Possessing Nothing

301,71. First (2)

Jonghyun Kim.

Abel spoke about him with a stiff voice. A ghost ship arrives on the south coast.

The Coast Guard tried to sink a ghost ship that arrived unexpectedly, but it was unsuccessful.

The ranged intercept magic fired by the wizards did not reach the phantom ship, and the ships that were launched to suppress sank in succession.

Hundreds of Deathknights pour out from a ghost ship that reaches the harbor.

They slaughter with no mercy, swinging their swords.

As soon as the dead rose to the undead, the harbor became an undead city.

“Who else could do this besides Jonghyun Kim? ”

Abel spits. He stands tall and listens to everything.

“…… the first disaster. ”

Lee Sung-min muttered in a small voice. Abel nods and turns his head.

He asked for an explanation, and Lee Sung-min told me the story she had heard from Geniella.

What Janiella said with a smile came true. Jonghyun Kim, who came in contact with Bolander, the lord of the Death Knights, was compelled to use them in return for their unwavering reversal as human beings.

[Corrupt. Or so desperate.]

Heju mutters.

I had to empathize with Lee Sung-min. Bolander, whom I met at sea, was not a villain, even if he was Desknight.

I only killed pirates while cleaning up the trash, and I didn't touch any other humans.

[Even when this old man was still alive. Volander had a different direction than the other outsiders and the black stars. I'm sure he had no choice but to become the Desert Knight. Maybe it's because they wanted to be human. That's why... we have to rely on the way we can become human. Even if it's a genocide he hasn't committed in centuries.]

“What about the caterer?”

After hearing Lee Sung-min's story, Abel, who was silent, said. He didn't seem to know anything about the demise of the tetrarch.

“…… Master passed away. ”

“…… what? ”

Abel frowned at Lee Sung-min's answer.

Lee Sung-min did not explain to Abel about the death of the tetrarch, but moved his steps again.

Abel hurriedly asked Lee Sung-min to pass by him.

“Where are you going? ”

“Heading south. ”

“…… Are you going to stop Jonghyun Kim? ”

“Yes.”

“I'll go with you. ”

Abel said that without a worry. In saying this, Lee Sung-min looked back at Abel.

“Do you trust me? ”

“What the hell are you talking about? ”

“…… maybe I'm part of the end too. ”

“I don't know what you're talking about. What does it matter if you're part of an apocalypse? It's important to stop him because Kim Jong-hyun is being an asshole right now. ”

Abel looks at the blade as he spits it out.

Pow.

Abel spits out after chewing his lower lip once.

“Too bad I can't count on your help. ”

“I'm sorry about your old man, too. ”

The sword line answered with a blurry smile. Abel stares at the blade for a moment, then crouches and turns away.

He laughs as he looks at Abel's back as he flies toward the edge of the robe.

[What a temperament. Unlike my idiot brother.]

“It will take months to get from here to the south. In the meantime, Kim Jong-hyun will do more shit. Maybe the whole South will collapse. ”

“You don't have to worry about that. ”

Abel frowns at Lee Sung-min's words. He who does not know the existence of a fairy horse only sounds like a relaxed nonsense that does not know the seriousness of the situation.

Out of the conduit, Lee Sung-min summoned a fairy horse.

“Oh, my God.”

Abel's mouth widens as he looks at the fairy horse. He looked back at Lee Sung-min as if he couldn't believe it.

“This... is a fairy horse. Horses that can leap over space and space. How can humans do this? ”

“I borrowed it from the Fairy Queen. ”

“Are you worried that you might be part of the end of the world? ”

Abel spits out a nonsense in his face.

“If you were part of the true apocalypse, the Queen of the Elves would never show you such kindness. If you knew and did that, then the Fairy Queen is also doomed. ”

“It's not unlikely. ”

Lee Sung-min replied with a bitter smile. How many times did Osla say that?

I'm friendly with you, and I respect your choices. If Lee Sung-min is part of the end, then Osla, who is favoring Lee Sung-min, may also be part of the end.

“Don't worry about that kind of shit. Now's not the time to think about it. ”

Abel spits it out and climbs onto the cold-hearted horse.

“Even if you could be the end someday, you wouldn't be the end now. Isn't it?”

“Of course.”

“Then it shouldn't be a problem to go to stop Kim Jong-hyun. Kim Jong-hyun is in Germoud, the city at the southern end. Have you ever been? ”

“No. I've been to Lebon. ”

Leeborn was the town where Lee Sung-min went to sail to Belador.

Leebone...... Leebone. Abel mutters his name and frowns.

“It's a long way from Germoud to Lebon. Have you ever been to another South City? ”

“I've been to Admiral and Deven. ”

“Something like that. There are monsters in the elderly. Yana is ruling after the death of one of the Black Stars... But Kim Jong-hyun is running wild, so the atmosphere of the elderly seems strange. I don't want to go through any trouble, so let's avoid the grown-ups. Deven is even further away...... and Lebon is the best. ”

“Can we go there? ”

“Please.”

Lee Sung-min boarded a fairy horse. Then, he suddenly had an idea and asked Abel.

“Aren't you taking Lloyd with you? ”

“He's not helping. I'd rather leave it here. Aren't you supposed to be with the Red Horseman, assuming the Horseman is dead? ”

“I broke up in Fairy Forest because it might be dangerous. ”

“It's the same thing. It won't take long for the two of you to ride together... ”

It was a question I didn't have to answer. Lee Sung-min remembered a levon that had been in his head.

