Return of the Frozen Player 443
Reaper of Souls (1)
Plains with frozen rivers, people crying, red-haired knights who have closed their eyes forever.
Seo Jun-ho, who was looking at the lie-like scene, reached out his hand involuntarily.
“Sir Hart.”
Know. I knew better than anyone.
That the life that blooms grows rapidly, blooms brilliant petals, and one day withers.
But the knight’s expression was so calm, so warm.
If I just shook my shoulders a little, I felt like I would open my eyes and spit out words like ‘I fell asleep for a while’.
“Sir Heart?”
Let’s lightly shake Heart’s shoulders with trembling fingers.
He collapsed on Seo Jun-ho like a puppet with a thread cut off.
Is it that people who wear armor are supposed to be this heavy?
heavy. It was too heavy. It was all the more so compared to the light body of the Thunder Emperor.
“contractor… …
Frost Queen looked at Seo Jun-ho, whose face was white, with a pitiful expression.
“Didn’t the heart do that? Blame yourself
don’t tell me It’s not your fault.”
“… … How am I?”
if you were faster
if you were stronger
If only I had arrived 10 minutes, or at least 5 minutes earlier.
‘Then I could have saved him.’
Why weren’t you more desperate?
Why didn’t you try harder?
Why did he arbitrarily assume that he would never die?
Seo Jun-ho, who distorted his face, closed his eyes.
‘I repeat mistakes and failures every time.’
I made a promise as I laid the light body that had lost its arms and legs on the grave.
let’s be strong
Let’s be strong enough not to feel the dirty feeling of losing someone again.
‘That’s why I became stronger.’
If you confront yourself now
If not, I am confident that I can crush him in 10 minutes.
For that, I have accumulated over 17 years of combat experience.
I ate the main ophthalmology that always keeps my body in the best condition.
Did you learn the three herbivores of the Black Moonlight?
“But was it not enough… …
Several articles approached Seo Jun-ho, who was smiling in vain.
Lightly bowing their heads, they collected Lord Hart’s body.
“hmm. The path they walked was different, but he was always a role model.”
It was the mage tower owner who approached Seo Jun-ho, who had lost his mind.
“First of all, sorry for doubting you. The situation was so urgent that I did not have time to ask why I was acting differently.”
He glanced at the tears running down Seo Jun-ho’s cheeks and opened his mouth.
“I don’t know how it is on Earth, but here it is believed that when a great knight dies, his soul goes to the Knights’ Corridor.
I am.”
“… … The Knight’s Corridor?”
“A place called heaven for those who wield a sword. They say he mixes swords with other great knights there every day.”
As if he didn’t know much more than that, the master of the Mage Tower coughed and cut off his words.
“Sir Hart must have gone there. so so… … Don’t beat yourself up.”
As the magic tower departed, Seo Jun-ho’s eyelids slowly went up.
‘The Knight’s Corridor… …
If a really great knight goes to such a paradise after he dies.
Unless that was a lie created by the Master of the Magic Tower.
[You can use Soul Collector (A).]
[Would you like to collect Heartwiper’s soul?]
What is this.
“Thank you, really… … Thank you very much.”
The lord of Märchen just repeated those words.
Normally, receiving such thanks would make me proud, but today, one side of my heart felt cold.
‘I’d rather put the blame on myself, even if it’s frustrating.’
That didn’t happen.
Rather, he was treated as a hero who defeated Najad Hollow and saved the empire.
“You must be very tired, everyone rest in your room and see you in the morning.”
Seo Jun-ho, who was assigned a nice room, sat down on a soft bed.
Washing his face dry with both hands, he laughed.
“I lost the star of the empire, but I was treated as a hero. From afar, this must be a comedy, right?”
“Oh, um…

The Frost Queen crossed her fingers at the side.
Will you say comforting words or now
I was wondering if I should leave it alone.
“Whoa.”
At that time, Seo Jun-ho, who exhaled lightly and raised his head, opened his mouth.
“It’s frost.”
“Yes?”
Frost replied, pricking up his ears like a frightened rabbit.
“What is a soul?”
“soul? You are asking a very stupid question.”
Seo Jun-ho muttered as he looked at the message that floated in front of him.
“… … It’s definitely out of the blue.”
[You can use Soul Collector (A).]
[Would you like to collect Heartwiper’s soul?]
He still couldn’t accept or reject this offer.
‘What will happen if I collect this soul? What if I refuse?’
Because it was confusing .
It wasn’t that I didn’t know what a soul was, but it was the first time in my life that I was so directly connected with the concept.
“… … If you accept this, can I apologize to Sir Hart?”
or not.
Is collecting souls itself a big disrespect to him?
‘The Corridor of Knights.’
A glorious place that every knight dreams of going to after death.
I don’t know, but if it’s a heart, it’s there
You will be full and full of qualifications to go.
‘But if I collect these souls, I might not be able to go to the corridor.’
Seo Jun-ho sighed quietly.
“Why does it stay still and only activate at times like this? unnoticed.”
“I have no idea what you mean.”
“The Soul Collector has been activated.”
“what?”
The Frost Queen widened her eyes.
Even if the two put their heads together and struggle for a while, they couldn’t solve it.
Wasn’t it a secret?
Frost, who ran to the side, grabbed his sleeve and shook it.
“What? What was it? What do you do to activate it? She dies of wonder.”
