Chapter 80
His choice.
Lunch the next day.
“Phew.”
Drive home after all the schedules are over.
Duck.
As he entered the house, the place he headed straight for was on the bed.
‘Ah… I’m tired. ’
If I had just killed Jae-ho Kim and gone home right away.
I might not have been so tired.
‘But it was the right thing to do. ’
After disposing of the entire body, remove the suit.
You’ve been through enforcement to help other Awakeners deal with the monsters that are swarming the city.
‘Save people’s lives, preach their names at random. ’
The last time he smiled.
‘Maybe I’m already doing my part on the news. ’
He reaches out to the remote control as he rolls over the bed.
And then I was on multiple channels.
[.. I’m at the scene of a catastrophic epidemic.]
In the vicinity of a deterrent built by soldiers.
I noticed the reporter running the broadcast.
[As you can see, the city is devastated, and the number of victims is not even being accurately counted.]
[.. but one thing is certain is that disaster has vanished, and the Awakener who has vanished has obtained information called the Bone Dragon, the Awakener of Identity. The Awakened Bone Dragon…]
Tic
Push the remote to turn the channel.
[Disaster, death of the entire body is officially confirmed. More info..]
Tic
[The Pentagon will do everything in its power to calm things down.]
Tic
[The reason for the Imperial Clan’s clan’s personality is becoming a big topic by specifying Kim Jae-ho’s personality today.]
“Oh…”
He stopped pressing the button and watched the screen.
[Kim Jae-ho who chose murder to escape. Why did he make that choice? Let’s take a look at that video for now.]
On TV, there was a video of Kim Jae-ho suddenly attacking me.
I couldn’t hear the conversation, whether it was taken from a distance.
However.
[The disaster was the golden armor Kim Jae-ho was wearing. And the Bone Dragon succeeded in destroying the armor.]
Then came the interview scenes of Reana.
She was explaining the situation in detail at the time.
[Since the Bone Dragon eradicated the catastrophe, I thought everything would go smoothly. But it wasn’t Jae-ho Kim. He just attacked us. Why? You didn’t want to take responsibility for it. He…]
Soon after the interview video of Reason.
[In this interview of the Imperial Clan, questions are being raised about the trajectory of the whole body.]
How come there is no Awakener with Kim Jae-ho?
Maybe he committed murder in a transitional space, etc.
News leaked about Kim Jae-ho’s alleged gait.
‘This is it.’
A smile on your face.
When you destroyed the Golden Armor.
He didn’t immediately retrieve his Great Sword, and that’s why he arranged for an attack.
It was all for this moment.
“Unfortunate hero”? Don’t be ridiculous. ‘
Kim Jae-ho went to subdue the dungeon and became a disaster.
The result was a lot of damage and casualties.
‘Kim Jae-ho was the one who handled the media more heavily. ’
Somehow, it was a natural order.
than dealing with the deaths of ordinary people.
It would have been better to use the issue that Kim Jae-ho failed to attack the dungeon.
And if he hadn’t taken that attitude for a reason or in front of you…
He is the most powerful Awakener who failed to attack the dungeon and became a monster.
It would have been in the press as a wake-up call.
But that didn’t happen because of the interview.
‘Because Yu-na directly discussed Kim Jae-ho’s personality. ’
The celebrity’s words are just as powerful as mine.
Most of all, the dead can’t argue with what she said.
Tic
Turn the channel again with a satisfactory smile.
‘It’s… it’s all good…’
He soon tastes magnificent.
‘My name doesn’t come up. ’
Gravity on any channel.
Disaster extinction, unknown Awakener, Bone Dragon.
‘I thought I dealt with a lot of monsters. Not enough? Hmm…’
Somehow, it was a natural order.
No matter how many monsters you catch.
I can’t just kill Jae-ho Kim.
‘But I’ve branded the Awakenings in the field… Well, there will always be another chance to remember my name. More than that… ”
Help me up out of bed.
‘I don’t know what happened to the consciousness, by the way. When he’s done, he’s…
He recalls the daily reward he received the day before.
Zec
A forest full of rotting trees on dry ground.
