The 31st Piece Turns the Tables

Chapter 538

Episode 538:

Snowfall looked at the Golden King Fuki, who had attacked Chiu with an expressionless face.

“Seol…”

Qiu’s eyes grew as big as a flower lantern, and then, realizing that he was in a cold war with a dangerous opponent, he turned his gaze and looked at the Golden King.

Her followers, who covered most of their faces with excessive clothing, shouted.

“You are interfering with the will of the Golden King! “As long as you don’t go crazy!”

“Quickly kneel down and confess your mistake! “Otherwise…”

As the believers chattered wildly, someone in the meeting spoke softly.

“That’s a lot of noise.”

“What! Now let’s challenge the Golden King’s authority…”

“The Golden King thinks so much of you?”

“That…”

The proud believer looked at the Golden King, but the Golden King did not pay any attention to him and was only looking at the snowfall.

Sigh…

Fuki lifted one finger and his two golden kidneys took a step forward.

I’ll be watching the reaction.

Ssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss

…

The knights have mischievous smiles, but their eyes are on their kidneys and their hands are close to their waists.

Seuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuues

his eyes are becoming more intense. Her eyes measure the other person.

What would happen if you were to fight an opponent in front of you?

‘…is it blurry?’

A mesp with a sixth sense that borders on clumsy foresight. And among them, the Golden King, who was gifted with a particularly strong sixth sense, could not easily predict the direction.

The result is blurry, as if there is noise.

Fuki realized.

‘… I guess you didn’t want to know what happened after this.’

Perhaps, if Fuki fights with all her might, the entire Mispa Port will be devastated and half of the expedition team here will die.

Her plans will be disrupted, and it may be a while before the expedition is assembled again.

So, is this current confrontation…

‘Is it worth it?’

Fuki’s head tilted.

“Hmm….”

“Golden King! Punish them!”

“To those who insulted the king, the throne of immortality…”

Fuki looked back at the believers coldly.

“Stay, all of you.”

“But…”

“Who said it was okay to throw up?”

Quarruuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu…

Given her personality, it was not surprising if she burned Shindo’s head with lightning, but since there was no need to see blood here, Shindo was able to save his life.

The believers hurriedly retreat.

The withdrawal was quick because Fuki knew what would happen if he said the same thing twice.

‘Mael… the insidious one.’

– … I’d like to tell you as much as I can, as long as it’s him and not me.

What Mael said passes through Fuki’s mind.

He was confident. The arrogant thought of daring to fit the Golden King into the mold of the expedition deserves to be burned to death, but if there is another king in the expedition, surprisingly, the balance becomes right.

As Mael intended, we are entering a precarious state of balance.

It is truly disloyal and truly evil.

‘… But that’s also why Fuki finds you special.’

Sigh…

Fuki sat down, putting his kidneys back.

“Mael, you kept your promise.”

“… Have I lived up to the Golden King’s expectations?”

“It is true. “This expedition looks like it will be the most exciting time since my new awakening.”

“….”

As the Golden King, who showed his terrifying might, calmly sat down again, the members of the expedition team who had gathered for the meeting also began to slowly regain their strength.

“Look! long time no see!”

“I never thought I would see it here… It didn’t show up in my fortune telling.”

The pudgy wizard Jonet and his curly-haired best friend Santio are waving at the snowfall.

These two were responsible for the Zodiac dispatched to this expedition.

“It’s been a while, both of you.”

“Ahaha! “I already had a hard time because I didn’t have enough drinking friends, but I’m glad I met you!”

As Snowfall spoke with a smile on her face, people who knew John and Santio asked them.

“Who is that friend?”

“Hey, I’m a Libra student…”

“What? Libra disciple? … It looks like it’s much stronger than Libra, right?”

“Hmph… Libra is also different from before. The Zodiac, with only the pillar roots left, is not being ignored because of anyone. “Well, I agree that that guy is dangerous.”

“Hmm… Then can we join us later?”

“I looked at the situation…”

Even though they were whispering because they were elderly people, their voices were so loud that everyone looked at them as if they were embarrassed.

Among those gathered here, one of the leaders of the mercenary group raised his voice.

“Let’s proceed with the meeting first! “No progress is being made because of the commotion!”

