Chapter 239

Park Si-jun went to Isaac’s mansion.

There were not many users in the spacious and splendid mansion. There were very few users.

“It’s a quiet place.”

“It gets noisy when there are many people. I wanted to be a little quiet here.”

Isaac went to his room.

A room that serves as both a study and a bedroom. He sat down on a chair with a bottle of luxurious liquor.

“Would you like to drink?”

“No, I don’t drink.”

Isaac poured the drink, grunting that he was doing something worthwhile for his life.

While he was doing this, Si-Jun Park looked around.

‘Hmm… … ‘

The presence felt in the spacious mansion is small, but something is strange. There was a strange aura that was hard to describe.

Not this mansion, but somewhere on the island… … .

‘Dungeon Exploration.’

Park Si-joon immediately used the dungeon search skill. Then a system window appeared in front of him.

There was a faint smile on his lips.

‘Look at this.’

I couldn’t help but laugh.

Isaac took a sip of his drink. Ishimi and the cat, who were opposite them, stared intently at it.

“Should I give you something to eat?”

“Give it to me and I’ll be quiet for a while.”

“Wow!”

A snack was served as if the user was waiting. Ishimi spread her arms and smiled broadly.

It was a sight that took a deep breath, but Isaac watched with a happy smile.

“There’s been a lot of talk about you these days.”

Isaac broke the atmosphere. He looked at Park Si-jun’s hand with a face full of interest.

“Can you show me?”

I had no idea what to show you. Park Si-jun took out the Gallaria.

“Holy…”

Isaac’s expression changed.

He observed Galaria from a distance. A continuous exclamation flowed from his mouth.

“I don’t know how you handle this. If you ask me, I won’t even teach you. Isn’t it?”

“You’re talking natural.”

“It was a good time. If you had been a little weaker, your life would have been in danger.”

Isaac shook the glass.

“The power you have now is unknown… No one can guess the end. Aren’t you curious as to why the group of fanatics fled?”

Heize and the crowd. Park Si-jun thought they would attack.

But he didn’t and just walked away.

He said, “I can’t touch you prematurely. He doesn’t know what’s going to happen, but it means he’s not confident enough to act right away.”

“You’re putting too much gold on your face.”

“And networking and fame. You’ve become too big to attack prematurely. How do you feel?”

“I’m not interested.”

Park Si-joon snorted a little. He wasn’t too fussy enough to get excited by such a bubbly remark.

“There are things I want to entrust to you like that.”

Isaac tried to speak. Before that, Sijun Park opened his mouth first.

“You mean the holy sword?”

Isaac’s eyes widened.

how to do that I saw him mumble.

Park Si-jun looked at the system window in front of him.

[Dungeon: Storage]

A place created to store something. All kinds of traps and artificial creatures are guarding it.

+) The innermost sacred treasure is stored.

[Difficulty] A+

[Clear Conditions] Break through the dungeon and get rewards

[Appearance Attribute] Mechanical type

There was a dungeon around here.

Why is there a dungeon on this island? It was built to store something, and inside, sacred treasures are kept.

There was no need to think about what it was.

“Where is the holy sword, Isaac.”

“I entrusted it to the Association of the World.”

“I can feel the energy in this uninhabited island, is it my imagination or is it my mood?”

“I don’t know.”

Isaac just grabbed it. Until a while ago, I heard that there was something I wanted to entrust to you.

“…I was going to surprise you, but guessing it in advance makes me feel sick. That’s right, the Holy Sword is here.”

“When did you not say that you were keeping it in cooperation with the Association? I’ve heard such rumors.”

“At first, I thought so, but, for various reasons, I had to keep it. With the cooperation of several people.”

Isaac shrugged his shoulders.

“But it’s too heavy for me. I put it up for auction because I thought I’d just rob it.”

“Didn’t you just create an incident for nothing?”

“The older I get, the more mistakes I make. Anyway, you were the one who showed up at that time.”

Their eyes turned to Galaria.

A man who can handle sacred objects without making a contract with the mastermind. He was the man Isaac wanted.

“Are you going to hand me the bomb?”

“I’m giving you a treasure. Isn’t it nice?”

Isaac got up.

“Right now…”

“No, before that, I want to ask you something.”

“Yeah, that’s right.”

The biggest reason for coming here was the Holy Sword, but it also had a secondary purpose.

Gathering requested information. You have to hear the results.

“You asked me before. 10 years ago, I want you to investigate what you went through.”

“Yes, did you get any useful information?”

“I’ve looked for information. I’ve researched everything that happened in your country during the Cataclysm.”

“result?”

“I’m sorry, but I’m not very happy with it.”

Isaac shook his head. However, Park Si-jun was not particularly disappointed or disappointed.

It’s a matter of course. Park Si-jun also asked Cheongseong or others to collect various information.

But he couldn’t find any useful information.

