Possessing Nothing

[236] Hedor (2)

In his past life, Scarlet didn't die. As a red steed, she had a reputation before Lee Sung-min died.

But I don't know what's going to happen at this point.

A few months have passed since Lee Sung-min died, and he doesn't know anything about what will happen now.

‘And it doesn't always go the way it used to. ’

It has already been checked several times. A volcanic leader who had never died in his past life died, and his sword was killed by Lee Sung-min.

Even the Saxon that was supposed to die by Wiji Hoyen didn't die. The Blood Celestial Horse also died at the hands of Lee Sung-min.

My life has already changed a lot in the past.

It's because of the existence of Lee Sung-min.

If he had lived the same life as his previous life, he might have lived the same life as his previous life, but he did not live the same life as his previous life.

Maybe what Kim Jong-hyun is doing right now has something to do with Lee Sung-min in the end. It might be a fast living price.

Nonetheless, Lee Sung-min did not ignore the possibility at all. I've already met Kim Jong-hyun several times, and he's here.

“What do you think? ”

Scarlet walks into the cafeteria, tilting his head and asking.

Lee Sung-min put down complex thoughts for a moment and shook his head.

[I was thinking about Kim Jong-hyun.]

I answered with a tone because it might be sensitive.

Of course. Scarlet's eyebrows frown. Wadduk. The knife on the table was destroyed by her grip.

[You son of a bitch. I don't even know what the hell you think you're doing.]

[Do you have any idea what you're after?]

[Yet... nothing is certain. I didn't ask Jonghyun Kim in person, and Kim Jonghyun didn't say anything. I'm guessing a little bit, though. The villagers he killed had nothing in common except their hearts ripped out and their bodies bound together.]

Scarlet kicks his tongue down, placing the dishes that were crushed in the palm of his hand.

[You didn't do that for no reason. Since time immemorial, the heart has been the most blatant and easiest sacrifice for magic or magic.]

[Sacrifice?]

[Yes. Sacrifices for magical or magical rituals. The other black wizards at the Black Horse Tower mentioned the possibility of summoning demons.]

[If you're a demon, are you talking about the Demons?]

[Horse...... It's going to be a little different. I don't really know him that well, either. The Horses are... Demihumans, after all. But the Devil is not the concept of a Demihuman. Well, this is just a guess. However, the number of people Kim Jong-hyun killed and ripped out their hearts is over 5,000. A ritual with that much sacrifice would be terrible.]

Scarlet rubs his head with a complex expression. For now, I can only speculate about everything Kim Jong-hyun does.

I consulted the Black Wizards of the Black Tower, but they weren't sure what Kim Jong-hyun was up to.

By doing so, the magic of human sacrifice produces terrible results without exception.

There, if it is not the dark magic that has been established so far, but the magic that occurs through Grimoire, even its form cannot be determined.

[Before Arbes fell, the Wizard's Guild had two copies of Twin Books. Grimoire and Gries. But the Wizard's Guild had both copies of the book, but they did not interpret them.]

[Why?]

[because it was too dangerous. The magic in those two books, though not fully interpreted, was premature for humans. It was too dangerous, so we didn't want to touch it at all. After Arbes disappeared with Grimor, he got into Gries' interpretation later.]

He didn't know much about the great sorcerers.

However, from the attitude of Scarlet, I could feel how dangerous Grimoire was that Kim Jong-hyun had it.

[Does Scarlet think the subjugation will succeed?]

[Success…… Actually, I don't know. I think we have enough men. Blind men, churches, magical soldiers. I've decided to join the best mercenaries there. I'm joking, but with a force like this, we could catch a dragon.]

At that, Hemingju laughed in Lee Sung-min's head.

You want to kill a dragon? Nonsense. This much will never tear a dragon's wings apart.]

[Is the dragon that strong?]

[I didn't mean to upset them for being a great tribe. All I could see was a silly lizard to this old man.]