The fairy horse begins its tour. The landscape changes in the long feeling of affluence.

“Fantastic!”

Upon arriving in Lekbon, Abel is the first to gain that elasticity.

“I can't believe you jumped that huge street so fast. Human magic is impossible. ”

Abel, as a wizard, bursts out of awe and descends from the fairy horse. Late at night, Leckborn was brutal.

Although it was a harbour town, the atmosphere of the whole town was not a commotion, but a fear.

The boat was anchored and people shouted to get on it.

Lee Sung-min caught one of the passers-by busy.

“What's going on? ”

“Holy shit! ”

The man who was leaving with a beautiful bag on his back opened his mouth. Lee Sung-min grabbed the man's wrist without saying a word. The man's face changed at times.

“W-what do you want to know? ”

“Why is it so noisy? ”

“That's …… that's it. You have no idea what happened in Germoud? ”

That was enough of an answer. Lee Sung-min placed the wrist of the man holding it. Abel looks irritated and pulls out his tobacco pipe.

“Word travels fast. It looks like the tragedy Kim Jong-hyun caused in Germoud has already spread here. It's better to flee. It's foolish to stay in the water. ”

Lee Sung-min knows how powerful the Desknights led by Volander are. They have never fought, but they are more powerful than any army or doomsday that exists in the world.

Volander is a monster with the power of the Predator.

Their skills will not be much better than those of the Spear Master or the Black Dragon Coven.

But other than that, the problem is Kim Jong-hyun. Kim Jong-hyun, who gained the power of the Demon King, was allowed to exist in this world because he did not awaken as the complete Demon King.

And yet, he wields the power of a limited Demon King. Moreover, he is a brilliant Black Wizard, despite the power of the Demon King.

Abel said, "It is foolish to remain merciful." Kim Jong-hyun said.

It is because Kim Jong-hyun's army is that strong that his body grows up for no reason.

“It takes about a week to get from here to Germoud. ”

“If we hurry, we'll be there sooner. ”

“No, not so fast. ”

Abel shakes his head.

“Know the fountain. Do you think the two of us can stop Kim Jong-hyun and Desknight's army? ”

“That must be hard.”

“If only there was a shareholder. ”

Abel grunts.

“It's true that Kim Jong-hyun shouldn't be given much time. It's pointless to pour extra supplies against the Necromancers. ”

“Then what are we going to do? ”

“In a week, troops will come to stop Kim Jong-hyun. ”

Abel says with a long burst of smoke. Lee Sung-min couldn't understand what that meant.

It is pointless to pour an extra amount against the Necromancer. That's what Abel just said.

“Jonghyun Kim is superior to any black wizard in the world. He had Grimoire, and his ritual in the forest made him the devil's apparition. Even if it's only half.”

“I know. ”

This place was too noisy to talk. Abel leaves the harbor with Lee Sung-min.

When I looked for an unfamiliar place, the place I arrived in was a messy alley.

Abel summoned a broker from Erebria, not caring about what Lee Sung-min was looking at.

“I'll buy you a wagon, since you gave me a ride. ”

“Do you really need to ride a wagon? ”

“You're a guard and you can run for a long time, but you're not a wizard. The Wizard is more sensitive than you think. ”

“I honestly don't understand. ”

“What?”

“Taking your time in vain. ”

“To avoid dog death. ”

After asking the broker for a wagon, Abel turns the pipe upside down and robs it of its ashes.

“It is not right for both of us to go to stop Kim Jong-hyun with a sense of justice. Of course, we're not common rubble, so if we risk our lives and take action, we can do a significant damage to Kim Jong-hyun's army. Yeah, it's the only thing we both need to throw away our lives to make up for. ”

“So?”

“This is not the case with the massacre in the north. Kim Jong-hyun used the Desknight Army to wipe out a" city. "Tens of thousands of people are dead. In the north...... there were many problems. It was the Vampire Queen's realm, and Kim Jong-hyun's low power was too foolish. ”

“You mean different this time? ”

“It has to be different. This is not the realm of the vampire queen, and Kim Jong-hyun has a precedent. In addition...... I don't know if it's intentional, but in the south is the saint of the" church. "”

“Adults?”

“You don't know. He's hardly a known figure. ”

While having such a conversation, a broker from Erebria brought a large wagon. Abel frowns and asks.

“Do you know how to pull a wagon? ”

“Should I draw them in? ”

“How old are you? ”

“Are you talking about physical or mental age? ”

“Damn it.”

Abel grunts and flicks his fingertips. A small light bursts out and becomes a faint human form.

Abel slits his fingers and writes down a drink, and the summoned steed climbs to the chariot.

“The Church didn't do much in the Northern Punitive War. But not this time. Since there has been precedent and tens of thousands of people have died, the saints of the church must be on the move. As long as we have the Desknights, we have to move. They have a position. ”

“Do you think they can threaten Jonghyun Kim? ”

“It will buy us enough time to satisfy Kim Jong-hyun. ”

Abel mutters as he gets inside the wagon. Lee Sung-min sits across the hall, and Abel heaves his breath and shakes his head.

“Talk to me. What the hell is going on? Is the... tetrarch dead? ”

With that question, the wagon that the chariot rides begins to move.
