Episode 822
“thanks.”
Raon stroked the white hawk’s head once and untied the letter tied to her ankle.
‘Is it a white whale…? .’
A white whale was drawn on the front of the letter, a symbol that only Ariel, the comedian and owner of Moby Dick, could use.
There was only one reason for Ariel to send him a letter right now.
‘Soul stone.’
When Ariel came to Sieghart and left after being insulted, he asked her for information about the soul stone, and it seemed like he had sent it to her now.
“Whoa.”
I opened the neatly folded letter, suppressing my expectations as it might have said that the soul stone had not been found.
-Well, what does it say?
Lars also flew through the air and blinked rapidly as if he was curious.
‘I heard you can see the sea?’
Raon crumpled the end of the letter and lowered his eyebrows.
-ocean? What kind of sea suddenly?
‘I think the soul stone is by the sea.’
Ariel’s Moby Dick deals not only with actual information, but also information that can be obtained through fortune-telling.
It wasn’t accurate, but seeing as she wrote that she could see the sea, it seemed like she had read her fortune.
-Can you believe something like that?
Lars narrowed his eyes as if suspicious.
‘Aris’s fortune is accurate. It’s not 9 out of 10, it’s 10 out of 10.’
Raon lowered the letter and shook his head.
-Well, that much?
‘okay. It is not detailed as it is not actual information, but the content has never been wrong. It is said that he can read heaven’s secrets.’
As far as he knew, the comedian’s fortune had never been wrong.
Of course, given that you do not know your future, it was not a good decision to trust unconditionally.
‘First of all, we should first consider the possibility that this information is fake.’
If the comedy emperor was attached to Oma instead of Ohuang, he might try to lure him into the sea by bringing out false information.
‘but… .’
This is very unlikely.
Since the full-scale war has not yet begun, no one can know the extent of Ohwang-oma’s power.
Given her personality, it was impossible for her to focus on comedy in a situation
where she couldn’t see a single inch ahead.
‘In other words, this is real information.’
Raon raised his head with confidence.
‘If it’s the sea, there’s someone I can contact.’
Aris, who leads the pirate ship Cheongpung, naturally became friends with the people of the coastal city of Aikar while hunting the light dragon Kaibar.
Lastly, although Garam lives in the river, I felt like I could get help in many ways
because there is a garami that can move freely in the sea.
‘First of all, I should say thank you to Ariel.’
Even if it is a mutually beneficial relationship, it is right to maintain the minimum level of courtesy. I frowned as I tried to write down my thanks and reward for the
information.
‘This… .’
-why? What’s going on again?
‘It is said that an unknown force is also looking for the soul stone… ?’
Raon swallowed dryly as he looked at the phrase written at the end of the letter.
-Could it be that someone spread the rumor?
‘That could be so. Maybe not. Actually, it’s not embarrassing.’
Information about the soul stone was released not only to the Five Emperors, but
also to the vassal family and neutral forces, so it is not surprising for outside forces
to intervene.
‘An important thing is… .’
That’s who it is.
If you want soul stones to sell to Sieghart, you are welcome. You can also give a thousand gold.
However, if they were looking for a soul stone for their own use, it seemed unlikely that the situation would end well.
Perhaps because of the ominousness, goosebumps rose up my spine.
-It’s really difficult.
‘yes.’
Raon clicked his tongue briefly, wrote a letter to the Emperor of Hugeuk, and tied
it to the leg of the white hawk.
“Please tell me well.”
I stroked the hawk’s wings and sent it flying back into the sky.
Wow.
The white hawk nodded its head in an arrogant manner and soared into the sky.
Seeing it soaring through the sky without a sound, it appears that it is Cheon-eung, the Emperor of Hugeuk’s favorite spirit creature.
“I need to report this.”
Raon watched Cheoneung until he turned into a white dot and disappeared, then
headed to Gajujeon.

Paaaaang!
Cheon-eung spread his long wings to return to his owner as quickly as possible.
As I was looking down at the world and heading towards the central part of the continent, as the nickname ‘King of the Sky’ suggests, a small blackbird flew in from
behind.
Cheon-eung normally does not hunt or eat during his duties.
Since he is not an animal, but a spirit creature, he overcame his bird of prey instinct and tried to let him go, but a baboon flew in at an unimaginable speed and caught up behind him.
hey.”
The young bird followed next to him and flapped its small wings.
“Stop right there.”
A frivolous human female voice flowed from the beak of the bobcat. As a spirit being, she could only understand human speech, so she let out a sigh.
The emotion that comes after embarrassment is anger.
He is the king of the sky. He could kill not only eagles but also most monsters by
easily tearing them to death, but he was annoyed that a bean-sized bird was trying to stop him.
Kiaaak!
Cheon-eung glared at the young bird and twisted its beak.
I could kill that bird with just one extension of my claws, but I’m on a mission right now.
Since returning to the owner as quickly as possible was a priority, I decided to hold back my anger and let it go.
