Episode 221 I love the sea! (2)
Has it already been thirty years?
Glenn looked at him with eyes that could not be helped.
“You forgot again? Even if it’s a 30-year cycle, you have to remember what you remember.”
“…I do remember. It just didn’t come to my mind all of a sudden.”
“Words are liquid water. How about something blacker than that?”
As he spoke, the young man drew a sword from his waist and showed it.
Even the slightest friction sound could not be heard, and the sword body neatly pulled out of the scabbard revealed a bewitching appearance.
Glene, who had been silently looking at that figure, nodded.
“It’s okay. You took good care of it.”
“…”
“I didn’t come here to talk about something heavy. I want to tell you the news of Hessia…”
“How are you today?”
Like a mother who puts her child at the water’s edge, she is restless.
Glaine smiled at that appearance and opened her mouth.
“how are you. I am training harder than anyone else. It may be natural as the timing is the timing, but…”
“That’s fortunate.”
“Haven’t you been a good friend since someone told you to? ha ha ha.”
A moment of silence follows the words
“…” .
Glene, who was breathing lightly, looked out the window and said.
“Now, in a few days, it will start soon… I have to go soon too.”
“okay.”
Watching him turn his back without regret, the black-haired young man added something.
“Hey, Hessia…”
He was about to say something, but stopped biting his lips.
An awkward smile crept across his lips.
“no. thanks for letting me know.”
* * *
There are dozens of people gathered in a large empty lot.
Each one has a spleen expression and touches the weapon.
Among them, the man with the best physique starts talking in the center.
“You know because you’ve been through it once, but this is a sacred fight. The weak are eliminated and only the strong survive. So survive and prove it.”
“….”
“….”
“I don’t know how helpful the week of preparation was, but… I hope it will be a final battle with no regrets.”
After turning his back for a moment, he cleared his throat and continued.
“…next come out and get ready.”
At his words, a red-haired young man and a brown-haired woman walk out.
Contrary to the woman’s side, who is clearly nervous, the young man is smiling all the time.
“…What is it that you like so much?”
“ha ha ha. well.”
“You really until the very end…”
Even the woman’s face, which seemed to be sad, did not stop laughing.
It was a face as if it was fortunate to meet an easy opponent.
Looking at the opponent while holding the sword, the man continued.
“Begin.”
With those words, a great wind rose.
Sparks fly and the sound of weapons clashing fills the hall.
Caan-! Caan-!
Aura blades are spewing out, revealing a strong life as if trying to kill the opponent.
The woman swung around with her sword, but it was the young man who had the upper hand while taking a defensive stance.
“Ugh…!”
Instead, the counter-resilience of the swords colliding only pushed them back.
As soon as the offensive was naturally passed on to the opponent, the young man quickly stabbed his sword.
Its speed is like a shot arrow.
Wedge-!
With the sound of cutting the wind, the young man’s sword aimed at the woman’s head.
She barely avoided it by raising her head, and gritted her teeth.
“Are you really thinking of killing me?”
“Only the victor survives. Only the living are strong.”
A self-deprecating smile spread across his face as he spoke mechanically.
It’s a different tone from her, who couldn’t sleep at the thought of having to fight with her best friend.
“Okay…then I’ll let go of my lingering feelings too.”
“I don’t like bullying the weak either. Let’s finish quickly.”
“Who is the underdog!”
Kaaang-!
The aura blade strikes lightly and comes in.
If possible, the idea is to make a gap and squeeze through it.
‘I’m behind in my skills. I have to look for opportunities.’
However, he is not a young man who will be taken lightly.
Unlike the first time, his sword attack that came aggressively was quite fierce.
With each heavy blow, small scars increase on her body.
Still, she was aiming for the final blow.
Put your left foot behind you and show your shoulder.
At first glance, it seems that the body is trying to block it.
The young man hit her fiercely.
The heavy sword strike was enough to make her arm lose feeling.
In the midst of this, the tip of the young man’s sword shook for a moment.
It must be proof that his posture has been shaken, albeit in a small way, by the continuous large-scale attacks.
Without missing the gap, he thrust out his sword.
Because it contains all the mana, the Aura Blade instantly grows.
Without even thinking about blocking the sword, the young man had to give up his abdomen.
Suwook-
He felt the cold sword and at the same time he spit out blood.
Unexpectedly, when the blow succeeded so easily, a curious mind preceded it.
“…You can’t believe it…”
As she was about to say something, the young man hugged the woman tightly.
Silently shaking my head and smiling made me speechless.
“I will entrust my… life…”
As soon as the last words are finished, a blue curtain covers the two.
“Ah….”
The power and mana he has accumulated over the years are passed on to her.
