90. Fragments of the Past – Silderray (1)

To hear the voices of the distant past.

And that too vividly….

Looking around again, all I could see was a whirlpool made up of aura.

Jin has experienced many mysterious things in the past 47 years, including his previous life and present life, but there was no moment as shocking as now.

Listening to the voices of a thousand years ago is not realistic.

Solderlet spoke as if he had already foreseen ‘a thousand years later’ back then.

It was confusing. I almost vomited as if someone had put a hand in my head and was digging through my brain.

I couldn’t believe it was a prank by a third party.

I’d never heard of magic that contained voices, and even if such a thing existed. Who the hell can imitate Solderlet’s voice?

‘It can’t be someone’s prank or trap. It’s not like I’m crazy after the fight. This must be a message from Solderlet to me.’

There was no other way to explain this bizarre phenomenon.

In other words…!

A small noise, like straw bales being crushed, rang in my ears.

As he lost his concentration, he began to hear his voice again.

‘You have to stay calm. I have to stay calm and listen to all the voices first.’

Jin calms down and focuses his mind on the sound leaking out of the whirlpool again.

Then the conversation from a thousand years ago began to be heard again. No, beyond just being heard.

Jin was sucked into somewhere while being engulfed in a vortex of aura.

When I opened my eyes again, it was all empty darkness.

Another subspace within a subspace.

A deep darkness incomparable to the scenery I had been standing in so far was dyeing the whole area black. Strangely, in the pitch-black darkness where it seemed impossible to see anything in front of him, Jin maintained his perfect color.

This bizarre sub-space, which should have been unfamiliar, seemed somehow familiar to Jin.

It was because I had been in this space for a while when I first signed a contract with Solderlet in my previous life.

‘It’s similar to the day I signed with Solderlet.’

Even though it was the first time he had experienced such a subspace, Jin did not feel any special sense of separation at the time.

Rather, as a contractor of the shadows, I instinctively felt a sense of security. As soon as he set foot, he realized that this was a space that anyone who belonged to the shadows could never enter.

It was still the same. Jin was no longer confused.

If only there is one difference.

The voices of the past are now being heard more clearly.

Hey Solderlet. why no answer Are you embarrassed?

Hey Solderlet. why no answer No wonder…

Hey Solderlet. Why was the answer…

Temar’s voice echoed.

I walked blindly in the direction in which the voice was heard.

Looking back, I saw a huge orb glowing gray in the distance.

Upon reaching the sphere, Jin was able to confirm it with his own two eyes.

The image of Solderlet and Temar talking a thousand years ago.

The two were talking in a gray orb.

The surface of the sphere was blurry, so I couldn’t see everything in detail, but I could make out the rough shapes of people and objects.

However, it was all dyed in dark gray, so I couldn’t tell the color apart. Like a faded and faded painting.

For example, as an ‘observer’, Jin was able to glimpse the world of a thousand years ago.

‘Is the author sitting at the table Temar… Yes. It looks the same as the one I saw in the Great Desert.’

Solderlet manifested in human form.

But only the back was visible. I had never seen him manifest in my previous life, so it was difficult to imagine his face.

Jin fixed his eyes on the gray orb.

The scene where the two of them were sitting seemed oddly familiar, and I soon knew why.

‘It’s a stormy concourse. Was it like that back then?’

Not much has changed in the central hall of the Storm Star, even compared to recent times.

Well, as you know, I am the god of swords and shadows. I can’t see a future as certain as Azmil.

what? How did a guy like that already decide the contractor for a thousand years from now?

Because that’s a separate issue from the future. Let’s just say it’s something I can foretell in advance as a god.

Knock knock-!

The main hall door opened.

The newly appeared person was none other than Silderray Runkandel. He was wearing the same armor as he had just fought Jin, and had a huge greatsword slung over his shoulder.

Do you really have to carry around such an imposing greatsword indoors?

Silderrey lightly ignored Temar’s criticism and greeted Solderlet politely.

Meet the guardian deity of the Silderray Runkandel family.

I can’t even hear the words of the head of state. ha true Hey Silderray. What do you think?

What do you mean? house owner.

Solderlet says we don’t know if we’ll win or lose to Zipple. They say they don’t know what’s right in front of them, even though they’ve even decided on a contractor for a thousand years from now.

house owner.

why.

Are you anxious?

Temar didn’t answer and looked into Silderrey’s eyes for a moment.

I’m curious about Solderlet’s opinion.

Everyone is looking at only one head. Don’t you know how much ripple effect each word of the family tree has? Please do not ask the Guardian Spirit such stupid questions in front of other family members.

Temar shrugged.

well that’s it But, to be honest. i’m anxious Silder Ray, are you like that too?

I’m not anxious.

I’m just lying Even I, who reached the Changseong Fortress, was afraid of fighting Jiple. How afraid would you and the other guys be?

Runkandel is undoubtedly the strongest.

