171. king and tyrant
The shaman of time is alive.
Actually, I wondered if that was possible.
I clearly cut her down, and finished the confirmation kill as well.
In addition, I was even told that the royal family would completely burn her corpse.
‘You survived by turning back time?’
Since she can stop time, of course, thoughts flowed in that direction, but she shook her head.
I don’t have all the memories that the Maiden of Time has, but no matter how much she is, she can’t perform such an absurd miracle.
“I’ll have to go there first.”
If you think about it here, there is no answer. In the end, a problem you have to go and face and check for yourself.
The Great Witch, who was staring at me as I was pondering various things, asked carefully.
“Where is the earliest end now?”
“Lin. The child’s name is Lynn. It’s not that kind of adjective.”
She probably doesn’t know that the things the Great Witch has been saying for a long time are secretly going against my nerves.
The Archwitch asked again, correcting her sorry.
“So, where is the kid named Rin?”
“You know what to do with it.”
When he said it out loud, the Archwitch openly frowned, saying that he couldn’t stand it anymore.
“Are you aware that what you are doing is endangering the entire continent? You don’t know what kind of threat she is because she’s simply a legend in the book.”
“under.”
Unbeknownst to me, ridicule flowed out. I don’t know about the apocalypse?
“Nobody knows more about the dangers of the apocalypse than I do.”
Saying that, he turned around.
I don’t intend to waste time like this. I was thinking of going to Sharkal right away.
“me too……”
In a locked voice, Hayun tries to open her mouth. I thought I lost my mind, but I just woke up. I immediately walked over to Hayun’s bed.
She slowly reached out and grabbed my wrist. The love bracelet she gave her overlaps and gets caught.
“I will go too.”
“Dangerous. Looking at your condition now, it’s hard to move.”
“No, it’s okay now. So I will go too.”
“…I can’t protect you from fighting Shar’kal. If you come to Kulika there, it becomes really dangerous.”
“Even so, I can’t back down, Daniel.”
Ha-yoon got up from the bed slowly removing the blanket. Her body staggered for a moment, but her eyes were still stronger than ever.
“I abandoned the name of the Ren family, and I hate my uncle so much that I want to kill him. But that didn’t mean I wanted the family to perish completely. There are memories of my parents there too.”
“……”
“Perhaps I will bear the Ren family name again. Because I’m the only bloodline left. That’s why I need to check the whole truth.”
I know she won’t back down. I knew that if I left it here, she would go alone.
“Whoa, okay.”
In the end, I had no choice but to give up. Hayoon’s expression brightens noticeably. Just then, a witch came in from outside.
She brought a tea set and tea cups on a round wooden tray, and a strange smell spread through the room in an instant, as if the tea had already been brewed.
After receiving it, the archwitch handed the tea cup to Ha-yun.
“If you drink this, you will be able to adapt to the air here a little easier.”
“thank you.”
Was there anything like that?
It looked hot, but Ha-yun sipped tactfully and drank all the tea. In fact, her expression brightened noticeably and she looked around her body in surprise.
“I really feel lighter. awesome.”
“that’s interesting.”
It was a car I didn’t even know about. I think the witches made it on their own, but it would have been easier to work if they had provided such a car to their customers when they were sherpa in the past.
“Hey, do you have to pay for tea?”
“her?”
Who is this old-fashioned old lady?
Will you give me a favor and get paid?
Ha-yun had a firm expression on her face, and it was clear that I was annoyed too, but there was no change in her expression because of her age, which was thick like wrinkles.
“I will go with you.”
“Are you together?”
“Okay, starting with the fight between Kulika and Sharkal this time, I’ll have to check what’s going on in the Demon Realm Forest.”
“Hmm.”
Frankly, the means themselves felt bad, but the requirements weren’t too bad. Rather, Hayun and I are weak in terms of magic, but if the Great Witch participates, that part will be supplemented.
“Okay, that’s not a bad offer. However, protect her by Hayun’s side. I don’t even want to kill the beasts, but I can do that.”
“okay. It’s not too demanding.”
that is great.
If Ha-yun is in danger, the last means to protect her has been created. If this is the case, I will be able to fight without difficulty.
“I will go too!”
“Stay still.”
Adrina jumped up and shouted, but with a single gesture of the Great Witch, she was crushed by an invisible hand, and she lay down on the bed.
