– Volume 27, Episode 14
Episode 658
I didn’t know you could get down on your knees.
And looking at his face, which is pale even though he isn’t injured… … it seems like it’s a rather urgent situation.
“Let’s go together. I’ll listen to what’s inside as we go.”
“Thank you thank you!”
I entered the fog with my group.
It might be risky, but Yujun was confident he could handle anything.
I set up a moving barrier and even created a shield inside it.
If anything, I was even thinking of creating a sphere of the source of darkness.
“Do you know about this fog?”
“It probably has something to do with me. I’m not sure though.”
“With you?”
Yujun scanned the entire room.
I didn’t feel any special energy coming from this man’s body.
It’s not that strong.
By his standards, he could be considered weak.
“It’s not necessarily power, but rather a side effect of the ability?”
“I didn’t create it, but there’s a good chance that I’m the cause.”
“item?”
“No. I have a child. He’s not an adopted child… …but I brought him home because the situation was dire and I wanted to help a lost child from the forest.”
“Then there must have been a problem with that tribe.”
“… … That’s right. I can’t believe it, but that kid seems to be using his power unconsciously.”
“What do you mean by power is this foggy thing?”
Goban nodded heavily.
That moment.
A heavy hammer flew out of the smoky fog that made it difficult to see even an inch ahead.
Kaaaaang!
The hammer was blocked by the movement barrier I had created earlier.
“……I’m serious?”
The barrier shook violently once.
It’s strange that it took such a blow from a mere hammer when it wasn’t even a roughly made barrier.
I could not help but think that the power of the hammer was beyond imagination.
“What is that?”
“That child has Sepia’s power.”
“Does he have multiple abilities? I heard he did the fog too.”
“I don’t know about that, Sephi.
“Since the baby started going wild, these strange things have been happening.”
“You said you first met in the forest? What was it like then? Did it feel like you were hiding your power?”
“I didn’t get that feeling at all.”
“Do you know the level?”
“No. I’ve never even had a party with that kid… … ”
“huh.”
If you listen to the story, it may seem like Goban was being reckless, but that was absolutely not the case.
Why would anyone suspect something suspicious about a small, delicate creature?
In the moving barrier, not only hammers but also all kinds of weapons flew and collided.
The weapon that hit the barrier was instantly shattered and turned to dust, but the shock itself transmitted to the barrier was terrifying.
Yoo-Jun frowned and stood there, repairing the damaged moving barrier.
“It’s probably the weapon of the players who entered the fog.”
“That’s right. The quality of each item is different.”
“… … Have you seen the quality in the meantime?”
“That’s Yujun’s specialty.”
Manuela raised her head with pride.
“How much further do I have to go in?”
“I don’t know about that. It took me a long time to run to get to you… …
“Then I guess we’ll have to move faster.”
As you increase your speed, the magical power that enters the moving barrier increases exponentially, but Yoo-Jun’s magical power is not that strong.
Did not budge.
“Can you run?”
“I’m not that weak.”
“I heard you kept running earlier.”
“I walked a little and it was fully charged.”
Goban, who answered like that, had a very relieved expression on his face for some reason.
As time passed, Goban’s mind did not become stable.
It was during this critical situation that I happened to meet Shin Yu-jun.
And Shin Yu-jun, contrary to rumors
I was just thankful that he wasn’t malicious.
Who would have thought that the player known as the strongest in the Infinite Tower would appear right before our eyes?

I could be confident that the odds of being struck by lightning would be significantly lower than that.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
The players’ weapons stopped flying and explosions began to occur, as if they had run out of weapons.
It was better when the weapons were flying.
The advance speed of Yujun and his group was noticeably slowed by the explosion that shook the barrier.
“Everyone stop.”
Yujun tried using the magic of strengthening space control in place.
Because of the fog, I couldn’t see what was nearby, so I thought I would just take ownership of the space.
… … But things didn’t work out as planned.
The attempt to take over the space itself was aborted, as the power of this fog was stronger than that of the reinforced space, or if this fog had some special power.
‘Is the power of the system involved?’
The fact that his power to control the reinforced space has been blocked means that his magical power is on par with it, or at least two levels below it.
Goban was also quite surprised.
The fact that the free food pantry work was Sophia’s doing.
I realized it late today.
The whole story was like this.
One day, she started going out more frequently.
And coincidentally, from that time on, many strange things started to happen in the city.
It was early this morning that I followed her.
She had fun running around with a girl who was a little taller than her.
It would have been nice if it had ended there, but it was around sunset.
Sepia suddenly went wild.
Without any warning.
The girl next to me said that
Not because I was used to it, but because I was standing there frozen in place.
‘Wasn’t it a pack?’
That was the moment.
Sepia seemed to have forcibly broken down the door of a house that was locked, and the energy emanating from her body destroyed everything inside.
The problem here is that the house wasn’t empty.
Whether Sepia intended it or not, she killed all three family members inside at once.
Goban was surprised and ran to her.
