Episode 197 < Erosion. (2) >
One.
A rectangular cross section glowed in my left hand.
Skill cards that we are now familiar with.
However, I was not familiar with the color of the card.
‘purple? Purple?’
The card color is determined by the skill level.
The same color from class F to class C. They are ridiculed for being the color of so-called shit. The skills that most hunters have are shit-colored. There are countless hunters who shed tears because they don’t even have this.
Classes B to A are silver. Skills commonly called jackpots fall into this category.
From S level and above, it is golden. Because my colleagues around me are so talented, it’s actually difficult to even talk to hunters with golden skills. There are no [purple] cards anywhere.
‘It’s probably not an error… ?’
I glanced at the letters engraved on the front of the card.

[Macheonjinbeop (魔天陳法)]
Rank: TBD
Effect: This is a formation based on the Demon Heavenly Demonic Art. This formation embodies an image shared by the casters. The more casters participating in the formation, the more proficient the casters are in the Demon Heavenly Art, and the clearer the images shared between gazers, the more powerful the formation becomes.
This strategy has not been proven effective!
You were the first to create this skill. From now on, you must show the potential of Ma Tianjin Beop. When sufficient data accumulates, the level and description of this skill will be revised.
※Currently, the skill level is not set.

‘iced coffee.’
Now I understand why the card is purple.
A kind of trial version. Skills that have not yet been tested seem to have a purple color.
‘There are cases like this… … .’
-It’s awesome!
I was surprised. Bae Hu-ryeong pushed her head in and screamed right next to her ear.
‘Wow. ‘What is it all of a sudden?’
-This is my first time seeing a purple card!
Bae Hu-ryeong’s eyes sparkled.
-Hey, look at this too. As expected, you did well to become a ghost and not be quiet!
‘It’s just an unusual color, so why make a fuss… ?’
-It’s a zombie. Usually, my head spins so fast, why am I like that? Isn’t it strange? Would you change the color of the symbol for a trial version whose effectiveness has not yet been proven to purple? It’s usually white.
what.
It was strange to hear the story.
‘Iknow, right? Purple is not set as the default color. normally.’
-I know yeah.
‘Hmm.’
Perhaps the owner of the tower likes purple?
It was when I was thinking about the owner of the tower whose face was completely hidden in the dark.
“Abby.”
“Oh sorry. “I was lost in other thoughts for a moment.”
“Okay.”
Uburka shook his head. My right hand was still being held by Uburka.
“More than that, I need to explain the current era to Abby. After all, there must be a reason why Abby has come down now. “Something big is happening on the continent.”
“Big deal?”
“Yes. “Maybe we should say it’s a big deal for the world, not the continent.”
Uburka grinned, saying something enigmatic.
“It is said that a new continent has been discovered.”
At that moment, the quest was updated.
[A 35th floor quest is given.]
The following was written in the name field of the quest window.
[Age of Exploration].
2.
New continent.
A new world was discovered 24 years ago.
“I stayed in the snowy mountains for over three hundred and fifty years, but occasionally stopped by the city to eavesdrop on worldly affairs. “It is said that a Saegi tribe captain saw land that was not on the map.”
The Saegi tribe takes the form of a mermaid.
They mostly enjoy living in rivers, but there are always special species.
A certain Saegi tribe wondered what the end of the sea would look like. He happened to have the ability to realize his curiosity and even had the courage to risk his life on his ability.
“Please support small people.”
The Saegi captain gave a speech in front of the admirals.
“The designated tribe has ‘ji’ in their name, so they are entitled to command the land. The fairies are also desirable, so they deserve to dominate the gold coins. However, water is only the territory of the Saegi tribe, and there should not be a single route where we cannot know its depth and current!”
It was a speech without any logic, but the admirals splashed around here.
“I will provide you with one boat, one vampire, and forty boatmen.”
And so began the legendary voyage.
What can I say? As you live swimming in the water, does your way of thinking become freer? It seems like the Saegi tribe is responsible for all the unusual things in this world, including the development of Ja-yeom (黨鹽).
“What happened to the captain?”
“I achieved my dream. “I discovered the new continent 16 months after setting sail.”

Uburka said calmly.
“And on the way back to return home, he was eaten by a killer whale in the sea.”
no.
That’s so pitiful.
“It happens surprisingly often. Ugh. “The leading cause of death among Saegi people is crocodiles, second is killer whales, and third is drowning.”
“She’s a mermaid, but she’s drowning?”
“I don’t know the details either.”
The mystery deepened.
When father and son were both in trouble.
“You guys… . transition.”
A sigh was heard right away. It was the Black Dragon Master.
