The Player Hides His Past - Chapter 312
Episode 312. It’s time for you to regain it too (1)
Legend of Akkshan, hero of the new era.
When the message came up, the back of my head was tingling and I felt unfair. No, it’s good that you guys become legends. But when it materializes, what will I become with tears in my eyes as I look at the southern sea?!
At the very least, I would not have grumbled if I had become a legend with a time difference. No matter how fast the time on the Arcana continent is four times faster than in reality.
To the point where it feels like becoming a legend is part of the diversion operation.
It’s that you came back too quickly.
Our Akkshan seniors…!
Of course, I know that the seniors who materialized as legends are not real.
I also know that the real seniors burn their tenacity in the belly of bad omens and in hell.
It’s not that I’m going to revise my promise to reunite with them.
It’s just…
‘These gentlemen are still selfish.’
The problem was that Akkshan’s materialized demon hunters were really no different.
It feels like the number of seniors to care about has multiplied.
Looking at it now, isn’t it?
I hadn’t even thought to substantiate the Akkshan legend.
however.
Bubbly.
Anyway, if it’s a demon, it’s Akkshan’s temper that rushes at it regardless of fire or water…! See the demon-smelling bloodstains, materialize, and see them spring to their feet.
He crinkles his brow and says,
“The smell of garbage.”
Unlike my seniors in Hell, I wasn’t bound by the rules.
The materialized seniors can open their mouths as much as they like.
Of course, who is the Akkshan of the world?
Back in the days of Continental Electric when Arcana was just a game.
Owners of cold sensibility who did not give a single compliment to the player in empty words even during the NPC days when they were supposed to be kind. Because of that, even when they saw me, the last demon hunter, Akkshan seniors didn’t show any sign of joy or emotion.
The words they uttered in their first encounter.
-“As it is, the last demon hunter.”
…as it is.
I thought it was because I didn’t listen to iron.
There was nothing to be hot about.
It’s the same as it was during the dark history of the second grade in middle school.
It’s a matter of course, but Granfell has a personality that is shown through actions rather than words, just as much as Akkshan. So there was no need for much conversation between us.
– “I wasn’t concerned.”
-“same here.”
-“Please take care of Akkshan.”
– “Nothing to worry about.”
– “Heh, that’s good.”
…What are you guys doing?
‘I was all hot-tempered, seriously.’
Are my tastes really like that?
It was a sight that made me doubt the past.
Anyway, that was over now.
And from now on, as the last survivor of Akkshan who has been resurrected as a legend.
Because I was too busy to be faithful to my work.
The eyes sparkle.
[Class Quest: Reconstruction of Akkshan]
The disappeared Akkshans were resurrected as legends of the new era.
However, what the Arcana Continent needs is a living legend, not a floating story. The last demon hunter. Rebuild the Akkshan of the new era with the legends of the past.
Yes.
In the end, I ended up shouldering the burden again.
In fact, it’s a bit lamentable now, isn’t it?
‘What am I supposed to do to look like this in the first place?’
This time, I had a positive mind from the beginning.
Then the point of view changed.
Why Akkshan Reconstruction?
It means that he saw the hidden value in a troublesome quest.
‘The devil will be resurrected someday.’
rank 10.
Deletion of all demon lords except for the top demon lords.
Even after returning to reality, I did not neglect the quest for oddities (surfing the Internet). In various communities, it seems that there are those who evaluate the patch as good news.
what you might think
But even if the world is fooled, I am not fooled.
Did you see that?
The process of the battle for the demon lord.
In the first place, being a demon king is not something you are born with. Those who occupy the empty throne in the skirmish only become new demon kings and gain greater power. So, systematically speaking.
‘Promoted to a boss monster.’
It is through the item [Devil King’s Throne] that he achieves a rise in rank. So, in the first place, the demon lord deletion patch was just a pun and Rayman Sean’s deception.
therefore.
To throw the demon lords into hell.
In the end, there was no other way but to hunt with the hands of a demon hunter.
In fact, the number of demons doesn’t matter.
‘If I had to, I’d do it, with this personality.’
