Hunter Academy’s Greatest War God - Chapter 180

Episode 180 Shin

Yoo-seong and Joo Him-chan start walking in the direction of 2 o’clock. The lava field gradually cleared away, and the ground was turned into a crystal cave covered with minerals.

widely.

Before entering the Crystal Cave.

“for a moment.”

Ju Himchan bent down and put his hand on the floor. Unlike open plains, it is easy to notice small movements in closed caves. Also, if there was a dragon in the cave, it would spread energy with its large size and mighty mana.

“hmm. I can’t feel any movement. Seeing that the dungeon has been mutated, it must have been bittersweet…”

However, far from feeling the dragon’s energy, the dungeon was strangely quiet.

‘No movement?’

Thinking strangely, Shin Yooseong touched the floor with his hand. Although he scanned the surroundings with his super senses, he did not feel any sign of a huge creature in the cave.

“There, student Yooseong. Isn’t this cave like… a maze?”

Joo Himchan looked at the beautiful crystal and opened his mouth.

“There was a maze like this in an amusement park I once saw. At that time, it was a mirror, not a crystal.”

“…mirror labyrinth?”

Let’s make a curious expression about Shin Yoosung. Joo Himchan Ah! He smiled and kindly explained.

“It’s about finding your way in a place full of mirrors. It looks easy, but once you enter the maze, you can easily get lost because of the mirror that reflects your own image.”

Himchan Joo smiled shyly and started walking again. However, as they entered the cave, the passage became narrower and the crystals scattered in the form of minerals were now sparsely crafted like pillars.

Swoop.

A gloomy aura that spreads from the Crystal Mine. Let’s walk slowly without missing the boundary. As if waiting for Shin Yoo-seong and Joo Him-chan, two passages came out.

“This is… a barrier.”

The first to react was Shin Yoosung.

I knew it because I had experienced Lorelai’s barrier in the battle. Although the quality of mana was different, the method of densely combining powerful mana was an infallible barrier.

“The dragon’s barrier… I’m not good at dealing with people like this.”

Juhimchan felt more comfortable fighting the dragon with its mouth open than facing the barrier.

However, the Dragon’s Barrier is a high-level magic that even Shin Yoo-seong, who has learned Mana Resonance, cannot break. The only way to catch Crupeos was to enter the barrier.

“Still, the opponent is one of the incarnations of Sardonyx. I was prepared for this much. Student Shin Yoo-seong, would you like to enter the barrier too?”

Let’s shout Joo Himchan with a powerful voice. Shin Yooseong nodded.

‘There must be no other way.’

Let’s walk through the aisle.

Blue light poured from the transparent crystal toward Shin Yuseong. A dreamy atmosphere that will take your eyes off of you. Crystals were divided into cases that reflect the appearance of new meteors and cases that emit light of five different colors.

– It takes so much effort to attack Hwashin. Let’s walk with a voice so that we can recognize each other’s danger.

Joo Himchan’s voice echoed through the cave. As long as they entered the opponent’s barrier, the location of Shin Yoo-seong and Joo Him-chan has already been revealed. It was a good idea to walk while sharing each other’s location.

“great.”

Let Shin Yoo-seong answer briefly.

Joo Himchan opened his mouth after contemplating what to say.

– Shin Yoo-seong, do you know why Sardonyx divided himself into incarnations?

The reason why Sardonyx, the strongest dragon of the Red clan, created his own incarnation. What Juhimchan and Hunters could know was only fragmentary information. All the hunters could know was a few brief lines written in the tower’s records.

Yoosung Shin nodded his head mildly even though he couldn’t see Ju Himchan because he was blocked by crystals.

“I heard that sardonyx likes to play.”

play.

The act of a dragon who, as a human being, lives close to eternal life, can’t stand boredom and leaves Rare to travel around the human world.

– Yes. The Tower’s records said that Sardonyx shared his personality in order to enjoy more amusement.

Did you enjoy spending time with humans? However, Sardonyx’s end to the Tower’s record was not good. For some reason, Sardonyx is a dragon that has lost its reason and has run amok and invaded the human world at will.

The Dragons of the Red clan, who were responsible, tried to stop it, but according to the records, the damage was unimaginable.