“Mother of the Earth! ”
“Please grant me a new life here! ”
In the forest, the animals’ hides are gathered together.
I cried out in the sky because my throat was torn.
Woong
Maybe it’s his fault.
Blue energy flows from their bodies.
Infiltrates the surrounding round circle.
“ · · · ”
“In a few moments…
Maron was watching the druids’ rituals with a solemn look.
He looks up at the sky with his fists clenched.
“Mother, the new dean of the Academy has become Rachel. She wanted me to take over, but I’m fine. I’m going to do my job in my place. ’
Even if he’s not around right now because of the worsening illness.
Verona was still alive in his heart.
Maron is still trying to picture her face clearly.
“Maron.”
Teacher, on Lacan’s call, Maron slowly turns his head.
“Yes, Master. ”
“.. the consciousness has not yet begun. You can be bitten any time now. Although slow, the world is definitely moving forward. You don’t have to put your life on the line. ”
“ · · · ”
Unlike the teacher’s hard voice, he had a light smile.
Lacan used to like to talk with his fists rather than words.
I never thought I’d see him talk so much.
“Master, I’m fine. I don’t want to give up consciousness. ”
“Maron…”
I was about to tell you what Lacan was gonna say.
Maron continues to talk.
“As of today, I’m truly going to be on top of my magic. And we will still cleanse this world of sin. ”
Lacan looks at him with a rather wicked voice.
“Verona would be happy with you.”
“I will not deny that Mother’s death has been a decisive trigger. But that’s not the only reason. ”
Maron continues to speak decisively.
“Many wizards and engineers died until the Black Earth was completely cleansed. ”
“.. it was a necessary sacrifice to move forward. ”
There won’t be a better end if no one dies.
‘And the value of your life is so high that it is hard to compare with others. ’
A racan who struggles to swallow his insides.
In fact, wizards and engineers have succeeded in purifying the Black Earth.
If it hadn’t been for Marron in the middle.
‘I can’t even fathom how long it’s been. ’
Where is the bay?
Starting with the Black Earth.
“and cleansed the land of the soul. ’
A natural ability to resist magic.
Maron harnesses the power of the Antimage and the power of the Druid.
I’ve erased the two wounds my crimes left on the continent.
“Now there’s only one place left…”
Contaminated forests where they currently reside.
Just an endless tower and the home of the dead.
‘If we go a little slower, we’ll be able to clean everything up… Maron… Why so soon…’
What in God’s name made him so rash?
You’re willing to risk your own life to proceed with consciousness.
“Even small seeds need to be fed by nature to bud. Natural nutrition also comes from the death of someone. Sacrifice is also just part of nature’s broad rationale. ”
“My life is also only part of the broader meaning of Tang Khan. In a broad sense, that would include my life. ”
“ · · · ”
Against Maron, Racan is silent.
“Master. Sacrifice isn’t the only thing that drove me to move. I traveled around many survivors while purifying the Black Earth. And…”
After a short time of silence, he slowly takes off his lips.
“I’ve seen so much. from the Academy’s pupils being consumed by my power, to the engineers and wizards arguing over my interests. ”
“ · · · ”
“Teacher, you asked me that question before. Rule over the magic, be invincible to anyone. ”
A silent nod from Lacan.
“I thought I had become one. But that was my arrogance. I… I… I was a weak man who couldn’t even protect my mother. ”
“It’s not your fault! It was those who turned the fragments of sin into a disease. You didn’t do anything wrong! ”
There are those who did wrong in the first place.
Why would he feel guilty?
“It’s my fault I couldn’t stop it, even if it wasn’t my fault. ”
Maron continues to speak in rhetoric.
“Also… I don’t know when the disease will spread across the continent, as long as they figure out how to use new fragments.” ”
“ · · · ”
According to Maron, Racan is silent again.
As Marron said, the disease had already spread and the number of survivors was increasing.
Besides, we haven’t even come up with a cure yet.
The most practical thing is to eliminate all the fragments of sin.
That was probably why he wanted to proceed with the ritual while risking my life.
“Teacher, I will truly rule over magic with this ritual. I’m going to present a new reference point to a world where magic is everything. ”
Maron gazes at the vast force of nature gathered in the Circle.
