Episode 382 90. Party (2)
[I had a hard time pretending not to know.]
‘I never pretended not to know.’
[You didn’t even say it directly. If I just kept quiet, I would be pretending not to know.]
Lee Seong-min did not respond to Heo-ju’s mocking words. The feast is over. The fire that had been burning so big turned into a small ember and shook, and the noisy fairies hugged each other and fell asleep.
King Chang was still curled up sleeping. Near Black Dragon, who was sleeping with a satisfied expression, Teresa was sleeping peacefully, covered in a blanket.
Scarlett, who had been asking explicit questions while drinking, returned to the magic tower, and Baek Sogo was lying asleep not far away.
Seongmin Lee lifted himself up, removing the blanket on his lap.
know. There’s no way you wouldn’t know.
The questions were explicit, and so were the actions he had shown so far. I didn’t react to the knowledge.
As Heo Joo said, he pretended not to know. It had to be that way. I didn’t think she deserved it, and I thought, why me?
“Osla.”
Seongmin Lee came to the lakeside and called the fairy queen. Even during the party, Osla didn’t talk or laugh as much as usual.
I sipped a little alcohol and then went back to the lake. I knew the reason. One way or another, Osla had known the extinct spirit queen from long ago.
Although there was little interaction, equal beings who had lived together for thousands of years have disappeared.
“I don’t mind.”
Osla stuck his head out from the surface of the lake and grumbled. Her eyes were a little red.
“Just, kinda, yeah. I’m devastated… … It’s vain… … That’s just what I’m thinking. “You went away too easily.”
It would have been better if it had been a complete mud fight. Would it have been different if there had been fighting, struggling, and someone dying?
The disappearance of the Spirit Queen was in vain. Because she came down with a power far below her original power, it was not difficult to fight, and in the end, the divine spirit intervened and completely destroyed the queen’s existence.
“I’m scared of that.”
Fear is greater than sadness.
Osla muttered in a low voice. She stood with her wings hanging down and wrapped her arms around her own shoulders.
“Even if it looks like this, I also lived a very long time. Because I have been living since the beginning of this world… … It’s not like my life is a waste now. still… … It’s too easy. I am afraid that my existence will disappear so easily without my knowledge. “I’m so afraid of disappearing without being able to do anything.”
That would be the same for everyone. If a god intervenes, it will disappear without any chance of resistance.
It’s even more unsettling that I can’t figure out why God doesn’t do that. Because it’s not harvest time? What more are you trying to do?
If I’m with you, I’ll die. I remembered Frau’s taunting words. He couldn’t refute it.
Frau was selfish and right. Even if the world does not perish, what would it mean if one himself dies?
“And I feel anxious.”
Osla came out of the water and stood on the lake. She lowered her hands that had been around her shoulders and lowered them, looking up at her sky.
“Sarahenne was destroyed by the gods. But why don’t I disappear? you? What about other people? “Because there’s no need for that?”
“There must be some reason.”
It wouldn’t be meaningless. There must be some reason. Osla glanced at Lee Seong-min’s expressionless face and asked.
“Aren’t you afraid?”
“I’m afraid.”
“But why don’t you give up?”
“If I give up, everything I have done so far will become meaningless.”
Will we ever have another day like today where we drink too much and laugh and talk? No one dies, everyone survives in a world that never ends… … .
That would be impossible. It’s too greedy. It is absurd that no one dies.
If it were just that much, it wouldn’t even be possible to call it the end. No matter who it is, there will be sacrifices.
When I realized it, my heart throbbed. Of course, Lee Seong-min didn’t want anyone to die.
Even though I knew it was impossible.
Seongmin Lee approached Aine, who was lying down near the lake. She was an easy captive to handle.
Since we brought her to this forest, we have not given her anything to eat or drink, but Aine was still alive and well.
He has been completely subdued under the power of Osla and is in a long sleep.
“What are you trying to do?”
“It doesn’t do anything.”
Osla approached and asked. Seongmin Lee touched Aine’s fallen body with his foot and turned her around.
Aine’s chest was heaving slightly. Osla looked anxious as she looked at Lee Seong-min looking down at Aine’s chest.
“… … “Don’t think of anything dangerous.”
“You have to think about the possibility.”
“You know that. Your body is limited. “You can’t become stronger through predation.”
“The case may be different from existing predation.”
“The risk is too great.”
“I have no talent.”
Now, there was no bitterness in saying those words. It was such an obvious fact. The reason he was able to reach this level and become strong was because of fate that transcends talent, help from others, teachings, and many other conditions.
“The biggest reason I was able to come this far without any talent is because I was destined to have at least this level of power. And that fate disappeared along with me as I extinguished the Carnage Predator. “I do not belong to fate now, so it is impossible to grow along the lines of fate.”
Of course, this does not mean that Lee Sung-min has no room for growth.
As Hyeolma said, Lee Seong-min’s body is imperfect. The state of martial arts and the body are not balanced.
Lee Sung-min can become stronger because he is forced to give himself room to grow.
The cases are different. When I followed the path of destiny, I had no choice but to become stronger ‘unconditionally’.
I always went through trials that I could overcome. I grew up to live by facing hardships.
Not now.
Since we have escaped fate, we cannot receive the blessings of that convenient fate.