“Are you trying to move around without getting better?”
The appearance of the great witch who was genuinely worried about Adrina was a little strange but refreshing.
“Do you really like Adrina?”
On the surface, it seemed like he didn’t really care what happened to the other witches except himself.
Then the Great Witch opened her eyes slightly and looked at me, then turned and went out of the hospital room.
“It’s a lumber that will become a great witch after me, so of course, shouldn’t it be nurtured well?”
Is Adrina the Great Witch?
I was surprised at first, but after thinking about it for a while, I understand. With talent like hers, it might take some time, but I’m sure I can aim for the position of Archwitch.
After briefly saying hello to Adrina, who was a little embarrassed by the word archwitch, Hayoon and I went outside.
The Archwitch has already finished preparing to go out with the wand brought by the other witches. Hayoon and I didn’t have luggage, so we left the village right away.
With me, who was a Sherpa, and the Archwitch, in fact, walking in the forest of the Demon Realm has now become a walk.
Of course, because of the bizarre plants and monsters, Hayoon often frowned, but that couldn’t be helped. Originally, this is where it is.
“Hmm, we’ve come quite a bit, but there’s still a long way to reach where Sharcal is.”
“Huh. Huh Eok. okay.”
Hayoon wipes away sweat. Of course, I understand because it was a place where you could not help but be exhausted simply by walking.
‘Is it because I’m not the Archwitch?’
The Archwitch, who was strengthening her body through mana, did not shed a single drop of sweat, and did not even lose her breath.
Seeing this, I feel a little unfair to the magicians who handle mana.
Some people train their bodies diligently, but they can use magic while strengthening their bodies for a wide range of purposes.
But as soon as my complaints come to mind, the mana around me fluctuates. Even if we couldn’t see them, the ancient beasts who were secretly guarding us nearby started to leave one by one.
The Great Witch leans against her wand and struggles to straighten her body.
“This……?”
“Mana is twisted.”
The mana covering the forest of the demon world begins to twist, shake, and mutate. It was spreading like a plague at the master’s pace.
“Sharkal came all the way here?”
It still takes quite a while to reach Sharkal’s territory. But why did it come here?
The answer came from the other side of Sharkal’s mana.
Aww!
Kulika’s cry announcing the battle signal. The cave he lived in was quite far from here, but the two monsters had come all the way to each other.
“It looks like Sharqal and Coolika are going to fight properly?”
“Hmm, this is a bit dangerous.”
The Archwitch also agreed with my words and took a step back. The reason why the Archwitch came despite not being able to use mana was because she was qualified to talk to Sharqal.
However, he was implicitly making it known that he had no intention of engaging in combat action.
“For now, I’m here with the Archwitch. I’ll come and see the situation.”
“…Okay, be careful.”
Ha-yoon, who clearly noticed that she shouldn’t interfere now, tightly gripped the hilt of her sword and began to be wary of her surroundings.
Leaving the two behind, I headed to the place where I felt the energy of Sharqal and Coolika.
It’s a pretty rough place with rocks forming a mountain.
Originally, it was a place where the giant centipedes lived between the rocks, but it was invisible because of the reign of the two kings.
“Sharkar! Why do you want to turn your back on the world! The disaster sent by the gods has arrived in Jicheon! Are you saying you just let the woman who points to death!”
“That is of no importance to me.”
Despite Kulika’s cry, Sharqal waved his hand, saying he was not interested at all.
“The fact that you protect the arms of the gods, that you are with a priestess that serves the gods, and that you invaded the territory of the principal seat but did not go after seeing the end. It doesn’t matter.”
thud!
Sharqal’s staff slams the floor.
A silver flash within the skull glared at Kulika fiercely.
“However, it’s different when you’re being dragged around by the ‘weak’. It has nothing to do with me at all for the sake of the cause.”
There was only one reason why Sharqal was angry and came to kill Kulika.
Even though they are strong, they are not strong.
Through the memories of Haven Ren, Sharkal learned about the Maiden of Time. His magic wasn’t very good except for attacks, so it was part of that.
So Sharkal came to kill Kulika.
Because I couldn’t see the person who was being dragged by the weak, the shaman of time, as the king who sat in the highest place in the forest of the demon realm.
“Come down from your throne, Kulika.”
