The Last Adventurer

Chapter 147 – Cold Plains (3)

4.

“Aran’s item has appeared!”

People were surprised by that story.

But that was it.

“Who doesn’t know that?”

“That’s right! That’s why we came to the Elnas Mountains!”

The countless adventurers and outlaws gathered in the Elnas Mountains already know this fact.

“Appeared in the cold plains!”

The same was true for the following words.

“A cold plain? That’s not the back mountain of a village. Do you know how many mountains there are?”

“How dangerous is that place? Did they set up a trap there on purpose?”

He looked at me with suspicion.

“Inside the Mystic Gate!”

The story that came out after that made my doubts grow even more.

“The Bevor Party is coming in!”

“What? Who?”

“Bebor party?”

But the moment that name was mentioned, things changed.

“Mine Adventurer Bevor?”

Abandoned mine adventurer.

It literally refers to an adventurer who survived by venturing through the most dangerous abandoned mines in the Elnas Mountains.

For the adventurers of the Elnas Mountains, it was a title more overwhelming than anything else.

That’s why I was surprised by Bevor’s name.

“You came back alive three times?”

Because he wasn’t someone who came back from the abandoned mine alive just by sheer luck.

Plus, there was one more thing it meant.

“That crazy guy who enjoys taking risks?”

For Bevor, danger is not something to be avoided, but something to be adventured upon.

That’s why.

The moment the Bebor Party was mentioned, the credibility of the story about Aran’s items increased.

Well, then it was worth looking for.

“No, but why did he enter the Mystic Gate with Aran’s item?”

Of course, that alone did not ensure complete reliability.

Still, questions remain.

“I don’t know!”

And to that question he answered.

“That’s just what Skadu said!”

“Skadur?”

“He is the legendary Elnas Hunter?”

Skadoor.

He is called a legend among the hunters active in the Elnas Mountains.

He personally guided the Bevor party to the Mystic Gate.

At the same time, I heard from the Bevor Party.

“When the Mystic Gate closes, tell the world all the stories that have been told here.”

That will.

“Skadur, please.”

And Skadu followed that will and passed it on to the world.

By then, no one had any doubts anymore.

Even if it was just a case, it didn’t matter.

“No matter what, we’re going to the cold plains!”

Now that the adventurers gathered in the Elnas Mountains have decided where to go,

That’s how excited the adventurers were.

Of course, they were the exception.

“Boss, what should I do?”

For the El Palm Party, this was a bolt from the blue.

You paid a high price to find out where Aran’s item was, and that fact was made known to the entire Maple World?

Something that makes paying the price meaningless.

That wasn’t all.

“Isn’t this a request?”

They were commissioned by the Knights of Signus, none other than the Commander of the Lightning Knights.

I decided to bring Aran’s items instead.

But in this situation, isn’t it impossible to grant that request?

That would be breaking a promise.

“How can one be this unlucky?”

The worst situation in many ways.

Of course El Palm knew.

‘It’s a trap.’

This is not a result of bad luck, but a trap set by the followers of the Black Mage.

‘I want the blood of adventurers.’

Furthermore, El Palm also knew what plan the followers of the Black Mage had set this time.

‘So much blood was shed because of Aran’s item that it could form a lake. So much blood that the hero had no choice but to move.’

Bringing the hidden Aran out into the world.

‘I bet you’ve prepared everything.’

Therefore, the things the followers of the Black Magician have prepared for this event are probably not ordinary things.

Most adventurers will have no choice but to face death.

‘No problem.’

Of course, El Palm didn’t have to worry about it.

El Palm said.

‘Unless it’s Zakum.’

At this point, the only Mystic Gate of the green rank that poses a problem to El Palm is the Mystic Gate where Zakum appears.

There was no need to raise any issues in conquering the rest.

There was only one problem.

‘The moment you retrieve Aran’s items with your current identity, the meaning of creating a fake identity disappears.’

The followers of the Black Mage are paying attention to this matter.

At that point, El Palm turned his head.

Then it appeared.

‘That wouldn’t be a problem either.’

The wanted poster board.

5.

The Lion King’s Castle.

The place where the ruler of the Elnas Mountains resides has never allowed an invasion except once.

The secret was simple.

It is located in the northernmost, coldest, snowiest and most rugged part of the El Nas Mountains.

Just reaching the Lion King’s castle was a title for any adventurer, and it was that difficult to get there.

As expected, the Lion King’s castle was not rich.

There is no way that merchants can go there, since even veteran adventurers cannot easily get there.

Also, since it was a harsh land, it was impossible for crops to grow properly.

Raising livestock was even more impossible.

That’s why it was very difficult to eat a proper meal.

“I don’t know how people can live on this kind of food.”

For Queen Areda, who had lived in luxury her entire life, this was something she simply could not understand.

“For something like that, you eat well.”

“I don’t want to die complaining about side dishes.”

Of course, that doesn’t mean I vented my discontent.

It wasn’t that she suddenly became kind or that her personality changed.

“Because the Lion King wouldn’t look upon it favorably.”

The fact that the master of the place she is is none other than the Lion King.

That was the being called Lion King Van Leon.

Even Queen Areda, a wicked woman who enjoyed endless luxury and pleasure and committed all sorts of evil deeds, was wary of her.

That was natural.

“Because once he moves, he causes a storm.”

Up until now, the Lion King has destroyed those he considered his enemies more brutally and definitely than anyone else.

They committed massacre.

“I don’t know how much blood will blow this time.”

