The Player Hides His Past - Chapter 512
Episode 512. It was not a pleasant thing (1)
『Granfell was not proud of his family’s wealth and fame.』
At the time, I think it was written roughly to emphasize the nobility of Granfell, who did not show off the family halo… But now, When I think about it, it gets scary.
‘Then where on earth does this high self-esteem come from?’
Because I think it’s a self-esteem that comes purely from a source of pride.
‘You are scary. really.’
That’s amazing in a different way, Granfell.
But even if Granfell tries to ignore Cloudy’s halo.
There’s no way I, Ho-yeol Lee, would do that, right?
‘Every single thing about this side is disappointing.’
Cloudy’s Abyss.
It felt uncomfortable to say that it was the name of a treasure trove of the Cloudy family’s enormous wealth, but I was not intimidated.
fair price.
Sacrificing what is most precious to you.
Isn’t it me who entered with confidence?
‘At least you have the right to look at the green tea bags.’
however.
‘…what?’
there’s nothing?
The vast space is just empty!!
Oh no.
A thought suddenly passes through my mind.
As I said, the Cloudy spirit collapsed once in the past.
‘…Is it strange that it’s actually fine?’
Regardless of reality or the Arcana continent, there was no such thing as recognition for grave robbers. They would dig up graves for money, so why did they leave the treasures behind because they were afraid of the exterminated Cloudy?
‘I somehow found it easy.’
Just one green tea bag.
I was thinking of eating Cloudy’s treasures raw.
Does this mean that he has been punished by heaven?
‘The promise is cancelled, Granfell. As expected, this time with discounted green tea….’
That was the moment when I internally swallowed the bitter taste of cheap green tea.
Granfell’s voice flowed from between my lips.
That was an order from the head of the Cloudy family.
“Show me the reality.”
An action as natural as simply inhaling and exhaling.
As if it was a natural knowledge to have as the head of the family.
The line just now wasn’t awkward at all.
‘What’s hidden?’
It wasn’t stolen by vicious robbers…?
It was a time when I was muttering to myself and still doubting myself.
Granfell’s consistent voice continues.
“Even if they say it collapsed. Because Cloudy is Cloudy.”
Granfell style of speaking.
To express its implicit meaning…. Even if it was destroyed. Doesn’t this mean that in the face of Cloudy’s built-up power, no one dared to dig up Cloudy’s spirit?
‘for a moment.’
It’s not just a bunch of confident nonsense…
Spirit Cloudy was a hidden piece until I found him, right?
Even in Cloudy Territory, the orders of the head of the family, Granfell, were absolute.
‘Enough to present rules that no one can disobey.’
Oh my god, I forgot something, Hoyeol.
What kind of family is Cloudy?
At least that’s what Cloudy was like as I wrote down in my notebook.
‘It was so great that no one could surpass it.’
It was like that.
Black history.
At the same time, I once again acknowledge that dark history.
[Cloudy’s abyss reveals its true nature.]
Cloudy’s report blinked before my eyes.
Something pouring like a waterfall out of thin air.
There really was a gold coin in front of me that was comparable to a grain of sand on a sandy beach. However, I was not deceived by Lee Ho-yeol. Are you belatedly imitating the incorruptible Granfell?
…Is that possible?
If I were pure and innocent, we might just drink green tea and starve to death from malnutrition, right? Yes. The reason why I, Lee Ho-yeol, can be calm in front of gold and silver treasures is simple.
‘What is this?’
Achromatic.
The gold and silver treasures that were supposed to sparkle brilliantly had no color.
[The delusion of pure knowledge].
Because I had knowledge about all minerals.
I just realized that the coins were made of gold.
‘In other people’s eyes…’
It wouldn’t be strange to mistake it for just a coin made of stone.
It was an unsightly color.
For a moment, the back of my head throbbed.
As the expectations were high, the shock must have been great.
This is why you shouldn’t have expectations.
But our Grandfell.
“Didn’t I tell you?”
Even in this situation, he gently scratches my insides.
“Wealth and fame are just an illusion.”
