#324
324. King of the boundary (1)
I opened my eyes.
‘… … .’
For a very long time, I had a dream.
In my dreams I fought and fought and fought against infinite enemies.
No matter how many enemies I kill, no matter how many times I collapse from exhaustion, the dream never ends. A dream that seemed to last forever. And by the time even the scenery of such a dream became dark, I could see a spark in the distance.
sharp pain.
Clink.
I threw the dagger stuck in my chest.
The hole where the black blood had flowed was filled in an instant.
“……I am.”
Broken memories began to fill in.
“Han Seo-jin.”
my name on earth.
Here is Han Israt, the prince of Taoni… … .
‘Loki.’
I raised my head.
I saw someone lying down and dying.
Dirty Blonde. The neat uniform was stained with blood.
Siris.
Fragmented memories gradually began to come together.
That woman is Siris Argentheim. He was the leader and submaster of the 1st server that I trusted the most in Niflheim. Clearly from my memory… … That guy should have been left in the waiting room.
The memory gap is severe.
While I was losing myself, quite a bit seems to have happened.
I decided to take a look at my surroundings. Where is this place. Why did I wake up here what were you doing before that. Why is this woman dying here?
one.
two.
three.
‘Right.’
I narrowed my eyes.
‘Did I come after you?’
I’ve been told not to come back several times.
As long as the barrier exists, there is no way Siris could do this alone. There was a high possibility that the other heroes of Niflheim, or even the guys from Taonier, were involved.
flutter.
I fluttered my cloak.
The magic power that was floating around the border showed me the scenery of the past. What happened here was vividly reproduced right in front of my eyes. Like looking at a panorama. Fits perfectly with expectations. Geary was forced to do so.
“What are you doing?”
I looked down at Siris.
It seemed he was in no state to answer. A laugh came out of nowhere.
It was this guy’s fault that I temporarily regained my sanity.
[Loki.]
“Is it a fairy?”
[Yeah, it’s a first meeting. Call it Nissel.]
Above Siris, a red-haired fairy flapped her wings.
She must be the fairy in charge of Niflheim.
[The reason we came here is… … .]
“Is it because you want to fight with me?”
I don’t have to explain it one by one.
Outside, the other 13th floor members will be waiting.
Siris, who can resist border contamination, must have infiltrated here alone.
to convince me
Whoops.
When I waved my hand, I remembered Bifrost hanging from Siris’ waist.
I grabbed Bifrost’s scabbard. He read the data inside. Only then did she find out the truth about her. What was the purpose of these guys coming here? what do you expect from me
“Stupid bastards.”
I was considerate to live comfortably, but I’m doing something that doesn’t work.
[Loki.]
“…”
[If this continues, you will lose your temper again.]
“I don’t really care.”
i chose
It’s something you have to take responsibility for yourself.
‘I tried to kick him out, but… … .’
If he had tried to convince me with words, he would have kicked me out right away.
But to forcefully threaten like this?
‘This guy will die soon.’
His heart was pierced by a dragon sword.

The fire of life was rapidly going out. Even if it was to fill the hole in his heart, he overused his interference power. To the extent that existence itself disappears.
Of course, I knew how to save Siris.
To connect with my infinite cup. Siris will lose her powers of fire forever, but she can at least save her life.
‘Is this your persuasion?’
If I don’t accept it, Siris will die.
This is not persuasion or anything. Counter-threatening to counter-force.
If you don’t want to kill yourself, make a contract.
‘ha.’
I cupped my forehead.
I thought he was a cold-hearted guy, but I never thought he would be such an idiot.
It wasn’t about entrusting the submaster.
[Loki, don’t force it. Even if Siris dies, even if everyone outside is abandoned, we will gladly accept your decision.]
Nisel looked at me.
[Know one thing. You may think that you left them out of consideration, but the truth is completely different.]
Star dust shimmered on Nisel’s wings.
After that, he landed on the floor as if a little fairy had collapsed.
