Episode 103. bright dark
[Your level has risen. (42 → 50)]
[All biological resources have been recovered.]
[All skill cooldowns have been reset.]
[All stats have increased significantly.]
[The proficiency of all runes has increased significantly.]
[Spirit consumption of all runes is greatly reduced.]
[Your Mastery of the Turisaj Rune has reached maximum.]
[The basic activation effect of the rune is changed to a permanent effect.]
“Permanent?”
Aaron, who was frantically reading the message that came to mind, opened his eyes wide.
The rune language exerts out-of-standard performance just by wearing it, consuming a lot of resources and having a short duration each time it is used.
There was no rune-related passive skill in the game, but to change the rune effect itself into a passive.
Apparently, the hidden job of Rune Master made this possible.
“where.”
Aaron held the stone that was rolling under his feet in his hand.
pood deuk-
The stones, which seemed hard even at first glance, were easily crumbled as if they were made of sand.
“hehehe.”
He pursed his lips and let out a laugh.
Breaking stones with bare hands is possible for large monsters such as trolls and ogres, or for humans who have inherited the blood of ancient giants.
If he had this power, he would be able to perfectly use the twilight swordsmanship without wasting his mental energy or suffering any aftereffects.
“Oh right.”
Aaron, who had been staring at the empty space for a while, changed his expression as if he remembered something.
He roughly brushed off the stone dust from his gauntlets and approached Azazel’s dead body.
hooked! hooked!
Then he started digging up the dead body’s chest.
“Aaron?”
“Isn’t he already dead?”
The party enjoying the joy with the Dark Elves tilted their heads at Aaron’s eccentricity.
‘I’m sure he’ll be here somewhere.’
Aaron let the party’s words go through one ear and continued to rummage through his chest.
It didn’t feel too good to dig through the foul-smelling tissue, but he didn’t stop searching.
‘found.’
After a while, while rummaging around the heart, I finally caught something hard on my fingertips.
Aaron grabbed it and pulled it out with all his might.
“What is it?”
Raast, who was watching Aaron carefully, frowned.
What he pulled out was something elongated, smeared with foul-smelling biological tissue.
“this? Vilpierra.”
“yes?”
Raast put on a dumbfounded expression at the passing light reply.
Aaron wiped the thing in his hand and rubbed it on the floor.
As the filth fell off, the shape of the object gradually began to appear.
It was a white sword with the waist cut off.
In the middle of the sword body, an ancient language similar to that engraved on Rhaast’s sword was written.
[The battle is in everyone’s name… … .]
[When we are one, we… … .]
The phrase written one sentence on the front and back could not be connected to the end because the sword body was cut in half.
‘The battle will be done in everyone’s name.’
From noble mtl dot com
‘We are strong when we are one.’
Aaron recited the completed sentence to himself.
These are the words that Oberyn inscribed herself right after she lost her family.
His memory, which was deep in his heart, reminded him of his emotions at the time he wrote these words.
“Lord. no way… Isn’t it?”
Raast asked in a trembling voice.
As far as he knew, there was only one sword in the world named Vilpierra.
“Vilpierra is kept in the Hall of Heroes of the Imperial Empire, right? Is this a fake or something?”
After Oberyn’s death, his iconic armor and sword returned to the continent.
The armor was given to Count Arnin, the manager of Death Landing.
And to the Hall of Heroes built in the Ecliptic of the Black Empire.
Apophis was managed by the individual count, so it was not possible to see it without permission.
“no. this is genuine The ones in the ecliptic are imitations.”
Aaron shook his head.
When the descendants of Oberin searched for him, Vilpierra had disappeared.
The imperial family released people all over Death Landing to find the whereabouts of Vilpierra, but they ended up failing because they only took the lives of soldiers for no reason.
It was natural.
Because the catalyst Azazel used to resurrect was Vilpierra.
“You say this was the catalyst?”
“okay. As soon as Oberyn died, this guy had his minions take the sword. That’s why descendants could never find it.”
“… … her.”
Rhaast let out a sigh as he saw the sword cut into pieces.
“Then, did the imperial family leave counterfeits in the Hall of Heroes even after knowing that?”
“What would happen if the imperial family directly stepped forward and ordered us to find Villepierra, but in the end they couldn’t find it? It’s nothing else, it’s Oberyn’s sword.”
On the continent, Oberyn is not just a hero for knights, but a hero for everyone.
If he couldn’t find his sword, it would be obvious that the status of the imperial family would fall to the ground, so he made at least a counterfeit and displayed it.
“The knights who took the oath of glory to Vilpierra will roll their eyes when they hear it.”
It is a rite of passage that has been going on for hundreds of years for a newly appointed knight to find Oberyn’s sword.
Even Raast, who didn’t like ostentation, went to visit Vilpiera, but when he heard that it was an imitation, his whole body lost all his strength.
“Did you also pledge there?”
“no. I just went and watched it, but I didn’t make an oath. I don’t think it makes much sense.”
“Good. Then make a promise here. Even though it’s cut in half, the real thing is real.”
“… … All right.”
Rhaast laughed at the trivial joke and waved his hand.
[The sword of balance resonates with the light darkness.]
It was then. A short message appeared before my eyes, and the dismembered Vilpierra was engulfed in light.
Vilpierra, who was all white, distorted in an instant and was sucked into the sheath of the cosmos as a glow like a firefly.
“… … .”
Aaron and Rhaast. And even Nesty, who was next to her, opened her mouth wide, speechless.
