Episode 147. It is to keep the pride (3)
[the pentagram of pure knowledge].
[A map that connects to all things].
Finally, up to the [Magic Eye’s Telescope].
When it came to the spoils of the demon king, the effect did not seem to be tied to reality or the Arcana continent. Epic ratings are not epic ratings for nothing.
‘Of course, the conditions are tricky as the effect is fraudulent.’
Even if it wasn’t disposable like Man.Tongji, there were conditions attached to the telescope.
There was a cooldown, or cooldown.
There was no need to add an explanation.
Crystal Hall.
The eyes that reflected the Arcana Continent in the air closed their eyes.
The duration of the effect is about 10 minutes, and the cooldown is 6 hours
.
‘But where is this?’
I witnessed the continent with these two eyes.
He couldn’t use Hiel as an informant forever.
I don’t know if Highel is as strong as the spirit king.
Because I knew that he resembled someone and was only terribly fine.
I said, retrieving the telescope.
“This is the current state of the Arcana Continent.”
Indeed, the demons’ words were true: even millions were only a tiny fraction.
Wherever you look, there are demons and demons again.
Had they really died together, it would have been an unfair death, but this?
If only there was something as common as those demons.
The trampled cities and inhabitants of Arcana.
“…”
Silence passed.
That makes sense.
I was guessing, but it must have been a shock.
In the silence, the whispers gradually grew louder.
“…Nonsense.”
“Is that why there are decent cities?”
“I saw it for sure. Smoke is coming from the direction of the Imperial Capital…!”
The moment you enter the magic tower.
The relationship with the world is severed.
You don’t have to go far, you can tell just by looking at Marcel.
It is a rule that the magicians of the Mage Tower cannot get deeply involved in matters outside the Mage Tower.
Even if it was something related to his family.
however.
“…shit.”
Senior Mage Bangrit gnashed her teeth.
I can’t help but worry about it naturally.
Furthermore, because Bangrit was the son of an ordinary family.
It’s natural to be more anxious than others.
But i know
“That miserable figure is the Arcana Continent that started the counterattack.”
“…!!!”
It was.
Even now, it was a sight where there was not even a single drop of hope in sight.
Even at this moment, there were Arcanaians who were fighting that devil. Akshan’s Legacy There was a Kürnberg Machine Tower. There was a dwarf flying boat.
“The reason I showed the continent without adding or subtracting is simple.”
It’s not because it’s hard to explain simply in words.
“The Arcana keep their pride until the very end.”
As I have always said, the system does not lie.
From the days when Arcana was just a game, and even after Cataclysm.
The Mage Tower, the strongest armed group in Arcana, was not moved by any incident.
But i know Even if I didn’t know it, I knew it through experience.
Even if the system is still there, NPCs are not the NPCs of the past. That she is no longer an NPC bound by the system, but an Arcana.
So I was sure.
Activation of authority function in Mage Tower?
No, you don’t even need to mention that.
Because Arcana people will have the pride of being Arcana people. At that moment
,
I felt someone’s presence.
Currently, the only elder mage in the Mage Tower, Yugwid Lufeng.
she got up from her seat.

[Quest: Unfinished Crusade]
From the Arcana continent to reality.
The crusade against the devil is not yet over.
At the end of this war, there are no rewards or loot.
All that remains is pride.
Prove yourself proud.
─Prove your worth in the area. (In progress)
Muon, Frost Holy Land in Yusra Kingdom.
The discussion did not stop among the players.
The reason was simple.
“So why don’t you join this battle?”
From the name, it is a grandiose holy war.
Even that was not enough, even a specific enemy named the devil specified in the quest.
Now that the appearance of demon-type monsters has decreased.
Ironically, the players were feeling the danger of demon-type monsters again.
“You know it touches me more because I can’t see it, right?”
“Of course you know what I mean.”
“I really didn’t want to see you again.”
The fact that it came up as a quest must mean that they will reappear at any time.
Because I am a person before a player.
I couldn’t help but agonize.
“To be honest, I don’t know if it was during the early days of the Arcana Continent.”
Isn’t this a real life risk, not a game?
Leaving aside the rewards and loot, it was not easy to make a decision.
It was my honest feeling that I wanted to avoid it if possible.
“But you can’t avoid it, can you? The fact that demons come to reality through rifts, saying that it is a planned reality… And only we, the players, can enter the rifts.”
“No, we’re not the only players…”
“What’s going to happen if we put it off to each other like that? Will there be more than rift collapse? Would it be anything more than the appearance of the demon king being released into reality!”
“No, why are you getting mad at me?”
“I’m frustrated too! Frustrating!”
No matter what decision I made, I felt uncomfortable.
“They’re the ones who broke down the northern iron wall, Frost. If the players are already divided like this, even if they unite, it’s
not enough…”
“Frost is not the old Frost…”
But as if there was no need to worry.
There were people who moved.
It was a great union.
“…Aren’t they crazy?!”
Gaon Inazuma Berserker.
In a way, it was understandable.
Those three guilds had been exerting considerable influence since the early days of Yusra Kingdom’s establishment.
It was surprising nonetheless.
“You have too much to lose?”
The more you have, the more you have to lose.
If there was something to be gained like in Yusra Kingdom, it was clearly stated that there were no rewards or loot in this quest.
“Because I’ve been given something. Could it be to repay the favor?”
Hakuna, the king of Yusura Kingdom.
Lee Ho-yeol, a player with equal [permissions].
It is certain that he moved to pay off his debt to Ho-yeol.
The players guessed.
– “It is to protect the pride in my heart.”
Tuk-tuk─
until Nam Tae-min tapped his chest.
“…Pride? What kind of dog is that eating grass?”
But the Great Coalition was just the beginning.
