Episode 679. The Returner Medrey (1)
Returnee Medray.
The dozens of returnees that exist in the Tower of Trials possessed incredible rarity in and of themselves, but among them, Medrey possessed special properties that were different from the other returnees.
[Magic and magical power are connected!]
With the item activated, a means to summon the returnee who had been shrouded in mystery has been provided.
Woohoo!
A ray of light poured down, more dazzling than any other light.
Jinhyuk stared into space with slightly anxious eyes.
It is possible to summon the returnee Medrey, but if you feel against the semi-forcible summoning, there will be a strong backlash.
Fortunately.
Medrey, who rarely shows up, seems to be interested in this matter.
A gate made of gentle magic has been completed.
[Returnee ‘Medrey’ answers the call!]
Absolute good.
A returnee who does not succumb to any temptation and sticks solely to his own beliefs has emerged.
Pachichik!
As the thick smoke cleared, its shape slowly came into view.
And its first appearance was….
Grand.
There was no other way to express it than that.
A muscular body measuring about 2m.
The mysterious appearance that seemed to be filled with nature itself gave off a sense of leisure and elegance at the same time.
Is this the most powerful druid in the Tower of Trials?
The ‘Eyes of Gluttony’ quickly examined Medrey.
Tiring!
[Medrey]
Level: 301
Occupation: Druid
Unique Window: Rainbow Bridge
Unique Ability: Call of Nature
Characteristics: Seekers of absolute goodness that are in harmony with all things. Beloved by gods and spirits, Druids prefer to maintain balance by staying one step behind rather than taking the lead.
Copy Conditions: Medrey is a person who pursues absolute good. In order to copy such abilities of Medrey, you must meet the standard of ‘goodness’ that he has set. Only when your moral and altruistic heart reaches the heavens will you be able to impress Medrey. Depending on the degree, the uniqueness window, unique ability, and skills that can be copied will differ.
f*ck.
Jinhyuk’s face crumpled as he read the copy conditions.
I’ve accomplished a variety of ridiculous and forced conditions while climbing the Tower of Trials so far, but if I had to pick the most difficult one, this would be it.
Not any other guy.
To meet the standards of goodness that Medrey pursues.
It’s no different from asking Stephen Hawking to discuss quantum mechanics.
Jinhyuk pressed his throbbing temples.
It feels like there are a lot of mountains to climb from the start.
Still, I have no choice but to get through it somehow.
“Is it you who called me?”
Medrey looked at Jinhyuk.
From now on, it’s important.
Jinhyuk nodded with the kindest smile possible.
“Yes. At a time when the canyon where fairies and spirits live in peace is being defiled by intruders, I thought that you, who value harmony more than anyone else, would be able to help us.”
“… … .”
At Jinhyeok’s words, Medrey looked around.
Kukukukuku!
The sky is darkened and the returnees are filled with greed.
The magical realm, with its primordial purple energy, seemed to be heralding the end of a level.
“Something was definitely wrong. I had a feeling something unusual was going to happen when all the returnees gathered in one place…”
Looking at you talking like that, does that mean there’s no bounty event for Medrey?
It could be that it was ruled out from the beginning because there was no need to accept it anyway.
Or even if they came, they just weren’t interested.
Anyway, looking at the atmosphere, it was likely that Medrey would join to balance things out.
however.
Medrey, who I thought would naturally help, surprisingly had a hard time making a decision.
Obviously, it’s clear which side is wrong, so what is the reason?
The reason was immediately revealed.
That’s right, it was himself.
Medrey was in a state of serious distress because of the absolute evil that was difficult to see as good in many ways.
The ‘Eye of Harmony’, the purest eye in the Tower of Trials, had already seen through Jinhyeok’s true nature.
And Jinhyuk also knew how Medley thought of him through his ‘Eyes of Gluttony’.
[If we were to quantify malice, the malice of the returnees gathered there would be over 1,000,000. But why is it that the one speaking in front of me is the only one with a similar amount of malice?]
Medrey’s expression grew even more confused.
If it weren’t for the protection I received from the spirit kings, I might have attacked Jinhyeok first, thinking he was my biggest enemy.
‘x amount.’

Jinhyuk cursed inwardly.
I feel like I’ve lived a decent life, so I can’t understand why I’m always treated like this. I may not be very merciful to my enemies, but I’ve always been warm to my allies.
Jinhyeok, who was trying hard to pull himself together, gestured to Undine, who was nearby.
And he held her tightly in his arms and handed her a few magic stones that he had kept in his pocket.
“Don’t push yourself too hard and take some rest. And thank you for always being with me.”
“Is the owner crazy?”
“… … .”
For a moment, my sense of reason almost snapped.
Fortunately, Undine, who had seen Jinhyeok’s distorted face before, came to her senses.
“Hehehe. Me too, Master. I love you!”
Even if it’s a false play.
It’s better than nothing.
Because I had to do anything to raise Medley’s favor even a little.
“Ugh… .”
Medrey looked back and forth between the spirits and Jinhyeok, lost in deep thought.

Meanwhile.
There was also great unrest among the returnees who witnessed the appearance of Medrej.