“Not only are the feathers white, but the head is also white? “If you don’t want to
explode, raise your wings.”
However, Baeksae seemed to not even know that he had barely survived and instead spoke even harsher words.
Kiaaaaaa!
Cheon-eung eventually couldn’t bear it anymore and turned to the right. It was when he raised his claws and tried to tear the body of the bird apart in one go.
Gooooooo!
An enormous amount of energy began to radiate from the bird, which had less than half its wings.
The claws that had been advancing stopped by themselves and my whole body trembled.
I felt like I was facing a natural enemy I had never seen in my life.
“Is this guy?”
A pink air current flutters next to the bird. Another woman’s voice flowed from the cloud-like area, and her presence was greater than that of the owner.
“So you have to stand when speaking.”
A bobcat came up next to me and tapped my head with its small wing.
Rather than killing him, his feathers trembled because he felt like he was about to
be killed.
“Give it to me.”
The bird furrowed its eyebrows slightly and flapped its wings asking for the paper tied to its feet.
Kiaaak!
Cheon-eung shook his head left and right, shouting absolutely no way.
“Ah, kids these days don’t listen to words.”
The bird lightly spread its wings and clicked its tongue.
“You’re calling me 10 times because I know I’m going to get hit once?”
She fluttered her wings as if loosening her fists and glared at Cheon-eung.
“I see. “It’s something I couldn’t even imagine.”
The pink airflow also lowered its voice deeply as if it were angry.
The feathers were plucked out on their own and began to fall due to the eerie energy of the two women.
Sigh… .
Cheon-eung weighed his loyalty to his master and the fear in front of him, shaking his wings, but eventually, unable to overcome his fear, he stretched out his ankle.
“It will happen soon. “We are not bad people.”
Babpsae stroked Cheon-eung’s head and pulled out the letter.
Wow… .
Cheon-eung lowered his head and trembled his beak. I felt like I was seeing a child caught by a back alley gangster.
“What does it say?”
The pink airflow approached the bird and asked.
“Thank you. “They say you have to pay the price?”
Babsae frowned as she looked at the letter.
“What value? And thank you? I haven’t heard anything like that either, but who dares… .”
The pink air current emitted more intense energy waves as if it were angry.
“okay? “I heard it often?”
The bird flapped its wings, laughing at the pink air currents.
“I heard you thank me?”
The pink airflow glared at the bird and let out a cool voice.
“I heard it every day. “I heard it while looking at the stars together.”
The bird sang a mocking song and laughed.
“Of course you can’t do it. “It is right for me to die here.”
“That’s what I’m going to say!”
The birds and the pink air currents began to fight, creating intense waves.
Even though no mana was blooming, sparks like lightning burst out from both sides.
Sigh… .
Cheon-eung, the king of the sky, was unable to run away or back down due to the letter being held at Baopsae’s toes, so he just cried mournfully.
Good!

Raon went to see Glenn and told him all the information he had obtained from the comedian.
“The comedy scene is definitely trustworthy. But it’s the sea… .”
Glenn sighed briefly, thinking that the scope was too broad.
“Even so, we have to find it.”
Raon raised his head, folding the letter from the comedian in half.
“Please send the Gwangpungdae. “I will definitely find the soul stone, even if it means searching the entire coast of the continent.”
Since we couldn’t leave the Gwangpungdae alone any longer, the best way was to
carry out the mission together.
“hmm… .”
Glenn looked at Raon carefully and shook his head.
“Unless you know who the force is looking for the soul stone, it is dangerous to use the Gwangpungdae alone.”
He shook his head, saying now was not the time to move.
“but… .”
“I’m not saying it can’t be done. Just wait for now. “Because there’s a guy I sent a
message to.”
“Who is that?”
“Aris.”
Glenn reached out to Aris again, and when he heard back, he put down his hand
and told her to move with her.
“hmm… .”
Raon closed his mouth.
‘There’s definitely nothing like that.’
Aris is strong, but he is also a person who travels the entire sea on a ship.
If she helps, the search for the soul stone will be much easier.
“All right.”
Raon said he would wait and bowed.
“This is a very important moment for you. “Concentrate on your training until the
mission comes.”
“I’ll keep that in mind.”
I could feel Glenn’s sincerity in his short words. She nodded her head deeply and
left her throne room.
As I was about to return to the 5th training ground for training, I felt a familiar presence behind Gajujeon.
‘This energy… .’
I narrowed my eyes and climbed up to the wall of the head training hall.
The person in the training hall was Rimmer.
He was swinging his sword with his training uniform soaked with sweat, and I could feel his unwavering, firm belief in his green eyes.
It felt like I was fighting for my life with someone rather than training.
‘I thought you were playing?’
After completing the concentration training, Rimmer and Dogoe were given a break. I thought I would go to a gambling house and have fun for a while, but I had no
idea that I would be practicing my swordsmanship here with such earnest eyes.
Come to think of it… .’
The unit owner also grew steadily.
