The 31st Piece Turns the Tables - Chapter 63
Episode 63
Tap… tap…
Water fell drop by drop in the dark space.
“Is he… dead?”
Karen, the gray knight scratching her head, could not accept this situation.
She had already experienced death once. What she faced after death was complete darkness, leaving no memories of being left alone in a space.
“So that means he’s not dead?”
The image of her brother Karuna holding her and pleading with her still lingered.
“Do I still have regrets?”
It was then.
Crackling… Crackling…
The dark space became bright for a moment. And someone’s vision was also visible to Karen.
“Huh… Huh….”
My heart was pounding…
my heart was pounding.
The world seen through someone’s eyes.
A lively and three-dimensional appearance as if you were there in person. It felt like I was riding a horse because my vision was shaking up and down.
“A memory…?”
This was clearly someone’s memory.
“I have to go… I’ll be waiting for you.”
Doo doo doo doo…
A deep voice.
Karen immediately recognized whose voice it was.
“Karuna! “It’s Karuna!”
A voice that is both happy and sad.
Karen followed his gaze with a surprised expression, as if going back and forth between heaven and hell.
Gulp… Gulp…
Karen’s eyes turned to his lower abdomen.
blood.
He must have climbed into the saddle without being able to stop the bleeding, and every time the horse picked up speed, blood was dripping down.
“Karuna!”
Karen shouted urgently, but her voice did not reach Karuna.
“Haa… ha… Karen… said she would wait… and promised… that she would go back… I…”
Tuk.
My vision went out just like that.
Whoa!
The sound of clearly falling from a horse, the feeling of one’s body floating in the air.
Clap…
Clap… Clap…
“Did you fall?”
Karen was embarrassed as if her body had fallen directly into the cliff.
There was no change after that.
The only feeling is that my body is being swept away by the current and is heading somewhere.
Karen felt that this memory was that of his brother Karuna.
“You’re really coming back.”
“okay.”
“….”
Karuna’s figure appeared in the dark space behind Karen.
With his helmet removed, his face resembled Karen’s, but the lines were a little thicker.
“…What happened? “Someone called you…”
“I don’t know, but I was attacked on my way to the imperial capital.”
“I don’t even know that…”
“Karen.”
Karuna opened her eyes straight and looked at Karen.
“It doesn’t matter anymore.”
“Not important? why?”
“Because a different era has come.”
“But…”
“Montra is no longer in this world. “Everyone in Montra you knew is dead.”
“….”
“The same goes for your death and my death. Whatever happened doesn’t matter anymore. To live in a new era….”
“A new era? Do not be ridiculous! “How can you say something like that!”
Squeak…
The space became unstable for a moment due to her anger.
“Jin… Jin would have died in the end… from those usurpers…”
“It’s too bad, but all life in the world will die.”
Karuna calmly comforted her.
“Me, you, and Jindo.”
“…I don’t know. “What are you trying to say?”
“Let’s go together to a new world.”
“For what?”
“Anything.”
“Is there something you want in the new world, Karuna?”
“No, I don’t know.”
“Then why are you asking me to come with you?”
“It’s not to go to a new world.”
Karuna approached Karen.
“Because I want to be together.”
“…Karuna.”
“When I looked at the world beyond the empire, I realized that the empire was really small. “The fence wasn’t everything in the world.”
“I… I….”
“The world is wide, Karen. “It’s full of mysterious things that we don’t understand.”
Karen’s heart was leaning towards Karuna’s suggestion. But there was only one obstacle holding her back.
“I lost everything. You, Jin, and the Empire. Now what do I have to burn for? Now it’s all burned down…”
Karuna gave the same answer to that question as before.
“Anything.”
“…Unlucky.”
“It’s been a while since I said that. Well, maybe it would be good to find a reason why we should burn for something?”
“Looking for a reason…”
The knight, who was left with nothing but ashes, closed his eyes at his brother’s words.
“Come with me, Karen. “Let’s go to the sea together.”
And I opened my eyes again to his words. Her eyes slowly turned red. Once again, I have a reason.
Sigh…
She looked at the collapsing space and answered.
“Okay, take me with you.”
The moment Karuna was suddenly caught in the black lightning, Snowfall had an intuition.
‘Are changes happening to Karuna too?’
It was something he did to avoid losing Karuna, but the situation became more intense.
‘If something goes wrong with Karuna…’
Although the probability of that happening was slim, Snowfall was still worried. But what can you do?
‘I have no choice but to wait.’
Shoot…
It rained for quite a while.
And I waited silently for Karen and Karuna in the rain for an even longer time.
– It’s like a dog waiting for the owner who left the house ㅠㅠ
– Honestly, everyone in the room here is waiting the same way haha
– You have to be together at times like this to be a real fan!
– Then, why don’t you sponsor it?
– Shhh, don’t talk to me like that.
“Cough… cough…”
A strong cough came out naturally.
It was inevitable after being rained for so long.
There was no way to avoid the rain, and I thought it was funny to stay far away to avoid the rain, so I just got hit.
