Episode 661. The ownerless shadow sapling (2)
In the numerous mines within the great canyon, there is a rare chance of mining gems. Among them, there will certainly be gems that can turn into light fragments with an extremely low chance of being hidden.
“We must secure it with our own hands!”
“Let’s show the power of the spirits!”
“Let’s go, let’s go!”
The spirits moved with pride to win the bet.
And of course, the members of the old corporation who got caught up in the bet out of nowhere also rushed into different mines.
Woohoo!
Several luminous stones illuminated the path along the mine.
In the short time left, everyone is a competitor and an enemy in the search for something that can become a shard of light.
This was true not only for the spirits, but also for the members of the Goinmul Corporation.
“This time, I will definitely win.”
Cheon Yoo-seong clenched his fist.
I know that Jinhyuk uses various abilities.
However, if you limit your abilities and fight with only pure swordsmanship… .
… … It is quite possible.
Unlike Jinhyeok, who pursued various fighting styles, he came to this place only with swordsmanship. He had no doubt that one ability that had been trained to the limit would be able to surpass the all-rounder.
Right then.
“Koooo!”
“Keeee!”
A beast’s howl echoed from down the passage.
A hideous looking creature. A 2m tall insect-like monster that sprays green fluid, the ‘Ground Puppies’.
A large number of ground puppies ran madly to devour the prey, bone and all.
“Don’t… disturb!”
Cheon Yoo-seong activated ‘Song of the Sword’.
The bodies of the puppies that had been rushing towards me were torn into dozens of pieces as a terrifying surge of energy rose up.
The only thought is to obtain the right to make a wish.
Cheon Yoo-seong’s eyes were filled with greed.
The rest of the members also pulled out all the strength they had for their own reasons.
Pufufufu!
Kwaaang!
Behemoth swung his greatsword and headed deep into another mine.
“I’m running away. I’m going to… I’m going to escape from this f*cking company!”
A disaster that leads to the apocalypse.
He is the one who should be feared by all people just by his existence. However, at some point, he ended up being reduced to a reptile that is helpless against a single human.
This is unacceptable.
This time, we must definitely escape this miserable reality and regain our former glory.
“The right to make a wish! The right to make a wish with the contractor! All of it… is mine!”
“The probability of finding a gem is about 1.253%, right?”
Ellis and Frey each took charge of a mine they thought had a high probability of finding and headed straight for the deepest part.
finally….
Sweet potato fries, T-bone, Havelian, Haitai, and finally, Malrang Black Crane all gathered in one place.
“Mosquito King!”
“Mosquito…!”
“We’ll only trust the captain! When it comes to magic stones and jewels, the captain’s sense of smell is incredible!”
“Mosquito, mosquito!”
Also known as the ‘Summoner League’.
What they wanted wasn’t something grand like resignation or anything like that.
A better life as a slave.
If only the rights of summoned beings, who eat well, sleep in a warm place, and live like summoned beings, were guaranteed, then that would be enough.
Soon, Goguma sniffed and pointed to one wall of the mine. Then, the rest of the spirits began to dig down into the ground in a hurry.
Meanwhile.
Jinhyeok, who proposed the bet, was not actually in the mine.
It was late at night, when everyone was sweating profusely in the mines and working hard at mining, that I quietly found someone’s house.
‘I guess everyone is asleep.’
It had been such an eventful day that everyone must have accumulated considerable fatigue. Everyone except those directly involved in the mining fell into a deep sleep.
Jinhyuk went down the stairs to the basement while hiding his presence as much as possible.
And flinched.
As soon as he sensed the subtle flow of magical power, his body stopped. As expected, a fairly sophisticated security spell was cast.
It’s a double or triple magic that’s usually hard to notice.
but.
[The 8-star barrier ‘Magic Breaking’ is activated!]
It’s not even the spirit king, it’s just some magic cast by spirit beasts.
Multiple security breaches were achieved with a simple gesture.
Crunch!
As we cleared the passage blocked by vines, a space filled with numerous weapons and materials appeared.
These are the holy relics that the spirits have collected over thousands of years.
“Whew. You really have collected a lot.”

Like the daggers and bows made from the claws of the Pentagris in the past, there were quite a few items made from materials taken from the bodies of divine or phantom beasts.
… … It’s a pity.
How can you just keep piling up these precious things like this?
Rather than letting it rot away for eternity without an owner, it would be much better to give it to someone who can use it.
If only for the sake of these children.
“Do you think the same as me?”
Jinhyuk carefully lifted up various weapons and relics.
Then he made a startled expression as if he had heard a voice.
“What? You think so too? I can’t help it. I’m busy because of the bet, but I can’t leave you guys like this.”
Jinhyeok selected the most necessary relics from among the many stored in the warehouse and stored them in the subspace.
Especially, carefully focusing on the materials needed to strengthen the First Blade.
How much time has passed like that?
After a long shopping spree, Jinhyuk came out of the warehouse and moved to another location. It was to obtain materials that could create the perfect ‘Shard of Light’.
‘I can’t lose either.’
I have been studying what is the most beautiful and pure light in the tower for a long time.
‘There were times when I thought the light of the sun was the best. There were times when I thought the light of the moon was perfect.’
Of course, that’s not wrong.
Because they all had their own beauty and purity.
but.
The raw material that could become a real fragment of light was not like that.
Not the purity that comes from nature… but when it is backed up by overwhelming madness, only then can you finally obtain a fragment of perfect meaning.
Jinhyuk slowly gathered light from something inside the house.
⁕ ⁕ ⁕
[Time is up.]
A large number of spirits gathered in a wide open space, along with a status window indicating that the bet was complete.
