Chapter 1427 – Baekgye
“Conscience?”
Tayria nodded enthusiastically as if what I said was right.
The things that kidnapped our Nelf at the Star Festival, attacked the wizards in the Midnight Sun, and attacked us in this world to kill us are now asking us to accept them as subordinates?
The white rabbit bowed its head even further and placed its forehead on the ground.
“I will follow your orders unconditionally, except if I die!!”
“Her.”
I was dumbfounded and curious at the same time.
Why are you suddenly asking me to accept you as a subordinate?
You could say that I have eyes to see.
Even though I’ve been treated unfairly, I’m probably the best player among the current players. You might think that you don’t want to be my enemy, and that it would be easier if you were under me.
However, as I have emphasized several times, this game of white eggs is not something that can be achieved by being strong alone.
At least. That’s what they know.
They won’t feel such a huge gap in their skills and mine that they would ask me, who hates them so much, to accept me as a subordinate.
So. I could only think of one thing that the Marbing tribe would want from me.
“Are you asking me to give you all the white clothes in exchange for working as my subordinates?”
At my words, not the White Rabbit, but the surrounding Mavi people shouted.
“Yes!”
“Right!!”
Damn I sat down.
I was laughing and clenching the hilt of my sword, but the white rabbit suddenly raised its head.
“You guys. Who gave you permission to open your mouth right now?”
The Mabing people huff. I shut my mouth.
The white rabbit put its head on the ground again.
“I apologize for my subordinates’ rudeness!!”
“You’re rude enough.”
…Well, okay.
Let’s hear what you think.
“What do you want, why do you volunteer to work for me?”
“I think it would be the best if I could have everything white!!”
How ridiculous is Teyria? Ha! After making a sound, L silently created a light sphere.
However, the white rabbit spoke while still defenseless.
“But. We can’t get our hands on all the white things. We will die here. Rather than die, I want to compromise.”
“Why are you thinking so negatively? What is your basis?”
The White Rabbit was silent for a moment and then spoke.
“It’s my persimmon.”
“Persimmon.”
What he says is messy and has no logic, but this clumsy appearance actually makes him more trustworthy.
Of course, it seems that there is no lie in the story of asking to be accepted as a subordinate. There is no way you can trust them.
I thought for a bit and then said.
“What do you two think?”
“It’s absolutely the opposite.”
Tayria whispered to me in her stern voice.
“Besides the unbelievability, the mere presence of these demonic beasts means I won’t be able to use most magic?”
“No worries about that!”
The White Rabbit raised her head and cried out, even as she whispered that her big ears were decorative.
“I found a way!!”
“What is that method?”
The White Rabbit answered my question right away.
“You have skills!!”
“Skill.”
Among the skills of the White World, the characteristics of the Mabing tribe. Is there something that suppresses the waves that disrupt all energy?
I looked at L this time, thinking of various possibilities.
“I will follow Dre’s judgment unconditionally.”
El responds in a cold voice, sharpening her vigilance towards the Mavi people surrounding her.
Coo coo coo coo.
Ryunar of light burned in her body.
The momentum was so strong that the ferocious Ma Bing tribe was trembling and tensed.
As I looked around at them, I sighed. He pointed with his finger at the boiling white earth in the distance.
“…? What? To suffer? Do you mean to show the sincerity of your previous hostility?”
I nodded in response to the White Rabbit’s question, and the Mabing tribe went into an uproar.
“You human!! Are you telling us to burn to death?!”
“Chief! Let’s just eat him!!”
Wow.
Why not try it?
But only two showed a strong reaction. The rest didn’t come forward even though they looked uncomfortable.
The two who shouted also cowered as the white rabbit glared at them.
“If we want to suffer, we will. But we cannot be told to die…”
“No, no.”
I shook my head and cut her off.
“I’m not telling you to suffer for nothing. In fact, somewhere in this boiling earth, there is a ‘key’ that is the way to clear this white world.”
