◈ Episode 247 How do you know this? (4)
Kim Joo-hyuk, who had been talking for a while with an anonymous man who looked exactly like him sitting at an empty table, soon opened his mouth.
“What? So in the end, there’s almost nothing I can find out even if I talk to you?”
“It’s not that there are hardly any, it’s just that I can’t answer because they ask questions that I can’t necessarily answer.”
Kim Joo-hyuk asked him many questions, starting with why the sword’s name was Bingshin.
But no matter what question you ask, the answer is anonymous.
“I don’t know.”
It was.
Therefore, when he saw Kim Joo-hyuk, who was looking at Unknown with a slightly dissatisfied expression, he smiled and spoke.
“Don’t think too hastily. “As you move forward, you will learn about yourself anyway.”
“I think I’ve already heard you say that a few times.”
“That’s all I can say, so you must have heard it a few times.”
“Then what can you tell me?”
“If you think about it a little, you’ll understand, right? Why on earth did I show up when I called the sword’s name?”
“So all you can explain is your ability with the sword?”
“that’s right. In fact, if this ice sword speaks for itself, I won’t necessarily leave a trace.”
“Can Geom talk?”
When Kim Joo-hyuk asked, Moo-myung nodded as if it was obvious.
“of course.”
“really?”
“Of course, that doesn’t mean I’m really speaking out loud. However, the story can be told in the form of will. But this guy never opens his mouth.”
“… … “Why don’t you open your mouth?”
“Yes, it is clear that he has an ego, so he never opens his mouth.”
“that’s interesting. Are you ignoring me?”
“That’s not true. When you ask to use your abilities, they use them tick by tick.”
“That’s a unique sword.”
As Kim Joo-hyuk spoke, Moo-myeong nodded in agreement.
“It’s a unique sword.”
“Well, then let’s get straight to the point. What is this sword’s ability?”
In response to Kim Joo-hyuk’s question, Moo-myeong spoke straight away.
“This sword has a total of two abilities, one is dispelled and the other is awakened.”
When Kim Joo-hyuk nodded as if to continue talking, Moo-myeong continued to open his mouth.
“First, let’s talk about unlocking. In fact, unlocking is an ability that can be special if it is special, and conversely, if it is not special, it may not be special. “You can lift any seal you want.”
“With how much force?”
“No, just.”
“just?”
“Okay, just. “If you use the power of the sword, you can break any seal.”
“… … “It must be a lot of work to unseal it, but it sounds like a scam.”
At Kim Joo-hyuk’s words, Moo-myeong chuckled and spoke.
“It’s not fraud, it’s the ability to deceive.”
“So, if this sword is stolen by Mandala or others, will it be a big problem?”
“The sword was taken away by Mandala?”
Moo-myeong tilted his head for a moment as if he didn’t understand Kim Joo-hyuk’s words, but then seemed to think for a moment.
“Ahhh. “Is that roughly what happened?”
“Do I need to explain?”
“No, you don’t have to do it. From your words, I roughly figured out what the situation was like outside. It seems like you’ve chosen the next best option. Well, if it wasn’t the next best option, you wouldn’t have come here.”
Nameless muttered that and then spoke.
“Let me tell you first of all, even if that sword is taken from you, the seals elsewhere will not be released, so you can rest assured.”
“okay?”
“I told you, right? That sword has an ego. “You probably can’t use that sword’s abilities unless you use it.”
“I’m sure it’s locked.”
Nameless, who laughed at Kim Joo-hyuk’s water, immediately continued speaking.
“Anyway, the release is once you swing the sword, you will know how to use it, and the second is awakening, but actually, this is a bit simple.”
“What?”
“double.”
“… … double?”
“Yes, twice as much. When you use Awakening, the sword forces your abilities to be exactly doubled.”
“What are the side effects?”
“I’ll be sick for about a week. “During this time, you really can’t do anything, it’s impossible to move your body properly.”
“… … “You mean I’m going to become a vegetable?”
“You can say it’s almost like that.”
“… … “Is it too much of a loss?”
“Still, if you use it in a life-threatening crisis, it can save your life.”
As Moo-myeong said that and smiled, Kim Joo-hyuk asked.
“For reference, how long does awakening last when you use it?”
“Hmm. “It depends on the user’s condition.”
Moo-myeong said that and looked at Kim Joo-hyuk.
“For you now, maybe 10 minutes?”

“… … Likewise, it’s a bit salty.”
Mu-myeong chuckled at Kim Joo-hyuk’s grumbling.
“Anyway, this is the end of the explanation of abilities I can give you.”
“So now all I have to do is go out and use the sword’s abilities?”
“that’s right.”
“… … okay? “I heard from the guide that if you learn something through this sword, you can become a little stronger. Is there anything else you can tell me?”
In response to Kim Joo-hyuk’s question, Moo-myeong thought for a moment and then smiled.
“I guess you’re already strong enough right now?”
“… … “Have you become strong enough?”
“Okay, now you’ve gained two abilities that you can use right away, right? “Isn’t that enough?”
“If you say it like that, it’s still like that… … .”
Kim Joo-hyuk looked a little confused, but quickly nodded.
“If that’s the case.”
