. Return of Heroes (2)

I will grant you the 'Heavenly Named Stone'.

...!

At Reinhardt's words, an earthquake occurred in Jinhyuk's pupils.

Lung, Your Majesty?

Isn't that thing only the descendants of the imperial family can use?

Impossible! This is unacceptable!

I agree, too. No matter how heroic they are, that's absurd!

Instead, they all shouted in unison.

I'm sorry, but I've already made a decision.

...Is that really your Majesty's will?

Weinstein's eyes narrowed coldly.

Yeah... that's what I mean.

Then we can't do it. It's Your Majesty's will, so we'll follow it, but I hope you won't regret this.

Weinsteln slowly rose from his seat. Then the nobles who followed him also rose from their seats.

It was a rude reaction, but at the same time it was proof that the duke's power had already surpassed the imperial power.

'There is no other thin ice plate.'

but.

Everyone had to react like this.

The 'Heavenly Named Stone' is a kind of communication window.

Right, where you can chat with the divinity of the upper floors.

If you think about getting 'sweet potato', an ancient species when you meet with the Egyptian divinities... .

You can imagine how absurd this reward is.

'That's great. No, this is absolutely crazy.'

The divinities are so fickle and unpredictable, I'm not sure if they'll respond.

'If they like them, the price must have been shocking enough to completely destroy the existing balance.

Jinhyuk's eyes were stained with greed.

sure.

It's too much of an award for us. We just did what we had to do.

The words that came out of his mouth were far from his true feelings.

No. Thanks to you, I was able to prevent the harm of innocent people, so I have to do this much. I'm sorry I couldn't do more.

Once again, thank you for the castle.

uh My hands and feet are trembling, and thorns are growing in my mouth.

Still, you have to take good care of your last facial expression.

Because this was the law of adult social life.

I have some work to finish, so as soon as it's finished, I'll guide you directly to the designated seat.

Reinhardt's eyes turned to one side as if he remembered something.

And. Sir Abraham?

Yes, Your Majesty.

Can you escort me? I don't think there's any need for several guards if you have a sergeant.

Abraham, the Grand Swordmaster and aide of Weinstein.

It was quite surprising that Reinhardt named him.

This was because he was not an ally, but could be an enemy at any time.

Especially now that the Duke has been outspokenly hostile.

I will follow the emperor.

Abraham, who looked at Reinhardt and Jinhyuk alternately for a moment, then nodded.

a brief break.

Jinhyuk was assigned the room he had stayed in last time.

After much effort, it is a proper place with soft beds and warm food.

Theresa, Cheon Yuseong, and Pesis are in the opposite room, so we can meet again in a little while.

Ha. I'm finally getting some rest. I'll close my eyes a little bit.

Alice immediately buried herself in bed.

By the way, does that guy think well without washing?

Ah! Sister. Me too. I sleep with you.

Yeah, come here.

Andria dug into Elise's side.

mosquito!

At the same time, even the sweet potato rolled around on the bed.

Perhaps he liked the soft bed, while making a pleasant rustling sound.

Lord, I'm going to check out a man named Abraham. No matter how much he says he is a double agent, there are many places where it is difficult to lower the vigilance.

When Andria and Wolyeong, who returned from work with Namgungcheon, joined forces, the room became a very Dotegi market.

Everything is fine, please go to another room.

There are rooms all over here, so why is everyone coming here and making a fuss?

Whoa.

A deep sigh escaped Jinhyuk's mouth.

Still, the noisy guys will be quiet for a while, so you can take a look at the items you got from Anthrad.

Jinhyuk chururuk 4 items in the subspace inventory.

'Fox Bead'.

'Sword of Flame'.

'1009 Cookbooks for the Bad Eaters'.

'The Fountain of Oblivion'.

All of them are high-grade Artifacts with unusual aura.

'1009 Cookbooks for Evil Connoisseurs' will come in handy when attacking the 15th floor where the Wailing Witch is... .

Now it's time to take a look at the 'Sword of Flame'.

hot and

The hot energy spread along the fingertips to the top of the head.

