The World of Masks

The scorching sun has finally turned. All day long, the sun, which has squeezed all its strength and turned the land into a land of heath, is beginning to move west to prepare for tomorrow. The goal was beyond the horizon.

"Phew."

Callie wipes the sweat off her face. The sticky sweats drenched my clothes. Rich and weak, monsters were in the southern region, but I never got used to this heat.

"You okay?"

I smiled at the worrying owner.

"It's okay. It's just hot."

Then, I put more strength into the hand that wrapped around the master's neck, making my body even tighter. Is it someone who thinks it's hot? I turned around as if it was ridiculous, but Callie just laughed and didn't seem to want to loosen her arms. Jinsuk straightens his head again and extends one arm high.

Tuck!

Place your hand on the jaw of a bumpy rock and give it strength. Jack's muscular arm thumps and his strength grows. Jack's body rises.

"Wow."

Behind you is the voice of admiration. Using Callie's admiration, Jack stretches his other arm upward, pushing even more.

Where Jack and Callie are, there can never be ordinary people. No, life on the ground, living on the ground, adhering to gravity, with the exception of flying animals, was a place where even the daredevil could not climb.

It was a rock wall. Jack and Callie hang on a cliff like a cliff. Average angle 80 degrees. It was often a rock that protruded beyond 90 degrees to 110 and 120 degrees, climbing up only by arms and legs. I laughed at the power of gravity, and the unknown bird flew over the cliff for a long time. Jack is going up there with Callie on his back. It was not a smooth cliff, but a cliff in rocky terrain that would hurt a lot if the chin fell down, so there were many places to hold hands and feet. However, it was never an easy climb because the angle was the angle. Like old Jack, it was never possible. But Jack's enhanced body was making it possible, or rather, incredibly easy.

Callie is tied to Jack's body with a rope, just in case. He had his arms around Jack, ignoring even the hot weather.

Jack glances down. The highest mountain cliff in the vicinity. That's how tall this rock was. It was bigger than anything else. It surrounded the mountain like an acidic castle. You turn your gaze to the side, but you can't see the edge of the rock.

It seemed to take quite a long time to climb, but surprisingly, it did not take long to climb. In reality, professional rock climbers climbed rock walls over several hours, but Jack's strength was not even comparable to their strength. The speed at which Jack rose was similar to that of an ordinary man walking on flat ground.

Soon they reach the end of the cliff.

"Wow, what a bummer height."

Callie falls flat on the ground, her head hanging out and looking down at the cliff. Jack looked down. The wind howls in horror. Pretending it was similar to the height of a skyscraper to the ground below.

'Good thing there are no flying monsters.'

Of course, the weakened monsters to the south were hunted down by Callie, who was preparing for the Wind Clan magic, just in case, on Jack's back, but it was no bother.

"Do I always have to go this way?"

Callie asks. Suddenly, your face is a little parched. You really don't like this high place with no safety guards.

"I can't help it. This is the kind of place where security is secured."

I turned my back on Callie, who was in tears. He starts walking. Callie gets up quickly and walks behind him.

It was not uncomfortable walking up the cliff. It was a bit bumpy, but it was flat compared to the cliffs up to 120 degrees. Callie's having a little trouble walking, too. I saw a large peak a little distance away. This cliff was high enough, but that peak was much higher than this. It was like a caldera from a lava eruption. The mountain tax is rougher than the cliffs that Jack and Callie climbed.

About 30 minutes after that, Jack stopped walking.

"Is this it?"

"Yes."

Callie stands behind Jack with her head held out. In front of them, there was a huge hole about three meters in diameter. I pushed my head slightly. There was light coming from the inside. From what I heard, the height with the ground inside was not very high. You see a stake embedded deep next to the hole. The circumference of the iron peg was so thick that an adult could barely wrap his hands around it. I couldn't figure out how long it was stuck deep in the rock. The iron peg was lined with thick chains and stretched into the hole. It was used by members of the organization to come out from the inside.

Jack hugs Callie.

"Tsk!"

Callie closes her arms around Jack's neck, screaming a little. After holding Callie in her arms, Jack jumps into the hole without hesitation.

Kuang!

There was a loud noise inside the cavity. Due to the nature of the confined space, the sound continues to roar inward without escaping out. My ears hurt a little.

Jack drops Callie next to him and looks around. It was quite a wide cavity. A radius of at least 100 m seemed sufficient. The pillars that support the cavity were scattered, and each one had a light source that illuminated it. When I looked closely, I saw that the beads of light were hanging on the torch. The dark pupils were illuminating like daylight. A chain descending from the high hole wiggles a wedge next to your face.

"Huh? Shift already?"

Someone talked to me. I was sleepwalking out of my sleep, and when I stopped yawning, I rubbed my eyes. Jack sprints out like a shot without hesitation.

"Huh, huh?"

The target aims calmly, even in a sudden stumbling situation. He has a lot of practical experience. But Jack was much faster. A black sword cuts through the man's arm and passes by.

"Ahhhh!!"

Grab my arm and roll. An unprecedented amount of pain broke through my head. I fell down because I couldn't even stand up. Jack swings his sword mercilessly. Screaming grows. However, his remaining arms and legs fell from his body without a sound of screaming. And finally, Jack sticks his hand in the man's mouth.

Wood Duck.

"Meg, Meg, Meg!!"

A chunky gauntlet shatters the teeth and jaw bones and pulls out the tongue. I gripped my strength while it was still there.

Duck!

His tongue was literally torn apart by a powerful force. Eventually, the man fainted, blinking his eyes at the extreme pain. Jack throws the man to the ground. The man falls to the floor, staggering intermittently like a bug.

"Callie."

"Yes!"

Callie quickly approaches and crouches beside the man. Then I started spraying potions on the wound. The best potion can literally restore the severed body, but right now, the potion that Callie is spraying has to be less than minor. There was no such terrifying healing power. But it was enough to stop the bleeding and heal the wounds. Another worm was born.

Taang!

There was a loud noise inside the cavity. The sound echoes and shakes as the ceiling crumbles. Jack twists. A bullet grazed you by the side. You remove the Large Cannon Steel Shield from the bracelet and place it in Callie's front. The ground cracks and the shield stands upright. As soon as he sees Callie hiding under the shield with the bugs, he blows away.

"Huh?"

I didn't think I'd get away with it, so I waved my sword at the embarrassed one. Fibona raises her arms high with a gun. The pig's throat shrieks. I swing my sword a few more times without hesitation. It was just a moment before I was torn apart by a bug that just rolled around missing limbs and tongues like the previous one. Callie calls. Callie from the cold shield sprinkles a potion on him.

Is this the end of the guards? '

The information I got from the boss was all of them. Jack sticks his sword in. Callie pulls the worm next to her, and heads for the worm first.

Suddenly, I heard a loud noise. You can see a group of people coming out of the rock wall. Parisian complexion and bold outfits. And the chains on your legs. It was a form of slavery for all to see.

'Found it.'

Jack shines an eye. I walked to people without hesitation. People were looking at Jack with their eyes mixed with vigilance and fear. I switched jacks with two of my crew members who were on the ground. Are you here to save yourself? I started experiencing little expectations of people's faces.

"Greetings, everyone!"

Jack stands in front of the NPCs gathering in a furrowed furnace and shouts out in a loud voice. It was like a theater actor shouting in a play. The deep enough voice of kindness filled people's faces with anticipation. Are they really here to save themselves? However, their expressions soon turned into despair and horror.

"I'm your new owner, Jack the Reaper."

Jack laughs and shouts out loud.