After all, fear is not a sin. Not running away when you’re afraid is something to be proud of.

I don’t think so.

Yes, your thoughts are different. Unfortunately, in Runkandel, my words are the law and the truth. These days, you say that if you see family members trembling with anxiety, you get scolded. That’s very wrong. People can be a bit scary. Especially when it comes to the situation ahead of an unprecedentedly large war.

It wasn’t a particularly overbearing tone.

However, there was an irresistible dignity in Temar’s soft and mischievous voice.

Isn’t it because you’re afraid, too, that you’re being sharper towards your family members and me? Don’t fool yourself, Silderray. Acknowledge and accept, but take control. Carrying that vicious greatsword at all times is just another expression of fear.

…All right.

yes yes But why are you here?

Oh, I recently came to report that an unusual air current was detected in the 1st mage tower of Zipple.

If it’s a 1 mage tower, it’s a tower of stories.

yes lord. More than 300 dragons were suddenly gathering in the 1st Mage Tower, so Sarah Runcandel led five magic swordsmen and went to check the situation.

That’s enough to get you out without a problem. No, since I said no, I should go too. I wonder what you’re trying to do with 300 dragons. Get ready, Silderay.

yes.

Solderlet I’ll be back soon

…

Suddenly, the gray orb distorted.

‘what?’

Jin winced and examined the sphere.

The screen continued to run inside the distorted sphere, but it was crushed beyond recognition. The voices were also grotesquely mixed and unintelligible.

It feels like someone deliberately cut out part of the book.

However, since Jin knew nothing about this unusual type of ‘recording device’, he could not do anything else.

I didn’t know that the situation might get worse if I put my hand on it.

Time seemed to pass slowly.

“oh.”

After a while, the moment the gray sphere returned to normal, Jin let out an exclamation involuntarily. The gray orb was again showing its appearance from a thousand years ago.

But the point of view has changed.

The scene shown by the gray orb was no longer the center hall of the Tempest Castle, where Solderlet and Temar Silderray were.

It wasn’t even a scene where Temar went to support ‘Sarah Runkandel’ with Silder Ray.

What Jin could see was a treatment room from a thousand years ago. I also saw a man sitting in front of a hospital bed with his head bowed helplessly, and that was Silderray.

After being distorted once, it seemed that a lot of time had passed inside the sphere. It could be inferred from the full beard on Silderrey’s face.

However, there was no way for Jin to know what happened between the two viewpoints the sphere showed.

…That means that everyone in the household looked only at you….

It was Temar who was lying on the bed.

There was no outward trauma, but he was thin and barely breathing. Silderray let out a heavy sigh and looked resentfully at the hospital bed and the ceiling.

Everyone wants to go… Damn it! Solderlet You traitor bastard! Does this mean that you keep your promise? Show up with me, damn you…!

As Silderray howled, a group of knights outside hurriedly entered the hospital room. They tried to stop Silderrey, but were unable to withstand his brute strength.

Sir Silderray! If even the king is like this, what are the other family members supposed to do? Please fix!

Isn’t that what the guardian spirit made the head of household like? Keep your voice down, Lord Silderley.

If it wasn’t Solderlet, who made the family head like this? Where and what was that incompetent god doing when the family head was attacked!

What kind of nonsense is that to the Guardian God, Silder Ray!

A woman who came in late grabbed Silder Ray by the shoulder. Like Silderrey, she was one of the Teenage Knights.

stupid hair?

Didn’t you hear the last command of the family head? Never resent the guardian spirit and fulfill the promise you made with the guardian spirit. Even while I was losing consciousness, he asked me several times.

Silderrey then trembled as if he was stunned.

Diana, are you saying you still believe in Solderlet after seeing this image of the family head…?

It doesn’t matter if I believe or not.

Look at this, you don’t believe in solderlets anymore! You feel the same way as I do, Diana. i don’t know you

My feelings are also not important. Silder Ray is important. That’s… the fact that it’s the name of the head of state. The command of the family head is absolute. We are the ones who made the laws of Runkandel! If you continue to show your ugly side, no matter how you are, I won’t just go over it.

under.

Follow the command of the head of the household. It is the only duty and hope left for us.

Diana beckoned and all the other knights left their beds except Silderrey.

For a long time, she hugged the man with superpowers who sobbed like a child.

GI Iik-!

Crackle… pss…

The gray orb distorted again.

However, this time, it was not as unstable as the first time, and it did not look like it would come back again.

The auras that formed the gray spheres were dispersing into particles. Not only that, but the subspace was also being broken into aura particles.

literally in an instant.

Jin came out of the two layers of subspace and stood in the middle of the Anzu Great Plain Baolai. It was the very point where he activated the ‘key’ with Murakan.

The moment you take a long breath and try to organize your thoughts.

Two strange objects appeared in front of Jin’s eyes.

It was a black orb made of aura and a piece of the greatsword that Silderay Runcandel used a thousand years ago.
