Chapter 578
Raon narrowed his eyes as he looked at Lars, who was floating in a daze.
‘That top-notch spirit. Is it because of you?’
-huh?
Lars scratched his chubby belly and tilted his head. The guy stared blankly at the first-class spirit who died, then clapped his hands loudly.
-That, that’s right! That bird must have shrunk like that because he was fed up with the majesty of the original king!
‘… … .’
Judging from Lars’ reaction, he didn’t reveal his presence on his own will. It was clear that the highest level spirit alone felt something about Ras.
– Spirits are beings closest to nature, so it’s not strange to feel the majesty of the original king!
Lars giggled, saying that there was finally someone who recognized him.
‘Did you go to the spirit realm by any chance?’
– It’s been quite a while, but I’ve been there.
‘So, did you try eating spirits?’
-Why are you asking the obvious? It’s chewy and delicious.
Lars licked his lips, saying that it was a special meal.
-Green spirits taste like green grapes, and red spirits taste like strawberries.
‘I wasn’t curious about the taste of spirits!’
Raon bit his lip and pressed his temples.
‘It’s because of that!’
Apparently, that top-level spirit remembered Lars, who ate the spirits, and was terrified like that.
‘There is no answer to this… .’
I heard that the spirit and the summoner share some level of sympathy, if not conversation.
If the highest level spirit even brings up the story of the Demon King, everyone’s lives here will be in danger.
-It can’t be. Since the spirit king of fire and spirit king of water went while they were in the spirit realm, such a young guy would never have met the original king.
Lars shook his head, saying that the highest level spirit would not have seen him.
-That’s just surrendering to the king’s presence itself!
The guy laughed hehehe as he praised himself.
‘That would be nice, but we have to prepare for the worst. The moment the story about the demon king comes out… .’
You have to cut down all the elves.
I felt sorry for Rimer, but if he brought up the story of the demon king, he had no choice but to kill everyone.
Raon gripped the hilt of the Jecheon Sword tightly and bent his knees. He poked his head inside Eri as he prepared to pop out at any moment.
“what?”
He looked at Raon in disbelief and widened his eyes.
‘Did I get caught?’
The moment he was about to step on Taehwabo while biting his lips, Erian’s mouth opened again.
“Up, the great one?”
He trembled as he muttered that he was not a demon king, but a great being.
“uh… ?”
Raon hurriedly ran out, but stopped and widened his eyes.
‘what?’
Are you a great being?
I thought it would be called the Demon King, but the word “great being” suddenly popped out, and I was more embarrassed.
“Did the great being really mean the King of Spirits?”
In the middle of the day.
The highest level spirit of the wind shook his head low. It seemed that I didn’t even know myself.
“eww… .”
Erian lifted his trembling chin and the hand holding the sword trembled.
“human! Could it be that you made a contract with the Spirit King?”
His eyes widened as if he couldn’t believe it even when he asked.
“… .”
Raon looked at Erian and blinked blankly.
‘What bullshit… .’
I couldn’t understand the situation, so my mouth fell open on its own.
“You mean the spirit king?”
Rayran, who was waiting in the back, took the place of the absurd question.
“I can’t feel any spirit energy from that human.”
“That’s why he’s called the Spirit King! The spirit king is an existence beyond the spirit itself! No wonder we can’t feel it!”
“It can’t be. The two remaining spirit kings cannot come out because they are maintaining the spirit realm.”
“Then it must be the newly born Spirit King. The soon-to-be king, a fire or water spirit, has that human in his heart!”
“Such nonsense… .”
“Why are you saying no? Don’t try to judge the great by your little brain.”
Rayran shook his head in disbelief, but Erian kept his lips firmly shut as if he was already convinced of his thoughts.
“When did you make a contract with the Spirit King? After all, my disciple!”
Rimer blinked and approached. I don’t know why this person is cheating.
“The Spirit King! Is it fire? Is it water?”
Dorian snorted, probably excited, and asked if he was the fire spirit king or the water spirit king.
“I don’t think so… .”
Yua was the only one who tilted her head as if it was strange.

-These crazy bastards!
Lars roared as he flew forward.
– How dare you compare the main king to a spirit! Did you freak out because you wanted to get behind!