[Sword of Flame]

Acquisition Difficulty: SS

Attack: 13,500

Weight: 82kg

Durability: 10,000/10,000

Special Effect: Intermediate Demon Clan Antrad's beloved sword, 'Fire Attribute'

When used with a unique ability or skill, increases damage by 10% for 1 minute. Also increases resistance to all fire attacks by 50% for targets with swords.

Amazing, Great.

The attack power itself is also huge, and the two options with special effects were even more deceptive.

Of course, it specializes in both offense and defense, and it is hard to believe the percentage written on it.

'The only drawback is the weight, but there is a way to solve this anyway.'

You can either solve it through Old Spirit Orun, or you can dispose of it at a high price through Rick.

It must have been worth the call, so it was like sitting on a cushion of money.

Jinhyuk this time picked up a sparkly marble inside the transparent glass.

[Fox Beads]

Acquisition Difficulty: SSS

Description: A marble that enables hand prints as a model 'Nine-tailed fox' when worn. The biggest feature is that the appearance changes, and movement speed and various skills are additionally created. (However, the owner cannot be changed, only women can own it.)

Abilities optimized for speed.

There is only one person that suits this.

Andrea. Can you come over here for a second?

Yes?

I have something to give you.

Jinhyuk-nim... to me?

Andria quickly got out of bed with her eyes wide open.

It looks like a squirrel that hibernates and runs to find sunflower seeds.

Grab this with both hands.

Yes!

When the marble touched Andria's hand, a bright light erupted.

huuuuuuoooooooooooooooooooo

[The handprint is complete.]

[The power of 'Nine-tailed fox' is blooming!]

Andria's appearance began to change slowly.

Its pierced ears and nine white tails fluttered softly.

This is the form of a nine-tailed fox completely recorded in legend.

It was a long way from what was described as terrifying, though.

Wow...

Andria burst into exclamation as if curiously.

Beyond simply changing her appearance, the quality of mana flowing out of her body has changed.

If you adjust the mana, you'll be able to put it on and then release it and adjust it.

I really... thank you. Jinhyuk-nim. You gave me such a precious thing...

You've worked hard to do the tasks I've asked you to do? You don't have to feel burdened because it's given as a reward.

It means carrying a lot of pressure.

Don't forget that you will continue to suffer in the future.

If you fill in the fetters of grace like this, you will be able to use the power of Andria and the 5th floor to your heart's content later.

great.

Now that the fox beads have been resolved, only the long-awaited Hidden Piece remains.

Jin-hyeok, who had left Andria, who was so moved by emotion, checked the liquid he was seeing for the first time.

['Eyes of Gluttony' sees through the target!]

[Fountain of Oblivion]

Acquisition Difficulty: Unmeasurable

Content: Enables 'massive memory manipulation' for all players around the world and the general public outside the tower. The duration of Distorted Memories depends on the completion level of Well of Oblivion (current completion: 7%).

Unbelievable .

Not just one person, but the memory of all players in the world and the general public outside the tower can be manipulated at the same time.

I didn't even hear of such an item with a Treasured sword.

In an instant, dozens of cases in which this item could be utilized came to mind.

It was a treasure of infinite value.

'The rewards obtained this time are nothing to throw away.'

This is enough to be afraid of overflowing fortune.

Even if you get hit by a meteorite while walking on the road, you shouldn't make an unfair sound.

However, he did not express his uncontrollable excitement.

Because the most important reward still remained.

'Heaven's Named Stone'.

The time to face the higher divinities is not long now.

Hidden place of the empire 'Emperor's Tomb'.

This was the place where the successive emperors rested, and it was also a forbidden place that was completely protected by numerous barriers and magic.

Jinhyuk looked inside the tomb with eyes full of emotion.

The tombs filled with relics each of which were endowed with 'color' were like seeing each other's eyes.

'I've come a long way, too. Come here and see.'

I prided myself on being the best in the past, but I couldn't enter this place.

Not only did he fail to change the emperor's mind, but he did not exert as much influence as he does now in the struggle for supremacy in the middle class.

'In the beginning, there was no colleague who could overcome the difficult difficulties together.'

But now it's different.

There were quarrels, but there are people I can trust and work with.

what It's not a bad feeling.

Not to walk alone on the road that used to be lonely.

'More than anything else, I can grow beyond the past that I thought was the limit.'