…No, Granfell.
There’s no need to make the words you say come true in a place like this?! Of course, the gold and silver treasures did not lose their luster because of the cubic nature of Gran Fell.
Blinking vision.
Because I was witnessing color somewhere other than gold coins.
That was a quest message.
[Hidden Quest: Lifting the Abyss]
The Cloudy family has a secret.
A secret that no one has been able to uncover.
Until I realized the secret.
Until I realized its weight.
You will not be able to wield Cloudy’s halo.
-Witness the complete Cloudy family. (In progress)
Cloudy’s secret.
‘Even after seeing this, I know most things.’
Because those were the settings I wrote down.
But as I’ve said several times.
I wonder if my black history or Cloudy’s came first.
At the point when the Cloudy family beyond Granfell was realized.
Isn’t it me who has become even more uncertain?
furthermore.
[Comprehension of darkness: 70%]
I still only understood 70% of the inner thoughts of Granfell, whom I had been stuck with all day. So there might be at least one secret about Cloudy that I don’t know about.
but.
‘What is the goal of the quest?’
The problem was the quest goal.
Where on earth is the ‘complete Cloudy family’ in the world right now…!
Someone might ask me
I wonder if the Cloudy spirit was completely restored using reversal magic.
‘You’re welcome.’
Only a small portion of Cloudy’s spirit was able to be restored with reversal magic. Moreover, does the complete Cloudy family simply refer to the Cloudy spirit?
Cloudy.
Under that name, the dragons who trembled on the Arcana continent bowed their heads, and the elves were jealous and even the empire was afraid of the prestige of the Cloudy family.
‘of course.’
If I were to become Lee Ho-yeol with added bubbles.
Even though I thought I could compare to Cloudy.
I shake my head violently.
No matter how disappointing I am.
‘I have no intention of saying anything officially.’
This means that even if I die, I will never be able to reveal that I am ‘Granfell Cloudy Arpheus Romeo’…! On that matter, Granfell seemed to agree with me.
“Greatness is not something that reveals itself.”
…I am once again grateful for his picky taste.
Then someone will ask again.
So, are you planning on giving up Cloudy’s gold and silver treasures?
A glance.
‘That’s just nonsense.’
Among the colorless gold and silver treasures.
Items that looked enormous even at first glance caught my eye.
Normally, just looking at it would have reminded me of the information window.
I guess that means there is no point until you succeed in the quest.
‘Let’s think, Hoyeol. think.’
Yes.
Even just to get them.
I needed the desperation to bring in everything I didn’t have and use it.
This means that it is a moment to think about it.
‘There is not much time given.’
Just one week.
Time limits should also not be forgotten.
There was one clue that passed me by.
The thought reached the ‘social space of time and space’, a space of consciousness that is relatively free from the flow of time. To be more specific, the highest floor in the social space of time and space.
‘…A request from the highest level of space and time!’
What if it’s a mythic level quest that allows you to go back and forth between the present and the past?
I had already intervened in the past and changed reality once.
If only we could witness Cloudy in his original era from the past.
Couldn’t this quest also be eaten raw…?
‘They say you just have to witness it.’
You’re not dead yet, my little hair!
If it was a space-time quest, I could be free from the time constraints of a week. In that sense, I didn’t hesitate. We immediately entered the social space of time and space.
[Entering the ritual ‘social space of time and space.’]
The clothes are adjusted with a disapproving hand.
“It’s a series of things I don’t feel like doing.”
After hearing another shout out to our Grandfell.
Still, thank you, Granfell.
Why are you breaking your stubbornness for me?
‘Well, I guess that’s the reason….’
Of course it was because of the top-quality green tea that was promised.
*
A social space in space and time.
“It’s amazing to look at this place.”
Nam Taemin and Hisagi Leonie.
The three people who entered the realm of strangeness and passed the transcendental qualification examination met at a social gathering place in time and space as promised. Of course, bickering continued even in places of different status.
Tuk.
Leonie sighs as she sits down on the table.
“I can’t believe I have to face you all here too.”
