1st place in the ranking is the villager

– Volume 6 Episode 15

15. What Was Under It (3)

Skills such as swordsmanship, magic, crafting, and other searches are learned from NPCs, but in the case of divine magic, power is given to Eve through the NPC.

Although the power differs depending on the NPC that helps you receive Eve’s power.

Therefore, in swordsmanship and magic, it is expressed as ‘growth’, but in the case of divine magic, it is expressed as ‘closer to God’.

“That’s why Holy Magic prepares a very small event when you reach the advanced level. In the form of an oracle, it delivers very small helpful stories to the player.”

“Then I…?”

“In the case of Hoya, he was baptized through the legendary Reina, so the event became an encounter with a god rather than an oracle.

“That’s right…”

Hoya, who was agreeing with Eve’s words, suddenly remembered one fact.

“Oh! This is not the time! How do I get out of here?”

He had no idea how the situation of Kwon Il-woo and the court ladies would have changed while he was doing this here.

In the worst case, all the court ladies could have died at the hands of Kwon Il-woo.

Hoya’s heart suddenly became urgent.

“It’s fine. Don’t worry too much.”

Then Eve came up to Hoya and, while holding Badu with his left arm, stroked his head with his right hand.

“Time didn’t pass outside. So once we get out, let’s think about what we’re going to do.”

“……Yes.”

Hoya thought about how he would move when he got back.

He didn’t have to think deeply.

When he met Eve, his divine power of 400 rose, all stats exceeded 1000, and he even got a powerful skill and title that was fatal to Kwon Il-woo.

A lot has changed since I came here.

“That… when are you going to put your hands away?”

“Yes? Ah… Hohoho, think of it as the hand of God and accept it with joy!”

Eve knocked Hoya on the head and he sent him and his Badu back to where they were.

Hoya and Badu disappeared, and Eve was the only man. A male voice stuck in her ear.

– Eve, how was it? good?

And at the same time, a holographic window with the face of a middle-aged man appeared in front of her sight.

One of the people who created AI Eve was Lee Tae-seong, the chairman of Neo Wars.

– Why didn’t you just spread it out just because it was nice?

“Do you think I’ll handle things like that, father? There’s a clear distinction between private and public affairs. I only gave you what you had to give.”

– Hmm? What was it in the old days?

“Ugh…! That’s the first and last time! There’s no problem in the game, and you’re keeping your promises!”

-Ha ha ha ha ha. OK got it. So how was it? Do you feel different from usual?

At Lee Tae-sung’s question, Eve showed the brightest smile in the world.

“It’s natural. It’s because the way you were made and meeting your real sister as a sister are different… …but I couldn’t express it.”

Eve’s expression looked somewhat relieved.

‘Now you don’t have to run around.’* * *

The position of Kwon Il-woo and the court ladies and the situation inside the cavity, everything was the same as just before frowned at the bright light.

The other thing was that Kwon Il-woo’s expression was slightly wrinkled.

“You bastard, what the hell have you done?”

Kwon Il-woo felt that Hoya’s power had risen, and to him, Hoya seemed to have gotten stronger without doing anything, so it was a natural question.

It was felt that a power that had not even been found in Badu had arisen.

‘I feel bad…’

For some reason, a feeling that it would be at a disadvantage to him if the battle was long rose creepily.

It was when Kwon Il-woo, who had accepted that, was about to move.

“Baduya, liberate.”

“Cruaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!!”

Liberation of the skill that made Badu intentionally refrain from using it due to the penalty of stat reduction that comes after the skill has ended.

He was planning to finish it before the penalty came out, so Hoya recommended Badu to use the skill.

As Badu used his skill, Badu’s body grew bigger and his eyes gleamed sharply, and the white rope around his neck loosened.

And when all the knots were untied, the rope turned like a ring, spinning around Badu’s neck.

At the same time, Badu rushed at Kwon Il-woo at a speed significantly different from before.

Aww-!

“Aaaaaah!”

Kwon Il-woo, who could not respond properly to Badu’s sudden increase in speed, bit his left arm and shoulder and had to cut his stats at the same time.

“How dare this bastard stretch out my arm!”

Kwon Il-woo, who contorted his face in anger and stared at Badu, had to feel his body startled and trembling.

‘Is this that I felt fear…?’

It was fear caused by the instinctive rejection of Badu’s power and divinity, which had doubled in an instant due to liberation.

I had a strong feeling that it would be a bit dangerous without one arm.

‘That beast is dangerous.’

With that in mind, Kwon Il-woo changed his goal from revenge against Badu to court ladies to restore his HP and regenerate his arms, and aimed at them.

He had Hoya in front of the court ladies, but he thought it was possible enough to break through.

Then, something happened that Kwon Il-woo could not have imagined.

“Descent.”

Pah-!

As Hoya spoke, a pillar of light pierced the ceiling and fell over his head.

The pillar of light immediately turned into light powder and disappeared, and in its place stood Hoya with bluish-silver hair that felt as sacred as Eve.

As he entered the battle with Kwon Il-woo, his eyes, which were obscured by the gaze of the dead tree he took out from his inventory, were also blue like Eve.

The divine energy he was spreading around was like poison to Kwon Il-woo.

‘But if you pass quickly, that’s it!’

Damage received from his divine energy can only be recovered by court ladies.

Kwon Il-woo thought so, but his wish did not come true.

“The space of judgment.”

As soon as Kwon Il-woo passed Hoya, Hoya said that, and a wall of light appeared in all directions around him, blocking the front of Kwon Il-woo.

He tried to break through, but he couldn’t.

“I can’t send you there.”

