Episode 121
‘Then it’s a bit heavy at the current level.’
As it was a technique developed by the ancestor of the Cheongga, Cheongun, Myeongwol boasted a considerable degree of difficulty even within the high-level techniques.
On the other hand, I didn’t even have a few advanced techniques that I could use yet, and frankly, I wasn’t confident.
‘… No, is it possible now?’
Come to think of it, the energy that has not yet melted away from the effects of taking Guryonghwan is floating around in my body.
If you use this state well, you might be able to develop even a spell that was difficult to use in the first place.
After looking at the estimate for a while, I decided that there was a good chance and shifted my gaze to Hwang Ji-hak, who was beside me.
‘… … .’
I used to find the key to unlock the secret, but is it okay to put it into practice right now?
This is the district of the Huang (黃) family and the secret place passed down to them.
‘It seems to be true that it has been completely forgotten in modern times, but… … .’
If it is known to them that they have found something in the poison coffin, they may end up poised for a dog.
I opened my mouth to Hwang Ji-hak, organizing various possibilities in my head.
“Would you mind revealing the secrets of this place?”
“… … .”
Hwang Ji-hak, who was slightly agitated by those words, eventually realized the meaning of the words and nodded softly.
“If there is a problem, I will look after you.”
Hwang Ji-hak has a strong foundation in his own family, including his own supporters.
With that help, it will certainly not be difficult to post-processing.
Having obtained my unspoken consent, without hesitation, I borrowed the power contained in the Bari-Jade Ring and the power of the soul-white burning characteristic to explosively boost my spiritual power.
Whoo,
“Buam Toe Mountain (腐暗退散), Gongcheongjugwang (空淸呪曠), Hwasu Susanfever (化粹留産洌).”
As the mantra was spelled out, several magic engravings were engraved in the air to form the form of the rite.
Compared to modern witchcraft, it is a little more irregular, and a shape that is closer to a primitive form.
The strong energy emanating from there disturbed my spiritual power.
“… Whoa.”
I thought it would not be easy, but it was more than I expected. It was quite difficult to control the magic because I used the energy of Gu Ryong-hwan, who was not yet mine.
However, it somehow took shape.
After all, I was aiming for a simple activation rather than an elaborate use anyway, so I poured my energy without hesitation and completed the procedure.
Whoops!
Whoa!
“Myeong Moon.”
Wow-!
At the same time as the last signing, a clear blue light disturbed my vision.
The pure yang energy created by transforming life energy, it was radiating brilliance.
And, as if my prediction was not wrong, a response came soon after.
coo coo.
blatantly.
Inside the tube of poison that had faded from light, there was a space in a part of it that was barely large enough for an arm to fit in.
It is a space that is exactly the same as the direction indicated by the former ambassador.
And there, there was a perfect darkness that could never be observed by human eyes.
The true form of the coffin of Dokeum was revealed.
“… There really was something. This is surprising. How the hell did you uncover the secret?”
“Because it’s been like this since a long time ago.”
“It’s not going to be explained like that. Didn’t even the elders of the family conclude that the story was a lie in the end?”
yes it will be If it’s made like this, who the hell can find a way around here?
The founder of the imperial family is at a level where only the name and appearance are revealed in the series, so the personality is unknown, but it was clear that he was a person who did not think much about the future.
‘No, maybe someday there will be a talented person who can solve the mystery.’
However, at least it would not have been a person of this time.
It seemed like it would be possible on her own if she grew up with an EX skill rank, but she was not affiliated with the imperial family in the first place, so it was right to leave it out of the discussion.
“… Also, you are special. We have something different from others.”
“It’s overrated. It’s just that things are going well.”
Anyway, now that we’ve found the hidden space, it’s time to check it out.
We took our seats in front of a hole without a single light, and after thinking for a while, we looked at each other with dazed expressions.
“I think you should put your arm there.”
“It looks that way to my eyes.”
A truly vicious way to instigate fear in the sufferer.
Hwang Ji-hak took a step back and said to me.
“It’s not like I’m going to go out, just watching.”
That’s definitely true. If it wasn’t for the person who unlocked the secret in the first place, I didn’t know it was structured so that it wouldn’t respond.
Ignoring the slightest apprehension, I went to the front of the hole and put my arm into the darkness.
whoops.
turuk.
tik.
Contrary to what I was worried about, there was nothing special about it.
What I found inside was an amulet full of traces of witchcraft and an unidentified orange stone.
’emotion.’
Tiling!
【Government of Government】
▶ A special amulet made to contain knowledge. Inside, the knowledge selected by the exorcist Hwang Hui (黃輝) is recorded.
‘If it’s Hwanghui (黃輝), obviously… … .’
The name for the founder of the imperial family was correct. After thinking for a while, I handed it over to Hwang Ji-hak.
“… Are you giving it to me?”
“It seems like it contains knowledge related to the imperial family.”
Anyway, I also know most of the royal family’s unique techniques. It would be much more helpful to hand it over to Hwang Ji-hak, as it is a meaningless item to me.
