The 31st Piece Turns the Tables

Chapter 501



Chapter 501

Episode 501 Kiyiik

Snowfall and the party entered Meyu’s Adventurer’s Association before looking for a place to stay.

Ssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss…

Those who are watching Kang Seol and his party.

Most of them are adventurers.

Since there weren’t that many, there was no need to worry too much.

“Hmm… Hmm… Here!”

Karen jumped out, picked an empty table, and sat down. As if he was suppressing his desire to run around, he repeatedly visited the waiter at the bar attached to the association.

“Please bring me anything that goes with a glass of dark beer.”

Tuk…

Karuna sat down next to her and said.

“Drinking while training is….”

“It’s medicine. “Two drinks please!”

The waiter smiled and answered.

“yeah-.”

Regardless, Kang Seol toured the inside of the association and tried to gather information. Although I came down to the village occasionally to get information, it was my first time coming to Meyu.

Sigh…

Someone approached Karen, who was gulping down a beer that had just come out.

“If you want to sit down and have something to talk about.”

“Hmm… It looks like everything is going well, but I got a good request.”

“It’s legal?”

“Do you do anything illegal? “Then the conversation gets a little longer.”

“Kahaha no. “I don’t have any plans yet.”

“That’s good. “Sit down for a moment.”

“Do as you will.”

Whether Karen was talking to the man with the shaved head or not, Kang Seol was looking somewhere.

‘… hmm?’

A girl who was unusually small for someone staying at the association was toddling around.

“Where have you gone, sister?”

Or something.

“Where did you go, sister?”

“Have you seen my sister?”

A kid who keeps saying the same thing and grabbing the adventurers around him by the pants.

Naturally, Karen was not the type of person to just sit back and watch this behavior.

She placed both hands under the kid’s armpits and made him sit on her lap.

“Tsk… Little lady, what are you talking about? “You mean my sister?”

“Um… that’s the kid she’s taking care of.”

“Eh? “Do you know this kid?”

“You’d better not care. “Because it’s completely tasteless.”

“I’m intrigued.”

“Ho… were you more interested in becoming a hero than making money?”

“Usually they both follow.”

Karuna, who smelled something unpleasant, asked the man.

“You seem to know where the person the child is looking for is.”

“You know, everyone here knows. “The compensation was quite large.”

“Seeing as how you like money and didn’t go… I guess there was some problem?”

“There was. “Kid, what did your sister tell you?”

The kid said hesitantly.

“Just wait… He said he would come after a few nights of sleep…”

“Look at this. It’s no big deal. “Why don’t they tell you to stay in the dorm?”

“i did it.”

“Look at how bold this kid is…”

Karen asked without expression.

“What about your sister?”

“Complex.”

“…what about your sister?”

“Ha… I went out to provide support near Sviren.”

“If it’s Sviren…”

Seuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu…

“It’s a world of darkness.”

Before I knew it, Kangseol came to me, sat down, and said.

“Mr. Ai, I’m surprised! “Why is there no sign of me like this?”

“I’m sorry if I surprised you. “Isn’t Sviren a dark place nearby?”

“Right. That terrible forbidden area that was created two years ago. “It must be a strange story for an adventurer not to know…”

Kang Seol scratched his chin and asked.

“Is it really true that if you go inside the dark sphere, you won’t be able to see anything?”

“Oh, that’s exaggerated. According to the latest information I received, I can tell where my feet are.”

“… I don’t feel very hopeful.”

“Considering that you can’t see the inside at all from the outside, it’s still pretty good.”

“Is light useless?”

“well? One of the guys who went into the dark room and survived for about a day said that it was all useless. “It seems like there are some conditions… I don’t know.”

Snowfall knew at least that the Dark World had been created all over the continent and was gradually expanding its territory.

“Anyway… I went out to support the outskirts of Sviren.”

“The Dark World is a dangerous place. Is there anyone who would put an adventurer there?”

“You know, rich guys try to put their eyes there at all costs. “Most of it is to recover things like people’s property.”

The man answered quite kindly.

“The request I was about to tell you about earlier is also related to that…”

The man was about to reveal his true colors.

“What is the name of the person called Unni?”

“name? “What was it…”

The kid answered instead.

“Nairo!”

“Nairo?”

“huh! “It’s Nairo!”

Kang Seol asked the man.

“Is this person called older sister dangerous?”

“If things go as planned, there will be no danger. It’s just… um no.”

“….”