“Okay. This will do. I’m sure.”
“Oh dear, is that all you have? What I found is much prettier and bigger.”
“Just because something is big doesn’t mean it’s good. I used the sapphire that has been passed down through generations to our water clan as a medium!”
“Huh! It has to be at least as good as a diamond, the king of jewels.”
“By the way, I heard someone broke into the elder’s house yesterday. They stole treasures and all, and there was chaos trying to find the culprit.”
“Who would do that without fear?”
There were a few random conversations that interjected, but it wasn’t anything to worry about.
Because the important thing right now was to obtain the qualifications of a fragment.
Those gathered in the open space proudly took out the jewels they had brought. Each one of them was emitting a colorful light, reflecting the light of the sun or moon, divine power, or nature.
“Everyone prepared with their lives at stake.”
Jinhyuk nodded while looking at several jewels.
I have prepared only those that are definitely worthy of being the first Holy Relic.
This may be because of the spirit tribe’s unique sense of purpose in saving the King of Light and their pride in not being able to defeat outsiders.
“Even so, it is nothing compared to what you have.”
Ellis confidently took out a bright red ruby.
The ore, made by extracting his own blood, was literally dyed blood red.
This guy is not in his right mind. I gave him a task called ‘Fragment of Light’, which is full of light characteristics to anyone who hears it, and he brought something like that.
It seemed like it had no chance of being adopted unless you summoned a Dixblood.
“Huh! Accurately grasping the questioner’s intentions. There are many who have missed that essence.”
A gentle smile spread across Cheon Yu-seong’s lips.
Indeed, a medical student at a Korean university.
As expected from a monster who has risen to the top of the infamous college entrance exam hell, his remarks were also harsh.
however.
The ring-sized gem that I took out from my bosom was somehow strange.
… … It’s beautiful, but I’m reluctant to go near it.
I wonder if he’s a guy whose brain is also made of swords. He sliced the jewels with his sword like a knife.
If there is a god of light, wouldn’t he have swallowed dry saliva at that bloody craftsmanship?
The jewel contained not only light, but also life.
“The odds of winning are 50%, right? Either that or it doesn’t work out.”
Frey took out an unidentified ore.
It seemed like it was his own work, as he was holding it so dearly. Unlike his usual cool-headed and clear-headed approach to deriving results, this time he was even doing a meta-calculation of Bitcoin.
“Hahahaha! You all are showing off by taking out something as small as a jewel. What is on this body is the true meaning of a shard of light!”
Behemoth burst into flames and threw something to the ground.
Kwaaaaang!
A cloud of dust rose up.
A jewel bigger than my body.
It was obviously impossible to ask Apocalypse, who only knew how to destroy, to carry out a proper task.
He can’t even tell the difference between a ‘fragment’ and a ‘lump’, so what kind of confidence does he have?
Lastly… Sweet Potato and Spirit Special Forces… .
Let’s not talk.
“No, Captain! If you eat all that, how are we going to win!”
“Eww! Who gave the role of leader to a hungry lizard?”
“It is a painful mistake for this noble body to overlook this point.”
“Miyooooo!”
It had already been a long time since it had all entered Goguma’s stomach. Judging from the fact that he was drooling in front of the few jewels left, the jewels prepared in a few minutes would have been completely gone before the ritual began.
While everyone was claiming it was theirs, a ceremony was held to select a fragment of light.
Woohoo!
A mysterious light fell.
The selection of fragments always ended in failure. But this time, it was different.
The jewel that one person was holding began to emit a dazzling light.
which….
“Hey, I got it. Sorry.”
It was Jinhyuk who was scratching his head.
“Why did it become you!”
“Oh, that’s ridiculous!”
“You must have done something. Tell me right now how you got that jewel!”
There was chaos among the spirits.
Since they succeeded in one go where they had failed repeatedly, it was only natural that questions would arise.
[Video played 12 hours ago.]
The screen showed Jinhyuk hiding in someone’s bedroom on a dark night.
Jinhyuk entered the bedroom quietly and took out the jewel.
Knock knock! Knock knock!
The starlight was reflected directly through the elder’s bald head, who was snoring like crazy, and was sucked into the transparent jewel.
As the 100% pure brilliance, without a single impurity, gathered together, an indescribable light was condensed into a single point.
“I don’t know who built the Tower of Trials, but it really is a mess.”
A unique disposition that cannot be compared to that of operators.
If you want to fit in with his nature, you have to become crazy to match his personality.
Just like right now.
[The ‘Fragment of Light’ has been completed!]
An evil smile appeared on Jinhyuk’s face.
With this, Cheon Yoo Sung and Ellis, as well as the elders and the rest of the spirits, have each obtained one wish.
This is the moment when countless slaves in the canyon were born.
“Eeeeek! Hey, wait, stop for a minute!”
The elder rose from his seat.
“If you’re the one who broke into my bedroom, doesn’t that mean you’re the one who robbed the treasure vault in the basement?”
Hoo.
It’s a perfectly reasonable inference.
but.
“Oh, I’m really sorry about that. But what’s already happened can’t be helped, right?”
“You call that a lie! You dared to tamper with the reports of the great spirits. I will never let this go. The curse of the valley will follow you!”
Wow, that’s scary.
I’m so scared that I think I should change my panties.
“Hmm. Even for me, the Curse of the Canyon is a little scary. In that sense, I will use my wish right away. My wish is forgiveness. Please apply it retroactively and cleanly wash away the fact that I stole.”
To make a sin that has been committed not happen.
It’s time to get your fair share of the bet.
“… … Oh, oh my… . Okay, okay. So, what do you want?”
The elder opened his mouth like a goldfish.
Fantasy, games,
