Possessing Nothing

[222] Ji Ho-yeon (4)

[Knock it off.]

Shut up. ’

Heju teased, and Lee Sung-min returned to the hut of Wiji Hoenn with the five masks he received from the tetrarch.

Maybe it didn't take so long.

Wijiho-yeon was standing among the buds of the strongest flower, just like when Lee Lee last saw her.

Ji Ho-yeon, who was concentrating with her eyes closed, did not ask Lee Sung-min any questions.

It's not like you haven't noticed that you're back, but you don't have enough time to talk because you're immersed and focused.

Seongmin also sat down not far from Wijihoyeon. He looks down at the mask in his hand.

Each mask had a different shape, but to be honest, it wasn't that cool. Lee Sung-min frowned as he lifted the rabbit-shaped mask.

"What is this? ’

[The fairies seem to like it.]

It was just as Hesitant said. The fairies were not approaching because of Wijihoen, but they were dropping their shoulders at a distance, looking at the mask Lee Sung-min was holding.

[Look at the glabella.]

Heju notices something and talks. Lee Sung-min stared at the glare of the rabbit mask. There was a small number of 1 written.

‘I see what it is. ’

Lee saw the other five masks. Rabbit, fox, deer, wolf, bear. Each of the other masks had a number written on their glances, looking at the face of the animal ridiculously.

Rabbit 1, bear 5. It seemed to be an order to change masks.

[Try it.]

Heju was going to try it without saying so.

Lee Sung-min tried using the mask of the rabbit written as 1. As soon as I wrote it, I reacted. I feel like the disconnect is stiffening. I tried pulling the air out once, but it was not as fast as before.

However, it was not very uncomfortable. It's just a slight slowdown.

Try changing the mask in order. Whenever the mask changes, the internal air suppression becomes stronger. When you wear the third deer mask, your internal air moves much slower than you thought. Of course, the movements of the masked hands were also slow.

It is not easy. Although it is said to be repetitive, the difficulty of performing a debridement while restraining internal air was very high. Lee was confident that this could greatly increase the achievement of the Self-Substantiation with the addition of Black Mine Blossoms.

I had to constantly operate the autonomous ball, and I had to concentrate on the phrase of the Heilang Incense that creates explosive velocity. The unfamiliar is on the Heimlich side, and no satisfactory velocity is created for barrels that contain internal air.

[Surprising thing about masks.]

Heju mutters.

[That mask is forcibly restraining your body by simply using it. You're not out of your league. He's one of the most powerful men in the world. It is surprising that you can suppress internal airspace simply by wearing a mask.]

‘Definitely.’

Lee Sung-min tried on the bear mask, the last mask. With the bear's mask on, the inner aircraft remained motionless no matter how hard it used the dragon.

The same was true of the force. It was all you could use on your face. It completely suppresses the innards of the transcendent master.

If we find a way, not only can we do it, but we can use it for many other things.

[I don't think it's magical. This...... is it. Was it made by the fairy queen? It's even weirder when you think like that.]

Heju grins.

[So is the Queen of Spirits, but not the Queen of Fairies. Such beings are creatures that are very different from humans. They're the only ones who can make a difference in the world just by revealing their existence. That's why they don't want to get involved in the world.]

‘The Queen of Spirits came to save Envirus. ’

[I don't know all the details. Didn't you hear what the Queen of the Elves said? The Spirit Queen should never have come into this world. But then, he went to great lengths to save a wizard named Envirus.]

Listening to Hesitation, Lee Sung-min touched the mask without saying a word.

[It's called Fairy Forest. This old man has only heard the stories. He has no idea where the Elf Forest is. In fact, this forest is situated in a gap in the forest by the power of the Fairy Queen. How did the tetrarch know about this forest? And why would the Queen of the Elves do that to a master of horses?]

The relationship between the two is clearly suspicious. The fairy queen's personality is unparalleled, but it is clear that she is friendly to the tetrarch.

I don't doubt the owner. Rather, the doubters are the fairy queen's side.

Lee Sung-min hasn't forgotten what Osla said to herself the last time.

‘Maybe I am an apostle of the Apostle of the Apocalypse. ’

I didn't want to swing that thought right away. But I think about what Osla said.

I told you I was friendly. At that time, the situation was also a situation, and I didn't like it because my head was complicated with various thoughts.

If you think about it now. Osla's words are like a blank check.

She is the Queen of all fairies and is the Queen of fairies, who is transcendent in a true sense different from humans.

I don't know what the limits of what she called "favorable" were, but I thought it might be good to talk about it the next time I met Osla.

[You're not a fool.]

Heju smiles gladly. Not right now, of course. First of all, I was going to continue with what the tetrarch said.

It was only around nightfall that Wijihoyen moved. She sits on the floor, approaching Lee Sung-min practicing her sword, and squats in front of him.

“How's the caterer? ”

“I got my ass kicked. ”

“…… What do you mean by that? ”

“I shouldn't have said that. ”

“The mask. Did the owner give it to you? ”

“Yes.”

Lee Sung-min gave the mask to Wei Ji Ho-yeon while answering. Ji Ho-yeon in a mask hesitated, startled.

“…… the internal air isn't moving. ”

“Master Mask...... I heard this mask is also worn by a master. ”

“Really?"

In Seongmin's answer, Ji Ho-yeon took off the mask she was wearing with a chuckle. She mutters with a bitter expression.

“With this mask on, you defeated me in seven seconds. ”

His expression was not good, but his voice did not sag.

Rather, he seemed motivated by the fact that the tetrarch was suppressing his power. Ji Ho-yeon nodded her head and got up.