“I’m anxious because the area of darkness is gradually expanding.”

Karen said, stroking the kid’s head.

“Little one, if you go home, your sister will come find you.”

“Sister, you abandoned me. Because it’s annoying!”

“… what?”

“Because you’re not my sister! Argh!”

The man sighed.

“Stop it, kid. Huh… Well, there are many cases like this. That friend seemed like a nice person. “I thought it was because of the family I had to feed, but it turns out it was just my nature.”

I had a rough guess.

A child who lost his family because of something that happened two years ago. Perhaps the woman named Nairo took her on behalf of the child’s family.

“Please bring me sister, I’m scared… I’m alone.”

Karen turned her head to Kang Seol.

Kang Seol was usually in charge of making decisions for the group.

Then a choice occurred to me.

[You are a king who walks the path of chaotic good.]

[The king of chaotic good cannot avoid choices.]

[Unavoidable choices come.]

[Unavoidable choices come very rarely.]

[Future tendencies . It is a choice that will affect.]

unpleasant sentences that bring to mind a lot of things.

And the choice to put emphasis on it.

[You are the one who protects by destroying. You must answer the request of a little child who is looking for a woman named Nairo who has gone into the dark world. What decision will you make?]

1. The steps of a precious person are heavy. clearly refuse.

2. The author who commissioned this dangerous task is suspicious. Let’s investigate.

3. The girl is still young and it is dark, but the world does not move without cost. Ask for compensation.

4. Let the king be king. Listen to the girl’s request.

The situation was simple, but the feelings were complicated.

‘I’m sure we’ll be given choices like this more often in the future.’

Since inclination was a fairly important value, it seemed that choices would not be so free in the future.

Sigh…

Snowfall pointed the tip of her chin out the window.

“So, when you say that dark sky, you mean what you see in the distance?”

“Ah… it’s Sviren. that’s right.”

Kang Seol grinned.

“… It’s close.”

* * *

“That… amgu….”

“Be careful. If you get close, you will be swept away.”

“I plan to be careful. Because life is precious. “There are people I have to take care of when I return.”

“Oh, that little girl.”

Two carriages were standing on the outskirts of Sviren’s Amgu. One is an input tank that goes into the dark section. The other is a support team that searches and protects the luggage.

Pavel and Nairo were the support team.

“You still look young. Why did you take on the child?”

“Imagine a little child standing alone in a collapsed house with rain falling from the roof.”

“… hmm.”

“I know, I was impulsive. That’s why I’m trying to plan the future.”

“Can we say that coming here was planned?”

“They give a lot of money. So much so that I can survive without work for a while. “It’s not easy to suddenly live with a child.”

“Do I have to earn a lot?”

“That’s right…”

It was then.

Kugugugugugung…

“… What does this mean?”

Nairo looked at Pavel in shock, but Pavel also had no idea why the vibration occurred just now.

The two naturally turned their attention to the carriage in front.

Whisper…

One of the adventurers who was scheduled to be deployed was so shocked that his legs went weak.

“Run… run…”

Then he turned around and started running, touching the ground.

Nairo and Pavel are not that young.

“With age! “Run!”

“This shit….”

They encountered this dangerous situation several times during their adventure. So it’s okay.

Ta-da-da-da-da!

Just run.

You will not fall and you will not look back needlessly.

You will die in a moment’s hesitation and you will live in a moment’s wit.

Their actions were clearly the latter.

Quagagagagagagagagagag-!

The dark sphere was absorbing everything.

Whioooooooo!

The carriage was sucked into the dark hole.

The dark heavens suddenly responded by expanding.

help me.

We have to return alive…

“Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu its her…”

The adventurers were unable to breathe properly and were sucked in.

Cuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu

*

I feel like I lost my footing and fell into deep water.

Nairo widened his eyes and thought.

‘thank god!’

There is consciousness.

I can breathe properly.

All that remains is sensation.

‘Oh… my…’

The moment I saw the world with my own eyes, I was able to immediately understand what the view from this dark sphere meant.

[Entering a place of darkness.]

[Your vision is taken away.]

An invisible message.

When I stretched out my hand, I couldn’t see it. Even the tips of my toes were blurry and I couldn’t distinguish objects that were slightly away.

Nairo, remembering how wide Amgu was and how big the kingdom of Sviren was, closed his eyes again.

And I shed tears.

“Ugh… Ugh… I don’t want to die… I don’t want to die…”

Just as tears mixed with regret and embarrassment began to pour down, someone approached her.

