I Have Come To End This Fight

Episode 33. granularity (2)

“Have you heard that you are a Yum?”

Yuri’s eyebrows twitched at the slightly dismissive tone.

He replied with a slight snort.

“Yum people? Isn’t that the descendant of an ancient giant?”

“Ohh? I know?”

“Even if I didn’t learn it, the things I picked up are quite good. Anyway, aren’t the Yums one of the blood relatives of the ancient heterogeneous race?”

Descendants of ancient giants, the Yum.

Descendants of the ancient Elves, the Rin.

Descendants of ancient dwarves, the Gauls.

It is said that a long time ago, the heterogeneous race of pure blood became extinct, and only mixed blood mixed with human blood survived.

And those who survived are continuing the blood of the ancient heterogeneous people in the form of closed clans.

… That was the story Yuri picked up.

And it was true.

John nodded and added an explanation.

“It’s quite good. right. A descendant of the ancient giants. And among them there is a tribe called monks.”

“monk?”

“Perverts who seek the light of the soul through penance.”

“however?”

“It is their tradition to cremate the body of a Yum monk after a long period of penance and return to nothingness when his breath runs out. And at that time, crystals of brilliant color are found among the cremated bone powder… … .”

Yuri’s footsteps, which flinched, slowly slowed down.

Eventually, he completely stopped in place and said with a slight twist between his brows.

“Ah, can you? isn’t it?”

“Is that right?”

“… really?”

“Yes, a crystal from the body of a dead Yum monk. that’s shari Even if it looks like an ordinary piece of stone, it is an item that the Yum clan holds very dear.”

“No, why do you value something like that?!”

“Why, it’s because there is a power that interferes with the soul and spirit blood through that small crystal. Thanks to that, you were able to stop the spirit blood, right?”

“Yeah, don’t do that. Aren’t you embarrassed that it came from a dead body?”

“It’s embarrassing for a lackey like you. The fact that Shari came out of the dead monk’s body is proof that the process of asceticism went well. It is a very honorable thing.”

Yuuri’s face softened at that explanation.

he replied bluntly.

“Yes, I’m sorry for being an underhanded bastard.”

Then, as if he didn’t want to hear it anymore, Yohan put his hand on Yuri’s shoulder as he was about to walk away and grabbed him.

“why?”

Yohan grinned and said at Yuri’s eyes full of questions about himself.

“The most important thing is to listen.”

“huh?”

“Shari has one side effect.”

“… side effect?”

What are the sudden side effects?

Did you sense something ominous?

Yuri swallowed dry saliva.

“What, what are the side effects?”

“hehehe, right… … .”

After a moment’s pause, Yohan lowered his voice and answered.

“It means the ghosts are sticking to it.”

“… … .”

3 seconds of brief silence.

The reaction came belatedly.

“… yes?”

Embarrassed, Yuri instantly thought she had heard it wrong.

“Now, did you not hear me? what… Are you sticking?”

In response to Yu-Ri’s awkward question, Yohan spoke very kindly and bluntly.

“They say the ghosts are sticking to it.”

“… … .”

Additional explanations follow.

“Since Shari itself is a crystal of pure spiritual power, it is said that ghosts are very crazy about it. Hee hee hee.”

“… Are you kidding?”

“Is this like a joke?”

“… … .”

“So, avoid going to places where many people have died or going to graves. In particular, don’t even come close to the place where the ghost is! Unless you want to be haunted by evil spirits.”

“… … ?!”

Yuri’s face hardened beyond anything else.

Yuri’s hand slipped up to the hilt of the sword.

His fingertips were trembling slightly.

And a trembling voice came out of his mouth.

“Inspiration, by any chance… … .”

“What?”

“Because I’m really in love… really… I’m just asking out of curiosity.”

“What do you want to ask, but you’re so rude?”

“Even to the ghost… Will I get stabbed?”

“… … .”

“Do you know how to stab a ghost?”

“… … .”

“… … .”

As soon as Yuri’s question was finished, a strange silence hung over the space where the two were standing.

Then John indifferently threw a word.

“Are you scared?”

The reaction to this was intense.

“You were scared!”

Yuri, who shouted out loud, lowered her eyes slightly and replied in a condescending manner.

“I, I just want to research whether I can inflict physical damage on ears and ghosts… … .”

“Ohh? okay?”

“Oh, you know?”

“no.”

“Why do not you know?”

“Should I know?”

“… It would be nice to know.”

“If you’re really curious about it, why don’t you study hard? I wish you good results. Phehehehe.”

Boo- Boo-.

As soon as John finished speaking, a short horn sounded, urging the reserve riders to board again.

And as a sign of this, John’s model faded and disappeared.

“Hey, inspiration!”

Yuri hurriedly stretched out her hand, but only the wind lingered where John was already.

“… … .”

The words he said lingered in Yuri’s ears along with the dreary wind that lingered in the place where John had disappeared.

[It means that the ghost is attached.]

[The ghost clings… … .]

[The ghost… … . ]

Yuri’s face turned pale at the infinitely repeated ‘ghost’ sound.

“Ears, ghosts… … .”

Yuri, who thought there would be nothing scary in the world, is the only thing she fears and hates.

It was a formless ‘ghost’.

‘How can I beat a ghost?’

I can’t hit a ghost, but a ghost can hit me.

What an absurd and fearful existence!

Therefore, Yuri couldn’t help but worry.

“earring… Shall I take it out?”

Yuri’s pupils shook greatly from deep anguish.

* * *

Woo-woo-.