And the moment I shifted my gaze to another object, I had to face an unbelievable sight.
【Chuhon Stone】
▶A stone that contains the soul of the exorcist Hwang Hui (黃輝). When you activate the inherent magic, you can summon the soul of Hwang Hui (黃輝) and make it take root in the target body.
– It can only be used on the body that has recently left the soul.
To be honest, it was completely unexpected.
No, what the hell did the creator of the Highborne do?
‘The magic of moving souls is like a taboo among taboos.’
When you see that your soul is completely contained in this way, it is hard to think that someone else has forced you to do it.
In other words, Hwang Hwi, the founder of the imperial family, for some reason put his soul in this stone and hid it in a coffin of poison.
“What is that jewel?”
“… It looks like a jug that amplifies spiritual power, can I have this?”
“Does not matter. It wasn’t something I got in the first place, was it?”
It was something that could not be put into someone else’s hands, so I asked Hwang Ji-hak for his understanding and immediately put the main soul stone in my arms.
So, we accomplished our purpose and came out of the tube of poison.
***
“… … .”
Hwang Ji-hak, a sophomore at the Cheonghwa Academy and said to be the hopeful of the imperial family, fell into deep thought, recalling what had just happened a few hours ago.
‘As expected, Han Kang-yoon… … .’
If you think about it, it was like that before. There was something that other people couldn’t find.
Therefore, Hwang Ji-hak did not worry too much even when Han Kang-yoon was in a slump, and he did not doubt that he would overcome it again.
Eventually, that belief became a reality.
‘If that’s the case, I’m sure you’ll be able to unravel the secrets there.’
Even now, in fact, Hwang Ji-hak believed that there was something secret in the coffin of poison, unlike the rest of the family.
It was thanks to his half-brother, Hwang Jae-hyuk, who is now five years apart, whose whereabouts are unknown.
Hwang Ji-hak came out of the room and sat on the eaves, quietly recalling his memories with him.
[Why do you always go there? I heard that it has been a long time since it was identified as a false rumor that has no form.]
[If that’s the case, then their words are the same. Ji Hak-ah. As I have said many times, a shaman should always judge the situation for himself.]
[…] … .]
[The elders didn’t seem to notice, but I definitely felt it. A quiet wave felt inside. It was definitely calling me.]
Hwang Jae-hyeok, who had been passionate about researching the tube of poison for a while, said that he could not unravel the secret at the current level, and said that he would challenge it again after someday when he grew up.
However, Hwang Jae-hyuk disappeared from the mission four years later.
And it still hasn’t come back.
‘… … .’
Everyone in the family, including his father, Hwang Jeong-wook, said he would have died, but Hwang Ji-hak believed in his own judgment this time.
Hwang Jae-hyuk is definitely alive, and the day will come when we will meet face to face again.
With that thought in mind, Hwang Ji-hak took out a special type of amulet that Han Kang-yoon had given him, and breathed spiritual power into it.
Whoops.
‘Certainly, it feels familiar.’
The person who made this must also be a person related to the imperial family, so it may be natural.
Hwang Ji-hak released enough spiritual power as it was, and put the amulet on his forehead.
Then, I felt something bursting into my head.
‘This… … .’
As Han Kang-yun said, knowledge related to the ancient imperial family.
Among them, even the next elder, Hwang Ji-hak, had a ritual that he had never seen before, and also contained information about the history of the family that he had never known before.
And, what was at the end was part of the memory of the person who left this amulet.
[Did you open the Dokeum Cave? First of all, congratulations.]
The subject looked younger than expected, and somehow the way he spoke seemed playful.
[That would be one of the two. Either you are a genius that exceeds this Hwang Hwi’s expectations. Or the true Qing dynasty that he told me.]
It was a very strange word. Apparently, it is said that the person who left this was the ancestor of the imperial family, but his memory mentions the descendants of the Qing family for some reason.
Hwang Ji-hak was agitated, but he continued to read the memory.
[Anyway, I did my job with this. I don’t know what happens after this. I will leave it to your judgment as to when to use the Juhonseok (駐魂石).]
parsak.
The contents of the memory were there. And Hwang Ji-hak was able to realize various facts by looking back on all the memories the man left behind.
“… Is that so, the Hwang family and the Baek family were all one in the beginning?”
It was a truth I had never heard anywhere else. I have never heard anything similar from the elders of the family.
And, on the other hand, Han Kang-yoon’s attitude, who had been in a hurry to pick up jewelry for some reason, caught my heart.
‘I don’t know for sure, but did you know the identity of the main soul stone?’
The related contents were not included in the Kijeongbu (記情符) either, so Hwang Ji-hak did not know where the Juhonseok was used.
However, that’s why he knew his identity.
‘no way… … .’
The true descendant of the Qing (靑) family mentioned by Hwang Hwi, may be referring to Han Kang-yun.
Hwang Ji-hak, who realized an unexpected secret, closed his eyes for a long time and fell into deep thought.
In fact, while thinking of my close friend, who might be the true descendant of the forces now called the Three Great Masters.