At that moment, fog spread everywhere.
The last thing he saw was Sepia’s energy flowing into other houses.
Goban decided that he could not stop this situation on his own, so he ran to the most crowded festival site to ask for assistance.
And now I’m standing next to the famous Shin Yoo-jun.
Goban felt guilty because it seemed like all of this was his fault.
‘If this player can’t stop it… … No one can stop Sepia.’
When that situation came up, I had no choice but to give up.
Yujun asked Goban.
“Are we going in the right direction?”
“That’s right. I was able to get out of the fog just by running straight.”
The screams of the players were no longer heard.
Unless Sepia was killed or subdued, it would be correct to assume that they were all dead.
‘Could this also be the work of the devil?’
The timing was perfect.
It is said that this strange thing happened nearby not long after the death of the twelve apostles of the demon.
It was difficult to see it as just a coincidence.
Yujun and his group ignored the explosion and ran.
Instead, he created a giant sphere of dark source.
It was a technique I learned through sparring with Masare, but this was the first time I had created such a large sphere.
Fortunately, no large crowds came.
Above all, the sphere was incomparably stronger than shields or barriers.
The explosions occurring here and there did not damage the sphere.
He started running like that and soon Yujun sensed one, no, two movements.
But one sound was familiar.
He kept running, tilting his head.
Now that I had the hang of it, I couldn’t miss this opportunity.
When the Suin tribe came into view, Yujun’s eyes became as big as lanterns.
Masare was standing next to the Suin tribe.
There were many corpses of players around.
“Masare, why are you coming out from there?”
She turned her head when she heard her name, but there was no further reaction.
It wasn’t just that there were no answers or reactions.
Masare’s eyes were unfocused.
“Yujun, why is Masare there?”
“He has finally revealed his true colors.”
“Hey, no way… … ”
“I think the new friend Masare is making is the same Suin tribe that Govan mentioned. He’s Govan, right?”
“Yes. I saw them walking together today… … When Sepia went berserk, the child next to her didn’t do anything.”
“Are you saying this has nothing to do with it?”
“I don’t know the details. I just saw it for the first time today… … ”
Yujun let out a deep sigh.
I thought she had a new friend and that he might be out of his mind too.
‘How can such a prediction not be wrong?’
I’m in trouble.
Although Masare doesn’t seem like the mastermind, if she were being held hostage, Yujun wouldn’t be able to attack her rashly.
The group was also aware of that point.
“What should I do? Masare seems to be in danger.”
“It’s a dangerous situation, just like Joshua said, so we have to make a decision here, Shin Yu-jun.”
Yujun nodded.
“Masare will understand our decision. We will fight. The Masare I know had a spirit of sacrifice. He even said that he would gladly die for us.”
Of course she never said anything like that.
Although he said something that would have made Masare feel wronged if she heard it, she still hadn’t come to her senses.
Masare is the source of darkness.
It didn’t seem like throwing healing would bring it back to normal.
If anything, it got worse.
“Don’t come near me!”
Sepia cried out.
It was said to Goban, not Yoojun.
“Sepia. Why on earth are you doing that?”
“I don’t know… … but, if you come near me, you’ll get hurt! Just go far away. Please.”
“Who made you like this? Masin?”
Sepia was confused by Yujun’s question.
“Drank… …what is that?”
“Did you meet anyone else in the forest besides Goban?”
“There is… …but I don’t remember who it is.”
As I had guessed, there seemed to be a third dark force.
It could be that the fog spread, or that it killed players, or that it was a side effect of the ability.
“What about Masare next to you? He’s your friend. Why did you make him like that?”
“……yes?”
“Aren’t you friends?”
“Ah. Yes, that’s my friend. Yes, that’s right. Hehe.”
“Smile?”
“Huh? You can’t laugh?”
“What are you doing now?
Are you aware that you are losing?
“Did I do something wrong? Dad. Was it really my fault?”
Sepia looked at Goban.
“… … Can’t you just return to your original form right now?”
She had a hideous appearance, as if a demon had possessed her.
Its dark wings were poking out of its back, and its eyes were tinted black.
There was also a strange tattoo on his face.
“I look weird… … ?”
“Yeah. You look noticeably different than you did this morning.”
“What if this is my true self?”
“You hate me now?”
“If it doesn’t go back to the way it was, then that might be possible.”
“How do I get back?”
At that moment, Sepia’s body began to tremble.
His arms and neck twisted bizarrely, making a crunching sound.
Rather than returning to its original form, it seems to be moving further and further away.
“Goban. If possible, it would be better to subdue him, but if that is difficult, I will kill him. Is that okay? No, don’t answer. Even if it is not okay, I will take care of it.”
“I’ll leave it up to you to decide.”
It seemed like Sepia was almost evolving, but I had no intention of just sitting back and watching.
Whether it’s transformation or evolution, isn’t that the weakest point?
Yujun charged his sword with ‘destruction’ and kicked the ground.
My inventory is weird
