Childhood Friend of the Zenith - Chapter 361

thud.

Hard-!

The sound of scratching the wall once.

Her brushing hands leave marks on the seemingly solid wall.

I feel a little bit of a drag, but I cut it off with force.

thump-! thud!

While being careful not to break the flow of mixed bets.

Stretch your fist against the stretch wall.

When the fist hits the wall, the hole opens without being blocked.

Damn-!

Cracks begin to appear in the multiple holes. I didn’t care and continued punching.

The bets from the Danjeon take their place in the upper division. The whole body screamed as if the heat wanted to go out.

It was important to endure this.

Because that was the most important way to maximize the ability of the body.

“Huh.”

When you exhale thinly, heat mixes with your mouth and hot air comes out.

At first glance, it was clearly a bet.

rotate the upper body

At the same time, he drove the bet of the upper division into his fist and threw out the last one.

Quad Deuk-! bang!

At that moment, a loud sound spread in all directions, and the huge wall collapsed.

Patter-!

while debris falls to the floor. Recovering the heat and bets spread around you, you breathe.

“Whoa…”

After returning the energy that spread throughout the body along the bloodstream to the danteon.

I checked my condition while cooling my overheated body.

While I closed my eyes and looked around here and there, I had to frown.

‘It doesn’t seep through properly.’

It’s been several days since I reached the state of the hwagyeong, but the realization I gained there wasn’t properly permeated into my body.

He trained for a long time in the Demon Realm and felt the rise in the realm that followed.

After reaching the stage, he recovered to some extent and then returned to the present world.

The realization I gained at that time made me reach the Hwagyeong straight away in the present world.

‘The sense of disparity cannot be erased.’

It was quite different from the realm he felt in the Demonic Realm.

‘What’s different.’

At that time, I focused on imagery rather than physical training.

I knew I would lose everything when I returned to the present world. The reason why I couldn’t reach the flower mirror was because I thought imagery was the biggest problem.

As a result, my predictions were correct.

Thanks to that, I succeeded in reaching the Hwagyeong as soon as I arrived in the present world.

‘At this rate, it’s still only half a penny.’

If it was completely touching the hwagyeong, it wasn’t.

unstable

It was as if his body was out of balance, and he felt uncomfortable somewhere.

To find out the reason…

‘The first thing is that I have never reached the flower scene with only the deep air of the Gu family.’

It was the first time I had reached the realm with only the power of the Fire Flame Gong.

Maybe it’s because he’s not used to the direction of Jeongseok because it’s different from when he was raised with Magi’s help.

Even this was not certain. It’s just an estimate.

Let’s consider the second reason.

‘There is so much energy inside.’

Based on the firearms of Mouth Flames. From volcanic pottery to magic and blood.

If it was another soldier, it would not be enough even if they had two energies and they collided with each other and exploded.

I only dealt with four energies.

Even the temperaments are all different, and except for pottery, there are only guys who are unmatched for being violent.

As much as it reached the flower scene and the bowl widened.

Although the ability to control and use energy has been maximized far beyond its peak.

‘The other energies have become stronger as well.’

it was being felt

Every time I used a bet, the other energy that I had planted in the corner slowly poked out its head.

I must say that my assertiveness has become stronger.

Should I say that they are protesting to use it too?

Whatever it was, it wasn’t pleasant.

Pottery is not a dangerous energy in the first place.

As long as Shinnoya is in his body, he won’t run away from colliding with the bet.

It had already been mixed and used for a long time.

The remaining two energies are different.

It’s like a monster.

Magi, who can’t stand the existence of other energy besides herself.

I don’t know what he was thinking, but even the bloody spirit of trying to expand the realm of smalsmal.

First of all, I don’t want to take it out as much as possible because I know that both of them are not healthy.

But the more I bet, the more I stick out my head, so it wasn’t a concern.

‘I can’t clean it up though.’

Magi has already imprinted it on his heart, so he can’t take it out.

I’m not the kind of person who falls out just because I’m trying to lose blood.

It’s best to try not to use it if possible.

‘Magi succeeded in completely changing my energy, but blood…’

Compared to the energy she used so much in her previous life as Magi, she instinctively knew what to do.

Blood was an energy that was completely unknown.

