9. Episode 9

next day.

There was about an hour left until the third monster wave.

“Is everyone ready?”

“How do we… … .”

“Could you gather some rocks to throw in the woods? Even if you keep me in check from behind, it will be of great help.”

“Ah, I see!”

“I saved the leftovers so they wouldn’t go bad! It’s not even smoked, but you won’t have to worry about it for a day or two!”

“I didn’t even think of that, but you worked hard!”

“hehehe, leave the food to me!”

Compared to the first day, people’s behavior has changed a hundred and eighty degrees.

Everyone was looking for their own role, such as preparing for battle in preparation for the monster wave, bringing water or supplying various materials.

Of course, there are still people who can’t come to their senses.

‘It’s definitely different from before.’

before i return

Originally, before the third monster wave, there were many people who were still trembling in fear as there were many casualties and injuries.

There were some people who moved their bodies with dark expressions to survive, but it wasn’t enough to feel the energy like now.

‘It must be because of Yuseo.’

Yoo Seo-ah stood at the center of the active people.

Is it because of the various things that happened yesterday and the conversation with Seun? She completely abandoned her passive attitude and commanded people with dignity.

Since people were following her well, it was the moment when the leader of the camp was implicitly decided.

‘That’s good.’

Sewoon also had the heart to lead the camp, but he had no intention of becoming the leader.

Most of all, except for the monster wave, he has to go around outside the camp and find all sorts of hidden pieces.

In that sense, it was a very welcome thing for him to have Yoo Seo-ah, who is not anyone else, take the leadership position.

With everyone doing their own thing, Sewoon was able to have his personal time with peace of mind.

– Opened the treasure house of greed.

[ Blue Mana Circle ]

– In the Blue Magic Tower, one of the Seven Great Magic Towers of the Empire, an arcane training method that is only passed on to wizards with extremely high affinity for mana.

mana circle.

It is the most basic element that a wizard must have to implement magic.

In order to use the same power as the ‘Casa Flame’ used last night, it is necessary to train the mana circle as quickly as possible.

And the mana circle training method that Seun chose was known to have high stability, but the efficiency of collecting mana was the lowest among the seven magic towers.

But why did Sewoon choose this?

‘Anyway, there are many training methods.’

It was because of the numerous treasures piled up in the warehouse and the ‘confidence’ that they could accommodate them all.

First of all, after clearing the foundation with the training method of Cheongtap, build a pillar using a more excellent training method on a solid foundation.

As for the walls and roof around it, Seun plans to use the best method he envisioned to accumulate mana.

‘I can’t even miss the cut.’

You can collect mana through the mana circle, but this is just a training method for using magic.

It converts mana into internal energy to speed up body movement and is not suitable for using martial arts. So, whenever I can afford it, I plan to refine not only the mana circle but also the danteon.

“Whoa… … .”

Smooth as a river flows. He chews on the tricks of the blue tower that he realized through Mamon’s treasure, and controls his breath.

Close your eyes, sit comfortably in your seat, and exhale lightly.

Fill the empty lungs with breath. The stomach and chest visibly expand, and the breath stops for a very short time.

ugh-

It is felt.

The intangible aura, also called mana or inner energy, stayed inside Seun’s body through his breath.

It took a few weeks at the earliest or years at the latest to feel this energy for ordinary people, but Sewoon felt it all at once.

Although he did not have abilities specialized in combat, Seun was the last survivor to reach the 92nd floor of the tower before returning.

So, it was about mana, and I was able to handle it as naturally as breathing.

Even with an unfamiliar body, it was easy to ‘feel’ that it did not handle mana.

‘The problem starts after this.’

I try to talk to him by gently coaxing the energy trapped in his lungs.

won’t you stay here?

won’t you come with me

A very small amount of energy among the small ones nodded, being dazzled by Seun’s beguiling.

“Whoa… … .”

As soon as you succeed in coaxing, exhale again in a long breath.

All the energy that rejects Seun’s proposal is released, and the energy that is accepted moves toward the heart.

Following Seun’s guidance, a very small amount of mana begins to circulate around Seun’s heart.

– You have succeeded in creating the first mana circle through the training method of the blue tower.

– A circle has been created, making it possible to collect mana and use magic.

– Depending on the level of the mana circle, the level, power, and speed of the magic that can be used increases.

– Achieved outstanding achievements.

– Acquired 1,000 points as a reward.

It didn’t even take a day.

one hour. No, it took less than 30 minutes to create a mana circle and accept mana.

Although it was helped by memories from before returning and the ‘Training Method of the Blue Tower’, if anyone who knew even a little bit of magic saw it, they would be surprised with their mouth wide open.

Even if you are a genius, it will take at least a few days to feel and accept mana.

As if to prove that, new messages emerged from Seun’s future.

-The constellation ‘Three Sisters Back to Back’ looks at you with wide eyes.

-The constellation ‘The Virgin of Heaven’ exclaims in admiration for you.

-The constellation, ‘the one who knows’… … .