She turned her head back and looked up at us.
“Transfer, using someone as a driver. Could you please just stop chatting amongst yourselves? transition. Doesn’t it make you a little angry if you listen quietly from the side? transition.”
The reason the Black Dragon Master recited teleportation in between sentences is because we are currently on the instantaneous transfer bus.
I was held in Uburka’s huge arms. And the Black Dragon Lord was in my arms. Thanks to this, we were able to stably repeat the instantaneous transfer.
Wouldn’t it look like a matryoshka or kangaroo from a distance?
“no way. Instead, we provide a comfortable ride.”
“You may be comfortable, but I am uncomfortable. transition. Do you know how cumbersome it is to cast skills without stopping? transition.”
“We are like family. really. Now that we’ve gotten closer, can I call you sister? “No one has called me sister since I entered that tower, but I want to be friends with the Black Dragon Master.”
“You’re the type of person who gets into endless trouble when we get to know each other… . transition.”
The sea stretched out beneath the feet of the three of us.
Yes. It’s the sea.
No matter where I turned, I couldn’t see land or even a rocky reef. The endless blue continued all the way to the horizon. We were literally crossing the middle of the ocean, heading for the New World.
“Not my sister. you hate me.”
“Then shall I call you Her Majesty? “Black Dragon Queen.”
“Our Death King is really fun.”
The Black Dragon Master smiled.
There was a time when I got slapped on the ears for a while.
“I won’t make fun of you from now on… .”
“Good idea. transition. If you want to change your title, call me sunbae. transition. “I will allow you to do that.”
“Ah, that’s nice. senior. “It’s okay if you call me Confucius too.”
“…….”
The Black Dragon Master did not respond to my words. Just turn his head and look ahead. With eyes devoid of emotion, the Black Dragon Master chanted ‘transfer’. Silence came naturally.
While overhearing the sound of waves crashing below, I checked the quest window once more.

[Age of Great Exploration]
Difficulty: A-
Mission Objective: Exploration! adventure! A new continent has emerged for the seven races. The pioneering of new sea routes by the Saegi tribe has now attracted other races.
‘I want to live somewhere else, not here.’
In every era, there are people who dream of a different world. A desire that has never been fulfilled, a miracle that has never been met, and an excitement that has never been felt. Humans board a ship, leaving behind everything they could not obtain in this life on the other side of the sea.
However, the New World is a new world only for the seven races.
Other people are already living on that land. Currently, discord is about to explode between adventurers and natives! Perhaps a one-sided massacre may occur.
Is it an invasion? Is it coexistence? Either that or deportation?
Seven races are in danger of annihilation. You guide them!
※However, if delivery fails, one or more races may be destroyed.
+
massacre. Extermination.
Ugly words were stuck in my eyes.
This is why we are rushing to the New World.
“Are children massacring indigenous people?”
“I don’t know. transition.”
The Black Dragon Master said.
“But there is a possibility. Even in the outside world, massacres often occurred when new sea routes were pioneered… transition. Although the humans of this world hope not to do so, it is transference. “Children will not grow up the way we want.”
“I want to prevent massacres for any reason.”
“I’m rooting for you.”
“Ugor.”
Uburka suddenly opened his mouth.
“There’s something over there.”
Uburka pointed beyond the horizon. I couldn’t see anything. But as soon as I heard what the child said, I strengthened my eyesight with aura.
Something was floating in the open sea.
“ship?”
It was a huge ship.
I furrowed my eyebrows.
“Black Dragon Master. No, senior. There’s a boat over there. “Please stop by.”
“why?”
“I can see the ship, but there is no crew.”
“transition.”
It seems that the Black Dragon Master has also captured the ship. She moved to the deck in an instant.
By the time we stepped onto the wooden plank, we were already feeling a sense of discomfort.
“There are people…”
The Black Dragon Master looked around.
“… … “Is everyone sleeping?”
The sailors were asleep on the deck.
Sailors were made up of several races. Most of them were noble people or Saegi people, and some pure people were also mixed in. However, regardless of race, all sailors were extremely thin.
I walked up to the helmsman, who was lying at the helm of the ship, and gently grabbed his wrist.
“It’s malnutrition.”
He turned his auror around and examined every nook and cranny of the sailor’s physical condition.
“You are showing symptoms of extreme dehydration. I think I’ve been starving for three to four days. hmm. There are no injuries and my head is fine… .”
As I learned Macheon Shingong’s Galsabigeom (渴死瘡劍), I became more susceptible to dehydration. Just in case, I diagnosed other sailors as well, but the symptoms were all the same. Malnutrition. Severe dehydration.
and.
“No matter how you look at this, it’s simply a state of sleep.”
