The Player Hides His Past - Chapter 41

Episode 41. Long time no see sword (1)

I even sent a note saying welcome.

…How is it so quiet?

I looked at the scrawl on the parchment.

‘Even though I properly apologized.’

Are you saying we need some time until the next proof?

well it was fine

Even if it wasn’t for this, there were plenty of things to do.

It sounds like you have a tight schedule.

I closed the magic book I was reading.

‘Let’s go soon.’

To Yusra Kingdom.

Both in the media and on the Internet.

His interest in Yusra Kingdom never faded.

It must be the Korean media that is more excited than anyone else.

Gaon and Berserker.

A quest to rebuild the kingdom of Yusra that only two guilds have to complete.

──────

[Exclusive] Expert Japan “It is certain that Gaon and Inazuma will change their rankings…. Entering third place is not a dream.” [At this time, the National Assembly] “Dreams of a future led by Gaon and backed by Shinhwa…”

Self-congratulation continues that this achievement is the result of national policy….

there is no I will just do my best.”

──────

If you are looking at such articles.

I don’t think just anyone is a player, really.

Can you imagine how tired you are?

Even if I say a word, the instruction pours out.

to continued speculation.

until the interview request.

‘In that sense, I have no choice but to be grateful.’

I mean, with this nasty personality.

– Get out of the way. This is the limit of patience.

– I couldn’t find any ceremony.

-So I won’t take any questions.

The words I said without filtering them in front of the camera.

…It was a line that made me cringe even if I remembered it again.

Is it because of that though?

Because I didn’t have reporters approaching me hastily.

No, not just reporters.

Even the players were no different.

The lobby of the Magic Tower.

Many players gathered around the portal.

“No, it’s just that we’re going to turn around the rift at that time…?”

“omg. This is Ho-yeol Lee. Lee Ho-yeol!”

“Shh! Shut your mouth first.”

Flowing stillness—

the place that used to be noisy becomes quiet for an instant.

If it was me in the past, I would have been restless.

Do these shun me?

I mean, imagining something.

However, humans are definitely animals of adaptation.

Because I was slowly getting used to this reaction.

I am both head and heart.

He was content with this silence.

Then, suddenly, a similar picture came to mind.

‘…but.’

This temperament is even in front of rankers who only collect the best players.

Even in front of the senior mages of the Mage Tower, he was consistent.

So there is no need to leave any impressions.

that it is everyday.

Again—

I thought as I entered the portal.

How can you become more and more shameless, Hoyeol-ah?

.

.

.

The reason he found Yusra Kingdom was simple.

‘I have to meet Harkon.’

You should ask him about the ‘sword skill’.

But before that, I’ll have to check it out.

It’s stupid to leave integrity and not use what you get.

‘Nothing like cancer.’

A reward obtained by completing a hidden quest.

My relationship with Yusra Kingdom was also the one whose influence had risen to the maximum.

As a result, the [Permission] function in Yusra Kingdom was activated.

‘Let’s get to know it properly.’

I was thinking of figuring out exactly what the permission function was.

In fact, I could have guessed to some extent.

Why do I have to talk about it a little on the Internet?

– Aren’t Gaon and Berserker blessed?

– If you build relationships and influence through quests, you can receive titles later when the kingdom is finished rebuilding, right? DD

– Shining and Skal will explode hahaha In Yusra Kingdom, you might have to use honorifics for Leonie and Nam Taemin hahahahaha

Relationships and influence.

up to the possibility of obtaining a title accordingly.

That’s common sense from when Arcana was a game.

That’s why players are obsessed with relationships and influence.

‘Of course, the importance varies depending on the scale.’

influence in small towns.

influence in a country.

It would be impossible to compare the two on the same line.

‘Why can’t the village chief give me a title?’

In that sense, talking about the relationship and the value of influence in Yusra Kingdom was sore.

Above all, the Yusra Islands were the first country of Arcana to appear in reality.

-First of all, the potential is crazy!!

-It’s nothing else, it’s a treasure island in the legend hahaha

-Even if you get a title or even just one mine ownership hahahaha

The most important thing is the possibility of its development!