Pak-!

I tried to resist, but I couldn’t.

Fast and agile movements.

“Ugh…”

The intruder whispers to her as she tries to struggle.

“If you want to live quietly.”

A voice I heard for the first time.

But it was strangely stable.

The other person was not embarrassed, was calm, and had consideration in his hands.

As I got older, I straightened my twisted body.

“I heard you. We are moving now. “It’s just a short walk.”

oh my god.

Is there anyone who can be so calm in the dark?

Nairo thought he had found his light.

Squeak…

Boom…

A man enters somewhere and closes the door.

“Sit there and don’t raise your voice.”

“Heo, heo… heo, heo…”

“I’m going to stay close and talk. “The quieter the sound, the better.”

Nairo asked.

“W… where are we going…?”

“What answer do you want?”

“….”

“It’s Sviren. “It collapsed about two years ago.”

“Uh…”

“Who are you?”

Nairo explained the situation.

“That was foolish. “If it were me, I wouldn’t have made that choice.”

“….”

“Dark heaven is … hell ….”

Krar …

there was something that made a deeper sound than the wolf’s crying.

The man grabbed Nairo’s hand.

A signal not to make a sound.

After a while, as the sound faded away, the man spoke.

“It’s a monster. It seems like it heard your voice earlier and came here.”

“Even the monster…”

“If you had stayed where you were, you would have been divided into several pieces by now.”

“Ha… Haha….”

“What’s your name?”

“In my age… you are…”

“I’m Falchion.”

“Falchion… Falchion… the name is… wait… that Falchion?”

“Who were you thinking of?”

“Chief of the Knights of Sviren… Raven Falchion…”

the man said.

“That Falchion is me.”

“If it were all you, here…”

There was definitely something strange about it.

Knowing the way and being calm.

“you! “I can see ahead!”

“… No, I just memorized the route.”

“….”

“This area was a commercial area. There was plenty of stored food. “That’s why I’m still alive.”

With this, all hope was lost.

For a moment, I wondered if I would still be alive like this man two years later.

I just avoided reality to that extent.

“Why…”

“Hmm.”

“How did you survive?”

“Is there anything special? It’s the same reason as you.”

Falchion said.

“I just… wanted to live.”

“Ugh… aren’t you crazy?”

“I have quite a strong faith. In times like this, that was helpful.”

“Is there a God you believe in?”

“Is there anything special about the god of Sviren?”

“Indigenous gods?”

“that’s right. Crow Shintonga.”

“Did it help?”

“To the point where I don’t go crazy?”

“Shall I believe it this time too?”

“I don’t really recommend it because you haven’t even listened to my prayers for two years.”

Nairo said, hugging his knees.

“Before I came here… I saw a flock of crows.”

“It’s the best luck in Sviren.”

“So… I wasn’t really worried…”

“Luck is of little use to a dull person. I was thinking of coming here….”

“But….”

“Shh….”

Kaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!

Crows cry.

Falchion spoke in a suppressed voice.

“Damn… why are you crying here…”

“Sound…”

“You’re crying so loudly…”

“Do you still believe in Tonga like this?”

“Close your mouth and hold your breath if you can. “Let him quietly eat the crow and go away.”

Caw!

Kaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!

The two of them lean against the wall nervously as a crow cries.

Crrrrrrrrr…

The monster from the dark heavens has arrived.

Kwazijijijik-!

There was silence followed by some terrible noise.

Swoosh…

Swoosh…

I could still feel the presence.

Falchion placed his knife in Nairo’s hand.

Meaning to be armed.

It seemed that the monster had probably noticed that they were here.

Nairo tried to take a deep breath, but his heart was burning with tension.

Perhaps if a monster breaks through that door, Falchion and she will die.

It was then.

Kkeeeeeek…

What came over with the door….

“I want to ask you something.”

It was light.

It was vision and light.

Surprisingly, Nairo opened the door and saw what the man who came in looked like. What does Falchion look like?

The man had a crow on one shoulder and was holding the monster’s limp corpse in his other hand.

“Oh… Tongashi….”

Boom…

Falchion, who had always acted cool-headed, hung his head and shed tears.

“I never… doubted… even for a moment.”

Nairo checked the message that occurred to her.

A message that you cannot believe even when you see it with your own eyes.

[Join those who do not wander.]

[Temporarily restore vision.]

[If you move away from those who do not wander, you lose vision.]
