The Live

131.

Clan houses in the Skyscraper Clan.

The tallest building on the other side, the top floor.

Arhan is closest to the sky.

Knock-knock.

Arhan, who was leaning down on the chair in the Oval Office, replied with a knock.

“Come in.”

Ouch.

“You don't even ask who? ”

It was Elvin who opened the door to the Oval Office.

Arhan gets up from his seat pushing the chair that was leaning back.

“I knew it was you. It's been chilly from the first floor. ”

“Did I do that? ”

“Well, don't just stand there, I've got customers. ”

Arhan said, looking at Yoon Jae who was following behind Elvin.

Elvin grimaces as he looks at Arhan sitting on one couch. Then, I saw Yoon Jae sitting across from him first, and I moved myself.

Soon, Arhan and the two of them sat down.

Arhan raises a warm bottle of beer that he placed on the table between the couches and asks.

“Tea? Beer? What are we gonna do? ”

“I don't mind a drink. ”

“Really? I've never seen him before today. He's quite hard. ”

Dark-

Arhan picks a jar of beer and starts swallowing. Yoon Jae thought, looking at Arhan like that.

‘It doesn't feel like what I expected. ’

It seemed unlikely that a giant was leading a large clan called the Skyscraper.

Elvin seems to feel heavier with his tone. Somehow, Arhan was lightly impressed.

“Khh. Delicious, sweet. ”

“I'd like a drink, too. ”

“Why? Have you changed your mind? ”

“Yes, I've been here and I've never seen beer before. ”

“Good thinking. I knew the drinks were better than sharing them alone. He won't fight me if I don't like him. ”

Arhan gives the bottle to Yoon Jae and points at Elvin with his jaw. Either way, Elvin frowns a little and twitches his facial muscles.

‘Kick it.’

Yoon Jae, who had been sick by Arhan, was surprised when he thought he was going to get sick.

I didn't know the bottle of beer that was always out there was so cold. It looks like Arhan has cooled down in that short time.

Dark-

Gulp-gulp-gulp-

Yun Jae uncovered the stopper of the beer bottle and handed the beer over to the throat, just like Arhan.

The taste of beer that was going to my neck without rest was good. Yoon Jae emptied a bottle in a heartbeat.

“Phew -”

Yoon Jae, who emptied the beer to the bottom, turned the empty bottle upside down. Then you put the empty bottle on the table, making a big noise.

“I think we're done here. Let's start talking. ”

“Why did you ask me to stop drinking? ”

Arhan shakes his remaining alcohol with a look of excitement.

“I'm not going to lighten things up while drinking. ”

“...... I didn't know there was anyone tougher than this guy. ”

Arhan takes in what remains of the liquor, like Yoon Jae.

The cold beer that went down my throat felt poisonous. I was wondering if it was that sweet drink I just had.

“Khhh. This isn't good. ”

“Looks like you're awake. I'm sorry."

“Never mind. Maybe I'll drink it alone later. So, what's the story? ”

“Let me ask you this directly. ”

Yoon Jae asked, looking directly into Arhan's golden eyes.

“What are you hiding? ”

In Yun Jae's question, Arhan didn't shake a single eye.

He twists his mouth to see Yoon Jae staring straight at himself.

“Hide what? ”

He gives you a hint of something on his face, and speaks something else out of his mouth.

Yoon Jae's eyes naturally narrowed.

Arhan looks at Yun Jae's expression for a moment and raises his hands.

“I'm not trying to be funny. I'm just asking you for a little more detail, so don't get me wrong. ”

“If the question is too broad, I'll talk slowly. We met dragons there. ”

“Dragon?”

“Yes, but he said, Clan leader and other first-generation people have been to undiscovered areas where we've been. Is it true?”

“He's talking nonsense. Yes, it's true. ”

Unexpectedly, Arhan nodded softly and admitted.

It was hopeless. I thought you'd be spinning or lying.

“Why did you hide it? ”

“Hide what?”

“It was definitely an undiscovered area. Untouchable to any of them. ”

“Wait. There must be some misunderstanding.... ”

Arhan shakes his head and replies.

