Record of a Thousand Lives

Henryk snores and glares at Shanette.

“Why, do you think artists can't even fight? ”

“Oh, no. It's not like that... …. ”

“Okay, come outside. ”

The three of them came out of the tavern.

Of course, the value of alcohol was calculated by Kang Yoon-soo.

Henrik, who was sober, led the two of them to the training ground.

The training ground was crowded with people fighting each other's weapons.

Henrik told Kang Yoon-soo.

“Hey, you've got a sword, you know how to use it? ”

“Huh."

“Excellent. I thought the staff was an ornament, too. ”

The training ground is full of swords and swords.

However, Henry pulled out two bladed swords from his dogs.

“Let's have a light match? You use that sword. ”

“Huh."

Kang Yoon-soo took Lavian's Longsword.

As the two men stood facing the sword, the eyes of those who split the sword gathered together.

Originally, the Dagger Clash is easy to hurt each other.

That's why only the Masters compete in the Sword Tournament.

It was because an unharmed sword demands a much more difficult skill.

I can't believe two men tried to pull off a sword like that with the smell of liquor.

Some people watched with their pathetic faces because they were not worried.

Some wise men make an unpleasant expression as if it were an insult to swordsmanship.

A man approaches Shanette and says,

“Drunks fight with swords all the time. Why don't you stop her? ”

“Unfortunately, stopping them is not going to stop them. ”

Shanette's expression was confusing.

Henryk wants to get into position with his dagger, but suddenly he tucks his hand into a sheer coat.

He pulls out a small square box.

When the box was opened at an angle, a large wooden doll was summoned.

It was a big doll that looked a few meters tall.

People yelled in shock.

“Oh!”

“You were a puppet!”

Puppet Master.

It was a class used in combat by crafting battle dolls.

It was not a very common job, so it was the first time Shanette had seen it.

To be honest, she didn't even know the doll was a combat-related class.

“I made it myself. You can fight all you want. ”

A large wooden doll tightly gripped two swords.

You see a thin thread from Henryk's right arm.

The thin thread of Mana braid did not break well, and the puppet could be manipulated as the puppet intended.

However, dealing with dolls was not easy.

The doll's ability to control the doll divided the fighting power.

‘…… Henrik Elikerson. ’

Kang Yoon-soo looked at the artist in front of him.

In my past life, there were as many relationships with Shanette as there were with him.

It reminds me of the first time Henry died.

At that time, Kang Yoon-soo embraced Henrik's corpse and mistreated him.

In that life, Henry was his teacher and brother.

Of course, that didn't happen anymore.

However, it was not lost in Kang Yoon-soo's head.

Around the time of the meeting, you hear Henryk's cheerful voice.

“Let's get started. Should I go first? ”

Kang Yoon-soo woke up.

He nods, looking at the man who just died in his head.

“Huh."

The blade of the wooden doll moves sideways.

By the time the doll felt strangely twisted, the movement had already reached the end.

The two swords crossed and aimed for Kang Yoon-soo.

Chang-!

Kwajijik-!

The doll's back was crushed.

Almost no one noticed what happened.

Henryk's surprise was brilliant.

Unique swordsmanship was inevitable, and the movement was unusual.

However, the attack on the wooden doll was over in one fell swoop.

No one could explain how Kang Yoon-soo reacted.

Even the drunkards who laughed at me said they were fighting were embarrassed.

Looking down at the smashed doll, Henry laughs in vain.

“Hey, what was your name? ”

“Kang Yoon-soo.”

“Yes, Kang Yoon-soo. What the hell are you doing? ”

“You're on your own. ”

“You filthy bastard. ”

It was the first word Henry would say in countless words.

* * *

Henrik's package was simple.

Polishing tools, puppet summoning boxes, a handful of dry, and all kinds of miscellaneous liquor.

As he walks back, Shanette makes a firm statement.

“Wash and come. ”

“It's annoying.”

“Then don't come. ”

Henryk grunts and returns to a clean slate.

I changed my coat to a stain-free one, and its original appearance was not too bad, so it was quite understandable.

Three people bought simple cookware and food.

Then you leave Leyr and walk north.

Henryk raises questions.

“You'd better get on a horse if you're going to the capital! ”

“You can't do that. ”

It was Kang Yoon-soo's answer.

Immediately after discovering the history of space, the quest was renewed.

Legendary Quest-Faithful Subordinates

I explored the history of spaces and found things that no one knew about. On the road to Leyr, there is a presence associated with an ancient hero. Confront its existence and reveal its future journey.

“Legendary quest? ”

Henryk scratches his beard.

He had just joined the group, and it was an early story.

Shanette proudly said with her hands around her waist.