The sailors took a deep breath and breathed comfortably.
I wasn’t fainting or fainting, I was just sleeping.
“Did you try waking him up with an auror?”
“Yes, I am stimulating it on purpose, but it doesn’t wake up. “It’s really strange.”
“Just wait.”
The Black Dragon Master came to the side and placed his hand on the sailor’s body. A black aura flickered from her fingertips.
Soon after, the Black Dragon Master narrowed his eyes.
“… … “You’re not cursed.”
“Surely medicine? “Aren’t we taking drugs as a group?”
“There is a good chance. However, the symptoms are too weak to be considered effective. I can’t feel any trace. There may be a medicine unique to this world that I know nothing about… .”
The Black Dragon Master was worried.
Meanwhile, Uburka was dragging crew members from all over the ship.
Unusually, the captain was a Sanwa tribe member. When the Sanwa people come into contact with salt, their skin deteriorates or, in extreme cases, melts, but they come out to the sea. It must be an incredibly strong heart.
“It’s definitely suspicious.”
Uburka twitched his nose as he put down the Sanwa captain.
“It seems like these people were working right up until they fell asleep. “It seems like everyone suddenly fell into a spell while working.”
“All at once?”
“Ugor.”
A total of 32 sailors lay down on the deck and fell asleep, as if they had forgotten about their present life.
As expected, the mystery only deepens.
“… … Would you like to go into a dream and come out for a moment?”
After much thought, the Black Dragon Master made a suggestion.
“A dream?”
“huh. It would be safer to use [Personal Possession], but that would cost 1000 points. “I shouldn’t waste my points in places like this, so I’ll use [Appearance in a Dream].”
It is a remark that reveals a flaw in one’s personality. When planning the guild budget, you will probably save every penny and distribute it, this senior.
I’m the type of person who debates whether to go to a dessert cafe or buy dessert at a convenience store, but ends up buying dessert from the convenience store after considering cost-effectiveness.
‘Raviel is the type of person who rents out the entire dessert cafe she likes.’
They probably also have dedicated seats.
Be cool.
I habitually thought of our duke and then nodded.
“great. “That would be the fastest.”
“Yeah, then I’ll go first…” … .”
“You worked hard climbing mountains and crossing the sea. You took pictures all over the land, sea, and air. “I will do this.”
“… … “I can’t hit you because you act strange sometimes.”
“You are a senior, so you should take care of yourself.”
I opened a civilization store.
[Purchase ‘Appears in a Dream.’]
[100 race points are consumed!]
[Your current race points are 7012.]
And I used the item on the Sanwa captain in front of me.
Paaaaat!
My vision was agitated.
The bathtub lid was opened and my eyes were spinning like swirling bathtub water. One breath. Two breaths… . As my breathing became urgent, my sense of time became paralyzed. At some point, I closed my eyes.
After a while.
– Confucius.
Someone whispered in my ear.
-Open your eyes. Confucius.
I opened my eyes.
In front of my nose, an unidentified woman who looked exactly like Raviel was sticking her face out.
“…….”
hmm.
I quickly scanned Raviel’s white neck and long fingers. No necklace. No wedding ring.
There’s nowhere to spend the money anyway. Before climbing the 30th floor, I couldn’t see the wedding ring I had spent half of my money on.
-Hehe.
I looked around a little more just to see if it was really possible.
One of Duke Ivansia’s bedrooms.
I was lying on a soft bed. The woman with Raviel’s face looked down from above as if pounced on me. She looked at the flower stand next to the bed and saw the chair, but there was no golden skill card anywhere.
‘okay.’
Completed situation assessment.
-Where are you looking so intently?
The woman in front of me stroked my cheek.
Eyes that closely resembled Raviel were shining softly.
For a moment, I was debating whether to accept this as a shitty situation or a shitty situation, but fortunately, after 0.1 second of thinking, I came to a conclusion.
-Tomorrow is a holiday. My love. A fun time after a long time….
“야 이 개새끼야. Where are you criticizing me with Raviel’s face? Do you want to search?”
The woman’s hand suddenly stopped.
“Give me 10 seconds. If you don’t get out of my body and kneel down right now, I’ll destroy your very existence, whether you’re a god of this world, an apostle, or some damn forsythia. Buy it when they say something nice. I kindly don’t count time. “Kneel down within 10 seconds.”
-…….
The woman’s face hardened.
-how… … ?
The woman looked like she couldn’t understand.
-Have you fallen asleep yet? no. That can’t be possible. I am completely in a dream. By what means….
“10 seconds have passed.”
-what?
I smiled brightly.
“Let’s take a hit first.”
etc,