[After all, you were subjugated by humans.]

[But still… hmm. Now that I think about it, it's strange. Why was I subdued?]

Lee Sung-min made fun of me, but Huju took it seriously.

When I think about it, it was because I had never really thought about the moment of my death. Like you didn't subconsciously try to remember him.

[Strange. I can't remember... Is it because of the moment of death?]

Heju thought he was strange too. In that world, there was no one who could kill Heju.

Even dragons were weak to the eye of Heju, and it wasn't enough to kill Heo Ju if he was the strongest human or the most persevering.

Then why did I die? Huju recalls what Osla said.

It was an awkward death in many ways.

[If this amount of troops are gathered, you should subdue them with courtesy. Isn't that right?]

[Do you think it might be dangerous?]

[I am. Kim Jong-hyun, he doesn't know what he's getting himself into. I don't want to get involved, to be honest.]

[Then shouldn't we just run away?]

Lee looked at Scarlet with a strange look on his face. If you are aware that it may be dangerous, you can run away.

Maybe it's because of my reputation as a horse tower master. Asking questions about him, Scarlet shakes his head vigorously after school.

Don't fuck with me. I don't like that kind of ogre. I don't want to die for something stupid like that!]

[Then why don't you just run away with me?]

[I want to...! But I can't run away. The Green Horseman here swore an oath to do the old man a favor...... The old man asked me to participate in the subjugation.]

[Why did you take such an oath?]

[I needed magical help at the time, but only the Green Horseman could help me. In exchange for your help, I was going to do the old man a favor one day. Dammit... Why would you take such an oath?]

Scarlet grunts and scratches his head. Of course, at the time, it was a situation in desperate need of the help of the Green Horseman.

Right now I think I'm just full of regrets.

After a light meal, Lee Sung-min and Scarlet left the restaurant. Currently, she and her horseman have been renting out a large inn in the city and staying there.

“You said you needed some air. You're pretty late. ”

The first floor of the inn. An elderly man dressed in a large robe is washing a pipe.

He looks at Scarlet coming through the door and smiles at his wrinkled face.

“I'm just late because I met an old friend. ”

[It's the Green Horseman.]

Scarlet sent a message to Lee Sung-min, answering the words of the Green Horseman. Lee Seong-min bowed her head toward the Green Horse Ridge.

“It's an honor to meet you. ”

“What an honor. It's an honor to see an old man dying. ”

“Why don't you stop talking nonsense? I'm studying immortal magic because I don't want to die. ”

Scarlet is dead at the words of the Green Horse Lord. The Green Horseman laughs.

“Isn't this every mortal's dream? I've dedicated my life to the reckless offenders, just studying the endless rain of eternity every human desires. It's not because of my personal greed. ”

“You're shitting me. ”

Scarlet chews the horse of the Green Horseman in front of him and grabs Lee's arm.

“The spare room, right? My old friend is really thankful, Kim Jong-hyun is going to help me fight his subjugation. ”

“Your room must be quite spacious, why don't you share it? ”

“It's not like that. ”

“We don't necessarily share the same room. You're still young, so you might want to enjoy it a little more. ”

“Please, don't be ridiculous. Do you have any room left? ”

“I don't know. Why don't you ask Lloyd? ”

“I should have done that a long time ago. ”

Scarlet grunts and goes upstairs with Lee Sung-min.

The top floors of the five-story inn were the best rooms in the inn, and the master of the Four Horsemen and Magic Troops, including Scarlet, stayed there.

Scarlet stands in front of Lloyd's visit and knocks on the door.

“Who is he? ”

Lloyd asks, looking at the Lee Sung-min standing next to Scarlet. Scarlet's attitude toward Lloyd was calm and polite, although he did not have a very good attitude towards the Green Horseman.

After hearing the explanation about Lee, Lloyd nodded his head.

“I don't have any room left...... but do you hate sharing the same room? ”

“Do you know what happens when grown men and women share a room? ”

“I can't help it if I don't want to. I'll ask the inn next door. Is that okay?”