“Yeah, uh, can I tell you something? ”

“Huh."

“We're doing a legendary quest. ”

“Really? Hmm. A legendary quest involving ancient heroes. ”

Henryk pats his chin.

I walked and it was night.

Kang Yoon-soo checked around mechanically and set up camp.

He sets the campfire and Shanette cooks.

Henryk hears Shanette's nagging as he lies on the floor and picks up some dry firewood.

The food situation was fine just one day after leaving the city.

Pancakes, bread with smoked ham, and rich cheese soup made my tongue dance happily.

Henry was impressed.

“A girl who looks like she can't even flip an iris is quite good at cooking. ”

“That's a compliment.”

“No, I don't think this is going to cut it compared to the Imperial Cooks. Especially the soup. ”

Henryk swallows a bowl of soup in a few short sips and suddenly rummages through the pack.

He pulls out a flask of glass filled with poisonous liquor.

Then Kang Yoon-soo gave out a wooden cup as if it were very natural.

“Give me a drink. ”

“This guy knows something. Drinking alone isn't good enough. ”

“Drinking too much is bad for your body. Eat enough."

Shanette's worries curl up and two men bump into each other's glasses.

Shanette sighs and rumbles through the campfire.

And then she said,

“Kang Yoon-soo, shouldn't you introduce Mr. Henryk to the rest of us? ”

“Huh."

“Mister? Why am I you? Call me brother!”

Henryk is already quite drunk and refuses.

Unlike Kang Yoon-soo, Henry is usually a human being.) So if I drank that much, I could get drunk.

Kang Yoon-soo reached out his right hand and said in an unusual tone.

“Summon Salamander Sally. ”

A beautiful girl appears with a spark.

Seeing Sally's fire-worn clothes, Henrik tilts his red face.

“Were you a spirit? ”

Kang Yoon-soo did not answer.

Sally rushes in, tearing herself apart.

“Dad, where's your brother? ”

“Later.”

“Hi-yi! Then play with Sally! ”

Sally begins to weep, and Shanette hugs the girl and claps.

Henryk was astonished by the strange sight.

“I've seen a few deals with spirits, but I've never seen anyone soothe a crying spirit before. ”

But it is still early to be surprised.

Kang Yoon-soo summoned another summoner.

“Summon White Vagabond. ”

“Rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr...! ”

Henryk's sober.

The white werewolf appeared right before my eyes, so I deserved it.

He raises his eyes and picks up the puppet summon box in his arms.

However, White had already pledged allegiance to Kang Yoon-soo.

Werewolf sat still like a gentle puppy and Kang Yoon-soo stroked white fur.

“Rrrrrrrrrrrr……. ”

The werewolf growls low.

It was not a rebellious attitude, but a good feeling.

Kang Yoon-soo took a piece of meat out of his backpack and threw it to White.

White swiftly chewed the meat off his bones.

Looking at the group, Henry looks ridiculous.

“What a marvelous group you have here. Continents, travelers, spirits, monsters. Hmm. I'm sorry I'm so ordinary. ”

“No, Mr. Henrik isn't quite so ordinary either. ”

“Why? I'm ordinary, aren't I, too handsome? ”

“ ……. ”

“What are you so neat about? You're hurting a middle-aged woman. ”

After all, Henryk shakes his head, considerably sober.

Then his eyes suddenly became fierce.

“Get down!”

Shanette, Sally and White instinctively listened to him.

The moment I fell to the ground, a myriad of waves passed over my ears.

Arrow baptism.

Many aim at them from afar and shoot arrows.

“Rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr...! ”

White, shrouded in the grass, growls because of its huge size.

Sally quickly hides the fire in her body.

The fire in the dark was good for attracting attention.

Keeping his head down, Henry whispers.

“Do you know what shocked me the most? ”

“What is it?”

“Kang Yoon-soo, he was already lowering himself before we fell down. ”

They looked at Kang Yoon-soo.

Kang Yoon-soo indifferently replied.

“You didn't get hurt anyway. ”

“You filthy bastard. ”

The arrow splits the air a few more times.

There's no guarantee it's a clean shot, but many arrows have flown in.

Kang Yoon-soo returned the two summons to the Summoning System.

White was too big, and Sally's flame was easy to hit with an arrow.

Henryk grunts and pulls the puppet summon box out of his arms.

“Three runner dolls. ”

Three wooden puppets protruded from the box.

Unlike the doll I pulled from the training ground, I was sleek and had long legs.

Henryk leans down and moves the manana thread attached to his right hand.

Then the three runner dolls ran in different directions.

As the target splits into three pieces, you hear the attackers' bewildered voices.

“Kironuco!”

“Oshiradurin!”