I checked several times to see if I had seen it wrong, but the billiera in Aaron’s hand was nowhere to be found.
[The bright darkness felt the difference in rank and took refuge in the flow of balance.]
[The information of Cosmos has been updated.]
＜Bright Darkness, Cosmos＞
– A sword of balance that inherited the will of Oberin’s beloved sword, Vilpierra.
– When equipped, all additional skills of the Twilight Sword can be used.
– The resources required for the additional skill of Twilight Sword are fixed to the minimum.
As soon as the light sucked into the cosmos disappeared, a new message came to mind.
“Lord… what the heck is this… … .”
After a while, Rhaast stuttered and opened his mouth.
seureung-
Aaron calmed his pounding heart and pulled out the cosmos from the scabbard.
[The battle will be fought in everyone’s name.]
[We are strong when we are one.]
The complete text that had been engraved on Vilpierra was engraved on Cosmos’s blade.
“oh my god.”
“… … Hiccup!”
Nesty let out a low exclamation and Raast started to hiccup.
‘crazy.’
Aaron was surprised as well.
Vilpierra, which was used as Azazel’s catalyst, was already contaminated with demonic energy and had no value as a sword.
Originally, it was used to burn Oberin’s birthplace and summon the ascended soul.
According to the plan, they were supposed to sign a contract with the summoned soul and receive the hero’s blessing, but Cosmos absorbed it and things got strangely twisted.
“They are coming.”
Suddenly Nesty shuddered and said,
Aaron twitched his eyebrows.
“What?”
“Lord Oberyn.”
She continued with her hazy eyes, as if possessed by something.
Apparently, her hero, Ariel, gave her something.
After a while, blue light gathered in the air and created a translucent human figure.
[-Amazing.]
As soon as he appeared, he opened his mouth without a greeting.
The man’s true identity is Oberyn. It was the old owner of Vilpierra, who had just disappeared.
He was the same as he had been at his birthplace a while ago.
If there’s one thing that has changed, it’s that my face has gotten much better than before.
With the help of Aaron, his soul became enlightened, and he even completed his revenge by killing Azazel, so he couldn’t help but feel bad.
‘Did you come to know that Villefiera disappeared?’
Aaron was nervous inside.
In the game, Oberin won’t come back no matter what he does if he doesn’t retrieve Vilpierra after he ascends to heaven.
Cosmos absorbed it, so I thought the blessing was gone, but I was a little embarrassed to find it on my own.
“What is surprising?”
Aaron put the iron plate on his face and asked again.
Nesty and Raast still couldn’t manage their expressions, but they didn’t care.
Whether to absorb the recovered Vilpierra or melt it down and sell it is Aaron’s discretion.
Oberyn had no right to question it.
[-Didn’t my sword choose you on its own?]
Contrary to my worries, however, Oberyn’s attitude was friendly.
Even if he wasn’t angry, I thought he would show off his displeasure, but he was talking with a happy smile.
“Vilpierra is… You chose me?”
[-okay. You have now surpassed my level. My sword doesn’t even know that.]
Oberyn looked at Cosmos with eyes full of emotion.
a thousand years ago. He remained alone in Death Landing after the other heroes went on vacation, trying to erase Azazel’s traces.
But the results were not good.
His soul was buried in the basement of his birthplace, buried with guilt for not fulfilling his mission, and his beloved sword was stolen by Azazel’s servants and used as a catalyst for resurrection today.
An unlucky hero who saved the continent from the hands of the devil but couldn’t save his family and himself.
Aaron neatly untied the knot that he had not been able to untie until his death.
[-Thank you. Thank you very much.]
Oberyn said softly and looked around.
His old hometown was slowly finding light after casting off the darkness of a thousand years.
“… … .”
Aaron, Raast, Nesti, and the Dark Elves.
Everyone around him watched him in silence.
Silence in joy.
His overwhelming emotions were conveyed without any words or expressions.
[-Vilpierra’s choice is my choice.]
Oberyn, who had been immersed in sentimentality for a long time, opened his mouth slowly.
Aaron waited silently for his next words.
dump-
The next moment, Oberyn got down on one knee in front of Aaron.
[-I, the jet-dark knight, Oberin, intend to give my allegiance to the holy hero who untied the thousand-year knot.]
“… … !”
Everyone who watched him opened their mouths as if they had promised.
From the moment he first became a knight until his death, Oberyn lived as a free knight who did not serve anyone.
It was because of the firm conviction that a knight who could not protect his hometown could not protect others.
But now, after a thousand years, he has shattered his convictions himself.
To think that Oberyn, who is no one else, would swear allegiance to a boy who hadn’t even had a coming-of-age ceremony yet.
Although it is a spiritual body that will ascend again, no one can doubt the sincerity contained in it.
“Oberyn. you… … .”
Nesty called out to Oberyn in a trembling voice.
Shocked so much, Ariel hurriedly borrowed her mouth.
[-Do not disturb the sacred ceremony. Ariel.]
Oberyn glared at Ariel with a ferocious face he had never seen before.
Ariel looked at him with a confused look on her face before handing control back to Nesty.
gulp-
Raast swallowed dry saliva and looked at Aaron.
Unlike the others who were greatly agitated, his expression was perfectly calm.
Attitude as if he knew this was going to happen.
Soon, his mouth opened.
“I, Aaron Oddhaken, first son of the Blue Fox, accept Oberyn Ragnok, the universal hero, as my eternal companion.”
Only I am immune to magic