It felt as if the life he had lived was on his shoulders.
The two who had lived as one person became one person again as one died.
Mana grew huge and the hand holding the sword overflowed with power, but tears flowed endlessly from his eyes.
In exchange for gaining strength, he lost a friend.

After coming down from the mountains and arriving at the castle, Ray was lost in thought.
‘Ocean after sea, then another sea.’
If I continue like this, I will become the pirate king of medicine or whatever.
what about one? If we continue like this, even if we teach medicine, it will be several decades before we enter the practical stage.
The perpetrator’s learning ability can never understand today’s medicine.
At least Iriel’s level has to be a passing grade.
“Just because I teach alone doesn’t mean I’m good at it. We need to establish academies not only in the Holy Land, but everywhere.”
There is a need to spread basic hygiene, treatment, disease prevention and medicine concepts.
That said, I don’t intend to break the frame of the other world, but I think medicine needs to be known.
He didn’t even know why he was sick because he thought medicine was all about spraying potions on wounds or being healed by priests or priests.
To do so, a lineage of heroes was essential.
It doesn’t matter much to Ray whether it’s God’s fallout or the hero of the century.
If you have to choose, a good doctor is more important.
‘You don’t know how strong a family of heroes can be. It’s a race created by God himself, so you shouldn’t be vigilant. So, I have to consider the case of my death. If it’s Iriel’s healing power, I’ll be able to save her even if she dies instantly.’
Organizing his thoughts, he went straight to Iriel.
As she opened the door to her room, she made a puzzled expression.
“Saint? What are you doing at this late hour?”
“I have something to say.”
“Let’s come in first and talk.”
Step aside and point inward.
As if they were drinking tea, there is a cup with warm steam rising on the table.
As soon as I leaned back in the chair, Iriel brought out the car.
“So what do you say?”
“The story takes a long time to explain from the beginning…”
“I like things that are brief.”
“It fits well.”
He joked and continued with a serious expression.
“I ordered the receptionist to gather information. I don’t know if this information is reliable, but there are three places where this hero’s lineage is concentrated.”
“How did you specify those three places?”
“There are only three places in the Western Continent that no one has ever been to.”
“…that means… may or may not exist? Besides, you want me to go there too, right?”
“I’m glad you understand quickly.”
“take care.”
He grabs Iriel’s wrist as he tries to leave the room even though it’s his own.
“I need you.”
“If it was a nicer and atmospheric place, I would have passed, but this is impossible.”
Talk and point to a map.
There was only the sea with nothing in it.
Bada himself was dumbfounded after hearing from Soyoung.
Moreover, since all three places are sea, this kind of reaction from Iriel is natural.
“This place is actually quite atmospheric.”
“What mood? The atmosphere that might become fish food?”
I almost nodded my head involuntarily and agreed.
However, he shook his head violently and teased his mouth again to convince Iriel.
“A wonderful night view of the moonlight peeping over the calm sea? This is romantic.”
“Of course, it would be amazing to see it from above the calm sea. However, in the case of the sea the Holy Son spoke of, the current is strong and chaotic, so there will be considerable waves.”
“….”
“It must be strong enough to destroy even a normal ship. If you fall into the water, you can also observe the beautiful environment under the sea. Of course, I will die miserably after that.”
“….”
“Even if you succeed in arriving after so much hardship, if there is no lineage of heroes there, it wouldn’t be so futile, right?”
“….”
He pulls out the things he deliberately tried not to think about and digs into his heart.
He also thought.
I went through hardships and wandered the sea, but what if the lineage of a hero is not there?
I don’t even want to think about such horrible things.
I just can’t help but listen and look for it.
Their existence was absolutely necessary to develop and commercialize medicine more rapidly.
I doubt if I can fully understand it if I teach it to the culprit, and it takes too much time.
When Ray let go of his arm, Iriel looked back at him as if he couldn’t win.
“Whew… Even if I follow you, what are you going to do with Seongguk? There is no reason for either of you to be away.”
“If that’s the case, no problem.”
“yes? What is that…”
“Actually, Goddess Gaia gave a revelation.”
“Is there a goddess? It’s so sudden….”
“He means to find out the lineage of the hero and carry on the will of the Holy Kingdom.”
“Really?”
“You mean to surround the Holy Kingdom like that.”
Iriel was taken aback by his words.
“Seongjae Seo is selling God! That’s not going to happen!”
“No matter how many times I use it for something like this, Goddess Gaia will understand. What can I say about using your name several times to help the Holy Kingdom?”
“…”
Iriel was at a loss for words.
Goddess Gaia, who was probably listening, would have admired it, striking her forehead.
