The Player Hides His Past - Chapter 163
Episode 163. Another natural enemy relationship (1)
I walked around the Magic Tower with Matisse.
Even if I walked, it was only a few steps.
Now there is no time to sit down and have a conversation.
“I have something to tell Chief Lee Ho-yeol.”
The subject of conversation was, of course, the elf. Matisse seemed to know as much about elves as Yugwid or Marcelo. There was a reason.
“It was a time when we wandered the continent to establish black magic.”
It seemed that Matisse was out of the tower more often than the other mages.
Now that I am in charge of the tower, if the reason is plausible. So, if you didn’t write down nonsense like Benshee William, it wasn’t impossible to get out of the tower.
‘But it wasn’t common in the mage tower in the past to jump out.’
It must be proof that the magic tower had high expectations for Matisse.
Before Marcelo appeared.
Because it was Matisse, who was considered a strong candidate for the next chief mage.
“I have often come across passages about elves in ancient books.”
“Do you remember that?”
“That’s right.”
To sum up what Matisse said next, it was simple.
…isn’t it an elf joke?
In short, in the world of Arcana, elves were the only chosen race. With the Dragon, the strongest creature in Arcana in name and reality!
A flawless appearance is basic.
It is born in the form of an adult in the World Tree.
His physical and mental abilities are unmatched by humans.
To put it simply, the elves were the race that took all the good things and attached them to them.
That alone was enough.
Isn’t it for nothing that the people who have it add up?
“Like dragons, they are said to enjoy the ages of eternity. Of course it’s just a legend. The truth is, no one knows.”
The moment I heard those words, the back of my neck went cold.
…So you’re saying that elves with abilities like that aren’t cheap? After quietly staying in a place called Sisley, he suddenly came out to the Arcana Continent because that wasn’t enough.
My head was pounding, but I couldn’t express it.
I spoke calmly.
Then, he entered the portal that Matisse had manifested.
“Then it would be a good opportunity to ascertain the truth.”
It’s cheap…
No, there’s nothing good about consuming mana needlessly in the yard facing an elf. A view that changes in an instant. Soon I was amazed at my judgment.
A bloody smell that penetrates the sense of smell.
The scarred giant Rockkid.
Finally to the players.
You did a good job saving your mana.
“Stop.”
First of all, this guy’s snout jumped out.
…Because I spit it out and think about it like I always do.
I guess this is a big deal.
Since [Natural Enemy Relations] didn’t activate, the demon must have been eliminated.
The problem is that many demons.
In other words, who defeated him in this brief amount of time?
You can guess just by looking at the atmosphere.
First of all, the players couldn’t do anything. Because at this point, there is probably no player other than me who can deal with level 900 demon-type monsters.
And it wouldn’t be Rock Kid either.
Unless you have predicted the future and moved.
It would be impossible in terms of time.
Then there is only one possibility.
That elf killed all the demons by himself.
That wasn’t enough, so I made Rock Kid that way.
reason?
I don’t know anything like that. However, it is only natural that Grandfel’s pride could not stand still. So, it must have been spitting out the words.
‘…it’s up to me to take care of the aftermath.’
Let’s think soberly.
Can I fight against that elf?
Even Lockkid of the Shadow Mercenary Corps became like that.
Could such a thing be possible?
I don’t know if [Natural Enemy Relations] has been activated.
As much as his specialty is understanding the subject.
I know very well that I can never win.
Then, what about Matisse, my corner of trust?
A surging, heterogeneous mana.
Does the strong recognize the strong?
Matisse seemed to be trying his best from the start.
The dragon horse war that comes to mind at the moment.
It is the dragon that gave defeat to the magic tower of the world.
Elves are treated similarly to dragons.
I finally realized what I was doing.
Anyway, you earn money with words…!
But no more self-blame.
Even if the elf in front of me was too much of a burden to blame on Grandfel, it was too much of a burden. Let’s start with the magic power. Even if he had risen to the level of swordsmanship, there was no need to give him close combat that the opponent wanted…
It was the moment when he was desperately rolling his head.
[A ‘hierarchical order of blessing’ occurs to the elf Elsidore.]
A message popped up in front of my eyes.
…flinch!
“!”
The elf stopped.
What surprised me more than anyone was neither me nor Matisse, but the person involved.
