Chapter 296
An underground gymnasium where the sun does not enter.
A shrieking sound resounded through the fine sand.
The protagonist of the shout is Gwangpungdan. With the exception of Raon and Dorian, the Gwangpungdan swordsmen gathered in one place and were training.
Not much time had passed, and even though all of them had small and large injuries, the momentum generated by Gwangpungdan was different from before.
It wasn’t just that he became stronger, but as if his temperament had changed, he endlessly spewed out sharp and ferocious swordsmanship.
“Twenty minutes break.”
Burren ordered the swordsmen to take a rest after completing the training of the storm.
“Twenty minutes break!”
The Gwangpungdan swordsmen did not sit down even after hearing the order to rest. I started doing personal training with a little distance from other people.
Even during break time, only the sound of swinging swords and stepping on steps could be heard in the gymnasium. The swordsmen’s expressions were also bloody, as if they were facing an enemy in front of them, not training.
Burren opened his sword five times in a row and straightened his back.
‘shit… .’
for a moment. Even if you don’t focus on the sword for a moment, bad thoughts come to mind.
Wouldn’t Raon wear the mask of Eden, or would Dorian become a blood demon and drink blood? Or worse, that maybe things went wrong and they both died.
‘Keep both alive.’
I received so much grace from Raon that I can’t even put it into words. Not only his life, but also his soul was saved, so he wishes he would live even if he died.
‘please.’
As Burren bit his lip and prayed for the safety of the two, Martha approached.
“It’s time.”
“okay.”
I nodded and looked at Martha. pale complexion. She said that in reality she was not in good shape because it was time to treat her wounds, not when she was training.
But the word rest did not come out. She wouldn’t listen, because she couldn’t imagine what it would be like for her to have her comrades kidnapped by enemies.
“Don’t think of me, try that or something.”
As if reading Burren’s thoughts, Martha frowned and pointed to the back. There, Runaan was wielding a sword filled with her coldness, oozing an eerie aura.
“That crazy guy. Until now, I haven’t slept and I’m only swinging my sword. That’s going to really kill me.”
“hmm… .”
Burren looked at Runan and bit his lip. Even though Runan was as seriously injured as Marta, he was training hard enough to approach.
The girl who liked to stare at the sky in a daze disappeared, and a female swordsman full of murder filled the place.
“I can’t stop.”
Burren sighed and shook his head. It wasn’t just Runan and Martha, but the others also swung their swords like crazy, remembering Raon and Dorian.
It was too much to stop them because I knew how they felt.
“set! Gwangpungjin training from now on… .”
profit.
It was time to gather everyone and resume Jinbeop training. The gymnasium door opened softly, and Rimmer entered. His eyes were unusually calm and terribly dry.
“Raon’s location has been identified.”
Rimer’s low voice made the movements of the Gwangpungdan swordsmen stand still. Their weary eyes flashed with the light of hope.
“Are you sure?”
“Where are you?”
“Is Raon alive?”
“Do, how about Dorian… .”
Gwangpungdan swordsmen rushed to Limer and poured out questions that they wanted to ask but could not ask.
“The location is near Cameloon, and I don’t know the exact information yet.”
Rimer shook his head.
“The black market is preparing for a massive dimension shift. It will cross over to Cameloon through the dimensional gateway. There is still time, so if you are missing, tell me now.”
“… … .”
No one answered that question. It meant that we would all go together.
“Contrary to your determination, your eyes are full of tension.”
Rimer smiled lightly as usual.
“Will you guys be of help in the battle? Will Leon be okay? How many enemies will there be and how strong will they be? You will have many thoughts. But if you don’t go today, you’ll regret it for the rest of your life.”
Convinced by those words, the swordsmen clenched their fists until they heard a sound.
“I can’t relieve you of other anxieties, but I can convince you of one thing. It doesn’t matter who the enemy is or how many there are.”
Rimer smiled eeriely as he met the eyes of the feverish Gwangpungdan.
“Because the first person on the continent raised his sword again.”
* * *
Raon licked his lips while looking at the red crocodile mask in his hand.
‘It looks like a kind of crocodile.’
It seemed to be a large monster crocodile with the appearance of a crocodile, judging from its large, sharp teeth and rough skin like saw blades.
‘What kind of guy is he?’
Crocodile is a monster that appears all over the continent, but judging from its red mask, it was highly likely that it was a crocodile from a desert or hot area.
‘That must be the king too.’
Eden is not an ordinary monster, but uses the magic stones left by the chief or the king to make a helmet like this. The soul inside this helmet must be the Crocodile King.
-If someone else comes in here while using that, won’t everyone get caught?
Lars pointed to the treasury door and frowned.
‘It could be.’
If you say that you came here to find armor and weapons as Lars said, and you use this helmet, anyone will doubt it.
‘So I have no intention of writing it.’
-what? You guys will definitely use it… .

‘Because there is a way to contact the spirit world without using it.’
Raon put his hand inside the helmet and smiled lightly.
– No, nonsense! you are human It is impossible to control the soul at will!
‘that’s right. It’s impossible for me alone.’
I saw Lars nodding his head and tilting his head.