When Hoya spoke to Kwon Il-woo, who was constantly attacking the wall to break it down, he turned his head and looked at Hoya with eyes that seemed to eat him.

But, behind Hoya, there was a roaring Badu with big eyes shining even more intensely.

* * *

“Just what is that light!”

The pillar of light that fell on Hoya was a light that came down from the sky and fell from the gods, so the long pillar could be seen by everyone outside.

And Kim Cheong-do, who saw the light through the window paper, left his room and grabbed a soldier who was passing by urgently and inquired about the situation.

“Oh, that… It is said that some kind of light fell on the Emperor’s bedroom. I’m just about to be called, so I don’t know the details.”

“what?”

At the soldier’s words, Kim Cheong-do inwardly guessed the current situation.

‘Is this what Hyeonu-nim did?’

Kim Cheong-do thought so and followed the soldier.

‘It’s too conspicuous to be called an assassination, Hyeonu-nim!’

Numerous soldiers and ministers had already arrived around the emperor’s sleeping quarters.

And just in time, the moment Kim Cheong-do arrived, an eunuch popped out of the emperor’s bedroom with a contemplative face.

“Your Majesty, Your Majesty is not in the bedroom!”

At those words, confusion was drawn on the faces of everyone except those who decided to stand under Kwon Hyeon-woo, including Kim Cheong-do.

If the eunuch had seen the open secret door behind the bedside, the words from his mouth would have been different, but he did not see it.

“Hey, is that true! Did you thoroughly check it?!”

“Well, that’s…, I’ve only confirmed it with my own eyes…”

“Then get out of the way! I’ll have to check it out myself!”

It was when one of the court officials pushed the eunuch and stepped into the entrance to enter the emperor’s bedroom.

Kugugugugugugung-.

The ground shook like an earthquake, and the emperor’s bedroom and its backyard collapsed into the ground, creating a huge cloud of dust.

“Blood, avoid!”

“Everyone fall!”

The ministers and eunuchs were evacuated away so that the nearby soldiers would not get caught up in it.

After that, when I looked at the place where the dust cloud that had formed when all the bedrooms collapsed, there was not a single trace of the bedroom left.

Instead, there was a huge hole in the place where the bed had been.

As the soldiers approached and checked, they saw the remains of a shattered and shattered bed lying beneath a large hole that appeared to be about three stories high.

And on one side of the hole, there was a huge black beast crouching with a white ring around its neck.

“Shut up, watch out!”

When the general said that, the soldiers surrounded the hole, those who had come with bows pulled their bowstrings, and those who had come with swords and spears put their weapons forward.

“Kreorre….”

The crouched black beast rose as he swept up the rubble of the building that covered it, and saw people below.

Among the people under it, there was a person that caught my eye.

A man whose clothes were all black, and his hair was almost white, bluish-silver.

The soldiers felt an unusual aura from him and his beast, and gave more strength to the bowstring and the hand holding the weapon.

“Aren’t you Hyangdan?””Oh, old man!”

At that time, Kim Cheong-do, who approached him, recognized the hyangdan and announced the fact in a loud voice.

At that moment, even in the eyes of the guarding soldiers, the appearance of women around them began to appear, not the men with bluish-silver hair.

They were all released while working in the palace.

“Well, what. How things are going…”

“Why are they here?”

Confusion spread around those they knew because they had come and went back and forth, and in the meantime, the blue-silver haired man and the black giant beast disappeared.

“What, where did you go!”

“Find it! Search all around!”

“Everyone, stop!”

The moment the soldiers were about to move in search of the missing man and beast, Kim Cheong-do made a loud noise and stopped the movement of the soldiers.

“You guys don’t know what’s your priority right now! It’s better to rescue them and find His Majesty than chasing after enemies! His Majesty is most likely covered in the rubble of a building. Move quickly!”

“Yes, old!”

Soldiers who could jump on Kim Cheong-do’s horse jumped, while those who couldn’t, brought a rope and rode down or climbed down the wall.

‘It must have been time to buy…….’

Frankly, from Kim Cheong-do’s point of view, it didn’t matter what the emperor was.

The reason he said that was to buy time for the blue-silver haired man who seemed to be moving at Kwon Hyeon-woo’s order to escape.

* * *

“Huh…”

Returning to the Black Dragon’s garrison using the Hearthstone, Hoya lay flat on the floor and stroked Badu’s shrunken head.

“Badu, thanks to you, I lived.”

“Wow!”

Hoya used Explosion at the end of the fight with Kwon Il-woo.

Although the space is underground and court ladies exist, if you use the space of judgment, the inside and outside cannot interfere with each other.

In other words, the attack does not leak out.

But something unexpected happened.

The turbid magic bracelet reacted to the exploit, and two of the additional exploits that had been cast exploded after Kwon Il-woo was declared dead.

The underground collapsed as if the two exploits broke the barrier that Kwon Il-woo had spoken of.

If Badu had not been an umbrella, all the court ladies would have been killed or seriously injured by the rubble.

After stroking Badu and playing around for a while, the door opened and Jo Jo-yeon and Choi Do entered.

Jo Jo-yeon was in a state of being fully armed with a sword on her waist wearing double armor.

Because of the incident at the palace, the Black Dragon was also ordered to be summoned, so he had to change clothes in order to comply with it.

“You’re back, things have worked out…”

“Yeah. There were a few things, but it was eventually resolved.”

I wanted to explain some of those things, but because the access time limit was close, Hoya decided to postpone the explanation until tomorrow.

Hoya looked at Jo Yeon to apologize and log out.

And I could see him staring at him.

“General Joe…?”

After staring at Hoya for a long time, he pointed his finger at Hoya and carefully opened his mouth.

“…Where did the clothes come from?”
