. The death of her friend was shaking her emotions roughly. We only traveled together for a year, but Guangcheon Ma was Lee's companion.

“...... We don't have to go to the Hughson Mountains. ”

Frau mutters. She thinks it's a relief.

The magic of the Hushan Mountains is volatile. Jana was lucky to get what she wanted from a witch, but if Lee Sung-min had met a witch...

It was possible that the magician would easily give her what she wanted. It might be better to die this clean now. Of course, Frau did not pass such thoughts on to Lee Sung-min.

“How long are you going to hold it? ”

“…… wait a minute. ”

“Holding it like that doesn't bring the dead back. We have to let him go.”

With a cold word from Frau, Lee Sung-min raised her head.

A fierce gaze is upon Frau. Frau smiled as he looked at the eyes of that Lee Sung-min.

“Your eyes are killing me right now. You better control your emotions. Your body is close to the beast, and your mind is filled with a urethra. And a man named Yoseong enjoys violence. If you behave like a beast, your toughness will be swallowed by Yoseong. ”

Frau's warning was true.

Lee Sung-min also knew that, so he chewed his lower lip. Frau is right.

It was also thanks to Frau that the miners were able to preach the last words like that.

“…… Sorry. ”

Lee Seong-min bowed her head.

The funeral took place quietly. There was no yada, there was no rubia.

It was Frau who gave the funeral.

Like the last will and testament, the body of the miner was burned. Lee Sung-min stared blankly at Frau's blazing corpse.

The corpse soon became bones, and the bones turned to white powder again. A furious wind blows out the flames and scatters ashes and bone dust from afar.

It's over.

Lee Seong-min stood tall and looked at all of them. It's more hollow than old. Lee looked around without knowing it.

There is no one.

No one, no rubia, no minerals.

The moment he realized it, he sat down. I used to be used to being alone, but not now.

It was shaking the mind of Lee Sung-min that he had become alone again.

The hardness of the mind that was impenetrable was as fragile as tofu now.

[Don't be so depressed.]

Heju mutters. He doesn't seem too comfortable either. Burning ashes and bone powder. Something faint rises from the flames that were left on the floor.

It floats around the fire and flows to Lee Sung-min. The power of the aura that the miners had has returned to the rational mind. Lee Sung-min squeezed his chest.

[But he was avenged and died. I'm sure you'll be pleased with that. Now that he's satisfied himself and died, there's no reason for you to be depressed.]

‘…… it doesn't work like that. ’

That's why humans are weak.]

After the funeral, Frau approached Lee Sung-min.

“Do you intend to stay in the elderly? ”

“…… No. ”

Lee Sung-min shook his head horizontally from side to side.

“There's no more... reason to stay here." I'm leaving. ”

I don't think there's any reason to wait for Yana to return. All business in the elderly is over.

There was no reason to stay here anymore. After that, Lee looked down at his bloodied hands.

There's still business to be had in the south. An authority that cursed Wijihoen. That authority hides itself in the Elven Forest not far from the elderly.

“Really? Then maybe today's the last time I'll see you." Actually, I don't think so. ”

Frau shakes his head with a bloody smile.

“Your destiny is very strong. Maybe... I was caught up in your destiny, too. Maybe I'll see you again someday. I don't know if it's a good meeting or a bad meeting. ”

Frau mutters and turns away. Lee Sung-min stared at the back of Frau who was getting away without even saying goodbye.

After looking at Frau's back for a moment, Lee Seong-min still saw the fire that remained on the floor.

Should I say hello?

It reminds me of the villagers Yana collected. I thought I didn't have to. I don't want to make any more connections In fact, that was an honest feeling.

Lee Seong-min bowed her head as she looked down at the blazing flame.

As he left the group, Lee Seong-min regained her feelings. He calls for Nebbel first. I've taken the Dragon Heart, but I can't feel the change.

Before heading into the Elven Forest, I wanted to know exactly what condition I was in.

“Haha... I... I can't believe it. The human has taken the Dragon Heart? ”

What Neville connected him to was the Blue Horseman who had hoped to buy the Dragon Heart.

He was wearing a blue robe worthy of his name, staring straight at Lee Sung-min's face beyond the passageway that Nevel had opened.

“I can't tell you how unprecedented this is. Maybe if I saw it for myself. ”

The Blue Horse Master said so, looking up and down at Lee Sung-min.

“Stop by the Blue Tower when you get a chance. I think I can give you more definitive advice. ”

It was not just the Blue Horse Rider who said that. Since it was unprecedented for humans to consume the entire Dragon Heart, we couldn't share their opinions.

“This is my personal opinion. ”

After the brokerage, Neville opens his mouth carefully.

“The Dragon Heart is a massive force. Dragons have lived thousands of years and used dragons to practice magic as a free material, and now they don't show themselves in this world… but only a few hundred years ago, dragons were called gods. Of course, such dragons have never been hunted before, but they have never remained intact in the form of dragon hearts, as straight men have been. All dragons are to be slain in the face of death. Destroy your Dragon Hearts first. Even if I succeeded in hunting dragons, it was impossible to obtain an intact Dragon Heart. ”

Nevel says so and swallows.

“To take an intact Dragon Heart, a dragon must be killed before it can kill itself. To do that, you have to have the power to conquer a dragon. ”

[Ahem.]

Hearing Neville's words, Heju frowns.

“Even the fragments of the Dragon Heart were of enormous magical value and possessed enormous power. By the way... you took an intact Dragon Heart, not a fragment. The human body cannot bear him, and no outsider or child can bear the power of the Dragon Heart. If you take it like the elixir anyway, it's natural for your body to burst. ”

“But I didn't explode. ”

“That's why it's unprecedented. And…… this is my personal view. Perhaps the power of the Dragon Heart lies deep within your body. if it hadn't been scattered. ”

It was not scattered. Lee was confident about it. The enormous power of the Dragon Heart must have entered Lee's body.

“Maybe it's a defense mechanism in the flesh. If they were reflected in the flesh like the elixir, they might have judged for themselves that the body would not survive. ”

Neville wasn't sure because it was unprecedented. However, Lee Sung-min took Nevel's words fairly well.

Until now, the Black Heart has evolved its body in front of the crisis faced by Lee Sung-min so that he can survive.

Taking the entire Dragon Heart this time was also a crisis that might explode. Perhaps the Black Heart is suppressing the power of the Dragon Heart so that the rational people can survive.

“I'm sorry for what I said. ”

“No, I'm fine. because it was helpful enough. ”

Lee Seong-min replied, shaking his head.

“Also, I have some additional information I'd like to purchase. ”

“What is it?”

“The Ancient Forest. ”

Lee said in a quiet voice.

“I'd like to know the location of the Elven Forest. ”
