The 31st Piece Turns the Tables - Chapter 422

Episode 422

The marble gradually moved away from the night crow.

Degurr…

– Damn…

It was the worst situation.

The Time Stone, which was not affected by the time rupture, escaped from his hand.

In order to dismantle this difficult magic, direct contact with the bead is required, but due to leakage of magical power, the body’s coordination was not smooth.

There was no one to blame. Urdo, who was almost thrown away, exerted his last will and cut off Maradum’s hand.

Now there is almost no magical power left.

Direct lifting was impossible.

In that case, it would be better to fall off a cliff and be destroyed.

‘Yeah… that would be better.’

Tuk…

But the god of fate hated Ur. Everything he longed for was denied.

The Time Stone hit something and stopped.

‘… damn it.’

It was a day in which nothing came true according to Ur’s wishes.

Just complain for a moment.

In order to resolve the situation, understanding the situation came first.

‘That…’

The good news is that the object that the Time Stone rolled and hit was something that was absolutely not ordinary.

‘It’s Sirion’s battle hammer. ‘Perhaps…’

What the Time Stone collided with was a heavy battle hammer. It seemed to be Sirion’s favorite disease that had fallen to the floor.

Ur had little hope.

Sirion is a person called the King of Ash.

Even though he lost everything after encountering a bad opponent called Maradum, he felt an unusual strength.

And similar power flowed from the battle hammer he swung.

It is a favorite weapon wielded by the Ash King during the legendary era. There must be some special power.

Ur’s prediction was correct.

Whoa…

[Ash’s special ability activates.]

[Gives the Avatar of Ash effect to the nearest ally for a short time.]

[The Avatar of Ash resists all damage and can resist all magic.]

Snowfall For Ina Han So-mi, it was a miracle expressed in a few lines of message.

On the other hand, for Ur, it was a phenomenon so vivid that it felt right on his skin.

Ur instinctively understands the force emitted by the hammer and how things are progressing.

In this situation, no matter how cool-headed Ur was, he had no choice but to have hope.

‘If Sirion wakes up and takes the hammer…’

Then everything will be resolved.

All he had to worry about was the worst-case scenario that didn’t happen.

But…

as expected, the result completely ignored hope.

[All college students die and become the Avatar of Ash.]

[The Avatar of Ash resists all damage and can resist all magic.] [

Roll the Time Burst Resistance Dice.]

[The Time Burst Resistance Dice has a 4. It came out.]

[The college students are dying and resisting the time rupture.]

“… Huh?”

It was Han So-mi who woke up.

It seemed that she was the closest to the hammer of ash.

‘… Damn it!’

Ur hated himself for understanding this whole situation. Even if I didn’t intend to, it naturally occurred to me what action I should take to resolve the situation.

In his judgment, the group was currently facing a very difficult situation.

The easiest solution, direct contact between the Raven and the Stone of Time, failed.

It was also dangerous for Han So-mi to hold the Stone of Time and hand it to the Night Raven. Since the Time Rupture was activated, the Stone of Time was unstable, and it was a terrible story for someone other than the mage Ur to run with it in his hand. The unthinkable could happen.

In that case, the next best option was to destroy the Stone of Time.

The problem is that Han So-mi is the only one who can move at the moment.

Another problem is that anyone who directly destroys the Stone of Time takes a direct hit from the power contained within it.

‘Probably… I’ll be left in this gap of time, either old or young.’

Yes.

The entire group leaves for Star’s End, the original time zone, and is left alone in the gap of time.

Of course, if I went back and found a way, things could have been resolved easier than I thought. If it is as short as 10 minutes or an hour, you will be able to return to the original time with a healthy body.

But… when things get a little difficult, the story gets a little dark.

A problem that could be solved with a slight movement of the hour hand could not be resolved even after dozens of turns.

As long as 1 year.

No, he could not return even after decades or even a lifetime.

That is, it is thrown away.