“I don’t know either.”
He has witnessed many deaths since gaining this ability.
Not only had he killed himself, but he had also seen players who had died.
‘But this is the first time the ability has been activated.’
If so, what was the difference between them and Heart?
Seo Jun-ho carefully formulated several hypotheses.
first. When someone close to you dies and you want to bring it back to life.
second. If you are a kind soul who has accumulated great achievements enough to be called a hero.
third. If it is a soul with the ‘class’ that Melis, a high-ranking demon, said.
After hearing the organized opinions, the Frost Queen nodded.
“Everyone has a point. Maybe it only activates when all three conditions are met.”
“That’s too tight a condition.”
As I frowned, I felt cold fingers pressing down on my crumpled forehead.
“Don’t frown. Wrinkles form.”
“… … I don’t care.”
When Seo Jun-ho replied in an arrogant manner, the King of Frost laughed.
It’s like dealing with a pouting kid.
She shrugged and opened her mouth.
“Is there any reason to worry in the first place? Collect them, and release them if you don’t like them, isn’t it?”
That was right.
If the souls of the collected hearts hate him, then there is nothing wrong with releasing them.
“… … I’ll think about it.”
After thinking for a moment, Seo Jun-ho closed his eyes and replied.
Because I didn’t have the confidence to face the heart’s soul yet.
“Why do you keep drinking that tobacco-flavored c*cktail?”
“Fit liquor has its own taste. It’s a deep taste that children like Miss Xia don’t know about.”
Isaac drinking chalk and smoke
Debord laughed lightly.
“It’s stupid.”
Even after she shook her head and left, Isaac, who had been drinking for a long time, suddenly stopped.
“hmm?”
His eyes suddenly lit up, and he set down his glass and put his hand in his bosom.
The card that I always put in there, now there are only a few left.
“Hoo.”
I saw a card cut cleanly in half
He chuckled and burst into laughter.
“The false king is dead.”
He firmly believes that he can become a king himself, but he is too shabby to do so.
Upon learning of the death of an old colleague, Isaac went straight to the Heavenly Demon.
He bowed his head respectfully toward the entrance of the tightly closed cave.
“I’m sorry, but it’s a bad news. Following Colonel Tsarbok a few days ago, Najad Hollow is also dead.”
Although the Heavenly Demon had not yet fully recovered her damaged body, she was not as mad as before.
A dry voice came from inside the cave.
-If you bring me one more useless news, I will cut your throat.
It was a response to the death of someone who had been with him for decades.
‘Perhaps even if I die, he’ll show the same reaction.’
To the Heavenly Demon, subordinates are nothing more than tools to understand people.
‘Because I like that.’
The indifference that regards all living things equally as worms beneath their feet.
Isaac Debord shuddered at the thrill and bowed his head.
“I look forward to the day you come out.”
His eyes, full of vigilance like those of a stray cat, scratched the surroundings.
Seo Jun-ho quickly grasped the situation.
‘what?’
I definitely have memories before I fall asleep.
The problem was after that.
‘For kidnapping… … There was no sign of him approaching the bedroom.’
If there was, you would have noticed first.
Even if he had missed it, the one occasion in a while, frost and intuition would have warned him.
‘Then what is it?’
A huge temple was visible in front.
A temple made of pure white stone.
Behind me, I could see the vast cloud spreading out.
‘It’s an endless cloud.’
If so, the location of this place must be high in the sky.
Is it the work of demons? But how did you kidnap him?
In the middle of a complicated mind with thoughts like this.
[You can use Soul Collector (A).]
[Would you like to collect Heartwiper’s soul?]
“You are kind of off.”
As I growled lowly at the message that appeared unnoticed, a voice came from behind me.
“Is that what you said to me?”
‘voice!’
There was no sign, so how?
Seo Jun-ho’s eyes trembled violently as he hurriedly turned around.
“… … Sir Hart?”
No way. He is dead.
Aren’t you bothered by the message to collect his soul right now?
However, the knight in front of him was definitely a heart weeper.
“Well, I didn’t know you were making such a pathetic face.”
He sighed and shook his head.
Seo Jun-ho, who was staring blankly at it, muttered.
“Is it phantom magic?”
No, because he has the spirit of a hero (EX), he really can’t stand most spells, right?
Heart looked at Seo Jun-ho’s stupid face and turned around.
“Your face looks like it would make me stupid if I looked at it any more. come with me Let’s talk while walking.”
Keeping our vigilance and maintaining a certain distance, we chase after Hart, and after a while he said.
“I’m going to pierce the back of your head. If you have something to say, do it.”
“… … The Lord Hart I know is dead.”
“If the Sir Hart you know is me, then yes. i’m dead I am in a state of spirit now.”
Indeed, the reason why I couldn’t feel his presence even when he called me from behind was because I didn’t have a body.
‘wait for a sec.’
At that time, Seo Jun-ho, who was crazy about something, asked urgently.
“So, am I dead? Quacking while sleeping… … ?”
“Kids these days have a lot of imagination. Don’t worry. Because I only invited you.”
Heart arrived at the entrance of the temple and opened the huge door with a low smile.
A long white hallway greeted the two.
“Welcome. The souls who came first called this place that way.”
The destination that anyone who wields a sword can hope for.
It’s called the Knight’s Corridor.
