Chapter 487 – [A Guide for Transcendentalists Traveling Post-Apocalypse]
Narrator Ki-young looked at Baek-hee with disbelief.
But I soon understood. It would be difficult for a person from a long-destroyed empire to appear, but it was possible here. In the first place, the nobility is that some of the nobles who perished in those days survived and continued their existence.
“That appearance…Yes, I’ve seen it in the records. You seem to be the Crown Princess that my grandfather, Hwasoo Kiyeong, served as your Highness.”
“Hwasu? That’s a name I don’t remember. If you said you served me, you would be a person of my era, but there was no name Hwasu.”
“That’s right. There’s no one like that. I’m really sorry for testing you.”
“I understand. It was natural to have doubts back then, but now it’s scary.”
Beyond discussing each other, go to the main point. This is no longer our story, but a conversation between people involved in the days before the apocalypse.
“To think that the bloodline of the empire would remain… It’s something to be happy about.”
“It doesn’t look that way”
“Did you notice?”
“The time has passed. The empire has long since collapsed, and I am also aware that the empire has gone beyond history and is no longer recorded in the records. If you were a human at that time, you would have had a chance, but aren’t you a human born after the empire collapsed? ?”
“Yes, that’s right. The fact that I pay my respects to you now is nothing more than respect for being a nobleman in this era and a bloodline from the Anima Empire in the past. Today, I am not the head of the Giyung family who swore allegiance to the imperial family, but the owner of the city Giyung. “
“I understand”
Baekhee made a bitter expression. If you think about what each has, there is a huge difference.
Even if the orb we have is hers, she can’t protect a single treasure with her bare body. In contrast, the narrator Giyeong is the owner of one of the leading cities in the south. Power, money, power, everything has an overwhelming difference, so it can’t be matched.
“Looks like it hasn’t been long since you’ve been traveling. If you need it, I’ll arrange a place for you here.”
“It’s okay. I have a place to go, so I’ll only accept your heart.”
“…Are you really okay? Are you saying that you don’t know that we can’t live outside for a long time in this era?”
“It won’t be a journey that will take that long. If I die along the way… It won’t be my luck.”
Aristocrats can’t live long outside?
It’s a bit shocking story, but if you think about it, it’s a story that makes sense.
People of this era had dark skin to withstand strong sunlight and heat. It is, after all, a branch of evolution that adapts to changes in the environment.
Conversely, if you don’t evolve like that, you will be weeded out. Such is the case with nobles who have been dormant for a long time.
When exposed to ultraviolet rays, skin aging, burns, or diseases such as cancer are caused. It was only natural that nobles with white skin would be weaker than the people of this era who had evolved to endure it.
“Are you willing to commit your life to an uncertain thing like luck?”
“If I hadn’t been lucky, I would have been trapped in a cryogenic sleep facility and rotted while asleep, so I wouldn’t be here right now.
“Hmm……”
Come to think of it, yes. Her luck that we met her was strong and her bond was also great.
The probability that Ruri, who stole the Yeoui Orb from the North, will come down to the South, meet us, and travel together to find Baek-Hee in a secret air-raid shelter is quite small, so it can be seen as luck or fate.
…….I feel like the Absolute One of Fate made this incident with a smile, but what I don’t know is probably the medicine.
“I understand if you think so.”
Suddenly, the gaze of the narrator came to me.
Her gaze did not turn to Lurina Jinkyo. Even though she is famous among wild dogs, even though she is a hunting dog, she doesn’t seem to have much meaning in front of the nobles, so she doesn’t even care.
At least I’m in charge of escorting them as a reinforcement soldier on the surface, so I’m giving her this much attention.
“But I’m a little uneasy about sending it like this. There must be a limit to the power that can be defended with one reinforcement.”
“Well, it’s because he’s got his own skills. He’s the kind of person who can do everything on his own, so you don’t have to worry too much.”
“Oh, then can I see the skills of the person who will be in charge of Baek-hee’s safety?”
“That wouldn’t be a question of me”
Suddenly, Baekhee stepped out and handed the initiative to Shion.
Baek-hee didn’t use me as she pleased, perhaps because she had her own sense of shame. That is why they handed over the initiative to Zion.