– I was suddenly curious. A dragon that even split its own soul to meet humans. Why did he run amok in the human world?

However, that is all that is written in the records of the tower.

[The rampant Sardonyx invaded the human world and was eventually sealed by the hero and the Red clan.]

This short phrase is all that is written in the record. No matter how curious the reason is, this amount of information ends in inference.

– haha! Of course, it would be foolish to pay more attention than necessary to the boss mob you need to target.

After the story of Ju Himchan ended, what touched the planting?

“…Wrong.”

The girl’s voice from somewhere refuted Joo Himchan’s story. A voice full of sad emotions.

Blasphemy!

The crystals surrounding the new meteor cracked and a huge magic circle was drawn on the cave floor.

Saaa!

This is the operation of the barrier ceremony without fail.

I was determined to a certain extent, but the opponent was a dragon. The scale of the barrier was much bigger than I thought, enough to cover the entire crystal cave.

Wow!

Shin Yuseong was transferred to somewhere as his eyes flashed.

‘…Teleport?’

If hunters deal with attributes, dragons deal with magic. Of course, even among magic, this large-scale teleport is the highest level of magic.

Shin Yooseong looked around while maintaining tension.

The floor was transparent crystal.

The surroundings were filled with soft blue lights and fog. On the other side of the open field of vision, only darkness existed.

“That’s … wrong.”

Bubbly.

Someone walked out of the darkness on the other side. The opponent was a girl with mysterious hair that seemed to be sprinkled with stars on the night sea.

“…That’s not why Sardonyx made us.”

The girl showed no will to attack Shin Yoo-seong. Rather, the girl’s calm voice seemed to want to convince the other person.

“…Are you Krupeos?”

The girl nodded at Shin Yoo-seong’s question, which he threw while adjusting his posture.

“huh. that’s right. I am the second incarnation of Sardonyx. A second soul fragment containing her gentleness. … so you know.”

Unbeknownst to the hunters, Krupeos was an incarnation created by Sardonyx with his gentle personality.

The only thing left in the tower’s records is the information that Krupeos is the second strongest incarnation of Sardonyx.

The fact that Crupeos did not recklessly attack Shin Yoo-seong was a manifestation of the gentle personality he received at that time.

“The reason why Sardonyx split our souls and made us…”

Krupeos raised his hand to the floor.

Fondant.

Mana resonated on the floor like raindrops on a river. The dark space was projecting images like a screen in a movie theater.

“Because of the promise she made.”

Saaa.

The dark space became brighter and I saw a beautiful green forest.

tweet.

the sound of birds chirping.

Surprisingly, the video created by Krupeos’ magic perfectly reproduced the sound.

In the beautiful forest where the sunlight pours in, I see a brown-haired boy who has fallen asleep.

“Hey Taru!”

A red-haired girl called out to a brown-haired boy from afar.

“Hurry up! Mrs. Heinda wants to eat quickly! This soup has a lot of meat, so I told you to come quickly.”

“Ugh Lepina…”

A girl named Lepina seemed to take care of a boy named Taru.

Took.

A video that suddenly turns off.

Krupeos looked at the girl named Lepina with a sad face and said.

“At first it was a whim. Sardonyx felt bored with the long time given to dragons… and envied the lives of humans.”

The intense red hair and eyes I just saw. Yoosung Shin was convinced that Lepina was Sardonyx.

Krupeos read Shin Yoo-seong’s thoughts.

“You have a good eye. that’s right. She is Sardonyx. The rest of the envy of humans. Sardonyx decided to live the same life as humans. That’s a very ordinary human being…”

Saaaa.

The video turned on again.

No matter how much time had passed, Tarrou had grown to the age of about 14. The pretty face of childhood now boasted a dazzling beauty.

“…Lefina.”

Taru was conscripted as a child soldier and left the village. Lefina replied with a lonely face in front of the reddish sunset.

“huh.”

“I’ll be back.”

As Taru left a short greeting and was about to leave, Repina grabbed Taru’s hand and said,

“Did you really make a promise? to come back You swore to me. got it?”

The promise they made seemed like an ordinary oath between a child soldier and a country girl.

But it was no ordinary promise. The opponent who polymorphed in some form now is the head of the Red clan. Sardonyx.

“huh. Lefina. I swear.”

