Chapter 16. Kairin’s Treasure (2)
5.
Maple World has become hell since monsters burst out of the Mystic Gate.
And that hell gave birth to a new hero.
The world referred to the seven heroes at the top as the seven stars.
Golden Eye Miner, Aran’s disciple Divo, Hero Tracker Pir, Heartbreaker Baekwol, Magic Bullet’s Archer Max, Divine Archer Nael, and Brain Lord Leek.
He was a great man who defied comparison with any other adventurer.
Of course, El Palm knew their performance better than anyone else.
My connection with them was also deep.
The only one who remembered their end, not in depth, was the last adventurer, El Palm.
‘Brainwash.’
Among them, the one who had the deepest connection with El Palm was none other than Brain Leak.
There were two reasons.
‘Follower of the Black Wizard.’
One was that he was a follower of a black magician whose identity was hidden.
It was on the day of the Suicide Squad, when 100,000 adventurers gathered to fight against the followers of the Black Mage, that the brainwashing Leak revealed his true identity.
‘100,000 people were massacred because of him.’
The adventurers who were there that day were massacred.
‘Except me.’
Only one person survived, El Palm.
Of course, it wasn’t because of my skills that I survived.
Instead, El Palm came close to death.
Brain Leak, he had grabbed El Palm’s neck with his right hand.
I just used lightning magic, Chain Lightning.
It was more than enough firepower to kill El Palm, who was a magic adventurer with only 4 circles at the time.
‘If I hadn’t had the talent of an All-Master, if I hadn’t had resistance to lightning magic, I would have died there.’
However, Brain Leek, who did not know that El Palm had the talent of an All-Master, thought that El Palm was dead and left.
So I survived.
Thanks to that, I was able to remember.
‘He was wearing this ring.’
The brainwashed Leak clutched his own neck, the ring on his finger.
Later, I also found out the identity of the ring.
‘The ring of Zeus.’
That he has the ability to control all lightning attribute magic.
That was a huge deal.
First of all, lightning attribute magic was very powerful, but conversely, it was impossible to handle.
Lightning was arbitrary in the first place.
And it was so fast.
That’s why it’s often said.
The lightning attribute wizard is a bomb that does not discriminate between enemies and allies.
A typical example was the Chain Lightning spell. This spell, which moved from target to target in a chain and inflicted damage, had no distinction between enemies and allies. This meant that even if the first target was an enemy, the next target could be an ally.
It was out of control.
El Palm, with his telekinetic abilities, was nearly impossible to control except lightning magic.
But can you control it?
‘The brainwashed one with this thing showed incredible abilities.’
How terrifying it is, Brain Leak showed.
A fierce battlefield, where he freely manipulated lightning magic and burned everyone.
Brainwash! A slaughter worthy of its name!
So the question was.
‘The ring of Zeus is here… … .’
The ring of Zeus, which was an item of the brainwashing, and the item of the follower of the black magician, is on Kairin’s treasure island?
It was one of two things.
One is that the brainwashing agent entered Kairin’s treasure island.
‘So there’s a traitor among the treasure keepers of Treasure Island.’
Another one is that a follower of the Black Wizard delivered this ring of Zeus to the Brain Emperor.
El Palm naturally saw the latter as a possibility.
‘Dangerous.’
This means that there is a high possibility that the followers of the Black Wizard are interested in or aware of the Ring of Zeus.
This meant that if El Palm were to acquire the Ring of Zeus, he would be pursued by the followers of the Black Wizard.
‘That’s interesting.’
Of course, there was no reason for El Palm to refuse the ring of Zeus.
That’s why El Palm picked up Zeus’ ring without hesitation.
At that moment Valerie said:
“The choice is made, now it’s time to go back.”
6.
The Nautilus.
It was full of adventurers and pirates from all over Maple World.

Naturally, stories from all over Maple World gathered on the Nautilus.
There was always a new story floating around, so some stories were buried without even becoming gossip.
But now, there was only one topic of conversation going around on the Nautilus.
“You said Golden Eye raided Eagle Eye’s tomb?”
This is the story about Golden Eye.
It was natural.
“We finally conquered that place.”
“What on earth was in there?”
“What about Eagle Eye’s legacy? There must have been something there.”
The Mystic Gate, which had been inaccessible and had not even touched the bounty page for a year, was now conquered by none other than Golden Eye.
In other words, everyone thought.
“Damn, it’s all about GoldenEye.”
The one that was conquered was Golden Eye.
“We’re the ones who broke it.”
El Palm Party is just a spoonful.
In fact, that was common sense.
Unless El Palm Party said that I conquered it with my own mouth.
Even if I tell you, most people won’t believe me.
“Why did the boss tell me to hide this?”
Even El Palm has issued a gag order on the matter.
Of course, I told you why.
“No matter how much it provokes the Nautilus pirates… … .”
The first reason was the pride of the Nautilus.
The Nautilus would not be in a good mood if it became known that Golden Eye had been helped by nameless men.
Above all, the Nautilus was a pirate ship.
Those who have the fate of having to pay double for anything they have been wronged.
“The leader said, ‘Don’t make unnecessary enemies.’”
The second reason was checks and balances.
As El Palm gains fame, naturally, those who seek to take El Palm’s fame will appear.
In a way, that was the adventurer’s fate.
As your fame grows and you gain more titles, more adventurers will come after you.