Rimmer was originally a Grand Master, but was demoted to Master due to an injury to his Dantian. He regained the status of Grand Master through artificial Dantian
and his own efforts.
‘That’s not something you can just do.’
No matter how talented Rimmer is, there is no way he could have reached that position without effort.
He just didn’t show it to anyone, but it seemed like he had been practicing steadily.
-It’s hard for a baby to catch a poop form.
Lars wrinkled his nose. However, he seemed to like it since he didn’t call it an earwax.
‘I know. It doesn’t suit me.’
Raon smiled slightly and nodded. He watched Li Mer’s training for a while and then quietly left the training ground.
‘I shouldn’t lose either.’
Although his current level is higher than Rimmer’s, his experience is far superior
to him.
I felt like I had to keep trying to avoid being overtaken.
‘So… .’
-No way!
Lars quickly lowered his eyebrows.
‘You haven’t even said anything yet?’
-You’re going to ask me to eat Nadin bread today too!
The guy shook his head and said no way.
‘You’ve become more perceptive now.’
Raon looked at Lars and laughed.
-sense? What a sense! As I said before, you don’t have the right to use the word ‘smart’!
‘Not to that extent… .’
-That’s it!
Lars slapped Raon on the back of the neck, telling him to come to his senses.
-The King will tell you. Originally, humans were through relationships with other
people… .
Raon returned to the annex, nagging Lars about how to live as a human.

A quiet pier.
The waves riding the wind gently rocked the sailboat with the pirate flag on it.
“Why won’t this open?”
A middle-aged man with his forehead exposed frowned as he looked at the pure
white envelope lying on the deck.
“Only the owner can open that.”
The woman with her eyes covered by a red eyepatch shook her head.
“master?”
“Probably the captain.”
She shook her head, thinking that only Captain Aris would be able to open the letter.
“And now, why isn’t our captain coming? It seems like more than two months have passed… .”
The middle-aged man looked up at the bright sky and frowned. More than two months ago, Aris received information that traces of his son had been discovered and
entered that port with most of the personnel, but even now he has not returned.
Although he is a person who does as he pleases, I was worried because it was not
common for him to be unable to contact me like this.
“I don’t think you need to worry.”
The woman with the eye patch calmly shook her head.
“How can you not worry! Two months! “It’s not common for it to go this long without contact.”
“No, I’m not saying that… .”
“Such cold-bloodedness! “How much did the captain do for you!”
The middle-aged man frowned, saying he was a heartless person.
“No matter how strong Aris and Lavawin are, they are not invincible! There are many dangerous situations… .”
It was when the middle-aged man shook his head.
“Ah, I’m so tired!”
With a deep voice, Aris jumped up onto the deck.
“Iknow, right. “I didn’t know it would be this hard.”
Lavawin got down next to him and sighed.
“uh? “Sir, captain?”
The middle-aged man’s chin trembled as he looked at Aris and Labawin.
“Uh, when did you come?”
“When you say we’re not invincible!”
Aris frowned and slapped the middle-aged man’s bald head with his palm.
“Keuok!”
A middle-aged man screamed while holding his handprint-marked head.
“Thank you for your concern, but I am invincible.”
Aris laughed and shook her head.
“Ugh… .”
The middle-aged man chewed his lip as he looked at the woman with the eyepatch.
“Why didn’t you tell me!”
“So I told you there was no need to worry.”
“ah… .”
He finally recalled the words of the eyepatch woman again and let out a sigh of relief.
“What happened to you?”
The woman with the eye patch passed the middle-aged man and approached Aris.
“Ah, I was fooled.”
Aris frowned and shook her head.
“You were tricked?”
“okay. “There was no trace of our son.”
“Then what took you so long?”
“I entered the dungeon, but the time axis was different.”
She laughed and said that although she left the dungeon in a week, two months had passed.
“Nothing happened here, right?
Aris leaned back on the deck and nodded.
“Nothing happened to us, but we received a call from Sieghart.”
“Sieghart? Leave it alone. “That old man will say something strange again.”
“It was definitely strange stuff. Looking for a soul stone… .”
“Soul stone?”
She tilted her head as if she didn’t know anything about the soul stone.
“What is that… .”
As Aris was about to ask again, the white envelope that had fallen on the floor suddenly floated up and came in front of her eyes.
“oh. It’s a black market special mail. “It looks like my father is in a hurry.”
Aris smiled and opened the envelope. She frowned as she read the contents of her envelope.
“I heard that when the sun and moon come closest to each other, the passage to the sky closes, lost souls dwell in nearby objects, and do you know about the soul stone that takes on a rainbow color?”
She wrinkled the bridge of her nose as if she had no idea what he was talking about.
“Who finds something like this?”
“Well, that was also written in the letter we first received.”
The middle-aged man bowed his head, smoothing his red bald head.
“I’ve traveled all over the continent, but I’ve never seen anything like that… .”
“Iridescent?”
Lavawin lifted the fake eyepatch and blinked.
“Have I seen that before?”
“… … .”