Kieeck… .
As it went mad and ran amok, the highest level spirit became more and more discouraged and slammed its head into the ground with its eyes closed.
Raon catches his breath as he sees the dizzy situation.
‘Now I get a rough idea.’
It was clear that that top-notch spirit did not remember Lars, who had been fighting in the Pandemonium, but felt that he was a great being because he felt the terrible coldness of Ras and the status of an out-of-standard soul.
It seemed that this happened because the spirit was the closest being to nature.
‘It’s not the worst, but it’s not good either.’
The fact that he was with the Demon King was not revealed, and the worst was avoided, but being known as a contractor of the King of Spirits was not a good thing either.
“after… .”
Raon let out a short breath and shook his head.
“I am not a contractor of the Spirit King. It’s the first time I’ve seen a spirit, so it’s a misunderstanding… .”
“That’s it!”
Erian quickly nodded as if he was caught.
“Originally, the spirit king does not make contracts with those who contract with other spirits. It is clear that a being prepared to become a new king is watching over you!”
He bit his lip, saying that the Spirit King would soon speak to him. As if he was already in his own world, he stopped listening to others.
“He’s a guy who lives in the other world, so he doesn’t listen to what others say.”
Rimmer waved his hand, asking if he had felt it from the first time he saw Erian.
“I guess so… .”
Raon chewed his lips.
‘driving me crazy… .’
I laughed out loud because I was dumbfounded, then I remembered what Lars said a moment ago.
‘But what does it mean that there is no fire spirit king and water spirit king?’
– Don’t you know? It’s been a while since those two disappeared from the spirit realm.
Lars nodded calmly.
‘why?’
– They say that the two died together after a life-and-death fight, but I don’t know if that’s true.
The guy shook his hand, saying he had no interest in those weaker than himself.
‘Can the spirit realm be maintained without the spirit king?’
-Because the spirit king of earth and wind is covered in blood. There’s another guy in there.
‘The other one?’
Erian’s mouth opened again when he was about to ask who it was.
“I can’t leave a human who will make a contract with the Spirit King like this.”
Erian put the sword into the scabbard and sent even the highest level spirit of the wind back to the spirit realm.
“Follow me.”
He waved his hand to enter the sepia.
“What are you talking about?”
Rayran blocked the path with the hand holding the bow.
“Even if that person is really a contractor for the King of Spirits, you shouldn’t enter Sepia right now.”
She shook her head, saying that it was impossible to bring in an outside person at this important time.
“He is the contractor of the Spirit King that came out after hundreds of years. there… .”
Erian frowned at Rimer.
“For the sake of dealing with that bastard, it’s only right to take him now.”
“but… .”
“I take responsibility.”
He was convinced that Raon was indeed a contractor of the Spirit King and beckoned him to follow him.
“Hey, I’m sure I took good care of my pupils.”
Rimer grinned and patted him on the shoulder as if he was glad he didn’t fight.
Raon looked at Rimer and grabbed his forehead.
‘It’s not the time to laugh. You burn!’
* * *
“Hmm… .”
The red-haired elf, with traces of time thinly engraved on his face, touched his chin.
“The guy who left the house is finally coming back.”
“yes?”
The female elf, who had been hiding under the blanket with only her head sticking out, lifted her head slightly. Her blonde hair, like melted platinum, flowed gently like spring water.
“Who, who is coming?”
Her red lips trembled, not in interest, but in concern.
“Your brother.”
“ah!”
The blonde elf pricked up his ears like a rabbit. But her upper body still wouldn’t come out of the blanket.
“I-really?”
“okay. It’s just that your temperament seems to have changed a little.”
The red-haired elf looked at the female elf with a light smile.
“Sian. Would you like to meet her brother?”
“ah… .”
The female elf called Shiyan moved her legs slowly and slipped into the futon like a turtle.
“Cha, it’s embarrassing.”
“It’s been a while since I’ve seen my family. What’s embarrassing?”
“A lot of time has passed… .”
“Family is not something that can be measured by time.”
The red-haired elf stroked Shiyan’s hair and shook his head.
“hmm? The three humans are coming too.”
“Hey, are you human?”