Because it was a mixture of various energies, I couldn’t properly frame it, so I wonder if enlightenment was slow to seep in…

Of course, this was also expected.

‘…if there’s anything close to certainty.’

He escaped the problem of imagery and reached the Hwagyeong, but ended up being blocked by the same problem.

“… Tsk…”

After calming down the body, I slowly opened my eyes.

It was already evening.

Looking at the rising moon, I remembered what had happened during the day.

‘Weird.’

I remembered Wi Seol-ah’s face and wiped my chest.

Although I put the energy that was scattered when she disappeared into my body.

Nothing was felt.

It could be because it was very shallow and caught only a small amount of energy.

I couldn’t help but worry about not feeling anything like this.

I kept trying to talk to him, wondering if I could have a conversation like Shin Noya.

Only the petty beast answered.

[Kleung…?]

‘I didn’t call you, so go back to sleep.’

[… Kkeureung…]

Did Wi Seol-ah disappear?

That kind of anxiety is quite fleeting.

It wouldn’t be surprising if it disappeared. Because I did my best on my own.

What I haven’t been able to ask and what I haven’t been able to say.

As it was purely my lingering feelings, I couldn’t help it even if she disappeared.

Wi Seol-ah, who had closed her eyes in my arms at the time, opened her eyes again shortly after.

The words spoken by Wiseol-ah, who faced me with wide eyes as usual, were still clear.

– Confucius…?

It was bitter.

I feel a sense of relief at the fact that it has returned to normal.

What came first was regret and unknown fatigue.

Wi Seol-ah stood up as if she noticed something while looking at my expression.

-sister…? My sister…

said so.

I could hear and notice it. Even Wiseol-ah knew of her existence.

If so, how far do you know?

Do you even know her identity? So, do you know about my situation?

Should I have asked that?

Maybe it was.

But those were not the words that came out of my mouth.

-sorry.

– Confucius…?

-Sorry. Not now… Let’s talk later.

After stroking Wi Seol-ah’s hair a few times and taking her to the building, I found this place.

I was concerned.

It’s because he knows that he shouldn’t leave Wi Seol-ah behind.

Even so, it was difficult to stand still.

Did he really disappear?

It could be.

However, I was hoping not.

Although everything said she was gone.

I thought no.

It’s because of the voice I heard near the end.

-Do you want to embrace it?

A sweet and warm voice.

Even the feel of the hands wrapped around my arms.

‘…mother.’

That voice is clear.

It was her mother’s voice that had been hidden in a memory so far away that she had never heard it.

How the hell did that happen?

I thought while moving my body.

The World Tree told me in the Devil’s Eye.

-Your mother is alive.

that my mother is alive

This is a fact I know.

‘…Rather than knowing he was alive.’

When I was young, I just saw my mother heading to the demonic gate that was open in the air.

I just couldn’t tell if he was dead or not.

However, if the voice at that time says that mother is right.

‘Where are you…?’

How did you know to speak?

After that, I tried to hear my mother’s voice again, but there was no answer.

‘Do you know something?’

stroke the tummy

The World Tree said that this beast had something to do with my mother, so I wondered if it was something.

[Kreung?]

He just expressed his doubts as if asking what he meant.

Checking it out, I bit my lip.

‘I told you to hold it.’

Embrace the energy of the new sword that was gradually disappearing.

The voice clearly said so.

The energy that made it impossible to move at all was instantly neutralized.

If it is related to the mother’s voice.

must have meant something

All the more so if she was in the position to hear from the World Tree what her mother was like.

‘Did he say he was the owner of the world?’

Even the World Tree is an existence that cannot be easily approached.

The second disaster that befell this world.

Just by listening to these two lines of explanation, I could tell that my mother was an unusual person.

That my mother tried to help me.

‘If the owner of the voice is the mother, it would be so.’

Or it could be the intervention of another being. It was something I didn’t know yet.

In the end, I heard the words and had energy, but I didn’t know anything about what to do afterwards.

If you’re looking for a way, there’s only one way.

‘I have to find my mother.’

This is an absurd conclusion.

I knew that the Devil’s Land was not one place, and I knew that there was no easy way to get there.

I had to find it though.

Right now… after all, the only person who knows what happened to the new sword is her mother.

To do that.

‘I need to meet my father.’

A certain existence that seems to know what happened to my mother.