If this is the fundamental problem of this situation, the only remaining problem will be Ur’s concerns stemming from this problem.

‘… I don’t have the confidence to explain. I’m not confident I can convince you.’

Ur tried to understand all phenomena throughout his life. What I did not understand, I either dismissed as inferior or tried hard to understand it.

As I lived like that, I developed my own obsession.

Ur couldn’t explain what he didn’t understand.

If he says to someone in less than 30 seconds, ‘You are left alone in the gap of time to wait.’ If I hear that, I will tear you to death right away.

Humans are creatures of distrust and negativity, and throughout our long history, we have always been suspicious of each other.

It was that kind of creature from the beginning. People are suspicious of others because they themselves deserve to be suspected.

“What, what… Why am I the only one moving…”

– ….

“Is everyone okay? hello? Why… what should I do….”

Ur started the conversation without having time to organize his thoughts. I was prepared to ramble miserably.

– … Hey girl. You have a mission.

“This voice is…”

A wizard introduced by Kangseol under the name Ur.

His voice rang in Han So-mi’s ears.

– There is not enough time. I stay up all night and have countless things to say to you. Why did this situation turn out this way? Why did I have no choice but to let things go this way? The hard work that went into this plus what you have to do now.

“… yes? “What are you talking about?”

I knew it would be like this.

While my mind was in a state of confusion, I talked hard, but not a single word reached the other person.

I suggested acting crazy.

– Pick up the hammer and break that stone.

“Why? Why should I do that? Rather, you… I can only hear your voice, but I can’t believe you’re imitating someone…”

This also didn’t work.

Humans are such creatures.

Some people say that the human body is mostly made up of water, but that is incorrect.

What makes a human being is countless doubts. It was humans who even doubted their own existence.

There was no time.

The opportunity given to Han So-mi will soon end.

At that moment, the option of lying appeared.

He is lying to Han So-mi. Breaking a stone with a hammer simply results in dispelling the magic.

That she wouldn’t suffer any loss. I tried to lie like that.

But his speech was speechless.

– I will stay away from this evil and stay close to good, and walk together as my master, the Snowman, leads. If you violate this! I will repent by disappearing from existence! Oh hohohoho!

These are the words Bornuil uttered after entering Ur’s body when he was subordinated to Kangseol in Alkatron.

Is lying really evil in this situation? So, wouldn’t existence be extinguished as soon as one tells a lie to Han So-mi?

Of course, the reason I couldn’t tell a lie wasn’t just because of these concerns.

‘… I don’t even want to lie.’

He is the original mage and has existed for countless periods of time, and the best he could come up with to prevent being caught in the cracks of time was to lure weak humans with lies.

This was not about questioning the legitimacy of a lie.

It was a problem that got to the root of existence. That’s why I said this.

– Wrong. I’m not confident that I can convince you in the remaining time.

A conclusion drawn from knowing humans.

– … Khhhhhhhhhhh … Have you ever said this? As a result, I ended up like that. What was the purpose of these guys who kept talking to someone like this about how they were right?

Han So-mi remembered his words in passing.

“When forced to make sacrifices.”

– okay.

Make sacrifices.

I couldn’t say those words.

Because you probably know anyway.

With these words, Ur gave up.

[The Ash Incarnation state will be lifted soon.]

But that was right then.

– …Han So-mi.

– Snowfall?

This was unexpected.

No matter what kind of will he had, Kang Seol’s consciousness was alive and well.

Indeed, it was truly special as the first person to overcome the wall and reach the highest level.

“brother? Oppa Kangseol!”

Ur gave up.

Even if Kang Seol’s will remained, he was in the same situation. I can’t convince her in time.

– Pick up the hammer.

“… yes?”

– And break the stone.

Ur laughed self-deprecatingly. This is a method that has already been done. It will only raise suspicion.

“Then… what happens?”

– You will be left here. It may be a while, maybe a little longer.