“You are very strong. He seems young, but being a grand master is an unbelievable talent.”
The red-haired elf exclaimed in genuine admiration.
“How are you? Would you like to go with me too?”
“… … .”
Shiyan did not respond to the words of the red-haired elf, only dreaming in her eyes under the blanket.
“I-I’ll be here… .”
“after… .”
The red-haired elf let out a short sigh and raised his gaze. The wrinkles around his eyes quivered.
“Sian. We don’t have much time left.”
“… … .”
“I might be able to do it this time, but next time it really might not be. You’d better prepare your mind.”
“Ah, I get it.”
Shiyan’s voice sounded like she was crawling out from under the futon.
“okay. Then I won’t go out.”
The caught elf shook his hand lightly and left the room.
“… … .”
Shiyan still hid under the blanket and did not breathe. It wasn’t until she heard the footsteps of her red-haired elf leaving the place that she walked out of the futon and sprang out.
“sorry. But I didn’t want to be born as a high elf either.”
Shiyan let out a deep sigh and shook his head.
“That’s even worse than an ordinary elf, so he doesn’t know how to do anything… .”
With her shoulders down, she clutched the booklet lying on the bed in her hand.
Shiyan muttered that she wanted to live a normal life and opened the book. The name of Raon Sieghart was engraved on the cover of the book, which looked new and tidy.
“I want to be Raon Sieghardt too… .”
* * *
Raon narrowed his eyes as he followed Erian.
‘This one looks like a real elf.’
Unlike Rimer, Erian was opening a path in the forest just by walking.
Rimer was superior in terms of force itself, but it seemed that this one had a higher affinity for nature.
When I turned my eyes to the stinging gaze from the side, Rayran was openly fixating his gaze.
It was a look full of doubt as if you could really become a contractor for the King of Spirits.
“Why are you looking at me like that?
Raon looked at Rayran and waved his hand awkwardly.
“sorry. It was rude to stare at humans.”
Rayran said he made a mistake and bowed his head politely.
“But being a contractor of the Spirit King is really… .”
“Didn’t you say you were right?”
Erian looked back at Rayran and furrowed his brow.
“Are you not trusting me?”
“It’s hard to believe this time.”
Being an elf as expected, Rayran spat out the words that it was difficult to trust her boss.
“joy. You’ll find out later. Whose word is right?”
-That’s your answer.
Lars glared at Erian and gnashed his teeth.
‘Are you sure?’
– Because the answer is fixed. you just have to answer Kkondae itself!
The guy trembled with clenched fists, saying that the more he looked at it, the more annoyed he became.
“Yes. You will find out later.”
Rayran bowed his head to Raon as if he was rude.
“it’s okay.”
Raon shook his head and frowned.
‘driving me crazy. How do I resolve this misunderstanding?’
-Let the main king descend immediately!
Lars tapped his chest saying he would solve it himself.
-If all the elves here are frozen alive, there won’t be anyone who compares the main king to spirits!
The guy let out a bloody laugh, saying he would turn all the elves in existence into ice statues.
‘Because my head is complicated now. You too, stay still.’
-I hate it! Hand over!
‘Just go in!’
Erian’s steps stopped when Raon pushed Lars into the bracelet.
“This is Sepia.”
As I followed his words, I raised my gaze, and a world full of green vegetation filled my eyes.
The golden sunlight coming down from the sky brought life to the trees and grass, making it seem like I was seeing a world that was not real.
There were many trees and bushes similar to the Great Forest, but the road was open, so it didn’t feel complicated or stuffy.
‘Am I living in a tree?’
Elves seemed to live in trees like squirrels.
However, because it is also a place where humans come and go, there are also buildings that seem to have been touched by human hands.
‘There must be a reason for the high purity of mana.’
Elves did not damage nature and lived a symbiotic life, so the concentration of mana here seemed much thicker than outside.
‘I can’t see the world tree.’
Perhaps because it was hidden by a barrier, the huge tree that was said to reach the sky was invisible.
“ah… .”
“Wow!”
Dorian blinked in surprise, and Yua burst into a wide smile at the thick scent of mana.
Raon looked at the inside of the sepia and licked his lips.
