I Obtained a Mythic Item

Episode 252 An Alchemist's Circumstances (3)

―Encountered the dungeon's boss monster 《Odukshini》.

“This... is a new type of demon combined with native mythology. Everyone should be careful.”

At the same time as the system message was heard, Kwon So-yul warned the party.

As she said, the witch beast Eoduksini who appeared in front of them was a new beast based on indigenous mythology.

A difficult enemy to deal with as there are very few proper reports to the Society yet.

It was the same case as when Jaehyun faced Orochi Yamata in Japan in the past.

However, there was no one among the members who was familiar with Korea's native mythology. In fact, compared to Greek or Nordic Japanese myths, Korean myths were not as famous.

It would have been better if Kim Yoo-jung was with her because she was good at theory, but the situation was not good right now.

It's a situation where you don't know who the enemy is at all.

It was a time when the three felt deep fear from the unknown.

“Be careful not to look up at him. it's dark That guy is a demonic beast that grows stronger the more people look at him with fear.”

At that time, the owner of the voice heard from the side belonged to someone very familiar.

The three of them all turned their heads and looked in the direction the words had come from.

“CEO Yoo Seong-eun!”

Yoosung is there. There was a guild master of Yeonhwa.

“Others from Yeonhwa are also there. I don't know what happened to get you caught up in the Red Gate, but...”

Kwon So-yul asked, startled.

“Wait a minute! Is this the Red Gate?”

“okay. To be precise, it seems that the dungeon you've been raiding and this Red Gate are connected. It's not good.”

Yoo Sung-eun answered Kwon So-yul, who seemed to be terrified.

A little while ago, she was in the middle of rescuing Yeon-hwa and other guild members who were separated. I saw an open pupil and arrived here as if possessed.

And there she met.

The boss monster of this dungeon. It's dark.

‘It's dark. I already know him.'

In general, Eoduksini is a monster that grows by eating the fear of others, and related information is rarely reported to the society. The monster in front of me right now is of the same species.

The more he fears himself, the stronger he becomes.

A monster that gets bigger the more you look up and gets smaller the more you look down.

Anyone who doesn't feel fear can classify it as a C-class or lower, but anyone can't help but be terrified when they see the eyes that seem to have driven into that abyss.

Because of this, in most countries there is even a rule that at least S-class or higher raiders must gather and subjugate.

Such an enemy is ahead of them.

Even now, the best conditions for him to grow.

‘Many union guild members are trembling in fear. The boy's size continues to grow. Dangerous!'

Yoo Seong-eun thought about it and gritted her teeth.

Nearby, all the guild members he saved were together.

It was because they could split apart and get hit again, and they didn't have enough manpower to save others to go out of the dungeon using warp stones.

After all, all the remaining members of the alliance are people with courage.

It was because he voluntarily remained in the dungeon to save his comrades without using the warp stone to go outside.

However, Yooseong didn't even think that it would become poison again.

“CEO! So what should I do? Do we have to fight here?”

Ahn Ho-yeon asked, but Yoo Seong-eun shook her head.

It's too dangerous to block Eodukshini head-on, who has already become stronger.

Now it was difficult to find another way.

‘If I make hasty judgments here, everyone will die. have to think A sure way to defeat that guy.'

Eoduksini is a very dangerous witch who uses high-level magic. No matter how S-class he was, he couldn't withstand such an attack many times.

The time to worry didn't last long.

In her mind, one thing was certain: how to defeat the Darkness.

The moment Yoo Seong made up his mind and was about to give instructions for this operation.

Aaaaa!!

Suddenly, strong magic power erupted from Eoduksini.

A level of intimidation that even he, an S-class raider, could not handle.

to be creepy

Yoo Seong-eun trembled involuntarily at the fear that ran through her body.

‘This... is a much stronger object than what was reported at the conference.'

She shouted, holding her trembling hand and forcing her to calm down.

“All radars here, follow my orders! You have to spend as much time as possible without looking up at the eoduksini!”

“Ha, but isn’t there a limit to doing that? If I don't kill him somehow...”

“I will kill the Witchbeast. But for now, please follow my instructions. It is a decision to save everyone.”

Yoo Seong-eun calmly answered the other frightened radar's question.

Fortunately, they followed Yoo Sung-eun's instructions well.

In fact, some have already used warp stones to get out of the dungeon, but that's not to blame.

There is nothing more important than your own life. If their judgment was also right, it was right.

On the other hand, Seongeun Yoo calmed down again thinking calmly.

The only way she could think of to defeat Oduksini.

It was simple.

‘A magic that nullifies magic... There is no chance of winning if Jaehyun doesn't arrive here.'

* * *

Chow!

The sword grazed against the weak skin, and blood gushed out.