At that fact, my heart started beating with a pleasant sound.

at that time.

Oh.

In Jinhyuk's eyes, a gorgeous Fragment statue came into view.

A marble stone statue of about 2m in size, modeled after an angel.

Of course, what really caught my attention. It was the colorful jewels scattered here and there on the fragment.

That is the 'named stone in the sky'.

It's a huge item. I can't see the end of mana...

Teresa swallowed her dry saliva.

...it sure is a fun toy.

Elise's eyes also narrowed.

This, you see all the rare things.

" "

Pesis and Cheon Yu-seong also stared intently at the designated stone in the sky, as if it was hard to believe.

Since I've killed three Demon Clans, I'll give you three of them. But keep in mind. The nominating stone in the sky is only a medium that allows you to communicate with the higher divinity. To attract their attention, you must have the right qualities. that you should have.

Being able to get help from divinity is definitely a huge advantage.

However, to the ignorant, they are only a cursed relic that can be ridiculed by the divinities, or even angered in the worst case.

I'm a curse?

At the word of the curse, Teresa's expression darkened slightly.

No matter how attractive the point of contact with divinity was, it was not a performance that I wanted to get even though I wanted to be cursed.

Of course, don't worry too much. If you are not qualified, you can immediately return the reserved seat to the angel statue.

That's I'm glad.

A small sigh could be heard everywhere.

There are a total of 37 designated seats remaining.

Jinhyuk, who was counting the number of designated seats, slowly opened his mouth.

Then Reinhardt's lips trembled slightly.

Just by mentioning the number 37, as if Jinhyuk knew what he was going to say.

That's right. There are exactly 37 left.

From the past to the present, there are a total of 38 blood relatives of the Reinhardt family.

However, 37 designated seats remain.

That's right.

It means that only one person has been recognized by the divinities through the designated seat.

Does this mean that none of us deserves to be succeeded in his predecessor's footsteps?

Reinhard I, who ruled the empire.

He was the emperor who showed overwhelming force and iron-blooded rule, and he was an absolute person who possessed absolute power that no one had ever surpassed.

Because of this he was chosen by the divinities.

With the protection of the divinities, he swung his sword for the sake of the Empire's peace until the end of his life.

However, that golden age was too short.

This is because, after the invitation, there was not a single person who could continue the authority of the imperial family through a designated seat.

So, you were going to give us that precious nomination? Because those who defeated the Demon Clans might be recognized by the divinities through the nominations?

Heh heh. You're quick-witted as well. That's the reason.

You must have made a decision because you had something in mind, but what are the nobles going to do? Obviously, there will be a lot of people who have doubts about the imperial power.

The decision the emperor had made a few hours ago was nothing more than providing a cause to officially move the nobles.

The forces that were active under the water will reveal their molars in earnest.

It's Hwanggwon...

Reinhardt pondered the word slowly.

The memories of the lonely emperor flashed through the wrinkles that felt the years.

I'm more important to my people living in this empire than anything like that.

wanted to keep

This empire established by our ancestors.

The lives of the people living day by day in the name of peace.

I dedicated my whole life for that, and I thought that I would have no regrets even if I burned this one body for that.

But, it's too much for me.

Hwang Kwon is just a scarecrow.

Already, the Duke of Weinsteln was in possession of the core of tax and national defense, the yolk of power.

A few loyalists remained, but that was not enough to turn the tide of war.

With each passing day, the gap widened more and more, and I had lost all hope, so I lived in despair in the dark for too long.

As you feared, there will be a major uprising soon. Moorim agreed to a truce because he had finished talking with the nobles.

You knew...

He said he was closing his ears and eyes, but it must have been that he wasn't completely unaware.

Nevertheless, to have done this would mean that Reinhardt made a decision on his own.

When I first met you, that was the first thought I had. Hope may not have completely disappeared. And my vague expectations have now turned into certainty. Please, save the Empire.

The emperor who lost everything.

Please save everything.

There was no pretense mixed with the heavy voice of sincerity.

I .

But that was the moment Jinhyuk was trying to answer.

[All barriers are disbanded!]

[The defense magic is neutralized!]

[Invaders have entered the Emperor's Tomb!]

Red status windows appeared one after another.

someone has come

into this grave.