“Sure…”

When the Golden King showed his power, he was the one who stayed quiet for fear of sparks flying, but that was the same for everyone in the room, and it was also true that the meeting was not making any progress.

“new year!”

Qiu and Jangdu’s mouths clenched as they watched the snowfall.

Since it had been such a long time since we had reunited, there was so much I wanted to say.

The two were shaking their hands and pursed their lips, but as people around them who were dissatisfied with the slow progress of the meeting were glaring, they had no choice but to tap Kang Seol on the shoulder! Instead, he expressed it in a touching line.

“Let’s have a drink later. “I have a lot to say.”

“… okay.”

Kang Seol sits in the empty seat near Chi-woo and Jang-du.

The twin knights stood behind him and held their ground.

“Then…”

Mael led the meeting.

In the meantime, Kang Seol quickly checked whether the names he had checked on the meeting participation list actually participated in the meeting.

‘…Golden King Hooky.’

This woman may be the strongest among those present here in terms of sheer strength.

Although Kangseol received separate information about Fuki’s participation in the expedition from Mael, it was still quite interesting to encounter a new race called Mesph.

He had so little information about the Golden King that he could not tell whether she would be an enemy or an ally.

‘Well… you just have to be careful.’

For now, the best thing to do is not to be intimidated or arrogant.

Kang Seol took his gaze away from her. Considering Fuki’s presence, it was an overly harsh treatment.

But right now, Snowfall had no time to spare. There was a presence that had to be confirmed before Fuki’s presence.

The real reason he came here.

In fact, for Kangseol, the expedition to Gorgozia was an opportunity that could not be missed, but it was also important to regain the maintenance of the remaining two horses, excluding the horse that challenged the ascension.

When Snowfall left for Gorgozia, if her stay there took longer than expected, it could have taken a long time to regain the remaining two horses.

Therefore, he had to choose between maintaining and recovering his horse and participating in the expedition to Gorgozia, but a strange thing happened, whether heaven was helping him or fate was playing a trick.

The stopped arrow moved.

Both arrows.

…even in the same direction.

There is a chance that they are alive.

Or maybe the immortal was playing a prank.

Snowfall wanted to confirm this fact, but she was stuck on the cursed plateau and could not move easily.

And the news about the expedition delivered from Mael contained surprising information.

– Gwynn and Regriff.

It was definitely on the list.

‘… found.’

And now where he was looking, there were two arrows lined up side by side.

A girl with a funny face and a young boy with a cold face who complained before the snowfall came.

Among them, the girl was looking at the snowfall and grinning.

‘It was alive. … both.’

The girl’s side is Legliffe, and the child’s side is Gwyn. These two were blood-brothers and had their own complicated story.

Snowfall thought they were dead.

Until I met him in person here.

It was a strange feeling.

It feels as if I am the only one among the many people gathered here who knows who the culprit is.

‘… strong.’

As far as Jiang Seol knows, these two are absolutely not weak. When he had to let go of his siblings, they were both powerful, but they were never at the same level as they are now.

‘Maybe that’s what happened…’

Kang Seol looked at the rather large man wearing a robe standing next to the siblings.

A person who appears to be a brother and sister.

‘…who is the author?’

This person also has no information.

Excluding the Golden King, they are the most threatening group.

And the other group…

‘Hmm? The author is….’

Neil the Wire Lion.

He was a strict mercenary leader who often clashed with Mael during the Alkatron expedition.

Sigh…

Neil pretended to know.

If you think about it, this expedition was led by Mael, which means that Neil was also invited by Mael.

‘… That’s how it happened.’

The two used to be enemies, but that doesn’t seem to be the case now.

Kangseol gives the same greeting to Neil and casts his gaze next to him.

‘…Yumira?’

A woman who always stayed with Kibo.

It was unclear how she was doing as they did not hear from each other, but the scars on her face revealed that she had not lived a very comfortable life.

Yumira squinted one eye as she looked at the snowfall.

Relaxed behavior.

Kang Seol instead greeted him with a grin.

Viewers were happy to reunite with old friends.

– By any chance, I came late and today is the reunion?

– Coincidentally, that’s what happened.

– I’ve always dreamed of the love that comes true at a class reunion.

– Today I’m going to have a drink with two gentlemen with a lot of chest hair next to me.

– This is ridiculous! stop!