The pride that grows higher in front of the devil.
If it was Grandfel, there was no way he would refuse to do dirty work, but the time it took to do it was a problem. It’s true that I can’t even think of the burden I’ve taken on myself.
From that point of view, Akkshan’s resurrection was welcome. I will suffer in the reconstruction process, but let’s look to the future. You know the saying that when you’re young, you buy hardships and do them?
In fact, the reconstruction process was not particularly unfamiliar.
Gaze toward the quest goal.
– Hunt the devil. (Repeat)
Yes, this repetitive quest made the players sick of it…!
Seeing you for the first time in a long time makes your teeth tremble.
It took a while for me to stick my tongue out.
Our senior Akkshan says.
“It’s time to chase.”
After that, He will deliver it directly through Akkshan communication.
– Hunt the devil. (Repeat)
Follow the bloodstains to the half-blood demon. (In progress)
A mixed-blood demon.
Judging by the name attached, it is at least a demon with true name.
It’s a named monster.
First of all, it’s a strange demon.
However, Akkshan of the world would not add a kind explanation, and the pride of Grandfel would not show ignorance. Actions speak louder than words.
‘I’ll have to track it down when I’m nearing the end of the 100 rift raid.’
By the way, chasing blood…
I moved my gaze to the blood.
And I’m in doubt
‘What are you after?’
As I said, it was all dried up blood.
It didn’t lead anywhere.
If you call Tempest, the guardian spirit of Akshan.
Can you track it down easily?
‘Am I going to call it out?’
Do you mean to say that name…?
Is it correct to call Tempest Over the Horizon?
Just as I was in agony, the Akk’shan Demon Hunter spoke up.
“I don’t follow with my eyes.”
It was a self-talk, not directed at me.
But that self-talk also helped me.
Who is Grandfel?
The owner of an exceptional talent that imitates just by looking at it.
If the explanation is added, you can follow anything without difficulty.
“Looking at consciousness beyond the five senses.”
consciousness
If it’s a ritual related to demons.
Also only one
The demon hunter utters the word I predicted.
“As if looking at the devil in an exorcism.”
[Exorcism], one of the few unique skills of demon hunters.
I thought it was a skill only used when hunting possessed demons.
There must have been a way to use this.
They are also seniors.
After a moment of admiration, I activated the [Exorcism Ritual].
[The skill ‘Exorcism’ is activated.]
“…!”
Then it was clearly visible.
in consciousness.
What kind of incident took place around the bloodstains spilled on the floor? It’s an incident that happened in a crack. It’s only natural that players who can access the rift are involved.
I recited coldly.
“It’s ugly.”
PK.
In the past, it was called PK (Player Kill), but now atrocities no different from murder took place here. It was clear what was to be remembered from the horrors.
A scream that penetrates consciousness.
-“You weren’t just a supernova…!!”
The murderer is a demon wearing a supernova mask.
– “Consider it an honor. You will become a historical victim.”
And to the extent that such a guy calls it a historical sacrifice.
That you have big plans.
That plan must be related to a half-blood demon.
release the exorcism.
As the afterimages dissipate, the figure of a demon hunter appears. Then it is. I was hoping you could explain it for me. It seems that he also invoked the exorcism like I did, and continued talking.
“It’s been a while, so I needed to remind you.”
Then he looks at me and says.
“The last demon hunter. I might be indebted to you unwillingly. Not just me, but everyone in Akshan.”
I nodded.
‘I was guessing.’
Legends grow stronger in how widely they resonate.
In that sense.
At this point, the legend of Akshan couldn’t be stronger than the main body.
‘How was Akkshan treated in the first place?’
It was Akkshan who became a legend through those who were forgotten in the Arcana continent. I know better than anyone. Akshan seniors are much stronger than people know.
Their tenacity will exceed anyone’s imagination.
So I answered.
“Didn’t you tell me, there’s nothing to worry about.”
To be honest, I, Lee Ho-yeol, have no confidence.