Teyria looked at me with an angry face.
The look in your eyes that asks why you are telling me that.
“Key…?”
“I only heard about it, so I don’t know exactly what the key looks like, but it is said to be here somewhere. It’s unclear information, but if you bring it to me, I will accept it as your subordinate.”
“I get it!!”
The white rabbit stood up quickly and walked into the white earth.
As soon as Tayria made a noise of embarrassment… It sounded like meat being grilled.
Could it really be the Mabing tribe?
There is a burning sound, but there is no change in the body, and the recovery is stronger.
Unexpectedly, other Ma Bing tribe members followed her without hesitation.
Even if it doesn’t die, it doesn’t mean it doesn’t hurt.
After watching them walk away for a while, I spoke to them.
“Let’s go too.”
I pointed to the other side of the Marbing tribe and walked away.
“No… Let’s go in there? Are you crazy? Huh?”
Teiria opened her eyes wide when she saw that I was fine after going into the heat after criticizing me.
“Would you have asked me to go without any way?”
“Her.”
She let out a laugh.
For your information, El moved with me almost as soon as I took a step.
…So reliable!!
“We are looking for the king’s soul. If possible, it would be good to find the key as well.”
Tayria silently stood next to me and watched the surroundings.
At first, I wasn’t careful. If you look at the fact that he has reached a high level in just a month, he must be a genius too.
About 10 minutes passed?
Tayria, who had been following in silence, suddenly opened her mouth.
“It’s pretty, right?”
“? You? El is prettier, but you are pretty too.”
“D-dre…!”
L, who was looking around sharply, looked embarrassed and covered both cheeks.
Sorry. Flat.
I didn’t do it on purpose…
At that moment, Teirya glared at me with excitement.
“I mean the white rabbit. Otherwise, how can I tell them the important information called the key?”
“It’s all about losing money. I also wanted to avoid unnecessary battles.”
“What if they take the key and run away? What are you going to do after that?”
I grinned.
“What are you worried about? All you have to do is collect four of the king’s souls.”
“No. What kind of nonsense is that? Even if there is another way, as I said before, it’s better to have more means, right?”
The way to get to the location of the White Knight is with the key and the original bag called the king’s soul. There are two.
But.
“I agree with that, but… I think there’s something off about the key.”
Teyria was silent for a moment. L also glanced at me.
“…Is that a feeling?”
“Yes. Persimmon.”
“Hmm…”
Tayria pursed her lips.
I can’t believe this guy who was babbling has become completely mute. I guess my senses are sharp.
“The reason you didn’t tell the Marving people about the king’s soul was because you believed you could get to the White Knight’s place that way?”
“After hardship comes happiness.”
The beginning bag. Collecting the king’s soul is an incredibly difficult task, and it is an event that shakes the worldview of the White World.
The setting of going to the place where the White Knight is with the soul of the king who is said to have shared the White Knight’s power is also understandable.
“Huh. Me again. It seemed like I had a good time with that waitress yesterday. I was wondering if you were thinking of doing the same with that white rabbit.”
L’s expression hardened. It seemed like he was remembering what happened yesterday.
“It was a good time. We just talked.”
“Huh~ A man and a woman were alone in a room at night, just talking?”
“But how do you know that?”
“I saw it by chance. By chance.”
There is a lot of emphasis on coincidence.
“But Teiria. Even though you hate the Marving tribe, it seems like you recognize them as people?”
To think that I was captivated by the beauty of the White Rabbit.
But. There are some elements that don’t look human, but if you look at her face, it’s clear that she’s a beauty.
You might think that external elements are also unique points of appeal.
If only Nelf had not been kidnapped, I would have liked him too.
But Tay Lia shook her head.
“No? Mr. Dre seems to be very flirtatious with women, so I just assumed he didn’t mind any women?”
“…”
I am silent and L is tingling. I glared at Teiria.
