The Player Hides His Past - Chapter 37
Episode 37. The ancient kingdom of Yusra and
the Yusra Islands.
not all over the world.
A message floated in front of the players’ eyes.
[Someone has uncovered the secret of the Yusra Islands.]
[The ancient kingdom of Yusra appears.]
“!!!”
Same message displayed to all players.
In other words, a world-class message.
It meant that a major event had occurred that would mark a milestone in the history of Arcana.
“Did you see it? I said it wasn’t a regular update, I!”
“It wasn’t a treasure island, it was an ancient kingdom…
”
The first message printed to the players was.
It was also passed on to the general public by players.
It was thanks to Park Hwi-gang and other NetTuber players who delivered the breaking news right away.
“…The ancient kingdom of Yusra has revealed itself!”
“crazy. Brothers. This is where each content comes from?!”
“Who is someone? No, how does a hako like me know that again!!”
Equally excited viewers.
-Is Treasure Island an ancient kingdom?
-Then it means that it was a very rich country.
-Is it like ancient oil soup
?
Since it was an ancient kingdom, it would take time and effort to restore it, but it was clear that Yusra Kingdom would have tremendous value if it restored its past glory.
That will be too.
“Expert. If the breaking news that just came in is true, isn’t this the first national update? You mean that for the first time in history, the nation of Arcana has been summoned in reality?”
“Yes, it is! It should be seen as a huge event!”
“Can you estimate its value?”
“For now, if you simply look at the role the Empire played in Arcana. Even if it is restored to some extent, Yusra Kingdom is the first to be of great value…”
The first Arcana nation summoned to reality.
Because that was Yusra Kingdom.
emergence of a new nation.
It was also an ancient kingdom.
The past when Arcana was just a game.
Even in those days, a world-class event was evident.
Even in reality, Yusra Kingdom was revealed as the first national update.
So this moment.
The tension flowing through the Hot Potato Yusra Kingdom was difficult to describe in words.
The World’s Greatest Guild Shining.
Guild Master Rocks was stopped during the battle.
“…what happened?”
…Let’s rewind for a moment.
A whopping 500 level skeleton.
Upon entering the Golden Palace, they flocked in groups.
Now that Jesse is gone.
Shining couldn’t be seen as a power, though.
Even considering that, the skeleton army was too strong.
Why were you able to survive?
‘The pattern is simple compared to the stats.’
high level.
tenacious vitality.
However, the attack method was simple.
Even wielding a weapon looks sloppy.
‘It’s worth attacking enough.’
That was why the Rocks didn’t back down.
Of course, it would take a long time, but it was well worth the effort.
Not just evil, but evil.
Moreover, when considering the characteristics of Treasure Island.
It was only natural that the value of the loot to be dropped would be considerable.
however.
Passasac—
Suddenly, the skeletons collapsed.
It was back to the bones.
The meaning of the sight was simple.
The owner of the Golden Palace has fallen.
A message that comes to mind at the same time.
The Shining Guild members began to hum.
“… You said you defeated the giant by going through this skeleton field?”
“Is that possible?”
“Which children are they? unification? No, those fuckers can’t do that…?”
what do we say
If you heard the unification of the world, it would be unfair twice.
“It is clear. Again, those Shining bastards…!”
Shining and Unification.
just as bad as that.
We were able to notice each other because we knew each other well.
Did they break through this skeleton encirclement?
no it’s impossible
Rocks and Ryuo Junchun.
The two guild masters said at the same time.
“It is not the unification of the world.”
“It is not Shining!”
Question marks appeared on the faces of the guild members.
It wasn’t their question.
The message floated before the eyes of all the players.
As a player, it was natural to have doubts.
So who is the ‘someone’ in the message?

[Hidden Quest: Yusra Kingdom]
The legendary treasure island has reappeared.
The king wants to right the wrong and restore the pride.
—The crown is given to the king of Yusura Kingdom. (Success)
[The conditions have been met.]
[The secret of the Yusra Islands has been revealed.]
[The ancient kingdom of Yusra appears.]
And the hidden quest…!
Did this quest really exist?
At first, I couldn’t help but be skeptical.
‘No matter how much I search, I’ve never seen it.’
The story of when class quests first came to mind.
At that time, I was the one who looked for all of Arcana’s quests.
There were all sorts of quests, but I hadn’t even heard of a hidden quest.
But I had a clue.
During the 12 years of leaving Arcana.
I mean, I grew up to be aware while going through all the pre-natal battles.
‘…something is unusual.’
Above all, the conditions of the quest took.
A crown, nothing else.
It was to hand over an epic grade item to the king.