Then the Lion King Van Leon moved.

“Ivok, because of you.”

And the one who moved the Lion King was none other than Ivok, himself.

The moment he heard of his plan, Hote, the shadow of King Van Leon, gave his full support.

“The El Nass Mountains are turning red.”

Because of this, an indescribable storm was blowing through the El Nas Mountains.

A storm far greater than what was known in Maple World.

The number of adventurers who had already died was already in the thousands.

“It’s just preliminary work.”

Even that was just the beginning.

“Preliminary work to create a real storm.”

The bloodlust that Lion King Van Leon desired was so great that it could engulf the entire Maple World.

“So how many people do you plan on killing?”

“At least 100,000 people.”

“100,000 people?”

“At least. I think it would be meaningful if half a million people died.”

A vast size.

And that’s how much of a storm it had to be.

“It has to be at least that much for the hero of Polarm to reveal his face.”

Hero of the Troubled Times, literally, to make the Troubled Times into a place for heroes, that much blood would be needed.

“And with that bloody wind, the Lion King will move.”

Above all, the Lion King had no intention of simply causing a storm of blood and ending it with capturing the hero of Polarm.

Evoque knew.

“For revenge.”

What the Lion King wants to destroy with blood and wind is not the Elnas Mountains, but Maple World.

“That is the opportunity.”

This was exactly what Ivok and Queen Areda had hoped for.

“Because the first thing the Lion King steps on after leaving the El Nas Mountains will be the sands of the Nihal Desert.”

Queen Areda intended to use the Lion King’s power to regain her place in the Kingdom of Ariant.

“Next is Victoria Island.”

Evoque also intended to use that power to achieve more than he had achieved.

That is why the two of them are holding their breath in the Lion King’s castle, waiting for the future.

There was another reason why they were waiting for their time.

“After that, El Palm, we will find that bastard and kill him.”

“Of course, that’s right. I don’t know about anything else, but I have to kill that guy.”

El Palm.

The two of them were more angry than ever towards the adventurer.

The one who destroyed everything those two had accomplished.

“If we can’t deal with that guy, we’re dead too.”

But the most important thing was that even if Queen Ivok and Areda were alive now, they were not living beings.

“This is the last chance that Will has given you.”

If they fail to deal with El Palm, Will, one of the commanders of the Black Mage Legion they serve, will ultimately be the one to judge them.

That was when.

smart!

As Queen Areda and Ivok were talking about El Palm, there was a knock on the door and it opened.

The one who finally revealed himself.

“Mr. Hotel.”

Hote, the shadow knight of King Lion Van Leon.

He was also the one who could currently manage everything regarding Ivok and Queen Areda.

“What went wrong with the plan?”

“The plan is going well, Evoque, just as you planned.”

“then?”

“The one called El Palm.”

The moment he heard that name come out of his mouth, Ivok’s eyes narrowed.

“He appeared.”

“That’s right. He appeared in the Elnas market. He hid his identity, but he couldn’t avoid the eyes we had planted on him.”

Evoque wasn’t surprised by that fact.

There was no reason to be surprised.

“His goal must be Aran’s item.”

Given El Palm’s actions so far, there was no way he would just pass over Aran’s items.

‘As expected, you took the bait.’

Furthermore, Ivok desperately hoped that El Palm would not see him and pass him by.

Because the opportunity has come.

“We have to get rid of that guy.”

That is why, at this point, Ivok strongly insisted to Hote.

“By all means and methods, we must never let that bastard live.”

Frankly, that was probably a bit too much of a claim for them to hear.

King Ban Leon gave his shadow, Hote, full authority to carry out the operation to kill Aran, the hero of Polarm.

And Hote was using that delegated authority to carry out his operation, and he had created the perfect trap.

A trap so perfect it can never fail!

A trap that any adventurer must face to face with death!

That’s why what Evoque was saying now could be heard like this.

“I never doubt Hote, nor Lion King Van Leon, nor his abilities.”

I can’t believe your level.

It’s like pointing out the incompetence of someone who is ready to burn down Maple World.

Moreover, Hote had the authority to take the lives of Ivok and Queen Areda at any time.

Those were dangerous words.

“Hey, Evoque, you!”

So much so that Queen Areda’s face turned pale as she listened.

“What are you talking about… … .”

“I understand.”

But Hote nodded at Ivoke’s words.

“My thoughts are similar to those of Ivok. I have researched the man called El Palm. He is more special than his apparent fame and title.”

Hote, he did not underestimate the El Palm Party.

“Especially considering the gravity of this matter, there is no reason to ignore even the slightest risk factor.”

Queen Areda and Ivok felt a chill run down their spines at those words.

Lion King Van Leon, I knew he was a fearsome man.

A being so fearsome that he would burn the world for revenge.

‘It was like this.’

But honestly, I never expected that he would be this cool-headed and this courageous.

That sent shivers down my spine.

Because the most terrifying people in the world are not those who burn with the flames of anger, but those who carry that flame and coldly carry out revenge.

It would not be an exaggeration to say that Lion King Van Leon and his followers were the most fearsome people in the world.

Of course, that didn’t mean the story was over.

The El Palm Party emerged, and it was agreed that it would be eliminated.

“Then how?”

So what remains is a method for removal.

“There is only one surefire way to eliminate adventurers from the Elnas Mountains.”

Hote spoke about it without hesitation.

“There’s a bounty on his head in the back market.”

“A bounty?”

“El Palm, I will put 100 million mesos on his head.”