As of now, it was only the head of the Gu family and my father.

After worrying like that first.

I thought I should go find my companions in order to cool my complicated head.

I couldn’t find it properly because of what was going to happen, and I had to go to Wiseol-ah now.

The moment I was about to move like that.

“…!”

I had no choice but to stop walking because of the terrifying feeling.

It was because there was someone beyond the dark gaze.

‘Since when?’

I didn’t notice.

The unknown figure was looking this way with his back against the wall.

I had never felt this unknown sensation before.

That means that person must be…

“…see you, senior.”

As soon as he figured out his identity, he took possession and set an example.

After hearing my words, the person withdrew his back from the wall and approached me.

As I came out of the darkness and approached the moonlight, the face of the opponent came into my eyes.

I knew it.

The man’s true identity was the King of Darkness.

Hiding my tremors, I looked at the dark king.

The dark king has the same expressionless face as when I first saw him. A cold expression that made it impossible to know what he was thinking or feeling.

Such a cancer king tells me.

“I waited for you because you seem to be concentrating.”

There is an unspoken rule that says you shouldn’t steal other people’s training.

The Dark King didn’t seem to care about that.

Me too.

“Do you have any business with me?”

“I should have said I would come see you last time?”

“…that’s right…”

I did say that.

I really thought I would come to see it.

‘Isn’t that human also normal?’

Don’t you think how terrifying it would be to be in a situation where a nobleman who became the Dark King said he would come to see me?

Hey, if you become a master like that, you won’t be able to take care of each of those things.

It is a world where power is power.

‘He can kill even the triad if he wants.’

It’s a rumor that’s spreading around the world.

If the dark king really wanted to, he could even kill the triad.

If he wishes, he can even kill the Three Zones, who are said to be at the very end of the numerous warriors spread across the midfield.

Most of those who heard this judged it to be just a rumor full of bubbles trying to tell the greatness of the dark king.

When I met him in person, I thought that it would be possible if the situation supported me.

‘I can hardly feel the presence.’

Even though he is standing right in front of his eyes, his presence is still vague. Fortunately, it doesn’t feel like the last time.

I don’t know what effect the mask the Dark King wears. I could feel a very slight presence.

I didn’t feel it at all when I was naked.

“Little boy.”

“Yes… senior.”

It’s an annoying title, but I didn’t say anything about it.

From his point of view, I would be a kid.

At first glance, it seems to be somewhere between Lee Lip and Unho.

Dark King is definitely an old master who existed even in the era when Iljangro was active.

It was said that the age could not be determined by the appearance.

When he sees me like that, the Dark King suddenly speaks.

“The more you look, the more you resemble each other.”

It is a word familiar to the ears. I guess that’s what I’ve heard.

“I hear it often.”

you mean father

Most of the people who usually look at me and say that I look like them said that.

“hmm?”

Of course I thought so. Upon hearing my words, the Dark King tilted his head slightly.

…isn’t it?

“Aren’t you saying that you resemble my father?”

“no.”

“Uh… then. Who are you saying I look like?”

I wondered if I was talking about the one-elder.

It’s kind of strange to say that I look like that old man.

I feel a bit bad too.

when you’re thinking like that.

Whether he knew what I was thinking or not, the Dark King told me about another person.

“I mean your grandfather.”

“Your grandfather?”

That’s what I heard before.

I wondered at that time too, but what kind of relationship do you have with the dark king and your grandfather?

The moment I tried to ask again with a question.

“If they look alike too… they probably aren’t blood relatives.”

“yes?”

The Dark King begins to tell an unknown story.

“I really doubt it.”

“What are you talking about…”

Tuk.

“…!”

I wanted to ask the Dark King what the hell he meant.

I couldn’t.

The dark king standing in front hid his form for a moment.

Because it appeared right in front of me and grabbed my right arm.

Is it a surprise?

What surprised me was the moment I tried to raise my bet to full.

“Little boy.”

The Dark King immediately rolls up my arms.

‘this…!’

It was cold.

There were traces of minecraft left there.

A skin the size of a thumb that looks like the scales of a reptile.

When you want to know how to do this.

He looks at my skin and says.

“What relationship do you have with Yeonga?”

“…what?”

After hearing that, I had to ask again without knowing it.

Because it came out of nowhere so out of the blue.