‘My ability wasn’t good. Was it all for a reason?’
Because the expectation disappeared a long time ago.
There was no need to mention the integrity of Grandfel.
I am a man without any regrets.
No, he crowned the king of Yusra Kingdom.
And now it was.
A message that never stops coming to mind.
[Relationship with Yusra Kingdom reached maximum.]
[Influence in Yusra Kingdom reached maximum.]
[The ‘Permission’ function has been activated in Yusra Kingdom.]
…Relationship with Kingdom As far as the influence authority function?
Of course, these were unfamiliar words to me.
‘It has no choice but to be like that.’
Even when Arcana was a game, and now.
Because it was not related to a specific country or in a position to exert influence. However, judging by the notice… It seems that the location has changed now?
‘Above all, the maximum value is important.’
In addition, activate the ‘Permissions’ function.
I just wanted to check it out right away.
Other than that, there are so many messages that come to mind.
Let’s push back for a moment.
Once the loot did not drop.
‘Is it the second one?’
Is it just that I have no luck?
‘If not…’
A demon possessed by someone does not drop an item.
It’s still too early to draw conclusions.
Still, there was no regret.
[Your level has risen.]….
To the point where checking the status window is faster than counting the number of lines.
[Name: Grandfell Cloudy Arpheus Romeo]
[Class: Demon Hunter]
[Level: 226]
[Ability]
Strength: 27 / Agility: 33 / Magical Power: 126 / Luck: 3
[Possession Points: 50]
Greed kill.
Thanks to that, the level I raised was a whopping level 50…!
Isn’t this the maximum in the system beyond the personal record?
It was such a great experience.
But it was never overcompensation.
‘Because I caught a level 650 monster by myself.’
I had a sudden thought.
Have I become that strong?
It was definitely different from when he was dealing with Count Ascura.
At that time, all I could do was borrow the power of Jesse Heinness and defeat him.
Of course, a lot has happened in a short period of time.
‘Participating in the Magic Tower Society and realizing about magic…’
He also improved the expression of the magic.
I couldn’t leave out the tempal called brooch.
‘Cooperation of the Gaon Berserker of the Lion Heart Knights.’
That wasn’t enough, so I was in a state of magical exhaustion.
Because of the exorcism, I used up all my saved magical power to defeat the guy who couldn’t even counterattack properly.
But I could intuit.
‘…Seven deadly greed.’
It’s a demon hunter’s flair.
apart from my growth.
For a guy who pretends to be evil.
I definitely felt the energy of an inexperienced demon.
‘He didn’t seem to know anything about the exorcism.’
Above all, they are ignorant of exorcism.
That said, he had no knowledge of demon hunters either.
‘I don’t know the demon hunter, who is a colossus but also a nemesis?’
…Well, as of now, I can’t figure out why.
But one thing is clear.
Demons hunted by demon hunters are thrown into hell and never come back. That was no exception even for the giants.
A word from an Akkshan demon hunter that suddenly comes to mind.
-That’s why the devil fears us.
I raised my gaze and looked at the remnants of the Seven Deadly Sins of greed.
Suss—
just like Count Ascura did.
Thick smoke was rising from his trail.
It was then that I felt a presence walking towards me.
It was Harkon.
“What should I say about this, Lord Hoyeol?”
I replied while tidying up the disheveled clothes.
“I just did what I had to do.”
It was grandiose, but it was just a quest.
However, if you don’t tell me what’s inside you, it’s a good thing to misunderstand.
Harkon’s eyes were tearing up in a way he hadn’t seen before.
“I have no choice but to regret it once again.”
…Please don’t cry, Harkon.
If I even cry, the remorse of my conscience gets worse.
It was the man who evoked such an atmosphere.
No, it would be more correct to call him the king of Yusra Kingdom.
“… benefactor. May I ask your name?”
He asked me, still on his knees.
Even so, I wondered if I could do this even though I am a king.
Even the situation where the king bows his head.
Because there was me who took it for granted.
I opened my mouth without hesitation.
“I am Lee Ho-yeol.”
.
.
.
Maximum relationship and influence.
I was realizing the power of that message.
Hakuna, the king of Yusura Kingdom.
They say he is the king of an ancient kingdom that was destroyed long ago.
Its status can never be ignored.
Above all, look at the Golden Palace, which is still in good health.
It looks luxurious enough to make me wonder if I could buy all the buildings in Seoul even if I sold this palace alone.
The owner of such a golden palace and the king of Yusra Kingdom.
Hakuna asked me.
“What do you think, benefactor?”
And in a very polite manner.
I’ve never done anything like etiquette education.