“It doesn't matter. ”

Although he was friendly with Lloyd, he did not reveal his identity to Lloyd.

It's because I didn't want to embarrass Lloyd by talking nonsense.

After leaving Lloyd's room, Scarlet glances at Lee.

[Are you sure?]

What do you mean?]

[Wearing the inn next door is a blind and taxidermist. You're not in a good position. Is that okay with you?]

[It doesn't matter. I don't want to fringe with them, and I won't let them know who I am.]

I thought about going homeless, but it seemed more appealing.

It would be better to just stay calm in an inn used by Muslims.

They didn't seem to be hostile to the first person they saw, and they wouldn't doubt it without a reason.

There were quite a few seats in the inn used by Muslims. Lee Sung-min remembered information about the Muslims who were here.

Recruitment tax first. The household name of the hairdresser is a white gummy bear. It is considered to have similar skills as the natural sword king, the household name of the south palace.

Today, not only was there a recruitment ceremony in the city, but also his youngest son.

The recruiter was only fifteen years old, but he had outstanding qualifications and was ranked among the Late Exponents.

In addition, fifty senior citizens of the taxpayers are also in the city.

‘Into the wine...... Poison bowl. ’

The leader of the militant forces in this city was nothing more than an open firefighter.

Lee Sung-min recalled a long time ago when he met her.

Lee Sung-min's take on memory was not that bad. Even though Lee knew that the Baek Seoin who went to him for help would never come back, and that the situation forced him to escape from the dungeon with the Baek Seoin.

However, I did not blame him for taking it. Rather, Lee Sung-min thought that in that situation, the behavior of the girl who escaped from the Saxony was right.

After all, thanks to her actions, the Saxony was able to completely escape the fate of death.

This is the third time I've met the Monkey King.

One is Thorin, and the second is the Forest of Delusion. This is quite a deep relationship, but in fact, I did not have a big impression because I had not had a direct conversation with Dal Ahhee even though I had met a few times.

‘I remember peeing at the end. ’

He peed his pants in the Forest of Temptation. Lee Sung-min smiled as he recalled that moment.

Enter the inn where the Muslims are staying. You hear a faint sound coming from the backyard. Several voices become one, vomiting a reverent cry.

It looked like they were doing something as a group. I was curious, but did not go to see for myself.

“I heard from the golden steed. ”

When you enter the inn on the first floor, a middle-aged man approaches you as if you were waiting.

The black robe he was wearing reminded me of his robe, rather than his, and on his left chest was the symbol of a hairdresser.

Lee saw the two eyes of the middle-aged man who sank deep and measured his level.

‘The Southern Palace is stronger than the Southern Palace. ’

It was different from the three assessments. Lee Seong-min bowed her head.

“It's an honor to meet you at the White Sabbath. ”

“You've completed your rebuttal. ”

Recruitment Sega. The white swordsmanship recruitment Daewoon muttered, looking at Lee Sung-min.

“I can't even see through it. You... are a great master. Are you a member of the Gateway? ”

“I'm just a wanderer. ”

“Is that so?"

He stared at Lee Sung-min with his deep sunken eyes.

It's like trying to understand the level of rationality.

Though it was impossible to see straight through Lee, Lee Sung-min showed some skill. Of course, I didn't show them all.

Weaker than recruitment skills. With the skills of a moderate superstar. The recruiter nodded.

“Someday, if I get a chance, I'll rub it in. ”

“It's an honor.”

He seemed to have some doubts and tensions about understanding the level of Lee Sung-min.

Lee Sung-min bowed his head again after receiving the key to the room from Woo Yong-woon.

Lee's room was upstairs. On the way up the stairs, Lee Sung-min encountered a man dressed in shabby clothes.

One-armed.

“Greetings.”

The man opens his teeth, smiling, and greets you gently.

I was drunk.