With the sound of a long horn, a sailboat with 500 reserve riders, including Yuri, left the port.

John sat on the roof of a shopping mall not far from the harbour, watching the sailboat sail away.

‘There’s no one to bully, so I’ll be bored for a while.’

Bringing glass into the cradle.

This was a plan he had made from the moment he first saw Yuri.

At first, I never thought the plan was wrong.

Under the premise that the strong take all, Cradle was the only place in the world that provided near-infinite benefits to those who simply hoped to become stronger.

Therefore, the initial idea of bringing Yuri into the cradle was firm.

… That is until he noticed that Yuri’s talent far exceeded his expectations.

Yuri’s talent shocked even John, who was praised as one of the greatest geniuses.

So, just by not sending him into the cradle and training with him, Yuri will grow exponentially.

At such thoughts, the firm thought to send Yuri to the cradle cracked for the first time.

After that, John was troubled.

Whether or not it is right to bring glass into the cradle.

The reason he made that decision was the moment he saw Yuri unleash his magic.

‘The guy’s talent was evolving.’

A phenomenal talent that goes beyond what he taught himself.

Seeing this, Yohan realized that he did not need to be by Yuri’s side all the time.

Whether you are confident or not, Yuri will grow steeply.

He knew that the role of pruning twigs so that he could grow up was enough, just looking into the glass often.

Come to think of it, the cradle was the best environment for Yuri to grow.

‘Experiences in the cradle… The experience that can only be experienced in the cradle at Yuri’s age will be a good foundation for his growth.’

The experience that could be experienced in the cradle was not something that even oneself could give.

‘In addition, various benefits from the cradle are also not easily obtainable.’

If he could monopolize the various benefits of the cradle, the ripple effect would be great.

Yohan wanted Yuri to do so in his heart, but he didn’t show it until the moment Yuri left.

because he knew

‘Even if I don’t say it, if it’s his f*cking personality… They’ll try to swallow everything in the cradle like a hungry ghost.’

Yuri’s greed was to the point that he was afraid even to see himself.

Whether it’s the financial part or the part related to growth.

Yuri was a monster who did not hesitate to express his longing, and worked ferociously to obtain it.

‘Originally, I planned to make it just enough so that it wouldn’t explode even if I went into the cradle… … .’

In fact, I thought it might be difficult.

It was a short period of less than a year, so it was considered successful even if it was just the basics.

But the problem is that this monster has grown too big in the short span of less than a year.

To the point where even he couldn’t handle the growth.

‘Will the innocent little ones of the cradle be able to handle that beggar?’

The dragon’s cradle was a cage where the young beasts were gathered.

However, it was the Imoogi that he had released inside.

A black serpent that would ascend to heaven as soon as Yeouiju was made.

Squeak-.

Yohan looked at the back of the sailboat as it receded and poured the last remaining alcohol into it.

“Kha!”

A hot stomach.

At the same time, his red-hot gaze turned to the far side of the lake, in the direction of the dragon’s cradle.

A low voice escaped from his mouth as he stared at the wide horizon.

“It is fertile soil for talent to blossom… … .”

In the past, the Sword Master had been proclaimed.

He said that he would become fertile soil for talented people to bloom.

The place where he was born was the dragon’s cradle.

The corner of John’s mouth twitched at the thought of this.

“Can the soil you have created, Sword Master, be able to handle the seeds I sowed?”

Does the land of the Dragon’s Cradle contain enough nutrients for the seeds of glass to grow?

If not… … .

‘Sword Lord, your land… I don’t know if it will be devastated and withered.’

If it were a greedy monster seed that fell on the land of the strongest take all, it would greedily suck up everything the land has.

“Keuheulheul.”

Just imagining what will happen in the future at the cradle seems to be fun, and laughter escapes John’s mouth.

and.

Whoo-.

The figure of John disappeared suddenly, mingled with the blowing wind.

* * *

The windless weather continued, and the black sailboat continued cruising.

It’s been five days since we started sailing.

Boys and girls dressed in black roamed around inside the black ship cutting through the calm water.

The reserve riders of Yoram changed into the black tops and pants provided by the Black Swordsman, not the clothes they had been wearing.

The black jacket was long-sleeved for ease of movement, but it was thin enough to be worn only in spring and summer.

Even if the ice hasn’t frozen yet, it’s inappropriate clothes to wear in the middle of winter when the cold wind blows.

However, even if they were young, the cold of winter was not much of a problem for those who had mana.

Rather, it was the time of the voyage where strange tension continued to bother the young prospective riders.

503 reserve riders of 50 planes from all over the world.

The place they are heading to is an unknown land where they do not know what will happen in the future, and the name is also a great dragon’s cradle.

There, prospective jockeys were bound to become competitors, whether they liked it or not.

None of the people on board were unaware of this.

In addition, they grew up receiving higher education, and were called gifted, gifted, and genius in their own way.

The prospective jockeys immediately realized what they had to do and went into action.

A rider who pays attention to those who look stronger than himself.

Jockeys who discriminate against the weak to be prey and mark them.

Before the full-scale competition begins, the period of sailing to the cradle became a time of exploration.

Even without anyone telling them, the children started to check each other.

Someone remembered this.

‘Isn’t this what the cradle side intended to put us all in one place, regardless of the rooms?’

From nob le mt l dot com

Maybe the competition started from the moment you get on the black ship.

By the time the time of searching to some extent came to an end.

Based on the accumulated information about each other, the reserve riders moved on to the next step.

It was the beginning of a full-fledged side split.