It is Akkshan’s tenacity and spirit of sacrifice, and he doesn’t even dare to pursue it. To rebuild Akkshan with the legendary Akkshan seniors? Likewise, we cannot guarantee that it will produce better results than the Akkshan of the past.
however.
“Akkshan will be reclaimed.”
“Get it back…?”
Isn’t there a Granfell here?
The youngest head of the Cloudy family.
A talent that is considered to be the best ever in a great family.
That talent includes the ability to rebuild the ruined Cloudy family. Wasn’t it me who experienced it at the banquet in the mansion in Cloudy’s estate?
therefore.
“The honor you deserve.”
“It’s an honor…”
You can say so arrogantly.
‘Akshan-style communication is good at times like this.’
As a senior, I would point out arrogant words.
The demon hunter just nodded silently.
Then, without saying a single word, they scattered into legends.
“Then I’ll be waiting for the next trail.”
It can’t be a reassuring yet tired word.
But there is no bird to grumble.
Now that Grandfell, a demon hater who doesn’t even tolerate breathing in the same space as the devil, has discovered the devil’s scheme. Can you afford something like that?
Sureung─
A landscape where reality and Arcana continent are mixed in half.
In the background of a collapsed reality.
I expressed the rebar in the concrete as a sword.
“This is why I despise you.”
He radiated sword steel and accelerated the rift attack.
“Isn’t discipline not worthwhile because you don’t always realize it?”
Now, even the trivial chatter with monsters has been omitted.
Because my attack speed will inevitably be even more fire.
Suddenly entering the next crack, I thought.
‘Are there two left with this one?’
see.
Clear 98 cracks…
Wouldn’t the world have gone crazy by now?
*
Magic Tower.
Emerald Hall.
A place where magic books that exist in the Mage Tower exist as copies.
The players huddled together in that vast space secretly whispered.
With wide eyes open.
“…Clearing 100 cracks in 1 hour?!”
“Then it took less than one minute per minute, right?”
“You’re crazy Lee Ho-yeol… No really, Chief Lee!”
To be exact, 59 minutes and 40 seconds.
It was the time it took for Hoyeol to clear one hundred cracks. It was overwhelming. Immediately after Hoyeol’s declaration of attacking the 100 Rifts, the scene was relayed through NetTuber players who quickly entered the rift.
“Is it just on a different level?”
“No matter what, it’s a boss mob, but it’s falling out.”
“…but what did you just say? Didn’t you say something to the monster in a very serious voice? If you’re going to take a picture of Ha, take it from a little closer!”
Crack attack for Ho-yeol?
It wasn’t a metaphor, it was easier than walking down the street. Even if you walk through a hundred cracks in a row, it would take an hour.
Players make their conclusions.
“You have clearly demonstrated your ability with this, right? Raymon Shen, that son of a bitch won’t be able to stop responding. Now it’s his turn to prove it…!”
Yes.
Now that Ho-yeol has proven his ability.
Now it’s Raymon Shen’s turn again.
Clap –
I hear the sound of dry saliva going over.
Now was the time to wait.
“Less than a week until the next regular update, right?”
“But does it really have to be regular?”
“As with the last patch, there is an analysis that the patch Rayman Shen intended was carried out as a regular update. Anyway, what is certain is that the next regular update will definitely come to a conclusion.”
Hoyeol and Raymon Shen.
The outcome of a match on a different scale will come out in one way or another.
If it was like usual, I would have waited anxiously for next Thursday.
However, at least in the Mage Tower, there was no need for that.
“Hey, it’s time.”
Before long, the players stood up all at once in the Emerald Hall.
Wizards, including them.
The place where the steps were headed was the same as the crystal hall.
Humongous hum—
“A descendant of the twilight. Aren’t you proud of your name?”
Descendants of the twilight, called pure-blooded magicians.
Because the time for the sorcerer, who claimed to be a descendant of the twilight, to stand on the podium to test his abilities in the Crystal Hall is imminent.
It was the moment the players entered the Crystal Hall.
“…?”
Their eyes focused on them all at once.
No, not just the players.
Even the eyes of the Mage Tower wizards.
“…!!”
