The Standard of Reincarnation Episode 62
“You mean you even read my signs?”
Someone wearing a mask walked out through the reeds.
Vincen could tell as soon as he saw it.
“FALSE? Is it a magic form?”
“Did you even notice that?”
Vinchen noticed at once that the mana surrounding the man was too artificial.
Even though there was no such thing as search characteristics, I instinctively realized it.
That man was a fake materialized by magic.
“Because it would have been difficult for a tamer to compose such a field of reeds alone.”
Vinchen stared at the man.
“Are you the real trap maker?”
“Hehe, yes.”
Vinchen had one fact in mind.
‘It may be the test of the elders of Adenka.’
So, he explained what he had figured out.
It was because he thought that if this was a test given at the level of the Adenka family, he would pass the test.
‘But no.’
It was not certain because it was a magical form, but what I felt from the man was clear hostility.
If the other person was assigned the role of an examiner, there would be no way they would be hostile.
Vincent asked.
“Why are you targeting me?”
“There was a request.”
“request?”
The man obediently taught me everything.
“They said they would give you 100 million Ludens if you killed them.”
Vincen laughed.
“Simple reason. Was Karbal your colleague?”
“No way. He was just a word I used.”
“Why are you teaching me everything like this?”
“Because you will die here anyway.”
“Right.”
After saying that, Vincen took the cloth in his hand.
So, I threw the cloth that had been wrapped around the goblin’s head.
It was loaded with subtle mana.
His expression was not visible because of the mask, but the man seemed a little taken aback.
“What are you doing?”
The knot in the fabric came untied and the goblin’s head with a hole tumbled and landed on the man’s feet.
“It is a gift.”
The man bent down and picked up the goblin’s head.
“Something like a last-ditch effort?”
“You gave me a gift at best. I wish I could make you happy.”
The man shrugged.
“Not much fun for a last-ditch effort.”
He picked up a nearby tree branch.
A red aura rose around the branches, forming the shape of a sword.
Raven also saw the scene clearly.
‘Sword skill?’
In order to implement visible sword skills, at least a 5-star level is required.
But now, it was not a ‘substance’, but a ‘magic form’.
It would not have been possible to perfectly reproduce the original body’s ability.
“Give me plenty of time to prepare. The two of you can jump together.”
The monster with a sword wrapped around a tree branch laughed.
From start to finish he was relaxed.
Vincen said while aiming the red lotus at the monster.
“I will ask you one last question.”
“okay. It will be the last time, so ask carefully.”
“Why don’t you know anything about the subject you’re trapped in?”
At the same time,
the goblin’s hair in his left hand grew long in an instant.
“Ugh?”
Hair wrapped around the monster’s body.
The screams gradually disappeared, and the monster’s body also disappeared.
The hair that surrounded the monster spontaneously rose and turned into smoke, forming a single shape.
It was like a huge ghost.
Vinchen turned and hugged Raven.
Suddenly,
a terrifying sound ran down my spine.
Hey hey hey –
it was like a howl.
Raven said embarrassed.
“What are you doing?”
“Close your eyes and stay still.”
It was a strange situation and difficult to understand, but Raven’s actions and answers were quick.
“uh. okay.”
Vinchen extremely activated mana.
Heat radiated from Vincen’s body.
I whispered very softly to Raven.
‘Don’t make a sound. Don’t even breathe.’
‘uh. okay.’
Raven felt as if something was approaching behind Vincen.
I couldn’t see it because my eyes were closed, but the downy hair on the nape of my neck stood up.
‘what?’
It was a terrible feeling that is difficult to describe in words.
An ominous thing that shouldn’t exist in this world seemed to have passed by.
After a while, a voice was heard.
“You can open your eyes.”
Vinchen fell from Raven.
Raven looked around with a blank face.
“What happened?”
The reed forest that had filled the place until just now had disappeared.
The man is also gone.
Instead, numerous corpses and bones were scattered around.
It was a land devoid of any vitality.
‘Dead land.’
Vinchen picked up the goblin’s head, which had turned black.
“What was that thing that just popped out?”
“The 7-pointed mutation is the [Satiation] that was dormant in the goblin’s body.”
I had met this goblin in the past.
When the body of this mutant goblin with seven dots loses life, the ‘power of predation’ awakens.
The subject who granted ‘predation’ to the goblins.
“Predation? What is it?”
“I don’t know exactly. However, black magicians call it the power of the other world.”
Serkun, who had been watching from afar, appeared.
“Interesting. It was my first time seeing it.”
“The Devour has awakened and devoured the magic form.”
“I saw it too. A huge ghost with dark and ominous energy. It ate the magic form and the magic around it.”
The expression “eaten up” was accurate.
Everything that came in contact with ‘predation’ was eaten by the predation.
Manado.
life too.
Serkun saw it himself.
“And it lingered behind your back for a while. It was like I could smell you.”
Serkun’s eyes touched Vincen’s back.
Vinchen’s back was already tattered.
The skin was rotten, and ooze was seeping out.
‘You’re so calm even after doing that?’
Vinchen’s expression Sercun saw was calm.
‘Because of the terror attack, my body wouldn’t be normal either.’