“Can’t I get paid too?”
And silence came at a price.
For that reason, neither Kiri nor Ralph had any complaints about El Palm’s choice.
“What are you talking about? An adventurer must gain fame! I’ll speak to the boss!”
The only one left is Devo.
“Let me tell you.”
“Huh? Boss?”
“What do you want?”
“Oh, that’s, well… … I was just saying.”
Of course, Debo never complained to El Palm.
“You did a good job, hehe… … .”
El Palm answered Divo’s appearance like that.
“Exceeded expectations.”
“Exceeded your expectations?”
The rest of them, including Devo, looked surprised at the unexpected answer.
El Palm, who has an indifferent expression on his face even in the most trivial matters and reacts as if it were natural even in the face of incredible results, is expressing that it exceeded expectations?
That means it’s really not an ordinary thing.
“Yeah, better than expected.”
Actually, it wasn’t an ordinary thing.
‘With the Ring of Zeus, you can now use lightning magic as your main magic.’
El Palm has gained the power of the brain.
If those who knew El Palm, the last adventurer before he returned to the past, had known, they would have been terrified.
At the same time, there must have been hope.
El Palm, the hope that he can save the world.
Of course El Palm knew.
‘It’s impossible to hunt the horntail with this alone.’
That was just their hope, El Palm, who had faced Hontail directly, knew that it was still not enough.
‘We need to deal with the top of Kania before the Horntail.’
Above all, what El Palm had to fight right now was not Horntail, but the followers of the Black Mage.
‘You must have assessed my abilities.’
The followers of the Black Mage hiding in the Golden Eye Party must have reported on the abilities of the El Palm Party.
That is, now they know too.
El Palm has incredible abilities using two types of magic: telekinesis and fire arrow.
Of course, we’ll send in stronger adventurers to kill El Palm next time.
‘You must prepare thoroughly.’
Even if Zeus’ ring had been created, it would have been a problem.
El Palm had never used the Ring of Zeus properly before. It meant that he had to gain some experience from now on.
It wasn’t easy in many ways.
It definitely was.
“there.”
One person appeared at the El Palm party that was in such dire straits.
At that moment, the surroundings froze.
“Golden Eye?”
Because the one who appeared was the golden-eyed beauty, Miner.
Knock knock!
As soon as she appeared, she brought a chair and sat down at the table of the El Palm party.
Everyone’s expression hardened at that fact.
Sitting at the table meant one thing in the world of adventurers.
“I want to join the party.”
“Join the party?”
“Yeah, your party.”
The moment those words came out, Debo made a dumbfounded expression.
None other than Golden Eye Miner, Captain Kairin’s disciple, who already leads over a hundred subordinates on his own, is joining the party?
“No, you have to make sense!”
Of course, Devo burst out laughing.
“Huh? Isn’t that right? Kiri, you say something too.”
“I agree.”
“Yeah, you agree? Huh? What did you say?”
But Kiri thought differently.
“A party member with outstanding abilities is joining, there is no reason to refuse.”
She welcomed Miner’s appearance.
“No, that’s true, but… … Hey, Ralph. You say something.”
At the sight of Kiri, Divo turned his gaze to Ralph.
“I disagree.”
“Yes, that’s right. You should oppose it. Ralph, it doesn’t seem reasonable to you, does it?”
“If one more person comes in, my share will be reduced.”
At the moment when Divo looked dumbfounded for a moment at that truly sensible answer, Miner spoke.
“I’m not saying that you can join for free. I’ll pay a membership fee.”
“I agree.”
At that moment Ralph raised his thumb and said,
“My name is Ralph. My position is support. My specialty is hitting monsters with my fists and using healing skills. I will be counting on you in the future.”
At that sight, Divo turned his head towards El Palm.
“Boss, what are you going to do?”
El Palm did not answer that question.
I was worried.
Common sense would suggest that Miner’s entry into the party itself would be a great help in increasing power.
Also, El Palm knew Miner’s abilities better than anyone else.
She would be a huge help in powering up.
The problem was that El Palm wanted more than just a power boost.
Golden Eye joins El Palm Party?
First of all, it would be a huge issue in itself, and as it becomes an issue, it would cause a lot of trouble.
‘When she comes in, the followers of the Black Mage will renew their scales.’
Crucially, from the perspective of the upper ranks of Kania, eliminating the El Palm Party and eliminating the El Palm Party that included Kairin’s disciples were two entirely different things.
Involving Captain Kairin in their work.
It was like trying to catch a rabbit and ending up provoking a tiger.
‘More certain.’
So, when catching a rabbit, you have to move with all your might to not leave even a trace.
‘I’ll send out hunting dogs filled with unique items.’
That was the reason.
“Miner.”
El Palm said to Miner.
“Congratulations on joining.”
Miner smiled at those words.
“You really have an eye for detail.”
Miner then extends his hand.
El Palm said after seeing her hand like that.
“The membership fee is 10 million mesos.”
“what?”
“And the admission fee has not been settled yet. Settle the amount including the admission fee.”
Miner looks dumbfounded at those words.
That was the moment.
“Hey everyone!”
A man came into the tavern they were in and shouted.
“It’s a big deal! It’s a big deal!”
“What’s going on?”
“The son of the Gold Rich died during the Mystic Gate raid! The son of the richest man in Victoria Island died!”