‘But you have your anger.’
Lars’ wrath is currently clinging to his soul. He couldn’t even wear a helmet if he unleashed that rage, and he could run into the monster’s spirit inside of it.
‘As expected, you are the best ho… No, it’s a helper.’
Lars must have surrendered his anger to claim this body someday, but that anger was useful in many ways.
The generous tree in the story would not be as good as the power that was handed over to cause damage.
– Oh, oh, oh!
Lars opened his mouth as if he hadn’t thought of that.
– Eh, nonsense! Why is the anger that should be a minus useful to you! Why are you using it as yours!
The boy threw his fists wildly as if exasperated. Of course, I didn’t have any strength, so I couldn’t even use a cotton bat.
‘Thank you for your continued support.’
Raon smiled and pushed Lars away.
-Shit!
Looking at the cotton candy that turned blue with depression, he raised the anger that clung to his soul. Sparks flew from the right hand in the helmet, and the field of view flashed white.
“hmm… .”
When I opened my eyes again, the world had changed.
The report that had been calm disappeared, and a volcano erupting with lava came into view. The dry air infused with heat stirred his lungs.
‘It’s caught properly.’
Raon smiled at the bubbling lava. I thought it was a desert, but it is a lava field. The owner of the mask seemed to be the Lava Crocodile King.
Koo-goo-goo-goo!
As I surveyed the volcanic field with a satisfied smile, an enormous amount of lava erupted from the center of the volcano.
Quaaaaaa!
A huge shadow falls behind the lava that soared up to reach the sky. Lava Crocodile King. A crocodile of a size never seen before flashed red eyes.
The energy it possessed was far behind, but in terms of size, it was similar to Lokta’s main body.
[Are you the human who will become my body?]
Lava Crocodile King lifted his chin and looked down at Raon.
“no.”
Raon smiled and shook his head.
“Are you a human who came to boil and eat you?”
[He must have lost his fear.]
Lava Crocodile King snorted.
[The expression of the humans who came to hunt me was like that every time. Of course, all of them went into my stomach.]
He c*cked his snout arrogantly.
[Humans are just prey. The same in the past and now.]
Lava Crocodile King stamped his foot with confidence.
‘It’s no wonder.’
The lava area is the worst terrain that makes you out of breath and loses your stamina just by walking.
Even for excellent knights and wizards, it would not have been easy to catch the Lava Crocodile King roaming the lava field like it was his own home.
‘It’s different here, though.’
This isn’t a real lava field, it’s just a spirit world. This kind of lava could be blocked with mental strength.
[Looking at you, I miss the soft skin of a human being. I’ll eat your soul and devour you as you leave. Don’t bother and quickly… .]
“okay. Let’s end it quickly.”
Raon nodded and pulled out the Celestial Sword.
“Before someone more troublesome comes along.”
[bouncer!]
Lava Crocodile King opened his mouth wide. Red lava spewed from her throat.
Quaaaaaaaa!
Raon lowered the Jecheon Sword until it touched the floor and then slashed it upward. The blue frost that bloomed on the silver blade formed a magnificent wall and collided with the lava.
Chii profit!
The huge ice wall did not melt even in the lava spouted by the Lava Crocodile King, and stood as it was at first. It was the difference between heat and cold, not mental strength.
[What, what! Why is there such a thing as ice!]
Lava Crogodile King widened his eyes in amazement.
[A piece of ice like that shouldn’t be able to stand even for a moment in front of lava!]
“Because it’s not just ice.”
Raon smiled and took a step forward. Blue frost soared over the blade of the Jecheon Sword.
“I guess you don’t know much about this place.”
The guy didn’t seem to know about the battle of mental power, probably because he didn’t listen to the explanation properly after the helmet was made.
Raon gently kicked the ground.
[You’re digging your own grave. Fool!]
As soon as he floated into the air, Lava Crocodile King stamped his feet. The lava bursting out of her cracked ground was shooting at her whole body.
“Is this kind of attack a grave?”
Raon resonated the ring of fire. He raised the level of his soul and unfolded the silver wind whirlwind of the snow wind sword resolution.
Whoa!
The storm of frost that spread from the blade of the sword froze all five streams of lava spouted by the Lava Crocodile King.
[This, what is this!]
Lava Crocodile King took a step back. She shook her chin, as if overwhelmed by the ring of fire’s soul resonance.
“Where are you going?”
Raon kicked the frozen lava and unleashed a series of snow wind sword fights. The sharp winds of frost ripped through Lava Crocodile King’s skin and ripped his flesh.
[Keep it off!]
Lava Crocodile King screamed in agony.
‘I’m glad he’s not like Lokta.’
If that crocodile was like a knight like Lokta, he would have been reluctant to kill it, but he was just a beast that thought of humans as its prey. He had no qualms about killing.
[this guy… .]
Lava Crocodile wrapped itself in lava.
[I’ll erase it without leaving a single bone fragment!]
It charged in the form of a lump of lava. It was an all-out strategy.
“Unfortunately, that’s impossible.”
Raon stepped on the advance. He crushed the lava that had risen on the floor and stretched out his Jecheon sword, which had been tilted to the left.