According to the information that popped up in the elf message, it must be Elsidore.
Elsidore said in a trembling voice.
“…what the hell are you?”
This is Ho-yeol Lee.
It won’t be difficult to answer at least by name.
But it’s not ‘you’, it’s ‘you’.
There was no way I could answer an informal question.
But I wonder why it wasn’t my name.
“How can four humans get Mother’s blessing…!!”
Words passing through my mind at the moment.
[Blessing of the First World Tree].
[The hierarchy of blessings].
[Elf].
Finally I realized.
‘Was the blessing of the first world tree related to elves?’
It was because of the effect of the blessing that the guess was confirmed.
Even if we assume that the effect of life force magic regeneration can be so. It was to the point where I couldn’t understand the effect of a higher concept than ‘affinity’ called ‘rejection’.
[The blessing of the first world tree refuses to age.]
There was no particular reason for elves to live forever.
Elsidore spewed life at me.
“I can’t tolerate it. I can not admit it.”
“…?”
“I will take Mother’s blessings away from you.”
Matisse, who was silently listening by the side, looked bewildered.
I would do just that.
I raised the strange magic power to the utmost.
It wasn’t enough that Elsidore had hardened.
It’ll feel like you’re just talking about blessings or something.
I moved my gaze away from Elsidore.
I looked around.
Then he said to Elsidore.
“Was the purpose only a blessing?”
“what?”
“Did he commit such atrocities because of the blessing?”
Everywhere is covered with Rock Kid’s blood.
Even the faces of the players who were white with fear.
However, Elsidore was not aware of it at all.
“You speak incomprehensible words.”
can’t you understand?
“I just trampled on it because it was blocked. demon or human.”
I, Lee Ho-yeol, was a horse I could endure.
But it wasn’t Grandfel.
I said to Matisse.
“May I ask for Matisse Lockid’s treatment?”
“I will follow your word.”
“Thank you.”
Everything has a procedure.
It’s good to deal with Elsidore, but first to heal the fatally wounded Rock Kid. Even if it was an employment relationship, it was also a valuable power that participated in the holy war.
I continued talking to Elsidore.
“Regardless of the reason, I will strictly hold you accountable for this action.”
“You are arrogant. To the point where I want to stop breathing right now.”
“I will also reflect an attitude that cannot be found in formality.”
“…formal?”
“I will also reflect on what took up my afternoon time.”
“…?”
Elsidore’s brow twisted.
What kind of bullshit do you want to be?
Yes, even if everything else is like that.
You wouldn’t even guess that he was upset about tea time.
But, change your mind and think about it.
“Is this blessing so coveted?”
It’s the same with you talking bullshit.
I don’t know about blessings.
It means that swinging the sword was self-indulgence beyond the line.
At my question, Elsidore’s face became even more distorted.
“I don’t know how you stole our blessing, but don’t be smug like it was yours. you don’t know What does mother’s blessing mean?”
speak straight
Yes, I know the effect of the blessing of the World Tree, but I don’t know the meaning.
However, no matter how excellent the blessing of the World Tree may be. Like you, I have no intention of stabbing an unrelated person for a blessing.
As long as pride exists in this heart.
“I don’t need any blessings.”
Furthermore, there is no such thing as a blessing to Grandfel, who has high self-esteem. Because it was enough without it. Elsidore’s voice began to tremble violently.
An uncontrollable life began to flow.
“…Nonsense.”
hierarchy of blessings.
Even if you don’t know the exact effect, let’s be thankful.
It was because he was able to speak so brazenly thanks to completely suppressing Elsidore’s movements. Of course, there was no such thing as an outward expression of relief.
I muttered calmly, as always.
“But it makes sense.”
“…?”
An elf, Elsidore, whose blessings were stolen and cost him a thousand dollars.
“There are blessings for those of you who have lost your pride, but it’s only a mana.”
“…!”
Because there is not enough fan in it.
“It means that you were abandoned by the World Tree as a matter of course.”
“!!!”

devastation.
The sight of Lockkid being hacked to pieces by the elves was brutal.
To the extent that it could not be broadcast on regular broadcasts. Wolf opened his mouth in place of Kichi, who was drunk and fell on the table.
“All ready. I will take care of you this time too, old man.”
“I wanted to be quiet, but things happened.”
“…that’s what I told you not to do!”