“Then this is the end of our story, right?”
“Are you going to send me back?”
“You’re not going to be here forever, are you? “And I’ve also finished my work, so I should get some rest.”
Along with that, the unknown begins to turn into dust from under his feet.
“what?”
“What do you mean, I’ve done everything I have to do, so I’m just going to take a break. Do you know how boring it is to just sit around here?”
Moo-myeong smiled while saying that, and Kim Joo-hyuk looked at him and smiled and spoke.
“Good job.”
“It’s me.”
With those words, the unknown instantly turned into dust and disappeared.
next.
Paaa-!
After Kim Joo-hyuk’s vision turned pure white once again.
“… … .”
After realizing that he was back in the training room, he slowly organized his thoughts.
‘In the end, all I found out was the name and abilities of this sword.’
Of course, what he was trying to obtain was this ability, but since he did not find out anything else, Kim Joo-hyuk showed a slightly subtle expression.
“Well, I still got what I needed.”
Kim Joo-hyuk immediately smiled and held the ice cream tightly.
‘… … I’d like to change the name of this sword.’
While thinking like that.
####
Kim Joo-hyuk, who returned to the labyrinth owner’s office again, opened his mouth after confirming that the guide was the only one left there.
“Where have all the kids gone?”
Kim Joo-hyuk’s question.
The guide smiled and spoke.
“I sent everything out.”
“outside?”
When asked again, the guide explained step by step what he had done in his absence, and before long,
Kim Joo-hyuk nodded.
“If that happens, it’s definitely a good choice.”
“yes?”
“But, does that really happen?”
“Of course. If they’re serious, they might be able to get a name for themselves pretty quickly, right? “That’s it.”
“There?”
“hmm… … “I think this part will be a bit long, so I’ll tell you later.”
“?”
Kim Joo-hyuk tilted his head at the guide’s sudden interruption, but then nodded and spoke as if he understood.
“So now that I have the sword ability, all I have to do is execute it?”
“Well, that’s right.”
A nod from the guide.
“All I have to do is go into the mandala and come out with the legs…” … Right?”
“that’s right. Because if you have a bridge, you can reach Kalpa, which you chose as your next destination.”
“Hmm… … .”
Kim Joo-hyuk is worried.
As Kim Joo-hyuk continued to worry without saying anything for a while, the guide tilted his head as if he was curious and asked.
“What are you so worried about?”
her question.
Despite that question, Kim Joo-hyuk pondered for a long time.
“Hey.”
“?”
“Did you say that there are stronger people than me right now in the place where the group called Mandala is imprisoned?”
“Guys stronger than you?”
In response to Kim Joo-hyuk’s question, the guide said, “Hmm,” after thinking about it.
“Like I said last time, maybe there will be about 4 people?”
“Is there anyone else who can fight similarly to me?”
“… … “There’s probably no opponent who can fight similarly to you, right?”
“No?”
The guide nodded to Kim Joo-hyuk’s question.
“In the first place, as I explained last time, those who belong to Mandala are not good at fighting. However, the more the person above him receives the group’s faith, the stronger he becomes, which is a pain in the ass.”
“Hmm… … .”
Kim Joo-hyuk is silent for a moment at the guide’s words.
“There are four guys stronger than me… … .”
As he mumbled, the guide added.
“But you don’t have to worry too much.”
“The reason is?”
“They probably don’t even know you entered their territory. In the first place, not only is the seal not easy to break through, but the sword you are holding will allow you to secretly break through the seal. in short-”
“So there’s no need to get caught in the first place?”
“yes. Besides, the legs that the mandala has are not that important to them.”
The guide raised his index finger and spoke.
“In other words, if you go in a little more carefully, those guys won’t even know you came out with your leg.”
“That’s right… … .”
Kim Joo-hyuk nodded as if he agreed with the guide’s words, and then seemed to continue pondering once again.
“good.”
He nodded as if all his worries were over.
“How long will it take from now to get to where the mandala is sealed?”
“hmm. “Approximately 10 days?”
“Is there a way to get there all at once?”
At Kim Joo-hyuk’s words, the guide nodded as if it was natural.
“I knew that would happen and prepared in advance.”
As the guide said this, he held out a red jewel that was emitting a bright color from within his arms.
“This?”
“It’s something called Hongdan. It has the ability to transmit to any location according to the coordinates already stamped on the Hongdan simply by infusing it with magical energy. Although it is a one-time thing.”
“But the performance is amazing.”
“of course.”
Kim Joo-hyuk, who was staring at Hong Dan at the guide’s words, asked a question.
“Then is it possible to change the coordinates of this Hongdan now?”
“Change coordinates? Where?”
“Here.”
“labyrinth? Oh, are you really going to walk when you go and use Hongdan when you come back? It doesn’t matter though. However, one thing that must be made clear is that even if you use this Hongdan inside the Mandala, its abilities will not be activated.”
“Because it’s inside the seal?”
The guide responded to Kim Joo-hyuk’s words by nodding his head.
“That’s a bit disappointing, but it doesn’t matter.”
Soon Kim Joo-hyuk muttered.
“I’m going to take care of my leg, but maybe I can give that cheap bastard some taffy too.”
He spoke with a grin.