“I won't do it today. ”

“What?"

“The crossroads. ”

Ji Ho-yeon uttered in her natural voice, and Lee Sung-min felt like throwing up even though he didn't eat anything.

“I didn't mean to. ”

“If you're serious, that's a little harsh. ”

As Lee Lee hurriedly replied, Wijiho-yeon curled her eyes.

Lee didn't react because he didn't know the truth of W. Ho-yeon.

Wijiho-yeon smiled and woke up, looking at Lee Sung-min.

“Still, I mean it. I won't do it today. I wanted to see you scream that you wanted to. ”

“... I thought you said it hurt? ”

“Apart from being sick. There was such a thing as satisfaction. But I'm not in the mood today. I feel like I'm wasting my time because of the curse. I don't want to be left behind by you. ”

“It'll be far away again soon. ”

“Then you'll have to come after me again. ”

Wijiho-yeon smiled and said. It's true. He will continue to be strong.

And Seong-min is slower than she's getting stronger, maybe...... even slower. He didn't want to be left behind, so he thought about doing everything he could.

Since then, Ji Ho-yeon and Seong-min did not have many conversations with each other even though they were in the same forest and in the same place.

Ji Ho-yeon sold out on her newly created bureaucracy, and Lee Sung-min sold out on the execution of the quarantine, as the tetrarch had ordered.

‘That's weird.'

Over and over again, Lee Sung-min was feeling intense glamour. It's faster to become accustomed to the sword than I thought.

He knew his talents and limitations well. It's the first time I've ever performed it, and it's deformed the zygomatic foramen, but in fact, it's a completely different kind of mason.

‘Progress is fast. ’

It was only a week ago. The speed of the defective blade was unbelievably fast compared to the first time.

The same was true of Zixiang Dynasty's achievements. Particularly, the addition of the gradient of the Heilang Incense was so natural that he no longer had to be conscious.

Lee Sung-min was embarrassed by the rapid advancement more than he expected.

[I think it's the heart.]

Heju, who had been looking at Lee Sung-min's body for a week, gave his own answer.

[The heart of your monster has evolved your body every time you are in crisis. Perhaps your lacking talents have improved through that repeated evolution.]

Of course, I wasn't sure. It was ambiguous to know that Heju knew that it was too soon to call it heart thanks.

[Or maybe not because of the heart, but simply because of you, has evolved more than when you were initially incompetent. In fact, I think this is more right than the heart. I'm still on the verge of transcendence, but I think I was much less of a fool when I first learned shameless arts. You'll have more experience getting to this point.]

It was a good thing that Lee Sung-min didn't know exactly which side was right, but he was faster at learning about Black Lightning than he expected.

Of course, even though Lee Sung-min's talent improved, it did not compare with Wei Ji Ho-yeon.

A week. We spent the same amount of time with each other, sold out on new UAVs.

However, the rate of growth was astonishing to Lee Sung-min.

Disgusting genius.

A lot of people saw W. Hoenn and he was feeling frustrated.

“Try a defensive sword. ”

Lee Sung-min, who had been summoned to the priesthood, took out five masks in front of his hut.

The tetrarch stood behind him and asked him to change his sword, and he quickly moved his hand without hesitation. The rabbit's mask was written first.

“Do they go in order? ”

“Go ahead.”

Lee Sung-min's hand continued to move. The mask that Lee Sung-min is wearing changes without sound.

From rabbit to bear. Seeing it through, the tetrarch opens his mouth.

“Don't do it in order. Mix it up. I'm not giving you an order. ”

Even though he said that, he continued to change his body without difficulty. Rabbit becomes bear, bear becomes fox, fox to wolf, wolf to rabbit.

As with anomalies, internal control becomes entertainment. It is much more difficult to put the anomaly in order than to do it in order.

“The script has misjudged you. ”

The tetrarch raises his hand, muttering like that. Lee Sung-min's body stopped.

“I expected at least a month to reach a satisfactory level. I never thought I'd make it this far in a week. ”

“…… You don't like it? ”

Lee Sung-min asked me just in case. It's because I was offended by what the tetrarch said, "I like evil." The tetrarch smiled at Lee Sung-min's question.

“No, it's not that I don't like it. It's better than I thought, but it's not genius. Rather, I think you're human. I've been practicing in the spiritual world for 2100 years, but I've done something so far, no matter how lacking my natural talent. ”

The tetrarch nodded his head.

“Putting on an internal restraining mask and asking you to practice castration have two meanings. One is to extract the best efficiency with inhibited internal air, so that he can familiarize himself with the borehole and the Heimlich. You know this. ”

“Yes.”

“The other is because of the Dragon Heart that you ate. ”

The expression of Lee Sung-min was stiff.

“You eat Dragon Hearts and unconsciously use Dragon Refresher. But there's nothing else. ”

“Yes.”

“I thought the mask would control the forces and internal forces at your disposal, and if I continued, I could draw out the magical powers of the Dragon Hearts that are melted by your own flesh. It's too bad we can't put the power of that metaphor to sleep in our bodies. ”

The tetrarch says so, and tucks his hand inside his sleeve. The new thing that the tetrarch took out was a mask with the face of a distorted ghost.

“It must have been hard to draw out the Dragonheart's magic in a week. Stay in this mask. ”

“Was that also made by the Fairy Queen? ”

“You know better. ”

In Seong-min's question, the shaman nodded his head with a bloody smile. Sung-min carefully asked after receiving the mask given to him by the tetrarch.

“What is the relationship between you and the Queen of the Fairies? ”

You're not gonna get spanked for asking this. Lee Sung-min was worried like that.