Chwaaaaang!
A sharp silvery line cut through the thick lava, and a blade of frost galloping behind it pierced Lava Crocodile King’s head.
[Keep it off… .]
Lava Crocodile King groaned as he fell to the ground.
[Uh, why was I, who was the loser of the volcano… .]
The guy collapsed, not even knowing what he had been hit with. The light in his red eyes slowly faded.
“Is he weak? or not… .”
Have I become stronger?
After absorbing Lokta’s soul, it seemed that his mental powers had grown beyond his expectations. He seemed like he wouldn’t be able to win unless it was a guy like Lars.
Koo-goo-goo-goo!
The lava field collapses, and the corpse of Lava Crocodile King disappears. It meant the end of this world.
Chiyiying!
While Raon was waiting for the time to return to reality, a blue dimension opened in the air.
“The main king came… Why is it already over!
Cotton Candy, who was just about to cross the dimension, opened his mouth as he watched the collapsing lava field.
“Hey child! You’re too fast… .”
Before Lars could finish his words, his vision was cut off.
What else did you come here for?
* * *
Raon opened his eyes. He saw the helmet of the Lava Crocodile King in his hand.
‘The color has faded a bit.’
The red color of the helmet seemed to have softened a little, probably because the spirit of the Lava Crocodile King inside had disappeared.
‘Las.’
Raon hit the ice flower bracelet with Lars.
‘How much time has passed?’
-Keuuu, even the main king doesn’t know.
Lars turned his head with a slight pout.
‘Why don’t you know?’
-I’m focusing on penetrating your mental world… .
He is really of no help.
‘Why did a guy who used up all his energy come to that place?’
-Gu, because I’m curious… .
‘Is there really nothing to do?’
Raon shook his head while looking at Lars, and carefully put Lava Crocodile King’s helmet back where it was.
-What nonsense are you talking about! The king is also busy! You have to make a meal plan, and the ingredients of the food… .
‘wait for a sec.’
When he saw the message floating in front of his eyes, he covered the talking Lars’ mouth.
[You have absorbed the soul of <Lava Crocodile King>.]
[All stats increase by 6 points.]
[The achievement of <Ring of Fire> has increased.]
[The achievement of <Cartoon Artist> increases.]
[The attribute <Fire Affinity> has been created.]
It was a reward obtained by absorbing the soul of the Lava Crocodile King. It was absorbed faster than before, probably because it was a smaller soul than Lokta.
‘Is this good too?’
It was said that the achievements of the ring of fire and cartoonist also increased with all the stat increases. Since it is not a humanoid monster, its martial arts itself did not rise, but better characteristics were created.
‘Fire property affinity.’
Just as the water attribute affinity strengthens the cold, the fire attribute affinity enhances the heat, so it was more than satisfactory.
– This, doesn’t this make sense!
Lars looked at the message and his eyes trembled.
-What’s going on so smoothly! Why is the world only helping you!
The guy gritted his teeth, saying that it wasn’t like this even when he used the system.
-The main king doesn’t even let me eat every time, so why is it that only you have it all!
‘Because I live kindly?’
– Month by month! It’s a bullshit that was beaten by Jiyia!
Lars barked like a puppy and rolled his eyes.
-You are the worst of humanity and devilishness that the king saw! There is no one like you in the demon realm!
‘Isn’t that what the Demon World is like?’
Every time I hear the story of the demon world, I’ve become quite familiar with it. At that level, she thought it wouldn’t be bad to go to the Demon World someday.
“hmm… .”
Raon licked his lips while looking at the exit of the report.
‘It doesn’t seem like much time has passed.’
In terms of the senses, it feels like less than an hour has passed, but the axis of time is different from the mental world, so that feeling may not be accurate.
‘Let’s step back for now.’
I looked at the other pitches and shook my head.
‘If I take more time, I might get suspicious.’
It seemed like it would be better to take the sword and come back later to devour the souls of other helmets.
On the table where the swords were lined up, Raon took a long sword similar to the one Lokta used.
Koo Goo Goo!
When I was about to go out with my sword on my waist, the earth, not this room, started to shake.
‘what?’
It wasn’t just a vibration, I felt that the outside was very busy after watching it.
As Raon frowned and turned around, the bottom of the treasury opened, and a soldier wearing a goblin mask came up from the outside.
“I have a problem. I need to seal the report, so please come out.”
“problem?”
“An intruder has entered the Taeeum barrier.”
“Are you an intruder? who?”
“I don’t know that either.”
‘no way… .’
My heart skipped a beat at the word intruder.
As Raon saw it and went outside, he expressed his excitement to the fullest. His eyes, which had little anticipation, darkened even before he left Daejeon.
“her… .”
My footsteps stopped by itself at the overwhelming presence outside of Daejeon.
‘What’s this.’
I thought that Cheryl or the chief swordsman might have come from Sieghart, but absolutely not.
The mysterious presence that was spreading right now was so strong that even Glenn couldn’t be defeated at all.
Raon swallowed dryly and headed for the exit of Daejeon.
What kind of monster has come?