‘There is no one.’
I heard that there were a few people coming and going in Sepia, but now I didn’t see any humans.
Rayran said there was something important inside Sepia, and that seemed to be the reason.
“It’s the same here.”
Rimer looked at the panoramic view of Sepia and revealed a longing-filled look in her eyes.
“You seem to have changed a lot.”
Erian frowned at Rimer.
“Because the world is constantly changing.”
Rimer smiled at Erian’s ferocious eyes.
“Continue with the guidance.”
“A reckless bastard.”
Erian twisted his mouth and went inside the sepia.
“hmm?”
“… Limer?”
“that’s right. It’s Rimer.”
“Are you back now?”
The elves inside Sepia recognized Rimmer and widened their eyes. No one was surprised by the nature of the elves, but they were definitely recognizing Limer.
“Wasn’t he dead?”
“I think my right arm was cut off… .”
“They say you ran away because of the sword, but why did you come back?”
“Hmm. Is it because of that?”
“But Rimer-sama is not a high elf.”
“What are humans? why now… .”
The elves stopped walking and looked at Rimer and cautiously parted their lips.
“long time no see! How have you all been?”
Rimer coolly waved at the elves.
“Why, why are you here?”
“Like a human… .”
“How could Mr. Rimer, who was aloof, speak like that… .”
“The outfit is also weird.”
“Did the human get water?”
The elves trembled as if embarrassed by Rimer’s frivolous tone.
They seemed more surprised by Rimmer’s tone than by his broken arm.
Raon looked at Rimer’s back and frowned.
‘This elf. How did you live?’
Looking at the reactions of the elves, it seems that Limer was really calm before. Rimmer’s character was increasingly unpredictable.
“I will go to Mr. Sterin. You’d better be prepared.”
Erian glared at Rimer with cold eyes and accelerated his steps.
“What are you determined to do?”
Rimer sneered and followed Erian.
‘Sterine… .’
Probably a high elf.
Sterin is an elf that Rimer said was the leader of Sepia. I wondered how strong it would be and what kind of spirits I could summon.
The more I followed Erian, the narrower the road became, and the fewer elves I encountered.
When I went to the human leader, it was amazing because the road became more and more colorful and the number of people increased.
“This is it.”
He stopped in front of a large cottonwood tree with an old door stuck in it. Although the tree is quite large, it was hard to believe that the leader of a tribe lived in a place like this.
“Don’t be frivolous, be polite.”
Erian swept the hilt of his sword as if he would kill him if he spoke nonsense.
“No. don’t worry.”
Rimer waved his hand, saying, “Go in quickly.”
smart.
Erian clicked his tongue and knocked on the door attached to the tree.
“Guardian. outside… .”
“Come in.”
Before he could speak, a low voice came from inside the tree. It was a clear voice that seemed to ease his body and mind.
“yes.”
Erian carefully opened the door and went inside. The inside was wider than it looked from the outside, but it was more simple than expected, so it didn’t look like a place where the guardians of the tribe lived.
However, since that race was an elf, it was understandable.
A red elf was lying on a rocking chair made of vines. The elf, whose sunken eyes were somehow similar to Limer’s, lifted his upper body while making wrinkles around his eyes.
‘Is this man the guardian of the elves?’
He stood in the same realm as Glenn and Seonggeomyeonju, but his temperament was completely different.
Unlike the two who revealed themselves to the world, this elf was assimilating itself into the world.
It seemed that he had reached an unrivaled level of embodying nature in his body and mind.
“Rimer. very late… .”
Sterin looked at Rimmer with a faint smile.
“grandfather!”
Rimmer ran to Sterrin and hugged him tightly.
“uh? Limer?”
Sterin’s chin trembled as if taken aback by Rimmer’s sudden embrace.
‘Is that human even the leader’s lineage?’
Raon also opened his mouth wide in embarrassment.
“What a madman!”
Erian frowned as he forcibly pulled Rimer away.
“Now, his comeback is not important. The disappeared contractor of the Spirit King has appeared!”
He pushed Rimer back and pointed at Raon.
“you guys… .”
Sterin frowned as he looked at Rimer and Erian in turn.
“Have you heard Satan?”