Brief sparring with wooden swords.

However, the force and tension were on par with formal sparring.

couplets of fathers and brothers. I'm looking down at it through the window of my room.

[You've grown a lot. But you will have to work harder.]

[Yes! Father, thank you for the praise!]

My father guiding the brothers was completely different from what he saw when he saw me.

It was the same that he didn't feel warm, but at least he didn't despise it.

There is no case where they say that they are weak. He is simply evaluated according to his achievements and is rewarded by him based on this.

That was the discipline of the martial arts master Lee family.

I thought while watching their battle.

After all, they are people from a different world than me.

I'm an idiot who didn't even have my father's own skills, but the other two brothers all blossomed at the age of twelve.

It may not be the position of Balak and Yoo Sung-eun, who are praised as geniuses in the world.

No one doubted the talent of the two.

But I am far from them.

Jaehoon Lee and Jaeyoung Lee.

My brothers are walking a different path from me.

and deny my way

They clashed their swords and said it was the right thing to do, arguing with everything I did.

think. Am I a being who has to live in denial from birth?

If not, where is my path.

In an unknown situation, I remembered my father's story.

[Your mother also died because she was weak.]

If you are weak, you will die.

It is said that the father could not be with the mother in her final moments right before her death.

I haven't heard why I just know that every time I talk about my mother, my father's cold, expressionless face collapses.

I pondered for a while.

Actually I knew

This is the illusion that the dungeon shows, and it comes from my trauma.

If I don't get out of this, I can never go back to reality.

even if i can go back It wouldn't be possible without someone's help.

But... Will we continue to live like that in the future?

If you ask me, what answer should I give?

That moment. I don't know why, but my colleague's face came to mind.

reappearance.

His presence, who was the first to recognize my worth, made my heart pound.

can i stop here?

It was as if he was talking to me.

Do I not feel anything when I see my brothers sweating and fighting in the gymnasium?

Are you not willing to change?

“...Oh, no.”

As the thought struck me, I immediately got up and ran down the stairs of the building.

Eventually, the gymnasium arrived. Arriving there, I turned around and asked my father.

“Uh, tell me about your mother.”

At those words, my father's pupils constricted like never before. I didn't miss the fact that his shoulders were shaking.

* * *

“You died because you were weak?”

“okay. Because my wife was weak. So died. It was torn to pieces by the Witchbeast, so that even its corpse was unrecognizable.”

Lee Jae-shin continued with a relieved expression after he vomited.

“I didn't want to lose any more. Because I didn’t want to go through the experience of losing mine again.”

So I decided to be strong.

The same goes for those who stand by my side.

Lee Jae-shin added, unable to control the turbulent magic.

Acting completely contrary to his usual calm behavior. Why?

Jaehyun felt compassion there.

The heart that does not want to lose what is in my arms. where does it come from

If you think about it, the answer is simple.

affection towards someone. As it grows, it makes a person stronger or weaker.

Jaehyun knew this well.

He gave up when he fought Heimdall in the past.

I came back, but there was nothing I could change.

I let myself go, thinking that no one would notice.

But at that moment he heard the voices of his comrades. broke the limits

Lee Jae-shin's method was obviously wrong.

Even if it was for his son, there was no reason to let him down while hurting him.

“In the end, that kind of way will only lead to hatred.”

“That is possible even while alive. Hate and hatred... everything will disappear when you die.”

Hearing Jaeshin's words, Jaehyun felt his breath stop.

father's presence. Lee Jae-sang said that this was always remembered as the worst.

Lee Jae-sang, who was considered to have completely overcome the trauma on TV before returning. Seeing this, what did Lee Jae-shin think?

Would she have been happy that her son had survived

?

“Jae-Sang Lee... He is too weak. Jericho is deep inside... Trusts people too much. Just like my wife did.”

“Your wife and the chancellor hyung may look alike, but they are different people. Do not equate the two.”

“Bear it.”

Lee Jae-shin held Jae-hyun's blade with his hand and placed it on his neck.

He still thought Jaehyun was his enemy. I also thought it was a dangerous enemy who could take my life at any time if I wanted to.

However, Jaehyun sighed as he drew back his sword.

“Be sure to tell the chancellor your brother.”

“...what?”

When Lee Jae-shin asked, Jae-hyun turned around and said.

“The reason I am saving you is because of that.

And I'm not your enemy, so feel free to follow me. Because people need to be saved too. It takes a lot of work.”

Jaehyun shrugged his shoulders and put his hands in his pockets with a calm expression. It meant that I would not fight with you anymore.

Jaehyun knows.

You can put back a father-son relationship you thought was broken.

Jaesang Lee and Jaeshin Lee. The two of them have the power to do it and probably can.

Certainly with a little help.