And suddenly,
Raven’s eyes landed on her.
‘[Predation] was a dangerous guy.’
What should I define it as?
monster?
It felt different from the monster.
As Vinchen said, it was most appropriate to describe it as ‘the power of the other world’.
“[Predation], which is said to eat everything, didn’t eat you.”
“It’s because you used the mana he hates.”
It was the mana she trained with her teacher, Nedia.
Mana created to destroy Samion.
‘Predation’ morbidly hated the smell of that mana.
“What is it?”
“Are you asking me to teach you all of my resources?”
Serkun smiled.
“That was not my intention. I’m sorry. But please teach me one thing. Why did you push yourself so hard?”
“I just did my best.”
But Serkun knew.
‘It’s because of Prince Raven.’
To protect Raven.
Vinchen managed a level of mana that exceeded his best.
‘why?’
If he hadn’t hugged and protected Raven, he would have suffered far fewer injuries.
It wouldn’t have been necessary to manage mana by force.
“Deaconess Serkun. It doesn’t seem like it’s time to take a leisurely look around like this.”
“What does it mean?”
“Someone dug a trap by carving a satiation spell on the goblins.”
“What does that have to do with me?”
What was important to Serkun was Raven’s comfort.
Other than that, I wasn’t interested.
“But he didn’t know anything. Rather, he even went so far as to say that he had pushed Karbal into a trap. It means there is someone else manipulating him.”
“That has nothing to do with me either.”
“As long as Raven remains a 9th grade cadet, it will matter.”
Serkun was silent for a moment.
Raven and Vinchen are 9th grade cadets and will grow up together.
When Vincen is in danger, Raven is also in danger.
The thought was not long.
“So what does Prince Vincen want?”
“You have to chase [predation].”
“Why?”
“Because they’re after the most delicious prey.”
The most delicious prey here was a magical shape made of magic.
A high-level magic form capable of realizing sword skills.
“I will eat his body.”
He was a magical figure.
His main body will be hiding somewhere and predation will be chasing him.
“No matter how minimally he is, he is a 5-star or higher soldier. That said, it is a level of strength capable of sacrificing such warriors. Also, someone who can realize high-level magic together.”
“….”
“If he targets me, my colleague Raven will be in danger too.”
What Vinchen needed now was the power of Serkun the King of Salvation.
“Would you expose Raven to such danger? Or would you like to remove those variables?”
No answer came.
Serkun had disappeared.
Even Vincen could not speak anymore.
‘He looks faint again.’
I held onto the consciousness that was moving away.
After applying a lot of healing potion on his back, he said.
“I need to do some meditation. Please protect the law, Raven.”
Round 1 Magic Rotation.
2nd round Magic Rotation.
He constantly rotates his magic power and blows mana into every corner of his body.
A lot of time has passed.
When Vincen opened his eyes, Serkun was back.
Serkun’s always well-groomed clothes were a bit disheveled.
If you look closely, you can see that there are minor scratches on the face.
“How did the predation go?”
“It disappeared by itself.”
Serkun did not give a detailed explanation.
Instead, I put something out.
It was a human head.
Raven flinched, but Vinchen wasn’t surprised at all.
“What is this?”
“This is the main body of the person wearing the mask.”
“Couldn’t you have brought him alive?”
Interest is not the head.
Interest was also used by someone.
I had to find out who was behind it, but it was a bit disappointing that he died.
“It seemed impossible to capture alive while dealing with predation. Is this a familiar face?”
“I do not know.”
“Then why did you mention Samion earlier?”
“I hired a tamer and then dug a double trap that sacrificed at least 5-star warriors.”
Even that trap was a trap.
In other words, ‘someone’ dug a triple trap.
“How many people in the world are there who can set such an elaborate trap and still hold a grudge against me?”
Vinchen remembered one person.
Samion’s elder Holman, who accompanied Kagon at the time of the friendship exchange meeting.
“An elder was sacked after the friendship exchange meeting and received all kinds of censure. To take responsibility for the defeat.”
Kagon was defeated, but only Holly was responsible.
“Even so, I hope it isn’t him.”
It is Samion that must be overcome.
I didn’t want to see Samion’s pettiness.
“But the important thing is that this mission is a direct point mission. It would be better to respond at the family level.”
Vinchen grinned.
“I will report this incident to the Presbyterian Church of Adenka. And I will nominate Deacon Serkun as the notary public for my report.”
“I will refuse to bother you.”
“The answer is notarization.”
“…What do you mean?”
Serkun has no interest in Raven’s safety.
Such Serkun moved directly.
“Could I have cut Lee’s throat? Even if you look at it, you’re a much stronger warrior than me.”
The wounds leave traces of the sword.
The cut surface was much cleaner.
“In my eyes, the traces of Serkun, the King of Killers, remain intact.”
In other words,
“He notarized with his actions that something important enough to be moved by the King of Salvation was involved.”
“….”
“At this level, Adenka will also look at it very carefully.”
But then
pair! match! match!
Applause began to be heard.
“Isn’t that quite right? Butler Serkun ate one.”
Even Vinchen, who has a sensitive sense of humor, did not feel it at all.
Someone was walking this way.