“Oh, it’s annoying.”
A relationship made by contract or money.
There was no such thing as friendship between the members of the Shadow Mercenary Corps.
However, the death of the member soon ruined the reputation of the shadow mercenaries.
It meant that I couldn’t just watch Lockkid suffer.
Knock –
Alkari drank the potion and raised her magic power.
In the meantime, a video was floating on the screen.
Similarly, it was a relay from a NetTuber player on the battlefield.
3rd seat Henderson calmly evaluated the battle.
“There’s no chance of winning!”
Henderson.
If Lockkid was an axe, Henderson was a fighter wielding a giant hammer.
That’s why it was Henderson who knew Rockkid’s strength better than anyone else.
“Maybe we can’t get enough!”
To block Lockkid’s blow with a single, insignificant sword.
That alone is amazing.
Unlike Lockkid, who was prepared to die, the elf wasn’t even using his power.
Clack—
said Wolf, loading his crossbow.
“You never know until you try something.”
“Haha! That’s right!”
“By the way, I’m not urging the old man…”
A high level magic portal.
I know it’s not easy to express.
Still, it was dangerous for Rock Kid to wait any longer.
Alkari sighed heavily.
“There are too many expectations from an old man who is not even a wizard. It must be because his eyes grew high after seeing the Mage Tower wizards and Lord Hoyeol. Portal manifestation is a magic that requires tremendous concentration from the search process. Do you know?”
pouring screams.
In any case, it was said that he was doing his best.
It was the moment when Wolfe was patient with his legs trembling.
“Uh uh uh?!”
The golden calf tavern fell into silence.
Voices of hope came from everywhere.
The movement of magic that swayed on the screen.
because of the portal.
“…the old man?”
You could do it, but did the old man act hard for no reason?
Wolf looked towards Alkari and was startled.
“Now it is an interference process. it’s still far wait.”
That wasn’t Alkari’s portal.
in the magical glow.
It was the players who first recognized its identity.
“This is Lee Ho-yeol!!”
…Awesome heat?
It wasn’t unusual for Ho-yeol to appear where the devil appeared.
From giants to demons.
Wherever the devil appeared, he was there.
But the strange things started now.
“Are you watching Wolf! That monster has stopped!”
Just like it did for Rock Kid, there is no question and answer.
The elf that had been rushing at Ho-yeol had stopped.
I wondered if it was magic, so I looked at the 6-seok Isabella.
Dori Dori—
she shook her head.
It was the sound of not feeling any magic power.
Cries erupted from everywhere.
“What is he saying now? I can’t hear anything!”
“I think it was because it was taken from a distance.”
“…Well, I guess it’s too much to want to take a picture of this up close, right?”
Hoyeol and Elf.
The two seemed to be having a conversation, but I couldn’t hear them. However, the shadow mercenaries had excellent informants who could guess the contents of the conversation just by the shape of their mouths.
9 Seok DeCheve opened his mouth.
“I asked the magician accompanying me to heal Lockkid.”
“!”
“And… you said you were going to take responsibility for that?”
Even the screen was uneven, so I couldn’t understand all the conversations.
That was enough.
Wolf let out a small laugh involuntarily.
“It’s been a while since I’ve had an outsider who cares about mercenaries.”
At that moment, Alkari shouted.
“Okay everyone hurry up!”
portal manifestation.
There was no more patience.
The eyes of all members of the Shadow Mercenary Corps, including Wolf, suddenly changed.
‘No matter how hot-tempered he is.’
Wolf was aware of Hoyeol’s physical abilities. The ability to learn something, including shooting, was unmatched, but at this point, if you compare only simple physical abilities… ‘It was obviously lower than Rock Kid.
‘
Dealing with an elf who overpowered such a rock kid?
Even if he is hot-tempered, he will never be taken lightly.
Wolf made the decision in his head.
As much practical experience as Wolf.
The opinions of the other members were not significantly different.
“It would be better to subdue it quickly!”
Go with all your might from the start.
The moment the shadow mercenaries raised their weapons.
The battlefield came into view.
exactly.
“…Sir Hoyeol?”
I could see the passion that brought the elf to its knees.

I realized
[The hierarchy of blessings].
Isn’t this a more exclusive skill for enemies than [Relationship with the Natural Enemy]?