“I am delighted, Miss Leonie.”
“Ugh.”
“Hey, are you crazy? “Why are you spitting out that expensive thing?!”
Hisagi’s feeling of greasiness to which I had never been able to get used to.
Leonie squirted the water of life she had taken from Nam Taemin out of her mouth.
Nam Taemin was indignant at that sight.
Isn’t that inevitable?
“How did I earn this gold coin? It’s real!”
“What are you talking about?”
“Because I can’t give others the berserker habit. I felt bad that he came back as green onion kimchi after a fight, so I bought it for him, and he just spit it out? You won’t be able to do it. From next time, never…”
“What is green onion kimchi?”
“Oh, only in times like this do you pretend not to understand?”
It looks like a large dog and a Chihuahua growling.
It wasn’t like I had rented a social venue in time and space.
Coincidentally, there were only three people in the social gathering right now.
Hisagi’s snake eyes coolly assessed the situation.
“It’s only natural because the Arcana Continent is shaking.”
The commander-in-chief’s influence is running rampant.
As a result, it is safe to say that the Arcana Continent was undergoing rapid changes.
They say it is a space of consciousness where time flows slowly.
“It means you don’t want to miss a single moment. “I know very well.”
Hisagi bit his lip.
“I feel the same way.”
“What are you talking about earlier?”
“Hey, you took a sip too. “Why are you pretending not to know?”
Hisagi cleared his throat and continued speaking.
“Taemin, Miss Leonie. You must not overlook the reason why we gathered together in this urgent situation. Have you all found it? Giant Great Sage Rise. “His last steps.”
“You’re changing the story….”
“It’s all for the commander-in-chief.”
“….”
When those names came out, Barbarian and Berserker.
The two temperament heads stopped growling.
Then they immediately laid out the information they had obtained.
“I found traces of the Great Monster rampaging in the southwest, but I couldn’t find anything that could be said to be traces of the Great Sage. The wizard said there were no magic marks or anything…”
“Me too.”
“So do i.”
“How come you haven’t heard anything from the spirits?”
A magician and apprentice wizard of the Magic Tower.
Of the three, Hisagi was the one who could communicate with spirits. In fact, it was Hisagi who had been talking to spirits since they began to be seen in their natural state.
however.
“Even so, I asked a question to Senior Payan Lot, a senior wizard of the Magic Tower Spiritual School. I was wondering if there was any additional news from the spirits about the great sage. But even the spirit kings said they had heard nothing about his whereabouts.”
In the end, there wasn’t much difference.
Nam Taemin sighed as the tension eased.
Then, I glanced at the social gathering place.
“I heard he disappeared without a trace. “I was wondering if you could come and see me…”
As a great sage and transcendental person, he would have been able to enter this social hall. So, I entered with the last hope. But as you can see, the social space in time and space is empty except for them.
Nam Taemin shrugged his shoulders.
“Then shall we disperse at this point and make another appointment?”
Even if time passes slowly.
I didn’t feel comfortable spending time in such a luxurious place. The same was true for Hisagi and Leonie. It was the moment when the three people were about to leave the social gathering.
“After Leonie, you really have to buy it.”
“what? “I’d rather eat a flea’s liver.”
“There is no flea as bold as you, either in reality or on the Arcana continent.”
The vision of those who were exchanging harsh words suddenly blinked.
“!!!”
[The atmosphere of the ritual ‘social space in time and space’ changes suddenly.]
It was an unfamiliar message.
And it was an unfamiliar production.
A melody begins to sound in my ears.
~♩♬♩♬♪~
Because I am not very well versed in music.
I couldn’t express it more specifically than that.
It was overly sweet and grand.
Thanks to you, I was able to intuit it.
“…who is it?”
The fact that the social hall of time and space is playing a melody for someone special who is about to enter. And the prediction was correct. A message appeared in front of the three people.
[VVIP enters the social space of time and space.]
“VVIP…?!”
.
.
.
Is anyone listening over there?
Because it seems like the great VVIP is going to die from the burden.
Please turn off that song…!!