“I have no intention of trying it right now.”
Predating Aine is too risky. If we are not careful, this body may collapse when it reaches its limit.
It is already dangerous to take such a risk.

‘Not yet.’
Yeah, not yet.
* * *
Where is Jennyella now?
Perhaps they are marching into the fairy forest. What Lee Seong-min originally wanted to do was to attack Jennyella during the day, not at night.
But now that we know that the last ability of Jennyella’s magical eye is to levitate the full moon, such an attack becomes meaningless.
Even if you can’t decide on the time, you can now decide on the place. The Fairy Forest is Osla’s territory.
Jennyella, who does not give up on Aine, has no choice but to come to this forest. If she fights here, she will have a better chance of winning.
‘It’s not enough.’
All possible means must be used. It is not enough to leave room for Aine to be preyed on. The current Lee Sung-min is overwhelmingly better than Jennyella.
It’s speed. No matter how fast Jennyella moves, she is no better than Lee Seong-min, who has fairy magic.
next day.
Lee Seong-min headed to Trabia with the cooperation of Lloyd, Scarlett, and Baek So-go, who were suffering from hangovers.
What he wanted to do was clean up Trabia. When she came to Wudang Mountain, Jennyella did not bring any other vampires from Travia.
The only ones moving with her were Gemini, Chen, and Kun. This means that other blood relatives remain in Trabia.
It was good to aim for.
“oh.”
The voice disappears from my head. Jennyella stood with her head and put her fingers to her temples.
She saw blood relatives connected to her disappear one by one. It’s not just dead.
If that’s the case, the power of the dead blood relatives should be returned to Jennyella. Jennyella lifted both her hands and covered her own eyes.
Her vision connected with another vampire in Travia. Before long, the vampire’s vision went black. That was enough.
‘seal… … okay. There was a way. But wouldn’t it be easier and better for you to devour it than to seal it?’
It doesn’t mean that I no longer want to engage in the act of predation. So, does that mean there is a reason not to feast on it? The voice continues to disappear. Jennyella giggled, lowering her hands covering her eyes.
“what’s the matter?”
Gemini tilted his head as he looked at Jennyella, who was smiling.
“Trabia is under attack.”
“Are you deaf?”
“huh. Really, it irritates me in many ways. “If this happens, there will be no desire to negotiate.”
I didn’t intend to do that from the beginning. Gemini shrugged her shoulders at the thought.
“Are you okay?”
“There’s no way I wouldn’t care if my children are being slaughtered. “I’m very angry.”
“For that matter, it looks peaceful.”
Joo-won, who had been keeping his mouth shut, opened his mouth.
Joowon joined a few days ago. Joo-won, who had been holed up in the deep forest of the south, left the forest following Jennyella, who had come to visit at random times.
In the past, I thought he might be with Brook, the powerful werebear of Howon’s generation. When Jennyella met Joo Won, Brooke was already in Joo Won’s stomach.
“We were all destined to die anyway.”
Jennyella stopped listening to the disappearing voice. I felt regretful, regretful, and sad.
But it was also something that could not be helped. Even if you feel terrible anger over their deaths, it is impossible to travel from here south to Trabia.
However, it would take several months to come and travel north now.
“More than that, are you okay? After Travia, it’ll be Cheped. “There are Lycan Slopes there that you rule over.”
“I guess so.”
Joo-won nodded his head.
“I have to get revenge.”
Joo Won muttered while looking towards the far north.
In the past, when Howon was the leader of Lycan Slope.
Joo Won, who challenged Howon, defeated him and ate him, becoming the new leader of Lycan Slope.
Then Brock, Howon’s confidant and long-time friend, left the group and went to a distant place.
Nero remained by Joo Won’s side and became his confidant.
Joo Won believed in Nero. So, he left Cheped in Nero’s care before going to find and kill Brock.
Nero… … I won’t leave the city. Joo Won smiled bitterly.
“Aren’t you rather motivated?”
Jennyella said with a smile. There were barely any voices left in my head. Jennyella twirled her body around on her deck.
Smelling the salty sea breeze, she slowly raised her arms with both palms facing the sky.
“It really makes me want to kill you.”
Wow… … !
Red magic enveloped the ship. The ghost ship that was wandering the West Sea still remained even after Bolander disappeared, and the Death Knights who survived the Battle of Germud were also on this ghost ship.
Jennyella collected the ghost ship and death knights. It’s not just them.
As they headed south, they brought some particularly powerful monsters belonging to the Predator onto the ship, including Arbes and Kim Jong-hyun, and brought with them lichs who now had no owners.
‘Aine.’
In the center of the robed lichs, Frescan placed his hand on his chest and strengthened his resolve.
‘I will save you even if it means exchanging my life.’
The ship, engulfed in Jennyella’s magic, rose above the waves. She slowly moved her hands forward and measured the direction to the fairy forest.
“Will it take about five days?”
In the past, it took Lee Seong-min a month to get on a boat and head to the fairy forest. It is true that for a simple ship it would take that much time.
But this ship is not just a ship. She was originally a ghost ship that had nothing to do with waves or wind, but Jennyella’s endless magical power was added to it.
A ghost ship floated in the sky and crossed the sea.