Several gods related to magic or possessing related powers showed interest in Sewoon.

The god of witchcraft, starting with Hecate, Isis, and Bainaemöinen.

There were names of constellations that Seun knew, but there were also many names he had never heard of.

however.

‘It has nothing to do with me anyway.’

Sewoon was already possessed by ‘Mamon’, the demon of greed, and ‘Beelzebub’, the demon of gluttony.

I didn’t really become their apostle, but no matter what I looked at, the two Demon Gods were much higher in rank than the constellations that have come to mind.

as if to prove it.

-The constellation ‘The Hungry Prince’ shows a tearful expression saying that the number of customers has increased.

-The constellation ‘Crow with Head Down’ frowns and takes out a treasure from the warehouse.

-Constellation, ‘a nasty white-haired old man’… … .

pop.

The messages from the Constellations that appeared in succession were cut off like lies.

-The constellation ‘Crow with its Head Down’ has blocked all communications with constellations lower than itself.

‘crazy… … .’

Are you blocking communication?

Of course, it’s possible, but it was the first time Sewoon saw it with his own two eyes.

I knew that no matter how high-ranking an existence was, it would take a lot of energy to interfere with the system like this.

I don’t know what the ‘treasure’ that Mamon used is, but it must have been a treasure powerful enough to interfere with the system.

‘Everyone must be upset.’

No matter how good or evil, it was more than polite to cut off communication like this.

By now, all the Constellations whose communication was cut off must have been filled with anger.

-Constellation, ‘The Hungry Prince’ is relieved as he looks at the missing diners.

-The constellation ‘Crow with Head Down’ quietly watches you.

Of course, the two Demon Gods didn’t seem to care what the other Constellations thought.

After the incident passed, Seun rotated the mana circle again and carefully inhaled.

Although the efficiency was not high like the training method of the blue tower, it was clear that the circle was firmly established with mana as if the ground was being compacted.

As his concentration increased, the voice of Yoo Seo-ah and the sound of people walking around him completely disappeared.

Only one thing is recognized.

It was only mana, a ray of energy permeating through careful breathing.

While concentrating on turning the mana circle without noticing the passage of time, he heard a voice waking him up.

“… … older brother! do you catch What, a person is sleeping while sitting.”

[Tutorial Chapter 1 – Adaptation]

-12 minutes left until the third monster wave.

I immediately raised my head, wondering if it was because of the monster wave, but there was still time left.

There aren’t many people at this camp who can confidently come and talk to Sewoon.

After doing something, he turned around and saw a man with short hair standing in front of Seun.

‘Why this guy?’

A threatening impression, big and small wounds. Between the rolled-up sleeves, a tattoo that appeared to be a snake was wriggling.

Even in the same camp, it is Se-Won who cannot remember the details except for those who survived for a long time and became a ranker, but this man did remember it accurately.

on the bad side

“Oh, you woke up! I wondered if he was dead after sitting here for an hour and not moving. ha ha!”

“What is going on?”

“Oh, you are too cold. We’re all in the same situation, would it be nice if we got along well?”

Park Jeong-pil.

It’s this guy.

The existence that tormented Sewoon before returning.

When everyone was in chaos, he showed off his strength, put the weak in front, put the old man in the front saying that the younger should live, and took away food.

‘Is it because circumstances have changed?’

Suppose there was no time to go out during the first raid. Even in the second raid, the guy didn’t do anything that would be a problem.

Sewoon recalled the guy’s personality and soon understood why the guy came to him.

‘Well, he’s originally like this.’

Before returning, the guy hid behind Kang Kang-cheol and wielded his power.

At the time, the leader had not been established, and Kang Kang-chul only cared about himself, so he could run amok with peace of mind.

Yeo-to-gang (茹柔吐剛).

Typically strong against the weak and weak against the strong.

It was said that Kang Han-cheol was the strongest before returning, but now, no matter what anyone says, Sewoon is showing the strongest power, so he must have come this way.

“I came here just to be friends. As you can see, I don’t have any close friends yet. How good is it when we help each other?”

The moments I suffered because of him are still vivid in my memory.

He was forced to face monsters naked, and was even pushed into the woods for reconnaissance.

Thanks to this, I was able to realize the power of the ‘guidelines of the journey’, but that is only a conclusion.

I wanted to get rid of him right away, but I couldn’t give a reason saying, ‘He harassed me before I returned!’

at that time.

‘Well, he came first anyway.’

sh*t.

An evil smile appeared on Seun’s face.

In response, Park Jung-pil instinctively felt the danger and took a step back.

“You, are your legs a bit fast?”

“leg? What are you talking about all of a sudden?”

leg.

Right before the monster wave, what does the question of fast legs mean?

Park Jeong-pil, who was thinking about this, soon realized the meaning and his face turned pale.

“No, it’s slow! I have a reputation for slow legs in the neighborhood. I don’t know if you’ve heard of the turtles of Daesan-dong! hahahaha!”

I desperately tried to make an excuse, but it was too late.

“You should be some bait.”