“Come to think of it, is he your escort?”
“Well, it’s true that he’s the most trusted person in the world.”
“Being trustworthy and protecting someone are two different things. Would it be okay if I checked to see if Baek-hee is safe?”
“Do whatever you want”
Oh, that’s it.
I feel like I know a little bit about politics. For some reason, the narrator Ki-young is trying to attract Baek-hee, and for that reason, he trips over me on purpose.
If I lose, I will try to use the lack of safety as an excuse, and even if I win, if I get injured, there is a high probability that I will use it as an excuse.
……There are many reasons to attract them. Apparently reinforcements are an important force, and opponents who are ostensibly vagabonds can get reinforcements for free in exchange for protection.
Even if it’s not that, Baek-hee is the last remaining blood of the fallen Ryeong Empire. For the aristocrats, he was the strongest joker who took the top priority when fighting for a just cause.
It was natural to want to get it even if it was a bunch. However, if he solved it by force, he would turn against the city, so he had to solve it amicably.
“Call Yu-gyeong. And leave the gymnasium empty.”
“All right”
Narrator Giyeong told the attendant and decided to call the name Yugyeong and move.
I thought it would be outside because it was said to be a gymnasium, but surprisingly it was indoors. Roughly, this building seems to be about 50 stories, and the entire floor is used as a gymnasium.
The facilities were pretty good. It seemed to have been prepared in this and that, and it seemed that it would not be damaged in a fair amount of battle.
Soon, the person called to the gymnasium was a man wearing thick armor. A small scar was visible on his face, the only visible bare skin, and the armor he was wearing was far superior to the one worn by the Eunyang Camouflage Judae.
Baek-hee’s complexion slightly changed, as if Baek-hee was aware of the menacing hum of the armor.
“Receiver armor?”
“As expected, you seem to know. It is often excavated from ruins, so we have it secured.”
“Unlike halfway mass-produced type drive armor, it’s good to be able to produce something that is only produced in small quantities even in this era…”
“It took a lot of effort to restore it, but it’s worth it. It’s an item that increases the physical ability of even a hundred fortified soldiers by more than 10 times. Even if the two of you have a good escort, aren’t they worth dealing with?”
Skilled warriors, reinforcements, and finally advanced driving armor called receiver armor.
Ki-yeong, the owner of the city, was a trustworthy condition. I don’t know about loyalty, but at least the firm will that can be seen in the eyes seems to be a pretty decent person.
However, there is no law that the character of a subordinate becomes the character of a master. That’s because the answer comes out when you look at this situation.
“Any method is acceptable as long as it does not kill or cause serious fatal injuries. In the case of victory or defeat, the one who surrenders first or is subdued will be considered defeated. Both sides agree?”
“Yes, I understand”
“Roughly”
The rules were extremely simple. In fact, it means that you can do anything as long as you don’t kill it. Rather, for someone like me, the one with fewer rules was more comfortable.
In the middle of the gymnasium, I confronted him face-to-face. The sword he is holding is a heavy greatsword that can even cut down a sand dragon in ten shots.
Wouldn’t it be possible to subdue a moderate bully with just a glance… Somehow, I feel a sense of kinship.
But since he has a formidable impression and carries something like a greatsword to slash the use of, is it my mistake to think of a work that is still serialized and will run out of life before the author completes it?
If I were a hunter x hunter, when I married Shion, I would have searched the whole dimension and had the right to complete the coma!
“Yugyeong, the captain of Geumyang in the city of Giyeong. What about you?”
“Worst. The personal escort of the wandering aristocrat, Shion.”
“Aren’t you using a weapon?”
“As you see”
Nothing was said other than self-introduction and simple questions. The sword strike of the heavy greatsword comes down as it is.
Although the blade stood, it was more for crushing and crushing than cutting. Ah, how come the matching part feels like a berserker with one arm prosthetic. Of course, both of his hands were fine.
Kwaaaaang!!!!
When the swinging greatsword is broken, it hits the ground directly. It looked like it was made of pretty hard stone, but regardless of that, it cracked and shattered and fragments splattered like bullets.
His greatsword is lifted again, and this time a horizontal slash is sent towards my side. This time I took some time to think about it.
