“You……! ”

The man in the white hood.

Although there was only one head that had shrunk, it was definitely him who had eight arms and outfits.

A book that's been missing since I was unconscious.

In the short time that I thought I could take it back.

Glug!

The man puts his arm into the hood, returning Ashton's book.

“Take it back. I only wanted to show you that I could. ”

I opened my inventory and put Ashton's book back in, alerting him.

‘Maybe if I just wanted to, I could rob them all at any time? ’

I turned off the inventory that surrounded my body.

I don't know when I'm going to die in the arena, but it's a lot more than robbing the bottom.

It's a better choice.

“Huhu… I only homed

It's just "The Way"... Don't worry. ”

I looked at him muttering something I didn't know what to say.

‘Path?,

No, there was something I had to ask you anyway.

“What... did you know about Gizgerai back then? ”

< Never go back.

< The road is blocked and there will be no place to lean.

It reminds me of the White Hood's words.

That's exactly what Gizgerai said when he was killed.

He blinked and replied.

“Well... I don't know anything about the Necromancer. At that time, I found a terrible trap along the way. I gave him some advice thanks for reading the book. ”

I explained the curse done to Gizgerai in my heart of catching straws.

“… so, is there any way to solve it? ”

The man shrugs with a worried expression.

“The seal of the contract is reversed by the curse. I don't know if I can see it in front of my eyes because it's so versatile. I'm sure you're from the market. ”

“If you're from Mahjong.... ”

“The lord who sent you here. Ask him. ”

M | 99

The one who made the Erasts and made fun of me came back to me.

You said you'd let me know when you got out.

But... ’

I don't know if I can believe that.

Thinking of the man who owns the prison, I looked at the hood and asked.

“What's your card? ”

But the man shakes his head.

“There are no cards. ”

“What? In this Arena... ”

“Lookout zoom. I've never been there before. It's my day to walk the fog of the world. ”

That bizarre prison and arena.

You don't have to tell me you just snuck in.

A story.

I felt the lightness of the boatman trying to cheat, but I was also an unusual creature.

“Oh, take this, too. ”

The man pulls out two pairs of swords from the hood.

It was a ready-made boulder sword.

“You didn't... unlock your inventory...! ”

“They call it an inventory. I can't even touch a closed one. I took it out the first time. But… interested in what's in their ‘realm’

Isn't that too much? Hehe... ”

I picked up two swords in a mess and put them in my inventory.

He's right.

If you look inside, you can see the number of books in Cabin Ashton hasn't been properly classified, treasures or weapons.

I closed my inventory and asked.

“By the way... how did you get through my inventory? ”

The hood replied without a worry.

“If you want to know, be my disciple. ”

A little sudden.

A student.

“Well……. ”

“I will teach you the perfect way of dealing with the Realm." I kept thinking that you needed my guidance. Maybe it's fate we met again. ”

‘I'm a little overwhelmed. ’

Maybe he's interested in the next generation.

Being a disciple is not a very difficult request.

Just being taught in the first place might be called a disciple.

“Well, good. I'll become a disciple... ”

However, Hood's words were deeply embarrassing.

“Then give me the items stored in your realm. ”

“What do you want? ”

“All of them. As you wish. ”

“•" what? ”

The man's face remained unchanged in the hood.

“It is the law of equal exchange. This level of teaching requires a tremendous amount of tribute. The whole thing in there would be appropriate. ”

“... borrow Ashton's book like last time.

Can't you just give it to me? ”

“Give me everything you've got. A good thing is a habit of paying the right price in the long term.... ”

“Never mind. I won't. ”

“Okay, that's it... What...? ”

“I won't. ”

I declined cleanly.

Not to mention Ashton's book.

Even if other treasures are not used right away, they are valuable items chosen by Isaac and Nannau.

Even if you get to know your inventory better in this way,

I couldn't hand it over.

And what do you believe? ’

I can feel the hood shaking.

“… think again. Where do you think you're gonna find a scumbag like me? At best, I'll be conned by the lord of the phantom prison. ”

Despite escaping, the Hood has been stalking me.

“Why do you keep following me if you don't want to? ”

“You're obsessed. You need me too much right now. ”

It is overconfident.

“Even though you are weak, you have your own realm.... If it's a fresh, undefined ‘Realm'... I must teach it. ”

Hood said as if to instill trust.

“The fundamental characteristic is‘ storage ’... but it doesn't seem stubborn... Did someone break their identity once?" I'm quite free. ”

“Do you even know that? ”

The hood nods at my words.

“Since I've traveled all over the world, I can compare the traits...

We can catch them in no time. It is even a ‘space’ controlled by the individual. ”

“Ugh… W

"n". •

I thought about it for a while.

“No.”

The answer is still the same.

There's a Gizgerai dagger in the inventory.

I don't know how much I can teach you, but I can't just hand it over.

‘But my inventory was breached...' ’

He gave it all back, but it's pretty shocking.

‘Maybe you should only use it when you need it. ’

I walked back to the brawl point without even floating my inventory.

It was then.

“You can't go there! ”

The moment of stiff-necked screaming.

He said with a look on his forehead.

“Oh dear... Then replace it with a favor. ”

“Ho…? ”

Something doesn't add up.

“I'll be honest with you. You're the body that's been exploring the most

Beyond the specifications... We don't know what will happen or where we'll go. Then... I also want to buy the favor of such an existence. ”

The hood sighs deeply.

“Phew. I can't believe I'm forcing you to... ”

My pleasure.

‘I can give it to you. ’

In fact, that's nothing...

