The Tutorial Is Too Hard Chapter 410 – Side Story Chapter 30 – The Boy and The Sword (4)

Chapter 410 Side Story Chapter 30 – The Boy and The Sword (4)

“Ahbooboo.”

[Yes, warrior.]

Ahbooboo replied.

It was a very bright voice.

Maybe it was because he had been chatting for a long time, so I could even feel the freshness in his voice.

“Isn't the story a bit long?”

[Oh…….]

I thought that he was telling an anecdote about when the God of the Sky was a human.

It was a mistake.

This chatterbox Ahbooboo was recounting the life story of the God of Sky as a human being.

[Should I stop? … ?]

Ahbooboo asked.

He wouldn't be the first to say he'd stop chatting.

He seems to know that the story was too long.

“No, just a little more.”

In my mind, I decided to just rest here today.

I've already wasted enough time.

It wasn't bad to take a day off at all.

More than anything…….

[Haha, are you curious about the next story?]

Yeah, I was curious.

So I wondered what would happen to the old man who had quit being the king.

I kept telling him to cut off the conversation in moderation, but I thought it would be a bit disappointing if it ended here.

“Just tell me he found the rabbits.”

Because I'll have to listen there.

If I didn't hear that story, I thought I'd keep wondering and remembering it.

[Yes, he did. Hoho.]

Ahbooboo replied with a low smile.

It was an oddly arrogant laugh.

I felt bad.

[Okay, let's start the story again.]

I thought as I listened to Ahbooboo's voice.

It was the idea of ​​the God of Sky and Ahbooboo.

I thought that there was a separate Ahbooboo who was trapped in the tutorial, and the genuine Abutz that the God of the Sky had as his divine object.

But listening to Ahbooboo's story, I changed my mind a bit.

Their relationship was very deep.

To put him in the tutorial, retrieve it, merge it, and treat him as an object.

I continued to be bothered about the strong affection Ahbooboo showed whenever he spoke of the god of the sky.

The two were so close.

But Ahbooboo was in the tutorial.

I came up with a hypothesis.

Maybe the genuine Abutz does not exist.

“How do you read it?”

The coachman, who had received the nameplate, asked.

“High seeker.”

The coachman nodded his head.

The coachman, who returned the nameplate and told him to sit in the back, asked the old man one more thing.

“Are you an adventurer?”

The old man asked why he thought so.

“Because it's a weird name.”

The old man had nothing to say.

The sword giggled and laughed.

“Why are you having so much fun?”

The old man under the pseudonym High Seeker asked the sword.

[I told you so. Because such a name is tacky. It's old-fashioned.]

The high seeker wondered whether his pseudonym was tacky.

It didn't feel that way at all.

Had he spent too much time in the royal palace?

So, did he become an old man who couldn't get the sympathy of his younger friends?

He tried to question it, but quickly brushed it off.

The mental age of the sword making fun of him was over 100 years old.

It's not an age issue.

The high seeker looked at his own shortened beard.

It was rough.

The effect of cutting his beard was amazing.

He had been growing his beard for decades, so people didn't recognize him even though he had only cut his beard short.

Maybe it's because he's wearing travel clothes, not fancy clothes.

The High Seeker, who changed his appearance and prepared his fake nameplate, was heading east of the continent.

As a child, he always walked around saying he would save money, but as an old man, the high seeker decided to compromise very little.

Instead of walking on his two feet, he paid for the carriage and rode it.

It was comfortable.

The coachman who had an extra income was also happy.

[You would have died if you had gone west instead of east.]

“The West?”

The high seeker chatted with his sword while sitting in the carriage.

There was no one other than the high seeker in the car behind the carriage, so he could talk comfortably.

[I wish I had gone to the hall at the western end of the continent.]

Hall at the western end.

The high seeker knew well which place the sword was talking about.

“Are you talking about the temple of goblins?”

The sword once told the high seeker about the place where he studied while he was a human.

[Hmm. If you go there, you will learn a lot.]

said the sword.

It was difficult for the high seeker to agree frankly.

Of course, the temple of goblins, the Shaman Hall is an honorable place that many warriors consider a holy place.

But the high seeker didn't think he could be taught by anyone else.

If it's about shamanism.

[Don't be conceited. You're a superhuman, that's the story of the human world.]

The boy who got old gave the sword a scolding for making a fuss.

It was a beautiful valley.

It would have been even more so if the valley water had not been stained with dark red blood.

The high seeker pulled the Imoogi's(*) head out of the water, trembling.

The Imoogi inhabiting this valley was famous.

Even as the High Seeker wandered the continent in his childhood, he had never heard a tale of this giant serpent before.

It protected the humans who came to the valley and protected the surrounding villages from landslides and floodings of the valley.

Instead, it was praised as a spirit that protects the mountain, and it was offered human gratitude and various meats through the annual thanksgiving festival.

It was a symbiosis between creatures and humans.

It was a fairy tale and a beautiful story.

That was until the news came that the Imoogi was going crazy with blood and devouring all living things near the mountain.

While heading to the east of the continent, the high seeker heard the rumor and came to the mountain.