The moment Taru answered.

The world around him shone dimly.

Sardonyx made a promise with the word spirit. The power of the dragon’s covenant is strong enough to change the game in a small country’s battlefield. But the owner of the covenant is Sardonyx. It wasn’t difficult to protect Taru’s life.

pod.

The screen went off with the covenant.

Krupeos saw a new meteor.

“But there were variables. The first love… was too intense for a boring dragon.”

Krupeos was persuading Shin Yoo-seong little by little. He was telling the narrative of Sardonyx and explaining why such a thing had to happen.

Saaa.

Again, the video streamed out of the darkness. Returning from the war, Taru turned 17, and the village welcomed the war hero’s return.

“Taru is back!”

“Come here quickly! What is so much baggage!”

“Oh, these people! Tarru is now a nobleman! We should treat you with respect and respect!”

“I heard that even the lord showed interest in you? There was a lot of chaos around.”

“A feat is also a public achievement, but have you heard what the enemy is saying?”

“I heard that Rendell’s generals have polymorphed dragons?”

“haha! With our Taru’s good looks and skills, it’s cheap even if you get suspicious!”

Tarrou got off his horse and walked slowly over the crowd of villagers to someone.

Swoop.

And slowly took off the helmet.

“Lefina.”

3 years have passed since I swore.

Even after a lot of time had passed, Taru smiled at Lepina with a boyish smile that was all too familiar.

“I’m back.”

A demonic man who fell in love with a dragon. The 17-year-old Taru’s face was surprisingly similar to Shin Yoo-seong.

The beauty that makes it understandable that Sardonyx fell for his belated first love.

Somewhere the wind blew

Krupeos’s hair, like the night sky, fluttered.

“Human beings live a short but burning life like fire. Maybe the first play with Taru… was too intense for her.”

The light scattered through Krupeos’ hands was engraved into the darkness, creating a starry night sky.

“…Taru.”

“Long time. Thank you for continuing to stand by my side… Lefina.”

70 years.

It is everything in human life. Time is but a fleeting moment for a dragon. As the years passed and Tarrou got older, Lefina was still the same as she was in her twenties. This appearance is proof that she is a dragon.

“no. …should we call it Sardonyx? Without me… you’d just leave… Thank you so much. Lefina.”

Taru thanked Repina for protecting her end. And at the same time, he prayed and blessed her new play.

But Sardonyx wasn’t ready yet.

70 years of human life.

It was too short a time for the dragon Sardonyx. She was not ready to let Tarrou go.

“…no. don’t leave I… will find you.”

Sardonyx was adamant.

While shedding tears, she spat out words in a voice that did not waver and looked straight into Taru’s eyes.

“…I swear. They say people in Rendell reincarnate?”

Sardonyx grabbed Taru’s hand.

I felt the warmth of life cooling off from the cruelly clasped hands.

So, I hurriedly opened my mouth.

“…no matter how much time passes. whatever it looks like Taru… I will find you.”

Like that moment that has now faded.

the surrounding landscape.

the world shone

Sardonyx once again with the dragon’s spirit. He made a covenant with Taru.

“Even if I repeat the game several times. Just

like the promise Taru had made, Lefina smiled and swore.

“I’ll find you.”

Taru’s flame went out.

The fire that had turned to ashes was scattered into the night sky with the power of the covenant to burn again.

Since the power of the covenant is absolute, the light will surely burn as a new flame.

However, not all stories can have a happy ending.

Sardonyx played hundreds and thousands of times, splitting his own soul and trying to find the reincarnation of Taru.

In the end, they couldn’t find Taru.

He broke his covenant.

Krupeos looked at Shin Yoo-seong with an insensitive but lonely face.

“…The stronger the dragon that made the covenant, the more absolute the power of the covenant. It would have been even more so if it was Sardonyx who created me.”

Even if Krupeos doesn’t speak anymore. Shin Yooseong was able to understand everything.

Why did Sardonyx make incarnations and play repeatedly? Did it explode in the end? all could know

“Wherever this is. More than summoned. Incarnations will find Taroo. Because that is her wish. But…”

Krupeos smiled and said to Shin Yoo-seong in the space where blue mana swayed.

“…Looks like you’ve already found it.”