From the beginning, it was Yusra Kingdom that was rich in resources.

As it became the first country to appear, it had an opportunity to make full use of its resources and develop.

Players’ expectations were also growing.

-First of all, monsters around you are regenerated

. -Raising the level while going back and forth between the kingdom and the hunting

grounds.

-Lㅇ What do you guys think about entering Gaon or Berserker at the lower end???

-ㅁㅎ Who accepted it? Hahahahaha

So.

humanly.

My anticipation has no choice but to grow…!

‘It’s nothing else, it’s the maximum.’

…Wouldn’t even be soybean water drop significantly?

But again, what drives me.

It was the pride in my heart.

“I must judge wisely.”

enormous influence.

The responsibility that accompanies that influence.

Truly noblesse oblige.

I sighed inwardly.

‘…what’s left of this!’

After all, it is the law to take care of one’s share.

If you don’t tell me, no one will take care of you.

That’s what I do as an employee.

Society is the truth that I realized while rolling in the jungle.

‘…what?’

But my lamentation did not last long.

Maximum relationship and influence.

That it’s not usually a reward.

because I soon realized.

‘…Maybe I don’t have to step out and take care of it?’

Golden Palace in the distance.

with the palace in the background.

A man walks towards me with quick steps.

The man was Hakuna, the king of Yusura.

“Are you here? Benefactor!”

I thought as I looked at Hakuna, who smiled brightly.

‘To see the king greet you with tabi and take it for granted. Maybe this isn’t getting more and more shameless…?’

I wondered if my shamelessness had already reached its maximum.

*

“One two!”

A loud roaring sound is heard in my ears.

Knights of the Lionheart.

Knight Commander Harkon Kingsguard smiled.

How long has it been since you felt this peace?

“Your voice is small. again!”

For some reason, my mind was calm.

After being summoned to the world of adventurers.

I haven’t had a single day where I haven’t had a good night’s sleep.

Last night I was able to fall asleep without tossing once.

Harkon looked at the surrounding landscape.

Even the buildings that adventurers call buildings.

There were no noisy iron carriages to be seen.

Is it because of the Yusra Kingdom’s environment, which is similar to his hometown?

‘no.’

Harkon shook his head.

We already know that it is not.

Because it was the impatience that bothered me.

「Is His Majesty the Emperor all right?

what am i doing here?

Can I close my eyes comfortably?」

However, that hasty worry has now disappeared.

‘It’s all thanks to Lord Hoyeol.’

Yes, it was all thanks to Hoyeol.

Because Harkon learned a lot while working with Hoyeol.

‘The embarrassing thing must have been the same for Hoyeol.’

Their homeland and the world of adventurers.

A cataclysm where the two worlds mix.

Adventurers are also confused.

Hoyeol would have been the same.

And even the appearance of demons.

They had plenty of room to be discouraged like they were.

Harkon swallowed his admiration again.

‘How could Kyung be so calm?’

Ho-yeol didn’t feel even the slightest agitation.

Even the seven deadly sins.

Even in the battle with the giant evil that made even himself tremble in fear.

There was no noble resolution or sacrifice in such passionate action.

It’s like it’s just something you have to do.

There was only Ho-yeol, who calmly went to the giant.

It had a big impact on awakening Harkon’s spirit.

‘Even that decision must be natural for Lord Hoyeol.’

What a man with a bowl this big?

I definitely have to emulate that kind of Ho-yeol.

Harkon knew.

‘Of course, it’s not something that can be followed by hard work.’

But one thing is clear.

“…that I have to do what I have to do.”

My heartbeat–

In a way, that word was natural.

It made the dead heart of the lion beat again.

So, the Lion Heart Knights started training again.

Chang-!

The swords of clashing knights.

Harkon passionately raised the knights.

“Raise me! Get your posture right!”

This is what we can do now.

“How can you defeat the demons of your hometown when you can’t even defeat the demons of this world!”

This is what we must do now.

Chaengchaechaeng—!

Harkon thought of this after looking at the evil knights.

