Episode 374 The Extreme of Ganghwa (1)
“Now then. What is Odin doing now and what is the situation. Would you like to brush off everything you know?”
A strange desire bloomed in his eyes, where he could even feel Jaehyun’s malice.
It is both contempt for Odin and towards the dark elves who led the cadets to their deaths in the past.
Kim Yoo-jung and Kwon So-yul also know this. Even Kim Yoo-jung watched it from the side.
The moment when Jae-hyeon, who changed his course to the magic world, began to agonize and contemplate life for the first time. She could still see the cadets dying behind bars.
She knew Jaehyun would kill the dark elf.
1 king in front of my eyes. He is, after all, the main axis of evil. It is correct to exclude it here for the sake of the future. He’s just trying to dig up information.
Kim Yoo-jung believed in reappearance, sometimes cold and sometimes gentle.
“Well, it’s a bit like that I don’t have any turn to go out, but.”
“He is too strong. Yoojung, we are not weak.”
Kwon So-yul corrected it. A black-haired voice came from behind. He proudly opens his chest and speaks.
“Somewhere the buff was applied! Among us Dwarves, there is not a single one who can apply such a buff!”
“……huh? Uh…”
…Is that bragging?
Kim Yoo-jung thought about that for a while, but soon realized that it was a story to comfort herself and nodded.
The first king in front of Jaehyun. Lou was now gradually being destroyed to other body parts. That’s probably the power of Daren’s engraving.
After all, a king is a king…!
Kim Yoo-jung admired again and made a satisfied expression.
You will be able to handle such an imprint yourself!
In fact, he needed a proper level to deal with the imprint, but Hella had said that the cutoff wouldn’t be that high if he was Jaehyun’s colleague. It’s probably because they’re allies of the antagonist, so they’re getting a buff.
Whatever it was, there was nothing bad about it.
If you kill Lou now and go back to the Golden Return, you will benefit too!
Although he is now riding Jaehyun’s bus… This is only part of the strategy to help him become stronger.
It must have been the situation right before he bent his knees and gained momentum to swing his fist.
“huh. yes that is it.”
Kim Yoo-jung muttered moderately, and Jae-hyun slowly began to approach Lu. Now he was utterly appalled and refusing to reproduce.
His subordinates had already been sorted out in the lower layers. He had nowhere to lean on, and the current situation was infinitely unfavorable to him.
Therefore, Lu decided to choose the wisest way.
“If you will stop the destruction of the body… if you do that, I will tell you a story about Odin. Anything I know… So do this right now!”
it is to surrender
The one who was obsessed with power from the beginning.
It may have been a passing score in terms of the character of the one who reigned with blood and iron, but it was a very disgusting scene as a representation.
But there was nothing I could do about it.
Humans and elves. All other races are the same.
In the face of transcendent power and in the face of fear, a person eventually abandons his will. It is a desperate longing for life.
Jaehyun knew this.
Because I myself have lived a life like that.
After Jae-hyun reverse summons the sword, he takes the power of the imprint.
Imprinting is the power to react with the user. What is expressed through the weapon and its power as a medium. It was possible to control it yourself.
Jaehyun had just heard about this from Daren in detail.
“Huh…”
As the power of the imprint that destroyed his body tissue was withdrawn, Lou sighed and looked at Jaehyun’s face in front of him.
I feel anxiety, fear, and frequent tremors in the gaze looking up.
Looking around, his throne was broken before he knew it.
He is stuck in the ground. Moreover, the frighteningly stark eyes of the human in front of him were as cold as those of Odin.
Jaehyun asked.
“This is the first question. What is Odin’s true purpose?”
“Really… purpose?”
Jaehyun shook his fist once. Along with that, Lu’s right arm was blown off.
“Quaaaaaagh!”
“Just answer what I ask. It’s because I think it’s rude to answer a question with a question.”
Jaehyun spoke calmly, but the godhead permeated between them was truly bloody.
It was his habit that came up whenever a story related to Odin came up.
Lu barely caught his breath and started stuttering.
“I don’t know what kind of answer you want. But… Odin probably wants to change fate.”
“Change your destiny.”
“Yes. Pointed out… Even those who dare to stand at the top of the Aesir cannot easily go against it. It would be better to call it a disaster.”
Jaehyun was well aware of his fate.
antagonist of prophecy.
Isn’t one’s own name directly related to fate?
Mimir Loki, the three Norn sisters.
Jaehyun knew.
They sacrificed something important to bring themselves back to the present time. And Jaehyun and his colleagues have been steadily growing.
That way, what they got was simple.
Odin’s death.
It had already been prophesied by the three Norn sisters.
work to be done. Destiny is what must happen.
Odin tried to resist him.