“The standards of undiscovered areas are out of the reach of architects, so map or information is not in place. It's hard to see that we've made our way there once. ”

Arhan said as if the answer had been prepared.

And it was hard to see that that was so wrong.

It was clear whether or not the standards of the area, which had been pioneered as he said, were mapped and informed by agents.

“Are you kidding me right now? ”

At that moment, the impatient Elvin asked with a growling voice.

“You have no idea why we're asking you this right now. ”

“I don't know. ”

“There was a temple where we went. You knew that, too, didn't you? ”

A smile was wiped from Arhan's mouth when Elvin asked.

At the same time, I narrowed my eyes that were playfully bent. The eyes were just so serious that I thought it was the same person as before.

Arhan asks again, unlike before, with a voice down.

“But?”

My voice was heavy.

This was Elvin's first time. Yoon Jae felt suffocated by Arhan's sudden overturning atmosphere.

I wasn't using any power. I just felt like I was getting smaller in front of that big guy, Arhan.

‘This... is a golden thread. ’

A completely different face from the one you just saw.

Perhaps this is the true face of the golden radish, Arhan.

“What did you see in that temple? ”

“ ……. ”

Arhan closes his eyes instead of answering.

It was like I was having a deep thought. After covering his face with one hand and turning his head back, Ahan opens his eyes again and asks.

“Why do you ask? ”

“To ask if you've seen anything like us. ”

“Same thing... …. ”

Arhan chews something out of his mouth and asks with a small smile.

“What did you see there? ”

* * *

A small room in the center of the temple.

Inside, Yoon Jae saw the painting on the wall and read the unknown characters.

Yoon Jae reads it as if he was possessed by something, leaving the other party alone.

The text on the wall was small and subtractive. It took me a day to read it all.

“When do I get out? ”

Regular people were stuck in the room all day thinking about Yoon Jae reading letters.

The other party leaves the room so he can concentrate. Yoon Jae was dumbfounded the whole time reading the text, as if he didn't see anything or hear anything.

“It's already been a day.... ”

“When you're done, you'll see. ”

Regular words were full of worries, and Elvin leaned against the wall and replied.

There was frustrating air between the four. I have been like this ever since I entered and left the room.

Everyone knows the blur.

The moment Yoon Jae comes out of that room, you may learn the secrets of this place.

No, it wasn't just the secrets of this temple.

The first generation to enter the inner world.

It was something they were hiding, something they might find out.

‘When will it come out? ’

I don't know why Yoon Jae can read those letters. Even then, you probably won't know until Yoon Jae opens that visit.

Of course I had to wait for him. There was nothing else I could do.

I wonder how much longer I've waited.

Gain -

When the door opened again, Yoon Jae began to read the text a day and a half later.

“Brother!”

“Are you done?”

After Yoon Jae's visit, the others get up and greet him.

Regular chewing the jerky and filling his hungry stomach, he put them roughly in his pocket and hurriedly headed to Yun Jae.

“How did it go? Did you find anything out? ”

“…… a little. ”

Yoon Jae's answer was not strong.

Regular people lost their horses for a while in that heavy atmosphere.

When I left the room, I wanted to ask a lot of questions, but when I heard Yoon Jae's voice and saw his face, I was speechless.

‘What the hell did you see? ’

A complex heart is buried evenly in my face.

Yoon Jae stood silent for a moment and opened his mouth.

“It's a record of the Holy Grail. ”

“What?"

“Holy Grail?”

Everyone who was there was surprised at Yun Jae's words.

I thought there might be some unusual records.

But this was a temple.

No matter what records you have here, it has nothing to do with you.

The only question was, how does this temple relate to first-generation people, including Arhan, and why Yoon Jae can read the text alone?

But the letters written in the room have something to do with the Holy Grail.

“...... Things have gotten bigger. ”

Elvin's voice also grows heavy.

So far, there's nothing to say about the Holy Grail.

It is only known that it exists, and no one knows how to get it.

If this temple is a clue to find the Holy Grail, it will turn the whole world upside down.

“Phew -”

Yun Jae lets out a fatigued breath, then opens her mouth as she looks around the group.

“I'll tell you what I've learned in there from now on. ”