Since Ur and Kangseol were already one body, all of Ur’s thoughts were read by Kangseol.

“So… why is it only me…”

Ur felt that Kang Seol was an idiot who had no solution. I’d rather just tell a lie.

However, Han So-mi only asked Kang-seol once.

“But… why are you telling me that? “You can fool me.”

Ur was also a little surprised by that fact. Ur himself may not have known it, but Kangseol knew how to tell lies.

– Wait.

The moment he heard what Kangseol said, Ur’s entire spirit stood on edge.

‘This bastard…’

Kang Seol was now forcing a sacrifice. More vicious than Ur. And ruthlessly.

– Because I’m coming to get you.

Ur understood.

All of this.

What Kangseol said.

What he said was a lie, but it was not a lie.

The words “coming to pick you up” were words that should never be uttered carelessly.

The uniqueness of time magic, the necessary resources, and even weighing them according to the value of a woman named Han So-mi.

Nevertheless, Kang Seol said those words.

He does not think these words are false. I was planning on making it true.

Kang Seol will come to pick up Han So-mi, who was left behind in the nick of time.

‘Ah…’

Ur laughed.

Kang Seol’s comment without a solution was the only correct answer.

The words that Kangseol could have uttered could not be uttered.

Colleagues exchange a currency called trust with each other. Since Ur had never made companions in his life, he did not know how to use this currency or how to collect it, nor did he want to know.

Because I wanted to be perfect alone.

But the snowfall was different.

Kang Seol clearly understood this currency called trust.

The currency he had saved by sacrificing his effort and time shined at this moment.

Kujijic…

“It’s heavy…”

Han So-mi took the ashes in her hands without wasting time.

She believed in the snowfall and believed in his words.

That’s why I picked up a hammer.

He was the only one who made me lift the heavy hammer.

Whoa…

Sirion’s favorite disease.

The hammer that supported the era of hatred was held in the hands of Han So-mi.

Han So-mi’s body burned with mysterious energy.

“Uuuuu… ahhh!”

The hammer lifted powerfully upward struck the Stone of Time precisely.

Jooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!

[The ashes incarnation state has been lifted.]

Han So-mi’s body stopped in the same position where the hammer was struck.

The Stone of Time…

blah

blah blah…

shattered, creating countless cracks.

[The Stone of Time has been destroyed.]

[The dependent, the Ash Wizard Maradum, dies from the recoil.]

[Additional rewards are obtained.]

[The Time Rupture has been destroyed in a special way.]

[Additional rewards are obtained. ]

[Return to origin activates.]

…

The hammer shattered time.

And the moment the hammer came down, the values Ur had built up throughout his life were shaken.

He was born to teach those who are inferior and is perfect alone. Only the weak join together.

All those sentences started to crack.

…I began to doubt the truth.

– … understood.

Kwaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!

An enormous vortex of time sucked in the rest of the group except Han So-mi.

Ur, Snow, and Mariju, who were thrown out of the raven, were caught in a vortex and disappeared.

Whioooooooooooooooo…

this is it.

“Ugh… Where is Maradum Maradum….”

“It’s there! I collapsed! “He fell down!”

“Check his breathing!”

The dwarves of the Ash Throne approached the fallen Maradum and checked his body.

“He died.”

“Hmm….”

Sirion turned his head.

The ashes of his beloved disease fell to the ground, shattering the Stone of Time.

And next to him was a woman with a bent back.

Sirion approached her.

And I roughly guessed the situation.

She destroyed the Stone of Time. There were no other party members in sight.

Her appearance looked a lot like someone who was one of the group.

My back was bent, my skin was sagging, and my teeth were in jeopardy.

His eyes were cloudy and his hair was white.

“You…”

“Hehe… hehehe…”

Tears welled up in Han So-mi’s eyes.

“I… I think I was left here.”

“… is it.”

Somi Han was left alone in the nick of time. It was unclear whether she was left behind or abandoned.