Damn it…
it seemed like the wait was finally coming to an end. The black lightning began to split.
‘Successful…?’
Fajiiiikeik-!
The black space enveloped by lightning finally revealed itself after a long time.
Ssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssz- of…
What appeared inside was a woman radiating an alluring black energy.
A woman dressed in shadows and with a veil made of shadows from the tip of her nose to her chin.
Her eyes were red like the sun.
[Twin Knights: Successfully summon Karen’s shadow.]

[High wisdom assists the ability.]
[Mind manipulation resistance is distorted into a haze and passed down.]
[Summons only exert 50% of the original power.]
A huge amount of Traditional message.
Even before Kang Seol could finish reading the message, a new message came to mind.
[The twin knights’ connected souls are activated.]
[The grades of both summons are strengthened to legendary grade.]
[The twin knights’ balance is activated.]
[The abilities of the two summons are added together and divided accordingly.]
[Twin Knights: There are 42 days, 16 hours, 38 minutes and 26 seconds left until Karuna’s transmission is completed.]
‘What does this mean?’
Kang Seol was momentarily dazed by the incomprehensible messages.
Even so, the last messages were completely unpredictable.
‘Connected souls?’
Karen’s special abilities.
It seemed like it was probably Karuna’s special ability before the problem arose.
Quite simply, this ability raised the ranks of both knights from heroic to legendary. This alone is shocking, but the other two messages also had a huge impact.
‘Combine the abilities and then divide them?’
What this means is that as long as the balance between the two is maintained, one side will not sag or become too strong.
Also, the last message was a complete surprise.
“Transfer the story to Karuna….”
‘Hey’ sponsored Madness by 300!

– Karuna: Take it out, you crazy people…
– Ah, if I got Karen, I would have to take this much of a penalty lol.
Kang Seol checked all the messages and sighed.
When you put it all in and hit the calculator, it was definitely a huge benefit.
‘But what is this uneasy feeling?…’
Kangseol looked at Karen’s status window that appeared before her eyes.
[Twin Knight: Karen]
Title: None
Grade: Legendary
Race: Shadow
Level: 9
HP: 1460/1460
MP: 840/840
Possessed stats: 0
Strength 102 (+36) Agility 81 (+28) Stamina 108 (+38)
Intelligence 65 (+23) Wisdom 62 (+22) Spirit 76 (+27)
Talents: Disguise 2 Interrogation 2
Truly overwhelming abilities.
Among the pure abilities, which were only 50% of the original strength, the main abilities, strength and stamina, exceeded a whopping 100.
‘That means the 100% ability score is over 200.’
Kang Seol was thankful that Karuna and Jamad did not die from her.
Her basic abilities were monstrous, but her additionally increased abilities due to snowfall abilities and item effects were also worth seeing.
‘If you have this ability without wearing any equipment, how strong are you when you wear the equipment?’
This was revealed in numbers as if Karen had to have this level of gap in her abilities to be a legendary summon.
– Behave well!
– Because if you do something like that, it’s a coup!
– Do you think I have red eyes for no reason?
Of course, even though the abilities were like this, the transmission of abilities was generally disappointing.
‘Most of the abilities have been sealed… and the level difference is that big, so what can we do?’
No matter how much ability you have, if you can’t utilize it, it’s useless.
Kangseol was thankful that at least part of his ability was fully passed on thanks to Galota’s Tongue helping him pass it on.
‘But most of the major abilities have been passed down, especially the special abilities.’
Two special abilities and a few abilities that could be used as main powers were passed down, so it was a great deal.
The reward for the days of hard work making the jelly was great.
– Eh? But didn’t you do that?
– A machine?
– When Shumsoo becomes a demon recruit, he has to say hello to the summoner first.
– Really?
Snowfall also knew this.
That’s why he approached Karen.
“Karen.”
“I haven’t acknowledged you yet.”
“…what?”
“So, I need to think about why I still need to serve you.”
A completely unexpected situation occurred.
Karen was a stronger enemy than any other summons that Kang Seol had had so far.
‘Is it because it’s legendary?’
I would rather think so.
“Tsk tsk… that’s fun.”
Jamard laughed in the shadow space when he saw the embarrassed snowfall. Karen looked there for a moment and said.
“Well, please take care of me from now on. A troll and a young king.”
“I am not a king….”
“That is what you say. “Don’t take it seriously.”
“…Whew.”
Snowfall touched my forehead.
– Legendary level summons! Turns out to be a shock tomboy.
– I requested a return for Snowman, but it was not accepted.
– He who wears a crown, bear the weight…
– It’s so fucking heavy… LOL
– I think I’m going to break my neck…
Anyway, just when I thought I had taken a break from the dangerous situation.
“uh? What is this?”
While Kang Seol was looking away for a moment, he noticed Karen bending down to open something.
Looking closely, what she was touching was a reward box from a series of adventures.
“That! Don’t touch it carelessly…”
Clap-
[Check the dead man’s box, which is the highest reward.]