As rumored, there was not a single creature larger than a human finger on the mountain.

Humans, wild animals, and even small-sized bugs were completely devoured.

The high seeker, who cut off the body of the blood-crazed giant serpent and pulled his head ashore, asked before killing the Imoogi.

“Why?”

The Imoogi's eyes turned to the high seeker.

The giant serpent that had its body separated and exhausted all its magical powers and stamina, but still had life attached to it.

The whole reason

“You don't understand.”

The Imoogi spoke human words.

The humanity felt in that voice made the high seeker even more unpleasant.

“What.”

“I had to eat. I had to. You don't understand.”

After all, is it a tragedy that the monster's appetite has created?

Couldn't the wolf and the sheep be friends forever?

Although coexistence was possible

“It's not like that, stupid human. I had to become a god.”

“…God?”

The giant serpent uttered words that were not expected at all.

“The world is awakening. We must be gods in case everything returns to the arms of the Great Mother. So I ate it up. More power, higher rank.”

“What…”

Are you talking nonsense, the high seeker who was about to speak hastily stopped.

The giant serpent's eccentricity is not over yet.

“There is a cause, but no effect, there is emotion, but no affliction. A world is coming where there is no death but no life. In preparation for that, I must ascend to the throne.”

They were completely incomprehensible words.

“What the heck is it that you have to become a god?”

“Things that shine as the only value because they have no value. To be accepted into the world as one, you have to become a god. Because only gods can perceive it.”

After finishing his words, the giant serpent opened its mouth and ran towards the high seeker.

The giant serpent's head was cut in two and it died.

Now, in the deep mountain valley, there was only the high seeker alive.

“…what did it mean?”

[Well, maybe the apocalypse.]

The sword answered.

The end of the world.

Did the giant serpent want to become a god in order to survive it?

He couldn't figure it out

[Let's just say that the strange snake went crazy and died.]

said the sword.

But the high seeker couldn't get past it.

While he was sitting on the throne, he had heard and heard a lot of news.

There have been a number of anomalies that have increased significantly over the recent decades.

The first was that many divine beings were being born.

As far as the high seeker knows, three objects have already attained the level of a demigod.

It was a surprise.

The birth of a demigod was a miraculous event that only happened once in a thousand years, not ten years.

The second was that such divine beings wanted fear, not respect, and carried out slaughter.

[Did that happen?]

“Yes. Right now, I believe it was similar to when the Great Demon was summoned from the Underworld that we defeated in the past.”

There were an increasing number of beings who wanted to gain greater power and dignity through massacres, human sacrifices, and biological experiments.

It was a chaotic world.

The High Seeker also said that it was the right choice to abandon the throne and leave the palace.

He still had a lot of work to do in the world.

“What is the plateau like in the Blue Mountains?”

The high seeker asked.

[It's an amazing place. You can't go up there by just walking.]

“Is it too high?”

The sword said no.

[Of course, it's high, but you can't go up there without a guide. It is forbidden to enter unless you're rabbits.]

As the high seeker listened to the sword's explanation, he thought he could just climb up.

It made him curious.

The old man, out of his palace, was slowly regaining the spirit and challenge of his youth.

[If there is sugar on the way, let's go buy some.]

“Why do you need sugar?”

[Because the rabbits there like sugar]

They were unusual rabbits.

As the sword said, the high seeker bought sugar little by little every time he stopped by the village while heading east.

After traveling, heI was able to arrive at the front of the blue mountain range.

There was a small village at the start of the Blue Mountains.

The high seeker went straight to the mountain range without stopping by the village.

As he followed the sword's guidance as he climbed the mountain, he found a strange stone staircase.

[If you climb these stairs, you can go up to the plateau. Now, let's wait here for a few days and wait for the guide to meet us.]

“Do I have to wait?”

[Hm. The rabbit will come to meet you. Because humans cannot climb alone.]

The high seeker started climbing the stairs without waiting for the rabbit to meet him.

The sword laughed at that sight, but did not stop him.

The high seeker had confidence.

He was able to jump even the highest wall of the continent with one step.

Even in the great desert of the West, if there was enough water, he had the stamina to cross without a break.

He was no ordinary human.

So the high seeker went up the stairs.

He climbed the stairs, climbed, climbed and rested a bit.

After a short break, the high seeker climbed the stairs again, climbed again, and climbed again…….

“I can't do it.”

[Right?]

The sword scoffed hard at the high seeker.

Hearing the giggles of laughter, the sword seemed genuinely happy to see the foolishness of the high seeker.

It has been a week since the high seeker started climbing the stairs.

Considering his pace, he should have reached the end of the sky, not the top of the mountain.

The high seeker turned back and started going down the stairs.

In just two hours he was able to get back to where the stairs started.

“…it was a real waste of effort.”

[See, listen to me.]

The high seeker waited for the rabbit guide at the end of the stairs.

But the guide did not come.

As advised by the sword, he sprinkled some sugar in front of the stairs and waited, but the guide did not come.

[…What is this? I sprinkled sugar. But why doesn't anyone come out? This can't be happening.]

The bewildered sword murmured.