As soon as I saw it, I recognized the identity of the fairy.
‘Pray.’
Bend your knees.
A girl small enough to fit in both hands.
Sleeping soundly without knowing the world.
[This is the colleague you left behind in Eden. You probably left it alone because you didn’t want to drag it into the battlefield, but look at this child.]
I could tell at a glance.
A state of serious contamination.
‘I guess he didn’t leave.’
I bit my lip.
Suddenly, Frey’s eyelids fluttered.
Those big eyes shined on me.
[as… … key… … ?]
Eyes blinking in disbelief.
The girl jumped up and clung to my arm.
[Loki! Loki! You were here!]
“…”
[don’t go! I’m sorry, I’ll do my best! So please, don’t abandon me! I’m sorry, I’m sorry, Loki… … . It’s my fault. therefore… … .]
Frey mumbled several times before eventually falling asleep again.
A single tear ran down Frey’s chubby cheek as he slept. Nissel, who was looking at me and Frey, opened her mouth.
[You thought this place was hell and abandoned Frey, but… … .]
Nisel placed her hand on her chest.
[To this child, the place without you was more hell. i can tell Because I am a fairy who grew up, was born, and was with you in the same place. Siris and I, and the other heroes are the same. for that… … We risked everything and came to see you.]
I slowly set Frey down on the floor.
“So, you want to rot here with me?”
[huh.]
“Do you know who I’m fighting?”
[It’s the chaos of the universe itself. I am determined.]
“How long will that resolution last? 10 years? 100 years? 1000 years? And, do you think you guys will help in this war?”
[I’m sure it will come in handy. If you share your power colleagues rather than individuals. A friend over a colleague. The power of unity is what you always emphasized to us.]
Nissel continued.
[You know best that Niflheim has enough potential, right? If given the opportunity, each of us can do our part well. In a long fight, those heroes will become your shield, sword, and spear.]
“…”
[Stop enduring it alone. You don’t have to push yourself. When you’re tired, it’s okay to lean on us.]
Nisel looked at me and winked.
I laughed out loud. He’s just talking nonsense.
‘When to expel to Earth.’
Will you come and fight with me?
Even if the front and back are different, they are so different.
[Ummm… … . Loki… … .]
I looked down at Frey.
Admit it. this is my mistake
If it was their intention to separate them, they should have paid more attention.
I didn’t expect to ruin myself in this way.
‘United power.’
I clutched my chest.
It contained endless power. The colossal and pure power of interference that I have gathered over eons of time. Perhaps if I released this power instantaneously, I would lose my body as well. Even with a body that exceeded the limits of a god, the output was simply not enough to withstand.
‘This power… … Do you mean sharing?’
Can these guys handle it?
It is more than 7 star power. They may lose themselves as I did.
[It’s a useless worry.]
As if understanding my thoughts, Nissel smiled.
‘If I accept Niflheim… … .’
It may be weaker than before.
You will be carrying an unnecessary burden.
Because there will be something to protect.
I looked up.
There was a vast darkness.
There must be infinite enemies lurking beyond.
“What do you think?”
I felt a blunt feel in my left hand.
A statue of a warhorse that is half crumbled from wear and tear.
‘I was watching.’
I felt it from the start.
The familiar gaze of the guy looking down from above.
crackle. support position.
Amkena’s control panel was full of noise.
Poor picture quality. It was common for the screen to freeze due to buffering every few seconds.
Nevertheless, Amkena did not disconnect.
‘Does that guy know?’
The truth of the world in the game.
probably don’t know I can only guess where this place is and why I fought, and there will be no way to know in the future. Because the worlds we live in are so different. It may be the feeling of watching a movie whose plot is unknown.
“I can’t answer.”
I chuckled.
Then it is.
[The battle shop is open.]
[You have selected a cheering stick (single use, 50 gems). Would you like to purchase?]
[Yes / No]
hmm?
I blinked.
The lights were twinkling.
‘A fluorescent stick?’
why out of the blue
[Purchased!]