“Why did the author come here…?”
“Weren’t you interested in things like bounties?”
“Or maybe, you’re trying to stop us…?”
Feelings of doubt and confusion spread with increasing intensity.
It had to be that way.
Not only did the rare Medley come here, but he also tried to cross over to the other side. Everyone’s nerves naturally became tense as the worst troublemaker appeared, trying to ruin the victory that was already under their control.
“Medrey! This is a fight you don’t need to get involved in. Get out!”
Clemence raised his voice.
It was absolutely necessary to win this fight, if only to avoid losing my own self.
“Koooooo!”
“Goooooo!”
The undead soldiers reacted to Clement’s emotional changes.
The undead mixed with distorted black sheep and goats were already close to the 50th floor servant horse.
“It’s funny. Really.”
Only Angelis showed interest and clapped for the card Jinhyuk pulled out.
“What’s so great about it? If that troublemaker joins us, we’re in big trouble!”
“Well, it might get tricky.”
Medley’s unique ability, ‘Rainbow Bridge’, is the ability to put ‘color’ into things. If he gains support from the world he returned to, this fight will no longer be a battle, but a large-scale war.
Besides that, there were so many abilities that had not yet been discovered that I didn’t know what variables to create.
but.
“At least one returnee passed.”
All the returnees gathered here are also heroes who conquered an impregnable world.
You can’t go against the trend just because one special person becomes the enemy.
The biggest reason was that I wanted to experience how thrilling and exciting it would be to turn Medley into an enemy.
“Crush it all.”
Without listening to anyone’s opinion, Angelis ordered a preemptive strike.
Like it or not.
From this first step, the piano will be distinguished.
[Angelis activates the special skill ‘Single Shot’!]
Woohoo!
The main cannons that had been gathering energy on the planets’ surfaces blinked all at once.
Unlike the ones previously carried by ships, it was a main gun for anti-ship warfare with a diameter of several tens of meters.
Kwakwakwakwakwakwakwakwa!
A red beam of light crossed the atmosphere.
It seemed as if it would completely obliterate Jinhyeok and Medley, evaporating everything it touched.
however.
The light that had been running without stopping finally disappeared at some point.
[Medrey summons the ‘Blue Moth’!]
Huge wings dyed blue.
“Cheese.”
The layered waves, along with the peculiar resonance, canceled out the main gun.
A blue moth soared high into the air, scattering dust.
[The energy of harmony seeps into those who are hurt.]
Woohoo!
The wounds of the injured spirits and fairies healed quickly.
Greenery began to sprout along the devastated canyon, and new colors began to bloom to counter the cursed atmosphere.
“Is that the famous colored beast? But I’m not done yet.”
[Angelis activates ‘God’s Hammer’!]
A new weapon made of tungsten was dropped from a satellite.
Kukukukung!
This time, the attack was not aimed at Jinhyeok or Medley, but at the gathered spirits and fairies.
A gravity-defying projectile reaches the ground in the blink of an eye.
“Mosquitoes!”
The sweet potato spread its wings.
“Miyo!”
“Where!”
Fried and Malrang Black Crane also gathered their magical power and prepared to unleash their most powerful attacks towards the sky.
‘Hmm.’
Jinhyuk scratched his chin.
It’s unfortunate, but it would be a bit difficult if even this were to be completely canceled out.
Because a certain degree of sacrifice was necessary for dramatic production.
‘I need to create a situation that seems a little more plausible since Medley doesn’t fully trust me yet.’
Jinhyeok cut off the magical power that was being supplied to everyone at once. As if that wasn’t enough, he absorbed the target’s magical power instead.
of course.
For the ancient species and divine beasts who were preparing their skills to counteract this, it would be a serious blow to their heads.
Kwakwakwakwakwakwang!
“Mosquitoes!”
“Miyooooo!”
“Kwaaah!”
Sweet potatoes, fried chicken, and soft black-faced spoonbills were all engulfed in flames.
“Guys!”
Jinhyuk screamed at the top of his lungs.
I ran towards the charcoal lumps that were crisp on the outside and soft on the inside and collapsed on the spot.
Hot tears flowing.
“How can humans do such things! What crime have they committed!”
I didn’t know what to do in front of the children who were spewing black smoke from their mouths like a mother who had lost her child.
“It’s still hard to judge what’s right and what’s wrong, but I can see that your hostility has crossed the line. Still, aren’t you ashamed of those who were once revered as heroes!?”
Medrey scolded the returnees.
“We’re being too much. Haven’t you seen the bounty event? If you just take out those guys, they’ll grant you a wish. Stop being so pretentious and tell me. I bet you have at least one wish you want to grant, too.”
“I have a wish….”
Medrey silently pondered Clemence’s words.
“Of course… I have it too.”
“See! It’s not too late, so come with us and deal with those guys! Whatever your wish, the system will grant it!”
“… … But I don’t want to achieve it by sacrificing someone like this.”
Finally, Medrey made his decision.
Jinhyeok sheds tears after losing his precious comrades. The returnees are willing to trample on anything for their own benefit.
It has been decided which of the two it will be installed on.
