The 31st Piece Turns the Tables - Chapter 179
Episode 179
Ur began to explain step by step.
“The easiest way to resurrect a shadow wolf is to turn it back into a summon. “Once a strong relationship is formed, it is easier to return to its original form.”
“But didn’t you say that’s not possible?”
“Okay, there are two reasons why this method can’t be used. First of all, the shadow wolf wasn’t even your summon in the first place? “Secondly, you are your pathetic shadow.”
“My shadow?”
Whirling-!
The little spirit explained arrogantly, with the expression of an old man with a flowing beard, as if he was omnipotent when it came to handling his own body.
“That’s right, your shadow is terrible.”
“What is that….”
“I took a close look at the spirits staying in your shadow. It was pretty good, huh? “There are children who have various circumstances… but you are currently immature to deal with them.”
“….”
– Let’s hear it, let’s hear it…
– Come on! The snowman may be a little immature, but you are saying too much!
– The kid is good!
With a grumpy expression on his face, Ur takes out the snack he brought out earlier and eats it.
Tsk tsk tsk…
“But now that this body, the pinnacle of magic, has joined in… and the shadow wolf has also joined in? “It may not be possible to get in in the first place, but it will probably explode.”
“who?”
“Of course your shadow.”
“….”
Jiang Xue was extremely embarrassed.
‘Have I grown too fast?’
Hexagons are often used when evaluating someone’s abilities. If it grows evenly, its abilities will resemble a perfect hexagon, but the current snowfall is probably closer to a triangle than a hexagon.
‘Is the quality of the summoned beast at the level of combat ability and rapport?…’
Ur was pointing out that the quality of shadow magic and the total amount of shadows were lower than other abilities.
‘But the shadow space is expanded in its own way…’
Purga’s blessing and the coordinator’s uniqueness, plus the effect of wearing the abomination.
There were already a number of options to increase the maximum amount of shadow space.
‘And yet it’s not enough…’
The absolute total amount was definitely not enough.
Considering the level of the summons he had in his early 20s, it was true that the shadow space was insufficient.
Stage 2 Legendary Stage 1 Transcendence Stage 1 Immortal Stage.
In particular, the twin knights were showing signs that their rank would rise again soon after meeting the black knight, which made it even more of a problem.
He said as Kangseol listened to Ur’s words with a serious expression.
“Don’t be too disappointed. The shadow is also a branch extending from me. “If you pay just a little bit of attention, it’s not a task to train you.”
– Ur… you were a good guy?
– Still, I have no intention of letting him go…
– The owner has no intention of giving Dobby socks…
“First of all, you need to know one thing. No matter how successful you were in communicating with the shadow wolf, you couldn’t properly handle even half of its power. “Do you even know?”
“Half of power?”
“Yeah, but actually, I can’t say it’s your fault. He’s probably never even seen his group. The best way to survive in the wild is to learn everything from your parents. It can’t fail and is even stable. You know what? “Shadow wolves don’t grow that big to begin with.”
“But why was Coco so big?”
“You must have chosen that yourself. To grow bigger. If that power had been used elsewhere, it would have been several times stronger. Because shadow wolves are a notorious race. There…”
Ur chuckled.
“There are powers that are just right for you now.”
“A power suitable for me?”
“Okay, I’ll tell you about that little by little. Anyway, since I can’t revive it as a summon, I’ll have to choose another method. “When this body decides… I think it would be a good idea to use your other abilities.”
“If it were my other abilities…”
Kangseol rarely used other abilities except summoning.
Especially in the case of magic, I didn’t even touch it.
‘Oh really?’
Ur said, raising his finger.
“Your noisy crows. “That’s a creature, right?”
“that’s right.”
“It’s about making cocoa or something into a creature.”
“Then it can’t be done, right? Reason….”
“Of course, we have to refine the source and recreate it. Rest assured, your memories and reason will continue intact. “This is the kind of clan that was born that way from the beginning.”
“Well, that’s a good thing… but how?”
“It’s difficult right now.”
“….”
“To attempt that method, you will need a significant amount of Shadow Essence. But… isn’t there one?”
“What is the essence of shadow?”
“It is literally sacrificing the shadow. Well, since it’s a return to the origin anyway, it’s not a painful or cruel process, but an offering is an offering. “In the past, creatures were caught alive and used as sacrifices, but I don’t know if that is the right thing to do from a modern perspective.”
“Was that right in the past?”
“It wasn’t right even then. “But it was public.”
– You commit crimes like you breathe?
– I feel like I’m talking to a big guy who washed his hands lol
“Anyway, let this body find a way.”
Kangseol looked at Ur who was ranting for a moment and then asked.
“Ur, what is your strength now?”
