“Tt… … .”
After the situation was over, Hajun clicked his tongue in annoyance.
It was going to be really bad.
If the time stop had been triggered even a little later, it would have been [GAME OVER] relentlessly.
“Why is this guy here?”
Judging from his appearance, it was clear that ‘Antria’, the king of demonic ants, was evident in the demon realm.
Each beast is classified as a level of danger, but the beast in front of him was a beast that had a risk of at least level 50 and was literally a beast that shouldn’t be here.
If the level is 50 or so, it is a level that can only be defeated by at least two more advanced heroes.
Fortunately, Antria was a young, underdeveloped individual.
If it wasn’t for the curiosity of the young individual, it was obvious that the children, including Liam, would have been killed.
“under… … It would have been a real X.”
Fortunately, it seems that the timing was just right for me to trigger the time stop as soon as I woke up.
It must have been a little late, but it was fortunate that no one died.
“hey. Are you alive?”
Tick- I patted Liam on the cheek.
Fortunately, he seemed to have fainted when he saw that he was breathing.
I checked that Liam was alive and looked around.
As the difficulty of the quest has risen, the number of beasts seems to have risen sharply.
According to the original episode, Liam comes out of this tunnel again after blocking the Witch Wave, but considering the situation, it is understandable that he faints to some extent.
Looking around, the number of monsters in the original story had increased several times.
It was only natural for him to faint because he had been fighting for a long 7 hours, including the number of times the number of beasts had increased.
Well, I’m glad it ended well anyway.
It’s been a battle like this, so I’ll have to check it first, but it’s clear that Liam has grown.
“Well then… … .”
Ha-jun tried to trigger a time stop to prepare to go back.
That was then.
Antria’s corpse suddenly turned to black ashes and disappeared at the same time as a sparkling purple crystal.
The moment he saw it, Lee Chae appeared in Hajun’s eyes.
“no way… … ?”
A dark purple crystal the size of a fist.
If my memory is correct, this must have been ‘Masui Crystal’.
A representative resource that replaces oil in the world in this game.
It is also a crystal with tremendous magical power, given that it is dark in color.
“Not bad.”
A smile began to form on Hajun’s lips.

Mage crystal.
There are many places where it is used as an alchemist’s material, a magician’s magic increase, or as a natural resource to cope with oil, but it’s hard to find a magic crystal with this much magic.
In the market, it will be a good money-making because it is expensive to call according to the quality of the magical power it has.
After thinking about how to use it later, I put the magic crystal in my pocket and turned my attention to the children.
“Then they… … .”
First of all, I have already thought about how to move these four people.
Just like when Liam was moved here, I was going to stop the time and then lift the children to release the stop and take them as if they were holding balloons.
I tried to trigger a time stop to do it that way.
At that time, Pilaten, who had been silent for a while, spoke suddenly.
– Master, there is only one.
“yes? what.”
-I’ll add that guy as one of the trials.
at the same time as those words.

The number of previous quests increased by one.
Seeing the rising number, Ha-jun frowned in annoyance.
‘Sickness… … It’s dirty.’
* * *
two days after that.
Last day of training.
“Here… … .”
Liam, who had been asleep for two days, slowly opened his eyes.
The first thing Liam saw was the unfamiliar ceiling.
Liam grabbed his dizzy head and stood up.
The next thing I saw was a familiar place.
It was definitely the cave where Kim Ha-jun was.
“Are you awake?”
It was Liam who slowly turned his head to the voice of a girl.
Yoo Seol-ah.
She sat calmly, looking at Liam.
“yes? Could it be that you healed me?”
“yes. Well, there wasn’t much to treat. If I said yes, would it be that I slept all day because I was so tired?”
“… … Who is that guy?”
“Are you Ha-jun? It’s probably at the entrance to the cave… … Oh wait! Wait!”
Liam immediately got up and walked towards the entrance of the cave.
For some reason, Seol-ah Yoo was drying her up, but Liam just kept walking.
Soon after, along with the sound of sizzling meat, the smell began to seep into the cave.
And when he arrived at the entrance of the cave, what Liam saw was Kim Ha-jun, who was grilling meat in a bonfire with meat sticking to his Noble Phantasm, a spear.
“uh? did you wake up I borrowed this.”
And it was Hajun who was waving his hand warmly.
Seol-ah Yoo, who could not see it, wiped her face with a bewildered expression.
‘I finally saw it… … .’
To be honest, Yoo Seol-ah was definitely dry.
What human would like to have their Noble Phantasm used as a substitute for meat skewers?
‘That’s why you said no!!’
Seol-ah Yoo had no choice but to cry inside with an unjust expression.
If you look at it this way, doesn’t it seem like you agree with it?
I should have just ignored what Hajun said earlier.
– No, anyway, that’s a bit… … .
– It’s okay, he… … .
– No, it’s okay!
“under… … I should have dried it then.”
Of course, I stopped listening to sophistry that couldn’t even fit into that axis, but I couldn’t break Ha-jun’s stubbornness.
There are no skewers like this around here.
In the end, Yoo Seol-ah was speechless when told to give up even her Noble Phantasm, the rapier, if she didn’t like it.
Seol-ah Yoo slowly turned her head and began to look into Liam’s eyes.
“… … yes?”
“ha ha ha!”
However, when Liam, the party, saw the scene, he started to laugh as if it was funny.
After that, I trudged in the direction of the bonfire and sat right across from Ha-jun.
Liam, who looked at the bonfire with blank eyes for a moment, asked Hajun.