It must all be because of the hidden quest rewards.
Of course, I was blunt.
“It would be right to rebuild Yusra Kingdom. what does the country need? Wouldn’t Hakuna know that better than I do?”
Even if he is a king, he is not my lord.
There is no need to bow your head.
Yes, it was Grandfel’s attitude that even I could understand.
‘No matter how it is.’
Above all, look at the surprised players’ expressions.
“…Taemin hyung. What am I looking at?”
“sister. I wouldn’t be surprised if he tackled the head mage. In the world, talk to the king?!”
“Wow. That’s all the same.”
I strongly agree with that last sentence.
Soon Hakuna answered.
“You are right, my benefactor. Even so, you said to be proud…. I am concerned. Who can believe and follow the king who betrayed the people…”
I said without hesitation.
“Believe and follow is up to you to do. King of Yusra. I already think there is no need to worry. Are you still worried?”
“…embarrassingly so.”
“is it.”
It really can’t be a futile worry.
The value of Yusra Kingdom.
It was to the point that even I, who didn’t know much about arcana, felt it was enormous.
Above all, isn’t Yusra Kingdom a treasure island?
Monsters that appear around it, as well as resources that are born and grow on the ground.
By comparison, Yusra Kingdom was nothing but an undervalued stock with nothing left to do.
It was said that there were players in guild units who would line up to build a friendly relationship with Hakuna, even if they were forced to eat without pay…!
therefore.
“Then I will offer it as my ‘permission’.”
Now is the time to take advantage of the activated ‘permissions’ feature.
Why is there a give and take in everything?
I spoke.
“I recommend the Lion Heart Knights, Gaon, and the Berserker Guild gathered here as those who will contribute to the reconstruction of Yusra Kingdom.”
“…!!!”
“King Hakuna. What do you think?”
Of course, there was no reason for Hakuna to refuse my offer.
Everyone was shocked—
I looked at them and thought calmly.
At least in this kingdom of Yusra.
My authority takes precedence over your right to refuse.
If you twist it, try activating the authority function like me….
*
Now that the evil is gone.
There is no natural enemy relationship or narrative between Grandfel and the devil.
It was said that I was feeling the recoil as much as I was overdoing it.
Damn, it’s several times harder…!
My whole body shakes in the aftermath of magical exhaustion.
Above all, the eyelids are closed.
Again—
but even though he lightly ignored the request for an interview.
There was no way this gait was disturbed.
Pride is so tired.
I headed for the portal.
“Hoyeol, I really don’t know how to repay this kindness! I will do my best in Gaon too. I will not disappoint you.”
until the end.
The reason Nam Tae-min was so grateful was simple.
To work for the rebuilding of the kingdom.
As I said, the relationship with Yusra Kingdom was also a golden opportunity to build influence. Look at Hakuna. You said you would stand in line even if it was unpaid service, did I?
“Thank you. I will definitely pay the debt later.”
I was hesitant, but
Leonie’s position would not be much different.
Of course, in the case of the Knights of the Lion Heart, it was my own opinion.
“Lord Harkon. Did I do something wrong?”
“Not at all, Sir Hoyeol. We are more familiar with the environment here than staying in an unfamiliar city. Rather, I am grateful for your consideration.”
More than anything, Harkon and the Lionheart Knights liked it because they could train their dull senses here.
Considering the level of the monsters appearing, it would be enough training for them.
‘Let’s go back.’
The possibility of Yusra Kingdom pops into my head.
Among them, what I can use….
I was worried and stopped thinking.
‘It’s impossible to worry about it anymore.’
want to lie down
I really want to get off work.
I mean, I want to sleep.
Arrive at the Magic Tower through the portal.
After I went to the lab.
I was thinking of going home after entrusting my feelings through the parchment.
There are three items to ask for an appraisal using research as an excuse.
[Vampire Count’s Orb], a level 400 restricted item purified through exorcism.
A [Pure Emerald Crystal] obtained by defeating the Emerald Tiger.
Lastly, [island treasure Nishikigoi scale silk].
However, my knife tip stopped in front of the lab door.
“oh!”
A large conical hat stood covering the door.
Again—
did he notice my footsteps?
It took a while for the cone-shaped hat to flinch.
under the hat.
The pupil with the exclamation mark flashed.
“Come! I’ve been waiting! Hoyeol!”
Bowing—
head bowing politely.
A hand placed flat on the belly.
be unnecessarily polite
“Sorry, I have some questions about magic!”
…to the point where I couldn’t resist.
“I believe it is a question that has been carefully considered for the amount of time I have waited.”
I opened the door.
“Go in. Jesse Heinness.”