“You can’t use even 1/10th of your original strength properly. This is not a joke. However… in the case of this body, the ability is greatly dependent on the authority, so if you use the authority wisely, it is possible to narrow the gap.”
warrant.
This will apply to both magicians and mavericks.
‘Thanks to the singularity, I was able to take one more…’
Ur said.
“I don’t know how you did it, but since I preserved the power of this body as much as possible, the recovery of strength will be faster than expected. And… if it weren’t for an unknown situation in the first place, you wouldn’t have been my opponent.”
– This is Ur (0 wins, 0 draws, 1 loss)
– No excuses haha
– But in fact, we almost lost haha
“Alkatron’s morale was not properly condensed as expected, so his resurrection was delayed and his recovered strength was below expectations. It’s really strange… but maybe there’s a water leak somewhere. Well, bygones are bygones. Hey summoner. “I also have a goal.”
“Finding traces of Kagon?”
“That’s right, you are perceptive. We will find traces of Kagon by your side. “I need to find out why the powerful Khagon Empire disappeared and why there is not a single fragment of Khagon in your memories.”
Snowfall was also something I was interested in.
Also about how he was able to read the words there.
“Even so, my work comes first.”
Of course, it was an afterthought.
“Of course, your work will be very trivial compared to mine. “I’ll get it over with quickly.”
“Well…”
Jamard laughed secretly in the shadow space.
* * *
Doo doo doo doo doo!
People look at the back of the black thunder troll as it leaves after confirming its identity.
Among the expedition members, they were members who took a detour.
“Oh my god… they even gave us food and then left.”
“Are they the Black Thunder we know?”
“As you know, he looks big and scary…”
The Iron Lion asked Mael.
“… How did it get by?”
“It was a bit more difficult than this. Well, I went there comfortably thanks to Snowman, but…”
The Iron Lion’s gaze shifted from Mael to the snowfall.
This expedition was a difficult mission even for Cheolsaja. However, the two who went against his wishes from the beginning of the expedition were actually the core of the expedition’s strength.
The wire lion spoke out of his mouth without realizing it.
“It’s amazing… really.”
“… He must be a great person.”
“Maybe I’m getting old because I can’t accept it. Hey, what’s your name?”
“Mael.”
“What does it mean?”
“Star child.”
The wire lion said, stroking his chin.
“You mean well. “I remember.”
“What is your name?”
“This is Neal the Wire Lion. “It doesn’t matter if you just call me Wire Lion.”
“Neil. “I will remember.”
“When this is over, everyone will disperse, but I will make sure to engrave your names.”
In any case, there was no particular danger while the expedition team went up the mist hills.
The wheels of the carriage continued to turn and they finally passed the border of Adeline.
The news that the expedition had safely passed the border of Adeline was good news for Libra.
No matter what, people are coming who will explain the results clearly.
Doo doo doo doo…
The attention of the wizards residing within the tower was turned to the expedition to the extent that all work carried out by the Libra Magic Tower was temporarily halted.
“It’s coming! “I see a procession!”
“Stupid guy! You were supposed to post the report by afternoon! I paid close attention and made it on time….”
“Ah! “I’m sorry.”
It wasn’t just the young wizard who was paying attention.
“Waaaaaa!”
“The expedition is back!”
But someone poured cold water into the hot atmosphere.
“… there are fewer carriages.”
“Of course it will decrease….”
“It will decrease too much….”
“….”
In an instant, all the wizards became quiet.
Other Zodiac magic towers also dispatched to hear the results of this expedition.
Among them, the people who interacted with Kang Seol were Blaine and Prine.
“Prinn…”
“He… did it.”
“Are you saying that scale… was the best?”
“yes! “In fact, it brings a brighter future than the results I vaguely saw!”
Blaine laughed bitterly.
“Then it is done. “He gave me strength.”
Kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk
.
The carriage door was opened and the personnel got out.
No one looked healthy.
“….”
Chin…
The gatekeeper was shocked when Frannan got off with one eye bandaged.
“Saint Sir!”
Frannan said.
“We are going to report on the results of the expedition and discuss future events, so please summon the other saints right now.”
* * *
The expedition team felt like monkeys in a zoo.
[The rest begins.]
[This is a simple base.]
[The base rest begins.]
[Rest 10. Libra’s Magic Tower]
Rest 10. ‘The Libra’s Magic Tower’ The Libra’s Magic
Tower is in charge of the major axis of the Zodiac.
Unlike the normal situation where outsiders cannot stay inside the tower for a long time due to the extreme dislike of outsiders, many outsiders are currently staying inside the tower.
Those who participated in the expedition cannot leave until the expedition’s treatment is determined according to the current guidelines within the tower.
Adventurers must fully rest and train here or in other rest areas before preparing for the next adventure.
Goal: Rest and maintenance.