It makes me worry.

No, I don't.

If you treat it that easy,

Might be a problem.

I'm sorry for the other people I've met.

< It's a difficult situation. You don't know what you're getting back at next time, do you? We can do anything to restore trust, no... we have to. I needed you to come back to me. That's not a sacrifice.

Even Isaac remembers trying to erase his heart from me.

“... Never mind. ”

“What? Are you saying no to this, too? ”

“Isn't that how favors are traded? Even if I could have one in a moment. ”

“Haha... Haha... That's right...

You're right. I was too hasty. So... stop for a second. You can't go in there. The brawl you saw was made by one man. ”

The man smiled as if he were ashamed.

“It's elemental magic that's chaotic. A trap aimed at someone who thinks they're tired from fighting. ”

“What? A trap? ”

The description followed.

“He's trying to enjoy himself in the Arena on purpose... You'd better avoid him. If you wait, you'll know I was right. ”

He stretched his hood and covered me.

‘They don't seem to want to attack me...' ’

It was about thirty minutes after I lay still.

Kukwaang! Kukwang! Boom, boom!

A black light from the sky began to pierce the place.

An unclean force has swept through the wilderness and forests in a heartbeat, centered on the spot I had aimed for.

The ground shakes at a single step.

‘I'm glad we're this far away. • •...

Shockwave that appears to file more than a few meters at a time.

The flesh goes beyond the debris, into the juice, into the basement.

I can't even hear the screams.

‘It's amazing……. ’

After a long frenzy.

The hood whispers small.

“She is the most powerful person in this arena……. Well, have you confirmed that I'm right? ”

“... Thank you. ”

If I had walked there, I would have ended up looking exactly the same without any compensation for coming here.

“Let's get up now. ”

Hood said.

“But did you go hunting for a weary one, too? ”

“That's not it……. ”

One crisis saved.

‘You can call it that. ’

The hood nods in awe at the fact that it tried to absorb the corpse.

“What a remarkable ability. Good. Things will get easier than I thought... I knew he cared. Yeah! Let's do what you used to do. ”

I shook his hand and followed him.

“Now you're my apprentice! ”

You look very enjoyable.

There was no stiffness in the step as if you had already looked back at the Arena once.

“Here.”

It's about 50 centimeters in size.

A green glow was coming over the corpse of a half-butterfly and bee.

“Fairy……. ”

In my previous life, the tribe that I had seen since the Demon King's coming fell in the Horse Merchant Arena.

Exhale the power of the elements.

An object that is extremely difficult to grasp due to its small and fast wingspan.

Hood said as if he was reading my thoughts.

“Yes, he has the power of lightning.

Shot down. Absorb it. There aren't many bodies like this because of the guy I saw earlier and the corpse collection team. ”

Gooooo...!

The air around the light vibrates.

As always, the green light was drawn into my body, and I felt a feeling full of gloom.

‘Quite large. ’

Daglac!

Quite large capacity

How your body moves at will.

[Epilepsy Lv.1 (new!).]

[Epilepsy Lv.2 (new!) …]

[Epilepsy Lv.5 (new!).]

Restores paralysis/spreading/chain/Magic Destruction properties of the skill.

The green light that was heavily sucked in

Slowly disperses throughout the body.

'Magic' recovered after losing its power for the first time.

‘... Level 5... That's amazing. ’

It's a skill I've already learned.

‘The efficiency of the rise is overwhelming. ’

We've already confirmed that they are much more efficient than new acquisitions.

It's enough to regain the power it absorbed from Elland, the tower of thunder.

The hood is the horse.

“Let me teach you the first lesson. From now on, continue to exhale the power you absorbed. ”

Phage job!

Activates skills as instructed.

A yellow concussion flashes through your fingers.

It is quite satisfactory.

Lightning that starts at your fingertips comes out everywhere.

Running, running is not enough.

Past the regression, it clings to me, supporting me as if the fluid flowing through the bone was this relaxing.

The white hood stares at me with the expression mentioned above.

“This capacity... is... just as I thought. Now activate the Realm. ”

“I see.”

Whoo-hoo!

The air pushes out everywhere.

Three meters in radius.

When lightning strikes within the Realm and lightning scatters abroad,

Ugh!

The white hood next to you loosens one of the orange knots on the inside.

What is that? ’

A knot flies through the air like a living butterfly.

And I started to bind the two of them by interfering with the crazy epilepsy and the "realm" that I activated.

“Continue.”

Phage job!

The growing lightning bolt wraps around the knot.

It was when the gray knot slowly melted into the air as it shrunk.

“Now widen it. ”

Five meters.

Seven meters.

Over-excited!

The shockwave of a hemisphere made of lightning.

Suddenly, they were devastated everywhere.

Kwakwang! Kwakwang!

Every time the lightning strikes, the stone floors begin to crack.

Ashen soil splashes up, and dust splashes out.

“Wider. ”

10 meters.

15 meters.

Even if it extends so far, the lightning does not weaken at all.

The insulation of the air does not occur within the hemisphere I set.

Kwakwang! Kwakwang!

Live ⁄.

The air bursts. The air bursts. Causes convulsions.

15 16 17… 18… 19…….

“I was too eye-catching. Let's cut back.”

It wasn't until the 20-meter radius that I realized I was intoxicated myself.

“Did you feel that? You just created the Realm of Lightning." ”

“The… Realm of Lightning……. ”

How is this possible? ’

He looked very proud.

“Much better than I expected. The form and realm of the power of lightning has led to my knot. ”