‘There is no longer any lingering feelings.’

Contact with the magic tower through heat.

Harkon also abandoned his plan.

It was also a mistake made in the haste to return home as quickly as possible.

You can’t repeat mistakes in the yard where you’ve gained enlightenment.

“You were taken care of again by the sir.”

I joined the reconstruction of Yusra Kingdom.

It was like an extension of training.

Because the role of the knights was to deal with monsters and enemies that could be a threat to the kingdom.

Harkon gently closed his eyes.

The sound of cheering in your ears.

calm mind.

Perhaps there will be nothing to worry about for a while…

But Harkon’s expectations were wrong.

“What did Bar just say? Lord Hoyeol?”

This time, it was none other than the heat.

Harkon asked, embarrassed.

“You mean you really want to get into swords…?!”

.

.

.

“Whoa—”

With a sigh, Yesica took off her helmet.

His sweat-soaked, black-brown hair swayed.

Her narrowed eyes are Harkon…

No, to be precise, the silver hair next to Harkon.

He headed for Hoyeol.

‘Wizard.’

It is also a mage related to the mage tower.

Yesica knew well what kind of characters the magicians of the Mage Tower were.

because I’ve seen it before.

The single purpose of searching for the truth.

Their steps moving towards that goal.

‘…Crazy guys.’

It was ‘extinction’.

Why did you become a stumbling block?

With just one, everything in the area evaporated in half a day.

Yesica had been dispatched there to clear things up.

But there was nothing left to fix.

Was there anyone who was caught up in it?

I can’t even confirm that fact.

Because nothing was left there.

Not even a blade of grass was visible.

But Ho-yeol was something different.

Are you really a wizard related to the Mage Tower?

to the point of doubt.

Above all, the image of Ho-yeol at the time when he split the lava and the stone steps that supported him was clear.

However, Yesica shook her head.

Dori Dori——

It was prejudice that was as vivid as that memory.

‘…I don’t know yet.’

Is it really different from other mage tower wizards?

But the conversation that comes soon.

Even Yesica’s doubtful eyes were enough to make her wide-eyed.

“Lord Harkon. Is swordplay real?”

…Swordsmanship?

Wait a minute, how does a wizard know about swordsmanship!

It was natural for the captain to be surprised as well as himself.

Yes, sword skill is…

“Lord Hoyeol, what does that mean?”

“The sword. I am talking about the light that shimmered in your sword.”

“…I can’t believe it, Lord Hoyeol. Did you see that light?!”

It’s not something anyone can see…!

Natural talent and constant training.

It was because those two things had to be accompanied to barely witness the sword skill.

So I couldn’t help but be surprised.

But the surprise did not stop there.

“is it. Then I guess I can handle swordsmanship too.”

I will deal with the sword.

Because Ho-yeol declared it like that.

Enoch, who had been listening silently, murmured.

“…What is he saying now? That wizard Nari.”

She didn’t respond, but Yesika felt the same way.

‘It’s actually surprising that you just noticed. however?’

Dealing with swordsmanship is another matter!

Even in the Knights of the Lion Heart, the only ones who could wield sword skills were themselves and Enoch, including the leader. Above all, wasn’t Ho-yeol a wizard?

Yesica was frankly dumbfounded.

“Can you hold the sword properly before that?”

Harkon handing the sword to Ho-yeol.

‘I don’t know what the captain is thinking…’

Yesica thought it was a waste of time.

That’s because the wizard’s body is weak.

They are wizards who open books in front of their desks all day long.

How could he wield a sword with such slender forearms…

“…?!”

But Yesica’s prejudice.

Seruk—

“…What is it? Is that wizard Nari?”

The moment I took off the jacket I was wearing.

broken cleanly

Muscles exposed under the white shirt.

That’s the magician’s body.

Because it looked so unbelievably solid.

‘…Is your skin white? No, that’s not it!’

It took a while for Yesika to swallow dry saliva without even realizing it.

Hoyeol accepted the sword Harkon gave him.

And the moment you raise that sword.

“!!!”

everyone is shocked