I feel tired when I fail to achieve my goals.
Current remaining time 「Unknown」
‘Will the time limit run out only after the expedition’s results are reported? This is a good thing. More than that…’
Kangseol was now in a breathtaking space with Frannan.
The other members of the expedition team are taking a break after undressing, but why is he sitting with Frannan with such a scruffy look on his face?
That was because he was a person very deeply involved in this expedition.
Lidwen and Cartezin.
The two, another sign of Libra, were sitting across from Kangseol and Frannan with grim expressions.
Cartejin, who had a finely grown white beard, said.
“Are you telling us to believe that now?”
“What if you don’t believe it?”
“It’s crazy… It’s completely crazy…”
“Libra is dead. No, more accurately, it was mixed with the soul of a great evil.”
“For something to be said after losing the majority of the expedition, it has no context…”
At that time, Bornuil, in the form of Ur, intervened.
“Ohhohoho… Cartejin, you’re still dragging your feet with useless things.”
“…Bornouil?”
“Didn’t I tell you repeatedly that it was blocking your progress? Ohhohoho… isn’t it?”
“Bo Bornouil! Are you really a scale?”
“I don’t know how to make you believe it, but it’s true anyway. “I am Bornouil.”
Bornuil told them everything that had happened in Alcatron and the expedition’s struggles.
“Frannan’s eyes are like that….”
“It’s a pity, but there was no way. The way he made a decision was also impressive.”
“….”
Frannan said.
“We don’t think what happened here should be spread.”
“what! No, then…”
“I agree. “If they hear a rumor that a great evil has come out into the world, magic-mad people and power-craving monarchs will immediately try to dissect Bornuil.”
“Ha… That’s a difficult problem. “Can we silence the expedition team?”
“If you provide sufficient compensation, at least the rumor will not spread before you are ready. “Isn’t that right?”
“That is a reasonable statement. “We will prepare a compensation plan based on the report.”
“great.”
Ridwen said, looking at Bornuil.
“But… do you plan to perform the duties of the tower owner with that body?”
“Why did I do that?”
“… yes?”
“I am a publicly dead person. Libra has lost its top lord, so it must welcome a new top lord. “We need your input.”
Bornuill looked around at the three of them carefully and said.
“Which of these three is suitable for Libra?”
“….”
“….”
Frannan closed his eyes and the other Aspects rolled their eyes. Frannan looked exhausted.
Cartejin said.
“Frannan ruined my research once before. “Do you remember?”
“Ah… that? “I was just trying to help, but the result was wrong.”
“Apologise.”
“what?”
“Apologize right now.”
“It’s useless… I understand. “I still feel sorry about that.”
“good night. “Then I want you to be my balance.”
Ridwen glanced at Cartejin, and Frannan responded with a dumbfounded expression.
“what?”
“After I forgive you for what happened back then, you are the most suitable wizard for Libra.”
“You’re crazy… a drunkard…”
“I’ve been thinking about this for a long time. This was before you even left. “It’s just that things work out the way they should.”
Lidwen also agreed.
“yes. It’s something we’ve shared for a long time. The issue of who will be the next Libra. Kkeukkeuk….”
“By ourselves?”
Ridwen and Cartejin looked at each other.
“Her opinion was fully reflected.”
“… Yurin?”
“She always praised you. “Except for the dreary part… Well, it’s still dreary, but it’s a lot better now, right?”
Frannan seemed to be out of his mind and kept repeating Yurin’s name.
“Yurin… me….”
“You are a great wizard, Frannan. “It seems like you’re not the only one who doesn’t think that way.”
“….”
“Become a scale even for Yurin’s sake.”
Then Bornouil entered the conversation again.
“Ohhohoho! “We’ll talk about it among ourselves, but for now, we’ll have to prioritize treating our guests.”
“That’s right, this kid saved the expedition?”
“If you look at it broadly, it would mean that bigger things were also saved.”
“And I plan to be with Bornuil in the future… I guess I’ll have to compensate you separately.”
Ridwen, Cartesin, and Borneuil shared their opinions.
“How about a lie-detection baton?”
“It’s boring.”
“What about a pair of male and female fantasy butterflies?”
“It’s not a return that an adventurer can manage.”
“Then…”
I don’t like this, I don’t like that either.
Bornouil refused everything they suggested, giving reasons.
“Aren’t you doing this on purpose?”
“Is there something you want? “You’re being unreasonable, aren’t you?”
“Ohhohoho… Is that so?”
“Tell me what you want.”
Bornuil took a quick look and put in the firewood for them to burn.
“Coffin of Order.”
Drunk…
Drunk…
“Bornouil!”
“Are you out of your mind?”
“Ohhohoho….”
Bornouil just laughed, perhaps out of embarrassment.