“It was a time when literally the whole world was on fire. It was not easy to figure out what was happening in one country, even one in Asia.”

At the time of the Cataclysm, it was a time of chaos.

It may not be easy to obtain information even during peaceful times, but it is even more so during such times.

It was somewhat of a guess from the beginning.

“At first, I tried to find the CCTV footage. But it was not easy to find. There are some old ones, but it’s as if someone had hidden them.”

“Hidden?”

Park Si-joon’s face turned cold.

“Only one. There is one thing I recently got. It was kept at the Association of Seoul…”

“It’s collapsed now.”

“Um, I looked into the gap and looked into it, and there was one hidden thing. So I brought it.”

Isaac pointed to the screen on the wall. There was a blurry video coming out.

It was CCTV footage. If there is one problem.

“…It’s blurry.”

It was so blurry that I couldn’t see it.

The only thing I could see was the sight of the smashed subway, the figures of people running away, and the monsters.

“All CCTVs in Seoul’s subways have very low pixels. This was the best. But take a good look.”

A man was walking between them.

Park Si-jun narrowed his eyes. He looked closely and saw that his whole body was covered in blood.

“Do you know who it is?”

“No, I don’t know. It’s a long time ago, and what it looked like before becoming a Demon…”

“Then what about this?”

The CCTV footage went a little faster.

Abyssinian subway. Monsters blocked the front of the man who was staggering between them.

the next moment.

“Well…….”

The monsters in front of them were shattered.

It was hard to recognize from the quality of CCTV, but it looked like a man had taken care of it at once.

Park Si-jun widened his eyes. It was seen that the man’s appearance had changed. Different from the human a while ago.

“…Main.”

In the form of a blurry monster.

Similar to humans, but different. And the appearance was somehow familiar to Park Si-joon.

“It’s him.”

Park Si-jun clenched his teeth.

It was difficult to recognize the shape because of the picture quality. Still, the horns were visible above the demon’s head.

A huge horn that protruded diagonally to the right.

“I’ve seen that horn… I’ve seen it.”

The vague memories came back to me.

Beyond the retina, the scenery of that day appeared dimly. And those horns.

But something was strange.

“Why was this in the association?”

The CCTV footage was from the association in Seoul. It was also hidden deep as if someone had hidden it.

That was even weirder.

“I don’t know. Well, it’s not unusual for the Association to keep information about Magicians, so if you think about it, it’s not very strange.”

Isaac shook the glass.

“Or, yes. How about changing your mind?”

“You want to change your mind?”

he grinned

“The purpose of hiding this. If you think about it normally, you would have hidden it so that other people wouldn’t see it.”

“I would. But…”

“Then it’s kind of weird. I’d rather take it out and dispose of it.”

Yes.

Rather than hiding it in the basement of the association, it is less risky to destroy it.

There will be nothing to be caught up on.

“But it’s hidden. To me, it looks like it’s hidden from those trying to get rid of it.”

“That’s an interesting hypothesis.”

But it was convincing.(Read more @ wuxiax.com)

Park Si-jun thought slowly.

“Hmm, usually the association keeps information about mine. But someone tried to delete some information from it.”

And since I didn’t want to get rid of this video, someone hid it and kept it until now.

“Who was trying to erase the information?”

“High-ranking members of the Association. A person with a position with access to information…. This is a very small number.”

Isaac laughed.

“The association president, master level players, some directors.”

“Your list is narrowed.”

Among them, there is one or many collaborators. He said the Society was a more corrupt place than he thought.

‘What’s left is how to find them… … ‘

That was a matter to discuss with Seohyun Lee.

“So, do you have any additional information about this mine? Where did it appear after this?”

“Sorry, not at all.”

Isaac shook his head.

“If there is only one piece of information circulating like a rumor… Do you know that the Villain Alliance and Jormungand waged a war in the past?”

“I’ve heard a little bit.”

“It was then that a strange-looking mine appeared. She had very impressive horns.”

Park Si-jun engraved the information Isaac gave him.

‘Something slowly… … ‘

There seemed to be a direction.

* * *

Park Si-jun went down to the basement with Isaac.

A maze guarded by all kinds of traps and machines. The two passed through the maze and entered the innermost part.

“As the owner, I installed the device so that I could just pass by. Without it, I wouldn’t have been able to come.”

There was a sword inside.

A sword in a colorful scabbard. A divine light could be seen flowing through them.

“Why did you hide that it was a relic?”

“Anyway, everyone who wanted to buy knew it. The problem was that there were impure molecules among them.”

I was going to use the auction to start a competition between them, but something unexpected happened.

Isaac replied that way.

‘I don’t know if it’s true or not.’

Park Si-jun slowly reached out his hand.

I could feel the monster of Tomdook moving inside.

And he’s very happy about it.

‘Now this is… It’s mine.’

His hand gripped the holy sword tightly.

At the same time, a strong light exploded around the holy sword.