Perhaps because the snowfall came late, the matters that had been discussed earlier were flowing out of Mael’s mouth, but now they moved on to a new discussion.

“There are several uncertainties with this expedition.”

“Only a few things? “That’s even more surprising!”

“Foot… stop it. “If you keep doing this, you’re going to kill me.”

“So what are those uncertain things?”

Mael said, spreading his fingers one by one.

“The First Expedition cannot know what dangers it will encounter during its voyage.”

“Hmm… That’s what I always do when I’m on a boat…”

“There has been no exact confirmation as of yet what the situation is in the waters near Gorgozia. And if we happen to be attacked at sea…”

“Hmm… I’m sure the Golden King over there will do something.”

People looking at Fuki.

The Golden King made no reply. I just waited for Mael’s next words with an expressionless face.

“Secondly, the expedition team does not know what dangers lurk in the New World.”

“Well… that’s something you have to endure. And again?”

“The third expedition team cannot trust each other because they do not know each other’s true purpose of reaching there.”

“….”

“….”

We can’t trust each other.

That goes for everyone here.

Investigation of living creatures in the New World, geological survey, confirmation of magical torrents, identification of the cause of the disaster two years ago, exploration of ruins in the New World, etc.

It was possible to make up a lie for any reason. In other words, it is possible for everyone to wear a mask.

“Then wouldn’t it be okay to form an expedition only with trustworthy people?”

“In order to head to the New World, the Golden King had to lend strength to the expedition. Since that has already happened….”

“Hmm….”

The Golden King is a dangerous person whose true intentions are unknown. Just by her joining, the expedition team is already carrying a bomb.

“And that brings us back to number two.”

“Not knowing what’s lurking there… I see.”

“The more strong the better.”

“Now I understand.”

Mael’s plan was like this.

A bomb called the Golden King is an essential part of an expedition.

This bomb will clear the road to Gorgozia and will soon reach the land.

The moment it touches the ground, the expedition team’s position changes. There was a risk that the Golden King, the most powerful being, would try to take the initiative and control the expedition.

But what if the expedition team carries multiple bombs?

Powerful people from all walks of life were recruited by Mael, including Snowfall, who is comparable to the Golden King.

If each of them were a bomb, each bomb would not explode easily. Also, the stronger the threat from Gorgozia, the more likely it was that such a situation would continue. There will come a time when we must cooperate because we cannot trust each other.

Snowfall stroked her chin.

‘I see… It must be a bit of a pain in the ass.’

Mael declared.

“Nothing can be guaranteed from the moment the expedition sets foot on the New World.”

“You’re telling me to take care of my body myself. So is this the end of the issues to be considered?”

“For now…”

That was then.

“There is one more problem.”

The robed man who was next to Gwyn and Regriff earlier opened his mouth.

Sigh…

Everyone’s eyes turned to him, who had not opened his mouth the entire time.

“I think this is probably the biggest problem.”

Sseuugh…

A black tattoo in the shape of an X engraved on his face.

Kang Seol’s mouth twisted when he saw the man’s face.

‘… haha.’

Because I immediately realized what the man’s identity was.

“We are not the first to set foot in the new continent.”

“what? “Is that really true?”

“Who crossed over to Gorgozia?”

“A person worthy of that….”

“I can tell. “If I approach him like this, he will soon notice me.”

Kang Seol had an ominous feeling that this expedition would not be easy.

“that? “Who are you talking about?”

“Don’t waste time…”

“Taliad.”

“….”

“What….”

“How can someone who is known to have passed away come back….”

the man says.

“Immortal Thaliad. He came back here. “I’m chasing him.”

“Who are you?”

“There would be no obligation to reveal that.”

“Hmm…”

“If you don’t believe me, listen to someone else’s mouth.”

Snowfall sighed.

‘…damn it.’

The author who is in conflict with Kang Seol’s words is an envoy led by an immortal. Grabo, the one who sticks it on, Visha, who eats faces, and finally… Jabil, who executes.

Jabil the Executioner is the name of the author.

Ugh…

Jabil’s finger pointed at the snowfall.

“You would know, right?”

“….”

“You smell like him. “You know him, right?”

Head turning quickly.

Everyone looked at the snowfall.

Kang Seol grinned as if he had given up.

And he responded humorously.

“I know.”