[Slide the LCD left and right!]
[Show the hero the support of the Master!]
Flash!
Purple flashes colored the air.
What are you doing?
Amkena waved her fluorescent stick up and down.
A faint light swayed and drew a trail in the air.
The trail of light moves slowly.
each one carefully.
Like writing letters in the air.
[one.]
in the dark.
Purple light painted the letters.
[Be happy.]
Soon, the letters of light became an illusion and faded away.
[FIGHTING!]
After the fluorescent rod disappears,
I stood still.
Nissel was watching me from behind.
“Are you happy?”
Embarrassed, I laughed.
‘To be happy?’
I’m not sure what that feels like.
After falling here, it was a series of fights and struggles.
I didn’t know if I was going to die or live, so I was just struggling, but happiness was nothing.
“What are you saying?”
Tztz.
I clicked my tongue.
Things could have gone smoothly if you were better at the game.
happiness. The word sounded like a foreign language to me.
Whether you accept Nisel’s proposal or not, will there really be happiness?
‘but… … .’
Rather than fighting alone,
It might be more fun to have someone by your side.
sereung.
Bifrost’s scabbard fell to the floor.
The magic words engraved on the blade of the ink-colored greatsword were shining golden.
The white fur cloak blew violently in the wind.
“How many of you said you were coming?”
I said with my sword drawn.
[About 15,000 people?]
“There are too many suicide attempts.”
[are you okay. With your strength, I won’t die even if I die!]
“I know you’ll be kicked out if you’re useless.”
[huh!]
Nisel wiped her eyes.
I laughed and let down the bifrost.
round and round
After turning the greatsword once, it was inserted below.
The ink-colored blade was deeply embedded in the gloomy floor of the boundary.
‘Be open.’
I muttered.
Whoa! At that moment, brilliant golden magic flowed from the blade of the sword.
The flash of light instantly lit up the dark borders and burned the pollution clouds. A dazzling brilliance that spreads without knowing the end. In the midst of it, I recited the words behind.
‘The gap in the dimension.’
Gee!
A golden line continued to draw a dimensional gate in the air.
Then, familiar shadows emerged from outside the portal.
“Lydigion, here.”
A cold-looking man knelt down on one knee.
Lydigion. His whole body was soaked in fresh blood, but, as always, it was the blood of the enemy.
“Master! Found it!”
Paperweight!
Nihaku jumped up with lightning.
Landing swiftly on the ground, Nihaku looked at me and smiled.
“……master.”
A white-haired woman walked out of the fog.
Yunet Seed. She met her eyes with mine and lowered her head.
finally.
“Aaron?”
“yes.”
The man with the spear scratched his head.
“Didn’t you go home?”
“Until my brother’s fight is over, I will stay.”
“Stupid.”
“Isn’t that my strong point?”
Aaron smiled shyly.
The spear in his hand is Ruin, one of the Five Gods.
I could intuit that Muden had retired.
“Master, you’re safe… I’m glad…”
Yurnet’s expression, which had been holding on to her emotionless expression, soon collapsed.
She came to me with a teary face.
“I… forgive the Master…”
“You don’t have to. I got a lot of help from you.”
Clink.
I kicked the dagger under my feet.
This must also be Yunet’s work.
“Sirini!”
Nihaku ran away in a hurry.
There, Siris was lying dead.
I’ll have to tackle this first.
“Master, Sirini…!”
“Stop crying. Just watch.”
I passed Nihaku and knelt beside Siris.
Blood was pouring from the hole in his chest. I clasped my right hand. A high concentration of interference gathered in his grasp.
‘contract.’
It is to connect my heart with this guy.
Can I call it a blessing? Rather, it would be more like a curse.
‘Well, even so.’
I can’t abandon the hero I raised.
I put my hand on Siris’ chest.
It feels like I’ll stop breathing any moment. If it wasn’t for the power of fire, he would have died right away.
here.
He clasped his hand.
pounding.
Light connected the torn heart.