“What about those kids?”
“I sent it back yesterday. I’m doing this because they slaughtered my food.”
Hajun sighed and took a large bite of the meat.
As he was chewing the meat, Liam called out Ha-jun’s name.
“… … Ha-Jun Kim.”
“yes? why?”
“Can I ask you to fight again?”
Did you save me by saying that? I thought
Of course, Ha-jun immediately frowned and looked at Liam.
But Liam’s expression was more calm and serious than ever.
It was unreasonable to spit on a face like that, even for Ha-jun, who had the audacity to spit on a smiling face.
“under… … just give it What kind of fight is it?”
“… … Please.”
Judging by the atmosphere, even if I say no, I think I will push through to the end… … .
“okay. i get it.”
I thought it would be better to beat it neatly.
Ha-jun shoved the meat stuck in the spear into his mouth and handed the spear to Liam.
Liam, who received the spear from Ha-jun, slowly got up from his seat, and Ha-jun also followed Liam and took out Maharaj.
“Come on, wait a minute, if you’re still overworked… … .”
However, despite Yu Seol-ah’s words, Liam just stood up without answering.
This one is for that lil chicken owl
Now Liam couldn’t hear anyone’s voice.
‘certainly… … If I could do it one more time… … .’
The moment I gave my whole body to concentration and senses, I saw a new world.
Liam wanted to recreate that feeling once more.
Soon after, Liam began to focus all his nerves on Kim Ha-jun’s movements.
I stopped thinking and left everything to my body.
In such a slow world.
Liam slowly moved his body to approach Kim Ha-jun.
Its movement was infinitely slow at first, but gradually accelerated and began to speed up.
Soon after, when the spear reached the distance, Liam’s spear blade was directed at Hajun’s neck.
That moment.
gang!!
Liam received a huge shock with a dull sound.
Without a second thought, it began to fly away.
And roll over the ground without slowing down and fly away.
thud! crisp!!
hung straight up on a tree.
Soon after, the shocked tree groaned! Tilt sideways with a sound.
“Aww!! What are you doing!!”
Seol-ah Yoo, shocked to see the scene, hurriedly ran to Liam.
Was Ha-jun also a little harsh when he saw the scene in front of him? Thinking about it, he scratched his head in embarrassment and approached Liam.
However, Ha-jun was at a loss for words at the sight that followed.
“ha ha ha!”
Liam was smiling brightly.
Even though his whole body was shattered, even though blood was dripping from his forehead, he was smiling brightly enough to pierce the hearts of the beholder.
In an instant, Ha-jun and Yoo Seol-ah’s faces began to harden seriously.
Seol-ah Yoo began to whisper- into Ha-jun’s ear.
– Where did you hit me wrong? I mean, I can’t fix my head with my own abilities.
-… … I know? Where did he go wrong?
Obviously the place where he was hit was the abdomen, but it seems that he injured his head while rolling.
It was clear to see the blood dripping from his forehead as well.
Ha-jun began to worry with a more serious expression on his face.
That was then.
Liam jumped up and approached Ha-jun.
Liam smiled softly and reached out to Ha-jun, asking for a handshake.
“Thank you for being honest with me.”
“… … ?”
Ha-jun held his hand for a moment with a bewildered expression.
Liam immediately turned around.
Liam left the place, leaving Ha-jun and Yoo Seol-ah.
With a comfortable smile that seems to have disappeared for some reason.
“It was a stupid problem.”
Is it because he lost so easily that he had no time to spare?
The desire to prove myself without using relics disappeared.
I felt that all my efforts so far were in vain.
Of course I have no regrets.
This was also a good experience.
And somehow, it seemed that he knew the answer to the efforts he had made so far.
The troubles that made me work hard until now.
‘If I can’t use a myth-level Noble Phantasm, would I be special?’
In a way, it must have been a stubbornness that did not acknowledge himself.
Because there was no answer to that problem from the beginning.
Being able to use that Noble Phantasm is one’s own talent.
* * *
Liam Martell.
A boy with a complicated heart who doubts whether it is his power even though he has been chosen as a myth-level Noble Phantasm.
When he is with children, he is light and cheerful, but he must have suffered a lot on the inside.
Are you on the same level as those kids?
But what… … Looking at his face, it seems that his troubles have been resolved.
‘Is it resolved once?’
To be honest, I was wondering what happened to my hair because I hit it a bit too hard, but looking at my face, it seems to be fine.
Once it seemed to have worked out, I went back into the cave and started organizing the daily necessities I brought with me.
What is Seol-ah Yoo doing now, who immediately followed me into the cave? He looked at me with curious eyes.
“What are you doing?”
In response to her question, Ha-jun looked at her as if puzzled.
Ha-jun pretended to tap his wrist with his finger without saying anything, and Yoo Seol-ah, who saw it, slowly moved his gaze with a questioning expression and checked the watch on his wrist.
And the checked time is 12:00 PM.
“ah!”
It was time to signal the end of training.
Yu Seol-ah’s head slowly bends as if it’s broken.
Seol-ah Yoo looked at Ha-jun with an unhappy expression.
“What? why?”
“You didn’t have time because you asked them to treat Liam with the three of them!”
“Ah, um… … .”
Ha-jun had nothing to say, so he closed his mouth and looked away.
Come to think of it, did you say that those who do not score below the average have training for beating them?
“Uh, um… … suffer When I have time, I’ll go cheer for you.”
“… … .”
Seol-ah Yoo just stared at him with a piercing gaze, wondering if Ha-jun said that he didn’t know me.