Another movement caught in Frost.
“I think it will be stimulating. There is no other reason.”
Along with the unification of the world, Yui’s super-giant guild Shining.
They also decided to participate in the holy war.
No, it wasn’t just them.
Goddess Church sacred ground Muon.
Bohemians, the strongest guild in the European Union.
Guild Master Guyver shuddered in front of the camera.
“Actually, the area where the arrow hit and the back of my head still tingle. It doesn’t make sense for a paladin to be left out of the crusade. Besides, you just have to repay the debt to the demons, right?”
Starting with the participation of the giant coalition, the atmosphere changed.
Not only guilds, but also individual players.
Yusra Kingdom’s Frost Muon.
It started heading to each area.
Crowds flocked to the Mage Tower, where they could grasp the players’ trends at once.
“Currently, the Mage Tower portal is overcrowded with players!”
to achieve a quest goal.
Players entering the portal.
The image spread through radio waves all over the world.
It was definitely an unfamiliar picture to those watching.
“what the. It’s the first time I’ve seen players do that.”
What is a player to the general public?
Gone are the days when a mere player was praised as a hero. In the first place, the players used to work for their own interests rather than heroes.
But this time things were different.
“You risk your life when you have nothing to gain? really?”
“What wind is everyone blowing?”
“I don’t know what pride is… but it seems a bit romantic?”
More than anything, it was because Lee Ho-yeol was there.
“Think of Liu Junchun as being involved in the quest.”
Why don’t quests have rewards and loot?
Aren’t you proud and nabal, and aren’t you a rogue to steal rewards and loot? Because it was natural to be suspicious. Even if it wasn’t Ryuo Junchun, it was the same.
Except for one person, Lee Ho-yeol.
Because he did not pursue riches and fame.
In the meantime, Ho-yeol has been shown through action.
Kingdom of Yusra.
Even in front of the temptation of the giant evil that enters the golden palace.
– “Isn’t it stupid? The moment you close your eyes, the only thing you can take is the pride in your heart.”
The fact that he entered Frost with an upright attitude, which no guild dared to enter.
It was an emergency update that was a regular update.
If it was a rift that was a threat to mankind, it was the fierce heat that had been quietly cleared.
So there was no doubt.
even if there are concerns.
“…yes, everything is fine. I can understand.”
“Ha, what else is wrong with you?”
“That’s why I’m asking if there’s a chance of winning this temple.”
It was an objective concern.
“Lee Ho-yeol, Yusra Kingdom, Frost Holy Land, Muon. And even if all players like us are in the crusade. The opponents are the demons who destroyed the entire Arcana continent!”
But those concerns were also groundless.
The lobby of the Magic Tower.
A message also came to the players who hesitated in the portal.
The [Quest: Unfinished Holy War]
quest came to mind.
“…!!!”
What he meant was simple.
Arcana’s strongest armed group.
so never once.
The Mage Tower did not make any official moves.
It means that they participate in the temple.
“…Wait a minute, the words will completely change?!”
The possibility of winning was starting to show hope.
*
Elder Mage Yugwid Lufeng opened his mouth.
“We learned a painful lesson not too long ago.”
she smiled.
“You can’t lose something precious by getting caught up in the rules, right?”
It was a benevolent smile, but for demons there is no smile more frightening than that. Ugweed’s words meant that Arcana’s strongest armed group, the Mage’s Tower, would participate in the holy war…!
I’ll be honest.
‘Now I feel a little relieved.’
It was.
Because the wizards of the Mage Tower were at least a hundred per cent.
Even on the Arcana Continent, you won’t be able to find an ally superior to the Mage Tower.
Of course, there are dragons who were victors in the Great War of the Dragons, but…
‘I don’t want to get involved with them as much as possible.’
To be involved with the final content that may be friend or foe.
Because my level was still infinitely poor.
End of round table.
At the same time, the [Quest: Unfinished Crusade] quest came to my mind. It must have come to mind not only to me, but also to other players in the Mage Tower.
‘Everyone will find out.’
The fact that the Magic Tower had set foot in the temple.
Aren’t there a few players who believe in such a mage tower and decide to participate in the war?
In that sense, I headed straight to Yusra Kingdom.
Before the magic tower joined.
That’s why there were grateful people who expressed their intention to participate in the war even after seeing a quest that seemed like they had no chance of winning.
[Breaking news: Giant coalition “Decision to participate in the war to protect pride.”]
When I first checked the breaking news.
…I wondered what this was.
I wondered if this was because I invested points in [Luck]. But why does it matter?
‘reliable.’
Gaon Inazuma Berserker’s Colossal Alliance!
I didn’t know how Gaon and Inazuma, who were enemies, came to cooperate, but I don’t think there’s a need to know.
I was just grateful that I was with the temple before anyone else.
“These are the ones who truly know pride.”
More than anything, the reason is to keep the pride.
It would be no wonder that Grandfel was more satisfied than me.
So, as much as we are grateful, we need a warm welcome.
Integrity, of course.
Even hospitality by my standards was nothing special.
The symbol of the Golden Palace.
golden round table.
Soon the door opened and I saw familiar faces.
“Ho Ho-yeol? Are you here?!”
“It’s been a while, Ho-yeol-san. I didn’t know you were there.”
“…omg.”
The eyes of the three wide-eyed.
Is there anything to be so surprised about?
I opened my mouth calmly as always.
“Would you like a cup of tea before we talk?”
Even tea is nothing but 300 won green tea.
“…yes! please! No please?! Finally!”
Leonie’s furious answer made me think.
‘Surely there is a class in tea bag green tea.’
It was not a five-star green tea for nothing.
.
.
.
Rumble!
There was no one to say first.
The three people holding the tea cups were startled and giggled.
…what did we just hear?