Keep talking.
“My father wanted to control his magic with his magic to prevent the appearance of the five deadliest criminals, but the future will eventually be repeated as long as there is magic in the world. ”
Of course, he had no intention of discouraging Akma’s accomplishments and his virtuous intentions.
I just wanted to present a new reference point to the world in a different way than Archma.
The result was the current ritual.
“I will control magic and the world in my own way. Even if it cost me my life. ”
“ · · · ”
In the words of a disciple with a firm conviction, Racan can’t see his eyes.
Remove lips with deep pressure on bear hide.
“.. will soon be ready for the ritual. Sit down.”
Maron nods.
“Please take good care of it. ”
Keeping eye contact with the druids preparing for the ritual.
I was about to enter the circle.
(Whimpering)
Chocolate looks up at him pitifully.
“I’m sorry, chocolate. But this is the path I chose. I don’t know what Tang Khan will think, but at least I have no regrets about my choices. No, maybe this is the way Tang Khan meant it. ”
[grunting]
Chocolate keeps grunting.
He smiles faintly.
“You, the Lion of Tang Khan, may not know, it’s okay. And, Chocolate, thanks for sticking with me the whole time. I wouldn’t be here if it wasn’t for you. Thank you.
With a smile on his face, he turns away.
[Whirring, whirring]
Chocolate tried to stop him in tears.
Maron’s steps were straightforward.
Soon he enters the circle.
Woong
“ · · · ”
Maybe it’s the vast force of nature gathered in the gin.
A strong repulsive force grips his ankle.
Overwhelmed
But one step at a time.
Maron has reached the center of the circle.
“Phew.”
He sits down, exhaling.
Let’s do it.
“Ancestors! Look down upon us! ”
“Grant me the power to embrace nature! ”
Along with a shout from the druids’ mouths surrounding the circle.
The vast force of nature began to envelop Marron’s body.
“ · · · ”
At the end of the ceremony, he looks up at the sky.
‘From this day forward, I will be the one who stands on top of the power of magic. No, become the dominant. And bring true peace to this world! ’
And, uh…
‘The peace my mother really wanted… The peace she so desperately wanted… I will make it appear to be my hands. ’
For my dead mother.
For the future of more sisters with days to live.
For the future of Rachel, who is now his lover.
“You must succeed in this ritual! ’
Shhhhh!
Suddenly, there was a white and blue aura around Maron’s body.
It got tangled up like a thread.
“Maron…”
Racan was moaning as he watched.
‘Yesterday’s daily reward was that. At least I wish I could have seen it afterwards… ”
I wondered what would happen to him afterwards.
Besides, Verona…
A helping hand with a bitter smile.
She’s a woman who’s been in touch with two warriors, so it might be more heartfelt.
“Phew.”
Despite the enormous amount of natural power gained from daily rewards.
I don’t feel very comfortable.
‘.. I’m sorry, but I did my best. ’
A moment of silence for Verona.
Soon he opened his eyes slowly.
‘Let’s take a look at the Great Sword…’
JooJoon took out the Black Dagger Kim Jae-ho used in the subspace.
I put it on the floor.
‘I couldn’t confirm because the schedule was so twisted… Now we have some room. Let’s check it out. ’
Kim Jae-ho wanted me to do that.
A sword that saved my life.
“I wonder what he’s capable of, strangling him like that.”
When JooJoon slowly reached for the Great Sword.
The warrior Maron is dead.
Warrior Maron’s total accomplishments are given a comprehensive and comprehensive reward.
Would you like to receive the consolidated compensation?
Suddenly, a comprehensive reward message appeared before him.
“ · · · ”
He stopped reaching and looked at the message quietly.
I always knew this day would come.
I didn’t expect a comprehensive reward message so soon.
Is it the ritual, too?
Whenever I see a comprehensive compensation message.
I feel like my chest is sore.
‘But I… have a duty to see the last of the warriors. ’
He was the one who personally chose and changed the life of the warrior through mentors and objects.
Besides, especially not Maron.
Maybe because I saw him when he was a kid.
I even felt like a child.
He turns his hand to the sword and reaches for the message.
End