The fact that he put a hougin on himself as an adversary to keep an eye on him, and the fact that he tried to kill him immediately after the power of prophecy disappeared.
It was all because they were afraid of themselves. to change fate.
In order to change the future in which he dies and obtain the world.
It was a vague guess.
Jaehyun continued with the next question.
“This is the second and final question.”
He looked down at Lou with cool eyes.
“Did he instruct the Dark Elves to join this war?”
“That’s…!”
Lou was overly flustered. It had to be.
Clearly, he is on Odin’s side and is loyal to Odin.
It is also true that he was recently instructed to participate in the war at the time of Ragnarok. If you answer like that, you will be killed here.
‘I have to answer well here…!’
The adversary in front of him was not a great man to let go of the threat with both eyes open. If he judges that he is offended in the slightest, he will immediately kill him.
It can’t be…!
“Oh no! I have never received Odin’s instructions…!”
“It is a lie.”
It was then that Jaehyun’s words fell coldly and lowly. cold smile. It didn’t stop at the chilling level.
It was because the sword in his hand slashed Lu’s face with precision.
It was awe-inspiring enough to say that it was truly beautiful. Dangerous and frightening, but unwittingly respectable swordsmanship and finish.
The black-haired sole, who had been watching this, approached Jaehyun as if he was surprised and asked cautiously.
“How did you figure out he lied?!”
“what?”
“It didn’t seem like he was using any magic, so how did he do that…”
Jaehyun burst out laughing.
“It doesn’t matter if you don’t know.”
He still smiled and rested the sword briefly on his shoulder.
“He was going to be killed here anyway, and there’s no way Odin didn’t tell the Dark Elves to go to war.”
“uh? Uh…”
“That’s right.”
Jaehyun laughed.
“That means I had no intention of saving him from the beginning.”
At that moment, the bottom of the black hair turned into an expression as if it had been hit in the head.
Kwon So-yul sighed as he looked at Jae-hyun.
“You are also a demon.”
“There are no demons in this worldview.”
When Jaehyun responded like that, Kwon Soyul grumbled that he knew how much he knew his senior. It was Kim Yoo-jung. Well, it was a happy expression that she could strengthen her own equipment.
While they were enjoying the joy of victory, one more good news flew in.
[Lee Jae-sang: We just finished killing the king! Shall we join?]
Jaehyun immediately replied.
[Min Jae-hyun: No. We’re done too. Let’s go back and strengthen our equipment.]
Looks like everything else is over.
It seemed that it was the same for him.
* * *
Nidavellir.
It was around evening when I returned to the land of the dwarves.
Daren couldn’t sleep because of the black hair and Jaehyun’s worries, so he suffered from insomnia.
“Did you just jump out after being so confident!?”
However, Jaehyun’s expression was a relaxed smile itself.
And, though weak, the smell of blood emanated from his sword. It wasn’t for the weak.
At least a strong man comparable to a king. Their blood was stained on Jaehyun’s sword.
“Because the killing of the king is over. I want to ask you to strengthen your equipment. By the way, I’m thinking of borrowing the power of all the dwarves here. how is it?”
You’re not breaking your promise, are you? Walk to Seonjo?
Jaehyun put so much effort into it with a mischievous face.
Daren couldn’t help but look at them with a face full of astonishment.
The evil smell of death and mana began to slowly dissipate throughout Svartal Fame.
What that meant was clear.
“Are you successful? Could it be… in one day?”
“Then do I look stupid enough to say I do something I can’t do?”
Jaehyun said that, and silence passed between the two of them for a long time.
Daren pondered for a moment, as he had done before he left for the first time, then said.
“Come in. Damn I slept all day. I’ll engrave a stamp or whatever right now.”
“Oh, you are right. black soles. Wasn’t the king a man who kept his promises?”
At those words, the black-footed sole proudly opened its chest again and spoke.
“What did I say! Didn’t I tell you that our King, Darren, is benevolent, wise, and intelligent… and the best blacksmith I know!”
Daren stared at the bottom of his black hair for a moment, dumbfounded.
Darren was startled for a moment at his gaze, which he did not know why.
Then, Jae-hyun went into Daren’s workshop, where he was able to see a myriad of new engravings and equipment that could be engraved there.
And in the gap of countless engravings, Jaehyun was able to find the best engravings to engrave on his equipment.
I had to be careful because I could only engrave one per piece of equipment, but that wasn’t a big deal. It is a world where the number of equipment that can be equipped is quite large in the first place.
In addition, Jaehyun’s equipment was especially high-end.
After Jaehyun stretched, he looked at the runestone used for engraving. Some were legible and some were not.
But one thing was certain.
That blue stone was filthy and difficult to obtain, and engraving was a skill that required great delicacy…
It was the fact that he would be fully armed with equipment that could be engraved a little later.