“Hey.”
“What? Lady Greize was talking about it all night yesterday.”
“My, when will I…!”
Sigh! I grabbed Tayria’s neck and pulled her.
“Now, wait a minute! Are you mad?!”
“Shh.”
I put my finger next to my mouth and gestured for her to be quiet, then pointed to where she had just been.
“…? Huh…!”
Teiria almost gasped, covering her mouth with both hands.
Right next to where she was, something transparent was passing by.
The transparent thing was bipedal, but had a strange head that looked like a fish or a lizard.
“…I’m going to turn.”
That guy isn’t the only one.
Now I realized, there are guys that look the same running around all over the place.
Elle came next to me and whispered in her ear.
“Shall I kill you?”
Ugh. The light sphere rotated around me and El, and I shook my head.
“They probably act as antennas.”
“Is it an antenna…?”
Listening to Teirya’s small voice, I pointed into the distance.
Far away. The shaking part.
There is something so huge that it reminds me of a mountain.
Teiria and El were speechless.
I grumbled too.
“No matter what you do, it’s not easy…”
I found an item that could ignore the intense heat, and there were monsters in that heat. And there is even a really tough looking boss monster.
“Don’t provoke, but take your time and pay attention to your surroundings.”
“Yes yes…”
Tayria clung to me and her face turned pale.
L stared at it and said, “Kyaa, keaa…” And stuck to the other side of me, making an awkward sound.
It’s a flower in both hands.
As we continued walking and got some distance from the giant monster, Tayria, still looking scared, opened her mouth.
“But how are you going to find the king’s soul? There are things like that running around, so I don’t think it’s possible to just search for it…”
“This game is difficult, but it is not unreasonable.”
The king’s soul will have a noticeable appearance in some form.
“Even so. This place is too wide…”
“I have an idea. Then…”
I use ‘1 second awakening’, which allows me to live with just one soul.
For a moment. My aura that surpasses even kites and intangibles returns.
And what caught my sense… Was a vivid Lunar.
“There you are.”
As I pointed, Tayria tilted her head and fiddled with her wand.
He’s been fiddling with his cane since a while ago.
“On what basis?”
“I can feel Waikatsu’s Ryunar there. It’s a very familiar energy.”
Elle was startled and she had a happy face.
“Nelf…Is he alive?!?!”
“Yes.”
I didn’t tell you.
“Not only Nelf, but also Homun.”
Next to Faikatsu’s intense energy, there was one more, albeit weak, energy.
Probably a homun.
I don’t know how they did it, but they both survived this white hell.
“Let’s hurry. It’s already been a few days since what happened, and you two haven’t been able to eat or drink…”
[Yellow filth has joined the battlefield!!]
?
What?
[Red monsters have entered the battlefield!!]
El and Teiria were embarrassed by repeated unidentified alarms.
“Huh? Huh? What is it?”
“…”
Seeing the two people panicking, I spoke softly.
“…Let’s hurry up.”
If you make a mistake, no. Probably with a very high probability. This area will soon become a mess.
I want to quickly rescue Nelf and Homun and get out before something bad happens.
“You two. I’m going to run now, so follow me closely.”
“Yea, I got it!”
“Huh? Running. I have stamina… No, sleep…! Hey!!”
Tayria, who lagged behind, fiddled with her staff and followed her.
Grumbling.
A red-hot heat that is hotter than pure white heat. Lava flows on the floor.
The red waves emitted by those wearing red priestly robes following them were blocking the pure white heat.
At the forefront of them. Red Tower Master Kranium pointed to the direction the Dreads had just headed to.
“That place.”
In response to his words, the only one among those wearing red priestly robes who wore a necklace showed extreme courtesy, bending his waist 90 degrees and placing his hand on his chest.
“Guidance. Thank you, Red Devil.”
Red Tower Lord Kranium did not answer, but stared into the distance and muttered.
“Guide me well, Teiria.”