Is it better to go overwhelmingly here, or is it better to deal moderately?
Both have their pros and cons. If you go overwhelmingly, you can tell them that you can’t touch them, and if you do it in moderation, you can strengthen your friendship.
…….But what I need here is strength. Power! More power! Awesome big power!!!!!
Aww!!!!
Thinking so, I struck the bastard’s greatsword and bounced it off. As if metal collided, sparks flew intensely.
“No?!”
“I have good skills and strength, but my opponent was bad.”
If it was another place, I might have built up a friendship while talking about what to do in the middle of a fight, but this is post-apocalypse. It is a world where military power takes precedence over personal feelings.
Now, we have to show our overwhelming strength so that we can feel the gap.
This is not a world that shows compassion and sympathy for the weak, but a society ruled by the law of the jungle. The common language here is violence.
“There’s nothing wrong with you, but I think you met the wrong owner.”
Go as colorful and strong as possible. At the point of coveting anyway, it only clings to you saying you covet it more, but the truth doesn’t change.
If that’s the case, it’s good to imprint the recognition as a bastard who will be fucked if you touch it as flashy as possible.
Roaring!!
Wooooo!!
Summons fire and wind from both hands. It is to create air currents with telekinesis and sparks with zeal.
Originally, I’m not an expert in this kind of property system, but I’m just showing it to the end. If your opponent is arrogant about having some good equipment, pretending to be a shaman wouldn’t be a bad thing, because you have to show strength enough to break that arrogance.
“Double attribute?! And a reinforced soldier?!”
“It seems you’re trying to be a little serious.”
“Is the author going to be the imperial family’s secret weapon?!”
I could feel that the narrator Kiyoung was looking at her with a shocked expression.
Reinforced soldiers are rare, and shamans are rare, but since they are both, and the shaman usually has only one attribute, I can’t help but look like I’m out of the norm.
“Goodbye for now”
Aaaaa!!!!!
The wind condensed together with the fist fires sparks to amplify the power at once. It is the same principle that if the oxygen supply to the original fire is smooth, it will bloom easily.
The opponent was quite strong, but not to the level of being particularly obstructive. It’s not even the level of the master user of the earth, but it’s enough to give enough damage with just a moderate amount.
It might have been a little dangerous if he had received it naked, but he was shocked and passed out because his mouth was good.
“Are you done with this?”
“………..”
Kiyoung’s lustful eyes grew stronger. Well, a premonition of trouble!
Anyway, she may not know if she is a small person, but as long as she claims to be an aristocrat, she has no choice but to value her face. In short, it means that a word once spoken can only be defended on the surface, even if it is manipulated behind the scenes.
In the situation where the confrontation was over, the narrator Ki-young came to his senses and returned to reality. And she got this done with a little tidying up.
“Certainly, there seems to be no problem with Baekhee-sama’s escort.”
The only problem is that the eyes are on me!
“To defeat Yugyeong in one blow.
“Since I met these people, it must mean that my luck is still following me.”
“……Where is your itinerary going to be?”
“There is no exact location yet. But it is certain that there is a place to go.”
“Um…I understand. But I can’t send guests away like this, so please stay here for today. If you want to rest in peace.”
“Don’t let that happen”
Concessions and compromises end here. The schedule was delayed for about a day, but it’s better than that. It was much better than being chased by nobles or being tied up without a promise.
First of all, Shion and Baekhee were treated appropriately as nobles. You can use most of the facilities in this building and move freely.
It’s just that kids like Jin-kyo and Ruri were given rooms, but their actions weren’t free. It was a natural reaction because, unlike nobles, a wild dog would normally think that it is not strange to steal things or do strange things.
And finally I…
“Use it however you like.”
“I will serve you wholeheartedly”
“Every time I see something like this, I think that human rights here are shit…”
About seven beauties, each with their own charm, stopped by my attendants and night attendants and barged into my room.
Just by looking at it, you can see at a glance that he is grabbing each to embrace, so it just makes me laugh. Besides, it didn’t seem like it was a good way to seduce them if there were about three people who showed signs of reluctance or fear.
But to say one thing, I didn’t say ‘beauty’, I said ‘beauty’.
Why!!!! Two!!!! Are you a man!!!!!
